No matter how brave the Tatars are, they can't withstand the hail of bullets fired by nearly a thousand muskets. This level of hail of bullets, let alone brave men, even the top martial arts masters will be beaten into pieces.
.
If at the beginning, they saw the Tatar cavalry roaring like a torrent dozens of feet away, these fire gun soldiers who could almost be said to have little defense were naturally extremely frightened.
In other words, Wang Yangming stood there motionless to calm the minds of these people, otherwise the soldiers would definitely panic and even run away.
After several rounds of shooting, these musketeers watched as the Tatars on the opposite side were shot and fell one by one, and few of them were able to rush forward.
Even if a few cavalrymen occasionally rushed forward, they would all be frightened out of fear, or they would be brought forward by the inertia of their mounts, and then they would all be shot on the spot.
Seeing this situation, the fire gun soldiers naturally became more courageous at this moment.
Although we have always known that the firecrackers in their hands are very powerful, it is really rare to gather thousands of firecrackers and use them intensively like this.
That is to say, Wang Yangming plundered almost all the firecrackers in the entire army to collect so many useful firecrackers. Otherwise, even if he would use firecrackers on weekdays, he would mostly gather dozens or hundreds of firecrackers.
Just a gun.
Although the concentrated firepower of dozens of fire cannons is equally astonishing, it is absolutely impossible to achieve such a terrifying effect at this time.
Seeing that the almost invincible Golden Horde army fell in front, a group of fire gun soldiers gradually entered the state, and even the speed of rotation was significantly accelerated.
As the saying goes, if the firecrackers break into chaos before the battle, it will definitely give the Tatar cavalry an opportunity to charge into the army formation.
Once the cavalry gets close, the advantage of firearms will naturally cease to exist, and the situation will inevitably be different.
But it was obviously different now. No matter how brave these brave Tatar cavalry were to launch a charge without fear of death, it was difficult to overcome the chasm.
In addition, the speed at which the rear artillery was filled with gunpowder was always very stable, so a wave of shelling would break out from time to time.
Under the continuous bombardment of artillery and firecrackers, most of the tens of thousands of Golden Horde troops had already fallen in just a few seconds.
Even so, the remaining thousands of Golden Horde troops still adhered to the orders of Ma Guli, Alborod and the others and charged into the battle without fear of death.
Under normal circumstances, a large army may be defeated if it loses 10% or 20% of its battle losses, but the Golden Horde army is worthy of being the true elite of the Tatars. Even with most of the casualties, there is still no sign of collapse.
Even though Wang Yangming, who was standing in front of the army, looked at the fallen Tatar corpses and the soldiers of the Golden Horde who were charging as usual, he couldn't help but show a bit of wonder and fear in his eyes.
Needless to say, Wang Yangming was amazed by the bravery and fearlessness of the Golden Horde Army, but he was also afraid of this.
Dayan Khan had a total of 50,000 Golden Horde troops under his command. These 50,000 Golden Horde troops, which gathered the essence of Tatars, were Dayan Khan's capital to rule the entire Tatars.
Wang Yangming had always heard about the reputation of the Golden Horde Army, but he did not expect to truly see the power of the Golden Horde Army under such circumstances.
Although he saw the soldiers of the Golden Horde army charging into the battle one by one without fear of death, Wang Yangming had some murderous intentions towards the remaining Golden Horde Khan army.
If elites like this can be destroyed, it is best to destroy them early. Otherwise, even if they can severely damage the Tatars this time, they will not be able to shake Dayan Khan as long as these Golden Horde troops are there.
Dominance of the grasslands.
It won't take many years for the Tatars to regain their strength and once again move south to threaten the Central Plains.
Among the Tatar army, Alborod and others could clearly see that the soldiers and horses under his command were shot to death in waves by the Ming army's firearms in front of the military formation. They were more than ten feet apart, but they were like a line.
Natural chasms are generally insurmountable.
Suddenly, Alborod shouted towards Ma Guli: "Ma Guli, we can't go any further. If we continue to charge like this, I'm afraid all the Golden Horde troops will get in."
