Chapter 283 I was tricked by my own people

No matter how brave the Tatars are, they can't withstand the hail of bullets fired by nearly a thousand firecrackers. This level of hail of bullets, let alone a brave man, is afraid that even the top players in the martial arts will be beaten into a sieve. .

If we say that at the beginning, seeing the Tatar cavalry roaring like a torrent dozens of feet away, these firecrackers who almost had no defense were naturally extremely panicked.

That is to say, Wang Yangming stood there motionless to calm the minds of these people, otherwise the soldiers would definitely panic and even run away.

Not enough. After several rounds of shooting, these gunfire soldiers watched the Tatars on the opposite side fall down one by one, and few of them were able to rush forward.

Even if a few cavalrymen rushed forward occasionally, they were frightened one by one, or were brought forward by the mounts under them by virtue of inertia, and then they were all shot and killed on the spot.

Seeing such a situation, the courage of the firecrackers naturally surged at this moment.

Although they have always known that the firecrackers in their hands are very powerful, it is really very rare for thousands of firecrackers to be used intensively like this.

That is to say, Wang Yangming searched almost all the firecrackers in the entire army to collect so many firecrackers that can be used. Otherwise, even if he would use firecrackers on weekdays, most of them would be gathered dozens or hundreds of firecrackers. That's all.

Although it is astonishing to shoot dozens of guns together, it is absolutely impossible to achieve such a terrifying effect at this time.

Seeing the nearly invincible Golden Horde Khan army all fall in front, the group of firecrackers gradually entered the state, and even the speed of rotation was significantly accelerated.

As the saying goes, one ebbs and another, if the firecrackers create chaos before the battle, it will definitely give the Tatar cavalry a chance to enter the army.

Once the cavalry gets close, the advantage of firearms will naturally disappear, and it will inevitably be a different scene.

But it was obviously different at this moment. No matter how brave these brave Tatar cavalry charged, it was difficult to overcome that natural moat.

In addition, the gunpowder filling speed of the rear artillery has always been very stable, so a wave of shelling will erupt from time to time.

Under the continuous bombardment of artillery and firecrackers, it was only a cup of tea, and most of the tens of thousands of Golden Horde troops had already fallen.

Even so, the remaining thousands of Golden Horde troops are still adhering to the orders of Ma Guli and Alborot, and they are not afraid of death.

Under normal circumstances, if a large army loses [-]% or [-]% in battle, it may be defeated, but the Golden Horde Army is also worthy of being the real elite of the Tatars. Even if most of the casualties are still not showing signs of collapse.

Even though Wang Yangming, who was standing in front of the army, looked at the fallen Tatar corpses and the soldiers of the Golden Horde who charged as usual, he couldn't help showing a bit of surprise and fear in his eyes.

Needless to say, what Wang Yangming marveled at was the bravery and fearlessness of the Golden Horde Khan army, and he was also afraid of this.

Dayan Khan has a full [-] Golden Horde army under his command, and these [-] Golden Horde troops that gather the essence of Tatar are the capital of Dayan Khan's rule of the entire Tatar.

Wang Yangming had always heard about the prestige of the Golden Horde Army, but he did not expect to see the power of the Golden Horde Army under such circumstances.

Although seeing the soldiers of the Golden Horde Khan army bravely charging into the battle one by one, Wang Yangming showed some murderous intentions towards the remaining Golden Horde Khan army.

If such elites can be wiped out, it is better to destroy them early, otherwise, even if they can hit the Tatars hard this time, as long as there are these Golden Horde troops, they will not be able to shake Dayan Khan domination of the grasslands.

In a few years, the Tatars will be able to regain their vitality and go south to threaten the Central Plains again.

Among the Tatar army, at this time Alboroth and others could clearly see that the soldiers and horses under his command were shot to death by the firearms of the Ming army in front of the army formation, separated by more than ten feet, but as if they were sent to death. Natural moats are generally insurmountable.

