Today's first update is delivered! "What to do?" ”

"What should I do?"

"What should I do?" Hasson felt like he was going crazy.

He stroked his bare head vigorously, as if he was going to rub his scalp off completely. His cheeks were very dark red as a result, as if there were crabs crawling down there. In fact, under his vigorous back and forth, his scalp was indeed shining, as if it could reflect the light of the sun.

In fact, Huang Taiji did not require the Mongols to shave like the Manchurians, but in order to please Huang Taiji, Hasen took the initiative to learn from the Manchurians, shaved off his head, and then made a standard pig tail on the back of his head. Usually, when there is nothing to do, Hasen will show off his pig tail to his companions and show off his loyalty to Huang Taiji. But now, Hasan regretted it, and he preferred that he had never been loyal to Huang Taiji. If it weren't for his outstanding behavior and the attention of Huang Taiji, he would not have the status he has today. Similarly, if it weren't for Huang Taiji's special attention, he would not have been appointed to garrison Pinggang, and he would not have been subjected to a sudden attack by the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army. To put it bluntly, all this in front of him was caused by himself.

At this moment, Hasen, facing the bad situation on the battlefield, doesn't know what to do at all. His battlefield experience is not particularly rich. He had never encountered such a situation before. Because, before that, there was no other enemy at all, who was equally good at riding and shooting. Well, the former Manchurians do not count.

In the face of an enemy who is not good at cavalry archery, the Mongol cavalry can use the range advantage of bows and arrows to shoot the opponent cleanly. As long as the two sides maintain a distance, the power of the Mongolian cavalry archers is absolutely rare in the world. That's what Hasen is good at. However, "when the enemy's weapons were longer than the Mongols' bows and arrows, he was helpless."

The Mongols' mangu tactics do not seem to be suitable for the situation at hand. Mangu's tactics are based on the range advantage of their own weapons. Without the range advantage of weapons, Mangu will only let his back be exposed to the enemy in vain, "let the enemy kill himself from behind in vain."

The situation is very bad now, if the two sides shoot each other, the Mongols may still be able to inflict a little casualties on the Tiger Army, and if they turn around and retreat, the muskets from behind will definitely knock the Mongol cavalry to the ground. Being beaten to death from behind is an insult no matter how you say it.

Rushing forward?

Rushed directly into the ranks of the Tiger Army, "Start hand-to-hand combat?

It's certainly okay to rush forward. Hasen believed that as long as his subordinates could rush into the opponent's formation and launch hand-to-hand attacks, they could mess up the opponent's musket shooting. However, the consequences of rushing forward are severe. Once rushed in, all the people had no chance to come out, and the hand-to-hand combat was already very bloody, and the casualty ratio was very close. No matter how fierce a person is, it is impossible to defeat a large number of opponents. The lion falls into the wolves" and the consequences are unpredictable.

As the battle unfolded, the casualties of the Mongol cavalry were obviously much greater than the Huben army. In other words, at present, the number of cavalry of the Tiger Army is much more than that of the Mongol cavalry. Once the Mongol cavalry entered the Tiger Army, "it was bound to be attacked by several Tiger Army cavalry." Two fists are hard to beat with four hands, and the fate of the Mongolian cavalry is definitely not good. What Hasson felt most painful was that there were only archers and no spears under his command. Actually, this is Zaisangbu and his care for him. Because, in the Mongolian cavalry, professional cavalry archers are the most elite. It is much more difficult to train an archer than a spearman. The two Mongolian thousand-man teams are all mounted archers, which ordinary people can't do.

But at this time, Hasson really hoped that his subordinates were all spearmen who were good at hand-to-hand combat. If it's a spearman, you can rush into the ranks of the Tiger Army and go on a killing spree. With the hand-to-hand combat ability of the spear cavalry, it will definitely make the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army scream and have a headache. Archers, you can't fight hand-to-hand! The archer rider only has a machete for protection, not even a spear, how can he fight hand-to-hand? Retreat?

It's hard to explain!

What kind of character Huang Taiji is, Hasen still knows a little.

Although he is Zai Sambuhe's nephew, Yihuang Taiji, if he wants to enforce military law, he has only one way to die. Zai Sambu and his support for Huang Taiji is very firm. If he retreated without authorization, Zai Sambu and would never intercede for him, and it was even entirely possible to tie him up and send him directly to Huang Taiji for processing.

What to do?

What to do?

What to do? Hassan felt a terrible pain in his mind.

"Hassan, make a decision as soon as possible!"

A Mongolian commander screamed as if begging for mercy.

Another Mongolian commander was also full of anticipation.

