Chapter 115 Tang Dao Invincible Array
"What the hell is going on now? Go on? Or retreat? ”
While the three of them were discussing, the sappers were still working, while Cao Guangbi's men and horses had already been ordered to rest.
Yang Yingqi hesitated in his heart, and Ouyang Shi pointed to the frozen boundary river: "Could it be that we really lost to God like this." ”
Cao Guangbi shook his head and said, "What are you competing with God!" This thing is the fairest thing for everyone, but it depends on how people use it. ”
"Oh?" Ouyang Shi sneered: "Then you can show me!" ”
Yang Yingqi was stunned for a moment when he heard this, his mind flashed like lightning, and he smiled: "There you have it!" Not bad! Nerds, nerds! ”
Ouyang Shiqi said: "What is there?" Why do you say yes and no? Who are you talking about being nerds? ”
Yang Yingqi smiled: "I said I was a nerd!" Haha, the technology of the future people is really unreliable, let's learn from the ancients. ”
Cao Guangbi and Ouyang Shi glared together, not knowing what he was talking about.
Yang Yingqi said: "I mean, we can learn from Cao Cao. ”
"Cao Cao?"
"Not bad." Yang Yingqi said: "We have been complaining that the mud solidifies too quickly, but we didn't expect that it is a good thing to solidify quickly." ”
When he said this, Cao Guangbi and Ouyang Shi's eyes had lit up, and Yang Yingqi said: "No need for cement, boil an ice hole in the river, pick up water, and splash it on the wall!" ”
Ouyang Shi laughed when he heard this: "Okay, you seventh, you can think of such a way!" ”
Yang Yingqi smiled and said: "I didn't come up with it, I remembered it!" That's what Cao Cao did when he was in Weihe. Don't talk nonsense, let's do it! ”
Ouyang Shi immediately gave an order, and asked the sailors to use thunderbolt fireballs to burn some holes in the river on the shore, and take water on the spot to splash the wall. Yang Yingqi commanded the sappers to surround the place that had not yet been enclosed.
The wall extends from the north bank of the Boundary River to the northeast coast, forming an irregular fan. There was a gap in the middle of the fan - it was left for the city gate later, and Cao Guangbi's men and horses put the tent in front of this gap to block it, and in front of the tent, there was a fence wall. In order to maintain their strength for the battle, all 800 men went to sleep in tents. Cao Guangbi was not affected by the enthusiasm of the sappers and sailors in the slightest, and sat in the tent with his eyes closed.
Although the Han soldiers had been trained for a long time, they were busy all day during the day, and after nightfall, they were busy all night, and they were all tired. Dongfang was slow to move when he turned white, Yang Yingqi knew that if he continued like this, the efficiency would only get lower and lower, and seeing that the wall had become a shape, he ordered them to set up a tent inside the wall to rest for two hours. That night the north wind was very tight, the snow was as heavy as goose feathers, and there were few tents inside the walls, and thousands of sappers and civilians were crammed into hundreds of hastily erected tents, relying on each other's body temperatures to keep warm.
Two hours later, the gong struck, and the soldiers struggled to climb out of their tents, which were covered with a blanket of snow. Two hours of rest was not enough, so they all pulled their eyelids. Suddenly, someone screamed, and the people next to him followed his fingers, infecting each other, and it didn't take long for thousands of people to look in the direction of the wall, and even some of the people who were trembling in the tent crawled out to see what was going on when they heard the noise outside the tent.
It turns out that the wall has been blown by the north wind from last night to the present, and the mud, sand, debris, masonry and stone have been frozen, and the snowflakes have fallen in the morning, sprinkling the entire high wall with white flowers, which is extremely beautiful! Someone tried to go over and kick hard, but it was like kicking granite, and while screaming in pain, he cried out, "This wall is like made of iron!" ”
The people next to him laughed. Standing behind this wall, both soldiers and civilians have a sense of security. And when I remembered that such an iron-like wall was actually built by myself in one day and one night, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in my heart. It was still cold, and the sappers, sailors, and men were still tired, but the depression they had just woken up in had been swept away. Cao Guangbi's subordinates had already risen at this time, and they were all excited to see their backs against the wall.
