North.

Ablikhan finally launched.

He had to launch.

The main reason for his launch was not to receive the news that the Techina army had entered the hinterland of Zhongyuz, but to the news that the Great Yuzhan Abulbant took the initiative to go north to meet them!

He still has 20,000 standing troops in the hinterland of Zhongyuzi, and Torre, who was his former master, is now under the control of his loyal and loyal officer. There is no possibility of too many problems.

But the problem of going north by Abrembante is big.

Once Abrbant really defeats the Truchens, his reputation in the Kazakh Khanate will rise sharply, and it is not impossible to overshadow him.

After all, Abulbanti is living in Turkestan, where the palace of Kazakh Khan was previously located!

Of course, the risk of his initiative is not high. He still has tens of thousands of cavalry, the Sultan of Bala has five thousand cavalry, and the Khitan alliance that appears at any time in the north. No matter how you look at it, you will be sure to win.

When he arrived in Custana with his army, Qitad's face turned green.

The validity period of gunpowder is only three days away!

Although the sleet stopped a few days ago, the moisture in the air could not be dissipated in a short while.

Therefore, when Ablikhan led his army five miles away from Kustana, he took the initiative to attack.

As mentioned earlier, when he arrived in Custana, he set up a large camp near the east and west gates of the city. After setting up a camp, the task of guarding the camp was naturally left to the thousand dragon cavalry, and the only one that could be dispatched was two thousand Hussars.

In the past few days, his remaining 700 soldiers also arrived from the land, so one thousand more Hussars could be dispatched.

He asked Chu Huer to attack the Balah Sultan in the east with two thousand Hussars, and to attack Ablikhan with one thousand personal guards!

To this day, it has been three years since he took Xiao Yuzi, and his troops will naturally not stagnate in these three years.

In terms of equipment, the Minnie spear and rotary pistol are all equipped. In winter, it is necessary for each soldier to have a cotton armor.

The most elite thousand hussars of each brigade were equipped with half-body leather armor.

The equipment of Qitad's personal guards is even better, and each of them has an extra rotary pistol!

However, Ablikhan was able to stand out among the numerous white bones of Kazakhstan, not only with his blood and courage, but also with a large number of Persian craftsmen who spent a lot of money to invite him in his Wusun tribe.

It was these craftsmen who built a cavalry equipped with heavy armor for him!

Ablikhan's heavy cavalry are quite distinctive. They mainly use chain mail, with a small number of elite soldiers equipped with chain mail. When charging, the heavy cavalry mainly uses heavy weapons such as spears, maces, and axes.

If you encounter scattered light cavalry or infantry without spear protection, such heavy cavalry rarely have enemies when charging in dense formations.

Ablikhan also studied Qitad's record, and he was naturally aware of the tactics that he often used the advantages of firearms to cut into the enemy formation and then crossed through.

In his mind, "The musket will be fired at most twice, and then it will be a head-on battle. If I encounter the Truqin army, I will reduce the gap between the heavy cavalry and make it unable to get in. I can only face me head-on. I want to see what else can Qitade do"

A heavy armored force gathered together with silver light!

Qitad's expression solidified.

The heavy armored troops did not intend to face him head-on, but rushed towards him in an arc-shaped surround!

However, as an experienced cavalry general, when Qitade led his troops forward to fight, he also appeared in a form of pin-shaped characters at the beginning.

One thousand personal guards suddenly broke out, two thousand Hussars one left and one right.

"Remember, don't be scared by their formation. When approaching a range of two hundred meters, the cavalry in front will shoot flat with long spears, and when approaching a range of ten meters, use a rotating pistol to shoot flat with a rotating pistol..."

"What should I do if I can't get in?"

"Impossible, they have heavy weapons in their hands, and it is impossible for the two horses to get too close. At least one horse is still at a distance. After the first two rounds of musket shooting, the distance will only increase."

“What if they go around behind us?”

"The people behind us will come up and will inevitably be in a mess when we go around. It is an excellent time for piercing attack!"

Qitade led a thousand personal guards to rush out first!

In an instant, the enemy cavalry wearing a conical high-tube hat on the opposite side became clearer!

Qitad raised the Minnie spear, and at the same time, with a short sound of horns, all the hundreds of riders in front raised their spears!

"Bang..."

Qitad took the lead in pulling the trigger, aiming at a person opposite who looked like an officer.

On the high-speed horse, it is very difficult to aim at a person with a musket at this time. If it is still the smooth-bore round lead, in this case, it will not be possible to keep the lead bullet from flying.

But after the conical Minnie bullet rotates and flies in the rifled chamber over a meter long, the huge inertia will make it continue to rotate and rush towards the target in a roughly flat shooting posture.

