To the north of the mound is a shallow river, and people can only cross it up to the ankle. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This river is called the Black River, and the Black River is not difficult to cross, but it separates the two armies of the north and south.

However, it is clear that this barrier will not last long.

Soon, the upper reaches of the Black River were cut off.

The river dries up, revealing a sandy riverbed.

The minister who was riding on the horse put down the clairvoyant mirror, and his brows jumped slightly: "It is worthy of being a Han person, and none of these soldiers have fallen behind in the ability to farm the land, so soon a dam was established upstream to block the water of the Heihe River." ”

At this time, it is not yet the rainy season in the Tumut Department, the rain is scarce, and the flow of the Black River is also scarce. The upstream was intercepted in an instant, and the last barrier to the Naturalization City was dissipated.

On the side, the breathing of the Tumut tribe Zasak Wenbuchulu suddenly became short.

He watched the Ming army continue to advance, and his heart tightened.

The Ming army's queue was very neat, and the movement was very steady.

With such a stable infantry battle formation, any Mongolian general would only have a headache when he saw it. Even in the years when the Mongol Empire once existed, pure cavalry troops would only have a headache and frown when they encountered the infantry battle formations of the Han Chinese.

But now, the Mongol warriors, who have been called home, no longer choose to retreat.

They want to be upright, fight the majesty of the Mongols in one battle, and bury this Ming army that dared to go north to attack the Mongolian steppe!

The Ming army had slowly begun to advance, and they quickly crossed the Gray River.

The dry riverbed had nothing to stop them except for a slight softness.

Soon, the distance between the two armies was already very close, and the soldiers in the vanguard were only a thousand paces away from each other.

At this time, there was not a single remaining living creature in the landmark within a radius of thousands of steps. Asuka felt the solemn atmosphere, and the beast sniffed the air, as if premoniting the bloody scene to come.

Only an unknown bird wandered far away, stopping from time to time on a few old trees in the distance, looking at the black gas that surrounded them inexplicably, some well-informed veterans recognized that this was a vulture, a scavenger, that is to say...... Animals that eat dead bodies.

The north wind blew suddenly at this moment, fierce and swift, with a trace of cold that penetrated into the bones.

Ding Gaotian tightened his neck slightly and held the ZTE rifle in his hand.

Feeling the cold in the military coat, Ding Gaotian stomped his feet and moved slightly.

Soon, the order from the platoon commander sounded: pay attention to the queue, don't move around, in a while, the battle will begin.

No one will take the initiative to engage in a war ceremony.

The proximity of the two dangerous beings was accompanied by a growing tension.

The war, as quickly as it was visible to the naked eye, seemed to have permeated the land with the breath of death. It's just that everyone tried their best to use the weapons in their hands to tell the god of death: your mission is to take away the enemy in front of you.

The big battle was coming, and the surrounding comrades-in-arms were nervous, but as they gradually approached, Ding Gaotian discovered a magical situation again. Seeing that many veterans and officers were still advancing calmly, obeying the orders of their superiors, and occasionally changing the battle formation, the tension and anxiety of the comrades-in-arms gradually calmed down.

As for the soldiers under Ding Gaotian, when they looked at Ding Gaotian's indifferent expression, they also quietly and unconsciously regained their calm.

"Squad leader, you say, how can I be as calm as you? A few days ago, I heard from our company commander that you were an elite soldier like a sea god. "A recruit said.

"Don't wear a top hat for Lao Tzu." Ding Gaotian scolded with a smile: "You guys, even if you don't put a hat on me, I will take you to kill the enemy." Dinghaishen is a fart, and he doesn't mean that we people are taking the lead. We've crawled out of the dead man's pile a few times. I've seen dead people, and I've almost died myself, so I'm calmer. As for how to calm down......"

Ding Gaotian suddenly resounded when he was talking about this topic with his little friend Wu Wanying.

It was a time when a group of horse thieves attacked the regimental headquarters, and Wu Wanying picked up a three-eyed gun with steamed buns. Although the horse thieves were surrounded and annihilated by the brothers of the combat unit in the end, Wu Wanying's composure on the battlefield for the first time still left a deep impression on Ding Gaotian.

At that time, Ding Gaotian also asked Wu Wanying like this.

Why, he was able to pick up the three-eyed gun so calmly.

