If the Tartars were equipped with a new flintlock musket and began to shoot interceptively from a distance of 150 steps. With the ultra-high firing rate of the flintlock musket, it would definitely be able to block more than a thousand war horses.

However, what they held was not a flintlock gun, but an old-fashioned mesh gun.

The combs with much less power can only be killed or damaged by less than eighty steps. In addition, the combs with a rate of fire are almost twice as slow as the flintlock gun. It is impossible to cause destructive attacks to more than a thousand war horses that are crazy and block them on the charge.

As for the bows and arrows that the Tartars are very good at, if they are used to fight against the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers who have given up their armor, they will definitely achieve considerable results. However, its opponent is not the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers, but the number of war horses with sharp drops to 700 or 800, thick skin and flesh...

Although sharp arrows can cause damage to the galloping war horses. However, these damage can only be considered flesh and blood. Not only can it not cause a fatal blow to the war horses, but it also further increases the mania of the war horses to a certain extent.

Therefore, after the joint attack of the Tartar musketeers and archers, more than a thousand crazy war horses were lost, but the remaining war horses continued to rush towards the Tartar army as usual.

Soon, more than 400 remaining war horses on the battlefield had a very close contact with the Tartar musketeers.

As an army with powerful cavalry, the Later Jin army has always used iron cavalry to attack the enemy, and has never considered it, and it has also been attacked by the enemy.

Therefore, facing the war horse that was ramming into his war horse, there was no Tartar musketeer trained in this area. His first reaction was to throw the musket down and turn around and escape to the rear to prevent himself from dying under the hoof of the war horse, and not even a complete body could be left behind.

However, no matter how fast their reaction speed is, it is not as fast as the speed of the war horses running.

In just a blink of an eye, the Tartar musket formation with 5,000 musketeers was rushed into chaos by more than 400 war horses. Hundreds of Tartar musketeers who were escaping their lives were directly hit on the ground by the war horses, and their lives were uncertain...

At this moment, the 10,000 elite border troops holding various cold weapons rushed over.

How could the Tartar musketeers who are already in chaos, except for the melee combat melee combat melee combat melee combat melee combat melee combat elite opponents?

In just one round of battle, thousands of Tartar musketeers, with their despair before their death, were cut and stabbed to death by ten thousand elite troops with big swords and spears on the battlefield.

Facing the ending of the battle in front of us, on the battlefield where the battle with the Tatars was fought, the 10,000 elite troops who had a rare victory and advantage were as if they were hit by chicken blood. The morale of the Vietnam War was higher.

Waving the weapon still dripping with blood in his hand, he continued to rush forward to attack the Tartars formation, killing him when he saw the Tartars, just like an angry lion, completely bursting out his resentment and combat power...

On the other hand, the Tartar musketeers and archers faced the elite border troops like gods of killing, as if they encountered a demon, and their faces turned pale in an instant.

Those who are more courageous can raise their muskets and fight with the border troops. Those who are less courageous will drop their weapons and escape to the rear, further aggravating the chaos of the Tartar infantry formation.

Soon, most of the Tartar infantry in the infantry formation fought with the elite border troops rushing over.

At this time, the commander of the Later Jin army, who had successfully evacuated the infantry formation, finally saw clearly who the enemy was from behind him?

When he saw the border military uniforms on these people, he almost fainted due to shock.

At this moment, the deputy general standing beside him directly spoke a reality that he dared not face on the battlefield.

"Prince, it's over, more than 10,000 infantry soldiers, it's over..."

"Now I finally know why the Han people in Liaoyang City agreed to the harsh conditions we proposed so readily. It turns out that all this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against us. The Ming border troops defending Liaoyang City have no intention of surrendering to us. They took the opportunity to leave the city by taking advantage of the reason for surrendering to us, and together with the Tiger and Leopard Army we were fighting against, we would kill us here..."

"Most of our more than 10,000 infantry are only equipped with bows and arrows and muskets. In the melee battlefield, they are no match for these Ming border troops..."

Speaking of this, the deputy general seemed to realize something. While his face changed drastically, he exhorted loudly to the commander who was still shocked, gloomy, solemn... with various complex expressions.

"Prince, our more than 10,000 infantry are finished and there is no rescue. However, the cavalry that we still have left cannot be destroyed on the battlefield like this... Cavalry is the foundation of our Later Jin army, and we must not be destroyed here. Therefore, I beg the prince to immediately order the cavalry warriors who are fighting on the battlefield to retreat. Prince, you take the remaining cavalry and immediately withdraw the Later Jin. The servant personally leads the remaining infantry on the battlefield and swears to cut off the rear of the prince to the death, so that you can return to the Later Jin safely..."

