Volume 4: Fighting for You 25. The Limits of the Generals (II)
However, after the horse killed a soldier, the heavy damage suffered by itself also broke out, although it killed a person, but the next moment it directly fell down with its front hooves and fell directly, rolling several times in a row, as for the soldier on horseback, it was even more swept out, after landing, before he could react, several long swords, from the gap where he was not armored, stabbed in.
One life for one life, come on, the soldiers of the right wing battalion roared wildly, they don't take their lives seriously, such opponents, even the cavalry are frightened, they are cavalry, and the infantry for a life, this is a great loss.
The rear army battalion soldiers led by Mu Yong were the most numerous, and they were also the most stable, not seeking to hurt the enemy, small formations set up large formations, and included the cavalry regiments in the encirclement, and then they were killed without any temper.
As for the two-handed swordsmen of the Si Pai, there is no need to mention, in the face of the cavalry who cannot charge, under their intensive attack, the horses or something, are just a part of their decomposition, often everywhere they pass, even the horses are crisscrossed with countless sword marks, as for the cavalry, the blood on the neck speaks for itself.
"Lord, although my subordinates can't understand this, if that's the case, it's indeed a good time to observe all the abilities of the generals!" Although Meng He couldn't understand it, he still chose to accept Chen He's explanation, because in addition to this explanation, he couldn't figure out what caused Chen He to make such a crazy move, and Chen He before him was completely like two people.
"Chuxia, don't blame me for not telling you, because for you, this place is indeed too mysterious, and you don't have the memories of this place yet! However, now that you have said it, you can also help the generals observe the generals, tell me your opinions, and after leaving, I will tell you the characteristics of the generals, and when the time comes, you will be able to better play the abilities of the generals! Chen He looked at Meng He and said.
"Yes, Lord! It's a pity that General Delong snatched back the 100,000 horses, but fortunately, everyone will not have this memory, otherwise, General Delong will definitely vomit blood in anger! Meng He suddenly teased, Delong, who had never entered his vision.
"It doesn't matter, since Delong has such talent, he will inevitably get some horses, as well as the generals, the horses that were matched to them in the past are not enough to give full play to their combat power, but now that they have real war horses, their strength has improved a lot!" Chen He didn't expect that Delong would surprise him so much.
"Well, the performance of the generals this time is indeed surprising, the ability of the general is no worse than that of General Huo, did the lord plan a long time ago to let General Mu deter the party in the future?" Meng He now let go of his mentality, looking at the performance of the generals, coupled with some of his own speculations and observations, he has a clear positioning for Mu Yong.
Similarly, what surprised him was Hu Shouyi's Fenglin Battalion, he had always thought that the Fenglin Battalion was not suitable for frontal combat, but now it seems that the cooperation between them is more suitable for this chaotic battle situation.
Of course, in this battle, the most brilliant may be Sun Shou's right-wing battalion, under Chen He's command, in addition to Delong, it was this Sun Shou, and this battle made him see a different Sun Shou and the right-wing battalion, brave, indifferent is Meng He's evaluation of Sun Shou, Sun Shou and the right-wing battalion on the battlefield are a group of silent killers, the feeling of silence, the psychological pressure on the opponent's cavalry, is definitely stronger than any army on the field.
When Chen He and Meng He were judging the generals, the battle situation on the field had changed greatly, Yan Wushuang was separated from the Xiaoyong battalion, Mo Ke was separated from the forward battalion, and Delong was also separated from the cavalry battalion.
In the end, after the cavalry paid a huge price, the sound of gold was heard, and hundreds of thousands of cavalry fled in disarray, leaving hundreds of thousands of corpses on the ground.
Similarly, Chen He also withdrew his troops, and the soldiers cheered that they had defeated the cavalry head-on. It's just that Chen He also knows that such a stupid thing as a frontal hard regret cavalry must not be done, more than 300,000 troops went to battle, although more than 100,000 cavalry were left, but the price paid by himself was greater, and only less than 100,000 people withdrew.
"Lord!" After returning to the mouth of the gourd, Mo Ke knelt in front of Chen He covered in blood and said: "You behead me, this battle is all due to my recklessness, I didn't have time to retreat, my subordinates are sorry for the lord!" "Mock is no longer a reckless man who doesn't know anything.
The army of more than 300,000 lost more than 200,000, just because he failed to withdraw in time after Mingjin, and the army paid more price in order to save him.
"Lord, the subordinates are guilty of the same sin!" Su Yi also knelt down.
