Chapter 282: Surprise Attack
After receiving the order, Ma Fengyu asked the craftsmen in the army to make a hundred white-pole guns overnight, Yang Lin was puzzled, and carefully studied these white-pole guns for the first time.
White-pole guns are equipped with a bladed hook on the top and a hard iron ring on the bottom, which can be cut and pulled during combat, and the ring can be used as a hammer weapon.
When Yang Lin was puzzled, he saw that Ma Fengyu asked people to connect more than 100 white-rod guns, and more than 10 tools that could be climbed were formed so quickly.
Ma Fengyu tried these white poles, and they were quite strong, and when he was about to lead his troops to attack the Tartars on the east side of the Iron Lock Pass, Yang Lin was shocked in his heart and stopped: "Fengyu, your method is well known to your husband, but if you climb the rock without a little practice, I am afraid that it will get worse in the middle."
Listen to the husband's words, you can choose a hidden place, let these hundreds of people train for half a day, and then everyone will climb the rock again, so that the green battalion will be defeated. ”
Ma Fengyu was quite dissatisfied and said: "Ruzhen, since you handed over the arrow to the concubine, how can you interfere with the concubine's military?"
You just have to sit in the barracks and wait for the triumphant news, and you think about who is to blame if you miss the fighter plane because you intervened in the military plane. ”
Yang Lin felt a spicy face, but said with a smile: "Of course, whoever is the husband, listen to what the husband says, if the brothers under him practice skillfully, then they can win all battles." ”
Ma Fengyu had no choice, glared at Yang Lin fiercely, and led the soldiers and horses to a hidden place ten miles away to practice.
Early the next morning, Ling Jing Keqin led his troops and horses to attack Xiliang, and Feng Youqing led his troops to attack Shanliang in the east.
In order to achieve the purpose of attracting the enemy's attention, Yang Lin concentrated 20 Fran cannons and used flowering shells, which fell on the mountain beams one by one, not only blowing up the garrison soldiers and horses one by one, but also causing the fires caused by the flowering bombs to make the entire western mountain beam burst into flames and smoke.
In the midst of a shout, Feng Youqing led a battalion of soldiers and horses to kill the mountain, and for a while, the thunder shook the sky, and the sound of muskets and shouts of killing were intertwined, one after another.
Ma Fengyu led more than 100 people to hide in a forest, his eyes kept staring at the signal of the Chinese army camp, seeing that the entire front mountain had been lit with a raging fire, looking at the smoke that had filled the front mountain, listening to the front mountain shouting and killing one after another, but he just couldn't wait for the order to attack.
Ma Fengyu bit her lip and said to Yang Feng, the captain beside her: "Captain Yang, don't wait for the adult's order, if we rush up, we will definitely kill the other party and turn over on the horse." ”
Yang Feng shook his head and said: "Madam, this, this is not good, before the expedition, the adults told us not to be reckless, and we must hear his order to attack before we can attack." ”
Ma Lei, the maid next to her, pulled out her treasure knife and glared at Yang Feng fiercely: "You didn't listen to Madame's words, you don't want to live?"
You are so disobedient, believe it or not that I killed you? ”
Yang Feng nodded and said, "Madam, if you kill a small one, it is equivalent to killing an ant, nothing."
But Madame also knows that the adults are very strict in governing the army, even if you kill the little ones, but the brothers below will not go out without the orders of the adults.
Madame, wait a moment, and think that since your lord has promised you to lead an army to attack, you will definitely give the order when the time is ripe. ”
Ma Fengyu glared at Yang Feng fiercely, signaled Ma Lei to put away the treasure knife, and was about to send a probe horse to urge again, when suddenly the flag speaker who was in charge of observation hurriedly ran over and said, "Madam, you see, the lord has issued the order to march into the army." ”
When Ma Fengyu heard this, he pulled out his sword and said softly: "Brothers, traitors have entered the plain to kill, set fire, kill, kill and loot, brothers, now is the time to avenge our brothers and sisters who died, everyone rush me." ”
When everyone saw it, they picked up hundreds of white-pole guns and rushed to the front of the cliff, which was more than ten zhang high (33 meters), and the cliff was steep and difficult to climb.
On the one hand, the hooks and rings were quickly connected together, and a long ladder of more than 30 meters was quickly formed, which was set up under the cliff under the joint efforts of everyone.
Four or five strong men guarded the long ladder, more than a hundred soldiers hid in the grass in the distance with flintlock pistols in their hands, and a short man tied a rope around his waist and climbed up the wooden ladder.
The mountain is very steep, the mountain wind is very strong, and the simple wooden ladder made of white pole guns looks wobbly, especially in the middle of the mountain.
It took a while for the man to finally climb the cliff, and then tied the rope around his waist to the big tree and boulder, while the soldiers behind him relied on the rope one by one and relied on the simple long ladder to slowly climb up the cliff.
