Countless Ming troops descended from heaven like divine soldiers.

Although in the eyes of Zhu Dadian and some of his staff and generals, the thousands of Ming troops this time were actually very mixed, including Sauron, Hezhe, Dahuer, Khalkha, Horqin, North Korea, Japanese, and Liuqiu.

, Annan, Burmese soldiers, Qingkang, Tangut, and even Portuguese, Spanish, and Dutch mercenaries.

The more than a dozen barbarian camps were as strong as wolves and tigers, especially when equipped with high-quality cotton armor, firearms, bows and knives provided by the Ming Dynasty.

This kind of unexpected surprise boosted morale.

Go forward indomitably.

The imperial camp of the Ming army was unwilling to lag behind and took the lead bravely.

The Ming cavalry artillery troops directly moved the cavalry artillery carried by horses and began to build cavalry artillery positions. This type of cavalry artillery of the Ming army was actually very small. It was first used on battleships as a swivel cannon. Taking advantage of its lightness,

Combined with the design of the camel crossbow, a lightweight gun mount placed on the back of a camel or horse was developed.

With this light gun mount, you can put micro artillery or large-caliber heavy guns on the back of a horse, which can not only maneuver quickly, but also provide good firepower.

The mounted artillery of the Ming army was also divided into two types: camel artillery and horse artillery, as well as swivel artillery and heavy fire muskets. They were used according to different battlefield needs and often produced amazing results.

For example, at this time, the Ming army first crossed the 300-mile Wusun Road in the Tianshan Mountains in six days, and then ran 500 miles in three days before suddenly appearing behind the Mongolian rebels. During this march, the Ming army's artillery was difficult to carry.

, even light artillery will affect the march.

The revolving cannon only weighed a few dozen kilograms, and the wall-mounted musket used for the bastion defense only weighed a dozen kilograms, but its power was not weak.

The swivel cannon shoots fast, the wall musket shoots far and accurately, and the camels and horses carry the load, allowing for rapid maneuvers and battlefield firepower reinforcement.

A thundering roar sounded.

"The Sauron camp is the most powerful!" Zhu Dadian greatly admired the Sauron people. This group of people are extremely capable of riding and shooting. The bitter cold conditions in the Northeast created the most courageous group of warriors. When they received the equipment and firepower of the Ming army,

After the support, it becomes even more powerful.

Like a sharp knife stabbing straight through, moving forward inexorably.

"The Horqin Camp performed very well this time."

"After all, I just surrendered not long ago, so I have to perform well." As the first Mongolian tribe to surrender to Jianlu, Horqin had a deep marriage relationship with Jianlu and had a close relationship.

They went to the dark side on the wrong road and were eventually wiped out by the Northern Expedition led by the prince.

"Those red-haired mercenaries are very good. Look at their position. They always stay to the side and never take the lead. Especially since they maintain a good speed and rhythm. They are worthy of being a group of veteran mercenaries."

"The rebels have turned around and are going to counterattack."

Although countless rebels don't know where the Ming army came from, they also know that this is not the time to think about that. They must contain or even repel the Ming army, otherwise they will be completely defeated if the Ming army is allowed to kill through the camp.

.

It's like a mass of dark clouds gathering.

"Let them see what the new era is!" Zhu Dadian sneered.

How can tribal herdsmen armed with bows, arrows and spears fight against the Ming army, which is heavily armed, especially equipped with sharp guns and cannons?

The glory of the cavalry has gone far away, and the last remaining glory belongs to the musketeers.

The cavalry artillery battalion has set up a position, with revolving cavalry cannons, large cavalry muskets, and many soldiers carrying heavy muskets to protect them.

Sauron's camp is still charging forward. Sauron's hunters, who are accustomed to bows and arrows, have trained hard for more than half a year after switching to fire guns, and have become very good gunmen.

Gunfire spray.

Countless lead bullets were shot out, knocking down the oncoming rebels.

The mercenaries in the Western mercenary camp were even more experienced and cunning. They wandered around the edge of the battlefield, charged and fired a volley of muskets. Then they turned their horses, regrouped, and charged close again. Another volley of fire broke out.

Fire a round, then retreat.

It is not easy to fight in close combat with the rebel herdsmen.

This was not the cavalry battle that the Taiji rebels expected at all. After a while of the battle, the rebels were overwhelmed, especially those herdsmen from the Kazakhs, Giljis, Vulgars, and Heshuotes who had been recruited by strong men.

They didn't want to fight for Kundulun Wutesh and the others, let alone fight against the Ming Dynasty.

Now that the situation on the battlefield was not good, they took advantage of the chaos and began to flee in all directions, and some even surrendered directly to the Ming army.

Thousands of horses galloping like thunder.

The sound of cannons and cannons was like thunder.

Swords and arrows are no longer a match for guns and cannons.

Not to mention that the rebels were attacked from behind and couldn't even form a formation. Moreover, their more than 10,000 troops were not the elite of Kundulun. They were just a ragtag group.

More and more rebels are landing.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Erkehutaiji abandoned his formation and fled, and the rest of the Taijis also dispersed.

At noon, more than 10,000 rebels completely collapsed at the Chat Pass. The sons and grandsons of Kundulun, the leader, fled first, and the rest no longer had the will to fight.

There were mutilated corpses everywhere on the snow, and the thick smell of blood was mixed with the pungent smell of gun smoke.

"The formation was supposed to kill more than a thousand people. At least five thousand people surrendered on the battlefield. One or two thousand people were surrounded and surrendered. About four to five thousand people ran away."

Zhu Dadian rode on horseback and patrolled the battlefield, feeling nothing about the corpses scattered everywhere.

If Compassion does not command troops, it will be numb long ago.

"Send the Sauron, Horqin, and Khalkha battalions to pursue them, and send the Yanqi and Xifan battalions directly to Yinli to intercept them at both ends. The rest will continue to clean up the battlefield here."

After a pause, he looked at the high snowy peaks of Tianshan Mountain to the south, "Send a team of people into the mountain, find Eqirtu, and tell him that we have won. The wind is blowing and the snow is heavy, making it difficult for the army to pass through the Xiate Ancient Road, and

It will not be easy to resupply the troops after they come here, please Chechen Khan to return to Aksu to rest first and there is no need to come here."

What he said was partly objective fact, but it was also because Zhu Dadian did not want Eqirtu to pick peaches, and wanted to take advantage of this free period to garrison troops in Yinlitun and even build a city and fortress. Since

Once you come, you won't leave again.

After a thousand years, the Central Plains Dynasty returned to the Yinli River Valley.

"Jingsuo, how to deal with these prisoners? Many of them are strong men who were forcibly captured by Kundulun Utesh and his son."

"Check it out. The men and horses of Kundulun Utaish are not slaves. Half of them are rewarded to the soldiers, and the other half are auctioned. As for the other Kazakhs, Giljis, Heshuote and other tribes, let their tribes pay or

Use livestock as a ransom, and promise to the Ming Dynasty that you will not commit the crime again, but after paying the ransom, you will still have to serve one year of hard labor."

"If no one comes to redeem him, he will be taken to Yinli to build a city and farm the land, and he will serve three years of hard labor before being released."
