Chapter 1127: The Jedi Strikes Back (Medium)

About 30 miles away from the main battlefield, there is a large lake, about the size of a football field, the lake is surrounded by plants such as sand willow poplar, and spring grass everywhere also rises an inch high, as if it has become a desert oasis of considerable scale.

However, at this time, there is not a single bird or beast in this oasis, it is surprisingly quiet, take a closer look, it turns out that there is a cavalry of about 5,000 people hidden here, all the mandarin duck battle jackets, it is the Ming army.

The mounts of these Ming troops were covered with a blanket made of hay, and the soldiers were lying on the ground, with hay nests on their heads, and their bodies were almost buried in the sand, and they could not be distinguished from a distance.

The general of this Ming cavalry is Xie Sangun, it turns out that when Xu Jin suddenly ordered the whole army to stop and prepare for war last night, Xie Sangun did not stop, he followed Xu Jin's secret orders, and continued to gallop south with 5,000 cavalry for about 30 miles, and came to this desert green state to hide secretly.

It is necessary to explain here that Xie Sangun led 2,700 remnants of cavalry to find Xu Jin last night to report the news, and after that, Xu Jin took out about 2,300 cavalry from the 3,000 battalion, gathered enough 5,000 cavalry and handed it over to Xie Sanshu to lead, and gave him an extremely important task, that is, to ambush the Tartar cavalry that might come from the direction of Duolun here.

Xu Jin's order was that even if he couldn't repel the other party, he should delay as much as possible to buy time for the main force of the Ming army on this side of the main battlefield, and by the way, Xu Jin even handed over fifty Franc machine guns to Xie Sangun.

At this moment, Xie Sangun was hiding under a sand willow tree, buried in the yellow sand from the neck down, with a circle of hay like a chicken nest on his head, and a telescope in his left hand to look south, looking a little impatient.

The sun is rising higher and higher, and the sand is beginning to heat up, and the taste of being buried below is not pleasant, but the sound of artillery on the side of the main battlefield is constantly faintly coming, obviously the battle situation is very fierce, which is undoubtedly a torment for Xie Sangun, who has no energy left.

Waiting is the most test of a person's patience, especially a wait that is unpredictable whether the other party will show up!

According to Xu Jin's speculation, while pursuing, he would order Duolun's Tatar cavalry to encircle him, and once this happened, his 50,000 main force would be attacked by the enemy, and the situation would be quite bad, so he did not hesitate to divide his troops, let Xie San gun an ambush, and even sent him fifty Franc cannons.

Time passed minute by minute, and the cannon sound on the side of the main battlefield did not know how many rounds had been fired, and just when Xie Sangun was waiting extremely impatiently, four horsemen suddenly appeared in his sight.

Xie Sangun's spirits perked up, and he hurriedly adjusted the focus of the clairvoyance, and soon saw the dress of the four horsemen, which was clearly a Tartar. These four horsemen are very alert, riding horses all the way, looking around all the way, they should be scouts in charge of exploring the way.

Xie Sangun was overjoyed, since the scout appeared, the Tartar's army should be almost there, his grandmother's, there is revenge, there is revenge, there is revenge, come on, the master has been waiting for you for a long time!

I saw that the four-horse Tartar scouts rode their horses to the edge of the green state, and went straight to the lake, probably to find water to drink, in order not to expose the hiding place, Xie Sangun was about to order the snipers to kill them, and suddenly there was a round of dense artillery sound from the main battlefield in the distance, which was estimated to be a volley of Franc's machine gun.

When the four Tartar scouts heard the sound of the cannons, they all subconsciously strangled their horses, looked up at the distant sky, and then gathered together to discuss with each other, and soon two of the Tartar scouts turned around and ran back and forth, while the other two scouts continued to ride their horses to the lake to get water.

Whoosh......

As soon as the two Tartar scouts had entered the oasis, they were slain by two striking arrows, both of which were in the throat and did not even have time to scream. Immediately afterwards, several Ming soldiers flashed out of their hiding places, quickly led the horses away, and the two corpses were buried in the yellow sand on the spot, and in just a few tens of seconds, everything returned to calm.

After about half a burnt incense, the dust was flying in the south, the banner was waving, and I saw a Tatar cavalry rolling the yellow sand rushing towards this side, the speed was very fast, obviously hearing the sound of artillery, and planning to rush over as soon as possible to flank the main force of the Ming army.

That's right, this cavalry came from Duolun, but it was not the fourth fierce general under the command of Altan Holger who was in charge of leading the team, this unlucky guy was shot in the lower abdomen by a Ming army Xiaoqi named Meng Ge, and almost lost his life, and is still lying in the camp tent in Duolun to recuperate.

It was precisely because he was injured that he could not lead the team in person, so Holge sent his deputy Ao Ga to lead 10,000 horsemen to cooperate with Altan Khan to attack Xu Jin.

It is said that Holge only led 20,000 cavalry to cut off the Ming army's grain route that day, although he finally defeated Qiu Luan and Xie Sangun, but also suffered three or four thousand casualties, and now there are only about 16,000 cavalry left under his hand to fight, not only to watch the tens of thousands of Han slaves who came from the prisoners, but also to guard the hundreds of thousands of stone grain that were robbed, so sending 10,000 cavalry is already his limit.

