Seeing the friendly troops disintegrating and fleeing back, the more than 4,000 people who came ashore were so frightened that they turned and fled together.

The 1,200 dragoons finally became cavalry. They carried swords and kept chasing and slashing. They chased more than 8,000 enemy troops.

After Zhang Tieniu's main force regrouped, they immediately stood in formation on the river bank.

The fire gun soldiers stood near the river and aimed at the pontoon bridge to shoot from a long distance. The melee soldiers protected the perimeter to prevent enemy cavalry from attacking.

"Bang bang bang bang!"

Because the shooting distance was too far, not many enemy troops on the pontoon were hit.

However, their friendly infantry that had already crossed the river broke up, and they were still halfway across the river. After being shot at, they were so frightened that they ran back along the pontoon bridge.

The pontoon bridge was already narrow and rickety, and a large number of enemy troops fell into the river during the chaotic pushing and shoving.

There were several pontoon bridges in the distance. Although they were not shot at, they were still frightened and ran back. A large number of soldiers were also pushed into the river.

There were many landlubbers in the north, and the number of enemy soldiers drowned far exceeded those killed by the Datong army.

At this time, Li Dingguo finally arrived with 10,000 elite troops, but Fei Ruhe's reinforcements were still a mile away. There were no reinforcements. Li Dingguo and Fei Ruhe were both here to watch the show.

However, what Fei Ruhe saw was a good show, while Li Dingguo witnessed a tragedy.

In fact, as long as Ai Nengqi's river-crossing troops can persist on the shore for another half hour, they can protect the entire army from crossing the river, and Li Dingguo's elite reinforcements can also cross the river.

But he only lasted ten minutes!

Ai Nengqi was shot in the arm and was captured by Lu Xiangsheng's cavalry. After he became a prisoner, he was still confused. How could he collapse when his own army of tens of thousands was charging?

In this battle across the river, Li Dingguo lost more than 18,000 infantry.

Li Dingguo planned everything. He divided his troops to fill the river, built a bridge, and let the cavalry march back and forth to sneak across. He successfully mobilized the troops of Fei Ruhe, Zhang Tieniu, and Huang Shun, which confused the three of them. In the end, they looked for an opportunity to cross the river, but they were still halfway across.

And strike.

It wasn't that there was a problem with the command, but Li Dingguo's command ability was inferior to Fei Ruhe and other generals of the Datong Army.

Tactical crushing, military quality crushing!
