Bolo turned his head and saw that all the Mongolian cavalry behind him were dead. He was shocked and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Withdraw! Withdraw!"

In fact, Bolo didn't need to say anything, the Mongolian cavalry behind also knew that it was time to withdraw.

However, the attack range of the Ming Army's Crouching Tiger Artillery was as far as 200 steps. At this time, many Mongolian cavalry rushed into this range. The subsequent Mongolian cavalry was also charging at high speed, with people in front and behind, making it difficult to turn.

As a result, many Mongolian cavalrymen rushed forward even though they knew that they would be killed by Crouching Tiger Cannons if they rushed forward.

There were also those who forcibly reined in their horses during the charge, but almost all of them were knocked off their backs by the cavalry behind them and were trampled to death on the spot.

Two or three miles away, Nikan and others were equally shocked when they saw this scene.

"This Ming army probably has hundreds of squatting tiger cannons!"

Nikan even angrily whipped Du Yonghe and Wu Wenwen, asking: "Why didn't you tell us before that the Ming army had so many squatting cannons? Could it be that you wanted to see our army suffer such a big loss?!"

Nikan struck hard this time, and the two of them screamed in pain after being beaten, but they did not dare not explain.

"Master Beile, the Ming army did not use so many squatting cannons to attack us."

"Yes, yes, they used the red barbarian cannon that opened the shells. Mr. Baylor saw it just now."

Nikan actually knew that this was another Ming army and not Huang Degong's tribe, but he just wanted to vent his anger on these two defeated Han generals. Otherwise, would he be angry at the Jurchens or Mongolian Anda?

After beating the two of them severely, Nikan looked again and saw Bolo running towards this side with more than a thousand horses, hurriedly like a bereaved dog.

There are hundreds of knights scattered around the battlefield, also running towards this direction.

In other words, just now the Ming army killed and wounded seven to eight hundred Mongolian cavalry in a single artillery attack!

When Nikan was thinking about how to explain to Dodo, or simply pass the blame to Bolo, he saw another roar from the Ming army array.

Boom boom boom...

Thirty or forty artillery shells with sparks were seen accurately falling into the cavalry led by Bolo. They either exploded on the ground or exploded in the air.

Suddenly, many Mongolian cavalrymen jumped on their backs.

Maybe it was because Bolo ran in front, or maybe he was lucky and was still fine.

But the Mongolian cavalry behind him was one or two hundred less.

This is because the formation of the cavalry is relatively loose. If the formation was tighter, the casualties would probably be doubled.

Nikan's face turned pale, and he suddenly remembered something. He immediately gave Du Yonghe a whip and asked: "How far can the Ming army's Hongyi cannon hit?"

Du Yonghe hesitated for a moment and said: "Two miles, right?"

"Really only two miles?"

"When Huang Degong attacked us, he did so within two miles."

After hearing this, Nikan was just judging how credible the words of the two defeated Han generals were when he heard the roar of artillery again.

At this time, Bolo led Qianqi to the left and right, and had approached Nikan's side.

Nikan looked at it, his pupils shrank, and he shouted: "Spread out! Spread out!"

While shouting, Nikan was the first to hit the horse and rush out.

The three thousand Mongolian cavalry behind him were in chaos, running in all directions.

However, before these people could completely disperse, thirty or forty rounds of explosive ammunition fell.

Because they thought they were at a safe distance, the formation of these three thousand cavalry was much tighter than the cavalry of the Bolo Leader. Even if they dispersed a few breaths in advance, they still appeared to be quite tight.

At this time, people were knocked upside down by the explosion, and even both men and horses were shattered!

Nikan ran out of hundreds of units and looked back, feeling frightened.

The Ming army had so many red cannons, and they could be fired so far and so fast, which completely exceeded his expectations.

It should be noted that whether it was the Hongyi cannon brought by Kong Youde or the cannon they captured later, it could only be sent as far as three miles.

Moreover, there are only a few of these Hongyi cannons, weighing several thousand kilograms, and are extremely difficult to transport. They are usually placed immobile on the walls of important cities and fortresses such as Beijing and Shanhaiguan.

