Zhao led the remaining more than 800 cavalry to abandon the attack on the left flank of Jiannu and galloped towards the northwest, intending to get rid of the pursuit of the Jiannu cavalry behind.

It's not that he is afraid of war, but he doesn't want to fight hard with the Jiannu cavalry, because Zhao Shujiao knows in his heart that even if he fights all the eight hundred cavalry in his hand, he can't change the situation. And Sun Chuanting gave him the task of pestering the Jiannu infantry on the left flank, not to fight with the Jiannu cavalry.

Eight hundred cavalry galloped in the snowfield, all the way to the northwest, and when Zhao Shujiao looked back, he saw that this Jiannu cavalry was in hot pursuit.

"Damn, I don't know what is dead or alive, just let Lao Tzu slip you!" Zhao Shujiao scolded angrily, urging the war horse to rush away.

Since Jiannu wants to chase, let them chase, and he can take away almost two thousand Jiannu cavalry, which can be regarded as relieving some pressure on the superintendent, Zhao Shujiao said secretly.

Fleeing and chasing, he was getting farther and farther away from the main battlefield, and when he ran for almost four or five miles, Zhao Shujiao's heart was shocked, and he saw countless black spots in the distance ahead, which were so conspicuous in the snowfield, and they were rapidly approaching his side.

Cavalry, and massively cavalry! As a general commanding the cavalry, almost instantly, Zhao Shujiao judged that this was a cavalry with a scale of no less than 10,000 people!

Where did so many cavalry come from? Zhao Shujiao's heart was full of doubts, the troops around the Ming Jingshi were basically here, not to mention that except for Liaoxi Town, which had more cavalry, it was impossible for other border towns to have so many cavalry!

Could it be the Mongols? I heard that tens of thousands of Mongol cavalry followed the Jiannu invasion, but they did not follow under the city of Beijing, but plundered the area around the north wall of Ji. Could it be that these Mongols came to help Jiannu?

Didn't Inspector Sun send Zhang Shize's Yansui army to Jibei to recover the lost territory and rebuild the border wall defense system, could it be that Zhang Shize was defeated by the Mongols, and then the Mongols killed to help Jiannu?

Almost instantly, Zhao Shujiao had a judgment that these cavalry should be attacking the Mongols in the area of Jibei!

Originally, the Liaoxi soldiers were already very difficult against Jiannu, and the defeat was already a matter of time, if there were so many Mongols killed, in despair, the army would have to collapse directly!

No, these Mongols can't be allowed to rush to the battlefield, they must be stopped!

Almost instantly, Zhao Shujiao made up his mind, even if all the eight hundred cavalry under his command were killed, he had to drag these Mongols!

"Follow me!" Zhao Shujiao shouted, and the war horse accelerated abruptly, ran to the front of the whole army, and rushed towards the countless cavalry galloping in the distance.

The cavalry under his command naturally also saw the situation in the distance, and their faces showed complicated expressions. Attacking more than 10,000 cavalry with 800 remnants of cavalry, I am afraid that there will be no return, and these 800 cavalry do not know how many will survive.

"Damn, what about returning home with everyone's clothes, and selling the war horse to make everyone rich?" Some people scolded at Zhao Shujiao's back, secretly scolding Zhao Shujiao's words and not believing them.

However, no one hesitated, and they all followed Zhao Shujiao's horse and rushed forward.

When starting from Shanhaiguan, there were 4,000 iron horsemen, and now there are only 800 people left, and the original comrades all died for the country, and now it is their turn, let's fight this last time.

When a soldier eats food and a horse leather shroud, isn't this the fate of a soldier?

Half a mile away from the rear of the cavalry queue of Zhao Shujiao, Sakhalian, who commanded the cavalry of the Eight Banners, also saw the cavalry that appeared in the distance, and couldn't help laughing, Yue Tuo finally brought the Mongols over, although it was a little late, but finally came!

Huang Taiji sent Yue Tuo to Jibei to summon the Mongols, as Jiannu Belle, Sakhalian was naturally clear. Calculating the time, it should be the Mongolian soldiers brought back by Yue Tuo, but why didn't Yue Tuo send someone to deliver the letter in advance?

"Keep pursuing, and together with the Mongols, make dumplings for these damn Ming cavalry!" Sakhalian shouted.

At this time, Sakhalian didn't want to think too much, he just wanted to annihilate this Ming cavalry as soon as possible, and then return to the main battlefield with the Mongols to encircle and suppress the damned Liaoxi soldiers!

......

On the main battlefield, Sun Chuanting held a clairvoyant mirror and looked to the northwest, through which he could see that seven or eight miles away, countless cavalry appeared in the northwest direction, rushing towards the battlefield.

