"Go South......"

"Go to Yangguan to intercept the grain and grass of Li Zhaoliang's department, or rather, take Yangguan, cut off the connection between Li Zhaoliang's department and us, and then unite with the reinforcements led by Yeli Wangrong, attack from both sides, and swallow the ...... of Li Zhaoliang's department."

Kou Ji frowned and speculated.

Zhu Neng nodded solemnly and said, "We have been worried about changes in Li Yuanhao's layout, but we didn't expect there to be a change." He gave up the strategy of breaking into Guazhou and Shazhou.

Are you going to gather the Western Xia Iron Cavalry led by Yeli Wangrong to swallow Li Zhaoliang first, and then turn back to deal with us? ”

Kou Ji nodded and said, "Li Yuanhao has two preparations, which is reasonable and expected. ”

Kou Ji glanced at Zhu Neng, "I'm more concerned about how you are going to deal with the current situation. Divide the troops at Yangguan, or storm Yumen Pass, and help Li Zhaoliang's department open another back door. ”

The baggage of the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty in the Western Regions was all hoarded in Shazhou.

Li Zhaoliang has now broken into Suzhou.

If you want to send it to Li Zhaoliang, you can only pass through Yumen Pass and Yangguan.

Before Li Zhaoliang took Ganzhou and Xiliang, it was difficult for him to get any form of heavy support from the Great Song Dynasty.

"Hey......

Zhu Neng was silent for a while, and smiled gloomily, "Li Yuanhao has a good calculation, by giving up Yangguan, leading Li Zhaoliang into the game, leading us into the game, making us mistakenly think that he is going to attack Guazhou and Shazhou and disrupt our rear."

Now that we have entered the game, we are ready to take back Yangguan, block Li Zhaoliang's back road, attack from both sides, and eat Li Zhaoliang.

But he is also too inferior to me.

He also overestimated himself.

Yangguan can lose it if he wants to, and take it if he wants, how can it be so easy. ”

Kou Ji raised his eyebrows and asked hesitantly, "You have already divided your troops into Yangguan?" ”

"Not bad......"

Zhu Neng said with burning eyes: "In order to help Li Zhaoliang defend the back road, I have invested enough money." Invincible mine artillery, artillery, and hundreds of tigers are running together, and I am all placed in Yangguan. ”

Kou Ji was a little tempted to curse.

Zhu Neng, a madman, began to go crazy again.

Invincible mine artillery, artillery, and hundreds of tigers are running together, and the number is limited, which is the key to dealing with the iron harriers under Li Yuanhao's command.

According to Kou Ji's idea, if the iron harrier does not come out, invincible mine cannons, artillery and other objects should not be moved out.

Now that he hasn't seen the iron harrier, Zhu Neng has put all these things in Yangguan.

If the cavalry sent by Li Yuanhao to Yangguan was not an iron harrier?

What if Li Yuanhao still left the Iron Harrier in the Yumen Pass?

"You didn't leave some here?"

Kou Ji asked helplessly.

Zhu Neng shook his head very shamefully.

Kou Ji sighed and said, "If the person sent to Yangguan by Li Yuanhao is not an iron harrier?" ”

Zhu Neng groaned: "Even if it's not all the iron harriers, there are also some iron harriers. ”

Hearing this, Kou Ji nodded thoughtfully.

Annihilated the Iron Harrier, he didn't think about it.

If the Iron Harrier is so easy to be wiped out, it is not an Iron Harrier.

Previously, outside Shazhou City, Kou Ji also spent a lot of money to let the Iron Harrier lose his troops.

Even if the Iron Harrier was half-beaten, he did not order the patrol guards to pursue him.

It's not that he has the heart to let go of the Iron Harrier, but he knows in his heart that it is easy to kill the Crippled Iron Harrier, but it is difficult to destroy the Iron Harrier.

If the Iron Harrier really embarked on the road of escape, few people would be able to catch up.

It's possible that you won't be able to catch up with the Iron Harrier, and you'll have to put yourself in it.

The way to deal with the Iron Harrier is to lure the Iron Harrier to take the initiative to attack, and then set up an ambush to severely damage the Iron Harrier.

Now that Zhu Neng has set up an ambush in Yangguan, he can severely damage some of the iron harriers, which is not bad.

Kou Ji understood Zhu Neng's approach, stared at Zhu Neng and asked, "Then what did you do with a heavy face just now?" ”

Zhu Neng sighed: "Li Yuanhao's layout has changed, and our layout has to change with it." Before, we were reluctant to take Yumen Pass, in order to calculate Li Yuanhao on the basis of Li Yuanhao's calculations.

Now in order to ensure the safety of Li Zhaoliang's back, we have to fight with Li Yuanhao at Yumen Pass.

I just don't know how many iron harriers Li Yuanhao left in Yumen Pass.

During the previous battle in Guazhou, Li Yuanhao used the iron harrier to be majestic on the battlefield.

