Dulong Sengge drew out his scimitar, and held the snow with his sword, which reflected faint crystal light. He turned his wrist suddenly, pointed at Bai Dengshan, and shouted loudly:

"Kill!"

"Surround Ben Khan with white climbing!"

For a moment, the sound of horseshoes soared into the sky.

Chapter 463 Taking Your Body as Bait

The snow was still falling, and the sound of the wind was still whistling in the ears. The cold wind carried the fine snow and ice, which made people's cheeks hurt.

The Tumet cavalry stepped on the frozen soil of Datong, making a deafening rumble.

Dulong Sengge rode at the front, holding a scimitar in his hand, while galloping his horse, he kept looking in the direction of Baideng Mountain.

At this moment, there was a roar in the sky.

But a few black shadows shot out from the top of Baideng Mountain, and landed on the marching Tumet horse team without hindrance, scattered the horse team at once, and then plunged into the ground.

The permafrost covered by the heavy snow cracked open, bringing up large expanses of sandy soil, and besides the corpses of the Tumed and his mount, white smoke also came out of the pit.

Tumed was relatively close to the border, and often dealt with the Ming army guarding the pass. They knew without looking that it was the artillery of the Ming army firing from the mountain.

This is just the beginning, there are continuous loud noises coming from Baideng Mountain, shaking the minds of every Tumed cavalry holding the reins.

There were more and more black shadows in the sky, and the Tumets looked at each other, looking a little shocked, and more of a little scared.

Swords and arrows have no eyes, especially the artillery of the southerners.

No one knew if he would be the next one. When he was suddenly bombarded, even the best equestrian warriors on the grassland could hardly avoid it.

Dulong Sengge heard the wailing behind him, and also heard the trembling words around him. He knew that the Mongols had always been afraid of the artillery of the Ming army.

But now that he couldn't care so much, Dulong Sengge rode his horse to the edge of a small pit, looking at the tragedy inside, his face was gloomy.

It seems that since the last knock on the pass, the firearms of the Ming army have a longer range and sharper, and they can hit themselves before entering the official way.

If things go on like this, there will be fewer and fewer times when you can knock and plunder like now!

As Bai Dengshan continued to fire, the exclamation of the Tumet cavalry in front became louder and louder.

The cavalry had just entered the official road, and it was still more than a mile away from the foot of Baideng Mountain. No one thought that the artillery of the Ming army would be so powerful at such a long distance.

"Enter the official way!"

"Don't retreat, as long as you surround Baideng Mountain, you don't have to be afraid of the bombardment of the children in the South!"

A large number of Tumet cavalry who ran away seemed to be fleeing for their lives, and they entered the Dengbai official road in a black mass. They soon discovered that although the Ming army recaptured the official road, they did not erect any banners on the official road.

Now it seems that Zhang Wanbang's raid on the official road is more like harassment, so that he can't drink horses and transfer comfortably.

The Ming army on both sides of the official road had already been waiting for the battle, waiting for the Mongols to enter the encirclement.

Thanks to the fast speed of the Tumed cavalry, the movement caused by the marching could well cover up the sound of the Ming army's mobilization.

Soon, all Tumet cavalry entered the official road.

One mile, it's not far, it's not very close, Dulong Singe rode the fastest tawny horse in the headquarters, and soon came to the foot of Baideng Mountain.

Looking at the narrow entrance to the mountain, he became more determined that Zhang Wanbang wanted to lead him into the mountain.

"Look, the terrain of Baideng Mountain is long and narrow, and the entrance to the mountain is so narrow. If a large army passes through and forcibly attacks the mountain, I'm afraid it will be a meat grinder!"

Dulong Sengge pointed to the mountain and then to the entrance, and said:

"After Zhang Wanbang claimed to be a famous general, he was mistaken for his cleverness. In my opinion, these so-called famous generals among the children in the Southern Kingdom all look alike!"

"The order—"

Before he finished speaking, there was a sound of hoofbeats from the mountain pass, but it was Zhang Wanbang, the commander of Datong, who appeared alone, and said sarcastically:

"Dulong Sengge, thanks to you being the hero, the town has been waiting here for a long time, standing next to the mountain, why, are you afraid?"

"King Khan!"

Dulong Sengge was not in a hurry, but the lords below were in a hurry, clamoring to lead the crowd to attack the mountain, even if they dismounted and attacked by force, these arrogant southern children would have to pay the price.

"Zhang Wanbang is deliberately luring me into the mountains. Have you read Romance of the Three Kingdoms?"

"Nanguo children have always been very cunning. We don't need to forcefully attack the mountain. After tonight's siege, when the Great Khan captures the town of Datong, we just retreat!"