All of a sudden, Alborote yelled at Maguli: "Maguli, you can't go down any further. If you charge like this again, I'm afraid all the Golden Horde troops will go in."

Thinking that if they lost the tens of thousands of Golden Horde troops, his father Khan would definitely explode into a thunderstorm, and even if he could save his life, he would be severely punished.

Alboroth shuddered uncontrollably, and even yelled at Muguli: "Order to withdraw the troops quickly, withdraw the troops quickly!"

Ma Guli looked at the scene ahead with red eyes.

In terms of the pressure, Ma Guli was definitely under much greater pressure than Alboroth, after all, he was the commander in chief of the first army.

Dayan Khan handed over so many elites to him, but he ended up burying such an elite team. After returning, Dayan Khan might have his head chopped off.

However, under such pressure, Ma Guli still tried his best to keep himself calm, staring at the Ming army formation in front of him.

All of a sudden, there were several riots in the Ming army formation, and it was astonishing that several guns exploded.

Among the thousands of firecrackers, it is quite normal for some firecrackers to explode, but under normal circumstances, if the firecrackers are used repeatedly, the chance of exploding the chamber will naturally increase.

Obviously, the sudden increase in the number of firecrackers that exploded in the army formation was naturally due to the repeated firing of many firecrackers.

It is conceivable that if the continuous shooting continues, the chances of bombing will continue to increase.

Seeing this scene, Ma Guli suddenly said to Alboroth: "His Royal Highness, hold on a little longer. Once the firearms of the Ming army explode on a large scale, those soldiers will definitely collapse."

Alborote yelled at Muguli: "So what, people are almost dead, even if all the firearms of the Ming army are blown up by then, so what?"

Hearing the words, Ma Guli couldn't help being stunned, his face showed a bit of astonishment, his face changed suddenly, only now did Ma Guli realize that it was only a short cup of tea time, tens of thousands The elite Golden Horde Army has only about 4000 people left.

Seeing the expression reaction in his eyes, Alboroth sneered and said: "If you don't withdraw, I'm afraid the whole army will really be wiped out, and Father Khan will never spare you by then."

As he said that, Alberrod looked at Ma Guli and said: "Although retreating at this time will not escape the punishment of Father Khan, at least the entire army was not wiped out, and the Ming army's firearms are indeed sharp. Let me explain to you from the side. , to keep you alive."

Seeing the expression of hesitation and hesitation on Maguli's face, Alborod couldn't help but angrily said: "What is there to hesitate, if you don't retreat, then I can only forcefully order the withdrawal of the troops, and you will bear it by yourself Father Khan's wrath."

Although it is said that the command of the army is in the hands of Ma Guli, if Alboroth gives orders across Maguli, then these Golden Horde troops will only obey the orders of Alboroth, who represents Dayan Khan.

Hearing Alboroth's threat, he glanced at the Ming army's position unwillingly. He had a premonition that if he persisted, there would definitely be problems with the Ming army's firearms. At that time, he might not have no hope of rushing into the Ming army. In the barracks.

Just looking at the elite soldiers of the Golden Horde Army falling down one after another, he has to face the reality that if his premonition is wrong, all the Golden Horde Army will join them. He will die if he does not flee.

Especially since Alberrod has expressed his intention to forcibly take over the army, no matter what he thinks, there is only one choice left for him, and that is to withdraw the army immediately.

Taking a deep breath, he roared in his numbness, "Withdraw the troops!"

As Ma Guli's order was conveyed, the Golden Horde Khan Army, who had been attacking the Ming army's positions bravely and fearlessly, suddenly stopped their charge and began to turn around and flee in the distance.

Another cannon shot down, immediately taking the lives of hundreds of unlucky people.

After all, with the death of a large number of Tatar cavalry at this moment, coupled with the artillery bombardment again and again, these surviving Tatar cavalry also have some experience in dealing with artillery bombardment.

At the beginning, the Tatars maintained a dense formation to attack, and naturally they could kill many soldiers with one shot.