Yang Yingqi saw that the morale was available, so he shouted: "While the Khitan soldiers have not yet arrived, let's get some fortifications together!" ”
Thousands of people responded and began to step on the boat, carrying down the bed crossbows, leather curtains, cloth curtains, and city guards, especially the two Saimen knife carts at the gap in the city wall, which made people feel that the wall was completely flawless.
It was busy for more than half an hour, and it was noon. The sapper door lit the stove to make rice, and first made eight hundred soldiers, Yang Yingqi personally led people to send it, and the sappers were about to do the military and civilian parts of the wall, and a soldier who was responsible for listening to the hooves came to report: "West!" Moment! More than 300, less than 1,000. "To the west is the direction of the enemy's army, and a moment is the distance that the enemy will reach, and more than three hundred, within a thousand, is the possible number.
Yang Yingqi's heart sank, knowing that the Khitan cavalry was finally here! A little surprised: "It's coming so fast!" ”
Cao Guangbi sneered: "It's fast enough, but it's a pity it's useless." "Three or two bites ate the rice balls and ordered the whole army. Let Xu Wen be in charge of 500 infantry, and Lin Chong and Qin Ming will each lead 150 cavalry to fight.
Yang Yingqi saw that Cao Guangbi had no intention of paying the bill. asked, "Second brother, aren't you going out?" ”
Cao Guangbi smiled slightly: "No." ”
The eight hundred soldiers moved extremely fast, and the Khitan cavalry appeared in view, and they had already lined up to leave the camp.
Cao Guangbi looked out of the camp and said, "It seems that there are only five hundred people, well, this is the striker." ”
The five hundred Khitan cavalry approached again, and stopped in line within the impact distance, Cao Guangbi nodded and said, "The rotten ship also has a few nails!" This soldier is okay. ”
Yang Yingqi asked, "Can we win?" ”
Cao Guangbi smiled and said: "We became a city overnight, our morale is rising, and we are waiting for work at ease, and we can't lose if we fight with anyone!" What's more, these Khitan people in front of them are good in the current Daliao troops, but they can only be regarded as qualified soldiers. ”
"Qualified?" Yang Yingqi showed a smile in his eyes: "What about the second brother's people?" ”
Cao Guangbi snorted, but did not answer, but said: "Looking at the appearance of this group of people, I'm afraid they have just walked one or two hundred miles." Now you can't recover your horsepower when you stop in front of the battle. If I were the other party's general, I would have fled immediately in this case. ”
Xiao Gan, the general of the Liao army, did have the idea of escaping at that moment, and immediately suppressed it! The opponent does not have an absolute advantage in numbers, and he fled without fighting, how can he have the face to meet the coach? But when he saw that a wall like white stone had suddenly been erected on the shore, it was as if there had been a metal city on the north bank of the Jiehe River overnight, and the shock in his heart was indescribable! But at this time, he didn't know that he was facing the Han Department, and thought that this was a trick of the Song people!
But did the army of the Southern Dynasty have such discipline? The snow had stopped, but it was still extremely cold, and the hundreds of infantry in front of the wall didn't look like they were cowering at all!
"When did the Song people become so unafraid of the cold?"
Xiao Gan hesitated, not only because he wanted to restore the strength of the horses that had galloped for hundreds of miles, but also because he himself was still a little hesitant. Should I get in? Or retreat?
"This group of people is not easy to mess with!" He instinctively felt it. However, "they are only infantry after all!" Although there were cavalry hiding behind, there were not many of them. ”
In this case, if the engagement is unfavorable and then retreat, it should be too late! But he still didn't give the order. As a general who has been in the army for many years, his instinct dissuades him.
Just when Xiao Gan had not yet made up his mind and the Khitan horsepower was still tired, the infantry formation of the Han Department had already moved!