When he thought that if they lost tens of thousands of Golden Horde Khan troops, his father Khan would definitely burst into thunderous rage. Even if he could save his life, he would probably be severely punished.
Alborod couldn't help but shuddered, and even shouted at Nu Guli: "Quickly order the withdrawal of the troops, quick to withdraw the troops!"
Ma Guli looked at the scene ahead with red eyes.
In terms of great pressure, the pressure that Ma Guli endured was definitely much greater than that of Alborot. After all, he was the commander-in-chief of the army.
Dayan Khan handed over so many elites to him, but in the end, he ruined such an elite. After returning, Dayan Khan might have his head chopped off.
However, under such pressure, Ma Guli still tried hard to keep calm and stared at the Ming army formation ahead.
Suddenly, there were several commotions in the Ming army's formation, and several muskets exploded.
Among thousands of fire blunderbuss, it is normal for a fire blunderbuss to explode. However, under normal circumstances, if the fire blunderbuss is used repeatedly, the chance of the fire blunderbuss exploding will naturally increase.
It was obvious that the number of exploding firecrackers in the military formation suddenly increased, naturally because many firecrackers were fired several times in succession.
It is conceivable that if such continuous shooting continues, the probability of the chamber exploding will continue to increase.
Seeing this scene, Na Guli suddenly said to Alborot: "Your Highness Al, please hold on a little longer. Once the firearms of the Ming army explode on a large scale, those soldiers will inevitably collapse."
Alborot yelled at Ma Guli: "So what, everyone is going to die soon. Even if all the firearms of the Ming army are exploded by then, what will happen?"
When Ma Guli heard the words, he couldn't help but froze, with a look of astonishment on his face. His expression suddenly changed. At this moment, Ma Guli was shocked to realize that it was just a short cup of tea.
The elite Golden Horde army only had about three to four thousand people left.
Seeing the reaction in Nu Guli's eyes, Alborot sneered and said: "If you don't retreat, I'm afraid the whole army will be annihilated. Father Khan will never let you go."
As he spoke, Alborot looked at Nu Li and said: "Although it is impossible to escape the punishment of Father Khan for retreating at this time, at least the entire army has not been wiped out. In addition, the Ming army's firearms are indeed sharp. Let me explain it to you from the side.
, to protect you from death."
Seeing the hesitation on Nu Guli's face, Alborot couldn't help but said angrily: "There is nothing to hesitate about. If you don't retreat, then I will have no choice but to force the withdrawal. Then you will have to bear it yourself."
The anger of Father Khan."
Although the command of the army is in the hands of Ma Guli, if Alborot gives orders beyond Ma Guli, then these Golden Horde troops will ultimately only obey the orders of Alboroth, who represents Dayan Khan.
Hearing Alborod's threat, he glanced at the Ming army's position reluctantly. He had a hunch that if he persisted, there would definitely be problems with the Ming army's firearms. By then, he might not be without hope of rushing into the Ming army.
In the military camp.
Just looking at the elite soldiers of the Golden Horde Army falling one after another, Na Guli had to face the reality, that is, if his premonition was wrong, all the Golden Horde Army would have to join in.
He will die if he doesn't escape.
In particular, this would make Alborot express his intention to take over the army by force. No matter what he thought, there was only one option left for him, and that was to withdraw the army immediately.
Taking a deep breath, he let out a long roar in his bones: "Withdraw troops!"
As Ma Guli's orders were conveyed, the Golden Horde Khan army, which had been charging into the Ming army's positions without fear of death, suddenly stopped charging and began to change direction and flee in the distance.
Another shot of artillery hit, immediately taking away the lives of hundreds of unlucky people.
After all, as a large number of Tatar cavalry were killed and they were bombarded by artillery again and again, these surviving Tatar cavalry also had some experience in dealing with artillery bombardment.
At the beginning, the Tatars maintained a dense formation and attacked, so naturally they could kill many soldiers with one shot.
