On top of the city, a gust of evening wind blew in my face.

Lin Haoran, who was wearing a black robe, faced the menacing Duotai Jibu, but his eyes fell on Qi Jiguang below the city.

The reason why he was able to stand here so calmly was not because of the twenty-four Thunder God cannons next to him, nor because Badaling was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but because the Qi Family Army led by Qi Jiguang was stationed here.

Although Xu Dang repeatedly belittled the southern generals in order to erase the achievements of Yan Dang and Hu Zongxian, and even downgraded the achievements of the anti-Japanese war as worthless, he always believed in the wise saying "No matter whether the cat is black or white, it is a good cat if it catches mice."

.

Needless to say, Qi Jiguang's military talent, and the Qi family's army's fighting prowess has long been proven in the fight against the Japanese, and now it can naturally match a small Mongolian cavalry.

That's why he decided to take the initiative tonight and give Huang Taiji a heavy blow outside the city. At the same time, he gave a stick to the mad dog who ran to the Daming Gate. He just hoped to hear the screams of Anda.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As Duotaiji got closer and closer to the battle formation, dozens of squatting tiger cannons fired like thunder at the 5,000 cavalry led by Duotaiji.

Phew! Phew! Phew!

The Mongolian cavalry rushing in front faced the small lead bullets scattered by the goddess, but they were hit like a sieve. The horses that were hit even neighed, and blood quickly spread out.

For a moment, the charge formation that had been tight just now began to loosen up. Only a hundred meters away from the city gate, people suddenly fell on their backs, and the people in front fell to the ground.

"kill!"

The Mongols have been able to cause trouble on the border of the Ming Dynasty for many years. Naturally, there are many ruthless people who are not afraid of death, but they continue to rush towards the battle formation of the Qi family army with shouts.

Since this was a charge, they did not use bows and arrows, but held their sharp swords high, with a fierce look on their faces.

It's just that this intimidating posture may be useful for those border troops who are greedy for life and fear of death, but it has no effect on the Qi Jiajun who chops up Japanese pirates like vegetables. The Qi Jiajun's battle formation is not affected at all.

puff!

Facing the Mongolian cavalry rushing over, the pike team holding a shield and guarding the front immediately launched a thrust, but the Mongolian cavalry on horseback was stabbed to death on the spot.

"Fusiliers, release!"

Qi Jiguang, who was wearing armor, stood at the center of the team, facing the Mongolian cavalry who continued to charge, and seemed to be calmly giving instructions.

Since going north, he realized that the fighting methods of the Tatars and the Japanese pirates were very different. However, he did not copy the tactics used to deal with the Japanese pirates mechanically. Instead, he chose to improve the battle formations and weapons of the Qi Army, especially the flintlock rifles.

The team is placed in the Chinese army formation as the main force of offense and defense.

But he always believed that whether they were Japanese pirates or Tatars, they were essentially enemies, and all he needed to do was find a way to win, then fight without fear of death and win.

The Qi family's army was famous in the southeast and could win every battle against the Japanese pirates. This was not only due to Qi Jiguang's skill in using troops, but also to their army's fearless and fearless temperament.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Facing the rushing Mongolian cavalry, the fusiliers pulled the trigger very calmly and fired lead bullets at the charging Mongolian cavalry.

Phew! Phew! Phew!

Although the Mongolian cavalry at the front showed their ferocious looks, what greeted them was not a flight, but lead bullets flying straight towards them, which caused their blood to splatter immediately.

The lead bullets seemed to emit a faint red light, but unlike the Tiger Crouching Cannon's Tiannu Sanhua, the flintlock gun had a higher aim, but it hit their vital points.

Some people's eyes were blown out, some had their throats punched through, and some were shot in the chest, but Mongolian cavalry kept falling off their horses.

The strong horses were not spared. One horse was blinded by the shot and became crazy. In anger, it shook the people on its back and trampled it to death.

