The robbers from Tsarist Russia vividly illustrated the scene of collapse in battle.
The Tsarist Russian cavalry in the rear didn't even care that turning around meant death. They just had to turn around, turn around, and run away to escape the death that was coming from the front.
Some Tsarist Russian soldiers ran first, leading other Tsarist Russian soldiers to follow immediately. However, there were still some Tsarist Russian soldiers who charged inertly.
As a result, before the Ming Dynasty cavalry could reach them, the line formed by the Tsarist Russian army was like a castle made of sand, falling apart and falling into chaos.
Gushi Khan looked dumbfounded from behind. This battle situation was definitely beyond his imagination.
After the confrontation between the Jungar cavalry army and the Ming army, the front lines of the Ming army were indeed a little sparse. However, the Ming army quickly made up for it, and the Ming army's charge line was still dense.
He broke through Jungar's defense line and continued to fight towards him.
However, the defense line of the Tsarist Russian cavalry collapsed and did not counteract the Ming cavalry at all, leaving the Ming cavalry to continue charging almost intact.
Originally, Gushi Khan had the highest hopes for the Tsarist Russian cavalry among the allied forces. It had the highest degree of firearms and could effectively kill the Ming army, so he expected the Tsarist Russian army to kill more Ming armies.
The result was not bad, he was so timid that he was not even as good as an ordinary tribal army. He was really disappointed!
Of course he didn't know that the Tsarist Russian army was here to rob, and it was their nature to bully the weak and fear the strong.
For the weak tribes and the tribes they can defeat, they will show a very tough side; however, once they have to face powerful enemies and invincible enemies, the toughest ones are often the most cowardly.
of.
Not to mention, the leader of this Tsarist Russian army was actually just a peasant, who got rich and then went bankrupt, and wanted to go to the East to plunder and make a fortune. He was not a soldier with a military background at all.
Of course, the most fundamental reason why Gushi Khan was dumbfounded was that he confirmed that the row after row of charging Ming troops in the distance were definitely genuine Ming troops. They were endless and their strength far exceeded his imagination!
This is really a clever calculation by the authorities, but they don’t know that human calculations are not as good as God’s calculations!
No matter how Gushi Khan planned and concealed his intentions, the Ming Dynasty, with its own strength, did not take much time to recover Liaodong. The cavalry itself returned to Guihua City.
What's more, because the Ming Dynasty adopted new strategies and treated ordinary people in the grasslands well, the soldiers of the Ming army who were born in the grasslands saw their happy life in the future, and saw their hometown like the south of the Yangtze River, which would never be allowed to be destroyed by invaders.
Their combat effectiveness did not need to be mobilized in front of the army, but they took the initiative to exert their maximum combat effectiveness.
Under such circumstances, it can only be said that Gushi Khan still viewed this war with an old perspective, which was the fundamental reason for his failure!
Of course, this cannot be blamed on Gushi Khan. Based on his experience, he was indeed a wise and powerful Khan. Not only did he lead Wasi to become powerful, he also established a huge khanate on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
To blame, I can only blame Ming for opening up a technology lag. This lag, which he never dreamed of, not only caused a qualitative change in Ming's military, but also affected all aspects of Ming.
Shihan, it is impossible to dream of it!
Seeing the defeated situation, the soldiers of the Yarkand Khanate did not need their Great Khan to give orders, and naturally they did not have the leader of the Bird Alliance, Gushi Khan. They all turned their horses and started to escape.
The best strategy in the Thirty-six is to run. If you don't run at this time, you will be charged by the Ming army, and you are guaranteed to be finished!
Even in Gushi Khan's own army of the Kashote Khanate, many people were afraid and began to turn around and run away!
Gushi Khan's face was very ugly, but he had no other choice but to escape first.
All the intentions of planning, attacking on multiple fronts, concealing the main force's intentions, etc., all disappeared at this time, and the only thought was to escape!
However, the Ming army charged towards them at the highest horse speed. However, if the rear army of the Western Tribe Alliance wanted to escape, they had to turn around first, and also asked their accomplices behind them to also escape together and increase their horse speed.
You can escape quickly.
However, the soldiers in the rear army did not have unified military orders, so there must be a distinction in the order of escape. In fact, the soldiers in the east were the easiest to see the power of the Ming army and fled first, while the soldiers in the back were the first to flee.
The line of sight was blocked, and there were more people, so even if they ran away, they would be a few beats slower. As a result, the rear army of the entire western tribal coalition wanted to escape, but it was also very confusing, and it was impossible to pick up the horse speed at once.
Just like that, the Ming army's forwards rushed into the scattered coalition rear army like an arrow from a string, and continued to kill the enemy in front of them like a devastating blow.
"kill……"
The first Ming Army line slowed down because it killed the enemy. The following Ming Army line became a new Ming Army line and entered the enemy's line again. In short, the attack of the Ming Cavalry Army was like a wave.
