When the claw picture is in my mind and I recall the original scene, I still feel frightened.
Everywhere there were Tatar soldiers who were blown to the ground by the ceramic shards in the grenades, wailing and leaving only one breath.
Some of them had their limbs broken off by the blast, and some had large holes cut into their stomachs by the flying ceramic shards, and their intestines flowed all over the floor.
There were corpses everywhere, and when your feet stepped on the ground, they would make a "click-click" sound. A nauseatingly strong smell of blood mixed with a fishy smell filled the air and could not dissipate for a long time.
And everything in this hell was the work of the Ming Ting general named Yang Xuan opposite!
When Zhuertu came back to his senses, he suddenly realized that even his hand holding the reins began to tremble uncontrollably.
Soon, an extremely cruel fact emerged in his mind - he was scared!
Yes, Zhuertu was afraid of encountering the Ming army again, and even more afraid of fighting the Ming army. Since the last time, after he saw the combat effectiveness of the Ming army and those powerful weapons, he had a lingering fear. shadow.
He could never figure out why the fire blunderbuss in the hands of the Ming army not only had a long range, but were also very powerful.
If the formation is dense enough, the Ming army's muskets can knock down four or five of the most elite Tatar cavalry with just one shot. But if the formation is too spread out, it will easily be overrun by the Ming army who are not afraid of death. Disperse!
Not to mention, in the hands of the Ming army, there is a very powerful bomb!
As for the power of those bombs, Zhuertu had personally witnessed it. He could not even imagine the scene where the Ming army used such cruel and powerful weapons on himself.
Thinking of this, Zhuertu couldn't help but shudder. He knew very well that with the front army of more than 3,000 people he led, he even added the Chinese army behind him and the cavalry on both sides to protect him. , and is not the other party’s opponent!
Even if both sides had the same strength, he, Zhuertu, did not dare to take the initiative and attack the Ming army without fear of death.
At this moment, Zhuertu's hesitant and timid appearance was clearly visible to Tumaihan and Amutai in the distance.
For Amutai, nothing makes him feel more happy than seeing his enemy defeated, especially this person is the enemy whose flesh he wants to eat and whose skin he wants to sleep on.
Seeing this situation, Amutai couldn't help but feel a flash of joy in his heart, and said to himself: "Hmph, Zhaoertu, you are usually not afraid of death and always charge forward. How come you are ready to be slaughtered when you see the Ming army?" The lamb is dead and you don’t even dare to move?”
"Hmph, are you the only one who deserves the title of Battle?"
As the confrontation between the two sides became longer and longer, the three thousand-man army commanded by Zhuertu soon became restless.
Because some sharp-eyed soldiers recognized that the front army on the opposite side was about the same number as themselves, and they were all Tatar soldiers.
As for the two leaders, one is the target of their trip, Amutai, and the other is the Great Khan of their tribe. So aren't they now going against their own Great Khan?
These Tatar soldiers have been taught since childhood that the blood of the noble golden family flows in the body of the Great Khan. He is supreme, and only the Great Khan can lead the tribe to prosperity!
But the current situation is that they are holding weapons and fighting against their own Khan. For a while, many Tatar soldiers looked at me and I looked at you, and they didn't know what to do.
At this moment, on the Ming army side, Yang Xuan, who was in command of the central army, saw that the heat was almost over. He immediately turned his eyes to his subordinates aside and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Well, let them begin!"
"Yes, General!"
After Yang Xuan's order was issued, subordinates who understood Tatar soon conveyed Yang Xuan's order word for word to the ears of Tumaihan and Amutai.
After the Ming soldier who brought the news left, Tumaihan and Amutai looked at each other, then summoned the soldiers and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Well, let's get started!"
"Yes, Khan!"
Soon after this, several Tatar soldiers with loud voices came forward and shouted loudly to the opposite side.
"Brothers opposite, listen up. The Ming army came here this time under the entrustment of the Great Khan to quell the rebellion of our Chahar tribe!"
"As long as you put down your weapons, the Great Khan will forgive all your crimes. After all, you are just following orders!"
"If you are unwilling to put down your weapons and still insist on going against the Great Khan, you will be executed for treason!"
"Not only that, your family, wives and daughters will all be treated harshly. As long as you put down your weapons and stop resisting, the Great Khan will forgive all your crimes!"
