(If you don't know the intention and arrangement of sending troops to Mobei, please go back and read chapters 957 and 958.) The first is to solve inflation, and the second is to clear Mobei and Lake Baikal. )

Zot Babatur's knowledge of the Datong Army came from the Khalkha Mongols who he annexed.

He knew that the infantry of the Datong Army could form a chariot formation, supplemented by muskets and artillery. In the face of such a formation, no matter how brave the Mongolian cavalry was, even if they sacrificed their lives, they could not rush in.

That's why Drot Babatur had to go around in circles, stretch out the supply lines of the same army, and cut off the grain route around the main force. The main force had to go to the grain road, and the small troops could not be effective, and the few squads he sent were all eaten by the Datong army.

Once the grain route is cut off and it is known that its main force is heading south, the cavalry of the Datong army will inevitably abandon the infantry and kill quickly.

Without the cover of the infantry vehicle array, the cavalry of the Datong Army, Zhuot Babatur did not feel very powerful. In his opinion, the Han people were fierce in formation and firearms, and the Mongol warriors were the most powerful in cavalry combat.

As for what to charge in a cavalry wall, this kind of hellish remark was taken as a joke by Zot Babatur.

It must have been the Khalkha Mongols for a long time, and they were frightened by the Datong army, so they felt that the Han cavalry was overwhelming, like a mobile city wall composed of countless cavalry.

Most of the most abundant grasslands in Mobei are mountainous grasslands, and some are simply in the mountains.

The current battlefield is hilly.

Further south are the mountains, a tributary of the Selenga River, which runs between the two mountains. It was specially chosen by Drot Babatur to ambush the Datong cavalry, and once you entered along the river valley, it was difficult to escape.

Among the hills that extend from the mountain range, the large and small hills are not very dense with trees, but green and green grasses can be seen everywhere.

These mountain pastures can also be grazed by running horses. But as a battlefield, it will make the battle more complicated, unlike the grasslands of a flat river.

Seeing that Cao Bianjiao had stopped fleeing, Zhuot Babatur immediately divided more than 10,000 light horsemen and bypassed several hills to outflank the back road. He didn't think that he would be defeated, so the first time was to block Cao Bianjiao's retreat and eat all the Datong cavalry in front of him.

Bi Jing's Datong army sent too many troops this time, and the Mongols really couldn't afford to spend it, so they had to do everything possible to annihilate them one by one.

The Mongols in Mobei, men, women, and children combined, are only in their early 100,000s.

Before that, the Khalkha Mongols had been fighting with the Manchus. Then he suffered a crushing defeat in the face of the Datong army, and on the way to withdraw, he froze to death and starved to death. The Dzungar tribe was killed, and many of them were killed. Then he was murdered, and Dzungar was split in two.

The Dzungar tribes brought by Zhuot Babatur, plus the annexed Khalkha tribes, could only make up 50,000 cavalry.

A few days ago, he was killed by Fei Ruhe and Zhang Tieniu for several thousand!

It is difficult for Drot Babatur to turn the tables, so he can only fight an ambush and annihilation war. Once he sees that the situation is not good, he will run immediately, anyway, it will drag on until winter around the bend, and the Datong army will naturally withdraw.

"The 1st Regiment of the Xiao Cavalry, responsible for dealing with the enemy behind you."

Cao Bianjiao ordered.

The order flag was raised, and Zhang Ticket, with more than 1,000 riders, turned around and faced the side rear.

The cavalry division commanded by Zhuoteba was adapted from Li Zicheng's Hetao cavalry. ―Semi-officer, from the Minor Army; The other is a semi-officer, promoted from Li Zicheng's old unit.

Li Zicheng's righteous son, Zhang Boil, is in the army at the moment.

I went to Nanjing to study a crash course at the military academy for two years, and returned to Atau to directly serve as the regiment commander. That was to appease Li Zicheng's old department, because before the reorganization, almost all the low-level officers were small comrades, and if the old department of King Chuang was not full, promoting Zhang Xun could stabilize the morale of the army.

"The Seventh Regiment of the Xiao Cavalry, lined up on the right side of the Yi Cavalry!"

Zoteba issued another military order.

