"100,000 Mongolian Iron Cavalry" is finally coming to attack Bauhinia Pass and attack the capital!

Although not so many Mongols actually came, every Ming soldier felt this way, including the generals.

The tense atmosphere swept through the entire Bauhinia Pass, and no one from the general to the soldiers was not nervous.

The Mongols' offensive was very sharp, as soon as they came, they divided one army and began to attack the Bauhinia Pass, and the other army set up camp on the spot, Li Chengliang stood at the head of the city, looking at the Mongols' offensive mode, and sighed-

"Qingxiao (Chai Guozhu's expression), it seems that this battle is not easy to fight."

Chai Guozhu looked at the dense trebuchets, bed crossbows and all kinds of artillery under him, and his scalp was also numb.

"The Beiyu should have snatched these objects from the hands of the Datong defenders, now, it is no wonder that the Pingxing Pass was lost, Dong Zongbing was killed in battle, the siege firepower of the Beiyu will not be inferior to the siege firepower of our army, Li Shuai, you say, how to fight this battle?"

Chai Guozhu didn't dare to hold up in front of Li Chengliang at all, honestly bowed his head and admitted that he was small, listening to Li Chengliang's orders, he also believed that Li Chengliang, who was thriving in Liaodong, had enough experience to compete with the Mongols, after all, Li Chengliang also beat the Mongols in Liaodong back then, and won many big victories.

However, now Li Chengliang has no Liaodong Iron Cavalry by his side, to be honest, if Liaodong Iron Cavalry is by his side, Li Chengliang will definitely let the Iron Cavalry go out and harden these Mongols head-on.

The Liaodong Jian'er under his command was not afraid of any Mongolian Jurchen cavalry at all, and they came to fight one by one, and two to fight a pair, which was the most fierce army in the whole Ming Dynasty, and there was no one.

But now, these more than 40,000 soft eggs, the Mongols have not yet begun to attack the city, their legs and stomachs are trembling, and many soldiers are so frightened that their faces turn pale, Li Chengliang looked at this posture, and shook his head helplessly.

"First block the city gate solidly, no matter how you can't let the northern captives come in, just on the city wall, we still have something to do, as long as my son's Liaodong iron cavalry arrives, the situation can be changed."

Chai Guozhu listened to it and felt that it made sense, in the current situation, don't think about being able to fight against these people at all, first hold the city, and don't let the northern captives break through the Bauhinia Pass and rush to the capital.

At present, they are the last line of defense from Bauhinia Pass to the capital, and if they lose here, the face of the Ming Empire will be lost.

The victories of the previous three major expeditions had pushed the prestige of the dynasty to the peak, but now, how could it have fallen to this point in only three years?

Chai Guozhu was also a little confused, at this moment, he suddenly recalled the first general of Wanli, Xiao Ruxun, who suddenly rose like a comet, and then suddenly disappeared from the Central Plains.

He couldn't help but imagine, if Xiao Ruxun didn't go to Myanmar but stayed in the capital, could Beiyu still be so rampant?

It is said that in Pingyu City, Xiao Ruxun used the same force to wipe out almost all the three thousand Mongolian iron cavalry, and he was able to do all this at that time, and now, they have more than ten times the strength of Xiao Ruxun, but why can they only defend passively?

Chai Guozhu could not answer this question, he could only give an order, so that the army was ready, and the gunners were ready, ready to attack the Mongols at any time.

The Mongols soon launched an offensive, the mournful and desolate trumpet sounded, the Mongols shouted the ancient and ancient battle trumpet, dismounted and fought on foot, relying on the standard siege weapons of the Ming army to constantly approach the city of the Ming army.

As soon as Chai Guozhu waved his hand, the war drums of the Ming army on the city wall rumbled.

"Knock Knock Knock"

The Ming army also beat the drums of war that had not changed for thousands of years to stimulate the soldiers' will to fight, and the commander and deputy marshal came to the front line to stimulate morale, which somewhat allowed these soldiers, who rarely fought with the Mongols, or even never fought with the Mongols, to hold their weapons.

The birdmen and crossbowmen were ready, the gunners were ready, and at the same time that the first round of trebuchets of the Mongols began, Chai Guozhu also sharply drew his sword and pointed forward-

"Shoot !!!"

The battle to defend Bauhinia Pass began.

The artillery of the Ming army roared, and the Mongol trebuchets fired huge stones, which flew and staggered together with iron bullets, smashing each other on each other's positions.

The artillery shells of the Ming army bombarded the formation of the Mongols, stirred up a burst of dust, brought a wave of air, and overturned many Mongols, and some of the Mongol stones also smashed on the wall of the Ming army, and blood and flesh were splashed on the city wall in an instant.

At the beginning of the war, there was cruel blood, and many Beijing soldiers who had never experienced such a cruel war directly held their heads and roared loudly, frightened by the cruel killing, and even began to flee immediately.

Kill the deserters on the battlefield, Lao Li doesn't have any psychological burden on this, I won't stop you from running away before, but if you want to run after you come, then there is no way!

Lao Li's 120-member family guards were all fierce and abnormal, all of them were veterans who had followed him in the southern and northern wars for more than 20 years, and they were all in the prime of life when they were about forty years old, armed with machetes, and saw a deserter cut one by one, and the head was splashed with blood.

These fierce samurai are like falcons to quails against those deserters from the Kyoto camp.

"There are those who dare to fight and flee privately, slash!"

Li Chengliang issued an order not to be killed.

Looking at the staircase where the corpses were piled up, the deserters realized that they could not cross these fierce samurai and rush to the city to find a way to live, whether the front was dead or the back was still dead, they had no way out.

Under the city, huge stones fell from the sky and the terrifying scene of smashing people to death stimulated some Beijing soldiers to collapse from time to time, desperately trying to escape, but they didn't run a few steps, and several columns of soldiers holding bird guns and three-eyed guns suddenly appeared in front of them, and there was a volley of fire at them.

Bang bang –

At such a close distance, directly ignoring the error, as long as the shot was successfully fired, then the lead bullet was almost to the flesh, a large number of Beijing camp deserters were killed, blood splashed everywhere, blood flowed all over the ground, groups of people fell to the ground and died, and the rest of the people were afraid and did not dare to step forward.

An officer in armor stood up with a war knife in his hand, walked up to a Beijing camp deserter who had been hit in the thigh and was still crying out in pain, and shouted: "Li Shuai has an order!" There are those who dare to flee without permission! Chop! ”

Then he held the knife in both hands, raised it high, and stabbed it down again, stabbing the deserter to the ground.

"Who dares to escape?!"

He raised his sword and pointed at the Beijing soldiers with a look of fear on their faces.

"Ahh!!h

The soldiers of the Beijing camp roared in pain, retreating again and again, not daring to continue a single step.
