The consequences of a rout on the battlefield were extremely serious. The Tatar cavalry ran in front, and Xiao Ruxun led the Ming army in pursuit. The Tatar soldiers' horses were already tired from running and could not increase their speed, while the Ming army was waiting for work, and the horses
His speed is extremely fast and he can catch up with the opponent easily.
Xiao Ruxun took the lead, the spear in his hand was like a poisonous snake spitting out messages. Every time he stabbed a Tatar cavalry, a straggler Tatar cavalry fell off the horse. On both sides of him, Deng Kui, Zhang Yunlong, Xiong Minfan, Hu Jingliang and others each held steel knives.
, dancing like the wind, harvesting the heads of the Tatar cavalry.
After chasing for three to four hundred steps, Xiao Ruxun ordered to stop the pursuit when they saw that they were not far from the Tatar army's position. However, they did not return to the formation immediately. Instead, they took out their bows and arrows and pointed at the fleeing Tatars.
The army shot several rounds of arrows and knocked down more than a dozen people, then turned their horses back and returned in triumph.
"Brother Xiao is really the reincarnation of Zhao Zilong, I admire him so much." Su Hao urged his horse to go towards Xiao Ruxun, and praised with clasped fists from a distance.
"Haha, your little skill makes Gai Zhi laugh." Xiao Ruxun laughed and accepted Su Hao's compliment. His martial arts was inherited from his family. A spear can defeat dozens of heroes. Su Hao didn't praise him very much.
Too much.
"This is my first time seeing cavalry fighting. It's really exciting." Su Hao said with emotion, "I've always heard that the Tatar cavalry are extremely brave, but in front of Brother Xiao, they are just a bunch of chickens and dogs.
Well."
Xiao Ruxun shook his hand and said: "In fact, this is all your fault. If your firearms had not frightened the Tatars out of courage, our attack would not have been so smooth. We fought with five hundred people.
Brother Yu has done this before with the two thousand Tatars, but it was only a draw. This is the first time Brother Yu has seen something like this where the opponent collapsed at the first touch."
"I really want to know what the expression on Jili Rabbit's face is now. I guess it doesn't look good." Su Hao said with a smile.
Just as Su Hao said, the face of the powerful rabbit at this time was as gloomy as if it was going to rain. He saw clearly the defeat of the Tatar cavalry just now. Two thousand people were chased and beaten by five hundred people. There was no way to fight back.
This has never happened before in the history of the rabbit leading troops to fight.
When Xiao Ruxun was chasing the remaining Tatar soldiers, Jilitu did not send troops to respond or counterattack, because when the team was defeated, if the team behind them came up to meet them, they would only be dispersed by their own defeated troops, causing an even greater rout.
Zhuli Rabbit also knew that Xiao Ruxun could not chase him all the way to his position. After all, the Ming army only had 500 riders, and Zhuli Rabbit still had 6,000 men.
The reason for the defeat of the former army was also known to Jingli Rabbit. Fighting requires a lot of energy. Once the opponent's energy is dampened, there will be no fighting ability at all. Jingli Rabbit asked himself, and felt that even if he led the team in this battle, he would probably be defeated at that point.
Collapse, the fire network at the front of the Ming army was really outrageous.
"The big leader. The general is incompetent. Please punish the big leader!"
The two captains who fled back in embarrassment came to Zhulitu with many scars. They knelt down and apologized to Litu. The other two captains had died under the gunfire of the Ming army during the charge.
.
"Trash, you still have the nerve to come back!" Zhuli Rabbit raised his riding crop and whipped the two people on their heads and faces. The two captains knelt on the ground and did not dare to cover their heads with their hands, so they could only let Zhuli Rabbit whip their heads and faces.
Bloody and bloody.
"Captain, please calm down. Victory and defeat are natural for military strategists. We cannot blame the two captains. Considering that they are all injured, please forgive them, sir!" The generals under Zhu Litu stepped forward one after another. plead.
These two captains were actually miserable enough. They themselves were wounded and most of their soldiers were lost. You know, the soldiers in the Tatar army are all captains and centurions' private soldiers. The soldiers were lost. , they became mere commanders and lost all power. Looking at the miserable situation of their colleagues, those generals who had not yet gone to war felt a little sad.
When Zhu Litu whipped the two thousand-man captains, he actually meant to forgive them. Otherwise, he would have ordered the two men to behead their heads in public. Four thousand-man troops went to the battle and came back defeated. The responsibility really does not lie with them. If the general must be investigated, I am afraid that the main reason was Jianlitu's own underestimation of the enemy.
"Get out of here!" Zhu Litu put away his whip and kicked each of the two captains on the buttocks. As if they were granted amnesty, the two captains kowtowed repeatedly in thanks, and were then helped down by their own soldiers to heal their wounds.
"Big Chief, look at this..." Weiyun and Saihan came forward timidly, not knowing how to speak.
"The weapons of the Ming army are so powerful, why didn't you inform this leader in advance?" Julitu began to mobilize troops to investigate.
"Big leader, I reminded you..." Saihan said.
Zhulitu's eyes widened: "How did you remind me? Did you say that the Ming army's artillery can hit eight hundred paces?"
"This... villain doesn't know." Saihan whispered, feeling aggrieved at the same time. I really can't blame him for this, because he himself has never seen such an artillery with a range of 800 steps.
"You can't even inquire about this. If it weren't for your incompetence, how could our Tatar tribe suffer such a defeat? Go back and tell Kuaibai that he must compensate for the losses of our army!" Zhulitu said.
Yiyun's eyelids twitched and he couldn't help but ask: "I wonder what kind of compensation the big leader wants."
Zhulitu pointed at Pinglu City with his horsewhip and said: "After Pinglu City is captured, the area formerly under Pinglu City's jurisdiction will belong to our department."
