Chapter 846: Meat Always Gets Rotten in the Pot

Trove grabbed the spies in front of him and confirmed, "Are you sure that the camp of the Tatar cavalry is ahead?" Are you sure you can't go wrong? ”

The spy said helplessly: "I'm very sure, I promise not to be wrong!" ”

Actually, there was no need for the spy to answer, and the rumbling explosion had already proved that the spy was not taking the wrong path.

Not only Trove was stunned, but Alkimir and the others who came with him also fell into a state of bewilderment, and they didn't see them throw out iron bumps at all, how could this kind of explosion happen? Where did it come from?

The fire soon lit up, and shadowy cavalry began to emerge in the light of the fire not far away.

No matter how stupid and brainless Seryosha and the others are, they can see that they have been ambushed by others.

Alkimir grabbed Seryosha: "Now that the situation is unknown, should we withdraw first?" ”

Carpenter said: "It's too late, let's retreat, they will definitely hunt us down, what can we take advantage of at night?"

Now it's better to rush straight in, how much can they bury that kind of thing that can explode in the ground? If you bury too much, it will affect them to hunt us down! So, the best thing to do now is to fight for a few casualties, rush in, and kill them all! ”

Alkimir sneered: "But now people are on guard!" We planned to attack them while they were unprepared, and now that people are on guard, the sneak attack will lose its suddenness, it is meaningless, and there will be no time if you don't leave! ”

When Seryosha was still struggling, Trove had already made a decision for him, relying on the enough people brought by his side, Trove simply rushed in with a team of 1,000 people under his command.

The shouts of killing followed.

The war horses roared past, some were frightened by the sound of explosions, some were frightened by the sound of shouting and killing, some were not frightened at all but were coerced and rushed in, and some were the "good families" of the Ming Dynasty who had been prepared for a long time.

Daming's definition of a good family is very simple, if you have land and no criminal record, then it is a good family, and it doesn't matter if the family has money or not.

Obviously, these "good families" brought by Meng Xianglin must have no criminal record in the arrest of laborers, even if the murder of foreign laborers on their hands cannot be regarded as a criminal record.

These "no criminal record" good family sons are all proficient in the technique of killing, otherwise they would have been killed a long time ago, and they would not have survived to this day.

And there is a more important reason, that is, after opening the history books of China's 5,000 years, you will find that there is not much time without war.

Because of the long-term war, there are more conspiracies and tricks, and if you are bad, you have to prevent others from being bad, and your ancestors like to play night raids, so you have to prevent others from playing night raids.

The experience passed down from generation to generation is very useful, and these killers have not relaxed their vigilance just because the enemy is a barbarian, and they should have made sufficient preparations to prevent night attacks.

Use it now.

A pile of fires burned in the distance, and the torches in the hands of these cavalrymen were thrown aside, saving them from being released with cold arrows because the target was too big, these are the experiences passed down by the ancestors, and they can save lives at critical moments!

Meng Xianglin sat on the horse in armor and said to Wan Yan next to him: "How about getting old, I just said that these barbarians will come to attack at night, right?" ”

Wan Yanli nodded and said, "Okay, you are right once." So what do you say, what will happen to these barbarians? ”

A hideous look flashed from Meng Xianglin's face: "Either arrest them and sell them, or kill them, what about them?" ”

Seryosha's intestines were about to turn green.

The Cossack cavalry in Europe is synonymous with the Lienin, whether it is against the enemy army or civilians, they will not care about the life and death of the other party, but this does not mean that the Cossack cavalry does not care about their own life and death.

In fact, the more brutal a person is, the more he cares about his life.

As soon as Trove rushed in with a team of thousands, a carpenter who was on the same line as Trove also rushed in, leaving Seryosha and Alkimir looking at each other from behind.

After staring at it in a daze for a long time, Seryosha suddenly sighed: "You go, take your own soldiers as far as possible, don't come back." ”

Alkimir was stunned: "What about you?" ”

Seryosha said: "It was me and Prokofei who brought them out, and I couldn't bring them back, so I could only be with them."

But you can't stay, we still have people, you have to take them west, go as far as possible, far away from these Tatars, better run to a place where the Tatars can't reach. ”

Without further explanation to Alkimir, Seryosha rushed in with his Cossack cavalry.

If you can save more people, it means that you still have hope to compete with those Tatars, and if you can't save people, then you can die with them.

Alkimir was not a fool either, and after Seryosha explained what was going on, Alkimir directly took his own soldiers and turned around and ran away.

In fact, there is no need for Xie Liao to explain at all, in the current situation, as long as you are not a fool, you can see that there is no help, and there is no good way except to wait for death.

The legendary whip of God is still the whip of God, and although the legendary invincible Golden Horde is gone, these Tatars seem to have regained their original strength.

At the beginning, it was forced by the Golden Horde to have no choice, and the Cossacks were born later......

Run, there is no shame in escaping from under the hands of the Tatars, on the contrary, it is a very honorable thing to be able to successfully escape from the hands of the Tatars, enough to brag about the rest of your life.

Looking at Alkimir and the others in the distance, Wan Yanli couldn't help but speak: "Just let them run away like this?" ”

Meng Xianglin, who even sent out his own soldiers, sneered before saying, "If you can run, the monk can't run the temple!" There are too many barbarians rushing in now, a little more than we expected, although it is about the same, but it is not easy to say if there are more of them.

So let's let them run, it's just a matter of catching them a day earlier or a day later. For now, let's deal with these barbarians who rushed in first. ”

Wan Yanli nodded, then put down the telescope in his hand, picked up a whistle and blew it.

The shrill whistle of different lengths gradually spread out amid the shouts of killing, and since it caused a burst of shouts on the battlefield, the killers began to move slowly.

