"Since you have made up your mind to change your official hat, then do it well, this time you will most likely be able to directly become a hereditary hundred households, and no matter how lucky you are, you may even have the hats of a thousand households." Zhao Wankui saw that He Zongwei had made up his mind, so he opened his mouth to encourage him. As for whether he can successfully defeat the Mongols, Zhao Wankui has full confidence in his own combat power.

"You can take a good look at it, our Jinding Mountain's troops are much stronger than ordinary officers and soldiers, and there is no reason why you can't cut a few heads." He Zongwei was originally from the border army, and his evaluation of the combat strength of the Jindingshan troops was particularly weighty.

Just when the two of them were chatting with each other, Fan Shunjiang appeared in the field of vision with someone in the distance. Seeing that there were no traces of battle on their bodies, it seemed that the Mongols did not find them, Fan Shunjiang's reconnaissance operation was very successful, and Zhao Wankui hurriedly sent someone to pick them up.

Fan Shunjiang took the gourd handed over by Zhao Wankui, drank two sips of water and said, "Da Zibing divided into two roads and went all the way to the big boss. There are about forty riders of Dazi who came to our side, and the old car has now taken his people to report to the big boss. ”

After Zhao Wankui heard Fan Shunjiang's report, he said with a smile: "Dazi actually dares to divide the troops, let's slaughter them this time." Lao Fan, you took people to hide in the woods, Lao Zhou has now taken people to hide there. When Tatsuko runs into our pockets, I'll take someone behind Tatsuko first, and you will rush out as soon as you hear the movement. ”

Fan Shunjiang nodded in understanding, and then rushed to the forest behind with his subordinates. And Ho Zongwei stopped rambling at this time, he ran to the place of the spearman and the knife player and hid and waited for the Mongols to take the bait.

Zhao Wankui hid in the grass and supervised his subordinates, strictly ordering them not to make any moves. After some time, a Mongol force came into view.

This group of Mongols are all members of the Xindu city outside the border wall, and Xin is the transliteration of Mongolian colloquial language. It has two meanings, one refers to ravioli. The other is the meaning of the adjective convex and bulging.

Judging from the current battlefield performance, the news of this group of Mongols in Xindu City is a little lagging behind, and they do not know that there are hundreds of elite soldiers in Duhe Fort at this time. This group of Mongol rangers didn't even send a sentry to investigate, and they actually went all the way south with a big grin.

Zhao Wankui pointed his crosshair at a Mongol with a bird's gun, and this Mongol was very well armoured, and it was likely that he was the leader of this group of Mongolian cavalry.

Watching the other party walk along the road dozens of steps away with the people and horses, Zhao Wankui estimated the speed of the other party and prepared to pull the trigger in his hand. But then the Mongol stopped and began to talk to one of his men. Zhao Wankui thought that the opportunity could not be lost, and immediately opened fire.

With a snap, the lead shot fired by the bird gun accurately hit the Mongolian officer, who was giving orders. Before he could figure out what was happening, he was shot and killed right away.

As Zhao Wankui's bird gun sounded, many feather arrows and lead pellets shot out of the grass one after another. The careless Mongols were instantly knocked down, and the team was thrown into chaos.

"Kill the past and block their back road." He Zongwei, who had already prepared on the side, rushed out quickly with his pikemen and sword players, and directly killed the rear of the group of Mongols.

"Kill." In the forest in front of the Mongols on the right, Zhou Shaoteng and Fan Shunjiang also immediately rushed out with dozens of cavalry.

Finding that the Mongols had been ambushed, they reacted quickly, and they immediately turned their horses and ran to the rear, intending to quickly retreat to a distant place to regroup, and the two cavalry led by them were about to rush out.

It's just that at this time, He Zongwei had already led someone to intercept and kill him, and the war horse of a Mongolian cavalry was heavily stabbed in the abdomen by He Zongwei, and the wailing war horse directly threw the Mongolian cavalryman off the horse.

One of the sword players of Duhe Fort held his shield to block the swords, and he lowered his head and brandished his sword to slash the foot of another Mongol cavalryman's horse. However, before he had time to pursue the two Mongols who had fallen off their horses, he immediately retreated to the rear and formed a defensive formation with his comrades around him to deal with the Mongols who were about to rush out.

Zhou Shaoteng saw that his infantry had successfully blocked the enemy's rear road, and quickly slapped his horse forward, slashing the head of a Mongolian cavalry archer with a knife. This Mongolian shot himself with two arrows in succession just now, fortunately he was wearing the cold forging armor newly sent by Jinding Mountain, otherwise he would really have to go to see the king of Hades.

