"Attack! Offensive! ”

Sun Xu, the chief officer of Pingyang Town, saw that the Tartar army on the battlefield on the left flank began to retreat, so he immediately led his troops to follow up and entangle the enemy at all costs.

"Artillery! Boom me! ”

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

The artillery attached to the Tiger Ben Army had just roared for a while, and then there was no more sound, Sun Xu was suddenly furious, and roared: "Fire!" What a situation! ”

General Manager Qian of the Artillery Department hurriedly ran over and said, "Qiqi Town, the shells have all been exhausted!" ”

"What!"

Sun Xu's eyes were red, and then he remembered that in this battle, the artillery attached to him had never stopped bombarding, so he shouted loudly: "The whole army is pressing!" Kill me! ”

Sun Xu gave an order, and all the Tiger Ben troops charged, and even the soldiers of the artillery department and the baggage department also brandished their swords and killed them.

At the same time, the Shaanxi town rout soldiers who have withdrawn to the rear have also regathered, and these soldiers are full of anger in their hearts, especially the chief general of Shaanxi Town, Niu Linghe, who was killed, according to the Ming military law, these Shaanxi town soldiers will be severely punished after the war, especially those guards of the Chinese army, basically have to be beheaded, unless they make great contributions in the battle.

At this time, the Tiger Ben Army has rushed up with the whole army, biting the soldiers and horses of the palace of the Tartar Iron Cavalry on the left wing, these Shaanxi town soldiers under the leadership of their respective generals, also launched a charge, these soldiers who have been fighting for a long time, are ready to use their lives to wash away the shame and avenge the main general!

The battle continued, the 50,000 Tartar heavy armored iron cavalry army on the left flank of the battlefield had been exhausted, whether it was a soldier or a war horse, the fierce battle was exhausted at this time, coupled with the entanglement between the Tiger Ben Army and the soldiers and horses of Shaanxi Town, the casualties of these heavy armored iron cavalry began to increase sharply, and the 50,000 army had lost nearly 20,000 horses, and the entire army began to fall into decline!

Moreover, these heavy armored iron cavalry of the Duo Huo Ti Department are very physically exhausting troops, if they cannot defeat the enemy in a short period of time and fall into a long fierce battle, these heavy armored iron cavalry will fall into a very dangerous situation, and the physical strength of men and horses will be very small, and they will even be killed by the enemy.

At this time, Sun Xu led the Huben army and the soldiers and horses of Shaanxi Town to abandon the formation, and directly rushed into the heavy armored iron cavalry formation of the Duohuo Rati Division, and fought with the Tartar iron cavalry, constantly consuming the enemy's troops.

Once the Iron Cavalry loses speed, especially the heavily armored Iron Cavalry, it will become a live target for the infantry army!

I saw that on the battlefield, the Tiger Ben Army and the soldiers of Shaanxi Town were usually several, or even a dozen people, besieging three or five Tartar iron horses, these Tartar iron horses could not move away in the dense crowd at all, and could only ride on war horses in vain to engage in battle, and under the pressure of heavy armor, the physical strength of these Hu soldiers began to flow rapidly, and it didn't take long for them to be exhausted, and then they were torn off their horses by the soldiers of the Ming army and killed one by one!

The situation on the battlefield on the left flank was reversed in an instant, and Sun Xu, the commander-in-chief of Pingyang Town, withstood the onslaught of 50,000 heavily armored iron cavalry of the Huorati Division with almost the same force, and won the victory, and began to pursue with the victory.

At the same time, the situation on the battlefield of the right flank was also reversed!

The 50,000 light cavalry of the Hung Ti Department on the battlefield on the right flank was also very moved, and in the fierce battle with the 90,000 captive army and tens of thousands of servant troops, these light cavalry had already lost thousands of soldiers and horses.

Tens of thousands of servant troops saw the opportunity and continued to launch a group charge towards the light cavalry of the Duohuorati Division in a group of hundreds of iron cavalry, and the captive army that had already gathered the queue also regrouped and followed behind the servant army iron cavalry to launch a counterattack.

Soon a one-sided situation was formed on the battlefield on the right flank, with tens of thousands of servant troops and more than 30,000 regrouped captive troops, almost crushing nearly 40,000 light cavalry of the Duohuo Rati Division that were dispersing!

These Duohuo Ti light cavalry has been in turmoil, the previous attack on the captive army when using cavalry skills, has greatly consumed the physical strength of the army's soldiers and horses, and the arrows carried by the army are also exhausted, can not be replenished in time on the battlefield, at this time the army is in chaos, in the face of well-equipped servant army iron cavalry, these Duo Huo Ti light cavalry is not able to hedge head-on, can only continue to retreat.

"Qi Qi Bingxian, the left and right wing Tartar iron cavalry army has been defeated, the left wing tiger army, Shaanxi town soldiers and horses, the right wing servant army, and the captive army are in pursuit!"

A team of soldiers who did not collect at night reported the battle situation on the left and right flanks of the battlefield, and Liu Juntao breathed a sigh of relief.

Liu Zi'an, Xiang Qun, Huang Wu, Lan Siqi, Zhang Yuqing and others around him also celebrated and congratulated Liu Juntao.

Liu Juntao said: "Since this victory opportunity has appeared, then our army must take advantage of the victory to pursue, immediately encircle and annihilate the Tartars, and strive to complete its work in one battle, and gather all the troops of the Duohuo Rati Army here!" ”

"Yes!"

