Chapter 80: Guerrilla General
The typo is good, the word is no longer important, Wang Buxing has already recognized the word Sima.
The Sima clan is still quite famous, such as Sima Yi......
Ahem, it's a string.
The king of the Sima clan at the end of Qin was not hungry and not very familiar, but it did not mean that he was not familiar at all.
On the contrary, for the three kings at the end of Qin, Wang Buxing still knows a little.
Yongwang Zhang Han, Saiwang Sima Xin, Zhai Wang Dong Peng.
These three later divided the Guanzhong region, and they were also used by Xiang Yu to deal with Liu Bang's vanguard.
Judging from the relationship between the three of them, the only people Zhang Han can use in the army are these two people.
And the biggest problem with the prisoner army is that military discipline and military morale are a problem.
Therefore, it is a very dangerous thing for them to divide their troops.
Therefore, in history, Zhang Han went all the way out of the customs and finally surrendered, without dividing the troops.
There is no division of troops, what does this mean?
It means that Zhou Wen's defeat was defeated on the premise that more than 100,000 people on his side faced Zhang Han's 600,000 people.
In history, Xiang Liang's death was most likely because Xiang Liang pretended to be too much and didn't take Zhang Han in his eyes, and as a result, hundreds of thousands of people pounced on him and beat Xiang Liang directly.
When Xiang Yu became serious and was occupied by anger and revenge, how many battles did he Zhang Han win?
Therefore, to sum up, it has left a big doubt in history, why is Zhang Han very powerful in the early stage, who kills whom, but who can't beat who in the later stage?
The reason is here, with the consumption of their own troops, the exhaustion of successive battles, the wavering of the morale of the army, the fleeing soldiers, and the seriousness of the other side, the gap between the two sides in terms of strength has narrowed, and so on.
No matter whether the person who came was Sima Xin or Zhang Han, he had to face it after all.
And Sima Xin, who suddenly appeared here, of course, didn't come here to play.
"Let a thousand guerrillas go and harass! Scouts inquire about the terrain in advance and guide the guerrilla general's follow-up missions! After thinking about it for a while, Wang Bu decided to send two thousand guerrilla generals to attack.
"No!" Yang Tieshan gave the order and went to arrange it in person.
Guerrillas will not be easy to find, mainly because those who can fight at night are not easy to find.
The entire Wang Bu hungry army of nearly 200,000 people, full of calculations, also found more than 4,000 people, this time Wang Bu Hungry brought 2,000 out, Xingyang left more than 1,000, Ao Cang left more than 1,000.
The guerrilla generals were dispatched, and Wang was not hungry for sure what the effect would be, but he knew that the other party would not be too comfortable.
And at this time, Wang Buxing suddenly thought of a serious question, 'Could this Sima Xin be Sima Qian's ancestor?' If he dies in advance, will Sima Qian be gone? I'm still waiting for Sima Qian to blow us in the historical records......
……
If you brag about it, you will talk about it later, and after receiving the order, the 1,000 guerrilla generals will set off directly in full gear.
The guerrilla generals can be said to be the best equipped in Wang Buying's army, equipped with all three-stone Qin crossbows, with a maximum direct range of about 120 meters.
In order to facilitate the battle, each person has a short weapon, a bronze sword.
Also for the convenience of combat, the guerrilla generals were not equipped with armor.
Then, Wang Buxing also equipped the guerrilla generals with war horses to improve their mobility.
But at night, horses are useless.
Even if you don't have night blindness, your vision at night will be hindered to a certain extent, and you can still feel your feet when you run, and you can barely see the road ahead, and if you ride a horse, then you will really be left to fate.
Under the leadership of the scout, the guerrilla general Yang Ye led his troops into a camp, and then ordered the troops to rest in place, while he himself continued to follow the scout generals to discuss the next battle.
In a narrow mountain pass, there were several piles of torches lit around, and the scout general Sun Xiaowu was squatting on the ground holding a branch and constantly drawing something.
Yang Ye didn't interrupt him, but quietly stood behind him and watched.
The guerrillas will have the ability to move at night, albeit at a slightly slower pace, but much better than the troops of the great army that must stop at night.
Although it takes a day and a half to two days for a large army to walk a distance of 100 miles, it can be completed in less than a day for a guerrilla general equipped with war horses.
Of course, this is only for the location of Baili, considering the environment here, when they were halfway through the journey, they handed over the war horse to the soldiers who followed them, and asked them to bring the war horse back to Mi County.
The advantage of the war horse lies in the impact and speed of short-distance engagements, if the battle line is really increased to a distance of 100 miles, then his speed is actually slightly faster than that of a human.
If the battle line is increased to more than 500 li, then it can be very responsible to tell you that the speed of a simple infantry march is faster than that of a cavalry unit.
If the two set off at the same time, when the infantry reached the combat position, they had to wait for the cavalry unit to be in place.
And the Huns, who fought long-distance battles and could ensure speed, the standard configuration was one person and three horses, and it must be a high-class horse breed.
This kind of condition is very difficult to achieve in the land of China.
Even so, they arrived here just in time for the tail of the first half of the night.
"Yang Qianren, when are you here?" Sun Xiaoliu, who finished drawing the picture, suddenly found that there was someone behind him, and he was startled.
"It's been a while, let's talk about the situation!" Yang Ye said.
Sun Xiaoliu nodded and began to say: "The military discipline of the other party is very average, and the terrain here is not suitable for large regiments to fight, so when they set up camp, their camp is a little crowded, and the current number of people can be basically determined, about 100,000 people, the grain and grass are located in the center of the camp, at least about four hundred steps, in this position, it is difficult for your crossbow arrows to shoot, unless you can get a big crossbow!"
In addition, the mountains on both sides can be entered and exited at will, and the route we touched yesterday, not to mention that it extends in all directions, but we can provide no less than three safe routes to evacuate.
In addition, they also arranged a small number of troops on the mountain, but the number is not large, it is estimated that it is used to warn, although the location is very good, but there is still some distance from our evacuation route, if the speed is faster, it should be able to withdraw before them! ”
"I brought a big crossbow, can your people move tonight?" Yang Ye nodded, it was already very good that the scout could do this step in the preliminary work.
A crossbow is a heavy bolt that is mainly used in sieges and for mass destruction when charging large armies of the enemy.
This kind of crossbow has appeared in movie mythology, but the reality is not so exaggerated, this kind of crossbow cannot be pulled by one person at all, it requires two or three people to cooperate to pull the bowstring, and at least four people are needed in front to assist in the operation.
Yang Ye had already studied how to disassemble and carry this heavy crossbow according to Wang Buxing's instructions, and assembled it when he arrived at the place to deal with the current situation.
"Yes!" Sun Xiaoliu nodded, large-scale action is not possible, it is no problem to send out twenty or thirty people to lead the way, after all, scouts also need to act at night, and it is impossible to give everyone to the guerrillas.
"Then arrange it, there is an open front out of here, it's not easy to find such an opportunity, you must act tonight!" Yang Ye said with firm eyes!
