Zhang Ping'an's criticism of Lu Deyin made Yin feel a little ashamed. Because the Mongolian village wall blocked part of his sight, even on the command platform, he could not see the scene within three feet behind the village wall. If the Mongolians had a large army behind him, the Slave Army would definitely suffer a lot of casualties in the close combat. Lu Deyin was already numb to Zhang Ping'an's scolding, and being scolded by his elder brother was a sign of intimacy.

Under the cover of the slaughter army, the slave army had already prepared, lit sixty buckets on Tushan Mountain and kicked them down. After the soldiers who were lightly loaded the buckets kicked off the happily jumping buckets, they ran east regardless of the slaughter. Sixty buckets exploded one after another incense stick, and the strong shock and explosion directly overturned the perpetrators to the ground to show punishment. Most of the walls on the east side of Mongolia's main camp collapsed, and basically no one of the five thousand Mongolian soldiers who were preparing to face the enemy behind the walls ran away.

Such a large-scale explosion could not avoid the damage of the shock even if it was hiding behind the fence of the camp in Bietu. The Mongols who were directly killed were around 2,000, and the other Mongolians who survived by chance were experiencing the pain of life worse than death. The Mongolian soldiers who were shocked could be said to have been favored by Changshengtian, at least they could not feel the pain on their bodies. The Mongolian soldiers who remained awake were not bleeding from seven holes, but were vomiting blood in big mouths. There was no Mongolian who could stand up.

Mr. Zhang, who was commanding the high platform to watch the battle, saw that the Mongolians lying on the ground in groups behind the bombed wall, couldn't help but raise their chins and show off at Ru Deyin: "How is it! Your brother, I think the enemy is like a god. I have seen through this Taoist Technique of the Mongolian Tartars long ago! Please hurry up and make me think about something else."

"Okay! Brother, just look at it. I, Rudeyin, have never been lenient in dealing with the Mongolian Tartars!"

After Lu Deyin said that, he waved the order flag again. The ghost sword team, which had been prepared for a long time, quickly approached the wall of the Mongolians east like a tide. The fallen dogs were always relaxed and happy. The ghost sword team helped the injured Mongolian soldiers escape from the pain without much effort. The soldiers of the Pou Nu Army happily cut and killed the Mongolian soldiers who had no ability to resist, and implemented the highest instructions of Zhang Dashui that the dead Tartars were the good Tartars. The heads of the fallen Mongolian soldiers were all built into Jingguan.

But the more Zhang Zheng watched the battle, the more he could not understand the bear-like appearance of the Mongols during the war. The Pou Slave Army who rushed into the village wall were chopping and killing the wounded soldiers. The second guardrail wall of the Mongolians was only about seventy feet between the first guardrail wall. Why not use cavalry to quickly rush through such a short distance to fight with the Pou Slave Army, but just waited foolishly for the Pou Slave Army to complete the team and then attack the next guardrail wall. Zhang Ping'an used a high-power telescope to see that the ready Mongolian soldiers lined up behind the second guardrail wall. The sword and shield soldiers were in front of the archers behind, which was a standard hand-to-hand combat formation.

The strange thing is that the Mongolians did not put away the tent behind the wall. These tents were obviously a bit hindering to the formation of soldiers. Could it be that the Mongols forgot this? As a veteran in the battlefield, Zhang Ping'an certainly would not think that the Mongols were stupid, especially at this critical moment of life and death, the Mongols would not make such low-level mistakes. For the tents that were uneven in the military formation, perhaps the Mongols were playing tricks. Even Zhang Ping'an was old in the war, he did not see the difference between the tents here and the Mongols when they usually set up camp.

Yang Wei, the leader of the artillery team of the Pou Nu Army, began to fire and position live ammunition to establish the attack area of ​​the artillery team. The Pou Nu Army artillery team is located one and a half miles east of the first guardrail wall of Mongolian camp. The artillery position is like blooming plum blossoms, forming three artillery groups. Zhang Ping'an, who was watching the battle, felt something was wrong when he saw the live ammunition being bounced. The artillery position arranged by Yang Wei can definitely be called a classic. The bounce point is right before and after the second guardrail wall, which can effectively support the attack of the Ghost Sword Team. When the Mongolian soldiers saw the live ammunition drop, they immediately retreated. The experience of fighting with the Pou Nu Army repeatedly told the Mongolians that a large-scale offensive battle against the Pou Nu Army was about to begin.

The front-line commander Lu Deyin also got off the command platform at this time. He wanted to go directly to the front-line to command on the spot. Just as Lu Deyin said goodbye to Zhang Ping'an, Zhang Ping'an grabbed Lu Deyin's shoulder with his right hand and pointed his finger on the battlefield. "Deyin, you can use some tricks when commanding the Ghost Sword Team to attack. The troops will be loose in front and tight in the back. Liangliang, your beautiful thighs will seduce the Mongolians first. I want to see what Mongolians have in the next moves!"

Ru Deyin deeply understood his elder brother's intention of tactics, which was to use feint attacks to lure Mongolia into ambush and reveal his horse's feet, and then find a solution based on the trap set by the Mongolians. Ru Deyin, who walked off the command platform, put up his armor after getting on the horse, and led thirty personal guards to the front line. As soon as Ru Deyin arrived at the front line, he began to arrange military formations. The Ghost Sword Team was divided into 300 small teams, and loose formations were arranged with the Ghost Sword Hand as the center to move closer to the Mongolian military formation step by step. When the Mongolian cavalry could no longer bear the charge and counterattack behind the guard wall, the * of the Yang Wei artillery Team of the Possess Army roared.

