On the reverse slope, a thousand musketeers lay quietly on the ground, waiting for the order to act.
The two armies faced each other a few hundred meters apart. Amin saw the ridge of grass and the small river. He didn't think that such a narrow place could hide many people, nor did he think it would have any impact on the direct battle.
The wailing horn sounded, and the Mongolian coalition army took the lead. More than 2,000 cavalrymen rushed out from both wings, shouting and galloping towards the Later Jin army.
As for archery, that’s the only skill you have!
Amin sneered, waved his hand and gave an order, also sending out cavalry to intercept the enemy.
Due to their advantage in armor, the bows and arrows fired by the Mongolian soldiers, who mostly wore light leather armor, had little killing power against the Later Jin army. On the other hand, the bows and arrows of the Later Jin army were able to show their power.
The war horses were galloping, like two torrents rushing forward, about to collide violently.

The Mongolian cavalry swept across the battlefield, changed direction again, and galloped back to the main camp along the raised grass.
The Later Jin cavalry shot arrows, knocking some Mongolian cavalry off their horses, and then drew their bows and arrows again to chase after them.

A whistle arrow shot into the air, making a sharp whistle, interrupting Amin's thoughts.
On the raised grass, a long row of closely arranged figures suddenly stood up and launched a volley of shots at the passing Later Jin cavalry.
Amid the roar of gunfire, the Later Jin cavalry fell down along with their horses.
Amin's eyes suddenly widened. He was familiar with the sound of gunfire!
