At this time, Hutch cannot advance or retreat! If you advance, the casualties will be heavy. If you retreat, the casualties may be even worse! Especially in retreat, just trampling on each other will kill no less people than those who die in frontal combat! Therefore, retreat has always been the most difficult command art!
In particular, it is impossible for this scattered Mongolian cavalry to display the essence of this retreat tactic! I'm afraid that as soon as he calls for retreat, his own cavalry will be in chaos!
At this time, he hated the two An Da who had just become sworn brothers! We agreed to come together and do it together, but I started to do it first, but there was no movement on the east and west sides! Thinking of this, he could only grit his teeth and hold on, trying to wait for the other two teams to attack together, and maybe they could win!
Just when the firearms thought of this, artillery and firecrackers from the east and west directions started firing one after another! Hutch was overjoyed when he heard this sound! At this moment, he was very grateful to the two Andas! He immediately said to the guards beside him: "Take your men and charge for a while! My two Anda have arrived. Attacked from three sides, we will definitely be able to break through the Ming army's camp!"
The Mongolian cavalry around him all wore standard leather armor. At a glance, you could tell that they were definitely the elite of the Mongolian cavalry, definitely not comparable to those herdsmen! Moreover, they were very methodical in executing orders. After receiving the order, they immediately dispersed, leading the large group of cavalry who were originally running at a small pace to speed up and run forward!
Since the death of Genghis Khan, Mongolia's military system has also undergone many changes, that is, with a unified political power, a unified army will inevitably appear. Therefore, the Mongols also imitated the Han people in the Central Plains and formed their own army.
However, due to the special circumstances on the grassland, they arranged them back to their respective tribes after forming the army. Only when going on foreign campaigns would the Great Khan be anxious to assemble these troops. On weekdays, the Great Khan only commands the standing army at hand.
Therefore, each Mongolian tribe will have a group of soldiers wearing standard leather armor, which represents their identity as a regular army. Once an order from the Great Khan is received, they will return to the formal system to fight. So these people are also the mainstay of the tribe and the strongest fighting force!
At the same time, Bahunai and Ansge did not reserve their strength, and sent out their strongest forces as soon as they came on the field! Because they knew that although they arrived at the battlefield late due to luck, the main attack was borne by Hutch. But they also know that Hutch is not easy to mess with!
If he thinks that his side is deliberately late, he is afraid that there will be resentment between the brothers in the future, which will affect the plan to expand the tribe. Therefore, the fighting in the east, west, north and west directions of the camp reached a climax instantly! For a time, the sound of artillery, the sound of firecrackers, the sound of arrows piercing the air, the shouts of people and the neighing of horses mixed together to form waves of deafening sounds!
At this time, the coaches of both sides were staring closely at the front line of the exchange of fire between the two sides, assessing their own losses and the number of opponents killed, and estimating the progress of the battle.
The Mongolian cavalry were indeed brave. They braved the intensive attacks of artillery and muskets and rushed to the base of the village wall. The first Mongolian cavalry to rush towards such a vehicle clamped down on its horse's belly, hoping that the horse could speed up to avoid the opponent's spear. At the same time, the scimitar in his right hand stretched forward as hard as he could to use the spear! But the scimitar was a bit too short after all. He reluctantly pulled out one of the spears, but the other two spears pierced the horse's neck!
Although the war horse tried hard to stop its body, it was still sliding forward under the influence of inertia! Even with both front legs stretched straight, he didn't escape death in battle! However, its sacrifice also came at a price. At least two spears were broken by the corpse of the horse!
Other soldiers who rushed over were stabbed to death and wounded by spears one after another. However, the spears guarding this vehicle were lost rapidly, and finally they could no longer be covered. Finally, a Mongolian cavalry approached this vehicle! He thrust his spurs into his horse, hoping that the horse would jump over such a vehicle!
But the front of the carriage was full of dead bodies of men and horses. The front hooves of the war horse stumbled on a horse corpse, and without fully exploding its power, it hit the carriage directly! In addition to the two wheels on the ground, the cart also has four wooden stakes nailed to the ground, which is very strong!
So the war horse didn't hit it at all when it hit it, but instead threw the cavalry out! The cavalryman rolled in the air and fell into the back of the baggage train! These are all the first people to enter the Ming army camp tonight! But when he landed, soldiers from the Wu'an Army rushed over and wanted to kill him, but
I rushed closer, only to find that his neck had been twisted into a weird shape, and his body was twitching for the last time, so I just left him alone!
At this time, the artillery fired again, sweeping down the dense crowd in front again! Now the bodies of men and horses were densely covered in front of the baggage vehicles, which completely affected the performance of the cavalry. Therefore, many Mongolian cavalry approached and simply jumped off their horses. They rushed forward with scimitars in hand, trying to climb in on foot!
Some cavalry took the opportunity to get close to the wall and throw flying claws. After grabbing the wooden wall, they wanted to turn around and use the power of their horses to tear down the wall! But no one who did this succeeded! They were either killed by firecrackers or bumped into their own family members!
So no matter what efforts they make, they are like moths flying into the flame! As long as there is fire on the Wu'an Army's defense line, the soldiers who rush closest will fall to the ground and die! And the scariest thing is that they finally realized that the big car they originally used as a breakthrough point was actually a trap!
Under the intensive attack of shotguns, no one can get through! Even if you get close, you will be stabbed to death by a spear, or forced to death by a spear, and then killed by artillery or a firecracker! Now the corpses piled up in front of the baggage vehicles are almost as high as the muzzle of the cannon, and the Mongolian cavalry cannot rely on them at all!
Seeing this situation, the three people were heartbroken and ordered to retreat almost at the same time! When the Mongolian cavalry heard the horn sound coming from behind, they immediately retreated as if they had been granted amnesty! Some people with good riding skills can even bring their injured companions back, but more people still abandon their companions and flee into the darkness!
As soon as the team withdrew, both sides were busy counting the losses of their own soldiers and supplies, and the battlefield became quiet. But then there was a series of cheers in the Wu'an Army camp! Because their losses are visible to the naked eye! In contrast, the Mongolians are not so happy!
At this time, the three tribes no longer paid attention to covering their figures. They had already fought anyway, so they all lit up torches openly, which made it easier to count the losses. As a result, the faces of the leaders of the three tribes were not very good-looking!
