There was a sound of horseshoes, and a group of people and horses were galloping towards Wang Yangming's place. The leader was none other than the commander-in-chief Qi Zhen and a group of soldiers under his command.

When Chen Shan went to persuade Ma Guli to surrender, Qi Zhen brought his own soldiers to inquire about the news of the Tatars.

After all, no one knew what the Tatars would do, especially since Ma Guli was leading the most elite Golden Horde army in Tatars, Qi Zhen and others could not help but ignore it.

At this moment, Qi Zhen came galloping with a solemn expression on his face, and when he was far away, he got off his horse and strode towards Wang Yangming.

Wang Yangming's eyes fell on Qi Zhen, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and before Qi Zhen could speak, he said to Qi Zhen: "General Qi, but the Tatars have sent troops?"

Qi Zhen just paused his footsteps, bowed to Wang Yangming solemnly and said: "Go back to the governor, just as the governor said, Ma Guli led the army to come towards us."

Wang Yangming nodded slightly, a smile flashed in his eyes and said: "It's good if you come, it seems that Chen Shan didn't make this trip in vain."

Hearing this, Qi Zhen showed some doubts on his face, but Wang Yangming didn't say much, he just looked at Qi Zhen and said, "General Qi, you should immediately lead more than a thousand cavalry to fight against the Tatars!"

Qi Zhen couldn't help being stunned. The thousand or so cavalry said that there were not many, and that there were not many, but against the ten thousand Golden Horde troops under Shang Ma Guli's command, there was really no chance of winning.

Just when Qi Zhen was puzzled, Wang Yangming said again: "You must be defeated but not victorious. You must bring Ma Guli and others into the range of the artillery."

Qi Zhen, who was quite puzzled at first, was wondering why Wang Yangming asked him to lead more than a thousand horses to fight against the Tatars, but now he understood immediately, and immediately bowed to Wang Yangming and said, "The last general takes orders."

Speaking of which, Qi Zhen smiled and said to Wang Yangming: "Don't worry, the governor, I will definitely attract the Tatars. Besides, there are only a thousand troops, even if the general has great abilities, he will not be able to win. The elite Tatar army."

Wang Yangming smiled and said: "I will wait here for General Qi to bring the Tatars to die! Success or failure depends on one move, General Qi should be more careful."

Qi Zhen looked upright, cupped his fists at Wang Yangming, and immediately led his soldiers to turn and leave.

Soon, under the leadership of Qi Zhen, Qian Yuqi ran towards the direction of the Tatars.

It was almost time for a cup of tea, a few figures could be seen in the distance, when the other party approached, it wasn't the master and servant of Chen Shan who went to persuade Ma Guli to surrender, who else.

But at this moment, Chen Shan has obviously tidied up, and he doesn't look so embarrassed, but there is no way to replace his official uniform, so there is a faint smell of shame on his body.

Several officials breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Chen Shan's safe return, and someone asked Chen Shan, "Is Mr. Chen's trip going smoothly? Are Maguli willing to surrender?"

Chen Shan shook his head and said: "The barbarian in the bones, I tried my best to persuade him, but he didn't listen to the harsh advice, and he refused to surrender. He should be destroyed by my Ming Dynasty."

Someone heard the words and said with some admiration: "Master Chen has worked hard!"

Wang Yangming didn't open his mouth, but just looked at Chen Shan with a calm expression, and Chen Shan was guilty and didn't dare to look at Wang Yangming. Now he was dealing with a few colleagues, smelling the faint smell of shame on his body, Chen Shan coughed lightly and turned towards Wang Yangming. Wang Yangming said: "Great Governor, I have been traveling all the way, and I will go to change my clothes first, and then I will report to the Great Governor."

Wang Yangming waved his hand to signal Chen Shan to go down.

Chen Shan hurriedly took his servants to change his clothes.

Watching Chen Shan leave, Wang Yangming looked into the distance, his eyes full of solemnity and said lightly: "Since Chen Shan is back, I think it's time for the Tatars to come."