In this round, three thousand Mongolian cavalrymen who participated in the counterattack danced around the splashing shrapnel. The cavalry and their mounts cut through the shrapnel, either soaring or falling off their horses' hooves and throwing them into their masters, and they fell to the ground and swayed their horses' hooves with bones. None of their masters could stand up to fight back, and the uninjured warriors retreated one after another. Even the uninjured warriors were frightened by the terrifying war scenes and fled on the battlefield in a rage.

Seeing the counterattack of the Mongolian cavalry, it completely collapsed under the attack of the artillery team of the Po Nu Army. The general Zhang, who was watching the battle, felt sad for Lin Danhan from the bottom of his heart. This Lin Danhan still seemed to have not learned the lessons of the last defeat, and he didn't even get the training to prevent the explosion and frighten the war horses, and he was embarrassed to let the Mongolian soldiers go to the battlefield. However, Zhang Ping'an was still extremely satisfied with the results he wanted to see. He was very impressed by the tactics of Yang Wei's artillery team covering the battlefield on a large scale. If the Mongolian cavalry continued to fight like this, the Po Nu Army would soon meet Lin Danhan.

But Zhang Ping'an's good mood did not last long. When the Ghost Sword Team commanded by Rudeyin was still thirty feet away from Mongolia's second defense line, hundreds of large yurts behind the guard wall were overturned, revealing the counterattack weapon hidden inside. The Mongolian soldiers had already prepared everything. The large grass ball weighing hundreds of pounds was ignited. Accompanied by the whining sound of people's scalp tightening and the whimpering sound of the counterweight frame falling, the rising fireball dragged the black smoke toward the Pou Slave Army's Ghost Sword Team sixty feet away.

Seeing the Mongolians showing off their sharp weapons again, Zhang Ping'an on the tower felt a twitching in his heart. It seemed that he could not underestimate his opponent. Three thousand Mongolian cavalry was a bait for death. He wanted to seduce the Mongolians, but he didn't expect that the Mongolians also wanted to seduce the Pou Nu Army. The Pou Nu Army was not afraid of arrows and injuries in wars, nor was he afraid of close combat, but he was afraid of fire attack. The reason was that there was a problem with the armor material designed by Zhang Dashuai. The Pou Nu Army's standard armor was good, but the biggest weakness was that the fire prevention ability was some insufficient. Once the enemy used fire attack, the Pou Nu Army had to retreat.

In addition to the weakness of armor, the ammunition they carry with them is also a hidden danger. Once the ammunition encounters an open fire, it will explode. Although a single column ammunition cannot kill anyone, the Borgian Army carried fifty rounds of ammunition in every infantry battle. It is really a matter of life to explode so many ammunitions together. I don’t know what the Mongols loaded the fireball. As long as it touched people, a big fire would ignite. The soldiers of the Borgian Army surrounded by the fire instantly turned into a crazy flowing fireball.

About 300 soldiers of the Ghost Sword Team of the Pou Nu Army were ignited by the fire, but their teammates were just helping to get the fire. Fortunately, the Pou Nu Army usually has fire extinguishing training, and the battlefield is full of sand and soil. The shield hands of the Ghost Sword Team used the sharp hem of the wooden shield to dig loose sand and soil, and other brothers of the same team piled up soil to put out the fire. Unfortunately, many of the Ghost Sword Team's musket soldiers were ignited by the fire. The musket ammunition they carried was roasted by high temperature and then exploded, giving the fire-fighting soldiers a second kill.

When he saw the fireball cast by the Mongols landing and rolling out of the sea of ​​fire, the soldiers of the Po Nu Army suffered heavy casualties. About seven or eight hundred officers and soldiers were struggling in the sea of ​​fire. Zhang Ping'an's centipede face was instantly red with anger, and then his heart was filled with shame and self-blame. The general was incompetent and exhausted the three armies. It was the mistakes of these officers who caused huge casualties to the Po Nu Army. Fortunately, Chen Pi sounded the horn to retreat. Otherwise, with the character of the Po Nu Army's defeat, the more they had to fight back, the subsequent casualties would have to be large.

The retreat of the Ponu Army, for the Mongols who had been defeated in a row, this victory undoubtedly increased their morale and allowed the Mongols to see that the myth of the Ponu Army's invincibility had been shattered. Seeing the hopeful army's fighting spirit was high, just as the Ponu Army's heavy armored infantry ghost sword team evacuated the battlefield with the wounded, three thousand Mongolian cavalry rushed out from behind the guard wall again. They wanted to take advantage of the Ponu Army's defeat to give the Ponu Army more damage. The strong Ponu Army artillery team was not ruthless this time. They were ready to launch again when the Mongols were concentrated in the camp gate entering the battlefield.

When the Mongolian cavalry left the guard wall less than ten feet, the fire of the Ponu Army's crossbow cannon fell on their heads. Yang Wei was extremely experienced with the cannon. He first ordered small-scale artillery to break up the formation of the Mongolian cavalry, and then repeatedly hammered the Mongolian attacking cavalry with uninterrupted artillery fire. After three rounds of shooting, the fire on the battlefield was blown out, and the 3,000 cavalrymen attacked by the Mongols remained. In view of the huge losses in this attack, Chen Peng, deputy commander of the Ponu Army, suspended today's offensive operations.

As the commander of the first army, Zhang Ping'an did not leave the command platform, but was reflecting on the shortcomings of the attack arrangement of the Po Slave Army. As the Mongolians used the outdated weapon of the catapult cart, Zhang Ping'an was also thinking about solutions. He was preparing to launch another attack on the main Mongolian camp when the Po Slave Army was fully prepared. (To be continued)
