I

Anyway, just one sentence: whoever wins will help, as long as you keep your own private soldiers.

Historically, this guy has been fighting until the end, and he actually became the king of Yarkand.It's a pity that even the last king is not counted, just like the emperor of the small court of Nanming, he can only entertain himself in a corner.

But the cavalry of Datong did not allow him to be in the swing position. Qin Liangyu's grandson Ma Wannian led a division of cavalry to follow up.

Three thousand five hundred Xiao cavalry rushed out first, intending to disrupt the battlefield and create a wall charge opportunity for the Yi cavalry who had already lined up.

Abdullah Shit's private cavalry consisted of only three or four hundred men, all of whom wore iron armor.In addition, he was accompanied by two thousand Turpan noble cavalry.Seeing Datong Xiaoqi rushing towards him, this guy didn't want to fight at all, and turned around and ran away with his private soldiers. He only had his own private soldiers in his eyes.

You can lose this battle, but your private soldiers must not suffer losses.

Abdullah Shit was the commander of the cavalry, and if he suddenly led his troops away, it would definitely cause bad consequences.

At first, the nobles thought he was flying a kite. After all, it is very normal for cavalry to cruise back and forth.But gradually, something was wrong, and Abdullah Shit retreated further and further, exposing the flanks of the remaining friendly cavalry to the front of the cavalry of Datong.

Seeing this, Ma Wannian immediately ordered: "Blow the horn quickly, the brave cavalry should stop chasing, turn around and cut off the remaining enemy cavalry!"

"Woooooo~~~~"

The horns whimpered, and the chasing cavalry received orders to slow down.Almost slowing down, they collectively drew a beautiful arc, turned towards the remaining enemy cavalry and killed them.

Ma Wannian shouted again: "The remaining Xiao cavalry, charge from the left. Yi cavalry, charge frontally! Dragoons, withdraw from the battlefield, and together with the Qinghai cavalry, go around and block the enemy's rear!"

All the Datong cavalry were in motion, and the charge from the waist had already made the enemy cavalry flustered.Another dispatch of the brave cavalry was to intercept and reduce the range of activities of the enemy cavalry.

Three thousand Yi cavalry formed a wall and rushed over overwhelmingly.

Even the remaining fanatic cavalry were terrified when they saw this formation, and subconsciously dodged to the side to escape.

The enemy cavalry units were completely scattered by the rush.

The two valiant cavalry speeded up instantly, taking the opportunity to kill the enemy who had lost their organization.The enemy's cavalry was completely cut off, and it seemed that they were only slightly inferior in number, but they were surrounded on some battlefields. One noble cavalry often had to deal with ten Datong cavalry.

The dragoons and Qinghai cavalry ignored the battlefield completely and went around the rear of the enemy infantry formation from the outside.

Abdullah Shit felt that he had lost, and wanted to go back and stab his brother in the back.But when he found that the dragon cavalry and Qinghai cavalry were "chasing", he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and he didn't even have a chance to turn against him.

It is not easy to betray the water on the battlefield. One is a communication problem, and the other is a trust problem.

If Abdullah Shit doesn't run away directly, but chooses to backstab the whole team.It is possible that he was taken by the Chinese cavalry who were chasing him before he could attack his own brother.

In desperation, Abdullah Shit could only continue to escape.

As he fled, he became farther and farther away from the battlefield, and there were more than [-] private soldiers and noble cavalry around him.These guys simply stopped fighting and fled directly to Turpan, first releasing their father Babai Khan who was under house arrest.Whether to surrender or flee to Aksu is up to Babai Khan to make up his mind.

Toulontai was completely panicked, and the situation on the battlefield changed too quickly.

The younger brother fled, the cavalry collapsed, and his rear was cut off.However, several troops of the former army were bombarded by 100 artillery pieces, and their formation was already in disarray. He could only bite the bullet and lead the whole army to charge.

You must charge, you cannot retreat, and you cannot stand still, otherwise the army may collapse directly.

In fact there are already deserters.

Some soldiers couldn't bear the pressure of the artillery, turned around and fled in fright, and were cut down by Toulontai's law enforcement team.

Under the threat of Turontai, the soldiers of Turpan and Hami reluctantly rushed towards the Datong Army.

"Tiger squatting cannon forward!"

More than 200 tiger crouching guns were carried by the soldiers to the back of the car formation.

When the enemy army rushed halfway, they were bombarded by a hundred artillery pieces, and soldiers kept running away in fear.After gradually approaching, more than 200 tiger squatting guns were divided into two groups to fire shotguns in turn, and several enemy troops collapsed on the spot.

"Bang bang bang!"

Then there was another volley of muskets, and the thick gunpowder smoke hadn't dissipated yet, and the enemy troops rushing to the front had all collapsed.

Even if they can continue to charge, they will face the obstruction of the chariot formation, and there will be grenadiers behind the chariot formation.

The Xiao cavalry and Yi cavalry did not attack the enemy infantry, mainly because they were afraid of being accidentally injured by their own firepower.They focused on chasing and killing the scattered enemy cavalry, and the enemy infantry was dealt with by dragoons and Qinghai cavalry.

