Chapter 225: The Cavalry Attack
Almighty Cultivation Supreme
。
In Wei Gui's plan, after the cavalry gave reconnaissance in the early stage, the main thing was to reconnoiter whether there was an ambush.
In the battle of fighting less, ambush warfare and encirclement warfare, this is the easiest to stumble, after all, they are rebels, they do not have the strong cohesion and state of the regular army, even if it is 6000 families, they do not command each other, once they encounter a sudden attack, it is easy to appear in a state of ineffective command, if they want to attack a city with about 5000 forbidden troops, Wei Gui must not even think about it, how far, how far to run, but now, only 800 regiment training, it doesn't matter, Cavalry will do.
This part of the cavalry quickly broke away from the large army and rushed to Miaojiazhuang, without having to fight fiercely with Miaojiazhuang, just holding the main road to prevent escape.
If Wang Xiansong knew Wei Gui's thoughts, he would definitely laugh, it was completely a snake to add, as the core of the Wang family, he knew very well who the target was this time, the complete goal, and even Wei Gui didn't tell him.
It's not because of secrecy or anything like that, it's because it's unnecessary, Wei Gui's mutiny mission, the first task is to kill Zhao Xin, but in fact, whether it's killing Zhao Xin or forcing Zhao Xin away, they have completed the task.
Zhao Xin is not in Baozhou, the whole of northern China is so big, I am afraid it will be difficult for him to have a place, and it will be much easier to deal with him again, not to mention a few golden gun squads, even if they are counted, what is the use, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, under the premise that there is no way to contact a reliable force, the power of the Wang family can be used more unscrupulously.
Yangmou is so terrible, it just makes you know it, but you can't deal with it, which is also what Wang Xiansong has always admired, but unfortunately he doesn't have so much experience and skills, and he can't do it as well as Wang Deyong.
Marching and fighting, Wang Xiansong does not interfere, Wei Gui controls the army, he has rich experience, this is something that Wang Xiansong can't compare, 13,000 troops, even after the division of troops, is still extremely powerful, and the strong mobility of 800 cavalry also makes it impossible for the other party to implement any of its practices.
You must know that the total number of opponents' regimental training is only 800 people, even if it is 800 elite infantry, it will not be able to pay even the 800 cavalry who are only temporarily in battle, as long as the cavalry does not stand with the infantry, then the final winner must be the cavalry.
Besides, even if all the 800 cavalry are exhausted, will it have an impact on Wei Gui, no, not at all, 13,000, 800 less, not to mention a drop in the bucket, it is also a very small part, maybe it will demoralize a little, but it will not be too much, besides, does Miaojiazhuang have the strength to eat 800 cavalry at one time, even if there is, kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800, how much strength do they have left.
The huge sound of horses' hooves, unobstructed, rushed directly towards Miaojiazhuang, they couldn't hide people at all, and they didn't plan to hide people, in their opinion, under the whip of the horses, even if they heard it, they would get at most about a cup of tea preparation time, this time is good for what to do, and it is too late to pack up when they escape.
Zhao Xin is an exception to the exception, such a spiritual sense is very high, and it can be heard at least 15 miles away.
already knew that Wei Gui had already sent troops, of course, it was clear that the sound of these horses' hooves was coming at him, and it was obvious that the other party was preparing to use cavalry.
Zhao Xin immediately told Sun Ji, Sun Ji personally went out to investigate, with his strength, after going out for two or three miles, closing the distance, the method of listening to the sound underground, you can judge that it is at least a large cavalry force of seven or eight hundred people.
What to do, this has become the only thing Sun Ji has to think about, the speed of the cavalry is very fast, and the number of people is also stuck on this number, he has the heart to block it, as a royal weapon, he has such confidence, with this batch of horses under the crotch, plus the moon bow in his hand, facing 800 cavalry, it should not be a problem.
But in the end, Sun Ji didn't make a move, because Zhao Xin seemed to know why he came out, and when he came out, he said such a thing to him, he must come back.
I don't know what Zhao Xin meant, but in the end, Sun Ji still decided to do what Zhao Xin said, they are still more than ten miles away from here, and after informing them, even if they turn back, it will be too late.
The closer distance between the two sides will not respond to him, but will promote his outburst, as long as this group of cavalry is led to other places, if he really does not change direction, his pursuit can also kill the enemy more.
