Not many people in the Mongolian army were injured by the stones, because the mountain was detonated in advance. When the cliff above the rear team of the Mongolian army was detonated, the Mongolian scouts who were walking in the front were about to walk out of the section of the widow's cliff, which made the detonators of the Thunderbolt army mistakenly think that the Mongolian army brigade had arrived, and in a hurry they lit the fuse. Although the mountain collapsed as scheduled and the mountain road was blocked, it only covered the group of Mongolian scouts, and the front team of the Mongolian army was still a mile away at this time, and it was not affected much. Of course, the two explosions before and after also caused a lot of stones to fall on the loose mountain of the Widow's Cliff, hitting many Mongolian soldiers and horses.

After recovering from the panic, the Mongol army began to attack the Perak army. The amount of rockfall produced by the blasting of the mountain is very large, and it is impossible to clear the passage in a short period of time, and the only way to escape is to climb over the rubble pile blocking the road. However, even if none of the Mongol troops were killed, it would be very difficult to capture this pile of rocks. The Mongolian army, which had lost the advantage of horses, was not terrible, not to mention the narrow mountain roads and narrow attack surfaces, which could only accommodate a few people. The dense rocks on the mountain road are uneven, and it is not easy to stand firm, and it is even more difficult to attack on the back. As for the Mongolian army's bow and arrow expertise, it can't be brought into play on the crooked mountain roads with a short field of vision, and it is not easy to shoot the Thunderbolt army hiding in the rocks. What's more, the Thunderbolts' muskets and grenades are not vegetarian, and condescending counterattacks will only be sharper.

The Mongol cavalry was invincible, but it was only in the plains. Dismount and fight on foot, but they are weak chickens, and at this moment they don't look like fighting, but sending people to their heads in waves. Before the Mongol army with swords and shields had reached the top of the stone pile, they rolled down to the bottom of the rocky slope with muskets, grenades and short spears. As soon as the Mongols in the rear bent their bows and arrows, they would be met with muskets in response, and the arrows they fired, although strong, were either blocked by wooden shields or bounced off by rocks, and only rarely hit. The wounded Thunderbolt soldiers were immediately carried to the rear, and their defensive positions were quickly replaced. Because of the narrow offensive and defensive surface, the Mongolian army could only adopt the tactics of adding fuel, and the Thunderbolt army could also send about ten people to defend on the front line, so Huang Dagen divided the personnel into several groups and took turns to rest to ensure physical strength, and he himself took advantage of the gap to sleep for a short sleep.

The same was true of the Mongol army's front team, except that their opponent was not the Thunderbolt army, but the native soldiers of the two states of Weimao. Huang Dagen swore before the war that he would win this battle, and Weimao, whether it was an officer or a soldier, was skeptical, and many people were ready to smear oil on the soles of their feet. But as soon as the explosions sounded before and after, and after witnessing the scene of the landslide, they knew that Huang Dagen was not bragging, and they had confidence and courage in an instant. These native soldiers were born mountain warriors, running and walking on the rocks as if they were walking on the ground. They thought the guards platoon soldiers were clumsy, so they asked for grenades to stand at the front. In the face of the constantly rushing Mongol troops, they used shields to block and stabbed with spears, driving the Mongol troops back, rarely using grenades. Because the lethality of the grenade is too great, the Mongolian soldiers who were bombed were either killed or injured, and most of the injured would also be disabled, so it would not be able to sell at a good price. In the eyes of the native soldiers, these Mongolian troops who could not advance or retreat were already their property. It is said that these Mongolian soldiers are strong and skilled in horsemanship, and they will definitely be able to sell for a good price on the grassland.

Huang Dagen did promise that the Mongol prisoners would be disposed of by the two states, but he also made a condition - the thumb, index finger and ring finger of the right hand must be cut off, so that they will not be able to hold a knife and shoot arrows in the future. The Thunderbolt army urgently needed labor to build roads and mines, but they did not want to be captured by the Mongols and Semu for fear of change. The so-called "those who are not of my race will have different hearts", these captive alien soldiers are often brutal, and it will be a disaster to keep them. The ethnic policy of the Perak Army is very clear, that is, all ethnic groups are equal, and as long as they accept Chinese culture and can speak Chinese, they can become a member of the Perak Army. In the political textbook compiled under the guidance of Ouyang Xuan, it is clearly written that whether it is the Han people, the Yi people, the Qiang people, or the Fan people, they are all ancestors in ancient times, and they all originate from the ancient Qiang people. Therefore, there are people of different races in all walks of life under the rule of the Perak Army, and there are also many Yibo and Qiang soldiers in the army, many of whom are still combat backbones and officers.

