The horse battle continued until dusk. The tribal coalition forces, with at least several times the enemy's strength, still failed to drive the Ming cavalry out of the battlefield. The casualties and horses were scattered all over the valley.

After the two sides withdrew their troops, the Ming army finally stopped pursuing the next morning. Their troops were limited and they probably would not be able to entangle the Mongolian army for the time being.

At this time, there were also leaders in the Khan's central army, hoping that the Khan would gather cavalry to compete with the Ming army. After all, so far, the elite of the coalition forces of various departments had not been damaged and could still fight.

But Adaihan did not agree. He only said one sentence: "Even the most experienced hunter, who has been waiting for a long time and walking a lot of roads, may not get anything."

Alutai did not advocate continuing the battle. He just took a look at the Urianha people and looked down on his head and knew that it was impossible to start another war. People's morale and confidence were very important. The Mongolian army suffered a loss when attacking the Ming army's baggage camp two days ago. Now, it is not easy to let the troops fight harder?

Alutai observed Dahan's expression for a while, and felt that Dahan's decision was not hesitant, which was also out of this idea.

Many of the leaders below, even tribal leaders, were different from those of high-ranking people such as the Khan, the Zhiyuan, and the Prime Minister. Their feelings were very simple. Perhaps the desire for spoils before a war and generous acts would make them move forward bravely; but it was almost impossible for everyone to persist in restoring the belief in Dayuan for a long time regardless of victory or defeat.

"There is also the main camp of the Ming army to the south, and they are waiting for infantry reinforcements." Alutai said quietly, "We should seize the opportunity now and leave the battlefield as soon as possible. Throw away the heavy things in the camp and avoid the west of Halawen Mountain. By then we will get help from the Korqin people and the Asut people."

At this time, Tuluhuchaer, a native of Urianha, asked, "What should we do with the people of our Urianha tribe?"

A leader of the Korqin tribe on the horse's back blurted out: "Of course, go with us."

When Alutai saw Tuluhuchaer's depressed expression, he quickly understood what he meant. What Tuluhuchaer meant was the pastures of the Uryanha tribes and tribes everywhere, rather than the cavalry in the army.

"The Ming army will not stay on the grassland for too long." Alutai said, "When they leave, you will come back."

Tuoluhuchaer sighed.

Adai Khan said, "Now I can only follow what the guild says and try to avoid the Ming army first."

Da Khan expressed his attitude, and several people agreed one after another. But the people around him seemed a little silent at this time, and no one made any suggestions anymore.

When Alutai saw the Khan looking north, he followed Dahan's gaze. There was almost nothing in the north, and he could only see the increasingly obvious ups and downs. Alutai realized that this place was not far from Halawen Mountain.

When he withdrew his gaze, he saw a continuous line of traveling, including horse-drawn cars, livestock, and countless men, women, young and old. Many people were dejected and looked like they were fleeing.

In this battle, the Mongolian coalition did not suffer a major defeat on the battlefield. But there was a mistake in the process, which led to the army not only gaining nothing, but also suffered heavy losses for various reasons, not limited to the casualties and injuries on the battlefield...

Fortunately, the Han people survived and moved on the grassland, which was obviously not easy than the Mongolians. Two days later, the large group of the Ming army, Ma, became more and more distant from the Mongolian camp. The Mongolians just wanted to escape, and it seemed that there was no difficulty.

The battalions stopped very early today, and even had time to scatter people and go hunting and collecting food everywhere to reduce the consumption of the battalions.

After the Khan's central army tent was set up, Alutai took Asari to meet the Khan. There were also leaders such as Tuluhuchaer in the tent. Everyone talked about some prey that the tribe members fought, and did not talk about the frustrating war for a while.

Unexpectedly, two people came to the door of the tent. One of the guards of Adai Khan, with an Asut, the leader of the headquarters of the Arutai.

Others in the tent also immediately guessed that the Asuts were a tribe of Arutai, because the Asuts looked very different and were originally Semi-men of the Yuan Dynasty. Everyone looked sideways and looked at Arutai.

Dahan nodded, and the Asuts walked straight towards Arutai. What important things should be done by the visitor, otherwise there would be no need to rush to come to Dahan's tent.

As expected, the Asuts took out a letter and whispered beside Arutai: "The Oirats are going to attack us."

Alutai's face changed. He was stunned for a moment and said, "Report to the Khan first."

The Asuts picked up the letter, walked to the front of the Khan, knelt on one knee and submitted the letter to the report, reporting: "The Privy Council had sent people to the Mahamu tribe before. Not long ago, someone risked his life to escape and told a big thing.

Mahamu knew that the Ming people were fighting with various tribes, so he ordered the mobilization of cavalry from various tribes. It is said that Mahamu had taken the initiative to send envoys to the Ming Dynasty to ask for armor and weapons, and wanted to take the opportunity to attack the Khan on the grounds of helping the Khan in the Ming Dynasty."

