The great depth and multi-point flowering, this is the setting of this punitive operation after repeated deliberations by the military advisor Wan Lian and Xiong Chu, mainly to achieve three purposes.

First of all, disturb the backyard of Yarkand Khan, and at the same time avenge the lone wolf, so that they have no time to look east, so as to create conditions for their own return to the east.

Secondly, the implementation of the strategy of "razing and destroying the country" made Yarkand Khan think that the Dzungar tribe had entered his hinterland, and it was impossible to prevent it from being everywhere. Then dog-eat-dog each other to reduce the pressure on the direction of Jiayuguan.

Again, learning the ways of these barbarian tribes, looting a batch of materials and transporting them back to Guannai, can be regarded as a gift to the common people of the Central Plains. Military advisor Wan Lian believes that these barbarian tribes have plundered the Central Plains for thousands of years, and it is not a big deal for him to rob once in a while.

However, whether it is the military advisor Wan Lian or Xiong Chu, their requirements for the troops are to leave with one blow and not allow delays.

However, the development of things cannot be controlled at all, and this is why there is a military standard of "the general will be ordered by the king abroad, and there will be something unacceptable".

The army is thousands of miles away, and it is not at all possible that one person can completely control it, because war has its own unique laws and inertia of operation.

Xiong Kaishan was just a temporary idea, that is, he wanted to get a batch of good horses to bring back, and the starting point was very simple.

However, young people do not think about the problem thoroughly, and they will naturally make a big mess.

Xiong Kaishan didn't empathize: What you think is good may be the lifeblood of others.

The Yanqi horse is famous all over the world, and it is precisely the lifeblood of Muhammad and all Yarkand Khan.

You cut off other people's lives with one knife, and people don't play with you to have ghosts.

The Central Plains is a state of etiquette, so there is a precept that "a gentleman does not win people's love".

It's a pity that Xiong Kaishan definitely has no fate with the gentleman in his life, he thinks that good things should be his own, and as a result, the situation is out of control.

More than 1,000 people who had been slanted up from the north were blown up by the condescending tiger squat cannon, and Xiong Kaishan finally rushed through the pass and got a chance to save their lives, but the matter was not over.

Or rather, the real battle just begins.

The army of Muhammad then arrived, and now seven or eight thousand men and horses had been gathered, and once the enemy and the enemy were free to fight, it would not be a simple battle, but would directly turn into a major battle.

Now it was getting dark, and Muhammad did not want to stay, and there must be a result today, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

As for what happened in the enemy's house, Huo Lianshan and Xiong Kaishan didn't know.

The two of them stood at the top and saw that there were too many enemies, and they didn't know what to do next.

Although the more than 1,000 people in the hussar battalion were not injured, they had no strength to fight again in a short time.

There were more than 1,000 people in the firearms battalion, and more than 700 people were in charge of the tiger squat artillery, and those who were able to charge into battle were 240 people from the Divine Aircraft Squadron and 240 people from the Cavalry Shooting Brigade, adding up to 480 people.

Attacking the enemy's seven or eight thousand with four hundred and eighty men, that is not a battle, but a death.

Besides, even if they can charge into battle, the task of the Divine Aircraft and the Cavalry Archery Team is not this at all, but to protect the last defense force of the Tiger Squat Artillery.

"Kaishan, do you know if you disobeyed the order?" Huo Lianshan looked at the enemy formation at the foot of the mountain, and was a little angry in his heart: "The master and the military advisor have repeatedly emphasized that they will leave with one blow, and they must not drag mud and water. It's good that now it's not a matter of dragging mud and water, but of stimulating the enemy's main forces. ”

Xiong Kaishan looked very indifferent: "Senior brother, that's not what I said. I've been very patient this time, and I didn't kill a few people in total, but I just got a few horses. These guys are haunted, how can you blame me?"

Huo Lianshan was a little anxious: "We came here for a long time, but we didn't carry extra gunpowder, and we didn't even have many projectiles. Hurry down and get your brothers ready, if the enemy doesn't want to charge, my Tiger Squat Cannon will only last for an hour. ”

"If all the gunpowder is all over and the enemy can't retreat, then you will have to contain the enemy and cover my tiger squat cannon to retreat first. ”

"Fortunately, there is a favorable location here, and the Tiger Squat Artillery Team does not need defensive troops for the time being. From now on, my Divine Aircraft and Cavalry Archery Team will all be under your command, and you must not let the enemy rush through the pass. ”

With such a speech, a phalanx had slowly pressed up from the west, and Huo Lianshan and Xiong Kaishan's hearts were a little nervous.

Because the enemy came up with two thousand men at once, and almost a quarter of the troops were taken out.

The enemy's speed is slow, and the sound of the horses' hooves appears neat. Every time the horse's hooves hit the ground, the sound of heavy footsteps seemed to knock on people's hearts.

One hundred and eighty tiger squat cannons were divided into two groups and occupied the north and south sides of the pass. The bird gun team defended the high ground on the north side, the cavalry team defended the high ground on the south side, and the hussar battalion of Xiong Kaishan was lined up fifty zhang east of the pass.

Now, however, the soldiers of the hussar battalion were under their horses, and each of them had a bow and arrow in his hand, staring at the enemy who was slowly approaching to the west of the pass.

The main thing is to allow the horses to recover some horsepower a little, and if the enemy dodges the artillery fire and rushes over, the soldiers must first perform a round of bow and arrow strikes, and then improvise according to the actual situation.

At the same time, the god aircraft and cavalry archery teams that served as defenders on the high ground on both sides began the second round of strikes.

This will not only destroy the enemy, but also buy time for the Tiger Squat Cannons on both sides to recharge.

