Chapter 7: Easy wins
"No need, attack directly head-on, tell Gan Ning, and the soldiers in the front, once the war starts, don't take care of the rear, Captain Pontus is not so vulnerable!" On the battlefield, I am most afraid of looking ahead and looking back, with yesterday's lesson, if Liu Cong doesn't explain it to them, I'm really worried that Gan Ning, Wei Yan and others won't be able to let go.
"Yes!" Although Wei Yan agreed, he still muttered in his heart, thinking that if you hadn't fallen from your horse weakly before, I would have been afraid that you would have returned to the city. But it was always due to Liu Cong's status as the top boss and second son, and Liu Cong's performance in the camp alone against Gan Ning earlier, Wei Yan did not refute it.
When Wei Yan returned to the front and gave the military order, Gan Ning couldn't wait to lead the soldiers to rush to the enemy camp. Wei Yan was not to be outdone.
Soon the two armies came into contact.
Some radicals believe that the soldiers under Liu Biao and Wu Ju in Xiangyang are now vulnerable, and in yesterday's battle, the ambush was successful, the enemy suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and the mountain bandits only lost 200 people, giving them reason to feel good. So we should take advantage of yesterday's big victory to take Yiling and even Gangneung in one fell swoop.
There are also a few people who are sober-minded and know that yesterday's confrontation with the Xiangyang soldiers was mainly due to the sudden increase in the number of mountain bandits nearly doubled, and they moved quickly to ambush on Yiling Road after taking Zigui.
They didn't even think that the Lord would run, and they didn't know that Liu Cong fell off his horse in a hurry, and Gan Ning, Wei Yan and others basically didn't dare to fight in order to protect Liu Cong's safety.
Before the results were discussed, Gan Ning and Wei Yan had already entered the camp. The mountain bandits hurriedly came out of the camp to fight, and suddenly there was a great chaos. This time it was Liu Cong who gave them an accident, and these people did not expect that the officers and soldiers would go and return.
Of course, they didn't expect Gan Ning and Wei Yan to be so brave!
Especially Gan Ning, who rode into the enemy formation one by one, slashed left and right, and hundreds of old fritters behind him did not fall one by one.
Wei Yan was calm, although he was also in the lead, but he still didn't look back at Liu Cong's position, for fear that the rear army would lose.
It's just a confrontation, the advantages and disadvantages are rebelled, and the more than 1,000 people of the mountain bandits Xinla are completely recruits, they are simply untrained, and the ambush battle is strong and strong, and in the face of those Jiang * bandits who lick blood on their heads and well-trained Xiangyang elite soldiers, they are so frightened that they have almost no idea of resisting.
Liu Cong saw that the situation was good, and he no longer hesitated, urging him to rush forward into the enemy formation, ready to test his strength. Soon he found out that although this body belonged to the second son in the previous life, his skills were those of the captain in the later life, and they were perfectly combined! No loss! The cooperation with the war horse under the crotch is also becoming more and more proficient.
After knowing his skills, Liu Cong no longer cared about it, and saw that the battlefield was tight, so he went there.
Huang Quan, who was originally standing behind the camp, panicked when he saw Liu Cong rushing into the enemy formation, and hurriedly ordered his infantry to supervise the army in situ and lead his cavalry to follow closely behind Liu Cong.
On the battlefield of more than 3,000 people, Gan Ning and Wei Yan continued to advance like two meat grinders, and occasionally scattered enemy troops tried to escape, and they were immediately surrounded by soldiers who followed.
Originally, Huang Quan and these personal guards cavalry just wanted to protect Liu Cong, and they didn't want Liu Cong to be killed, so they rushed forward, and more than 50 cavalrymen inserted into the enemy camp in an awl formation.
These bandits had seen this kind of formation, let alone the newly pulled up team. With the increase in the number of corpses on the ground, the mountain bandits no longer obeyed the command, but desperately pushed backwards and squeezed to both sides, for fear that they would slow down and be stabbed.
"Those who kneel on the ground and abandon weapons will not be killed!" Liu Cong saw that it was almost over, the enemy was in chaos, and it would collapse immediately.
"Those who kneel on the ground and abandon weapons will not be killed!" As soon as Liu Cong shouted, several mountain bandits close to Liu Cong's side immediately discarded the equipment in their hands and surrendered.
"Those who kneel on the ground and abandon weapons will not be killed!"
"Those who kneel on the ground and abandon weapons will not be killed!"