"Dong dong dong dong!"

For Jiang Liang's central army, the drums of war suddenly sounded.

Then there was another burst of bugles, and the big synchronous soldiers charged collectively with bayonets, chasing and killing the defeated enemy troops, and dispersing those enemy troops that had not completely collapsed.

The dragoons and Qinghai cavalry who circled to the rear also charged towards Toulontai's central army.

"Run away!"

Toulontai, who was frightened by more than 200 tiger squatting cannons, finally came to his senses at this time, and fled with dozens of horse-riding guards.

As soon as the commander fled, the Chinese army was in chaos.

The dragoons first rushed up to fire their guns, and they stopped loading bullets. Instead, they drew their sabers and led the Qinghai cavalry to kill them at close range.

The Qinghai cavalry is a temporary formation of miscellaneous troops. The soldiers come from dozens of tribes in Qinghai, Tibetan, Hui, Tu, Salar, Mongolian... There are more than 20 ethnic minorities.

It is definitely not possible to let them fight tough battles, and they must want to preserve their strength.

But it is very useful to fight with the wind. When they charged, they were more heroic than the dragoons.The chaotic Toulontai Chinese Army collapsed after being charged by the Qinghai cavalry, and then faced various ethnic minority weapons.

The dragoons didn't bother to take care of those routs, and handed them over to the Qinghai cavalry, and turned to hunt and kill Toulontai who fled to the Gobi.

The dragoons only wore light armor, and they were extremely fast. They chased for several miles, and finally caught up with Toulontai.

This person is not only reckless, but also fearless of death.Seeing that he couldn't escape, he reined in his horse and stopped, leading dozens of guard cavalry to charge back towards more than 1000 dragoons.

"The warriors of Yarkand must die on the battlefield!"

Toulontai raised his spear and roared, dozens of guard cavalry also roared, but no one escaped.

The dragoons also stopped, sitting on horseback to load ammunition.

When Toulontai led the guards approaching, hundreds of cavalry who had already loaded their ammunition shot at the dozens of enemies one after another.

"I don't agree!"

Toulontai was not shot, but his steed was.

This is a bad fall, but he stood up quickly again.He wanted to have a bloody battle before he died, but the dragoons didn't give him a chance, and they had to use muskets to fight dozens of more than 1000 soldiers.

Those cavalry guards fell off their horses one after another, and there were still a few of them, who miraculously survived even with their horses.They were baptized by the hail of bullets, and they no longer had the courage to charge, so they pulled the reins and continued to turn and run away.

More dragoons loaded their ammunition and shot at the survivors, killing them all.

"Captured."

The dragoons came up on horseback.

Toulontai and another guard were standing back to back.

He glanced at the Datong dragoons, then suddenly pulled out the scimitar, wiped it on his own neck, and left his last words before he died: "The last warrior of Yarkand finally died at the hands of the cunning enemy."

Although this person is a bit crazy, compared with other nobles in Yarkand, he still deserves a little bit of respect.

On the frontal battlefield, the disintegrated noble cavalry had been hunted down by the Datong cavalry.

The Qinghai cavalry was chasing and killing the scattered infantry, as long as they were still fleeing, they would be able to catch up with a knife.Sometimes those who had already surrendered were chopped down. Even if the ones who were killed were serf soldiers, Jiang Liang would not stop them—after all, if there were no more deaths on the battlefield, how could there be enough land for the Han immigrants?

Erbedura from Hami had two arrows stuck in his back, which were left by the cavalrymen.

This guy has already regretted it. He should listen to his father and surrender to the Datong Army in Hami.I was obsessed with ghosts, so I ran to Turpan and followed Toulontai to fight.

Fuck it!

Whoosh!

Another arrow was shot, Ebei Dula subconsciously fell down, but he didn't think it was the arrow hit by the horse under his crotch.

The horse sped up in pain, its front hooves stepped on the Gobi stones, and the horse and man fell forward.

The future King Hami had his left leg pressed down by a war horse.He was terrified and shouted to surrender, but he saw a few cavalrymen chasing him, drawing their bows in unison, setting up arrows, and shooting at him at a distance of two or three meters.

The military order is to keep no nobles, and the armor on Abedura's body shows that he is a big noble.

The fanatic cavalry were all dead. They rushed too far, and those people were the first to be surrounded and killed.

Corpses were strewn all over the battlefield, stretching for several miles, and more than 3 were cut by the array. The knives of the Qinghai cavalry were all blunted.

The enemy's rout could not escape at all, because the Datong Army had too many cavalry.At the end of the escape, they were completely unable to run. Thousands of people knelt down and begged for mercy, and those in armor were picked out and immediately executed.

The serf soldiers who could not be approved had a hope of survival.

Chapter 1047 [The Trampled King]

Turpan.

Babai Khan, who was under house arrest, regained his freedom. He asked, "lost?"

"We lost," Abdullah Shit said hastily, with lingering fear, "the Han army is too powerful, their artillery is innumerable, and their cavalry is braver than the Mongolian cavalry. I don't know what my brother thinks , even if you want to resist, you should defend the city, how can you fight in the wild?"

