Dangdang!

The sound of the golden gong of the retreating soldiers sounded in the camp of the Ming army, and soon it was also heard by Hao Qiang and Tong Hai, who were pursuing the Tartar cavalry.

"Stop the pursuit!"

When Hao Qiang heard the sound of the golden gong behind him, he knew that this was Lu Xiangsheng's order to let them give up the pursuit, so he decisively ordered the 10,000 Ming cavalry led by him to stop the pursuit of the Tartar cavalry.

At the same time, on the other side, Tong Hai also ordered to stop the pursuit, and the cavalry of the 20,000 Ming army gradually slowed down their horses and stopped the pursuit of the Tartar cavalry.

"Lord Wang, the Ming Dog Cavalry has stopped pursuing."

A Tartar cavalryman followed Hauge at this time, found out about the situation of the Ming cavalry behind him, and reported to Hauge.

Hauge was also on his horse, turned his head to look behind, and sure enough, he found that the 20,000 Ming cavalry had gradually slowed down their horses and stopped pursuing them.

At this time, a ruthless light flashed in Haoge's eyes, and he showed contempt, and said coldly: "These Ming Dog's cavalry are really messy, and they are simply vulnerable compared to our Qing warriors.

It is simply a shame for this king to be pursued by these weak Ming dog cavalry. ”

After speaking, Hao Ge shouted loudly: "The warriors of the Qing Dynasty, go back with this king, kill all these Ming dog cavalry, and let them see what a real cavalry is."

Kill this king back. ”

"Kill back, kill Minggou!"

When the Tartar cavalry heard Hauge's shout, they also roared excitedly and shouted loudly.

Then, the elite cavalry of the 5,000 Tartars with yellow flags, like a giant python, flexibly turned a big bend in this wilderness, turned back and killed the 20,000 cavalry of the Ming army behind.

The 5,000 Tartar-inlaid yellow banner cavalry led by Hauge skillfully and quickly completed a sharp turn, and then kept the speed of the horse unabated, and turned back to kill.

And like the Tartar cavalry, while keeping the ranks in chaos and the speed of the horses not slowing down, so many cavalry can quickly complete sharp turns without confusion, the cavalry of the Ming army cannot do it.

Therefore, when Hao Jian and Tong Hai heard the sound of Lu Xiangsheng's golden gong to withdraw their troops, they could only order the tens of thousands of cavalry behind them to stop.

When Hao Ge led 5,000 Tartar cavalry with yellow flags and turned back to kill, the 20,000 Ming cavalry led by Hao Qiang and Tong Hai stopped not long ago.

They just turned back to the camp, and many of the cavalry had already turned to run towards the camp, but more of the Ming generals' cavalry were still behind, and their horses had not yet run.

As a result, Hao Jian and Tong Hai discovered that the Tartars, who were supposed to be evacuated, actually came back to the carbine, and after they turned around and killed, they were also shocked.

"Prepare for battle, the Tartar cavalry has returned."

At this time, I am afraid that it will not work to continue to retreat.

The Tartar cavalry galloping back at full speed was too fast, and Hao Qiang could only roar, so that the Ming cavalry would not continue to withdraw their promises, but re-prepare for battle.

However, it's still too late, 20,000 Ming cavalry, this is a very large team.

It is not possible to deploy it quickly in a short period of time, and the quality of these Ming cavalry is also very poor.

Thundered!

The horse's hooves shook the sky, and the 5,000 cavalry of the Tartars quickly came back, but the 20,000 cavalry of the Ming army could only respond to the battle in a hurry, and they didn't even mention the speed of the horse.

Looking at the murderous spirit, the fighting spirit was boiling, and the screaming Tartar cavalry came over, many Ming cavalry rode on war horses, their legs were trembling, and they were on the verge of collapse before they could hand over their warrior spirit!

Bang!

Then, no doubt, the two cavalrymen collided violently.

And at that moment, the elite of the 5,000 Tartar cavalry with yellow flags was like a sharp knife, piercing the formation of the 20,000 Ming cavalry without any resistance.

Half a day later, the Tartar cavalry cut through the formation of 20,000 Ming cavalry.

"This ...... How is this possible? ”

Tong Hai looked at the cavalry team that was already in chaos and panicked, and his face was also incredulous.

In the ensuing battle, the Tartar cavalry completely took over the battlefield, the Ming cavalry formation was chiseled through, and the morale completely collapsed.

This battle between the cavalry of the two armies was not as fierce as imagined, but in the end it evolved into a massacre of 5,000 Tartar cavalry against 20,000 Ming cavalry.

"Help! Yes! ”

A Ming cavalryman looked frightened and frantically rushed back towards the Ming army camp, but the Ming cavalry was constantly chased by the Tartar cavalry, killed with a knife, or killed by an arrow.

