At the same time, on the battlefield not far away.
Ha Cizhang was also confused by the sudden interception.
Originally, after losing to Li Wenzhong, Ha Cizhang was prepared to bring the rest of the army back to Lin and meet up with Kuo Kuo.
However, he did not expect to bump into another group of Ming soldiers just as he escaped from the pursuit of the Ming army.
Moreover, this group of Ming soldiers seemed very strange. They were using war chariots.
Nearly 2,000 chariots lined up across the city, blocking their way.
At first, Ha Cizhang didn't care much.
Wasn't it just 2,000 chariots?
He had more than a hundred thousand men under him. If he were to deal with these two thousand chariots, wouldn't they be wiped out in minutes?
Ha Cizhang decisively gave the order. Tens of thousands of cavalrymen charged forward, ready to completely destroy this group of Ming soldiers blocking the way.
However, what happened next stunned him.
The Ming army's chariots began to turn around slowly and horizontally.
Two thousand chariots lined up in a long horizontal line.
It formed a wall that stretched for several miles.
Soon after, the Ming soldiers filed out of the chariots one after another.
In just a moment, there were tens of thousands of people.
These Ming soldiers did not gather in a large formation. Instead, they used the chariots as cover and drew their bows and arrows.
At the same time, muskets extended out from the holes in the carriages.
Just as tens of thousands of Yuan Army cavalry were about to reach the chariot…
The Ming army's crossbows and muskets rained down on the tens of thousands of Yuan Army cavalrymen.
After suffering a wave of attacks, the Yuan cavalry did not retreat. Instead, they continued to charge forward, preparing to break through the Ming army's chariot defense line in one go.
However, before they could rush over, the Ming army threw wooden sticks that were emitting white smoke at them.
Before the Yuan Dynasty cavalrymen could react, a series of explosions blasted them into a mess of flesh and blood.
Countless Yuan Army cavalrymen fell down one after another as if they were going through a thunderstorm.
Occasionally, a few dozen cavalrymen would charge through the thunderstorm area and finally reach the Ming army's war chariots. These war chariots would immediately stretch out their cold spears and stab through the cavalrymen and their horses.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, thousands of Yuan cavalrymen were lying dead in front of the Ming army chariots.
This sudden and terrifying scene immediately frightened the remaining Yuan Dynasty cavalrymen.
However, they did not dare to go forward, but the Ming army took the initiative to go forward.
The chariots began to turn around and charge at the Yuan army.
They were extremely fast, charging straight into the crowd of Yuan Dynasty cavalrymen who were already petrified.
The Ming army's chariots ran amok wherever they passed.
They could easily knock away countless Yuan cavalrymen, and there were even muskets firing from both sides of the chariot.
From time to time, a few wooden sticks that emitted white smoke were thrown out.
The Yuan cavalry didn't dare to get close to the chariot.
With the Ming archers and infantry already alighting from their vehicles, they began to approach the battlefield and kill the Chaotic Yuan Cavalry under the cover of each other.
In an instant, the tens of thousands of Yuanren cavalrymen were defeated.
Ha Cizhang could not believe his eyes as he watched his subordinates flee in panic.
His tens of thousands of troops, from charging to fleeing, the entire process took less than half a day.
More importantly, his tens of thousands of cavalrymen did not even injure a single hair of the Ming army.
On the other hand, his side had lost at least 20,000 men.
What kind of concept was this?
Even when they fought with Feng Sheng and Li Wenzhong, they didn't lose so much!
Ha Cizhang had started to doubt his life after this battle.
Compared to Ha Cizhang, Lu Heng was so excited that his blood was boiling!
"Awesome! It was too satisfying! This was war! This was killing the enemy! This is my invincible attitude!”
At this moment, Lu Heng felt that the first half of his life had been in vain.
This was the first time he experienced the true thrill of killing an enemy.
From the start of the battle until now, the entire process had been smooth and smooth. They had basically suppressed the Yuan people and had not suffered any losses at all.
Lu Heng had never experienced such a crushing feeling before.
Looking at Lu Heng who was clamoring beside him, Zhu Rong silently rolled his eyes at him.
He felt as if he, Lu Heng, had contributed to this battle.
"Alright, stop shouting. Get ready to advance! We were lucky. Looking at the number of people in this group, they were most likely the ones who surrounded Li Wenzhong.”
"Looking at their disorderly march, it seems like they just experienced a defeat. Feng Sheng's reinforcements should have rushed over and forced them back.”
"This group of Yuan Dynasty cultivators is in bad shape, and they just happened to bump into us who rushed over to support them.”
"A team that has no fighting spirit is naturally easy to fight.”
"But you're happy. Do you know how many grenades we used just now?”
"We only got 20,000 in total, which is half of what we got. Do you think these grenades are free?”
Lu Heng scratched his head and smiled, not daring to refute.
He had been too engrossed in his joy just now and had forgotten to remind his soldiers to use grenades sparingly.
However, Lu Heng admired Zhu Rong even more.
Not only did he create a tank that could allow Bu Zu to gallop across the grasslands, but he also created such a powerful grenade.
This Prince Zhou was truly extraordinary!
Of course, Lu Heng didn't dare to neglect Zhu Xiong's orders.
The current Zhu Xi was like an ancestor in Lu Heng's eyes.
As long as he could build a good relationship with Zhu Rong, he might be able to reach a higher level in the future.
Following Lu Heng's orders, the 60,000 Ming soldiers under his command continued to advance in an orderly manner towards the Yuan army.
With the 2,000 chariots as support, Lu Heng's army could attack and defend. Not only could they use infantry tactics to their fullest, but they could also use the 2,000 chariots to launch mobile attacks against the enemy.
Coupled with the grenade as a deterrent, the hundred thousand Yuan army was forced to retreat.
Ha Cizhang was burning with anxiety. He had never expected that his hundred thousand cavalry would be defeated by tens of thousands of Ming infantry in such a way.
The main point was that if he could not defeat the Ming army in front of him, he would not be able to lead the army back to Lin and join forces with the expansion.
However, the few times he organized his army to attack, they were all easily defeated by the Ming army.
As time dragged on, Ha Cizhang felt his insides burning.
If they continued to drag this out, once Feng Sheng and Li Wenzhong's elite cavalry arrived, they would really be finished.
Just as Ha Cizhang's anxious thoughts flashed through his mind.
A guard beside him exclaimed,
"Grand Preceptor, the Ming army is coming!”
"What?"
Ha Cizhang immediately looked behind him.
Not far behind him, the sound of galloping horses could be heard.
Tens of thousands of elite Ming cavalry had already appeared behind them and were rushing toward the battlefield.
Seeing this scene, Ha Zizhang felt dizzy. There was only one voice left in his heart:
"We're finished!"
