Chapter 946: Plan and Move

Since Zaidanshui was defeated by Su Wang's army, Feng's army was split into two and split into two armies. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

One of them is the infantry of the Feng Ying Army in Xincun in the "Battle of Danshui", the infantry and crossbowmen are mixed, there are still about 13,400, and the other is the 7,000 Han cavalry.

These 7,000 Han cavalry, led by Fei Yang, a general under Feng Ying, joined the team that harassed the Suwang army, and this cavalry and the 15,000 cavalry of the Storm Kite Army were distributed around Hyun's city, waiting for an opportunity to attack the small forces of the Suwang army that left the city or left the city.

For example, the soldiers of King Su who have to go to Danshui from time to time to get water, or the soldiers of King Su who go out to patrol and monitor the Quartet.

There is no way, there is no cavalry, it means the loss of the field, even if the sergeant of King Su who went out on patrol clearly saw the traces of Korean cavalry in the distance, there was nothing he could do.

If there are many people on his side, the Han cavalry will turn around and leave after harassing them with bows and crossbows, and the soldiers of the Su Wang Army will not be able to catch up with those Han cavalry with only two legs; But if their own forces are not superior, then the situation is even worse, and those Han cavalry will pounce on them like wolves that smell blood, and swallow this Wei soldier in one bite.

I have to say that Su Wangjun lost a lot of soldiers in this regard.

You must know that since the Su Wang army marched all the way, in the three battles of "Battle of Pigao Pass", "Battle of Hyun City", and "Battle of Danshui", they have not lost too many troops, especially the last two battles, which can be said to be one-sided and crushed.

However, in the confrontation in the field, the Su Wang army suffered a big loss, which was the result of no cavalry support.

Some people may say that the heavy cavalry of the traveling horse is not a light cavalry when it takes off its heavy armor?

This is true, but the question is, how can the heavily armored horse army defeat the Korean cavalry, which is more than four times larger?

You must know that the Youma Army is actually just a new army that has not been trained for a long time, don't look at its ability to dominate the battlefield again and again, it is all because of that set of thick and heavy armor.

Without this armor, what would the Horse Warriors do to fight with the experienced Korean cavalry?

Therefore, it is very unwise to let the "Horse Cavalry take off its heavy armor and convert it into light cavalry", because without the heavy armor, even if it faces the Korean cavalry with the same strength, it is difficult to guarantee victory, let alone face more than four times the Korean cavalry.

As for the cavalry of more than 2,000 people newly formed by the Yanling Army, this is a cavalry composed of the infantry infantry in the heavy armor of the Yanling Army, and the heavy armor of the infantry can protect these recruits who have just been transformed into cavalry, so that they can gain some advantages in equipment when hedging with the two armies of the Korean cavalry, but in terms of tactics, the Korean cavalry may have a hundred ways to kill this new Wei cavalry.

It is precisely because of these points that Su Wangjun has always been at a disadvantage in the field confrontation, which made Zhao Hongrun regret it very much for a while, regretting why he did not summon the cavalry of northern Sichuan.

If there were 10,000 cavalry from northern Sichuan by his side, how could Zhao Hongrun tolerate the Korean cavalry so unscrupulously marching through this land, coming and going freely under the noses of the Wei army?

But having said that, Zhao Hongrun couldn't help it at that time, after all, it was considering that the Qin State might not die and form an army to attack Hedong County and Sanchuan County again, so Zhao Hongrun deployed the northern Sichuan cavalry in the Sichuan area, so that when the Qin army attacked again, he would send troops to stop it in time.

Perhaps Zhao Hongrun was worried and thinking too much, he always felt that the relationship between the Wuxu Royal Court and the "Qiang Tribe" and the "Antelope Tribe" in Sanchuan County and the Qin State was somewhat ambiguous, although these three were forced by his intimidation at that time, and jointly sent troops, which contributed to the fact that "200,000 Qin troops died in Sanchuan County".

As for another reason, that is, Zhao Hongrun plans to introduce the new type of cavalry "heavy cavalry" to the Koreans, and he hopes that South Korea will spend huge manpower and material resources to build the domestic cavalry into heavy cavalry after seeing the domineering of the heavy cavalry.

