Suddenly, chaos broke out among the Jianlu and Mongolian coalition forces.
At the beginning, I didn’t know which tribe it was, or rather, several tribes started it together.
"The Ming army has more troops than us, how can we fight?"
"The Ming army is well-equipped, what should we use to fight?"
"The Ming army is too powerful. Anyone who cannot be defeated will be killed!"
"Run away quickly, there is no chance if you don't escape!"
"If the Ming army doesn't kill the poor herdsmen, they won't have to die!"
"..."
The shouts came one after another, and the people who called them, to be precise, were ordinary herdsmen wearing gray robes. They took the lead in turning their horses' heads, either running north, east, or south, anyway.
Not rushing westward.
The Mongolian tribal army, which was originally tensed when looking at the powerful Ming cavalry on the opposite side, was suddenly in chaos after being attacked like this.
If there are only one or two people who affect the morale of the army, or in other words, they only exist in a certain tribe, then they will have no impact on the army that is about to start the decisive battle at this time!
But the problem is that there are more than one or two herders who are shouting and disrupting the morale of the army, and they are not from a certain tribe, but there are such people among ordinary herdsmen in almost every tribe.
At this time, the army had just begun to ride on horseback and had not even begun to run. With such a sudden chaos, the others who had finally been able to hold their breath were instantly discouraged.
When the clan leaders of each tribe saw this situation, it was not that they didn't want to stop it, but for a while, it was impossible to suppress this sudden situation.
As those people began to flee in all directions, they immediately led the people around them to flee with them.
If it is a general war, there will be a war team behind the army, and the nobles will also be behind.
But this time, facing the powerful Ming army, it was a last-ditch battle for the coalition forces. Jierhalang and others rushed to the front to boost the morale of the army. The nobles of each tribe also risked their lives.
To rush ahead is also to boost the morale of the clan.
Otherwise, facing such an advantageous Ming army, who among the ordinary herdsmen would dare to directly confront them?
However, it is really unthinkable that these ordinary herdsmen would suddenly cause trouble at such a critical moment!
It's like a dam blocking floods. It only opens a small opening, and finally "crash", the opening gets bigger and bigger, and then breaks.
The coalition forces that were about to counterattack suddenly collapsed and fled in all directions because of the trouble caused by the herdsmen.
On this grassland, the rumble of horse hooves is still ringing.
The Ming Cavalry is like red waves, rushing forward one after another, and the speed is getting faster and faster!
But on the Jianlu and Mongolian coalition sides, it is no longer a front, but an extremely exaggerated jagged front;
Those determined Jianlu or Mongolians rushed in front, and then looked back in shock to find that the cavalry behind them were all fleeing for their lives, leaving them alone in front.
Fortunately, there is no such situation on the Jianlu side. However, on both sides of the Jianlu army, the Mongolian tribes have already been in chaos.
If you look from the sky to the ground at this time, you can see the Ming Cavalry Army, like a piece of red cloth covering the grassland, rolling forward.
As for the Jianlu and Mongolian coalition forces, it was like a piece of cloth being cut off piece by piece, leaving holes one after another.
Just as the two armies were beginning to clash, something like this happened suddenly, and one can imagine the huge impact!
Jierhalang was charging resolutely, but when he saw this sudden situation, his face turned ashen!
Originally, the hope of victory in the Battle of the Cauldron was very slim, but with the pig teammates doing this, even that slim hope was completely wiped out!
In this battle, the coalition forces were defeated without a fight; in the end, it will inevitably affect the Jinzhou War!
Even if the war in Jinzhou is won and the grassland becomes the sphere of influence of the Ming army, the Ming cavalry can attack the Qing Dynasty from the flanks of the Qing Dynasty at any time. Even if the Qing Dynasty is undefeated, it will still be defeated!
At this time, Jierhalang had accumulated all his strength and planned to fight to the death. However, before the battle started, he found that he had vomiting and diarrhea, and he lost the battle before he fought!
Thinking of the inevitable consequences, thinking of losing this battle so cowardly, Jierhalang couldn't help but sigh, his face turned pale, he turned the sword in his hand, and wanted to commit suicide to apologize!
His personal guards saw it and quickly stepped forward to stop him.
Nikan, who was following him, even shouted loudly: "Your Highness, keep the green hills and don't worry about running out of firewood! You must not die!"
If you die, who will take the blame for this battle?
After being shouted by Nikan, Jierhalang looked up at the Ming army, whose horse speed was getting faster and faster. He suddenly shouted: "Batulu of the Qing Dynasty, follow me and charge!"
Before he finished shouting, he clamped the horse's belly heavily, drove the horse to jump out, and rushed towards the Ming army crazily.
Nikan, who originally wanted to withdraw, was very surprised when he saw it. He looked at Jierhalang's lonely back and saw Jierhalang's personal guards following up, covering up Jierhalang's back. Suddenly, he also followed.
