Zhao Lie used his binoculars to observe the movements of several enemy chiefs on the opposite side, and even saw their hesitation in his heart.
He was extremely impatient.
He was eager to rush to Gu'an to inquire about the situation of the slave-building army ahead and the whereabouts of Francisco.
However, no matter how bad the Mongolians on the opposite side were, they were only cavalry with one man and two horses.
Their mobility could not be competed by the troops.
He had to wait for the opponent to attack as a whole team.
In order to hurt the Mongols, he ordered the Mongols to get closer.
One thousand five hundred Mongolian cavalrymen in fur hats and fur robes began to urge their horses to trot.
The galloping distance of the Mongolian horses was not too long, that is, two miles.
In order to maintain the impact of the horses when they rushed into the enemy's formation, the Mongols first trotted Then march from two miles away.
When the Mongols arrived a little over a mile away, they whistled and urged their horses to charge at full speed.
The sound of horse hooves was deafening, the frozen earth trembled, and a dust belt more than two hundred paces wide quickly moved towards the Polu army.
Zhao Lie was now sure that the Mongols, who had always been good at escaping, could only move forward.
After all, more than a thousand war horses galloping at full speed were not easy to stop.
Liu Fugui was fully clothed in iron armor, iron skirt, and leggings.
He held a spear in his hand and a sword across his waist.
His face was serious, and he looked very much like a middle-level general like General Bai.
Amidst the noise, he looked around at his subordinates and found that some of the new soldiers' faces were pale, nervously looking at the approaching enemy soldiers, and the spears standing on the ground in their hands were shaking slightly.
"Hold on, they can't rush through the Lancers.
Hold on."
Liu Fugui shouted.
As the chief executive, it is now his duty to appease his subordinates.
Wei Qiang, the Xuanfu officer, also shouted loudly to encourage the soldiers.
After all, it was the first time for the veteran soldiers to encounter the impact of thousands of cavalry.
This overwhelming force was breathtaking.
"Load."
The fire gun soldiers in the front row began to move amidst the shaking of the earth and the thunderous sound of horse hooves.
The strict training allowed most of them to finish loading quickly.
Only a few people were in a hurry because of the enemy's power. , he was immediately reprimanded by the chief and the governor, and he immediately started over.
When the cavalry approached to 120 steps, copper trumpets and suonas sounded in the formation of the Polu army.
At the command of the generals, the first row of gunmen opened fire.
Amidst the banging cross talk, a cloud of smoke rose up from the nearly 200-meter front line, and was instantly blown by the strong northwest wind to the rear of the Polu army.
The explosive shot out three hundred lead bullets, and the effect was reflected on the Mongolians a hundred steps away.
More than a hundred men and horses fell to the ground, and some horses were stimulated by the gunshots and jumped up, causing the surrounding horses to also suffer.
It would be a disaster, or they would collide and fall to the ground.
Either they ran diagonally to avoid it, and the impact formation began to become chaotic.
At this time, the soldiers in the first row retreated into the formation, and the gunmen in the second row fired on the spot.
More than a hundred cavalry fell to the ground.
The Mongolian cavalry did not stop because they had been entangled with the Ming border troops for a long time.
They knew that they could only escape and ascend to heaven after being hit by the fire gunners.
Once they rushed into the enemy's formation, most of the Ming army would collapse.
More than a thousand Mongolians opened their bows and fired arrows, and the rain of arrows roared towards the Polu army.
The fire rifle soldiers in front of them took most of it.
However, the soldiers of the Polu Army were all covered in armor.
Except for a few unlucky soldiers who were penetrated through the gaps in the armor and fell to the ground screaming, the other soldiers in the third row were wearing armor.

The feather arrows continued to fire and continued to bleed the Mongols.
Only a thousand Mongolians were left and released the second batch of feather arrows.
At this moment, a roaring sound was heard, a large plume of thick smoke filled the air, and twenty cannons fired nearly a thousand small iron eggs.
Arriving in front of the Mongolian cavalry in an instant, more than 100 Mongolian cavalrymen and horses in the first row, more than 40 steps away, threw themselves on the ground.
