Originally, Lin Dan Khan deployed a team of more than 4,000 people in the Abaha Grassland. This team was stationed in the Abaha Grassland to block the eastern exit of Hanhai Grassland, between Hanhai Grassland and Uzhumu.
Forming a barrier. Abaha stationed a force of soldiers and horses, coupled with Akano's army, even if the Northern Shanxi Army cannot be defeated in the end, it can still be delayed for a while. In this case, wait for the Northern Shanxi Army to hit Ujumu and march
Min Te from Liaodong also completed his mission and returned with his army.
When Lin Danhan thought about it, as long as he had an army of 100,000, he really had no fear of anyone in the Uzhumu area. But Lin Danhan never dreamed that a burst of artillery fire in the Abaha grassland would directly shatter Lin Danhan's dream.
.
Heiyunlong knew the purpose of going deep into the eastern grassland this time. The purpose of sending troops this time was not to fight against Lin Dan Khan, but to solve the dilemma in Liaodong. Therefore, the key to this battle was to win it quickly and force Lin Dan Khan to defeat Minte's army.
Transfer back in advance. Therefore, on the second day after arriving in the eastern part of the Hanhai Grassland, Hei Yunlong asked the artillery to find a position. Hei Yunlong's order was very simple, that is, the artillery did not hesitate to use ammunition, even if the few artillery shells were empty.
We must also eliminate the obstacles on the Abaha grassland in the shortest possible time.
If the soldiers and horses on the Abaha grassland are combined with Chiye's army, the next battle will be too difficult. Although the Northern Shanxi Army also has an army of more than 20,000, this is Lin Dan Khan's hometown.
Far away from Yun Mansion, both sides suffered casualties, so it must be the Northern Shanxi Army that suffered.
The artillery made General Land Commander Xun extremely painful, but Hei Yunlong had to listen to his orders, so that day he gritted his teeth and issued the order. The Northern Shanxi Army did not send cavalry to attack, but directly threw the artillery fire at Abaha.
On the grassland.
The spring was quite bright on this day, and Dusma, who was responsible for guarding the Abaha grassland, was still thinking about how to fight the Northern Shanxi Army next, but a rumble of artillery sound almost deafened him, "What's going on?
What's going on?"
He hurriedly ran out of the tent and saw his deputy Tomutola rushing over in panic, "Oh no, the Han people have let go... The Han people's artillery fire is too fierce, the warriors can't stop it."
I can’t stand it... Let’s retreat quickly..."
"???" Dusma was a little dazed. He really didn't understand what the Han people were firing endlessly at this time. As long as the warriors retreated ten miles, wouldn't these artillery fires be wasted? Isn't it true?
Did the Han people throw such artillery shells just to blow up the camp? Dusma had never seen a fight like this. In the past, when had the Han people's artillery fire not cooperated with the infantry and cavalry?
Without much thought, Dusma agreed to Tomutola's suggestion. In fact, it would be impossible not to withdraw. We couldn't continue to stay in the camp and be bombed, right? Of course, we could also organize a charge of troops and horses, as long as we shortened the distance,
The Han artillery fire was ineffective. However, Dusma did not do this. He felt that it was completely unnecessary. If he rushed to fight, he might be tricked by the Han people.
Dusma and Tomutola thought they had a plan, and led their troops to retreat to the east. Although they retreated in a panic, they did not lose their minds. The previous burst of fierce artillery fire looked scary, but in fact it did not cause much damage.
It's not too big, which is why Dusma still has some confidence. After the army retreated ten miles, a sudden change occurred. A group of armored cavalry suddenly rushed over from the north and inserted directly into the middle of Dusma's army. Now Dusma
Then I became really scared.
At this moment, Dusma finally understood what the previous burst of artillery fire was about. The Han people fired a burst of artillery fire just to force the warriors to flee back and wait until they were halfway to ambush them. But...but...but
Is it too damn extravagant to use so many artillery shells to do this kind of thing? Are the Han people so rich?
If he had known this, Dusma would definitely have chosen not to retreat, but directly organized his army to rush forward to compete with the Han army. Unfortunately, it was too late to regret.
Ma Fang is a famous old fox in Xuanhua Prefecture. Naturally, he will not give Dusma and others a chance to react. He waved the steel knife and shouted loudly: "One team cuts in the middle, and the rest separate the two sides, let me cut these tartars."
They were all slaughtered."
Dusma's army was not just a mob, but several thousand prairie men who were all capable of conquering and fighting. However, the formation was now in complete chaos and was divided into countless small groups. In addition, Ma Fang's army was advancing at an extremely fast speed.
The resistance was disorganized and chaotic. As a result, thousands of brave Mongolian cavalry were now like a group of reckless men who did not know how to fight. In just a quarter of an hour, all resistance turned into a rout.
