Yi Zijia understands very well.

The weakness of their team is that they only have infantry and artillery, but lack cavalry, the most critical strategic force.

In fact, any team that wants to use foot control against cavalry must have some cavalry to counterattack.

There must be at least 1/5 of the opponent's cavalry.

In this way, after defeating the opponent, you can use cavalry to harvest and expand the results.

Otherwise, they can only defeat the enemy, kill some at most, and then most of the wounded soldiers can escape with the help of horses.

With some training, those who are strong can survive.

Only musket wounds and arrow wounds are different.

The gunshot penetrates the body because it is small and deep, making it difficult to dig out. It can easily lead to inflammation, high fever, and eventually death.

The arrow is easy to pull out, but it is really impossible to dig it out.

Subsequently, Yi Zijia, for the sake of greater safety, once again ordered to maintain a defensive posture in the form of a hollow square formation while conducting alternate retreat marches.

This marching mode requires very strong training and organization.

Fortunately, their training and organization can still reach this level.

Otherwise, if it were the Ming army, it would definitely be defeated.

Then Amin, who was chasing, saw a strange scene from a distance.

The enemy is retreating alternately.

The rearguard square retreats first.

Forward square defense.

Then the two sides exchanged tasks,

The rear guard defended on the spot, with the muzzle of the gun aimed at the cavalry in the distance.

The forwards then retreat.

Alternate like this.

Amin observed carefully that if he charged hard now, he should be able to defeat one or two phalanxes.

But at this time, other teams will quickly follow up, using muskets, giant shields, and cannons to bombard and outflank his densely charging cavalry.

And if the cavalry disperses and harasses, they will be killed by the opponent's skirmishers using strange muskets from a distance.

This surprised him.

I didn't expect the opponent's firearm to be so sharp.

If the opponent uses all kinds of firearms with a long range, can his cavalry still fight?

Amin felt heavy in his heart.

For the sake of safety, their cavalry must stay at least one mile away from the other side.

Only in this way can we ensure that they are not beaten to death, otherwise they will be beaten to death by the other party.

This kind of distance will not have the effect of tiring the enemy, deterring the enemy, or reducing the enemy's morale.

On the contrary, the more the opponent retreats, the more confident he becomes.

The pace is more steady and faster.

They even started singing strange songs.

"I had a little lamb, and I took it on board."

"The damn first mate took a fancy to it, so I picked up a knife and chopped it."

Those red-haired people sang a popular ditty and laughed.

They were laughing at those "Tatar" people. Yes, the red-haired people at this time called all the Eastern barbarians Tatars.

They still treat the people of Eastern Ming Dynasty as civilized people.

Of course, they were also afraid of the Ming Dynasty's reclamation activities, and they repeatedly launched massacres for this purpose.

After hearing this, Wanli wanted to conquer, but he died before he could.

Amin just looked at the other party, and the other party slowly retreated.

Getting closer to the harbor.

The fighter plane was gradually lost.

In the final analysis, Amin did not want to lose his precious people.

Besides, his mission is to defend the rear, not to kill many people.

Among them, Amin's son and several young Beile boys repeatedly asked for a shot.

But they were all severely rejected by Amin.

At this time, Huang Taiji had already approached the battlefield.

In fact, at this time, he also thought about sending a letter immediately to let Amin delay the other party.

However, he was afraid that sending the letter would leak the news and cause his detour attack to fail.

In fact, Huang Taiji overestimated the courage of this maritime invasion team.

He thought that the opponent would successfully defeat Amin with the help of cannons and guns, and then attack Liaoyang and encircle his troops under the fortified city.

The most fundamental reason was that Huang Taiji had a player's perspective. He thought that this kind of maritime army must be very powerful if it could travel thousands of miles away.

He subconsciously brought it back to the time when John's country was fighting the Qing Dynasty, thinking that the opponent's muskets and cannons were very powerful, and that 7,000 people could easily defeat the 10,000 people he left behind.

That's why he didn't rush to send a message to Amin.

He did not expect that the opponent was so cowardly that he would retreat step by step in the face of only 2,000 cavalry.

Retreat all the way to the temporary harbor.

By this time Amin was awake enough, and his 5,000 infantrymen and soldiers had arrived.

He immediately ordered the infantry and soldiers to dig long trenches near the harbor to besiege the opponent's harbor.

Patrol with cavalry.

But the other party has a very fighting spirit.

Skirmishers come out to hunt them every day.

At this time, they will send dozens of cavalry to kill these skirmishers.

Both sides suffered casualties on each other.

In the end, the cavalry stopped killing them.

Their men dug trenches deeper to avoid being hunted by skirmishers.

An earth wall has been built above the harbor.

There is also a long trench in front of them.

There are many artillery pieces placed behind the earthen wall.

Therefore, the entire harbor is very solidly established.

There is also an array of matchlock guns at the back, and there is a wooden shed on the wall covered with earth to prevent water, arrows and fire.

Even if it rains, it can be fired smoothly.

On the contrary, when it rains, bows and arrows cannot be used unless you want to use up precious bow strings.

Amin could see that this was a seaport that could be defended for more than several years.

The other side has sea ships, which cannot stop their support at all.

It's impossible to conquer a place like this.

Unless you fight desperately.

He didn't know that the enemy was still behind them and was building a second castle.

While Amin was observing the harbor, Huang Taiji finally arrived with 6,000 cavalry, including 2,000 white-armored and 4,000 red-armored soldiers.

When Huang Taiji and his troops saw the harbor, they showed a complex expression of extreme disappointment.

When Amin saw Huang Taiji's team, he immediately understood Huang Taiji's intention.

He immediately went to the other side's army and knelt down to apologize.

"Great Khan, I did not hold them back. I lost my fighter plane and let the Great Khan bring his army back to rescue them in vain. Please punish the Great Khan."

The player Huang Taiji was of course very depressed.

But he also understood that this was a real war.

The battlefield is ruthless, and it is impossible to develop in the direction you imagined at any time.