Large areas of blood spattered, and some horses were torn apart by projectiles.
Many war horses were frightened by the roar of artillery at close range and jumped wildly.
Throwing the rider into the air, he staged a thrilling cowboy show that, in Zhao Lie's opinion, was like the North American Bull Riding Competition in later generations.
At this time, the Mongolian cavalry was in a mess, and the fallen men and horses in front became a living barrier.
In particular, some injured and moving horses knocked down the men and horses behind.
Only a small number of cavalry rushed in, and what greeted them was the first.
Four rows of gunmen fired bullets.
In the end, only more than a hundred cavalry rushed to the front of the Polu army formation.
At this time, the artillery and musketeers had just retreated into the formation.
The pikemen laid down their long spears, which were one and a half feet long.
This kind of firecrackers retreat into the formation one after another after being fired.
The pikemen's formations of standing still and leveling their spears are designed to deal with the cavalry.
The rapid advancement of the cavalry will not cause the firecrackers and pikemen in the infantry formation to alternately change their formations.
Chance.
"Ping Qiang, hold on, hold on."
Liu Fugui shouted.
All the leaders in the team were shouting like this, stabilizing the formation, waiting for the impact of the approaching horses.
More than a dozen war horses struggled to rush to the forest of guns.
They tried hard to stop.
The cold light in front of them made the war horses disobey their master's orders and just wanted to escape.
Unfortunately, they were too fast and couldn't help but bump into them.
They were immediately skewered.
There was a long and shrill hiss from the spear.
The other war horses or their riders tightened their reins or ran around the gun array on their own, never getting close to the gun array where they felt they were in danger.
The spear in Wu Han's hand came with great force, and the dying horse struggled to push him and the other two soldiers back a few steps and fell to the ground.
The Mongolian horse fell off his horse and was pierced by a spear before he could get up.
Most of the Mongolians finally reined in their horses in front of the spear formation.
They had no intention of fighting anymore and ran away.
Only less than a thousand Mongolians were left.
They collapsed and fled one after another.
The horn of retreat sounded in the Mongolian army formation behind.
The three Taijis were distraught at the heavy losses and retreated without asking Uliji for instructions.
At this time, three quick brass horns sounded, and the Polu cavalry on both wings began to urge their horses forward to pursue the enemy.
After twenty steps, their horses quickly picked up and chased the Mongolian cavalry head to tail.
It is said that the Polu Army cavalry rushed out from both sides of the formation, and the distance was much farther than the Mongolians who retreated in a straight line.
However, there were dead and injured people everywhere from the front of the Polu Army formation to a distance of more than a hundred steps.
So the Mongols' retreat became an obstacle course.
They were constantly avoiding obstacles.
Even the Mongols, who grew up on horses, could not outrun their horses.
The Polu cavalry entered from the outside and did not enter the obstacle at all. , and soon caught up with the retreating Mongols.
Especially the Shidao horses on the right wing.

They carried their riders into the Mongolian rear team at lightning speed.
The lances in the hands of the Polu cavalry began to show their power, harvesting the lives of the enemies.
Wang Haizhou condescendingly thrust the lance in his hand from behind into the back of a Mongolian who was fleeing in front.
The Mongolian screamed and pulled the lance with both hands and fell off his horse.
Wang Haizhou drew out his Yan Ling Dao and continued to charge forward.
The brown Shidao horse under its crotch was still accelerating, bearing the weight of the iron-clad Wang Haizhou and the leather armor on its body.
The fast-paced sprint made Wang Haizhou feel the power exploded by the mount.
This horse sprinted with great energy, but the Mongolian horse just couldn't compare. ah.
Wang Haizhou sighed secretly.
After more than ten steps, he caught up with a Mongolian.
At this time, the Mongolian skillfully twisted his body on his horse and used his saber to chop at Wang Haizhou who was approaching from behind.
Wang Haizhou used the Yanling knife to block, and with a clang, the two knives swung away.
At this time, a Yanling knife struck the Mongolian man's neck fiercely, almost cutting off the Mongolian man's head and neck.
The Mongolian fell down and dismounted without making a sound.