Babai Khan said: "Send an envoy to ask for surrender."

Abdullah Shit said worriedly: "But the Han army massacred nobles everywhere, and we fought a battle. I'm afraid we won't be forgiven."

Babai Khan asked: "Otherwise? Where are we fleeing to? Now there are two kings in Yarkand, and Aksu is the closest to us. Are we going to flee to Aksu? Your cousin is a puppet king, and he can't decide anything." , has long been controlled by Hezhuo. Do you think Aksu can defend the Han soldiers if they kill them?"

Abdullah Shit was silent.

Babai Khan asked again: "How many troops do we have?"

Abdullah Shit said: "Many of the nobles, civilians and serfs in Turpan and its surrounding areas were conscripted by my brother to fight. I only brought back a few hundred cavalry, and there were more than 300 soldiers in the city. If they were forcibly recruited, they should You can also summon one or two thousand civilians."

Babai Khan said: "Tell the nobles who came back with you that if they don't want to surrender, they should flee to Aksu as soon as possible."

The Datong Army came very quickly, and only half a day later, thousands of vanguard troops had arrived in Turpan.

Babai Khan took his family and ministers, opened the city gate and knelt down to surrender, but was detained by the vanguard general Liang Zhen.

Liang Zhen is a Mongolian descendant from Jeju Island. He once led his troops to pursue Duoduo, and now he is also the deputy commander.He led troops to control Turpan Castle, immediately sent someone back to report, and then questioned Babai Khan: "Before I resisted stubbornly, how can I surrender now?"

Babai Khan explained: "I was going to surrender, but my son put me under house arrest."

"It's really a loving father and a filial son," Liang Zhen couldn't help laughing and said, "The nobles who fought against our army before, their families are here?"

Babai Khan said: "I heard that the front line was defeated, and many people fled to Aksu."

Liang Zhen's smile narrowed: "You are dishonest. You must have decided to surrender yourself, and let those people escape early!"

"Don't dare, they escaped by themselves." Babai Khan quibbled.

Liang Zhen called his lieutenant general: "Lead two thousand cavalry and chase west immediately. Those noble families, men, women, old and young, and a lot of money, must have not gone far at this moment. Since you are running away, you must With other thoughts in mind, all the men will be killed, only the women and children will survive."

"Yes!"

Lieutenant General Zhong Qi immediately led two thousand light cavalry to chase west along the wheel marks.

It was evening now, and I didn't dare to run too fast at night. Fortunately, the roads along the way were relatively flat.After chasing for two hours, they stopped to rest, fed salt water and bean cakes to the horses, and then slept in place to wait for dawn.

In the dim light of the morning, the pursuit continued, and in the middle of the morning, they finally caught up with the fleeing team.

There are hundreds of noble cavalrymen here, as well as countless wives and children of the nobles, some of whom even took servants on the road, and carts and carts full of goods.Many rural nobles were even reluctant to part with their cattle and sheep, and fled westward with their livestock.

Hearing the sound of horseshoes coming from behind, the hundred or so noble cavalrymen immediately said to their family members, "Go, everything is gone!"

These guys ran away on horseback, leaving behind countless old and weak women and children.

The outcasts, the males in their families, basically died on the battlefield.

Zhong Qi led troops to kill, leaving a hundred cavalry behind to guard the prisoners who stayed where they were.Many old and weak women and children scattered and fled to the Gobi Desert, and [-] cavalry were responsible for chasing them.The remaining one thousand and one hundred cavalry, under the leadership of Zhong Qi, chased after the hundred or so noble cavalry.

The noble cavalrymen were still following their families, and they couldn't run fast at all. Seeing that the pursuers were getting closer, they finally ignored their wives and children, left their relatives and waved their whips to speed up and flee.

Zhong Qi stopped chasing and went back to clean up the scene.

The male captives, who were dressed in better fabrics, were beheaded on the spot without distinguishing between indiscriminate and indiscriminate.Only slaves, women and children can survive, slaves will be released as free people, women and children will be arranged for bachelors who will immigrate in the future.

Turpan side.

Jiang Liang finally arrived and said to Babai Khan: "If you surrender early, you can keep your property. But if you surrender late, take your family and go to Liaoning to become a commoner. Except for a change of clothes, nothing else Bring, the government will provide you with food along the way."

"Thank you General for saving your life!" Babai Khan breathed a sigh of relief. He has a cowardly character, as long as he can save his life.

Even if the nobles of the Western Regions can survive, they cannot stay here, otherwise they will be the source of turmoil.The imperial court has long made a decree that the foreigners in the Western Regions should only keep the common people, because the common people have little culture and no social influence, which is convenient for the next enlightenment work.

After Jiang Liang occupied Turpan, he did not march immediately.

While resting the army, they sent out small groups of troops to sweep the surrounding castles and villages.

There are still a few nobles who still control the place.

For example, in Shanshan, there is still a castle, and Hezhuo in it did not follow Toulontai to the expedition.When the Datong army passed through the castle, Hezhuo sent people out to negotiate terms, and he would only surrender if he kept his power.

This guy also incited the people, and the civilians in the streets outside the city all poured into the castle to stand firm.
