In fact, this is a rout, but in the hearts of his children and grandchildren, this is a strategic retreat. The children and grandchildren shouted: "Withdraw! Evacuate! "Six thousand horsemen galloped towards the depths of the steppe.

Tian Shiyuan, who was behind, pursued with 10,000 cavalry. Ten thousand horses galloped, and the sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and soon they were far away.

Zhang Zhijie sat on the horse and groaned, although the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei charged twice, and the horsepower had been lost a lot, but their riding skills were superb and the war horses were excellent, Tian Shiyuan was able to cut down some backward cavalry, but the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei was still able to escape.

Thinking of this, Zhang Zhijie couldn't help but smile bitterly, he was really tired of fighting a battle, he was afraid that Duoyan Sanwei would not feel the pain if he fought lightly, and he was afraid that Duoyan Sanwei would be directly disabled, and he would be annexed by Tatar when the time came.

However, Zhang Zhijie felt that this time it was just right, and he defeated a small half of the cavalry, which was enough to make them honest for many years. Of course, Zhang Zhijie wants more than just making them honest. The next step is to plan a little.

Zhou Yang witnessed this great battle under the city on the city wall, and in the end, the more than 10,000 cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei lost thousands of cavalry and fled in disarray, and the more than 10,000 cavalry of the Governor had already gone to pursue the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei.

Although he was still a little worried about the Governor's cavalry, but thinking that Duoyan Sanwei had been broken up twice, the morale had plummeted and suffered serious losses, and the Governor's cavalry should not suffer much loss, Zhou Yang felt a heartfelt joy in his heart, which was a rare victory in the past hundred years.

Zhou Yang shouted: "Follow Ben will go out of the city to welcome the governor into the city!" ”

At this time, there was already a jubilant atmosphere in Yongning City, the city gate was opened, and Zhou Yang took the generals in the city and hundreds of horsemen to gallop to the Beijing army. I told my name before I got to the big battle, and I was invited in later.

Zhou Yang looked all the way and found that there was a blade in front of this new type of firearm, and Zhou Yang suddenly realized, no wonder the Governor did not mobilize cavalry, it turned out that this new type of firearm can also be used as a spear, both in distance and in close combat, it is really a genius idea.

All the way to the Chinese army, Zhou Yang saw the young governor sitting upright on the horse in the middle, and immediately knelt down on one knee respectfully and said: "Yongning Cheng General Zhou Yang sees the Governor, congratulations to the Governor on his victory and defeat of Duoyan Sanwei!" ”

Zhou Yang had slandered in his heart more than once, but after seeing this victory with his own eyes, all the slander in his heart disappeared, and he could only sigh and admire.

Zhang Zhi nodded and said: "It turned out to be General Zhou, you led people to bring the injured soldiers back to the city for treatment, and there are scattered war horses on the battlefield, you send cavalry to gather them!" ”

Zhou Yang immediately received the order to go quickly, while arranging for the adjutant general to lead the cavalry to capture the war horses, and he personally led people to carry the wounded soldiers to the city for treatment.

Zhang Zhijie did not disband the large array and lead the troops into the city, but waited here for the pursuing cavalry to return. Although he expected that Tian Shiyuan would not suffer any loss if he led the cavalry to pursue, he still waited here just in case.

At this moment, the war is over, not only Zhang Zhijie's heart is relaxed, but even the soldiers who are still in the formation are also relieved. The atmosphere of slaughter in the array was empty, and an atmosphere of joy was born. The steppe cavalry, which was feared by the border soldiers like tigers, was still defeated by them, and looked at those people who the border soldiers still didn't look down on.

Although Tian Shiyuan led more than 10,000 cavalry to pursue the cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei, he did not dare to go too deep into the grassland, and after pursuing for twenty miles, he did not dare to pursue any further, and immediately led his troops back.

This pursuit made Tian Shiyuan feel hearty, and the soldiers of the border army were very aggrieved in the face of the cavalry on the grassland, and finally they were able to chase the grassland cavalry and fled in embarrassment. Tian Shiyuan felt that his blood was about to burn.

However, he still remembered the Governor's instructions not to go deep into the grasslands, so he had to retreat and return. The mighty cavalry returned the same way, and after returning to the main formation, Tian Shiyuan immediately came to the Chinese army.

Although there were all kinds of doubts and opinions about the Governor, but now all of them are gone, Tian Shiyuan dismounted from a distance and quickly stepped forward and knelt down on one knee respectfully and said: "Your Excellency the Governor, the last general led the cavalry to pursue for more than 20 miles and beheaded 300 people. The cavalry of the Duoyan Sanwei had fled to the depths of the steppe. ”

To be honest, Tian Shiyuan was a little ashamed at this time, if he could behead three hundred levels in the usual times, it would already be a great victory, enough to write a book. But at this time, seeing that there were thousands of corpses on the battlefield, Tian Shiyuan felt a little ashamed in comparison.

However, Zhang Zhijie didn't care about this, nodded and said: "Okay, General Tian has worked hard, the army entered the city to rest, and General Zhou Yang led people to clean up the battlefield." ”

The cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei fled back to the grassland, the army entered the city with joy, and Zhou Yang led people to clean up the battlefield.

But the most important thing is the head, every time the head is cut, Zhou Yang's mood is better. There are also dead war horses, and the army is going to have a meal tonight. As for those living war horses, it made him feel better, and what Daming lacked the most was war horses.

Yongning City suddenly became crowded, and although it was crowded, it was filled with an atmosphere of joy of victory. The soldiers were very tired after the battle, and now they entered the city and immediately began to cook food to treat everyone. Zhang Zhijie personally led the generals to patrol the camp to pacify, and after this battle, the morale of the army was greatly boosted.

After the battle, the battlefield was counted, and the three guards of Duoyan threw down 3,800 corpses on the battlefield, plus the cavalry pursued and killed 300 people, and a total of 4,100 beheadings were killed in this battle. The 10,000 elite cavalry of Duoyan Sanwei invaded the south and lost a lot, leaving only about 6,000 cavalry to flee back to the grassland.

After the patrol camp, all the generals gathered in the hall, everyone's face was beaming, this battle was definitely a great victory, all the generals who participated in this battle have merit, now the national strength is at its peak, and the emperor will not be stingy when rewarding.

After reporting the results of the battle, Zhang Zhijie's face was a little stunned, and he sighed: "Only a few hundred cavalry attacked in front of the battle, and even caused a thousand casualties among musketeers!" ”

The soldiers of the Beijing camp still don't feel it, but Tian Shiyuan and Zhou Yang have some urge to vomit blood, Lord Governor, you are inevitably too satisfied! Killed 4,000 steppe cavalry, but only injured 1,000 people, what a brilliant result, the Governor was still dissatisfied!

Not to mention killing 4,000 steppe cavalry and injuring 1,000 people, even if it is reversed, it is a great victory. Tian Shiyuan said excitedly: "The Governor led his troops to kill four thousand grassland cavalry but only injured a thousand, this result is simply unheard of, and it will definitely go down in history!" ”
