907 Accidental Death

In the northeast of the battlefield of Fort Minway, I saw Ottoman cavalry running towards their own formation.

One rider, two rider, three rider...

More and more people immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Kopululu naturally got reminded by his subordinates. After turning his head to look, he immediately frowned. He couldn't figure out what was going on?

Needless to say, the cavalry coming here should be the army he sent out to plunder the north. Judging from their appearance, they did not come back to report the news, but fled back. How could this be possible!

Logically speaking, he sent out a large army of 50,000, while the Ming army had only 20,000 troops at most. The Ming army was so powerful that it could defeat far more troops than theirs so quickly?

To be honest, Kopululu didn't believe it. However, more and more horsemen were running here desperately, and these signs showed that it seemed that they were defeated!

This situation eventually became the most eye-catching thing on the battlefield of Fort Minway. Even the two sides who were fighting temporarily separated from each other, and then looked to the northeast, not understanding what new situation was happening.

As the saying goes, stand high and see far.

Hong Chengchou was on the top of the Castle of Minway and stared at the northeast with a telescope. He was the first to see the figures of Ming soldiers wearing red battle robes behind the brigade of defeated Ottoman Empire.

There is no doubt that the Ming army won and was chasing the enemy.

To be honest, Hong Chengchou was also a little surprised at this time. The intercepting army he sent should not have such high combat power!

Although he couldn't figure it out, it was obvious that the Ming army was chasing the enemy, but it was impossible to be wrong. So he immediately sent an order to clarify this.

After hearing this, the Ming soldiers on Fort Mingwei cheered and their morale suddenly increased.

The shouts of "Ming Dynasty's Ten Thousand Victories" sounded one after another.

But then, more mystery emerged.

In just a while, the Ming army in the Ming Fort Ming and Ottoman army could see more and more chasing Ming army.

Although there are more than ten thousand people, there is endless. However, the number difference between the 20,000 cavalry and 50,000 cavalry is still very large. When the dense Ming cavalry was seen, everyone was stunned: So many Ming cavalry have come?

Some people soon thought about whether the Ming army had been waiting for a long time. Before they could doubt it, the imperial flag representing Emperor Chongzhen appeared.

The Ottoman army did not recognize it at once, but Hong Chengchou knew it. He saw it clearly before others through the telescope.

Suddenly, even though Hong Chengchou was an old guy, he became excited immediately. He refused to put down his telescope, stared at the imperial flag, and said loudly: "Emperor... The Emperor has arrived! The Emperor has led the army to kill..."

After being reminded, more and more Ming army soldiers also confirmed it. An iron-like fact was confirmed again: when the emperor arrived, the enemy would urinate!

Suddenly, a huge cheer sounded from the Ming army in Fort Mingwei immediately: "Long live my emperor! Long live my emperor!"

At the beginning, the sounds continued one after another, but soon, the Ming soldiers shouted: "Long live my emperor!"

In contrast to the Ming army, the morale of the Ottoman army suddenly plummeted. With the shouts of the Ming soldiers, their morale dropped to the bottom.

Keplulu was a little stunned! He never expected that the Emperor of Ming would really lead the army. Not only that, but fortunately, he was still alive. While the two armies were fighting, he drove the defeated army over. This was a double blow to his troops.

In a hurry, Keprulu had no time to think too much, and immediately issued an order to shrink the army and withdraw the part of the army that was fighting with the Ming army. In addition, he gathered elite troops to prevent the Ming reinforcements and guided the defeated soldiers from attacking the original formation.

His military order is theoretically feasible. However, this is only theoretically.

The Ottoman army was already panicked at this time. Thinking about the legends about the Ming emperor, looking at the endless Ming cavalry that was constantly attacking, listening to the panicked shouts of the defeated soldiers, how many soldiers could they strictly implement Kepulu's military orders?

Hong Chengchou was also a qualified commander with vision. Seeing the movement of reinforcements, he immediately understood what the emperor had planned. So he also rushed over. With a command, all the troops were sent out by him to attack the enemy in front of them.

"Kill..."

"The Ming Dynasty's victory..."

"Long live my emperor..."

The chanting of the Ming soldiers could not cover up even the rumbling sound of iron hooves, and they hit the hearts of the Ottoman army.

Under the attack of two Ming troops, the servants in the Ottoman army could not withstand the first one, and fled behind the defeated soldiers who had fled back.