But at this time, the Tatar cavalry had already learned the lesson and spread out far away. As a result, the density was suddenly reduced many times, and the killing effect of the artillery was naturally greatly reduced.
Before the military formation, a group of gun soldiers who were approaching the battle saw the Tatar cavalry who were continuously attacking their position suddenly turned around and ran away. They were stunned for a moment, and then they reacted and couldn't help but shout excitedly.
They actually used the firecrackers in their hands to repel the attack of the most elite Golden Horde army of the Tatars.
They had heard the name of the Golden Horde Army for a long time, so no one thought that they could defeat these Golden Horde Army. They only thought that Wang Yangming summoned them just to let them fire a few rounds of firecrackers and create some trouble for the Tatars.
No one expected that they alone could defeat the Tatar cavalry.
Qi Zhen and other generals all looked shocked at this moment, and they were obviously shocked by the power of the firearm.
Wang Yangming's expression seemed quite calm, but there was a bit of darkness in the depths of his eyes, and he secretly sighed in his heart: "It is really as Li Huan said, artillery and firecrackers can only show their true power when used together."
Power.”
To be honest, Wang Yangming concentrated all the use of firearms this time, probably because he was influenced by Li Huan.
At this time, Qi Zhen looked at Wang Yangming with a face of great surprise and trembled: "Grand Governor, we have won. We even repelled the Tatars' Golden Horde Army. If we had more and more sophisticated firearms,
There is nothing to fear from the mere Tatars."
Wang Yangming stroked his beard and nodded slightly: "Yes, I think back to the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Taizu and Emperor Taizong used firearms to drive away the Tartars and rebuild China. However, we and other descendants were gradually neglected in military affairs, and even many
The quality of artillery and muskets is much worse."
After hearing Wang Yangming's emotion, Qi Zhen thought of the exploding artillery and blunderbuss, his eyes widened, and he shouted angrily: "The people from the Ministry of Industry should be killed. The military and state's sharp weapons dared to cut corners. It's a shame for the Tatars."
People are scared. If the other side continues to charge forward, more artillery and firecrackers will explode, and there is no telling when the army will collapse because of these exploding artillery and firecrackers."
This is not a false statement. It is normal to think about it. If someone else had used this weapon that could explode at any time, the morale of the military would still be stable.
Wang Yangming took a deep breath and said, "I will report this to the Emperor of Heaven."
As he spoke, Wang Yangming got on his horse and said with a loud laugh: "General Qi, would you like to lead your army with me to hunt down these Tatars!"
When Qi Zhen heard this, he was shocked and said: "Okay, I will compete with the chief governor to see who can kill more Tatars this time."
Immediately, thousands of cavalry roared out, led by Wang Yangming, Qi Zhen and others, chasing after the hastily retreating Ma Guli, Alborod and others.
Sanyang Town
The retreating Tatar army has now withdrawn to Sanyang Town, which is still more than a hundred miles away from Wuning Fort.
With a journey of more than a hundred miles, if the Tatars, who had almost all the cavalry, retreated desperately, they would be able to reach Wuning Fort in just one day.
However, the wear and tear on the horses due to this method of rushing was extremely shocking.
The most important thing is that if they retreat with all their strength, they will be exhausted by then. Wouldn't this create an opportunity for the Ming army that has been chasing them!
Because of this, Dayan Khan and other senior Tatar officials knew that they could withdraw to the grassland in a short period of time, but they did not choose this extreme method, which concealed hidden dangers. Instead, they took their time and took their time.
Retreat slowly.
The large group of cavalry moved forward slowly, but the speed was not slow. After all, no matter how slow the cavalry was, it was not as fast as the infantry.
At this time, in a huge carriage, Dayan Khan and several close men were listening to the news brought by the sentry.
"What are you talking about, Yang Yiqing, Cao Xiong's troops are approaching Wuning Fort, and the Ayan tribe stationed at Wuning Fort has sent someone to ask for help?"
Dayan Khan frowned and stared at the sentry in front of him.
The sentry nodded and said, "Go back to the Great Khan. The envoy sent by General Ayan is outside."
