Chapter 115: Victory in the First Battle
"Lord, how are we going to fight next?" Tai Shi Ci looked at Zhang Hao and asked.
"I'm going to take advantage of the fact that they are still unprepared, and come with a big one first." Zhang Hao said with a mysterious smile.
"What's big?" Zhang Fei asked excitedly.
"At our speed, continue to the distance of half a day to the east, there is a city called Susheng Bone City, which was the royal city of Goguryeo in the past, and now although the royal city has moved to the domestic city, the Susheng Bone City is still a big city second only to the royal city."
"Let's fight this Susheng Bone City?" Zhao Yun asked.
"That's right, we'll take the city tomorrow." Zhang Hao nodded and said.
"Then are we going to occupy the Bone City?"
"No, you can loot it after taking it, but you must withdraw quickly." Zhang Hao shook his head and said.
"Why should we give it back to the city that we have finally conquered, we will definitely be able to defend it if we want to defend it, our soldiers are not only good on the horse, but also not cowardly when they dismount." Zhang Fei said aggrievedly.
"You, you've read a lot of military books, why don't you use them." Zhang Hao looked at this Zhang Fei and shook his head and said.
"It's not like you, why do I want to do so much." Zhang Fei said with a smile.
Zhang Fei is indeed right, he is not a reckless man, but a general who is familiar with military books, but he is too lazy to think about it when he is with his own people, which also shows Zhang Fei's trust in him from the side.
"We are deep behind enemy lines, isolated and helpless, but people have a steady stream of soldiers, even if we can hold it, as long as they besiege the city, they can trap us in the city." Zhang Hao shook his head and explained.
"Okay, it's cheaper for them, put it with him first, and sooner or later, I will occupy all their cities." Zhang Fei said with a pout.
"This time we're just here to block them, to weaken their army by the way, and to prepare for our big attacks in the future."
"And Goguryeo is also a farming people, not a nomadic people, there are not many cavalry, and the cavalry is not as elite as us, if you are not greedy for merit, it will be difficult for them to find our traces."
"If we do it right, maybe we can bring these brothers back alive without losing a single soldier." Zhang Hao smiled and said, giving a few people a hope.
The three of them all showed expressions of hope when they heard Zhang Hao's words, and looked back at their soldiers, as if there was something more in their eyes, as if they were saying to these soldiers in their hearts I must bring you all back.
These soldiers were all personally selected by them, trained little by little, and even a small part of them were brought out in Xinghuo Village, and the three of them naturally cherished these soldiers very much.
"Okay, I'll go and inspect again, you guys rest quickly, there will be a battle tomorrow, if anyone makes a command mistake and breaks the general, see how I clean you up." Zhang Hao got up and walked to the periphery as he spoke, Zhang Fei and the three of them looked at each other and smiled, and they all lay down to rest.
After resting for one night, the next day the army rushed straight to the city of Susheng bones, at this time the city of Susheng bones did not have the slightest preparation, when a large number of cavalry rushed to the city, they did not even react.
It may be that over the years, he has always gone out to plunder others, and he has rarely been beaten to his hometown, and the defense is a mess, and he has rushed to the city and still hasn't closed the city gate.
Zhang Hao was secretly happy in his heart, waved his big hand, and rushed directly into the city gate with people, waving the cold electric silver gun in his hand again and again, killing the enemy in front of him, and rushing towards the city non-stop.
The soldiers behind him also rushed in, and after the soldiers and the Goguryeo soldiers handed over, Zhang Hao was shocked that these Goguryeo soldiers were very strong in combat.
If these elite cavalry soldiers do not use the advantages of war horses and weapons and use the same equipment as the other party, I am afraid that the victory or defeat will only be five or five, and it may be difficult to gain an overwhelming advantage by having a slight advantage.
But these soldiers of Zhang Hao are not only strong in themselves, but also inferior to these Goguryeo soldiers in terms of equipment, and there is no fairness on the battlefield.
Whether it is the strength of the war horse or the advantage of the weapon, it is a kind of strength, and it is impossible for anyone to give up their excellent equipment, change into the same equipment as the other party, and play a fair duel.
Although this Susheng Bone City was the former royal city, it was also one of the richest cities in Goguryeo.
However, it may be due to the fact that it was built relatively early, and it didn't take long for the royal city to be moved to the domestic city, and the scale of this Bone City was not too large, and there were not too many soldiers stationed in the city, only about two or three thousand.
It didn't take long for the Goguryeo soldiers in the city to be cleaned up, Zhang Hao lit three sticks of incense and handed them to Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, and Tai Shici and said:
"Acting separately, Ziyi led the Feiyu Battalion to the south, Zilong led the Longwu Battalion to the north, Yide took the Huwei Battalion to the middle and plundered at will, but everything he got belonged to the soldiers."
"Try not to slaughter the unarmed people, but if there is a rebel, there is no forgiveness, and it is strictly forbidden to ** women, after this pillar of incense is burned out, the army gathers at the west gate, and we rush out through the west gate."
The three incense sticks are the same thickness and length, and they are lit at the same time, which can basically ensure that they will burn out at the same time, and they can burn for about an hour, which is enough time for the army to evacuate before the reinforcements arrive.
At this time, there is no watch, no real-time intercom, and I want the army to evacuate at the same time, which is the best way Zhang Hao can think of.
The three of them took the incense in Zhang Hao's hand and passed the order down layer by layer, and suddenly heard a group of soldiers cheering and jumping, and then rushed towards the direction of their own team against time.
What are these soldiers fighting for? What to say about protecting the family and defending the country, the most basic thing is to be a soldier to have food to eat, so as not to starve to death, and then to get more money, power, and women.
If you can't get anything, people will follow you desperately to fight, anyway, this time they are here to block Goguryeo, Zhang Hao doesn't mind letting these soldiers loot, after getting the benefits, the battle will definitely be harder.
Although Zhang Hao doesn't mind letting the soldiers plunder property, he is still very disgusted with the indiscriminate killing of innocents and raping ** women, not to mention that if national integration can be achieved in the future, these people are all very good laborers.
After an hour's time, basically the city was looted, and when the incense burned out, Zhang Fei and the three came to the west gate with their respective soldiers.
At this time, the soldiers plundered a lot of property one by one, and each of them had an extra package on their horses, large or small, and everyone's face was filled with a satisfied smile.
"Lord, the Flying Feather Camp has arrived."
"The Dragon Martial Battalion is also ready."
"The Huwei camp is full of people."
"Okay, retreat." Zhang Hao waved his hand and rushed out of the city gate with the army, and the army came and went quickly, from the siege to the plunder, and then to the evacuation without a trace, it didn't take half a day in total.
