Chapter 157: Field Battle 'Qin Army'

Qin Yu was overjoyed when he saw that Hong Laogou had only brought six or seven thousand men and horses to chase him, and immediately decided to fight a battle before leaving.

After all, it's a mule and a horse, so you have to pull it out and walk it.

Hong Chengchou named the army he trained Qin Jun, which was shameless, and he was not frightened by King Qin.

If it is replaced by the Qi family's army, he will turn around and run, Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong army will also weigh one or two, but an army that chases and kills the rabble every day is a peerless strong army, and he doesn't believe it if he is killed.

What's more, he didn't think that Hong Chengchou would watch them and enter the mountain slowly.

And that's exactly what happened.

Although Hong Chengchou did not dare to take his soldiers and horses to the mountain pass to encircle him, he also did not dare to let the other party go openly, otherwise once he was impeached, not only would his reputation be ruined, but he would also not be able to eat and walk around.

They are officials, and the other party is a thief, even if they are not sure, they must fight a battle to bring out the momentum of the official army.

So, with the army, he returned to the front of the Chinese army.

Seeing this, King Qin simply didn't bother to move, and ordered the army to camp on the spot, rest for the night today, and fight to the death tomorrow!

The 5,000 sappers were tired and busy until midnight, not only digging a ditch and building a wall around the camp, but also enclosing a small place in the middle, digging the ditch deeper and wider than the front, and piling up the wall higher and stronger than the front.

There is no way, the threat of the opposing cavalry is too great, and if you want to have a fight with the opposing infantry, the five thousand sappers and women must settle down.

The only hill around was also occupied by the opposing cavalry, and there were no trees around, so they had to dig ditches and pile up walls.

The next day, the army made food for the third watch, and the fifth watch gathered in line.

The rear battalion and the engineer battalion were all left in the small circle, and two thousand heroes and a firearms battalion were left to protect, so Qin Yu slowly pressed forward with the army with peace of mind.

At the front of the army were five military formations, Liu Hu's first battalion was in the center, four battalions were located on the left and right sides, in the middle were the guard battalion and the women's battalion, and behind were the other two infantry battalions and four fire battalions.

Each time the army advanced, it would stop and move again, and always maintain a neat formation to the sound of drums and trumpets.

However, Hong Chengchou was still arranging troops outside the camp, and when he saw that the number of the other party was more than twice as large as theirs, but he was more advanced than them, he was secretly shocked in his heart.

Especially the unified military uniforms and armor, bright banners and neat phalanxes, so that Hong Laogou couldn't help but give birth to the other party is a well-trained officer and army, and they are the thieves.

"Change Jiao, wait a minute, you will act when you see the opportunity, if you have the opportunity, you have to kill that Xiaohua King for this Governor at the cost of casualties, otherwise this fang will be a big trouble for my Ming henchmen in the future!"

"Don't worry, even if I have 3,000 iron horsemen, I will explain all of them here today, and I will definitely take the head of the thief and present it to the overseer."

Cao Bianjiao clenched his fists and replied sonorously, wearing a bright light armor, shining with a hint of cold light in the morning sun.

"Well, of course, you can't do anything, and you can't force it, and you can grasp it yourself when the time comes."

Hong Chengchou nodded, gave another instruct, and only then did he get on a chariot that was temporarily modified last night with the support of his personal guards, and led the army to meet him.

The two armies did not hold their positions until they approached a mile.

King Qin fought a field battle outside Zhushan City last time, but Hong Chengchou never fought once.

In the past, those anti-thieves did not dare to fight head-on with the official army, even if there were more anti-thieves, as soon as the cavalry rushed, the other party immediately scattered and fled, causing Hong Chengchou to be surrounded and intercepted all the time.

Now that the two armies are facing each other and facing the decisive battle of the drums, Hong Laogou can't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, and he really doesn't have much confidence, if it weren't for the three thousand cavalry on the side, I'm afraid they all want to retreat to the camp to defend.

