Behind Lao Wu and the others, a cavalry army appeared continuously, wearing red shirts, tall horses, and majestic...
"Reinforcements, look, they are reinforcements. They are really reinforcements. I guessed it right, haha, I guessed it right..." The former guard suddenly shouted in ecstasy, pointing in the distance, as if offering a treasure. shouted to the comrades beside him.
There was no need for him to say anything anymore. All the soldiers of the Ming Army, including Li Laiheng, looked greedily into the distance and prayed silently in their hearts: "And, and, and, and..."
At this time, they were afraid that they would suddenly disappear and only a few people would come.
Fortunately, they were not disappointed. Reinforcements continued to appear, and there was no sign of them disappearing.
Obviously, those Tanma in the Ottoman Empire army were not afraid of Lao Wu and the others, but they fled back crazily when they saw the Ming Dynasty reinforcements.
At this time, they had already seen their own army, so they waved their hands on horseback, shouted wildly, and warned in their bird language: "The Ming army is coming, many Ming troops are coming..."
Because of the undulating hills, the Ottoman cavalry marched in the valley and did not see the Ming reinforcements. Although he saw his own Tanma, the rumble of iron hoofs not only covered up Tanma's warning, but also covered up the sound of the Ming cavalry's hoofbeats.
The Ottoman Empire cavalry general in front saw something wrong with Tan Ma's appearance, but for a moment he was a little curious and didn't know what happened. To him, what if the remnant army of the Ming Dynasty was really in front?
As for explaining the national reinforcements, he never thought about it at all. After all, the Prime Minister personally visited the army to march north and probably destroyed the Ming army over there, so how could he possibly let the Ming army go south. Even taking a step back, even if the Prime Minister loses to the Ming army, he will at least send someone south to explain the situation and put this side on guard.
But there was one situation that he never expected. That is, the Prime Minister, whom they thought was wise and mighty, had actually been completely wiped out. Although the more than 10,000 remnant troops who escaped from Mingwei Fort escaped with their lives, even the main force led by the Prime Minister was defeated so miserably. Who would think that their southern army could withstand the Ming army's counterattack? .
Therefore, after the more than 10,000 remnants of the Ottoman Empire escaped, they did not go south, but fled directly to the west and fled back to their own country.
Li Laiheng in the valley discovered that the Ottoman Empire's cavalry had actually seen its tail. There were really only more than 10,000 cavalry. At this time, he suddenly realized that the shaking of the earth was not just due to the arrival of the Ottoman Empire cavalry, but also the arrival of Ming reinforcements. So just judging from this sign, I would have thought that there were a lot of enemies!
The Ming Cavalry Army is still emerging in a steady stream. Li Laiheng was a little dumbfounded that there were really a lot of reinforcements. At this time, his first feeling was that the Governor had defeated the enemy and had already headed south to rescue the Tang Dynasty.
"Stop, stop..." The general of the Ottoman Empire's cavalry finally realized something was wrong and quickly sent an order backwards. He looked past the exploration horse he sent out with some doubts, and looked at the distance of the valley, and finally saw dust flying. At this time, he was more confused: "What's going on?"
The first thing he thought of was that the Prime Minister had defeated the Ming army on the north road and sent troops south!
However, Tan Ma's movements were in a panic, which made him very confused. For him, of course he would not want to believe that their Prime Minister had lost.
At this time, the scouting horses were already running close, and the cavalry here began to gradually stop, so you could hear clearly: "The Ming army is coming, the Ming reinforcements have arrived..."
As if to prove that what he said was right, as the cavalry here stopped, the rumbling hoofbeats did not weaken at all. At this time, they finally heard clearly that there was also "thunder" rolling in front of them.
At about the same time, the generals of the Ottoman Cavalry finally saw the Ming Cavalry appearing in front. With clear flags, tall horses, and unstoppable momentum, they were rushing toward them.
Seeing this scene, he was so frightened that he shouted loudly: "The enemy is attacking, prepare for war, the enemy is attacking, prepare for war..."
However, the Ottoman Empire's cavalry was on the march and was chasing the Ming Dynasty's remnant army. They had a psychological sense of superiority and felt that the Ming Dynasty's remnant army was vulnerable.
Therefore, although the cavalry soldiers behind heard the military orders from the front, they did not take them seriously. Of course, there is another reason, that is, they are in the valley and it is not convenient for them to set up a defensive formation immediately.
But they were cavalry after all. After they stopped, they heard the rumble of horse hooves. After a little judgment, you can know how many enemy cavalry there are. It was only then that they became nervous.
However, at this time, the spearhead of the Ming reinforcements had already appeared in front of them.