Could it be that Zhang Shize failed to stop the Mongols? Sun Chuanting suddenly frowned, feeling that something bad was going to happen.

The left flank has collapsed, the right flank is also in danger, the Chinese army is under siege by Jiannu, once this Mongol cavalry appears, there is no need to join the battlefield, the morale of the Liaoxi soldiers will collapse, and they will be defeated......

Could it be that the sky is going to die, my grandson Chuanting?

Sun Chuanting looked up at the blue sky, his heart was full of despair!

Since arriving in Liaoxi, he has worked hard and painstakingly to make Liaoxi look greatly, and finally trained a group of elite soldiers, thinking that he can compete with Jiannu on the battlefield, but he didn't expect to end up in a defeat.

What an unwillingness! If Cao Wenzhao's Liaoxi Iron Cavalry is here, this battle may not be lost!

But there is nothing unwilling to think about, after all, Cao Wenzhao's Liaoxi Iron Cavalry attacked Jiannu's lair, after all, the Ming army defeated Hetuala, killing countless people, and Jiannu's losses were much greater than those of the Ming Dynasty!

What if you are defeated? Even if these 40,000 Liaoxi soldiers are wiped out, what can they do? After this war, Jiannu's army and population were sharply reduced, and there was no longer a threat to the Ming Dynasty for at least twenty years!

At this moment, the unwillingness in Sun Chuanting's heart dissipated, and was replaced by incomparable satisfaction, because he saw that the Ming Dynasty had the hope of eliminating foreign enemies and getting ZTE!

Hey?

Sun Chuanting stopped in his reverie, held the clairvoyant mirror and looked intently, he found that the remnants of Zhao Shujiao's cavalry did not fight with the Mongols, but turned their horses' heads, converged with the "Mongols", and were facing this side of the formation. And the Jiannu cavalry, who was chasing the remnants of Zhao Sect's cavalry, seemed to be retreating rapidly!

What the hell is going on? Sun Chuanting was a little surprised.

Could it be that Zhao Shujiao surrendered to the Mongols, it is impossible!

Could it be that these Mongols didn't come to help Jiannu, but were subdued by Zhang Shize and rushed to fight for the Ming army?

All kinds of thoughts flashed in his mind, Sun Chuanting took the clairvoyant mirror and watched carefully, and finally he saw that in the middle of the large group of cavalry that was coming, a flag was waving in the wind, Sun Chuanting pointed the clairvoyant mirror at the flag, looked at it intently, and then smiled.

"Pass the order, the 50,000 border troops of Yansui and Yulin are about to arrive, and our reinforcements are about to arrive!" Sun Chuanting shouted loudly.

Following Sun Chuanting's words, several fast horses galloped towards the array, and the heralds on the horses shouted the news of the arrival of reinforcements as they ran. At the same time, the signal flag representing the arrival of reinforcements was quickly raised on the flagpole.

In a short period of time, all the officers and men of the Western Liaoning Army knew the news of the arrival of reinforcements, and their morale was greatly boosted!

......

Like Sun Chuanting, Huang Taiji's mood has also gone through the two heavens of ice and fire. The difference is that Sun Chuanting was shocked first and then happy, while Huang Taiji was first happy and then surprised, and then angry.

After discovering the arrival of the "Mongols", Sakhalian immediately sent his men to report back.

Huang Taiji didn't have a clairvoyant mirror and couldn't see that far, and after listening to the report of Sakhalian's subordinates, he didn't think much about it, and took it for granted that Yue Tuo brought back the Mongols, and he was naturally happy in his heart.

Although the Mongols arrived a little late, it was quite timely. The arrival of their own reinforcements will inevitably cause the Ming army to panic and demoralize, and perhaps the Ming army will collapse without much fighting. The arrival of the Mongols undoubtedly allowed the Eight Banners to reduce a number of casualties.

However, Huang Taiji was not happy for too long, and Sakhalian sent someone back again to report that it was not the Mongols who came, but the Ming cavalry, more than 10,000 Ming cavalry!

Sakhalian sent someone to tell Huang Taiji that he would lead his cavalry to drag the Ming army reinforcements, and asked Huang Taiji to make a decision quickly!

No matter how calm Huang Taiji was, he was shocked to hear the news!

How is it possible, how can there be such a large-scale cavalry in the Ming Kingdom?

If the Ming State has such a strong strength, why not take it out early and directly cooperate with Sun Chuanting to launch an attack on the Eight Banners, why wait until now? If these Ming cavalry came half an hour late, Sun Chuanting's Liaoxi soldiers would probably no longer exist.

Could it be that this was not the Ming cavalry, but the Mongols who surrendered to the Ming State? Well, quite possibly!

