Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 400 Battle of Albrak (Part )
The road in the Orbulak Valley is winding, and the Kazakh position is on a slope three miles inside the valley, leaving ample space for the Guards to arrange their troops. It's not that Yangir Khan doesn't know how to fight, but he does it deliberately. The Huluzui terrain, which is wide on the outside and narrow on the inside, allows the guards to be more crowded. Shooting from the slopes also has the advantage of being commanding. In the view of the Great Khan, such terrain can make the attackers who are crowded together and attacking from behind become a living target for the defenders. There is nothing to do but wait patiently for the enemy.

"Dong~dong~dong~"

To the ears of David's warriors, the drums of marching sound swift and swift, not as a reminder of death, but as a hymn of achievement.

"Warriors, follow me and charge forward." Bazi Babu pointed his spear in front of him. Hearing the order, eight hundred light cavalry came forward and rode their horses up the mountain. Although there are earth slopes in the valley, they are not as steep as the mountain peaks. Light cavalry with good riding skills can still control their horses to climb the slopes. These eight hundred horsemen are all highly skilled equestrians in the Guards. Their mission is to gallop to the top of the slope at lightning speed and quickly win victory for the entire army at the minimum cost.

"Da~da~da~"

The sound of horses' hooves sounds urgent, and the eight hundred warriors driving the horses throw up dust, as if they are coming on clouds.

On the slope, next to each musketeer were three muskets loaded with ammunition. Kazakh Baturu Justen stood motionless in the wind with his command flag in his hand. The military order in his mouth was sonorous and powerful, "My flag does not move. Anyone who is good at firing a shot will be killed!"

"咴聿聿", a war horse's hoof stepped into the pit and was broken, and it squatted down in pain, throwing the knight off the horse; "咴聿聿", another horse was pulled down by the stumbling rope; rejection of carbine, iron caltrops, and stones , the rolling wood defenders used various methods in an endless stream, and soldiers continued to fall down with men and horses, but they still could not stop David's cavalry.

"Ta~ta~ta~" They galloped closer and closer, approaching the top of the slope, only to find that there was a row of long and tall wooden fences blocking the way. The hateful enemy had already designed it. The fences were not too high, but they were high enough that war horses could not jump over them. of.

"Uu~uh~uh~"

The cavalry in the front row reined in their horses, jumped down, and drew their swords to cut down the fence. They were usually equipped with two sabers and a machete specially designed to cut down trees and gun heads, but how could a thick fence be cut down so quickly? The cavalry in the front were cutting down the fence bravely, while the cavalry in the back were still rushing upward, becoming more and more crowded.

The opportunity comes!

Eusten waved the command flag fiercely, and the well-trained heads of hundreds, forties, and ten husbands at all levels saw the signal and simultaneously ordered their subordinates to fire their guns and fire volleys.

"Bah~bah~bah~"

In just one salvo, 650 bullets were fired, knocking over more than 200 Guardsmen cavalry in the dense space.

"No, let the warriors retreat quickly." Suletan on the high platform hurriedly ordered. These highly skilled equestrians are all his hard work and lifeblood, but he cannot bear to waste them easily.

"Woo~wu~wu~"

When the retreat horn sounded, the Guards cavalry turned their horses back and gave their backs to the enemy. However, Eusten did not order shooting, but ordered his men to reload ammunition as soon as possible.

"Hmph! But there are only six to seven hundred gunmen, how can they stop the rapid advance of my army?" Sultan sneered. Since time travel, he has experienced numerous battles involving mountains of corpses and seas of blood, which has already accumulated a wealth of battlefield experience. He can estimate the approximate number of enemies by hearing the sound of gunshots, and is determined to use his own force to overwhelm the enemy. gunman.

"Command the infantry to advance", Lotus sweated and roared like a lion.

Du Qianhu Sebuteng led 3,000 infantrymen and advanced slowly with swords and shields in hand.

"Kill~kill~kill~" He shouted "kill" in three steps, shaking the ground.