"With his tens of thousands of infantry, he still dare not go out to fight me!"

After returning, Zhang Wanbang came to the barracks, and a servant approached him and said:

"There is really no need to risk your life on the township. There are only guards and artillery battalions on the mountain. If the Mongols are provoked to attack, I am afraid that the brothers will not be able to protect the township."

Zhang Wanbang pressed his hands down and said loudly:

"Since ancient times, the way to use soldiers has been to pay attention to a soldier who does not fight and drive people away. If he does not move, it will arouse the suspicion of the Mongols."

"When I stand outside like this, I am telling the Mongols that there are all my main forces on this mountain, and I hope he can attack the mountain."

"In this way, he will not dare to act rashly!"

In fact, Dulong Sengge's thoughts were exactly as Zhang Wanbang expected. The commander-in-chief on the opposite side was on the mountain, which almost meant that there must be heavy soldiers ambushing on the mountain.

Directly attacking the mountain will lose the advantage of the cavalry, and the large group of cavalry will become infantry, facing the sharp firearms of the Ming army head-on, even if they attack, they will definitely suffer heavy casualties.

But if he surrounded the mountain like this, Zhang Wanbang couldn't go down the mountain. As soon as he fired a cannon, he ordered people to harass and shoot arrows. Zhang Wanbang would be the one who felt uncomfortable!

Besides, Dulong Singge also has another layer of concerns.

The more than [-] people brought here are all warriors from the Tumote Department, and the attack on the mountain was damaged. He paid the bill himself, and he expected Lin Dan Batur to compensate?Obviously whimsical!

"Surround Bai Dengshan in groups, and we can't let a soldier from the Southern Kingdom go!"

When the Tumed cavalry formed at the foot of the mountain and planned to encircle but not attack, the rest of the Ming army also quietly touched both sides of the official road, quietly waiting for the order to fire the cannon on the mountain.

After a while, there was movement on the mountain.

"Bang bang bang-!"

This time the cannons hardly stopped, and the deafening noise effectively covered up the footsteps of the Ming army's attack.

Seeing the firing of cannons on the mountain, a lord of Tumot also commanded the cavalry to shoot:

"Shoot for me, shoot up the mountain, even if you can't shoot, you still have to disturb those children in the southern country, so that they can't shoot easily!"

After the words were settled, Tumet's cavalrymen raised their bows and arrows one after another, and then suddenly screamed and fell off their horses.

The lord looked back, just in time for a lead bullet to hit him on the forehead, his eyes instantly lost their luster, and he fell under the horse.

There was a sound of volleyball firing from the field ridges on both sides of the official road, and countless Ming soldiers suddenly jumped out from all directions.

There was a continuous bang bang bang bang like fried beans, and dense lead bullets shot towards the Tumed cavalry.

The screams sounded from several directions almost at the same time, and the Tumed cavalry on the outside of the cavalry formation were shot one after another and fell off their horses.

The Ming army caught up and pierced the chests of these fallen Tumut cavalrymen with their blades.

"Where is the sound coming from?"

Dulong Singge was riding on the horse, and there was extremely loud noise from all directions in his ears, and he couldn't hear what was going on at all.

There was the sound of cannons from the mountains in the sky, and the explosion of many bird guns suddenly appeared around nowhere, and there were more and more screams and neighing in my ears.

"Not good! I fell into the trick of the Nanguo kid!"

Chapter 464 Battle of Fame

"What's the matter with the sentry, hundreds of people, but no one has discovered that Nanguo children have ambushed a large number of ambushes on both sides of the official road?"

In fact, Zhang Wanbang did not set up many ambushes when Tumote sentry was inquiring on the official road. At first, he just wanted to catch a few tongues and ask about the situation in the town.

Because of the news from the Guangchang Camp that Tumote's troops had come to the official road, they temporarily changed their strategy and planned to use their tactics to seize the opportunity when the Mongolian sentries withdrew and the army had not yet entered the official road.

Dulong Sengge came to a lord who was in charge of commanding the sentry. He had no intention of listening to his excuse, so he swung his knife and slashed. Looking at the corpse at his feet, he spat:

"What a waste!"

The rest of the lords were shocked by this, and one of them looked at Dulong Sengge in disbelief and advised, "This is the end of the matter, King Khan, let's think of a solution!"

"The solution? Hit!" Dulong Sengge waved his scimitar and shouted loudly: "Whoever retreats will die! Anyone who dares to retreat, kill me first!"

There was a shout from far behind, but Dulong Sengge couldn't see it. In fact, it was the Guangchang camp led by Qu Jiazhen who came rushing.

"No retreat!"

