After hearing the familiar wind, the scouts of the Ponu Army who came forward to investigate all subconsciously raised their left hand to protect their eyes. The scouts covered by arrow clouds were instantly wet with arrows, and they and the war horses under their crotch were also filled with arrows. They shot lead bullets at the arrows after the war horses fell to the ground. The scouts who came forward from veterans did not immediately withdraw from this dangerous place, but formed a circular formation under the leadership of the sergeant He Dayong. The center of the circular formation were two brothers injured on their legs, and the others protected them.

He Dayong, who was injured in his little arm, judged from the length and strength of the arrows in his arm that the enemy was using a Mongolian riding bow. There was no need to think too much that this must have been an ambush caused by the Mongols. After a while, He Dayong and his friends finally saw the enemy. The Mongolians in the bushes and forests did not ride horses due to the terrain restrictions, and all held bows and arrows to continue shooting arrows at them. The vanguard scouts also saw the number of enemies, and about three thousand Mongolians were approaching them. He Dayong retreated with the wounded, and ordered the two scouts who were not injured to run back to report the news.

Fy Jin, the scout Qianzong, who stayed sixty feet away, also initially judged from the number of arrows that the enemy's number was only three or four thousand. Fei Jin, the Mongols, believed that they could definitely defeat them. The Slave Army liked to fight this kind of battle that won the more with fewer. As long as the Mongols did not exceed ten thousand, they were basically no match for their scout Qianzong team. Even if Fy Jin was sure to win this battle, the main job of the scout Qianzong was to report the enemy situation to the superiors so that the commander could make battlefield decisions.

After Fei Jin sent ten people to the rear to report the news, he still concentrated a hundred people holding muskets in their hands as agreed in advance, and fired three rounds of air to remind the left and right to investigate the scouts, who encountered the enemy situation. Then, Fei Jin learned the details of the enemy based on the forward's return and immediately sent two hundred teams to meet He Dayong and others. Immediately afterwards, Fei Jin excitedly led a large army to slowly catch up with the enemy. Although the land here was the territory of the Mongols, the scouts of the Po Nu Army still believed that the Mongols took the lead in using force in such a major trading day, which was a serious provocation to the Po Nu Army. If they did not teach the shameless Mongolians a lesson today, the Mongols would have forgotten who was the new overlord of the grassland.

The scouts in the Po Nu Army were extremely well equipped. In addition to standard equipment such as cavalry, swords, and hand guns, crossbows and muskets, they were all equipped with one set of crossbow arrows and muskets. It can be said that the scouts were the elite among the elites of the Po Nu Army. Usually, the Po Nu Army claimed that one Po Nu Army could defeat ten Mongols, and the scouts believed that they could defeat three Po Nu Army soldiers by one. Fei Jin divided the troops into four 200 teams, and all dismounted and arranged them into the double row of muskets of the Po Nu Army scouts, and went westward. The remaining 200 scouts were still on horseback and alert.

Such an encounter is the focus of the training of the Po Nu Army scouts in their daily training, so they are calm. The reason why the firearms of the Po Nu Army scout team are arranged in only two rows is because the scouts load the muskets at a fast speed. In order to cope with the most dangerous battlefield situation, the shooting speed of the Po Nu Army scouts is comparable to the third-section attack of Huang Zhimen.

The crackling sound of muskets indicates the beginning of the battle. The dense bushes hidden the Mongolian figures. Although the veterans of the Pou Nu Army saw the figures of all the enemies, they knew how to fire the lead guns. The too dense jungle still protected most of the Mongols without any harm. Because the spears were too hindered by the trouble of walking among the trees, they abandoned their spears and waved their moon-shaped scimitars and shouted at the Pou Nu Army.

Everything has its pros and cons. The jungle hindered the damage of the lead bullets of the muskets and slowed down the pace of the Mongols. In view of this, Fei Jin intended to retreat into the pine forest, in order to use the spacious space under the tall pine wood to facilitate the shooting of muskets. After the Pou Nu Army retreated more than 40 feet, the figures of the Mongols gradually appeared from the dense forest. Their formation was extremely strange, almost ten people and one team fought on their own. The Mongolian teams that rushed out of the jungle did not make any stops to attack the Pou Nu Army's musket formation.

The people led by the Mongolians were all veterans. They stepped on the gaps after the fire of the Pou Nu Army's muskets and used trees as cover to gradually approach the Pou Nu Army's musket formation. At the beginning, this battle method of the Mongols did not attract Fei Jin's attention. It was not until all Mongolian squads adopted the same tactic that Fei Jin was vigilant. The Mongols approached the Pou Nu Army's military formation with only 30% of the casualties. This small amount of casualties made Fei Jin feel a huge threat, and he had to order the formation to change.

The shrill swan whistle blew rapidly, and the Ponu Army completed the formation change within one breath. The 100-man team changed into a small round formation of more than 70 and twenty people. Ten musket soldiers were in the center. Other scouts held swords in their right hand and hand guns in their left hand, excitedly staring at the gradually approaching enemy. Both sides had just completed the formation change, and the Ponu Army scouts, who had the advantage of the number of people in a single formation, were much higher than those of the Mongols. After the musket soldiers fired a salvo, they quickly loaded ammunition and the scouts holding the sword in their hands formed a three-to-one situation. One of them sealed the enemy's scimitar, one slashed, and the other slashed the enemy's chest.