"Because I want to live. Since the days when he started to be a soldier, Lao Tzu has not thought of retreating. If you don't retreat, you can only kill all the enemies who come to attack. When they die, I will survive. It's as simple as that...... Of course, you have to ask me what the secret...... Perhaps, I want to go home and be a dignified and great man to see my sister......" That day, Wu Wanying's eyes shook Ding Gaotian.

Thinking back to these words, the corners of Ding Gaotian's mouth were crooked, his smile was crooked, and he laughed and said: "Who is afraid of death, but if you want to live like a man, then you can't frown at the knife." The person opposite is also a head on two shoulders, what can't be killed? Remember, brothers...... Go to the battlefield and kill all the enemies you see in front of you, and you will survive. Alive...... Come home alive. ”

In the team, everyone listened to Ding Gaotian's words and gradually calmed down.

The anxiety was slowly relieved, and the soldiers' eyes were refreshed.

At this time, the drumbeat from the Chinese army gradually sounded.

This is a prelude to an imminent offensive.

And the Mongol army, which was only a few hundred paces away, also began to act.

The number of Mongol troops in front of him was about 30,000.

Obviously, their forces far outnumbered the Ming army. Compared with the more than 12,000 people before the Ming army finally arrived in Guihua City, the Mongolian tribal alliance soldiers who gathered reinforcements from various tribes such as the Tumut Department, the Ordos Department, and the Chahar tribe were numerous, which seemed even more imposing.

The cavalry army gathered together seemed to be very powerful, but when the number reached the order of 30,000 people, it landed on the entire grassland, and the eastern and western horizons seemed to be filled, and there was no end in sight at a glance.

People are boundless immediately.

30,000 soldiers and horses are enough to discharge three boundless battle formations. So much so that it was not until more than ten zhang in the air that the edge of the Mongol battle formation could be clearly seen.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

A dull drum beat sounded.

This is the prelude to the offensive being sounded.

Similarly, the sound of the neighing of the war horse also sounded at this moment.

The words of the Mongols of all colors rang out on the battlefield.

"Woobu Chuhuer, you go around from the west and outflank the right side of the Ming."

"Bayindai, Bayindai, you attack the left flank of the Mingren."

"I, Jinong of the Ordos Department, will lead all the warriors of my Ordos Department, a total of fifteen thousand people, to attack from the front!"

The voice of the Elu minister sounded, and one order after another was conveyed one after another, and everyone responded with a bang when they heard the words.

Bayindai looked at the resolute gaze of the Erlinchen and opened his mouth, but some words were not spoken. There is no doubt that charging the infantry with cavalry is a very uneconomical deal.

Because, most of the time, the cavalry of the Mongols was light cavalry. Carrying a bow, riding a horse, attacking and harassing the enemy, he was defeated in one fell swoop after he was exhausted.

Therefore, the task led by Bayindai and Wenbu Chuhuer can be said to be relatively easy to complete, and it is also the task that can give full play to the strength of their soldiers and horses. To put it simply, it's a good job.

But facing the infantry battle formation of the Ming army from the front is definitely a losing deal.

The Ming people's firepower was strong, and it was even more difficult for the infantry to overcome after the formation.

But he took the most difficult task himself.

He understood that the fate of the Ordos Ministry and the Tumut Department had been quietly put on the table of fate at this moment. The moment has come to decide the fate of Monan Mongolia.

At this time, it is no longer time to talk about self-interest, about whose task is good or bad.

This is undoubtedly a spirit of fearless heroism and a spirit of dedication to the collective self. Such a spirit made Bayindai suddenly ashamed of his selfishness.

Of course, for a high-ranking general, these little personal emotions quickly dissipated.

He understands that on the battlefield, it is more important to win. And as a Manchurian, as the capital of the Qing Empire in the city of Guihua, no matter how much he appreciates a rebellious moral standard, he can't let the balance of inner interests to move him to change his original mind.

Soldiers and horses on both sides of the left flank were sent out.

The sound of the iron hooves of the war horse trampled on the ground, the dull sound of the horse's hooves resounded in a radius of thousands of steps, and the sound of the vibrating horses' hooves seemed to trample on the tips of everyone's hearts, making people cheer up all their spirits to prepare for the next war.

He looked at the different gazes of the soldiers under his command, and looked at each other one by one, trying to penetrate the hearts of all the generals.

Eventually, he set his sights on the most powerful warrior in the Ordos Ministry.

It was the ninth son of Exuanchen, Qinggeltai.

