The Mongol Empire, which once almost ruled the world, declined very quickly. The Yuan Dynasty was driven out of the Central Plains, and several other khanates quickly collapsed.

At this time, most of the Mongolian tribes that once competed with the Ming Dynasty, except for Junggar in the western Mo, had some strength, declined.

In February, at the foot of Yanran Mountain, the herdsmen of the Zasaktu tribe moved away from their pastures to avoid the attacks of the Tang and Qing coalition forces.

It is located north and the climate is severely cold. The south has entered a warm spring, but it is still cold here.

Going north is the North Sea and the northern province of the Yuan Dynasty, which is a vast and vast wasteland. Zasaktu Khan felt that the army in the Central Plains could not penetrate deep here, and the tribes should be temporarily safe.

At this time, in the Khan tent, the nobles of the Zasaktu tribe were roasting a bonfire, wrapped in cotton robes and sticky hats around them, comforting everyone, "We retreat here and hide for a while, if the enemy cannot find our trace, they will withdraw to the pass. Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty five times conquered the Yuan Dynasty, but what was the result? In the end, it was not the withdrawal of the Central Plains, and the pasture was still our pasture."

After hearing his words, the princes and nobles felt a little relieved, but someone still said: "Khan, the Qing and Tang coalition forces have destroyed our two Mobei divisions in succession. Will they track down here?"

Zasaktu Khan smiled confidently and said, "The climate here is cold and deserted. Except for more than a thousand years ago, when the Han army pursued the Huns, no other army from the Central Plains had arrived. Don't worry, the Qing and Tang coalition forces were exhausted and they would retreat soon."

Seeing that the Khan was so confident, the nobles came to rest assured and prepared to stay here for two months before returning to the ranch to grazing.

"Come on! Everyone eat meat and drink tea!" Zasaktu Khan greeted everyone loudly.

Many nobles felt relieved, and the men on the grassland were straightforward and began to eat and drink while talking and laughing.

No one noticed it at this time, and a trace of worry flashed in Zasaktu Khan's eyes.

He wasn't actually sure if it was safe here.

There were many Mongolian cavalry in the Qing and Tang dynasties. They might have traced the tribe, but he had no other way. He could not go to the east and south, and there was a powerful Junggar to the west, so he could only hide north.

More than 100,000 people in the tribe need to survive, cattle, sheep and horses need grass. Walking northwards is the wasteland, and there are no grass available. There are also activities of Rakshasa people, so he can only hide here.

At this time, many nobles were eating and drinking in the Han tent, some herders in the camp were driving the flock into the sheep pen, and the women were cooking for their families.

More than ten miles away from the camp, a murderous cavalry was coming silently.

The cavalry galloped on horseback, and the horse's hooves trampled on the grass and splashed the soil. Haoge and Wu Sangui led 30,000 cavalry to encircle the Mongol camp.

At dusk, outside the camp tents all over the mountains, the herdsmen who were gathering cattle and sheep suddenly stopped moving and turned their heads to look south, with horror in their eyes.

"Kill!" Wu Sangui roared loudly, breaking the tranquility of dusk. Thirty thousand Qing cavalrymen pulled their cavalry bows, clamped their three-eyed guns under their armpits, raised their cavalry rifles, and divided them into multiple strands and rushed towards the Mongol camp.

The camp suddenly exclaimed in and out of the camp, men, women, young and old hurriedly came out of the tent, men picked up weapons and turned over horses, while women and children fled in all directions in fear.

At this time, the Mongolian herders quickly gathered and rode their horses to greet them resolutely. The two sides first shot bows and arrows, and then violently hit. The Mongolian cavalry was behind and they were beheaded and dropped off their horses. The grassland was filled with blood mist, and fell corpses were everywhere.

Behind the Mongolian light cavalry is the tribal camp, which contains their own wives, children and families. They cannot play the advantage of the light cavalry fighting and suffer heavy losses from the frontal impact.

At this time, the movement outside alarmed the nobles in the tent. Zasaktu Khan quickly walked out of the tent and was frightened to see countless cavalry running on the grassland in the wilderness south. A cavalry had broken through the obstacle and poured into the camp.

"Khan! The enemy is coming, let's go!" The many nobles panicked.

Zasaktu Khan's face changed drastically. Something he was worried about happened. Unexpectedly, the Qing and Tang coalition forces would chase Yanran Mountain.

"It will be too late if the khan doesn't leave!" A Wanhu led dozens of cavalry over and shouted at everyone.

Zasaktu Khan quickly turned over to the horse. He didn't care about his family, so he led a group of nobles to flee westward, preparing to surrender to Seinnoyan's tribe.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry in the camp urged their horses to gallop, and thousands of cavalry fled west in a hurry.

Zasaktu Khan ran wildly. When he was racing for more than ten miles, nearly 10,000 cavalry suddenly emerged from the woods, and the muskets fired volleys, and the Mongolian cavalry fell off their horses in succession.

The coalition cavalry came from the side, and the cavalry circled around the Mongolian cavalry and surrounded Zasaktu Khan. Only a few cavalry continued to flee to the west.

At this time, the Tang cavalry was about to chase after him, but was stopped by Li Jiyu, "Let them go!"

The law of the jungle is followed on the grassland, and tribes are annexed by each other. For ordinary herders, in addition to the revenge and annexation between foreign races, they will kill all the tribe men, most of the time, they will change to the noble master and continue to be slaves and sheep for them.

In Zasaktu's camp, the battle was soon coming to an end. The ground was filled with corpses of Mongolians, the air was filled with blood, and the white tent was trampled to the point of stuttering, splashing with scarlet blood.

The Tang and Qing coalition forces were in annexing Mongolia in the northern desert, so they did not kill all the Mongols. Tens of thousands of prisoners were taken into custody, waiting for the division between the Tang and Qing dynasties.

At this time, Haoge and Wu Sangui did not stay in the camp for a long time, leaving some cavalry guarding the prisoners to clean up the spoils, and the main force immediately led their troops to run westward.

The demise of the Chechen Khan tribe and the Tushetu Khan tribe shocked the Zasaktu tribe and the Seinnoyan tribe. In order to avoid the coalition forces, the two tribes fled to the foot of Yanran Mountain, more than 50 miles apart to facilitate mutual care.

The four tribes in Mobei are just a loose tribal alliance. There are many contradictions and conflicts occur frequently for the pastures.

It is precisely because of this that the Zasaktu tribe and Seinnoyan tribe still did not jointly operate when facing the threat of the coalition forces, giving the coalition forces the opportunity to defeat each other.

At this time, more than fifty miles away from the Zasaktu Khan camp, the camp of the Seinnoyan tribe suddenly became turbulent, and the herders rushed out of the tent, turned over their horses, and rushed out of the camp with torches.

Just now, the Seinnoyan tribe learned that the Zasaktu tribe was attacked. Many Mongolian nobles did not think much and quickly mobilized 20,000 cavalry and headed east with torches.

When the Mongolian cavalry marched eastward, a team of coalition cavalry had quietly appeared south of the Mongolian camp.

Wu Sangui looked at the bonfire in the camp, suddenly pulled out his battle knife and pointed forward, "Kill!"

The coalition cavalry suddenly raised their torches and roared into the camp.

The survival of the Mongolians on the grassland was entirely due to cattle and sheep in the tribe. The coalition forces controlled the Mongolian camps and seized their food. The Mongolian cavalry who went out to the camp had to surrender.