At this moment, Qi Zhen led more than a thousand riders and ran into the Tatar army several miles away.

The more than ten thousand Golden Horde Khan army is indeed worthy of being the elite of Dayan Khan's command. Both the momentum and the strength of the soldiers are extraordinary, and you can feel a mountain of pressure just by looking at it from a distance.

When the leading Tatar generals saw the Ming cavalry led by Qi Zhen from a distance, excitement and brutality flashed in their eyes.

One of them, Qianhu, waved a scimitar in his hand and shouted, while behind him, countless elite cavalry also bent their bows and set arrows or drew their scimitars.

Although Qi Zhen said that he was deeply shocked, but he was not disturbed after he was psychologically prepared, but he ordered his men and horses to shoot arrows from a distance.

Arrows fell like rain, because Qi Zhen didn't intend to confront the Tatars head-on, so he gave the order to release the arrows without waiting for the Tatars to rush forward.

Therefore, this wave of arrow rain seems to be quite powerful, but there are very few people who can actually hurt the Tatars. Also because of the range, the Tatars did not shoot arrows, and could only watch Qi Zhen and others After shooting a wave of arrows, he turned around and fled.

Seeing this situation, the leader of the Tatar Thousand Household Officer couldn't help roaring and urging his men to chase after him.

Among the central army, the core personnel of the army, such as Ma Guli and Alberrot, immediately got the news from the front.

Alboroth's eyes lit up and he said to Ma Guli: "It seems that we have encountered the vanguard of the Ming army. The Ming army has received news of our surprise attack and will soon be ready."

Ma Guli nodded slightly, a stern look flashed in his eyes and said: "Since we met the vanguard of the Ming army here, it means that the Ming army was not prepared. Then Chen Shan once said that Wang Yangming gathered a large number of artillery, trying to use Firearms are used to deal with our cavalry, but it takes time for the artillery to array, it depends on whether we can seize the time difference."

Alberrot's eyes faintly flashed with excitement and said: "This is our chance to severely injure Wang Yangming. Even if we can't kill Wang Yangming, at least we must destroy all the artillery of the Ming army. If we can destroy the Ming army in one battle If there is no firearms to help out, how could the mere Ming army be our opponents? Even Father Khan can return to the grassland without haste like this."

How powerful the artillery of the Ming army is, the Tatars have seen the two sides fight several times before.

Wang Yangming was in charge of the central army, and he was well dispatched. Taking advantage of the advantage of the camp and the power of the artillery, it was surprising that the Tatars could not take advantage of it.

Therefore, the Tatars are extremely afraid of the firearms of the Ming army.

Now that he has the opportunity to destroy most of the firearms of the Ming army, not to mention his numbness, even if Dayan Khan is here, he will choose to give it a try whenever he has the opportunity.

Ma Guli took a deep breath and shouted at the messenger beside him: "Blow the horn and order the whole army to charge quickly. We must enter the Ming army camp in the shortest possible time and destroy the Ming army's weapons."

The sound of the horn echoed in the air, and the speed of the Tatar army, which was galloping, increased again after hearing the sound of the horn.

Thousands of horses are galloping, smoke and dust are billowing, like a landslide and tsunami.

In the camp, Wang Yangming suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"coming!"

After learning that Dayan Khan ordered Ma Guli to lead more than ten thousand Golden Horde Khan troops, Wang Yangming thought about how to eat up this elite Tatar army.

If it is said that this Golden Horde Khan army has been eaten up this time, then the blow to Dayan Khan is definitely greater than the annihilation of tens of thousands of miscellaneous soldiers.

Having settled down, Wang Yangming said to the generals beside him: "Accord with the plan."

Several generals naturally knew about Wang Yangming's plan, seeing that the Tatars had been tricked by the Tatars, all of them showed excitement on their faces.

At this time, after listening to Wang Yangming's order, they immediately bowed to Wang Yangming and left, each following Wang Yangming's order.