There were constantly cavalry soldiers of the Ming army who fell off their horses, and only a few elites of the 20,000 cavalry of the Ming army could really organize a resistance.

The vast majority of cavalry, the moment the formation was chiseled through by the Tartar cavalry, and the formation collapsed, their will had also collapsed.

These Ming cavalry, whose mental will had collapsed, basically gave up resistance, completely fell into prey, and were wantonly pursued and killed by the Tartar cavalry.

5,000 elite Tartar cavalry with yellow flags, against 20,000 Ming cavalry, the result was a complete defeat of the Ming army!

No one could have thought of this, and Lu Xiangsheng and other generals of the Ming army were also stunned by the wall at this time.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Ming army in the camp looked outside the camp at this time, and those Tartar cavalry continued to chase and kill their companions.

regarded them all as prey, and this scene also frightened many Ming army generals and soldiers, and the entire Ming army camp was covered with a layer of haze at this time.

At this time, Lu Xiangsheng stood on the wall, holding a clairglass mirror with one hand, which was seen more clearly by other Ming army generals.

He watched with his own eyes the hordes of Ming cavalry, being chased and killed by the Tartar cavalry, but he had no backhand.

The 20,000 Ming cavalry was defeated in this way, and Lu Xiangsheng never expected that the Tartar cavalry would dare to kill a horse gun.

"It's Ben Shuai's fault!"

Lu Xiangsheng grabbed the wood of the walled wall with one hand, and because of how hard he used, the sharp wooden thorns pierced his palm and pierced into the flesh, and he didn't notice it at all.

In fact, this can't be blamed on Lu Xiangsheng, and other Ming generals also didn't expect that the Tatar cavalry would dare to kill a horse pistol, after all, there are 20,000 cavalry on the Ming army's side!

But the result was very unexpected, Hauge's return to the horse pistol was a great success, and more importantly, the difference between the 20,000 Ming cavalry and the Tatar cavalry was too great.

The 20,000 cavalry of the Ming army is simply like an infantry with a horse, which is not even as good as the cavalry of the Ming army two years ago.

In the first battle of Songjin, the last elite of the Ming army was basically lost, and even the thirty or forty thousand horses brought back by Lu Xiangsheng in the end were all left in Shanhaiguan at this time.

Now the 120,000 troops in Lu Xiangsheng's hands are all Weisuo Army, and they have just been recruited in the beginning of spring this year, so it is conceivable what the combat strength is.

More than ten years ago, the Tartars dared to kill tens of thousands of horses of the Ming army with thousands of cavalry, and they did not dare to leave the city, so they could only retreat in the city.

On the one hand, this is because the Ming generals are afraid of war, but it is also because the defenders of the Ming Dynasty were afraid of being killed by the Tartars outside the pass, and they really didn't dare to go out of the city.

At this time, the Ming Dynasty's domestic guard army was basically rotten and vulnerable.

The only elite of the 100,000 border troops that can be used is about the same as the loss in the first battle of Songjin last year.

As the old saying goes, 'one general is incompetent, and three armies are exhausted', but a lion with a large number of lambs is no match for wolves.

Now, this is the case with Lu Xiangsheng.

"Marshal, send troops out of the village to meet the two generals, Hao Qiang and Tong Hai."

At this time, there was finally a Ming general on the wall, who couldn't stand it anymore, and pleaded to Lu Xiangsheng.

But Lu Xiangsheng looked back at the surrounding wall, a famous archer and firecracker.

Looking at the fear in their eyes, many people's hands holding bows and arrows trembled slightly, making him sigh and shake his head.

It is not easy for such soldiers to hold bows and arrows and fire guns to guard the wall.

It is simply a fool's dream to expect them to go out of the village to fight the fierce Tartar cavalry and pick up Hao Qiang and Tong Hai back.

If Lu Xiangsheng opens the gate of the village and sends foot soldiers out of the city to meet Hao Qiang and them, it will give the Tartar cavalry the opportunity to cover up and enter the village.

Don't look at the fact that there are only more than 5,000 people in the family, and the 120,000 army on his side, Lu Xiangsheng does not dare to take this risk.

War is not decided by the number of people, otherwise even if the Tartars reproduce for another hundred years, they will not be able to enter the level.

The population of any big city in the Ming Dynasty can exceed the number of the entire Tartar clan.

On the battlefield, once the situation collapses, the warriors lose their fighting spirit, and a rout occurs, the more miscellaneous armies there are, the faster they will be defeated.

Lu Xiangsheng read through the history books, and there are such painful lessons in history, and he knows it very well.

Therefore, at this time, he didn't dare to open the gate of the village and sent someone to pick up Hao Qiang and them back.

At this time, Hao Qiang and Tong Hai outside the city could only rely on their own strength to escape back to the camp.

"Brothers, gather at me, fight together, and withdraw to the camp, quick!"

