At present, there are only a few thousand cavalry stationed in Hulanhushiwen.

And although this place is nominally the headquarters of Wala.

The leader of Wala, Mahamu, had left with his men a long time ago, and the soldiers stationed here had no idea where they had gone.

The one who stayed in Hulanhushiwen was Mahamu's younger brother Taiping.

The panicked Wala soldiers began to talk about how powerful the cavalry and infantry of the Ming Dynasty were in the camp.

When Taiping saw the panicked Wala sentinels, he was instantly furious and said, "Why are you panicking? Get in quickly!"

After that, he walked into the camp and waited for the report from the sentinels.

"You said the leader of the troops was the King of Han? It was the King of Han Zhu Gaoxu of the Ming Dynasty!" Taiping asked in disbelief.

He was still muttering in his heart, shouldn't the King of Han be arrested for colluding with traitors?

How could he still lead the army to the war?

"Che Li, have the tribesmen in the tribe evacuated?"

Che Li said: "Most of them went further north after the Khan left, and the rest were soldiers or slaves."

"We must hold them back and buy time for the Khan. As long as we can firmly pin Zhu Di's army down in Hulanhushiwen, the Ming Dynasty will be ours!"

Che Li shouted a few times in agreement, and the two looked at each other. Neither of them saw any confidence in each other's eyes.

Obviously, neither of them thought they could hold out in Hulanhushiwen for long.

After sending Che Li away, Taiping was still thinking about what his elder brother meant.

Their grassland warriors, fighting head-on with the group of people from the Ming Dynasty?

How could such a small number of people pose a threat to the Ming Dynasty?

The Ming Dynasty was so strong and prosperous, with such a large population, but in fact... Taiping's eyes were dim and unclear.

If they surrendered to the Ming Dynasty, it would be a good thing, at least they wouldn't have to endure hunger and cold in the winter.

But after thinking about it, they felt it was unrealistic.

Originally, Wala was a nominal subject of the Ming Dynasty.

Before the eighth year of Yongle, they had always been under the command of the Ming Dynasty.

It was only because the Ming Dynasty crippled the Tatars that they rose up.

Taiping was nervously arranging the defensive lineup.

The Ming army led by the King of Han slowly approached the Wala camp of Hulanhushiwen.

As the two sides gradually approached, the King of Han could basically see the Wala camps that were connected together.

"The front army, get on the horses! Get ready, follow me to charge!"

The roar echoed in the front army of the Ming Dynasty, and Liu Jiang stayed in the central army here, ready to provide support for the cavalry of the front army and harvest the fleeing Wala soldiers.

At the same time, he also led an army to slowly advance with the King of Han.

When the Wala army saw that there were only about a thousand cavalry ready to charge, they breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just when Wala also sent out cavalry to prepare to confront the Ming Dynasty head-on, the King of Han quietly issued an order.

"Slow down, follow me and turn left!"

The cavalry led by the King of Han had only a thousand people, and it was easy to convey the King of Han's order.

Chapter 103: The Shenji Camp Shows Its Power

The camp chosen by the Wala was a high position.

Running down from this position, the cavalry will be much faster than rushing up from below.

This is why Taiping is confident that he can confront the Ming cavalry head-on and even win the battle.

However, reality is very skinny and ideals are very illusory.

The scene that Taiping imagined of beating this small number of Ming cavalry to pieces did not appear.

Not only did they not fight, but Zhu Gaoxu slowed down and took the cavalry around.

Taiping is relatively young. Although he has some experience in conquering tribes, he has never fought a large-scale war.

Of course, the two sides have less than 40,000 people in total, which should not be considered a big battle.

Seeing that the other side retreated, Taiping prepared to rush up quickly.

They were on a downhill slope and could not retreat. Once they retreated, they might end up falling and their companions behind them would be implicated.

And he sent out half of the cavalry to prepare for the charge.

He could not evacuate as quickly as Zhu Gaoxu.

But if he slowed down, the opponent's archers might come up and shoot them through the heart!

Taiping did not have such a quick reaction ability, according to his idea.

The best way at this moment was to rush to the vicinity of the Ming army and directly break through the opponent's formation!

Under the leadership of Taiping, the 5,000-strong army of Wala continued to accelerate the charge.

And when Taiping gradually approached the Ming army, he noticed the calm Ming army.

The Ming infantry, which had not moved, made Taiping's heart skip a beat.

"Shoot!!!"

Bang bang bang——————

Gunshots rang out in clusters! Many sparks even exploded around the Wala cavalry!

The Wala cavalry was instantly in chaos!

The power of the fire guns used by the Ming was still enough to hurt people.

But in such a vast grassland, it was not enough to cause much damage to the Wala soldiers.

But their noise was a huge stimulation for the horses! It was an unprecedented stimulation!

At this time, the horses had not completed the adaptive training for firearms.

When encountering firearms, horses are very easy to be frightened!

After being frightened, the Wala army began to be in chaos!

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu ordered the cavalry to put away their horses and shouted at the rear of the Wala: "Fire!!!"

These cannons were successfully improved by Zhu Zhanji after Zhu Zhankan's guidance and through the wealth of the business department.

There are two types of cannonballs, one is a cannonball with a very loud sound but limited power, and the other is a cannonball with a normal sound but considerable power.

The King of Han was on a forced march, and the baggage he carried was limited. Moreover, after experiments, it was found that this kind of cannonball was more likely to alarm the horses.

In addition, the storage conditions for powerful cannonballs were more stringent.

Therefore, the King of Han only carried cannonballs! Sure enough, it came in handy when targeting the Wala cavalry!

Most of the frightened horses could not be controlled.

Taiping could only shout: "Don't run, hold on!"

But he knew very well in his heart that there was no way to hold the chaotic horses steady!

Fleeing in panic, shouting in panic.

At this time, the Wala people completely lost their confidence in fighting.

They could only stagger away from the battlefield in a panic!

"Leader, let's go to meet the Khan." Taiping's deputy Che Li persuaded.

"The situation is over! We shouldn't fight the Ming Dynasty head-on!" Taiping felt powerless.

He immediately changed his horse to a pony and took a detour to leave this troubled place.

If the Ming Dynasty's shells hit him directly, it would be uncomfortable.

Anyway, there is no wealth in the camp, so it can only be left to the Ming Dynasty.

After a while, the fighting ended, and the King of Han picked up the big flag in the camp with regret.

He said with regret: "It's a pity that Mahamu is not in the camp."

......

The mountains are suddenly gone.

Mahamu is leading the coalition forces here to wait for the arrival of the Ming Emperor!

His plan is to deceive people and attack from the east.

The army attacking Datong looks huge, with tens of thousands of people.

But there are actually only a few thousand people there. The real reason why there seems to be so many soldiers and armors is naturally the help of the priest.

The priest arranged a simple smoke and dust illusion around Datong.
