Chapter 71: Re-entering the Secret Realm (11)
As night fell, Breeze City fell silent.
The news of the march of the army was divinely spread during the day.
Some people say that they assisted in the attack on the east and west fronts, some people said that they attacked Nanxun, and some people said that they attacked the second-level city of Cen Xi.
For the people who just want to live in peace, the fresh conversation after tea and dinner is the best thing to spend time, and after the night passes, it will be a new day.
In the northern camp of Qingfeng City, Jiang Ge rode on his war horse and watched the five thousand cavalry in front of him, shining with silver light under the moonlight.
Wu Yan took Xiao Hongye's hand and stood aside and looked at Jiang Ge with concern, his big eyes were already full of tears, and he was reluctant.
Jiang Ge turned his head to look at the red leaves full of tears, showed his teeth and smiled slightly, turned the horse's head, clamped the horse between his legs, and after a neigh, the war horse galloped out, followed by Jian Hong, and then five thousand horsemen rushed out from the gate of the camp and rushed north.
In the dark night, in the bright moonlight, a long fire dragon made rapid progress north along the Qingfeng Gorge from the majestic and tall Qingfeng Pass, and the horse's hooves roared in the steep valley.
Just when the iron cavalry continued to leave the camp, two black figures in the ditch in the distance covered each other's mouths excitedly, and the two pairs of eyes full of vicissitudes blinked at each other excitedly, and waited until the sound of the horse's hooves gradually disappeared before the two hands were gently lowered, and then disappeared into the night.
The five thousand cavalry led by Jiang Ge did not go east, but took advantage of the middle of the night to rush north, the movement of the army was really large, and the target was slow and slow. The choice to go north at night was the result of Jiang Ge's careful consideration, and his goal was to make a detour back to the north of Nanxun Pass, and then pinching the time when Chang Feilong's troops arrived at the south of Nanxun Pass, that is, the evening two days later. Feigned reinforcements from north to south to capture Nanxun Pass.
The armor of the demon soldiers left behind in the attack on Qingfeng City has long been repaired and cleaned, with one set for each of the five thousand soldiers and hundreds of battle flags.
To the north from Qingfeng City, you need to cross Qingfeng Gorge, then enter the Lijiang River Plain, and then run to the right along the mountain range in the north of Nanxun for 100 miles, and go south for 300 miles from the hilly area less than 100 miles away from Cen Xi City to reach Nanxun Pass. It is equivalent to drawing a large half circle, the total distance is close to a thousand miles, and the distance from Cen Xi is less than 100 miles, so it is easy to encounter patrolling rangers or troops going south to reinforce them.
In two days, even if it is one person and two horses, it basically has to gallop without stopping. Eating, drinking, and sleeping must be done right away. According to Jiang Ge's chance, he would only rest for a maximum of two hours after entering the Lijiang River Plain by leaning on a hidden mountain forest in the Nanxun Mountains. In addition, there will be no further opportunity to stay on the ground.
Fortunately, one thousand of them were carefully selected guard battalions, as well as elite soldiers selected by Wu Yan layer by layer, if it was a new soldier, such a high-intensity march would collapse directly.
........
Two days later,
The 10,000 cavalry led by Chang Feilong had already entered the Nanxun Plain through the Muzi Gorge, and swept away more than a dozen outposts along the way.
According to the order, Chang Feilong needed to wait until Li Jibu held the entrance to the Muzi Gorge before he could start his journey north to Nanxun Pass. And there are only six hours left.
Chang Feilong, who was riding on a horse, instructed the troops to trim, took out the kettle and drank a few sips, and the burly Chang Feihu walked over and handed over a large cake and said, "Big brother, eat some first, and when Li Ji's people come, let's make another meal." ”
Chang Feilong shook his head, Chang Feiyu next to him took the flatbread and tore half of it and threw it back to Chang Feihu, chewing the flatbread in his mouth and said, "Big brother, how many people are left on this trip?" ”
Chang Feihu took a bite of the pie and said, "It doesn't matter how many people he has left, it's over, what if only we are left?" ”
Chang Feiyu rolled his eyes and said: "It's all like you, we might as well attack the city directly, 10,000 cavalry against 50,000 defenders, can we win?" ”
"Why not? The general wants to give me 10,000 soldiers, and I guarantee that the people I kill will not be ghosts, ghosts, and ghosts. ”
"Blow it to you, when someone else is a watermelon, put there for you to cut?"
