At this moment, a mound in the distance was watching this scene in shock.

"This is the militia?"

He said in amazement.

Condescendingly, he can overlook almost half of the battlefield, in this mountain flat land that is not actually a real plain, more than a dozen such car cities are scattered, but the distance between them will not exceed a hundred zhang, and they are all as high as possible, especially the kind of position protected by ravines next to it. All the Che Castles were constantly spewing flames, rumbling cannons were like thunder, shouts of killing resounded through the sky, and the surrounding smoke was filled with gunpowder, making the whole battlefield look a little unreal, and in this smoke of gunpowder, his subordinate Mughal cavalry was galloping between these Che Castles in an orderly manner.

There is really no order.

Because of the cutting of these car cities, the 20,000 cavalry who originally came in a surging force had to squeeze into such a not wide passage between the car cities.

Then they kept falling under the fire of the guns on both sides.

They do shoot arrows, too.

But the latter's parapets, shields, and armor made most of the arrows meaningless, after all, the cavalry's bows were already weak, and because of the flanking of those three-eyed guns and crossbows, these cavalrymen did not dare to get too close......

People are crossbows.

The accuracy itself is one notch higher.

When they got close to within ten feet, they were almost targeted by these militiamen, and their horses were afraid of the firearms, and instinctively did not dare to approach these loud and fire-breathing things. The Mughal cavalry, fearing death, could only shrink as far as possible to twenty zhang away, and then kept shooting arrows wildly, and they did not even dare to stop aiming, because they might face the shotgun at any time. But the arrows shot in this way are really useless in the car city, not to mention the pitiful low hit rate, even if it hits, such an arrow may be blocked by a piece of leather armor, not to mention that these militiamen have actually begun to wear cotton armor.

The important crop of these militia reclamation teams in Xuanhua is cotton, and Wang Yue also supports them in planting cotton, because of the development of the cotton spinning industry, the price of cotton is very high in various places.

After all, there was very little cotton cultivation before the Great Song Dynasty.

Cotton has indeed been introduced for a long time.

But the introduction and popularization are not the same, these years it is by relying on Wang Yue's promotion that cotton has really begun to popularize, and hand-cranked spinning machines and looms have made cotton scarce again. The yield of these lands in Xuanhua is not high, because there is no winter wheat because of climate problems, and one season can be planted every year, on the contrary, Hebei is forced to grow grain because of the militia, coupled with the impact of coastal fisheries, grain prices have always been very low.

Of course, cotton is grown!

Sell to the textile factory in Yanshan, and then buy cheap grain and canned food.

For these militiamen who need to bring their own armor and weapons, cotton in their own fields is undoubtedly the cheapest source of armor.

They were all cotton armor.

Stray arrows are really useless to them.

But the militia's big guns, three-eyed guns, bows and crossbows against the Mughal cavalry, that is different, the chain armor on the latter's body is not much, there are really not many that can block these, although these Muguls obtained a large amount of iron armor from the Jurchens, but the Jurchens could not really give them good, and what they could give them could only be the lowest.

This one can't stop the infantry bows, crossbows, and three-eyed guns.

As for the big gun's shotgun, the armor-piercing ability is indeed tragic, but it is still very easy to kill and injure the war horse, and the big gun actually has a large shotgun, and the armor-piercing ability is completely different, that is, it can't be loaded too much at one time.

These Mughal cavalrymen, who were running in vain between the car cities, kept throwing dead bodies all the way in the madness.

This is the one that sees the breakthrough.

And so it turned out.

O woman!

Hebula can be seen very clearly here.

The woman was like a demon magic, constantly throwing out things he couldn't see, and then turned into explosions and flames in the middle of the cavalry, making a thunderous sound, frightening the war horses that had accompanied the cavalry since childhood, ignoring the control of their masters, and neighed in horror and turned around and fled.

This is the militia?

His 20,000 cavalry was helpless with 20,000 militiamen?

"Da Khan, they have no water, they will be over after three days of sleepiness, as long as we continue to harass like this, so that they will never be able to come out to fetch water, in the end it is still in our pocket, there is no need to attack, just don't let them be idle."

Wang Yue said beside him like a dog-headed military advisor.

"I'm afraid of the Song army behind, there are 10,000 people in my Ba Boy, and they may not be able to withstand Yang Zongmin and Zhe Keqiu joining forces."

Hebul said with a frown.

Pity him, until now, he has never doubted the person next to him.

On the contrary, there is more trust.

After all, what Wang Yue reported is true, but the combat effectiveness of these militias is unexpected, but this obviously has nothing to do with Wang Yue, Hebule still appreciates this Han man who can speak the Mughal language and is clever and capable, and even prepares to make him an official, and marry his granddaughter to him in the future.

However, the current situation does make him have some concerns, although he should not have to worry about the Chang Shengjun in the south, but Yang Zongmin in the back, even Guo Qizhong, will not sit idly by!

