These large vehicles of the Tiger Flag are somewhat like the vehicle camps used by Qi Jiajun in Jizhen. Kankantada said, "And the Tiger Flag has defeated many horse bandits relying on these carts." "
"Those horse bandits on the grassland are worthy of comparison with our Mongolian cavalry." Su Nang said coldly, "Even if the Qi Army's car camp is in front of us, they can't stop the six thousand cavalry brought by Ben Taiji."
Kancantada looked at the car formation ahead again.
He had only heard of the Qi Jiajun's car camp, but had never seen it with his own eyes. He was not sure that the car formation used by the Tiger Flag was the same car camp used by the Qi Jiajun.
"Commander, obey the order." Su Nang shouted.
Several captains came to Su Nang.
Su Nang said: "I have ordered you to lead all the troops and kill all the Han dogs in front of you!"
As the order was issued, thousands of Mongolian cavalry galloped towards the Tiger Flag.
Su Nang and Kankantada did not join the large group of Mongolian cavalry to charge, but stayed where they were and watched the battlefield ahead.
Behind the two of them, there was also a Mongolian cavalry, numbering about a thousand people.
Thousands of war horses were galloping, and the rumble of horse hooves could be heard in the ears, and the earth seemed to tremble.
"I really don't know who gave them the courage to fight with us Mongolian warriors outside the city." Su Nang said contemptuously.
Kankantada watched the iron weapons on his side getting closer and closer to the vehicle formation of the Tiger Flag, and frowned slightly. He also couldn't understand why the people of the Tiger Flag gave up their advantages and came to fight with the Mongolians outside the city. Field battle.
The Mongols have always fought against the Ming army in field battles. In the past, when the Mongols came to the Ming to hunt grass and valleys, the Ming people could only rely on the city walls to deal with them.
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
The sound of artillery suddenly sounded, interrupting Kancantada's meditation.
"I thought there would be many cannons, but it turns out there are only a few. It seems that all the cannons for the Tiger Flag were sent to Daheihe, but there are no cannons in my hometown." Su Nang sneered.
As the gunfire sounded, there were casualties among the galloping Mongolian cavalry.
Kankantada looked ahead and said: "No matter how powerful the Tiger Flag's cannons are, these few guns alone cannot stop the charge of our Mongolian army."
After the sound of cannons, the momentum of the Mongolian cavalry's attack was blocked, and soon they were followed by the Mongolian cavalry, who filled the positions left vacant due to casualties.
However, the sound of cannons sounded again, and still only a few cannons were fired.
Seeing that the Tiger Flag really only had these few cannons, Su Nang and Kankantada were no longer worried.
Although the fire from a few cannons would cause casualties to the Mongols, compared to a cavalry team of four to five thousand people, such casualties were not conspicuous, and the damage to the thousands of charging cavalry was not significant.
Kankantada believed that the shelling of the Tiger Flag would not last more than a few rounds before their Mongolian cavalry would break through the Tiger Flag's vehicle array and begin to massacre those hiding behind the vehicle array.
Su Nang pointed with his finger in the direction of the sound of the cannon and said: "After killing all the Han dogs in front of me, I will take away those iron cannons and take them to Daheihe, and use them to attack the Tiger Flag itself." The fort."
"Your method is very good, but these cannons are very heavy and it is very troublesome to bring them back. It is better to grab more valuables and bring them back." Kancantada pursed his lips.
When they come to the Ming Dynasty, they naturally can't return empty-handed. Dealing with the tiger-character flag is just one of them. They also have to go to the Ming Dynasty to clear the grass.
Su Nang said in a relaxed tone: "Catch more Han slaves and let these Han slaves carry these cannons. Since the Tiger Flag can transport the cannons to the grassland, Bentai Ji can do the same."
Kankantada saw that Su Nang was determined to take away the cannons of the Tiger Flag, so he stopped trying to persuade him.
Although he looked down upon the iron cannons of the Ming Dynasty, he felt that these cannons were still somewhat useful if they were used to deal with the Tiger Flag's forts in Dahei River.
The large group of Mongolian cavalry was getting closer and closer to the car formation in front. The sound of cannons sounded from time to time, but there were only a few of them, so it was difficult to cause much harm to the Mongolian cavalry.
"Captain, most of the Mongolian cavalry are within range." A gunner said next to Hu Guangyi.
"Wait a minute." Hu Guangyi held up a monocular telescope in his hand.
The gunner said: "If we wait any longer, the Mongolian cavalry rushing in front will reach the car formation."
"I said, wait a minute." Hu Guangyi repeated it again, his hand holding up the monocular trembling slightly.
After joining the Tiger Banner for so long, this was the first time he faced so many cavalry charges. He was extremely nervous. He was afraid that the artillery team he led could not cause heavy damage to the Mongolian cavalry and drag down the soldiers behind the car array. Team.
The gunner next to him looked anxious, but Hu Guangyi didn't give the order, and he didn't dare to convey the order privately.
"Closer, closer, faster, closer." Hu Guangyi muttered.
Just when the Mongolian cavalry at the front was only a few hundred steps away from the car formation, Hu Guangyi suddenly shouted: "Fire the guns, fire the guns! I'll kill these bastards hard."
The gunner on the side received the order and waved the flag in his hand.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of cannons was like thunder on a sunny day, tearing the sky apart.
The cannon fell into the middle of the Mongolian cavalry team like water.
The Mongolian cavalry at the forefront noticed that the sound of cannons had increased, their ears were ringing, and the horses under them became a little difficult to control.
Fortunately, the Mongols were very skilled in riding and quickly controlled their horses and continued to charge forward.
The middle and rear areas of the several thousand Mongolian cavalry were the hardest hit areas by artillery bombardment.
Sixty four-pound cannons and six-pound cannons fired almost at the same time. The place where the cannons fell instantly cleared the surrounding Mongolian cavalry, leaving only flesh and blood and corpses on the ground.
After the shelling of the thousands of charging Mongolian troops, the front and rear of the team began to lose touch.
Some Mongolian cavalry who were lucky enough to escape the cannons were stunned. They saw a bloody scene in front of them. The smell of blood filled the air. Many Mongolians lay on their horses and vomited.
The war horse panicked and began to stop moving forward. The horse's hooves trampled on the spot, bringing up dark red mud stained with blood.
After one round of shelling, there was only a short pause, and then the second round of shelling started again.
The cannons used solid bullets, and the iron balls turned into beautiful arcs and fell into the ranks of the Mongolian cavalry again.
Lives were taken away by cannons, leaving corpses and the screams of the injured behind.
More and more Mongolian cavalry began to stop moving forward, frightened by the sight before them.
But the cannons would not stop because they stopped. In just a moment, the sixty iron cannons roared again.
The Mongolian cavalry who witnessed the tragic situation around them began to retreat, but there were too many cavalry following them, and it was not easy to retreat. For a while, the middle and rear sections of the Mongolian cavalry team became confused.
Many Mongolians who were unable to evade were not killed by the cannons, but were knocked under the horses by their companions. Before they could get up, they were trampled to pieces by the chaotic horse hooves around them.
