Five hundred and fifty-eight chapters intercepted Kazakh cavalry

An unprecedented large-scale battle broke out in Shihezi, west of Urumqi. This fierce battle was similar to last year's Hami decisive battle. Tens of thousands of war horses and tens of thousands of muskets were thrown into the fierce battle, and warriors fell every moment.

Yang Jierhan looked at the Jiuzhou cavalry appearing in all directions, and in an instant he felt like he was surrounded by enemies. After the ice and snow melted, he received a letter of help from Dorgon, and led 20,000 Kazakh cavalry into the Ili area and then supported Turpan from the Ili area. However, before he arrived in Urumqi, he was surrounded by the Jiuzhou cavalry that appeared. The Kazakh cavalry was fighting fiercely with the suddenly appeared Jiuzhou cavalry.

"Damn it, didn't Dorgon know that such a huge cavalry unit had bypassed Turpan?!" Yang Jierhan led his horse to a high ground to observe the battle situation and found that there were nearly 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000

The cavalry of the Jiuzhou Army generally used muskets, and in some important places it dismounted and formed a powerful line formation of muskets to prevent the Kazakh cavalry from escaping.

"Khan, judging from the topographic map provided by Dorgon, there are two roads to Urumqi. The route to the south is Hami to Yanchi and Turpan, while the route to the north is the ancient city and Changji. Dorgon asked us to go to Turpan to join them. It is very likely that this large group of cavalry of the Jiuzhou Army came from the northern line. They may have captured the ancient city and Changji, and they may have bypassed these two cities and came straight for us." said a character like a strategist beside Yang Jierhan.

"They did not come to us, but to bypass Turpan and cut off the road to support Turpan from the northern line. It was just that we happened to arrive first than the Tsarist Russians." Yang Jierhan was on the battlefield and had a lot of experience in some tactical and intelligent strategies. He could almost quickly judge the intentions of the Jiuzhou Army.

It was only at this time that he realized the intention of the Jiuzhou Army. It seemed that it was too late. He did not know that he had encountered the three most powerful cavalry corps of the Jiuzhou Army. The soldiers of these cavalry corps separated from the concept of herders, but instead selected the most powerful young soldiers from the two million Mongolian tribes in the south of the Moon, the Jurchen tribe in the Liaodong, and the Han people outside the pass. They were conventional troops born for the war rather than scattered herders who were temporarily recruited. They also had the most excellent muskets and had experienced several war baptisms such as the Battle of Moon.

This time, the Liaodong Cavalry Corps, the Monan Cavalry Corps, and the Mobei Cavalry Corps gathered. The commander of the Liaodong Cavalry Corps was Sun Sheng, the commander of the Liaonan Cavalry Brigade who was originally stationed in Guihua City. At this time, the Liaonan Cavalry Corps had been merged into the Liaodong Cavalry and formed the Liaodong Cavalry Corps. The commander of the Monan Cavalry Corps was Wu Keshan of the Korqin Tribe. The commander of the Mobei Cavalry Corps was Qi Xing, the former face-paralytic brigade commander of the Liaodong Cavalry, who had once conquered Mobei. Except for the Mobei Cavalry Corps who sent a cavalry to support the Siberian pioneer regiment, these three corpses all came out in full swing, with a force of up to 30,000. In order to maintain sufficient mobility, a cavalry may have more than one war horse, and the number of war horses is more than 30,000.

Sun Sheng, Wu Keshan and Qi Xing led a group of senior cavalry officers to command three cavalry regiments on the high ground, and all the Kazakh cavalrymen who were aided in Shihezi in the future were annihilated or captured.

"They definitely didn't expect that we would be in the south of the desert, and the northern desert grasslands would be dispatched urgently to march into the west of the desert day and night." Wu Keshan looked at the surrounded Kazakh cavalry with satisfaction.

The cavalry of the Jiuzhou Army lies in the west and east of Shihezi in advance. After the Kazakh cavalry entered this area, they attacked the Kazakh cavalry. Yang Jier Khan could not make up his mind to break through, because once the breakout failed, it would turn into a defeat and a unilateral pursuit. The situation of the Kazakh cavalry now is more like fighting a trapped beast.

"The Kazakh Khanate is the dominant ruler of the Western Regions. Even if we don't fight with them now, we will encounter it sooner or later in a few years. We will first consume their troops here and save a lot of trouble in the future." Qi Xing said.

If Yang Jir Khan heard Qi Xing's words, he would definitely be chilling. It turned out that in the plan of the Jiuzhou Army, their Kazakh Khanate was also the same goal, it was just a matter of time.

"They thought that defeating the Junggar cavalry would be able to defeat our Mongolian tribes, but our cavalry in the south and north of the desert would be even more brave. This time, we would have to make them suffer a great loss. In the future, we can also fight to the west like Genghis Khan!" Wu Keshan's cavalry was on the war horse. Seeing the scene of tens of thousands of cavalry fighting, he couldn't help but yearn for the grand occasion of Genghis Khan's Western Expedition two or three hundred years ago.

"You see, their tactics are still very backward, there is no formation at all, and the number of firearms is very small. Just now, our two cavalry corps shot their men and horses from a certain distance, killing at least hundreds of people. Once they are surrounded, they will huddle in a group irregularly, waiting for their Khan's orders." Qi Xing said, pointing to the panicked Kazakh cavalry.

"Once the cavalry loses its vast combat space and mobility, the infantry that is not ashamed of horses will pose a great threat to us." Wu Keshan agreed.

"Send the order to dismount the Liaodong Cavalry Corps and use line tactics to force the Kazakh cavalry to retreat. The two cavalry corps in the south and north of the Moon each divided a cavalry of about 3,000 people to board the horse and prepare to pursue the enemy." Sun Shengze, who temporarily obtained command, was always paying attention to the changes in the battle situation and issued an order to attack in a timely manner.

The Liaodong Cavalry Corps, who were eyeing the battlefield, finally made a move. They dismounted and gathered into dense lines, pressing against the Kazakh cavalry huddled in a regiment under the command of the drums.

Dongdong, Dongdongdong. The regular drum beats were heard, and the Kazakh cavalry who had been thrown into the battlefield were nervous. The drum beats were like beating in their hearts, making them frightened!

"Khan, that unmoved Jiuzhou cavalry attacked us!" When the Liaodong Cavalry Corps moved, Yang Jier Khan became even more nervous, even sweating profusely.

If the two sides were at least evenly matched in numbers just now, then the Liaodong Cavalry Corps now deprived the Kazakh cavalry of the last advantage, and the three major cavalry corps of the Jiuzhou Army were in an absolute advantage.
