Fifteen miles north of Helin, where the central army is located.
At this moment, Expander was looking in Lin's direction with a calm expression.
Beside him, General He Zongzhe looked at him and asked hesitantly,"
"Your Majesty, are we really going to retreat at dawn?”
Expanse sighed.
"We can only choose to retreat now. After tonight, if we don't leave, it will be difficult for us to leave the city.”
"Ha Cizhang's defeat has already told us a clear message. The Ming army's reinforcements are coming.”
"You heard Ha Cizhang's statement. You should know that the Ming army has at least three reinforcements arriving at Helin.”
"Feng Sheng, Li Wenzhong, and the unknown Ming army reinforcements mean that at least a hundred thousand Ming soldiers are rushing towards Lin.”
"Once they meet up with Xu Da, their forces will exceed two hundred thousand at least, and more than a hundred thousand of them will be Great Ming's elite cavalry. Do you think that under such circumstances, we will be able to stay?”
He Zongzhe was silent for a while before saying,
"Then where should we retreat to? Are you going to meet His Majesty?"
Kuo Kuo shook his head.
"No, we must attract the attention of the Ming army. We must not meet up with His Majesty, so we will head west.”
He Zongzhe was stunned.
"West? Don't lose the Bali Khaganate?"
Expander shook his head slightly."
"No, I'm talking about the northwest of the Ming Dynasty. For a long time to come, we only have one thing to do, and that is to cause trouble for the Ming court.”
"We want the Ming court to fear us but be unable to eradicate us.”
"Because we need to buy time for His Majesty, although I don't know how long this time will be.”
He Zongzhe immediately understood the meaning of the expansion, but he said with some hesitation,
"Then are we really going to leave the princess and the princess alone?”
Kuo Kuo smiled bitterly,"
"Let's take care of ourselves first. They can only leave it to fate.”
He Zongzhe was silent.
At this moment, a bodyguard quickly ran up to the two of them.
"Great King! Ten miles to the south of us, a Ming army chariot team suddenly appeared. They are charging towards our central army at an extremely fast speed.”
Kuo Kuo and He Zongzhe were shocked.
"The Ming army reinforcements have arrived so quickly?”
He Zongzhe was a little shocked.
Expanse's face darkened."
"Other than this chariot team, did you notice any other Ming soldiers?”
The guard shook his head.
"We haven't found any other Ming soldiers yet."
Kuo Kuo looked at He Zongzhe and said in a deep voice,"
"Lead a group of people to stop this Ming army. At the same time, tell the people attacking Lin Lin to withdraw.”
"Looks like it's time to retreat!"
He Zongzhe cupped his fists solemnly.
"I accept your orders!"
……
At the same time, the two thousand chariots led by Zhu Xiong and Lu Heng were charging straight toward the center of the army.
However, when the chariot team was less than five miles away from the central army, a force of about 20,000 Yuan cavalrymen came to intercept them.
On the war chariot, Lu Heng looked at the 20,000 Yuan cavalry charging at him and turned to Zhu Rong.
"Your Highness, the Yuan people have sent at least 20,000 cavalry to intercept us.”
"Are we going to deal with this cavalry first or what?”
When Zhu Rong heard this, his eyes turned cold and he said,"
"Ignore them. We only have one goal in this battle.”
"If anyone else dares to get close, use your handguns and grenades!”
Lu Heng understood.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Thus, the 2000 chariots did not change their formation and continued to charge towards the middle army.
The 20,000 cavalrymen led by He Zongzhe were just about to intercept the chariot team when they discovered that countless wooden sticks emitting white smoke were suddenly thrown out from the enemy's chariots.
He Zongzhe's pupils constricted and he subconsciously shouted,"
"Disperse! Disperse!"
He had heard from Ha Cizhang that these smoking wooden sticks could explode, and their lethality was shocking.
However, even though he had given the order, he still underestimated the power of the grenade.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Following a series of shocking explosions, countless cavalrymen from He Zongzhe's troops were still affected by the explosions, and they were thrown off their horses.
There were even countless warhorses that were frightened by the deafening sound of the grenades.
In an instant, the 20,000 cavalrymen under He Zongzhe's command were in a little chaos.
However, they were still elite cavalry under Kuo Kuo's command, so they quickly calmed down.
However, when they calmed down, Zhu Xiong's 2,000 war chariots had easily broken through their blockade and continued to attack the central army.
He Zongzhe was shocked and angry, and led the army to pursue.
However, as soon as the Ming army on the chariot noticed them approaching, they would fire grenades without a word, preventing He Zongzhe's troops from approaching at all.
At this moment, Kuo Kuo, who was in the middle of the army, naturally noticed that something was wrong. His expression darkened and he immediately ordered,
"Stop them. We can't let them get close to the central army.”
For some reason, when he saw the approaching chariot team, his eyelids twitched.
He had a feeling that something bad would happen if this chariot troop got close to the central army.
Thus, he decisively ordered the central army to mobilize 10,000 troops to stop them.
However, he had never expected that this chariot team of only about 2,000 soldiers would be so stubborn.
He actually crashed into his 10,000 cavalrymen.
What happened next left the expansion dumbstruck.
His 10,000 cavalrymen were torn apart by the chariot team like paper.
More importantly, countless handguns suddenly shot out from the carriages on both sides of these chariots, followed by the sound of dense handguns firing.
The 10,000 cavalrymen in the middle fell off their horses like wheat being cut.
The 2,000 chariots of the Ming army went on a rampage, tearing the cavalry in half.
Then, he charged into the middle of his army.
Seeing this situation, even with his calmness, his expression couldn't help but change.
He could tell that this chariot team was specially made to restrain cavalry.
Whether it was the young cavalrymen or the chariot team, they were helpless.
Seeing the chariot team charging straight towards his royal flag, the guards beside him immediately shouted,
"Protect His Highness!"
Countless personal guards began to layer upon layer to protect the expansion.
However, the expansion did not feel at ease at all. Instead, it shouted,
"Retreat! Retreat!"
With that, he turned his horse around and was about to escape.
However, it was already too late.
The two thousand chariots charged forward, easily smashing the guards into pieces.
Then, countless chariots quickly surrounded the expansion.
It quickly formed a circle, trapping the expansion in the center.
In the next moment, countless Ming soldiers jumped down from the chariots surrounding the expansion. These soldiers raised their bows and guns and aimed them at the expansion.
At this moment, Expander felt his head buzzing.
"Am I, Kuokuo Timur, going to die here today?”
However, even though he was in a desperate situation, he did not have the slightest intention of compromising. He decisively drew his saber and was about to rush out of the encirclement.
He would never be willing to be captured alive by the Ming army.
However, before he could ride his horse out of the encirclement, seven or eight horse locks were accurately placed on his body, binding him tightly.
With a strong force, Kuo Kuo was dragged off his horse.
Immediately after, seven or eight blades were already placed on his neck.
Expanse Kuo's eyes were about to pop out, and he was about to make a final gamble.
It was also at this moment that a large hand slashed at Kuo Kuo's neck.
Kuo Kuo felt his vision turn black and he fainted.
A famous general of Northern Yuan was captured alive just like that!