Qi Zhen led more than a thousand riders to run wildly, the Golden Horde army shouting and roaring behind them, and the shocking sound of horseshoes, it was really like a landslide and a tsunami.

If it was an ordinary person, he would be scared out of his wits just listening to the movement behind him, but Qi Zhen looked back from time to time to make sure that the Tatars were coming after him, with a relaxed expression on his face. color.

However, Qi Zhen said cursingly: "Damn it, you really deserve to be the elite Tatars. If the Golden Horde army confronts them head-on, they may not be able to overwhelm them even if they don't have one or two troops."

As he spoke, Qi Zhen smiled a little and said: "It's a pity that after today, there are more than ten thousand Golden Horde troops left, and I don't know how much is left!"

The Tatars didn't know, but he, Qi Zhen, knew that just ahead, Wang Yangming had set up artillery positions, with hundreds of large and small artillery pieces and thousands of firecrackers waiting in line.

Although the Golden Horde Khan army can be called elite, the cavalry of the Ming army may not be able to contend in a head-on confrontation, but facing the bombardment of hundreds of artillery, no matter how elite the cavalry is, how can flesh and blood compete with firearms.

Just as he was approaching the Ming army's position, Qi Zhen suddenly let out a long roar, and immediately behind him, more than a thousand cavalrymen divided into two teams and headed towards the two wings of the army formation.

Qi Zhen led his men and horses to avoid the front of the army formation, and in the blink of an eye the Tatar army that was chasing after them appeared in sight.

Qi Town could go towards the two wings, but the Tatar army came to destroy the artillery of the Ming army, so they naturally chose to rush towards the camp of the Ming army.

The sound of the horn changed again, and it could be heard that the horn was high-spirited and fierce, and it was clear that it was urging the army to charge.

At this time, Wang Yangming was standing in front of a cannon with a binoculars in his hand. Through the binoculars, Wang Yangming could clearly see the movements of the Tatar army.

Putting down the binoculars, Wang Yangming smiled and said softly: "I never thought that the general would actually create such a wonderful thing. It is really a magic weapon for the general."

Needless to say, the telescope was made by Li Huan by skilled craftsmen who polished it with colored glaze, and there were only a few pieces, one of which was given to Wang Yangming by Li Huan.

The ground trembled slightly. On the Ming army's position, many soldiers could vaguely see the torrent of cavalry in front of them. Seeing the torrent of cavalry roaring like a landslide, all the soldiers tensed up.

At this moment, Wang Yangming's voice suddenly sounded: "Cannon, light it!"

The heralds with loud voices then shouted to convey Wang Yangming's order.

In an instant, the fuses of the cannons were ignited, and within a few breaths, the cannons roared, and the thunderous roar lingered in my ears in an instant.

The gunpowder smoke filled the entire artillery position immediately, and the thick smoke filled the air, but these artillerymen desperately filled the gunpowder and projectiles and fired again.

Hundreds of cannons fired suddenly, and the momentum was shocking. At this time, the Tatar cavalry had rushed to a distance of more than a hundred feet in front of the position. This distance can be said to be quite close to the Ming army, that is, dozens of breaths. With kung fu, he was able to enter the Ming army.

Many Tatars showed excitement and ferocity in their eyes.

But at the next moment, there was a thunder-like explosion in the Ming army, and one after another flames flashed, and bullets whizzed towards them one after another.

Hundreds of projectiles slammed into the Tatar army like a god of death, and there was a shrill scream.

It can be said that except for a very few bullets, almost all the bullets took the lives of more than one or two Tatars like the god of death.

Under the first wave of shelling, hundreds of projectiles plowed hundreds of bloody ravines among the Tatar cavalry, and more than [-] Tatar soldiers were directly killed or injured.

It was just this blow that stunned the Tatars by the fierce and dense artillery power.

