"Boom ......"

The sound of horses' hooves came from the direction of the Golden Soldiers' camp.

While the Jin soldiers were advancing slowly, thousands of cavalry rushed over the horizontal team and rushed towards the Ning army like lightning.

For the Jin people, their pride is the bow and horse archery, it is with their skillful horse kung fu that they defeated the Hua Dynasty army, occupying half of the Hua Dynasty.

Because of this, they often confidently sent cavalry in field battles, hoping to use cavalry to destroy the Chinese army as in every previous war.

The distance of 400 meters was only a short time for the cavalry, and soon the cavalry commander Kuimut saw clearly this Chinese army that dared to take the initiative to attack them.

A contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Kumut raised his saber, in the case of the other party's cavalry, the infantry was tantamount to death here, especially since this army seemed to be only eight thousand people.

It's just that his smile quickly froze, and when they were only two hundred meters away from the Chinese Dynasty soldiers, a dense cannon sound came, and then dense black spots appeared in his eyes.

Before there was time for any reaction, these black spots were sprinkled like raindrops on the cavalry led by him, and in an instant, hundreds of cavalry who rushed in front fell screaming.

The cavalry behind couldn't dodge, and many soldiers and horses tripped and fell to the ground one after another, and the scene was chaotic.

Seeing this, Quimat was furious, he shouted "kill" and continued to rush over with the rest of the cavalry.

He knew very well that it would take time to reload the artillery, and that the distance of 200 meters was not enough for the artillery to fire a second round, and that he could completely kill the opponent's artillery by taking advantage of this interval.

Just as the smoke of the artillery had cleared, he saw a row of Chinese soldiers standing up, and these soldiers raised their muskets, and a burst of fire and smoke rose.

"Whoosh ......"

The sound of lead bullets passing through the noisy battlefield was also very clear, and Quimut finally felt a little uncomfortable, but it was too late.

In the dense fire, hundreds of more cavalrymen fell, and his arm was also hit by a stray bullet, and blood continued to flow down.

The six thousand cavalry suffered nearly a thousand casualties in the blink of an eye, and Kuimut felt a chill in his heart.

In no war with the Chinese dynasty did their cavalry suffer such heavy losses in such a short period of time.

He wanted to retreat, but once the cavalry charged, he had to move forward bravely, otherwise the cavalry in front of him would suddenly turn around and retreat, which would definitely cause confusion and give the enemy a second chance to attack.

Enduring the sharp pain in his arm, there was still a trace of luck in Kuimut's heart, now that they were only a hundred meters away from the enemy, they would be able to destroy this group of enemies in no time.

Before he could finish his thoughts, he saw another burst of fire and white smoke rise from his front, followed by a third round......

In the Ning army's position, Lu Zhen calmly watched the opposing cavalry, and the front facing the cavalry was composed of more than 2,000 soldiers, who were divided into three rows and used three shots to maintain continuous firepower.

Just now, under the attack of hundreds of artillery guns using shotguns, the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom suffered serious losses, and now the Mini rifle once again exerted its power.

Under the continuous firing of round after round, the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom fell like cutting leeks, and when the opposing cavalry fell in front of him, he ordered the soldiers in front of him to squat and meet the cavalry with muskets loaded with spears.

The soldiers of the Ning army had long been familiar with the tactics of dealing with the cavalry, and after receiving the order, the soldiers clenched their muskets and waited for the frontal impact of the Jin cavalry.

Soon, the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom arrived in front of them, and in the face of the dense bayonets shining with metallic luster, the war horses instinctively dodged and raised their front hooves one after another.

"Kill!" The soldiers of the Ning army shouted in unison, and the bayonets stabbed at the soldiers of the Jin Kingdom on their horses, and the two sides immediately fell into hand-to-hand combat.

Kuimut didn't think at all that the muskets of the Ning soldiers were still loaded with bayonets, but it was too late to see them.

The horse instinctively keeps it from rushing at the bayonet's blade and turns its body sideways, which gives the enemy an opportunity.

Seeing that the cavalry in front was caught in hand-to-hand combat with the Chinese soldiers, Kuymut immediately organized the cavalry to go around in an attempt to attack the Chinese phalanx from the flank.

It's just that as soon as his cavalry reached the flank, it was greeted by another burst of fire, and the losses continued to increase.

"What a hedgehog." Quimmut was furious in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

Wherever he went, he was greeted by a dense hail of bullets, and after several shocks, half of his cavalry was lost.

By this time, he finally realized that he couldn't win.

Slamming his horsewhip hard, Kuimut looked at this strange group of Chinese soldiers with resentment, and led the remaining cavalry to retreat.

It's just that the soldiers of the Chinese Dynasty obviously won't let him evacuate so easily, the intensive artillery bombardment continued to sound behind them, and the screams of the cavalry kept coming from his ears, and when he returned to the camp, there were only more than 2,000 people left around him.

Borzi witnessed the whole process, and his heart was bleeding from every cavalryman who fell, and these cavalrymen were not Han soldiers, but real Jin people.

"I'm going to break this Chinese Dynasty army into pieces." Borzi was furious, "Attack, all attack, I don't believe that the 150,000 army can't help this mere 8,000 people." ”

In Borzi's rage, a large number of Jin troops headed for the hills, and the battlefield was densely packed with soldiers.

Zhongshan Peak,

Lin Mu witnessed all this and saw that the Jin soldiers rushed towards the Ning army desperately, and he gave Qiyu's men the order to retreat.

This half-crossing attack, his purpose was not to fight a decisive battle with the Jin soldiers, but just to disrupt the Jin soldiers' offensive, and at the same time to hit the morale of the Jin people, and gain time for the next decisive battle, after all, he didn't want to defeat his Ning army in this battle.

Now that they have withdrawn to Wubao, they can have the advantage of defending the city, and at the same time they can continue to train their troops to expand the size of the Ning army.

Previously, he asked Lu Zhen to recruit soldiers, and now that he has the status of a regimental training envoy, he has increased the number of soldiers recruited.

Now there are 8,000 recruits in Wubao being trained, and if it is formed, his Ning army will have 16,000 men.

Moreover, Jiangning City is what the Jin people want, let Jiangning City consume the Jin soldiers' troops, and when the time comes, he can take the opportunity to capture Yanziji and cut off the retreat of the Jin soldiers, so as to make dumplings.

"Retreat!"

Lü Zhen received the order to leave a battalion of stragglers to cover, and the other soldiers immediately retreated to Fort Wu according to the established plan.

The cavalry of the Jin soldiers suffered heavy losses, and in the face of the retreating Ning army, they could not immediately organize a pursuit, so they could only watch the Ning soldiers run away like rabbits.

Borzi and the generals of the golden soldiers were all a little stunned, this army came and went quickly, which made them a little confused about the other party's intentions.

"Lord Bannerman, what should I do now?" Someone asked.

Looking at Jiangning City in front of him, Borji said: "You can run the monk, you can't run the temple, and when the army all lands, attack Jiangning City immediately." ”

"Yes, Lord Bannerman." A group of generals responded.
