In the northwest region of the Western Region, on the border grassland bordering Dayuzi of the Kazakh Khanate.
Lu Wanxi was wearing armor, carrying a bow and a musket on his back, and a saber on his waist. He stood on a hill with a telescope and carefully searched for traces of the enemy.
"It's true, Mr. Guo. Although we have retired from the army, we are still soldiers of the Ming Dynasty. They only arranged for us to resist the enemy's intrusion and attack on the border. This killing is not pleasant at all."
Lu Wanxi was surrounded by more than a dozen similarly dressed people, all of whom were retired Ming Dynasty soldiers. After receiving Yang Yun's recruitment order, they quickly returned to the team and were then assigned to patrol the border and resist the intrusion and attack of the Kazakh cavalry.
Securing borders.
"Isn't that right~"
"This isn't a war at all. The suppression of horse bandits back then was much more enjoyable than this."
"These Kazakh cavalry can only be a group of one or two hundred people at most. They are not satisfying to kill at all. They are not enough to fill our teeth. It was still as exciting as the battle back then."
"Twenty thousand people fighting against hundreds of thousands of Kazakh cavalry, it's a real pleasure to kill."
"Isn't it? It's just like chopping melons and vegetables, it's so exciting!"
"Now I can only watch others eating meat on the border, but at least I can pick up some leftovers, which is not bad. At least we brothers can get together and fight side by side again."
"Haha, Lao Li, you have gained weight. How are you doing now?"
"It's not bad, my wife and kids are on the hot bed, and my days are leisurely and comfortable, but I always miss the days with my old brothers."
"Me too. After I was discharged from the army, I always felt less comfortable than when I was in the army. Now I feel much more comfortable."
A dozen people chatted and looked around with binoculars, looking for traces of the enemy.
"There is a situation~"
At this time, someone shouted excitedly, and everyone quickly looked in the direction he pointed.
I saw a group of Kazakh cavalry, about one hundred in number, happily driving cattle, sheep and horses back to the west. There were four-wheeled carriages beside them, some of which were filled with women and children.
, some four-wheeled carriages are filled with all kinds of things.
Obviously, this was a group of Kazakh cavalry that entered the Western Regions to plunder.
"Hmph~"
"Disturbing my border, killing my border residents, and robbing my property, you should be killed!"
Lu Wanxi snorted coldly, then put away his telescope and ordered: "Prepare to fight, leave no one behind, kill them all."
After saying that, he took the lead on horseback and rushed towards the group of Kazakh cavalry. Behind him, more than a dozen people followed with howling, their horses hooves galloping, crazy with excitement.
"These people of the Ming Dynasty are really rich. They are just a dozen families of herdsmen. They have robbed so many cattle, sheep and horses, as well as a lot of things. The food alone weighs several thousand kilograms, and all kinds of other things.
Ironware, pots and pans, the Ming Dynasty’s wealth is truly well-deserved!”
"Isn't that right? We are all herders. We are poor and they are rich."
"Now I'll make a fortune."
"And the women from the Ming Dynasty are all so beautifully dressed."
"I heard that the cities of the Ming Dynasty are more prosperous. If we can attack the next Ming Dynasty town, we will really make a fortune."
Here, the Kazakh cavalry drove cattle, sheep and horses, excitedly discussing their harvest.
The wealth of the Ming people left a deep impression on them. They were also nomadic herdsmen several times. The herdsmen of the Ming Dynasty were very rich, but they were very poor.
When they were searching for things, they were all dumbfounded. Just the various utensils used for cooking in the house dazzled them.
"kill!"
Just as they were talking excitedly, Lu Wanxi rushed towards them at the lead, and his roar resounded through the sky, instantly shocking the Kazakh cavalry.
"The Ming Cavalry~"
Seeing Lu Wanxi and others, the Kazakh cavalry was immediately frightened and shouted.
Although there were only a dozen Ming cavalry who rushed over, and there were more than a hundred of them, which gave them a numerical advantage, the legend about the Ming cavalry has always been hanging over the Kazakhs like a nightmare.
"Keng~"
One after another, scimitars were drawn out one after another, and the clanking sound of iron weapons could not be heard. One after another, figures rushed towards him like bullets being discharged.
"Kill~"
"Wow la la~"
The two sides roared angrily, urging their horses to kill each other.
Lu Wanxi was like a sharp sword, rushing forward fiercely towards the Kazakh cavalry camp. Behind him, more than a dozen cavalrymen, like thousands of troops, were astonishing. Facing an enemy ten times their size, they showed no signs of showing any signs of movement.
He was afraid and showed no sign of hesitation or flinching.
The two sides seemed to be violently slapped together by a surging wave. They passed by in a flash, and figures fell off the horses one after another. Their blood flowed to the ground.
"Huh~"
Lu Wanxi turned around, took a deep breath, and looked at the scratch on the armor on his chest. If it weren't for the armor, he would have fallen down just now.
"kill!"
Then, without hesitation, he charged towards the enemy again.
"Escape~"
"Let's go~"
"These Ming people are simply possessed by demons and are basically immortal."