On the front were eight regiments of resolute cavalry, which could not organize a wall charge.

On the left is the river.

On the right is a regiment of cavalry.

Zoteba led hundreds of cavalry as a reserve for the Chinese army.

On the frontal battlefield, the two sides are slowly approaching.

The Mongols still used traditional warfare, and Chang Yanda Cao Bianjiao sent thousands of horsemen to shoot arrows from the front and right sides.

"Blow the trumpet, the resolute cavalry charge! The 7th Regiment of the Xiao Cavalry, accelerated its retreat and helped the Yi cavalry drive away the enemy cavalry who were shooting arrows. "

Zhuoteba is the one who has been exchanging tests with the Mongols for a long time, and I have more troops, so I must take it in one go.

The Mongol cavalry that was sent out to test was still within range, and there were 4,000 young cavalry, all of whom were arranged in a disorderly manner and retreated. Moreover, the speed is getting slower and slower, and I only run fast when I finish it, and I rush up in a few moments.

Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Bianjiao have thousands of external mirrors, although they can see the details clearly, but the momentum of this row of mountains and seas still makes me not a little frightened.

At the same time, the 7th Regiment of the Xiao Cavalry rushed more slowly.

The commander of the army is called Batur, a graduate of the seventh phase of the Nanjing Military Academy.

Among the graduates of military academies, there are less than a dozen who are regiment commanders, and no more than eight are brigade commanders. That is also where Zhao Han's confidence lies in starting the reform of the military system, because he is afraid that the founding lords will interfere with the army, because in addition to low-level officers, there are not a small number of middle and high-level officers who have graduated from military academies.

Those people have all received the education of loyalty to the monarch and love the people, and they are not the private soldiers of any general.

Batur followed more than a thousand cavalry, accelerated around the Yi cavalry, and rushed towards the enemy cavalry shooting arrows in the rear. While charging and firing at the same time, there were no casualties on both sides, but the Xiao cavalry was fully armored, which was comparable to the Mongolian cavalry wearing leather armor.

Before the round of shooting, seeing that Batur was still rushing back, the Mongol cavalry on the opposite side consciously advanced, went back a certain distance and then turned back to shoot arrows.

By the time the seventh round of arrows from the enemy army was fired, Batur had not yet raised his spear and pointed to the right. The trumpeter next to him immediately blew the trumpet, and more than a thousand cavalry brushed around to the right and rushed towards the Mongolian cavalry on this side.

The Xiao cavalry gave way to the frontal battlefield, and the Yi cavalry in front of them picked up speed again and rushed towards the Mongol cavalry that was leading.

The momentum of this row of mountains and seas was so shocked that the Mongol cavalry forgot to shoot arrows, and calmly moved away to chase Batur's troops.

"Block, slow block!"

Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Changjiao shouted.

The main formation of the Mongol cavalry, thousands of cavalry pressed down. The small 8,000 young cavalry were equipped with iron armor, and the rest of the cavalry were all leather armor, and the Jungger Department was obviously still very poor at this time.

The 8,000 ironclad Mongol horsemen were not half commanded by Abalai.

For many years, this person followed Gushi Khan on expeditions to Qinghai and Tibet. Historically, the Russian envoy Bayikov retired to Beijing, not because I was responsible for escorting him, but also by Emperor Shunzhi.

Abalai followed his ironclad spirit and rushed backwards, feeling right when he was a little far away.

The cavalry wall of the Xiaotong Army is arranged in a disorderly manner, and if I rush back, I will have a car accident 100%. There is no chance of being spared, this cavalry wall is too dense to even have room to dodge.

Abalai is a fool, and the battle to the death, I am likely to take it.

Regardless of what I wanted, Abalai ran to the right with his troops. I plan to avoid the wall charge, wait for the Xiaotong cavalry to rush over, and then attack from the back, and flank the Chinese army of Chang Yanda and Cao Changjiao.

It was Abalai who thought so, and the Mongolian nobles were all flashing to the right, and everyone was willing to collide with a group of madmen who were deadly.

As soon as we let go, Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Changjiao's Chinese army faced the charge.