The soldiers of Weimao Prefecture regarded the besieged Mongolian soldiers as their own things, and they divided the severity into the heavy, and even began to shout for surrender. It's just that the Mongol soldiers are willing to give in easily, they have always regarded themselves very highly, and they simply look down on the peoples except the Mongols. Now these mountain barbarians actually want to make them kneel and ask for surrender, it's just an insult! It's tolerable, it's unbearable! Enraged, the attack intensified, killing and wounding several of the Wemao soldiers. But this reckless suicide also caused the Mongols to pile up more corpses under the rubble, so that the bubbling blood made the road slippery. Seeing that these people with colored eyes were so ignorant, Wei Maobing began to kill the killer in anger, which severely frustrated the momentum of the Mongolian army.

The Mongol army's tactics of refueling and charging lasted for most of the day, leaving nothing but corpses in one place. At this moment, the Mongolian army was like a beast trapped in a cage, frantically rushing and biting but being hit on the head and bleeding, and did not stop until he was exhausted. It was getting dark. In the pre-war arrangement, Huang Dagen deliberately emphasized two points, one is that it is strictly forbidden to take the initiative to prevent trapped beasts from fighting. Second, it is necessary to prevent the Mongolian army from taking advantage of the chaos to attack at night. Huang Dagen's strategy was to trap the Mongol army at Widow's Cliff and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

According to the information from the flying pigeon, Ouyang Xuan had ordered Yu Zhu to lead two battalions of 1,000 soldiers to hurry over. It's just that there are mountain roads for more than 300 miles from Guankou Village to Widow's Cliff, and you have to carry artillery, but the speed is not fast, and it will take at least six days to arrive. And this Mongolian army has been running for a long time, bringing a lot of grain and grass with it, plus it is one person and three horses, and when it is hungry, it can also kill horses and eat meat, so naturally it will not die of hunger. Therefore, the only siege strategy can be adopted.

Sure enough, the Mongol army launched several sneak attacks during the night, but they were all beaten back. At daybreak, the Wei Mao soldiers, angry at the stubbornness of the Mongol army, climbed to the top of the Widow's Cliff, and kept making noise in an attempt to cause new rockfalls. However, at the time of blasting, most of the loose stones have rolled down, and the mountain structure tends to be stable, which removes the hidden danger of falling rocks on the mountain road. Wei Maobing was not reconciled, and then pushed down a lot of stones, but the Mongolian army was scattered on these miles of mountain roads, and when they saw the stones rolling down, they dodged one after another, and only a few unlucky people were hit.

After four days of siege, the Mongol army, which had been stubbornly fighting back, surrendered. In fact, the Mongolian army besieged on the mountain road still had considerable combat effectiveness. Of the 1,000 cavalrymen, more than 100 were killed and wounded by falling rocks during the blasting, more than 200 were killed or wounded when the rocks were piled up before and after the attack, and more than 600 had their hands and feet intact. These Tanma Red Army is worthy of being the elite of the Mongolian army, extremely tenacious by nature, and did not collapse in the face of landslides and ground cracks, and the four-day siege did not make them lose their combat effectiveness. The reason why they were willing to surrender was because Wei Mao promised to surrender and not kill, and more importantly, if they didn't surrender, they would only have to feed Wang Ba with all their staff - the water had already flooded their calves.

The widow's cliff road is a few meters above the river and is rarely flooded, even during flash flood season. In fact, the Mongolian army also tried to escape through the river, but although several Mongolian soldiers who were hoisted down the river with ropes were proficient in water, they were not only knocked over by the torrent after entering the water, but they were swallowed by the turbulent and cold river in the blink of an eye. When the Thunderbolts blasted, a large number of stones rolled into the river, blocking part of the river. The blasting place of the Mongolian army's rear team was okay, only blocking one-third of the river, and did not block the river from flowing downward, but at the blasting place of the Mongolian army's front team, the river channel was blocked by rockfalls, causing the river water in the widow's cliff section to rise. The water level only rose slowly in the first two days, but from the third day onwards, the water increased sharply, and the color of the water changed from turquoise to yellow muddy water. By the fourth day, the volume of water was even more staggering, turning the river at Widow's Cliff into a dammed lake. Wei Maobing was not surprised by this, and they told Huang Dagen that it was because of the heavy rain in the upstream area.
