Section 434 Peach blossoms are still smiling in the spring breeze, down
Zhao Yue did things a little anticlimactic, and after the three capitals of the peninsula descended to two capitals, he got on the boat and left. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
He came to the Northern Army not to replace the Northern Army Headquarters to command the war, but to reduce his father's burden, care about his father, carry out his strategic intentions on the peninsula, and at the same time support the Northern Army Headquarters to further enhance the prestige of Du Bao and Xiao Jiasui.
After the pre-war military meeting before, he didn't care about the specific fight, and let the headquarters of the Northern Army do it, and when the generals of the battalions asked him about this, he responded to everything: Go and ask your commander and chief of staff. They never talk about military and political affairs, they only talk about family life, and only talk about friendship.
As for his participation in every major battle, the purpose of his participation in every major battle was to further observe the quality of the Northern Army on the battlefield and fulfill the promise made to all officers at the military conference: I will fight side by side with you. It does not interfere with the on-site command and dispatch of the generals participating in the war.
Zhao Yue knew very well that in politics and military affairs, his advantage lies in the prediction of history and the accurate understanding of the world, and the formulation of the overall strategic layout is what he is best at; there is no one in this world to compare, and he is not good at specific government affairs and wars, nor is he interested, and fighting and fighting are forced by the reality of this special historical period, and he must not do it.
Again, professional things should be done by professional people.
Moreover, even if He is omnipotent, even if He is the true God, it is impossible to do everything himself. Someone else has to be responsible for everything. Gathering the wisdom of the masses is the foundation for transforming society and promoting human development.
As for the brutal decision-making of the newly conquered territories, Zhao Yue didn't care who blamed.
There is no future for the country of gentlemen. The country of hypocrites who are only good at pitting their own people has no future.
It is the most cost-effective account to treat foreign countries and rectify the world by forceful and brutal means, so that future generations of Chinese people will not have endless troubles, threats and troubles around them, and besides, it may not be a good thing for the long-term future of foreign races, and it will be more beneficial to the overall development of the world.
Zhao Yue has a clear conscience and a calm mood, and the strategic goal in his heart will not be shaken in any way.
When Xiao Jiasui's troops attacked Tuo Junjing, Du Bao's troops swept away the local armed forces that did not surrender. There was a small episode in this episode, and a guy named Gong Qi claimed to be a descendant of the Gong descendant, that is, a descendant of the royal family of the peninsula dynasty in front of the Goryeo Dynasty.
King Jian of Goryeo Kai is similar to Zhao Taizu of the Northern Song Dynasty, who was originally a general of the previous dynasty, and later obtained the right to rule the peninsula by virtue of military power in a special historical period.
The truth of history is forever shrouded in the fog of time.
In order to regain the power of the Gong descendants, he secretly found some capable helpers to create a rebellious military organization, in a vain attempt to overthrow the corrupt Goryeo rule and restore the former authority and glory of his family, but he also belonged to the funny school in history, and was wiped out by the corrupt Goryeo Dynasty without a few tosses, only creating some social trauma, which shows how mismatched its strength and ambition are.
In this life, because of the Cangzhao group's meddling in the affairs of the peninsula, the conditions for Gongqi's rebellion were much better.
This guy is just like the curtain Rongfu in "Tianlong Babu" who is bent on restoring the country, and for this reason, he can do whatever it takes, in order to raise funds to strengthen the rebel organization, and desperately sell all the interests of the peninsula that can be sold to the Cangzhao trade fleet that comes to the peninsula to trade, whether it is the peninsula's resources, intelligence, population slaves, and technical talents...... What the fleet needs, he kills, arsons, and robs in exchange for as much money as possible, and in essence, it is actually a big national scum who hates Goryeo with a certain strength among the people, and he is more active than anyone else in betraying national interests.
The war disaster that suddenly came to the peninsula made Gong Qi and these people surprise to see the opportunity, actively carry out activities, and are eager to prepare for the opportunity to start an incident, open the capital to break, and the king of Goryeo surrenders, so that Gong Qi can no longer sit still, and his ambition suddenly explodes, and he arranges forces to start an incident.
