And by that time they had entered a place where cattle and sheep gathered. There must be shepherds and shepherd dogs keeping vigil there. This was unavoidable. But anyway, we are already very close to the tribal settlement by then, so we can just go forward and kill them!
After receiving the report, Liu Haojia pulled out his sword and waved it, saying: "Forward!"
After receiving the order, Lao Ye rushed to the front of the team without stopping, picked up the angry wind lanterns that were blocked on three sides and led the way.
The crowd stumbled forward in the dark for a short distance. Since they were downwind, they heard the faint sound of dogs barking in front of them. This shows that they are very close to the herdsmen who are on duty at night. So without waiting for his orders, the cavalry on the left and right wings had already begun to move forward, and at the same time they began to light the torches in their hands! With the torch illuminated, the speed of the war horse was raised to the extreme!
At the same time, the fire gun soldiers also started trotting with their fire guns in hand. For these infantrymen, it is very easy to run a distance of one or two miles frequently during training. But after all, they couldn't match the speed of the war horses, and were left behind in the blink of an eye!
Once the war horse starts running, the sound cannot be blocked, and instantly the dogs barking in front become one! But it stands to reason that the shepherds should have reacted long ago, but they knew that something was wrong when they heard the sound of horse hooves!
Because not long ago, Hutch and the others came back at nightfall. The herdsmen had just fallen asleep and were busy serving these people and killing cattle and sheep to feed them. They were already exhausted, so their reaction was much slower. They waited until the cavalry came to kill them before they reacted. come over!
But these shepherds still bravely rushed out of the tent to see what happened? When they found out that the large group of cavalry was already in front of them, some of them turned around and ran away, some wanted to escape on horseback, and some bravely blew the horns!
But neither the escapees nor the trumpet blowers ended up well, they were all cut in half by the saber! But their warning voices have already spread! But what makes them die is that for the same reason, the people in the tribe are also very slow to react. When the cavalry has rushed to the edge of the tribe, they just started to gather, but those poor people can't stop the cavalry charge at all!
The settlement of a tribe is not large, because a large family can live in one yurt. And because people from two tribes suddenly joined in, the gaps between the tents were filled with new tents, which gave the cavalry an opportunity!
Each of these cavalrymen held at least two torches. After they rushed into the camp, they threw the torches and set them on fire! The tents that Mongolian herdsmen have lived in for many years have long been soaked in oil, and will burn to ashes in an instant if they encounter a torch! ap.
When the cavalry rushed into the camp, many Mongolians had already reacted. However, as soon as they came out of the tent, they were either trampled by the horses and severely injured, or they saw the sabers coming at them! Either the ropes holding the tent were cut down and then set on fire, and the people inside were trapped under the heavy felt tent and burned alive!
Moreover, these Mongolians have been comfortable for too long. They have not encountered such a situation for a long time and have no idea how to deal with it! Some people want to form a formation to resist, some want to find war horses, and some want to escape. There are also women's screams and children's cries mixed in. The entire southern part of the camp will be in chaos!
But this finally alerted the people in the northern part of the camp. When they rushed out of the tent, they found that the southern part of the tribe was on fire! Moreover, in the light of the fire, the cavalry of the Ming Army were killing and trampling on them with their horses! So they were shocked and angry and quickly prepared to assemble to fight back!
But as the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain, and how could it be so easy to assemble after being raided at night? Before they could gather together, they were already rushed to pieces by the running tribesmen! Coupled with the large group of frightened horses fighting left and right in the camp, all their thoughts of counterattack were wiped out!
By this time Hutch had also been awakened! He pushed away the woman beside him, put on his robe and rushed out. Before he could reach the entrance of the tent, his personal guards had already rushed in. The moment the door curtain opened, he could already see the fire in the camp!
Hutch immediately asked: "What's going on? Is there a fire?"
And his bodyguard said loudly with panic on his face: "It's the Ming army who came to kill them! They are in the camp.
The ground is set on fire! "
Hutch was furious when he heard this! He has always been the only one who bullies others, but today he was bullied to the extreme! He rushed out of the tent and wanted to shout to the soldiers to assemble, but the bright fire in front of him told him that the fire in the camp was already quite big and would be difficult to extinguish! Moreover, in the light of the fire, there were cavalrymen of the Ming Army going back and forth to kill, driving away the crowd, and trampling on people with their horses!
Moreover, there was a group of cavalry rushing towards him. He even saw the leading cavalryman taking off a fist-sized jar from his waist, lighting it on a torch, and throwing it over with the help of horse power! The can shattered when it hit the bottom of the tent, and the flying flames fell on the tent and burned immediately!
Hutch's eyes turned red when he saw this! However, he could still tell that there were not many cavalry on the other side, they just rushed in to create chaos when he was unprepared! He immediately raised his scimitar and shouted loudly: "Gather to me and kill these Ming troops back!"
Just at this time, Bahunai and Ansge also gathered with their soldiers. The three people immediately formed a team of sixty or seventy people, and panicked herdsmen kept approaching them, and the team became more and more crowded. Come bigger!
If he followed his idea, he should fight against the Ming cavalry, and then send people to tear down the extra tents to isolate the fire, so that these Ming troops could be defeated quickly. But before they could get into position, seven or eight war horses with their bodies on fire rushed over and crashed into the crowd, knocking them upside down. The people who had just gathered were immediately scattered again!
The soldiers of the Ming army who had just set fire took the opportunity to rush over and kill many people in the crowd. Some even pulled out short blunderbuss and shot into the crowd, completely breaking up their team! With the help of the firelight, the soldiers of the Ming Army could clearly see that there were many people gathered around the three men of Hutch. Knowing that their status was not low, someone immediately rushed over with loud shouts, obviously intending to take credit for their heads!
When I got back, I was so angry! He had never been so despised by anyone, so he got on the horse sent by his own soldiers and was about to charge forward, but suddenly there was a dense row of firecrackers on the south side of the camp! This is the infantry arriving!
