Chapter 601: Attempted Attack (3rd Update)
Yunxia Mountain is rich in water, the mountains are rugged in the east, west and south, and the north is even steeper, no matter where to attack, it is very difficult for the tribal cavalry who are good at fighting on the plains.
Last night, the Yan army set traps along the way, wasting the time of the tribal cavalry in vain, and at this moment, they must have arrived at Yunxia Mountain early.
The Yan army carried enough food and built a defense in Yunxia Mountain, and it would definitely not be difficult to hold on.
On the contrary, gathering the tribes of the Woma Plain, there will be no accidents in the source of food in a short period of time, however, under the long-term persistence of the tribes, the food will gradually decrease, and the new and old hatreds between the tribes will definitely make the tribes clash again.
"Zasuhe, stop clearing the ground stumbling ropes, the rear army becomes the front army, and the army detours to Yunxia Mountain."
If it continues to be delayed, the Yan army will build a defense in Yunxia Mountain, and the army will increase casualties in vain, and it will continue to confront the Yan army for a long time.
Not to mention the bankruptcy of his plan for a quick victory, even the idea of hoping to control the cavalry of various tribes will be frustrated, and the opportunity to take charge of the army may also be deprived.
"General, make sure you don't clean up these things, in the future, reinforcements will come, and if you don't know it, you may continue to cause unnecessary casualties!" Zha Suhe, who was haggard, heard Bolchi's suggestion, quickly cheered up and asked rhetorically.
Bolchi's face was gloomy, and he shouted coldly: "There are no reinforcements, in this battle, we must completely annihilate the Yan army!" Even his subordinates didn't believe him, so Borchi was very hurt inside.
Hearing this, Zasuhe had no words, hoping that things could go smoothly as Borchi said, otherwise, the army would inevitably suffer a heavy blow from the Yan army again.
However, he also hoped that the army would be able to find a suitable opportunity to inflict heavy losses on the Yan army, after all, if this battle continued to be lost, the tribal cavalry would be weakened again, and even he might face death again.
Immediately, Zasuhe ordered the cavalry to stop their movements, all mounted and prepared to transfer, and soon, the army that was slowly moving forward gradually accelerated to the northwest direction, and made a detour to Yunxia Mountain.
The distance between the two armies is not far, only more than ten miles in a straight line, and it is not more than ten miles to move forward in a roundabout.
The whole army changed formation, and the coalition army arrived near Yunxia Mountain in less than half an hour, and sitting on a war horse, he could clearly see the situation of the Yan army building fortifications on Yunxia Mountain.
The army stopped five miles away from Yunxia Mountain, looking at the Yan army's actions near Yunxia Mountain, Zha Suhe felt that the dream was about to come true, the Yan army of Yunxia Mountain was blatantly building fortifications, and his heart was ecstatic and couldn't help asking: "Lord Wang, do you want to take advantage of the defenselessness of the Yan army to launch an attack directly?" ”
At this moment, the Yan army had just completed the construction of the first line of defense in the grassland, and it was going all out to build the second line of defense under Yunxia Mountain, and there was indeed no defense.
Bolchi quickly raised his hand, interrupted Zha Suhe's words, and said coldly: "The spies reported that the Yan army cavalry arrived at Yunxia Mountain at the same time, at this moment, Yunxia Mountain is full of infantry tracks, and Hou Mingfeng led 50,000 blade soldiers?" Besides, our 200,000-strong army is coming, and the other party has already noticed it, but it is still indifferent, and there must be something to rely on. ”
If 50,000 bladed soldiers were brazenly arrayed under Yunxia Mountain, Borchi would never be afraid of the opponent's combat strength with one enemy and ten enemies, and would not hesitate to lead the army to battle.
However, the other party disappeared mysteriously, which made him have to reconsider whether to attack or not, after all, the blade warriors are famous, and if they rely on the geographical advantage to form an arrow formation from a high position, it is difficult for the cavalry to rush up the hillside.
On the surface, Bolchi showed unstoppable courage and fearlessness, but in the face of the Yan army, there was also a little panic in his heart, at present, the elite of the 50,000 Yan army disappeared, looking at the infantry close at hand, he did not dare to act.
This battle is related to his reputation and status in the grassland, if he does not rush up without a head or brain, Yunxia Mountain will most likely become the grave of the tribal cavalry.
Sensing Bolchi's hesitation, Zha Suhe couldn't help but urge: "Lord Wang, this is a rare opportunity, we have 200,000 cavalry, no matter what conspiracy the Yan army plays, it can't stop our cavalry charge." ”
Zasuhe felt that after the Battle of Xishan and the loss of the legion of death row prisoners, Borchi became more and more cautious.
At this moment, if he led the troops alone, even if it was 100,000 cavalry, he would dare to charge and kill the enemy, and he would never give the Yan army of Yunxia Mountain any extra time.
When Borchi heard this, he was still unmoved, feeling that Zasuhe was a little better and forgot the pain.
During the pursuit, the Yan army would set traps along the way, causing the tribe to lose its troops and reach Yunxia Mountain, how could the Yan army build fortifications in an unguarded manner.
There are a large number of cavalry under his command, and the number of Yan troops is also quite large, and the strong attack may not have an advantage.
However, Bolchi was not without the idea of taking the opportunity to annihilate the Yan army, although it was rumored that the blade warriors could achieve one enemy against ten, but after all, there were only 50,000 cavalry.
If you can find out where the Yan army is hiding and know yourself and your opponent, it will be easy to deal with the blade warriors.
