Chapter 185: The Great King's Order!

"This strategy is really vicious, we must fight with them quickly, if it is protracted, not only will our food and grass become a problem, but I am afraid that the morale of the army in Turpan City will also be shaken, and the situation will be very unfavorable to us." It was Bing Cao who judged Guan Ziyu to speak. Although fighting a war is the job of a military general, Zhu Ao felt that Guan Ziyu was very strategic, so he brought him with him, after all, it is not a bad thing to have one more strategist.

Zhu Ao agreed with Guan Ziyu's opinion very much, nodded slightly, frowned slightly on his handsome face, and said in a slight deep voice: "It should be said that this Bolhu is a master of using soldiers." ”

This kind of words that grow other people's ambition and destroy his own prestige is what he, the prince, dares to say, and the others are very interested in closing their mouths, ignoring his words, waiting for him to play and sing to himself.

Zhu Aohuo stood up suddenly, swept away the haze on his face, and turned to a majestic and domineering expression that made people dare not look directly, and shouted with a tiger face: "Great King Order!" ”

This is the king is going to arrange the battle deployment, and all the generals of the Su army stood up in unison, with a solemn and respectful face, looking straight ahead, not daring to slack off.

Hami King Nahuri was shocked by this scene, but he still coughed slightly, pursed his lips, and stood up slowly, his hands crossed on his lower abdomen, and his expression was very casual.

"Commander Wang Huchen!" Zhu Ao glanced at Wang Huchen, who was sturdy and dark-faced, and shouted loudly with a tiger face.

"The last general!" Wang Huchen suddenly stood up straight, shook his spirit and shouted loudly.

"Order you to command the forward battalion, and be responsible for filling the trenches and breaking the battalion tomorrow!"

"The last general commands!"

"General Zuo Li Mian!" Zhu Ao glanced at the previous commander of the palace guard, and the current General Zuo shouted loudly.

"The last general!" Li Mian straightened up and shouted loudly.

"Order you to command the firearms battalion, and be responsible for covering the forward battalion tomorrow!"

"The last general commands!"

"General Zhang Long!" Zhu Ao glanced at Zhang Long again and shouted.

"The last general!" Zhang Long was originally at the same level as Li Mian, but because he lost the prince last time he hunted and was punished, he only mixed up with a second-grade general, which was one level lower than the previous old brothers, and he often did not distinguish in his heart.

"Order you to command the left battalion of the infantry army, and be responsible for assisting the forward battalion to fill the ditch!"

"The last general commands!"

"Former General Qu Neng!" Zhu Ao glanced at Qu Neng, who was his most important, and shouted loudly.

"The last general!" The former general is the head of the military generals, Qu Neng knew what Zhu Ao meant by giving him this position, so he was extremely grateful, and vowed to repay the prince with his outstanding achievements, standing up straight and shouting loudly.

"I ordered you to be responsible for supervising military discipline, and those who dare to retreat from the battle will take the king's sword and cut off his head!" Zhu Ao shouted loudly, and by the way, he untied the sword in his hand and handed it to Qu Neng.

"The last general commands!" Qu Neng stepped forward, bent down, and took Zhu Hao's sword with both hands, feeling a great responsibility.

"Bing Cao judged the book Guan Ziyu!" Zhu Ao took one last look at the civil official Guan Ziyu and shouted.

"The minister is here!" Guan Ziyu stood out of the train and made a gesture.

"The merits of the generals are recorded auspiciously, and there must be no mistakes!"

"Obey the order!"

"The rest of the people, etc., will command the army with this king and support at any time!"

"The last general commands!" All the remaining generals replied in unison, with momentum like a rainbow and sound shaking in all directions.

Just when everyone thought that this military meeting was over, Zhu Ao changed his face with a pleasant expression, turned his head, and smiled at the Hami king: "The Hami king has been fighting with the Uighurs for a long time, and he must know their tactics, so let's act with the forward battalion tomorrow and assist General Wang Huchen in the battle." ”

King Hami glanced at Zhu Ao with a smile, although he had a kind smile on his face, he was very unhappy in his heart, he had been mixed for so long, he naturally knew that Zhu Ao was using him as cannon fodder, but he had no way to refuse, because Zhu Ao had already said just now, this is the king's order, if he dares to say a word, he doesn't need Zhu Ao to speak, the group of generals in the tent can eat him, and he can only say with a smile: "This king will do his best." "In my heart, I secretly scolded this Zhu Ao child is really ruthless, Lao Tzu has this little capital left, and he refuses to let go.

