Seeing the enemy moving, Suo'etu knew that there was no longer any delay. The real test had come, so he immediately assembled the army to prepare for the battle, and went out of the camp to line up in front of the camp. Not cowardly, but also out of camp.

Fortunately, Suo Ertu is not the kind of person who likes to use cannon fodder soldiers, and the two sides are cavalry bloody battles, using cannon fodder infantry is simply courting death, and those cannon fodder soldiers Suoertu dare not use, their strength is too low, I am afraid that when the time comes No, fleeing, disrupting your position, and affecting the morale of your troops.

The two Mongolian cavalry were placed on the two wings. Suoertu led the Manchu cavalry to line up the central army, and put yesterday's scout cavalry and the broken Han army flag cavalry and Mongolian cavalry behind his own team. While protecting the barracks, they were ready to attack at any time Support your own army.

The entire array is very close, and the left and right wings are almost connected, because Suoertu knows that if two thousand soldiers and horses are to block the enemy's Chinese cavalry assault, it is simply courting death, so the Mongolian cavalry can only be pushed against the enemy. In the front, I shrink back and support at any time.

Brother Zhu, with two field brigades of cavalry, cold-armed and dragoons, and personal guard cavalry, he put about 4000 dragoons in front of the cavalry formation, and Lancers and cavalry in the back of the formation. This is the same as Suo'etu, with [-] cavalry and [-] cavalry on each side.

I brought my own guard cavalry and cavalry archers, and the phalanx formed by the chasse cavalry was about 2000 troops. In the middle army, there were scout cavalry and the militia cavalry who followed. In fact, they were also horse infantry. There are also heavy soldiers composed of mules and horses in the camp.

The flag wavered, and Brother Zhu took the initiative to attack.

Because Suo'etu is like a tortoise, just an array, he spent nearly an hour, the two sides confronted each other for half an hour, and he spent another hour and a half, Brother Zhu was a little bit breathless, the opponent neither attacked nor defended , just staying there, he can only take the initiative to attack, the army led by Xiao Fei is coming soon, if he can't clean up the enemy's broken forces, where will he put his face?

The dragoons in front rushed towards the enemy together, and the Lancers behind followed slowly, ready to charge at any time.

The range of activities of the cavalry was larger, and the two sides met about five miles away. When the dragoons reached about one mile in front of Suo'etu's formation, Suo'etu ordered the Mongolian cavalry in front to charge.

The eight thousand cavalry moved together, walking slowly at first, and after the formation spread out slightly, the horses began to trot, then speed up, and finally began to sprint for 100 meters.

The dragon cavalry of the Huaxia Army stopped at 150 meters away, and began to load ammunition one after another. At 130 meters, after the ammunition was loaded, they fired neatly. Even if the Mongolian cavalry dispersed, the eight thousand cavalry were still dense and inseparable. Undisputedly penetrated most of the enemy's first platoon cavalry.

The Mongolian cavalrymen fell off their horses one after another and were trampled by the cavalry behind. They were either killed or injured, and the injuries were serious.

The formation became somewhat disorganized.

But the Mongolian cavalry is still speeding up, speeding up, and speeding up again. However, what makes them feel shameful is that the enemy is still not moving, where to load ammunition, 50 meters, the enemy's second round of volley comes down, and the Mongolian cavalry has lost about 1000 troops , Maybe most of them didn't die, they just fell off their horses, but they fell off their horses, which means that the Mongolian cavalry has lost more than [-] combat power at once.

The Mongolian cavalry still had hope, and they were approaching the enemy. A single charge could cause the enemy to lose so much. Although the Mongolian cavalry had no blood since the Yuan Dynasty, their natural cavalry attributes were still there, and their combat effectiveness was still considered They are much stronger than the Ming cavalry. Even five elite cavalry of the Ming Dynasty on the grassland may not be able to beat the Mongolian cavalry with cavalry and archery skills. These Ming cavalry in the south, they think, they are still highly regarded if they fight ten of them.

