Under the city of Kadang, the gunners of the five hundred Heavenly Mandate Army were staring at each other, their fingers had already taken the trigger, just waiting for Zhou Bin's military order, at the head of the city, Li Zicheng would look at the soldiers of the Heavenly Mandate Army under the city for a while, and then look at the Mongolian cavalry in the distance, and inadvertently, he also used the corner of his eye to scan the dense forest in front of him.

Although he was fully prepared, it was the first time after all, and the gunners of the Mandate of Heaven faced the cavalry of the nomadic tribe in the field, and he was a little uneasy.

This duel is actually a comparison with the strength of the Mongolian cavalry, mainly psychological warfare, once the Mandate of Heaven army wins, it can break the psychological advantage of the Mongolian cavalry, change the Han people's tradition of relying on numerical superiority to fight.

If the Han Chinese can defeat the Mongol cavalry in the same number, then the huge population advantage of the Han people will completely shatter the contempt of the Mongols for the Han Chinese!

When Li Zicheng was calculating Namu Zhong, he thought that if he relied on the advantage of the city wall, even if he defeated the Mongolian cavalry, they would not be convinced, and they would not be able to control it in the future.

As long as you can conquer the Mongols, even if it costs you!

The 5,000th household was also out of the way, knowing that the battlefield was very dangerous, Zhou Bin still came to the scene to command the battle, and he wanted to use the rifle in his hand to create a new myth.

On the banks of the Chauna River, five hundred Mongolian cavalry had completed their assembly, and the war horses began to accelerate, forming a cone, wanting to cut directly into the formation of the Mandate of Heaven.

"Da Da Da ......"

The horse's hooves hit the ground heavily, and the speed of the war horse brought a whirlwind, although there were only five hundred cavalry, but the uniform movements, coupled with the sound and momentum, were still quite terrifying.

These 500 cavalry, carrying the expectations of the Great Khan and Namu Zhong Dafujin, but also carrying the life and death of the entire tribe, as long as they kill the little Mandate of Heaven army on the opposite side, the Mongols who are about to break out of cooking will usher in life, and from then on they will thrive and accumulate strength in the big grass beach, and one day, they will return to the steppe that haunts their dreams.

This only chance is on them, they are the five hundred elites carefully selected by the Great Khan!

The Mandate of Heaven Army does not have those defensive equipment of the Ming Army, as long as they push over and cut into the formation of the Mandate of Heaven Army, the infantry is a group of lambs, and their five hundred cavalry will also be recorded in the history of the Mongols as heroes!

They were only a thousand paces away from victory.

But just as Namu Zhong feared, this distance was too short, and the speed of the cavalry could not be added up at all, and when they sprinted, they only took up and fell a few times, which was already close to the Heavenly Mandate Army, but the speed of the war horse was less than half of the maximum time.

Although Zhou Bin was standing at the back of the team, his eyes had been staring at the effective range of four hundred steps in front of him, and most of the governors said that this time it was a competition, and there was no need to have any scruples, and from the effective range of four hundred steps, the gunners would start shooting.

According to the data measured during the exercise, the cavalry could shoot about two rounds from the effective range of 400 paces to the optimal range of 200 paces, and the gunners could shoot about 1,000 bullets with 500 gunners, and with a 30% hit rate, they could suffer 300 casualties.

It's not that in such a long time, the cavalry can only advance two hundred paces, but the cavalry at the front was shot and fell from his horse, and the cavalry behind made up for it, and as a result, he fell again...... In fact, these two hundred steps are the distance of the cavalry as a whole!

From the best range of 200 paces to the death line of 100 paces, the Mandate of Heaven can complete another round of shooting, 500 bullets, at least more than 100 cavalry casualties, and the smaller the number of cavalry, the greater the possibility of being shot.

The remaining dozens of cavalry must be blocked a hundred paces away, once they are broken into the battle formation, it is the world of the Mongol cavalry, although the gunners are equipped with waist knives, basically just for show, let them fight with the cavalry, it is simply to hit the stone with eggs.

The key to the battle is whether they can kill and injure more Mongolian cavalry at a distance of 100 paces, and whether they can block the remnants of the Mongolian cavalry from a distance of 100 paces.

If a crushing victory is achieved, it will also be unforgivable for the Mandate of Heaven army, and only a clean victory can deter the Mongols.

However, Zhou Bin didn't worry much, the Metropolitan Governor said that once there was a danger, he would ask the divine soldiers to help, although he didn't know who this divine soldier was and where he was hiding, but since the Metropolitan Governor said it, the divine soldiers must be on the left to watch.

It's better to rely on your own strength and shoot five hundred Mongols cleanly!

The soldiers of the 500th household participated in the battle of the Triangle City against the Bayar Department, the battle of Kadang City against the Maili cadres, and the eastward expedition to Longyou, and the battle of Guguan against Cao Wenzhao and Hong Chengchou, they were also not absent, and they were the most experienced in the battle among the seven thousand households of the Heavenly Mandate Army, and the only uncertainty was the actual combat cavalry in the field.

Fortunately, the Governor chose a favorable terrain, because the distance was too short, the speed of the Mongol cavalry would not be too fast, and the shock to the soldiers' hearts would not be too great.

"General, the Mongols are about to enter four hundred steps!"

Zhou Bin concentrated his eyes, the front of the Mongolian cavalry, the effective range of four hundred paces, was less than twenty paces, he immediately lengthened his voice and reminded the soldiers: "Prepare ...... Shooting ......"

"Bang...... Bang...... Bang......"

The front row, approaching one hundred and seventy gunners, pulled the trigger almost at the same moment, and the bullets made a sharp whistling sound towards the Mongol cavalry.

