Li Laoer was approaching the place where Ajige besieged Zhao Lujiao, hiding in a small woods two miles away from the Jin army, observing the battle between Zhao Lujiao and Ajige from afar.

The Jin army had already surrounded the Ming army's retreat. Zhao Rujiao, who was sixty years old, was a veteran on the battlefield. He knew that he had no way to escape, so he led less than two thousand Ming troops to guard a high slope to welcome the attack of the Jin army.

"Look, Jiannu has launched an attack again!" Zhang Wei pointed to the battlefield where Ming and Jin sides fought and whispered in Li Laoer's ear.

Li Laoer looked towards the battlefield and saw that the Jin army launched an attack on Zhao Rujiao again. The first one was the Mongolian light cavalry. The black Mongolian cavalry shouted and rushed towards the remaining Guanning Iron Cavalry. However, the Mongolians did not directly hit the Guanning Iron Cavalry with thick armor. Instead, they immediately separated the formation and spread out to both sides before they were about to hit. The cavalry bows in their hands shot rows of arrows.

Every round of arrow rain in the Mongolians covered the sky and the sun, falling like rain. Many Guanning Iron Cavalry were already covered with arrows. Although the Mongolians' arrows could not break the Ning Iron Cavalry's armor, the war horses under the crotch of the Ming cavalry were not protected. Li Laoer saw with his own eyes that many war horses under the crotch of the cavalry suddenly fell down, and the Ming cavalry on the horse fell off the horse.

Zhao Rujiao pointed forward with a steel knife in his hand, and nearly two thousand Guanning iron cavalry charged from high to low, rushing towards the Mongolian cavalry with only leather armor on their bodies.

The Mongols knew that they were light cavalry and could not touch the Guanning Iron Cavalry head-on, so the Mongols immediately dispersed. Most of the Mongolian cavalry escaped the Guanning Iron Cavalry's desperate rush, and only a few were knocked off the horse. The three-eyed guns in the Guanning Iron Cavalry's hands fired, and some Mongolian soldiers with relatively close distances were dropped one after another.

"Minggou rushed to the Mongolians. Their horsepower has been exhausted. It's our turn to get on!" Ajige, wearing a white helmet and white armor, pulled out his golden sword and pointed in the direction of Zhao Rujiao.

"Kill the Ming Dog!" The heavy cavalry of the Alihachaoha camp, wearing heavy armor, rushed out like a whirlwind, and thousands of horse hooves stepped on the ground, making a thunderous roar. The Jurchen cavalry wearing multiple armor, holding tiger spears and long swords, moved, their momentum was different from the Mongolian light cavalry.

Zhao Rujiao secretly regretted that the Ming cavalry had lost its horsepower at this time, and all the three-eyed guns that could control the thick armor of the Jurchen were shot, and it was too late to load them again.

There were no special archers for the one thousand Guanning Iron Cavalry, only Zhao Shujiao, his guerrilla generals, as well as officers at all levels, and the officers' servants carried bows and arrows. About 200 Ming troops took bows and arrows and shot several rounds of long arrows at the Jin army.

The arrows fell like rain. The charge of the Jin army Alihachaoha camp turned a blind eye to the oncoming arrows and continued to charge towards the Ming army. The arrows stabbed the Jin soldiers and could not break their defenses. Only a few Jin cavalry horses were shot overturned, lifting the heavy armored knights on the horses off their horses.

"Quick! Dismount all the horses and put the horses in front to block Jiannu!" Zhao Rujiao ordered anxiously.

The servants around him shook the small flag and commanded the remaining Guanning Iron Cavalry to dismount and fight, placing the horses on the periphery as meat shields to resist the impact of the Jin army's heavy cavalry. Because at this time, the Guanning Army's war horses had lost their horsepower, and the cavalry that had lost their horsepower was not as good as infantry. If they still rode on horses, they could only wait for death. It would be better to let the war horses squat down and push them in front as meat shields, which could delay the impact of the Jin army's heavy cavalry.