But when they approached a distance of about 40 meters, the enemy's formation suddenly dispersed, and then they were greeted by the Lancers behind.

The Mongolian cavalry had already opened their bows and was about to shoot the first round of arrows at the enemy. At this time, the enemy suddenly rushed up from behind the dragoons and directly collided with them at a distance of 20 meters from the dragoons.

The dragoons fired a round of volleys before this, perhaps because the distance was closer, and the enemy's volleys were more lethal than before. This time they took away more than 600 Mongolian cavalrymen at once, and then the enemy collided with them.

The several-meter-long spear directly hit him, dismounting the cavalry in one fell swoop, and many of them fell on their backs without drawing the bows and arrows in their hands.

The sprint speed of the Lancers was simply lightning, directly smashing their formation.

Of course, the Lancers also lost a lot, at least 300 fell from their horses, but the Mongolian cavalry was even heavier. The salvo of the three-wheeled dragoons cost them nearly [-] troops, and the Lancers caused them to lose [-] troops. One-third of the troops were gone.

The Lancers who lost their spears pulled out the spears hanging on both sides, turned around and rushed back again, while the dragoons began to shoot freely, and the dragoons in the front row threw away their matchlock guns and rushed up directly brandishing their sabers.

The dragoons in the back row rode their horses and ran to both sides. The cold-armed cavalry of the two families collided. The battlefield expanded rapidly, and the range of one mile was not enough. The battlefield quickly spread to the plains, hills, and woods for five or six miles. In the area, countless cavalry entangled, pursued, and fought.

The Chinese armies of both sides stood still and formed a line at a place where they were closer to each other and gathered more than three miles away, waiting for the front army to come out with a result.

Seeing that the enemy's cavalry was decreasing, Brother Zhu quickly ordered some dragoons from the rear to come back and line up on both sides of him.

But Suo'etu had a cold face, and others didn't know what he was thinking, so he watched the cavalry fight on the battlefield without adjusting his deployment.

It was only when the cavalry of the Huaxia army fled to the edge of their formation that the Manchu cavalry of the Qing army bent their bows and set up arrows one after another, and stopped after killing a few dragoons who were approaching, and did not help the Mongolian cavalry.

Suo'etu looked at the sky from time to time.

Chapter 461 Meeting Obai 13

The sunset is rising in the sky, and tomorrow will be a fine weather. This is Suo'etu's conclusion. He knows that today is over.

Suo'etu is not Oboi, he is just a young Manchu general. The reason why he stopped this task is because he is a person who uses his brain completely. His father, Sony, is a civil servant and he is a second Dai, of course, inherited the blood of civil servants, and prefers to use his brains.

The task that Oboi gave was to hold off the Huaxia Army for a day, he basically completed it, and there was an extra midnight, which was regarded as overfulfilling the task.

The price is, huh, [-] Mongolian cavalry, he didn't say that he would lead these people to win the battle, and he would be credited for completing the task, at least half of the credit. He has the right to speak in it, so it is impossible to be sent to the guillotine to be a scapegoat for a battle that is bound to fail. He has half of the credit, and he is half sure of his promotion in the future. The rest is his father's operation.

Yes, he just came here to take credit for it. He used [-] Mongolian cavalry. It has nothing to do with him whether they fight well or not. What he needs is to delay the enemy's completion of the mission.

If possible, even the remaining thousands of Qing soldiers are his bargaining chips.

The 8000 Mongolian cavalry had already been defeated, and kept fleeing back to the main formation. There are less than 5000 soldiers and horses left among the [-] men, which is not bad.

The enemy came after him, and he said to the guards beside him: "Order thousands of Manchu cavalry to gather the soldiers and make the main assault, and let the two thousand cavalry of the scout cavalry and the rear cavalry also go up."