Have they ever experienced such a ferocious and terrifying shelling? You must know that even if you have seen the power of Ming army firearms, like cannon bombardment, the Ming army mostly bombarded with dozens or dozens of cannons. As long as they survive one or two rounds of shelling, they can rush forward.

But hundreds of cannons gathered together and bombarded like this, they really have never seen this scale and momentum.

Although most of the hundreds of cannons are small and medium-sized cannons, their power can only be said to be average, but there are too many of them. In addition, they were prepared by Wang Yangming in advance. With a blow to the head, he was immediately blown out of his wits.

Among the Tatar central army, although Ma Guli, Alborot and others did not rush to the forefront, they were also among the central army, and they were actually within a few miles of the Ming army's position.

Seeing that they were about to rush to the Ming army's position and destroy the Ming army's firearms, Ma Guli and Alberrot were full of expectations.

However, as the roar came, both Ma Guli and Alborod's expressions changed.

Even though they couldn't see what was going on ahead, they could still hear the thundering shelling sound clearly. It wasn't the roar of one or two or dozens of cannons, at least hundreds of cannons were needed. .

Thinking of what Chen Shan said earlier, Wang Yangming collected almost all the artillery in the army, there were hundreds of them.

At that time, Ma Guli felt that these artillery pieces were a big threat, so he thought to take advantage of the advantage of the cavalry to launch a surprise attack while the Ming army was unprepared during the march, and destroy these artillery pieces in one fell swoop.

Normally, Ma Guli's choice is not wrong, it can even be said that there is nothing wrong with it, but the mistake is that Ma Guli's choice is within Wang Yangming's expectation, and Wang Yangming is even here specially waiting for their arrival.

Ma Guli was valued by Dayan Khan, so he was naturally not a fool, so he immediately reacted and said solemnly: "No, we fell for it."

At this time, Alberrot was already frightened by the continuous sound of artillery, and said to Ma Guli with a bewildered look: "Ma Guli, quickly think of a way, what should we do, what should we do! "

After a wave of shelling, the artillery naturally needs to be refilled with gunpowder projectiles, so after a short roar, what I can hear in my bones are the screams and wailing from the Golden Horde army in front.

A stern look flashed in his eyes, and Ma Guli raised the scimitar high in his hand and roared: "Send me an order, charge me, and destroy the artillery of the Ming army no matter what."

At this moment, Maguli has seen the horrible damage caused by hundreds of artillery salvos to the cavalry. Maguli is also a fierce and decisive person. The Yujin Horde Khan Army must also destroy the artillery of the Ming Army.

The Golden Horde army really deserved to be the elite of the Tatars. The shelling just now was like a landslide and the ground cracked. If it were an ordinary cavalry team, it might have collapsed.

But the Golden Horde Army did not collapse. Instead, under Ma Guli's order, they continued to charge towards the Ming army one by one like desperadoes.

In the artillery position, Wang Yangming said to a general: "This governor will go to the front to supervise the battle. You stay here and make sure that the shelling continues."

The tragic situation of the Tatar cavalry being shot by artillery salvos was seen by many people. The general accepted Wang Yangming's order immediately and said: "Don't worry about the governor, he will personally sit in the town at the end. If anyone dares to do nothing to help I blasted those Tartars to death, and the last general chopped off his head."

Wang Yangming's figure appeared in the area where the firecrackers were tens of feet away.

Teams of soldiers are holding firecrackers and aiming at the front, waiting for the Tatar cavalry to enter the shooting range.

Regarding the use of firearms, the Ming army has already had a complete set of methods of use for hundreds of years. In fact, segmented firearms are not new in the Ming army, and it can even be said to be the most basic method of use.

At this moment, thousands of firecrackers are divided into several columns, arranged neatly, and the black firecrackers are aimed at the front, giving people a great pressure.

The sound of rumbling shelling sounded again, and with the smoke filled, hundreds of projectiles flew out again. Even though the Tatars were prepared this time, the power of the shelling of hundreds of artillery pieces was still earth-shattering.

