At this moment, the sun rose, and the rays of light dispelled the clouds and mist. The originally gloomy sky became clear. Yu Linsheng and Pei Xingjin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The sneak attack had failed. If God had another heavy rain, the Ming army's firearm advantage would be greatly reduced, and the situation would have been even worse. Fortunately God would give him face, otherwise it would be really bad.

The Yulin Army and the Shanxi Army formed a military formation, blocking the valley entrance tightly, becoming a force to catch turtles in the jar. Although the sneak attack failed, it also took the lead and put great pressure on the enemies in the valley, which gained the upper hand in both psychological and military strength.

The Tartars in the valley naturally refused to sit and wait for death. After a brief panic, they immediately organized troops to break through. A tragic war began at the entrance of the valley...

Amid the sound of horse hooves, the Tatar cavalry rushed towards the Ming army's position like a tornado. The strong wind blew the flying sand and stones, and the murderous aura soared into the sky.

"Open the [51 Novel www.51ksbook.com] gun!" Yu Linsheng and Pei Xingjin's eyes were full of tears at this moment, and almost at the same time issued an order to bombard the shelling.

Boom boom boom boom...

Because it was a marching attack, the artillery carried by the Datong Army and the Yulin Army were small and medium-sized Mah Folang machine cannons, which were relatively less powerful. However, the two men's artillery combined had as many as 80, and this volley was still quite terrifying.

I saw dense artillery fire roaring out from the Ming army, and the shells exploded and blossomed like raindrops in the Tatar cavalry. In an instant, people were overturned, and the broken horse corpses were blown up high, and then a bloody storm broke out.

The Ming army blocked the valley entrance. Due to the limitation of the terrain, the Tatar cavalry did not have enough space to expand, so the formation was relatively dense. The Ming army's covered artillery fire attack immediately caused heavy losses to the Tatars, and the casualties were estimated to be more than a thousand people.

However, as the saying goes, rabbits are still biting people when they are anxious, let alone the powerful Tatar cavalry? The Ming army blocked the only entrance and exit of the valley. It would be strange if the Tatars were not fighting for their own efforts. Therefore, although the Tatar cavalry suffered heavy losses, they continued to charge without fear of death, broke through the dense artillery fire, and quickly rushed to the front of the Ming army.

In fact, long before the founding of the Ming Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming army had already begun to use firearms in large quantities. After the founding of the country, it vigorously developed firearms. By the Yongle period, the Ming army had even played with firearms quite well. In the battle with the Northern Yuan Dynasty, the Ming army gradually formed a system and effective firearm combat method.

Simply put, the first axe in this suit of combat is cannon bombardment. First, the first round of artillery shook the enemy's gall, and then the second axe is a three-stage attack of muskets to kill the opponent to the greatest extent; the third axe is cavalry. After the first two rounds of attacks, the enemy has been severely damaged. At this time, cavalry will be sent to meet the enemy's close forces, and miraculous results will be achieved; finally the fourth axe is infantry to press forward.

Basically, even the Mongolian cavalry could not stand it even if they were attacking the iron-killed Mongolian cavalry, they could only turn around and escape. The Ming army relied on these axes to kill the Northern Yuan army invincible and finally destroyed the Northern Yuan regime.

So at this time, the Tatar cavalry wade through the artillery fire and immediately welcomed the Ming army's second axe. With the sound of bean-like gunshots, bullets poured over like raindrops. The group of Tatar cavalry rushed in front were instantly killed, and fell one after another like harvesting wheat.

"Hehe, this flintlock rifle is better, it's much stronger than a musket." Yu Linsheng grinned and laughed loudly, saying, "The Tartars are all coming here, I'll invite you to eat peanuts."

By the way, the flintlock rifle has been equipped to Datong Town, but due to the limited production and low cost, the border soldiers of Yulin Town are only equipped with a small number of flintlock rifles. At present, the musketeers of the Yulin Army mainly use old-fashioned muskets.

Compared with the new flintlock, the old-fashioned musket is too far behind. It is not as good as the flintlock gun in terms of range, rate of fire, or accurate head. It also has to use open flame to ignite the lead, which is very troublesome.

Therefore, the Datong Army's musket formation was not airtight, and the Yulin Army was much colder. The Tatar cavalry became closer and closer. When waves of arrows were raised, waves of arrows were thrown over. The muskets and swords and shields at the front of the Yulin Army were constantly being shot and fell down.

Pei Xingjin looked at the new flintlock rifle of the Datong Army next door, swallowed his saliva with his eyes and cursed: "Oh, everyone is a border army. Why is Yu Linsheng the whole army using flintlock rifle, and our brothers still have to use this broken bird gun!"