The Mongol soldiers never dreamed that the Mandate of Heaven would shoot at them at such a distance, and just as they were about to laugh at the Mandate Army, which was as timid as a rat and could only shoot bravely, the bullets were already coming at them.

"Smack...... Boom...... Yes...... Hiss ......"

The soldiers fell to the ground, the horses fell, and the wounded soldiers and horses all let out a cry of despair.

When the soldiers in front were injured and fell to the ground, the cavalry behind them were still advancing, and they couldn't dodge for a while, and they were "trampled like mud by horses", and their flesh and blood were mixed with mud, forming a "dough" on the horses' hooves......

The front of the cavalry was in confusion for a while, and it almost stopped, but the soldiers behind did not know what had happened in front of them, and they were speeding forward, and the men and horses collided, and many soldiers fell from their horses.

When the Mongol cavalry attacked, they did not care about their feet, and as far as they could see, there was only the enemy in front of them, but the Mandate of Heaven began to shoot from 400 paces away, which surprised them, and only then did there be a moment of confusion.

In this brief confusion, the second platoon of gunners of the Mandate of Heaven Army shot, and in this wave of shooting, the cavalry almost stopped, and the hit rate was greatly improved, and nearly 100 people fell from their horses.

The cavalry personally selected by Lin Dan Khan was indeed well-trained, and after surviving the initial surprise and panic, they quickly adjusted their ranks and re-formed a cone-shaped shock formation.

No matter how many people there are, no matter what the situation of the battle is, they have only one mission: to attack!

Only by attacking can you penetrate the formation of the Mandate of Heaven and kill these weak infantry of the Mandate of Heaven!

The enemy was ahead, and they were only four hundred paces away from victory.

After the speed of the Mongolian cavalry was cleared, it began to increase again, but this speed, in the eyes of the Heavenly Mandate Army, was already about the same as the infantry, and the original fear and nervousness were completely dissolved at once.

Zhou Bin did not have a rifle in his hand, he just silently made a mental record: the Mongol cavalry advanced from 400 to 200 paces, and the gunners fired two rounds and two waves, more than 1,350 bullets.

But advancing from 200 to 100 paces, the Mandate of Heaven fired only one round—and there were no more Mongol soldiers on the horses.

The Mongol soldiers were not dead, and there were countless wounded on the ground, all of whom had fallen from their horses in the final stages.

This is the end of the battle?

Zhou Bin suppressed the excitement in his heart, and there was no expression on his face, as if a senior monk was doing Dharma deeds.

The battle seemed to be over, but his heart seemed to be empty, and there was not much excitement and joy, or there was no time to savor the emotions at this time, just like a virgin who had never touched a woman's side, he had been looking forward to it since the time of the cave room was determined, and when he entered the cave room, he had not yet fully tasted it, and everything was over.

Although it was not the first time for Zhou Bin to fight, it was the first time for him to face off in the field with the nomadic cavalry, perhaps his expectations were too high, and the battle ended so quickly......

Suddenly, a wounded Mongolian soldier staggered to his feet, glanced forward, turned around with infinite hatred, and ran towards Lin Dan Khan's place.

Only then did Zhou Bin wake up: the battle is not over yet!

The Mongol cavalry did not surrender and admit defeat, nor did they die.

According to the prior agreement between the two sides, if all the soldiers on one side are killed in battle, or they voluntarily surrender and admit defeat, the battle will end, and the side that "all die in battle" or "surrender and admit defeat" is the losing side of this duel.

Since the wounded Mongol soldiers did not surrender and admit defeat, the battle had to continue.

Zhou Bin shouted to the soldiers who were waiting for the gun and were full of excitement: "The battle is not over yet, the Mongolian wounded soldiers are still there, now is not the time to celebrate, hurry, don't let the Mongolian soldiers escape...... As long as one soldier runs, the decisive battle cannot be considered a victory......"

"Ah......" The gunners suddenly realized, and they automatically began to shoot, dozens of bullets, first knocking down the unlucky guy who had escaped, and then each looking for a new target.

Maybe it's too much excitement; Maybe it's because after relaxing, it's hard to get nervous physically and mentally; Maybe it was because after the continuous shooting, the muscles on the body showed different degrees of stiffness, in short, the accuracy of the shooting dropped greatly, so angry that Zhou Bin scolded from time to time.

Fortunately, there were only so many Mongol cavalry participating in the duel, if there were another 500 cavalry...... He was secretly surprised in his heart, the Governor was right, even with a rifle, the quality of the soldier still came first.

It seems that after I go back, I have to train strictly!

Zhou Bin was angry and had nowhere to vent, when he suddenly saw a soldier shoot a war horse, he couldn't help but be furious, he "snapped" a palm over, "Bastard, shoot people, who let you shoot a horse?" These horses are ours now......"

The soldier knew that something was wrong, and did not dare to speak, so he hurriedly turned the muzzle of his gun and pulled the trigger fiercely on a wounded Mongolian soldier......

On the bank of the Chana River, Lin Dan Khan and Namu Zhong have also been staring at the battlefield of the duel, when the Mongolian cavalry began to fall to the ground, Lin Dan Khan was so nervous that he held his breath, and when he began to breathe heavily, there were no Mongolian warriors on horseback!

This is the end of the battle?

Lin Dan Khan's mind was in chaos, he didn't even have time to give any orders, all the warriors were killed and wounded and fell from their horses, in his eyes, there was no difference between the wounded soldiers and the dead soldiers, it was just a matter of time before they died!

Namu Zhong's little heart almost rose to the cavity eye, and when the last of the Mongol cavalry fell, her heart slammed and slammed back into her chest......

According to the rules agreed by both parties, the Mongols actually lost!