After a period of fighting, the Mongol cavalry had already lost more than half of their casualties, and they were eager for Hasen to order a retreat as soon as possible. The troops suffered such heavy casualties that if they had been replaced by ordinary Mongol cavalry, they might have been dispersed. Because they are the elite of the Horqin tribe, they can still hold out until now.

"Rush forward!"

"Fight them hand-to-hand!" Hassan shouted viciously.

Imperial

Both commanders were dumbfounded? Rushing forward?

Isn't this suicide?

What a brain-dead decision to fight the enemy hand-to-hand with an archer!

"Rush forward!"

"You two dare to retreat?" Hassan stared at the two fiercely.

"Don't dare!"

The two commanders hurriedly said.

Of course, they understood who Hassen was concerned about. For the person whom Hassen had scruples, they themselves were also scruples. His methods did make all the Mongols dare not challenge. If they retreat without permission, the three of them are very likely to be divided by the five horses and die. I had no choice but to rush forward.

"Woooooo

The low horn of the bull once again passed through the entire battlefield.

Hearing the sound of horns, there was a slight stagnation in the movements of "almost all the Mongol cavalry". Obviously, they also did not expect that the order from above "actually went forward, not retreated." They are all archers, they are not good at hand-to-hand combat at all, rushing forward, hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, isn't that looking for death? But there was an order from above, and they did not dare to disobey it. They had no choice but to draw their scimitars and prepare to rush forward.

"Manguo?"

Zhang Zhun frowned quietly.

Zhang Zhun didn't understand the meaning of the Mongolian bullhorn, he thought that the Mongolian cavalry was about to retreat, and then adopted the tactics of Mangu and tried to drag down the cavalry of the Tiger Army. If this is the case, the Tiger cavalry can take the opportunity to snowball in an orderly manner" and continue to shoot at the Mongol cavalry until they have all been shot. In the face of long-range firearms like the Tiger Bentong, use Mangu? I'm afraid it's a little funny.

"Huh? Is it actually going to charge? ”

After a while, Zhang Zhun realized that the Mongols were not going to be mangu, but to attack. Because, many Mongolian cavalrymen put their bows and arrows behind their backs, and then pulled out their sharp scimitars. Because they were not equipped with spears, these Mongol cavalry archers had to use scimitars if they wanted to fight hand-to-hand.

Charging with archers" Trying to fight the Tiger Army, this is really dizzy.

I don't even have a spear, what a fart in hand-to-hand combat! But "that's the only way for Husson to survive." The Mongol archers were not good at hand-to-hand combat, so how could the Huben cavalry be good at hand-to-hand combat?

The hand-to-hand weapons of the cavalry of the Tiger Army "consisted only of an eagle glasses and a dagger." Good. Negligible. The Hawkeye can only be used once, and after the shot, it needs to be reloaded before it can be used again. As for the waist knife......... I'm sorry, the cavalry of the Tiger Army, not equipped. Therefore, if the two armies really fight hand-to-hand, it will really be the scum with a combat effectiveness of only 5, and the challenge combat effectiveness will only be a scum.

"Doot toot!"

The passionate conch horn sounded quickly.

All the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army, when they heard the conch, their expressions became solemn.

The Conch was reminding them that the enemy was about to charge, trying to rush up and engage them in hand-to-hand combat, and they had to be prepared to withstand the impact and hand-to-hand combat. Of course, this is also a disguised reminder to them that it is best to do everything possible to knock them all to the ground before the Mongol cavalry rushes up. As long as the Mongol cavalry was not allowed to rush in front of him, the charge of the Mongol cavalry was a complete act of suicide.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

The gunfire of the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army suddenly became fierce.

The Mongol cavalry, which was within the range of Mini's bullets, fell to the ground one after another as if they were harvesting wheat. Those Mongol cavalrymen who exchanged their bows and arrows for waist knives were shot by Mini bullets, and they had no ability to fight back at all, and it was impossible for them to throw the scimitars in their hands from dozens of meters away, causing casualties to the Tiger Ben army.

After realizing the danger, all the tiger mirrors of the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army shot almost together. In this way, nearly three thousand Mini shells flew over together, and the damage to the Mongol cavalry was absolutely unprecedented. The Mongol cavalry in the front two rows almost fell to the ground. In other words, in the blink of an eye, at least three or four hundred more Mongols lost their lives.

"Stop attacking!"

Hassan hurriedly roared.

The volley of the Tiger Army shocked Hasen.

He didn't realize that the Tiger Cavalry needed at least ten seconds to reload after a salvo. Those ten seconds were a good opportunity for him to attack. Taking advantage of this gap, the Mongol cavalry had a chance to rush in front of the cavalry of the Tiger Army. Instead, Hassan misjudged.