At this time, another Mongolian cavalryman rushed towards Zhou Shaoteng with a hand-held axe, Zhou Shaoteng responded calmly, cut off the opponent's right hand holding the weapon with a backhand, and then stabbed the enemy's stomach with the tip of the knife.

Zhou Shaoteng's subordinates who had gone through the battle formation also rushed over one after another at this time, slashing the surrounding Mongols one after another, and one of the lancers used the line gun in his hand to directly pierce a Mongol officer who commanded the battle after the rapid charge.

The Mongolian rangers, who were cornered, finally showed their ruthlessness. They desperately sacrificed their lives to kill, and finally broke through a gap in He Zongwei's infantry team, and Mongols kept rushing out of this gap.

He Zongwei noticed that something was wrong, and personally led people to intercept it, and after several desperate battles, the gap was finally blocked. Unexpectedly, however, the Mongols, who had rushed out, turned back and attacked their flank, opening another gap in the defensive line elsewhere.

Finding that his intercepted infantry team could not resist, Zhao Wankui and his subordinates dropped the bird guns and bows and arrows in their hands, and all rushed out with big sticks, overturning three Mongolian cavalry one after another.

It's just that although they fought bravely, it was a pity that it didn't help the overall situation. Of the encircled Mongolian rangers, more than a dozen of them managed to escape. These men used their bows and arrows to shoot back at the pursuing cavalry of Duhe Fort, and at the same time urged their horses to flee quickly to the north.

Fan Shunjiang led his pursuing archers to chase and kill, and finally chased down five more escaped Mongolian cavalry archers. Three of the Mongol cavalrymen were shot by Fan Shunjiang, but when Fan Shunjiang intended to continue shooting the enemy, his horse was shot dead by the Mongols.

Fan Shunjiang, who fell off the horse, ignored his injuries and continued to shoot feather arrows. Unfortunately, he couldn't continue to make contributions, and he could only watch the other enemy troops successfully escape. The Mongols, with their excellent horses, gradually threw the cavalry pursuing Duhebao farther and farther away.

Although it is a pity that we were not able to leave all the enemy forces behind, the overall result is not bad. After that, Zhou Shaoteng led the cavalry team to the direction of the big boss's defense, intending to support Zhang Mengjin. Zhao Wankui led other subordinates to clean up the battlefield and treat his own wounded at the same time.

This not very perfect ambush battle only lasted for a short period of time, and Zhao Wankui and his gang achieved a very good result. The forty-two Mongol cavalrymen who entered their ambush circle, because of the negligence of these Mongols themselves, left behind a total of thirty-three corpses.

The 227 Ming officers and soldiers who ambushed them paid the price of 9 killed and 16 wounded. Five other horses were shot dead and three wounded. At the same time, the officers and soldiers also obtained forty-four horses and a lot of armor equipment. Coupled with the twenty-six horse corpses on the battlefield, the celebration banquet after Duhe Fort is definitely expected.

Zhao Wankui, who had cleaned up the battlefield, returned to the military fort with his subordinates. Knowing that Guan Zhiqing, who stayed in the military fort, also successfully pursued the fleeing enemy and captured the first rank, and there were no casualties on his side.

It's just that Zhang Mengjin, the big boss, did not go as smoothly as Kekechuan, but suffered some losses at the hands of the Mongols. The remaining men and horses in the ambush of Shuangmiaoer were discovered in advance by another group of Mongolian rangers.

Zhang Mengjin and they had to deal with the enemy's arrow rain head-on, and directly began to charge the other party, the enemy did not carry out too much entanglement, and retreated smoothly with the troops before the cavalry led by Zhou Shaoteng arrived.

In the end, the team led by Zhang Mengjin himself only achieved the result of decapitation of the third level, and there was the corresponding armor waist knife, as well as the nine Dama abandoned by the Mongols, and more than 370 feather arrows left on the battlefield.

The casualties of Zhang Mengjin's team were five soldiers killed and thirteen wounded. Zhang Zhaoen and Che Jibao, who led the cavalry in pursuit, were shot and wounded in the battle. The horses of the cavalry were also shot six dead and twelve wounded.

In addition to the command mistake in this battle, Zhang Mengjin's failure to bring the bird gun team out is also one of the important reasons for this result. Afterwards, Zhang Mengjin sent a letter to Jin Dingshan's third brother, agreeing to Zhang Mengcheng's previous plan to concentrate the cottage power to make bird guns.