Based on this ulterior purpose, how could Zhao Hongrun let the cavalry of northern Sichuan come to steal the limelight with the heavy cavalry? In case the Koreans resolutely embarked on the development path of "light cavalry" after seeing the combat effectiveness of the cavalry in northern Sichuan, then Zhao Hongrun's strategic plan of "touting heavy cavalry" would be completely in vain.

Therefore, the current situation is also caused by Zhao Hongrun himself, and he can't complain about others.

The addition of 7,000 cavalry led by Fei Yang, a cavalry general under Feng Ying, made the harassment of the cavalry of the Storm Kite Army on the Su Wang Army stronger, and made the Wei soldiers sent by the Su Wang Army to patrol the field feel more pressure, and once soared from the previous 100-man team to a 1,000-strong army.

Because the hundred-man team could not stop the harassment of the Korean cavalry: a hundred Wei soldiers encountered the same number of Korean cavalry in the field, and if the former were far away from the main camp, they would definitely die, and almost no survivors would return to the barracks.

But if the thousand-man team encounters the wandering Korean cavalry, then there is a certain chance of survival, even if the Korean cavalry swarms like a pack of wolves that smell blood, as long as the number of people does not exceed 1,000, this thousand-man team of Suwang soldiers still has a certain chance of survival. Taking a step back, even if he loses to Han Qi in the end, he can bite off a piece of meat from these Han Qi.

And the facts also proved that after the number of Wei troops sent out to patrol soared to 1,000 people, Han Qi no longer chose to charge, at most he shot a few arrows in the distance, and if there was no chance, they would eventually choose to leave.

It's no wonder, after all, cavalry and infantry are not equivalent, and the Korean cavalry doesn't want to exchange their lives for the lives of the Wei infantry - in the "Battle of Hyun City" has fully proved that the Wei heavy infantry in the formation state is quite amazing, maybe a hundred Wei soldiers can't resist the charge of a hundred Korean cavalry, but a thousand Wei soldiers may be able to block a thousand Korean cavalry, and with the help of crossbowmen, cause casualties to the Korean cavalry.

As a result, in recent days, the patrol teams sent out by the Su Wangjun army are often based on thousand-person teams, and sometimes even two thousand-person teams are sent one after another to echo each other.

Such a response made it more and more difficult for the Korean cavalry to hunt down the lone Wei army.

On October 27, Feng Ying made contact with Storm Kite, and the two met in a forest downstream of Danshui.

When he arrived at the agreed place, Feng Ying found that there were only the violent kites and their guards, but there was no trace of Jin Di, and he was a little puzzled in his heart, and asked, "Where is Jin Di?" ”

"I don't know." Storm Kite shook his head and said: "Two days ago, the rest of Jin Huang's troops were also deployed in the narrow road leading to Mengmen Pass in Hyun City, and they were ambushed in that mountain forest for two days and two nights...... In vain. ”

Hearing this, Feng Ying laughed dumbly.

You must know that in the weather of recent days, it is not easy to ambush in the mountains and forests for two days and two nights, after all, the temperature at night in the basin area is very different from the daytime.

"Jin Di, this is going to work hard." Feng Ying shook his head, and then smiled with relief: "It's no wonder, Pi Gaoguan and Hyun City, he suffered two defeats in succession at the hands of that Wei Gongzirun, and I think he can't wait to save some face......

"Defeat...... Is it? The storm kite smacked his lips, and then said with a smile: "I heard that you have seen the horror of the 'Shangshui Traveling Horse' in Danshui?" ”

Hearing this, a trace of unhappiness flashed on Feng Ying's face, and after glancing at the violent kite, he said a little sullenly: "Ah, unexpected...... In front of that thick-armored Wei cavalry, the infantry was simply powerless, but in the blink of an eye, the entire defense line was torn apart, and I still have palpitations in my heart when I think about it at this moment...... However, the stamina of this Wei rider is a bit of a problem. ”

Hearing this, the tyrannical kite said disapprehantly: "Men and horses are all wearing thick armor that is invulnerable, how can the horsepower last?" But...... I don't know if you have seen the tactics of the Wei army, the traveling horse Wei cavalry, almost all of them were dispatched with the infantry, when the traveling horse Wei cavalry could not run and fell into a heavy siege, the infantry of the Wei army inserted in time to support this cavalry...... That's a brilliant idea. ”

"......" Feng Ying glanced at the violent kite in surprise.

may have guessed Feng Ting's thoughts, and said with a smile: "It's not that I have the ambition of others to destroy my prestige, I just think that the Wei Horse of Shangshui Youma is quite good." …… You have also seen the unhindered domineering of this Wei cavalry on the battlefield. ”

