Chapter 142: The Tartar Rout
After being beaten by the artillery, the Tartars were in great confusion.
They wanted to withdraw their troops, but the eastern captivity of Azig was in the rear, and they would definitely not be spared.
As soon as the Great Khan of the Tartars gave the order to retreat five hundred paces, he saw the gates of the city wide open and a cavalry force out of the gates.
Field warfare has always been the strength of the Tartars, and seeing that the Ming army actually dared to go out of the city, the Tartar Khan gave an order and prepared to fight to the death with Yue Fei.
However, the Tartars were retreating in a panic, and it was difficult to gather popularity for a while, and they were killed dozens of people by the Great Khan in a row, and they turned their horses to kill the Ming army.
Angelao thought that he could easily defeat the Ming cavalry, but when the two armies collided violently, he realized that things were different from what he had imagined.
The Mengyuan Iron Cavalry under his command was cut off from their horses as soon as they confronted the Ming cavalry, and they couldn't resist the rapid impact of the Ming cavalry.
The cavalry under Yue Fei's command, although not as strong as the Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, is also the elite under the command of the former Zuo Liangyu and Huang Degong, and they are all old oil soldiers.
Later, under Yue Fei's personal training, coupled with rewards and strict military regulations, he was reborn a long time ago, and his combat effectiveness was improved by several grades.
In particular, their sabers are all famous Mo knives in history, and compared with the Mo knives, the Tartar chopping knives are not at the same level at all.
"Hold on, hold on to Ben Khan, don't you want sheep anymore?"
Angelao waved his scimitar in the rear, shouting to encourage the Tartar cavalry, but the Ming cavalry rampaged all the way under the leadership of Yue Fei, and the Tartars who only killed screamed screaming.
Especially Yue Fei, the Liquan Divine Spear flew up and down, hitting, smashing, picking, stabbing, sweeping, all kinds of actions and killing methods, and the blood of the Tartar who was killed flowed like a river.
Ten meters beside Yue Fei had almost become a forbidden place for the Tartars, and wherever he went, the dead corpses of the Tartars were piled up on the ground.
Soon behind the Ming cavalry, another army was killed, all holding Mo knives and shields and rushing up, and some of the injured Tartars who fell off their horses were killed by them.
Tartar cavalry rushed at them, and the sword and shield men did not fight alone, but five or six shields were put together and slammed violently against the horses.
The Tartars' horses were knocked to the ground by them, and their heads were cut off with a single sword.
There were many Tartar cavalry, and they didn't dare to face Yue Fei and the Ming cavalry anymore, and their goals turned to the sword and shield soldiers.
However, the sword and shield soldiers of the Longteng Army did not panic, and under the command of the commander and the centurion, the sword and shield soldiers were in groups of fifteen and quickly squatted to the ground.
Many shields were combined to form many oblique shield walls, directly facing the onslaught of the Tartar cavalry.
The cavalry that rushed up was quickly overturned to the ground by them, and in an instant, many Mo knives were slashed at them, and they quickly turned into a pile of meat puree.
If you are lucky enough to escape and have not been overturned, don't rejoice too soon, and soon they will find that their horses have mutilated limbs, turn over and fall.
Tartars who fall to the ground have serious consequences, either chopped into pulp or their heads cut off.
This is a new tactic specially set up by Yue Fei for the Longteng saber and shield soldiers, mainly for the tactics of cavalry impact, which is called the dog formation.
If the cavalry did not attack, this method of warfare would be meaningless, and they would simply not be able to catch up with the four legs of the cavalry.
But the infantry is still killed in seconds, no matter whether the opposing infantry is actively attacking or passively beaten, there is only one way in front of the dragon saber and shield soldiers, and that is a dead end.
The Dragon Teng Army crushed all the way, and the sword and shield soldiers followed.
The two armies cooperated with each other, and everywhere they passed, there was no grass growing in them, and the blood of the Tartars killed flowed like rivers, and the battlefield became a sea of corpses and blood.
