After a long time of silence, Batumonk took off his sword from his waist, put it on the table in front of him, and said loudly: "National Master, I heard that Tumu Fort is still entrenched in tens of thousands of Ming troops, hindering my grassland's pace of advancing into the capital!"

Just one sentence made the patriarchs of the tribes present amazed.

In the eyes of these patriarchs, the Ming army was already defeated. From the west of the Great Wall to Datong Town, all the city gates should have been removed. It was impossible for the Ming Dynasty soldiers to be still entrenched. However, they never thought that there was a place called Tumu Fort, and the Ming army was not yet possessed by their younger sisters.

According to Dayan Khan, there were actually tens of thousands of Ming troops in a city, which may be more than the Ming Dynasty soldiers and horses that Batumonk encountered in the battle of Tianchengwei before.

Yi Sima Yin had stubbornly said that he had not suffered a defeat, but it was a fact that Tumu Fort was still in the hands of the Ming army. Fortunately, Yi Sima Yin was cunning and prepared for this, and replied righteously: "Report to the Great Khan, the number of Ming Dynasty defenders entrenched in Tumu Fort is less than 10,000. Tumu Fort has been disrepaired and can be broken every once in a while!"

Yi Sima Yin said this solemnly and powerfully, in order to reassure all the tribal leaders present.

Sure enough, after hearing the instructions that the dynasty had less than 10,000 soldiers in Tumu Fort, the faces became much better. In their opinion, the thousands of people in the Ming Dynasty could not be hindered at all. After all, the tribes on the grassland came out in full swing, with sufficient troops. In addition, they seized Yulin Wei and Xuanfu Town, and seized countless siege equipment.

Batumonk said: "Will there be any attack before the national sect?"

The question came to the point. If Yisimayin said there was a siege, Batumonk would say, why didn't you break the city in a daze?

If there is no siege, Yisimayin must make a reasonable explanation.

In fact, the patriarchs of the other tribes may not be very clear about the previous few battles in Tumu Fort, but Batumonk, as a great khan, knew it very well, and even Yi Sima was futile because of his denial.

Yi Sima tried to make his words more reasonable: "The Khan, the general of the Ming Dynasty's defender, was the governor of Yansui, appointed by the Ming Dynasty emperor. This son was cunning and versatile. His troops were always unexpected. He also encountered our strategy of sending troops. In order to avoid unnecessary losses, I wanted to adopt the strategy of siege but not attacking, leaving Tumu Fort, and detour to attack Juyong Pass!"

The patriarch present had just breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard Shen Xi's name, many people's scalp could not help but feel numb.

Who is Shen Xi? That was the person who made the grassland coalition army fail several years ago. It directly led to the continuous melee of the grassland in the following years and was a nightmare in the minds of many grassland people.

Shen Xi was just an ordinary courtier in the Ming Dynasty. Not many people knew about it. However, on the grassland, it was a big man known to everyone from the Khan to the ordinary herdsmen. Many people even don’t know who Liu Daxia was, but Shen Xi was familiar with the people in the grassland who had a sense of awe of the strong. They treated Shen Xi as their confidant enemy.

When he heard that Shen Xi led his troops to guard Tumu Fort, many patriarchs were relieved. The genius boy who once used a cattle to pull artillery chariots and a few hundred people could make the grassland coalition fail on the north bank of the Yuxi River. Now he has tens of thousands of troops and a city gate garrison. This battle will definitely be difficult to fight.

Even Su Suha, who had an aggressive tone before, changed her face after hearing Shen Xi's name and stopped singing the opposite tune with Yi Simayin.

Batumonk saw the sharp change in attitude of the people present, and he looked at an unfathomable smile on his face and asked with a sarcastic sarcasm:

"Can a minister with a little fame in the Ming Dynasty change the plan of my descendants of Canglang and Bailu to compete for the Central Plains and revive the might of Emperor Gaozu?"

