Chapter 194 The Coach

The war broke out outside the west gate of Tumu Fort started at noon and lasted for more than two hours. In September, when the sun set, the battlefield was full of corpses, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

For the Ming army, this was a war without a way out.

More than 5,800 infantrymen, plus two thousand civilians, fought with four thousand fierce Tatar cavalry, which was a battle without any chance of victory.

But, because of the existence of Chenxi, the existence of the Folang machine cannon, new muskets and suicide attacks using livestock have given this war more connotations.

Chenxi is creating an almost impossible miracle of war, fighting against cavalry with almost one-to-one forces, using infantry to fight on the plain terrain, and gaining the upper hand in the war.

For the Tatar coach and the brave female general Huo Aya, this was her darkest day because that day... she failed.

The invincible glory of the Tatar cavalry since the war began not continued on her. The men she led were captured by Chen Xi's "brain plan". In the total number of Tatar cavalry was only shot by Chen Xi with the Folangji cannon, more than 500. As for the soldiers who were killed by arrows in the chaos, the gunpowder bound by Folangji muskets and mules and donkeys were more than 2,000.

The enemy was hit by the Furang machine cannon and musket at medium and long distances, and when the Tatars approached desperately and were trapped in dense battle formations, the cavalry and shooting relying on to conquer the grasslands was even more incapable of exerting.

In a short distance, the Tatar cavalry must concentrate all their attention, check out the spears stabbed from all directions, and the swords and soldiers rolling on the ground to prepare to chop horse hooves. Where can I have time to pull the bow and shoot archery?

In close combat, the two sides were stabbed to death by guns or fell to the ground after being cut off their legs. Once the Tatar cavalry lost its impact and became infantry, the advantage of weapons being stronger inch long and stronger inch was reflected. Often, the Tatars waved their sabers to block left and right, but suddenly found that they were pierced by a long spear from somewhere.

After more than two hours of bloody battle, the Ming army steadily gained the upper hand. As the Tatar cavalry fell one after another, the battle circles began to shrink.

"Wu Lala!"

Just when the Tatars were already defeated, the Tatar cavalry launched the last round of attack. This time their target was to target Shenxi, which was originally in the forefront of the army, but after the war started, they were squeezed into the rear of the battlefield.

Huo Ling personally led more than fifty cavalry that had gathered together and rushed towards Chenxi.

Chen Xi had many guards, but the Tatars fought back with a rainbow of momentum. Huo Ling was covered in blood at this time and had several places on her body. However, she wanted to complete the last attack before she was defeated and died, and killed Chen Xi in one fell swoop.

But how could Chenxi be together?

At this time, Chen Xi was holding a new musket in his hand, which was a powerful weapon he used to defend himself. When the Ming army formation was defeated by this Tatar cavalry, only the soldiers around the mule cart formation remained in the system.

The battlefield was filled with chaotic words such as "Kill! Protect the Lord!", and Chen Xi had already withdrawn from the platform at this time because he didn't want him to be shot through the vital points by an arrow shot from somewhere. Now he was the same as when he was sneak attacked by Tatar cavalry on the battlefield of Yuxi River, that was to try his best to escape.

It has nothing to do with him if he has no life left. If he has lost his life, no matter how cool he looks, he will be futile. All he has to do now is to save his life and wait for an opportunity to kill a few Tatars, so that others can know that he, the commander of the three armies, is not easy to mess with.

The Tatars came in full force, and Chen Xi temporarily gave up the matter of establishing his authority. Although the mule carriage was very safe under the mule carriage, he still felt that it was not safe. At this time, the place between the two rows of mule carriages was safer. In addition to the carriage having a certain height to block the bow and arrow, if the Tatars rushed over, it would be difficult for them to cross the mule carriage and the barrier of the carriage.

"Protect your son! Ah!"

Several officers and soldiers waved their long swords to block Chen Xi, and they immediately became the priority targets for the Tatars to kill, because these Tatars did not know what these Ming soldiers were shouting. They only knew one thing, and they could not let these talkative guys attract the attention of the Ming army, and clear the threat first, no matter what he was shouting.

When the Tatar cavalry went to the back row of the Ming army's military formation through great hardships, they found that the Ming army commander Chen Xi, who was originally standing on the high platform, was waving his flag to command the battle. There was no idea where he had gone, but the military flag was still standing there, but it was already shaking at this time.

"Wu Lala!"

The Tatars could not find the Shenxi River, so they rushed towards the military flag.

In the eyes of the Tatars, Chen Xi should be with the military flag. Even if they are not together, they cannot kill Chen Xi. Pulling off the Ming army flag can turn the situation around.

Only Huo Ling had a sharp eye and found that Chen Xi had jumped into the middle of the mule cart array at this time. There were mules and carts loaded with artillery and many guards defending with spears. Because the mule and cart were connected with other mule carts, they could not pass through the barrier of the mule cart array in this way.

"Suffer to die!"

In order to vent his anger, Huo Ling spoke the words of the Ming people.

Huo Ling's pronunciation is very standard, originating from her understanding of Central Plains culture. She rode her horse toward Chen Xi. When she was more than ten steps away, the horse under her crotch suddenly rose into the air. In the stunned gaze of the Ming soldiers around her, in Shen Xi's puzzled gaze, the horse flew directly over the mule and the four or five feet high carriage behind it. When it landed, it had already crossed the carriage array and appeared in front of Chen Xi.

“Protect the big one…”

This time, before a Ming army soldier finished speaking, half of his head was cut off by Huoling's sword. Huoling continued to kill Chen Xi. At the critical moment, Chen Xi ignored his image at all. As long as he could save his life, he would just go straight into the crowd with the most cowardly and unreasonable methods.

Aren't you going to kill me? You jumped over with a single horse, and you can't beat four hands with two fists. How about you have a four-legged horse? I'm all people here. You can kill four or five people alone, or ten or eight people, so how can you deal with fifty or sixty people?

As the commander of the three armies, Chen Xi did not have any concerns about escaping. While he squeezed into the crowd, he shouted loudly: "Kill this person and get a reward of 100 taels!"

The temptation of money is extremely huge. The bounty of 100 taels is a huge amount. Ordinary soldiers dare not think about it. They only know that this money can be spent in their entire lives. At this moment, a woman came here, and the subsequent Tatars were blocked and surrounded. No matter how fierce a woman is, it is just that.

The Ming men also looked down on women, even though they were a Tatar woman, so Huo Ayan thought that the Ming soldiers would dodge and avoid them so that she could chase Chen Xi, but she did not expect that the Ming soldiers around rushed towards her like they were injected with chicken blood.

Huo Ling had been slashing and slashing on the battlefield for two hours, and was already exhausted. At this time, Huo Ling wanted to pluck up Yu Yong to chase Chen Xi, but found that Chen Xi was slipping faster than a mouse. She cut and slashed two Ming soldiers who were stabbing at the top of her spear, and shouted in despair: "Chen Xi, come here, I want to fight you to the death!"

In the end, Hu Songyue, Liu Xu and others rushed over to rescue Chen Xi. When Chen Xi was put down, they found that they were no longer covered in their clothes.

"Rareless, are you just treating adults like this? What a courage!"
