The first Thousand two hundred and ninety-five the battle of Mongolia (9)

Prince Yi never expected that the Mongols would find their camp in the middle of the night and launch a decisive attack.

Prince Yi thought he was careful enough, and in order to cover up his traces, even the bonfire did not rise, and three thousand people, including him, slept in their clothes.

But even so, they were discovered by the Mongols. Can these Mongols calculate? They found them so accurately.

Of course, the Mongolians would not calculate, and as for their immortality, they did not give them dreams to the Mongolians. However, compared to Manchus who have evolved from nomadic people to farming, the Mongolians' talent on the grassland is far beyond ordinary imagination.

The escape of so many Prince Yi on the grassland is unconcealable. Moreover, the Mongolians also brought hooves and falcons. In addition, they were extremely familiar with the grassland, so it was not difficult to find Prince Yi and the others' whereabouts.

In addition, Prince Yi now has only such a small amount of military strength around him, so the Mongolians are much more courageous in taking the initiative to attack. So when they learned about Prince Yi's location, the commander of the Mongolian coalition issued an order to attack without hesitation.

In his opinion, he was sure to win if he was prepared for the attack. Moreover, not only were more than 2,000 Mongolian cavalry with him, but also a whole regiment of Ming cavalry. What else were you worried about with such a powerful force?

He had to admit that Prince Yi's order to set up camp in Heyi saved his life. When he noticed that countless cavalry were rushing towards his direction, Prince Yi made himself calm in fear. He immediately issued a warning. In a short period of panic, Prince Yi's deployment jumped on the war horses one by one, and was busy preparing to deal with the enemy.

But even so, when the Mongolian cavalry and the Ming army fought at the same time, Prince Yi's army was not fully prepared, and even the formation did not have time to complete.

But it was too late at this time, so Prince Yi had no choice but to order his subordinates to fight, and personally drew out a saber and a musket brought from the Ming Dynasty. He clamped his legs and rushed towards the enemy with his subordinates.

Prince Yi knew very well that in this case, you must not run. Once you ran away, your back would be shining on the enemy, the soldiers who had not had time to accelerate might be cut over by the opponent one by one without any ability to fight back.

Prince Yi, who is proficient in military affairs, now has only one choice, which is to lead his subordinates to rush towards him directly. First, he can fight directly, and second, he can use charge to stagger with the opponent. After rushing through the opposite cavalry, Prince Yi will take the remaining subordinates to leave the battlefield as fast as possible. At this time, when the enemy on the other end needs to turn the horse's head and then speed up again, so that Prince Yi can leave at least ten minutes of escape time for Prince Yi.

Prince Yi did this indeed a wise choice and the only choice. This choice also saved his life.

When the war horses barely began to speed up gradually and before they reached the speed of charge, the enemy on the opposite side came over.

First, the three-eyed muskets of the Ming cavalry were fired. A series of gunfires sounded, and many people fell down on Prince Yi's side. Fortunately, it was dark, and the other party could only rely on the source of the sound and combat instinct to launch. Moreover, the counter-charge of Prince Yi's troops was early and late, and the entire army did not complete the entire line. This led to the losses on Prince Yi's side not as great as imagined.

But even so, the Ming army's three-eyed muskets and two six-shot fired, causing considerable casualties, and the Mongolian cavalry even shot at them with bows and arrows, which also brought great trouble.

When the two armies officially fought, Prince Yi no longer cared about so much. It only took a few seconds from the sound of the three-eyed musket to the collision between the two armies. Prince Yi had good eyesight. He took advantage of the firelight fired by the Ming army's muskets on the opposite side and raised his hand and shot. At the same time, he heard a scream, and it seemed that he had hit it.

Immediately afterwards, Prince Yi stuffed the musket to his waist, then handed the saber in his left hand to his right hand, and his whole body fell directly on the horse's back. The sharp saber blade turned forward, and he waved along the seated horse at the moment of the intersection...

Another scream was heard, and the scream was right in my ears, and a smelly and warm liquid hit my face.

Prince Yi didn't bother to wipe away the blood splashed on his face, and the saber in his hand flexibly turned towards the next target.

At the same time, the elite Qing dynasties around him were all shouting and waving their sabers like Prince Yi, but there were not too many people like Prince Yi, who were as brave and lucky as Prince Yi. More people were also chopped down by the enemy while cutting down the enemy, and they let out a terrible cry and fell off their horses.

The cavalry's attack is extremely fierce. Life and death are just a moment, and no one can guarantee that they can ensure their survival or death during the attack.

But compared to Prince Yi's army, which had already reached the cliff, the Mongolian coalition headquarters did not have the courage to move forward like the other party, because the entire situation is now occupied by the Mongolians and the Ming army, and today's sneak attack would be the best if Prince Yi could be killed. Even if he could not do it, it would be fine to bring more losses to Prince Yi.

Anyway, as long as you bite him tightly, Prince Yi will be unable to fly in the grassland. This is the recognition of all Mongolians now.

So when the battle was halfway through, the Mongolian cavalry, who suffered considerable losses, began to subconsciously avoid it. It was also because the Mongolian cavalry in the joint combat avoided it and all the pressure was suddenly reached by the Ming army.

"These Mongolian Tartars! Bastards!" The Ming cavalry commander, who was injured by two swords and was still able to fight, cursed when he saw this. The brave men in the war between the two armies won, but now the Mongolians made such a move, throwing all the pressure on the Ming army.

Although the Ming army is brave, it is too difficult for the Ming army to deal with the already crazy Prince Yi's army alone. Moreover, in the opinion of the regiment commander, the lives of the Ming cavalry are much more precious than those of the Mongolians and Manchus. These good men lost in vain, which was simply not worth the loss.

Unfortunately, the leader could only slightly avoid Prince Yi's army's edge in this situation to avoid his own losses.

When the two armies all converged and the cavalry charge confrontation round ended, the positions of the two armies had been changed. The center point of the battle looked to the four directions and there were corpses and war horses everywhere, and some soldiers who were injured and not dead for a while were crying for help.

"Go! Go quickly!"

After rushing over, Prince Yi finally freed up his hand to wipe his face. When he turned to the back, he suddenly felt so heartbroken that he almost vomited blood.

With just one charge, less than half of his 3,000 troops were left. Some of the more than 1,000 cavalry lost were knocked over by the Ming army's three-eyed muskets, some were cut down during direct battle, and a very small number of them accidentally fell off their horses.