"Yu Linsheng is the direct lineage of the Grand Marshal, raised by his own mother, and we are raised by his stepmother, that's comparable!" A personal soldier next to him interrupted angrily.

Pei Xingjin spat fiercely and said, "Bah, after this battle, I will ask the general for a flintlock spear. If I don't give it to you, I will submit a memorial to ask the emperor for it."

As soon as Pei Xingjin finished speaking, his face suddenly changed rapidly. He saw that the sky suddenly darkened and countless short spears fell from the sky.

"Shield!" Pei Xingjin shouted at the top of his lungs.

Dongdongdongdongdong...

The powerful short spear penetrated the shield, and the muskets and swords and shields at the forefront of the Yulin Army were immediately destroyed. A large area fell down, and those who hit the vitals were nailed to the ground on the spot. Most of the vitals were seriously injured, either missing arms or having few legs, which was a terrible sight.

Pei Xingjin cursed in pain and decisively asked the musketeers in front of the formation to retreat, and then ordered the cavalry to rush out and chop them against the Tatar cavalry that were coming close to them. The battle also entered a white-hot stage.

The Tatar cavalry obviously planned to break through the Ming army's encirclement in one go, so despite the heavy losses, they still launched a steady stream of attacks. Both the Yulin Army and the Datong Army felt that the pressure increased dramatically. Especially the Yulin Army, which had already used its third axe, just short of the last infantry being pressed over. However, the Tatar cavalry showed no sign of retreating, and they were injected with chicken blood and kept launching attacks.

Just as the ancients fought, they usually left a gate to attack the city when attacking the city. The purpose was to leave a way out for the defenders in the city, because as long as there was a way out, the defenders knew that they had a chance to escape and their will to resist would not be so strong. Once there was no way out, they would die at all times and the defenders should fight against you.

At this time, the Tartars were blocked in the valley, and they could not run away or escape. In addition, the valley was filled with Tumot's nobles, so it would be surprising that the Tartar cavalry did not fight the Ming army. This is one of the reasons why Xie Erjian had to join forces with the two teams of Yu Linsheng and Pei Xingjin, otherwise they would not be able to take advantage of the situation.

drive……

When Xue Bingxin saw that the Yulin army could not hold back, she grabbed the horse's belly and led more than 600 cavalry brothers from the village to support her. Lei Jun also came and led more than 200 cavalry brothers under the command of Li brothers and sisters, and the two teams combined exceeded 900 cavalry.

Although there were only more than 900 cavalry, Xue Bingxin and others were veterans who fought immediately, and their combat power was not even a little stronger than the border army. As soon as their new force joined, the Yulin Army's front line quickly stabilized.

Pei Xingjin, the general of the Yulin Army, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and quickly seized the time to regroup the musket array and artillery array. The artillery roared again, and fierce artillery fire continued to bombard the Tartar cavalry who were reinforced from behind.

"Look at the general, General, that woman should be General Xue Shen of Xiangshan." At this time, a personal soldier pointed at Xue Bingxin, who was rushing left and right in front of the formation and shouted loudly.

Pei Xingjin followed the expectation of his personal soldiers. Sure enough, he saw a female general holding a waist knife and killing her. Wherever the sword light reached, the Tartars were all dismayed and said astonished: "Awesome, this girl is going to be the one who wants it. I probably are not her opponent."

"I have heard that this master of Heitaishan, Youyu County, was called the third lady by the locals and worshipped as a guardian god. It is indeed worthy of its reputation." Pei Xingjin's personal captain couldn't help swallowing.

...

The general responsible for commanding the 20,000 Tatar cavalry in the valley was Lu Dongzan, a lord of Ottok in Tumotwanhu. Altan handed him over the important task of protecting the headquarters, which shows his trust in this person.

This Lu Dongzan was not born with a mighty and mighty man. Instead, he was short and thin, but had a pair of hawk eyes and a hooked nose. He looked smart and strong. At this moment, he was riding on a horse and paying attention to the battle situation at the valley entrance, and the person next to him was Li Fuda.

Li Feisha had indeed guessed correctly before, Li Fuda had indeed escaped to the Tumot headquarters and had been hiding here these days.

At this moment, Li Fuda stared at Xue Bingxin who was fighting fiercely in the formation, her face changed. She suddenly realized something and looked up at the Ming army formation to observe carefully. Since Xue Bingxin was here, the Shenji Camp led by Xie Erjian must be nearby.

However, Li Fuda searched for him and found no trace of the Shenji Camp. He couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. He was also afraid of being killed by the Shenji Camp.