"This matter... I won't be able to decide in the end." Kuaiyun secretly complained in his heart. Not only was Pinglusuo's coal mine and greenhouses jealous, Kuaibai was also jealous. Previously, Kuaiyun had heard Kuaibai talk about it. After taking Pinglu City, he went through various arrangements, including how to carve up coal mines and greenhouses. Jilitu wanted Kuaibai to cede Pinglu City, which was almost equivalent to asking Kuaibai to cut his flesh. This kind of thing, Kuai Yun Dare to agree.
However, Zhulitu had originally planned to rob Pinglu City's coal mines and greenhouses, but now he just found a more suitable reason. Hearing Yiyun's excuse, he smiled coldly and said: "In that case, Then I would like to trouble you, General Laogui, to ask Prince Kuai what he wants first. If Prince Kuai refuses to agree to my leader’s conditions, you can go and get Pinglu City yourself, as I, the leader, are going back to Huamachi.”
"But...if Pinglu City is not taken down, this Huamachi..." Kuiyun was a little anxious. Hearing what Litu meant, he wanted to give up his choice. It's okay to give up his choice. You have to return the Huamachi, right? Is there any sense in not working after getting paid first?
Zhulitu said: "Look, our army has lost four thousand men. This is all because you concealed the strength of the Ming army's firearms. You can take back Huamachi and ask Prince Yi to make up for it with four thousand men." The cavalry, including their horses, this great leader will immediately withdraw from the border wall. I will not care about the matters between you and the Ming Kingdom."
"Captain, calm down, calm down." Seeing Li Tu and Yi Yun getting more and more anxious as they talked, Ma Zhengguo and Sai Han quickly stepped forward to persuade them.
Saihan said: "Big Chief, we will report your request to Prince Kuai right away. I believe Prince Kuai will definitely consider the Big Leader's loss. At present, the Ming army has not been defeated yet. Should we defeat the enemy first? It won’t be too late to discuss these other matters after we capture Pinglu City.”
Zhulitu flatly refused: "When you win Pinglu City and you have nothing to worry about, you may cross the river and burn the bridge. If you don't admit it, my leader doesn't want to suffer this loss. Come here!"
"Here we are!" Several of the soldiers of the Rabbit came forward and responded.
"Pass my order to the entire army and return to the camp first," Zhuli Rabbit said.
"What? No fighting today?" Yiyun was dumbfounded. Zhonglitu still had 6,000 cavalrymen who had not participated in the battle, and more than 1,000 people had escaped, adding up to more than 7,000 troops. If organized well, they could break through The Ming army's position should be promising. If we don't fight at this time, wouldn't it give the Ming army one more day to prepare?
Zhu Litu said: "I have to wait for Prince Kuai's reply first. Only if Prince Kuai agrees to my request can I let my warriors fight to the death. Otherwise, you can take down Lu City yourself. Here and there, send the order to the class!"
After giving the order, Zhulitu ignored Yiyun. He got on his horse and left on his own. The Tatar cavalry had long lost their fighting spirit. After receiving the order from the squadron, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and set off as a team, returning to the camp. .
"General, why are these Tatars like this? They change the things they agreed to, do they still have any credibility?" Ma Zhengguo watched the Tatar cavalry walk away, and couldn't help complaining to Yiyun in annoyance.
"Nonsense, Tatars are the most trustworthy people. It's just that this Rabbit is a Tatar scum. It's you Han people who are not trustworthy and have created such immoral firearms!" Yiyun directed all his evil fire at Ma Zhengguo. , he himself is a Tatar. Ma Zhengguo said that Tatars are untrustworthy, but Lian Yiyun and Saihan both scolded him.
"Yes... the general made a mistake. Please forgive me, general." Ma Zhengguo then realized that he had said the wrong thing and apologized quickly.
"Why don't you quickly organize your team and go back!" Kuaiyun scolded, "Are we still going to stay here and wait for Xiao Ruxun to attack us?"
"Yes!" Ma Zhengguo agreed and organized the Ningxia Army. Jilitu led the troops and left. It was meaningless for them to stay here anymore. The Tatar defeat also severely damaged the morale of the Ningxia Army. If this When the Ming army launches an attack, I'm afraid that their thousands of Ningxia troops will be unable to fight back.
"General, this rabbit is greedy and is threatening us." Saihan stepped forward and whispered to Yiyun.
Yiyun sneered and said: "What he said nicely, why wait for the prince's reply? He was obviously defeated this time. He didn't have the guts to fight again and wanted to go back to rest for a few days. This fool, there were obviously ten thousand cavalry, but he only sent Four thousand people rushed into the battle, only to be beaten to a pulp, and they tried to pin the blame on us."
Saihan nodded: "What the general said is very true, and the last general can also see it. However, it is true that the rabbit wants to capture Pinglu City. I am worried that if he does not agree to his conditions, he will really They are unwilling to help us capture Xiao Ruxun."
Kuaiyun said: "I have told my adoptive father about this before. Zhuli Rabbit is a greedy man. If we ask him to help us in the battle, we are afraid that we will only drive the tigers to devour the wolves, but we may end up being attacked by the tigers instead."
"At this time, we can only take one step at a time. General, according to the opinion of the last general, we should report to Prince Yi and agree to Litu's conditions for the time being. I heard that the imperial army has arrived in Shaanxi. If we can't Solve the matter in Pinglu City as soon as possible, otherwise things may change over time." Saihan advised.
Yiyun sighed: "That's all we can do. Saihan, you immediately take my letter to Ningxia City, meet my adoptive father, tell him that you are great, and you must ask him to agree to Litu's conditions for the time being, and urge Litu to Send troops to pacify Pinglu City."
