Desert Eagle Suletan Khan

Chapter 530 Lotus sweat and Pingyang fight against the tiger (Part )
The day agreed for the decisive battle has arrived, the sun rises slowly, and the two torrents of thirty miles, twenty miles, ten miles, and five miles are getting closer and closer.

"Sing", shouted Yangir Khan.

"The golden sun in heaven, the golden grains in the steppes, the heroic legends, it is my land. In the gray-haired ancient times, our glory, pride and strength were us Kazakhs. Kazakhstan, my country! As Your flowers, I will grow. Our songs are flying." Horses and songs are the wings of Kazakhstan. Almost every Kazakh is a good singer and has a loud voice that makes the Koksarai grassland tremble.

Sultan's expression was solemn, and the enemy's morale was high, which was by no means a good sign. No, we cannot let the enemy compete. "Sing, hold them down," he howled.

"A warrior caught with a fishing rod shows a majestic and heroic posture. The mighty Great Khan is late in the battle. The seven treasured sword in his hand can be obtained by hundreds of casts. Going to the battlefield with a sword is better than when you were newlywed. There are many heroes in Mongolia, and the horses look bright at dawn. There is no such thing as a coward, and he can march thousands of miles with great ambitions. His triumphant songs shake the heaven and the earth, and the strong wind rolls over the horse's hooves. In life, one should achieve meritorious service, and in death, one should follow the drums and flags."

The songs of the Guardsmen also filled the sky. Hearing the enemy singing, the Kazakh army's singing became a little stronger. The two sides are fighting for each other, unwilling to show weakness. They are not fighting physically yet, but they are already fighting in terms of momentum.

Three miles apart, both sides stopped and began to form formations.

Both sides were once part of Mongolia, and their cavalry tactics are similar. They basically follow the wide front, large depth, and large fish scale formation passed down by their ancestors: the formation consists of a forward, an avant-garde, a left, center, and right corps, and a rear guard. The road troops kept a large distance between them. The difference is that the distance is much smaller than that of our ancestors. During the Genghis Khan period, the distance from the left road to the middle road required cavalry to ride for a day; now, the distance from the left road to the middle road is only three miles. However, the entire military formation still looks like a large fish scale with a wide front and a large depth.

This formation is good for offense but not good for defense. Therefore, the Mongols' tactics emphasize the mobile warfare method of "using their own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses, advancing when they see advantages, and retreating when disadvantages arise." Genghis Khan's "Zhasa" simply stipulates: "Always attack." The cavalry is an offensive unit. Only by attacking can the power of the cavalry be fully utilized. Different methods of attack can be implemented according to different situations. Attack is the best defense. This world conqueror could be said to have mastered the spirit of cavalry. He fought more than fifty major battles in his life, only two of which were defensive. Even defense is not purely passive defense, but there is offense in defense.

The forward of the Kazakh army is Jamal, the leader of the Suwan tribe, the forward is the leader of the Alban tribe, Erken, the middle route army is Yangir Khan himself and the Musketeer Battalion Baturu Yusten, and the rearguard is the leader of the Shaprasiti tribe. Mendel, deployed a total of 40,000 people in the center; the left army was composed of 10,000 people commanded by Bekkhawul of Turkestan City; the right army was composed of Sultan Momin and Korayil of the Kipchak Department. Ten thousand men under the command of Baturu Kessel.

Yang Gilhan is a traditional man who insists on maintaining the "central breakthrough" tactics left by his ancestors, focusing on the two wings and focusing on the center. The tiger rips out the heart and kills with one punch, which is exactly the style of the Turan Tiger.

In fact, the Great Khan of Lotus was also a traditional person, and the formation he laid out was also light on the wings and heavy on the center. The difference is that he did not plan to "break through the center", but planned to imitate Genghis Khan's tactics against Jamuka in the Battle of Thirteen Wings, launching an attack from both wings and taking a defensive position in the center. However, Suletan, who was well aware of the fear of the King of Turan, did not dare to place most of his troops on the wings like Genghis Khan and only put a few people in the center. Instead, 17,000 troops and horses were placed on the left and right wings, and 26,000 troops and horses were placed in the center.

