Chapter 221: The Liangshan Bandit Who Can Only Sneak Attack
Du Yan smiled, loudly praised several people for completing the task well, and at the same time couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
To be able to achieve such a result, the battle was fought so easily, and he completely grasped the initiative, it is really thanks to the insight of the military master's brother.
If it weren't for the fact that the elder brother of the military lord attached so much importance to the training of soldiers, the daily training would never be interrupted regardless of wind or rain, and the training of all veterans would be divided into squads and individual soldiers.
In other words, now all the veterans of the Liangshan Army have the ability to perform tasks alone, even if they are scattered, they are not afraid, and the cooperation between the teams is extremely tacit.
This sniping Song army scouts was like this, three hundred scouts, two thousand cavalry were all scattered into pieces.
Scouts in a group of two, ordinary cavalry twelve people an independent combat team, when encountering the Song army scouts, if the number is far less than their own side to quickly catch up, more than 100 steps by the front six people with a god arm bow to shoot horses, rush to the front by the back six horsemen with a horse bow shooting, of course, the main thing is to shoot horses, and finally capture the Song army scouts.
If the number of scouts of the Song army was more than six or more, the Liangshan cavalry would fight with them on the one hand, and inform the other squads with a Ming Di on the other, and then attack from two directions when the number of people was overwhelming, annihilate them in one fell swoop, and capture them alive as much as possible.
At the end of the day, this flexible style of play immediately blinded all the scouts sent by the Song army, and when some of the scouts saw that the situation was not good and wanted to turn around and flee, how could they outrun the Liangshan cavalry army, which far outnumbered them and had better horses.
As a result, there was a record of annihilating more than 460 scouts of the Song army, and more than 380 people were captured.
The same was true of the night raid that followed, also thanks to the foresight of the military owner's brother early in the morning, and two special operations forces, the special operations battalion and the special operations battalion, were created.
It turned out that according to the art of war, when the army was still on the march, in addition to opening the road first and reconnoitering the enemy's intelligence, the scouts had to report in detail to the general of the unified army where they might camp in front.
However, what the commander of the Song army did not know was that the camp site they scouted for him had actually been explored by the Liangshan army scouts a long time ago, and they had prepared in advance on the periphery.
When the Song army chose one of the locations to prepare for camping, their entire process, including setting up secret posts on both sides of the intersection, in the grass, and in the woods, in short, everything was actually watched by the Liangshan army scouts.
After nightfall, isn't it easy for the Liangshan Special Service Battalion and the Special Operations Battalion to clear these secret outposts at designated points?
After that, under the cover of night, with the help of a certain camouflage, he lurked and sneaked under the wall of the Song army, and then launched an attack by surprise, which only took two volleys to sweep away the Song army standing guard on the wall at night.
As for the more than 1,000 cavalry troops led by Du Bai, it was purely scary, and at the same time, by the way, he sneaked to the Liangshan army not far from the camp to pick them up, otherwise once the Song army chose to fight, they might suffer a big loss.
As for the real night attack and stealing the camp, it is something that Du Yan has never thought of, because the risk is too great, and it is extremely uncost-effective to attack and defend the camp.
Even though the night will have a great impact on the Song army, it is also the same for the Liangshan army, which can easily turn into a melee, not only the outcome is unpredictable, but also the casualties are large.
The lord's brother is still thinking about recruiting them as much as possible!
That night, the Song army did not send a large army to attack, but sent a cavalry army of 200 men to roam around the camp and within the light of the blazing fire burning on the wall, always on the lookout for the enemy in the dark.
However, because of the protection of scouts and secret sentinels along the way, Liang Shanjun slept boldly for an hour.
Because the Song army camped with its back to the river, and then a thousand Liangshan cavalry troops were led by Du Bai, and the people wrapped their horses and hooves quietly went around to the left side of the Song army camp.
Then untie the cloth wrapped in the horse's hooves, suddenly charge at the Song army camp again, and successfully killed and injured more than 200 Song army cavalry soldiers who were wandering outside the camp for the night, and then before the Song army cavalry reinforcements arrived, they calmly withdrew, only Hu Yanzhuo, Chen Yu and others were so angry that they jumped to their feet but were helpless.
After that, all the Liangshan troops returned to the camp to sleep, but no one in the entire Song army village could still sleep.
They are afraid, afraid that as soon as they fall asleep, maybe the thunderous sound of horses' hooves will sound again, maybe this time the Liangshan army will come to the real thing, maybe tens of thousands of Liangshan troops have surrounded them, and they have already touched the outside of the camp, and the fear began to spread infinitely.
"Dashuai, it can't go on like this, in the eyes of the last general, this group of Liangshan thieves is not an ordinary rabble, we were too light on the enemy before, and the only way to do this is to postpone the march ......"
Early in the morning of the second day, Hu Yanzhuo and Chen Yu jointly offered advice to Liang Fangping, but before they finished speaking, they were interrupted by Liang Fangping.
"Isn't General Huyan scared by this gang of Liangshan thieves?"
Liang Fangping's eagle-like triangular eyes stared at Hu Yanzhuo, and a pair of brows wrinkled into a Sichuan character: "You must know that this time the official family is angry, and the order must fill up the water pool, Liangshan will be crushed, and Lin Chong will be captured alive!"
Now we haven't even touched the edge of Shuibo, and the main force of the Liangshan army has never seen it, so we are so frightened that we stop and fear the enemy like a tiger, how can we be worthy of the ardent hopes of the officials? Once the official family is angry, can you afford to bear the sin? ”
Hu Yanzhuo's face suddenly became very ugly, he didn't expect that he was very easy to talk before, how could Liang Fangping, who was quite knowledgeable about military affairs, react so much when he heard that he had postponed the army?
However, Hu Yanzhuo has always been cautious, in the original story, Zhou Tong ran away and he chased him for a while and did not dare to chase again, for fear of having a plan, you can know how careful he is.
Before that, after his first victory in the first battle of the Three Thousand Iron Armor Horses, he took the initiative to ask the imperial court for help (asking for Ling Zhen), which also reflected his cool-headed and thoughtful thinking.
Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, Hu Yanzhuo still admonished: "Great Marshal, it turns out that this group of Liangshan thieves is not at all like what we thought before, not only is their combat effectiveness extremely strong, but their scouts are even more brave.
Without our scouts, we will lose our eyes and ears, so we don't even know how many enemies there are and where they are, and I will be harassed every night, for fear that before our army reaches the edge of the water, the morale will be lost, and by that time ......."
Liang Fangping's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, although he still didn't take Liang Shanjun very seriously in his heart, and stubbornly thought that Liang Shanjun would only sneak attack and plot, once the real sword and real gun battle was definitely not the opponent of the imperial army!
Besides, he still has a nirvana in his hand, that is, the three thousand iron-armored chain horses under the command of Hu Yanzhuo, and when the time comes, he will suddenly use it as a killer weapon, how can the Liangshan army not be defeated?
It's just that Hu Yanzhuo has a point, this group of Liangshan thieves can't fight head-on, and the sneak attack on the road every day and at night is also annoying, and the blow to morale is too great.
After pondering for a long time, Liang Fangping's eyes suddenly lit up, only to see him slap the table and say loudly: "With ......"
