Yan Hongxin said, at this moment, the soles of his feet are oiled, but there are Mongolian cavalry on all sides, leaving Ma Fang and Jinyiwei behind, he may not be able to escape back, what can he do if he retreats to Malianbao? He shook his head and said, "Qingyan, Hugh said this. Brothers, hurry up and reinforce you! ”

As soon as he gave an order, more than 50 brocade guards around him rode forward one after another and fought with the Mongolian cavalry. The "Zodiac" is as vigorous as a tiger and a leopard, and the twelve people are divided into three or four groups, covering each other, like a small military formation, inserted into the Mongol team. Their own martial arts surpassed those of ordinary Jinyi guards, but they rarely fought alone with the Mongols, and each time several people always fought back and forth, or one person came forward with a sword, while the people next to them slashed the horse's legs with a knife, or fired a short crossbow. It can be seen that the cooperation of these twelve people in the battle formation is also mature in practice. In a short time, they had already killed more than a dozen Mongolian cavalrymen in a row, and even killed a Mongolian centurion together. Coupled with the hard work of the rest of the Jinyi guards, the Mongolian cavalry who were fighting with Yun Chuqi were defeated and retreated.

Yun Chu saw that he had gained momentum for a while, and urgently ordered the Jinyi guard to take out the bird gun and line up to fire a salvo at the left flank of the Mongolian army. Three bursts of projectiles were fired, knocking down dozens of follow-up men and horses of the Mongolian army. In this way, the Mongolian cavalry, who was originally fighting with Ma Fang, was trimmed by the Jinyi guard musket on the flanks, and Ma Fang was slashed and killed in front of him, and he could no longer support it, so he had to retreat.

Ma Fang saw the Mongolian cavalry retreating, and said hurriedly: "Without further ado, hurry up and enter the city as a whole!" But the Mongol cavalry to the south, which had been repulsed earlier, had approached again. The Mongolian army in the northeast, which had just been repulsed, saw that the Ming army was about to withdraw, and soon began to regain its strength. The Mongol cavalry in the northwest. It also came galloping on horseback. It was about to cut off the way back to Marlenburg. Gather three ways of men and horses, and encircle and annihilate the 2,000 Ming troops who left the city in the southeast of Malianbao.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of drums and artillery firing from the head of Fort Maren. Then the south gate of Malianbao opened, and groups of infantry rushed out, and soon set up a formation under the city, and then slowly moved to the southeast. Look at the appearance. It seemed to be about to pick up the cavalry that had left the city and return to the city. Zhang Qingyan's eyes were sharp, and he hurriedly said to Yan Hong: "Xianggong, it seems to be General Yu's car camp!" ”

Yan Hong saw Yu Dayou coming out of the city for reinforcements, and put a stone in his heart. With the support of this famous general in history, his courage suddenly doubled that of Fang Cai, and he said continuously: "Very good, very good." General Ma, Wang Qianhu, Liu Qianhu, Brother Yun. I'll go and join General Yu at once!" ”

At this time, the Mongolian cavalry rushed from the northwest. Originally, it had already crossed the south gate of Malian Fort, and it was almost about to be inserted between Yan Hong's troops and Malian Fort. However, due to the fact that Yu Dayou's team went out of the city, it instead formed a front and rear attack on this Mongolian cavalry. If the Mongolian cavalry blindly attacked Yan Hong again, it would be tantamount to giving Yu Dayou a light on their backs. Sure enough, but the roar of the Franc machine gun outside the city was heard non-stop, and bursts of smoke rose faintly, and in the Mongolian cavalry, from time to time, people fell from their horses, and the formation was slightly chaotic. It is important to know that the most elite troops of the Mongols are the heavy cavalry that charges in formation, but this heavy cavalry is the best target for artillery fire. Now that Yu Dayou is firing from behind, where can the Mongolian army withstand it?

I heard that in the Mongolian army team in the northeast, the ten thousand households who led the team gave an order, and the horn sounded repeatedly, leaving about hundreds of horsemen to face Yan Hong's road, and the remaining three or four thousand cavalry, whistling and divided into more than ten teams, outflanked Yu Dayou's car formation from three sides. But in the midst of the car formation, the smoke of artillery fire rose one after another, and every time the cannon came out, one or two people in the Mongolian army would turn over with men and horses. Fifty paces later, the sound of the fire crackling rang out like popping beans, and the Mongols were more downcast, but they still rushed forward one after the other. In a moment, the Mongol army crashed into the outer edge of the car formation, but the front was immediately blocked. Looking from a distance, I saw that Yu Dayou's chariot formation was like a sausage twisting and turning outside Malian Fort, and the Mongolian cavalry was like a large group of ants climbing up, but none of them could rush in. After a short time, perhaps due to more casualties, the Mongol cavalry retreated in groups of three or five.