On the top of the city
At the strong request of Wei Hui, Erniu Li Qing and others, the remaining soldiers of the Longteng Army carried them on their backs and came to the city to watch the battle.
Several iron-blooded soldiers were immediately shocked by the strong combat effectiveness of the Dragon Teng Army.
Wei Hui:
"God has finally opened his eyes, when did my Ming army crush the Tartars so strongly, at least we have never seen it before today."
Li Qing:
"Yes, unilateral crushing, this is not a battle, this is a massacre, it's too enjoyable, the Ming army is mighty, and my Ming Dynasty is completely victorious."
"The Ming Army is Mighty"
"The Ming Army Wins"
"Expelling the Tartars"
"Flattening the Prairie"
……
Under the rendering of several wounded soldiers, the Ming troops at the head of the city waved their weapons and shouted in unison, cheering for the comrades fighting under the city.
The sky that shook with a bang was buzzing, and the soldiers of the Dragon Teng Army who were slashing with their swords suddenly boiled like blood and burst out with stronger combat power.
While they were beheading the Tartars, they also shouted, echoing the Ming army at the head of the city.
Not only were the Tartar cavalry dumbfounded, but even the Eastern Raider Clans were deeply shocked by this formation, and they suddenly lost the little combat power they had left, and fled in an instant.
"Withdraw, withdraw quickly......"
Seeing that the general situation was gone, Angelao panicked and ordered a retreat in order to save his men.
In fact, when he shouted to retreat, the Tartar cavalry and the Eastern Raider army had already begun to rout and flee.
Yue Fei's white robe had already been stained red with blood, of course, it was all the blood of the Tartars, and when he saw the rout of the Tartars, he raised his gun in the air:
"Soldiers of the Dragon Teng Army, follow the Pontus Governor to hunt down and kill the Tartars, and today this grassland will be the place where they will be buried."
"Yes, kill all the Tartars, brothers!"
The cavalry of the Daming Longteng Army shouted in unison, quickly followed the pursuit, and the sword and shield soldiers supplemented the swords in the back, taking advantage of the situation to harvest another wave of Tartar heads.
Wei Hui and Li Qing Erniu hid their faces with their hands and cried bitterly.
They were proud of the Ming army, and they couldn't help but burst into tears, and they also felt sorry for those brothers who died in battle.
Those who fled for their lives always ran faster than those who pursued them, and the Long Teng army chased and killed for a while, watching the Tartar gradually move away, Yue Fei ordered:
"Stop the pursuit, clean up the battlefield, and count the battle losses of the Dragon Teng Army."
An army of 30,000 Tartars, in the end, only a few thousand people fled, and the others were all killed, and the Great Khan of the Tartars looked back to see that the Ming pursuers were finally thrown off, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
But in an instant, he lowered his head again, and his spirit was extremely low.
Tens of thousands of horses, now there are less than 5,000 people left, and in today's battle, his tribe will not be able to recover its combat strength within 20 years.
Under Azig's suppression, almost all the young men of his tribe were brought in, and only some of the old, weak, sick, disabled, women and children were left in the family.
At present, we can only rely on these thousands of people to find a safe place to start the man-making movement, otherwise the tribe will disappear in the long river of history.
"Great Khan, your cavalry combat strength is too poor, those Ming dogs who were defeated by a single impact of our Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers can actually make you almost annihilated, and now there are only these men and horses left to fight, a group of useless things."
Niu Lu, the Eastern Governor of the warband, felt that there was no way to explain to Azig, so he urged the horse to come to Anjilao and scold.
Angelao almost fainted, he had the heart to kill him, but he didn't dare to say a word, he was not the opponent of the Eastern Exile before, and now he has no capital to resist.
"Bang Bang ......"
Suddenly, a gunshot rang out, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared on the head of the Eastern Kidnapper, and his body shook twice on the war horse, and the dead body fell from the war horse.