Chang Feilong waved his hand and said, "Don't argue, how can you look like a soldier?" If I can attract 10,000 defenders in the city with 10,000 cavalry, we will desperately leave these 10,000 people on the plain outside Nanxun City. If it were only the 20,000 people scattered outside the city, would it be enough to eat? ”
Chang Feihu smiled and said: "It's refreshing to follow the eldest brother, let's 10,000 against 20,000, it's the same as playing." I am afraid that the defenders in the city will not come out, and they will do as much as they want. ”
Chang Feiyu worried: "Since the enemy army has already been prepared, the general only let us be bait on the plains, if we really set up a battle formation to hedge, our 10,000 iron cavalry will not be afraid of the 50,000 enemy troops." I'm afraid that the bait will not be done well, and I will finish eating it for the fish. My heart is always pounding, and I don't feel good. ”
While the three of them were talking, there was a rumbling sound from the direction of Muntjac Gorge, and then the vanguard of two thousand horsemen left Muntjac Gorge and arrived at the range of Chang Feilong's headquarters.
The leader was Li Ji, and after seeing Chang Feilong, he quickly dismounted and said, "Brother Chang, you are really fast enough, my brother is chasing hard." Wait, and in half an hour the army will arrive, and then set up camp to make you a good meal to practice for the heroes. ”
Chang Feilong quickly dismounted and arched his hand: "Trouble Brother Li, the ten thousand horses behind the younger brother may be the last meal, bother Brother Li to prepare better." ”
Listening to what Chang Feilong said, Li Ji felt too good in his heart, he wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say. Chang Feilong, who looked resolute, just nodded heavily, and said, "Brothers, don't worry, although it is not as good as the restaurant in Qingfeng City, the beef and mutton are enough." ”
Li Ji didn't say much, turned around and arranged for people to urge the speed of the rear army, and the rest of the people first circled the favorable terrain and built some simple fortifications.
Chang Feilong looked at the repaired soldiers behind him, his heart was extremely sad, the soldiers trained by one hand, he could name almost every team, and most of the faces were very familiar. They are all sons of ordinary families, but they have to follow themselves to fight to the death, although they are sad in their hearts, but as a professional soldier, Chang Feilong has no choice, only to die on the battlefield is his fate, and the soldiers who follow him will become a hero that everyone can remember.
.......
The 5,000 cavalry led by Jiang Ge had already bypassed the Lijiang Plain and headed south, and soon after they went south, they found that there were reinforcements behind them not far behind. In desperation, Jiang Ge ordered everyone to ambush among the hills and wait for enemy reinforcements to arrive.
Jiang Ge lay on the back of a small hillside, looking north, chewing on the delicate rhizome with a green grass in his mouth, and there was a slight sweetness in his mouth.
Half an hour later, Jiang Ge squinted his eyes and looked at the north, the mighty team looked like there were no less than two thousand horsemen, and two thousand to three thousand soldiers. The distance is less than five miles.
Jiang Ge was a little curious, according to the time, the south had not yet begun to move, at most, it had just arrived at the edge, a hundred miles away from Nanxun.
According to the ability of Li Ji and Chang Longfei, it is impossible for the local outpost camp to light the beacon fire, so as to remind the defenders of Nanxun City and the surrounding areas.
At this time, there were 5,000 troops rushing to the south early in the morning, could there be any changes in the enemy's strength in these two days?
I just went around in a big circle, and I don't know the situation in Nanxun at all, if Nanxun increases his troops, the first thing to know should be Chang Feilong's advance force.
At this time, Jiang Ge was a little worried in his heart, not the five thousand enemy troops in front of him, but whether the real situation in Nanxun would change dramatically.
Jian Hong on the side reminded softly: "General, the enemy army is less than three miles. ”
"Get on your horse and slaughter them all."
Jiang Ge spit out the grass roots in his mouth with a snort, and commanded softly: "When the enemy army enters the encirclement, not a single cavalry is allowed to be spared." ”
Then he gently walked to his war horse, touched the neck of the horse holding it, and said, "Get on the horse." ”
Thousands of soldiers behind Jiang Ge mounted their horses in unison, without a trace of superfluous sound.
"Shoot!"
Everyone took off the hoods of their spears, and the horizontal guns were on their sides.
Everyone held their breath.
After Jiang Ge saw the last column of enemy soldiers running into the encirclement, he waited for a few seconds, looked at the far north, and after making sure that no new reinforcements appeared, Jiang Ge stepped forward with a gun and roared in his throat: "Kill!" ”
The war horses that suddenly appeared on the slopes on both sides of the gallop rushed down like rolling rivers and mountains after a loud order, Jiang Ge took the lead, his spear stabbed flat, and instantly rushed into the demon army formation that was still stunned.