Hearing the arrival of a large force of cavalry, everyone was not surprised, just now, when Zhao Xin said it, they were already mentally prepared, there are cavalry in Baozhou City, but there are not many, are they all sent
The accurate number of 800 moved them, this is a bit much, Baozhou is not the northwest, on that side of the border, a large number of cavalry are needed to fight against the Western Xia, although the threat of the Liao State is greater than that of the Western Xia, but to a certain extent, between the Liao and Song Dynasties, there has been no war for a long time, both sides have hoarded a large number of cities and garrisons, and the role that the cavalry can play in it is getting smaller and smaller, coupled with the transfer of strategic objectives, after the construction of such a series of fortifications in Hebei, there is no ability, In Longxi, the same fortification system as Hebei was built, and the cavalry also wanted to move there, and there were only a few left here.
"Sun Daiyu, I don't think you have to go out!"
"Why" Sun Ji asked a little puzzled, he also thought, after talking to Zhao Xin and them, he immediately went to hunt them, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry was above that of ordinary infantry, which was a huge threat to them.
"What's our next battle?"
"Defend the city!" Sun Ji asked puzzled.
"Isn't that over, defending the city, what's the matter with cavalry!"
"But the cavalry blocked the passage, we can't break through......" Sun Ji blurted out the words, let him take it back by himself, the old face was slightly red, that's right, now, the enemy is outnumbered, from the very beginning, they didn't think about breaking through, if they wanted to leave, they would have left a long time ago, the reason why they stayed was to have deep confidence in the defensive strength of the fortress.
The cavalry is completely useless in the siege operation, unless the cavalry dismounts, and this battle will not last too long, at most a month, Baozhou as an important town in the defense system in the north, once a rebellion occurs, it will not be controlled at all, countless channels will spread the news, this is a provocation to the system, the Wang family can't, and dare not block this matter.
Sun Ji didn't speak, and the others were about the same, 800 cavalry, and they couldn't attack, so let them come over and fight well, if they really had an arrogant impact on the fortress, let them taste the power of the longbow.
Compared with the hoplites who are heavily armored and difficult to attack, they are generally cavalry with leather armor or chain mail, which is easier to deal with, and some ordinary long arrows will do.
Among the fortresses, where they are located, is the most central location, and it is also the center of the entire fortress, which is one of the dividing points between the upper and lower levels, there are 3 layers from the top floor, below, there are 1 layer of guards, there are 50 heavy infantry and Quyang guards, mainly to guard against civil strife, although the prestige of Miaojiazhuang is very high, but on the battlefield, you can't be rash, when you should be prepared, you must also be on guard, otherwise, no matter how powerful the fortress is, there will be times when it is overcome, especially in the interior, the Trojan horse said, That's the story.
This is a relatively wide floor, in addition to the core of this room, is directly connected to the top, interconnected with other departments, and there are several important places, wooden cannon workshop, longbow workshop and bow workshop, as well as blacksmith shop, the war for the loss of various materials, quite terrible, even if there is Zhao Xin's immortal magic as a backing, can manifest all kinds of materials, but can add a little more.
For this, of course, Zhao Xin has no objection, he can manifest, but he needs money, although through the business of steamed bread and soap, he has made enough money, but in the war, this kind of business is cut off, and the manifestation is not infinite, once the consumption reaches a certain level, there will still be problems, so food, some basic materials, and even steel or something, have long been through various channels, a certain amount of reserves, and now, they are all in the production of intense.
In fact, in the fortress, these people are safe, but just trapping them in such a small space, not giving them any work, even if they don't need anything to support, is prone to problems, and everyone must work, only when they work, they will not think cranky.
In ancient military theories, similar things have been told, but only at the military level, not on human nature and thought.
Among the 10,000 people, is under this siege mentality, let everyone work, this is the right choice, Zhao Xin logically, the concept of the essence of the substance, the implementation of the bastion, at this time, looks peaceful, but in fact, the whole bastion is an organic whole, in every room, there are good lamp oil and lamps, day and night are the same, the time that can be worked, much higher than the previous Miaojiazhuang, more people, good efficiency, the production of things, has also risen significantly.
The appearance of horses' hooves surprised everyone, because someone had said before that there was turmoil in Baozhou, and the same was true of the fire that was burning in Baozhou at that time, but they were far away from Baozhou, and it stands to reason that they should not be attacked, but why, it was their turn so soon
The cavalry of the rebels, after the rebels left the city, arrived near Miaojiazhuang for about an hour, and the large army was 2 hours early.
