The big fire appeared, and the fire took advantage of the wind. When it encountered crude oil in the air or on the ground, the fire began to spread at a very fast speed, so that the fires in many places were connected together. , There is a strong tendency to spread to the whole city, which is irresistible.

The damage caused by such a fire to the Tatar cavalry in the city is fatal. When there are flames everywhere, the first ones who are frightened are the horses still locked in the stables.

Animals are afraid of fire. When the flames assaults the senses, the docile warhorse couldn’t stand it either, and had to scream fiercely, surging all over, he just jumped out of the stakes and ran on the street. And when they met Tatar fighters head-on, they would not listen to their dissuasion, but they still rushed straight, even if they hit the soldiers in the way to the ground, they still couldn’t stop the momentum of the rush.

The sound of war horses neighing was everywhere. When the fire grew stronger and began to connect into one piece, some soldiers could not avoid being surrounded by the fire. Then one after another extremely miserable screams sounded. The whole city became messy in a moment.

The soldiers on the gate tower are relatively good luck, not at all, what wooden barrels fell here. But being fine does not mean that there is nothing in their hearts. When they saw the fire engulfing their horses, their companions, and even the entire city of Dalu, some people could not help but shouted, “This is the god Punishment for our acts as enemies with mercenaries.”

“Ah! This is heavenly punishment, which cannot be controlled at all. Brothers, let’s surrender and relieve the anger of Heavenly God.”

“We surrender, and we are willing to atone for our sins.”

When the voice came out, more and more Tatar cavalry knelt to the ground again, shouting loudly. There are even quick-handed people who have rushed under the gate tower desperately. They want to open the city gates and rush to the feet of the mercenaries to repent and use actual actions to atone for their sins.

“Asshole, what are you doing? You are not allowed to open the city gates, and you are not allowed to surrender? Come on, kill all those insanity, kill them.” Seeing the situation is already In the chaos, even the soldiers in the city didn’t listen to his general’s orders anymore, Hu Beier Complexion Ashen said.

Under the shouts, some soldiers who were still sober-minded rushed to the inner city gate with knives, facing their mad companions, first to discourage them, and then to use their knives. And chop. However, the number of personal soldiers was still too small, and there were too many soldiers going crazy. It has become a trend and cannot be stopped at all.

Seeing that the situation is out of control, Mu Ren, Hu Lin, Gao Er and other generals rushed to the front of Hu Beier with their soldiers, “General, the meaning of heaven, manpower is invincible, also Please retreat.”

His mouth murmured, Hu Beier didn’t want to admit that he failed this time, but now he has other options. In the end, he uttered a very difficult word, “Retreat!”

Hubeier knew that the manpower could not return to heaven, so he had to rush out of the city and return in a swirl of dust or when he had a chance. But it started in Dongshan. Before leaving the city, he had not forgotten General Qige who had attacked the city under Xuanfu City and there were more than 10,000 Tatar cavalry there. “Quickly, send a quick horse to inform General Qige, and retreat as soon as possible.”

Taking all the soldiers, and about 5,000 cavalry, a total of 6,000 people in the front and back, and the soldiers opened up. Answering Lu, the person in the city gate, Hu Beier rushed out with the army.

The soldiers of the new army waiting for the city gate have awakened from the initial shock. Under the orders of the battalion commander, company commander, and platoon commander, they all got ready for battle. When they saw a huge fire igniting in the city, I don’t know how many prairie warriors were shocked, and at the same time they were thinking that War God was indeed a messenger sent by Möngke Tengri. Even God was willing to help him. I really don’t know. Who else will be his opponent.

The fire in the city continued, and the city gate outside the city opened, and then countless Tatar cavalry rushed out. As soon as they appeared, they rushed forward with madness. Seeing that, it was clear that they wanted the mercenaries to fight for a life and death.

“Blow the charge, kill the enemy!” Seeing that the general situation is complete, the commander Hu Mang opened his mouth and sent orders to attack.

full of energy, the mercenary fighters with high morale, now taking battalions as a unit, rushed to the front peak, and launched a fatal blow to the remnants of the Tatar cavalry.

The cavalry from both sides quickly fought together in the first two miles of Dalu city gate. The new army, which has a great advantage in strength and morale, was only after a few encounters. Just pierce through the formation of the enemy’s riding, and kill the enemy by throwing away his helmet and armor.

“General, let’s go quickly, I’ll break it.” Gore yelled, and then he took hundreds of soldiers who belonged to him and more than 1,000 Tatar cavalry around him to form a group of people The wall blocked Hu Beier and the others after they fled.

Under the current situation, it is obviously impossible to go all the way. Only a part of it is left, and there may be chances of luck.

