The sound of artillery in the fort kept ringing, and Mongolian armored knights died under the bombardment every moment.
As more and more armored cavalry were killed and injured, the Mongols were still unable to break through the fortress in front of them. Some Mongolian armored cavalry began to retreat, unwilling to continue the risk-taking attack.
Some centurions and thousands of captains couldn't bear to see the warriors of their tribes die in battle, and they no longer continued to force the centurions and thousands of soldiers under their command to attack.
The armor cavalry attacking from the front retreated, while Taiji, who was pressing behind, wanted to preserve his strength.
Gradually, some of the armored cavalry who were charging in front began to retreat and escape from the team. However, Taiji, who was behind the formation, saw them and did not stop them.
The armored knights took the lead in escaping, leading more and more armored knights to escape with them.
More and more people were fleeing. Some Mongolian armored knights who did not know the situation thought that their side had been defeated and chose to escape with those fleeing armored knights.
The Mongol army was instantly defeated.
At this time, those Taiji who were holding the battle realized that something was wrong, and they could no longer suppress them. In the end, the defeated army fled together.
The momentum plummeted.
Failure was like contagion. Another Mongol army was unable to attack and began to rout out of control.
The Mongolian army of tens of thousands was defeated, leaving the surrounding grasslands full of panicked Mongolian cavalry.
Squeezing, trampling, and even killing each other, many Mongolians did not die in the hands of the Tiger Flag people, but died in the hands of their own people.
There are observers behind the observation holes on the fort wall who are always watching the movements of the Mongolian army.
Seeing the defeat of the Mongolian army outside the Dunbao, the observer shouted excitedly: "We are defeated, we are defeated, the Mongols are defeated, we hold on."
"Let me take a look." A soldier on the side came up, moved his head to the observation hole, took one look, and shouted loudly, "The Mongols are really defeated, we have won."
More and more soldiers around began to squeeze towards the observation hole, wanting to take a look at the situation outside the fort.
"The artillery team continues to fight, and try to kill as many fleeing Mongolian armored cavalry as possible." Xiao He, who also saw the situation outside, gave the order calmly.
The four-pounders of the two batteries were fired continuously.
Iron balls fell on the heads of the Mongolian cavalry one after another, taking away lives.
All the firecrackers behind the fort stopped firing their firecrackers.
The fleeing Mongolian cavalry were everywhere, except in the direction of the fortress. This allowed the fire gunners to give up due to the range of the fire gun, even if they wanted to kill the enemy, which also saved gunpowder.
"Commander, go tell Zhang Yingzheng of the Mongolians' defeat." Xiao He rushed to his commanding officer, but before he could leave, he immediately said, "Forget it, you stay, I will take care of it myself." Tell Zhang Yingzheng this good news."
With that said, he turned around and walked out.
After walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and shouted to the captain of the Thousand-Man Team not far away: "Captain Yang, I leave this to you, be careful and monitor, don't let your guard down, be careful if the Mongols kill you with a carbine."
"Don't worry, Staff Officer Xiao, even if there are another 10,000 Mongolian troops, our brothers can deal with them." Captain Yang of the Thousand-Man Team said with a smile.
The battle was won and everyone was happy.
Xiao He nodded, then turned and left.
The observer behind the fort wall put his body against the observation hole again and observed the Mongolian army outside the fort through the monocular telescope in his hand. 52 Literature
Xiao He left the fort wall and came all the way to Minfu Camp.
The Minfu Camp is located in an area in the center of the Dunbao. Zhang Sancha led a thousand-man team to station here. On the one hand, he can support the soldiers at several fort walls at any time. At the same time, he can also monitor the Minfu Camp to prevent Once again, the civilian camp broke out.
As I walked quickly to Xiaohe, Minfu Camp, I noticed someone walking across from me.
"Consultant Wu, why are you here too?" Xiao He took the lead in greeting the other party.
Wu Chunguang said with a smile: "A great victory. We defeated tens of thousands of Mongolian troops over there. I came here personally to tell our camp the good news."
"This is really a rare piece of good news. It's a pity that Staff Wu can't be the best at it." Xiao He said with a smile.
Wu Chunguang looked at Xiao He, who was also looking happy in front of him, and said tentatively: "Have you also repelled the attacking Mongolian army?"
Xiao He smiled and nodded.
"Congratulations." Wu Chunguang congratulated him.
Xiao He waved his hand and said with a smile: "Hurry in and tell Zhang Yingzheng the good news. This battle is over. It is estimated that the Mongols will not dare to come again in a short time."
The two people walked together to the tent not far from the civilian husband's camp.
When they arrived at the camp, the two men saluted Zhang Sancha at the same time. Wu Chunguang spoke first and said, "Yingzheng, we have won the battle. The tens of thousands of Mongolian troops who attacked us have been defeated and fled."
"Zhang Yingzheng, our Tiger Flag has won this battle." Xiao He on the side echoed.
Zhang Sancha was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then he clapped his hands and laughed and said: "Haha, okay, I know we can definitely win this battle."
At this time, the heavy pressure in his heart was finally relieved.
Xiao He said: "This time the Mongols sent out all their troops and suffered such a huge defeat. They should not dare to come again in a short time. We can finally be stable for a while."
After the Mongolian army came to this grassland, everyone at the Tiger Banner was under great pressure, especially the senior officers of the war camp. They had many things to consider. They slept for at most two or three hours a day, but everyone survived. Dark circles under eyes.
Zhang Sancha nodded and said: "That's right. Bu Shitu sent out tens of thousands of troops to attack the camp and the fort of our Tiger Banner with the idea of taking us and the fort in one fell swoop. Now the Mongols are so Once defeated, he should know that he is no match for us."
"What Yingzheng means is that Shitu will retreat?" Wu Chunguang asked.
Zhang Sancha shook his head and said: "I can't say, but even if the Mongols retreat, they will not retreat so quickly. They will definitely think of other ways to deal with us."
"It's a pity that too few Mongolian armored cavalry died in our hands. If more than half of the Mongolian army was killed or wounded, Bu Shitu would have no choice but to retreat even if he was unwilling to do so." Xiao He said.
Zhang Sancha asked at this time: "How many Mongolians were killed or injured in your hands in this battle?"
"It should be less than a thousand. It is not clear how many Mongolians were killed or injured when they fled." Xiao He said.
Wu Chunguang also said: "I have almost the same number of people over there. The Mongolian army that came to attack Dunbao was quite large, but it was a pity that they were defeated too quickly."
An unfinished expression on his face.
It seems that if the Mongols are not defeated, he can cause more casualties to the Mongols.
"The captain of the thousand-man team that came to support Dunbao told me that Cao Guang used the car formation to cause two to three thousand casualties to the Mongols." Zhang Sancha said to the two people.
The thousand-man team that came to support the Dunbao had already arrived at the Dunbao before the Mongolian army was defeated. At the same time, they also brought news of the victory over the camp.
