"General, there is a situation."

At this time, a guard who followed Zhao Zilong's side shouted.

Then, Zhao Zilong saw that a war horse was running towards them, and there seemed to be a figure lying on the horse.

"General, it's Niu Hai them." A personal guard rushed out, and after checking the man, he shouted to Zhao Zilong.

And this Niu Hai is one of the scouts sent out by Zhao Zilong.

"Cow Sea!" At this time, Zhao Zilong also rode over and shouted.

At this time, Niu Hai had two arrows stuck in his back, and he was already dying, but he didn't die and escaped back.

"Will ...... General, go quickly, back ...... There are tartars in the back! ”

Niu Hai, who was lying on horseback, raised his head forcibly after hearing Zhao Zilong's shout, gritted his teeth and said the last paragraph, then lowered his head.

"Niu Hai, Niu Hai!" Zhao Zilong shouted loudly twice.

The guard next to him stretched out his finger and put it on Niu Hai's neck, then looked at Zhao Zilong, and said in a deep voice: "General, he is dead." ”

"Damn it!"

Zhao Zilong had a gloomy face and scolded secretly.

Thundered!

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves was heard in the distance, and Zhao Zilong could even see the dust rising from a long distance, and his face changed suddenly.

"Oh no, the Tartars are coming."

"What now, General." Shuiichiro Yoshino, who was next to him, asked.

"I also asked what to do, the enemy came just in time, rushed up and killed them all, a Tartar head, but ten taels of silver."

Fujino Yokokawa on the side was not the slightest nervous, but looked like he was about to try and said.

"No, the enemy is cavalry, we are all infantry, and we will suffer if we win against them, general, let's withdraw first!"

Shuiichiro Yoshino was much calmer than Fujino Yokokawa, and suggested to Zhao Zilong.

"It's too late, how can our two legs outrun the enemy's four legs." Zhao Zilong shook his head and said.

Zhao Zilong knew that the situation was urgent at this time, he looked around, and then pointed to a hillside a mile away, and shouted: "The whole army immediately rushed to that hillside and prepared for battle." ”

That hillside is also the only place near here that is relatively high, and it is also the only place suitable for Zhao Zilong and them to fight.

Zhao Zilong needed to command these Japanese soldiers to occupy this advantageous position for them before the Tartar cavalry arrived, and prepare for war with the Tartars.

"Yes, listen to the general, the whole army rushed to that hillside and acted!"

Hearing Zhao Zilong's order, Yoshino and Fujino did not dare to disobey Zhao Zilong's order, so they ordered their Japanese soldiers to rush to the hillside to prepare for battle.

Soon, more than 3,500 Japanese soldiers, as well as hundreds of gunners of the White Dragon Army, rushed to the top of the hillside, and the artillerymen began to set up artillery.

"Ilgen Jue Luo Doro, this old thief, really set his sights on my group first!"

Zhao Zilong climbed the hillside, looked at the Tartar cavalry team rushing in the distance, and whispered to himself.

At this time, even if Zhao Zilong could escape, he would not order to leave.

Because he had just figured it out before, it turned out that Li Zixiao led the Japanese barracks to attack Xuancheng this time, which was not the real purpose.

Li Zixiao's real purpose was actually to use them as bait to lure out the Tartar cavalry commanded by Ilgen Jue Luo Doro.

After all, for Li Zixiao, using the Japanese barracks as bait can be regarded as the most suitable.

Sacrificing the Japanese soldiers is always more acceptable to Li Zixiao than sacrificing the white dragon soldiers.

Now that the tartar has appeared, that is to say, the fish has bitten the hook, how can Zhao Zilong, the 'bait', escape!

"General, the fish have already bitten the hook, I will hang them here, you have to come quickly, if it's late, my subordinates don't know how long they can hold on."

At this time, Zhao Zilong muttered to himself in his heart.

"General, the artillery has been erected, the first round of reloading of explosive shells, whether to bombard the Tartar cavalry."

At this time, a white dragon army general who was moving with Zhao Zilong's army ran to Zhao Zilong and shouted to him.

"Okay, fire immediately, the artillery is under your command." Zhao Zilong replied.

"Yes."

The artillery general of the White Dragon Army answered, and ran back to his men, the artillery position that had just been erected, and shouted: "All ready, fire!" ”

Boom Boom!

After the White Dragon Army artillery general gave the order, more than a dozen loud noises were heard.

A dozen twelve-pounder and eight-pounder guns fired explosive shells at the group of Tartar cavalry galloping towards them in the distance.

"The artillery of the Ming army, pay attention to evasion, spread out!"

