Chapter 418 Surrounded on all sides

Li Hongji's escape movement was quite large, and he immediately attracted his men who were scattered in the mountains and forests. When the two parties met, he had no time to say anything and just shouted, "Let's go quickly."

Then, the group of people immediately went down the mountain, got on their horses, and ran away. Behind them, there was a small group of cavalry chasing them, and behind them there was a large group of cavalry.

"Send a distress signal!" Li Hongji gritted his teeth as he saw more and more pursuing soldiers behind him.

boom!

A bouquet of gorgeous fireworks flies into the sky, and all nearby friendly forces that see the bouquet of fireworks will come to the rescue.

"Distress signal!" Mao Wenlong looked at the fireworks in the sky, "Go, go there." Behind him were thousands of cavalry, who had just looted from a small Mongolian tribe. As for the cattle and sheep, some people had already driven back.

It's camp.

He really loved the style of the field army. During the battle, he could also share the spoils.

"There's someone asking for help over there!" Mangui looked at the fireworks in the sky and laughed, "I'm worried that I can't find these Mongolian Tatars."

With a rumble, hundreds more cavalrymen rushed away.

Around Guihua City, 50,000 cavalrymen were scattered around, intercepting the Mongolian sentry and cutting off their tentacles with the outside world. But now, these soldiers and horses were disturbed by a bunch of fireworks.

"What, discovered part of Lin Dan Khan's main force?" From the rear, General Li Tu, after receiving the report from the scouting horse, was full of joy. "Gather the troops immediately."

Soon, Zhang Shize, who also received the report, came over and said, "I heard that Lin Dan Khan's main force has been found?"

Adhering to Zhu Youxiao's consistent thinking, the field army now likes to aim at annihilating the enemy's effective forces.

"It's just part of the main force, about 50,000 to 60,000, but we have enough. If we attack here, we won't be afraid that Lin Danhan will be too shy to come out." Li Tu said with a smile. At this time, the cavalry brigade acting as the vanguard was only three miles away from Guihua City.

Forty miles away, it took an hour to reach Guihua City, but they still didn't encounter Lin Danhan's large army at such a close distance from Guihua City, which was really bearable.

"Put up the military flag and set off." Li Tu shouted, and the troops quickly mobilized and quickly completed the assembly. "I will lead the main force first. You gather the troops along the way and attack the enemy's rear flank."

"Okay!" Zhang Shize nodded in agreement. He didn't think too much about this. Although they were both generals, he had more seniority in the army than Li Tuqian, and even Zhang Ya and Xie Gao, two second-tier echelons

His qualifications are even lower, and his actual combat experience is not as much as that of Li Tu, so it is natural to give up the main force in such a difficult moment.

Boom!

Horse hooves flew, trampled mud flew up in all directions, and fifty thousand elite cavalry galloped across the land like a long dragon. During the walk, countless scouting horses returned and gathered under Zhang Shize's command, gradually growing stronger.

The last group of cavalry to return was none other than Li Hongji and his group. Multiple waves of cavalry came to the rescue, allowing him to escape the pursuit and get out of danger.

In this way, one hundred thousand cavalry, echoing back and forth, roared towards Guihua City.

At this moment, Guihua City is in chaos. There are people standing on the top of the city. A general is standing on the top of the city, looking at the black line with a large white mist in the distance with a worried face. This kind of momentum, at least there is

One hundred thousand cavalry, I don’t know if Guihua City can take it down.

Everyone was nervously preparing supplies to defend the city, but to their surprise, the large group of cavalry ignored Guihua City and just passed by and rushed toward the Daqing Mountain behind the city.

"This direction..." The general's face changed, and he suddenly turned pale. That was a logistics base. How could the Ming Dynasty people discover it?

"Quick, go and inform the Khan that the logistics are under attack." The general ordered quickly, and soon, Juechen rode out and ran in the other direction towards Daqing Mountain.

Finally, the general who defended the city looked at the Ming cavalry before and after them, and gritted his teeth. He opened the city gate and gathered his troops outside the city. After the white smoke in front disappeared, he led 50,000 cavalrymen.

The cavalry guarding the city rode up and followed.

In that valley, there was chaos. The neighing of cattle and sheep was mixed with the shouts of people and horses, making it quite noisy. This is a secret logistics base, and it will be moved if it is discovered. However, hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep

, how can it be transferred so easily.

Suddenly, a trembling feeling came from the soles of his feet, and the expression of the general guarding the place changed immediately. With his rich experience, he immediately judged that this was the precursor of a large group of cavalry approaching at a gallop.

"Gather, gather!" the general yelled. He had no time to clean up, and the enemy was chasing after him.

Soon, the herdsmen and cavalry guarding the valley gathered together, and under the leadership of their respective leaders, they left the valley one after another and came to the foot of the mountain.

"I hope the support from the Great Khan can come soon." Looking at the overwhelming black line in the distance, the general was worried.

When Li Tu drove his large group of troops to the foot of the mountain, what he saw was this. A large number of neatly arranged cavalry gathered on the gentle slope at the foot of the mountain, occupying favorable terrain, and waiting for them condescendingly.

