Chapter 146: Gathering is a fire, scattering is a sky full of stars!

Afternoon.

Just when Zhu Zhanji led his 5,000 soldiers to continue to move forward.

In the extreme distance of them, it was too far to see anything, and there was no movement, and the only thing they could see was the bursts of dust.

Just when Zhu Zhanji was still riding his horse and whipping, that Zhou Quan hurriedly caught up with Zhu Zhanji at this time, and shouted loudly among the thousands of cavalry: "Your Highness! There's an enemy ahead! ”

In the chaotic voice around him, Zhu Zhanji still heard Zhou Quan's voice, and looked at it from a distance in the direction Zhou Quan pointed.

When he saw the dusty sky in the distance, and the black pressure was approaching rapidly, Zhu Zhanji's heart suddenly tightened.

Here it comes!

At this time, Zhu Zhanji's expression was slightly excited, but he didn't know if it was because of the appearance of the enemy and he was nervous, or because the appearance of the enemy made him feel excited.

One hand galloped on his horse, and the other hand was on the hilt of the long sword at his waist.

After thinking for a few seconds, Zhu Zhanji immediately shouted to Zhou Quan beside him: "Turn around and lead the army to run in the northeast direction!" ”

Regarding Zhu Zhanji's order, Zhou Quan naturally did not dare to have the slightest disobedience, especially at this tense moment.

"Yes!"

Zhou Quan also shouted, and then gradually increased his speed and rushed towards the vanguard army in front.

In the process of galloping, the cavalry wanted to convey the order by relying on the standard-bearer of the vanguard in front.

On the battlefield, the generals and the army who relied on the roar of these simple military orders to convey military orders were already dead.

Especially in today's situation, turning the direction only requires the team and the flag bearer in front of you to change the direction, and the soldiers behind will catch up as soon as possible.

There is no need to say anything more at all.

At the same time, with the change of direction of the Ming army, the distant Wara cavalry army also seemed to have discovered their movements.

They shouted at the leader of the Warat, Gulos Tuhuan, "The Ming army has run away!" ”

Hearing this, instead of feeling troubled by the Ming army's escape, Tuo Huan was overjoyed.

If they run, it means that they are afraid.

Doesn't this mean that the other party is not strong enough and is afraid of running away?

On the contrary, if the Ming army really rushed over in a daze, he really wouldn't dare to have a head-on fight with the enemy in this situation without any room for maneuver.

The more the Ming army runs, the more excited he becomes!

"Herald! Assault of the whole army! ”

"Yes!"

As the order of Nalus Tuohuan was transmitted to the entire army, all the Varat cavalry seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood and saw fat, and let the wildness in their hearts begin to unleash unscrupulously.

Like a pack of wolves, under the leadership of Na Rose Tuohuan, they charged towards the Ming army.

The Ming army on the other side, compared with these Wara cavalry armies, is less wild, but more slaughtering.

All the soldiers were wearing armor, with long swords straddling their waists, looking at the military flag in front of the army, although they were fleeing, they did not panic at all.

Compared to the Warats, they weren't wolves.

It is a living person, a warrior who bears the battlefield to defend his family and country.

In their hearts, there is conviction.

Accompanied by two armies chasing and fleeing on this grassland.

Time is passing little by little, too.

However, for some reason, both armies maintain an eerie balance.

One chases, the other flees.

But they all tacitly maintain a relative gap.

While the armies of the two sides galloped on horseback, there was no fighting.

It's as if some kind of opera is being performed on the big stage of the grassland.

In the Ming army, Zhu Zhanji, who was in the forefront of the army, naturally discovered this situation.

And Zhou Quan, who was beside him, also discovered this situation.

"Your Highness! The Navarats, it seems, are deliberately avoiding the battle! ”

Zhou Quan shouted loudly.

Zhu Zhanji listened to his words and didn't say anything, but after pondering for a moment, he shouted to Na Zhouquan: "Order the front army to lower the speed!" ”

"Yes!"

In less than a moment after Zhou Quan left, the speed of the entire Ming army was constantly decreasing when the front army was slowing down.

On the other side, among the Warat army, Rose Tuohuan also seemed to feel the slowdown of the Ming army, and was wondering what the hell the Ming army was doing, wondering if all this was really a plan set up by the Ming army, when a Warat soldier immediately rode to his side and shouted to him: "Leader! The Ming army is throwing supplies and baggage! ”

Hearing this man's shout, Naroth Tuohuan hurriedly looked ahead.

Really!

Everywhere the Ming army passed, large and small packages and bags were thrown all over the ground.

It wasn't too late to take a closer look at what's in it, but it was pretty much the same as the soldier had said.

