At this time, on this path, a group of 2,000 cavalry of the White Dragon Army passed, commanded by Peng Hao, a large team of the Flying Dragon Battalion.
According to Li Zixiao's previous order, Peng Hao planned to divide his troops with Li Zixiao and raid the Qing cavalry on the north bank of the Daqing River.
As a result, at this time, when Peng Hao led two thousand White Dragon Army cavalry to appear on the north bank of the Daqing River through that path, he found that all the Qing cavalry here had left.
Thundered!
But soon, Peng Hao heard an explosion from the north.
"It's not good, the Qing army found out about the lord in advance."
Peng Hao's face changed at this time, and he immediately realized that the battle situation was not going as they had expected.
However, at this time, Peng Hao was also very calm, thinking quickly in his heart, and then he was keenly aware that the situation was still favorable to the opposite side at this time.
"The Tartars went to meet the Lord, but they probably didn't notice the men and horses I led.
At this time, I can kill from behind the Tartars, stab the Tartars in the eyes, and fight back and forth with the lord, and I will definitely be able to defeat the Tartar cavalry. ”
At this moment, Peng Hao's eyes were shining, and he keenly captured the fighter plane that was beneficial to them.
"The whole army obeys the order, kill me with me, and support the lord."
Immediately, Peng Hao gave an order and led his two thousand White Dragon Army cavalry to kill along the road between the woods and the hills that the Tartar cavalry had just passed.
"Kill!"
Poof, poof!
At this time, in the open land to the north of the hill, the battle between the cavalry of the White Dragon Army and the Tartar cavalry was also extremely tragic.
The Tartar cavalry was joined by 2,000 horsemen led by Duoduo, and its strength increased greatly, which also made the morale of the Tartar cavalry high.
On the side of the White Dragon Army, they were indeed at a disadvantage at this time, but even if these White Dragon Army cavalry were killed in battle, no one took a step back.
Because, Li Zixiao was watching them from behind, and in a short period of time, the White Dragon Army paid the price of more than five hundred casualties.
But it also stubbornly blocked the onslaught of the four thousand Tartar cavalry, but if it continues to fight like this, the cavalry of the White Dragon Army will definitely lose.
"Haha, Li Zixiao, this king must capture you alive this time."
Duoduo was behind, on his horse, watching the battle in front of him develop in their favor, and said with a smug smile.
Li Zixiao was also riding on the horse at this time, his hands holding the reins were trembling slightly, and he prayed in his heart.
"Peng Hao, Peng Hao, don't let Ben Jue down, the victory or defeat of this battle is all counting on you."
At this time, Li Zixiao hoped in his heart that Peng Hao could rush to the north bank of the Daqing River and find that the Qing cavalry had left, and he could reflect it in time.
Then, according to the actual situation, make the right judgment in time and seize the opportunity.
The time of a stick of incense passed, and the fighting of the cavalry on both sides on the open ground continued, and the White Dragon Army paid more casualties on its side, and the Tartars also suffered a lot of casualties.
Thundered!
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Dord, who was riding on a horse, heard a loud sound of horses' hooves on the road behind him, and couldn't help but turn his head to look over.
As a result, Duoduo turned his head to look at it, which directly made his face change greatly, and his eyes showed a look of horror.
A large group of cavalry of the White Dragon Army was rushing along the main road from their rear.
"How did Li Zixiao's cavalry go around behind this king?"
Dodor exclaimed, apparently he hadn't expected this.
"Soldiers, kill the Tartars!"
Peng Hao rode to the front, roared loudly, and rushed to Duoduo's side at a very fast speed, and also saw the Tartar cavalry who were fighting with Li Zixiao's cavalry.
At this time, those Tartar cavalry were all facing away from them, and the Tartar cavalry did not expect that at this time, the enemy would come out from behind them.
"Lord Wang, hurry up, the enemy is coming."
At this time, one of the guards beside Dodor shouted eagerly to Dodor.
At this time, Duoduo was in an extremely awkward position.
The two thousand cavalry of the White Dragon Army led by Peng Hao, who came from behind, were the first to bear the brunt of Duoduo, and at this time Duoduo did not have many Tartars around to protect him.
The Tartar cavalry were all sent by Duoduo to fight with the White Dragon Army cavalry under Li Zixiao.
Thundered!
Peng Hao, the cavalry of the White Dragon Army, ran very fast, and after Duoduo found out, they were killed in a blink of an eye.
And Peng Hao had already discovered Duoduo at this time.
It was really Duoduo's body, the fine armor with white and red edges, and the handsome flag behind him, which was too conspicuous.
Peng Hao recognized at a glance that Duoduo was the commander of this Tartar cavalry.
According to the information they got in advance, they naturally knew about those Duoduo.
"Let's go!"
