Chapter 497
Baode took a deep breath. He understood the truth, and now they regretted it a little. If they didn't delay, they probably wouldn't have faced such a situation.Li Dingtian is a dandy, and his personality has some flaws, that is, he can only brag about himself, but in fact his level is average.
In normal times, he might be able to handle it, but at this time, he was facing the most powerful Mongolian cavalry in the world at that time, which was a powerful military force capable of defeating basically the entire Asia.
Li Dingtian hesitated at this time, and it was precisely because of Li Dingtian's hesitation that it brought him disaster.
Because not long after, the spies in front rushed over to report.
"General, something is wrong..."
The spy said in a hurry.
"what's going on?"
Li Dingtian frowned and said, he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"The Mongolian army... The Mongolian army is coming!"
The spy said out of breath.
"what?"
Li Dingtian felt his brain buzzing, this is definitely not good news.
Because the Mongolian army was going to cross Helan Mountain, it was originally pure infantry, but because it occupied Dingzhou City, and the defenders of Dingzhou City did not have time to ride their horses when they fled, so now the Mongolian army is in vain.
Mongols are born knights. They deal with horses all day long. As long as they are on horses, they can ride. It can be said that as many war horses as there are, they can become as many cavalrymen.
Now Temujin led an army of [-], of which [-] were cavalry. Temujin took the lead and led [-] cavalry to charge towards Li Dingtian's army.
"How many enemy troops have come?"
Boyd asked softly.
"The overwhelming arrival, it seems that there are at least 1 cavalry."
The scout hurriedly said.
"At least [-] cavalry?"
Boyd asked, frowning.
The scout nodded, and said with some embarrassment;
"There are more than [-] cavalry and there are more infantry than cavalry..."
The spy said with some embarrassment.
"How far is the enemy army from our army?"
Boyd asked immediately.
"The enemy army is less than thirty miles away from our army."
Thirty miles, for the cavalry, it should be able to arrive in half an hour.
"General, the Mongolian cavalry is coming soon, please make a decision early!"
Baode said to Li Dingtian.
"Only ten thousand cavalry?"
Li Dingtian asked.
"The infantry was thrown far away by the cavalry, and the distance between the two sides was twenty miles..."
replied the scout.
"Hahaha……"
Hearing this news, Li Dingtian couldn't help laughing up to the sky, and said:
"It's God helping me. The Mongolian army only dispatched 1 people. It's really overestimated. Do you really think that there are no one in our Xixia army, and dare to directly lead [-] cavalry to fight. "
Hearing what Li Dingtian said, Baode hurriedly said:
"I'm afraid that the Mongolian army has cavalry in front, and the infantry behind will soon follow. If we get entangled at that time, it will be very unfavorable to us..."
This is also what Li Dingtian was worried about. He stomped back and forth and said:
"This Mongolian army abandoned the infantry and drove straight in. Its leader is definitely a self-important person. For us, this is definitely a good opportunity."
Boyd nodded and said:
"Having said that, if we really want to swallow these ten thousand cavalry, we must be fast. If it takes a long time, it may be bad for our army."
"Go to investigate again, let the scouts out for fifty miles, and see how many infantry are still behind the Mongolian army."
Li Dingtian ordered.
The scouts were sent out like a revolving lantern. At this time, Li Dingtian still didn't make a final decision on whether to fight or retreat. This was of course due to Li Dingtian's character.
Of course, it is precisely because of Li Dingtian's current delay that finally caused his fiasco this time.
"General, otherwise, let's just retreat..."
Baode could see Li Dingtian's hesitation, and couldn't help but said at this time, when a person is difficult to make a decision, he often needs others to give him a little courage.
And Baode is a smart person, he understands the strength gap between the two sides, so at this time he persuaded Li Dingtian to retreat.
Li Dingtian glanced at Baode, shook his head, and said:
"If you go back directly like this, it's hard to guarantee that His Majesty will blame you."
Baode secretly sighed in his heart, even if His Majesty blamed him, it would be better than dying on the way.
"General..."
Baode wanted to say something else, but at this time Li Dingtian waved his hand and said:
"I have already made up my mind. The Mongols dare to act so boldly. This time I will make him come and go."
Li Dingtian heard that the opponent had only 1 people, and suddenly became inflated. He actually felt that his 3 people could beat the [-] cavalry of the Mongolian army.
Of course, Li Dingtian also has his own ideas.
In Li Dingtian's view, although the Mongolian army is strong, after all, after a long journey, coupled with the fact that they have just finished fighting Dingzhou City, they must be very tired.
Under the ebb and flow of the two sides, in Li Dingtian's view, it is not easy for him to annex the Mongolian army.
Of course, at this time, Li Dingtian didn't know how simple it was for the Mongolian army to capture Dingzhou City.
"But the scout hasn't come back yet!"
Boyd reminded.
"When the scouts come back, it's too late!"
Li Dingtian suddenly became decisive at this time, and said:
"I remember that there is Changbanpo not far behind, and we will set up an ambush at that place."
Changbanpo is a low hill. The official road passes through the center of the hill. Li Dingtian set up an ambush on both sides of the hill, preparing to use the cavalry as bait to lure the cavalry of the Mongolian army to go deep, and then let the infantry rush out from both sides. , Annihilated the Mongolian cavalry in one fell swoop.
This plan sounds flawless, at least in Li Dingtian's view, there is no problem.
After making the plan, Li Dingtian's army began to move quickly. There were [-] troops, [-] cavalry and [-] infantry. At this time, Li Dingtian ordered [-] cavalry to line up and prepare to face the Mongolian army from the front.
The [-] infantry were hiding on both sides of the Changbanpo hills as ambush, ready to wait for the cavalry to retreat, and suddenly launched an attack to encircle and wipe out the [-] Mongolian army at this place in Changbanpo.
Chen Jiang, the general of the Xixia cavalry, rode a horse at the front of the army. From a distance, he saw the Mongolian army galloping forward, with thousands of horses galloping. This momentum is still very shocking.