"Lord, please forgive General Mo, this is not a crime of war!" After Mo Ke and Su Yi pleaded guilty, the rest of the generals asked for their lives to forgive Mo Ke and Su Yi, especially Huo Miao and Mu Yong, they all knew that this battle was wrong at the beginning, and when the Lord should not send troops, he ordered General Mo Ke to fight, and changed to other generals, maybe he would worry about it, and he would not rush out too far, but General Mo Ke is not that kind of forbearance.
"This battle is not your fault, it is the responsibility of the general!" Chen He got up and helped Mo Ke and Su Yi up, but he didn't say anything else, because if he said too much, what he saw was not the limit of the generals, but the death of the generals, which was not what he wanted to see, because he never wanted to see the generals under his command fall into such a desperate situation.
"It's the last general who is incompetent!" Seeing Chen He's actions, Mo Ke and Su Yi said again.
There were only three people present who could see that Chen He's command mistakes were Meng He, Mu Yong, and Huo Miao, Yan Wushuang and Lin Tiehu faintly felt that something was wrong, but they couldn't say why.
"Lord, now that our army has suffered heavy losses, my subordinates suggest retreating to the second line of defense!" At this time, Huo Miao opened his mouth and proposed, there are less than 100,000 soldiers, and there are many wounded, if it is not for the cavalry is really powerful, it will be sacrificed in vain, and the enemy will not retreat ninety percent, and the final result will be the annihilation of the whole army.
"Well, that's what Ben means! However, before this, the enemy has retreated, although there are many losses, but the losses of our army are still above them, they will inevitably wave their troops to attack again, and this time is the time when the enemy is most relaxed, especially the horses must be gathered and rest! Ben will want to sneak up on it once! Chen He nodded, but said after a while.
This time, Chen He did not give a direct order, the familiar style of painting returned, Huo Miao and Mu Yong were relieved, and Meng He then spoke: "Lord, the losses of the soldiers are indeed very large, but they also see the characteristics of the armies, and their subordinates suggest that General Hu lead the army, and the Fenglin battalion and General Sun's right-wing battalion are the main sneak attack!" At the same time, General Yan, General Mo, and General De also went with the army to inflict maximum damage on the enemy! ”
Chen He nodded, basically the same as he thought, the difference was that he originally planned to let Lin Tiehu also accompany the army, and then Huo Miao also spoke: "For the sake of insurance, I also asked the military division to mobilize archers to respond!" ”
"Yes, but it's not enough to be archers, General Lin's left wing battalion is responsible for protecting the archers, and General Ren's scout team must always observe the enemy's movements!" Meng He nodded.
"Do you have any suggestions?" Meng He and Huo Miao agreed to set the basic plan, and then Chen He looked around at the generals and asked.
"Lord, my subordinates feel that in order to prevent the enemy from gathering, it is necessary to send two more armies to contain them from the flanks!" Mu Yong's mouth made a suggestion.
As soon as this suggestion came out, Meng He and Huo Miao both pondered, and after a while, the two of them raised their heads at the same time, and then said: "What General Mu said is extremely true, if there are two armies from the flank, this battle will definitely be smoother!" ”
"The subordinates originally intended to lead an army to contain the left flank!" Mu Yong directly asked for help.
"Yes, Su Yi, the right flank is controlled by you leading the forward battalion and the brave battalion, do you have confidence?" Chen He nodded, and said to Su Yi again. Previously, when Moke was in the enemy's army, it was Su Yi who did his best to command the forward battalion, the brave battalion and the cavalry battalion left by the three generals.
Seeing the talent he recommended, he can finally lead the army alone, although he has not yet become independent, but it is enough to prove that the Lord has paid attention to his talent.
After the plan was completed, Chen He ordered the generals to rest first, and after half an hour, the sneak attack plan was implemented.
"Lord, the limits of the generals have been seen, and now although the soldiers have suffered heavy losses, their subordinates are more confident in the next battle!" The generals went to rest, and Meng He looked at Chen He and said.
"Yes, after understanding their abilities, put them in the most suitable position, and the strength they exert can be increased by at least three percent!" Chen He also nodded, deeply feeling that he had done the right thing this time, even if he lost this battle, he had nothing to lose, he could see the characteristics of the generals under his command, and assign them to the most suitable position when the time came, this is the most important thing.
"Lord, if this information is really impossible for your subordinates to remember, you must not forget to tell your subordinates that this battle General Sun and General Hu have a great shock to their subordinates, although they are not the generals who are in charge alone, but some battles, if handed over to them, are far more suitable than handed over to other generals!" Meng He thought of what Chen He said before, leaving here, he would not have any memories of here, and hurriedly said.
"Don't worry, you are the general's military advisor, if you don't understand the characteristics of the generals, how to make a plan, how to master the whole!" Chen He said with a slight smile, and Meng He also smiled.
