But why does Commander Gao Jie seem to have a very comfortable life? It seems like his tail is up, which is really weird! At the beginning, everyone thought Commander Gao would bargain with the chairman and turn down the task of defending the city? Everyone knows that Commander Gao is only interested in offense and has no interest in defense at all!

As a result, he had no reaction at all, just like nothing happened, and it really made everyone around him unable to understand it. This is not like Commander Gao’s character! He is the one who is unwilling to suffer any loss at all! Could it be that the Chairman, what secret did he teach Commander Gao? Or was Commander Gao criticized?

"What do you know?"

"Your vision should be longer!"

"It should be yours or yours, and even if you want to run away, you can't escape it!

Whenever the officers asked, Gao Jie responded in such a lukewarm and cold manner.

The officers looked at each other, not very clear. What does this longer-looking vision have to do with the guard Yaergan City. However, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand. As long as you strictly implement Commander Gao’s orders. Since the Chairman’s order is to defend the city, then defend the city in a regular manner. The Mastiff Cavalry has always been the first-class main force of the White-Clothed Army. Even if you are temporarily sent to defend the city, you have to act like this. Even if you guard the city, you will be the best guard.

Not only that, Gao Jie also ordered the troops to do their defense seriously and steadily, without any discounts. The Mastiff Cavalry was stationed outside the city of Yaergan City, and there was a temporary military camp. Gao Jie was very concerned about the various warnings of the military camp and patroled five or six times a day. The sentries on duty dared not be ashamed of Commander Gao.

Some officers wanted to be lazy, but were caught by Gao Jie. They were criticized so much that they almost failed to get rid of their posts. After being criticized, they would have three days of confinement. That's certain. If the circumstances were serious, fifteen days of confinement were possible. Moreover, this confinement did not depend on the level at all. If you accidentally, a captain was punished.

The captain was originally Gao Jie's confidant, and his usual combat performance was excellent. Xu Xingxia also valued him very much. However, this time, because he was not vigilant enough, he was in the hands of Gao Jie and did not receive any preferential treatment. As the captain, he had to increase the punishment. As a result, he stayed in the confinement room for fifteen days.

Everyone realized that the commander was really furious. Military law was definitely not a joke. Once strictly enforced, they would have to peel off even if they didn't die. Judging from the current situation, if they were in the hands of him, they would definitely be done. Moreover, judging from Gao Jie's methods of handling, they were mostly given the tacit approval of Xu Xingxia.

Since then, all the officers have never dared to be lazy anymore. They have done their defense work well and are not leaking. The sentry on duty have even opened their eyes wide and stared at the surroundings. Any movement can attract their repeated inspections. For a moment, everyone's hearts were raised to their throats.

High vigilance is definitely not useless. Soon, the soldiers of the Mastiff Cavalry realized that they might be involved in a war. The patrol scouts had collided with the scouts of the Ottoman cavalry for several days. Although the other party dispersed quickly, it is certain that the other party was definitely not good at the visitor.

"Sir, we found that there were enemy cavalry activities on the west side!"

Suddenly, the captain of the scout came in a hurry and reported an astonishing news.

Gao Jie quickly informed the entire army of this news. Judging from the scout's reconnaissance situation, it is very likely that the Ottoman cavalry troops appeared. Xu Xingxia was most worried about the Ottoman cavalry troops, and he had never known their exact location. Now, they were finally willing to show up.

"Come for us?"

"It must be for us!"

"Nonsense! There is only one unit nearby!"

The officers in the hall were not fools, and they reacted immediately.

Idiots can even imagine that the Ottoman cavalry appeared at this time and appeared near Yaergan City again, what exactly did they want to do. Their purpose was either to capture Yaergan City, or to destroy the Mastiff Cavalry. Or, it was both.

It turns out that Gao Jie asked them to do a solid job of defense and came prepared. Perhaps, the senior management of the White Army had long expected that the Ottoman team's cavalry would have such a move. The Mastiff Cavalry was waiting in Yaergan City to give the enemy a blow. This time, the fighting spirit of the officers was immediately raised.

I was paralyzed, and I was already feeling frustrated. Since you came to my door, don't blame me for being rude. With Gao Jie's order, the eight thousand soldiers of the Mastiff Cavalry immediately started to act in an orderly manner. The entire Yaergan City was immediately filled with a tense fighting atmosphere. People coming and going to carry ammunition were endless.

...