Although the Mongolian cavalry are very fierce, they have become victims of technology in the face of this kind of flintlock spear that leads the trend of the times.

"The Qi family army is so powerful?"

After Duotaiji saw that something was wrong, he deliberately slowed down his horse. Seeing his most heroic subordinates falling one after another, he couldn't help but secretly said in shock.

Although he had heard about the Qi Jiajun for a long time and heard the story of the Qi Jiajun's suppression of Japanese pirates, he always looked down on the Qi Jiajun who only knew "encircling the bandits".

But now that the Qi family saw such a military formation and military appearance, and the terrifying lethality emitted by their battle formation, they had no choice but to change their previous ideas.

Perhaps they were able to bully the Ming Dynasty for so many years, not because they fought so bravely, but more importantly because there was something wrong with the Ming Dynasty itself, and they were never able to elect a talented Minister of War.

"put!"

Qi Jiguang saw that the cannon squatting cannon had been filled, and immediately waved his flag to give the order.

As the voice fell, this well-disciplined Qi army did not know what fear was, but once again bombarded the charging Mongolian cavalry.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The Mongolian cavalry also followed the instructions and rushed towards the Qi Army's battle formation again, but what greeted them was still the sky full of lead bullets.

With the blessing of gunpowder, these lead bullets had the kinetic energy to penetrate the human body, but they hit the Mongolian cavalry so hard that they even exploded the fragile eyeballs.

Phew! Phew! Phew!

The bodies of the Mongolian cavalry suffered again, and some of the horses also neighed loudly. They still failed to break into the Qi army's battle formation, but fell off their horses one after another.

At this moment, although the city gate was actually less than a hundred meters away from them, the Qi family army was blocking the progress of the Mongolian cavalry like door gods.

"Kill!"

Although Duotaiji knew that the Wei Jiajun he encountered today was a tough opponent, he was not someone who would back down easily. He still raised the sword in his hand and loudly gave the charge order.

this……

Seeing this, the remaining Mongolian cavalry suddenly became hesitant, but they couldn't help but watch around.

If they can win, they will naturally dare to break through. But the current Qi Army's battle formation is like a reaper of death. With just their few troops, it is probably impossible for them to break through the defense line and get inside.

The most important thing is that there seems to be an Wengcheng behind the Badaling Pass. Even if they can break through this line of defense, there will still be a fierce battle behind them.

Boom!

Just as they were hesitating, a loud noise suddenly came from the top of the city. A Mongolian cavalryman and his horse were hit by lead bullets weighing more than ten kilograms, and their flesh and blood flew everywhere.

this……

Duotaiji and his men then looked up at the city in horror, but they didn't know when the twenty-four heavy cannons changed their direction and pointed their muzzles at them.

As soon as they saw it, more cannonballs were flying towards them. But unlike the inaccurate cannonballs encountered earlier, the current cannonballs seemed to have eyes, but they hit their formation.

For a moment, Duotaiji's tribe was filled with a feeling of panic, and as lead bullets fell one after another, dust flew up and blood and flesh splattered everywhere.

The waning moon hung high in the center of the grassland, and a faint silver glow fell between the sky and the earth.

Ida can barely stand up, but I just injured my internal organs, and now I still feel uncomfortable all over, and my face shows an unhealthy color.

The subordinates next to him knew that Anda had suffered internal injuries. Not only would he continue to lead the army south, but he would probably not even be able to ride a horse, so they cautiously advised him to return to Dabansheng City.

Zhao Quan heard the advice from others and originally wanted to stop him, but when he saw An Da's face, he swallowed back the words that came out of his mouth.

He thought he could sound the clarion call to invade the Ming Dynasty this time, but who knew Anda would be so unlucky that he was seriously injured by a tree branch.

It seems that God is blocking his path, but he is unable to realize his long-cherished wish of becoming a prince and becoming a prime minister. He can only be a small military advisor on this grassland.