"Lord Wang, the Yan army has always been warlike, maybe the protection infantry corps has arrived at Yunxia Mountain, and Hou Mingfeng has led the cavalry to the Woma Plain!" The second suggestion was not accepted by Borchi, and Zasuhe guessed that it had to be said that according to the Yan army's previous combat style, it was not impossible to do so.
There was no precedent for the Yan army to send infantry into the grassland before, so Bolchi did not believe that according to Hou Mingfeng's cunning, he would leave tens of thousands of infantry in Yunxia Mountain and go to the Woma Plain when there were a large number of tribal alliances behind the Yan army.
This move was not Hou Mingfeng's combat style at all, he guessed that Hou Mingfeng mostly led the blade warriors, hiding somewhere near Yunxia Mountain, as long as the tribal cavalry charged, the other party would immediately show up.
"Zha Suhe, you can't take it lightly, quickly send out spies to investigate the specific situation within a radius of ten miles in detail!" Fighting with Yan Jun many times, all of them were calculated by the other party openly and secretly, and Borchi became cautious.
Hearing this, Zasuhe was depressed, and only felt that Borchi was wasting a good opportunity in vain, but the military order was like a mountain, and he had to act according to the generals, waving his hand to signal the action of the hundred cavalry around him.
He hoped that it would be superfluous for Bolchi to worry, once the spies determined that Hou Mingfeng's army was not near Yunxia Mountain, and the army would quickly go into battle, he would definitely vent all his anger last night on Yan Jun.
The cavalry left, and Bor Chi still stared at the Yan army in Yunxia Mountain, judging from the actions of the Yan army, it was obvious that he had found the traces of the coalition army, but he did not stop the fortifications in his hand, which made him more and more sure that there were ambushes on all sides.
Otherwise, the other side would not dare to blatantly continue to build fortifications and completely ignore the coalition forces.
In addition, he was sure of one thing, the Yan army was indeed prepared to garrison Yunxia Mountain for a long time, otherwise it would not have built fortifications.
For a while, I was crazy in my heart, I really missed the opportunity last night, and the opportunity to annihilate the infantry of the Yan Army slipped out of my hands in vain.
Prepare spies to determine the specific whereabouts of the Yan army and make a quick choice, otherwise it is definitely not a good thing for the cavalry of all tribes to let the Yan army hold on for a long time.
Yes!
A sharp scream came from not far away, and a cavalry company with a horse quickly fell to the ground.
There seemed to be something moving quickly in the grass, and when the horses got up again, the cavalry disappeared, and several arrows rained down from the sky, and the horses were wounded, neighing, turning around and galloping.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
After the first scream, a scream sounded, and then something similar happened to the cavalry in all directions, and the sound of one after another came from all sides.
Soon, the hundred cavalry sent did not fail to reconnoiter the slightest news. On the contrary, all of them died inexplicably and tragically in a short period of time, and only a hundred war horses, after being frightened, came galloping in panic.
"General, there are ambushes in the grass!" Seeing the situation in front of him, Zasu looked anxious to report to Borchi.
It backfires, it backfires!
Borchi was really sharp-eyed, and knocked out that the Yan army had ambush soldiers, and if he attacked rashly before, he inadvertently fell on the way of the Yan army.
Zasuhe secretly wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, turned his head to look at Borchi, and couldn't help but look at him with admiration, thanking the other party for not taking the enemy lightly.
"How could this king not know!" Once again, he inexplicably lost a hundred cavalry, all of them were warriors of his own tribe, Borchi was instantly angry, but there were a hundred war horses in front of him who were frightened and galloped wildly, and they had to deal with the other party before, otherwise there would definitely be cavalry impacted again. "Shoot the horses quickly! Mu Kun, lead your 30,000 cavalry and try to attack! ”
At this moment, Bolchi was intuitively humiliated, and the other party had no scruples to kill a hundred cavalry in front of him, but he didn't even see where the Yan army was hiding.
It stands to reason that in late spring, even if the grassland is lush and green, it is not like the late autumn when cavalry troops can be hidden.
Although he didn't see any trace of the Yan army, Bolchi dared to be 100% sure that there was a Yan army lurking in front of him, and for a while, his inner doubts were alleviated a lot, and he intuitively felt that no matter what, he had to try to fight.
As long as a small number of cavalry leads out the traces of Hou Mingfeng's legion and completely determines the opponent's lurking position, the main legion will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on the opponent.
General Mu Kun is from the Tamu tribe, and at this moment, the situation is in crisis, and Mu Kun will inevitably be a member of the death squad again by Borchi!
However, Mu Kun did not execute quickly, turned his head to look at Borchi, with a look of hesitation, and asked rhetorically: "Lord Wang, why is it that our department is responsible for the reconnaissance and suppression of the Yan army spies, and our department is still responsible for the battlefield, the final general knows that the prince has a disagreement with my prince, if the prince is ready to vent all the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart on our cavalry, the last general will refuse to execute the prince's generals." ”
Mu Kun, as a fierce general under Ta Mu, in order to ensure that the tribe is not attacked by the Yan army, he will definitely kill the enemy wholeheartedly.
Unexpectedly, Bolchi couldn't help Tamu, but vented all his anger on them, and Mu Kun had already complained about Bolchi's practices, and at this moment, when Bolchi was ready to treat them as substitutes, it completely broke out.
In order to fight against the Yan army, all the tribes have united, but Bolchi, as the prince, is obsessed with it, and treats the words and deeds of the Tamu tribe all the way, which Mu Kun can't accept.