The opponent's terrain was favorable, and the cavalry under his command were galloping all the way, revitalized and scattered. Therefore, Li Tu did not rush forward impatiently, but stopped, and then looked around the horse to check whether there was any ambush. This sight really surprised him.

The writing situation was discovered.

"Report to the general, smoke and dust are rising from the west, and a large group of cavalry is coming at a gallop!"

"Report to the general that there is an enemy attack from the east, estimated at 50,000 cavalry."

"Li Tu, there is a large group of cavalry coming from behind. There are quite a few, about fifty thousand." Zhang Shize also chased from behind and shouted loudly.

Surrounded from all sides!

"Okay, you're welcome." However, facing this critical situation, Li Tu was not timid at all. Instead, he was very excited and kept applauding.

"General Zhang, are you interested in defeating these chickens and dogs together?"

Zhang Shize was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "That's exactly what I meant."

"Okay! Gather all the armies!" Li Tu laughed and ordered loudly. A hundred thousand troops were unwilling to swarm forward. At this time, they had to disperse against the enemy. Naturally, it was better to bring back their own men. Moreover, if they were to divide the elites, they would not be able to attack the enemy.

This creates a situation where one head is stronger than the other.

After all, it is not your strongest point that determines your strength, but your weakest point. This was obtained after Li Tu had a tit-for-tat confrontation with the Jurchens last year.

After being caught and beaten by him, he was not able to force him back so easily.

There were enemies in front of them, interceptors in the rear, and cavalry constantly coming on both sides. But Li Tu was not in a hurry, and Zhang Shize was not in a hurry. They just watched countless people and horses constantly shuttle back and forth, reorganizing the queue.

Under this pressure, the two cavalry armies reorganized with unprecedented efficiency and rapid completion rate, and the formation suddenly took on a completely new look. The cavalry general on the slope in front of them, looking at the chaotic appearance below, felt itchy in his heart and wanted to rush forward.

Go down and wreak havoc.

But he was afraid that this was a trap. The opponent had twice as many people as him, and they were well-equipped, including iron armor, cavalry, short guns, and muskets, all of which were better than him. In the end, he resisted the idea of ​​taking action and wanted to wait for both sides.

After the encirclement, come again to encircle and kill.

"How about it, you choose a direction." Li Tu looked at Zhang Shize and said with a smile.

"How about you go in front and I go behind?" Zhang Shize said.

"If you have good eyesight, that's it." Li Tu raised his thumb and praised. Unexpectedly, his words were laced with elegance.

"Set off!"

"Set off!"

Coincidentally, the two men gave orders simultaneously, and the entire army slowly started to move and run. The Hussars were formed a year earlier and had rich experience, so they faced the most difficult enemy.

The Qiaoqi Army chose to go behind. There was still some distance between the enemies on both sides. Moreover, only by breaking through front and back could they prevent the enemies from following them.

"Kill!" Li Tu raised his whip and roared.

Boom!

The horses' hooves fell and they galloped out. The generals on the slope of the ground were almost stupid. The opponent was at a disadvantage in the terrain and dared to attack first. Didn't he know that we were encircling him from all sides? Didn't he know how to assemble his troops and escape?

Then, he became furious again, "How do you look down on me? You actually launched a direct attack on me." Seeing the cavalry below divided into two groups, charging back and forth, the general could no longer hold back the throbbing in his heart, and issued an order.

.

"charge!"

Wow, wow wow, the Mongolian cavalry screamed and launched a charge. Deep in the Mongolian plateau, the winter wind was constantly cold. Even though the weather was slightly better at the moment, bows and arrows were of little use in such a battlefield environment of relative charge.

Then on the downhill slope, the Mongolian cavalry rushed down like a tiger, with a surging arrogance that could hardly be concealed.

Facing the enemy's arrogance, the Hussars soldiers were not timid, but responded calmly. The sergeant in the front row silently picked up the blunderbuss, adjusted the distance, and then pulled the trigger.

Bang bang bang!

A series of gunpowder smoke appeared, obscuring the view, but it quickly dissipated under the cold wind. Looking around, one could see that the charging Mongolian cavalry had lost a piece, and even its fierce momentum was blocked.

But, it's not over yet. Then, there is another sound like banging fried beans, which is the cavalry in the second row. Then, there is another burst of the same sound, which is the cavalry in the third row.

The classic three-stage attack tactic.

However, after three shots, the ones at the back were gone. If you fired from the back, it would be easy to accidentally injure the knights in the front row. But three times was enough. At this moment, Li Tu, who was in the middle army, looked at the entire center of the enemy army.

, there is already an empty space, and the speed here is full and somewhat out of touch with both sides.

Although the speed was a bit slow, the soldiers still prepared their lances and rushed in densely like a forest. The four-meter long lance made the protruding part at the front resemble a sharp tip, piercing the Mongolia hard.

The center of the cavalry.

Arrow array, attack!

Tear!

An invisible feeling spread, and in the minds of the generals on both sides, the hussars almost easily tore through the Mongolian cavalry line without any hindrance.

Throwing away the lance and replacing it with a saber, the saber was raised straight, and with the momentum that had not dissipated, the blade of the blade slashed across the astonished enemy in front, and rushed in deeper.

Kill!
Chapter completed!
