The Battle at Muu Undur starts

Two days ago, near Muu undur. /Modern Dornod province, Mongolia/

"Generals, we will deceive the enemy by placing scarecrows as guards and lit bonfires in the night to let them believe our troops are still at the camp, meanwhile Mukhulai I entrust you 1000 infantry. You will responsible for attacking Wan Khan's troops from the north. Boorchi, I entrust you 1500 horseman. You will ambush Wan Khan's scattered troops that are retreating to the west. Jelme, you are entrusted with 1000 infantry. You will attack from south. Chagatai, you will have 500 troops at the camp, responsible for raising scarecrows and keeping bonfires on. You must ensure that the enemy is mistaken and believe our troops are still at the camp, understood?" instructed Temuujin.

"Yes my lord. Said his generals, placing their right hand on their chest.

"I will lead 1000 troops personally to chase the enemy away and kill as many enemies as possible causing great casualties to the enemy." told Temuujin with firm determination.

20km northwest of Muu Undur.

Wan Khan of Khereit tribe has brought 10,000 troops from his tribe. Wan Khan leads his army, while the vice commander position is given to his youngest son, Sengun.

The betrayed Altan, Khuchir, Daridai from Borjigin clan /Mongolian Royal Family/ has brought 2000 troops while Jamukha of Jadran clan /A noble clan/ has brought his 2000 troops.

In total, the number of troops that are marching to Muu Undur is around 14000. Gathering 14000 troops are not been seen since Temuujin's father's death 30 years ago. Mongolian tribes had divided into multiple factions with a faction having at most 10000 troops.

In the front of the march, four horses are aligned, on top of the leading horses, Wan Khan, Sengum, Altan, and Daridai was having conversation.

"Wan Khan you will be successfully capture Temuujin. In the vast steppe, there is no other ruler who can gather this huge army! I believe Temuujin is now afraid of facing you, fortifying his settlement." said the betrayed Altan of Borjigin clan, flattering the old Wan Khan Tooril.

"Yes Wan Khan, if you capture and execute Temuujin, there would be no other Mongolian khan /king/ under the blue sky. You will be the Great khan who united the Mongols!" said Daridai while smiling, showing his blackened teeth.

"Altan, Daridai... Temuujin once defeated the Merkits with my assistance. A wolf may be surrounded and wounded by hunters, but a cornered wolf who has no way of survival is the most dangerous! Temuujin is a wolf who is surrounded. You must be careful" said the fat Wan Khan, touching his beard.

"But father, Temuujin has at most 5000 troops. We have almost three times more troops than him, shouldn't we just attack him?" said Sengum, Wan Khan's youngest son.

"No Sengum, be alerted. Temuujin is the son of Yesukhei Baatar, the famous hero and khan of the Mongols, the father's blood must be in his veins" said Wan Khan reprimanding his son for his repulsiveness.

At Muu undur camp, near Temuujin's settlement

Please set the scarecrows as if the enemy would mistake them as soldiers, said a Mongolian Squad leader of 10 soldiers instructed.

"Yes, sir." said 9 soldiers in unison, placing their right hand on their chest, bowing slightly.

Just as this squad, 500 people prepared thousands of scarecrow and hundreds of bonfire woods in the middle of the camp.

The sun has set down behind the vast grand steppe.

Wan Khan's troops has arrived within 2km range of Temuujin's camp.

A clopping sound of a horse could be heard. A scout is riding a horse as fast as he can.

"Urgent report sir! Urgent report sir!" shouted a the scout of Wan Khan.

"What is the matter, is Temuujin at his camp?" asked Wan Khan on his horse.

"Temuujin's army.... Temuujin's army is at Muu Undur.But sir,..." hesitated the scout.

"Don't hesitate, just say what happened?" said Sengum.

"Sir, there are hundreds of Bonfire lit, around 20000 troops are camping at Temuujin's settlement," said the scout, feeling afraid.

"Impossible, Wan Khan! Temuujin can not gather this many troops in such a short time, he must have included women and children." said Jamukha.

"Jamukha, don't be impulsive to attack. Let's camp here. In the morning, we need to guarantee number of troops our enemy has" said Altan.

"No, Altan we must attack now. Jamukha's word has truth in it. How can Temuujin gather 20000 troops? Even though he has gathered this many, most of his troops should be newbies, with no experience in battle...." said Sengum, Wan Khan's son.

While Wan Khan,Sengum, Jamukha, Altan, Khuchir, and Daridai have heated arguments about whether to attack or hold, the word Temuujin has 20,000 troops has spread like a wildfire among the troops.

"What is that light?Which Illuminating the night?" Asked a soldier.

"The scout has news that Temuujin has 20000 soldiers" said another one

"What 20,000? We have around 14,000. Can we win this fight?" said another one.

Just like this, a gossip of defeat has dulled the will of battle among the soldiers of Wan Khan in a mere hour.

'Shoooo...'

'Shooo.'

'Shoo.'

The sound of Archers shooting arrows could be heard. Around twenty soldiers bas shot by arrows, falling down from their horses.

"Enemy is attacking! Temuujin is attacking!" shouted a soldier.

"Father, we are under attack what should we do now." said Sengum, son of Wan Khan.

"All troops, be ready to engage in battle!" instructed Wan Khan, drawing his saber out of his scabbard.

All the 14,000 troops has either drawn their sabers or put an arrow on their bow ready to shoot.

"Enemies from the North!" shouted a soldier. Soon to be shot down by an arrow.

"No, enemies from the South!" shouted another soldier, who is on the southern part of the march.

'Shoo.'

'Shooo.' the sound of rain of arrows falling down could be heard again. When you look at the sky, a cloud of arrows has obstructed the moonlight.

But this time, not a dozen of people are shot down, but hundreds of people are shot, either severely injured or dead on spot.

The horses of Wan Khan's troops have been alarmed, making chaos in the march.

'Neigh...'

'Neigh..' some horses are shot as well, making them docile and run rampant.

"Let's retreat a bit and reorganize our troops," said Wan Khan, leading his troops back to the west direction.

The confused troops of Wan Khan has followed their leader to reorganize.

When Wan Khan and his troops retreated, another rain of arrows has been shot from the west side.

'Shoo...'

'Argh...' Sengum, the youngest son of Wan Khan has been shot on his shoulder.

"Sengum!" said Wan Khan in a worried manner.

"Father! I am fine, this wound is not lethal! Let's get out of this encirclement first" said Sengum, easing his father's worry.

"My lord! Temuujin's army is everywhere, we need to make a path and retreat to the northwest side." said the captain of Wan Khan.

"All troops to Northwest!" instructed Wan khan, marching and galloping in the Northwest direction.."