At this point, there is no room for deliberate recovery. Dusma and Tomutola were wrapped up by their own soldiers and fled all the way. They still remembered the screams in the distance. They fled eastward until they met Akano's army.
Only Sima and the remaining soldiers dared to stop. Unfortunately, after counting the number of people, less than 200 people escaped with him in the end. Knowing this result, Dusma didn't even get up and fell off his horse.
Dusma fell directly on the bed, as if he had lost his soul, and Chi Ye, who was full of fighting spirit, also had a basin of cold water poured into his heart, and he was a little confused. Dusma was defeated too quickly, and he was confused.
At one hour, the Abaha grassland was given over to the Han people. Akano couldn't figure out how they could be defeated so quickly when they were four thousand grassland warriors.
The news quickly spread to Ya Zhang. When he heard the news about the tragic defeat in Abaha Grassland, Lin Danhan stared and could not recover for a long time. After a while, he jumped up, smashed the wine glass to the ground, jumped and cursed.
: "Dusma is a pig, how could he do this? All the good plans of this Khan were ruined by this trash... And that Han man, those were cannonballs... How could this be possible?
How to use it like this?"
Artillery, when Lin Danhan heard about this thing, he felt a little trembling in his heart. It was this kind of artillery fire that crippled the arrogant Eight Banners cavalry in Gyeongju. Now the Han people are relying on the power of artillery to come to Lin Danhan to cause trouble.
, and this time Dusma was defeated worse than the Jurchens. Lin Danhan was very angry, but he had to think more about what was going to happen next.
If the Abaha grassland is lost so quickly, then the Han soldiers and horses will fight against Chiye's army in advance. This is different from Lin Danhan's previous plan. In this case, if Chiye is defeated again, wouldn't the Han people be able to march straight in?
, hit Lin Danhan’s royal court? Damn it, didn’t Huang Taiji say before that the Northern Shanxi Army had been busy suppressing bandits and was unable to advance eastward? Why is the Northern Shanxi Army still so arrogant now? Not only that, the shells look like they are unnecessary.
Just like throwing money on the grassland.
No matter what Lin Danhan thinks, the war on the grassland will not stop because of this.
The Northern Shanxi Army, which had rested for a day in the west of the Abaha Grassland, once again marched out of the Abaha Grassland, aiming directly at the Tangasi tribe in the east. This time, the Northern Shanxi Army marched very fast, and it took less than half a day.
Arriving near the Tangasi tribe, Tuobuhua's cavalry then bypassed the Tangasi tribe and aimed directly at Mangya in the north. Mangya was less than forty miles away from the Wuzumu grassland. Chiye heard that the cavalry of the Northern Shanxi Army
After attacking Mangya, the first reaction was to mobilize troops to Mangya. The second reaction was to lead the warriors of various tribes southward to block the main force of the Northern Shanxi Army in the desert to the south. The Northern Shanxi Army's cavalry attack on Mangya was nothing more than
It was just to contain the tribal warriors, but if most of the soldiers and horses did not move towards Mangya, what could the cavalry of the Northern Shanxi Army do?
Chiye thought he was very smart and saw through the Northern Shanxi Army's plan, but how could he have thought that Tuobuhua was not heading for Mangya at all. At early noon the next day, more than 4,000 cavalrymen rushing towards Mangya suddenly changed direction and accelerated.
Running towards the southeast at a high speed, Chiye sent the people who were rushing towards Mangya to miss, and could only rush back in panic. When Chiye heard that the cavalry of the Northern Shanxi Army was running towards the northeast, he immediately panicked. Those
Is the Han cavalry going to attack the Tatars? Ordinarily, if the cavalry of the Northern Shanxi Army goes to fight the Tatars, Chiye doesn’t need to be afraid at all, because more than 4,000 cavalrymen rush to the Uzumu grassland, and this lone army goes deep into the grassland.
, what kind of waves can it cause?
But Chiye felt that the Northern Shanxi Army was not like those incompetent fools. Since they dared to attack the Tatars, they must have some back-up plan. But they could not watch the Tatars being destroyed. Once they were destroyed, the royal court would also be destroyed.
It's dangerous.
Chiye wanted to return to aid the Tatars, but the problem was that now the main force of the Northern Shanxi Army had entered the Abaha Grassland. Is there no need to abandon the Abaha Grassland and let the Han soldiers and horses cross over? In desperation, Chiye was cruel and decided to first
The main force of the Northern Shanxi Army must be defeated. At this time, Chiye no longer had any contempt for him. As soon as he made contact, he felt the cunning of the Northern Shanxi Army.
Chi Ye's idea is very simple, that is, to use the Sanshili Desert on the eastern edge of the Abaha Grassland to try to use this desert to severely damage the Northern Shanxi Army.
