Chapter 289: Dilemma
"Bah, bah, bah..."
After another volley of gunfire, Su He, who launched a desperate charge, was hit by several bullets, and the cavalry around him fell off their horses unwillingly.
From beginning to end, he failed to break through the seemingly short distance of thirty steps in front of the Habayashi Guards.
"Well, Brother Zhao did a good job. He not only dealt a heavy blow to these Tatars, but also gave them hope, so as not to make them timid and retreat!"
Seeing that only more than 2,000 Tatar cavalrymen had escaped, Li Gui, who was in the third trench, couldn't help but laugh with the generals with a satisfied look on his face.
"It's just that the eighty-step distance limit is really uncomfortable. It's more than half the range of our cannon."
Looking at the Tatars who were let go by Zhao Xi after escaping eighty steps, the people behind them shook their heads unwillingly.
"Everyone, please be patient a little longer. Tomorrow at most, when all our people are here, we can fight freely, haha!"
There is no way. If they do not deliberately shorten the range of the Yulin Guards' bird cannons, if these Tatar coalition forces want to rush to a distance of thirty steps from the Yulin Guards, the losses they will cause will definitely cause them to flee immediately. In this way, they will hold them back
The task of the Tatars will be difficult to achieve.
…
"Everyone, what do you think?"
Just when Li Gui of the Yulin Guards was comforting the soldiers, at the end of the battlefield, a group of Tatar leaders were discussing solemnly.
"Although Su He is a little arrogant, his men are not bad. He has been defeated. If we want to break through the Ming army's blockade, it will probably not be easy for us!"
"I don't think so. Although this Ming army has very sharp weapons, Su He and the others only used a few thousand men and horses just now. If there were more troops and they could break through the remaining twenty or thirty steps, I don't think
It’s not difficult!”
After being tested by the Suhe tribe just now, all the Tatar leaders expressed their opinions one after another. Although some were afraid, most of them were still confident.
"Don't you think this Ming army is too strange? After fighting for so long, have you ever seen them shoot an arrow?"
Just after one of the Tatar leaders expressed the idea of increasing his troops to charge into the battle, the Tatar leader who had doubted the identity of the Yulin Guards after the failure of the first siege, this time reminded him again.
Get everyone together. "Bows and arrows? Terig, what do you want to say? Are you going to say that the Ming troops on the opposite side are Yu... Yu Linwei?"
When they talked about the Yulin Guards, the muscles on the faces of these Tatar leaders twitched slightly unconsciously.
There was nothing they could do about it. Although they, the new entrants, had never fought against the Yulin Guards, within the trap, there were several huge temples built with the headless corpses of their own clan, which reminded them all the time.
The Habayashi Guards are not comparable to those ordinary border troops!
"Think about it. Although the Ming army we encountered in the past was equipped with various firearms, the number of those firearms was not large. Like us, they mainly used swords, guns, bows and arrows. But look at this Ming army.
From beginning to end, apart from firearms, did they ever use other weapons?"
"And as far as I know, because firearms are difficult to prepare and consume a lot of money, in the entire Ming Dynasty, only the Emperor's personal army, the Yulin Guards, has all the firearms and equipment..."
Faced with everyone's doubts, the Tatar leader of a small tribe named Terige slowly analyzed the situation he observed with everyone.
"Then according to what you said, the Ming army opposite us is probably the Yulin Guards?"
Hearing what the Tezge Tatar said, these Tatar leaders also reacted one after another.
"Although I'm not sure, there is a high probability that we have really encountered the Habayashi Guards!"
Sighing, Tezge couldn't help but nodded solemnly.
"Damn Bo Cheng'en, he swore before that this was not the Yulin Guard and tricked us here. What should we do now?"
After being analyzed by Tezge, all the Tatar leaders cursed Bo Chengen, the 'young general'.
"We have two ways now, one is to leave here immediately and exit the pass; the other is to take this opportunity to suffer some losses and swallow up these thousands of forest guards, herd horses and go south to join Bob.
Meet that old fox!"
Looking at the excited crowd, Terige, the leader of the small tribe, spoke again with a serious face and put forward two suggestions.
"Since the Yulin Guards are chasing us, why are we still fighting? Didn't you see the Jingguan that the Han people talked about? I don't want to turn myself and my tribe into those piles of corpses!"
There was no need to think about it at all. Except for Tezge who made the suggestion, almost all the Tatar leaders chose to escape.
"Don't forget, everyone, the current Pinglu City is in the hands of Bo Chengen. If we say we want to leave now, how can Bo Chengen let us out so easily? What's more, once we leave, what will happen next?
Maybe I’ll never have the chance to return to this place with lush water and grass!”
Xin Shi secretly despised these short-sighted and timid people, but Terige spoke again to remind them.
"He dares! If he dares to stop us, the worst we can do is attack Pinglu City again. I still don't believe it. With just a few thousand of his men, they can still compete with the Yulin Guards!"
Although they were afraid of the Yulin Guards, they did not pay attention to the rebels under Bo Chengen.
"Bo Chengen's group of rebels are naturally no match for the Yulin Guards! It's just that you haven't thought about it. What if we and Bo Chengen get into internal strife and the Yulin Guards take the opportunity to attack again?"
Seeing the leaders of the various ministries who only wanted to escape, Tezge couldn't help but despise these people in his heart again.
"Terge, do you really want to..."
Seeing that the leader of a small tribe called Terige actually wanted to attack the Yulin Guards, all the Tatar leaders couldn't help but look surprised!
"Although the Habayashi Guards are powerful, they are also human beings. What's more, their numbers are small right now. As long as we are willing to spend money..."
…
"We didn't fight too hard, did we? Why didn't these Tatars move again?"
Seeing the Tatar coalition going nowhere after just one round of tentative attacks, the generals on the Yulin Guard side were immediately speechless.
There is no way, because of the word "drag", Habayashi Wei cannot take the initiative, so he can only wait for the Tatars to come to his door to satisfy his addiction!
"Haha, as long as they don't evacuate, just delay! As long as all our people arrive tomorrow, we don't have to be so passive and can only wait for them to fight."
After seeing that the Tatars on the opposite side did not attack again, but showed no signs of leaving, Li Gui finally put his heart in his stomach at this moment.
"Zhao Xi, when it gets dark, you can lead people in the dark to bury some of the landmines we brought. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to use them in the future, and I'll have to work hard to bring them back, hehe!"
