Chapter 108: Time Difference
Chapter 108: Time Difference
Cao Yi has to make a time difference. He's going to seize every minute.
Therefore, after the rectification, he immediately brought a large army and rushed towards the army of the Assassin Prefecture.
Seeing this, the Assassin Governor also went out of the camp to line up.
After all, the Watt Thorns are not the Ming army, and the Ming army can hold the camp. However, the camp of the tile spur is extremely simple, and the art of defending the camp is also sparse and ordinary.
Even if he held the camp, it wouldn't give the Academy much of an advantage.
Therefore, the Assassin Governor's Court would rather fight a fight.
At first, the two sides still fought with cavalry.
Shi Ju personally went into battle, and 20,000 cavalry fought here repeatedly.
The cavalry of this era did not have any formation to speak of when they fought, and they were just repeatedly rushing and killing. Just when the two sides were fighting, the sound of neat rectification on the ground came.
But it was Cao Yi who urged the formation to press forward slowly but firmly. The spear is like a forest, the army is like a mountain, and this mountain forest is squeezed little by little with the momentum of Mount Tai.
Shi Ju's cavalry style of play immediately changed.
They no longer sought to slay the Tile Cavalry under their horses, but drove the Tile Cavalry forward in front of the infantry formation.
But before hitting the military formation, the Tile Spur cavalry, no matter how powerful, could not stop the countless crossbows and crossbows. One by one, they turned into hedgehogs and smashed under the horses.
Then he was trampled under the feet of countless feet, and after passing, it turned into a mass of flesh.
In this way, the cavalry warbands of both sides moved to the south little by little.
Seeing this, the Assassin closed his eyes in pain, this battle has not been fought for long, he has already tried it out, whether it is a cavalry or a foot soldier, he is a first-class elite.
If you continue to fight, it won't make any difference.
"Withdraw." The Assassin ordered.
This order is not easy to order, the two sides are already at war together, they want to retreat, they want to get rid of it, where is it so easy.
There has to be a queen.
After the Assassin Governor personally led the palace, it took a while to fight before it could be regarded as please, the cavalry of the Ming army, a little strange time, the desire of the Ming cavalry to pursue was not too resolute.
Even so, after he retreated dozens of miles south, he reorganized his men and horses, and counted and folded 3,000 men and horses. It can be said that the biggest loss since he went south is the two battles before and after.
The Assassin also knew that it would not be so easy to get out again, so he fled south overnight. However, it soon collided with tens of thousands of people in North Korea.
Although the Tile Thorn suffered a lot of losses, it still had an advantage in the face of the Korean soldiers, but the Assassin was worried about the pursuit behind, so he just broke through the defense of the Korean army and fled.
Stay in North Korea and Li Yao is here to clean up the mess.
Of course, that's another story.
However, it was said that on the battlefield, the Assassin Governor's Court ordered the troops to be withdrawn, and Shi Ju was overjoyed and was about to chase and kill a section.
After all, the war is in phase
In the holding stage, the casualty ratio of the two sides is constantly different, and the time when the casualties of the two sides can really be pulled apart is the time of pursuit.
And the Ming army is even more meritorious by the head, these defeated soldiers, in Shi Ju, are all ripe crops, waiting to be harvested. But at this time, the rear army came with an order to withdraw the troops.
How could Shi Ju not be angry, he didn't dare to disobey Cao Yi's order, after he came back, he immediately asked Cao Yidao: "My lord, why did Mingjin withdraw his troops?" ”
Cao Yi said: "Just now. Our scouts have spotted the Thorn Scouts. ”
Shi Ju listened, and cold sweat flowed.
The army released scouts, and they were particular. It's usually about 100 to 200 miles, after all, it's not interesting to put it too far.
However, this standard is the standard on the steppe and the plains.
In the mountainous area of Yanbian, there is a discount.
But even if it is a big discount, there should be a hundred miles.
And the distance of a hundred miles, for the cavalry, if it is really a desperate assault, it is only a few hours, most of the time.
The case of a 300-mile assault in one day and night is by no means uncommon in history.
Therefore, the discovery of tile scouts in this vicinity indicates that when the two sides are fighting fiercely, they may encounter the sudden appearance of tile reinforcements at any time.
Shi Ju admired Cao Yi's big heart.
Cao Yi was able to endure until he won the battle before withdrawing his troops, and he was already very calm.
