At this time, the Mongols did not dare to be rampant, and they treated Tian Xian and them cautiously, and many cavalrymen dismounted and carefully led the war horses to walk.

Mongolian cavalry Shult is the commander of this Mongolian army, one of the commanders, because of the identity of the Manchu canonized Dutong level, so it is much higher than other Mongolian cavalry generals, equivalent to the highest military general of a province, but not the highest military governor, the highest military commander is the admiral, is the Manchu people, but as the Manchu Qing is weakened day by day, a large number of generals died in battle, can lead the army to fight, and there are not many generals who are willing to come out to fight, so he led so many Mongolian cavalry to pursue Tian Bin's rebels.

Ten thousand commanders, this is a kind of military system of the Mongols in the past, generally can lead 10,000 people, but sometimes it is only a position, title, and it is also called 10,000 commanders with 5,000 people.

Due to the decline of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, many Mongols involuntarily reverted to this title, everyone called each other the general who led thousands of soldiers and horses as the commander of the ten thousand horses, and now he really led his own tribe, the 11,000 cavalry of the Horqin Mongols, so the commander of the ten thousand is worthy of the name.

Seeing that the Han rebels had lost 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command through several conspiracies, Schulte jumped up and scolded, but he was helpless, and the enemy ignored him at all.

"******, ******, where did you die, come here, come here." Schulte shouted loudly.

A rugged-looking, bearded man, with a sallow face, a slender figure with white eyes, and very long arms and sturdy Mongols hurriedly urged the war horse to trot to Schulte's side from dozens of meters away, "Lord Dutong, what is the villain?" ”

Schulte shouted: "******, take your enemies around and see where you can get around, detour behind the Han army, and attack them." ”

"Zha," ****** hit a thousand on the horse, this is the etiquette of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and now the Mongols still belong to the Manchu rule, and they have been familiar with the Manchu etiquette for twenty or thirty years.

"Erlang, follow me," he shouted as he ran back to his ranks, and then with the neighing of his horses, the five thousand Mongol cavalry of Kazan turned over and went to the rear, and carefully followed the road they had come back to where they had been stationing, where there was a valley to which he did not know where it led, and he decided to look for it along with his men and horses.

The cavalry has been out of the danger zone, immediately increased the speed, and the horse went away, but unfortunately, the valley mouth that is more than five miles wide is more than five miles wide, and many war horses galloped past, all of them quickly wailed, turned over to the ground, and drove other war horses, too late to stop their footsteps, a series of collisions advanced far away, the cavalry and the war horses fell to the ground, and the cavalry behind still moved forward, as a result, thousands of people were piled up at the mouth of the valley, only more than a thousand cavalry saw that the front was wrong, stopped their steps, and stopped at a distance of 100 meters in the rear. looked at the miserable situation of the comrades in front of him in amazement.

stood up, and then fell to the ground again, his war horse rushed fast, not hit by other war horses, but also suffered the most, the war horse fell to the ground, dying, and it seemed that it was not good.

Looking at the iron thistle nailed to the palm of his hand, the pain in his face jumped, the blood stained half of his arm red, he felt that his buttocks also hurt, and touched it with his other hand, and another irregular iron thistle was pulled off his buttocks.

"I'm going to kill these Han people, it's too despicable."

Furious, at this moment, several gunshots rang out, ****** body stiffened, and then turned his head to look at the hillside behind him, where the figure flashed, more than a dozen figures disappeared into the boulder behind the hillside in a blink of an eye, turned around, and ran away.

He gasped violently a few times, and without waiting for the soldiers around him to run over to support him, he fell to the ground, and several Mongolian cavalrymen suffered the same as him, who had just stood up and were killed before they could figure out the situation.

The cavalry behind dismounted, bowed in hand, and pursued the hillside, but unfortunately, the dozen or so men quickly ran out of tune, and pursued for two miles, and the enemy threw them off, apparently the enemy was more familiar with the terrain than they were.

's cavalry units were soon taken over by his lieutenant, who then counted the casualties and sent cavalry to report to Schulte.

After the casualties were counted, the adjutant's face became embarrassed, and 1,200 people died, either with their necks broken, trampled to death by their horses, poked to death by their own weapons, or crushed by their horses and suffocated.

Five hundred were seriously wounded, with broken legs and arms, covered in thistles, and 300 lightly wounded, scratched by thistles, injured in their feet and legs, and lost their combat effectiveness.

It directly caused 2,000 people to lose their combat effectiveness, and 3,500 war horses to lose the ability to ride, and now there is no need to go, this army has completely lost its combat effectiveness, they still have to clean up the battlefield, and they have to guard against enemy attacks, and they are suspicious, they dare not move forward anymore, so they can only stay here temporarily.

The lieutenant sent five hundred cavalry to the other side, farther away, to probe a mountain road, but it was also attacked by thirty or fifty crossbowmen and a dozen musketeers.

On the frontal battlefield, Schulte sent 5,000 cavalry to dismount and approach Tian Xian's garrison on foot, clearing obstacles while fighting Tian Xian's counterparts, hiding behind rocks and trees, and behind dug trenches, shooting arrows, shooting, and crossbow arrows at them.

There were 1,000 people of 5,000 cavalry who searched the nearby mountains, searched behind the hills, and were blocked by a small force, but they made good progress, and soon destroyed the traps and traps arranged by Tian Xian, and found the location of the tripping horse, seeing that it was getting dark, Schulte was in a hurry, and then sent 5,000 cavalry to dismount and search on both sides, and no longer could send people on the frontal battlefield, because to send people again was to find targets for the other party, and to invest 4,000 troops to attack on such a narrow battlefield, even if the enemy's archery skills were not exquisite, just throw it, can fall on one person's head, if it weren't for the opening of the passage as soon as possible, Schulte said that he would have to slowly consume with the enemy, and he was unwilling to use soldiers.

After two hours of fighting, Tian Xian saw that it was dark, and quickly ordered the cavalry to go to the nearby blocking detachment to find it back, and then retreat to the second line of defense.

The Mongols quickly broke through their defenses, but had to stop and open the way, carefully looking for traps, traps, and they could not be fooled again.

When the news of his death came, many Mongols were demoralized and impetuous, and many Mongol generals advised Schulte to retreat and not pursue the Han army.

But Schulte knew that he couldn't do it if he didn't pursue, he got a message from Duolong, and he had to rescue Duolong, otherwise he would be held accountable, Duolong, the general of the Manchu clan, because he died and the army was destroyed, he was going to be impeached, and he had to go to prison if he went back, and the Mongols were the second-class people of the Qing Dynasty, but they couldn't fight the first-class Duolong, so he could only sacrifice his subordinates and compatriots of the same clan, as well as other Mongolian compatriots, to complete the task.

He knew that there were not many troops on the other side, the total strength was only 37,800 people, and he was fighting against the 60,000 people in Duolong in front, and there must not be many enemies blocking here, but only a few thousand soldiers and horses, if 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers and horses could not defeat a few thousand soldiers and horses, then he, the solid mountain Ezhen, the admiral, should die.
