Fan Hong leaned half of his body on the cart, his legs were shaking constantly, and he stammered, "The people of the Tiger-Tiger Flag actually dare to fight against the Mongols. They are not afraid of being blamed by Su Nangtaiji."
The scene of fighting in the distance can be seen clearly from Fan Ji's motorcade.
As the manager of Fan Ji's caravan, Fan Hong was so frightened that his face turned pale and bloodless, and his body was shaking non-stop.
He had been to the grassland several times when he was young, and had experienced fights, but those were fights with horse bandits, and they were far less numerous than this time.
Now that he is old, he has long lost the vitality of his youth. Seeing such a scene of brutal fighting, he can't wait to return to Zhangjiakou immediately.
What made him regret the most was that he shouldn't have let Master Qin and the others leave. If Master Qin and the others were here, they would be able to rely on them more at this moment.
"Master Fan Fan, let's run away"
A head emerged from under the cart and stammered to Fan Hong.
"We can't leave." Fan Hong said with a pale face, "No matter how fast we escape, we can't run faster than the cavalry of the Tiger Flag. Now we only need General Wo Lunkuo to defeat the people of the Tiger Flag, so that we can have a chance to survive."
After speaking, he carefully looked towards the fighting in the distance.
The Mongolian cavalry and the armored cavalry of the Tiger Flag collided like two torrents. Both sides held their own weapons and greeted each other.
The Mongolian cavalry brought by Wo Lunkuo can be regarded as the elite cavalry of Tumote. They are somewhat brave. Even before the close fight, dozens of cavalry were killed in the hands of the armored cavalry with the Tiger Flag, but they still did not lose their fight. courage.
There are dozens of Mongolian cavalry wearing leather armor and iron helmets. More Mongolian cavalry wear leather hats. The weapons in their hands are mainly riding bows and scimitars. A few cavalry use long wooden poles. spear.
On the Tiger Flag side, everyone wears plate armor, iron helmets on their heads, and holds sabers forged from fine iron in their hands. Almost everyone is carved from the same mold, and their armor all looks the same.
The Mongolian cavalry bows could not leave even a white mark on the plate armor of the Tiger Flag. Only an arrow shot around the eyes could hurt the armored cavalry.
And when those scimitars struck the iron-like plate armor, they would leave at most a scratch and could not hurt the cavalry inside the plate armor at all.
The fight between the two sides was completely one-sided.
One by one, the Mongolian cavalry were knocked off their horses by the armored cavalry of the Tiger Flag with their sabers. The armored cavalry with plate armor protecting their vital parts were rarely injured by the Mongolian cavalry.
Even if some of the armored cavalry were injured, they would rarely be seriously injured and they could still continue to fight.
The cavalry on both sides only came into contact for a moment, and the Mongolian cavalry suffered heavy casualties. Some of them could not bear the casualties and showed signs of collapse.
After losing more than half of the Mongolian cavalry, the Mongols finally couldn't bear it anymore, collapsed completely, had no intention of fighting anymore, and began to flee.
Tan Zaiwang seized the opportunity and led the armored cavalry around him to chase behind them like sheep, constantly slashing and killing the overtaken Mongolian cavalry.
After chasing for more than three miles, he stopped with the armored cavalry around him.
"Captain, please give me a team of men. We will be able to catch up with Wo Lunkuo and others who have escaped." A cavalryman beside Tan Zaiwang said.
There were a lot of black and red blood stains on the breastplate on this man's body, and there were blood drops dripping from the tip of the saber in his hand.
Tan Zaiwang shook his head slightly and said, "There is no need to chase. With our riding skills, we are no match for these Mongolians who grew up on horses. They want to escape and it is difficult to catch up."
"What a pity." The cavalryman said bitterly.
During the previous fight, Wo Lunkuo hid behind the Mongolian cavalry and was the first to escape when the situation was bad. When the other Mongolian cavalry saw it, they were not interested in fighting and followed him to escape.
Tan Zaiwang said, "He is just the bodyguard general beside Su Nang. It doesn't matter whether he is killed or not. Our goal this time is Fan Ji's caravan."
"This guy is better off." The cavalryman slapped his thigh regretfully.
He missed the best opportunity to kill the general guarding Su Nang.
A captain of the armored cavalry squad said, "These Mongolian armored cavalry are too useless. They were defeated and defeated by us in one encounter. I used to think that these personal armored cavalry around Taiji were so powerful. Now it seems , nothing more than that.”
As he spoke, there was a hint of disdain on his face.
Tan Zaiwang nodded and said, "These Mongolian armored cavalry are indeed too weak. The Mongolian cavalry and archery ranking is so disappointing."
A nearby cavalryman who had been on the grassland for a long time said, "Tumote has been stable for too long and can no longer hold bows and arrows. The soft bows they use now cannot hurt our breastplates at all."
Tan Zaiwang nodded in agreement.
I also understood in my heart that if the Mongols were as useless as they are now, they would not have been able to occupy the great rivers and mountains of the Central Plains at the end of the Song Dynasty. They were not driven back to the grasslands until Emperor Taizu appeared.
"Niu Dazhuang, lead your team to clean the battlefield. If you encounter the Mongolians who are still alive, give them a good time. We don't want to survive." Tan Zaiwang said to a team leader beside him.
"Yes." Niu Dazhuang agreed.
After Niu Dazhuang left with a small group of cavalry, Tan Zaiwang said again, "Let's go back and pack up Fan Ji's caravan so we can hit the road."
"yes."
Several cavalry captains around agreed in unison.
Without the protection of Mongolian cavalry such as Wo Lunkuo, Fan Ji's caravan was unable to fight back against the cavalry of the Tiger Flag. The men in Fan Ji's caravan knelt down and begged for mercy.
Tan Zaiwang only killed Fan Hong, the steward of Fan Ji's motorcade, and left all the remaining Fan Ji's men untouched. He only took these Fan Ji's men back to the Dunbao in Daheihe with the motorcade.
On the way back to Daheihe, Tan Zaiwang and his cavalry were dragged down by Fan Ji's motorcade. They didn't go very fast until they met a group of soldiers coming from behind and handed Fan Ji's motorcade and the men in it over to Pan Yi. That warrior brigade.
He took his cavalry team and returned to Daheihe first.
When Wo Lunkuo returned to Bansheng City, there were less than fifty Mongolian cavalry around him.
Most of the Mongolian cavalry were lost in the battle with the Tiger Character Banner armored cavalry, and a dozen Mongolian cavalry died on the way back to Bansheng City.
Among these dozen people, only a few died due to serious injuries, and the rest froze to death in the cold night on the grassland.
When he returned to Bansheng City, the iron armor on Wo Lunkuo's body was gone. He was wearing several layers of fur jackets and fur on his head. The fingers holding the reins were so cold that they were almost as thick as a carrot head.
Everyone in Bansheng City knew Wo Lunkuo and knew that he was the personal guard general beside Su Nang.
As soon as he returned, he was immediately taken to Su Nang's residence.
The knight guarding Su Nang's residence helped him off his horse and helped him go to see Su Nang.
"Taiji, my subordinates are incompetent."
When Wo Lunkuo saw Su Nang, he immediately fell to his knees on the ground, with tears and runny nose streaming from his eyes.
Su Nang, who was sitting cross-legged behind the low table, frowned slightly and asked, "Why are you the only one who came back from Fan Ji's caravan?"
Long before Wo Lun Kuo came in, someone had already reported that only Wo Lun Kuo and some Mongolian armored cavalry who left with him returned to Bansheng City.
