Li Zhen suddenly pointed forward and said, "Look over there!"
Ma Fu looked in the direction he pointed, and saw that the opponent's defense line was slowly retreating.
These people worked hard to build fortifications just to fight the three thousand battalion in close combat. At this time, they were defeated.
Li Zhen immediately realized that their rear was in chaos!
"It's our people!"
Ma Fu scratched his head and asked: "Our people are all surrounded, and the five battalions have not succeeded in breaking through..."
"It's not the Three Thousand Battalion, it's the people arranged by the emperor!"
Li Zhen immediately ordered: "Everyone, attack due south!"
"yes!"
Ma Fu immediately went down to deliver the order, and soon the fifth battalion launched another fierce attack.
This time, Mobei Guard's defense line was instantly defeated, and everyone fled in all directions.
Li Zhen was overjoyed and continued to charge. Finally, he saw the oncoming cavalry team.
The opponent used a wedge charge tactic, which was like a sharp bayonet thrust straight into the Mobei Guard position.
Wedge charge is the most common tactic used by the Mongols. They usually identify the weak points of the opponent's formation, and then use elite cavalry to lead the charge and tear apart the opponent's formation.
The great thing about this tactic is one word, fast!
Before the opponent could react, the second wave of charges began again.
This goes back and forth, wave after wave, and after about five rounds, the opponent's formation completely collapsed.
What followed was a unilateral massacre.
Genghis Khan relied on such a cavalry to fight from the Mongolian grasslands all the way to the Mediterranean.
Li Zhen led five battalions of men and horses forward to break out of the encirclement. Just when the two groups were about to clash, they reined in their horses at the same time.
The opponent glanced at Li Zhen's team and the big flag behind him, suddenly turned his horse's head and charged back.
Next, Li Zhen was stunned.
Ma Fu followed and asked: "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Li Zhen looked puzzled and said, "I seem to have seen Tuo Tuo Bu Hua!"
"What?"
Ma Fu was greatly puzzled. If it was Tuo Tuo Bu Hua, it stands to reason that he and the other party were in the same group.
Looking at it now, this team is obviously a friendly force, how could it be possible...
"Master, did you...did you see it wrong?"
Li Zhen shook her head slowly and said: "We fought against each other in the first battle back then. I remember his face. I can't mistake it."
Ma Fu asked: "What should we do now?"
Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat and she said: "No matter what, keep rushing!"
"yes!"
At this time, the Mobei Guards were completely defeated, and the three thousand battalions of troops easily broke out of the encirclement.
Li Zhen took the lead in charging while paying careful attention to the surrounding situation.
There were about two thousand cavalrymen of unknown origin. Their dress did not look like the regular army of the imperial court, but more like Mongolians on the grassland.
These people were very skilled in riding, and they fought in and out of the formation, fully demonstrating the advantages of cavalry.
Li Zhen was even more certain in her heart that these people were the Tatars who had no sex.
But why did they attack Mobei Wei?
Aren't they in the same group?
"Long live the Emperor!"
In a daze, Li Zhen seemed to hear a shout coming from his ears. He tensed up and listened intently...
"Long live the Emperor!"
"Long live the Emperor!"
"Long live the Emperor!"
The sound became louder and louder, as if thousands of troops and horses were shouting together, and the momentum was overwhelming.
Li Zhen was overjoyed. It turned out that the emperor personally brought people to help her rescue herself.
"Everyone, follow me and charge!"
On the battlefield, the Mobei guards gave up resistance and fled in all directions.
Li Zhen finally arrived in front of the Chinese army's formation, and then she saw a tall horse. Who else could it be if it wasn't the emperor?
Standing around the emperor were ten imperial guards. When Yuan Bin saw Li Zhen, he did not stop him, but temporarily took away the rifle in his hand.
"Your Majesty, I am too late to save you, and I will surely die!"
Li Zhen got off her horse, walked forward quickly, knelt down and saluted.
Zhu Qizhen rode on his horse and asked: "What's the current situation of the Three Thousand Battalion?"
Li Zhen said truthfully: "The rebels have built more than a dozen targeted defenses. There is also an unidentified cavalry in the north, numbering tens of thousands. I have led people to break through the encirclement several times, but they have not broken through the opponent's defense line. I...
Death!"
Zhu Qizhen looked sternly and said: "This time even I have been plotted. I can't blame you. Regroup your troops and follow me to put down the rebellion."
Li Zhen saluted: "I obey the order!"
"Wait a moment!"
Zhu Qizhen suddenly stopped him and pointed forward: "Those are our own people, don't hurt them accidentally!"
Li Zhen was puzzled, so she had to bite the bullet and said: "Your Majesty, I just saw... take off your clothes..."
"It's just Tuotuobuhua!"
Zhu Qizhen did not deny it, but said: "The matter is more complicated. I will explain it to you later."
"yes!"
Li Zhen agreed, then got on her horse and led her men into the enemy's formation again.
The Mobei Guards became more and more frightened as they fought, and soon this situation spread to other positions.
The 1234th Battalion of the 3,000th Battalion took advantage of the chaos and successfully broke through, then joined forces and continued to attack Mobei Guards.
The battle lasted from noon to dusk, and finally came to an end after sunset.
Tuotuo Buhua stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, we have killed over a thousand enemies in this battle, and there are still 3,000 people who surrendered on the spot. What should we do?"
Zhu Qizhen thought for a moment and then said: "All the officers will be beheaded, and the ordinary soldiers will be dismissed on the spot!"
Tuotuo Buhua hesitated for a moment and said, "I just made a rough count and found that there are about five hundred officers above Xiaoqi."
Zhu Qizhen said coldly: "What do you want to say?"
"Beheading them all...isn't it a bit much?"
Tuo Tuo Bu Hua is not a good person, but in his mind, fighting is not just about killing people.
On the grassland, when one tribe defeats another tribe, it is mainly through annexation rather than killing.
In the past, the Mongols went south to clear grass and valleys. In addition to plundering food and supplies, they also captured some young men and brought them back as slaves.
Because in this era, human resources are very scarce.
Now, he was a little surprised to behead 500 people at once, and they were all of high rank.
Zhu Qizhen asked: "Is it much?"
Tuotuo Buhua thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, we still have a tough battle to fight now. If these people were instigated, we might as well give them a chance to atone for their crimes."
Zhu Qizhen suddenly laughed and said: "I gave them a chance before, but from now on, I won't give them another chance."
His tone when he said this was very calm, but it made people feel creepy.
Tuotuo Buhua couldn't help but take a breath of cold air and asked again: "What does the emperor mean..."
Zhu Qizhen put away the smile on his face and said coldly: "Kill without mercy!"
"yes!"
Tuotuo Buhua did not dare to say anything anymore and ordered people to escort out all the high-ranking officers, big and small.
The bright steel knives reflected the afterglow of the setting sun, falling one after another, and blood flowed into a river.