In addition, at this time, more than two miles away, nearly 4,000 Tartar cavalry led by Ilgen Jueluo Luo Duoluo had already locked on the hillside where Zhao Zilong's men and horses were located at this time, and were galloping towards that side.

And when the artillery of the White Dragon Army opened fire, Ilgen Jue Luo Doro heard the loud cannon sound and immediately ordered the Tartar cavalry to disperse to avoid the shells of the White Dragon Army.

It's just that Ilgen Jue Luo Doro is the right decision.

But he still underestimated the power of these explosive bombs fired by the White Dragon Army's artillery at this time.

This kind of explosive bomb with delayed explosion has terrible lethality on the battlefield, whether it is cavalry or infantry.

Ilgen Jueluo knew much more about the White Dragon Army than Huang Taiji and others, and he even thought that the artillery of the White Dragon Army was firing solid iron bullets.

The most terrible thing about those solid iron bullets was the ricochets that occurred after they landed, so he gave the order to let his cavalry scatter in an attempt to avoid the ricochets that occurred.

Bang bang bang!

As a result, what Ilgen Jue Luo Doro didn't expect was that the falling shells would explode, and some of them exploded around them before they landed.

Ahhh

Hiss!

As these falling explosive bombs exploded one by one, there was a burst of screams of people and the neighing of war horses all of a sudden.

Among the explosive shells that exploded, the small lead bullets and iron nails and iron sheets that shot out in all directions were enough to inflict terrible damage on both the Tartar cavalry and the Tartar horses.

For a while, people turned on their backs, and many Tartar cavalry planted a big heel.

These Tartar cavalry, who fell in the high-speed gallop of war horses, do not need to think about their fate, and the chances of survival are very small.

"Damn, what happened to the Ming army is the kind of shell that can explode, this kind of shell is vicious."

After seeing this scene, Ilgen Jue Luodoro, who was running on a horse, had a gloomy face and cursed.

Before, when Ilgen Jue Luo Doro was attacking the New Fort of the Ninth Company, he encountered the use of explosive bombs by the artillery of the White Dragon Army, and that was the first time he saw the horror of the artillery of the White Dragon Army.

In that battle, the artillerymen of the White Dragon Army taught Ilgen Jue Luo Doro a good lesson, which left a very deep impression on him.

Even, when the Tartars attacked the New Fort of the Ninth Company, those Tartar soldiers had a strong fear of this kind of explosive bomb and shrapnel bombs.

Now, when Ilgen Jue Luo Doro saw the artillery of the White Dragon Army, he used this explosive bomb to bombard them again, which of course made many Tartars fearful.

It's just that it's time to send it, and it's impossible for Ilgen to give up this opportunity.

"Spread out, spread out a little more."

As Ilgen Kyoro shouted, the Tartar cavalry quickly dispersed into several small cavalry formations and continued to rush towards the hillside.

Zhao Zilong, who was standing on the hillside, looked at the Tatar cavalry that was quickly dispersed into several strands in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "The Tatar cavalry really deserves its name!" ”

But what Zhao Zilong didn't know was that in fact, in this Tartar cavalry team of nearly 4,000 people, there were only 1,000 real Tartar cavalry.

The rest are all Ahha, but these Ahabs are also doing well, but they can still carry out Ilgenjue Luodoro's orders in an orderly manner under such circumstances.

Boom Boom!

There was another burst of cannons, and the artillery of the White Dragon Army on the hillside, after completing the first salvo, quickly completed the loading of ammunition and fired again at the Tartar cavalry that was getting closer and closer.

"Tiger squat cannon and franc machine, both ready, must be Tartar cavalry rushed up, and fired.

Yoshino, let your men take out all the iron-shelled bullets they are carrying, and be ready to light them and throw them out at any time.

Fujino, let your men defend the left wing. ”

Looking at the Tartar cavalry team that was gradually rushing over, Zhao Zilong looked calm and gave orders to Yoshino and Fujino.

"Yes."

At this time, these two people were also shocked by the Tartar cavalry and the huge momentum, and Zhao Zilong's command pulled them back from their distraction.

The two volleys of the artillery of the White Dragon Army, after nearly forty explosive bombs were smashed down, caused many Tartar cavalrymen to turn on their backs and lose many people.

After the two rounds of salvo fire from the artillery of the White Dragon Army, the Tartars had already rushed to the bottom of the hillside, almost three or four hundred paces, and at such a close distance, these large-caliber guns had already been used.

At this time, for these Tartar cavalry, on the contrary, the Tiger Squat Cannon and the Franc Machine are more suitable.

