"Losing so many people and continuing to charge, you can still fly up on horseback?"

The corners of Zhang Xinquan's mouth curled slightly, he already understood the Tatars' intentions, and it was very likely that he would rush closer to the city wall and attack the people's army on the city wall with a bow and arrow.

As the Tatar cavalry got closer and closer to the city wall, Zhang Xinquan asked the Xiandeng regiment to prepare, and as soon as the Tatars rushed closer and prepared to shoot arrows, the Xiandeng soldiers immediately stepped forward and raised their shields to shield the musketeers and artillerymen from the arrows fired by the Tatar cavalry.

For every hundred meters of Tatar cavalry they advanced, they lost five or six hundred horsemen, and the leaders of the small tribes who had already retreated to the middle of the vanguard were full of shock and heartache, and the leaders of the small tribes who had already rushed ahead were killed.

The losses of personnel are increasing, there are only a few hundred meters left from the city wall, and just retreat like this, thousands of warriors died in vain, rush, continue to rush.

"Ulla!"

Shouting "Ula", the Tatar cavalry rushed forward in a frenzy, and the Tatars on their horses clamped their legs, holding their bows in one hand and preparing to draw arrows from their quivers in the other, announcing their arrival to the enemy on the walls.

Rows of Tatar cavalry were heavily wounded by buckshot, and more Tatar cavalry rushed forward with red eyes.

It's close! It's close!

The Tatar cavalry who rushed to the forefront pulled the bowstring and shot the arrows fiercely, and hundreds of arrows in a state of projectile crossed a distance of dozens of meters and pierced the people's army on the city wall from the sky.

Jingle Bell!

This is the sound of arrows hitting the shield, in the face of the seemingly continuous rain of arrows, the first soldiers used the shields in their hands to firmly protect the musketeers and artillerymen behind them, only very, very few arrows passed through the gap between the shields and hurt the KPA soldiers.

The Tatar cavalry who rushed forward fired only one arrow each, and when they were about to storm the wall, each Tatar cavalry charged in two, half to the left and half to the right, and then turned their horses and ran north, at which point the Tatar cavalry turned and drew their bows and fired a second arrow.

What is the rain of arrows, this is the rain of arrows, the Tatar vanguard army each shot two arrows at the city wall, a total of more than 110,000 arrows were sent to the city wall by the Tatars, and on the city wall there are only more than 4,000 people in the musket regiment, heavy artillery regiment, and Xiandeng regiment of the 83rd Division of the People's Army, and each KPA soldier has to face nearly 30 arrows on average!

However, in the face of so many arrows, the KPA soldiers, under the protection of their shields, suffered no more than two hundred casualties, and when the last wave of arrows ended, the guns roared on the city walls, and the KPA began to counterattack!

Towards the retreating figure of the Tatar cavalry, waves of lead bullets and shells chased after each other, and hundreds of Tatar cavalry fell on the retreating road.

Fighting always has to kill people, and after the vanguard army of 60,000 cavalry, hundreds or thousands of dead people, scattered everywhere, the Tatar cavalry did not feel much, and when the number of dead and wounded exceeded five thousand, fear spread among the Tatar cavalry.

The Tatar cavalry who fell behind watched the others die, and whipped their horses' buttocks fiercely, hoping that their horses would run faster, as long as they ran faster than others, they would be the ones who died after they died.

"How so?"

There was also some panic in his heart, why was the enemy on the city wall so strong, and the vanguard army had thousands of casualties with just one charge, which was definitely stronger than the previous Ming army.

It was not the first time that he led the Tatar cavalry to attack the border pass, but it was the first time that he personally led so many Tatars to attack the border pass, and it was the first time that so many warriors were killed and wounded when they launched a charge against the border pass.

A vague thought came to Hai's mind: Can you really attack the land of China this time?

When the Tatar cavalry was a thousand meters away from the city wall, the KPA attack stopped, looked at the Tatar cavalry in disarray, and then looked at the bloody battlefield within a thousand meters of the city wall.

Under normal circumstances, this battle would not have been decided by who won or who lost, but judging by the number of casualties on both sides, the KPA was undoubtedly victorious.

The KPA suffered less than two hundred dead and wounded, while the Tatars definitely lost more than five thousand, which was a great victory.

If it were replaced by the original border army garrison, such a big victory would definitely be rewarded by the Ming court, which was a rare victory in recent decades, and this was only the number of dead and wounded in the Tatar cavalry charge.

The Tatar cavalry seems to have gone away, leaving nearly a thousand war horses scattered on the battlefield, and there are probably hundreds of intact war horses, according to the number of enemies killed by the People's Army, there should be thousands of war horses, but some of the war horses were heavily injured by lead bullets and cannonballs and fell to the ground, and more war horses followed the Tatar cavalry charging team away.

Being able to harvest hundreds of intact war horses is considered a good capture, the People's Army is short of war horses, and there are probably some wounded Tatars on the battlefield who have not died, in the eyes of the People's Army soldiers, the Tatars are basically a poor ghost except for cattle, horses, sheep and animal skins, and there is nothing to rob at all.

Zhang Xinquan did not rush out of the city to clean up the battlefield, and he was not sure whether the Tatars would continue to attack, the city gate slowly opened, and two groups of ten cavalry left the Bohai Institute and bypassed the battlefield to track the Tatars.

The scouts did not dare to cross the battlefield, there must be living Tatars in the battlefield, no one knows whether these Tatars still have the strength to fight, do not underestimate the archery skills of the Tatars, scouts across the battlefield should be careful of the Tatars' hidden arrows.

Moreover, cleaning the battlefield is not something that everyone can pass, it must be the first warrior with a shield to go up first to determine the life and death of the Tatars, but others will follow to clean up the battlefield area confirmed by the first warrior.

Two thousand meters north of the Bohai Army, the Tatar vanguard army slowed down, and the leaders of the tribes in the vanguard army came to the front of Sujianghai angrily, and the vanguard army killed and wounded so many people just by charging at the Bohai Institute, almost one-tenth of the total number of the vanguard army, and many people died in the various tribes that joined the vanguard army.

Each young man is the most important component of the tribe, if they all die in the battlefield, the tribe will soon disappear in the steppe, be swallowed up by other tribes, and their own women, cattle, horses and sheep will become people, no one wants to see this scene.

"Hurry up, it's not that we can easily fight it, why do we have so many warriors dying in just one charge?" A tribal leader asked.

Su Jianghai was silent, he didn't know why this happened, this was the first time he had encountered it, and the enemy in front of him was also the first time he had encountered it, it seemed that this enemy was stronger than the Ming army.

One leader after another quickly targeted the angry Hai, and quickly silenced Hai for a while before saying: "Now is our best opportunity, neither I nor you are willing to let go of this opportunity, this is just an accident, let's wait, wait for the team to transport the ladder to come, we will attack the city directly, the enemy can't stop us!" ”

The leaders agreed, and indeed they would not retreat easily.
