"call out……"
At the same time, sharp whistles resounded throughout the battlefield. Pretending to be retreating, the artillerymen on both sides, who had also been prepared, rushed out of the range guarded by the cavalry with their Franco machine cannons.
Aiming the muzzle at the Chahar cavalry who were still in shock and praying two to three hundred meters away.
boom……
boom……
Tongues of fire spurted out.
The unique design of the Folang cannon gives it an unparalleled firing speed. All three sub-cannons can be fired within only five or six breaths.
The effective range of the Folan cannon is between 300 and 500 meters, and at this moment, the two armies are less than 300 meters apart. At such a close distance, the lethality is absolutely terrifying.
Each war horse was hit and jumped wildly because of the pain. A cavalryman was injured and fell to the ground. The cavalrymen who were kneeling and praying were trampled by the jumping war horses.
"withdraw!"
"withdraw!"
General Chahar's cavalry roared angrily, but in such a chaotic scene, let alone retreat, it would be good if he could stay on his horse.
After the Ming army completed three firings of the Fo Lang machine cannon, groups of squatting tiger artillerymen carried the squatting tiger cannon and rushed towards the chaotic cavalry.
While the man was running, the fuse of the Crouching Tiger Cannon had been ignited.
The moment the Tiger Crouching Cannon was lowered, flames spurted out, and lead bullets flew towards the Chahar cavalry under the explosion of gunpowder.
"Attack!"
"kill!"
Zhao Lejiao and He Kegang, two generals of Guan Ning's cavalry, roared angrily and led their cavalry towards the chaotic Chahar cavalry.
The man and the horse merged into one, and the three-eyed fire cannon was launched.
After a round of volleys, Guan Ning's cavalry had already approached the Chahar cavalry. Guan Ning's cavalry swung the three-eyed fire blunderbuss that had just been fired and smashed it at them.
The Chahar cavalry were scared out of their wits by the explosions in the minefield, and they were also covered by artillery and fired by firearms. Not only were they stunned, but they were at least confused, and their combat effectiveness was at a loss.
Although Guan Ning's cavalry cannot be said to be as simple as killing a pig with a sword, it is definitely the pinnacle since its establishment.
Seeing the charging Guan Ning cavalry, although the sergeants in the Warrior Battalion felt itchy and excited, they knew that their current duty was to protect the emperor's safety.
The emperor's safety was much more important than the tens of thousands of enemies they killed. Yuan Keli, Sun Chengzong, Man Gui and others had repeatedly warned them before leaving.
Screams...
The sound of war horses neighing...
The sound of weapons clashing...
It formed a "sweet" melody for miles around.
But this melody only lasted for about a quarter of an hour and ended with the evacuation of the Chahar cavalry leaving thousands of corpses behind.
"Chase!"
Looking at the fleeing Chahar cavalry, Chongzhen issued an order again.
Without the constraints of the chariot, the Ming army, which had already prepared a lot, followed Guan Ning's cavalry according to the formation, carrying the Fo Lang machine gun and the Tiger Crouching Cannon and chased Chahar.
In their eyes, the fleeing Chahar cavalry were just shining, walking silver, and they could not be allowed to escape.
Only five thousand archers were left surrounding the minefield, which was still shrouded in smoke and dust. Anyone who escaped from it would be shot directly!
Looking at the tribal warriors who had fled back, a tribal leader shouted with fear on his face.
"Get out! Get out!"
"Great Khan, retreat quickly, the Ming army is catching up!"
"Yes, retreat to the Huanhua City and stick to it!"
…
"Can't withdraw!"
An angry roar sounded: "Great Khan, we can't retreat. Quickly organize a large army and charge towards the Ming army!"
"Hurry up, or it will be too late!"
"Sangkar Village, are you crazy? Tens of thousands of cavalry have been killed, and the army has lost morale. How can we charge forward?"
"Although the Ming army no longer has tanks, they do have artillery. With their morale low, will they continue to charge and die?"
"Shut up, everyone!"
Sangkarzhai roared again, his eyes widened and bloodshot, like a crazy beast.
"There are tens of thousands of people behind us. We withdraw. What will they do? Are they waiting to be massacred?"
"This section of the counterattack has been under our surveillance, and we have walked it countless times. There is no chance that there will be a second explosion of the Ming army just now."
"Although the Ming army has artillery, it needs time to refill the ammunition. This is our opportunity to use thousands of cavalry to fight to the death.
As long as we rush into their army formation, with our thirty to forty thousand cavalry, they will definitely not be able to resist it! "
"It is impossible to retreat. They will continue to bite us. When we reach Dongsheng City, there is the Yellow River behind us. Do we want to commit suicide by jumping into the river?"
"Instead of waiting for death, it is better to give it a try. Even if you die, you must have the Ming army behind you!"
"As long as we break through their central army tent and capture their commander, we will be qualified to negotiate!"
"Khan, give the order quickly. If you wait a little longer, it will be too late!"
Sangkarzhai said hurriedly, while turning his head to look at the defeated Chahar cavalry approaching and the Ming army chasing behind them.
Although the tribal leaders felt that Sangkar Village's analysis was correct, they absolutely did not want to fight.
Lin Danhan, whose face was gloomy, was changing rapidly at this moment. In just a few breaths, he suddenly raised his head and looked at everyone.
"For our people, we must fight, but we cannot attack them all!"
"Seben, Mu Le, you two lead 10,000 cavalry to charge towards the Ming army and buy time for the people to retreat!"
"Immediately send an order to the tribesmen to retreat to Dongsheng City immediately, or escape to other places!"
"Most of the rest are gathering towards Guihua City, using the trench that blocks the slaves to resist!"
"Move now, quickly!"
Listening to Lin Danhan's decision, Sankarzhai closed his eyes in pain. It was so stupid!
Although such a decision could save some of the cavalry, the 10,000 cavalry and tens of thousands of people who blocked the enemy might be massacred. He seemed to have seen the bloody scene in the future.
"I will personally lead the charge!"
"Warriors, kill for Chahar and the people behind us!"
"The formation should be looser to prevent the Ming army's artillery bombardment!"
Just for a moment, Sangkarzhai put away his helpless expression, shouted loudly, lifted the reins with his right hand, clamped the war horse hard with his legs, and the war horse rushed out.
It would be better to die on the battlefield than to be executed by Lin Dan Khan afterwards.
Seemingly knowing the consequences of retreat, or perhaps being aroused to their bloody passion, 10,000 Chahar cavalry waved their scimitars and made strange screams, and charged towards the Ming army with astonishing momentum.
Through clairvoyance, looking at the Chahar cavalry charging in the opposite direction, Chongzhen chuckled and said: "There are still capable people in the Chahar army. It's a pity that they still don't understand the essence of meeting on a narrow road and the brave will win."
After chuckling, Chongzhen had a cold look on his face: "Send the order, cover with firepower!"