He saw that the enemy had moved the central army over there, but his central army was slowly moving backwards. After the orderer sent the order, the Manchu cavalry, scout cavalry, and the broken cavalry charged up again, strangling the enemy's chasing cavalry. At the same time, he stabilized his position temporarily, at least he stabilized his position at about 100 meters ahead of his Chinese army.

Then he looked up at the sky again, and ran directly towards the camp with two hundred cavalry from the personal guard.

As soon as he moved, some nearby Mongolian cavalry found it and moved accordingly. In ten minutes, his personal guards ran into the camp, and then fled back. The whole team of Mongolian cavalry also fled in, one thousand, two thousand, two thousand Five hundred, he ordered the gates of the camp to be closed, and then returned to the camp's central military tent.

The cavalry of the Huaxia Army outside has charged in full force. The remaining [-] Mongolian cavalry, Manchu cavalry, scout cavalry, rear cavalry, nearly [-] cavalry and the enemy cavalry are chasing and killing each other on the hilly terrain with a radius of five miles.

After resting for a while, he ordered to pull out [-] stored horses, dragged some supplies, and stood by the camp gate behind. He brought half of the bodyguard cavalry to the front camp, and looked around the camp with a binoculars. The enemy had already been killed. Within a mile of camp.

Many scout cavalry and the broken Han Army Banner Green Battalion cavalry were either injured and captured, or jumped off their horses and surrendered.

The enemy's cavalry slashed and killed the Mongolian cavalry who were still stubbornly resisting, while the dragoons shot and killed the Mongolian cavalry in their line of sight freely.

Always suppressing the Mongolian cavalry of the Qing army, so that they would not gather together and form a counterattack force.

"Set up the cannon and put it high in the camp, and the enemy will bombard them when they approach the camp." Then he took the cavalry of his personal guard and ordered the master of the Mongolian cavalry who had fled back to the camp to meet him.

Seeing the chief generals of several Mongolian cavalry, "You go out to the back camp first, and then retreat to the left and right to attract the main force of the enemy to chase you, understand?"

Several Mongolian cavalry chiefs were very annoyed and complained about Suo'etu, but now they dare not disobey Suo'etu's order. Their family and tribe are on the grassland. If they are passed back, the tribe will be finished.

He took the order to carry out Suo'etu's order.

Then Suo'etu said to a small team leader beside him: "You lead fifty warriors to supervise those servants, fight a defensive battle with the enemy, hold on until midnight, and then you can look for an opportunity to evacuate."

After speaking, he took 150 personal guard cavalry, one man with two horses, plus [-] war horses dragging luggage, out of the camp, and fled desperately in the chaos.

Now the real escape begins.

He discarded all his troops, including the Manchu Qing cavalry with [-] troops.

At this time, Brother Zhu, who didn't have a cannon, was commanding all the available cavalry troops to chase the cavalry of the Qing army around. After arresting 100 people, he immediately sent ten cavalry soldiers back to their camp. He had already dispatched scout cavalry to pursue Oboi's troops, but he couldn't wipe out the highly mobile Mongolian cavalry at once. It was a painful thing to fight against cavalry with the same mobility.

Especially when your troops are insufficient, he can't surround the enemy on all sides.

When he finally returned to the camp, Xiao Fei had brought a large army to his camp and settled down. More than 1 infantry and more than 1 militia troops poured into the camp, and it suddenly became crowded.

After the battle came to an end, he sat down and thought for a while, only to realize that he had been tricked by an idiot. Was he fighting?

Throwing the cavalry in front of the enemy's formation, and then ran away. From the beginning to the end, he did not face the enemy's central army head-on, and took a close look at what the enemy's main general looked like.

"Master General, today we captured 800 Mongolian cavalrymen and killed 200 Mongolian cavalrymen. The enemy's scout cavalrymen killed 500 people and surrendered 500 people. [-] people, [-] captured, our army suffered [-] cavalry casualties, of which [-] cavalry lost their combat effectiveness, [-] cavalry were killed, and [-] cavalry were seriously injured."