“……”
The enemy army was extremely fierce, and most of the mountain bandits quickly made a choice, most of them hurriedly threw away their weapons and knelt on the ground to wait for the landing, and some even simply lay on the ground.
Of course, there are also some people who want to run away when they see that the situation is not good, but Gan Ning and Wei Yanna are willing to let go.
In less than half an hour, the battlefield calmed down. To be precise, it's not a close fight, it's a slaughter! Gan Ning's men have once again proved their fierceness and the fragility of the rabble!
"Count the numbers! Each song reports casualties! Liu Cong rode on the horse and did not get down, and he was in a good mood at the moment.
"Report to Lord Lieutenant, that three hundred and twenty-six of the enemy were killed, five hundred and ten were wounded, and one thousand two hundred and thirty were taken prisoner and wounded. The rest took advantage of the chaos and ran away. Wei Yan replied.
"What about our casualties?"
"Thirty-one were killed and seventy wounded. Most of them were minor injuries. ”
When Liu Cong heard this, the number of casualties was ten to one, and the result was acceptable. It's just that nearly 500 people ran away, which is a bit of a pity.
After a while, Gan Ning also returned to Liu Cong's side, grinning at Liu Cong. Obviously, today's battle was good, and the anger that was teased by the Xiangyang soldiers before was almost out.
"How?"
"Lord Qiyu Duwei, these grandsons ran too fast, obviously some experienced ones, but the ten people led by the general were killed by four of them, according to the captives, they ran away from the three masters and the seven masters, and the rest of the thieves were all killed by General Wei and the soldiers!"
"Well, rest first, give orders to go down and bury the corpses, and send out sentinels to keep an eye on their route!"
"No!" Gan Ning was obviously much easier than before the war, and he was able to find the thief leader in a short period of time and kill him personally, which was definitely not a small credit.
Soon the battlefield was cleaned up, and Huang Quan implemented it again, and the results were basically the same as those reported by the two before. Liu Cong is ready to fulfill his pre-war promise and begin to reward meritorious deeds!
"The one who kills the enemy is out of the ranks!"
Brush, brush, brush......
Liu Cong took a look, good guy, there are almost one hundred and sixty people, Gan Ning's subordinates accounted for forty percent, Wei Yan's subordinates also stood up to thirty percent, and several personal guards also stood up, they were originally pro-soldiers, but Huang Quan gave an order, and these people couldn't help it, after all, the reward for beheading the enemy was too tempting.
"All those who kill the enemy's head are promoted to captains!"
Liu Cong reined in his horse and took a few steps back: "The one who kills the two enemies is out of the ranks!" ”
Immediately another part of the soldiers took two steps forward, but the number was more than half the previous number, only sixty-four, and it seemed that it would not be easy to cut off the enemy's head or kill him with a single sword, despite the obvious advantage. The composition of the list is still about the same as before.
"The one who kills the three enemies will be listed!"
Twenty-seven people took two steps forward proudly, Liu Cong had promised before, those who cut the three heads of the enemy would be promoted to captain, and those who were previously captains could be promoted to tun commanders again. However, of these twenty-seven people, four Qu Junhou occupy four places, and the personal guard cavalry occupies one, it is estimated that this guy is too lucky, and he can choose a big advantage when he joins the war later.
"Those who kill the enemy's five heads are out of the ranks!"
This time, the number of people was even smaller, and only Gan Ning and Wei Yan were left among the four Qu Junhous. But the soldiers were almost all Gan Ning's subordinates. There are fourteen people in total, and nine of them are Gan Ning's subordinates.
Liu Cong motioned for Gan Ning and Wei Yan to come out first, then jumped off the horse, walked around the thirteen soldiers twice, and slowly swept over everyone, most of them were in their thirties, many of them had scars on their faces, and only six people were wearing leather armor, these six people should have been captains or above.
"Report your number of enemies!"
These are the heroes of heroes, and the treatment is naturally different! They enjoy the right to receive applause alone, just like in the football field of the future, where the manager often replaces players who scored a hat-trick, played exceptionally well, or reversed the score to the applause of the crowd near the end of the game.
These people can also stand the applause of the whole battalion.
"Six!"
"Five!"
"Six"
After every number of "......", there was warm applause under the leadership of Liu Cong.
Fourteen people, ninety-two enemies! The most of them was chopped eight, although there was an element of luck and cheapness in the battle. But that's enough to be proud of the whole camp.
"Everyone is promoted to the head of the tun, and the original chief of the tun will be promoted to another level, and it will be arranged later!"