But there was still a glimmer of hope in his eyes, but he hoped that Anda would be a hero who would move forward in an indomitable way and publicly express his determination to go south even if he was injured.

"I'm sending you an order, we must take the opportunity to capture Badaling tonight, so as to force the Ming Dynasty to trade with us!" An Da issued the order with firm determination despite the pain in his body.

When Zhao Quan heard this, his eyes immediately flashed with deep disappointment, and he even suddenly wanted to laugh in his heart.

After so many years of love, this so-called hero has long since lost his ambition. Faced with the current situation, he is still thinking about trading with each other, rather than taking over the Central Plains.

"Great Khan, it's not good. Our brothers in Duotaiji's tribe have suffered heavy losses. Duotaiji requests immediate reinforcements!" A messenger came in a hurry and asked for support from Anda.

Only then did Anda realize that his other main force was nowhere to be seen, and he couldn't help but angrily asked: "Where is Wu Taiji, and why haven't they caught up yet?"

There were indeed too many surprises today, but I didn't expect that the persecution this time would not be effective, let alone that the Ming army would take the initiative to attack, and they would also expose a lie.

Falsifying the number of people has always been a common phenomenon on the battlefield. Although the Ming Dynasty was repeatedly claimed to have 100,000 people, the actual number of people was actually only more than 50,000, and some tribes with both heads and rats were recruited to make up the number.

At the beginning of his departure, he had no intention of actually attacking the Ming Dynasty, but more of a threat to force the Ming Dynasty to trade with him.

Considering that the remnant forces of the Beiyuan Dynasty were always eyeing him, he arranged for a large force to stay in the middle of Daban Shengcheng and Badaling, so that he could take care of both sides.

It was just that he never thought of this insurance move. Instead, he fell into a passive position in the face of stealing the camp, but he was unable to counterattack the Ming army immediately.

Only then did Zhao Quan realize that tonight was indeed too weird. Even though the camps were relatively far apart, the Wutaiji tribe from the main camp behind them should have rushed over to make such a big noise.

A Mongolian soldier noticed the situation at the bottom of the mountain, but pointed down in shock and said: "Khan, look!"

I saw that the Urad tribe guarding the water source below was already blazing into the sky, and there was a faint sound of gunfire, and there were even shouts of killing. There was actually a war happening below.

To be more precise, the Ming army not only came out from the Badaling Pass to sneak attack the Huangtai Ji tribe tonight, but also had already arranged for troops to sneak attack the Urad tribe they stayed at the bottom of the mountain to protect the water source.

When An Da saw this situation, it seemed as if he couldn't believe his eyes, but suddenly he couldn't help shouting: "He...he didn't think about mutual trading from the beginning, but wanted to take the opportunity to bite us!"

When things have developed to this point, Lin Haoran has actually arranged for an army to go around his rear to attack the Urad tribe. How could he not know that the jade-faced fox had already started planning all this?

Unfortunately, I foolishly thought that the Jade-faced Fox was really assassinated by the White Lotus Sect, and I kept waiting honestly for the court's reply on the mutual market, but I didn't know that all this was the Jade-faced Fox's plan.

As soon as I thought about this, I faced the night wind blowing in my face, but I found that it was as chilling as the winter wind.

"Kill!"

Qiao Yifeng's cavalry battalion appeared in the rear of Anda, but with the Fusiliers as the vanguard, they launched a surprise attack on the Urad tribe stationed at the foot of Badaling Mountain.

At the time of the incident, he was leading the cavalry battalion north. Following the changes on the battlefield and following Lin Haoran's instructions, he reached the rear of Anda to conduct the surprise attack.

The Urad tribe had no precautions at all, and they did not expect that the Ming army would appear here. The situation was even worse than that of the Huangtai Ji tribe. It was not until Qiao Yifeng led his troops to the middle tent that they responded.

Phew! Phew! Phew!