This is the most taboo thing on the battlefield. Once someone retreats, it will immediately shake the morale of the army and cause the entire army to collapse.

In this case, it must be stopped as soon as possible.

However, the elite troops in Kopullu's hands almost all reached the top, and even if he sent the remaining elites to prevent the army from disintegrating, it would be too late. Whoever made his army too large would take a lot of time in the past.

In this way, more and more Ottoman army began to flee. In the end, it fell like a dam burst, affecting the other Ottoman army and all fled back.

Seeing all this, Kopulu Lusha was there, motionless.

His personal guards looked at their prime minister with the naked eye, and his spirit was extremely depressed, as if he had been sucked away by something.

The energetic prime minister turned into a depressed old man, and then became a withered and dying old man.

These personal guards understood that defeat in this battle means that the Eastern Expedition was defeated. This would have a great blow to their Prime Minister, which would have become like this.

However, this was not the time to comfort them, and they all started to urge each of them anxiously.

"Sir, please retreat quickly. If you don't leave, it will be too late!"

"Yes, run away quickly, the empire cannot do without adults!"

“…”

Hearing their noise, Keplulu came to his senses and couldn't help but smile: How could an old man, half-in-law, escape the pursuit of the Ming army?

Besides, what if you escape back? The army is thrown here and the main force is destroyed, and other troops cannot withstand the counterattack of the Ming army. In the country, when you hear the news of defeat, there will definitely be chaos.

In the court, those forces that were suppressed by him will definitely counterattack, and the fate of escaping will definitely not be better than here!

Thinking of this, Kopululu pulled out the dagger for decoration on his waist and wanted to commit suicide.

However, his personal guards would not let him go and quickly seized his dagger. No matter how he protested, they drove his horse and started running too much.

Even though he was a man when he was young, time had been killing a pig, and he had already killed Kopululu. After being bumped by the fast horse, he couldn't sit still and was about to go crazy.

Of course, his personal guards were all very skilled elites. Seeing this, the personal guard commander immediately jumped onto his horse, hugged Kopulu from behind, and took him to escape with him.

The central army is naturally behind. Of course, they will run faster than the others when they escape.

Bienomon sent Kopruluo to each other and escaped twenty miles in one breath. He felt a little safer before stopping to take a breath.

"Sir, do you want to get off the horse for a while?"

As the question was made, the guard leader felt something was wrong and hurriedly held Keplulu and dismounted to check the situation.

"Ah" screamed, and the personal guard was stunned.

The other guards surrounded him and looked at him and were shocked to find that their Prime Minister, Kopululu, had already been killed by a horse. Judging from his expression, it seemed that he was still the kind of death that was more painful.

At this time, they finally realized that the Prime Minister's physical condition could not withstand the rushing horses at all. I guess he was very uncomfortable before and wanted to dismount. But everyone was running for life, the rumbling horse hooves and the Ming army's shouts of killing, who cares about this? So the Prime Minister was tragic...

Look at these guards, look at me, and I look at you, they all look panicked, don’t know what to do?

At this moment, the shouts of the Ming army behind him became clearer and clearer, and more defeated soldiers passed by them and fled to the south.

I don’t know who it was, but suddenly shouted, and ignored everything, and immediately turned over and ran away to run away.

When the other guards saw this, they ignored it and immediately fled south. If they were slow to move, they would become the target for others to attract the Ming army.

When the personal guards met, they looked at the accomplices who fled south, and then looked at the Ming cavalry chasing from the north. They called out "ah ah ah" and finally knelt beside the body of Keplulu and surrendered.

The main force of the Ottoman Empire's North Road, among the more than 100,000 troops, was the most infantry, and no matter how they escaped, they would never be able to escape.

In the pursuit of the Ming cavalry, they easily harvested their heads at the beginning, but later, these Ottoman soldiers came to their senses and knelt down and begged for mercy.

When it was almost evening and the Ming cavalry stopped pursuing, the land was filled with cheers from the Ming soldiers.

According to preliminary statistics, the Chongzhen Emperor who had arrived here in Fort Mingwei was soon reported: In this battle, more than 23,000 enemies were killed, and more than 113,000 enemies were captured.

If the Ming army did not count the previous war, but only today's war, there would be more than 1,000 casualties. It can be said that this was a complete victory!