But at this moment, the Tatar cavalry had learned to be smart and spread out far away. In this way, the density was suddenly reduced many times, and the killing effect of the artillery was naturally greatly reduced.

In front of the army formation, a group of firecrackers who were standing in front of the battle were stunned for a moment when they saw the Tatar cavalry who were continuously attacking their positions, turned around and ran away suddenly, and then they reacted and couldn't help shouting excitedly.

With the firecrackers in their hands, they repelled the attack of the most elite Golden Horde army of Tatars.

They had heard the name of the Golden Horde Army for a long time, so no one thought about being able to repel the Golden Horde Army. They only thought that Wang Yangming summoned them just to let them play a few rounds of firecrackers and cause some trouble for the Tatars.

No one thought that they alone would repel the Tatar cavalry.

Qi Zhen and other generals all looked shocked at the moment, apparently also shocked by the power of the firearms.

Wang Yangming looked quite calm, but there was a dark color in the depths of his eyes, and he secretly sighed in his heart: "It is really like what Li Huan said, only when artillery and firecrackers are used together can they show their true strength. Power."

If you really want to talk about it, Wang Yangming concentrated all the firearms this time because he was not influenced by Li Huan.

At this time, Qi Zhen tremblingly said to Wang Yangming with a face full of surprise: "Governor, we have won, and even the Golden Horde army of the Tatars has been repelled. If we have more and more sophisticated firearms, It’s just a Tatar, why not be afraid of it.”

Wang Yangming stroked his beard and nodded slightly: "Yes, I think that at the beginning of the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong used firearms to drive out the Tartars and rebuild China, but our descendants gradually fell short of military affairs, and even many The quality of artillery and firecrackers is much worse."

Hearing Wang Yangming's emotion, Qi Zhen's eyes widened when he thought of those explosive cannons and firecrackers just now, and he shouted angrily: "The people from the Ministry of Industry should be killed, and the military and powerful weapons dare to cut corners, thanks to the Tatars. People are scared, if the opponent continues to rush forward, there will be more artillery and firecrackers, and there is no telling when the army will collapse because of these artillery and firecrackers."

This is not a false talk, it's normal when you think about it, if someone uses this weapon that may explode at any time, the morale of the army will not be disturbed.

Wang Yangming took a deep breath and said, "The governor will report this matter to the Son of Heaven."

Speaking of which, Wang Yangming got on his horse and laughed loudly: "General Qi, may you lead your army to chase and kill these Tatars with me!"

Qi Zhen was shocked when he heard the words, and said: "Okay, the last general will compete with the governor to see who kills more Tatars this time."

Immediately, thousands of cavalry roared out, and under the leadership of Wang Yangming, Qi Zhen and others, they followed Ma Guli, Alborot and others who had retreated hastily.

Sanyang Town

The retreating Tatar army has now retreated to Sanyang Town, which is about 100 miles away from Wuning Fort.

For a distance of more than 100 miles, if the Tatars, who are almost all cavalry, retreat desperately, then they can reach Fort Wuning in one day.

However, under the way of hurrying, the loss of war horses is also extremely astonishing.

The most important thing is that if they retreat with all their strength at all costs, they will be exhausted by then, and won't this create opportunities for the Ming army who have been chasing them!

Because of this, Dayan Khan and other high-ranking Tatars knew that they could withdraw to the grassland in a short time, but none of them chose this extreme method with hidden hidden dangers. retreat slowly.

The large group of cavalry moved forward slowly, but the speed was not slow. After all, no matter how slow the cavalry was, it was not comparable to the infantry.

At this time, Dayan Khan and several confidantes were listening to the news brought by the sentry on a huge carriage.

"What did you say, the troops of Yang Yiqing and Cao Xiong are already approaching Fort Wuning, and the Ayan tribe stationed in Fort Wuning sent someone to ask for help?"

Dayan Khan frowned and stared at the sentry in front of him.

The sentry nodded and said: "Back to Dahan, the envoy sent by General Ayan is outside."

Dayan Khan waved his hand and said, "Bring it in."