If it is still a round lead bullet, when it hits the combination of chain mail and cotton coat, it can only hurt it at most, and cannot be shot on the spot. However, the Minnie bullet that rotates forward at a high speed is different.

If its conical head touches the chain mail, if it happens to touch the iron ring, it will cut it off without hesitation (at this time, a large number of chain mails are equipped in Central Asia and West Asia, because only humans can use enough of this kind of armor, making it easier to make in large quantities, and it can also protect the large amount of equipment here).

If you cut into the gap between the rings, you will take the opportunity to drill in. First, you will squeeze the small ring and then continue to drill in.

"Bang......"

As Qitad fired the first shot, a large array of muskets crackled!

As soon as the gunshots passed, the originally tight formation of the enemy on the opposite side immediately became loose, but at this time their distance was narrowed to only a few dozen meters!

Quickly carry the spear behind you, then hold one hand and the other hand, and the enemy has reached only ten meters away!

All this, if you don't have any training, will be impossible to achieve when facing the impact of the superior enemy and the dense heavy cavalry.

The Kazakhs had muskets a hundred years ago, but they would not use them on heavy cavalry. Therefore, when Qitad and others fired straight with Mini spear, the opponent had almost no response!

The enemy I was aiming at just now was obviously not hit, and Qitad pointed his pistol at him again!

Five meters!

Qitad could see that the mace in his hand had been raised!

"Bang..."

This time he hit it!

Then he cut in with a "punch"!

Although there are gaps in the formations of both sides, they are not as big as before. When both sides join in, the horses are in contact with each other and the sound of friction is endless!

The formation that the two sides had just rushed forward to each other came to an abrupt end!

At this time, if it is still the era of cold weapons, if the cavalry in front of one side are powerful cavalry warfare, you can peel forward one by one. Since the cavalry in front of both sides are brave, if they can quickly eliminate the opponent, they will be out of power against the light cavalry behind them.

But the current situation is completely different.

There is no legend that the cavalry on both sides shouted loudly, and the weapons in their hands were making noises. When the cavalry on both sides suddenly stopped due to the formation, Qitade and the others simply pulled out two pistols!

"Bang..."

"Bang..."

“……”

After a sound of lighter than a spear, the enemy in front of Qitade and others quickly became completely sparse.

For heavy cavalry, especially the Kazakhs who are still in semi-cold weapons and half-fire weapons, it is impossible to have heavy cavalry carry muskets and bows and arrows on their backs.

But they also had medieval short axes, bones, javelins and other objects in their hands, so although Qitad had the advantage in this aspect, there were also casualties.

After about half an hour, the silver-shining enemy in front finally couldn't see it!

Qitad rushed up again!

This time, he changed his pistol and raised his saber with his right hand.

After a "bang" shot, the light cavalry in front began to turn!

Qitade immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Ablikhan had too many cavalrymen. The heavy cavalry in the front of them were a minority, and there were a large number of tribal cavalry behind them. They had no armor and only had a sabre in their hands. But if they had been able to muster up the courage to shoot at them with the bows and arrows behind them just now, the situation would not be impressive.

But the Truchens' record of defeating heavy cavalry in a short period of time made them afraid, and the short gunfire just now exacerbated this scene.

"Kill!"

Qitad finally shouted with relief!

At this time, they no longer need to waste pistol ammunition on the war horse. They calmly lifted the Minnie spear, easily pressed a fixed-mounted Minnie bullet into the bullet cabin, and then closed it with a "bang", raised it, and aimed at the enemy's back.

On this battlefield where killing a group of battles, even Qitade could not immediately receive the battle situation of the surrounding troops, and could only pursue the enemy in front of him.

After about an hour, the war finally ended.

The three thousand people they faced were estimated to have been killed or injured by more than 2,000 people, and less than a thousand escaped.

The battle situation on other battlefields is similar to that here, but without his command, he finally felt a little shaken when facing the impact of heavy armored cavalry like huge waves and suffered greater losses.

The two thousand cavalry led by Chu Huer was much easier to compete with the five thousand cavalry of the Sultan of Balah. Unlike Ablikhan, there were so many Persian craftsmen who built a large number of chain mails for him. He could only buy them in small quantities, but there were more firearms, so he naturally bought them from the Russians.

Such a configuration is obviously not an opponent of Chu Huer's tribe, which already has a generational misfortune. Moreover, there are only a few heavy cavalry, and the Sultan of Balah must be used to protect himself. Therefore, the tribal cavalry that suddenly came before them, and Chu Huer could defeat him with an assault with his usual puncture tactics.

Seeing this, Bala Sultan quickly rushed into the city of Custana with hundreds of cavalry from the north gate.

By the time Qitade and Chu Huer gathered again, time had already come to dusk of that day.

"Khan, Abray ran away! But we caught his son Vari"