Just when Li Fuda was suspicious, Lu Dongzan next to him suddenly turned his head, and a pair of hawk eyes stared at Li Fuda and asked, "King Fu, is that female general in the formation the woman surnamed Xue who defeated you?"

Li Fuda had no choice but to nod, Lu Dongzan's expression suddenly became unkind, and he said coldly: "So, Mingjun has followed your traces to find this place!"

Li Fuda was a bachelor, and said in a humble and arrogant manner: "Dear Lord Zaisang, you can't say that. Maybe it was the Ming army's scout who searched here? What's more, the most urgent thing is to retreat the enemy, not to hold anyone accountable."

Lu Dongzan's position is Zaisang, equivalent to the prime minister. He is responsible for managing the affairs of the Tumo headquarters. His status is second only to Altan. He is of high power. Like most Tatars, Lu Dongzan also looked down on the Han people from the bottom of his heart, and naturally looked down on Li Fuda.

Before, Li Fuda had 20,000 troops under his command, and Lu Dongzan was willing to give him some face, but now Li Fuda has suffered a defeat and almost all of his past lives have been defeated. He only led more than 200 cavalry to escape here to seek protection. Lu Dongzan will give him a good face, not to mention that the Ming army is likely to be attracted by Li Fuda.

So at this moment, Lu Dongzan simply regarded Li Fuda as a broomstar. He said coldly with a dark face: "Li Fuda, if you find out in the future that the army was brought by you, don't think of being your King of Fu anymore. Because of your negligence, our troops have lost so many warriors, and it has also affected everyone in the headquarters to fall into danger."

Li Fuda couldn't help but be in a state of anger, and a trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes. He wanted to remind Lu Dongzan to be careful of Shenji Camp, but then he simply didn't mention it. He closed his mouth and kept silent, sneering in his heart.

Li Fuda was not worried. Even if the Tatars were defeated by the Ming army, there were peaks on both sides of the valley, so it was not easy to escape with his ability.

However, Lu Dongzan did not seem to plan to let Li Fuda go just like this. His eagle-eyed pair of hawkish eyes turned around and said, "The King of Fu is right. The most urgent thing is to retreat to the enemy. Then please ask King of Fu to lead your subordinates to support our warriors."

Li Fuda's expression changed slightly, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes, while Lu Dongzan's pair of eagle eyes suddenly narrowed dangerously and said in a cold voice: "Is it possible that King Fu wants to disobey the orders of the Prime Minister?"

Li Fuda suddenly laughed and said, "Don't be angry, Lord Zaisang, I just obey the order." After that, he led two hundred cavalry soldiers under his command to rush out towards the valley entrance.

Lu Dongzan looked at Li Fuda's back and sneered: "The waste is also considered to be a use of everything."

As soon as Lu Dongzan finished speaking, there were suddenly a sound of shouts and killing from behind the valley. Then screams and screams were everywhere. The yurt behind the valley caught fire one after another, and in an instant, the flames surged into the sky. The nobles and family members of the Tumot headquarters fled everywhere crying and shouting for their parents, and the order was in chaos.

"Mr. Zaisang, it's not good. Ming army rushed in from the back of the valley."

"Ming army is coming in, run away quickly!"

Lu Dongzan's heart was shocked. There was a mountain behind the valley. Where did the Ming army come in? Could it be that they would fly?

At this time, a Ming army was indeed coming in behind the valley. It was the Shenji Camp led by Xie Erjian and Qi Jingtong. However, they did not fly in, but climbed in across mountains and rivers.

It turned out that two years ago, did Xie Qi and the others hid in the Daqing Mountain with more than a thousand brothers from the Shenji Camp? This hiding took half a year. In the past six months, in order to survive, even if the mountain was blocked by heavy snow, Xie Erjian also took some of his good brothers out hunting and looking for food. Therefore, he was already familiar with the road conditions in the Daqing Mountains and had also mastered the ability to cross the mountains and cross the mountains.

And the day before yesterday, Xie Qi and his brothers sneaked into the Daqing Mountains, quietly touched the back of the valley, and then used ropes to climb over the peak behind the valley.

Originally, Xie Erjian planned to wait until they were in place before sending out an attack signal, but Yu Linsheng and Pei Xingjin launched the attack without waiting for the signal. At that time, Xie Erjian and others had just climbed to the top of the mountain. Before they could breathe, they heard the sound of cannons rumbling.

Xie Erjian and Qi Jingtong looked at the top of the mountain with a thousand miles of eyes. What a good guy, the entrance of the valley had already started fighting. He didn't dare to neglect at the moment, and he didn't even rest, so he immediately climbed down from the peak.