Wang Haizhou grinned, "Damn it, I can't even enjoy myself, it's so troublesome."
The one who cut down the Mongols was one of his bodyguards.
Mr.
Qian always had a bodyguard.
After all, Mr.
Qian was already one of the most high-ranking generals in the Polu Army.
However, even with the cavalry galloping on the battlefield, the bodyguards could not be 100% accurate.
The guards were well guarded, and this was the scene where King Haizhou quickly killed the Mongols.
However, it would be remiss if the guards did not arrive.
Wang Haizhou glared at the guard fiercely, and immediately cursed, "Damn, I forgot to wear a mask, who are you staring at?
I don't know whether to laugh or cry."
The Polu cavalry on the right wing had already killed all the Mongolian cavalry on the right, and then the cavalry on the left caught up with the enemy.
The remaining Mongolian cavalry was flanked by the pursuers on the left and right sides, and was quickly defeated.
Batu's eyes were blood red.
These are all his tribesmen.
This is the foundation for his foothold in Horqin.
Why do the Mongolian people call him Taiji when they meet?
It's because he has many tribesmen under his command.
He has good fighting ability, but this has destroyed his foundation.
He urged his horse and stepped forward to meet the enemy.
The close relatives of the clan around him hurriedly intercepted him.
As a joke, the enemy took advantage of the victory and pursued him, with thousands of infantry following him.
Facing the enemy at this time is a narrow escape.
"Master Taiji, Su De, Su He, and Ulji Taiji have all run away.
We can't fight alone.
There are still our tribes on the grassland waiting for us to return."
Qimuge, a close friend of his men, shouted.
Batu looked around, well, Su He, Su De, Ulji and others were urging their horses to flee towards the northwest, completely ignoring the clansmen who stayed on the battlefield.
Batu couldn't help but yelled, they are all fucking cowards. , thanks to the fact that they usually claim to be the descendants of Genghis Khan.
He looked bitterly at the approaching Ming cavalry from a mile away, gritted his teeth, turned his horse's head, whipped his mount hard, and led the remaining 500 tribesmen to evacuate quickly.
When the remaining three or four hundred Mongolian cavalry saw the large group leaving, they immediately lost their fighting spirit.

The horses were already frothing at the mouth after galloping for more than a mile and running back for more than a mile, struggling to hold on.
On the way to retreat, the Polu cavalry had begun to close their retreat.
Without the support of the brigade, there was no need to fight.
Even if they continued to run, their mounts would be exhausted, and their spare horses were all at the starting point.
Some people kept dismounting and surrendering.
Finally, hundreds of people dismounted and knelt on the ground, which saved the Polu cavalry a lot of energy.
The Polu army did not continue to pursue the fleeing enemy troops.
After all, the enemy's horses had just started, but they pursued them at full speed for a distance of two miles, and their horses were exhausted.
Zhao Lie was not surprised by the defeat of the Mongols.
The Mongols, who were not controlled by strict military discipline like Jiannu, were more like horse bandits.
They had no ability to attack difficulties and could only follow Jiannu to fight, a jackal next to a tiger.
That’s all.
However, Zhao Lie was still very satisfied with this battle.
It allowed the Polu army to experience the test of a large number of cavalry charging for the first time, and they survived it, which was of great benefit to the future battles with the Jiannu cavalry.
The troops began to move forward and merged with the cavalry.
After all, it was more convenient for the cavalry to receive prisoners of war.
A Mongolian cavalryman's robe was covered with blood.
He had been hit by a bullet in the chest, and blood was foaming out.
He was sitting leaning on a dead horse, covering the wound with his hands, and watching the Ming army soldiers approaching, he Desperately, he saw a spear stabbing him.
He was unable to move and died instantly.
Liu Fugui pulled out his spear and wiped blood on the man's leather robe.
"We've all figured it out, President Qian has ordered that no one who is injured should be spared."
Liu Fugui shouted loudly.
If you don't have the energy to treat the enemy on this battlefield, if he is not dead, then you can only send him to bliss as soon as possible.
The brothers below responded unevenly.
Many recruits still couldn't bear it.
After all, they were still living people.
However, due to military discipline, they still killed them