Trove suddenly felt the pressure in front of him, and when he came to his senses, he found that all the Tatar cavalry had retreated far away, forming a large encirclement around his men, and in the middle there were several groups of Tatar infantry armed with muskets.

Trove, who was already desperate, suddenly had a surge of hope in his heart.

The cavalry can't help it, their side is really not dominant, but what about the infantry? Once the cavalry has picked up the speed, what good can the infantry do other than face the slaughter?

It seems that the huge difference in numbers between the two sides made these Tatars feel the pressure, and they had to withdraw the cavalry and replace the infantry to the front.

As for the musket, although the lethality is not small, but the shooting speed is slow, and the reloading is troublesome, unless it is a three-stage or even a four-stage shot, otherwise this thing is not as lethal as a bow and arrow.

Besides, at such a close distance, even if they want to play three dan, I'm afraid they won't have so much time to prepare!

After smirking and glancing at each other with Seryosha and Carpenter, Trove led his men towards the infantry.

It is true that as Trove expected, these good sons brought by Meng Xianglin did use three-stage strikes, but unlike the traditional three-stage strikes, the first row simply lay on the ground and never got up, the second row has always taken a kneeling position and has not changed, and the third has always taken a standing posture and has not changed.

There was no such thing as a slow reload as Troff had imagined, and the muskets barely stopped from the moment they rang out.

Three hundred Ming infantry struck a blow at the Cossack cavalry of almost three thousand people, and the results were impressive.

As soon as the shots rang out, the cavalry in the first row found that they had lost control of their horses, and were thrown into the air by their horses, and some of the lucky ones were hit by musket bullets just as they were about to land.

The reason why it is said that the lucky ones who were hit by the muskets were because they were so lucky compared to the unlucky ones who were not hit by the muskets that most of them were trampled to death by the horses that followed behind.

After the cavalry of two or three rows fell to the ground, the Cossack cavalry behind lost the opportunity to increase the speed of the horses, and the horses and comrades in front of them were heavily wounded and blocked the way, making the whole road extremely difficult to walk, and even the flat ground could not be compared.

As for retreating, there was no idea of retreating in anyone's mind.

If the cavalry of about two people wants to retreat, it is basically equivalent to handing over their backs to the Tatar musketeers on the opposite side, and it is still a death except death, and there will be no second possibility at all.

Trove hung up, and Seryosha and Carpenter, who were stuck behind and unable to advance, suddenly lost the courage to die together.

Trov failed to achieve the planned night attack, nor did he bring any casualties to Meng Xianglin's killers, but instead died under an inconspicuous bullet, and died silently.

Even if the two of them wanted to continue charging with these Cossack cavalrymen, would there be a second possibility besides death? Obviously, there is no second possibility at all.

The words of surrender swirled in the throats of the two, but no one wanted to say it first, and the atmosphere was frozen for a while.

In normal times, the atmosphere would not be a big deal, but now on the battlefield, every minute and every second of their former comrades die under the guns of the Tatars.

Seryosha finally couldn't hold back, sighed and said: "Announce my order, lay down your arms, dismount and surrender!" ”

Carpenter quickly passed Seryosha's order, and the remaining Cossack cavalry also carried Seryosha's order well, and after turning underneath, he quickly raised his weapon above his head, signaling that he had given up resistance and was ready to surrender.

Wan Yanli pursed his lips and said, "You still think it's so tough, you can't hold it now?" ”

Meng Xianglin sighed and said, "I remember that when I was studying in the Lecture Martial Arts Hall, the instructor once talked about some cases in history, which was very interesting.

Historically, many armies have basically lost more than 10 percent casualties, and when they have more than 20 percent casualties, they are basically defeated.

In fact, even my Ming guard's office is the same.

The only time there were heavy casualties, with a casualty rate of more than 40 percent, was when His Majesty fought a frontal battle with Lin Dan Khan during his northern expedition to Lin Dan Khan.

But that encounter was not of any reference value, because His Majesty was there, and he was leading the charge, which had an immeasurable morale-boosting effect.

In fact, even the instructors of the martial arts hall said that if other generals were to take command, the outcome of that encounter would likely be a major rout.

Including the later major wars in which His Majesty personally participated, such as the battle of Leshi Grassland, it is also for the same reason, and there is no reference value.

As for the other wars, because I have never suffered such large casualties at all, there is no way to judge where the limit of my Da Ming Wei is.

From this point of view, it can only be said that God blesses the Ming Dynasty, otherwise if it is replaced by other generals, the elite of the Ming Dynasty may be folded in, which will greatly hurt the vitality.

The casualty rate of these barbarians in front of them is now more than 10 percent, and the more than 2,000 people who rushed in have died four or five hundred, can they still hold on?

Especially now, their commander has ordered surrender, but I am afraid that Zhao Kuo will be resurrected, and there will be no way to lead them into battle again. ”

Wan Yanli nodded and said, "I hope that Da Ming will never know where this bottom limit is!" ”

Meng Xianglin also nodded: "Although I am also curious, I also don't want to know this bottom limit. In other words, there should never be such an opportunity to test this limit, and it is better not to have it in the future. ”

Wan Yanli patted Meng Xianglin on the shoulder and said, "There shouldn't be any more, let's arrest all the barbarians, and the military government will kill all the barbarians, and our future generations will never have to face this problem." ”

Meng Xianglin suddenly laughed at himself and said, "Without the enemy, can't your own people become enemies?" War is not going away at any time, it just depends on who the enemy is. ”

Wan Yanli was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly smiled: "Didn't Your Majesty say that the meat is always rotten in the pot, even if one day your own people beat your own people, it will not be like now, it is better than us." ”

The battlefield had already quieted down at this time, and Wan Yanli no longer persuaded Meng Xianglin, but just picked up the whistle again and blew it.