Although the Tatar casualties this time were much less than the first time, there were still nearly a thousand casualties.

At this moment, the Tatar cavalry who rushed to the front and survived had already approached the Ming army's position.

There are obstacles such as horses in front of the position, which can delay the impact speed of the Tatar cavalry to a certain extent.

Of course, counting on these obstacles is at best causing some minor troubles to the Tatar cavalry. It is simply unrealistic to expect these things to prevent the Tatars from charging.

At this time, the gunfire soldiers at the forefront could even clearly see the Tatars tens of feet away. The cavalry charge was the most intimidating. Many gunfire soldiers couldn't help showing nervousness and fear when they saw the roaring Tatars. color.

If it weren't for the generals of the Ming army shuttled back and forth roaring to stabilize the morale of the army, I am afraid that some people could not bear the pressure and fired the firecrackers.

Wang Yangming was standing at the most eye-catching place on the side, and all the firecrackers could clearly see Wang Yangming's figure as long as they raised their eyes.

It has to be said that Wang Yangming's figure was like a sea needle that fixed the minds of thousands of people, for these soldiers.

Their own coach is not afraid of death and stands here with them to face the Tatars. What else is there to be afraid of, the big deal is just meaning.

The Ming army has always had no shortage of brave men, a raging soldier, a raging general, it can be said that the generals are brave, this is not false at all.

Wang Yangming's just one battle completely stabilized the courage of the army, and even many soldiers still had high-spirited fighting spirit in their eyes.

As the Tatar cavalry got closer, thirty feet, twenty feet...

At this moment, there was a shout, and with Wang Yangming's order, the firecrackers who had already been prepared immediately fired their firearms.

Accompanied by the roar, under the first salvo of nearly a thousand firecrackers, the lethality of the hail of bullets was astonishing.

Facing the salvo of nearly a thousand firecrackers, especially at such a short distance, almost instantly, the hundreds of cavalry who rushed forward screamed and fell off their horses as if they had hit an invisible iron wall.

Accompanied by the roar of the generals of the Ming army, the first row of firecrackers who had finished shooting immediately rushed to the two wings and entered the rear of the queue to start filling gunpowder projectiles.

"put!"

There was another volley, the gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the choking gunpowder smoke tangled the nostrils, but the pungent smell of blood could not be concealed.

Hundreds of cavalry fell [-] or [-] feet away from the musketeers again. The distance of several tens of feet seemed to be a moat that the Tatars could not cross.

At this time, Ma Guli, who had already rushed to the front, saw this scene, his eyes turned red, and he roared again and again to drive the soldiers to attack.

"Damn it, even if you die, you will destroy the firearms of the Ming army."

The sound of bombing came, and in the Ming army's position, a cannon suddenly exploded, and a dozen soldiers fell to the ground screaming.

The soldiers who were busy filling gunpowder projectiles not far away were taken aback when they saw this scene, but soon continued to fill gunpowder without being affected.

The cannon is just blasted, and the use of firearms is full of dangers. Whether it is the wear of the firearms or the amount of gunpowder filled, various accidents may occur.

With hundreds of artillery salvos firing like this, it is quite normal for one or two artillery pieces to explode. Fortunately, Wang Yangming was prepared for this in advance, and kept a safe distance from each artillery piece, even the storage of gunpowder. There is also a certain distance from the artillery. I would rather the soldiers run a few more steps to avoid all accidents as much as possible.

Seeing this situation, the general who was sitting in the artillery position immediately roared to appease the soldiers, and at the same time urged all the soldiers to continue shelling the Tatars.

Another salvo of artillery fire took the lives of hundreds of Tatar soldiers again.

At the same time, three or four ranks of soldiers had already been replaced by the gunfire soldiers, and several salvos fired down abruptly, making the Tatars stop tens of feet away, unable to move forward.

[Well, it's the end of the month, big brothers, do you have a monthly pass, if you have one, give it a shot. 】