Seeing Jiang Ge's spear pointing, the silver spear head pierced all the obstacles in front of him without hesitation, and the five thousand war horsemen scattered the demon army on the galloping road like a bamboo, killing them in an instant, and there was no organization to resist effectively.
On the contrary, there were enemy troops who took advantage of the chaos to turn around and flee, but since they had already entered the encirclement, the infantry could not run far before they were caught up by the Shence Iron Cavalry, and a shot pierced the chest.
Except for most of the 2,000 cavalry of the enemy's front army, they reacted quickly and were entangled with each other, and only more than a dozen cavalry rushed towards Nanxun Pass after reacting.
It's a pity that under Jian Hong's lightning-fast pursuit, only the headless demon soldiers were left on the war horse that had just accelerated, and Jian Hong blocked the middle of the gallop with one person and one sword, and no one escaped from him.
A quarter of an hour later, the battlefield was covered with the corpses of demon soldiers. The casualties of the Shence Army were very small, and the seriously wounded dozen people quickly stopped the bleeding with the help of their comrades, and then lay on their horses and tied them with ropes.
Under Jiang Ge's command, everyone changed into the equipment of the demon soldiers, and the flags and war horses were all used.
After the costume was completed, the 5,000 horsemen flew south, and before sunset, they had to arrive at Nanxun Pass.
......
The 10,000 men led by Jiang Yibai can be said to be the most idle, because they are not in a hurry, have no blocking mission, and do not have to cross the mountains and mountains through the enemy-occupied areas. You only need to retreat south from Qingfeng City to the uninhabited area, and then march northeast from the mountain road in the southern mountains of Nanxun, and guard between Nanxun and Cangshan City.
As soon as he retreated to the edge of the no-man's land and headed to the east, Jiang Yibai encountered a large number of troops holding the Hazi battle flag from the direction of the Great Wall through the isolation area and marching in the direction of Cangshan.
It was not fortunate that he met Harilang, who was also a gentleman in the past, and Harilang, who was responsible for the transfer of reinforcements, had been guarding the quarantine area and the edge of the mountainous area, taking over the troops sent by the Ha family from the Great Wall. On that day, when he was going through the formalities, someone reported that a troop with the banner of the Shence Army and the Jiang character appeared in the west, heading towards the place where he was.
As soon as he heard that it was the Shence Army, Harilang was also not curious, the Shence Army was rumored to be miraculous, and if he could see it with his own eyes, of course he had to study it.
The First Clan
Unexpectedly, I met Jiang Yibai, the hearty Ha Rilang was very happy to meet his former wine and meat friends, and Jiang Yibai was also very happy to meet the former second young master of the Ha family.
Neither of them was in a hurry, so they sat on a stone and pulled up the home. Jiang Yibai also ordered the troops to repair in situ.
Harilang looked at the radiant Jiang Yibai with some envy and said: "This Shence army is powerful, it's only been less than a year, I'll take a look, tsk, the regimental commander." The guy who shot the bird with a slingshot has become a general.
”
Jiang Yibai smiled: "Brother Ha, don't laugh, brother, I bought it in exchange for my life." How is Big Brother Ha doing now, he looks pretty good? ”
Harilang smiled awkwardly and said, "Where's the good?" Do logistics here, eat and wait for death, how can you be majestic? ”
Jiang Yibai said with some pride: "It seems that the bigwigs of the Ha family are reluctant to fight for their lives with you, the second son, I can't do it, the Jiang family is dispensable, and no one is sorry to die outside." ”
Harilang said with a sad face: "Don't say that, now it is said that the Jiang family has a promising offspring, and the old man has muttered many times. It turned out that it was you, I thought it was your family with three guys. ”
Jiang Yibai complained a little: "How can you compare with them, there are so many industries in the family, you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and you don't have to learn from me to fight for your life." Brother Ha doesn't have to worry about the future. Hahaha. ”
"You are laughing at my brother and me, my brother wants to learn from you to fight for fame, and it will have weight in the future at home. Learning from the eldest brother to do business and engage in those things is really not interesting at all. Do you still need people for the Divine Army? One punch can kill a bear. Harrilang gestured the muscles in his hand and said expectantly.
"There is a shortage of people, but you are a member of the Ha family's army, so it is interesting to run our Shence army? At that time, your family will say that you are a traitor, and besides, when you arrived in the Shence Army, you also started from the team, did you do it? Jiang Yibai pursed his lips after speaking, he didn't believe that the second son of the Ha family could really go into battle to kill the enemy, and he could start from the team. The world-famous Ha Jiajun didn't stay, and he really ran to the Shence Army to fail, and he wouldn't believe it if he killed Jiang Yibai.
