The Tartars were condescending, and a round of arrows rained down, and the Ming army was suddenly killed and wounded. Fortunately, General He's army was also battle-hardened, and after a period of panic, he immediately set up a chariot formation according to the general's order, parked the chariots on both sides, and turned over the folding boards to form artificial fortresses.

The shield bearers holding a huge shield with a height of one person also formed a shield wall, and the two wings of sanitation were also formed. By the time the defensive formation was hastily formed, one out of ten of the Ming army had already gone. Imperial Envoy Ye hurriedly jumped off the horse and got into Liu Gong's car, and said in a trembling voice: "It's clear at a glance, where did the Tartar come from?" ”

The roof and the compartment panels on both sides of this car are made of thick wood, and they are not afraid of arrows, but when they hear the sound of tuk tuk arrows on the car board, Imperial Envoy Ye still can't help but feel cold. Gonggong Liu is a eunuch, but his courage is much greater than that of Imperial Envoy Ye, although the muscles on his cheeks twitch uncontrollably, mainly because he was nervous for the first time to experience this kind of war scene with thousands of troops.

There were no trees on the gentle slopes on either side, and the slopes were covered with snow until the summit, and there was nowhere to hide people, but at this time the Tatars in all kinds of costumes on the slopes of the hill were running back and forth to shoot arrows, and some of the hidden places had been destroyed.

Originally, a half-man-high wall was built on the slopes on both sides, and the wall was sloping upwards and covered with a layer of snow, and when viewed from below, it looked like a flat slope extending to the top of the mountain due to the angle.

The Mongolian people lived in the grassland desert, migrating from water to water, and had no fixed place to live, and invented some simple methods of building cities a long time ago, and in the winter when the cold wind was raging, they used weeds and dead branches mixed with cold water to freeze around the tent into a windbreak wall to protect them from the cold. They dug holes at night to boil water, and it only took them half the night to build these two gables with local materials.

Boyan Mengke learned of the tragic death of his beloved son and immediately withdrew his troops, led an army day and night, rushed to Yumutun, and after joining forces with Bodalmo, the strength had surpassed the Ming army, so he boldly abandoned his horse and fought with the Ming army on foot.

Now that the Ming army of Zhuolu and Chixian has been outflanked on both wings, he set up this plan, he just wanted to complete the battle, annihilate the Ming army, avenge his son, and then lead the army away.

General He Shen stabilized his position a little, and immediately shouted: "Beat the flag, order He Shijie to stick to the front line, Wang Chengxian lead people to attack the enemy troops on both sides, be sure to open a gap." Ordered Sun Dazhong and Bi Chun's rear team to change to the front team and quickly retreated. Zheng Yi'e suppressed the Chinese army! ”

Wang Chengxian ordered the archers to fire arrows at the enemy troops on both flanks to suppress them, and he led the sword and shield men and pikemen to storm the slopes on both sides to buy time for the army to retreat. On the hillside was the Tatar general Bodarmo commanded, seeing that the Ming army quickly stabilized its position and began a counterattack, Bodarmo immediately ordered: "Shoot the Ming army waving the flag, shoot the war horse, and stop the Ming army from forming a formation!" ”

The arrows roared like rain, so that the standard-bearer was killed on the spot by the stinging of the shooting, and at the same time many horses were hit by arrows, and the war horses roared in the valley in pain, and the Ming army was trampled by the war horses and suddenly the formation was chaotic, and the offensive was also blocked.

Wang Dusi commanded the men and horses of his headquarters to brave the rain of arrows to storm the right hillside, this hill is not high, control this commanding height, and then organize archers to counter-suppress the Tartars, you can stabilize the position. Otherwise, the army will be left in the valley and will only be able to die.

He personally supervised the battle with a sword, and the beast-like Ming army spread all over the mountains, launching attacks on the hillside again and again with flesh and blood. The dead fell one by one, no one sighed for the dead, no one even paid attention to who fell at their feet, in this battlefield of blood and fire, death became so ordinary, even a person who felt his surname would become insensitive.

Under the leadership of the chief and the sentry commander, the Ming army swarmed up, stepping on the corpses of their comrades to seek a glimmer of life. On the hillside, the Tartars relied on their geographical advantages and excellent archery skills, and every arrow must be captured.

Imperial Envoy Ye hid in the car and shouted tremblingly: "Lord He, Lord He, the Tartars have already been ambushed, and they should retreat quickly!" ”

General He Shen carried the Yanling knife, and said with a blue face: "I have sent someone to inform Bi Chun that this valley is narrow, which is not conducive to the assembly of our army, and if the rear army does not retreat, we will not be able to rush out!" ”

Imperial Envoy Ye said angrily: "Seeing that the army is in ambush, Bi Chun has not moved so far, we are about to be wiped out!" I'm going to take him for the crime of delaying the fighter! Lord He, I'm going to the back to supervise the battle! ”

As soon as he heard that he was going to the Bichun camp, he was in the way of pointing fingers here, so he immediately arranged for twenty shield bearers to escort him and Gonggong Liu away. A scholar, a eunuch, and two supreme commanders immediately stumbled to the back camp.

The valley at the foot of Wohu Mountain is gourd-shaped, and the spout is in the direction of the rooster's song. As soon as Bi Chun's army entered the valley, Yang Ling and Ma Li'er galloped into the army, and after listening to Yang Ling's nervous statement, Bi Chun also knew that the situation was serious, and was about to take him to meet General He, and the Tartars on both sides had already launched an offensive.

