In the face of the dragoons who rushed up, it was impossible for Dai Shan to turn a blind eye and leave his back to Zhao Shujiao. Dai Shan could only turn the horse's head and meet him from the front.

At this time, the dragoons in the front row with horse pistols in their hands opened fire, and then the golden cavalry also began to return fire with bows and arrows, although the cotton armor of both sides can effectively prevent the opponent's long-range attacks, but relatively speaking, the Royal Forest Army is better than the other party in terms of the quality of cotton armor and the power of flintlock pistols, after a round of long-range attacks on both sides, the Ming army has a slight upper hand.

After only one round of firing between the two sides, the two torrents of cavalry collided fiercely. The cavalry of both sides was caught in a scuffle, and the standard equipment of the Royal Foresters' dragoons was a rifle and a sabre, and the carbine had the advantage of being able to exert its own power even when it was close to hand.

In the new army, the biggest difference between the Mongols and the Han is that the Han people can only get a share of the land or other rewards after retiring or dying in battle, while the Mongols can get a piece of grassland immediately after joining the army, which makes the two sides slightly different in military discipline, in the war, if the Mongols escape from the war, not only the escaped person will be executed, but also the land will be recovered, and all the family members will be exiled. This made it necessary for the Mongols to fight the battlefield, otherwise they would not only be punished but also their families.

The dragoons of the Royal Forest Army were inextricably separated from Daishan's 5,000 cavalry for a while, and the dragoons even had a slight upper hand by virtue of the advantage of muskets. At this time, Zhao Shujiao was hit by several arrows, looking like a hedgehog from a distance, just with excellent armor, these arrows did not cause any substantial damage to Zhao Shujiao, but Zhao Shujiao's shape gave people a feeling of fighting to the end, which greatly boosted the morale of the Ming army.

Dai Shan did not intercept Lu Xiangsheng's 3,000-winged cavalry, and the 3,000-winged cavalry rushed directly towards Wang Erxin's army like an off-string arrow. Wang Erxin's infantry was not like the Ming army, which could form an infantry phalanx to resist the onslaught of cavalry. Haoge knew that Lu Xiangsheng only needed one round trip, and Wang Erxin's army would collapse. Hauge led five thousand cavalry without hesitation.

The Daming hussars were not as fancy as the European hussars, but they adopted the traditional combat methods of the hussars, so they were named hussars by Zhu Youxiao. The purpose of the Poles to create the hussars was to deal with the cavalry of the East and the West, and after hundreds of years of development, it has been very mature, and the hussars did lead in the 17th century, which is also the reason why Zhu Youxiao formed the hussars.

"Stay in formation and rush over." Lu Xiangsheng shouted brandishing a big knife.

"Raise your gun." At the sound of the order, the hussars who rushed in the two columns in front immediately set up their spears.

In order to maintain the formation, the hussars charged at a speed that was not as fast as the cavalry of Houjin. It looked like the huge wave of the Houjin cavalry had smashed a stubborn rock. Relying on the superiority of the spears, the hussars stabbed to death many of the enemy soldiers in the front row of Houjin Chong as soon as the two sides made contact, but some of the hussars were directly knocked off their horses by this huge impact. In cavalry charges, once you fall off your horse, the chances of survival are almost non-existent.

After the hussar charged, they began to engage the enemy with swords and pistols. As soon as the first wave of the charge ended, Lu Xiangsheng waved his hand, and the second wave of the charge began, followed by the third wave......

Lu Xiangsheng divided the 3,000 winged cavalry into six waves, so that the offensive was round after round, and the 5,000 cavalry led by Haoge began to show a tendency to rout under the continuous impact of Lu Xiangsheng's winged cavalry.

Lu Xiangsheng was born with great strength, a big knife wielded Huo Huo Feng in the wind, and the Houjin cavalry had almost no enemy, and at this time he was leading a team to take Hauge directly. And Hauge didn't expect that the winged cavalry of the Ming army would be so fierce, his five thousand cavalry could not resist the three thousand cavalry of the Ming Dynasty, he was now retreating, but when he saw Lu Xiangsheng coming straight to him, Hauge chose to rush to Lu Xiangsheng without hesitation.

"Keng", Lu Xiangsheng's big knife slashed hard at the long knife held by Haoge, the huge force shook Haoge's tiger mouth holding the knife, Lu Xiangsheng did not wait for Haoge to adjust, lifted the big knife followed by another knife, Haoge was forced to raise the long knife again to block Lu Xiangsheng's big knife, just a few times later, half of Haoge's arm was shocked by Lu Xiangsheng's huge strength.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Haoge's personal guards hurriedly surrounded him to save Haoge, and Haoge also knew that he was not Lu Xiangsheng's opponent at this time, whether it was a heads-up or a group fight, Haoge was not Lu Xiangsheng's opponent, and his retreat was even stronger. By this time, Hauge's army was on the verge of collapse.

"Withdraw!" Hauge shouted.

At the sound of the order, Hauge's army retreated as quickly as a tide, and Hauge fled directly north under the cover of everyone.

"The order is not to pursue, to attack the enemy's infantry." When Lu Xiangsheng saw Hauge's army retreating, he turned his horse around and began to attack Wang Erxin's infantry.

Wang Erxin's infantry originally lacked the means to defend against cavalry, and Hauge's escape made this group of infantry completely lose their fighting spirit. As soon as Lu Xiangsheng turned his horse's head, Wang Erxin's infantry was scattered. The cavalry pursued and killed the infantry as easily as chopping melons and vegetables, and Wang Erxin's 10,000 infantry were almost wiped out, but Wang Erxin himself ran away.

When Honzen saw Hauge's defeat, he immediately gave the order to retreat. Dai Shan's army has been in command for many years, even if it is a retreat, it is very orderly, and the 7,000 cavalry of Zhao Led Sect was blocked by the 500 cavalry left by Dai Shan, so that Dai Shan's army calmly withdrew from the battlefield.

After receiving the news that Lu Xiangsheng's vanguard troops were blocked by Houjin, Xiong Tingbi immediately ordered You Shilu to lead 5,000 Guanning Iron Cavalry to the rescue, but when the Guanning Iron Cavalry arrived at the battlefield, the battle was already over.

……

At midnight that night, the people who reported the victory sent the good news to Shanhaiguan. At this time, Zhu Youxiao had not yet fallen asleep.

Hearing the news that Lu Xiangsheng had defeated Houjin's army, Shanhaiguan immediately resounded with cheers. Hearing the voice, Zhu Youxiao knew that news was coming from the front line, so he put on his clothes and prepared to go out.

"Your Majesty, are you going out?" Seeing this, Concubine Fan Hui asked.

"Shanhaiguan is suddenly noisy, something must have happened, I have to go and see it to be relieved." Zhu Youxiao said.

"Your Majesty, it's snowing, wear more clothes." Concubine Fan Hui hurriedly took a fur coat and wrapped it in Zhu Youxiao.

As soon as Zhu Youxiao walked to the door, he met Wang Liqian hurriedly walked in and said, "Your Majesty, great joy, great victory in the Liaohe River." ”

"Where's the Baojieshe?" Zhu Youxiao said.

"I'm outside the door right now." Wang Liqian replied happily.

"Pass him in at once." Zhu Youxiao said excitedly.