He did leave behind to block the attack.

But he only took 10,000 men with him from his brother.

Foldable and Yang Zongmin is not weak.

And there is also a Guo Qizhong in the back, this guy is also very capable of fighting.

So it can't be delayed here for too long.

"Great Khan, in fact, the little one thinks that these people will not save Wang Yue."

Wang Yueshen said mysteriously.

"What do you mean?"

Hebul said.

"That Wang Yue is said to be regarded as a traitor by the officials of the Southern Dynasty, and he wishes he would die quickly, but he has Chang Shengjun and Yanshan in his hands, as well as Khitan, Xi, and Ming people as helpers, and those in the Southern Dynasty just can't beat him so they have to listen to him. If Sticky Han really hits Yuguan, then these people may be able to watch the excitement and kill him with the knife of Sticky Han, if we destroy these militias, we can also go south, then these people will like it more. ”

Wang Yue said.

"You Han people, you are all so fond of infighting!"

Hebul said disdainfully.

Wang Yue smiled.

Obviously, the Great Khan didn't know, and it really depended on his descendants to talk about infighting! When it comes to stabbing each other in a plate of loose sand, and bleeding within the family, who can compare to his descendants!

Hebul continued to look at the battlefield in front of him.

Wang Yue is right, if he continues like this, he will be the victor after all, because the water source in this area is the Sanggan River next to it, but these militiamen can only form a formation in this way to protect themselves, once they disperse, they will be trampled by the Mughal warriors, and it is impossible to come out to fetch water, even if they carry a water bottle, at most it will last for two or three days.

In the end, it will be destroyed by thirst.

"You, go and tell Kutula that the various troops are attacking in turn, but don't attack again, just prevent them from coming out to get water."

Hebul said.

"The little one understands!"

Wang Yue said.

Then he did not hesitate to urge the horse away.

Hebul continued to stand there, suddenly like the great-grandson in some propaganda posters, silently looking at the battlefield in front of him. He didn't know that at the same time, in the valley west of Longmen Pass, east of Xuanhua, Shi Xiong was leading his cavalry army to begin to advance, and 15,000 cavalry, including 3,000 mounted cavalry, would sweep the battlefield from Xuanhua south. And to the east of this battlefield, outside the city of Ruzhou in the upper reaches of the Yanchuan River, the 10,000 Xi cavalry personally led by Xiao Gan, the emperor of the Great Xi State, have also completed the final supply here, and are ready to run for hundreds of miles to complete the siege in the next hundred miles. Also on the west side of the battlefield, behind Hebule, an infantry corps fifty miles away was walking out of Tianjin Pass and heading straight for the city of Alum Mountain behind him.

The three-way army is completing the encirclement.

Even if they were begging, Yang Zongmin and Guo Qizhong had already received an order, and the two of them would attack the whole army and attack the Baba children who were left to defend against them.

As for Guo Qizhong......

He's not going to go to war here.

He was responsible for waiting in Baishuiluo, and then dealt a fatal blow to the White Tatars, who had fled back to the north of Yinshan.

It doesn't matter if the Muguls flee back, and in fact, it is difficult to achieve total annihilation, but after this battle, the Muguls estimate that they will no longer have the courage to go south, and in a few years, he will go north to plough the court. But this time the White Tartar must be killed, and Guo Qizhong's favorite is to destroy the White Tartar, after the fall of Xiao Hulu, the White Tartar is already the main enemy he needs to face.

He will wait in Whitewater.

And the chief director of all this looked at the militiamen in the bloody battle with emotion.

Eighteen militia battalions, twenty-eight thousand militiamen and women, who fended off twenty-three thousand nomadic horsemen in eighteen chariot cities, relied on their chariots and weapons in their hands, and let the corpses of the latter spread over the fields of early spring among them.

No one retreated.

No one fled.

Both men and women silently shot at the enemy outside amid the sharp arrows that rained down from the sky.

The militiamen did not know the plan.

In fact, except for the high-level officials, basically no one below knew about this plan, and of course these militiamen didn't know, they just thought that Mu Han had really come to Yuguan, and they needed to return to the pass to prepare to face the Jurchens. But they knew that this trip would inevitably be attacked by the Muguls, so the old and weak women and children took the mountain road through the territory of the Xi people, and the young and strong and some women with the ability to fight took the main road south to Juyongguan with supplies.

And now they were really attacked by the Mugul.

And it's a big offense.

They don't know what the outcome will be.

But they still chose to fight to the end.

And these militiamen, also showed strong combat effectiveness, at this moment they are no worse than the guards in Zhu Yuanzhang's era, a super-long spear, a chariot, together with those rudimentary primary firearms, coupled with tenacious will, so that these original peasants, the nomadic cavalry is helpless.

That's enough.

After all, he really made this nation show their proper demeanor.
