Chapter 684 The Conspiracy
A Tartar tribe that the Tiger and Leopard Army had occupied for two days. Although thousands of Tartar corpses were burned to ashes, a faint smell of blood still filled the battlefield, letting everyone know that there had just been a bloody massacre here...
However, even so, this tribe was still identified as a left-behind base by Sun Chengzong...
Hundreds of thousands of cattle, sheep and livestock that were plundered within a radius of dozens of miles, worth hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, were all piled up here... Of course, along with these harvests, there was also a battalion of five hundred musketeers.
Ao Bai, who knew that he was not the opponent of the 20,000 Tiger and Leopard Army, directly led his 10,000 cavalry to bypass the main force of the Tiger and Leopard Army, and set his first target on this left-behind base.
At this moment, Ao Bai and his ten thousand cavalry were gathering quietly in a mountain depression less than ten miles away from the tribe. Under the cover of night, while replenishing their energy, they waited for the scout to send the latest news back...
Just as Ao Bai was lying in a simple tent, squinting his eyes and replenishing his energy.
A slightly rapid footsteps suddenly rang outside the tent.
Then, Ao Bai's closed eyes suddenly opened and two clever gazes shot out.
The curtain of the tent was pushed open, and the captain of the scout team flashed in very agilely, preventing the cold wind from blowing into the tent as much as possible.
After seeing Ao Bai quickly sweeping at his gaze, the captain of the scout quickly reported...
"General, the situation has been investigated clearly... The five hundred tigers and leopards are divided into four, defending the tribe in four directions, and each direction is one hundred musketeers... The other musketeers are all hiding in the tribe. If they are equipped with artillery, they will not know whether the slaves are... "
Hearing this, he sneered and suddenly appeared on Ao Bai's face.
He said coldly to his subordinates gathered around him: "Five hundred musketeers. If they gather together, I will still be worried... Now, they are divided into four. Isn't that waiting to be destroyed by us..."
Speaking of this, a trace of seriousness appeared on Ao Bai's face and said loudly: "Warriors, this is the opportunity for the Tiger and Leopard Army to give us revenge, and it is also the opportunity for the Tiger and Leopard Army to make everyone famous..."
"As far as I know, the tribe in front of me has collected more than 100,000 cattle, sheep and livestock, and more than 500,000 taels of silver... As long as everyone can conquer this tribe and eliminate the 500 tiger and leopard army in the defending tribe, these finances will be distributed to everyone... For fairness, each flag will eliminate a tiger and leopard army, rewarding 100 cattle and sheep, and 500 taels of silver... So, how much you can gain in this battle depends on everyone's efforts..."
Attracted by silver and cattle and sheep, the eyes of several generals gradually became hot.
After all, there are only one hundred Tiger and Leopard Army in each direction of the defensive tribe, and it is absolutely impossible to defend such a large tribe.
This gave everyone the opportunity to rejoin the tribe, fight with the Tiger and Leopard Army musketeers, and eliminate the Tiger and Leopard Army through close-range battles.
Thinking of these, several Tartar generals who were eager to try, asked for a fight directly..." General, two thousand warriors of my Zhenglan Banner are willing to take on an attack in one direction... "" My Zhenghong Banner is also willing to take on an attack in one direction... "" My Zhengbai Banner is also counted as one..."
When the battlefield was still shrouded by night, ten thousand Later Jin cavalry divided into four directly and rushed to the battlefield. In the night, they surrounded the tribes and were ready to attack.
Finally waited until dawn. Ao Bai issued an offensive order.
The Later Jin Iron Cavalry with eight thousand eyes shining was like a tiger going down the mountain, yelling and rushing towards the tribe that was surrounded by itself several miles away...
Soon, the sound of horse hooves sounded from the battlefield. Even the battlefield was on the ground began to tremble.
"Where did the sound of horse hooves come from..." The Tartars had just begun to attack, and with a scream, they broke the tranquility within the tribe.
Then, all kinds of screams began to ring on the battlefield...
"Cabinets... are large-scale cavalry..."
"It's the Tartars. We were surrounded by the Tartar cavalry. The Tartars attacked us... hurry up, defend immediately..."
"All musketeers, come in place soon...artillery, bomb thrower, are ready for combat..." At this time, the battalion commander located in the middle of the tribe finally reacted and shouted at his slightly chaotic subordinates around him...
In a blink of an eye, the Iron Tatar Cavalry, who could only hear the sound of horse hooves and could not see people, appeared in everyone's sight.
Looking around, the Tartars rushed towards the tribe from four directions at the same time were like four unstoppable waves, surging towards the tribe.
Three hundred steps, when the Later Jin Iron Cavalry was still three hundred steps away from the tribe, more than ten light mortars began to roar.
Each round of twelve flowering bullets, divided into four, landing continuously among the Tartars and exploded, causing bloody rain after blood.
However, limited damage is obviously a bit insignificant for the two thousand Tartars in each direction.
The eight thousand Tartars in four directions rushed into the range of the musket after only over a hundred casualties.
So, the sound of gunfire sounded like a bean was heard on the battlefield.
However, although more than 30 sign-in signs per round, although they are powerful, their range of killing is very limited. Once they guard this side, the Tartar cavalry in other directions can continue to attack the tribe without any scruples.
On the battlefield where gunfire sounded, the eight thousand Tartars, who were riding on war horses, were constantly shot and dropped.
However, the huge storm-making formation of the Tartars continued to advance towards the tribe.
With the advantage of military strength, the Tartars' dense attack formation had just been hit by a lead bullet, and the Tartars behind would fill the gap without hesitation and then continue to attack forward...
After clearly seeing the situation on the battlefield, the battalion commander who had arrived on the front line of the battlefield knew that unless there were reinforcements..., with the remaining troops at hand, he would definitely not be able to stop the attack of the Tartars...
At this moment, the Tartars, who successfully rushed into the longbow range, were no longer passively beaten...
While controlling the war horse with both legs, he raised his longbow and began to shoot arrows at the Tiger and Leopard Army Musketeers...
The musketeer, who was already short of troops, suffered heavy casualties in the face of thousands of arrows in a round.
The musket array that stood in front of the Tartars also became chaotic.
Of course, the Tartars would not miss such a good opportunity.
While continuing to shoot arrows at the Tiger and Leopard Army, he rushed towards the Tiger and Leopard Army musket formation at the fastest speed...