Dayan Khan waved his hand and said, "Bring him in."
Soon one person got on the carriage, bowed respectfully to Dayan Khan, and then said to Dayan Khan: "Great Khan, my general is deeply aware of the shortage of manpower, and is afraid that Yang Yiqing and Cao Xiong's troops will occupy Wuning Fort.
, so I ordered the young man to come and ask the Great Khan to send reinforcements."
Dayan Khan glanced at the man and snorted coldly: "Oirat, Mandula and the others haven't arrived at Wuning Fort yet?"
According to Dayan Khan's previous instructions, Oirat and Mandula set off first because Dayan Khan learned that Yang Yiqing and Cao Xiong's tens of thousands of Ming troops were rushing towards Wuning Fort, and there was no way to stop them.
A retreat stance.
In order to prevent the retreat from being cut off, Dayan Khan sent out Oirat and Mandu to pull two troops early. It is said that the two troops should have arrived at Wuning Fort by now.
But looking at the intention of the Ayan tribe's envoy, it seemed that the two troops from Oirat and Mandula had not arrived at Wuning Fort at all.
As expected, when the envoy heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and shook his head with a look of confusion on his face: "I came all the way, but I didn't see any trace of Oirat and Mandula's troops at all."
In the carriage, several people looked at each other in confusion after hearing this. Some people's expressions changed, especially Han Yu, Lu Guang and others looked at each other, as if they wanted to understand something.
Even Dayan Khan's face suddenly became extremely gloomy at this moment, and he slapped the table in front of him with his big hand, and a cup of tea immediately wet the blanket beside him.
"Okay, okay, Mandula, Oirat, you are so brave. I should not have entrusted you with such an important task."
Ada Tumeng and several Tatar generals looked shocked when they heard this and said: "Great Khan, you mean Mandula, Oirat and others have rebelled?"
With a cold snort, Dayan Khan sneered and said: "Mandu La, Oirat and the others usually obey and disobey the orders of this Khan, but I think they are my Tatars, so I can't bear to use swords against each other.
He was also very tolerant of him, and never imagined that Mandula, Oirat and the others would dare to disobey this Khan's orders."
A general heard this and said angrily: "You really deserve to be killed, Great Khan. When we return to the grassland, please allow the last general to lead the army to behead the Oirat and pull their heads."
Taking a deep breath, Dayan Khan was obviously caught off guard by the news that Oirat and Mandula did not rush to Wuning Fort.
Originally, according to his arrangement, there were more than 20,000 troops from the Oirat and Mandula tribes, plus thousands of troops from the Ayan tribe stationed in Wuning Fort, which added up to more than 20,000 troops. Even Yang Yiqing,
Cao Xiong's troops had a large number of troops, and it was impossible to capture Wuning Fort in a short time.
It can be said that his retreat is safe, but Dayan Khan never dreamed of Oirat and Mandula's two troops did not follow his orders and rushed to Wuning Fort to protect their retreat. This suddenly put their nearly 100,000 troops into an extreme situation.
In a terrible situation.
Everyone present was not stupid, and naturally they all realized this.
Being in a high position, one naturally understands the importance of an escape route, so one by one he explained and looked at Dayan Khan with solemn expressions.
Adatu fiercely said to Dayan Khan: "Great Khan, the Ayan tribe may not be able to support us in rushing to Wuning Fort. As a precaution, the last general will lead a group of troops to rush to Wuning Fort to unite with the Ayan tribe.
How about preserving our retreat?"
Dayan Khan's face was as gloomy as water at this time, and the disobedience of Oirat and Mandula suddenly disrupted his arrangement.
At this time, Dayan Khan raised his head and glanced at Adatu Meng. After pondering for a moment, he nodded towards Adatu Meng and said, "For this purpose, this is the only way."
As he spoke, Dayan Khan looked at Ada Tu Meng and said: "A Da Tu Meng, you will lead five thousand cavalry, one man and two cavalry, and rush to Wuning Fort as quickly as possible. As long as you hold on for two days, this Khan will
He will arrive with his army."