"Shoot back with arrows! Cavalry can't beat infantry in the plains, so what face do I have to go back to the grasslands and sweat!" Dulong Sengge rode his horse to meet Guangchang Camp, but because the surroundings were too noisy, he had to shout with all his might.

In fact, although the Ming army has set up an ambush for a long time, it is now at a disadvantage.

There were more than 4 Ming troops in ambush, of which only Zhang Wanbang's headquarters had more than [-] people, and most of the rest were guard soldiers.

The fighting power of the guards is very psychedelic. When the wind is like this, they are like gods of war, but once they fall into a slight disadvantage, they may collapse instantly.

The army was defeated like a mountain, and once the guards collapsed, it would be easy to disperse Zhang Wanbang's elite headquarters and disrupt the original combat deployment.

Zhang Wanbang used his body as a bait to stay on the mountain to attract Dulong Sengge, and Xu Shouhui, the deputy commander, led the team.

Xu Shouhui looked around and frowned.

Since the Mongols had no defense at all, the losses of the Ming army are still very small, but the terrain is not good for infantry after all.

Once the Mongolian cavalry reacted, the blunderbuss teams on both sides of the official road were exposed to the eyes of the Mongols. Without any protection, they would inevitably suffer heavy losses, but at this time there was no way out.

Xu Shouhui climbed up and shouted: "It's time to serve the country, all soldiers, follow me to kill prisoners and make meritorious deeds!"

"The Zhentai is watching us from the mountain, we will use this battle to report victory to His Majesty!"

There were endless explosions, and the blunderbuss soldiers seemed to know that they were in an extremely dangerous situation, so they were all desperately casting. If they could put one more blunderbuss, they would make money.

As for the gap between the battalions of the Ming army, it became farther and farther away because of the melee. In order to cover the ambush, the hilltops were still firing desperately.

At this time, each battalion is actually fighting on its own, and it is too late for unified deployment and cannot be passed on to the generals.

The cannonballs and blunderbusses not only caused damage, but the sound was enough to shake the minds of the Mongols, or at least make their mounts disobedient and disturb them.

The Mongols had also reacted at this time, and shot back desperately.

The official roads and fields were filled with soldiers of the Ming army who had been shot by arrows, but because the morale of the army was still boiling, the whole team continued to attack and crowded at the foot of the mountain with the Mongols.

On the official road at the rear, countless Ming troops stretched all the way to the drinking horses by the river on both sides, and there were more and more unmanned mounts on the official road.

Nearly [-] troops from both sides mingled together at the foot of this narrow official road and Baideng Mountain. The fall or failure of Datong Town also depends on this size of land.

"Boom--"

There was another loud bang, and a cannonball arrived in no time, and fell into the river on the left side of the official road. Then the billowing water column shot up into the sky, and rushed onto the official road with mud. muddy.

But no one cared, these Ming soldiers frowned slightly, their movements did not stop in the slightest, they were still changing the medicine rapidly, and continued to shoot the Mongols with their guns.

The ambush became more and more chaotic, and it was not until Qu Jiazhen led the Guangchang Battalion to rush to Tumote's cavalry and shooting formation to hack and kill indiscriminately that it entered a stalemate.

There was panic shouting at the foot of the mountain, and panicked and galloping Mongols were everywhere on the official road. Even the guards around Dulong Sengge had to draw out their scimitars for close combat, and seldom had much skill to shoot with bows and arrows.

……

"Siege!"

Datong town.

The horns sounded again in the Mongolian battle formation below the city, and tens of thousands of soldiers marched slowly with rattan cards and scimitars.

A horn sounded, and in an instant, clusters of arrows rained out again from the cavalry and archery circles outside the city. The pitch-black night sky became even darker, and the shouts shook the sky like thunder.

A new round of offensive is about to strike, but the Ming army at the head of the city is already exhausted.

The war dead were horrific, the wounded wailed in pain, and the survivors were distraught and panicked. Despair once again spread uncontrollably throughout the city.

Even the brilliant flag with the word "Ming" written on it was tattered due to the Mongols' riding and shooting.

Shi Yongzhen knelt down on one knee, looking at the corpses all over the city, at this point, he also knew that this was the final attack.

He couldn't resist this attack any longer.

Shi Yongzhen looked in the direction of the capital from a distance, with despair in his voice, "Your Majesty, the last general is incompetent and unable to be loyal to the king. The town of Datong is in my hands and has been thrown to the Mongols!"

"The last general is incompetent, the last general is incompetent!!"

Just at this time, the Mongolian army advancing in full force was in chaos.

Many Ming soldiers who were defending the city gritted their teeth and stood up, looking far to the north, but saw the cavalry of Tumote's troops rushing towards this side like frightened birds.
