Hutu, with the remaining four hundred people, had successfully entered behind the shield.
The other Oirats saw that they could not pull down the shield at all. These shields have wheels, and they were pulled away from the place and walked forward for more than fifty meters. Already separated from the soldiers in the Beijing camp.
And those Oirat soldiers who took the opportunity to get under the barbed wire and jump in from the shields were already fighting with the Beijing camp.
Gushi Khan and others, with five thousand guards, stood high above and watched the battle in the distance.
Although the shield array was pulled away, the barbed wire and chains were still maintained, and the whole moved forward without falling or falling over.
"Stop pulling, dismount, all go over and fight with them." The Taijis gave orders one after another.
There is no point in continuing to pull these shields, they are a barrier no matter how far they are pulled. Now that we are separated from the infantry of the Beijing camp, there is no one to defend with shields, so we just get through.
A large number of Oirat cavalry dismounted and got under the barbed wire fence.
They shouted wildly and rushed towards the Beijing camp.
Soon the Beijing camp of more than 10,000 people and more than 20,000 Oirat dismounted infantry were fighting together.
The Oirat people discovered that they should carry heavy weapons for smashing. They severely lacked effective armor-breaking tools. Only a few of them carried caltrops and hammerheads behind their horses.
In fact, the page hammer is more effective against plate armor. If you don't have a hammer, a mace and flail, or a metal mace will also work.
Unfortunately, most of them only have iron-clad horse sticks as blunt weapons. It's okay to use a horse stick to defeat a wolf, but forget about using plate armor.
The vast majority of people still only carry machetes. After all, desert Mongolia now is not as good as when they rose. At that time, many Mongolian cavalry carried small axes. The ax is very useful for breaking armor. It can be thrown or swung to chop plate armor.
Even if it cannot be cut open in one or two blows, the armor surface will be deformed, causing fractures and internal injuries. In Europe, we saw plate armor against the Polish, Lithuanian and Hungarian coalition forces, but they were all taken off by the Mongols with lassoes and trampled to death with horse hooves.
Among them, less than 30% carry hammerheads and caltrops.
But Yang Fan's soldiers each have a fire axe. It's all carried on the back. This is a necessary tool for them to set up camp. Very useful for cutting down trees.
Of course, it's also very easy to use this to break armor. This thing was transmitted from modern times. One of its uses is to cut down security doors and break barriers in case of fire.
At this time, Jingying put the crossbow on his back and picked up the Yanling knife or fire axe. The three-eyed gunman picked up the three-eyed gun as a smashing weapon. The spearmen were in groups of six, forming a triangle to assassinate.
Although the Oirat people had the upper hand, the Beijing camp formed a squad fighting formation. They formed a triangle, back to back, not giving the enemy a chance to hit the back of their heads. Frontal hard steel, they are not afraid of anyone.
Hara Huji was surprised to see that even though the Oirat cavalry dismounted and rushed in, the formation of the Beijing camp changed into a formation of three, six, or ten people in a short time. They weren't panicked at all.
They gave up their defenses, but there was no disintegration or confusion. Instead, they reorganized into a smaller formation.
Although they lost the cover of the shield formation, they abandoned the general cannon and the Franco machine gun and formed three and three formations with pure infantry.
These formations, with a minimum of three people, form a triangle back to back. No matter where you attack from, you are facing the enemy head-on. There is no chance to attack from behind.
The Oirat people originally imagined that they were tall and powerful and would cause chaos to the enemy as soon as they rushed in. As long as they enter a chaotic battle, they have the advantage of fighting. They are not only strong but also flexible. They can move quickly and quickly. They are good at getting behind the enemy and attacking them.
The person in front attracts the enemy's attention, and while they are fighting, he attacks them from behind in the chaos. This is their invincible method. If the trap is messed up on the battlefield, you can't take care of your back. I just want to kill the enemy in front of me.
But these Beijing camps are so extraordinary. They seem to have the same mind, as long as the array is scattered. they immediately
It forms a triangular array of large and small sizes.
Even if there are only two people left, they will immediately go back to back. Don't give anyone a chance to attack from behind.
Their plate armor is thickest at the front, especially the arc-shaped breastplate, which is three millimeters thick.
The back of the plate armor, in order to reduce weight and improve mobility, is only a little over one millimeter thick.
Yang Fan stood on the high platform and used a telescope to clearly see the hard battle ahead. At this time, the competition is endurance. Whoever is more patient will win the final victory.
The Oirats had no more troops, and all their forces were thrown into the battlefield. The previous 50,000 people returned to the camp. Everyone is here now.
In addition to the personal soldiers of the Taijis, there are also five thousand cavalry. Those will not move, and the Taijis will not charge in person. There are still hundreds of thousands of people in their camp, and they will not risk themselves and their soldiers.
These people may have been heroes when they were young, but at this age, they will never take the lead and fight to the death.
Zhang Shize slapped the railing and said in surprise: "The battle below the city is over."
Yang Fan looked towards the wilderness below the city. The Haixi Mongols and the Seven Tribes of Kansai finally abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
In today's hard battle, more than 10,000 of them were first burned to death, and then more than 10,000 were killed by 30,000 Beijing troops. By now, I am exhausted from fighting and can no longer fight.
The remaining less than 20,000 people threw down their weapons, knelt down and surrendered.
If they continue to fight at this time, they will only be wiped out.
Yang Fan slapped the railing and said excitedly: "I finally got through it. I've been worried about the collapse of the Beijing camp."
Zhang Shize said: "We have won. Let the regiment train go out of the city to collect the prisoners and escort them into the city. I will go down, sort out the troops under the capital city, and personally lead the team to kill more than 20,000 Oirat people."
Yang Fan nodded, this Beijing camp would be handed over to Zhang Shize sooner or later, and he should be given more opportunities to make meritorious deeds.
It would be more justifiable for him to take over. From the perspective of his own interests, Yang Fan hoped that Zhang Shize would take over the Beijing camp.
Other candidates are not beneficial to Yang Fan.
"Go ahead and be safe. If you can't eat, don't fight hard. Pull back first. This battle will consume a lot of Oirat people. And annihilate these 50,000 miscellaneous forces. This will completely isolate the Oirat people. From now on, we will only have them. It’s our opponent. No matter how we fight, it’s easy to beat them. We have laid the foundation, which is enough to gain a foothold here. The days are long and we have to eat them one bite at a time. We continue to look for opportunities and eat them step by step.”
Zhang Shize nodded and said that he would not do anything recklessly. He got off the high platform with his own soldiers.
As a bugle blew, Zhang Shize led 1,500 cavalrymen and 10,000 regiments to assemble. Then, he opened the gate of Beicheng Wengcheng and rushed out.