The head of the Goryeo government where he was entrenched had been made his own by some means, so the official secretly cooperated, and the rebel army of the Gongqi tribe easily entered the city to eradicate the hostile and disobedient officials, and controlled the city and the military and government, and then revealed his identity, pulled up the banner of the great cause of recovery, and issued a proclamation to denounce the corruption and incompetence of the rulers of Goryeo, greedy for life and fear of death, and angrily scolded the king of Goryeo for being shameless and wasteful, easily surrendering to the pirates, betraying the country for glory and stealing his life, losing the face of the people of the peninsula, and calling on the people of the peninsula to unite urgently. Resolutely opposed the will of the king of Goryeo to surrender, and followed him, a descendant of the royal family of the former dynasty who loved the peninsula and the people of the peninsula, fought hard to fight off the pirates......
There are still capable people under Gong Qi, and the announcement seized the opportunity, the content is not bad, and it is even more demagogic at this juncture.
The sticks in this city and around them only care about bowing their heads and struggling to make a living, and they don't have the heart to take care of anything else, and they were not interested in the rebellion of the remnants of the previous dynasty, but at this moment they were instigated, and they were disappointed in the king and responded positively for self-preservation, and many of them took the initiative to participate.
Gong Qi was very proud, he couldn't help but be high-spirited, his ambition swelled with his confidence, and he seemed to have the support of public opinion, the legendary terrifying pirate army was not an opponent at all, he could fight down as soon as he made a move, and he was so arrogant that he wrote a letter to the Goryeo military god Tuo Junjing who refused to surrender to the pirates, asking him to return to support him, of course, the words will not reveal the true arrogance and arrogance, and the temptation to promise the high-ranking officials and lords an infinitely bright future.
Tuo Junjing was disdainful, sneered and only mocked: "Jumping beam clown." "Tear the letter to shreds and throw it into the wind.
Tuo Junjing is conceited of his military talents, has a strong army, and if he does not obey the king's will and surrenders, he wants to take the opportunity to be the king, and when he is ambitious, how can he bow his head to the weak royal family before the decline as a little brother to listen to others riding on the neck and shouting five and six. In order to resist foreign enemies, Gong Qi has a certain number of troops, which is a powerful force, and it is almost the same to bow to him and call his ministers small.
Gong Qi failed to solicit him, but was humiliated, scolding Tuo Junjing for having no eyes and ignorance of current affairs, and actually did not hurry to join him, the former royal family with the most appeal to the people of the peninsula, at the most critical juncture on the peninsula, and did not hug the thigh of his true dragon emperor and followed the breakthrough to solve the crisis.
But scolding and scolding, without a powerful helper like Tuo Junjing, his confidence was hit hard, and then another blow was blown.
Zhao Yue didn't know the history of Goryeo, and he didn't know that there was such a thing as a person like Gong Qi and rebellion, so he couldn't instruct the relevant departments of the empire to be vigilant, but after more than ten years of trade and spy infiltration on the peninsula, how could a guy like Gong Qi who actively betrayed the peninsula and had ambition and a certain strength escape the eyes of spies. Zhu Fu, the smiling tiger who presided over the business and espionage work of the peninsula, had already felt the pulse of Gong Qi several years ago.
Gong Qi actively launched a military operation here, vowing to go abroad to insult the country, and Shi Jin, who was sweeping hundreds of miles away nearby, had already prepared, according to the plan of the headquarters, first let Gong Qi make a fuss and gather the surrounding Goryeo forces to facilitate the capture of them, and then wave his 10,000 cavalry to kill fiercely.
Before, the headquarters felt that Chen Da and Yang Chun were not strong enough, and in order to increase the combat effectiveness of Shi Jin's department and give full play to the impact of the cavalry, they sent Zhao Yue's double-hammer generals in Liao, Ning Zuo and Ning You, to be the deputy generals of the charge.
