Mu Tai was thrown off his horse and fell heavily to the ground.
However, the other person was already dead and could not feel pain when he fell to the ground. However, the war horse he was riding jumped forward a few steps due to inertia and fell to the ground.
This volley from the Tiger Crouching Cannon caused the lives of more than a dozen slave riders at the front.
boom! boom! boom!
A series of firecrackers sounded again, and another five or six slaves fell to the ground.
There were only fifty or sixty slave knights, and in just a few breaths, more than twenty people were killed.
Almost all the people who died were those who rushed to the front, which directly caused the front of the slave cavalry team to be forcibly broken, leaving a large gap vacant.
The tiger-character flag soldiers hiding behind the cart continued to attack the remaining slave riders.
The Tiger Crouching Cannon takes a longer time to reload, but the reloading of the Fire Gun is much easier, so the Fire Gun always maintains a state of constantly attacking the slave thieves on the opposite side.
The Nuqi side did not retreat after the death of Mu Tai and others. Instead, they insisted on continuing to charge towards the Nanguandao Fort in front.
However, the corpses of more than twenty people and war horses fell in front of them, which greatly slowed down their charging speed. They did not even rush through the gap left by the cart in front, and they suffered another heavy blow.
Crouching tiger cannons and muskets all hit from behind the cart.
The remaining dozens of slave riders once again lost a lot of people, and only a dozen of them were left. Seeing that the situation was not going well, they turned their horses' heads and retreated.
As they were escaping, several more slave riders were hit by muskets fired from behind, causing them to fall off their horses.
"Bah! I thought it was so awesome, but it was a waste of the arrangements behind the captain." A Tiger Flag soldier behind the cart spat towards the outside of the cart with disdain.
He joined the Tiger Flag from Changshan Island.
After training, he became a soldier of the Tiger Flag. Before that, he was a Ming soldier stationed on Changshan Island.
The slave thieves who used to be so talkative in the Ming army now seemed to him to be just that, not as powerful as they had been boasted about when they were on Changshan Island.
A dozen slaves fled back to Ebilun.
Once Mu Tai died, E Bi Lun became their only backbone.
"Asshole, who asked you to come back? You were only one step away from storming into the Nanguandao Fort. It's all useless slaves like you. You actually backed down at the last moment. You people are not worthy of being my warriors." Ebi. Lun raised the whip in his hand and whipped it on the slave who was retreating in front of him.
Hiding the panic in his heart.
Mu Tai's death made him dare to be afraid for the first time.
Mu Tai followed his Ama in many battles in the east and west. He used to be Bagala of the Zhenglan Banner and was a top-ranked warrior in the entire Zhenglan Banner.
Such a powerful person in his mind died in front of Nanguandao Fort. One of E Bilun's legs began to tremble.
He was a little arrogant along the way, but he was not stupid. At this time, there was only fear in his heart.
If Mu Tai hadn't left him behind, he might have been the one who died in front of Nanguandao Fort right now.
"Master, what should we do next?" A cavalryman with the Zhenglan flag asked Xiang Ebilun, interrupting Ebilun from beating others.
"What to do?" This sentence exposed E Bilun's immaturity.
He has been loved by Mang Gurtai since he was a child. He rarely has the opportunity to go to the battlefield, and even when he goes to the battlefield, he stays with Mang Gurtai most of the time.
Now that I'm facing adversity, I suddenly don't know what to do.
The cavalryman from the Zhenglan Banner asked: "Should we attack Nanguandao Fort? Or should we wait for General Tong and the others?"
"Tong Yangxing? Yes, wait for him to come over. If he hadn't wasted time, Mu Tai would not have died." E Bi Lun's ability to blame others is self-taught.
】
Before Tong Yangxing could come over, he was already taking the blame for Mu Tai's death.
Facing the gate of Nanguandao Fort that was wide open in front of him, E Bilun no longer had the courage to charge again, and could only watch the defecting Han soldiers flee into Nanguandao Fort.
Perhaps because he heard the sound of cannons, Tong Yangxing did not let E Bilun wait for too long, and rushed over with his men.
"Ebilun, what's going on now?"
As soon as he arrived, Tong Yangxing noticed the Nanguan Fort with the gate wide open and the cart in front of the Nanguan Fort. He asked E Bilun, who had arrived earlier, about the situation.
E Bilun said with a dark face: "If it weren't for you arriving so late, Mu Tai would not have died. I would tell Ama that it was because of your delay that the defecting Han soldiers fled into the Nanguandao Fort."
"What do you mean?" Tong Yangxing's face darkened, "I and my men have been chasing the defecting Han soldiers in the forest. I don't even know how Mu Tai died. Why should I say that it was because of me that Mu Tai died?" The reason why those defecting Han soldiers fled into Nanguandao Fort was because you did not stop them."
The reason why he allowed E Bilun's behavior along the way was to give Mang Gurtai face.
E Bi Lun, who is not even a Beizi, also wants to ride on his head, Tong Yang Xing, to show off his power. After all, he is also a first-class general officer of Dai Jin.
Seeing that a Han dared to refute him, E Bilun's face sank and he said: "You, Tong Yangxing, went into the woods to chase the defecting Han soldiers, but in the end, all the defecting Han soldiers fled into the Nanguandao Fort. If you were careful Go and chase them, how could they escape into the South Guam Fort and stop them all in the woods."
"So E Bilun, you are going to pour all the dirty water on me?" Tong Yangxing stared coldly at E Bilun in front of him.
E Bilun snorted coldly and said, "Why do you mean I'm throwing dirty water on you? The problem is all yours, and I dare to say that even in front of Khan."
"Okay, I want to see if you can splash E Bilun's dirty water on me." Tong Yangxing glared at E Bilun fiercely, then turned to the subordinates beside him and said, "Let's go back."
With that said, he left without looking back.
Even Zhenglan Banner commanders like Mu Tai died here at Nanguandao Fort. He did not think that he could take Nanguandao Fort with a few hundred Han soldiers.
Now that the defecting Han soldiers have fled into Nanguandao Fort, it is useless to stay here. It is better to return to the camp earlier.
Tong Yangxing and the Han soldiers he brought left quickly.
"Master, what should we do next?" a Zhenglan Banner cavalry asked Xiang Ebilun.
E Bilun glanced in the direction of Nanguandao Fort and said with an ugly face: "Why are you still here? Go back!"
Even the Zhenglan Banner Batulu like Mu Tai is dead. He is not willing to follow in the footsteps of Mu Tai. As Mang Gurtai's most beloved son, he still has a lot of years left to enjoy.
Soon, E Bilun and a group of cavalrymen from Zhenglan Banner also left.
The bodies of Mu Tai and others in front of Nanguandao Fort seemed to have been forgotten. No one from the Zhenglan Banners who had left had asked to collect the bodies for them.
