Chapter 195 Covenant Battle Salt Flat

Hu Yanzhuo raised his hand to stop the guards, and then said sharply: "You don't be a good citizen, but you are willing to degenerate and become a thief, and you are full of nonsense!" I call Yanzhuo to share worries for the king, beg for thieves for the country, and live a bright and upright life, why am I a dog? ”

Xie Bao smiled: "Good people!? I am a good citizen, but the government wants to kill my brothers for a tiger! Are these officials good officials? Who gave them the power to disregard human life? Fortunately, Brother Song sent troops to Dengzhou to save my brothers from prison, otherwise wouldn't there be two more unjust souls in hell? In the bright sky, the officials actually closed their eyes and looked at the good people, treating the people as grass mustard. Let me ask my lord, will the people still have a way to live if they don't resist? You led your troops to kill the people who lived in Liangshanbo for their lives, may I ask your lordship, you are not a dog leg of the imperial court, are you the savior of the people? ”

Hu Yanzhuo was speechless when he asked, and he reluctantly scolded: "What nonsense! Could it be that your rebellion is justified? Tell Ben Shuai, how many soldiers and horses does Liangshanbo have? ”

Xie Bao smiled proudly: "We have millions of troops, and the suffering people of the entire Great Song Dynasty are our team, and the soldiers of Liangshanbo can't be killed!" ”

Hu Yanzhuo understood the life and death of Baoxin, pondered for a moment and said, "What do you mean by the terms of special forces and battalion commander just now?" ”

Xie Bao said contemptuously: "The master will never say half a word to you again, kill the master quickly, and he will be a good man again in twenty years!" ”

Hu Yanzhuo saw that the treasure looked like he was at home, so he surrendered: "If you surrender, I will ensure that you are the commander of the soldiers and horses!" ”

Xie Bao said coldly: "What a big official, the lord is not rare, Liang Shanbo only has heroes who died in battle, and there are no bad breeds who surrendered, don't bother to make any effort, kill the lord quickly!" ”

Hu Yanzhuo also admires the hero, he knows that it is easy to kill Jiebao now, but it is difficult for him to betray the cottage. He waved his hand and asked his subordinates to take Xie Bao down, and then passed Peng Qi and Han Tao to discuss countermeasures together.

Although he lost Xie Bao and broke more than a dozen special forces brothers, leaving a small regret, on the whole, the night attack was quite successful. If the artillery is blown up, one of Hu Yanzhuo's arms will be broken, and when the chain armor horse is destroyed, Hu Yanzhuo's other arm will also be broken, and the defeat of the officers and soldiers will only be a matter of time.

It just so happened that Xu Ning joined the cottage under the persuasion of Lin Chong and Tang Long, and he offered a plan to use a hook and sickle to deal with the chain horses. And he is willing to teach hook and sickle marksmanship, and train a team of hook and sickle marksmanship to deal with Hu Yanzhuo's chain horses.

Song Jiang specially summoned Xu Ning after hearing this, welcomed him to join the cottage, and praised his positive attitude, but expressed his undesirable tactics of hooking and sickling to break the chain of horses. It's not that this method doesn't work, it's that the casualties are too great. Imagine that it is impossible for the chain horse to stop, and the warrior with the hook and sickle must bend down to hook the horse's hooves, and then they will fall down with the chain horse, which is a change of life, not the best way to break the enemy.

Xu Ning was deeply moved by Song Jiang's practice of loving soldiers like sons, and Song Jiang encouraged Xu Ning that heroes always have a place to play, and Liang Shanbo would let talented people show their talents to the fullest, and now he only needs to participate in training seriously.

In the cottage, generals like Xu Ning and others were not assigned positions, and they only participated in the training of ideological instructors every day to learn the discipline of Liang Shanbo.

In fact, the best way to break the chain of horses, Song Jiang already had a ravine in his heart. The latest product of the scientific research institute, the explosive pack, destroyed the artillery of the officers and soldiers with great power, and he wanted to use another new product of the scientific research institute, the mine, to blow up the chain of armored horses. As for the specific strategy to use, it is necessary to discuss with Wu Yong and others, plan and then act.

So a war specifically against the serial horses is quietly planned, and it won't be long before the serial armored horses are used to level Liangshanbo, which will become the biggest joke Hu Yanzhuo said.

After reading the challenge, Hu Yanzhuo was overjoyed, and was worried about how to fight the thief to the death without a ship, but when he had no clue, the thief took the initiative to send the challenge book to fight to the death on the salt-alkali beach. This is a good opportunity to eliminate the main force of the thieves, and it seems that the thieves will not be able to consume it, and it is necessary to use gambling warfare to solve the current dilemma.