At the same time, because of this distance, because of the slopes of the hills, the terrain began to increase, and the momentum of the Tartar cavalry charge was weakened.

It is obvious that the speed of the Tartar cavalry charge has slowed down a lot.

At the same time, the tartars scattered on the hillside were almost regrouped into three strands, and were rushing up the hill from three different directions.

"Tiger squat cannon, Franc machine, prepare, fire!"

The artillery of the White Dragon Army, on the hillside, spread more than 50 tiger squat cannons and Buddha Lang machines, forming a half-moon arc defensive formation, and at this time opened fire on the Tartars who rushed up.

Ahhh

Bang bang bang!

Screams and muffled noises rang out, and the group of Tartar cavalry who rushed to the front was the most unlucky, and they ran head-on into the rain of buckshot down the hillside.

"Rush up and kill them all!"

At this time, Ilgen Jue Luo Doro was also red-eyed, standing at the bottom of the hillside and roaring loudly.

They rushed all the way, and before they could rush up the hill to fight the enemy, they had already fallen two or three hundred horsemen, how could they not make him angry.

In the face of the Tartar cavalry who continued to rush up, the Tiger Squat Cannon and the Franc Machine on the hillside arranged by the White Dragon Army could only complete one shot.

The Tartars would definitely not give them a second chance to shoot, and soon quite a few of them were already cavalry and rushed up the hillside.

"Ignite the fire, throw all the iron-clad mines out, and kill me!" Zhao Zilong gave one last order.

At this time, it was impossible for Zhao Zilong to block it, and the Tartar cavalry rushed up the hillside, and all the means that should be used were exhausted, and the only thing left was to fight to the death.

Boom Boom!

There was another somewhat scattered explosion, which may also be the last explosion that Zhao Zilong and the others could make, caused by the explosion of the iron-shelled mine that Yoshino asked his soldiers to throw.

The explosion of the iron-shelled mine, in addition to the four-shot lead bullets and iron pieces that caused damage to the Tartar cavalry, actually had a greater effect, but the loud noise caused by the explosion frightened the Tartar horses.

Frightened horses will not be controlled by the Tartar cavalry, and even many of the horses will lose control and throw the Tartars off their horses.

"Kill me!"

At this time, Zhao Zilong could only personally lead these Japanese soldiers to fight with the Tartar cavalry who rushed up the hillside.

"Kill it, ten taels of silver for a person's head, kill it with me!"

Seeing Zhao Zilong take the lead and kill out, Yoshino in the back also rushed out with his own Japanese soldiers, and at the same time, he did not forget to use money to stimulate the fighting spirit of his Japanese soldiers.

"Haha, I've killed the enemy, everyone is rushing with me!"

On the left flank, Fujino Yokokawa also personally led people to meet the Tartar cavalry that rushed up.

Puff puff!

There was a sound of knives and spears piercing into flesh, and the Tartar cavalry who rushed up the hillside had already fought with the Japanese soldiers on the hillside.

I have to say that these Tartar cavalry who rushed up the hillside, riding on war horses, were condescending and easier to chop, and many Japanese soldiers were killed by the Tartars on the war horses as soon as they rushed over.

However, the only thing that Zhao Zilong was fortunate enough for them was that because the terrain of the five people on the hillside was still relatively steep, their speed advantage had been lost after the Tartar cavalry rushed up.

These Japanese soldiers were indeed brave one by one, shouting 'kill and give', and the Tartar cavalry who rushed up the hillside fought together.

At this time, the low height of the Japanese soldiers showed their advantages.

Some of the Japanese soldiers bent down directly, got under the Tartar war horses, and used long knives to cut off the limbs of the Tartar war horses, and the Tartar war horses were constantly cut off by them and fell down.

Then, the soldiers rushed forward in a swarm and killed the fallen tartars, and the corpses of the soldiers and horses on both sides were soon piled up at the forefront of the hillside.

The two sides soon stepped on, and the corpses of each other's soldiers and horses were fighting, and the battle was extremely fierce.

"Kill!"

Poof, the spear in Zhao Zilong's hand stabbed into the chest of a Tartar cavalryman and dragged him off his horse.

Zhao Zilong personally led people to rush to the front, at this time he was covered in blood and had several wounds on his body, but he was still in good spirits, and Tartars continued to die under his gun.

And the Japanese soldiers led by Yoshino and Fujino were all killed one by one.

These Japanese soldiers went forward one after another, but they refused to retreat, and strangled with the Tartars, turning this nameless hillside into a flesh mill.