In fact, Zhu Hao was also forced to be helpless, he would face the powerful Uighurs tomorrow, they had 150,000 elite soldiers, which was even the existence that Feng Sheng, the god of war of the year, was afraid of, and he really had no absolute certainty that he could win against them, in case he fought with the Uighurs and lost both, then the 20,000 Hami elite soldiers left behind him would be a great hidden danger. According to the ethics of Nahuri, the king of Hami, Zhu Ao was very sure that he would definitely not call himself a virtuous son-in-law like today, so the best way was to fight his troops first, anyway, he now has a huge advantage over him, and he will not dare to say a word. If the strength of the two sides is reversed, it is really difficult to say what will happen.

"In that case, then you should go back and prepare first, and hope that we can start tomorrow with victory." Zhu Ao said lightly, and then did not say goodbye to the generals, sat down on the horse by himself, and looked at the map intently.

"The last will be retired." All the generals bowed to Zhu Ao, then slowly withdrew, and turned back to go.

Zhu Ao sat on the horse, looked at the map intently for a while, and then threw the branch in his hand on the map, stood up with a "poof", and returned to his marching bed.

Borhu is very tightly defended and very disciplined, but this king will definitely break your hard walnut.

In the early morning of the next day, the sun had just risen, and Turpan was still slightly cool in the early morning, but every soldier of the Su State was full of enthusiasm, because they knew that an unprecedented war was coming, and the opportunity to make meritorious contributions was coming.

"Whew!" After the first sound, there was a second and third sound, and then there were rows of horns, which was particularly refreshing to listen to, so that every soldier in the country of Su looked solemn, and the strings in their minds were jumping tightly, and they really had the tragedy of facing the enemy.

After the horn, the next step is "Knock knock!" The sound of the ancient snare drum is like magic, so that everyone who hears it feels enthusiastic, arrogant, and bold than before, which is probably the earliest use of music by the ancients.

After a burst of drums, the armies of Su Guo and Hami began to form formations, they were all well-trained troops, and after the generals communicated their deployment yesterday, everyone knew their position, so they completed the formation very quickly.

The forward battalion of the Su army and the Hami army were at the front, the left battalion of the infantry army was placed on their flank, helping them to fill the trench with sandbags and providing bow and arrow cover, and the firearms battalion was placed in the back, responsible for heavy fire cover.

Seeing that the Su army was in a posture of doing a great job, the Uighur army did not dare to slack off, and deployed more than 100,000 troops on the eastern front, relying on trenches, camps, and other obstacles to organize the defense.

Seeing that the troops were almost ready, Zhu Ao glanced at the herald next to him, and the herald immediately shot the arrow in his hand into the air.

With this crisp explosion, everyone held their breath, because they knew that the time for a general attack was coming.

"Put!" Li Mian, the general of the left who was in charge of commanding the firearms battalion, waved the order flag in his hand, and shouted loudly, Li Mian is not like Wang Huchen, who is stunned like Wang Huchen, and he has to pull out a knife to kill people at every turn, he likes to play with firearms, and the iron mortar gunner who broke the Hami army last time was his subordinate, so Zhu Ao handed over the entire firearms battalion of the Su army to him.

"Knock knock!" There was a series of loud noises, and the various cannons of the Su Kingdom let out a roar declaring their strength, and fired rows of huge lead bullets at the opponent's position.

The Uighur army's formation was also to put the chariot and sword and shield soldiers in the front, and the back were the attacking soldiers, because they were separated by a trench, their main means of attack was bows and arrows, and everyone on horseback was a sharpshooter, and each soldier was equipped with a hard bow, so the firepower was very dense, which was also their greatest advantage over the Su army.

In addition, the Uighurs built a number of tall turrets and enemy platforms more than one person high, allowing soldiers to climb to the top to condescendingly attack the Sue army. Although these animals will become the main target of the Su State cannon, but the Su State cannon is not so accurate every time, as long as it is not hit by lead bullets, even if the lead bullets fall to the side, it will be fine, take a step back, even if they are hit by lead bullets, at best, these fortifications will be damaged, and it is far from the point of destruction.