"Escape~"
After just a few confrontations, Lu Wanxi and his team killed more than half of the opponent's people one after another. The group of Kazakh cavalry finally collapsed and fled towards the west without looking back.
It's really terrible.
Dozens of people on one side died, but no one on the other side died. Only a few people were knocked off their horses, but they quickly got back on their horses as if nothing had happened.
This is the Ming Dynasty cavalry, the cavalry that is rumored to be invincible in the world!
They were so frightened by the killing that they no longer had the courage to fight with these Ming cavalry.
Not long ago, they were herdsmen grazing on the grasslands. They were also human beings. Although they were a people on horseback, compared with these Ming cavalry who had received formal training and were armed to the teeth, the gap was really huge.
"Don't let anyone go!"
They wanted to escape, but Lu Wanxi had no intention of letting them go. Every one of them was a meritorious deed, and every one of them was stained with the blood of the Ming Dynasty. If they dared to invade the Ming Dynasty, they would not be allowed to go back.
"Yes~"
The people in the team quickly replied, and then distributed them in a very orderly manner, each chasing a few.
"Hey~"
Lu Wanxi chased on horseback, while bending his bow and shooting arrows. He shot down one person with one arrow, and then fired several more arrows. Lu Wanxi chased several people and quickly killed them all.
"Old Wang, your archery skills are still as ugly as before."
After completing his mission, Lu Wanxi couldn't help but laugh loudly at his teammates.
Looking at the others, they were all similar to Lu Wanxi. They were skilled in bow and horse, and the horses they rode were all good horses. After a chase, they quickly cleared away their targets.
Even the 'Old Wang' in Lu Wanxi's mouth completed his mission after shooting a few more arrows.
"Haha, Lao Wang, you can't ejaculate well. Is it because you have lost strength in serving your wives at home?"
"Everyone still doesn't know about Lao Wang's condition. He probably won't be able to draw his bow anymore."
"I can't help it. There are more than a dozen women in his house. Who among you can handle it?"
Listening to the voices of his teammates, Lao Wang immediately turned grim: "Damn~ I just added a few more arrows, you guys hacked me out."
"Haha~"
When everyone heard this, they immediately laughed happily again.
He came to the four-wheeled carriage, rescued the people in the carriage, and casually began to inquire about the situation in detail, hoping to see if he could get some useful information from it.
Scenes like this are constantly happening on the borders of the Western Region and the Hezhong region.
The Kazakh Khanate's method of using small groups of cavalry to disperse raids and intrusions to mobilize the Ming army, thereby exhausting the Ming cavalry, and then waiting for opportunities to annihilate the Ming cavalry also suffered heavy losses.
According to the Ming Dynasty system, Australian Grand Duke Yang Yun recruited veterans according to law to form the local defense line when facing foreign invasion, and then recruited young men and women to form the second line of local defense.
On the one hand, we strengthen patrols to detect the intruding Kazakh cavalry and eliminate them in time. On the other hand, we also minimize our own losses and can transfer people and property in a timely manner.
After such a set of methods, the Hux cavalry invaded the Daming River, and the plan of the Western Region was completely bankrupt. At the same time, a large number of cavalry were permanently left in the territory of the Ming Dynasty.
These retired soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were once the best warriors and received rigorous training. As long as they are recruited, they can be sent to the battlefield immediately. They will not be much worse than the Ming Dynasty army currently in service.
It is difficult to break through the first line of defense composed of thousands of veterans. It is very difficult. The Kazakh cavalry is broken into pieces, and they are also broken into pieces. In small-scale battles, they are not Ming cavalry at all.
opponents, as for large-scale battles, that's even less so.
In Yili, under the command of Yang Yun, Duke of Australia, Yang Yun is carefully analyzing the offensive intentions of the Kazakh Khanate.
"In the middle of the river, on the border between the Western Region and the Kazakh Khanate, there are Kazakh cavalry everywhere. They are not large in scale, but in extremely large numbers. They are constantly intruding on the border of our Ming Dynasty in small groups and plundering our border residents."
"What exactly are their intentions?"
"Do you want to defeat our Ming Dynasty with this method?"
"Isn't this bringing food to us?"
Yang Yun frowned and thought carefully. The situation in front of him was somewhat confusing to him.
He could not understand Mulundekh Khan's purpose.
"A large number of scattered small-scale robberies must have some purpose, but what is their purpose?"
Beside Yang Yun, Huo Ying thought for a while and said.
"Their goal is definitely not to plunder those properties or anything like that. They are scattered intrusions, and they cannot pose a threat to our town. When I was a student in the academy, I said that the purpose of a feint attack is to either cover up the main attack, or to lure the enemy into action."
"Luring the enemy into action?"
"Haha, I understand. They definitely want to lure our Ming Dynasty's main cavalry out, and then want to annihilate our Ming Dynasty's main army in one fell swoop."
"I'm afraid their teeth are not that good and they want to annihilate our main force. It's just a dream."
"Mulundekh Khan must have been relying on and prepared, and it also shows that their main army must be waiting near the border."
"In this case, I will use my plan to lure you out and annihilate you in one fell swoop!"