Hao Qiang rode on his war horse and shouted loudly, so that the Ming cavalry, who were already in chaos around him, converged with him and then retreated in the direction of the camp.

Finally, at a heavy price, Hao Qiang rushed out of the encirclement of the Tartars with hundreds of fairly elite Ming cavalry, and rushed all the way to the camp.

But more Ming cavalry were killed and scattered by the Tartars, and they all fled around, because the direction of fleeing to the camp was the direction that the Tartar cavalry focused on pursuing.

"General Hao, General Tong was surrounded by Tartars and didn't rush out?"

As soon as Hao Qiang broke out of the encirclement, he heard his cronies shouting loudly.

Hao Qiang looked back, and sure enough, he saw that many Ming cavalry were still surrounded by the Tartars at this time, including Tong Hai, and the Tartars divided a team of cavalry and were fighting around them.

"Damn, you can't leave General Tong Hai, brothers, and kill Ben back."

Hao Qiang gritted his teeth and turned back to kill back.

At this time, although the battle situation of the 20,000 Ming cavalry was already one-sided, there were still Ming cavalry resisting, but in the end most of them were killed by the Tartar cavalry.

Hao Qiang led people to re-enter the battlefield and went straight to Tong Hai's side.

"General Hao, why are you back again, you shouldn't have come back!"

Tong Hai, who was in the encirclement, said sadly when he saw Hao Qiang come back again.

"General Tong, if the two of us lead the army together, we must kill it together, or we will die on the battlefield together, and I, Hao Qiang, will not give up my brother."

"Haha, okay, General Hao, with your words, you brother, I admit it."

"General Tong, organize the soldiers to go out with us, we still have a chance to kill back to the camp."

"Okay."

Immediately, the two immediately reorganized the Ming cavalry gathered around them and broke through in the direction of the camp again.

This cavalry battle lasted until dark, and Hao Qiang and Tong Hai finally fled back to the camp with more than 2,000 Ming cavalry.

The Tartar cavalry pursued them all the way to the gate of the wall, but they were fired upon by the archers and musketeers of the Ming army on the wall, and Hauge immediately ordered to retreat without attacking the camp.

Later, many small groups of Ming cavalry fled back one after another, and it was impossible for the Tartar cavalry to kill all the 20,000 Ming cavalry.

With the exception of the Ming cavalry, which was killed by the Tartars, most of the Ming cavalry fled, and a small part was able to escape back to the camp.

"Okay, Minggou is really getting weaker and weaker, or Wu Sangui's Minggou is more powerful."

After Hauge led the Tartars to defeat the 20,000 cavalry of the Ming army, he was in a very good mood and laughed arrogantly.

Hauge then led the remaining Tartar cavalry to demonstrate outside Lu Xiangsheng's camp, and as it became dark, he left westward.

"Whew, it's gone."

Seeing that the Tatar cavalry had finally withdrawn, Du Xun breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, he turned to look at Lu Xiangsheng, who was gloomy and silent, and said sarcastically: "Marshal Lu, the court boasts that you are the 'god of the army', and when I see this prison army today, you are not worthy of your name!"

This prison army will tell the Holy God the details of this battle, and you will not be able to escape the blame for this battle. ”

Lu Xiangsheng was already in a terrible mood at this time, and Ben Duxun's ridicule at this time made him even more annoyed.

Lu Xiangsheng turned his head sharply and glared at Du Xun, his eyes were red, and he said unkindly: "The surname Du, how should you tell the saint, it's your business, you don't need to tell Ben Shuai."

The responsibility for the defeat of this battle will be borne by the marshal, and there is no need for you to remind him, and in the future, he will talk less in front of the marshal.

Otherwise, the next time there is a war, if Ben Shuai is not careful, it is not good to protect your prison army, and you disappear, and the saint will blame Ben Shuai. ”

"You ......"

Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's hinted threat, Du Xun was angry in his heart and wanted to contradict Lu Xiangsheng again, but was frightened by Lu Xiangsheng's eyes.

Du Xun was really worried that if Lu Xiangsheng secretly calculated him next, he would really have a chance to kill him.

In the final analysis, Lu Xiangsheng is still the commander of the three armed forces at this time, and it is not difficult to design and kill him, a prison army with no real power.

Lu Xiangsheng was also angry at this time, otherwise Lu Xiangsheng would not be so threatening under normal circumstances.

"Hmph, Lu Xiangsheng, you can do it yourself."

In the end, Du Xun left a cruel word, and then waved his sleeves and left the wall with the two accompanying little eunuchs.

"The surname is Lu, you wait, after the miscellaneous family goes back, I will write a chapter to the saint and sue you for a chapter, so that you dare to threaten the miscellaneous family."

On the way back, Du Xun was thinking about how to complain to Chongzhen in his heart, and was thinking about how to write a complaint.
