Chapter 46: Don't Rejoice Too Soon! (Add more, ask for collection, ask for recommendation)
Another big win!
Because the horses of Guo Yaoshi and Liu Yanzong's subordinates were all taken away by the Bodhisattva Prince Wanyan Zonghan and used by the Jurchens who went south to Kaifeng, there were very few cavalry in the 10,000 troops that the two of them brought to the Daimyo's Mansion, only more than 1,000 horsemen, and they were all configured with one person and one horse. Horses are very expensive, and of course they don't need them. Therefore, the main soldiers lined up outside the south gate of the camp were infantry, and only a few of the personal soldiers who were guarding Guo Yaoshi and Liu Yanzong were horses.
Therefore, Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Kesan led the team to attack, in fact, it was an infantry army of less than 1,000 people, and the formation was scattered, and they had no intention of fighting to the death, and they only wanted to retreat into the open camp gate...... Of course, such an infantry army could not stop the roaring cavalry onslaught!
However, the cavalry led by Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Ke failed to rush into the Jin Soldier camp in one fell swoop. Because the Jin soldiers who were attacked by the surprise were not slow to react, before Han Shizhong and others led the team to rush outside the camp gate, they had already sealed the gate with a row of horse rejection rifles, and hundreds of infantry were placed behind the horse rejection guns, and they relied on the horse rejection guns to block the Song army's iron cavalry with spears and bows and arrows.
After a big victory, Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Ke, who had already won a lot, did not use their precious cavalry to rush hard, but accepted it when they saw it, and led more than 600 people under their hands who had won a great victory on flying horses and returned.
Zhao Kai saw the three people flying horses in front of him, and immediately opened his throat and shouted: "Han Shizhong, Xiang Ke transferred to the horizontal class!" Liu Qi turned three officials in a row! β
Immediately, more than a dozen Tiance guards with loud voices pulled their throats and repeated Zhao Kai's words so that more people could hear them.
At the same time, Chen Dong had already recorded Zhao Kai's order to promote Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Kesan on the "Promotion Book".
"Minister Han Shizhong, thank you for your kindness!"
"Bow to Kshane!"
"Minister Liu Qi thank the king for his grace!"
All three of them turned over from their horses and saluted Zhao Kai to thank him.
Zhao Kai laughed and said: "King Fang Cai personally watched the battle, and saw that the soldiers used their lives and won a lot, so they should be rewarded...... The three of you immediately go back and select the three people with the most credit in each team, and the Lone King will promote them to be officials!
In addition, everyone who participated in the war was rewarded, and everyone was rewarded! Except for the three people who are selected to be awarded by the team and the nine people who are elected to be awarded by each team, they are all transferred to one capital! β
More than 600 people, 10 people per person, a total of 6,000 people!
Distributed on the spot!
And "transfer to a capital" is the meaning of promotion to one level. In the Song Dynasty, there were forty-eight ranks in the promotion order of military attachΓ©s, and if you count the ranks of soldiers such as the soldiers of the forbidden army, the soldiers of the forbidden army, and the utility soldiers, they would be above the fifty ranks. Therefore, it is not a particularly generous reward to transfer one capital, unless someone is short of one capital and gets an official position...... There are officials and no officials, heaven and earth!
As for the big hurdle of entering the rampant industry, it cannot be crossed by general promotion and grinding and transfer. Unless there is a great merit or special purpose, the general promotion and the transfer of the mill will stop at the ambassadors.
However, just one charge can be exchanged for "one capital" and ten rewards, which is still very rich!
Therefore, after Zhao Kai's order was loudly announced by his guards, there was another burst of cheers.
Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men!
If the warrior is not brave, most likely the reward is not enough!
If you don't consider the efficacy of the "Four Great Arts" (Glorious Three Kingdoms, Nobunaga Ambition, Total War, Horseback Riding and Slashing) and the Eight Great Formations of the Secret Treasure (then a good formation is not something that anyone can see), the current Zhao Kai only has two outstanding points, one is kind; The second is to be willing to give a heavy reward!
In the midst of jubilation, Zhao Kai turned around and looked at the veteran He Guan and He Guan's son He Ji who were standing behind him at the time of not knowing it, and then looked at He Guan and He Ji behind him, the 600-step soldiers who had been lined up!
These 600 armor soldiers are all grown men, all of them are wearing heavy and sturdy foot armor, and they also cover their mouths and noses with black cloths, looking like masked killers. They carried spears or knives and axes, and no one carried a bow or a bow. Among them, pikemen are in front, and warriors with long knives and axes are behind.