"Order Sakhalian to lead his cavalry to block the Ming reinforcements! The whole army launched a fierce attack and quickly routed the Ming army! Huang Taiji ordered in a deep voice.

As long as Sakhalian can hold off the Mongols for a while, his side will be able to completely defeat Sun Chuanting's Liaoxi soldiers, and then wipe out all the damned Mongols!

Now that he has been fighting, Huang Taiji can no longer care about preserving his strength, he just wants to fight quickly!

Sakhalian has nearly 2,000 elite Eight Banners in his hands, and it is no problem to hold back the reinforcements of the Ming army for a period of time, and this time is enough for him to completely defeat Sun Chuanting.

With Huang Taiji's order, the generals Mang Gurtai, Azig, and Haoge each led their armies and launched wave after wave of fierce attacks on the Ming army.

However, at this time, all the soldiers of the Ming army also learned the news of the arrival of reinforcements, and saw the hope of defeating Jiannu, and their morale suddenly rose, and they instantly broke out with a strong fighting spirit, blocking the onslaught of the Eight Banners.

Now, the outcome of the war depends on whether the main force of the Eight Banners can quickly defeat the Ming array, or whether the Ming reinforcements can break through Sakhalian's interception and arrive in time.

Five miles northwest of the main battlefield, Sakhalian regretted that he had hesitated at the beginning and did not immediately lead the cavalry to attack directly.

In fact, when it became clear that the Ming army was coming from the opposite side, looking at the cavalry all over the mountains, Sakhalian couldn't help but feel fear in his heart. After all, there are less than 2,000 cavalry in his hands, and the cavalry of the Ming army on the opposite side is at least more than 10,000, not counting the 800 cavalry taught by Zhao Shujiao.

The Ming army far outnumbered his own cavalry, and Sakhalian was worried that once he hedged, his less than 2,000 cavalry might be overwhelmed by the other side.

So while he sent someone to report to Huang Taiji, he slowed down and sorted out the queue, intending to find the opponent's weak point before attacking.

Unexpectedly, the cavalry of the Ming army on the opposite side also stopped one after another and began to line up more than two miles away from Sakhalian's department. In Sakhalian's eyes, the cavalry of the Ming army jumped off their horses one after another, and soon formed a foot formation, while the cavalry of Zhao led the sect to guard the side.

Watching the Ming army's phalanxes quickly take shape, Sakhalian finally understood that what was in front of him was not a real cavalry, but an infantry who could ride horses.

Knowing this, he should have launched an attack without hesitation!

But it's still too late, the Ming army array has not yet been completed, and the Ming army in the rear is still coming one after another, taking advantage of the Ming army's array, he still has a chance to defeat them!

Sakhalian quickly made up his mind, ordered everyone to mount their horses, and galloped towards the Yansui army.

"Jiannu is coming, I'll take someone to block it again." Looking at the Jiannu cavalry attacking from afar, Zhao Shujiao said to Zhang Shize.

Zhang Shize's subordinates had not yet fully lined up, and the cavalry in the rear was still coming, and the formation was a little chaotic, and Zhao Shujiao planned to buy him some time.

"Mr. Zhao is a little restless, just look at it." Zhang Shize smiled, but rejected Zhao Shujiao's kindness.

Zhao Shujiao had no choice but to take his cavalry to guard the side, watching how Zhang Shize's Yansui army dealt with the Jiannu cavalry.

Then Zhao Shujiao saw that in the face of the attack of the Jiannu cavalry, these soldiers from northern Shaanxi did not panic at all, and the soldiers in front raised their firearms to aim at the Jiannu cavalry. Zhao Shujiao saw that many soldiers pulled out a long spear thorn from their waists and installed it at the mouth of the gun, and in an instant, the fire gun in their hands turned into a spear more than two meters long.

I don't know when, more than a dozen tiger squat cannons were placed in front of the Yansui army, and a puff of projectiles were shot at the rushing Jiannu cavalry, and then the Yansui gunners in the front row opened fire at the same time, shooting countless projectiles at the rushing Jiannu.

Zhao Shujiao saw that from a distance of more than 200 steps, from time to time there were Jiannu cavalry falling off their horses, the closer they were to the Yansui army array, the more Jiannu cavalry fell off their horses, and at least more than 200 Jiannu cavalry were shot by the Yansui army's guns.

Then, then Zhao Shujiao saw the Jiannu cavalry rushing into the array of the Yansui army, and secretly screamed that it was over, and he couldn't bear to look at it anymore.

No matter how elite the infantry is, once the cavalry breaks through the defense and rushes into the formation, it can only be trampled and slaughtered. Although the Yansui army was powerful, after all, the array was not complete, and it could not block the impact of the Jiannu cavalry at all.

