The Mongolian cavalry was still about two miles away from Lao Wu and the others, so they began to slow down consciously.

"They are really coming for us." A rider next to Lao Wu said, "The other party has more than 300 cavalry at least, and they look like they are mostly herdsmen."

"Get ready to take action," Lao Wu said.

The distance between the two sides was less than two miles, but the Mongolian cavalry did not stop. The experienced Lao Wu knew that this was preparation before charging.

Obviously the other party is going to launch an attack on their convoy.

"Leave a small group of people to guard the convoy, and the rest will form a formation and follow me to meet the enemy." Lao Wu shouted.

More than a hundred cavalrymen separated a ten-man cavalry team to stay around the convoy. All the remaining cavalrymen, led by Lao Wu, rushed towards the Mongolian cavalry in front.

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry also rushed over.

The distance between the two sides was less than two miles, which was suitable for the horses to charge.

swish swish

A rain of arrows streaked across the sky, shooting towards Lao Wu and the others.

There was a distance of more than 200 steps between the two sides, and the Mongols' soft bows had a short range, causing most of the arrows to fall in the open space in front.

Clusters of arrows were stuck on the ground, and their tail feathers were still trembling slightly.

After shooting one arrow, the Mongolian cavalry skillfully took out the second arrow feather, hung the string and drew the bow to aim at Lao Wu and the others.

The distance between the two sides is less than a hundred steps.

bang bang bang

A series of muskets were fired.

Many of the Mongolian cavalrymen in the front row fell off their horses, and their horses whined. They bent their knees and fell to the ground while galloping, and the Mongolian cavalrymen on horseback were thrown away.

After one round of cavalry cannon fire, at least twenty Mongolian cavalry and war horses would be hit.

Ding ding ding

A series of arrows were shot from the hands of the Mongolian cavalry who had not been hit by the musket. Most of the arrows fell into the cavalry team of the Tiger Flag, making a series of sounds of hitting the armor.

"kill"

Lao Wu shouted loudly, raised the saber in his hand, and rushed towards the Mongolian cavalry in front of him.

The cavalry guns that had been missed had no time to reload, so all the Tiger Banner cavalry drew their sabers and rushed over with Lao Wu.

The cavalry on the Mongolian side all picked up their weapons.

In an instant, the two cavalry teams collided, and the sounds of fighting and shouting could be heard far away.

Lao Wu held a saber in his hand and charged forward without looking back. The saber in his hand kept slashing at all the Mongolians in front of him.

Most of these Mongolian cavalry did not wear armor, and wore at most a leather jacket. Some Mongolians wore cotton armor that had been stored for unknown ages. It was so black that the original color could no longer be seen, and the weapons in their hands were even more diverse. Many of the weapons were already covered in rust, and there were even weapons with gaps.

This kind of protection was like a thin piece of paper that could be cut through with the saber in Lao Wu's hand. There was no opponent who could block his blow.

The more than 300 Mongolian cavalry had an advantage in numbers, but they were completely helpless when faced with the breastplates of the Tiger Banner cavalry. Soon the Tiger Banner cavalry, led by Lao Wu, killed one of them.

Lao Wu pulled the reins, turned the horse's head, and raised the saber dripping with blood again.

"kill"

With a cry of kill, all the Tiger Banner cavalry raised their swords again to kill the Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side.

Many Mongolian cavalry did not recover from the first fight. In the past, they bullied the Han people, but this time the Han people killed them.

Among these Mongolian cavalry, there are a few armored cavalry with iron helmets and leather armor, and the weapons in their hands are also bright and bright. They should be the retired soldiers around Taiji.

At the beginning, the few armored cavalry were able to restrain the herdsmen, but as dozens of herdsman corpses appeared on the ground, the herdsmen collapsed completely.

Before the tiger-shaped flag cavalry could charge forward for the second time, the herdsmen fled in all directions on horseback.

No matter how the Mongolian armored cavalry tried to stop them, and even killed several herdsmen who wanted to escape, it was of no avail. In the end, even they themselves had to flee for their lives.

Lao Wu led the cavalry team to chase for a while, then led the team back.

Some ownerless horses stayed on the earliest battlefield, and some undead herdsmen let out intermittent wails.

Lao Wu said to the cavalry on the side, "Hurry up and clean the battlefield. Take away the intact horses. Kill the injured horses that cannot be treated and take away their meat."

"Where are the injured Mongolian cavalry?" asked the rider next to him.

Lao Wu glanced at the Mongolian cavalry who was still wailing not far away and said, "Since they plan to attack us, we don't have to show mercy and kill them all."

"Yes." The rider agreed.

After a short time, all the wailing sounds disappeared, leaving only the pungent smell of blood.

The ownerless horses were gathered together and led back to the team by several riders.

The battlefield was cleared and the convoy was back on the road.

The guys from the Fan Family Chamber of Commerce who were still complaining at first have become more and more honest after the fight just now.

When they arrived near the Dahei River, people sent by Lao Wu and Zhang Sancha picked up.

Zhang Sancha sent a squadron of soldiers and several four-wheel-drive vehicles loaded with Crouching Tiger Cannons.

The captain of the warrior squadron is Pan Yi. When the two met and saw the blood stains on Lao Wuyi, he expressed concern, "We encountered horse bandits on the road."

"I met a Mongolian cavalry and had a fight." Lao Wu said in a relaxed tone.

Pan Yi asked "whose person?"

Lao Wu nodded and said, "We captured a man alive. He is a herdsman under Su Nang's command. The soldiers who brought them here were soldiers under Su Nang's tent. It must be Fanji Chamber of Commerce who got anxious and persuaded Su Nang to treat us." The cavalry took action."

Pan Yi agreed and said, "It seems that they want to break our blockade on Fanji Chamber of Commerce and let Fanji Chamber of Commerce's fleet transport freight to Bansheng City again."

"They want to dream of transporting cargo to Bansheng City," Lao Wu sneered.

Before the convoy sent by the Fanji Chamber of Commerce to the grassland left the border fort, the information was obtained by the secret agents of the Tiger Flag Intelligence Department and sent to the grassland in advance.

Every time Fan Ji Chamber of Commerce's convoy left the border fort, it was equivalent to falling into the hands of Lao Wu and his cavalry team.

Although they only have more than a hundred cavalry, on the grassland, as long as they are not surrounded by others, there is nothing others can do to them.

Just like this, a cavalry team of more than a hundred people wandered on the grassland, which was enough to pose a fatal threat to the convoy of Fanji Chamber of Commerce out of the border fort.

The fifth company handed over the goods and people to Pan Yi, and then left Daheihe with his cavalry.

Those armored knights who were scattered by Lao Wu also returned to Bansheng City at this time.

"Trash, they are all a bunch of trash. More than 300 people can't even defeat over 100 people." Su Nang angrily pointed at Wo Lunkuo's nose and cursed.

Wo Lunkuo lowered his head and said, "It's all my subordinates' fault. I didn't expect that our three herdsmen couldn't defeat a cavalryman with a tiger flag. If I had known this was the case, I would have sent our armored cavalry."

There are two types of cavalry on the grassland. One is the off-duty cavalry, who is also the bodyguard that Taiji keeps by his side. The other is ordinary herdsmen who herd animals in peacetime and bring their own soldiers to fight with Taiji in wartime.
