Now Li Xianzhong has led more than 3,000 cavalry to the Yahu Pass, only because the mountain road is narrow, and the ironclad heavy cavalry is not easy to intersperse, so they are left behind.

I thought that the Tartars would not be able to catch up at all, this was an easy errand, but I didn't expect such a change to happen.

Li Xianzhong has been setting off for more than an hour, and now he can't chase him back, so he can only rely on the more than 400 brothers under Zha Huizu.

To make matters worse, it seems that the weather is also on the side of the Tartars, and the original heavy snow has suddenly stopped, so that the Tartars can advance faster.

Zha Huizu said: "You tell Li Dashuai that the young general has gone behind enemy lines, and I will definitely try my best to hold back the Tartars, but please be sure to leave unnecessary supplies, advance lightly, and leave here as soon as possible." ”

Although it was already dark, the white snow completely covered the mountain under the light of the torches, creating a stark contrast to the night.

The horses' hooves crunched muffled on the soft snow. The horses walked through the snow with a firm and powerful step, and each leap provoked a snow-white splash that seemed to merge with the snow.

The marching cavalry was like a white python shuttling through the mountains.

But soon they had to pause again.

Du Du pointed to the trees and scolded: "These damn Ming troops have blocked the road again!" ”

Soon some of the cavalrymen skillfully tied ropes to the felled pine trees, and then the knights swung their leather whips vigorously, and the painful horses let out a roar, panting and began to exert force.

Slowly, the trees were dragged up, and some of the soldiers skillfully piled them on the side of the road.

Huang Taiji found that the distance between the Ming army and the trees was getting closer and closer, and it was originally necessary to wait several miles before there were these obstacles; You can see it almost every mile now.

This shows that his judgment is right, and they are getting closer and closer to the Ming army.

Mang Gurtai complained at this time: "Sibeile, no matter how fast we drag the tree, we can't compare to the speed of the Ming army cutting down the tree, and we can't catch up with the Ming army if we continue like this." ”

This couldn't be simpler, so Huang Taiji asked people to take out the map again.

Although this is within the border walls of the Ming Kingdom, the spies of the Later Jin have long been all over Liaodong, and the topographic maps in their hands are even more detailed than those of the Ming Army.

Huang Taiji said: "Through this forest, there is a small road in the north, although it is more than ten miles to detour from here, but it can appear in the rear of the Ming army. ”

"I'm tired of the three belles leading the blue flag to walk down the path, as long as the speed is fast enough, it should be able to block the Ming army in front of us to create obstacles for us."

Zha Huizu still commanded the Ming army in an orderly manner, blocking the advance of the Eight Banners by constantly cutting down the big trees on both sides of the road. They did not let go of almost every place on the road that could create obstacles for the enemy.

However, it also greatly slowed down their own retreat.

Just as they were blocking another road, they suddenly found themselves behind them with the sound of thousands of horses galloping, and the sound of violent trembling caused the snow to fall from the surrounding trees.

"Oh no, it must have been Jianyu who took a detour from the path."

At this time, the road has been blocked by its own trees, and the ironclad heavy riders can only fight with the trees on their backs.

Mang Gurtai ran in the snow all day and finally let him stop this group of Ming soldiers, he waved the machete in his hand and shouted: "Warriors, finally block this group of Ming dogs, everyone rush over with me and slaughter them!" ”

There was no way to avoid the narrow road, and by this time the cavalry on both sides had already entered a state of acceleration.

Zha Huizu also took the lead and rushed to the forefront.

The so-called "the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road", although the strength of the Zhenglan Banner is ten times that of the Ming army, it cannot be displayed at all on the narrow road.

The dozens of horsemen at the front of both sides quickly entered the duel.

Swords intersected, and the sound of metal clashing echoed across the steep mountain walls on either side of the road. The cacophony of metal grinding mingled with high-pitched shouts, and the cavalrymen swung their weapons like tigers.

The horses' hooves stepped on the snow, the horses kept neighing, and as the number of people who fell gradually increased, the surrounding snow was gradually dyed red.

Zhenglan Qi spared a circle in the crater mountain road before, and Rao Xiaolu just now, in fact, the consumption of horsepower was far greater than that of the Ming army. In addition, the Ming army was an ironclad heavy cavalry, and once it was fought, the Liaodong iron cavalry had the upper hand.

Zha Huizu was wearing heavy armor and wielding the big knife in his hand, every swing was like thunder, and the knife was sharp and ferocious. It is agile and wields a great sword, and everywhere it passes is the blood and blood of the enemy.

After a while, the Kung Fu Ming army advanced a distance of dozens of meters.

Seeing this, Mang Gurtai immediately raised his knife to meet Zha Huizu, and the two big knives collided together and produced fierce sparks.

Although the bows and arrows of the Eight Banners did little damage to the Ming army wearing iron armor, the throwing weapons such as hammers and short spears carried by the Eight Banners were still quite threatening.

Many Ming troops in the battle were hit by these throwing weapons and fell from their horses.

In the face of the sneak attack of the Zhenglan Banner, the Ming army in the back row directly ignited the three-eyed gun, and it was an output to the Houjin army.

For a while, the sound of guns continued, and the white mist was swirling.

The white tooth horns of the blue flag were hit by the fire and fell to the ground, letting out a painful wail!

The battle lasted nearly an hour, and despite the heavy casualties of the blue flag, the white and red bells of the flag were almost exhausted.

But their numerical superiority was reflected, and they took turns to fight and constantly consume the physical strength of the Ming army.

At this time, most of the Ming army had already suffered casualties, and the rest of the people were also a little lacking in stamina because of the long-term fighting.

What's even more unfortunate is that the two white flags of Huang Taiji and Du Du have also arrived here.

As the last few trees were removed, the new forces of the two white flags joined the fight.

The Liaodong Iron Cavalry, which had been struggling to support, finally couldn't support it, and because it was attacked from both sides, many Ming troops lost sight of one or the other, and were soon killed by the Eight Banners.

At this time, Cha Huizu was injured in many places, and he was already a bloody man.

Seeing that all the ironclad heavy cavalry he trained with his own hands died on the battlefield and sacrificed his life for the Ming Dynasty, he couldn't help but feel a little sad at this time.

He said silently in his heart: I can only delay these times for the marshal, and I can be regarded as worthy of the Li family, and the young general must avenge his brothers!

Then he let out a roar of rage, and with a single blow he shook back the mang-Gultai who was haunting him. Rushed straight towards the few white flags that were slaughtering his subordinates, and cut them off their horses.

In the end, he died tragically under the spears of the Eight Banners.

This battle lasted more than an hour, and more than 400 Liaodong iron cavalry finally killed twice as many enemies as them.

Sanbel Mang Gultai was injured in many places, compared to the physical trauma, he was more heartbroken for the warriors under his command, although his positive blue flag was not lost by more than half, but the elite in the flag has been consumed, it can be said that it is wasted!

Huang Taiji also saw Le Mang Gultai's loss at this time, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Sanbeile eliminated the Li family's ironclad heavy cavalry, and eliminated the great trouble for my Dajin, which is really the first great hero, I believe that the Great Khan will definitely give him a reward." ”

"Next, we will go all out to pursue the infantry of the Ming army!"
