The soldiers under the city wall were well prepared and immediately opened the city gate. A troop of cavalry, as many as three thousand, rushed out of the city.
These cavalry rushed out of the city gate and rushed towards both sides, targeting the ladders.
The Mongols outside the city did not expect that the city gate would be opened, so they did not deploy troops around it.
It was under this situation that the Ming cavalry successfully cut down half of the ladders and then returned to the city.
The Mongols reacted quickly. Several groups of cavalry followed immediately and took the opportunity to rush into the city.
But before they had time to be happy, the city gate was already closed.
What awaited them were rows of black muzzles.
These several hundred Mongolian cavalry were quickly dealt with.
There were many militiamen around who began to clean up the battlefield, dispose of corpses, deal with those who were not dead, and drag away the war horses. As for the injured war horses, they were also carried away as food reserves.
Although this attack did not produce much results, the destroyed ladder reduced a lot of pressure on the defenders on the city wall.
After Xu Yingxu led his men to personally participate in the battle, the first wave of the Mongolian offensive quickly collapsed.
Many Mongolian leaders who were on the hilltop on the north side of Yunzhou City saw this scene and stamped their feet angrily.
"Mingren is too cunning, we should escort the whole army."
"Yes, we can no longer afford it. Most of the small tribes have been annexed by us."
"Come on, if we can't capture it, our grassland tribes won't be able to survive this winter."
Seeing signs of capturing Ganzhou City, these tribal chiefs were naturally unwilling to give up this opportunity.
But Khan, who was sitting in the center of the crowd, remained silent.
After a long while, he finally stood up and said: "This is your decision, then you can lead your troops to join the war."
The chiefs looked at each other and then immediately went down the mountain.
Soon, the second wave of Mongolian offensive began.
This time, thanks to the tribal chief's personal participation in the battle, the Mongols were like a chicken.
As usual, after three rounds of arrow rain, the army pressed forward.
However, there were no more siege equipment, and half of them could only shoot arrows at the city wall not far away, trying to suppress the firepower on the city wall.
A large number of Mongolian cavalry also gathered near the city gate to prevent the Ming from opening the city gate again.
Near the Hongyi cannon on the city wall, gunners would fall down from time to time, and then someone would come behind the cannon and start loading ammunition.
The guards brought by Xu Yingxu from Datong Mansion plus the Yunzhou Army are now less than two thousand.
But there was still no expression on his face.
This scene made the generals under the city wall very ashamed.
Even Su Wang Zhu Kai had a flash of guilt on his face.
This is his fief, but he hides behind Xu Yingxu.
…
"That's almost it. There are only more than 5,000 defenders on the mountain."
Zhu Gui handed the clairvoyant vision to Xu Miaoqing and said lightly.
"But we only have a hundred people. Once we get into a hard fight, what will happen if the Mongols come back to help?" Xu Miaoqing was not afraid, she was just speculating on what might happen.
Zhu Gui looked back and smiled: "Miaoqing, have you ever heard of Feng Lang Ju Xu?"
"Feng Langju Xu, are you talking about Huo Qubing?" Xu Miaoqing said without thinking.
"That's right. In the past, Huo Qubing lured hundreds of cavalry to defeat the Huns, who were in full swing. He abandoned their helmets and armor, which made the Han Dynasty famous. That's why we are called Han people. Since I am the son of the Han family, why don't I dare to compete with others?"
Zhu Gui said with a proud face.
"But, but, okay, I believe you."
Xu Miaoqing calmly pulled out both guns, took a deep breath and said.
"rush!"
"kill!"
Zhu Gui led a hundred cavalry and launched a charge.
It took them more than an hour to get here, and finally they chose to raid here when the Mongols were attacking Ganzhou City with all their strength.
The Khan of the Gechi tribe heard the movement down the mountain and stood up immediately.
At this time, someone came to report the situation: "Report to the Khan that a small group of Ming cavalry is attacking the mountain. Please ask the Khan to move elsewhere."
"How many people are there in Ming Dynasty?" Gechi Khan frowned slightly.
"There are only a hundred riders, but the firearms in the hands of Ming people are very sharp. They may be ambushes in Ganzhou City." The soldier said.
"Having just over a hundred cavalry, Khan asked me to move him? It's a joke. I want to see what these Ming people are capable of."
Not only was Gechi Khan not afraid, but he was aroused with anger.
Under the service of his own soldiers, he quickly dressed up and then rode towards the place where the battle was taking place.
But at first glance, he was startled.
I originally thought that this hundred-man cavalry was besieged at the foot of the mountain, but I didn't expect that they had already reached the gate of the camp. Instead, all the Mongolian defenders were behind them.
The leader was obviously a young man. The two strange weapons in his hands were only the size of a palm, but every time a 'bang' sound was made, a Mongolian cavalry fell down.
This strange situation made Guchi Khan also suspicious.
Is this Akito’s real back-up plan?
"Who is coming?" Gechi Khan raised his sword and rode on his horse, shouting loudly.
Zhu Gui raised his head and looked in the direction of the sound, with the corners of his mouth raised.
"I am the king of the Yunzhou vassal, and I am the king on behalf of you. Can I, Khan Gechi, dare to fight?"
Ganchi Khan originally just wanted to boost the morale of his defenders, but when he heard that the other party turned out to be the king of a local vassal, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Then he raised the knife and said, "Stop it."
The Mongolian defenders hesitated, but still obeyed the order.
There were already less than sixty people on Zhu Gui's side. He also asked everyone to stop, and then rode his horse to not far from Guchi Khan.
"This Khan knows that the vassal king here is Su Wang Zhu Kai, and where are you?" Gechi Khan pointed the tip of his knife at Zhu Gui and asked.
"My fiefdom is in Yunzhou, thousands of miles away from here. You and I are both commanders of one side, so why not decide this war by winning or losing?"
Zhu Gui said.
He can now kill the opponent with a sneak attack, but in this case, he will be trapped in a heavy siege. Not only are these soldiers all his hard work, but he also doesn't want to see Xu Miaoqing injured.
Gechi Khan glanced at the surrounding Mongolian defenders. They were clearly outnumbered, but there was fear in their eyes, which made him feel sad.
The Mongolian cavalry, which was once invincible in the world, actually caused Akito to have a psychological shadow?
If he doesn't agree to the other party now, I'm afraid the pride of the Mongols will be trampled to the ground by Akito.
"Okay, I promise you, if you win, I can let you go. If you lose, I can still let you go, but you have to give up Ganzhou City."
Gechi Khan pointed to the battlefield in the distance and said.
Zhu Gui smiled and said: "You have a good plan. If I win, I hope you can withdraw your troops. How about that?"