In this way, it took two pillars of incense to work, and more than 100 people climbed the cliff, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone was happy.
The fierce battle in front of the mountain was in full swing, the Tartar troops were tight, and the surrounding green battalion soldiers and horses were limited, and through the thin smoke, I saw that there were several green battalion soldiers two hundred meters in front of them looking at everyone in horror.
Yang Feng waved his hand and led everyone to kill him, how could these soldiers be the opponents of the Hundred Battles Guard Battalion, except for a few who escaped, everyone was subdued by Yang Feng and others.
Yang Feng asked the two captives to be isolated and examined, and when they saw the fierce and vicious volunteer soldiers who kept climbing up, these two soldiers were terrified and told Yang Feng and others the scene on the mountain without reservation.
Now the volunteers are in a hurry to attack the mountain, and the general Hui Yingzhao led the main force to the front mountain to defend, and in the back mountain, there are only one or two hundred old, weak, sick and disabled.
Hearing this news, Ma Fengyu was overjoyed and said: "Yang Feng, I will give you a squadron to attack the green camp tent and control the grain and grass of the green camp. ”
Yang Feng was shocked and said, "Madam, the fierce battle in the front mountain is in full swing, so you still want me to lead the soldiers and horses to go." ”
Ma Fengyu pulled out the treasure knife, pointed at Yang Feng and said, "Yang Feng, you don't listen to what I told you, did you?"
Do it now, or I'll be punished for battlefield disobedience. ”
Yang Feng had no choice but to lead more than 30 people to attack the Green Camp Tent, while Ma Fengyu led his troops to kill Qianshan.
Early this morning, the volunteers attacked the mountain very fiercely, not only did the artillery in the distance continue to fall, causing great damage to their own side, but also under the cover of muskets and bows and crossbows, they continued to charge up the mountain.
Although the green battalion was in danger of defending, its firepower was far inferior to that of the other party, and the volunteers were well organized, and they fought like this for a long time, and neither side took advantage.
After fighting like this for a long time, seeing that the volunteers had no new tricks, Hui Ying Zhao breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that today was like this, who knew that there was a burst from the back mountain: "Escape, the volunteers are coming from behind." ”
Hui Yingzhao turned his head to look and saw a cluster of flames burning in the back mountain, and then there were bursts of shouts and killings, seeing all this, the whole person almost collapsed to the ground, and there was no speech for a long time.
Hui Yingzhao is like this, and his soldiers are even more so.
In this era, the military discipline of the army can not be very strict, to the back of the mountain is lost, the morale of the green battalion soldiers who are blocking the fall to the bottom of the valley, now I see the volunteers under the mountain suddenly exert force, a team of soldiers regardless of the stones thrown down desperately climb the mountain, some people see that the general situation is not good, and some even turn around and prepare to escape.
Hui Yingzhao had no choice, he didn't have time to change into ordinary soldiers' clothes, and fled to the back mountain in the chaos.
Before he could walk a few steps, he was intercepted by a large group of volunteers, and everyone knew that it was a big official who was covered with good armor of hundreds of gold and silver, and they shouted to kill, and in the end they were hacked to death by a knife.
The sneak attack on Xishan was successful, and the soldiers and horses of the Green Battalion occupying Dongshan tried to escape, but were intercepted by the volunteers, and finally the whole army was destroyed.
The Volunteers won a complete victory, and in one fell swoop captured the dangerous pass that Wu Jie's use to defend the Golden Vulture Technique, and everyone was quite happy.
In addition to the battlefield review, Yang Lin emphasized the role of the Mandarin Duck Formation, in the past, everyone often emphasized the Mandarin Duck Formation, but in fact, they often forgot the so-called Three Talent Formation, that is, a formation evolved from the Mandarin Duck Formation when attacking, that is, the Three Talent Formation, or the triangle offensive tactics on the basketball court in the previous life.
Mountain warfare is different from plain warfare, in a small space, a squad is very crowded, so more emphasis needs to be placed on the coordination within the squadron.
During the battle, often two sergeants (veterans) each led two soldiers to raid left and right, while the squad leader led the main force to attack head-on, so the combination of positive and odd achieved a surprising victory.
In addition to formally emphasizing the importance of the triangular offensive, there was also a review of the weapons aspect.
There is very little space in the mountainous areas, and the wolf is too long (two zhang), it is difficult to play the battlefield effect at all, and the longest weapon in the mountain battle is better to use the spear.
In the past, there were too many spears in various cold weapon units, and if they could learn from the characteristics of the white pole guns and connect them with hooks and loops, they could quickly build simple ladders and achieve a surprising winning effect.
After explaining one by one, the Ordnance Bureau was arranged to temporarily build according to the characteristics of the battlefield to meet the needs of future operations in the mountainous areas of Hanzhong.