It is not surprising that Hassen, who has a big head like a bucket, makes a wrong judgment. In fact, even the two Mongol commanders thought so. The muskets of the Tiger Army were so sharp, if the Mongol cavalry continued to rush forward, wouldn't they all be wiped out? I'm afraid that I didn't have the ability to rush into the ranks of the Tiger Ben Army's cavalry, and they were all knocked to the ground. Therefore, Hasson decisively chose to abandon the attack.

"This Hasson is very cooperative!"

Now that the Mongolian cavalry actually canceled the attack again, Zhang Zhun couldn't help but smile slightly.

Of course, there are some disappointments. The hand-to-hand charge of the Mongol cavalry could certainly inflict large casualties on the Tiger Army, but after the Mongols rushed up, it was impossible to retreat. The Tiger Ben army desperately consumed more lives, "and also to kill all the Mongols." In other words, as long as the Mongols rushed up, they waited for the total army to be destroyed.

When it comes to fighting population loss, who is afraid of whom? Some of our Han people are people, "one by one, and it is easy to exterminate both the Mongols and the Manchurians." Even if he sacrifices a thousand soldiers today, he can quickly replenish it tomorrow. There are at least tens of thousands of young people who want to join the Tiger Army.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Whoosh!"

Now that the hand-to-hand charge has been canceled, the only way to continue to retreat is to shoot himself, and Hasson will not dare unless the troops completely collapse "out of his control." Prior to this, Hassen's only order was to continue to shoot at the Tiger Army, hoping to continue to inflict effective casualties on the Tiger Army, hoping to force the Tiger Army to collapse first and retreat first, thereby reversing the situation on the battlefield.

In the fierce confrontation between the two sides, "people on both sides are constantly dying." At the time of the shortest boat, the distance between the two armies was less than thirty meters. In terms of horsemanship, most of the Mongolian cavalry were at least two grades higher than the cavalry of the Tiger Army. As for their archery skills, not to mention, they are definitely fast, accurate and ruthless.

The advantages of the Tiger Ben Army lie in their strict discipline, high morale, and strict tactical coordination. Of course, "there is also the great power of the Tiger Bent, the long range." The cavalry of the Tiger Army, which had undergone strict training, "may be inferior to the Mongol cavalry" in terms of individual combat effectiveness, but as a whole, "discipline and organization are absolutely beyond the reach of the Mongols." Even if there are large casualties among the troops, the other soldiers will not be affected in any way.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

One arrow after another, constantly flying, shot into the body of the Tiger Ben cavalry, and knocked the Tiger Ben cavalry off the horseback one by one. Or shoot the horse and throw him to the ground. Blood gushed out, staining the originally dry fields a dark red. The fallen war horses and the constant neighing made the battlefield even more tragic.

However, if the Mongols shot their horses, they would not be able to make the Huben cavalry lose their combat effectiveness. Because, the cavalry base of the Tiger Ben Army is stationary, even if it falls, the injury will not be very serious. They got up from the ground and could continue shooting. Moreover, from a certain angle, shooting from the ground is more rapid and ferocious than shooting on horseback.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With the sound of gunshots, one after another Mini bullets flew over with a whistling and shot into the bodies of the Mongolian cavalrymen, knocking them over to the ground. The Mongol cavalry was constantly changing its route at a high gallop, trying to dodge the attack of the Mini bullets.

However, on the side of the Tiger Army, the shooting of Mini is too high. As long as there are about 30% of the Mini bullets that can hit the target, the consumption of the Mongolian cavalry is as fast as the Feiliu Waterfall. The Mongol cavalry that rushed to the front basically could not escape the fire of Mini's bullets.

Suddenly, a Mongolian cavalryman ran straight to the outside of the battlefield and never returned. Obviously, this is the collapse of the Mongol cavalry, and there is a phenomenon of flight. The movement of this Mongolian cavalryman, like a fuse, detonated the escape of the other Mongolian cavalry, and they also galloped away around the battlefield, never to be replaced.

In fact, there were only three or four hundred Mongolian cavalry capable of retreating. The two fully manned Mongol thousand-man teams fought until they had less than 20% of their strength left, and then they completely collapsed, and they were already the elite of the elite. If the other Mongol cavalry were replaced, when the loss of fifty or sixty percent was over, they would all be scattered.

"Withdraw!"

Hassen's face was full of helplessness and said bitterly.

The troops had already dispersed, and he couldn't stop it, so he could only flee with it.

All he had to do now was to flee to Zaisambu and there, and beg his uncle to spare his life. As long as Zai Sambu and the old love are remembered, he may be able to pick up a life. Subsequently, Hassen felt that it was not good, and his uncle turned his face and did not recognize people, and handed himself over to Huang Taiji, and it was over. He thought about it, and simply took a few henchmen and galloped directly to the north.