Gore stayed on his own initiative, seeing that Hubier, who was riding a horse galloping under the protection of his own soldiers, had wet eyes. He knew what the fate would be after making this decision, but At this moment, he seemed to have no choice.

“Go.” After hesitating for a while, Hu Beier’s whip flicked fiercely towards the horse who stepped down, protecting it from the two generals Mu Ren and Hu Lin and hundreds of soldiers. Below, they finally broke out of the encirclement of the new army and headed straight to Southwest.

The remaining General Gore took thousands of cavalrymen with them, but they just persisted for less than one hour, and they were all wiped out. Among them, Gore was killed by dozens of knives in his body. So far, he also announced the Tatar cavalry. The defeat and the brilliant victory of the New First Army.

This battle, the fire in the city burned more than 1,000 Tatar troops, burned more than 2,000 people, killed 3,000 enemy horses, and surrendered nearly 13,000 soldiers.

Hu Beier took a few generals and more than five hundred horses to escape. The threat of the Tatar cavalry disappeared and went away in defeat.

“Clean the battlefield and prepare at the same time. There is a big fish coming.” Seeing the sun set after World War I, Army Commander Hu Mang ordered the man to bury the pot and cook. Order the army to take turns to rest in preparation for the next battle.

……

On Xuanfu City, Shi Wanshan is at the corner of the gate tower, and Deng Qiang, Furukawa, and Ning Wenfeng look at each other.

He had already notified the three of them about Yu Can’s arrival during the day, and then the four of them discussed it together for a long time, but they did not come up with a reason.

They all have the same problem in their hearts. The four doors of Xuanfu are closed. How does this Yui Chan know the news outside? After answering the matter in Lucheng last time, Ning Wenfeng deliberately stepped up patrols in the city, even if a bird flies into the city, it will be spotted. But the problem is that if not at all received any reports, how did the news come from?

There is another question. Yu Can said that the Tatar cavalry will retreat. What is it to rely on? Would they really be so obedient and retreat?

I can’t think of a reason, so I just stopped thinking about it. The four came to the gate tower early to eat and drink here, waiting for the situation to change.

A pair of chopsticks took a bite of the dish, and Furukawa, who had just recovered from his wounds, put it in his mouth and said, “Commander, you said we won’t be fooled by the man named Yu Can, right? , Suddenly gathered the army. If the news is false, don’t you have to call it for nothing?”

“Yes. If this incident is stabbed to the Imperial by someone who is interested On the Court, I’m afraid I don’t know how many people will Impeach us.” Guarding Court Eunuch Deng Qiang was also nodded. He doesn’t care whether the soldiers are tired or the death geometry of the soldiers. He only cares about one thing, that is, how they are treated in the Imperial Court, which will directly affect His Imperial Majesty’s attitude towards him and his future.

Listening to the two voices of questioning, Shi Wanshan said with a deep face, “To be honest, I don’t know whether Yu Can’s words have several points of true or false. But if he wants to come, he is willing to live his life. Guarantee, It shouldn’t be fake. Oh, yes, is Yu Canke here?”

“Come.” The one who answered him was the commander Ning Wenfeng, “Morning I came when it was just getting dark, and now my people are staring at his every move. If the news this time is false, he must not survive.”

“Okay.” Shi Wanshan nodded, “Even if he dares to bet his life, why don’t we play with him for a while, wait. It will be known before dawn at the latest.”

The deadline given by Shi Wanshan is dawn. Time. It just didn’t wait until that time, only in the middle of the night, the Tatar cavalry under the city began to change. General Qige had received the Kuaier dispatched fast horse scouts, and he knew of a fire in the city of Dalu.

The back road is cut off, and there will be no reinforcements and food in the future, and there may even be mercenaries. When introduced, he must be defeated by flanking on both sides. At this moment, it seemed that there was no other choice but to retreat.

“Pass the order, move out from camp by camp, try not to make any movement, especially not to disturb the Northern Ming army.” Qige summoned the generals and issued the order to withdraw the troops. . It’s just that he still kept an eye on him, not at all about Hu Beier’s defeat. He only said that the general was going to start a decisive battle with the mercenaries, and his troops were insufficient, and they needed help.

For the city of Xuanfu, which is as hard as a king’s shell, the Tatar cavalry who are not good at attacking the city have long been tired of it. Now they have the opportunity to leave here, naturally no one opposes them. It was a happily promised, and then each launched a retreat as planned.

The retreat of the Tatar army has been arranged very carefully. If it is normal, in the dark, I am afraid that it will really allow them to retreat smoothly without being discovered. But now it’s different. Dozens of scouts have already been sent to pay attention to their movements. As soon as there was a move, the news was sent to Shi Wanshan.

“Are they really moving?” Shi Wanshan was surprised when he heard the scout small future newspaper. Deng Qiang and the others on the side were also very surprised, writing everything on their faces.
