Altan Khan didn't know that Yang Cong was planning to give him a way to treat him. He was upset now.

For tribes on the grassland, they relied on forage.

In the entire northwest, the one with the most abundant pasture is Dongtao. Unfortunately, Dongtao has been occupied by the Ming army.

There is also the southern part of the Western Takka, and the forage barely allows them to maintain the status quo. Unfortunately, the southern part of the Western Takka was also occupied by the Ming army.

At this moment, he had no choice but to break up the troops of the Tatar tribe and gather on a few small grasslands in the central part of the Western Tatar tribe. There was not much grass in these places, and it was difficult for them to barely maintain the status quo. It would not take long before cattle and sheep would starve to death in groups. How could they reproduce and survive?

At this time, he had already experienced the difficulties of survival. The Tatar tribe had not experienced this difficulty of survival for hundreds of years, so he didn't know how to deal with it.

What to do?

Could it be that the army should be organized and fought hard to fight the Ming army to regain the southern part of the Western Tak and even the Eastern Tak?

He really didn't have the courage at this moment because the Ming army's equipment was really terrifying.

The Ming army at this time was completely different from the past. It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a reincarnation.

The Ming army's chariots, muskets and cannons were simply the nemesis of cavalry, so he lost the courage to fight the Ming army.

He is not afraid of death. He has to be able to make something even if he fights his life. Judging from the current situation, fighting with the Ming army is to die. Apart from that, there is no other gain.

Is it necessary to fight against others even though I know I am going to die?

Obviously, there was no need at all. He was even considering whether to lead the main force of the Tatar tribe to the north of the desert or the Western Regions.

Although the climate in those places is relatively harsh, at least there is enough grass. If the local forces can be defeated and the territory can be snatched off, there will be no big problem in reproduction and reproduction.

However, this large-scale migration is not that simple. Seizing territory and fighting local forces is not even a big deal. The main problem is how to go through it.

The migration of tribes is not the raid of cavalry. Cavalry can ride war horses, coming and going like the wind, and there is no problem with long-distance raids for thousands of miles or even tens of thousands of miles. The migration of tribes is different. The old, weak, women and children, cattle, sheep, horses, tents, daily necessities, etc. have to be brought with them. The movement speed is so slow that it is unimaginable. A distance of thousands of miles may have to last for several months, but what should I eat in these months?

They don’t have any excess food. Once they leave the grassland and cannot maintain enough cattle and sheep, they will starve to death!

Therefore, the great migration of tribes is quite dangerous, even more dangerous than fighting. The war basically means losing some young and strong people. If the tribes are migrated in a big way, the entire tribe will be gone!

Altan Khan thought about it for a long time, but still did not have the courage to take the Tatar tribe on the road of great migration.

After all, the Ming army has not yet forced them into a dead end.

As for the fortress advancement tactics of the Ming army, he was not very worried, because the terrain of Xitao was extremely complex, except for the relatively flat grassland at the southernmost point, there were mountains everywhere else.

If the Ming army insisted on building a fortress, they could build it. However, they would never be able to repair this railway.

He also knew now that the reason why the Ming army dared to use the fortress promotion tactic was because there were railways to transport food, supplies and other materials. If there was no railway, the fortress alone would be built, the transportation of food and grass alone would be unbearable.

In other words, if the railway cannot be built, there is no need to worry that the Ming army will adopt the fortress advance tactic. For the time being, they are still safe and there is no need to embark on that dangerous road of great migration.

Unfortunately, "the blessings come unparalleled, but misfortunes never come in singularity." Just as he was wandering, bad news came again. The Ming army actually divided into two groups and attacked from Songshan Fort and attacked the two nearest small grasslands!

The Ming army's actions once again exceeded his expectations.

What a joke? Isn’t this seeking death if you don’t build fortresses or railways, and rely on the army to advance alone?

You should know that without the fortress relay and railway transportation, the transportation of food and grass will not be so easy. Once the food channel is cut off, it will be a disaster.

This is also the reason why they have never been eliminated by the Ming Dynasty.

The strength at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty was quite terrifying. The Ming army in Hongwu and Yongle dynasties were hundreds of thousands or even millions. The Ming Dynasty did not know how many northern expeditions were organized. Every time, it was either a million or hundreds of thousands of troops. What was the result?

At most, they could take advantage of their military strength to stroll around the desert south, and they didn't dare to go deep into the vast sea, because everyone knew that once the food was unsustainable, the army would collapse.

The commander of the Ming army, Yang Cong, is really a bit too arrogant. I really think he is afraid?

He decided that he must teach Mingjun a lesson this time.

Of course, it would be even better if both Ming troops could be wiped out.

So he began to gather troops again and prepare to go to war with the Ming army.

This time, he summoned a total of 100,000 cavalry. He gave a death order to any tribe that could produce cavalry. If he did not come to join the war this time, he would definitely lead his army to retaliate afterwards, and see who dared not come.

The other tribes on the grassland were indeed afraid of him as the overlord, and no one dared not to send troops to join the war. However, their gathering speed was quite slow. After all, the gathering places of major tribes were relatively far apart, and the farthest one was even more than a thousand miles away. Even the cavalry rushed over after hearing the news, which would take almost a month.

At this time, something that made him vomit blood happened. He had just as he assembled the army and was about to run over to the Ming army's retreat. The two Ming troops actually fled after hearing the news and retreated back to Songshan Fort!

This guy was a little fucked. He led his army to the tribe that was "robbed" by the Ming army and saw that he almost spit out an old blood.

These Ming troops are simply too cruel!

What did he see?

This scene is even worse than when he went to the Ming army's border town to hunt grass valley!

At that time, he would only grab things and people at most. As for the house, if he had not encountered any resistance, he would not set fire to burn it.

These Ming soldiers were different. They burned all the tents by them, and all the cattle and sheep were kidnapped by them, except for tens of thousands of herders left, looking at him pitifully and waiting for him to offer!

As soon as he saw this scene, he immediately understood that the Ming army was not here to fight him at all!

These Ming troops came to plunder, or in other words, they came to consume the already stretched survival supplies in his hands.

Why did the Ming army not catch any one, or even hurt one? It was not that they could not catch up or that they could not find them. They did not want to catch these herdsmen at all. Otherwise, these herdsmen who were with their families could not escape the Ming army's chariots.

Obviously, Ming Jun did it on purpose.

Ming Jun deliberately let these herdsmen go to increase the speed of other materials consumption!

This move is so cruel!

Looking at these pitiful herdsmen, Altan Khan's eyes gradually became as desperate as theirs.

Can he not support these people? These are all his people!

Question, what should others do if these people are supported?