The Jurchen cavalry had already rushed up. A group of Jurchen cavalry rushing in front bumped into the war horses pushed outside by the Ming army. The war horses that were hit made a sad neighing sound and were knocked back. The powerful impact force also injured the Jurchen cavalry war horses in front. The Jurchen soldiers gave up the injured war horses. They jumped off the war horses, picked up heavy weapons such as maces, big axes, hammers, and other heavy weapons, and screamed and rushed into the Guanning Army formation.

The Ming army's cavalry was forced to become infantry, but the Jin army took the initiative to turn the cavalry into infantry, and entered the Ming army formation on foot, using their close combat that they were good at, knocking down a Ming army whose physical strength was about to be exhausted to the ground.

Under the protection of dozens of servants, Zhao Rujiao rushed left and right and finally repelled the Jin army's attack. But he knew very well that the most powerful white-armored soldiers of the Jin army had not yet been dispatched. As long as the Jin army launched another round of attack and a group of white-armored soldiers came up, he and his servants could not withstand it.

Seeing the Ming army soldiers around Zhao Ruo Cult, Li Lao Er felt heartbroken. He wanted to rush out and lure Ajige, 15,000 Jurchens and Mongols away, so that Zhao Ruo Cult had a chance to escape. But reason told him that he could not be impulsive, and even if he rushed out, Zhao Ruo Cult might not be able to break through the siege. Once he was discovered by the Jin soldiers, the Mongols who were good at chasing on horseback would stare at him like maggots on the bones, chasing them all the way until they exhausted their horsepower and physical strength.

Li Laoer, who grew up on the grassland since childhood, naturally knew the ability of Mongolian cavalry to chase and kill. The army targeted by the Mongols, whether it was cavalry or infantry, was difficult to escape, unless he turned around and gave the Mongolians a heavy blow. But once he turned around, the overwhelming Jurchen cavalry would come up.

Li Laoer also remembered that he had read a novel on Qidian in his previous life, which was about a man who single-handedly led tens of thousands of cavalry from Ajige, allowing Zhao Rujiao to take the opportunity to break through. But he knew that it was just a novel after all, and the real situation was that he could not escape the pursuit of the Mongolian light cavalry alone! Because the Mongolians would not only pursue behind, but they would also divide their troops to pursue sideways, chase on flanks, and send people to intercept them in front. One person wanted to escape the pursuit of Mongolian cavalry, not to mention that one person had two horses, one person had three horses and one person could not escape.

Since there is no way to rescue Zhao Lu Sect, there is no need to trap himself and his brothers. At present, his strength is not strong enough. It is better to wait until he becomes strong in the future and settle the score with Jiannu.

"Let's go and leave here. If you have the chance to catch a small group of Jiannu, we will eat them in one bite." Li Laoer finally made up his mind and took the three hundred brothers to leave the battlefield where Mingjin fought.

"Brother, where are we going?" Li Hong asked.

"First go back to our city, summon your brothers and then go to the capital area. As long as we bring hundreds of Jiannu's heads, as well as the broken jade waist card of Manguertay and his golden-scabbed sword, we can ask for merit from the court. If the court is willing to recruit us, we will be the officers and soldiers of the court in the future."

When I heard that I was going to be invited by the imperial court, almost all the horse thieves couldn't help but feel excited because they were all from the Ming Dynasty. After all, the grassland outside the pass was not their home. The Ming Dynasty's hometown was inside the pass. When I returned to the Ming Dynasty, I felt like a wanderer who had been away from home for many years returned to my hometown.

But Li Laoer was not sure whether the court would accept him and this group of brothers.

Huang Taiji was attacking Zunhua fiercely, and Li Laoer did not have the ability to save Zunhua. He would die in vain when he went there. At most, he would die in one glance when he saw Huang Taiji. That was meaningless. Since he had come to this era, he had to find a way to change the darkest two hundred years of history later, rather than to die in a meaningless way.
