Wo Kuotai clenched his fists and his roar shook the Mongolian formation.
After discovering that the Mongolian infantry could not withstand the Qi army's attack and the infantry was killed and forced them to retreat, Wokuotai could only send out the Mongolian cavalry to attack.
The Mongolian army had the advantage of the cavalry, but Wo Kuotai kept holding the cavalry down. The Mongolian cavalry, who had been watching the battle for nearly an hour, could no longer hold it any longer.
At this time, the horn of the Mongolian army sounded. The Mongolian king pressed the red platform and slapped the horse on the buttocks with a scimitar. The long horse neighed and rushed out like lightning. Behind him, more than ten thousand Mongolian cavalry immediately followed with howling loudly. Afterwards, the horses' hooves rolled towards the Qi army's infantry.
The Mongolian cavalry galloped, raising their scimitars above their heads as they galloped, screaming strangely as they galloped, and the sound was extremely terrifying.
After the Mongolian cavalry came out of the battle, they did not directly enter the battlefield. Instead, they ran south for a certain distance, then took a detour and directly attacked the back of the Qi army's infantry, hoping to hit the archers and light armored infantry who returned to the rebel army.
Under the flag of the Qi army, Zhao Tai saw the Mongolian cavalry attacking, his cheeks twitching, and the hand holding the handle of the knife was already covered with sweat.
In the Qi army's formation, when the soldiers saw the Mongolian cavalry coming out, they couldn't help but clenched their weapons, swallowed their saliva, and prepared for the impact of the Mongolian cavalry.
But the Mongolian cavalry turned a corner halfway and headed straight for the rebels.
This made the soldiers in the Qi Army's main formation relieved, but then they became worried about their comrades in the Guiyi Army.
The Guiyi army was mainly light armored soldiers. The soldiers did not have heavy armor protection. The archers behind the army formation did not have long weapons. How could they stop the impact of the Mongolian cavalry.
Zhao Tai's expression was solemn, and he couldn't help but look left and right out of the corner of his eyes, holding the reins tightly in his hands, "Majun, why haven't the lonely tiger cavalry and Xiaoqi arrived yet?"
According to the agreement, the cavalry arranged by Zhao Tai near Baozhou should quickly break into Baozhou today, and then arrive near Langshan as quickly as possible.
It's past noon now, why hasn't the cavalry arrived?
The Qi army's cavalry did not rush to the battlefield, but the Mongolian cavalry left the formation at full speed.
They detoured around the front and flanks of the fighting infantry on both sides, roared directly towards the back of the Guiyi army, and launched a thunderous strike.
On the battlefield, the heavy infantry of the Qi army rushed into the heavy infantry of the Mongolian army. The two sides fought head-on, while the sword, shield and spearmen of the rebel army were on both sides of the heavy infantry, killing the light infantry of the Mongolian army retreating steadily.
The archers of the Guiyi Army were hiding behind the heavy infantry and light infantry and were shooting at the Mongolian army. Suddenly they saw the Mongolian cavalry turning and coming towards them in overwhelming numbers. The formation was immediately panicked.
The Qi army archers quickly turned their arrows and shot at the galloping cavalry, but at such a close distance, the Mongolian cavalry rushed in front of them in the blink of an eye.
The Mongolian cavalry on their horses could cut with their scimitars and stab with their spears. The archers without heavy armor or long soldiers suffered heavy losses immediately.
Under the banner of the Mongolian army, Wo Kuotai's sight jumped over the heads of the fighting infantry. When he saw the Mongolian cavalry rushing into the rear formation of the Qi army's infantry, he couldn't help but clenched his fists, raised his arms, and cheered loudly. "Press Chitai, good job!"
The Mongolian cavalry rushed into the Qi army's infantry formation. The archers could only take out their short axes and swords to fight back, but they were unable to stop the cavalry's attack.
In an instant, the Qi army's situation deteriorated rapidly in the middle of the battlefield. The Mongolian cavalry attacked the back of the Qi army with a massacre, while the Qi army's heavy infantry lost the power to advance due to the chaos in the rear formation. The Mongolian infantry took advantage of this. Taking advantage of the opportunity, he launched a counterattack.
Under the flag of the Qi army, Zhao Tai looked solemn. The Qi army had no cavalry cover and the infantry launched an attack. It was easy for the Mongolian cavalry to flank and back attack, so the situation was quite passive.
Now Zhao Tai still has more than 40,000 infantry troops, while Wokuotai still has more than 30,000 infantry troops, plus 40,000 cavalry troops who have not moved.
