Chapter 250: The arrival of Udamu
"Open the fire..."
"Bang bang bang..."
"Hahaha……"
Listening to the gunshots sounded in front of him, Buhe was startled and then laughed: "Are these Ming troops crazy? They opened fire at such a distance? Are they giving themselves courage?"
But their laughter soon came to an abrupt end. They could see clearly that with the dull gunshots, the more than a dozen Mongolian cavalrymen who had just rushed towards the servants' brigade, fell from their horses with the gunshots.
"What's going on?"
"how so?"
Buhe Chaolu and Barhu were like ducks strangled by their necks. The sound came to an abrupt end. Barhu rubbed his eyes hard and opened his mouth wide.
Before they could speak, the second row of gunfire sounded again. As the gunfire sounded, another row of Mongolian cavalry fell off the horse, and there were more than 20 cavalrymen who were dropped this time.
"No, the Ming army's muskets are strange!" Buhe shuddered at Lu, and his voice changed so much that he quickly yelled at the messenger behind him, "Hurry... blow the trumpet and let them retreat!"
"Woo...woo..."
In fact, when the second row of gunfire sounded, the Mongolian soldiers who were charging were already shocked. The Mongolian soldiers who were shot did not understand why the distance between the two sides was so far, and why the opponent's muskets could accurately hit them. In the eyes of many people, such firearms were almost a miracle.
Therefore, when the sound of the desolate horns resounded in the air, the Mongolian soldiers who had already scared were already frightened and immediately turned their horses and ran to the back desperately. But how could Song Ye and others let them leave so easily? With the sound of three rows of gunfires, the Mongolian soldiers who were turning their horses fell off the horses one after another. After the five rounds of gunfires were released, the more than 100 Mongolian cavalry who were originally responsible for the bait mission ran back less than 30.
Compared with Buhe Chaolu and Barhu, as the person involved, Song Ye frowned first, then stretched out again. He looked carefully, and after everyone had finished loading, he pulled out his long sword and pointed at the sky and shouted loudly: "Everyone has it, step forward slowly!"
Among all the Mongolian cavalry's stock hikes, five hundred clans lined up in five rows and began to slowly force the Mongolian cavalry in front. They were not afraid of the Mongolian cavalry, but instead, the Mongolian cavalry, which was several times more numerous than theirs, showed signs of chaos.
"Buh Chaolu, what should we do?" Looking at the Jiangning Army who was slowly approaching, Barhu didn't know what to do for a moment? The volleyball rounds just now really shocked him. He never dreamed that the Ming army's musket could hit so far. Three hundred steps, was Changshengtian asleep today? So much so that such a demon was released?
Buhe changed his face several times, and finally he sighed: "Let the warriors retreat. The Ming army's firearms are too fierce. If we fight hard, we will definitely suffer a big loss."
Barhu hesitated: "But... Udamu would definitely be furious if he knew about it."
"So what?" Buhe looked at Barhu at Ru and said angrily: "You are not crazy, Udamu just asked us to hold back the Ming army, and did not let us fight with them. You don't think about it. We are fighting with the Ming army here. If the losses are too big, will their Tukhan tribe compensate us for our losses? If you really want to attack, you will take the people from the Chechen Khan tribe yourself, and our Zakhan tribe will not be with you."
Barhu rolled his eyes, do you think I look like an idiot?
After unifying the opinions, the two immediately ordered the troops to get a distance from the Ming army. Although the quality and combat effectiveness of the Mongolian army today have declined significantly compared with the Mongolian army in the Kublai Khan era three or four hundred years ago, they are not stupid. After seeing the Ming army's firearm with a very long range, they will still stay in place as the target of the Ming army. After hearing the order, they all began to widen the distance with the Ming army.
Seeing that the Mongolian soldiers had left their contact with him one by one, Song Ye also stopped and a chief asked: "Boss, what should we do now? Should we continue chasing you?"
"I won't chase after you." Song Ye shook his head, "We have too few people, and the Mongolians are not vegetarians. If you force them too much, it will be bad."
Song Ye also had his own concerns. The wave just now was enough to shock the Mongols and had achieved the deterrence effect. Moreover, the number of Mongolian troops was more than ten times that of theirs. If they really wanted to force the Mongols to get angry, they would surround them regardless of casualties. At that time, they would pretend to be stupid. That would be bad.
"Let's go back."
As soon as Song Ye finished speaking, he heard waves of horns coming from afar, and then he heard cheers from the Mongolian army camps around him.
"The reinforcements from the Mongolian Tartars are here."
Yang Feng on Wuming Mountain put down his telescope and looked at the dust and figures rising in the distance, with a look of contemplation on his face.