Walking in the thirty-mile desert, there are patches of soft yellow sand under your feet. If you step on it, you will get stuck in it. The further north you go, the more cautious you are. The spies stay two miles away and pay close attention to the situation in the desert. Look at the sun.
Ma Fang took out his water bag and took a sip to moisten his dry throat. He asked Meng beside him, "General Meng, how far is it from walking out?"
"About ten miles, General Ma, we need to be more careful next time. This area is already the territory of the Yellow Headed Cavalry!" Monk seemed to be very jealous of the Yellow Headed Cavalry. This Yellow Headed Cavalry is the cavalry under Akano, and the tribe is young and strong.
Their heads are wrapped with yellow belts, so they are called yellow-headed cavalry. In addition to horses, this cavalry also has camels, and they are best at marching in the desert.
Maybe Munch had a crow's mouth. As soon as he finished speaking, the scouts from the front hurriedly reported, "General Ma, a large number of cavalry appeared in the northeast. It seems that they should be Lin Dan Khan's people."
Hei Yunlong was drinking water. Hearing the spies' report, he spat it out in one gulp and stared at Munch with his eyes. Munch could be considered a typical big man from northern Shanxi, with wheat-colored skin, a broad face, and a half-circle of stubble.
, such a burly and strong man felt uncomfortable being stared at by the Black Cloud Dragon. Munch thought to himself, this can’t be called a crow’s mouth.
Hanging the water bag on his waist, Heiyunlong pulled out his saber and shouted softly, "Generals, listen to the order and set up the formation!"
"Here!" Zhou Zhan took the order and ran forward with a gun, "The shield bearers...are in formation...the spearmen are in formation...the musketeers are ready..."
As orders were passed down, the soldiers who were still resting quickly moved into action. The shield bearers lined up in front. There were two people supporting each shield. One person was half-kneeling in the yellow sand, and the other person used his legs as a support to carry it.
Holding the shield, a long spear poked out from the gap, like a barb on a horse. This kind of spear is not used in ordinary battles, but a special poplar wood gun with a handle length of two feet and six feet, which is specially used for blocking.
Prepared by the cavalry.
From the north, there is a tide coming. These people are holding scimitars, wearing robes with left lapels, and a yellow ribbon flying in the wind on their heads. These are the yellow-headed cavalry in Monk's mouth. They are named after their tribe and have fought countless battles with the Eight Banners cavalry.
, Don’t fall behind. Countless yellow-headed cavalrymen have bloodthirsty sneers in their eyes. These puny Han people dare to form a formation to meet the enemy. Are they bullying the prairie warriors’ war horses?
Zhou Zhan stood behind the formation, unmoved at all. Although he was young, he had experienced a lot of battles.
The rumbling sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer, raising up half a foot of yellow sand and scenes of smoke and dust. It finally came. Zhou Zhan gripped the silver gun, took a step forward, and shouted, "Draw out the gun, stab! Stab!"
The yellow-headed cavalry's horses were mounted on the shield array in front of them, but the formation did not reopen as smoothly as they imagined. The shields just shook and stabilized. Then, a lever was too long and the poplar wood was too long.
The top of the wall pierced out from the gap, and it was so close that it was impossible to hide even if you wanted to. The spear stabbed the horse's belly, and the war horse whined, knocking the knight to the ground. Then those unlucky knights were either rushed from behind.
The war horse was knocked away, or his life was taken away by the spear behind the shield.
The greatest advantage of the cavalry is its impact. If the cavalry loses its impact, how can we cut the formation? Just ride on the horse and stand tall? More and more yellow-headed cavalry are rushing to the shield, and their speed is decreasing again and again.
, Slowly, the cavalry jammed together, and the entire assault formation turned into a mess. At this time, the yellow-headed cavalry was just a group of warriors on horseback. They could not run and could only face the soldiers of northern Shanxi below.
In order to vent their anger, some lunatics who were desperate for their lives jumped directly from their horses behind the shield. As you can imagine, the result was that they were chopped to the ground by sword hands as soon as they jumped in.
Feeling that it was almost done, Heiyunlong ordered the flag bearer to signal. When he saw the signal, someone shouted loudly, "The first two teams move forward, and the last two teams separate..."
When the order was given, the shield soldiers in the front row suddenly stood up, and two of them held up a shield and slammed it at the horses in front. This collision once again frustrated the momentum of the yellow-headed cavalry, which had been unable to charge. At the same time, with the strength of the rear,
The two rows of shield hands were separated from each other, and after arriving on both sides of the front row of shield array, they connected end to end, building two longitudinal shield walls. At this time, the entire shield array was like a concave character, and all the yellow-headed cavalry were concave.
In the pit, if these cavalry wanted to leave, they had no choice but to retreat. The problem was that the people in front knew that the way forward was blocked, but the cavalry in the back did not know that, and they still rushed forward. Now some people moved forward, while others
Moving backward, the impact formation turned into a mess.