After several rounds of shouting, the more than 3,000 Tatar soldiers led by Zhaertu had already lost their morale.
Although during this process, Zhuertu tried to stop him many times in order to regain his morale, and even used his personal guards to kill those soldiers who put down their weapons, it was still to no avail.
The decline in morale is an irreversible process. Soon, as more and more Tatar soldiers laid down their weapons, Zhaertu knew very well that the situation was over and there was no way back.
After all, the other party has a lot of help and firmly holds the big weapon of legitimacy in his hands!
As early as the moment when the two armies faced each other and Tumaihan ordered his men to shout, the defeat of Zhuertu was already doomed.
On the one hand, his strength is far inferior to that of the Ming army commanded by Yang Xuan opposite him. On the other hand, the Ming army also has Tumaihan, the current Zasak Tuhan, to endorse the rationality of its actions.
In other words, anyone who confronts the Ming army will be labeled as a traitor and end up with an extremely tragic end.
In addition, not long ago, the people of Tumaikan announced in public that as long as they lay down their weapons and stop resisting, they will be forgiven all their crimes.
As soon as these words came out, most of the doubts in the hearts of the Tatar soldiers present were quickly dispelled.
After all, the Great Khan has given them a chance to survive. If they resist to the end, the Ming army on the opposite side, which is several times their own, will not be a vegetarian!
After that, Zhuertu saw that the situation was over, and immediately planned to rush out with his personal guards.
But two fists are no match for four hands. With only Zhu Ertu and dozens of his personal guards, how can he escape safely from the siege of more than 3,000 people?
Soon, due to exhaustion, the rest of the Tatar soldiers pulled Zhaertu from his horse and held him firmly.
Those Tatar soldiers who had laid down their weapons planned to use them as a bargaining chip to survive.
In the distance, Tumaihan and Amutai saw their enemies being captured alive, and a glimmer of joy at having their great revenge suddenly flashed in their eyes. They immediately ordered their soldiers to step forward and control all the soldiers on the opposite side who had already surrendered.
Soon, the three thousand soldiers led by Amutai, after receiving the order, immediately stepped forward and controlled the surrendered soldiers who had put down their weapons and stopped resisting.
Although they are not good at fighting, right now, aren't they easy enough to deal with these surrendered soldiers who have put down their weapons and stopped resisting?
Since the two sides spoke the same language, communication was very efficient. These soldiers who had laid down their weapons were quickly gathered in batches.
…
On the other side, at this moment, Wei Zhengsu, who was commanding the central army, saw that the front army led by Zhuertu had not launched an attack, so he couldn't help but become suspicious, and quickly sent scouts to investigate the situation.
But soon, he was extremely shocked by the news returned by the scouts sent out.
The three thousand former troops led by Zhaertu surrendered in an organized manner without even fighting the opponent.
In addition, Wei Zhengsu also learned from the scouts that Tumaihan was still alive, just when he was extremely angry about the news.
Soon, even worse news came out from the mouth of the scout: "Tumaihan also brought the Ming army here, on the grounds that he would help the tribe suppress the rebellion!"
Seeing that his behavior had been classified as rebellion, the expression on Wei Zhengsu's face suddenly became gloomy and uncertain.
At this moment, in his heart, he was full of unwillingness. He was obviously only one step away from the Khan position, so why did so many accidents happen?
First, Tumaihan, the current Zasak Tuhan, was not dead, and then the Ming army also intervened in tribal affairs under the banner of suppressing the rebellion for Tumaihan.
Even the Chahar tribe, which was not divided earlier, was no match for the Ming army. The Chahar tribe, which was now divided due to civil strife, was even less likely to be a match for the Ming army.
Wei Zheng thought about it quickly and finally decided to take the remaining 7,000 men and horses to defect to Anda Khan of Tumut's tribe.
For him, as long as he has soldiers, he can get a good future for himself. If he continues to stay in the Chahar tribe, he will never escape the liquidation!
Just when he made up his mind to gather his soldiers and retreat, he heard a dull and long horn sound.
'Woo————'
When Wei Zhengsu heard the horn sound, his expression suddenly changed, because he knew that the opponent had officially launched an attack.
Soon, a black torrent, mixed with unstoppable power, attacked his central army. This Ming army was the more than 4,000 elite cavalry that had been used to defend the central army earlier.
Seeing this situation, Wei Zhengshu couldn't help but change his expression, because he didn't expect that the other party would be so indifferent and even send out all the elite cavalry to protect the Chinese army.