Powerful pirate cavalry is coming. Gong Qi was stopped by the bold words that he had put forward to inspire the people, and he couldn't get off the stage, so he couldn't shrink into the city and simply play the defensive battle of defending the city, and he had to send troops out to fight the pirates and win a victory to fulfill his words.
In addition, at this moment, his soldiers and horses have increased from the original civilian military strength of about 30,000 for rebellion, and the officers and soldiers in the city have been added, and with the support of the new "heroes" and local heroes, the strength of the army has skyrocketed to nearly 100,000, including two or three thousand cavalry.
The Bow Army left 20,000 to defend the city, and sent 80,000 troops to take the initiative to attack, and set up a formation on a favorable terrain twenty miles away from the city.
Shi Jin got a scout report on the march, led the army to slowly rush to accumulate horsepower, and arrived at the point where the Bow Army was blocked, two miles away, and raised a telescope to take a closer look.
I saw that the Bow Army was divided into three parts: left, middle and right.
The middle is the main force, when the road is blocked, it looks from afar all the dense human heads, I don't know how many people, the front row of the array is the sword and shield soldiers, followed by the pikemen and archers, this arrangement is the most typical infantry blocking against the cavalry to destroy the phalanx to disrupt the defensive layout of the military formation, the Great Song Dynasty border army to resist the Liao and Western Xia army is usually also arranged.
The left and right divisions took advantage of the terrain of this place, and both were stationed on small high slopes, all of them were about 10,000 people, and there were cavalry waiting in front of the formation, estimated to have more than 1,000 horses each. The cavalry is not listed in the middle army, but is on the slopes on both sides, which is convenient for condescending horses to charge and kill, and is also conducive to fighting against cavalry.
Back-attacking climbs must have greatly affected the speed of the horses. Playing low and high is more disadvantageous for both melee and long-range attacks.
Speaking of bows and arrows alone, standing at a high place to shoot arrows, the same firing ability can undoubtedly shoot arrows farther and more lethal.
"Look at this formation, there are boards, eyes and rules, and Gong Qi's subordinates have capable people who are proficient in military affairs, not all arrogant straw bales."
Shi Jin praised with a smile.
Chen Da smiled disdainfully when he heard this: "It's a pity that they are outdated, and they are too confident and self-confident, look at how he cries and howls miserably for a while." ”
The generals laughed.
Shi Jin also smiled, and when everyone had laughed enough, he suddenly restrained his expression and said seriously: "This gang of sticks is vainly trying to restore the country, and with the motivation to protect the homeland, they still have a certain will to resist." The number of people is large, and the equipment is not bad. War is not to be taken lightly. ”
"Brothers, we must fight this battle well, and we must not lose the face of our army and become the laughing stock of the Northern Army. Otherwise, the soldiers will have more losses, which will make people's hearts ache, not to mention, how to raise their heads in front of their colleagues in the army in the future? ”
The generals nodded, condensed their spirits, aroused their fighting spirits, clenched their weapons, responded in unison, and waited for the military order.
Shi Jin ordered: "Chen Da, Yang Chun, and the two brothers each bring a thousand men and horses, and are responsible for dealing with the enemy troops on both sides. ”
"Remember, you don't have to storm the hillside to ask for hardship, you just need to protect the two flanks of the main force of the Chinese army, block the two sides of the charge, and destroy it on the flat ground. As soon as our Chinese army rushes at them as the main force, the left and right divisions always have to rush down and respond sideways. ”
Chen and Yang responded: "Get the order, understand." ”
"Brother Zuoyou, the two of you and I form a sharp knife and go straight to the direction of the banner of the enemy's main force. Let's have a black tiger to dig out the heart, concentrate the forces and only hit one place, regardless of the rest, and let his advantage in the army become an ornament. The other generals led their subordinates to perform their duties. ”
The generals ordered to act quickly.
Shi Jin did not hesitate to delay the time, and when the military order was conveyed and the division of troops was completed, he immediately picked up his horse and took the lead in the charge.
The war horse sighed and left a loud scream, and began to run under the urging of its master. Shi Jin's personal guards hurriedly followed.
