205 Soldiers behind enemy lines
The moonlit night was dim, and more than thirty miles east of Kaesong, a small team of small scales was quietly moving along a deserted field.
The team marched slowly, like ghosts in the vast wilderness, accompanied by gusts of cold winds, struggling towards an invisible goal.
"Platoon deputy, do you want to let the brothers rest and rest, this ghost weather is too cold!!"
In the procession, the two figures at the end of the queue gasped and talked as they struggled to walk on the unmelted snow.
The captain surnamed Wang of "......" took out a delicate pocket watch from his arms, and looked at it in the dark night before he could see the time on the pocket watch clearly, and then said: "Let the brothers insist on persevering, and the sky will be bright in another hour, and then let everyone find a hidden and sheltered location to camp and repair." ”
"Okay!"
"Brothers, work harder, go another six miles, and we'll rest!!"
can be promoted by Wu Jie to be a Hongtang reconnaissance sentinel, all of them are elites in the team, whether it is physical strength or skills and tactics, they are all first-class experts in Hongtang's team.
When they were trained on Dayuan Island, even if the terrain and climate were complicated, the whale scouts traveled more than 80 miles at night in the dim and dull night, but in fact, in this strange place on the Korean Peninsula, the scouts led by Deputy Platoon Commander Wang did not even finish 40 miles after a few hours of travel tonight!
The climate is so cold that the scouts, who basically can't feel the cold on Dayuan Island, are moving in the Korean Peninsula at this time, and the most uncomfortable thing is that it seems to be unstoppable.
This time, Wang Fei was ordered by Wu Jie to march eastward, and the camera behavior caused turmoil in the ranks of the Qing army, which should not be too difficult in terms of their daily training, but this first step out of the house felt this natural malice.
In order to conceal their whereabouts, Wang Fei and his group of 36 people could only go out day and night, because the invasion of the Qing army made the Koreans have to fortify the wall and clear the wilderness, and there are not many Korean people left in the village.
Before this trip, Wu Jie called Wang Fei in front of him, and said a few important points: the task of their team is not how many enemies they need to kill, but to rely on elite manpower to raid some important strongholds of the Qing army, such as some grain and ordnance transfer stations, and then where the war horse camp is located.
This can be regarded as the establishment of special forces in the style of special warfare in the later generations, and the use of special operations soldiers in the real sense. Although at the beginning of the establishment of the special operations battalion, Li Tianyang had a clear goal for the development direction of the special operations battalion, and Wu Jie led the special operations battalion and the current reconnaissance business to take this goal as the training direction, but in the end, whether the special operations soldiers can achieve the scene that Li Tianyang once depicted in actual combat will have to be tested in this actual battle.
In the actual battle, the previous special operations battalions, and even the current reconnaissance battalions, either completely used force and used far more than ordinary people to force to forcibly take down targets, or they were the eyes and ears of an army, specializing in reconnaissance and infiltration, and they have not yet disrupted an army with a size of tens of thousands of people with a mere number of dozens of people like Wang Fei and others now.
"Boom, boom!"
"Boiling oil ready !!"
"Golden Juice Preparation !!"
After Dolgon divided his troops to attack Kaesong, the main force of the weakened Qing army not only did not weaken the offensive of Namhansan Fortress, but became more ferocious than in the previous ten days, and almost chiseled through several gaps in the walls of Namhansan Fortress.
If it weren't for the desperate obstruction of a group of Korean generals led by Li Shibai's guardian envoy, the dragon flags of the Qing Dynasty would have been planted on the walls of Nanhan Mountain Fortress at this time.
The Korean government finally had to increase its troops on the city wall again after several times the city wall was in a hurry, and the army was gradually weakened.
The city is besieged, where do the troops come from?
Don't forget that in addition to the Korean army and bureaucratic gentry, there was also a large group of Korean people who had moved from Hanyang Fortress to Namhansan Fortress for refuge.
At the moment of life and death, the upper echelons of the Joseon Dynasty no longer cared about the weak health and strength of some of these ordinary people, as long as they could contribute to the defense of the city, then even if the lives of tens of thousands of ordinary people in Yongcheng City were to fill the city, the Korean nobles would not feel distressed at all.
As long as they don't go to war on their own and can save their wealth and wealth, those untouchables will die worthwhile.
Groups of ordinary people who had not received any military training were forced to rush to the city, using their flesh and blood to stop the Qing soldiers who were like fierce tigers and hungry wolves.
"How long can we last with the cold food supply in our hands?"
Huang Taiji focused on the map in front of the case, and after a long time, he rubbed his temples that were a little painful, and then he looked up and asked Fan Wencheng, a scholar of the Inner Secretary Academy who was standing beside him, and hurriedly replied: "Back to Your Majesty, now the grain and grass in our army can last for a month, and the grain and grass raised from Guoshan City, Dingzhou and other cities are also on the way to be transported, which is enough for our army to support more than a month." ”
has not been able to get the news of Geng Zhongming's water master, so that Fan Wencheng, the celebrity around the Qing Emperor Taiji, has to be more cautious, and he seems to be very restrained in his words and actions.
"Hey, there's only two months of grain and grass!"
Huang Taiji was a little distressed, it seemed that in a short period of time, their Qing army had no worries, but in fact, in terms of lost time and strength, their Great Qing Kingdom was already at a loss.
Unless the Korean royal family in front of him is conquered, and the materials are scavenged from it, and the population is captured to fill the gaps in the losses, then Huang Taiji will start the plan of the army to go south to attack the Ming Dynasty after conquering Korea, and I am afraid that it will be delayed for at least half a year.
Even now that they have conquered Korea without any losses and looted a lot of resources and population, their pace of going south to the Ming Dynasty will inevitably be delayed by half a year.
"How many soldiers did you lose in the siege today?"
"Back to Your Majesty, there are thousands of casualties among the soldiers!"
"Chuan Zhendi ordered, tomorrow the whole army will launch a general attack, and whoever climbs the mountain city of Namhan first will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver; Those who break through the walls of Hanshan will be rewarded with silver money and food, and the official will be promoted to one level! ”
It seems that Huang Taiji was completely exhausted by the resilience of the Koreans, and after hearing that more than a thousand soldiers had lost, he immediately made a decision and scolded murderously.
"Yes!"
"In addition, there is also an edict: to break through the mountain fortress of Namhan, our army will not seal the sword for three days, except for the Korean royal family, the rest of the people can be killed!!"
“……………………”
"Yes!"
In the end, Fan Wencheng could only accept the will with a dark look in his eyes.
