Chapter 908
: Playing with Tartars
When the cavalry of the two Khanate countries of the Kazakh Khanate and the Shuo Khanate discussed countermeasures, the Ming army did not pursue them, but loaded bullets with rifled rifles and meditated on the spot to rest.
Seeing that the coalition forces were coming up slowly again and holding bows and arrows in their hands, Huang Xiaohu immediately passed the order:
"Brothers, please pay attention. The Tartars are ready to shoot against us with bows and arrows. Keep a distance of 150 meters. Don't let the Tartars get close. This time you can kill them with all your strength!"
"yes"
The Ming army soldiers agreed and immediately stood up from the ground, but Huang Xiaohu suddenly said:
"Also, when you wait for the arrow to be fired, you must seize the opportunity. One of the four people must pretend to be caught in an arrow and fall to the ground. Do you hear it?"
"yes"
Although the soldiers did not know what Huang Xiaohu sold in the gourd, they would firmly execute the order.
The soldiers of the coalition forces of the two countries approached the Ming army carefully. When they were still two hundred meters away from the Ming army, the cavalry broke through and urged the horses to pounce on them quickly. Almost at the same time, the bows and arrows in their hands were also shot out.
Regardless of whether these Tartars could shoot the Ming army or not, their main purpose was to use the cover of arrows to rush into the Ming army formation and kill.
They believed that as long as the cavalry rushed to the infantry, the infantry without shelter would immediately become a lamb to be slaughtered.
Just kidding, the Ming army was two hundred meters away from them, and it was difficult to ride a bow and arrow to injure the Ming army, even one hundred meters.
"shot!"
Huang Xiaohu could not give the coalition a chance to get close. When the opponent entered 150 meters, the Ming army exhaled anger at the muzzle.
"Bang bang bang..."
"Puff puff puff puff..."
The coalition cavalry immediately splashed blood mist on their bodies, and they fell off their war horses one by one.
This time they were not lucky, most of them were shot dead, and at the same time, the Ming army also fell down many people in the coalition cavalry shooting, but the Ming army's formation was not at all confusing, and the gunfire was still so fierce.
More than 1,000 people fell down in one round of charge, and more than 700 people were also fell down in the Ming army.
Qianhu, a cavalryman of the Kazakh Khanate, changed his face. He found that the Ming army's marksmanship suddenly became much more accurate. He was about to send an order to retreat, but suddenly felt his chest chills.
He looked down and saw blood gushing in his chest. The group screamed and fell off his horse.
“Retreat quickly…”
The thousand cavalrymen of the Heshuo Khanate did not dare to rush. Seeing that the thousand cavalrymen of the Kazakh Khanate were killed, he immediately sent an order to retreat.
"Bang bang bang..."
The war horses could not stop and turn around in an instant during the impact. Just as they turned their heads and retreated, more than 300 people were killed.
The two thousand cavalry of the coalition forces were killed in the first round of charge, and another five hundred and six ponies were killed.
Nearly a thousand people were killed in the second round of charge, while the thousand cavalrymen of the Kazakh Khanate did not escape and were shot dead by the Ming army.
Less than five hundred men left, and hundreds of Tartar cavalry who lost their war horses.
Seeing the cavalry retreat, these soldiers without war horses turned around and ran away.
Zhu Cixuan looked at the military camp with the telescope in his hand, and just saw all this clearly.
"Zhang Lu, order our two cavalry teams of thousands of people to kill us."
"yes"
Zhang Lu agreed and immediately conveyed Zhu Cixuan's order.
Two thousand Ming army cavalry rushed out of the barracks quickly and left two roads from the middle of the trenches to attack the coalition cavalry.
The coalition forces were killed and lost their morale. Now they saw the Ming army moving, and they ran faster than rabbits.
The Ming cavalry chased after a while and killed only more than 100 people, and more than 300 others ran away.
I can't catch up with the Tartar cavalry, but there are more than 500 infantry soldiers who have lost their war horses!
The two thousand Ming cavalry immediately turned their horses and chased the hundreds of people.
The cavalry who lost their war horses was tragic. They were soon caught up by the Ming cavalry and shot them. The Ming army did not even give them the chance to surrender.
Seeing that the Tartars were either killed or fled, Huang Xiaohu shouted to the one or two hundred Ming soldiers lying on the ground:
"All up! The real battle will come soon."
"yes"
When the Ming army lying on the ground pretending to be caught in an arrow, they all laughed and got up.
This is the first time they were shot and fell down after being shot in the Ming army, and of course they all pretended to die.
It was a victory that successfully killed more than a thousand Tartars and had not allowed the opponent to see the true strength of the Ming army.
Zhu Cixuan knew that the coalition forces would arrive soon and immediately sent an order to prepare for war:
"The real battle is about to begin. Each department carefully checks the firearms and ammunition, and don't lose the chain when fighting with the Tartars!"
Li Yan and Zhang Fugui and the others smiled:
"Your Highness, don't worry! You have been ready for a long time, just waiting for the Tartars to die."
Zhu Cilang nodded:
"Soldiers must pay attention that the Rakshasa Kingdom not only has muskets but also cannons. When they bombard, you must hide in the trenches and have not ordered anyone not to leave the trenches without authorization.
Also, the opponent must have a lot of people. Once the general really fights, you three teams will find time to exchange positions with each other, otherwise the muskets will not be able to stand it!"
"yes"
After Zhu Cilang finished explaining, Li Yan looked at the young players and said:
"Your Highness is right. Zhang Fugui will still be the leader at that time. Huang Dahu and I will fight the second and third formations. We will rotate to fight each other. This way, not only can the firearms get rest, but the soldiers should also fight lighter!"
Zhang Fugui laughed:
"Yes! This is a pain in Meng Liang. He doesn't know when he will squat in the cave!"
"Hahaha……"
Zhang Fugui's words immediately caused the soldiers to burst into laughter.
The war is approaching, and it is rare for the Ming army commander and soldiers to maintain such a relaxed mentality.
In fact, this also benefits the Ming Dynasty's strong equipment production capacity. The guys in his hands are more important than anything else. He killed more than a thousand Tartar cavalry in one battle just now, but none of the Ming soldiers were injured, and no one died in battle.
In the coalition camp, the Khanate of Kazakhstan Taiji Heshuo Khanate is anxiously waiting for news from the two thousand-man teams.
This was their first time fighting with the Ming army, so they sent two teams of thousands to test the strength of the Ming army.
They all believed that they were cavalry under their command, and even if they could not defeat the Ming army, they could escape unscathed, with a maximum of hundreds of casualties.
But they did not expect that the two thousand houses were too brave and could retreat after the first round of attacks, but they were eager to make contributions and wanted to eat the Ming army in one bite.
Suddenly, the coalition forces of the two countries probed the Malay newspaper:
"Reporting to Taiji and Da Khan, our thousand-man team is fighting with the Ming army. The Ming army is all musket teams, but there seems to be a problem with the accuracy, and our army has a small number of casualties..."
The two generals were stunned at that time, and the Khanate of Heshuo Khan said:
"No! Minggou has so many people, we only have two teams of thousands of people, so can we still get a advantage?"
Kazakh Taiji:
"It is also possible, because our army is all cavalry..."
The Khanate of the Heshuo Khanate:
"If you investigate and report again, you must look at Qingming Dog's strength. Even if you are two thousand-man teams, you will be willing to take advantage of it."
Kazakh Taiji:
"Well, use two thousand-man teams to test the virtuality and reality of the Ming army, and then the 100,000 troops of the two countries pressed forward to destroy the Ming army in one fell swoop. Even if it lost two thousand people, it was worth it."