One after another, they are attacking continuously and continuously.
Sun Chuanting was on the top of the city, observing the battlefield further and further away with his binoculars.
Defeating the enemy is a matter of course before the war begins.
His first purpose was to ensure that the farmland and water conservancy behind him would not be destroyed by the war; his second purpose was to eliminate as many invading western tribal coalition forces as possible.
The war has been going on till now, and the result has almost come out.
Sun Chuanting's first goal was far easier to achieve than he imagined. Of course, the preparations he made before the war, including his desire to evacuate the people on the Hetao Plain, could not be said to be in vain.
Any general who is victorious always thinks about defeat before thinking about victory. This is the case with Gushi Khan, and the same is true with Sun Chuanting.
The worst-case scenario did not occur, which is the best thing. Although it took a lot of trouble, it actually reflected the court's love for the people. It was also this that inspired the people on the Hetao Plain to spontaneously lead horses
Armed with a bow, he must defend his hometown.
Relatively speaking, Gushi Khan was unlucky. The results he encountered were far worse than the worst-case scenario he imagined!
At this time, Sun Chuanting looked at the fleeing place in the distance, only thinking about his second target.
What we can see through the telescope is that there are about 40,000 coalition troops from the western tribes, fleeing to the west.
On the Ming army's side, the charging cavalry was beginning to run out of strength, and its speed inevitably slowed down.
However, Sun Chuanting did not panic, he just raised his head and ordered: "Attack!"
The messenger next to him received the military order and immediately relayed the order.
Then another group of Ming cavalry troops began to attack.
This group of Ming cavalry is obviously different from the cavalry that charged before. They are all one man and two horses. From the appearance, it can be basically seen that most of these cavalry are Mongolian cavalry officers.
This is the light cavalry that Sun Chuanting had prepared a long time ago. One man has two horses. If he changes horses without changing men, he can pursue the fastest and the pursuit distance can be long. As for how many enemies can be chased and killed in the end, it depends on how many enemies are lucky enough.
!
As this group of about 20,000 light cavalry set off, the soldiers who had moved out their horses began to clean the battlefield. Among them, there were many female soldiers, who were very conspicuous.
On the battlefield, the bodies of men and horses lay on the ground, and the grassland was dyed red with blood.
Most of those who fell on the ground were Western Tribe Alliance troops wearing gray robes. Of course, there were also a small number of people wearing red mandarin duck robes. They were Ming army officers and soldiers at first glance, so it was easy to distinguish them.
Those soldiers who clean the battlefield first help the female soldiers to treat their comrades. If they are still alive, they are bandaged immediately; if they are soldiers who died in battle, they are also carried aside to confirm their identities and so on.
As for the enemies in gray robes, the dead ones had their weapons taken away, the half-dead ones were directly beaten to death, and the ones with minor injuries were concentrated and detained...
Although the battle lines were far away, the entire battlefield was still busy.
In the rear area, more than 200,000 people gathered in familiar groups. Waiting for the enemy to come over, they will meet the enemy and defend their hometown.
Hearing the movement from the direction of the battlefield, the rumbling of horse hooves, and the shouts of killing, the young people and women all became nervous. But even so, they were not afraid.
Because they know that if they are afraid and retreat, their homes will be destroyed by the enemy! This is something they will never allow!
The older Minzhuang was much simpler, just quietly arranging his weapons and calming his horses.
I don’t know how long it took, but the shouts of death gradually disappeared, and even the sound of horse hooves became quieter and became farther and farther away.
These Minzhuangs began to show surprised expressions one by one, and discussions began among acquaintances.
"What's going on? The war ahead is over?"
"Yeah, it seems we won the battle!"
"How could it be? I can't even see the shadow of the enemy, and that's the end of it? I have my sword drawn out, and I'm ready to kill the enemy and achieve military success!"
"Didn't you say that the leader of the enemy alliance is Gushi Khan? I heard that he is a very powerful person, and there is also Baturhun Khan, who is also very powerful, that's it?"
"..."
They were all talking when they saw a horse coming from the front and arrived at Li Yan's side. Then, Li Yan sent people to pass the message to them all. Upon hearing this, many people felt that it was expected, but
There are also surprises.
As expected, the imperial officers and soldiers did win!
Unexpectedly, in this battle, the legendary and famous Gushi Khan came with his army, but nothing happened to them, and the excitement was in vain!
This war seemed to have nothing to do with them, but it had a great impact on them invisibly.
For example, the court officials, at least once in a while, love the people like their own children; there are also the court officials and soldiers who are powerful enough to protect them!
At this moment, they are proud to be the people of Ming Dynasty!
However, Emperor Chongzhen, who was far away in the capital, did not know about this situation. He was worried, so he sent the message to Song Yingxing, who was the most capable person.