Compared with the immediate battle, we are always on the front line of weakness. ”

Kou Ji frowned slightly, the war is imminent, why does Zhu Neng grow the ambition of others and destroy his own prestige.

Zhu Neng saw Kou Ji's expression, probably expected Kou Ji's thoughts, and sighed slightly: "In this Hexi War, there are too many soldiers in my hands Zhu Neng. ”

Kou Ji's brow furrowed even tighter.

There is a way to be merciful, not to be in charge of soldiers.

Zhu Neng suddenly has a bodhisattva heart now, can he really command his soldiers to fight?

Zhu Neng saw that Kou Ji's brows were furrowed even tighter, so he smiled bitterly: "I understand the reason...... How can there be a reason for immortality in war......"

"That's it......"

"No more to say......"

Zhu Neng shook his head, straightened his face, and shouted: "All the soldiers listen to the order!" ”

"In!"

"According to the subordinates before this general, storm Yumen Pass!"

"Whoa!"

“……”

The more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in the camp moved quickly with Zhu Neng's order.

The soldiers put on armor and held blades, and quickly gathered under the general platform set by Zhu Neng.

Zhu Neng took Kou Ji and went to the stage.

"Storm Yumen Pass today, capture Li Yuanhao alive, reward horses, fields, gold and silver, and officials!"

"Roar!"

“……”

When Zhu Neng was in the big tent of the Chinese army, he was a bodhisattva.

On the platform, he is a majestic general.

In a short sentence, the morale of the soldiers was mobilized.

There is a posture of not breaking the jade gate and vowing not to return.

"Attack!"

Zhu Neng's oath declaration is only a short sentence.

The brevity was unbelievable.

Kou Ji only guessed a little, and roughly guessed the reason for the shortness of Zhu Neng's oath declaration.

No amount of bells and whistles can be said to be as real as a short declaration of reward.

The soldiers fought with their lives on the battlefield, what are they fighting for?

It's rich.

After being a soldier became a profession.

Eating sound has become the thing they care about the most.

The reward is what they care about most.

They don't care about the rest.

At least most people don't care.

After Zhu Neng gave the order to attack Yumen Pass, more than 40,000 soldiers formed a battle formation, left the barracks, and stepped towards Yumen Pass step by step.

The battle formation of more than 40,000 soldiers is very unique.

The shield men opened the way, and in front of them formed two phalanxes of a thousand men.

It was followed by a phalanx of two thousand spearmen.

The two wings spread out in a figure of eight, and the swords and spears were mixed, forming two phalanxes of 10,000 people.

The soldiers pushing siege engines, trebuchets and other large ordnance formed four phalanxes in the center.

The Ma army formed a battle formation of 10,000 people in the rear and sealed the entrance.

The formation of the army was slowly formed the moment it left the camp.

When the Ma army came out of the camp, it was completely formed.

Slowly pushed towards the Yumen Pass.

It wasn't until this moment that Kou Ji understood why he humbly claimed that he didn't know anything about military affairs, while no one else refuted it.

With such a formation, he couldn't understand it, and he couldn't arrange it.

Although he has experienced a lot of wars, large and small.

When such a formation, it was the first time he had seen it.

Condescendingly, the formation looks like a trapezoid.

It looks simple, but it's not easy to arrange.

It is necessary to accurately convey the order to the ears of every soldier, so that the formation will not be panicked.

Once a soldier makes a mistake, it will affect a large number of people.

The whole formation will be flustered as a result.

Such a formation has requirements for leading generals, generals and colonels at all levels, and soldiers at all levels.

It is not only necessary to enforce orders and prohibitions, but also to practice frequently in order to do so.

Kou Ji vaguely remembered that when he was in the later generations, many people in the later generations admired the way of the military formation in the later generations.

I feel that the way of the military formation in later generations is far stronger than in ancient times.

In later generations, Kou Ji also agreed with this view.

But it wasn't until he witnessed the way of the military formation in ancient times that he understood that the way of the military formation in ancient times did not have to be bad at all in later generations.

Not only that, but also to strengthen the way of the military formation in the future.

In the era of scarce communication facilities, it was far more difficult to maintain a large number of soldiers and horses than in later generations.

Kou Ji followed Zhu Neng and stayed in the formation all the time, so he could see how Zhu Neng ran this large array of more than 40,000 people.

From the moment they entered the formation, to the group all appeared in front of the Yumen Pass.

Zhu Neng only gave three orders.

You must know that at this moment, Zhu Neng is not in command of the Yongning Army trained by himself, nor is it the Dragon God Second Guard trained by himself.

It is the Xingguo Army, who has little communication with Zhu Neng.

The Xingguo Army can easily complete such a military formation under the command of Zhu Neng.

This shows that they train a lot under the ground on weekdays.