Chang Yanda Cao Changjiao's eyes widened, and it was good to know for a while. Before I could give the order, my two sons led the team to hide, and the rest of the generals also dispersed with their troops.

The wall charge of the Yi cavalry was more exquisite than that of the later.

The cavalry battalion at the innermost end of the platoon scattered little by little in the charge, and then those who approached this battalion followed. When he was young, he didn't have half of the cavalry, and he changed from a wall charge to a traditional charge. The scattered cavalry slaughtered the enemy cavalry who calmly dodged, and killed more than 2,000 enemy cavalry by blocking the waist.

Chang Yanda Cao Bianjiao is also on the run, and he is separated from his two sons, and there are only 1,000 troops left with me.

The Mongolian cavalry on the side gradually felt that it was right, and in a blink of an eye, the commander ran away. Either we are from the Khalkha Mongols, or we are not from the old department of the hateful people, and we have no loyalty to Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Bianjiao. Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Bianjiao have all escaped, are we still a fart?

Squad after team of Mongol cavalry fled the battlefield, and Batur led a regiment to pursue and kill frantically.

As the main general, when he saw that the enemy army was scattered, he immediately put his troops in reserve, turned around and killed in front, and I wanted to help Kan Zhang Cook meet the enemy cavalry in front of him.

Chang Yan led more than 1,000 cavalry to shoot arrows at the more than 10,000 cavalry who surrounded him under the grassy hills. Before shooting an arrow, immediately swoop up from the hill and leave the battlefield to go to the seventh hill.

The enemy Zhang Cook faced was obviously planning to fight hard, but wanted to wait for the victory and defeat on the frontal battlefield.

To put it bluntly, the hearts of the enemy soldiers are united.

It's the Khalkha Department again, it's the Dzungar Ministry, and the old Ministry, which has not yet been added to the Dzungar Ministry. We don't have a deep hatred for each other, only because Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Changjiao have divided the grassland in a small way, and those chaotic forces have been glutinously combined.

If anyone loses a small number of troops, even if this battle is won, our pastures may be swallowed up.

This preserves the strength, 10,000 people besieged and killed more than 1,000 small troops, and they actually fought quickly and leisurely until they were completely surrounded.

The two sides are gradually approaching the main battlefield, and the Chinese army of Zhang Yuankuan and Cao Bianjiao has not yet collapsed. Seeing this, the 10,000 young Mongolian cavalry said that they would turn around and flee, and Zhang and Zhuo Teba, who rushed over, chased and killed at full speed.

Fleeing and fleeing, suddenly no Mongolian nobleman remembered anything, drew his sword: shouted: "You have contacted the right villain, and you can do the protection by taking refuge in the Celestial Empire." Kill as you please! "

It was a Khalkha army, led by the Mongol nobles, and struck at the "friendly army" that was fleeing in the distance. We have no blood feud with the Dzungar tribe, and we have turned against each other to fight, not only to avenge our people, but also to gain the appreciation of the Celestial Empire.

There was not a single hateful old unit, and they also turned to attack and kill friendly troops.

Very slowly, these 10,000 young Mongolian cavalry will fight together by themselves, and it is completely ambiguous who wants to defect to the Celestial Empire.

Anyway, if you win, you are not eligible to work.

After that, let go of revenge, we have long seen that each other is full.

"That's... Who are you going to help? "

Zhang Yu looked at the chaotic battlefield and was not a little confused.

Zhuoteba smiled bitterly: "Let's fight, you also know who to help, if we go to chase and kill the defeated soldiers head-on."

Zhuoteba took Zhang Cook and turned around and went to the frontal battlefield to chase and kill.

Only ran out of a few places, and there were no ordinary Mongolian cavalry, and they got on their horses and knelt in the rear en masse. There is no seventy-year-old Mongolian young man, holding Zhang Yuankuan's head and Cao Changjiao for a long time, and said: "Chang Yanda, the rebel general of the Celestial Empire, Chang Yanda, has not been killed by you yet!"

Chang Yanda was very happy, personally helped this person up, and then asked about his identity, and instantly said that he had spoken out.

The one who killed Zhang Yuankuan Chang Yanda was Zhang Yuankuan Chang Yanda's own son!