He raised his arms and shouted: "Batulu of the Qing Dynasty, charge!"
Even though we lost this battle, we still had to pull a few Ming troops to back us up!
When most of the Jianlu soldiers saw their leader Heshuo Prince Zheng charging towards an enemy that was several times their size, many of them got excited and rushed forward.
"kill……"
The two armies were about to engage in battle soon, and shouts of death began.
Looking at the Ming cavalry that was becoming clearer and clearer in front of them, Jierhalang, who was charging at the front, had already been surpassed by his bodyguards.
At this time, he looked back, and his heart suddenly felt cold.
As far as the coalition forces are concerned, even if he is Prince Heshuo of the Qing Dynasty and leads the charge, he can't move those pig teammates. On the tribal army side, there are basically only a few people following him in the charge.
Of the 100,000 coalition troops, only less than 20,000 men and horses at most followed the charge. Among them, they were basically only members of the Qing army and the Horqin tribe!
Jierhalang, who had always been wiser, was suddenly filled with resentment. He had never been so resentful in his life. He looked up at the blue sky, silently shouting or accusing: pig teammates, pig teammates, pig teammates
ah!
In the next life, never have pig teammates again!
"kill……"
The cavalry charge was getting closer and closer.
The situation on the side of the Jianlu and Mongolian coalition forces is like giving the Ming Dynasty cavalry a shot of blood. At this time, no one is afraid of death. In their eyes, all they have is military merit!
"kill……"
Closer, closer.
Suddenly, intensive gunshots rang out on the battlefield.
"Bah, bah, bah..."
This was the sound of the cavalry's flintlock muskets issued to the Han cavalry firing. Regardless of whether it was fired or not, they all raised their sabers and began to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
"kill……"
The lines of the Jianlu and Mongolian coalition forces were sparse and had no thickness at all.
The officers and soldiers of the Ming Army completely broke out of their line after just one round of hedging;
On the contrary, the Jianlu and Mongolian coalition forces were hedging, but they found that they were greeted by huge waves one after another. Even if they were lucky enough to survive the first wave, they would not have time to breathe, and the third wave came again.
The second huge wave!
In short, one huge wave followed another, and soon they were all wiped out.
Li Dingguo, who was charging past, reined in his horse and stopped, then turned around and took a look. He found that his enemy had been completely wiped out.
At this time, his personal guard said to him excitedly: "Just now, the Marquis seemed to have killed a slave chief who built the captives!"
Another bodyguard heard this and quickly echoed: "Looking like that, it seems to be King Duoluo of Jianlu!"
Li Dingguo listened, but he didn't care at all. It was as if the Jianlu he had killed just now was just an ordinary Jianlu. He turned to look ahead and saw the Mongolians fleeing on the grassland, so he ordered
Said: "Give me the order again. The one with the white cloth on his arm is one of our own!"
This battle was won much more easily than imagined, thanks to the Mongolian soldiers that Master Du sent to the grassland before. Although he had given orders before the battle, Li Dingguo was afraid that his men would be jealous and accidentally killed these soldiers who had made great achievements.
The generals once again emphasized the army.
His bodyguard heard this and immediately obeyed the order.
At this time, it was completely a chase on the grassland.
Under banners with Chinese characters, groups of Ming cavalry troops were chasing away the fleeing Mongols; just like wolves chasing sheep, and there were more wolves than sheep!
It was not until the evening, when the sunset dyed the western sky red, that the Ming army officers and soldiers who pursued them returned with the prisoners in groups.
Every Ming army officer is smiling!
I really didn’t expect that this battle would be so easy!
The battlefield of the battle has also been cleaned up, and all the results of the battle have finally been gathered under the commander's flag and into the hands of Li Dingguo and Li Ruolian.
More than 1,100 soldiers of the Ming army were killed and more than 800 injured in the battle; mainly they died in the confrontation with Jianlu.
As for the harvest, it is huge.
The entire Jianlu army was wiped out, including their Heshuo Prince Jierhalang and Duoluo Prince Nikan. The people of the eastern Mongolian tribe captured more than 60,000 people and killed less than 3,000 people. The rest were still
They were escaped, but they were just scattered, not in a group.
If anyone escapes in a group, they will be heavily pursued by the Ming Dynasty cavalry, and it will be impossible to run away!
Looking at this result, Li Ruolian immediately laughed and said: "The construction speed of the railway to Guihua City will be much faster now!"
At this, Li Dingguo just smiled, and then ordered to send 10,000 cavalry troops to escort the prisoners back to Guihua City. The remaining approximately 100,000 cavalry troops continued to advance eastward, sweeping across eastern Mongolia and flanking Jianlu's flanks, powerfully
Support the Liaodong war!
From now on, the grassland will be the grassland of Ming Dynasty!
