With a loud shout, Li Songping chopped off a Mongolian general from his horse with a single blow. Without even looking at it, he quickly found the next target and immediately rode away!
The Haraqin tribe, which had occupied the former Daning capital of the Ming Dynasty for hundreds of years, was suffering an unprecedented disaster.
Ma Xianglin also rushed to the battlefield quickly. He ordered his guards to shout everywhere:
"His Majesty ordered, kill them all and leave no one behind!"
The emperor's order completely aroused their animal nature, and they now have no scruples.
In the eyes of those Mongolians, this Ming army was extremely ferocious. No matter whether you stood up to resist or knelt down to beg for mercy, their answer was to chop the blood-filled saber on your neck and head.
They don't care whether you are a man or a woman. This is simply a devil. At this moment, all the Mongolians are feeling deep fear in their hearts. They just want to leave here, so they are all running away like crazy!
A leader far away from the battlefield led his men to gather up the fleeing people and shouted:
"Don't be chaotic, don't be chaotic. Everyone who can move, follow me and rush back. The Ming army has nothing to be afraid of. Warriors, rush with me!"
Soon, in addition to more than 400 of his own men, the leader gathered more than 500 fleeing people. He distributed weapons to these people and led the charge on horseback.
His eyes were fixed on Li Songping, and he knew that this was the leader of the Ming army. As long as he was killed, defeat could be turned into victory.
Li Songping actually saw someone dare to fight back, and he couldn't help but admire this person's courage, but appreciation was appreciation, and he would not show mercy because of it!
"Follow me to cover up and kill these Tatars!"
The Ming troops around Li Songping quickly gathered together. Due to being too scattered, there were only more than 300 people, but none of them were afraid. Under the leadership of their general, they had a real fight with this large-scale Mongolian cavalry.
contest.
While Ma Xianglin was chasing and intercepting other fleeing Mongolians, he suddenly saw a Mongolian army of about a thousand people escaping in a hurry not far away, and there were even carriages among them.
Ma Xianglin's eyes shone brightly. He had to make such a large formation to escape. This team must not be simple. He immediately gathered hundreds of cavalry and chased them.
"Father, father, the Ming army is catching up behind us, what should we do?"
Anda was upset at the moment. His little son was still yelling and yelling. He slapped him and cursed:
"Trash, what else do you do besides yelling? If you were half as brave as your brother, I wouldn't have to be in such a mess today."
Looking at the pursuers behind him, Anda also regretted it. He only blamed himself for being too gullible to Lin Dan Khan. He said that as long as he handed over his troops and horses, he could win casually. He just went to get food.
He asked his eldest son to take most of the warriors from the tribe with him, but now their hometown has been raided by others.
But there was no use regretting it. He immediately asked one of his confidants to lead five hundred cavalry to fight, and then ran away at a faster speed.
"Warriors, charge at me and kill these Ming soldiers!"
Ma Xianglin looked at the Mongolian cavalry opposite and found that most of them didn't even have armor, so he immediately ordered them to draw their bows and set up arrows.
The Mongolians on the opposite side ran too hastily and basically ran away on horseback. Not many of them had bows and arrows, so they suffered a big loss in the face of the Ming army's arrows.
After several rounds of arrows were fired, only about 300 of the 500 Mongolian cavalry remained.
Ma Xianglin clenched Ma Shan in his hand and shouted:
"kill!"
The Ming army behind also quickly grasped the long sword and rushed forward at Ma Xianglin's speed.
Ma Xianglin was extremely brave and killed five Mongolian knights in a row. Seeing that the Ming army generals were so powerful, the other Mongolians did not dare to block them. Ma Xianglin relied on his personal force to tear open a hole.
And ordinary sergeants are also worthy of Mongolian cavalry, and they are equipped with sophisticated weapons and armor, which greatly increases their combat effectiveness.
After a wave of killings, the Mongols had less than 200 people left, while the Ming army basically suffered no losses except for about 20 people who fell off their horses.
Their crudely made scimitars could hardly break through the fine armor of the Ming army with just one cut. The even more rubbish scimitars could even break open with just one cut.
The five hundred Mongolian cavalry were basically wiped out by the three hundred Ming army in less than a quarter of an hour, while the Ming army suffered less than fifty casualties.
Ma Xianglin grabbed a wounded soldier and asked:
"Who is that person in front of you? Tell me and spare your life!"
This Mongolian man had a very strong desire to survive and immediately replied:
"He is the leader of our Karaqin tribe!"
After he finished speaking, Ma Xianglin sent him to see their Changshengtian with one blow of his sword, and then galloped up on his horse.
That's a big fish, we can't let him get away.
Anda's escape journey was not smooth. In addition to the pursuers behind him, he also encountered a Ming army. This Ming army belonged to the Mangui First Division and consisted of more than a hundred people.
Anda quickly ordered to turn around, not because he was afraid, but because he didn't want to get entangled any longer, otherwise he would be doomed if the Ming army's troops arrived.
It's a pity that he didn't run very fast, because he had a family with him, and there were several carriages carrying his belongings, so he couldn't bear to give up.
Ma Xianglin quickly caught up and captured Anda's family easily. Anda's youngest son knelt down and kowtowed for mercy, but was beaten violently by Anda.
This siege and killing feast lasted for most of the day. Except for a few Mongolians who ran very fast and saved their lives, basically all the others died.
"Your Majesty, the guard has caught a big fish for you. This is the leader of the Karaqin tribe!"
Ma Xianglin happily escorted Anda's family to meet Zhu Youxiao. After following His Majesty for so long, he finally made a contribution.
"Oh? Then this fish is indeed quite big!"
Zhu Youxiao looked at Anda, and Anda also looked at him. According to what the Ming army general just said, the young man in front of him is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?
How is this possible? He knew about the Ming Dynasty emperor's personal expedition, but didn't the Great Khan still have the Ming Dynasty emperor in the pass?
"How dare you fail to salute His Majesty when you see him?"
After Ma Xianglin finished speaking, he kicked him in the back knees from behind. Anda couldn't stand it, and he knelt down with a scream.
The surrounding guards also drew their long swords one after another. Others were frightened when they saw this. Anda's youngest son was a super coward, so he quickly knelt down and shouted:
"See His Majesty the Ming Emperor!"
Others also felt the threat to their lives and quickly followed suit, kneeling and shouting in unison.
Anda broke out in a cold sweat from the pain, but he did not dare to raise his head because Ma Xianglin's long knife was hanging next to his neck, and it was extremely dazzling with the reflection of the sun.