Duoduo's face was ugly, and he reacted decisively at the first time, kicked the horse's belly, let Zhan run, and rushed towards the woods on the side with a few Tartar guards.
At this time, the speed at which Peng Hao and the others rushed over was too fast.
Duoduo knew that at this time, he ordered the Tartar cavalry in front of him to turn back and face Peng Hao's enemy army, and it was too late.
Duoduo looked at Peng Hao, the cavalry of the White Dragon Army, who was galloping over, and quickly felt extremely aggrieved and unwilling, but in the end he was cowardly and fled towards the woods.
After all, Duoduo didn't want to be killed, or captured by Li Zixiao's men again.
At this time, he had to rush into the woods close to him to avoid Peng Hao's charge and delay for some time.
But by doing so, Dodor would also lose command of the Tartar cavalry.
Between his own safety and his men, Duoduo chose to protect himself first.
"Zhao Ze, you take a small team of people to chase that Tartar prince, and you must capture it back with Ben Jiangsheng."
Peng Hao did not lose his mind because of the discovery of Duoduo, he still knew very well that what he needed to do most at this time was to support his compatriots on the main battlefield, not to chase Duoduo.
But Peng Hao was still unwilling, so he let Duoduo escape, and ordered to one of his generals behind him.
"Yes, the lowly job will definitely complete the task."
This chief, named Zhao Ze, shouted excitedly after hearing Peng Hao's order.
Then, he shouted to the cavalry under his command behind him: "The people of the third army, come with Lao Tzu, let's go and catch the Tartar prince." ”
Immediately, Zhao Ze led a group of ten cavalry of the Flying Dragon Battalion, quickly broke away from the team, and also burrowed into the woods next to him to pursue Duoduo.
Duoduo was also unlucky, they didn't expect that the White Dragon Army would have a cavalry around their backs, and they thought that Li Zixiao would bring these cavalry.
Therefore, he directly pressed all his Tartar cavalry, hoping to annihilate Li Zixiao's cavalry as soon as possible.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that Duoduo hates Li Zixiao too much in his heart.
The first time Duoduo saw Li Zixiao, he didn't want Li Zixiao to escape, so he instinctively ordered the whole army to press him.
As a result, apart from four or five personal guards with the banner, there were no other Tartar cavalry to protect him.
At this time, in the face of the sudden arrival of the White Dragon Army cavalry from behind, Duoduo did not even have a chance to resist for a moment, so he had to choose to flee into the woods.
"Kill!"
Although Duoduo fled, the battle on this side continued, Penghu roared angrily, led two thousand White Dragon Army cavalry, and smashed into the Tartar cavalry queue from the rear.
Bang bang bang!
Bursts of crisp gunfire rang out, and bursts of gunpowder smoke rose up, and the cavalry of the White Dragon Army such as Penghu and the other White Dragons who crashed into the Tartar cavalry array from the rear first shot out the two short guns they were each equipped with as usual.
Then, they drew their sabers and spears, slashed and stabbed at the Tartar cavalry in front, and directly attacked these Tartar cavalry on both sides with the White Dragon Army cavalry on Li Zixiao's side.
The sudden attack from behind, as well as the escape of Duoduo, directly made the four thousand Tartar cavalry who were flanked on both sides panic.
The Tatar cavalry, which was in turmoil, was not as strong as before, but they were still fighting desperately.
"Iron-clad thunder, cast!"
Peng Hao also gave the order to project iron-shelled mines, but at this time, the Tartars were densely blocked in this open field, and the iron-shelled mines were thrown into their cavalry group, which could cause the greatest damage.
Boom Boom!
Ril, lil!
Sure enough, with a burst of more than thirty iron-shelled mines, they were thrown over by the cavalry of the White Dragon Army.
After the explosion, the horses of the seventeen or eighteen Tartar cavalry around them were immediately injured, or they were frightened, and the neighing of the horses lifted several Tartar cavalrymen off their horses.
"Keep casting!"
Peng Hao's eyes were cold, he didn't lead people to rush in front, but stood behind on horseback, staring coldly at the battlefield ahead.
"Ahhh
Poof, poof!
Ahead, although the Tatar cavalry was in turmoil, they were worthy of being a hundred victorious soldiers, and they were still fighting tenaciously at this time, and the casualties of the soldiers on both sides were increasing sharply.
But fortunately, because Peng Hao unexpectedly came out from behind, the situation on the battlefield at this time was advantageous, and he once again fell to the side of the White Dragon Army.
Although the Tartar cavalry was still resisting with all their might, when they killed and wounded the cavalry, they were more than the White Dragon Army's side.
The fierce and chaotic battle lasted for more than half an hour.
In this open field, which originally belonged to the people's fields, many cavalry and war horse corpses fell, including Tartar cavalry and White Dragon Army cavalry.