"Finally," Eusten muttered. Just now, he could chase the opponent's cavalry and shoot another round but failed. He just wanted the opponent to misunderstand that he only had six or seven hundred muskets. In fact, although he only had 650 musketeers, each of them had three muskets and could fire three volleys. "Kill", Sebuteng howled loudly, holding a card in his left hand and brandishing a knife in his right hand, and moved forward with his waist bent.

Seeing Du Qianhu charging forward, the morale of all his subordinates was greatly boosted, and they speeded up the slope. The terrain of Huluzui made the guards at the front extremely dense, and their upward attack also affected the speed of their charge.

"Shoot", Yusten waved the flag, and the Kazakh musketeers fired a salvo. Amidst the dull "bang bang" sound, the first round of volleys killed more than two hundred guardsmen.

"Keep moving forward, don't give the enemy time to reload ammunition," Sultan ordered cruelly. Loading ammunition in this era is very time-consuming. We have just tried it out. There are only six to seven hundred muskets on the mountain. We must take advantage of the enemy's opportunity to load ammunition and attack them.

"Woo~wu~wu~"

The bugle sounded loudly, and another group of guards came up, this time more densely packed than last time. Seeing that the enemy had fired a round, the veterans of the guards thought that the opportunity to make a meritorious deed had arrived, and they all pushed forward regardless of their own safety. David built his country with military force, and the rewards for military achievements were very generous.

"shoot!"

The Kazakh army's second salvo started. Not only the musketeers, but also Yangir Khan's guards took out their bows and arrows and fired. The unexpected shooting caused greater casualties to the guards, and a full 400 people fell to the ground.

"Damn it! The archers came forward to cover and continue the attack." Sultan clenched his fists. He did not expect that the enemy could still fire a round of volleys, and he attacked again unwillingly.

"Whoosh~whoosh~whoosh~" The archers of the Guardsmen began to shoot, and arrows rained down. However, the Kazakh army hid in the trenches and was covered by shields, so the casualties were not large.

"Warriors, the Great Khan is watching us, let the Kazakhs see the bravery of our Oirat," Sebuten loudly encouraged morale. Under his supervision, the Guardsmen attacked up the slope again.

"shoot!"

The Kazakh army fired a third volley, and more than 300 guardsmen fell to the ground. In just three volleys, thousands of the Guards fell, and Sebuteng had to retreat.

"Instructing Hadir and Hawul to attack the enemy from both sides," Yangir Khan mobilized the ambush troops on the hills on both sides. He knew that his musketeer battalion needed to reload ammunition after firing three rounds of volleys. It would be best if the ambush troops on both sides could defeat the enemy. If not, it could at least disrupt the enemy's progress and buy his own musketeers time to reload ammunition. .

"Kill~kill~kill~" Hadir and Khawul each led thousands of people to fight out from both sides. They were willing to risk their lives for Kazakh.

Seeing that the enemy was indeed ambushing, Sultan's expression flashed with ridicule. He had already ordered En, Batu, and Bayar each to lead two thousand troops to guard on both sides to guard against the ambush, and immediately ordered his two generals to stop the attack. The Kazakhs and the Guards fought fiercely on both sides. They did not gain advantage from the enemy's overwhelming numbers, but they disrupted the progress of the Guards and gave their own musketeers time to reload ammunition.

Sultan ordered the attack to continue. This time the attacker was the strong general of the Guards and deputy Wanhu Tegusi Chaoketu. Tegus beat Ketu extremely fiercely, charging up one team after another. The Kazakhs on the slope finally stopped after firing two more volleys.

Seeing that the enemy was approaching and he had no time to reload ammunition, Yangir Khan pulled out the Khan knife and shouted to his men: "Warriors, for the sake of Kazakhstan, follow me and kill the enemy bravely." Wherever the sword reached, the enemies were reduced to pieces. The guards and musketeers also took up arms and fought bravely with their efforts.

"Okay! We finally got it up. We are outnumbered. As long as we get up there and get entangled together, victory will definitely belong to Oirat," Suletan laughed excitedly. But he soon stopped laughing. The sentry came to report that a Kazakh reinforcement force of about 20,000 people had arrived from the south.