"Ahh There was an exclamation in his ears, and there was surprise in his tone, Zhao Shujiao quickly opened his eyes and looked at it, and was stunned for a moment.

What he imagined did not happen, the Jiannu cavalry rushed into the Yansui army formation, but the result was beyond Zhao Shujiao's imagination. The countless small formations formed by the Yansui army in a hurry seemed to be thin, but they burst out with great power, and the Jiannu who rushed into the formation seemed to be stuck in the quagmire, and they couldn't be arrogant at all!

Zhao Shujiao saw that the Jiannu cavalry crashed into the small formation composed of seven or eight people, and successfully smashed the small formation to pieces, and the Yansui soldiers were knocked into the mouth spurting blood, but the Jiannu and the war horse under his crotch were also stabbed by several spears at the same time, and they couldn't live.

The clever Jiannu cavalry did not choose to collide with the small formation, but chose to pass through the gap in the small formation, but from time to time there was a sound of guns, and from time to time projectiles were shot out of the small formation, and they were quickly shot off their horses.

This small formation hastily formed by the Yansui army was actually specially designed to restrain the cavalry!

Zhao Shujiao is also a cavalry general, and he can't help but substitute himself into it, what if he leads the cavalry to rush into the Yansui army array? Then he was dismayed to find that there really wasn't much to do.

The soldiers of the Yansui Army don't know how to train it, all the soldiers are fearless in the face of the cavalry charge, all the soldiers are very skillful in cooperating with each other, and the small formations look chaotic, but they are orderly!

Zhao Shujiao suddenly remembered that the Yansui Army was not the Praetorian Guard personally trained by His Majesty! Zhao Shujiao has been thinking about how powerful the Praetorian Guards are to attack the Jiannu lair, and now he has finally seen it.

In the face of such a performance in the attack of the Jiannu cavalry, the Praetorian Guard can be called the strongest army in the Ming Dynasty!

In the formation of the Yansui army, Sakhalian galloped on his horse, and the more he ran, the more panicked he became, and in front of him one small formation after another, each of which had sharp spears stretched out, like hedgehogs, so that he didn't know where to start.

Sakhalian has a riding spear, and the length of the riding spear far exceeds the spear in the hands of the Ming army, but his cavalry only broke a small formation, pierced a Ming army, and then broke it, and then it could only be used with a saber, but the saber did not have a Ming army spear commander at all, and could not threaten the Ming army at all.

Crossing the small formations, avoiding the spears, there was finally no more small formations in front, only the horseback Ming army that came in a hurry, but before they could dismount and line up, Sakhalian laughed cruelly, dealing with these mounted infantry, there was no need to exert effort at all.

Just as Sakhalian slapped his horse and slashed at a horse riding army, he suddenly saw a dark gun aimed at him, and the fire flickered in front of him, followed by a crisp sound, Sakhalian felt a pain in his chest, and the strength of his body disappeared at once, and then he felt that the ground was getting closer and closer to him.

In Zhao Shujiao's eyes, the Jiannu cavalry rushed into the huge array of the Yansui army one after another, and then the sound of fighting and fire guns rang non-stop, and a moment later, finally the Jiannu cavalry came out through the formation and left the Yansui army array. Zhao Shujiao was shocked to find that there were only four or five hundred Jiannu cavalry who came out of the formation, and nearly two thousand cavalry, most of them fell into the formation!

This, this is too scary!

"Chief soldier, do you want to chase or not?" A subordinate asked.

Zhao Shujiao suddenly woke up: "Chase, why don't you chase!" ”

There are only four or five hundred of the nearly two thousand Jiannu cavalry left, and they are twice as many as them, so they naturally have to beat the water dogs at this time!

"His grandmother's, the loss is big!" Zhang Shize scolded and scolded, quite a little like crying without tears.

Within a few days, his army was attacked by two cavalry raids in succession, and although both were victorious, the losses were very large.

Just like this time, although more than 1,000 Jiannu cavalry were left, the number of Janissaries killed in battle definitely exceeded that of Jiannu cavalry, and a rough estimate of casualties would probably exceed 2,000.

The Eight Banners were the most elite troops of this era, and they were directly rushed into the array, and the casualties were relatively small. If it weren't for the well-trained Praetorian Guards, if they were replaced by other Ming troops, the moment they were rushed into the array by the cavalry, they would have collapsed a long time ago.

"Leave a thousand people to treat the infantry and clean up the battlefield, and the others quickly organize the array and follow me to the main battlefield!" Zhang Shize raised his voice and ordered.

Defeated the attacking Jiannu cavalry and arrived at the battlefield in time, this battle should be over!