Blood stained this field, and it is estimated that after the beginning of spring next year, the crops planted in this field will definitely have a bumper harvest.
After more than half an hour of fighting between the cavalry of both sides, the Tartar cavalry kept trying to save the defeat, and all fought bravely, and no Tartar cavalry fled.
"The tenacity of the Tartar cavalry is even more than Ben Jue expected!"
Looking at this time, even if they were caught between two loaves of bread, the main general fled, the formation was scattered, and the morale was low, those Tartar cavalry who were still fighting hard, Li Zixiao's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice.
"However, no matter how tenacious the Tartars are, Benjue still wins this battle."
Immediately, Li Zixiao said in a cold voice.
"Break through, break through with all your might."
At this time, because of Duoduo's escape, one of his Tartar generals, Guye, stood up in time and was responsible for directing the Tartar cavalry to fight.
At the same time, at this point in the battle, Gu Ye clearly realized that they had lost this battle.
Looking at the Tartar cavalry on both sides that were constantly being killed and the space being compressed, Gu Ye knew that if they didn't retreat, they would most likely be surrounded and annihilated here today.
Things came to this point, even if Gu Ye was unwilling, he had to shout loudly at the panicked Tartar cavalry and order a breakthrough.
More importantly, at this time, Gu Ye was worried about the safety of Duoduo.
This time, if Duoduo had been killed or captured, the matter would have been worse than if all of their four thousand Tartar cavalry had died here.
"Kill, rush out with Ben and retreat into the woods to the northwest!"
Guye roared eagerly, causing the Tartar cavalry to break through with all their strength and retreat into the woods.
The Tartar cavalry, who were flanked by the White Dragon Army's cavalry, had only one way to retreat into the woods from the northwest, that is, the woods that Duoduo had just fled into.
It was also the weakest link in the cavalry strength of the White Dragon Army, and Gu Ye decisively chose to break through from here.
Under normal circumstances, cavalry would not trespass into the woods if they did not actively hide their tracks.
But in this case, the Tartar cavalry had no choice.
It's just that these Tartar cavalry can't be withdrawn if they want to, and the White Dragon Army cavalry will not be easy to give them this opportunity.
Anyway, when the Tartar cavalry retreated at this time, the White Dragon Army cavalry took advantage of the situation to cover up behind.
And on the woods to the northwest, no one from the White Dragon Army has passed.
Around the three queyi, the woods are the opening for Li Zixiao to give the Tartar cavalry to escape.
Li Zixiao was worried that if he completely surrounded the 4,000 Tartar cavalry, he would really fight against the water when he saw that they had no way to retreat.
This kind of Tartar spirit horseman, the combat power that bursts out, I'm afraid it will really make them turn the tables.
You must know that the cavalry of the White Dragon Army under Li Zixiao, although the situation is advantageous at this time, the number of their cavalry is only 4,000, and the advantage is not too great.
In addition to these Tatar cavalry, even now, they have not completely collapsed and are still resisting stubbornly.
In this way, Li Zixiao knew that he would not dare to eat this Tatar cavalry in one bite today, and if one of them was not good, he would be broken in his belly.
Therefore, after Peng Hao led the army to kill, Li Zixiao took the initiative to let the standard-bearer give Peng Hao an order.
To keep him from blocking the woods is to deliberately leave hope for the Tartars.
Finally, when the battle reached this point, the Tartars finally couldn't hold on and chose to retreat.
This withdrawal can be regarded as completely discharging the last fighting spirit of those Tartar cavalry.
The Tartar cavalry who embarked on the road of escape had no intention of fighting anymore and only cared about fleeing for their lives.
At this time, these Tartar cavalry were no different from the Ming soldiers who had been chased and fled by them in the past, looking frightened and desperate to flee.
The Tartar cavalry this time was no longer a retreat, but a rout, which were completely two concepts.
The Tartar cavalry retreated, and was able to achieve that the formation was not chaotic, the morale of the army was not scattered, and it was orderly, and quickly left the battlefield with very few casualties.
But this time in a rout, the cavalry of the White Dragon Army, who were chasing behind, were reduced to a one-sided pursuit.
"Ahh
With a scream, the Tartar cavalry who fled at the rear were chased by the cavalry of the White Dragon Army and killed with knives and guns or short guns.
The battle lasted for so long, and many of the White Dragon Army cavalry, who were unable to participate in the battle for a while, also quickly found the right time to reload their short guns with ammunition.
This came in handy when pursuing the defeated Tartar cavalry.
"The whole army is in pursuit!"
Li Zixiao saw that the Tartars had completely collapsed, and decisively gave the order for the whole army to pursue, and the cavalry of the White Dragon Army directly pursued and killed the Tartar cavalry and chased into the woods.