"Hey~ It's not that my brother doesn't dare, but I can't accept the reputation of this traitor, forget it. Your general is about the same age as us, is he really that tiger? ”
"Let's put it this way, I don't know if it's a tiger or not, ten of you can't beat our general's hand." Seeing that Harilang was instigated, Jiang Yibai looked down even more, and lost interest in continuing to chat. After a few hasty words, he continued to pull.
.........
Muntjac Gorge Mouth.
Chang Feilong, who was well-fed and drunk, replenished his supplies, and they were all resting well, all of them were in good spirits and full of energy.
Chang Feilong thanked Li Ji and walked to the front of the formation, shouting: "Get on the horse!" ”
The sound of horses on board rang out in the makeshift camp.
"Get out!"
Li Ji stood on the built watchtower and looked at the 10,000 cavalry soldiers who set off one after another, silently thinking in his heart that he would return safely.
I don't know which recruit couldn't help but shout; "The brothers have won the battle and returned safely."
The temporary camp suddenly fell silent, and after three seconds of silence, more than 10,000 people shouted in unison: "Brothers, you will return safely." ”
Li Ji did not stop this sincere blessing and expectation from the hearts of the soldiers, and even looked at the Wanyu Iron Cavalry who was leaving quickly with moist eyes, and followed the silent recitation in his heart: "Brothers, win the flag, return safely as soon as possible." ”
After sending Chang Feilong's iron horse, Li Ji immediately summoned his generals, his task was not as good as Chang Feilong's department, but it was also related to whether Nanxun City could be captured. Because his 10,000 soldiers will come behind 20,000 auxiliary soldiers one after another, and these 30,000 people must complete the manufacture of siege equipment within two days, and then advance to Nanxun City according to the information of Chang Feilong's department.
And Jiang Yibai's department will become the last straw that overwhelms the defense of Nanxun City.
All this seems to be the most stressful of Chang Feilong's department, in fact, the five thousand cavalry led by Jiang Ge is the most dangerous, and the situation in the north of Nanxun Pass cannot be mastered at all, once it reaches behind the enemy, it will fall into a situation of heavy encirclement and death.
As long as the 5,000 cavalry led by Jiang Ge can quickly pass through the enemy-occupied area, go south and find a way to capture Nanxun Pass. can form the form of closing the door and beating the dog, and Jiang Ge's department may withstand the most violent north-south attack.
Li Jibu will become the backbone of the siege, and Chang Feilong's department will be the bait and the vanguard of sweeping away the enemy forces outside Nanxun City.
In addition to defending against the eastern aid of Nanxun City, Jiang Yibai's department was the sharpest blade at the last moment when the two sides were deadlocked.
According to Jiang Ge's plan, he cleared the obstacles in the south of Nanxun Pass, and tried to lure the enemy troops in Nanxun Pass to try to pursue out of the pass, and then Jiang Ge's troops quickly captured Nanxun Pass.
Chang Feilong's troops went south to the Nanxun Plain to clear out the 20,000 enemy troops scattered outside the city. It is better to draw the defenders hiding in the city in pursuit.
Subsequently, Li Jibu marched into Nanxun City to reinforce Chang Feilong's troops, quickly cleared all enemy troops and obstacles outside Nanxun City, and put on a posture of attacking the city.
After getting the news, Jiang Yibai will quickly move westward, and after arriving in Nanxun City, he will cooperate with Li Ji and Chang Feilong to attack Nanxun City.
One defeats it.
However, there was only one point of the many changes that preceded this plan, and the plan collapsed completely, and there was no need to implement it.
For example, Jiang Ge's troops were trapped and failed to occupy Nanxun Pass. The 20,000 men stationed outside Nanxun City resisted Chang Feilong's attack. Or the enemy retreats into the city and sticks to Nanxun Pass. Or, there are more than 50,000 defenders in Nanxun City.
No matter which one appears, it will directly cause the miscarriage of Jiang Ge's plan. 30,000 against 50,000 people, in the wilderness, the side with fewer numbers may not lose.
But it is impossible for 50,000 men to capture a city defended by 30,000, unless the defenders are really weak. However, the single combat power of the demon soldiers after the obvious devouring mind is higher than that of the human race.
Not to mention in the case of fewer troops.
When manpower is exhausted.
Everything depends on the will of God.