"Qinggeltai, lead your heavy cavalry, attack! Use your iron cavalry to break through the Akito's formation! He shouted.

Chingel Tai responded proudly.

Then, a troop of 3,000 men appeared in front of everyone.

Unlike most Mongols, who only rode horses, carried horned bows, carried scimitars, and wore shabby clothes as armor. This part of the army refreshed everyone's impression of the Mongol cavalry.

Because, these people turned out to be heavily armed, from beginning to end, armed to the teeth.

"It's heavy cavalry!" In the Ming army's formation, Xia Chen's tone suddenly became serious.

"Wearing iron armor, all men and horses are armored, this is heavy cavalry. Unexpectedly, the Mongols also moved out the heavy cavalry! Xia Chen was amazed again and again.

But it's just an amazement.

Whether it is Chen Yongfu or Ni Yuanlu, they are not worried at all.

"It's really unthinkable that an existence that has been swept into the garbage heap of history a long time ago will be resurrected here." Ni Yuanlu chuckled: "It's hard to waste so much thought for the sake of Exuanchen, and it took the strength of the sky to get together so much armor." You know, in the past, I only needed to ban the output of the iron horse outside the plug, so that they could jump in a hurry. And now, he can count 3,000 heavy cavalry. Such a costly thing...... What a surprise. However, it also proves that my battle is right! ”

Obviously, the source of the weapons of these heavy cavalry was the armor and iron forts left behind by Dord.

I saw that the heavy cavalry of Qinggeltai's department was covered with iron armor all over his body, which was impermeable, covering all the places that would be attacked tightly, even the war horses were also wearing iron armor, and only two holes were chiseled in the eyes of the remaining war horses.

The same is true of the knight's body, which is covered by armor all over his body, except for where he breathes.

And their war horses are even taller and more godlike, and they are obviously the best horses selected by the Ordos Department with the strength of the entire tribe.

Only in this way can the knight be able to carry the weight of the knight plus the iron armor.

"Warriors of Ordos, follow me, charge!" Qing Ge Tai picked up the spear in his hand, this is an iron gun made of fine iron, Qing Ge Tai danced vigorously, slightly clamped the horse's belly, and the smart speed of the war horse under his command began to charge.

After that, three thousand horsemen followed.

The charge began.

He watched proudly as his warriors attacked.

Subsequently, he led the remaining more than 10,000 Ordos soldiers and horses to follow, preparing to tear and shred the entire Ming army's war after the heavy cavalry chiseled through the Ming people's battle array.

The charge launched by the 3,000 iron cavalry seemed to be even louder than the movement of the previous 30,000 Mongolian soldiers and horses.

Three thousand lumps of iron charged, as if a city had been moved and crushed.

Such a momentum is terrifying just by looking at it, and it is even more terrifying to face such a charge towards you.

As the first soldier in the whole army, Ding Gaotian walked in front of the soldiers under his command, stared at the tall war horses, and salivated: "These Mongolian Tatars are really fucking generous, after this battle, if you can capture these good horses, then you won't change anything." Such a good horse has never been ridden by the regimental commander! Today, brothers, fucking knock them down! ”

After saying that, the order from the company quickly came.

"Prepare the Ministries! Get ready to shoot! ”

Numerous orders were sounded one after another, and the Ming army stopped moving. In less than ten breaths, the battle array was ready.

The sound of reloading sounded, and the muzzles of guns were aimed at the enemy in front of them.

Rulin's spear was at the side of the musketeer's comrades at this moment.

In front of them, the steel torrent of three thousand heavily armored iron riders was getting closer and closer.

The sound of horses' hooves roared like thunder, and it shook everyone's ears.

Ding Gaotian looked at all this in front of him, bared his teeth, and said: "Brother Wanying, on the way to make contributions, I, Lao Ding, will go on the road first!" ”

Looking at the enemy troops who had entered a distance of eighty paces, the order of the regiment commander Zhang Ting was given: "Shoot!" ”

Ding Gaotian pulled the trigger. A buckshot shot out of the muzzle of a heavily armored knight, piercing the iron helmet and crashing into the furnace, killing one person instantly.

Then, like a torrential rain, a cloud of green smoke rose, and a rain of bullets flew away, hitting the rushing Mongol cavalry.

At the same time, on the peak of the green mound, Selene bared his teeth: "It's time for us to appear!" (To be continued.) )