Feng Ying nodded slowly, frowned and asked, "Do you want to follow the example of Shang Shui Youma and also prepare for such a cavalry?" …… Picking up people's teeth and wisdom is such a thing, tsk. ”

"So what?" Storm Kite smiled and said, "Didn't Wei also follow the example of our cavalry and privately build the Dangjun Traveling Horse?" …… There is no shortage of war horses in our Korea, and Wei Gongzi Run can prepare for 5,000 heavy armored cavalry, and I can build 50,000 cavalry. Speaking of this, his face showed a little fascination, and he muttered: "Just imagine, if 50,000 cavalry like this are sent to the Northern Plains...... The "Shanrong" and "Donghu" outside the Beiyan, the "Linhu" outside the Shanggu, the "Darong", "Xiaorong" and "Beidi" outside the Yanmen, why is this Wairong afraid? ”

As she said this, Storm Kite narrowed her eyes, and a gleam flashed in her eyes.

It is undeniable that he has selfish intentions.

You must know that although South Korea is strong, the external threat it has received is far greater than that of Wei, which used to have only one Sichuan Rong of Sanchuan at most, but what about South Korea, the northern plateau is full of coveted Korea's rich Wairong, because of this, the three of the ten heroes of the North Plains who are good at fighting have always been in Yanmen, Shanggu, and Beiyan to ensure that Wairong cannot threaten South Korea.

If you follow the example of Wei's heavy cavalry, Korea will also form a heavy cavalry, and the violent kite thinks that it can severely damage the northern Wairong, and once these Wairong are hit hard, the two Beiyuan Ten Heroes who are loyal to Han Wangran, "Yanmen Shou" and "Shanggu Shou", will be liberated, and at that time, even if it is "Hou Han Wu", there is no reason to forcibly let these two garrison in the northern frontier of Korea.

And if the two Beiyuan Ten Heroes, "Yanmen Shou" and "Shanggu Shou", returned to Handan, Storm Kite would never believe that anyone else would be able to shake the status of the lord Han Wangran to whom he was allegiated.

Obviously, Feng Ying also guessed the intention of the storm kite, and immediately turned the topic back to the topic: "If you want to follow the example of Shang Shui Youma to form such a cavalry, the cost is not small...... Let's not talk about this first, is there any movement on that Wei Gongzirun's side? ”

"No movement." The storm kite shook his head and said: "In recent days, the Wei army has been harassed by the cavalry of your and our armies very much, and it is a thousand-strong team of people when it is dispatched, and the sorties are frequent, and I don't know if it intends to compete with our cavalry for the field. ”

"Fighting the field with infantry and cavalry?" Feng Ying shook his head with a smile, indicating that Wei Jun was thinking a little too much.

But after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong: "It's not right...... It's almost November, that Wei Gongzirun, could it be that he plans to trap this area? Can...... But he has no grain and grass, can the 100,000 Wei army drink the northwest wind? ”

"I can't figure it out either." Hearing this, the violent kite said with emotion: "According to common sense, Wei Gongzi will either fight the high wolf or Mengmen Pass, in comparison, I still think that he is more likely to attack the high wolf." …… I thought that he would choose to withdraw his troops after leading his army to level your Danshui camp, but I didn't expect that he would not move...... Could it be that he plans to use those civilians in Hyun City as military rations? It's a bit ......."

"That's not going to happen." Feng Ying shook his head and said, "The Wei army under Wei Gongzi Run's command has strict military discipline, and I have never heard of them robbing our civilians along the way...... I suspect he might have some kind of trickery. ”

"All the actions of the Wei army are under the supervision of the cavalry under your command and me, I don't believe that he has any way to sneak attack the high wolf under the noses of you and me." Storm Kite said with a smile.

"That's right." Feng Ying smiled and nodded.

The two laughed for a while, and for some reason, the smiles on their faces were slowly put away, replaced by solemn looks.

After being silent for a long time, the storm kite licked his lips and suddenly asked, "The thousand-man scouts sent by the Wei army ...... Did you say they were back in Hyun City? ”

"It seems that there is no such report......" Feng Ying swallowed his saliva and replied.

After staring at each other for a while, Storm Kite and Feng Ying looked at each other speechlessly.

"It's broken!"
