Outside the mouth of the Three Gorge!
After the retreat horn sounded, cavalrymen began to rush out of the white fog formed by the smoke.
The grassland cavalrymen who rushed out were all in a sorry state. Their faces were filled with fear, as if they had encountered something terrifying.
Mahamu was even more in disbelief and cried out,
"How is that possible? Why are there only so few people left?"
His nearly 100,000 cavalry charged into the mouth of the Three Gorge, but less than half of them had retreated.
In other words, more than 50,000 cavalrymen had died in that short period of time.
This was simply challenging Mahamu's understanding!
What kind of army was this!
Mahamu's heart ached even more at this moment. That was 50,000 cavalry!
One had to know that they had never suffered such heavy losses before, even under the Red Cannons of the Ming army.
"Retreat! Quickly retreat! Retreat!"
Mahamu did not hesitate and immediately gave the order to retreat.
He knew that he had been too careless this time. He had underestimated these 100,000 Dragon Cavalry soldiers.
If he had known that the 100,000 Dragon Cavalry soldiers possessed such terrifying firearms, he would never have ambushed them in such a manner.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Horseshoes were rolling in the mouth of the Three Gorge!
The hooves of the horses caused the entire ground to tremble.
Mahamu's expression was extremely ugly. He knew that the Dragon Cavalry Army was pursuing them!
"Let's go!"
Mahamu turned his horse around and prepared to retreat.
"Bang bang bang!"
Gunshots were heard.
Mahamu suddenly felt a pain in his shoulder, and his body lost its balance, falling off the horse.
Yexian's eyes were about to pop out as he shouted,"
"Father!"
He quickly dismounted and ran to Mahamu's side.
Mahamu's personal guards also dismounted and quickly protected Mahamu.
At this moment, Mahamu's face was extremely pale. There was a deep bloody hole on his right shoulder. Blood was flowing out and dying half of his armor red.
"Father, how are you?"
Yexian looked terrified.
Mahamu looked at Yexian and said with difficulty,"
"Let's go! Let's go! Don't worry about me. Remember, you are now the Great Khan of our Wala tribe. If you can fight this war, then fight. If you can't, then take your people and escape to the west. There is an empire over there that is as strong as the Ming Dynasty. The person who built this empire has the same bloodline as us. Find him and tell him that this is his home. It is time for him to return and restore the glory of his ancestors!”
Yexian's eyes were bloodshot as he shook his head desperately.
"No, father, I won't leave. If I want to leave, we will leave together. Even if I die, I want to die together with father!”
"Pa!"
A loud and clear slap landed on Ye Xian's face.
Mahamu said angrily,"
"Go, leave immediately. Do you want my Wala clan to be exterminated?”
"Father!"
"Let's go!"
Facing Mahamu's determination, Yexian's eyes were filled with tears. He looked deeply at Mahamu and suddenly stood up, shouting,"
"Let's go!"
With that, he mounted his horse and left without looking back.
Seeing that he had also left, Mahamu finally heaved a sigh of relief. His body went limp and he lay on the ground.
Around him, a dozen personal guards didn't leave with him. Instead, they stood in front of Mahamu loyally. Their faces were firm, and their eyes were filled with determination.
As the horse hooves approached, the Dragon Cavalry charged out of the mouth of the gorge like a flood.
Zhu Zhanyong's warhorse was at the forefront. However, when he saw Mahamu and his personal guards, he slowed down and rode towards Mahamu.
Bang bang bang!
After a series of gunshots, the personal guards in front of Mahamu fell into a pool of blood, leaving Mahamu alone to face everything around him with difficulty.
Zhu Zhanyong slowly came in front of Ma Hamu, looked down at him, and said with a smile,"
"Mahamu? Wala Khan?"
Ma Hamu looked at Zhu Zhanyong coldly and said,"
"Yue King Zhu Zhanyong!"
Zhu Zhanyong grinned.
"You're quite clear about it. Tsk tsk tsk, how did the mighty Great Khan of Wala become so pathetic? I heard that you're quite cunning. You've been a horsekeeper in my Great Ming for ten years and have even learned my Great Ming's combat techniques. But it doesn't seem to be of much use."
Mahamu sneered,"
"Useless? A small Three Gorge mouth, your Ming Dynasty's hundreds of thousands of troops fought for a few months but still couldn't take it down, even your artillery positions were lost here. You say it's useless, then tell me, what is considered useful?”
Zhu Zhanyong shook his head slightly and said,
"That's because my old man is too rigid. If it were me, even if you learned Da Ming's tactics, I could think of a thousand ways to play you to death.”
"You are boasting shamelessly. You are only relying on the power of the red cannons and firearms. If we were to fight openly, would your Great Ming army be a match for my Wala Cavalry?”
Mahamu sneered.
Zhu Zhanyong looked at Mahamu as if he was looking at an idiot and asked,"
"I want to ask you a question. When you Wala people fight with others, do you use your hands or knives?”
"Naturally, I'll use a saber."
Mahamu frowned.
"Is that knife a tool?"
"Naturally."
"Are the Red Cannons and muskets tools?”
"Naturally…Hmm? What do you mean?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you seem to have some ability. Why are you so stupid? Since they were all tools, you used knives and I used cannons. Everyone fought with their own abilities. They all used tools. How could it not be an open knife and open spear? If you lose, blame us for having cannons. Why don't you want to? Why don't you have cannons?”
Mahamu was rendered speechless and could not say a word for a long time.
"Alright, I won't waste time with you. Take her away and hand her over to the emperor!”
After Zhu Zhanyong said this, he no longer paid attention to Mahamu and said loudly,
"Dragon Riders! Full speed pursuit!"