Batumonk was very good at encouraging the morale of the military. After he said this, everyone present was full of spirits and inspiring the grasslands. The era when the Golden Family led all tribes to unify the Central Plains and dominate the Eurasian Great Six.

Now the Mongols are in a weak position. Although they win more and lose less in the battle with the Ming people, it is difficult to achieve any great results. Now they have the opportunity to win the Ming Dynasty capital in one fell swoop and repeat the glorious scene. Moreover, the early military operations were very smooth. Those present naturally felt that this battle was within reach and would not give up a bright future because of an isolated city of the Ming army and less than 10,000 soldiers.

Batumonk stared at Yisimain and said, "National Master, my Khan's previous plan will not be changed. It is necessary to ensure that when attacking the Ming Dynasty's capital, no Ming Dynasty troops attacked the rear. Therefore, Tumu Fort must be conquered, and the Ming army's guard Chen Xi must also be resolutely removed!"

When Yi Simayin heard this, his heart quickly sank because he had a premonition that Batumonk was about to issue the order.

"In the name of Taizu, Taizong and Shizu, I ordered the national commander Yisimayin to lead the troops of our troops and immediately return to attack Tumu Fort. It is necessary to conquer it within three days. Then, lead the troops to meet with the main forces of each unit to jointly attack the Great Wall pass and the capital in the Ming Dynasty! If there is any other dispatch, my Khan will order the troops to join the national commander's army!"

Batumonk said in an indecisive tone.

Yi Sima saw the eyes of all the clan leaders present at this time, not jealousy and envy, but mocked him for leading troops to attack Tumu Fort, which would mean that he would no longer charge forward like before, but would stay in the palace behind him.

The previous errands of the palace were handed over to the Fire Screen Department, which had gradually become weak in recent years. As a result, the Fire Screen Department was defeated by Liu Daxia in Ningxia. Even the Fire Screen himself is still dead.

Now it's Yisimain and his tribal rear guard! In addition to attacking Tumu Fort, Batumonk's words "If there is another dispatch", is more important. This is actually telling Yisimain that even if you conquer Tumu Fort, you don't have to come to Neiguan and the capital of the Great Wall, just be responsible for the guards of the entire army.

The reinforcements from Datong Town and Taiyuan Town were defeated, but there were reinforcements on both sides. Liu Daxia's troops would retreat soon, and someone would always need to stop them.

Yi Sima Yin was extremely annoyed. What he thought was that if he had conquered Tumu Fort in the previous battle, he would not have had the current embarrassment.

As the national Tatar master, Yi Simayin could certainly refuse, but he did not dare to publicly contradict the Khan on occasions such as the Khan Conference. It was obviously extremely unwise to do so. Moreover, the Khan was destined to do so, so he could not make too much consideration and could only accept the order respectfully: "Abide by the Khan's order!"

When Batumonk heard this, he finally nodded with satisfaction, as if his previous dissatisfaction with Yisimayin also disappeared.

After discussing the arrangements for the Tumu Fort war, Batumonk mentioned next about attacking the Great Wall and the capital in the Ming Dynasty. Yi Simayin had no intention of listening.

The Khans ministry meeting did not last long. As soon as the king's tent was over, Yi Sima had to leave the security guard in shame and dispatch troops to re-siege Tumu Fort.

After coming out of the king's tent, Yi Sima frowned because he felt that he was no longer trusted by Batumonk. He had been worried before that after the rise of the Dayan tribe, he would attack several major tribes to achieve the goal of the Dayan tribe as the dominant family. At this time, he was even more worried about this matter.

Wu Licha learned about the conference from others. On the way out of the city, he rode his horse to Yisimayin and asked in a low voice: "National Master, why did the Khan ask you to lead the warriors of our tribe to attack Tumu Fort? Could it be that the Khan's soldiers would not participate in the siege?"

Yi Sima did not explain to Wu Licha because he knew that this was a general who could only use brute force. He would be brave, but he did not have a smart mind. Unfortunately, Huo Ling, whom he admired the most, is now trapped in Tumu Fort and there is no possibility of escape in a short period of time.