His tactic was to fight Yangir Khan in the center, use the advantages of the two wings to first make a breakthrough on both wings, and then move back to the center to outflank the enemy. In order to make up for the lack of troops in the center, the war god of Oirat did not hesitate to put himself in danger. He planted the Khan flag in the center and stayed in the center to boost morale. The key to victory in this battle lies in whether the two wings can quickly defeat the Kazakh army. If the two wings can win quickly, they can outflank the enemy and reduce the pressure on the center; otherwise, they will put themselves and the center army under their command in danger. In order to quickly open up the situation on both wings, he ordered the fierce generals Mandu Latu and Erqin Batur to lead 17,000 troops as the left army; Saihan and Aishan led 17,000 troops as the right army; Luo Bu Zang'er Linqin was the vanguard, Enhe Batu was the vanguard, Aldar and Shuoqi were the rearguard, and he and Teguschaoketu, Bazibabu, Jambi, Sebuteng, Bayar, Zhuo Qiba, Jimuba, Mamadale Ubas, Talhun, and Okchotbu will form the center army.

The forwards of both sides began to approach. Jamal, the leader of the Suwan tribe, led 5,000 Kazakh cavalry and slowly approached the 3,000 men of the Guards forward Norbu Zang'er Linqin.

Norbu Zang'e Linqin was the fourth son of Ji Chuhu'er Ubas, the great commander of the Junggar tribe. The three thousand Junggar soldiers under his command were very capable of fighting. Military merit is the most important thing in the Kingdom of David. Not long after the Junggar tribe was newly attached, everyone at the top and bottom wanted to achieve military merit. Luobu Zang'e Linqin clenched the steel knife in his hand, determined to show off to the Great Khan of Lotus, and fight for himself, his family, and the Junggar tribe. Although the enemy's forward troops were far more powerful than his own, he still ordered his men to form an offensive formation: the sharp arrow formation, determined to use himself as an arrow to shoot through the enemy's heart with one arrow.

Jamal sneered, this enemy general was so arrogant that he dared to rush to the front. His five thousand subordinates were composed of six tribes: Naiman, Qincha, Hongjila, Kelie, Alhun (Northern Xiongnu), and Wak. The Alhun people were especially good at shooting. Immediately, more than a hundred Alhun eagle shooters were found in front of the formation. When the two armies fought, they would shoot the enemy generals.

Getting closer and closer, close enough to hear the snorting of the enemy's horses. At this moment, dark clouds floated in the sky, raining down bullets and exploding in the Kazakh army. The cunning Sultan ordered cannons to be pulled by camels and fired at the enemy. The Kazakh artillery began to return fire, but the number of artillery they had was completely unable to compare with that of the Guards, and they were at a disadvantage in the artillery battle.

Even so, the cavalry formations were sparse and the artillery did not cause much damage to the Kazakhs, but it succeeded in confusing their minds.

Before the Arhun people's eagle shooter had time to react, Luobu Zang'e Linqin, holding a knife in his left hand and a gun in his right hand, had already sped over and killed more than ten people in the blink of an eye. The Junggar warriors aroused their bloody spirit and rushed into the Kazakh formation. The men and horses turned into mad demons, colliding and fighting fiercely. Three thousand people were killed, and five thousand people were thrown into chaos.

"Damn it!" Jamal swung his sledgehammer and rushed towards Luobu Zang'e Linqin. Being chosen by Yang Gilhan as the vanguard, he was naturally brave.

"Bang", the hammer hit the barrel of the gun, and it was so light. Linqin abandoned the gun decisively, making his center of gravity unstable. He took the opportunity to stab Jamal with the knife in his left hand. With just one blow, Jamal was stabbed to the core.
