At the foot of Mount Daqing.
The 250,000 Tatar Cavalrymen all charged out.
Dayan Khan led his personal guards to take the lead. The other commanders followed their agreement and split up into different groups, rushing towards the campsite of the Great Ming army.
When he reached the foot of the mountain, Dayan Khan looked up at the summit. Hearing that the various tribes were ready, Dayan Khan's expression turned stern. He drew the saber at his waist and pointed the tip of the saber at the summit. He shouted,
"Attack and kill these wise people!”
After Dayan Khan gave the order, the surrounding Tartar cavalrymen were shocked.
It instantly turned into a surging torrent that surged towards the peak of the mountain.
The slower slope did not slow down the Ttar cavalry's advance.
Dayan Khan stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at the charging Ttar cavalrymen with a smug expression.
"After this battle, Great Ming will no longer have a Crown Prince. We will take advantage of the situation and follow the Heavenly Dao to take over the Central Plains!
Hahaha…"
Urus, who was standing at the side, frowned and looked at the top of the mountain when he saw his father's appearance. He said with a worried expression,
"Father, this Ming Crown Prince might be an idiot, but the handguns in his cavalry's hands are unusually sharp. Father, you must be careful!”
Dayan Khan, who had a smug look on his face, suddenly heard Urus 'words of advice. He frowned and glanced at Urus unhappily. He said coldly,
"So what if it's a firearm, do you think this king has never seen it before?
Let alone firearms, even the Hong Yi Cannon, this king has personally experienced it, but so what?
No matter which one it was, they were both average. They did not have accuracy, and their shooting speed was not as fast as a bow.
But what kind of war can have no casualties? Moreover, this king has prepared 250,000 troops to deal with a mere tens of thousands of Great Ming musketeers. How long can they last?”
Urus heard his father's words and was speechless for a moment. He actually felt that his father's words made sense.
Even so, Urus still wanted to remind him again.
However, it was too late. The vanguard of the charge was already close to the summit.
It was only fifty to sixty zhang away from where Great Ming had set up camp.
The Tatar cavalrymen at the front could already see the faces of the Great Ming soldiers.
Just as the Tartar cavalrymen were about to charge forward with a cold expression…
They suddenly realized that the Great Ming soldiers opposite them were actually calm, as if they had long been prepared.
What was going on?
The Tartar cavalrymen were puzzled.
Before he could figure out the reason, a sound began to ring in his ears.
Bang! Bang! Bang...
The sound of flintlocks began to ring out from the top of the mountain.
Dayan Khan and the tribal commanders, who were watching the battle at the foot of the mountain, also raised their heads to look at the hill after hearing the commotion.
In their line of sight.
As the sound of the musket rang out, the row of Tarist cavalrymen at the front immediately fell off their horses.
As for the Tartar cavalrymen behind them, because they were prepared, they directly placed the shields they had prepared in advance in front of them as defense.
Dayan Khan could not help but frown when he saw this scene. He berated the guard beside him.
"Why don't we give those warriors in the front row shields!”
The personal guard heard the question and stepped forward, cupping his fists in response.
"Reporting to Great Khan, because we have already learned that the enemy is equipped with firearms, before we left, I had already informed everyone to bring shields and charge.
As for them, this humble servant guessed that they either found it inconvenient to charge with a shield, or they didn't expect that this big Ming's musket would shoot so far, right?”
Dayan Khan frowned when he heard this explanation and looked up at the hill.
At this moment, the Tartar cavalry were still fifty to sixty zhang away from the summit. To be able to achieve such an effect at such a distance was already far beyond the power of bows and arrows.
It had to be known that it had only been slightly more than half a year since Dayan Khan's last invasion of Great Ming.
But in such a short period of time, Da Ming's handgun actually had such a change.
If they continued to develop at this speed for a few more years, wouldn't that mean…
Hiss!
Dayan Han couldn't help but gasp at the thought.
His gaze towards the Great Ming Army on the mountain peak also began to become solemn.
He was glad that he had prepared a shield and other items.
Otherwise, who knew how many Tartar disciples would die in this distance!
……
On the top of the mountain.
Zhu Houzhao looked at the battle in front of him indifferently. There was no expression on his cold face.
After the first wave of attacks, countless Tata cavalrymen fell off their horses.
However, the Tartar cavalrymen quickly reacted.
He raised the shield that was originally on the horse's back and placed it in front of him, continuing to charge toward the top of the mountain.
When Zhu Houzhao saw this scene from the top of the mountain, he could not help but reveal a cold smile. He muttered to himself,
"Is it useful?"
As expected.
In the eyes of the Tatar cavalrymen, the shield was like an amulet.
However, countless bullets still passed through the gaps in the shields and hit the bodies, legs, and horses of the Ttar cavalrymen.
As a result, although the shield had blocked the firepower of the Tiger Troop for a while, it still could not change the current situation of people getting shot and falling off their horses.
In less than an hour, the entire Great Green Mountain was littered with corpses and rivers of blood. The scene was like hell on earth.
Fresh blood flowed down the slope and down the mountain.
Nearly 30% of the Ttar cavalry had died, but they still hadn't reached the front of the Tiger Legion.
Dayan Khan and the tribal commanders standing at the foot of the mountain were no longer as calm as before.
The tribal commanders looked at the falling Ttar cavalrymen with terrified expressions. They would occasionally look at Dayan Khan, hoping that he would give the order to withdraw his troops and stop the casualties from continuing.
At this moment, Dayan Han's face was filled with fear. He looked at the mountain that seemed so far away that he couldn't reach it, and his grief and indignation grew. He silently hoped that a miracle would appear.
However, Dayan Khan, who had waited for a long time without seeing any signs of the Great Ming Musket weakening, could no longer allow the casualties to continue. He roared in humiliation,
"Retreat, all of you retreat!”
Hearing Dayan Han's roar, the guard beside him quickly took out his horn.
Not long after, the melodious sound of the horn began to echo in the mountains.
Zhu Houzhao, who was standing at the top of the mountain, heard the commotion and sneered.
"Trying to escape?
Did you ask me?"