Although the current situation was not optimistic, Wei Zhengsu still pulled out the scimitar from his waist and gave the correct order!
"The cavalry rush up and entangle them, don't let them get close!"
"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow!"
Soon, the orders issued by Wei Zhengsu were accurately conveyed to the ears of the soldiers by word of mouth from officers at all levels.
After receiving the order, the more than two thousand elite Tatar cavalry responsible for guarding the Chinese army immediately rushed towards the direction of the Ming army.
But when they were halfway through the charge, they found that the Ming soldiers tightened their reins one after another, immediately took off the muskets from their backs, and began to load ammunition.
"Whoever raises the blunderbuss and releases it without orders, behead him!"
At this moment, Wang Shuo looked at the Tatar cavalry charging towards him and gave deep instructions to the soldiers around him.
"One hundred steps, eighty steps, sixty steps..."
Wang Shuo kept silently thinking about the enemy's position away from him. When the opponent's cavalry rushed to a distance of less than 60 steps from his own side, Wang Shuo swung down the Yan Fei Dao in his hand with all his strength.
"put!"
'Bang bang, bang bang, bang bang! '
The deafening sound of firecrackers, like thunder, rang in everyone's ears, and immediately after, a white and pungent smoke filled the air.
The sound of cannons sounded, and soon a large number of Tatar cavalry fell down. Seeing that the Ming army only fired one round of cannons, which caused such huge casualties, the remaining Tatar cavalry had no choice but to Bite the bullet and keep rushing forward.
Because if they choose to retreat at this moment, they will become a living target for the Ming army. The Ming army can catch up with them one by one and take away their lives with the Yanling sword in their hands.
Soon, the two sides were fighting hand to hand. From time to time, soldiers from both sides fell off their horses and were trampled into pulp.
Although Wei Zhengsu had already dispatched fine cavalry to resist the enemy's attack, at this moment, his face became increasingly gloomy, because the opponent's cavalry was extremely powerful in combat, and his own cavalry was no match at all!
Wei Zhengsu could only watch helplessly as the Jingqi he built with all his strength was massacred by the Ming army.
Based on the current situation, Wei Zhengsu could clearly see that the Ming army on the opposite side was mostly composed of veterans, and they were all battle-hardened elites.
"Damn it, how could such a powerful Ming army appear here!"
"You guys just wait for me, I'll take note of this grudge quickly!"
Just when Wei Zhengsu was about to grit his teeth and retreat, more than 3,000 Tatar soldiers suddenly appeared in the distance. They were still serving as the front army this time, and Amutai and Tumaikan were responsible for commanding them.
Behind them, there were more than 8,000 Ming soldiers in robes and belts commanded by Yang Xuan himself.
When Wei Zhengsu saw the two men appearing at the same time, an ominous premonition suddenly flashed through his heart, and he immediately issued an order for the entire army to retreat.
But soon, as before, the other party sent out several soldiers with extremely loud voices and started shouting.
"Brothers opposite, listen up. The Ming army came here this time under the entrustment of the Great Khan..."
After the shouting was completed, perhaps to increase credibility, Tumaihan and Amutai immediately ordered their men to bring up a few of the Tatar soldiers who had surrendered not long ago.
The few surrendered soldiers who were brought up also joined the ranks of persuasion.
Soon, Wei Zhengsu discovered an extremely difficult problem - his troops had begun to disobey his command!
When the order for the entire army to retreat was issued, most of the soldiers were still in a wait-and-see attitude, looking hesitant.
At this moment, when Yang Xuan, who was in command of the Chinese army, saw this situation, he immediately pulled out the long sword from his waist and gave instructions in a deep voice.
"Transmit this general's order and attack with the entire army!"
Yang Xuan's order was quickly passed down step by step by officers at all levels.
What followed was a deafening cry of killing. Amutai looked at Wei Zhengsu not far away, with hatred in his eyes. He clenched the scimitar in his hand and pointed at Wei Zhengsu. In the direction of Zhengspeed, he said in a deep voice.
"Warriors, the time has come to wash away your shame. Kill me!"
"kill!"
At this moment, the elite cavalry of the Ming army earlier got rid of the entanglement of the Tatar cavalry and came straight towards the Chinese army where Wei Zhengsu was, and the shouts of killing resounded through the sky.
