Volume 1, Battle Martial Continent 7, Leading the First Battle
In addition to being inferior to the other party in terms of troops, but in other aspects, Chen He really couldn't find the possibility that he would fail, and there were too many cases for reference in the thousands of years of war history in China.
The main thing is that because this mission has always been a fixed mode, the information of the bandits is transparent, and there is no change except for the different terrain encountered by individuals.
The next day, Chen He took a hundred elite soldiers out of the training camp and entered the field, and then Chen He directly ordered the twenty people of the first brigade to advance at a high speed and reconnoiter the terrain ahead, while the remaining forty people were in front of the Xuanxiang formation, playing more flags, and scattering the formation.
As they approached the bandits' old nest Songshan, the first team of swordsmen also completed the exploration of the terrain, and at the same time, they also killed the secret sentinels of ten bandits, after all, they were elite soldiers, and in a one-on-one situation, they completely abused ordinary soldiers, not to mention, they were still bandits who were not even ordinary soldiers.
After listening to the report of the captain of the first team, Chen He had a general impression of Songshan in his mind, this is a pass-like terrain, which can be called a pass, invincible, there is only one way into the mountain, and on which road, the bandits have set up five passes, and the first pass is garrisoned by 300 people, and there is also a general.
Faced with such a pass, after Chen He pondered for a while, he gathered the captains of the five teams, and then said: "Three hundred bandits, if you attack the pass, the loss will definitely be not small, so I decided to divide my troops to lure the enemy!" The first and second teams are ambushed around the pass, and as soon as the bandits break out of the pass, you will immediately raise your troops to seize the pass, and then clear the remaining bandits!
After exterminating the bandits on the pass, one person will be left behind, the pass will be closed from the inside, and the rest of the people will withdraw, still ambushed on both sides, and the bandits will turn around, and the pass will be called the pass, and I will lead the troops to chase after them, and raise troops again to encircle and annihilate them!
Remember, keep the losses to a minimum, or I'll remove you as captain even if you take the pass!
However, before that, there is still something to be done, you immediately go and gather the soldiers, dig a pit, at least three meters deep, insert sharp wooden thorns inside, dig one by one, and make a mark! ”
"Yes!" The captains of the five teams received the order at the same time.
"After digging the hole, the first and second teams can set off, and the remaining three teams will follow me to challenge later, remember, once the bandits rush out, they will retreat while fighting, and the enemy will be gone!" Chen He confidently arranged everything, and the rest was to see the soldiers' performance.
In less than an hour, five holes were dug and covered with sticks and leaves, sprinkled with a layer of floating earth, and surrounded by stick-made markings.
A quarter of an hour after the first and second teams set off, Chen He took the remaining sixty soldiers and rushed to Songshan unhurriedly, and saw a pass from a distance, and the bandits on it were standing lazily one by one, and Chen He's eyes narrowed slightly and said: "Third captain, you go to the front of the pass, persuade to surrender, be careful, once the bandits are angry and rush out, immediately retreat!" Why don't you lead them to the pit and kill them! ”
"Yes!" After the third captain received the order, he trotted to the pass, and his appearance immediately made the lazy bandits find out, although he was wearing a military uniform, but after all, he was just a person, and the bandits did not care, but looked curiously, not knowing what he was doing.
"Songshan bandits, listen, my family was ordered to suppress the bandits today, and those who know each other hurry out of the customs and surrender, my family is generous, give you a way to live, if not, you will be called to wait for your head to be in a different place!"
The shouting of the three captains immediately made the bandits furious, and at this time, Chen He also appeared in front of the pass with three teams.
A team of only sixty people, actually dared to persuade to surrender, the bandits on the opposite side were even more angry, after reporting to the generals guarding the pass, the general appeared above the pass, and then looked at Chen He from afar, and gave an order, with two hundred and seventy bandits, opened the pass, and ran out.
"There is no IQ at all, it's too routine!" Chen He muttered secretly, and then ordered the soldiers to turn around and run, although it was said that the frontal was hard, with sixty elite soldiers, more than two hundred bandits could be wiped out, but they would definitely have a lot of losses, and this was not what Chen He wanted to see.
What Chen He wants is not to kill the bandits, but to completely eliminate the bandits' nest.
Fleeing and chasing, they were far away from the pass after a while, and at this time, the first and second teams on both sides of Fu and the two sides immediately stepped forward, and without saying a word, they carried a simple ladder and launched an attack on the pass where there were only thirty people left.
And the remaining thirty bandits, seeing that the main general was chasing the enemy, one by one were also careless, and even the ladder was set up on the outer wall of the pass, they did not notice, until the first soldier jumped up and climbed the wall of the pass, they found that the enemy had been killed in front of them.