Shi Ju immediately saluted and said, "My lord, the last general is rude, please punish the general?" ”
"It doesn't matter." Cao Yi said: "You are ready to make meritorious service for your crimes." There is a fierce battle to be fought. ”
Cao Yi found a place near the mountains and the sea and set up camp.
Soon the North Korean army also came.
Cao Yi took over the command of the Korean army without hesitation, and Cao Yi didn't care what kind of prince Li Yao was, the monarch.
The arrival of the Korean army solved the big trouble for Cao Yi.
First of all, logistical troubles were solved.
Although Cao Yi was not as thoroughly equipped as the Assassin Zhiyuan, he also came lightly, and he did not bring much dry food, and with the support of the North Korean army, it would not be a problem.
Secondly, there is the issue of the people.
The Tile Spur army is coming, and this time it will not be 10,000 or 20,000 people, and Cao Yi himself is encamped and waiting.
But civil engineering requires manpower, and the 30,000 soldiers are all elites, so let them set up camps and consume physical strength, and when the tile spur army really comes, won't they have no physical strength to fight.
And the combat effectiveness of the North Korean army, Cao Yi is not too much to count on. But they are strong laborers, and they can still do something.
The third problem is the Ministry of Assassination.
The Assassin Governor suffered a lot of losses, but the main force survived, and if he fought against the Tile Thorn army again, the Assassin Governor suddenly attacked from the south, which would be a big hidden danger.
As soon as the North Korean army arrived, Cao Yi had enough manpower, and he would gather it
The department was dispatched and asked to go south immediately, with the purpose of driving out the Assassin Governor's Academy, and whether or not they could be exterminated, they must be driven away from afar.
Cao Yi specially let Shi Ju release the news, Shi Ju's department was the vanguard, and the army was behind. Let the Assassin Governor not dare to stay and fight with Shi Ju.
In order to create an information gap.
Cao Yi also built two or three large earth pits, and immediately the top was full of corpses of tile spur soldiers, but more than 3,000 corpses were buried in a formation of 10,000 people.
And among all the corpses, the heads of several corpses that looked like generals were cut off as gifts to Yexian, and a dozen bamboo poles were erected on top of the camp, and each bamboo pole had a human head hanging on it.
The human head on the highest bamboo pole is the Ashoji Temple.
No matter what others think, Cao Yi said yes, no one in the camp dared to say no. Make every effort to create the news of the annihilation of the Assassin's Academy.
Therefore, as soon as he arrived first, he first received Cao Yi's gift.
For a time, among the troops of the first subordinates, everyone was angry and asked for battle, and they were determined to kill Cao Yi and avenge the Assassin Prefecture.
But he didn't believe it too much.
The reason is that it's too fast.
also got the news of Cao Yi's dispatch of troops first, and immediately sent troops to rescue, the two sides are the front and rear feet, even if it is counted because of the time difference between the departure places.
It's only three or four days.
If Cao Yi defeated the Assassin Prefecture, he believed that three days was enough for all this. But if it is a total annihilation, it is unlikely.
Because people are not pigs, the stubborn resistance of an army can last for a long time, just like in the Battle of Changping, even if the Zhao army entered the ambush circle and was surrounded, it still held out for a long time.
Therefore, I don't believe that it is so fast, and in the situation of being surrounded, it will not be able to hold out for even three days.
But what is the use of him believing it or not.
This head is real, these are the middle and lower-level generals in the Tile Thorn Army, and naturally there are people in the army who know them. As soon as he stretched out his hand and pressed down, everyone suddenly calmed down, and he said: "I will definitely avenge this revenge." ”
I can't help but take revenge for this.
It can be said that since the era of Dehuan, this is the first time that the Tile Thorn army has been defeated and offended, if this battle is true.
Not only did it damage the military strength of the Tile Spur, but it also damaged the prestige of the Tile Spur.
The tile spur relied on the invincible combat power of the tile spur army, and integrated the grassland, so that countless vassals followed the tile spur to fight, and after the undefeated prestige of the tile spur was shattered, there will be more people on the grassland who should not have thoughts.
The grassland has always been a fertile ground for careerists, and there has never been a shortage of careerists, no matter what time it is.
First of all, it is necessary to revive the prestige of the tile spur as soon as possible, and let them know that the previous defeat was just an accident, and the knife of the tile spur is still as sharp as ever.
To prove it, you need a big win.