When they realized that this was the reinforcements of the Ming Dynasty, a new army, not the remnant army, everyone panicked. Some people just wanted to retreat first, while others quickly made defensive preparations...
When Li Laiheng saw this scene in the valley, he immediately got on his horse and drove his horse to the top of the mountain. The sun shone on his body, he took the gun in his hand, pointed it forward, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, follow me and kill his mother!"
I was chased like a dog by the enemy in front of me, but now the reinforcements have arrived. If I don't take revenge now, then when will I take revenge?
The soldiers under his command all have the same mentality as him. Also, they were all prepared to die here. But now that reinforcements have arrived, our side's advantage has greatly increased. This is no longer a fight to the death, but a victory. Just like this, their morale has definitely reached its peak, and they want to kill a few more to vent their anger.
Therefore, as their commander-in-chief gave an order, the Ming army officers and soldiers who were ambushing in the valley all mounted their horses and jumped up the valley. Following their commander-in-chief, they took advantage of the terrain of the valley to attack the Ottoman cavalry below. The front half position.
At this time, the Ottomans in the valley were already panicking about the Ming reinforcements appearing in front of them. Suddenly, Ming troops were seen appearing in the valleys on both sides. Taking advantage of the geographical advantage, they attacked them from a high position. Immediately, most people were frightened.
This is equivalent to three wolves, biting from three directions. You can't display your formation, and you don't have the momentum of the enemy. If you fight in this situation, you will definitely lose!
"Retreat, retreat quickly..."
I don’t know if it was their general shouting, but this sound rang out in the army.
When the panicked soldiers heard this, they immediately chose to run away without saying anything. However, the people behind a long queue still knew what was going on in front of them, and things suddenly became more chaotic.
In fact, what's more is that this cavalry army of the Ottoman Empire is not their elite division, but an army composed of their own troops and their servants. In fact, in order to pursue and intercept the Ming army that was causing trouble in the rear, all their troops were divided into several waves to encircle them. You can't. One army is elite, and the other is a weakling, right?
In this way, the weaklings in this cavalry army became troublemakers. They were the first to panic and the first to escape. At such a critical moment, they immediately affected the elite of the Ottoman headquarters.
In the face of a superior enemy, how many people can face death without fear? The elite of the Ottomans are elites, but they are not dead soldiers. And this elite, to be more precise, they are only a little stronger than the servant army. If they were really strong, the Ottoman Empire would have swept across all directions, so how could there be so many rebellions in the country.
"kill……"
In this area, the loudest sound was the killing cry of the Ming army. Among them, there were newly arrived Ming army soldiers and Li Laiheng's men, who gathered together to frighten the enemy.
Three torrents, one large and two small, finally collided with the scattered enemy group, and they were unstoppable, as if the enemies in front of them were made of paper.
The shouts of killing, the clashing of armors and weapons, and the neighing of war horses suddenly became the main theme here.
With the cooperation of Li Laiheng in the valleys on both sides, the Ming army's attack went very smoothly, killing the Ottoman cavalry that had no intention of fighting in the first place. It took less than half an hour, and in front of the Ming soldiers, there were no enemies left to fight back.
"The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!" Li Laiheng, covered in blood, wiped his face, held a spear, raised his arms and shouted wildly.
Hearing his words, his subordinates who were already exhausted from the killings all shouted excitedly: "The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"
For them, a battle that they thought would lead to death turned out to be a win. No one is happy whether he is alive or alive after winning the war!
The soldiers of the Ming reinforcements also shouted: "The Ming Dynasty will be victorious!"
These four words echoed again in this land that had been conquered.
Li Laiheng got excited and finally saw the handsome flag clearly. He couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded. He quickly patted his horse and shouted from a distance: "Shuai Huang, why are you here?"
The Marshal Huang he called was Huang Degong, one of the commanders of the three battalions under the Royal Horse Supervisor. According to Li Laiheng's understanding, isn't Huang Degong in the capital?
"Haha, Mr. Li, you didn't expect it!" Huang Degong saw him and said with a smile, "Of course he went on the expedition with him, otherwise what did you think?"
When Li Laiheng left the capital, he was only a staff general, but now he is the chief soldier. But in the eyes of seniors like Huang Degong, they are still the same.
When Li Laiheng heard this, he didn't care about his title at all, but exclaimed: "What, the emperor is here?"
"Nonsense, if the emperor hadn't arrived, do you think you could have defeated the enemies of Mingwei Fort so quickly and come to save you?" Huang Degong laughed and cursed as a matter of course after hearing this.
At this time, other soldiers also knew that it was not the governor who saved them, but the emperor!