The soldiers who rushed to the wall, with a wave of their hands, the long sword was unsheathed, and they directly killed a bandit, and then the bandits reacted and shouted an enemy attack, and then the second and third soldiers also rushed up, and when the thirty bandits gathered and rushed up, twenty soldiers had already appeared on the pass, and they fought back without fear.
On the premise that the number of people does not occupy an overwhelming advantage, the combat power of the elite soldiers is completely abused by the bandits, and they are not damaged! When all the soldiers had gone up to the wall, the battle was over, and after a little clearance, the first and second teams left the pass again.
At the same time, Chen He also took sixty soldiers to the pit, and after seeing the sign, they avoided the pothole, and then reflexively lined up, looking at the bandits who were chasing closer and closer, and there was no formation to speak of, their faces showed anticipation and killing intent.
The general of the bandits saw that the soldiers on the opposite side stopped, although he felt that something was wrong, but because this place was empty, it didn't look like there was an ambush at all, so he didn't shout to stop the bandits, but rushed up in a nest, followed by the first bandit fell into the pit, and was immediately pierced by the wooden thorn and died.
Then the bandits, who couldn't stop their feet, fell into the pit one after another.
Five affirmations, four were directly triggered, seventy or eighty bandits were killed in the pit, and most importantly, the morale of the bandits was hit hard, and even because of the pits, the bandits did not dare to attack the soldiers who were close at hand.
"Kill!" Seeing that the bandits didn't dare to come, Chen He secretly said that it was a pity, which was frightened, but he didn't hesitate much, and with a wave of his hand, sixty elite soldiers, holding long swords, rushed along the left aisle.
It is naturally the captains of each team who take the lead, and they who enjoy the treatment of captains naturally have to take the lead, which is stipulated by Chen He. Just when the two parties were about to make contact, Chen He also launched a battle method, a sharp blade battle method and a calm war method.
Just a contact, there were two bandits, who were killed by the captain of the three teams who rushed over, and after vacating the space, the follow-up soldiers also followed, and in a small area, even the bandits who were not as good as ordinary soldiers were naturally not the opponents of elite soldiers, and after a while, the bandits suffered more than 30 casualties.
And the bandit generals saw that they had lost one-third of their manpower in such a short time, and that the other party had no one to lose their troops except for a few wounded, and suddenly realized that the opponent was not simple, and he didn't dare to fight anymore at the moment, and shouted to retreat, and the remaining 1670 people fled in a hurry.
When Chen He saw this scene, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, the bandits were bandits, and then ordered the injured to stay, and the rest of the people chased after him.
When the chase came out, the bandits were very excited, but when they were chased and killed, they were scared.
Between the pursuit and escape, the bandits burst out with a super desire to survive, it seems that as long as they can return to the pass, their lives can be guaranteed, so the escape speed that erupted was actually a third faster than when they were pursuing.
Seeing that he fled to the pass, the general shouted to the switch, but no one paid attention to him, and at this time, Chen He's pursuers were less than 100 meters away from them, and the bandits were even more panicked.
At this moment, the bandit general also realized that there was a problem with the pass, and at this moment, even if he wanted to climb the pass, he had no chance.
After ninety-seven soldiers surrounded nearly two hundred bandits with long swords, Chen He stepped forward and said, "Put down your arms, surrender, I will spare you from death!" ”
After seeing the combat effectiveness of the elite soldiers, the bandit general also knew that they had a chance, and immediately took the lead in throwing down his waist knife, and then the other bandits also gave up resistance one by one.
Seeing this scene, Chen He immediately asked the bandits to be taken into custody, and then took the bandits' generals to a room in the pass and asked, "What is your name, and what do you think of Mo Ke?" ”
"Returning to the adult, the villain is called Ren Hang, Boss Moke is a generation of males, but it's a pity that he is depressed and unwilling, and he is trapped in Songshan as a bandit, if Brother Moke is an official, at least he is also a member of the town!" Although Ren Hang is burdened, he still admires Moke, think about it, if it is not to worship him, how many people would mean to be bandits.
"So what do you think of the combat strength of my men?" Chen He asked again.
"It's definitely an elite, although there are only a hundred people, but a thousand people in Matsuyama are not the opponent of your soldiers!" After Ren Hang pondered for a while, he replied: "However, you can't capture Boss Moke, Boss Moke, his martial arts are extraordinary, and only one person is enough to stop fifty soldiers under your command!" ”
When Chen He heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, one person can block fifty elite soldiers under his command, if this Ren Hang didn't lie, this Mo Ke is indeed very tricky, he doesn't want to take his fifty elite soldiers for one Mo Ke.
What's more, if there is a fight, Mo Ke will not be able to flee immediately, he will definitely lead the bandits under his command to fight to the death, and when the time comes, a general with extraordinary martial arts will definitely be a big killer, and this soldier under his command, under the leadership of no general, may really be planted in his hands.