Soon one of them got into the carriage, bowed respectfully to Dayan Khan, and then said to Dayan Khan, "Great Khan, my general feels that there is a shortage of manpower, and I am afraid that the troops of Yang Yiqing and Cao Xiong will occupy Wuning Fort , so I ordered the younger one to come and ask the Great Khan to send reinforcements."

Dayan Khan glanced at the man, snorted coldly and said, "Oirat, Mandula and the others haven't arrived at Fort Wuning yet?"

According to Dayan Khan's previous instructions, Oirat and Mandula set off first, because Dayan Khan learned that Yang Yiqing and Cao Xiong's tens of thousands of Ming troops were rushing to Wuning Fort, and it was very difficult to block them. The posture of retreating.

In order to prevent the back road from being cut off, Dayan Khan sent two troops, Oirat and Mandula, early on. It is said that the two troops should have arrived at Fort Wuning by now.

But looking at the meaning of the envoys from the Ayan tribe, it seems that the Oirat and Mandula troops never arrived at Fort Wuning.

Sure enough, the envoy was stunned for a moment, his face was full of bewilderment, he shook his head and said: "The little one came all the way, but there is no trace of Oirat and Mandula at all."

In the carriage, several people immediately looked at each other when they heard the words, and some people's expressions changed, especially Han Yu and Lu Guang looked at each other, as if they wanted to understand something.

Even Dayan Khan's complexion suddenly became extremely gloomy at this moment, and he slapped the table in front of him fiercely with his big hand, and suddenly a cup of tea soaked the blanket beside him.

"Okay, okay, Mandula, Oirat, you are so brave, Ben Khan shouldn't have entrusted you with such a heavy responsibility."

Ada Tumeng and several Tatar generals were shocked when they heard the words: "Khan, do you mean that Mandula and Oirat rebelled?"

With a cold snort, Dayan Khan sneered and said: "Mandula, Oirat and the others usually obey the orders of Ben Khan, but Ben Khan thinks that they are the majority of our Tatars, and he can't bear to face each other with swords. Li also has a lot of praise for him, never thought that Mandula and Oirat would dare to disrespect the orders of the Khan."

When a general heard this, he said angrily: "You should be killed, Khan. When we return to the grassland, please allow the last general to lead the army to cut off the heads of Oirat and Mandu."

Taking a deep breath, Dayan Khan was obviously caught off guard by the news that Oirat and Mandula hadn't rushed to Fort Wuning.

Originally, according to his arrangement, there were more than 2 troops from Oirat and Mandula, plus thousands of troops from the Ayan tribe sitting in Fort Wuning, which added up to more than [-] soldiers and horses. Cao Xiong has a large number of troops, and it is impossible to take Wuning Fort in a short time.

It can be said that there will be no worries in the future, but Dayan Khan never dreamed that Oirat and Mandula did not rush to Fort Wuning to protect their retreat according to his order. in a dire situation.

Everyone present was not stupid, and naturally they all realized this.

Being in a high position naturally understands the importance of retreat, so at this moment, one by one explained and looked towards Dayan Khan with a solemn expression.

Ada Tumeng said to Dayan Khan: "Great Khan, the Ayan tribe may not be able to support us until we rush to Wuning Fort. Just in case, the last general will lead a team to Wuning Fort to join the Ayan tribe. How about keeping the retreat?"

Dayan Khan's face was gloomy at this time, and the disobedience of Oirat and Mandula disrupted his arrangement at once.

At this moment, Dayan Khan raised his head and glanced at Ada Tumeng after hearing the words, then nodded to Adatumeng after pondering for a while and said, "This is the only plan for the present."

While speaking, Dayan Khan looked at Ada Tumeng and said: "Ada Tumeng, you will lead [-] cavalry, one person and two cavalry, and rush to Wuning Castle as fast as possible. As long as you stick to it for two days, this Khan will He will lead the army to arrive."

[It's the end of the month, let's see if there is a monthly pass, everyone give a monthly pass. 】