Therefore, Liu Juntao ordered the Tiger Army, Shaanxi Town Soldiers, Servant Army, and Captive Army on the left and right flank battlefields to attack with all their might, and encircled and annihilated the enemy troops on the left and right flanks of the battlefield at all costs.

At the same time, Liu Juntao ordered all units of the Tiance Army on the middle battlefield to concentrate their firepower and annihilate the Tartar infantry army on the middle battlefield as soon as possible.

After the orders were conveyed one after another, the officers and men of the Tiance Army, who were fighting on the battlefield in the middle, accelerated the pace of the attack.

The officers and men of the three armies of the Eagle Yang Army, the Zhechong Army, and the Vietnamese Cavalry Army have completed the division and encirclement of the Tatar infantry army, and now the encirclement and annihilation battle is underway, and more than 40,000 Tatar infantry troops have been divided and surrounded, and it is only a matter of time before they are defeated.

And Tao Jixin and Bai Yuxing also led the soldiers of the Longxiang Army to kill the large array of the Chinese army of the Duohuo Ratti Division, especially the more than 4,000 iron cavalry soldiers led by Tao Jixin, who had already bitten the guards and horses of the Duohuo Rati Army, so that the patriarch Bayanke had to retreat at the same time, after the three thousand elite soldiers and horses were broken, he took the remaining three thousand elite guards to retreat first.

Tao Jixin was also anxious when he saw this, but the more than 4,000 iron cavalry soldiers led by him had been fighting for a long time, and all the soldiers were very tired, and they could not break through the elite resistance of the 3,000 Chinese troops in front of him in a short period of time, so they could only watch the patriarch Bayankra lead his troops to escape.

"Blow the trumpet! Trumpet! ”

Tao Jixin yelled in a hurry, and reported to the main force of Bai Yuxing's Longxiang Army, which was rushing from the rear.

Bai Yuxing also saw that the banner of the patriarch Bayankra was withdrawing, and hurriedly led his troops to bypass the battlefield in front of him, pursuing the 3,000 men and horses of the patriarch Bayankra's department.

But the main force of the Longxiang army led by Bai Yuxing was too far away from the patriarch Bayankra's department, and there were constantly Tartar soldiers and horses rushing out to block the attack along the way, constantly delaying the pursuit speed of the Longxiang army's soldiers, and finally failed to catch up with the patriarch Bayankra's department, and could only watch the patriarch Bayankra successfully escape.

When Liu Juntao learned the news that the patriarch of the Duohuorati tribe, Bayankla, led thousands of soldiers and horses to escape, he also sighed, but in this battle, the Duohuorati Department had already exerted all their strength, and the officers and soldiers of the Ming army were all suffering huge casualties.

Thinking of this, Liu Juntao issued several orders in succession, mobilizing the officers and men of all units of the Ming army to encircle and annihilate the remnants of the enemy on the left flank, right flank, and middle of the battlefield, and strive to behead the enemy to the greatest extent.

The bloody battle continued, but at this time the bloody battle was already a one-sided slaughter, and the remnants of the Tartars had no strength to fight back, so they could only be slaughtered.

At night, the battlefield that had been noisy all day finally fell silent, and the soldiers and horses fell in one day on the field dozens of miles southwest of Tiemen Pass, dyeing the earth bright red.

At this time, in the big tent of the Ming army, the battle losses and results of this battle have been counted, and the head of the military department is reporting to the group.

"More than 11,000 soldiers were killed in Shaanxi Town in this battle, and the chief general Niu Ling, the chief soldier of Shaanxi Town, and 19 people, including the general and the general, were killed;"

"More than 34,000 prisoners of war were killed, and more than 3,800 servants were killed;"

"In this battle, the Tiger Army lost 2,600 people, the Eagle Yang Army lost 1,300 people, the Zhichong Army lost more than 800 people, the Yue Cavalry Army lost more than 1,700 people, and the Long Xiang Army lost more than 1,000 people."

Speaking of this, Xiang Jun's face turned pale, and he said in a deep voice: "In this battle, our army has lost more than 58,000 troops!" ”

After speaking, everyone in the big tent of the Chinese army was silent, more than 58,000 soldiers were killed in the first battle, and the chief military officer of a town was killed, which was the largest loss of the Ming army since the start of the war!

Now, the strength of the Ming army, plus the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp stationed in the rear, and the Changshui army that raided Kuxian City, there are still about 23 or 40,000 left, which has been lost by more than half!

Although the Ming army suffered huge losses in this battle, the results were also huge.

Xiang Qun continued: "In this battle, our army annihilated 62,000 iron cavalry of the Duohuorati tribe, annihilated more than 63,000 foot soldiers of the Duohuorati tribe, and beheaded more than 125,000 people in total. ”

The death of more than 58,000 soldiers of the Ming army, in exchange for the result of beheading 125,000 Tartars, can be regarded as a huge victory, after all, the opponent of this battle is not the lonely Hu tribe like Turpan, but the first powerful clan in the Western Regions comparable to the Tatar and Warat tribes.

However, Liu Juntao was very dissatisfied with such a record, and it was not much different from the expected results in his heart, and he was even more angry in his heart.

"The army is encamped here, waiting for the battle report of the Changshui Army, and all departments are ready to go south to support at any time!"

"From tomorrow, the iron cavalry of all departments will be stationed in a centralized manner, ready to fight south at any time!"

"Order!"
