Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Prince Dies: (Ask for Collection)

"Surrender and don't die! Surrender and don't die! "The Western Sichuan Army has completely surrounded the Mongol cavalry. So far in the battle, the Mongol cavalry has suffered heavy losses, and many people have been frightened. They're warriors, that's right. But they don't want to fight to the death in such a desperate battle!

"Attack! Attack me and kill all those dogs! "Boyan Nemohu was still roaring. Under the protection of a group of guards, he was not injured and was still intact. However, most of his guards had already suffered casualties.

"Surrender! Lay down your arms and spare you from dying! The Sichuan West Army shouted loudly again.

Many Mongolian cavalrymen, accepting the miserable reality, put down their bows and arrows and sabers, and led their horses to the western Sichuan army, intending to surrender in exchange for their lives.

"Coward! You cowards, you are not worthy to be warriors of the Mongols, you are not worthy to be the descendants of Geith Khan! Enraged, he picked up his bow and arrows and opened his bow to shoot at a surrendering Mongol cavalryman.

"Huh", the bow and arrow were shot, and they accurately hit the back of the Mongolian cavalryman's heart. The body of the Mongolian cavalryman immediately fell to the ground, a mouthful of blood gushing out of his mouth, and his eyes slowly lost focus.

"Whoever dares to say surrender again, this is the end! Attack, give me offense! Boyan Nemu ordered viciously.

The Mongol cavalry, who were about to surrender, were immediately shocked.

"What's the matter with those Mongols? Aren't you ready to surrender? Why did it stop again? Wang Yuze was very surprised. Up to now, the battle has been carried out very smoothly, and the Western Sichuan Army still has zero casualties. If these Mongol cavalry could surrender, it would be perfect. However, it seems that there is a problem now!

"I don't know, order the troops in front to get ready, and open fire as soon as the Mongolian cavalry moves!" Cai Yun shook his head. But, in any case, it was the most important thing to ensure that the Kawanishi Army won the victory at the lowest cost.

The soldiers of the Western Sichuan Army, although they have stopped shooting. But their guns were still pointed at the Mongol cavalry. As soon as they show signs of attacking, they will open fire again with all their might, completely destroying them.

"Your Royal Highness, we can't fight anymore, we have already lost 20,000 sons. If these sons die in battle again, our Horqin Department will be finished! One of the banner lords turned over and dismounted, knelt down in front of Boyan Nemohu, and pleaded bitterly.

"Your Royal Highness, we have failed, surrender! We should take these sons out of the grassland, and we should bring them back as much as we can. These sons and daughters are the future of our Mongolian people! The other flag owners also pleaded for mercy. Obviously, the previous battle had shaken them deeply. The firepower of the Western Sichuan Army was too strong, and a forced attack was simply looking for death. This can no longer be called a battle, it is simply a massacre. No one wants to die, especially this kind of free death.

"You guys! You cowards! You are not worthy to be the sons of Gehis Khan. Well, if you want to surrender, surrender, I, Boyan Nemohu, will not surrender! Brothers, rush me! Boyan Nemohu shouted loudly and took the lead in rushing towards the position of the Western Sichuan Army. His hundreds of guards, with a determined look in their eyes, rode up and followed. But the rest of the Mongol cavalry stopped where they were and did not follow.

"Prepare to fire!" The movement of the Mongol cavalry immediately attracted the attention of the western Sichuan army, and the commander of the front line was about to order fire.

"Wait a minute, there is only a small group of Mongols. Don't fire mortars, use heavy machine guns to destroy them! "The commander of the Second Cavalry Corps, Zhao Bowen, changed the order.

In front of the position of the Western Sichuan Army, more than ten heavy machine guns were aimed at Boyan Nemohu and his personal guards.

"Da Da Da!" The low roar unique to the heavy machine guns of the Western Sichuan Army rang out, and rows of bullets quickly exploded towards Boyan Nemohu and his guards.

"Poof! Burst! Burst! The guards who surrounded Boyan Nemohu were shot and fell to the ground. Those guards were very conscientious, knowing that they were dead, but they still protected Boyan Namohu in the middle.

