Chapter Ninety-Eight: Respect for Opponents
After Bai Yong got off a city, he led his troops to continue to attack the next city, and when the remnants of the army did not withdraw and report the defeat, Bai Yong had already conquered another city, and this army was once again called the Heavenly Soldiers, although it was no longer a team composed of specially trained warriors and air masters, although it was now on the battlefield of a foreign country,
In short, in only three days, Bai Yong led people to kill under the capital of North Korea, originally he just wanted to quickly resolve the safety of his right side and completely eliminate hidden dangers, but he never expected that it would only take three days so quickly.
Bai Yong personally opened the gate of the capital of North Korea, in fact, Kyoto was not here, but the Li Dynasty moved the capital here after seeking the world, so the city defense is not very perfect, the soldiers and horses defending the city still want to resist stubbornly, they also know that they and the Mongols are allies and the Ming is the enemy, the situation can not be the same, now can not surrender without a fight like surrendering the Mongols, the country will not have its own good, so I simply want to fight to the death, The Ming army's usual record of zero casualties here is a loss of dozens of people.
For the war, especially the siege of the city, it is not a matter of killing thousands of people, but the lack of damage in the early stage caused Bai Yong to be extremely angry when he saw the loss of his soldiers, so he stood in front of the queue with the imperial qi division, where to put the arrows, the air bombardment, the dust was flying for a while, the city tower was in a panic, there were collapsed and destroyed city walls everywhere, the fire oil of the city defense was overturned and burned by the brazier, and for a time the fire was blazing, and the whole city was bright.
In the end, even if he didn't release the arrow, Bai Yong also used the invisible qi control technique to hit the city wall that had become flat, the soldiers were dead or wounded, and those who did not die did not dare to fight, and Bai Yong dared to shout Bai Yong followed, in short, the forbidden army no longer dared to resist, and surrendered again, the country is dead, and now it is faster to resist death, it is better to die than to live, save your life first,
Bai Yong led the troops into the city, along the way the Goryeo people were captured, but when they reached the vicinity of the palace, Bai Yong encountered the most tenacious resistance since the attack on Goryeo, a group of Mongols were just about to escape, and Bai Yong's large army met, in the densely populated place of the people, Bai Yong could not bear to use the art of imperial qi to bombard the house, after all, the people are innocent and the soldiers are different, the two sides have their own casualties in the street, and they both rely on bunkers and shields to cover their bodies and cannot make each other casualties, the two sides coincide and choose the horse battle in the street battle,
After a round of sprinting on both sides, three hundred Mongolian cavalry all fell to the ground, after all, the Ming army that was more than a hundred times their own, and they were all elite cavalry and the quality of the Mongolian soldiers was almost the same, and the leader of the charge was Bai Yong and a few other imperial qi divisions, even if they were brave and could not escape this catastrophe, even if the situation was so favorable to the Ming army, but the Ming army still lost more than the enemy's number of cavalry in the case of a large advantage in numbers, and suffered four hundred casualties, Bai Yong turned over and dismounted, checking the Mongolian soldiers who had been cut down to the ground,
After a long time, he dragged something around the neck of one of them, and buckled a tooth on their knife, and said to the lieutenant next to him: "It turned out to be a Mongolian wolf rider, no wonder it is so powerful." ”
Mongolian wolf cavalry is a famous iron army on the Mongolian steppe, the history is very long, combat effectiveness and the eagle of the king is equal, in recent years the limelight is greatly overshadowed by the eagle of the king, why do you say that, because the eagle of the king is equivalent to the Han royal guards, only responsible for protecting the Khan at a critical juncture will let them participate in the ordinary fighting, and the wolf cavalry is different, engaged in difficult work, scouts, charging into battle, luring the enemy deep, tearing the enemy's defensive circle, etc., in short, where there is danger, there is a wolf rider, where there is a wolf to ride, there will be victory,
Along with honor and fame comes hard training and huge casualties, first want to enter the wolf riding to be extremely proficient in equestrianism, much stronger than the average Mongolian, can bend a big bow, at least can also be able to pull the bow of two stones, not only to open but also to be able to shoot accurately, the average Mongolian shoots at most one stone and two buckets to one stone and five buckets of bows, but the elite wolf riders can not be the same, all use two stones, of course, they will not exaggerate to use a three-stone bow with the eagle of the king, After all, the wolf rider is often a scout, and it is more appropriate to be dexterous and light.
It's not enough to just be born with divine power, the Mongols have little training, and generally go out to fight after herding sheep and heard that they turned over their horses after the war, each of them is a natural warrior, but the wolf rider is different, they need to train, and the training is very strict, this rule is passed down by Genghis Khan, of course, the wolf rider was not formed by Genghis Khan, during the period of great unification, the wolf rider has existed for hundreds of years,
The wolf rider has the professional honor of a soldier, they are one of the few full-time soldiers in the desert, never grazing by the sweat to pay for it, living is for training, training is to kill, the long history and endless honor teach the wolf rider, they have never disobeyed orders, and have never flinched and surrendered, even if the enemy is ten times or even a hundred times more than themselves, they still move forward bravely, today they fight to the end, so that the Ming army also pays a lot of price,
It is worth mentioning that the wolf rider has a very strong tradition, that is, all the members have a sense of arrogance, although they do not disobey the order but will never be like the scouts of the Central Plains, just to probe the enemy, such as ten people go out to explore the enemy, and find that the other party is only a hundred, if the Han scouts are most likely to go back to report, after all, the duty of the scouts is to detect and monitor, but the wolf riders are different, they think that they are all good men with one enemy and one hundred, so as long as it is not more than one to ten, they will rush out, Under normal circumstances, they will achieve victory, kill several times and flee with their enemies, that is, complete the blow and probe the enemy's situation,
As warriors, today they are lucky, they met Bai Yong, an opponent who can fight with them, as a person, they are also unfortunate today, because this is the tens of thousands of elites led by Bai Yong,
Bai Yong sneered and looked at the corpse of the wolf rider and said, "The number of such elite wolf riders should not be too many, it seems that these three hundred people are enough to make them hurt their muscles and bones for a while." ”
The general on the side continued: "They have injured our brothers, should we crush them to ashes to vent the anger of the sergeants." Bai Yong waved his hand and said, "Send someone to take care of these corpses, and after capturing Li Yao, the faint king, we will bury these Mongolian Tatars." ”
"General, why is that?" The general said puzzled, Bai Yong didn't answer him, paused and turned back to the soldiers behind him: "These Mongols fought very bravely, they did not flinch in the face of hundreds of times more enemies, they are first-class good men are warriors, worthy of our respect, I want to bury them to tell you, we must despise the enemy's arrogant combat, but at the same time, we must also pay attention to the enemy and even respect those warriors who died on the battlefield, whether they are Han or Mongolian, they are worthy of our iron-blooded men." ”