Then he turned to the messenger beside him and said, "Blow the trumpet, let Song Ye and the others seize the time to clean the battlefield and come back immediately."
"clear!"
When Udam led more than 6,000 Mongolian cavalry to the vicinity of Wuming Mountain, Buhe Chaolu and Barhu rushed to meet him.
Udam glanced around Fujin, and saw hundreds of Ming troops wearing red armor collecting the uninhibited war horses scattered on the battlefield. His eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the two and asked, "Buh Chaolu, Barhu, you just fought with the Ming army, what was the result?"
"this……"
Buch looked at Lu and Barhu, and a hint of bitterness appeared in his eyes.
Udam's eyes turned cold: "What? Are you embarrassed to say it?"
Buhe said helplessly to Lu: "Wuda Mutou people, we suffered a small loss. We fought with each other once and lost hundreds of warriors. The Ming army's muskets were so sharp that they could hit the target of 300 steps. Our warriors were all killed by them before they even got close."
"What... three hundred steps?" Udam almost couldn't believe his ears, "Are you sure you are talking about muskets rather than cannons?"
"It's indeed a musket." Barhu pointed helplessly at the direction of the Ming army in the distance, "Did you see that our warrior's body is still lying there."
"How is this possible? What kind of musket can hit a distance of 300 steps?" Udam still couldn't believe it. Such a thing was really hard to believe. If there were muskets that could hit a distance of 300 steps, the bows and arrows that Mongolian warriors had been proud of for thousands of years would become useless.
Seeing Udam looking suspicious, Buk Chaolu was also a little displeased. Among the three tribes of the Khalkha tribe, the strength of the Tukhan tribe is of the greatest, but the Zakhan tribe and the Chechen Khan tribe were not given for nothing. Although no one of them is the opponent of the Tukhan tribe, if the two tribes are combined, it will be the Tukhan tribe that scratches their heads. Therefore, this is also the reason why the Tukhan tribe has been unable to annex the Zakhan tribe and the Chechen Khan tribe for a long time.
Seeing Udam so aggressive, Buhe Chaolu couldn't help but say: "Udamou people, if you don't believe it, you can send someone to try it. Those Ming soldiers have not returned yet."
Wu Damu's eyes were cold: "Oh... Are you asking me to take the initiative to fight another battle with the Ming army?"
"What's wrong with this?" Buhe said to Lu, "Since the head man doesn't believe in me and Barhu, then it's the best choice to verify it yourself. What do you think?"
Udam didn't say anything, but just looked at Buhe Chaolu with increasingly cold eyes, and his right hand slowly moved towards his waist.
Seeing the atmosphere becoming more and more tense, Buhe Chaolu also held the hilt of the knife around her waist and looked at Barhu on the side. As an ally, Barhu did not disappoint his allies. The reason why his lips and teeth were cold was not only Han people, but the Mongols also knew it. Barhu stepped forward without hesitation and stood next to Buhe Chaolu and looked quietly at Udam.
The atmosphere began to become a little nervous, and even the Mongolian soldiers nearby noticed something was wrong here and looked at it.
Looking at the two people standing in front of him, Udam's face began to become unstable. Although he is known for his bravery and even cruelty on weekdays, he is not a fool. Otherwise, the leader of the Tukhan tribe would not have promoted him to the position of Wanhushou. After thinking for a short moment, he sorted out the importance of the matter and laughed: "Buh Chaolu, you don't have to be so sensitive. The Mongols in the world are all family, so I naturally believe you, but you must also understand that it is indeed an unacceptable thing for me to tell me that the Ming army's musket can suddenly hit more than 300 steps."
When Udam smiled like this, the originally tense atmosphere gradually eased. Buhe looked at Lu and Barhu at the same time and breathed a sigh of relief. He just went downhill and smiled: "I can understand the worry of the Udam people, but how dare I lie to you about such an important thing? This Ming army's firearm is indeed far away. The warriors who died in battle are the best proof."
"Um!"
Hearing this, Udam frowned, "If this is the case, this matter will be difficult."
"It's not all the same." Barhu added: "Just as we were harassing the Ming army as you ordered, the Ming army also blocked us with muskets, but the range of those muskets of the Ming army was very close. According to our calculations, at best, it was only sixty or seventy steps."
Hearing this, Udam's face looked a little better, "That's right, we haven't seen firearms. I guess the Ming army that you mentioned had very few fire guns, otherwise they would have taken them out long ago. It's getting late now. You can send orders to rest for a night first, and then launch an attack on the Ming army tomorrow. We will annihilate them in one fell swoop!"