When the people in the tent heard this, there was a noise. Most people immediately began to scold the Oirats. Although they were both Mongolian tribes, the leaders of the Tatar tribes seemed to have more disgust towards the Oirats than the Han people. Moreover, this time the Oirats took advantage of the dangers and took advantage of others' dangers. It was not a glorious thing on the grassland, and the tribes even disliked them.

The leaders of the Korchin tribe and Asut came forward to express their loyalty, wanting to follow the Khan to counterattack the Oirats and teach them a lesson. On the contrary, Adai Khan himself did not speak much and seemed a little taciturn.

So everyone revisited the war until dark.

The leaders of the tribes dispersed one after another and returned to their respective camps. Only Alutai and his sister were left in the central army tent.

The noisy atmosphere finally subsided. The guards brought the cooked milk tea. Adaihan waved his hand gently and asked the guards to retreat. The tent became even more deserted.

Several kings and ministers met silently. Alutai was about to speak when he suddenly realized that something was wrong with Ada Khan, so he swallowed the words he had to his mouth again.

When Ah Dai Khan picked up the tea bowl, his hands were shaking a little, and some milk tea splashed out. Ah Lutai raised his head and saw Da Sweat's face flushed and the blue veins on his forehead bulged, as if he was enduring some unbearable pain.

Adai Khan finally couldn't drink milk tea. He put down the bowl again and sat there without saying a word.

"I'm still too hasty and shouldn't have gone to sneak attack the Ming army's baggage camp." Adekhan exhaled a long sigh and looked at Alutai and said. The people from all tribes had left. He seemed to finally tell the truth in front of Alutai, "I haven't seen such a simple trap."

Alutai hurriedly advised: "You can't blame the Khan for the matter. If the Khan hadn't withdrawn his troops in time, our losses would have been greater." He paused and said, "At this time, the Oirats wanted to take advantage of the situation, but they might not be our opponents."

"Maybe it's all wrong for us to go to war with the Ming people." Adai Khan said.

When Alutai saw Adai Khan's regretful expression, he felt that Ren Dahan was very knowledgeable. But why did things become like this now? Alutai really didn't mean to blame Dahan. He thought to himself, maybe it was just because he was born at the wrong time?

The three of them sat together and remained silent for a while. Alutai's sister Ashari never spoke, she just observed Dahan silently.

Adai Khan spoke again, but did not look at Alutai talking. He seemed to be just talking to himself, "We inevitably have an illusion that we are extraordinary and will definitely achieve great achievements. But sometimes we need great skills to survive."

"Khan..." Arutai blurted out.

Adaihan turned to look at him: "I'm not saying despairing words. There are fewer and fewer people on the grassland, and the Han people are in a strong dynasty. We want to compete with it, but we were wrong at the beginning. Being able to preserve our strength at such an unfavorable time and prevent the tribes of the grassland from becoming a pile of scattered sand at the slaughter of others is probably what we should do in our life."

Alutai listened carefully and said, "But future generations may forget everything."

Dahan refused to comment, and the emotional out-of-control reaction on his face gradually disappeared. He said calmly: "The firearms of the Han people are different from those of the Yuan Dynasty (the Yuan army once had many firearms). The firearms used by infantry use machine flints, and it is even more difficult for Mongolian cavalry to break the formation on the front. I noticed that the cavalry of the Han people are also changing."

Arutai said: "Cavals using firearms?"

Dahan nodded and said, "Those cavalry with muskets are not stronger than our cavalry and shooting, and horses are not good. However, it is very difficult for Han civilians to ride horses to get cavalry; those cavalry with firearms make up for the cavalry that requires long-term training, which can be consumed by us. There are a large number of people in the Han area, towns, and making armored firearms is their strength. If this continues, the Mongolian country will become weaker and weaker."

Arutai did not respond immediately, but he had to admit that Dahan noticed the details very keenly.

"It turns out that when I discussed with Prime Minister Tuohuochi, I also said a strategy." Alutai did not directly agree with the words of the Khan. "Mongolia can make friends with the Ming Dynasty. First, find an opportunity to destroy the Oirats and unify the grasslands. A longer-term plan, but when the Han Dynasty declines, judging from the experience of thousands of years, their rise and fall will always be reincarnation."

Adai Khan said: "The Ming Dynasty court acknowledged that the Tatars were the orthodox of Mongolia and had long pursued the strategy of weakening us. Are they willing to make friends with us?"

"The current emperor Zhu Gaoxu doesn't seem to think so. His knowledge is different from that of most people." Alutai said.

After a while in the tent, Adai Khan took the initiative to say what both of them wanted to say, "Try to negotiate peace with the Ming people."

Alutai did not object. It was just that the word "Party" was quite reasonable. In fact, at such a dangerous time, they probably could only ask for peace...
