Except for a few of the Mongolian cavalry in the Qing army, most of them came to pick up the bargains and gain benefits. They would often run away as soon as they encountered danger and would not fight to the death for the Qing army.
Although there were many arrows fired from the Tiger Flag, not many of the Mongolian cavalry in the Qing army were actually killed on the spot. Instead, more Mongolian cavalry were injured, temporarily unstable, and fell off their horses.
Among galloping horses, falling off a horse is often a worse outcome than being attacked and killed on horseback.
The Tiger Flag only used one round of cavalry shooting, and the Mongolian cavalry in the Qing army was directly defeated, leaving the Guan Ning army's cavalry scattered and fleeing for their lives.
The Qing army's attacking formation was smashed into pieces under the rampage of the fleeing Mongolian cavalry, especially the Mongolian cavalry, which was completely in chaos.
More lives were lost at the hands of our own people than those killed by the Tiger Flag.
Thousands of Mongolian cavalry fled on the battlefield, which directly caused more Mongolians to flee, and the Guan Ning Army's cavalry was exposed to the Tiger Banner Cavalry Division.
Zu Dashou has his own little plan.
He asked the cavalry of his Guan Ning Army to follow the Mongolian cavalry on the side and rear, and used the hands of the Mongolian cavalry to consume the cavalry of the Tiger Flag, thus gaining the final victory at the minimum cost.
The idea was good, but the Mongolian cavalry did not achieve the results he wanted.
As the Mongolian cavalry fled, Guan Ning's cavalry had to face the cavalry division of the Tiger Banner.
If Guan Ning's cavalry had not been elite enough and had good generals in charge, they would have discovered something was wrong with the Mongolian cavalry and immediately drove away the defeated Mongolian troops approaching from the surroundings.
"These Tartars are really useless. They are defeated as soon as they go up. They are nothing more than failure." Zu Dashou looked at the Mongolian cavalry who had fled back from defeat, his face was livid, and he kept cursing in his mouth.
Without the Mongolian cavalry as cannon fodder in front, his Guan Ning cavalry would have to make more sacrifices if he wanted to win.
"Uncle, please be quiet, the Tatars can't shout." A general from the Guan Ning Army who was following him looked around nervously.
Zu Dashou snorted and said, "What are you afraid of? Even if I shout in front of them, what can they do to me!"
Although he said this, he did not continue to call Tatars.
The general leading the troops on one side of Guan Ning's army was General Shen Tingzhi.
After joining Dajin, although he changed from a general to a general in charge, in fact, the soldiers and horses in his hands were still the same people. Even if Dajin changed into Daqing, he was still a general in command, and the soldiers and horses under his command remained unchanged.
Not all of Guan Ning's cavalry team are Han Chinese, there are also many Yiding, and the weapons in their hands are mainly short-tipped bows. Only a small number of people who are poor at bow and horse riding and shooting can use three-eyed blunderbuss.
Without the Mongolian cavalry of the Qing army, the Mongolian cavalry of the Tiger Banner Cavalry Division and the Guan Ning cavalry became face to face.
As soon as the two sides closed the distance, they started shooting arrows at each other.
In terms of armor, Guan Ning's cavalry did not suffer a disadvantage against the Mongolian cavalry of the Tiger Banner Cavalry Division, and there was also not much difference in cavalry and shooting.
During the exchange of fire, both sides suffered casualties.
However, the Mongolian cavalry has a greater numerical advantage, and in addition to these Mongolian cavalry, the Tiger Banner Cavalry Division also has armored cavalry.
While the Mongolian cavalry and Guan Ning's cavalry were shooting at each other, the armored cavalry of the Tiger Character Banner rushed up from one side.
After approaching, the armored cavalry did not fire their guns. Instead, they used the inertia of their horses to rush forward and threw short spears and spears at the crowd of Guan Ning's armored cavalry.
The Guan Ning cavalry, which had no advantage in the first place, was suddenly charged from the side by the Tiger Banner's cavalry. The pressure increased and casualties began to increase.
When Zu Dashou from behind saw this scene, his eyes turned red anxiously.
Guan Ning's cavalry was the foundation for him to gain a foothold in the Qing Dynasty. Although Guan Ning's army was numerous, it was far less important than his Guan Ning's cavalry.
"What are the Jurchens doing? Why haven't they come up yet?" When Zu Dashou saw that his Guan Ning cavalry suffered a loss, he immediately thought of the Eight Banners cavalry who were also fighting together.
On the Qing army's side, the Mongols were in the front, Guan Ning's cavalry was in the middle, and the Eight Banners cavalry, which had the smallest number, walked at the back.
It's not so much that they are going to fight together, but more like they are here to supervise the battle.
"These Jurchens are really nothing. Why don't you take action? Are you going to watch all of our Guan Ning Army die?" Wu Sangui said through gritted teeth.
Although he did not go to war with Guan Ning's cavalry, his father Wu Xiang was among the fighting teams.
The sword was blind on the battlefield, and his family was obviously at a disadvantage. As a son of a man, he was worried about his father's life.
"Uncle Zhang, go and urge the Jurchens to take action immediately, otherwise don't blame me, Guan Ningjun, for not accompanying me." Zu Dashou ordered Wu Sangui beside him.
Wu Sangui drove his horse towards the Eight Banners cavalry.
He did not go to Jierhalang, but went directly to a staff leader of the Eight Banners Cavalry.
The other party is the leader of the Eight Banners Cavalry sent by Jilharang. .
"Commander, it's time for you to take action!" Wu Sangui, who came over, said speechlessly to the Jurchen counselor in front of him.
There are three levels of ginseng.
First-class and second-class counselors are equivalent to generals, while third-class counselors are equivalent to guerrilla generals.
The staff leader in front of Wu Sangui was a second-class staff leader. He had been fighting enemies on the battlefield since he was an old slave. Wu Sangui was just a brat in his eyes.
"Wait, it's not time yet." The Jurchen ginseng leader replied to Wu Sangui.
If it weren't for the fact that Zu Dashou and Guan Ningjun were behind Wu Sangui, he would have ignored them if they had been approached by ordinary people with Han military flags.
"How long do we have to wait? Do we have to wait until all of our Guan Ning army is dead before we take action?" Wu Sangui asked loudly.
Although the Eight Banners soldiers are powerful, their Guan Ning army is not bad either.
Wu Sangui was the top-ranked general in the middle platoon of Guan Ning's army. He held a Guan Ning cavalry in his hand. Facing a commander of the Eight Banners, his aura was no weaker than the opponent's.
The Jurchen ginseng leader glanced at Wu Sangui and said, "What do you know? You will naturally take action when it's time to take action."
"Fart, don't you understand something? You want Guan Ning's cavalry to fight to the death with the Tiger Thieves' cavalry, so that you can take advantage in the end." Wu Sangui said angrily.
In the future, if he can reach the position of commander-in-chief of the army in Liaodong, he will naturally not be able to get to the position by relying on shadow.
He can see the little thoughts of the other party at a glance. The other party can at best tease someone who doesn't understand anything.
The Jurchen ginseng leader turned his head to the side and ignored Wu Sangui.
"Why don't you say anything! I feel guilty." Wu Sangui stared angrily at the Jurchen counselors in front of him and threatened, "If you Jurchens don't take action, our Guan Ning army will no longer accompany you, and you will handle the rest on your own. beat."