Hasen was ready to go directly out of the customs and go back to the Mongolian steppes to intercede with his aunt. If it doesn't work, then we have to take other life-saving measures. When necessary, he even did not hesitate to detain Zaisambu and several of his sons. As for where the rest of the Mongol cavalry would flee, he didn't care at all.

"Don't chase!"

Zhang Zhun waved his hand to stop the pursuit of the Huben cavalry.

Time is pressing, "poor Kou Mo chasing" to deal with the aftermath, and it is right to retreat quickly, believing that the Tartar forward battalion "is already on the way out." Let those who have lost their fighting spirit to the Mongolian cavalry, pass on the heroic posture of the Tiger Ben cavalry to all the Tartar cavalry and Mongolian cavalry, and know that it will be a great blow to their morale.

The current Mongols and Tatars are most proud of their field capabilities. They believed that the Tiger Army was incapable of leaving the fortified fortress and fighting them in the field on a flat field. The battle of Pinggang is to break this myth of theirs. When the field advantage they relied on for survival was also cracked by the Tiger Ben Army, their end would really come.

"Clean up the battlefield and count the losses."

Zhang Zhun said calmly.

After the fierce battle, the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army "dismounted one after another and cleaned the battlefield on foot." This is to clean up the battlefield at the same time, so that the war horse can get some time to rest and recover some physical strength. After a while, they will retreat quickly. Galloping back and forth for 200 miles is indeed a severe test for horsepower.

Wang Laohu led a group of soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army into Pinggang, brought out a large amount of forage, and brought clean water, dissolved a large amount of salt in the clear water, and then provided it to all the war horses to eat and drink. After a long run, drinking some salt water can make the horse recover its strength as soon as possible, which is conducive to continuing to run.

In fact, there was nothing to clean up on the battlefield, and the Mongols' weapons "Tiger Ben Army" did not need them. These Mongol cavalrymen also had little money. The only thing that is more valuable is probably their bow and arrows and scimitars. It's a pity that these two things, in the eyes of the Tiger Benjun, exist as souvenirs and the like. If you're interested, you can take a few back and give them away.

In the station of Pinggang, there is no cash either. The population and materials looted by the Tartars were all concentrated in Hejian Province and managed in a unified manner, and they would only be distributed to individuals after returning to the prairie. Nothing else noteworthy. In general, these two Mongolian thousand-man teams are poor ghosts, and they have nothing but war horses.

After counting, a total of 273 soldiers of the Huben cavalry were killed, and the number of wounded was about the same. In addition, more than 100 horses were lost. As for the results, they are quite impressive. At least 1,200 corpses of Mongolian cavalrymen were counted at the scene, as well as more than 300 wounded. The Tiger Army did not need the wounded, therefore, these wounded were quickly turned into corpses by the Tiger Army cavalry with daggers.

The biggest gain of the Tiger Ben Army is that it has captured more than 100 war horses that can still be used. Originally, the Mongols had a considerable number of horses, at least two thousand. Unfortunately, three or four hundred Mongol cavalry escaped. The other horses were hit by Minnie's bullets, and they were either killed or wounded, and could not be used any longer.

"My lord, there's a stable here!"

Suddenly, Liu Jixiang shouted excitedly.

"Stables?"

Zhang Zhun hurriedly rode his horse and rushed over.

Good fellows, to the north of Pinggang, there's also a huge stable. Inside the stables, there are at least two thousand intact war horses! There's also plenty of forage!

How could the Mongols have so many war horses? Zhang Zhun quickly figured it out. The Mongol cavalry had come this time for the purpose of plundering, and each of them almost carried two, three, or even more horses. These horses, on long marches, can be used in rotation. When a large amount of goods are looted, it can be used to disgrace the goods. In normal times, these surplus war horses are stored in this stable. As a result, now, they have all been captured by the cavalry of the Tiger Army.

"Good thing!"

"We'll need it on our return trip!"

Zhang Zhun said calmly.

Before, he was still a little worried that on the return trip, he would be caught up by the Tartars' forward battalion because of horsepower problems. In case of a lifetime of fighting, it will be detrimental to the cavalry of the Tiger Army. Now, there is no problem at all. With these war horses as a new force, there is no problem at all with the return journey of the Tiger Ben Army.

"Gather all the horses!"

"Herald! Replace the warhorse! ”

Zhang Zhun calmly commanded.

The cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army came up one after another and changed their horses. After a while, everyone rode on these captured war horses, and after a short training, these war horses were obedient. Those original war horses can go back easily without burden.

"Da Da Da!"

"Da Da Da!"

"Da Da Da!"

A moment later, the sound of horses' hooves sounded again, and the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army quickly moved away.

Behind them, only a wolf-like battlefield was left, waiting for the arrival of Huang Taiji's reinforcements.