Seeing this, Ma Fang said happily: "General Yu is so powerful, I have a way out!" He asked Yan Hong's brocade guards to take the lead, commanded the cavalry of the border army, held shields, lined up in a horizontal formation, and trotted behind. The Mongolian cavalry chased after them, firing arrows in unison, and was mostly blocked by the shields of the border cavalry, so they could not hurt anyone. Closer, the border cavalry struck out from behind their shields with their firearms. After the Mongol cavalry broke through the fire bolt despite the casualties, the two armies began hand-to-hand combat again. The border army fought and left, but the Mongol army could not take advantage of it. Just like that, I walked in the direction of Marenburg.

At this moment, Yu Dayou's car formation actually began to slowly continue to move towards the southeast, the speed was very slow, but it was unstoppable. The Mongolian cavalry that was blocking between Yu Dayou and Yan Hong was shot out by rows of muskets, bows and arrows in the car formation, and they could no longer support it, so they had to dodge to both sides. Yu Dayou also ordered the use of Franc machine guns and exterminating cannons to bombard the two wings to contain the Mongol soldiers who tried to outflank the Ming cavalry.

With such a combination of foot and horse, Yan Hong and Ma Fang's team finally arrived in front of Checheng. Then, five or six partial box cars in the middle of the car city went inside, made way of a large road of several zhang, and took all the Ming cavalry into it.

After entering the car city, Yan Hongfang's heart that was hanging in his throat could be put down. Only then did I feel hot all over, my mouth was dry, and I felt that my vest was drenched with sweat. Zhang Qingyan helped him get off the horse, and a brocade guard had already taken the maza, asked Yan Hong to sit and rest, and someone sent him water packed in skins. Ma Fang also dismounted and said to Yan Hong: "The last general escort is late, which makes Qincha frightened, and even damages many Jinyi captains, and hopes that Qincha will forgive his sins." Qin Cha came to the battle in person today, killed a lot of thieves, and deserved to be both civil and military, and a pillar of the country. ”

Yan Hong took a few breaths, and poured two large mouthfuls of the water in his skin, only to feel that it was cool and permeable to his heart and spleen, which was extremely refreshing. He took a few more sips of water, and then waved his hand and said, "General Ma, there is no need to say that. The Tartars were cunning, and not only took advantage of Ben Chincha's time in Malian Fort to storm Malian Fort, but also specially arranged a team of cavalry to intercept Ben Chin Cha between Malian Fort and Wanquan Right Guard, with ruthless intentions. If it weren't for General Ma, you would have come to the rescue, but I am afraid that Ben Qincha would have fallen into the hands of the Tartars. General Ma, we can be regarded as friends of life and death. You can rest assured, the merits of today's bloody battles, I will definitely present the Ming court, and I will never let the soldiers of the border court suffer. ”

Ma Fang hurriedly said: "Qin Cha is so sympathetic, that is the blessing of the soldiers of the border court, I should make persistent efforts to repay the favor of the court." ”

Yan Hong smiled: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say." At this moment, he rested for a while, then stood up and carefully looked at the car formation deployed by Yu Dayou. This partial box car, positive box car, he has seen all the way since he left Beijing, and he has already seen it. Even when the school field was arranged, it was only when he saw Yu Dayou arranging the vehicles into a low wall, and the weapons and firearms were waiting for each other in the back, so he was so frightened that the chaotic soldiers did not dare to do anything wrong. Now it is the first time to see Yu Dayou's car formation against a strong enemy.

But I saw that Yu Dayou pushed out a total of more than 70 positive box cars and partial box cars, each of which was more than a foot wide and half a person high, and they were connected to each other by iron chains and ropes, just like a city. More than 10 vehicles were used on each side, forming a square car array with a side length of more than 100 steps. There are more than 10 vehicles in the formation, divided into three groups, for mobile filling. Each chariot has two Franco cannons and two crossbows, each operated by a soldier. In addition, dozens of soldiers were attached, some holding shields to fill the air raids on the vehicle formation; Some were armed with spears, some with bows and arrows, and most were armed with firearms such as firearms, tiger squat cannons, and exterminating cannons. There are also soldiers who are responsible for transporting weapons and carrying arrows and ammunition. There is also a brazier on board for lighting the rope. The entire vehicle formation, with more than 70 chariots, hundreds of artillery pieces, and more than 2,000 soldiers, into a whole, can indeed be called both offensive and defensive. It's just that Chechnya, which has a radius of more than 100 paces, not only accommodates more than 2,000 infantry, but also puts in more than 2,000 cavalry of Yan Hong and Ma Fang, which is inevitably a little crowded. Yu Dayou was draped all over his body, but he did not ride a horse, standing in front of the chariot array, looking outside from the gap in the visor.

At this time, the three teams of Mongolian cavalry outside had gathered together, each leaving the place where the chariot formation was a stone's throw away, and galloped around. Some winding clockwise, some winding counterclockwise, but seeing the horses galloping back and forth, the flags swaying, the sound of hooves like muffled thunder, ten thousand horses like stormy waves, almost swallowing this small car city. In a moment, the horns in the Mongol army roared in unison, and the Mongol cavalry surrounding all directions simultaneously let out an earth-shattering shout, sabers flashed, and arrows flew like locusts, and they swooped up to the middle of the circle together.