Qiao Rushan's voice sounded at the right time: "Everyone, pay attention, the enemy is coming over with a cavalry team of 2,000 people, and we must not let them rush to within sixty steps, let alone let them carry out projectiles." In the first round, the unified use of flowering shells will give the enemy a dismount, and prepare for ignition!"

Xiong Kaishan was also the first to stand in the middle of the road, but the bow in his hand was larger and heavier than the others, because he used a seven-stone bow.

As soon as Qiao Rushan's voice fell, Xiong Kaishan's left arm was raised, and three wolf tooth arrows had been put on his right hand, and then the bow opened like a full moon, and with a whoosh, the three arrows had already left the string.

Chige can shoot out 240 steps, and Xiong Kaishan is infinitely powerful and can shoot out 280 steps.

Later, he practiced with Chige for a period of time, and his archery skills improved greatly.

Today's arrow is also an arrow he shot with all his might, just to let the enemy know that he knows that it is powerful.

The tiger squat cannon had not yet exploded, and Xiong Kaishan's three wolf tooth arrows had already killed five people.

Tom Tom -- The twists of the 180 tiger squat cannons were finally burned, and then they began to roar one after another.

The flowering ball was like a crow smashing into the enemy's phalanx, and a secondary explosion had already occurred before it hit the ground.

No matter how many people were killed, just the secondary explosion overhead startled the enemy's war horse, and the impact formation was suddenly a big mess.

It was clear that the force had probably not been hit by heavy artillery fire, so the response was somewhat disjointed, or simply overwhelmed.

The moment the enemy's impact formation was blown up, Xiong Kaishan seized the opportunity and shouted: "Each person shoots three times in a row, release the arrow!"

For long-range strikes, the soldiers' five-stone bows are all projectiles, mainly so that the enemy cannot retract the formation.

It was the two high and low Divine Aircraft and Mounted Archery Squadrons in front of them that really inflicted heavy casualties on the enemy, because they were closer to the enemy and used precision strikes.

In an instant, three rounds of blows were received, the enemy lost hundreds of people, and more than two hundred wounded and undead war horses rolled on the ground.

The enemy's first assault failed, and naturally he did not rush through the pass and retreated, and the sky was already completely dark.

Huo Lianshan and Xiong Kaishan did not dare to take it lightly because it was dark, and it was common for them to launch a sneak attack in the middle of the night.

After waiting for almost an hour, Xiong Kaishan was already impatient: "Senior brother, it's not a way to confront each other like this. After all, we have traveled a long way, and the brothers are almost unable to hold on. ”

"My point of view is this: you lead the Tiger Squat Artillery Team to withdraw first, and the Hussar Battalion takes on the defensive mission. After you leave, I will lead the Divine Aircraft and Cavalry Archery Team to take the initiative to attack the enemy camp and make them unable to rest. ”

Huo Lianshan also felt that the current situation was completely out of the predetermined plan, and it was impossible to hold on here for six days, so he agreed to Xiong Kaishan's plan.

It wasn't until the third watch that Huo Lianshan's tiger squat cannon pair quietly withdrew.

Xiong Kaishan gave an order, and led the divine aircraft team and the cavalry team to trot all the way to the enemy's camp.

Weird!

The enemy camp was lit with torches, but there was not a single one.

Xiong Kaishan found that the enemy had also retreated quietly, and he was puzzled in his heart.

Whether you figure it out or not, now the enemy is gone.

For such a strange situation, Xiong Kaishan did not dare to take it lightly.

Returning to the pass, Xiong Kaishan ordered the soldiers to make a fire and roast horse meat, and the food source was the dead horses of the enemy.

It lasted until the next day, when Xiong Kaishan finally determined that the enemy had completely retreated, and then led the troops to slowly retreat eastward.

In fact, although Huo Lianshan and Xiong Kaishan have fought many bloody battles, they are not proficient in the art of war.

When the enemy was sleepy and tired, he launched an attack without rest, and the ultimate goal was to retreat.

When a large army fights, it is not difficult to attack, the most important thing is to retreat.

If a retreat is not organized with a well-planned plan, it will turn into a major rout once it is pursued by the enemy.

Muhammad fought all year round and was a man who was accustomed to fighting.

After seeing the intensity of the artillery attack twice in a row, he already knew that this time he had completely failed.

First of all, it is not known how many people there are in the enemy, and therefore how great the enemy's combat effectiveness is;

secondly, it is not known what the enemy's ultimate combat purpose is and where the main operational direction is;

Third, his Great Khan is dead, and there is no aftermath yet, so how to deal with it next is a big problem;

Fourth, Abdullah, the king of the Tu domain, has rebelled, and it is still unknown whether he will immediately send troops to attack him.

With these four elements of defeat, Muhammad certainly could not waste time here and tangled up with a group of unknown enemies.

For Muhammad, gaining the status of Great Khan was the first task, preventing the attack that Abdullah might launch at any time was the second task, and finally figuring out who the enemy was today.

In short, if you want to solve the problem, you must first return it safely.

By using a pressing attack to keep his opponent on high alert, he was able to safely pull back his large forces and then rush to deal with his toughest problems.

Muhammad achieved his goal, and although he lost a lot of men, the main force retreated safely.

The enemy had no time to look eastward, and Xiong Chu and the military advisor Wan Lian achieved the first goal of diverting the enemy's attention.

Supposedly they should be satisfied, but this is far from the case.

Because a strange thing happened in Qilian Mountain south of Yangguan, Xiong Chu, Lan'er, Yan Erniang and others were puzzled. Even the scheming rogue military advisor Wan Lian has not been able to find the reason for this until now.