Let's say that Ao Ga led 10,000 Tatar cavalry to rush away, just thinking about rushing to the ground as soon as possible to flank the main force of the Ming army, so as to make a contribution in front of the Great Khan.

Because they believed that the Ming army was already grasshoppers after the autumn, the Ao Ga general marched all the way swaggeringly, and the scouts were also very sloppy, and they obviously never dreamed that the Ming army would ambush them with their hands free when they fled.

Soon, 10,000 Tatar cavalry entered the range of the Fran cannon, and Xie Sangun, who had long been hungry, immediately ordered the cannon to fire.

Crash......

The foliage covering the fifty Furlong guns was lifted, revealing the swarthy barrels, the hollow muzzles of which were aimed at the Tatar cavalry that was galloping in the distance.

"Fire!" Xie San burst into flames and personally lit one of the Furlong cannons.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Plumes of smoke rose into the sky in the oasis, and countless fireballs roared and smashed into the Tartars' cavalry ranks, blowing up in all directions, turning people on their backs, and causing great chaos.

The Tartar cavalry was originally in the high-speed attack, but they were stunned by this overwhelming wave of artillery fire, and the one in front was shot and fell off the horse, and the one behind was too late to retract, so they directly collided with each other, and under each other, there were countless casualties.

Boom Boom Boom ......

Fifty Franc cannons, five hundred shells, don't want to be like a brain, and the Tartars' team was torn apart.

"Brothers, the opportunity for revenge has come, kill!" Xie Sangun threw away the torch, jumped on the horse, and rushed out of the oasis first.

"Rush, kill!" The 5,000 cavalry Ming army descended the mountain like a fierce tiger and fiercely slaughtered the Tartar cavalry, which had become a mess of porridge.

Ao Ga was shocked and shouted hoarsely: "Enemy attack!! ”

This Ao Ga is also a fierce general, I saw him draw out a scimitar, slap his horse towards the Ming army's soldiers, but unfortunately at this time his soldiers were blown up, the formation was chaotic, caught off guard, only a few hundreds of people followed him to rush up to meet the enemy.

I saw Xie Sangun taking the lead, and the jujube red horse under his crotch was like a flame, stabbing out with a shot as fast as lightning, poof, the spear entered the flesh, and the blood flew away.

This Ao Ga is indeed a fierce general, but his ability is obviously not half a star worse than Xie Sangun, and he was stabbed by Xie Sangun just by looking at him.

Xie Sangun shouted, the spear was picked up hard, and the whole person of Ao Ga was raised high, and the blood flowed down the barrel of the gun like water, and at this time, Ao Ga was not dead, and he let out a heart-rending scream, and the Tatar cavalry who followed him were all frightened by Xie Sangun's bravery.

Xie Sangun shook the spear in both hands, and Ao Ga's corpse flew out, smashing a Tartar cavalryman off his horse!

Boom ......

The Ming cavalry fiercely broke into the chaotic ranks of the Tatar cavalry, like a blade sweeping over a piece of tofu and directly chiseling through......

The Tatar cavalry was strong, but a Tatar cavalry that had been thrown out of formation and whose main was about to die was equally vulnerable. Xie Sangun led 5,000 horsemen back and forth to kill a few times, and the entire Tatar cavalry completely collapsed and fled for their lives.

Bang bang bang...... Whoosh!

The Ming army hung up their swords and switched to flintlock pistols or bows and arrows, constantly shooting the fleeing Tartar cavalry, keeping an eye on the large forces of the rout, not giving them a chance to assemble again.

The battle lasted about half an hour, and none of the 10,000 Tatar cavalry was left. Xie Sangun made people count, this battle killed more than 3,200 enemy soldiers, only 48 people were sacrificed, and more than 200 people were injured, this battle is undoubtedly a hearty victory!

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! The Ming army had earth-shattering cheers, especially the Ming army that had experienced yesterday's defeat, and finally let out a bad breath and raised their eyebrows.

Guo Heizi came to Xie Sangun, this thing was covered in blood at the moment, and the scar on his face was even more hideous, so he only listened to his joyful suggestion: "General Xie, let's fight the rabbit with grass, take advantage of the victory to kill Duolun, and snatch back the lost grain and grass." According to the estimation of his subordinates, there were only six or seven thousand Tartars left there, and they had to guard both the food and the prisoners, and even fewer were free, and if we were to kill them suddenly, they would definitely be able to take them by surprise. ”

Xie Sangun's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he reached out and patted Guo Heizi on the shoulder and praised: "Good idea, this move is exactly what I want!" ”

Guo Heizi became even more energetic when he heard this, and immediately suggested: "General Xie, we can also change into Tartar clothes and disguise ourselves as routs, and then suddenly attack after approaching, we will definitely get twice the result with half the effort and kill them with half the effort." ”

"Guo Heizi, not only are your fucking faces black enough, but your hands are even darker, hahaha, just do it!" Xie Sangun laughed excitedly.

Xie Sangun, this kid was full of guts, and he did what he said, and immediately ordered to strip off the clothes on the corpse of the Tartar, let a part of the Ming army wear it, disguise it as a Tartar rout, and then divide into two groups and gallop away in the direction of Duolun.
