I am one year older than Chongzhen

Chapter 242
The number of casualties caused by shelling and musket salvos is actually not too terrifying.

What is terrifying is that the sound of cannons and intensive gunfire shocked all the Karaqin Tartars and Jiannu.

"There is an ambush, retreat quickly!"

"Oh my god! The Ming army has cannons, run away!"

The plan is to fight two rounds by heavy infantry.It's a pity that the killing effect of the second round was too poor, because many enemy troops escaped the range by using the precious time of reloading.

In the final analysis, mobility is the most important thing, and the only best way to deal with cavalry can only be a more capable cavalry.

Ever since, Huang Yi appeared again, behind him were more than 4000 cavalry who firmly believed that victory was in sight, including more than [-] armored knights.

"Kill Jiannu for revenge!"

"Don't leave Subudi, brothers, go!"

"Listen up, all the tribes of Harqin, surrender and avoid death!"

The enemy's morale was completely lost, and the fighting power of the Tartars was not as good as Jiannu's, and their riding skills were much better than Jiannu's, so they escaped quickly.

Jaisalmu was not reconciled to being defeated again. Moreover, he saw clearly that the damage of his own troops must not have reached [-]%, and he still had an absolutely superior force, so he could turn defeat into victory.

He stopped the fleeing Karaqin cavalry and shouted: "Bastard, don't run, don't run away, or you will be killed!"

Who knew that the Karaqin tartar was a rascal, and he cursed back: "Go to your mother!"

Jaisalmu was so angry that he swung his saber and chopped it up: "Puff!"

"Ouch!"

"The Jurchens are really killing our brother!"

"Gou Jiannu, I will fight with you!"

"I'm not human inside and out, I'm quitting!"

"Yes! Quit it, run, run north!"

"Don't run away, line up, line up quickly!"

Even if Jaisalmu chopped off two fleeing tartars, he could not deter the mentally collapsed Karakin people.

The army was defeated like a mountain, and there was no way to recover at this time. Jaisalmu had to issue a new order, and the whole army retreated to the camp.

In fact, there was no need for anyone to give orders, most of the Tartars went to the camp.

There were only a few hundred riders who were unwilling to fight, and they probably ran in the direction of the tribe.

Huang Yi led his troops to hide and kill for a while, and chased and killed the enemy camp two hundred paces away before withdrawing his troops and returning to the camp.

This battle was a complete victory, including beheading the seventeenth rank of Jiannu, beheading more than 500 Karaqin Tartars, and capturing nearly [-].

Our side should have suffered three or four hundred injuries and killed more than thirty.

Small casualties and big gains are still a certainty.

This is entirely because the soldiers are not easy to fall off the horse.

If you were already injured and then fell from the horse, those who were not fatal may fall to death or be trampled to death by the horse.

The captives were all Tartars, and most of them were injured and fell off their horses. In the end, no one can say whether half of them survived.

Because gunshot wounds and gunshot wounds are really difficult to treat in this era, even with alcohol disinfection and wound suture techniques, it is impossible to have a high recovery rate.

In this era, the trauma surgery medical team trained in the base area should have the most advanced medical methods in the world today.

The wounded who can't be cured here are basically dead.

The winner and the loser are just as they should be!

Originally, the number of captives, liberated Han people, and slaves in the camp was innumerable, and when they came to challenge, there were no bounds.

But the Ming army stayed behind closed doors.

The side that dare not fight must be weak!

The captives in the camp and the rescued Han people and slaves were of course in a constant state of panic.

When they saw the power of the artillery with their own eyes, and saw the Dataiji fleeing in despair, everyone's attitude changed.

All young and middle-aged men and women actively participated in cleaning up the battlefield and treating the wounded. Too many young and middle-aged men hoped that they would be given weapons and armor if they had a good attitude.

With people's hearts available, Huang Yi decided to provide captives who were eager to be recognized with the opportunity to make meritorious service, and issued an order to recruit [-] young and middle-aged men.

Tomorrow Huang Yi will definitely pull up the cannon to challenge, presumably it should be the enemy's turn to hold out and hide in the camp to lick their wounds.

The Tartars are actually even worse at offensive and defensive warfare, which is beneficial to the Han army.

[-] cavalry infantry will definitely be able to fight the camp's offensive and defensive battle beautifully.

In order to save the physical strength of the [-] heavy infantry, Huang Yi planned to use a carriage to send them to [-] steps away from the enemy's camp before getting out of the carriage and forming formation.

The task assigned to the recruited 24 young and middle-aged men was to drive a four-wheeled carriage temporarily used as a battering ram to knock down the enemy's wall in a group of [-] people.

Instead of using the rear compartment of the carriage to strike, a thick piece of wood was loaded on the carriage, and 24 young and middle-aged men pushed it against the wall of the village.

There is no need to look for giant wood, just nail three or five bowls thick together if there is no giant wood.

With the thrust of 24 young and middle-aged men, coupled with the gravity of the four-wheeled carriage, knocking down those wooden barrier walls should be accomplished overnight.

Jaisalmu, Subudi, Tulaguang, Sheratu, etc. never thought of the need to take a defensive position. Their camps were completely shabby, and they didn't even dig trenches.

Huang Yi observed carefully with a binoculars, and felt that when someone pushed a four-wheeled carriage and rushed over, the wall of the village must have collapsed.

The new defeats of the various tribes in Harqin have taken a heavy blow to their morale, which is not the same as the morale of the people in the base area who just won a big victory.

If the Tartars didn't mount their horses because they were guarding the stronghold, they would simply trade off their strengths for their weaknesses. If they met Huang Yi's [-] heavy infantry, then it would not be a war, and it would definitely turn into a one-sided massacre.

What's more, there are six hundred musketeers, half of whom have been replaced with flintlock guns to provide long-range strikes.

It is impossible for more than 4000 cavalry to be spectators, and they will definitely form formations to attack the defeated Tartar cavalry and block the enemy's escape route.

The alliance of the 36 families in Harqin is loose, and it is most likely to have ghosts when encountering a strong enemy.

Subudi is only a co-owner in name, and the more powerful he is, the more effective his words are. After suffering a big loss in this battle, Taiji, such as Ah Yun, Chau Tu, and Shela Tu, etc., have toughened their attitudes a lot.

If it weren't for the master of Jiannu who was watching over him, these Taiji might be scattered like birds and beasts.

More than a dozen big and small Taiji have been discussing quietly in private.

They all think that we Mongols don't need to stick to one place. The enemy here is too strong to fight and can't stay here. Let's change to another place!
Is it worth fighting to the death with others?
These Taiji soldiers are definitely not as important as those of Selen, Wandanweizheng, and Gulusiqibu in the eyes of Subudi, so they are assigned the hard work of cutting wood and making carts.

This time, it was a blessing in disguise, and the loss of Taiji's troops such as Ah Yun, Cha Tu, She La Tu, etc. became the least.

Although Jaisalmu, Subudi, and Wandan Weizheng suffered a lot of losses, they did not feel that they could not make a comeback.

Because there are still about [-] troops who have returned to the camp, the total number is still double that of the enemy.
