Da Ming started to ascend the throne

Chapter 840

"Abandon the phalanx, get on the horse and kill the enemy, shoot out all the bullets and fight with them with bayonets..."

"Yes"

Meng Liang was young and courageous. Seeing that Zhang Fugui personally led the cavalry of the Little Tigers to kill them, he decided to attack the cavalry of the Yeerqiang Khanate with Zhang Fugui.

So he immediately ordered more than 2000 people under his command to abandon the phalanx, and the Little Tigers got on their horses and pulled out their guns, and charged head-on at the cavalry of the Yarkand Khanate.

With firearms dominant, those veteran generals of Ming Dynasty would not use this style of fighting at all. They are afraid that their subordinates will die in battle. Even their emperors do not approve of such fighting. They must first ensure the lives of their soldiers before they have a chance to fight back. . 888888888888888888888888
The veterans said they did this, mainly because they had never failed before, and they had no chance to meet the enemy's bayonet. If they were really forced to this point, they would definitely work hard.

Meng Liang is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, and he led two thousand men to rush forward. Such a small number of people are either desperate or looking for death. Maota waved his hand, and the Yeerqiang Khan cavalry immediately formed a semi-encirclement and rushed towards them, ready to kill them. Eat them all in one bite.

Meng Liang took the lead in raising his gun to the two cavalrymen who were rushing towards him and raised his hand twice. As a result, one of them was shot in the head and the other was shot down and his life and death were unknown.

Suddenly, all the 2000 people behind Meng Liang drew their guns and fired at the cavalry not far in front. They shot at such a short distance that almost no bullets were missed, and a burst of bullets shot out, killing nearly a thousand leaves in an instant. Erqiang cavalry.

The Yarkand Khanate has not had any wars at all in recent years. Soldiers rarely have the opportunity to actually fight, and it takes little effort to fight some small countries.

Originally, I was exhausted from being killed by the Ming army's firearms. I wanted to squeeze a soft persimmon. I didn't expect that these people were all like little tigers. They rushed up to attack them. I don't know what they used. They just raised their hands and killed one. cavalry.

Where did they dare to fight? Just as they were about to flee, they found that the Ming army had grabbed the bayonet-mounted firearms. It was obvious that they were going to fight hand-to-hand with the Yarkand cavalry. Seeing this happening, the Yarkand Khan cavalry came immediately The spirit immediately rushed towards Meng Liang and the others.

"Bang bang..."

Suddenly gunshots rang out all around, Mao Ta raised his head and looked around, only to see that there were Ming soldiers in all directions, they were already surrounded, this guy almost fell off his horse.

"Where... where did these Ming troops come from? Could it be that the sky around me can't..."

If the Yarkand cavalry were scattered and fled in all directions, it would be difficult for the Ming army to chase them down. When they heard the sound of gunshots all around, they looked up and saw the dragon flags of the Ming Dynasty fluttering high everywhere. There is also a big Zhu character written on it.

"Haha... General, look quickly, Your Highness has arrived with an army..."

It was Zhu Cihong's 2 troops and Huang Dahu's 5000 troops who arrived in time. From the other direction, Li Yan also led an army of [-] troops. All that could be seen was the flying Minglong flag.

No matter which direction the defeated generals of the Yarkand Khanate flee, there will be countless Ming soldiers in front of them. Although the Western Regions are large, there is no way for them to escape.

All the surrounding Ming soldiers rode on horseback and raised their guns, and shot and killed the Yarkand cavalry directly. No matter where they fled, they would meet Ming soldiers with firearms.

In half a stick of incense time, only 500 of the [-] cavalry led by Maota were left. Maota's own thigh and abdomen were also hit by mini bombs. Looking at the overwhelming Ming army, Maota sighed and ordered Surrender to save your life.

"Surrender! There is no possibility of escape..."

The ambush was not successful, but the entire army was wiped out. More than 500 people could only jump off their horses and kneel down to surrender.

Zhang Fugui led his subordinates to urge the horses to come to them, thinking of the casualties under his command, he raised his hand:
"shot"

"Bang bang..."

A burst of gunfire rang out, and the [-] remaining cavalrymen of Yarkand Khan were killed by the Little Tigers. Seeing the corpses of horses and soldiers of Yarkand Khan cavalry all over the ground, Zhang Fugui let out a sigh of relief:

"Take a count of the people and horses, and report them immediately."

"Yes"

When the soldiers were counting the men and horses, Zhang Fugui and Meng Liang urged the horses to get off in front of Zhu Cihong and Li Yanma, and knelt down in front of them with a "plop".

"Zhang Fugui and Meng Liang are incompetent. This battle caused great losses to the brothers. Your Highness, please punish them."

Before Zhu Cihong could speak, Zhang Fugui said again:
"The defeat in this battle is the responsibility of Zhang Fugui alone. Meng Liang is not at fault at all. Please don't punish Meng Liang, Your Highness!"

When Meng Liang heard Zhang Fugui's words, he immediately became unwilling. The two were originally the chief and deputy commanders of an army, and they should share the responsibility for the defeat of the army. He didn't want Zhang Fugui to take the blame alone.So he clasped his fists to Zhu Cihong and said:
"Your Highness, don't listen to Zhang Fugui's nonsense. As the deputy general of this army, Meng Liang is not responsible for the defeat of the army. Please punish him, Your Highness."

Seeing the two of them like this, Zhu Cihong's mood also began to become heavy. He felt that this battle might suffer the heaviest loss since the defense of the capital. They are both newcomers, and the tuition fees still have to be paid.

"Pingshen, quickly tap the horses and horses, and immediately report the number of losses."

"Yes"

"Your Highness."

Li Yan bowed his hands to Zhu Cihong and said:

"Your Highness, it is the first time for them to lead troops as the main lecturers. They don't have much experience, so they can be punished as appropriate. I wonder what Your Highness thinks?"

Zhu Cihong nodded:

"General, as the coach of the Western Expedition, I also have a lot of responsibility for the failure of my subordinates. I can't shirk all the responsibility on them. How to punish them depends on the casualties before making a decision."

Li Yan knew Zhu Cihong's character, so he didn't talk to Zhu Cihong any more, turned around and said to his subordinates:
"Here's an order to camp on the spot, light a fire and cook, and the military doctors will try their best to treat the wounded soldiers..."

Before Li Yan finished speaking, Zhu Cihong interrupted and said:

"All the soldiers who died in battle should also be buried here! Build a tall monument for them, so that all people who pass by here will know who shed blood and threw their heads for the restoration of the Western Regions..."

"Yes"

The order was conveyed immediately, and 10,000+ people set up camp on the spot, and stormed Turpan one day later.

At this time, several thousand households who had gone to count the casualties came back.

Zhu Cihong, Li Yan, Zhang Fugui, Meng Liang, Huang Dahu and Huang Xiaohu and other Ming generals all stared at them. Everyone was very nervous at this moment, they were worried about the number of casualties.
