Tumeng: I am a national advisor in the Golden Family

Chapter 89 Tuo Lei and Batu Debate
Late at night, in the camp of Genghis Khan's four sons.

Tuo Lei sat on the floor, with several bottles of fine wine and a plate of sliced ​​roast beef on the floor.

"You're here, sit down!"

"Well! Batu pays homage to his fourth uncle." Batu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, his eyes full of admiration and admiration.

In the hearts of all Mongolians, the one they admire most must be Genghis Khan, but for the second one, there are many choices.

There are the four mastiffs under Genghis Khan, the Taishi King Muhuali, the leader of the Four Heroes, and many sons of Genghis Khan.

But in Batu's eyes, apart from Genghis Khan, the most powerful Mongolian was neither his father Jochi.

It wasn't Wokuotai, Muhuali, Subotai and others, but the man in front of him, the fourth son of Genghis Khan, Tuo Lei.

Growing up, Batu admired Tuo Lei the most.

"Between you and my uncle and nephew, there is no need to be polite. Does your father know that you are coming to my place this time?" Torre smiled, looked at Batu and asked.

"Father, father doesn't know, father, he, he asked me to have less contact with you, fourth uncle." Batu said.

"But you still didn't listen to him and came to see me, right?" Tuo Lei said with a smile.

"Yes! Fourth uncle, I want to come and see you. When I left last time, your health was not very good. Wo Kuotai used a despicable trick to hurt you, just like he hurt my father back then." Batu said.

Although he fought with Wo Kuotai this time and Wo Kuotai was very kind to him, Batu still looked down on Wo Kuotai from the bottom of his heart.

"I'm fine. You should listen to your father more and come to see me less in the future. How is your health lately?" Tuo Lei asked.

"Fourth uncle! My father, my father is in very bad health. He coughs every day. I even saw him coughing up blood." Batu said, clenching his fists.

He really couldn't figure it out. He really couldn't figure it out. Among the four brothers, his father Jochi and Torre also had a good relationship.

Why did my father support his third uncle, Wo Kuotai, but not his fourth uncle, Tuo Lei?

"When you go back, tell your father to take good care of his health, and don't tell him about your coming to see me, lest he get angry. If his anger breaks his body, it will be bad," Tuo Lei said.

"Well! I know Fourth Uncle, and you also know that my father and I are going back to our own fiefdom soon. I don't know when I can see you again next time, so during this period, I want to spend more time with you. I will accompany you and learn more from you." Batu said.

"We will meet again in the future. You just said you wanted to learn from me. What do you think I can teach you?" Tuo Lei asked.

"You can teach me how to fight, Fourth Uncle! Apart from grandpa, you are the most powerful fighter among us Mongolians." Batu said.

"Haha, you went on an expedition with Wo Kuotai this time. Didn't you learn any fighting skills by following Wo Kuotai? This time Wo Kuotai and the others achieved an unprecedented victory." Tuo Lei said .

"But I believe that if you, Fourth Uncle, were to command this battle, we would be able to win it more smoothly and more beautifully, and achieve greater results," Batu said.

"Hahaha, tell me, what happened during your and Ogodei's expedition against the Delhi Sultanate?
Tell me how your third uncle Wokuotai and the Han named Zhang Yong used their troops. Tuo Lei poured a bowl of wine for his nephew himself and asked. "Well!"Fourth uncle!This is what happened." Batu immediately gave Torre a detailed description of the battles that took place during the conquest of the Delhi Sultanate.

From the time they divided their forces into ten groups, and then discovered the large forces of the Delhi Sultanate, they then decided to lure the enemy deep into the side, and then used fire attacks to completely annihilate the opponent, no matter how big or small they were.

"What a pity! What a pity! This man named Zhang Yong is only proficient in the art of war, and this guy Wo Kuotai is only brave in strategy. If I were to command this battle, there would be no need for more than 2000 people to die." After listening to Batu's words After describing it, Tuo Lei sighed and said.

"Fourth Uncle, how do you think this battle should be fought? If you were here at that time, how would you handle it?" Batu asked curiously.

"Batu, you must remember that no matter when fighting any enemy, you must first understand the strength of your enemy. It is said in the Han Art of War that if you know yourself and the enemy, you can fight without danger.

They divided their troops into ten groups to rob various cities. This was right, because they knew the power of these cities. If it were me, I would do the same, but I should send out a large number of scouts in advance.

Scout the enemy's large forces in advance. After entering the Delhi Sultanate for more than a month, the Delhi Sultanate will definitely send large forces to encircle and suppress them. This is inevitable. If they disperse their forces without detecting the enemy's large forces, this will This is very unwise behavior.

We can also lure the enemy deep here, and Wokuotai is not good enough. There is no need to kill so many soldiers. With gasoline, we can use fire attacks, and this kind of flame cannot be extinguished by water, which can create psychological effects on the enemy. pressure.

The correct way to fight would be for Wokuotai to send people to lure in front, and then Zhang Yong would lead the remaining troops, pick a high ground, set up a catapult, and prepare a cavalry as a reserve team.

Use catapults with gasoline clay pots to attack the opponent from a distance. With the ability of our Mongolian cavalry and the fear of fire of the elephant creature, as long as the fire starts and another cavalry comes out from the flank, this battle can be Destroy the opponent without spending a single soldier.

Why abandon the camp, burn the livestock we worked so hard to grab, and lose more than 2000 men and horses? Tuo Lei said.

"But Mr. Zhang also came up with this strategy at the time, but it was difficult to implement because there was no suitable plain battlefield nearby." Batu said.

"As a qualified general, you should consider various situations on the battlefield.

It is also particularly important to choose a suitable camping site and even a suitable battlefield.

Just like what I said to you, if they divide their troops into ten groups, they should anticipate this in advance and send out a large number of scouts for reconnaissance.

The army of the Delhi Sultanate can be discovered in advance, and the death of the 1000 leading troops can be completely avoided.

You can also look for opportunities to choose a suitable battlefield and attack the opponent directly in the field. If I had been in the army at that time, I would definitely not have killed or injured more than [-] people. Tuo Lei said.

After hearing this, Batu nodded, feeling that what his fourth uncle said was reasonable. There were some things that Zhang Yong and Wo Kuotai did not do well.

Zhang Yong, Wo Kuotai and others used the Fire Ox Formation and used their own camp as bait to annihilate the enemy's troops, which looked very powerful.

But in the eyes of Fourth Uncle, there are various shortcomings.

"Batu, what do you think of the Han man named Zhang Yong?" Tuo Lei asked.
