Chapter 1282 The fallen warrior

Bater is one of the thousand households under the Ministry of Rigude and is also the brother-in-law of the Ministry of Rigude. Since the Ming army is in such a formation, it seems that this battle will definitely be won. With such great contributions, the Ministry of Rigude will naturally take care of his own people first, so he directly appointed Bater as the main force to attack.

After hearing this order, the other generals all showed envy. In their opinion, Bater was simply lucky and had such credit at their fingertips. This was impossible. Who made Bater have a good sister? No one could envy this kind of blessing.

"Ode to the Lord!" Battel replied with a full breath, his whole body was full of energy and energetic. He rode his horse toward his troops as soon as he grabbed his horse's belly, ready to start the attack.

"Captain, the Mongols are going to attack!" The Ming army had been on high alert for a long time, and the Ming army could see clearly when the Mongolian cavalry moved.

"Carry directly to the front? The Mongols are looking for death!" Luo Tianqi also sneered and put down the telescope in his hand.

Do the Mongols actually think that now is the era when Mongolian cavalry dominate the world? They actually use cavalry to charge directly in the wild to attack the firearm troops that have been arranged in an array? This is simply seeking death!

However, this was the best result for the Ming army, and it was also what Luo Tianqi hoped. When he saw the Mongolian cavalry start to act, he issued orders one by one, and the Ming army, which was trained and equipped with elite troops, began to operate like a sophisticated war machine.

Because he was a vanguard, Luo Tianqi carried not many field artillery, and they were all small cannons. However, small cannons could also kill people. With the order issued, the Ming army's field artillery began to fire, and shells cut through the sky and roared towards the Mongolian cavalry that were speeding up.

The shells fell, and the Mongolian cavalry and their horses immediately smashed into flesh. Even if they were rubbed, they would be killed and injured.

However, field artillery does not cause much lethality to Mongolia, because the lack of artillery and the current artillery shells only use kinetic energy to attack. The Mongolian cavalry will not gather in a group foolishly when charging. In addition, the Mongols were originally fierce in combat, and the losses of just a dozen cavalry were nothing to them.

"Brothers! Go!" Bater shouted loudly, and the other Mongolian cavalry also made strange and strange screams, coupled with the sound of galloping horse hooves, if the psychological quality was poor, he would have been scared by this scene.

The Mongolian cavalry had not seen cannons. The Korqin tribe participated in the battle between Kangxi and Junggar tribes and also used cannons in the grassland battle. Therefore, cannons were not rare for them. Battel knew very well that it would take time for the Ming army to launch cannons. In terms of their distance from the Ming army, the Ming army could rush forward by at most three rounds of Mongolian cavalry. At that time, the Ming army's cannons were useless, and the Ming army, who were standing foolishly, could only face the sabers of the Mongolian cavalry.

When he thought of the soon-to-be-cutting of the Ming army's head and rushing into the Ming army's formation to establish merits, Bater felt that blood was boiling all over his body.

As expected, after the first round of artillery fire, the second round of artillery fire was only a while before the Mongolian cavalry was launched. At this time, the Mongolian cavalry was only more than a mile away from the front of the Ming army. The Mongolian cavalry rushing in front could even clearly see the expressions on the Ming army's faces opposite.

But strangely, the Ming army opposite was still standing like a wooden carving, without showing any panic or uneasiness. Could it be that these Ming army were already stunned? The Mongolian cavalry had no time to think too much, and desperately urged their mounts, and at the same time began to wave the saber in their hands.

Suddenly, a whistle sounded, and the Ming army, which had not been moving, took action in the whistle. The first row of Ming soldiers raised the muskets in their hands and began to aim at the Mongolian cavalry that were charging forward.

"Be careful of the musket!" The leading Mongolian subordinate officer shouted quickly, and at the same time he hid his body on the side of the horse. This riding technique is called hiding in stirrups, and is a unique skill for the Mongolians who grew on the horse's back.

This technique is extremely effective against muskets. The Mongolian cavalry of the Korchin tribe often used this move in the previous wars with the Ming Dynasty to avoid the killing of muskets. Now these Mongolians are repeating the same trick. In their opinion, as long as they withstand the Ming army's last attack, victory is in front of them.

It was time to say that, just as the Mongolians used their full-body chorus to show off their superb riding skills, the Ming army's muskets began to shoot.

As the sound of bursting beans sounded, a stream of white smoke rose in front of the Ming army. The white smoke was formed by the burning of gunpowder. At the same time, the Mongolian cavalry on the opposite side suddenly collided with an invisible iron wall, and dozens of cavalry rushing in the front and their war horses flipped to the ground.

Another whistle sounded, and the Ming army in the first row retreated, and the Ming army in the second row stepped forward, and raised muskets towards the Mongolian cavalry like the previous Ming army. At this time, the Ming army in the third row was ready, and the Ming army that had just retreated had already begun to reload in an orderly manner.

As the whistle sounded again, the Ming army's muskets continued to shoot. This time, there were obviously more Mongolian cavalry falling down than the first time. This was naturally because the Mongolian cavalry rushed closer and the lethality of the muskets was correspondingly greater.

"Split! Separate!" Bater never expected that the Ming army's firearm was so powerful. He lost dozens of warriors in two strikes. Even the Mongolians were proud of hiding in the stirrups. Moreover, the Ming army's orderly fight made him restrain his initial contempt.

It has to be admitted that the Mongolian cavalry of Korqin is indeed brave and good at fighting, and Bater has some tricks. The response he made is not wrong. Unfortunately, he is facing the modern Ming army rather than the Ming army in the past. How can the Ming army, who have been prepared for him, get his wish? When the third row of musketeers began to prepare for shooting, the Ming army's front array also began to move, and the Ming army's fronts on both sides began to move towards the center, forming a concave shape, and muskets from three sides were fired at the same time under command.

"Roar! Rush over! Rush over and we will win!" Bater was frightened. The cavalry beside him fell off his horse one after another. The Mongolian cavalry who died immediately were fine, and some of the Mongolian cavalry who were seriously injured and undead were screaming miserably on the ground, which made him frightened.

But now, he has no other choice. Facing the muskets that are raining from three sides, the only thing Bater can do is to continue charging. Only by rushing into the Ming army to the ranks can he change the current predicament of being beaten.

Half a mile...400 meters...300 meters...200 meters...100 meters.

It's getting closer and closer! After losing nearly half of the cavalry, Bater finally rushed to the last two hundred meters, but the last one hundred meters were like an unsurpassable path. One after another, the Mongolian cavalry fell down. The muskets of the Ming army opposite had not stopped, but he couldn't rush through it.

"Arrow! Shoot..." Battel said at this time, regardless of whether the cavalry's bows and arrows could hit the Ming army. He shouted loudly, and took out the bow and arrow to get the arrow. But before he could pull the bow, a rapid bullet hit his chest directly.