Because there is no need to fight, just rely on the opponent's position, and then look at the formation of his own people, the victory or defeat is clear at a glance, and he has been practicing martial arts for many years, and he still has this knowledge.

King Qin also experienced war for a long time, and when he saw the opponent's team, equipment and momentum, he suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed.

He also thought that the Qin army trained by Hong Chengchou was really powerful, but he never thought that it was better than Zuo Liangyu's soldiers and horses.

Except for a few people who have cotton armor, the others have at most a spear, or a long sword, a shield, a firearm, a bow and arrow, and they don't even look at it.

Although the team is not sparse, it is far worse than them, if it weren't for the 3,000 cavalry, he would have to beat Hong Chengchou out today.

In fact, Hong Chengchou can't be blamed for being stingy and incompetent, but it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

The northwest is barren, and it is very rare for Hong Chengchou to train an army where everyone has a blade, discipline is quite strict, and rewards and punishments are quite clear under the condition of stabilizing the three sides.

If you have the money to buy luxury things like cotton armor, bows, arrows, and firearms, it is better to build more knives and guns.

Because of such equipment, coupled with a small number of elite soldiers, it is enough to clean up the anti-thieves!

After all, Hong Chengchou doesn't have the advantage of Qin Yu, wherever he goes, he grabs it.

Although sometimes he will turn a blind eye to the plundering of places by his subordinate officers, he must not go too far, otherwise the people who impeach him in the imperial court will be countless.

In fact, if it weren't for the silver money and grain that the thieves had stolen, Hong Chengchou would not have been able to train so many soldiers and horses anyway.

On the contrary, Qin Yu has always trained his firearms and infantry as field troops.

Not only do you have three meals a day, but you will also have meat from time to time, and the most frightening thing is that you train from morning to night every day.

Although the training lasted only three months, in ancient times, it was equivalent to three years of training in other armies.

What's more, he is also thick-skinned, and he advertises himself as a character like Lao Zhu and Lao Liu every day.

Plus fight two victories from time to time and play a little trick.

Not to mention ordinary soldiers and teenagers, even Niu Er and Hongying almost believe that King Qin is the destiny of heaven, and the future is a figure who wants to take over the world and become the emperor.

I'll just ask you, are you afraid?

"Brothers, you see the bears on the other side! Lao Tzu saw that their legs were trembling, and the knives were about to fall to the ground unsteadily, and there were only four or five thousand people, and they dared to argue with our thirty or forty thousand heroes, which was simply tired and crooked. ”

"Whoa..."

"Today, let's chop them, and then kill them to Xichuan to eat wine and drink meat, divide the girls, today's battle, whoever kills one enemy, to Xichuan, not only to upgrade to a level, but also to go on a blind date to pick a girl."

"Whoa..."

"King Hua is mighty! The Chinese army is invincible! ”

King Qin rode on a tall horse, and with a few words, more than 10,000 troops were screamed, and the murderous spirit was monstrous.

Even the Red Warblers and the female soldiers were infected, riding on their horses and screaming with their sabers.

The reason why they were brought here was completely to scare people into rushing to the façade, after all, the other party had cavalry, and if they didn't have cavalry on their side, they would lose first.

Hong Chengchou on the opposite side heard the guards shouting Qin Yu's promise in unison just now, and the other party's already high morale skyrocketed again, and his face turned black to the bottom of the pot.

But he couldn't give his subordinates Xu Ruo a woman like a thief, so he had to order with a blushing face: "Pass on the military order of the Governor, whoever kills a thief today will be rewarded with two taels of silver, and those who kill the small boss will be promoted to one level, and those who kill the big boss will be promoted to two levels, and the one who kills the thief leader Xiaohua Wang will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and the governor will personally play His Majesty and give him an official knighthood." ”

The guards beside him immediately shouted loudly, conveying Hong Laogou's promise.

Sure enough, the promise made before the battle was still very necessary, and because of the clear rewards and punishments in peacetime, the soldiers believed it.

One by one, they also brandished their blades and roared, sweeping away the decadence of the momentum just now.