The 8,000 cavalry started in an instant, their iron hooves roared, and they adjusted to form a sharp knife formation while jogging and pounced on the enemy on the road.
Usually trained hard, the army is well-trained, and when it comes to the battlefield, it can change formations so quickly and orderly. It can be seen that Shi Jin has made great efforts on weekdays.
Shi Jin reached a distance of about 300 meters and fired a crossbow. The front part of the cavalry in the rear was lit up within about 500 meters of the enemy, and the new version of the Divine Arm Crossbow was used for projectile fire. This distance is the effective range of the bolt projectile.
With the sound of buzzing crossbows, thousands of bolts were fired as intensively as possible at the enemy forces that were about to charge.
The Archers never expected that the opponent's bow and arrow could shoot so far, and they were caught off guard, and in their horror, they were instantly killed and injured by the kinetic energy that fell from the sky and accelerated by gravity.
As the cavalry brigade continued to rush into effective range, more crossbow arrows were fired, converging into an overwhelming force, and a wide gap was made in the target of the attack, where the enemy troops still standing were like the stumps of a wheat field after the summer harvest, and there were few solitary ones.
When they had reached about 200 meters from the enemy position, the front army switched its shooting to almost flat fire, clearing the target area of sword and shield men, pikemen and archers. By the time they rushed to the enemy's formation, the cavalry army had already adjusted to the sharp knife formation, and the speed of the war horses had also increased, and they had the strongest impact power. Shi Jin collected the crossbow and lifted the three-pointed knife, and shouted loudly with both arms to break into the gap and break into the enemy group, and the treasure knife slashed the blocker.
Ning Zuo and Ning You followed closely, wielding sledgehammers left and right in Shi Jin's core, roaring and killing, and there was no one under the hammer.
At this moment, the cavalry of the Northern Army had a strong horse, sharp swords, strong armor and defense, sufficient nutritious food and abundant physical strength formed by hard training, showing their advantages. The soldiers' will to fight and their ability to fight exploded. The roaring and rushing torrent of iron hooves is like a landslide and tsunami, invincible.
How can a man stop a war horse that runs and rushes with all its might?
Under the resolute and ferocious impact of the cavalry of the Shi Jinbu Army, the Bow Army was killed without the power to fight back, falling to the ground one by one, the horror and trembling behind them, how could there be the confidence and courage to fight before in front of death, they all hugged their heads and ran away, only hating their father and mother for giving birth to two legs less, and they couldn't escape as fast as a beast, and as a result, they impacted the surrounding and rear army formations and caused chaos, and the strict military formations arranged were destroyed at a deep level, and the officers where Ren was so anxious that they went crazy, shouted at the throat, and slashed several people to warn, and they couldn't organize effective resistance, was easily killed by Shi Jin and other fierce men who took advantage of the situation to go deeper.
The attacked Bow Descendant Former Army collapsed and fled, but was blocked by the dense army of teammates around him, and he wished that he could immediately fly away from above with wings and escape from the obstacles of his teammates, but unfortunately he didn't have that ability, and he shouted at his teammates to run away, and his teammates were also blocked, so he couldn't run away, so many people began to swing their knives and slash at the compatriots who obstructed the way, begging for nothing to be open in front of him, so that he could run to the mountains and forests in one breath, run to the city, and in short, run to a safe place to save his life.
Gong Qi is in charge of the Chinese army at the moment.
He couldn't believe that the 60,000 well-equipped army was actually defeated by a few thousand pirates, and he never expected that the army of cronies he had spent countless efforts and money and worked hard to cultivate would be so timid and afraid of death.
In his consternation, he also tried to appease the army and organize a rebellion, but except for some of his close friends, no one cared about his thoughts, and most of them ignored his shouting orders.
Shi Jin killed fiercely in front of him. Gong Qi was furious to see that many of the guards who had been cultivated with a lot of money turned around and ran, not caring about his life or death at all, and he did not have the loyalty and fearlessness of following him to defend him to the death as he had before.