When He Guan saw Zhao Kai turn around, he asked loudly: "King, the 600 selection of the Shuaifu Ya Army has been completed...... The king orders! β
After the cavalry cleared the enemy outside the south gate of the Golden Camp, it was naturally the turn of the infantry armor...... This sequence of attacks has been prepared for a long time.
According to the plan jointly drawn up by He Guan, Han Shizhong, Wang Yuan, Xiang Ke and other generals, today's first formation is Huang Wuji's temporary spear throwers (the cavalry of the first general of Tiance), the second formation is the armored cavalry led by Han Shizhong, Liu Qi and Xiang Ke, and the third formation is the turn of the infantry of the Shuaifu Ya Army commanded by He Guan!
He Guan selected 600 warriors who could wear foot armor and fight hand-to-hand combat from the 5,000 Shuaifu Ya Army, and handed them over to his son, He Ji, who served as the commander of the Shuaifu Ya Army, to prepare to attack the camp gate of the Jin Army camp with the support of the cannons and eight-bull crossbows that had been erected.
And the reason why he wanted to attack the camp gate was because Liu Yan told Zhao Kai that Guo Yaoshi was a veteran general who had experienced dozens of battles, and he was rigorous in his use of troops, no matter how favorable or unfavorable the situation was, he would seriously set up the camp. Parapet walls, trenches, row of forked wood, pits, ironwood thistles, etc., will not be missing.
Therefore, it is very difficult to break through the camp wall of Guo Yaoshi's camp, and Zhao Kai did not bring too many troops outside Guo Yaoshi's camp, only 4,500 Tiance cavalry, 5,000 Shuaifu Yajun, 2,000 Cangzhou soldiers, 3,000 Wei Fuyi, and a total of 14,500 people. There were at least 10,000 people in Guo Yaoshi's camp, so it was not certain to storm the camp, and raiding the camp gate became the first choice.
As long as the surprise attack is successful, and the infantry of the brigade can rush into the camp to fight, it will be won.
"Good!" Zhao Kai looked at the 600 strong men in front of him and nodded with satisfaction, "Who said that I am weak in the Song Dynasty?" There may not be many such ironclad warriors, even if they are Jurchens!
Today's decisive blow is handed over to you! The Lone King announced that the first person to rush into the gold thief camp, no matter what official position he held before, would be promoted to the horizontal class, awarded the commander of one state and one government, and rewarded 1,000 yuan!
If you can take the camp gate, the whole team can transfer one capital, and each person will be given 20 yuan! β
"Victory!" The 600 brave men cheered again.
Zhao Kai was very satisfied, waved his hand, pointed to the gate of the Jin Army's camp, opened his throat and shouted: "Great Song Iron Army, attack!" β
......
"Daddy, the Song people are attacking again, this time it is an ironclad infantry army, with a number of about five or six hundred ......"
Guo Tiannu stood on the stirrups, stretched her neck and looked outside the camp, and saw a dense infantry formation of five or six hundred people, just like a moving square city, slowly pushing over!
Guo Yaoshi didn't look at the Song army outside the camp, but focused all his attention on the more than 1,000 foot soldiers who were forming a team inside the camp gate. The more than 1,000 foot soldiers were divided into two teams, the front team was about 700 people, the formation was scattered, half of them held bows, half of them held swords, guns and shields, and only leather armor on their bodies. There were only 300 people in the rear team, but they were all ironclad soldiers, dressed in the infantry armor of the Song army, each with a spear, and the formation was strict and unmoving.
Seeing that these two pairs of soldiers had finished the team, Guo Yaoshi snorted and sneered twice: "Zhao Kai is a character, much stronger than his father and brother...... It's a pity that Song Jun has been weak for too long, and he has been weak to the bone, and it is not something that he can change by himself! β
"Why do you say that?" Guo Tiannu frowned, "The cavalry just now, the current infantry army, is no less than our Changsheng army!" β
"After all, the cavalry of the Song army is small and cannot be used, and although their infantry is heavy, they are cowardly and dare not fight hand-to-hand, and only bent on hurting people with their divine arms and bows." Pharmacist Guo said with a smile, "The hundreds of step armor soldiers you see are actually selected from at least four or five thousand elite soldiers...... Four or five thousand elite soldiers are only a few hundred pace-stepping soldiers, so cowardly, why be afraid! β