If Zhao Tai continues to invest troops without the protection of cavalry, then the infantry will be easily attacked by cavalry after leaving the formation, and the formation will also become a target of the Mongolian attack because of its empty troops.
At this time, Zhao Tai's hand holding the handle of the knife was almost watering, and he could only watch the infantry push forward.
As time passed on the battlefield, the battle situation continued to develop in a direction unfavorable to the Qi army.
Wokuotai squinted his eyes and watched the Qi army infantry on the battlefield. He had to admit that they were very tenacious and tenacious.
"Let's see how long you can endure, Zhao Tai!" Wo Kuotai sneered in his heart. He was waiting for Zhao Tai to invest his troops again, waiting for the Qi army to reveal greater flaws, and then send cavalry to determine the outcome of the battle.
"Boom!" Suddenly, a cannon shot came from the west side of the battlefield.
Zhao Tai turned around and saw a cloud of white smoke rising on the eastern outskirts of Langshan, and then a cannonball flashed past and directly hit the Mongolian army's right-wing cavalry formation.
Under the banner of Dahu, Wang Bin's face was filled with surprise, "Your Majesty, he is the Martial Immortal!"
Zhao Tai came on the mountain road and could not carry artillery, but there were cannons in Langshan City to defend the city.
Wokuotai chose the battlefield in the southern suburbs of Dong'an to avoid the artillery at the head of Langshan City. However, Wu Xian moved the artillery on the city outside the city and deployed an artillery array to the west of the Mongolian formation to bombard the Mongolian army.
These ten artillery pieces are actually not very useful in a battle involving more than 100,000 people, and cannot play a decisive role in determining the situation of the battle. However, the continuous bombardment of the Mongolian army formations by the artillery shells can put huge pressure on the Mongolian army.
Zhao Tai's task for Wuxian was originally to insert Qi troops directly to the north of Dong'an City to prevent the Mongolian troops from crossing the river when they defeated the Mongolian troops.
Now that Wu Xian saw that the battle situation was unfavorable, he pulled the artillery outside the city and actively provoked the Mongolian army, which would undoubtedly attract an attack from the Mongolian army.
Sure enough, under the banner of the Mongolian army, Wo Kuotai frowned slightly when he saw the right wing group being attacked.
He hesitated for a moment, not wanting to pay attention to Wu Xian, but saw another round of artillery fire from the Qi army, causing a commotion on the right wing.
If Wuxian is not dealt with, they will definitely continue to bombard the formation. It is not a problem for the Mongolian warriors to stand and be beaten. So Wo Kuotai waved his hand and ordered, "Right wing cavalry army, crush Wuxian for me and seize the Qi thieves artillery."
The Mongolian right-wing cavalry army took a few shots and immediately roared towards Wuxian's 7,000-foot infantry army.
Wuxian stood in the formation. The Qi general faced the charge of thousands of Mongolian cavalry, but he did not panic at all.
Seven thousand armed guards surrounded the artillery array and had already formed a tight military formation.
At this time, the Mongolian cavalry rushed over like a tsunami, but they did not charge directly. The Mongolian heavy cavalry stood on the side looking for opportunities, and more than ten thousand light cavalry galloped around the circular formation formed by the armed guards, firing waves of arrows. , shooting the Qi soldiers in the formation, while the Qi soldiers responded with bows and crossbows.
Under the banner of the Mongolian army, Wo Kuotai's gaze returned to the front from the west.
Under the stranglehold of the Mongolian cavalry, the Qi army's infantry was approaching its limit. Wo Kuotai was keenly aware of the opportunity. He raised his right hand and said, "Zhao Tai, if you don't increase your troops, I will chase your infantry and kill them." Enter your formation."
Zhao Tai's face was as dark as water, feeling the huge crisis. He also raised his right hand. If the cavalry could not reach the battlefield, he could only continue to increase his troops and expose the main formation to Wokuotai, allowing him to attack.
If Wokuotai waits for Zhao Tai to continue to increase his troops, Zhao Tai's large formation will become empty, and the 25,000 cavalry on his left wing that has been moving will be able to overwhelm Zhao Tai's cavalry before they arrive. Zhao Tai's military formation.
Now that Zhao Tai can't bear to increase his troops, if he defeats Zhao Tai's infantry and attacks from the front, the result will be the same.
Just when Wokuotai raised his hand and was ready to give an order, a Mongolian general suddenly discovered that a horse army was running far away from the southeast.
"Look, Khan!" General Youmeng reminded loudly, "Qi Thief's cavalry has arrived!"
Wo Kuotai could only put down his raised hand. He turned around and saw countless cavalry coming from the wilderness. Their hoofs trampled the ground with a sound that shook the earth.