Under the cover of a round of arrow rain, a large number of Tartars rushed from the mid-mountain bunker to the valley mouth to intercept the retreat of the Ming army.

The purpose of Taniguchi Tartar is only to block the retreat, so they only hold the key point and do not attack. Each of these Tartars carried at least four quivers, and Bi Chun's southern army was dominated by hand-to-hand sword and shield bearers and firecrackers, and it was impossible to confront these brave and skillful Tartars.

In a moment, Taniguchi had left hundreds of corpses of the Ming army that were caught off guard, and the blood that was close at hand made Ma Li'er, who saw this kind of battle for the first time, pale as snow, or Yang Ling had a certain psychological ability to withstand the battle of defending the city, and pulled her to avoid being injured by the stray arrows.

The counterattack of the Ming army was quickly blocked by the sharp arrows of the Tartars, and the corpses fell to the narrow valley mouth, and the Ming army had to fight with the Tartars of the valley mouth for the only exit, and also had to deal with the sharp arrows that continued to accumulate overhead, and the casualties continued to increase.

Yang Ling noticed that the Ming army's counterattack was chaotic and could not play any threatening offensive at all. Their officers are not brave and brave and are not afraid of death, but they only know how to show off their personal bravery, and they are not at all effective in organizing soldiers to fight.

To put it bluntly, if they were allowed to form and arrange their formations in a step-by-step manner under the command of the generals on the plains, once such a scuffle occurred, and the superior officers could not effectively carry out the order, those low-level officers who could not even read the words would know that they would either take the lead or wield their swords to supervise the battle, and would not make good use of the reasonable combination of sword and shield bearers, musketeers, pikemen, and archers.

Yang Ling was so nervous that he was sweating when he saw such a military quality, but Ma Li'er was worried about his brother's safety, and he was relieved to see him standing beside Bi Dusi not far ahead.

At this moment, Imperial Envoy Ye and Gonggong Liu rushed over in embarrassment, and Imperial Envoy Ye was about to ask Bi Dusi for breaking through the siege, when he suddenly saw a woman in a green shirt, and said that it was Bi Dusi marching with his family, and he couldn't help but be even more angry in his heart.

Seeing that the Tartars in the valley were in a position to break through as soon as possible by virtue of the dangerous terrain, Bi Dusi was about to order his troops to attack the enemy army on the hillside, and condescendingly suppressed the Tartars with the power of muskets, but in the minds of Ye Yuenvoy and Liu Gonggong, opening the valley mouth would have a way to live, if he waited for him to attack the hillside first and then take the valley mouth in a roundabout way, I am afraid that the whole army would be wiped out at that time.

It was the two of them who unanimously said that they ordered him to immediately and forcibly open the valley mouth at all costs as a prison guard. Bidusi gave a foolish order to stop attacking the mountain, so he had to gather troops and forcibly attack Taniguchi. He ordered with a blushing face: "General Qi and General Lu, concentrate firearms and rockets to attack Gukou, only allow to enter, not retreat, and be sure to open a bloody road!" ”

He shouted to the captain of his own soldiers: "Guan Shou Ying's front to supervise the battle, one person will be killed if he retreats, and the captain will be killed if the whole team retreats, and the captain will be killed if the captain dies and the whole team retreats!" ”

The order is like a mountain, the two generals also know that this is the time when life and death hang in the line, and now ordered the team to brave the rain of arrows to forcibly attack the valley mouth, the arrows in front of it are like rain, although the two wings of the hillside are suppressed by the Ming army's firepower is still cold arrows, many soldiers just rushed out not far away, they were shot through the leather armor by sharp arrows, and the blood stained the earth.

The musketeers who rushed to the effective range fired in a volley, and although they also shot many Tartars, the sword and shield men behind did not have time to keep up with the charge, and the Tartars fired a volley of arrows and re-blockaded the valley mouth.

Yang Ling saw the heavy slamming of the carriage, he caught a glimpse of a horse corpse that fell to the ground, suddenly remembered a way, and immediately shouted: "Lord Bi, drive the war horse as a meat shield, and the army will follow behind the horse, and the gap will be opened!" ”

Gonggong Liu and Imperial Envoy Ye were overjoyed when they heard this, and immediately ordered General Bi to do the same. You must know that the war horse was worth nearly 400 at that time, and the Ming army has always had a shortage of war horses, so the soldiers in the army never thought of using the war horse as a weapon, at this time the army was life and death, where to take care of the horses, and now the remaining war horses were concentrated in front of the formation, about more than forty horses, the fire gun took the fire yao and sprinkled it on the horse's tail, as soon as the fire was ignited, the war horse was in pain, and immediately neighed and galloped forward.

Lin Dada, who led the army to guard the mouth of the valley, suddenly saw dozens of war horses with their tails on fire galloping wildly, the ground rumbled, and he was shocked to order the people to shoot arrows, and the arrows were shot out, and the lives of the horses were not as fragile as people after all, although a few horses fell down with a sad cry, most of the war horses still galloped wildly with arrows, broke up the formation of the tartars, and galloped out of the valley. Some of the soldiers who didn't have time to retreat didn't even have time to scream, and they were trampled into pulp by the horses.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Bidusi commanded the army to rush outward with arrows overhead, and Lin Dada immediately led the remaining 400 or so Tartars to meet him. Taniguchi was narrow, and only two hundred people were enough to seal it tightly, and the two armies immediately huddled together and started hand-to-hand combat at Taniguchi.