No anti-theft

Seeing this scene, even if he no longer hesitated, the fighter plane was fleeting, and he immediately shouted: "Rush and kill with all your might!" ”

As soon as the shouts fell, the Warat soldiers, who were at the forefront of the army, immediately slapped the horseback with their scimitars in their hands.

"Kill!"

In an instant, the shouts of killing continued to echo in the army composed of tens of thousands of soldiers.

The speed of the entire army also increased to the highest level in an instant.

And in the Ming army, feeling the Warat soldiers behind him who were constantly shortening the distance, Zhu Zhanji's eyes narrowed slightly, and when the distance between the two sides was shortened to the limit, Zhu Zhanji suddenly shouted to the standard-bearer not far away: "Follow me!" ”

After speaking, he single-handedly rushed to the forefront of the army, and then took everyone to turn a very large arc in an instant.

At the same time, he shouted to everyone around him: "Pass the order, prepare the musket!" ”

"Yes!"

According to Zhu Zhanji's military order, the entire 5,000-strong cavalry army began to echo Zhu Zhanji's military order.

Put the knife into its sheath, and instead take out the musket and reload it.

In less than a minute, the 5,000 men of the entire Ming army made a 360-degree turn, and from being pursued, they began to rush head-on towards the Nawarat army.

On the other side, Rose Tuohuan also seemed to see the movement of the Ming army, but he was not surprised.

The distance between the two sides is constantly shortening, and if the Ming army's army blindly flees, the result can only be constantly eroded.

Therefore, knowing that he can't escape, he may be able to maintain some of his strength by turning around and charging.

Even if he is Ross Dehuan, in the face of such a situation, he will make such a choice.

In the face of the choice of the Ming army, Rose Tuohuan did not change at all, and still shouted loudly: "Rush and kill!" ”

Compared with those Warat soldiers who seemed to have seen fat, the Ming army on the other side was under the leadership of Zhu Zhanji, and was waiting for it.

Seeing that the distance from the Navarat army was getting closer and closer, Zhu Zhanji finally issued an order at this time, saying, "Throwing battalion, prepare!" ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's shout, a team of more than 100 people in the army immediately rushed to the front of the army.

In their hands, each of them carried a bag of explosives tied with a rope.

At the moment when the two armies were about to make contact, Zhu Zhanji shouted loudly: "Throw! ”

With Zhu Zhanji's voice ringing, twenty or thirty soldiers in the throwing battalion of more than 100 people began to ignite the explosives bag in their hands, then slammed up and down in their hands to accumulate power, and finally threw the explosives bag in their hands to the position that the two armies were about to touch in an instant within the time period when the explosive bag exploded.

Peng!

As the first explosive packs rang out, a succession of explosives packets began to ring out in the ranks of the enemy troops.

Peng! Peng! Peng!

........

This succession, continuous explosions, instantly rushed between the two armies, and it seemed that in the blink of an eye, the front line of the Warat people who could enter the Ming army blew up a person on their backs.

Along with the fall of dozens of people and dozens of horsemen in the front, the cavalry in the rear also tripped over it.

The vanguard of the entire Warat cavalry army was in chaos in an instant.

The speed of the entire army is also stagnant.

At the same time, under the personal leadership of Zhu Zhanji, the entire army seemed to pass by the cavalry army composed of Navala's soldiers.

Leaving only the left side of the army in front of the Warats, he galloped to the right.

However, Zhu Zhanji has to do more than just throw dozens of explosive bags.

The cavalry on the left side of the entire Ming army had already put the muskets prepared in advance in their hands, and in the process of continuous galloping, they began to shoot wildly at the dense Warat army.

In the face of such a dense Warat army, the soldiers did not need to aim at all, they only needed to point their guns at the direction and position of the Varat soldiers, and the preparation was very different, and basically there would not be too many misses.

In less than ten minutes, the entire Ming army passed by the army of the Navara soldiers, but in the process, in the face of the fire of thousands of muskets of the Ming army, hundreds of Warats either died under the muskets of the Ming army, or were shot on the horse, and died under the trampling of the horses' hooves of their own people.

And when the former army led by Zhu Zhanji passed by the army of Navara, the Rose Tuhuan, who was in the Warat army, immediately noticed that Zhu Zhanji in the Ming army had armor different from ordinary soldiers.

After all, Zhu Zhanji is in the first column of the army, and his goal is still very clear.

And Zhu Zhanji was also keenly aware of the Ross Dehuan in the Navarat army.

Although the two of them only looked at each other for a moment, they both observed each other.

It's just that compared to the desert in Zhu Zhanji's eyes, the eyes of Rose Dehuan are full of murderous intent!

