On the afternoon of the fifth day, Wu Zhiyang drove hundreds of cattle, horses, and sheep back to the Bohai Institute, where he was warmly welcomed by his comrades-in-arms of the 83rd Division.

On the afternoon of the sixth day, two companies of the Lancer Division escorted more than 40 Tatars and 1,000 cattle, horses, and sheep back to the Bohai Station, which was also warmly welcomed by the comrades-in-arms of the 83rd Division.

Before dark, there was also a spear group sent by Tian Zhe who returned to Bohai with the battle report of the lancer division.

Killed 1,200 enemies, captured 3,000 prisoners, captured more than 50,000 cattle, horses and sheep, and won a great victory!

Wang Shengrong has been staying in the Bohai Institute since the Lancer Division left the Bohai Institute and entered the prairie, and he saw the battle report for the first time, and looking at the content of the battle report, Wang Shengrong's heart could not calm down.

Killing 1,200 enemies and capturing 3,000 prisoners was only a small-scale battle for the People's Army, which had been fighting against the Ming Dynasty, with tens of thousands of participants in medium-sized battles and hundreds of thousands of large-scale combatants.

Wang Shengrong attached great importance to the more than 50,000 cattle, horses, and sheep that had been captured, including more than 40,000 sheep, more than 7,000 horses, and more than 4,000 cattle.

The more horses the better, the KPA will be able to form more lancer divisions, ten or more lancer divisions, and wipe out the Tatars and Warats, and their cattle and horses will be owned by the KPA, and the KPA will no longer be short of cattle and horses.

The livestock matter was put aside for the time being, and the captured 3,000 Tatars needed to think carefully, and a decision had been made within the People's Army that all adult males and males close to adulthood would be reduced to coolies, and roads and water conservancy facilities would be built for the People's Army, and adult women would be concubines for Chinese men, and women who were close to adulthood would be the same.

Other old people, children, and the sick and disabled were given some food and a few tools, and all of them were sent to the isolated island.

The only problem is that adult women and near-adult women are not allowed to give them away for free, and if they are not outnumbered and suffer from inequality, the KPA will give them away for free, so that other people who have not received Tatar women may have other ideas.

If you can't give it away for free, you need to spend money to buy it, and this kind of thing can't happen to the People's Army, you need one or several chambers of commerce to come out, and the People's Army will hand over all the captured Tatar women to these chambers of commerce, and the chambers of commerce will first teach these Tatar women the language, peasant skills, etc., and then sell them to those who need them, so that they can be used as an adult labor force.

The People's Military Government has set a very high tax rate on chambers of commerce that carry out the industry.

The main thing is that there is nothing wrong with the KPA.

Also on the evening of the sixth day, when the Lancer Division entered the steppes, the Tatar cavalry under Buyan Chechen Khan was getting closer and closer to the Lancer Division, and a great battle was expected to break out tomorrow morning.

At the time of departure, Buyan Chechen Khan had a total of 8,000 cavalry, and now the 8,000 Tatar cavalry had increased to 11,000 cavalry, more than double the number of the Lancer Division.

The Lancer Division has noticed that such a large group of Tatar cavalry is approaching, and the alert state has been raised to the highest level, tonight is the most dangerous time, as long as the Tatars do not attack at night, Tian Zhe will be sure enough to defeat the Tatars during the day tomorrow.

Silent all night, the Tatars did not attack the Lancer Division in the dark.

When a new day arrives, after a simple breakfast, the Lancer Division continues to escort the captives to drive cattle, horses and sheep to the south, and always be ready for battle, the battle will come when it is not needed, it is a big battle.

Buyan Chechen Khan divided the 11,000 Tatar cavalry into three lines, left, center, and right, and Buyan Chechen Khan personally led the Chinese army with 5,000 cavalry to attack the lancer division from the front, and 3,000 cavalry on the left and right flanks, surrounding the lancer division from both sides.

When the two sides were five kilometers apart, the Lancer Division had already assembled in battalions, with 3,000 prisoners in the middle area, Wu Wanzhi's cattle, horses and sheep outside, and lancers on the outermost periphery.

"Report to the division commander, the enemy soldiers are divided into three routes, with more than 5,000 horsemen on the middle road and more than 3,000 horsemen on the left and right roads."

According to the scout's report, Tian Zhe basically determined that the enemy would attack the lancer division head-on in the middle of the road, and the left and right roads would outflank the lancer division, and then the lancer division would change formation, with the first regiment, the second regiment and the division headquarters totaling 2,300 cavalry in the north, half of the fourth regiment and the third regiment guarding the west side with a total of 1,300 cavalry, and the fifth regiment and half of the third regiment with a total of 1,300 cavalry guarding the east side.

Three thousand meters

Two kilometers

The tactics of the Tatars attacking the center and outflanking them on the left and right did not change.

Fifteen hundred meters

1,200 meters

"Dismount!"

The lancers dismounted and stood in three columns in front of their horses, quickly reloading their muskets.

By the time the lancers were ready, the nearest Tatar was less than a thousand meters away from the lancers.

Eight hundred meters

Seven hundred meters

"Fire!"

On the frontal battlefield, in an instant, more than 750 buckshot bullets charged at a distance of nearly 700 meters, and the Tatar cavalry fired.

The caliber of the Tiger Head Gun was 16 mm, and the lead bullets fired by the musket were unimaginably powerful, even if they did not hit the vital position of the horse, it was enough to make a Tatar cavalry lose the ability to continue charging.

Buckshot collided head-on with the Tatar cavalry, when even more than six hundred Tatar cavalry fell on the battlefield.

Almost at the rear of the Tatar cavalry, Buyan Chechen Khan, because the Tatar cavalry in front had not yet seen this scene, if he saw this scene, he would definitely remember the scene of himself leading a large army to attack the border pass, and would order the withdrawal of the army as soon as possible.

At an interval of about three seconds, the second wave of lead bullets hit, and about three seconds later, the third wave of lead bullets struck, and in less than ten seconds, the three waves of lead bullets directly caused nearly 1,900 Tatar cavalry on the frontal battlefield to lose their combat effectiveness.

"No!"

When Buyan Chechen Khan finally saw his cavalry being shot from afar, he roared angrily, but he could not recover the death of so many Tatar warriors.

"Retreat, retreat!"

Buyan Chechen Khan roared and gave the order to retreat, but how could the Tatar cavalry in the charging state turn to retreat so easily, only the Tatar cavalry at the back of the charging team could stop the horses one after another, turn the horse's head and start retreating, and Buyan Chechen Khan was also one of the first Tatar cavalry to retreat.

After the end of the fourth wave of lead bullets, the Tatar cavalry in front completed the first 90-degree turn, and the fifth wave of lead bullets ended, and the Tatar cavalry retreated from the original charge to the south and retreated to the north.

When the Tatars rushed out of the 700-meter range of the lancer muskets, the lancers sent three waves of lead bullets to the Tatar cavalry.

Eight waves of lead bullets went down, and only a few of the 5,000 Tatar cavalry on the frontal battlefield managed to escape with less than 800 horsemen, and the Tatar cavalry never approached the 300-meter range of the lancers.