Who would have thought that the Ming army actually brought thirty or forty of these Hongyi cannons and hid them in the military formation?

Thinking of this, Nikan immediately realized that the previous defeat of the Ming army in the town was definitely a fraud!

So he hurriedly said to the few white-armored knights around him: "Go quickly to find Enge Tu, Chuo Bei, tell them that the Ming army is cheating, and retreat north as soon as possible!"

"嗻!"

Unexpectedly, before these white-armored knights could get far, several Mongolian cavalrymen were running towards them from the other side of the town.

He shouted from afar: "Nikambele, tens of thousands of Ming troops appeared in the south, the artillery is extremely fierce, and we are blocked in the town. It is difficult for the large group of people to break out. Please send troops to support quickly!"

After shouting, he saw clearly what was happening here and suddenly looked confused.

What's going on?

Was this side also defeated?

Nikan scolded angrily: "What happened to Engetu? Didn't he ask him to be careful and not to go deep into the town easily?

Also, there are tens of thousands of Ming troops in the south and you didn’t detect them in advance, so what are they doing for food?!”

The leader of the Mongolian cavalry came to his senses and explained: "Baylor, it's not that my master is not cautious, it's just that the Ming army is too cunning.

The Ming army continued to retreat in the town, and they were still carrying many silver boxes. The tribesmen came here to make money, how could they not rush?

The Ming army in the south quickly approached from three or four miles away to two miles away from the town, and then fired artillery at the entrance of Nanjie. As long as a large group of us rushed out, we would be bombarded.

Moreover, they used explosive ammunition, which was too powerful.

Later, many armored soldiers were sent out, and firecrackers blocked the street entrance, and we couldn't get out at all."

Nikan became even angrier after hearing this, "Idiot! Won't you come out from the north or the west?"

The Mongolian cavalry who reported this said with a mournful face: "The north is also blocked by the Ming army. The two adults are retreating to the west, but they are tightly entangled by the Ming army in the town.

Those Ming troops who were originally timid suddenly became brave and good at fighting, and even Lord Chuo Bei was killed.

Please also ask Baylor to send troops to support and respond quickly, otherwise Master Ngetu and thousands of our tribe may be trapped inside."

The surrounding Mongolian cavalry became commotion after hearing this.

Nikan looked gloomy when he saw this. He was about to say something when he heard the roar of the cannon again. He suddenly looked frightened and ran away.

As a result, under the gaze of the Mongolian cavalry asking for help, Nikan ran no more than a few dozen steps north and happened to bump into a falling shell.

boom!

There was a loud bang.

The bomb exploded in the air, and the horse Nikan was riding was knocked down immediately. Nikan fell out like a rag doll, rolled twice after landing, and then became motionless.

This was already the fourth round of artillery bombardment. The firing range far exceeded three miles and the firing speed of dozens of breaths had completely frightened the Mongolian cavalry.

Then I saw the soldiers from the Second Town of the Border Guards rushing towards us, shouting for death, and the remaining Mongolian cavalry immediately scattered in all directions.

No one mentioned anything about joining Engetu again.

No one even paid attention to Nikan's disgraceful body.

Nikan was only their temporary commander, not their master. Naturally, no Mongolian cavalry would take care of him in this critical moment.

As for Nikan's personal soldiers, there were not many in the first place, but he sent out many during the battle, and the rest were either killed or injured in the shelling.

Therefore, when the soldiers from the Second Town of the Border Guards rushed over, they found that they had no time to chase the fleeing Mongolian cavalry, so they began to clean the battlefield and prepare to intercept the enemies in the town.

Soon several soldiers started shouting in surprise.

"A Tatar general is dead here!"

···

Engetu relied on forcing his cavalry to resist the pursuit of the Ming army, and finally led more than 3,000 cavalry out of the town.

But when he saw the situation outside, his face was full of despair.

On the battlefield to the west, tens of thousands of Ming troops appeared at some unknown time, divided into nine thousand-man teams, one every hundred steps, with tigers squatting and cannons, and musketeers all ready to form a blockade of more than two miles.