Zhu Zhanji!

As the chief general of this army, Zhu Zhanji is too young!

The main general who can be sent to such a critical battlefield, how can he be such a young man who has not grown all his hair?

Thinking about it, Zhu Zhanji, the imperial grandson of the Ming Dynasty, felt that there was only Zhu Zhanji, the imperial grandson of the Ming Dynasty.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that as the imperial grandson of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zhanji would dare to come to such a battlefield in person.

"Put the bald! The chief general of the Ming army in the past in the Ming army just now, but the imperial grandson of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Zhanji!? ”

With hatred and conjecture in his heart, Rose Tuohuan immediately asked a lieutenant general beside him who had seen Zhu Zhanji.

The man wanted to speak just now, but after hearing the question of his own leader, he immediately replied: "It's him!" I won't forget it! ”

Hearing this, Rose Tuohuan confirmed the conjecture in his heart.

After understanding that the main general of the Ming army at this time was his murderer and son-killer enemy Zhu Zhanji, the grandson of the Ming Dynasty, the idea of revenge in the heart of Rose Tuohuan suddenly began to rise like a prairie fire.

"Chase! Chase the whole army! Zhu Zhanji must not be allowed to escape from the grassland! ”

"Everyone, disperse the pursuit!"

Grace Tuohuan also seemed to understand that an attacking camp like theirs with a large army formation could not pose much threat to the Ming army, which greatly limited the speed of their cavalry, and when their own number far exceeded that of the other party, this kind of scattered pursuit method was what they were best at.

Just like a pack of wolves, a cavalry team of more than 100 people dragged the Ming army, and then the wolves pounced.

However, in the face of the changes in the Warat army, Zhu Zhanji did not panic in the slightest.

He knew very well that the biggest reliance of their Ming army now was muskets and speed.

Because all the materials that affect the speed have been discarded before, the speed of your own cavalry can be increased a lot.

But after all, they came from afar, and they belonged to the people who were sleepy and lacking horses, and the cavalry facing the Navarat people did not have any advantage in speed, at most they were on a level with the other party, and they could not maintain it for too long.

And the most important feature of their army is that they surround the enemy army in a guerrilla way, and kill and consume the enemy army with long-range shooting.

If there is no speed, then it is all over.

After all, muskets take time to reload, and if they are entangled in the forces of the Navarats, or even rush into the middle of the battle and fight at close range, they will only be completely defeated.

However, the Warats underestimated the thousands of muskets in their hands.

A squad of several hundred people can withstand several rounds of their volleys.

However, it is not difficult to defeat those small groups of cavalry, the difficulty is how not to be delayed by them, causing the entire Ming army to be caught up and disrupted by the camp.

But these things were all expected before, and in the process of traveling along the way, Zhu Zhanji had repeatedly discussed with that Zhou Quan how to deal with the Warat cavalry.

After all, at that time, the enemy was overt and we were in the dark, and it was very clear how many people there were, what the situation, and what kind of combat methods there were.

It's not too difficult to negotiate a reasonable solution based on your own abilities.

And the best thing they can do is to break it up!

Like the cavalry armies of the Navarats, the true power of the muskets in the hands of their Ming army could only be displayed when they were dispersed.

It's like the light cavalry of Kublai Khan, the ancestor of their Warats.

Through mobility and long-range killing ability, entangle and pull with enemy forces on the vast grassland battlefield.

The enemy can't touch them, but they can keep fighting the enemy.

After dispersing, with the strength of the Ming army, as long as each person killed four Warats at a long distance, then they basically had zero casualties in this battle.

In the case of a musket with long-range aimed shooting, it is by no means difficult to kill four by one person.

As long as they can stabilize their mentality and not panic and fear, they will win this battle!

And after seeing the change in the tactics of the Nawarat people, Zhu Zhanji shouted at Na Zhouquan in a loud voice: "Change the formation!" ”

Hearing Zhu Zhanji's shout, Zhou Quan seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time, and immediately shouted to the soldiers beside him: "Blow!" ”

Moment.

Bursts of horns began to sound in the sky above the entire Ming army.

At the same time, the standard-bearer who was at the forefront of the Ming army also began to shake the big flag in his hand.

The hundreds of households of the Ming army in the rear, after seeing the movement in front, immediately understood the mind of the grandson Zhu Zhanji.

Immediately, he shouted to the subordinates around him, "Follow me!" ”

In an instant, the army, which originally seemed to be united like a steel spear, was like an arm under the command of the main general, but at this moment, it was like birds and beasts scattered.

At the beginning, under the command of the hundred households of the Ming army, a cavalry team composed of 100 people was formed, and they began to flee separately in all directions.