"I really can't save this defeat..." After the deputy general persuaded, the prince did not answer immediately, but continued to ask back with a look of reluctance.

The deputy general shook his head and pointed to the battlefield where the battle was in front of him and replied: "Prince, the battlefield is right in front of him. Do you think that the infantry that has become one-sided is still possible to turn defeat into victory?"

"If the infantry loses, relying solely on the few cavalry, may it be the opponent of the tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Army? Therefore, we only have one way to retreat. Otherwise, we will be left here by the Tiger and Leopard Army and end up with a complete defeat."

Speaking of this, the deputy general who took a deep breath continued to analyze: "Although our cavalry warriors are very brave, their combat effectiveness is far superior to the Iron Cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Army. However, the equipment of the Iron Cavalry of the Tiger and Leopard Army is very good. The cavalry fighting on the battlefield, our cavalry warriors, even if they can win the final victory, the price we need to pay will be very huge."

"So, in order to save more cavalry warriors, please give your retreat order immediately."

In the face of facts, the prince had to lower his arrogant head and accept the cruel reality in front of him. At this moment, his solemn face was covered by a trace of death.

After taking a deep breath, he said helplessly: "Since that's the case, then order the warriors to retreat and prepare to evacuate Liaodong."

"The prince's wise slave immediately made people shout and let the soldiers withdraw." A glimpse of glory smile flashed across the face of the deputy general and replied loudly.

The six thousand iron cavalry that fought against the Tiger and Leopard Army Cavalry Division, plus the four thousand iron cavalry that followed the attack on the Tiger and Leopard Army Infantry Division, totaled 10,000 Later Jin cavalry. Even those who successfully retreated were less than six thousand cavalry.

Two thousand people were lost on the battlefield of fighting with the Cavalry Division of the Tiger and Leopard Army.

On the battlefield where the Tiger and Leopard Army Infantry Division was attacked, two thousand people were also lost.

On the battlefield of cavalry fighting, which had gradually calmed down, although the Cavalry Division of the Tiger and Leopard Army also lost 3,000 people in the battle just now, the face of the Later Jin army commander who had obtained the results and suffered losses still showed a hint of despair on his face.

He murmured to the deputy general: "I really didn't expect that the well-equipped Tiger and Leopard Army cavalry would have such strong combat power. If the Tiger and Leopard Army had enough of this kind of iron cavalry, then our Later Jin Dynasty would lose all advantages in front of the Tiger and Leopard Army."

Before the commander of the Later Jin army had finished speaking, he exclaimed again and shouted out from the deputy general's mouth.

"Your Majesty, you don't have time to continue to worry about this issue."

"On the battlefield of infantry fighting, the warriors can't hold on for too long and will not retreat, and they will not be able to leave." After saying that, he directly ordered a cavalry general who had just retreated from the battlefield.

"What are you doing when you are standing there? Protect the prince to withdraw the Later Jin immediately. If you cannot send the prince back to the Later Jin safely, not only you, but your family will be buried with the prince."

"Leave a thousand cavalry and follow me to block the possible pursuit of the Tiger and Leopard Army. Other warriors, retreat immediately, protect the prince and retreat immediately."

After the deafening sound of horse hooves sounded on the battlefield, the prince, who was surrounded and protected by five thousand cavalry, quickly retreated in the direction of Hou Jin like a gust of wind.

As for the 1,000 cavalry commanded by the deputy general, they lined up and quietly blocked the official road, giving more time to the retreating prince.

At this moment, almost one-third of the soldiers were missing on the chaotic infantry battle field.

As more and more soldiers of our enemies fell on the battlefield, the situation on the battlefield became clearer and clearer.

More than 12,000 Tartar infantry, most of them were not equipped with cold weapons suitable for melee combat. They had almost no ability to resist in front of elite border troops with big swords and spears.

Therefore, almost all the Tartar musketeers and archers, who were almost eight thousand people, fell on the battlefield and turned into corpses.

Of course, while eliminating these archers and musketeers, the 10,000 elite border troops also paid the price of about 3,000 people. After all, the border troops killed enemies that could resist, not pigs.

At this moment, there were still fighting on the bloody battlefield, only four or five thousand Tartars, and more than six thousand elite border troops.
