"According to the latest information from the scouts, there is only this Ming cavalry within a ten-mile radius."
Looking at the sky with drizzling rain, Sha Yueze laughed coldly and said, "The Ming army took advantage of the fact that there was no one in my tribe and dared to march deep into the territory alone! Order all cavalry to assemble, and assemble another 500 infantry to prepare to attack this group of Ming troops from behind."
"Yes, sir."
Not long after the military order was issued, the troops in the city were assembled.
Led by Sha Yueze, one thousand cavalrymen and five hundred infantrymen quietly left the city and attacked Li Dingguo.
The two sides met in an open space fifteen miles west of the city and lined up to meet the enemy.
The commanders of both sides were very happy.
Sha Yueze believed that the Ming army's combat effectiveness came from firearms, and the continuous drizzle outside would temporarily make the Ming army's firearms ineffective.
In addition, he had the advantage in military strength, so he was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.
Li Dingguo was happier than Sha Yueze.

They formed a horizontal formation and rushed towards Li Dingguo, trying to engage in a melee with the Ming army.

Cavalry caught in a melee will lose their formation and their ability to attack.
On the other hand, the infantry.

Li Dingguo waved his hand and said: "The left wing will circle northward, and the right wing will circle southward, leading their cavalry to circle the battlefield."
Boom!
The warhorse's iron hooves stomped heavily on the ground, splashing mud more than a person's height.
The Ming army's one thousand cavalrymen changed their formation into left and right wings, running towards the north and south respectively.
Sha Yueze ordered without hesitation: "Divide the troops and chase them!"
