The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty

The sun was rising, and the mist between heaven and earth was beginning to dissipate.

The flags of the Ming army covered the sky, and the soldiers of the three armies stood solemnly under each battle flag, forming a majestic and orderly military formation.

At this time, the entire battlefield was solemn. Except for the whistling wind and the faint sound of galloping from the sky, there was no other noise.

On a gently sloping hill, the originally dense trees had been cut down. The hillside was full of gullies, and the soldiers were running back and forth, as if they were still making the final defense arrangements.

On the top of the hill, the word "Tang" on the big flag was clearly visible with the wind.

Standing on the top of the hill, you can also clearly see the whole scene.

Tang Hao was wrapped in armor and stood on the high platform on the top of the hill. His eyes moved between the military formations, and finally, they were fixed on the sky.

In the sky, the faint sound of galloping has become clearer and clearer.

Not long after, a faint black line appeared in the sky.

Like thunder, the surging iron cavalry came in overwhelming numbers.

Dayan Khan Batu Mengke led all the living forces of the left wing, a total of 100,000 troops, and attacked brazenly.

Da Da Da!

The thunderous sound of horse hooves stopped suddenly, and Dayan Khan Batu Mengke looked ahead, looking around at the towering military formations not far away, and his brows furrowed.

Having fought on the battlefield and experienced hundreds of battles, Dayan Khan Batu Mengke was naturally able to see at a glance how powerful an army is.

This Ming army at the moment... is definitely not to be trifled with!

You don't even need to think about it to know that it must be a strong enemy!

Thinking of the various news about this Ming army before, Batu Mengke's brows slowly emerged with a solemn look.

Tang Hao, the Marquis of Zhongshan in the Ming Dynasty!

The trusted general of the young Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao!

He turned the originally weak Beijing army into an invincible army!

He suppressed the rebellion internally and destroyed Japan externally. Ten thousand soldiers were rampant all over the world. Some time ago, he personally led ten thousand soldiers from Liaodong to Daning, then from Daning to Kaiping, and now to Hetao!

Dayan Khan Batu Mengke was very knowledgeable. He naturally understood that this Ming Zhongshan Marquis wanted to rebuild the northern border defense line of the Ming Dynasty. He left no chickens or dogs and no grass along the way. This was a stern warning to the grassland people not to plunder and harass the Ming Dynasty again, otherwise the grassland tribes that were massacred by him would end up like this!

Ming Zhongshan Marquis!

Dayan Khan Batu Mengke couldn't help but sigh.

Originally, he had unified the entire Mongolian grassland with the assistance of Mandu Hai Khatun.

If there were no rebellion by the damned beasts like Yibula and Mandulai, then he, the Great Khan of Mongolia, could have gathered the entire Mongolian force to march south to the Ming Dynasty and enter the Great Wall, just like the Wala Taishi Yesen did in the past, besieging the capital of the Ming Dynasty and even destroying the Ming Dynasty!

If he really did this, then he, Dayan Khan Batu Mengke, would be the true lord of the Great Mongol revival, and re-establish the supreme status of the Golden Family on the grassland!

However, no one expected that the damned lords of different surnames like Yibula and Mandulai would kill the Deputy Khan of Jinong and launch a rebellion, causing the Great Mongolia to fall into division and civil strife again.

And suddenly a Zhongshan Marquis appeared in the Ming Dynasty, who came out of nowhere to suppress the court and intervened in the separatist war between the left and right wings of Mongolia!

When he thought of this, Dayan Khan Batu Mengke was extremely angry.

These greedy and cunning Ming people have no moral bottom line!

"Darhan, go and ask in person why the Ming people are treacherous?"

"They have clearly formed an alliance with us and promised not to interfere in the Mongolian civil war. What does this mean now?"

Darhan is the chief of the left-wing Khalkha tribe and the son-in-law of Dayan Khan Batu Mengke. He married Princess Tululetu, the only daughter of Dayan Khan Batu Mengke, and is therefore loyal to Dayan Khan Batu Mengke.

After hearing this, Darhan did not think much about it. Soon he personally led several riders to gallop towards the Ming army.

"The envoy sent by the Mongolian prince?"

After hearing the report from the soldiers, Tang Hao chuckled and said, "Bring the people up!"

Soon Darhan was disarmed by the soldiers and brought to Tang Hao. In fact, they did not need to do this at all, because there might not be anyone in the world who could kill Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao head-on. Huoshai is the best example.

"The Marquis of Zhongshan of the Ming Dynasty!"

"I am the chief of the Khalkha tribe and the son-in-law of the great Dayan Khan!"

Oh, he is still a big fish!

I have to admit that Dayan Khan Batu Mengke still has some courage. He dares to send his own son-in-law as an envoy, and he is not afraid of being chopped by himself.

Tang Hao looked at this Darhan with a smile and said: "What do you want?"

"My father Khan ordered me to come and ask why the Ming army wants to intervene in the war between the left and right wings of my Mongolia?"

Darhan asked without humility and directly stated his purpose.

Tang Hao did not waste words and pointed to the land in front of him.

"This is the Hetao Plain!"

"Shuofang in Zhou Dynasty, Dingxiang in Han Dynasty, Helian Bobo Tongwancheng, "Chi Lechuan" in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, "Fengzhou Beach" in the Five Dynasties... In other words, this place has always been the territory of my Central Plains Dynasty!"

"So, it is not that I led my army to intervene in your Mongolian civil war, but that your Mongolian army is invading my Ming territory, so I naturally have to intervene!"

These words are well-reasoned, and Dalhan, a Mongolian warrior, really has no way to refute.

In fact, during the late Warring States period, King Wuling of Zhao extended his territory to the Yinshan Mountains and established Yunzhong County, located in the east of the Tumochuan Plain. After the Qin Dynasty unified the Central Plains, it moved 30,000 households to the Hetao to garrison the border and set up Yunzhong and Jiuyuan counties. This was also the beginning of the Hetao Plain being directly under the Central Plains Dynasty.

For the Central Plains Dynasty, controlling the Hetao could use the Yinshan Mountains as a barrier to resist the threat from the northern nomadic peoples and ensure the safety of Guanzhong and the Central Plains. Therefore, the Hetao has been a battleground for military strategists since ancient times, and it has also become the main place for exchanges and collisions between the grassland peoples and the Central Plains peoples, and the grassland culture and the Yellow River culture.

Only in the Northern Song Dynasty was the Hetao occupied by the Western Xia and Liao Dynasties respectively, and then the Mongolian cavalry rode the world. It was not until the early years of Hongwu that the generals Xu Da and Li Wenzhong eliminated the forces of Tolebe and Kongxing who occupied the Hetao, and drove Kuokuo Timur to the base camp of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, Karakorum, that the Hetao Plain was successfully recovered.

Unfortunately, the later generations were unfilial, causing the Hetao to fall again.

Tang Hao wiped the sword in his hand and spoke indifferently.

"After you Mongolian tribes occupied Hetao, you used it as a base to attack left and right, south and west, and frequently harassed the military towns along the border and the hinterland of our Ming Dynasty, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil. This is an indisputable fact!"

"So, go back and tell Batu Mengke that as long as he abandons Hetao, my Ming army will not interfere in your civil war!"

"If not, then we can only fight a battle, and we will know the right and wrong after we fight a battle!"