Kou Ji used to look down on the soldiers of the forbidden army a little, and felt that the soldiers of the forbidden army were very ordinary.

Now I found out that because of the influence of a lot of knowledge in later generations, I had a certain prejudice against the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty.

The elite of the forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty is still very strong.

The fact that they can form a perfect formation under the command of an unfamiliar general is enough to explain everything.

"Bang ......"

The drums of war sounded on the battlefield.

It's like people's hearts beating, urging people's emotions to rise and fall together.

When Zhu Neng led the army to press the Yumen Pass.

A dull horn sounded over the head of the Yumen Pass.

The sound of the horn is not to remind the Western Xia soldiers and horses in the Yumen Pass that there is an enemy attacking.

Rather, it is conveying commands.

As early as when there was movement in the Song army's barracks, Li Yuanhao climbed to the head of the city of Yumen Pass.

As early as when Li Yuanhao sent soldiers and horses to rush out of Yumen Pass, he was ready for a big battle.

The Western Xia soldiers at the head of the city bent their bows and arrows and faced the Song army under the city.

The Western Xia iron cavalry in the city, holding swords and guns, sat on horseback, waiting to go out of the city at any time to rush out of the city.

Replacing defense with merit is a style of Western Xia, Liao and other forces when fighting.

Rolling wood, gravel, gold juice and other things.

The Western Xia soldiers and horses were also prepared.

But they never pinned the victory or defeat of the war on these external objects.

They believe more in the knife in their hands and believe in themselves more.

Every time the battle to defend the city.

It has become a habit to lead the army to rush and kill.

Only the Song army would like to hide in the city, taking advantage of the convenience of the city to consume the enemy's strength.

But I have to admit it.

The Song army is the first in the world in defending the city.

As long as there are enough troops, there is enough food and grass.

The Song army can stay in a city until it is old.

The soldiers and horses of Western Xia and Liao could not do it.

Even if there are countless grains and grasses and countless troops in the city, as long as someone provokes outside the city, the soldiers and horses of the two major forces of Western Xia and Liao will definitely rush out of the city to fight for a while.

is as strong as the Liao State, and in defending the city, it also has to learn from the Song State.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The dull sound of a horn landed.

The Song army had already arrived at the city and was within the range of the Western Xia crossbows.

The order flag held by Li Yuanhao in his hand slowly fell.

The strings vibrate.

One arrow after another shot at the Song army.

The Song army under the city immediately stretched out their shields and erected them on the ground to resist the arrows on the city.

The arrows that reached the top of the city fell for a while.

Zhu Neng ordered.

"Put!"

In the middle of the formation, the trebuchet catapulted one after another large fireballs, flew into the Yumen Pass, and flew into the city.

The large fireball thrown by the trebuchet suppressed the arrow attack of the Western Xia soldiers and horses on the city.

The shield soldiers carried huge shields and quickly advanced forward.

The soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty, who lived in the middle of the formation, pushed siege vehicles and set up ladders, and quickly caught up with the shield soldiers and spearmen.

By the time the trebuchet's attack stopped, the shield soldiers had advanced to the Jade Gate.

The arrows on the top of the city fell again.

The shieldmen stretched out their huge shields and opened a path.

The auxiliaries set up ladders and built a path in the trench.

Armed with round shields, the jumpers flew across the trench with the help of a ladder and rushed to the rope bridge where it had been hoisted.

The ropes snapped under the slashes of the Jumpers.

"Bang ......"

The rope bridge made of giant wood fell heavily to the ground.

A deep pit was smashed into the ground.

"Kill!"

"Retreat!"

Li Yuanhao snorted coldly.

The city gate of Yumen Pass was slowly opened, and the Western Xia cavalry, who were eager to try behind the city gate, rushed out of Yumen Pass like a tide.

Zhu Neng immediately led the way and let the jumping soldiers and auxiliary soldiers retreat.

The shield soldiers quickly assembled and built a line of defense under the Yumen Pass.

The pikemen advanced quickly, spear in hand, and stabbed through the gap in the shield array.

"Bang ......"

The war horse slammed into the shield array with a dull sound.

The wailing of horses and the sound of spears piercing flesh resounded one after another on the battlefield.

Under the assault of the Western Xia cavalry several times.

A gap was opened in the shield array.

The Western Xia soldiers and horses rushed into the formation, wielding their swords and slashing hard.

The soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty, who formed the first shield array, began to engage with the Western Xia soldiers and horses in short combat, fighting for their lives.

The second course.

The third course.

The fourth course.

A series of three shield formations were formed.

Prevent the Western Xia soldiers and horses from continuing to attack.

Human life melts away on the battlefield like mustard.

The horses were neighing and wailing.

The corpse lay on the ground in an instant.

There are soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty, and there are also soldiers and horses of the Western Xia.

Arrows rained down on the city.

The big fireballs that burst rushed to the top of the city, smashing out one crater after another.
