Chapter 303: Psychic Warfare
The effect of the psychological attack was less than a day, and the defenders of the city, who seemed to be united, became disheartened and distrustful, and the defenders at the head of the city were shrouded in mutual distrust.
Wang Zhanpeng and the demolition team of the engineer battalion were carefully observing the route approaching the city gate hole, and Huang Kezao and more than a dozen officials had already observed several positions where the engineer battalion was preparing to build a pontoon bridge.
Song Pengfei personally led the 301st level shooters to participate in the formulation of tomorrow's strong attack plan, and more than 100 of the selected 301st level shooters were already equipped with mini guns.
Everything is ready, just waiting for the arrival of tomorrow's attack, Huang Han personally rode around Fuzhou City a few times, and he also had some itchy hands.
During this time, he practiced shooting the Minny gun as long as he was free, because he had the foundation of using air guns for more than ten years in his previous life, and his shooting results have long exceeded the standard of the first-class shooter of the "Red Banner Army", but the loading speed is not satisfactory.
That's because Huang Han has too many things, there is really no need to practice hard loading, and when practicing shooting, Gu Rushan, Shen Ming, Peng Huaiyi, and Yu Fei, the four thirteen-year-old children, do it for them.
Estimated at the reload speed of the competition, these four children should be at the top of the competition, and they should also be able to meet the first-class marksman standard in the shooting test.
However, Huang Han had already made a hard and fast rule that children under the age of fourteen could not participate in the battle, so although the four children were each issued with flintlock pistols and fiddled with five mini guns all day, they would not have the opportunity to go into battle to kill the enemy this year.
In the afternoon, Hanzi, Yang Danian and other cavalry generals took the lead in doing their work.
Sang Yu, who has become a real official of 100 households, has the title of trying a thousand households from the five grades, and what he is most willing to do since he got the clairvoyant mirror is to come to a high place and use the clairvoyant mirror to overlook the magnificent rivers and mountains of the Ming Dynasty.
He was not seasick at all, and he had always been enthusiastic in admiring the magnificent sea with a clairvoyant mirror when sailing, and today he finally got the opportunity to observe the enemy situation with a clairvoyant mirror.
On the northern official road where Sang Yu was in charge of guarding, there was a group of Jiannu cavalry with more than 300 people, which should be a patchwork of two Niu Lu.
The Jiannu were cautious, kept jogging all the time, rode ten miles forward with three or four sentry calls, and stopped when there was a disturbance, and they didn't dare to move forward without understanding the situation.
It's a pity that they are so careful and it doesn't help, because the cavalry technology of the "Red Banner Army" has been upgraded, and they have a long-distance observation artifact of clairvoyance.
Jiannu's every move was really seen by Sang Yu, who was hidden on a small hill and observed, and he scolded with a smile while watching: "Stupid! is still walking and stopping, but I don't know that Lao Tzu has been staring at you turtles and grandchildren for a long time. ”
Cheng Yunlai, He Liang, Qiao Dashan, and several officials and scouts under Sang Yu were also observing the enemy's situation, and they were overjoyed to see that Jiannu didn't realize that his every move had fallen into the eyes of the Ming army.
Qiao Dashan said with a smile: "My lord, it feels good to have a clairvoyant mirror, as long as we are not careless, I am afraid that only we will have the opportunity to calculate and build slaves in the future, and being ambushed by the enemy can basically be ruled out." ”
Sang Yu quipped: "Mr. Qiao, this official knows that you are the most careful in what you do, and no one can surround you without a clairvoyant mirror." ”
"The teacher often talks about the trickery of the soldiers, so he can show that he can't, lure them with profit, and take them from chaos, let's surround and annihilate them today!"
Sang Yu said: "Slow, the soldier's trickery seems to be the art of war of the sages, right?" I don't read much, don't fool me. ”
"I don't know what sages are in my humble position, I only know that my teacher's words are reasonable. The teacher asked us to be more careful when we were fighting, so that we would not suffer. ”
Sang Yu said confidently: "How can we suffer, we will take advantage of those Jiannu today." ”
After observing for a while, confirming that Jiannu would slowly approach, Sang Yu immediately decided to mobilize the cavalry of the nearby "Red Banner Army" in a movement mode to spread a large net to surround and stretch the team for ten miles to more than 300 Jiannu.
The cavalry battalion commander Hanzi immediately agreed to Sang Yu's plan when he got the report, and he personally led more than 1,000 cavalry to the north immediately.
Yan Congyou saluted with one hand on the horse and said: "General Yang, the teacher asked the humble post to pass the word, and strive to catch some live ones without increasing the casualties of our army. ”
Han Zi smiled and asked: "Brother Han has always beaten Jiannu to death, why did he change sex today?" ”
"There is a battle going on outside the city of Fuzhou, you will definitely be able to ambush Jiannu, and taking the head of Jiannu that has just been cut off to show off in Fuzhou will induce more Han people to choose to rebel, if you can capture some captives and take them to the city to walk their dogs, this will hit the morale of Jiannu even more."
He Yongqing interjected: "The infantry battalion commander Lord Song seems to have some clever plan, he needs some prisoners to use. ”
"It turns out that Xiao Song has a ghost idea again! No problem, in any war, there will be a Jiannu who has fallen off the horse and not died, so let's just take it easy when we mend the sword. You go back and report to the commander, and Yang Dalang promises to capture the prisoner. ”
Yan Congyou smiled and said, "General Yang, the teacher didn't order us to go back immediately after passing the order, let's follow you to capture the prisoners." ”
Hanzi wondered: "You are not doing your job, what will the Lord do if you can't find you if you have something to order?" ”
He Yongqing said: "The reason why the teacher sent the four of us to give the order is probably to deliberately let a few of our brothers ride horses to kill them, otherwise such a trivial matter as the order would be guilty of letting the four of us come?" ”
"Also, it sounds reasonable, you think it's okay, of course the official doesn't object, Brother Han, if there is something left to you to do, you can't find a figure to blame, don't do the official's business."
Yan Congyou hurriedly said: "No, no, now there are four more children around the teacher, all of them are clever ghosts, and doing things like running errands are much more profitable than our four brothers." ”
Seeing that Jiannu had fallen into the encirclement, Hanzi stopped talking nonsense, brandished a long-handled battle axe and shouted: "Brothers, the opportunity to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions has come again, rush with this official!" ”
Yan Congyou and He Yongqing were all riding Arab war horses, and they immediately slammed their horses' bellies and rushed forward with loud shouts.
The cavalry's tactics of encircling and annihilating in a movement mode were very successful, and at the cost of more than 40 casualties on their side, they defeated more than 350 Jiannu men and horses, leaving more than half of them, and finally obtained 210 ranks and captured 27 people.
It was not that the cavalry of the "Red Banner Army" did not do it thoroughly enough to cause about 30% of the Jiannu to run away, but that it was too difficult to encircle and annihilate the cavalry on the vast battlefield, and it was really good to be able to annihilate more than half of them.
