Taiji, who was led by the Tatars, was directly killed by a fire cannon, and the remaining Tatars scattered before the cavalry of the Legislative Army could turn their horses.

The cavalry commander kept in mind the lessons learned during the exercise and did not pursue the fleeing Tatars. He continued to perform the original combat mission.

At this time, the commander standing on the vehicle-mounted watchtower noticed that the last strength of the Tatar cavalry had been defeated, and immediately ordered the artillery to reload with shotguns and fire at close range, and ordered the cavalry to start closing their pockets, trying to annihilate the remaining Tatar cavalry.

After receiving the order, the cavalry troops quickly closed their pockets. The Tatars in the encirclement, under siege from all sides, only lasted less than ten minutes before surrendering.

Although there was no report from the reconnaissance force that there were Tatar cavalry nearby, but just in case, the commander ordered a quick sweep, and all the prisoners were executed after disarming them.

In this battle, the advance team of less than 3,000 people killed more than 3,000 Tatar cavalry and captured more than 2,000 war horses. The own losses were less than 100 people.

Achieving such results is inseparable from daily training and exercises.

The formation used was also the formation commonly used by frontier armies fighting Tatars, except that the archers and spearmen were replaced by line infantry.

Coupled with the legislative army and its emphasis on officer training, the proportion of non-commissioned officers in a regiment can reach one-third, so that the defensive counterattack can be completed so smoothly.

After this battle, King Shunyi of Guihua City no longer dared to send a lone army deep into the Hetao. It also gave King Shunyi a new understanding of the combat power of the Legislative Army, and he wavered on whether to attack the Hetao after the autumn.