Don’t say that the sword of the Pou Nu Army itself is one foot longer than the Mongolian scimitar. The sword of the Pou Nu Army is both sharp and tough. Blocking the enemy’s scimitar means breaking it. The most taboo to fight in close combat is to fight one against three. When the skills are not as good as people’s equipment or the opponent, the death or serious injury of the Mongolian warriors will naturally become inevitable. However, the Mongolians’ fighting spirit is high, and they are fighting for their own pasture land, and their fighting spirit is extremely strong. The Mongolians’ attacks are like surging sea tides, rushing towards the scouts of the Pou Nu Army in the forest one after another.

Although the Pou Slave Army has the upper hand in battle formations and weapons, killing people is always more difficult than killing cattle, especially against the Mongols who were shocking in fighting, the Pou Slave Army scouts became more and more difficult to fight. The soldiers of the Pou Slave Army were humans rather than gods, and they also needed to breathe and rest. Half an hour of hand-to-hand combat made them exhausted. No matter how strong the Pou Slave Army scouts were, casualties inevitably appeared in succession of fighting against the enemy. At this time, Qian Zong Fei Jin realized that his opponent had also found the weakness of the Pou Slave Army.

Just when Fei Jin's scouts were struggling, the Mongolians temporarily stopped their attack due to casualties. The Mongolians recovered their combat power in just over a year, which made Fei Jin feel a huge threat. The Pou Slave Army fought against the Mongols due to the great victory last year, and they often looked down upon them. Today, the elite scouts of the Pou Slave Army actually struggled against three thousand Mongolian soldiers, which forced Fei Jin to put away the contempt and began to think about countermeasures. Fei Jin ordered five scouts to climb onto the tall pine trees to observe the enemy situation.

Shortly after the Ponu Army scouts climbed up the tree, the Mongols sounded the horn to summon reinforcements, and the low horns of the cow horns echoed in the valleys. Similarly, the horns of the Ponu Army requesting reinforcements were also sounded, as if the Ponu Army's reaction was much faster. The horns of the Ponu Army were reunited one after another. The horns of the Ponu Army were gathering in the area of ​​Feijin's scouts. The first to arrive at the battlefield was the 2,000 scouts of the mountain troops in Liuqingshan. As soon as they arrived on the battlefield, they showed off their spring and autumn camouflage cloaks unique to the mountain troops from their backpacks.

The two mountain troops of the Po Nu Army poured a lot of effort into Zhang Dashen, and there were three sets of camouflage cloaks alone. In spring and autumn, the camouflage cloaks were gray bottom and irregular dark yellow cloth, which was almost the same as the scenery of leaves falling from the northern mountains. Due to the cumbersome workmanship, only the mountain troops in the Po Nu Army could be equipped. After putting on the camouflage uniforms, the mountain troops scouted Qian Zheng, Zhang Yihu, and Zhang Chunsheng, and went to Fei Jin to discuss military information.

"Uncle Fei! Mr. Fei Qian! You have all made the most of the money. How about leaving us with these leftover soup?" Zhang Yihu, who is 17 years old, said to Fei Jin with a slutty face. Facing these two young men, Fei Jin was helpless and did not hit the smiley man. These two men are not only the disciples of the great coach, but also the heroes of the Golden Wolf Camp soldiers in the Battle of Baishan. It was these children with deep hatred for the Jurchens that blocked the Jurchen coalition's final madness.

"How come you guys, why are you guys like Hu Ming's hoist meat? OK! Let's play here for you!" After Fei Jin finished speaking, he explained the new Mongolian tactics to them. As these two juniors said, he had won the first prize today, and it was time for these juniors to show their faces.

While saying goodbye to Fei Jin, Zhang Yihu and Zhang Chunsheng discussed their cooperation matters. The two men who returned to the military formation left behind a hundred people to guard the horses, and the others, under their leadership, invaded the bush forest like mercury. For jungle warfare, the mountain troops had their unique tactics. Under the cover of the camouflage uniform, the two thousand mountain troops of the Po Slave Army launched an attack from east to west in the bush forest within a radius of twenty miles.

The formation of the mountain troops of the Pou Slave Army into the forest is very similar to the scout formation, with a hundred people in one team and ten people in one team. Although the mountain troops are arrogant, they immediately become cautious once they enter the battlefield. They all know one thing: military merits in war are very important and they must fight with their lives, and underestimate the enemy's death and no burial place. The mountain troops are not equipped with handguns, and their sharp weapon is crossbow arrows. When they have rich experience in mountain jungle warfare, they often use crossbow arrows to cover suspicious places when they cannot see the enemy.

However, the mountain troops' tactics of burning silver have been criticized by the stingy Marshal Zhang. Although Zhang was unhappy, he did not cut off the supply of arrows from the mountain troops. As long as the enemy could be eliminated, fewer soldiers of the Pou Nu Army were killed, Zhang would support the Pou Nu Army to innovate the tactics even if he tightened his waist. At least in this expulsion battle in which the mountain troops drove the Mongols out of the bush forest, the mountain troops' tactics of burning money had achieved miraculous results.
