Chapter 404 Khorchin fled!
Dig the formation!

puncture!

These two sentences were the only ones in the minds of the Ming army's elite cavalry!

Before the war started, Tang Hao had already arranged the tactics!
More than 20,000 elite cavalry of the Ming army were divided into five armies and broke into the enemy formation one after another!

At first, Tang Hao, a military novice, found it difficult to understand Tang Hao's tactics.

After all, his concept and impression of cavalry warfare is still stuck on the war scenes in later movies and TV dramas, where the cavalry of both sides are directly deployed, and then the camera cuts to a long shot and then a close-up, directly showing that the armies and horses begin to charge and collide head-on with each other!
That's what excitement is!

That's what we call delicious!

As a result, after reading military books and leading troops in battles, Tang Hao finally understood that doing so was just to make the war scene look good. In fact, any cavalry general with a normal mind would not be stupid enough to command the cavalry to fight in this way, because it was no different from letting his own soldiers die in vain and letting the enemy win the battle for nothing!
The battlefield area is so small, and if everyone rushes forward at once, it is easy for the soldiers in the front to collide with the enemy and engage in a fierce battle, which ends up blocking the cavalry soldiers behind them. There is also a large group of soldiers behind who cannot move forward and can only watch the show from behind, which is a funny scene!

Moreover, once the warhorse charges to a close distance, it is basically impossible to change direction. The best choice is to keep moving forward, always forward!
Either you break through the enemy's formation or you are killed by the enemy. There is no other possibility!
Of course, the unlucky ones who are knocked off their horses will suffer an even more miserable fate, because they will be trampled into meat paste by the horses of the chaotic army, which is countless times more painful than being hacked to death!
After Tang Hao divided his more than 20,000 cavalrymen into five groups and sent them out simultaneously, it was equivalent to releasing five extremely sharp steel blades!

The purpose is to cut and decompose the enemy cavalry in front in multiple directions!

And the army in the middle was actually the one led by Tang Hao himself!
Cutting through the enemy formation and then continuously piercing through it, strangling and annihilating as many enemy troops as possible, this is the combat mission of the other four elite cavalry!

The combat mission of Tang Hao's elite cavalry was to charge forward and break through the enemy's formation as much as possible.

The Art of War,
It requires generals and soldiers to work together to complete it!
The Mongolian cavalry was not incompetent in fighting, nor was their instinctive skills of archery and horse riding degenerated. Otherwise, when Prince of Yan Zhu Di launched the Jingnan Rebellion, he would not have spent a large sum of money to hire the Three Guards of Doyan to be his thugs. Otherwise, there would not have been so many Mongolian Tartar officers in the Ming army!
The Mongols have essentially lost a sense of cohesion, or in other words, have lost their national cohesion. Sometimes, even if they form an alliance, they are still just pursuing their own interests!
Having lost the legitimate and orthodox Khan, they are like headless flies, and will never fight fearlessly on the battlefield for a powerful official again!

Of course, Dayan Khan Batu Mongke is indeed a descendant of Genghis Khan and a legitimate Mongolian Khan.

Unfortunately, he was too ambitious. It was not enough for him to unify the Mongolian grasslands. He also wanted to eradicate all the great lords of different surnames and restore the sacred ruling status of the Golden Family on the grasslands. As a result, Yibula, Mandulai and others were forced to rebel against him. As a result, Mongolia was plunged into the quagmire of war between the left and right wings, which gave the Ming Dynasty an excellent opportunity to regain Hetao.

Take the Khorchin army in front of us for example. Some captains are leading their men in fighting desperately, while some captains have already begun to flee!
The main general of the Ming army was the unparalleled brave Zhongshan Marquis Tang Hao!

No one was able to defeat him wherever he went, leaving only some broken limbs and a sea of ​​corpses and blood!
The more than 20,000 elite cavalry of the Ming army led by Tang Hao were all the elite among the elite of the Beijing army. Even the horses they rode were excellent Jeju horses from Jeju Island in Korea!
This is an iron-blooded army that followed the Ming Dynasty's Zhongshan Marquis in his campaigns across the country. This is an invincible army that followed Tang Hao in massacring the nomadic tribes in the nine borders!

Under the thousand households, every hundred households and even every flag officer knew what they should do and where they should go on the battlefield after the war began!
This is the absolute tacit understanding cultivated through years of fighting and warfare, based on their absolute trust in their comrades beside them!

Most importantly, they are not afraid of death!
Of course, not everyone can face death with equanimity, that is impossible!

But they are clear about one thing: sometimes on the battlefield, they really need to sacrifice themselves voluntarily, for the sake of the overall situation!

What's the big picture?

The country and people of the Ming Dynasty!
Even if they unfortunately die on the battlefield, their military merits and pensions will not be reduced in the slightest!
Even if the imperial court doesn't give it, Lord Zhongshan will definitely give it!

Therefore, the soldiers of the Beijing Army have no worries and naturally will not be afraid of death!

Chisel the formation! Pierce!

Continue to strangle more enemies!
After the second drilling, it was the third drilling!

After the third drilling, it was the fourth drilling!

After the fourth drilling, there was the fifth drilling...

At this moment, the elite cavalry of the Ming army had been killing like crazy!

Their armor was already damaged, and their swords were bent, but their murderous aura and killing intent had not diminished in the slightest!
After these repeated and continuous attacks, the Khorchin cavalry had been torn into pieces!

Finally, after a long period of confusion and chaos, the Khorchin warriors, led by some cowards, began to flee.

It’s not that we don’t want to fight, nor that we dare not fight.

After all, they are Khorchin warriors, the most powerful and strongest Khorchin warriors in the whole of Mongolia!
But the current situation does not make people see any hope. These Ming troops are like demons, madly reaping everyone's lives!

Once there is no hope, people will become confused and have no opinion of their own!

After the people around them start to flee, the rest of the people can only choose to follow and flee together!
Even if they didn't really want to run away and be shameful cowards!

However, the body's survival instinct is urging them to escape as quickly as possible!

One side is running for life while the other is fighting for life. The goddess of victory will naturally favor the brave!
At this moment, all the Ming army, including Tang Hao, were fighting for their lives!
Tang Hao was already panting heavily at this moment, but he still tried his best to swing the sword in his hand!

I don’t know how many people he killed, so he was exhausted and started to gasp for breath!
He stopped and looked around the battlefield, as there was no one left to kill.

Generals such as An Guo, Ma Yong, Tang Mu, and Chang Kuohai were covered in blood, and they didn't know whether it was their own blood or the enemy's blood.

There were still some bones and meat fragments hanging on Shenchang Kuohai's body, which made people feel sick!
I saw that the battle axe in his hand was replaced by a mace covered with spikes. He swung the mace violently, and the human head turned into a rotten watermelon. The ground was stained with blood in a shocking color.

This guy is definitely the most brutal one among all the generals!

However, the right wing cavalry led by Yibula and Mandulai were in a desperate situation at this moment.

Because Dayan Khan Batu Mengke was leading the left-wing army to encircle and kill them frantically, and it was obvious that he wanted to kill these rebels!

Tang Hao immediately gave the order: "Ma Yong, Tang Mu, Chang Kuohai, lead your troops to follow me to attack the left wing of Mongolia!"

"An Guo's troops prepare muskets and artillery, Deng Boyan's troops are responsible for cleaning up the battlefield and strangling the last Khorchin people!"