With a stroke of his pen, he accepted the challenge, and three days later fought a decisive battle on the salt flats.

Whether this is a conspiracy of thieves or not, this is definitely an opportunity to suppress the army of bandits. Although the pioneer Xu Ning was captured in Qingzhou and the whole army was wiped out, and although the artillery was blown up by night attacks, there are still more than 20,000 people in the current bandit army, and they are all elites everywhere, and they still have the ability to fight with all their might. If you don't accept the challenge of the thieves, the army is stationed here, and you are often harassed by the thieves, it will become the second Uncle Zhang.

After the Liangshanbo messenger left, Hu Yanzhuo led his people to the salt-alkali flat to see the terrain, where the terrain was flat and there was no way to ambush at all. It's easy

Because it is saline-alkali land, the ground is full of dwarf gray-green quinoa, pennywort, and other saline-alkali plants. This kind of terrain is suitable for the battle of large armies, especially the chain armored horses, two rows of sixty horses rushing out at the same time, and most of the battlefield is included. And because of the dwarf plants, the war horses will not produce a lot of dust when they gallop, and they will not block the sight of the teams in front and behind, so it is indeed a good place for a decisive battle.

It seems that the terrain is more favorable to the bandit army, are the Liangshan thieves fainting and looking for a place that is unfavorable to them to fight? And they discarded the tactics of harassment and ambush, which they had already used to familiarize?

However, if you don't seize the opportunity, you will regret it if you lose it, and Hu Yanzhuo, who is in doubt, discusses specific countermeasures with Peng Qi and Han Tao, and decides that no matter what kind of tricks the thieves use, they will respond to all changes with the same. All the 3,000 chain armor horses were dispatched, even if the thieves were powerful with crossbows and grenades, even if all the 3,000 chain armor horses were put in, they would have to disperse the enemy formation.

Then Peng Qi and Han Tao each led 3,000 cavalry to attack the left and right flanks of the thieves, followed by 5,000 infantry behind the chain of armored horses, and rushed into the enemy formation with the residual power of the chain horses. Hu Yanzhuo sat in the middle army, led the rest of the cavalry and infantry, ready to support the weak at any time, and strive for a reward for the thieves to be disabled, and there will be no future.

Three days later, the two armies faced each other on the salt flats.

Hu Yanzhuo saw that the thieves had built five low mounds with earth barriers on the salt-alkali flat, and inserted horses on them, each of which was about ten steps apart. Hu Yanzhuo sneered, it's really naΓ―ve, trying to use this thing to block the serial armored horse, there are really stupid people in the world who use their mantis arms as a car.

Hu Yanzhuo saw that the left and right flanks of the other party were also protected by cavalry, and a large number of infantry was deployed in the middle, and several rows of hard crossbows were placed in front of the infantry. It is a joke to use such a formation to resist the chain horses, which are the natural enemies of the infantry. No matter how powerful your crossbow is, my men and horses are wearing three layers of armor, plus rushing and killing at the cost of their lives, and when you come to you, the infantry will be slaughtered. When their own infantry rushed after the chain of horses, there were only some dying wounded soldiers left, and they were still! I really don't know how Song Jiang could rule out such a strange formation, what is the difference between this and sending him to death! Could it be that he thinks that he is powerful with a hard crossbow and firearms, and he can eat my chain horse in a few hundred steps?

"Report to General Huyan, General Han on the right wing is ready, just waiting for the general's order! Please give the general the order! ”

"Tell General Han that when all the horses rush over, look at the command flag of our army, and rush to the left flank of the thief, even if they are all killed, they must not take half a step back, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

"Order!"

"Report to General Huyan, General Peng on the left wing is ready, just waiting for the general's order! Please, the general decides! ”

"Tell General Peng, wait for all the chain horses to rush over, look at our military order flag, and rush to the right flank of the thief, even if all of them are killed, they must not take half a step back, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

"Order!"

"General Huyan, the last three thousand serial horses are all ready, please give the general an order!"

"Thirty horses are connected together as a company, a row of two companies, each row is ten paces apart, and they will listen to my orders and go straight to the thief infantry formation!"

"The last general obeys!"

In any case, the arrow is already on the string, and life and death are fought here.

Hu Yanzhuo shouted loudly: "Soldiers! Make meritorious contributions, and seal your wife and son today! Rush over and kill all the thieves and seize your chance to soar! Warriors of the chain of horses, rush! ”

The chain of horses is like a flood that has fallen on the embankment, surging and surging for thousands of miles.

Compared with the excitement of the officers and soldiers, the Liangshanbo army was calm like a spectator, they quietly watched the chain of horses rushing over, without the slightest nervousness and uneasiness, as if the snowflakes flying in the twilight spring were rushing over, and they melted immediately when they landed.