Boyan Nemohu's eyes were red and he was surrounded by fewer and fewer people. When he rushed to less than a hundred meters from the position of the Western Sichuan Army, all the guards around him had fallen.

However, Boyan Nemohu did not charge again, he reined in his horse, took out his bow and arrow with his backhand, and shot an arrow at the western Sichuan army with his bow. Subsequently, his body was hit by a heavy machine gun bullet with more than a dozen holes, and the whole person fell under the war horse and lost his life. The arrow he shot hit the shield of the heavy machine gun of the Western Sichuan Army, making a "dang" sound.

The Mongol cavalry, perhaps the most powerful force a few hundred years ago, is now outdated!

The death of Boyan Nemohu broke the will of the Mongol cavalry to resist, and the remaining nearly 30,000 Mongol cavalry all surrendered to the Western Sichuan Army. The Western Sichuan Army won the battle at the cost of zero casualties. Of course, a couple of soldiers who were burned by carrying shells to their feet and by replacing the barrels of heavy machine guns do not count.

"Gather his body and hand it over to his family when the war is over!" Wang Yuze said to Cai Yun. Although it is a bit stupid, it is also admirable. Both sides are their masters, and the death of Boyan Nemohu on the battlefield can be regarded as the fate of the soldiers.

"Hmmm! It's a pity that he chose the wrong master! Cai Yun also sighed.

Soon, the Western Sichuan Army took control of all the prisoners, and the Mongol cavalry, which had their horses, sabers, bows and arrows, was no different from the tigers without their minions, and now that their fighting spirit had been lost, it was enough for the Western Sichuan Army to leave a battalion of soldiers to control them.

Next, the western Sichuan army continued to march eastward, and the troops came to the city of Xi'an.

"Coming to Prince Korqin failed. But why didn't anyone escape? Could it be that all 50,000 Mongol cavalry were killed? On the walls of Xi'an City, Zhu Hongzhang and others were waiting for the final result. But when tens of thousands of western Sichuan troops marched into Xi'an City, they still felt shocked. They originally thought that Boyan Namohu would be defeated at most, but they didn't expect it to be like this.

"General, what shall we do? Now coming to Horqin to protect His Royal Highness is more than lucky! "Shaanxi Governor Wei Guangtao's face is also a little bad, Boyan Nemohu has an accident, they will definitely not be able to get rid of responsibility.

"Report it truthfully to the imperial court! As long as we hold the city of Xi'an, it will also be a great achievement! Zhu Hongzhang said a little decadently.

Now, there are only 80,000 troops left in Xi'an, and all of them are green battalion soldiers. The only advantage is probably that the city wall of Xi'an is much stronger than that of Baoji, and it is not so easy for the western Sichuan army to blow up the city wall of Xi'an. In addition, Xi'an is an important city, the defense is very strong, on the wall of Xi'an, there are more than 20 05mm light howitzers and 40 75mm cannons produced by the Jinling Manufacturing Bureau on each side, and a large number of turrets have been built to provide protection for the defenders. This is also why Zhu Hongzhang and others have the determination to hold Xi'an.

When the Western Sichuan Army arrived in Xi'an, it was already dark, because it had taken a lot of time to destroy the Mongol cavalry. It was getting late, and the Western Sichuan Army did not attack the city, but camped six kilometers from Xi'an. At the same time, a large number of scouts were dispatched to pay close attention to the movements of the Qing army in Xi'an.

The gate of Xi'an City was closed, and the Qing army inside was already frightened, and the 50,000 Mongolian cavalry were wiped out in a few hours. If it weren't for the strong city walls as a backing, it is estimated that many Qing troops would have abandoned the city and fled. But even so, the morale of the Qing army was extremely low, and if it were not for the strict management of the generals at all levels of the Qing army, it is estimated that there would be many deserters.

The western Sichuan army began to rest, and although there were no casualties during the day, the soldiers were still very tired after a few hours. Especially for those artillerymen, many of them were tired from carrying shells and couldn't even hold chopsticks in their hands, and it took time for them to recover. Fortunately, the Qing army was frightened, and they didn't dare to sneak attack if they gave them the guts.