You are welcome to the White Army, and the Ottoman Cavalry are even more unpolite.

Biden almost made a military order in front of Mahmud, so his movements were very fast. In just three days, he gathered all the cavalry forces of the Ottoman Empire near the battlefield and launched an assault on Yaergan City. In this battle, he could only win, not lose, so rapid action was the key.

Of course, it is unrealistic to conceal all the details of the operation. Before the large army takes action, it is necessary to conduct a certain degree of reconnaissance and send a considerable number of scouts. These scouts are likely to encounter scouts from the White Army, thus exposing their own actions. This is impossible to completely avoid, and Biden does not take it seriously.

What he and Mahmud liked were the White-Clothed Army troops stationed in Yaergan City, and the barracks were outside the city wall. Without the protection of the city wall, the defense of the defenders would inevitably be greatly reduced. Biden's combat plan was to conquer Yaergan City within three days. According to his estimate, it would be impossible for the White-Clothed Army to have reinforcements to arrive in three days. His actions must be fast.

"Da da da da!"

"Da da da da!"

The silent field suddenly vibrated.

The thunderous sound of horse hooves rolled towards Yaergan City.

There is no possibility of keeping a secret when tens of thousands of cavalry dispatched, and Biden has no order to keep a secret. As long as the troops can appear at the attack position within the specified time and can attack the White Army within the specified time, the balance of victory will be seriously tilted towards the Ottoman Empire. The final victory is just around the corner.

As the vanguard, the Mamluk cavalry had the fastest speed. They seemed to be a silver lightning bolt, appearing in the sight of the White Army. They were slaves, and only by fighting hard to fight to the death can they escape from their status as slaves. Therefore, they were eager to make meritorious deeds, completely putting life and death aside. They were all determined to kill the White Army.

Many powerful officials from the former Arab Empire came from the Mamluk cavalry. After the rise of the Ottoman Empire, the Arab Empire gradually declined and finally retreated to the south of Egypt. However, the Mamluk cavalry who surrendered to the Ottoman Empire was still very glorious. As long as they had military achievements, they could stand out.

"Master Commander, the enemy has been dispatched! The total force is about 10,000!"

As soon as the Mamluk cavalry was dispatched, the Mastiff Cavalry learned the news. The Mastiff Cavalry scouts were all experienced in battles, and they kept staring at the movements of the enemy. The cavalry under Biden made a little move and immediately realized it.

In an instant, the entire neighborhood of Yaergan City was full of excitement.

From the telescope, the Mamluk cavalry that flocked in was like a scorpion in the desert, appearing silently, very sinister and cruel. If someone ignores their existence, the fate will definitely be very tragic. At the beginning, the invincible Mongolian cavalry was defeated by the Mamluk cavalry because they were careless.

For the convenience of fighting, the Mamluk cavalry did not equip muskets. In their hands, there were only special scimitars. This nearly semicircular scimitar is about fifty in length. It is made of wuz steel, with beautiful patterns on the surface and very sharp. The slashing force on the horse's back is very strong, and a horse's head can be easily cut off. If it is chopped on a person, it will definitely be cut by one knife or two.

"Each troops fired freely!"

Gao Jie put down the telescope with a free expression and gave a decisive order.

The Mamluk cavalry did not have muskets, and it was the best shooting target for the Han-style rifle. For the snipers of the Mastiff Cavalry, shooting targets at a distance of 300 meters is not difficult. The Mamluk cavalry has a very high spirit and must be used to attack their spirit as much as possible. The White Army has always been unhappy with the high morale of the Ottoman team. As long as they have the opportunity to attack the morale of the enemy, they will never let it go.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Bang bang bang!"

The fierce gunfire sounded suddenly.

The mortar brigade of the Mastiff Cavalry has been transferred to the Lion Cavalry to assist the battle. Therefore, the Mastiff Cavalry cannot use the power of the cannon for the time being, so they can only use Han-style rifles to fight back. To be honest, the Han-style rifles are manual rifles after all, and they are not very satisfactory in terms of firing rate. They cannot form an airtight fire wall for the Mamluk cavalry.

Fortunately, there is also a new and cheap weapon in front of the Mastiff Cavalry's position, which is barbed wire mesh. This kind of barbed wire mesh that is casually pulled is exactly the same as later generations, and is rolled together, and is fixed to the ground with an iron rod as small as an arm in the middle. Many warriors of the Mastiff Cavalry do not understand the function of barbed wire mesh.