The effect of this platoon of artillery was okay, smashing several carts and smashing an enemy platform, but Zhu Ao did not continue to direct the artillery bombardment, but directly issued an order to attack, because he knew that these firearms in the early Ming Dynasty alone could not repel the enemy, at most it was to clear some obstacles before the battle, scare and scare the enemy, and give themselves a strong courage, if you want to defeat a strong enemy, the key is to fight hand-to-hand.

After the commander of the forward battalion made Wang Huchen see Zhu Ao's order, a smile hung on the corner of his mouth, finally it was time for Lao Tzu to make a move, these days can suffocate Lao Tzu, since the last war Hami made meritorious service and was promoted to three levels, Wang Huchen has never been so happy, so he is eager to make new contributions, now the time has come, how not to be excited, shouted: "Brothers! Offensive! ”

"Roar! Roar! The soldiers of the forward battalion of the Su army let out a burst of roars, and the sword and shield soldiers struck the shield with their broadswords vigorously, making a crisp metal impact sound, and the pikemen behind stabbed the spear to the ground a few times, and the deep sound of the spear hitting the ground was intertwined with the crisp metal impact sound of the sword and shield hitting each other, and the momentum was very compelling.

The officers and men of the forward battalion pushed their chariots and held their shields and quickly advanced towards the trench in front of the two armies.

"Hit!" Seeing that the combined forces of Su Guo and Hami entered the range of the archers on their side, the commander of the Eastern Front Corps also shouted loudly, and then waved the command flag in his hand downward.

The Uighur soldiers all bent their bows and arrows, and rained down on the Su army's position. Although there were chariots and shields for protection, this did not mean that the army was clothed with body armor, there were still dead ends, and so many Uighur arrows were fired, and it was inevitable that a few of them would pass through the dead ends and shoot into the flesh of the Uighur army and the Hami army.

Moreover, the Uighur archers were also very experienced, and when they saw the shield and chariot pushed in front of the opponent, knowing that they could not get a bargain by shooting directly, they raised their bows and arrows forty-five degrees, crossed the shields and chariots of the coalition army, and poured a rain of arrows on the infantry behind them.

"Quick! Fast! Fast! Keep up, don't fall behind, you will become a hedgehog if you fall behind! A general flag officer of the Su Kingdom held his shield high and urged his men to follow.

They learned from the Hami army back then, raised more than a dozen shields together, made an iron cover, and then let the infantry army drill inside to avoid the rain of arrows, although the appearance is very obscene, but it is indeed very practical, no one feels ashamed, after all, pretending to be forced on the battlefield is to lose the head.

However, no matter how tight the shield array is, there are loopholes, after all, it is artificially assembled, not electrically welded, and the sharp arrow has been following the gap between the two shields in this shield array, "Whoosh!" The ground shot into the chest of a shield soldier, and the arrow flew down from the sky, with great force, and directly pierced the armor, making a sound of "thud" into the flesh.

"Ahh There was a scream on the ground, and the sword and shield soldier of the Su army screamed directly, and fell to the ground, convulsing in pain, and a big gap appeared in this shield array of the Su army in an instant.

For a while, a lot of arrows flew in and shot several Su infantry. "Hurry up and prop up that shield, you have a eyesight, don't have to say everything!" This chief flag officer of the Su State is the supreme commander of this shield array, and when he saw this situation, he jumped to his feet and cursed. This group of people usually train well, and the handling of this situation has been simulated many times, how can they really run around like fools one by one.

After all, it is a new recruit, and it can't grow anyway without being tested in actual combat.

When a bold recruit heard this order from the commander, he immediately ran over and picked up his shield, and just as he was about to raise it above his head, a sharp arrow "Whoosh!" The ground pierced his head, and the recruit didn't say a word, but fell directly in a pool of blood, and died a miserable death.

The recruits next to him were all frightened by this scene, and no one dared to take a step closer to the gap, they all hid in a place where they thought they were safe, you look at me, I look at you.

"Hurry up! Are you still men? Hurry up and give Lao Tzu a top, the longer the delay, the more people will die! "When the little flag officer of the Su army saw his subordinates like this, his heart was on fire, just like you, you are also worthy of being called the Ming army? really threw Lao Tzu's people into the city of Hangzhou.

Then he raised his kick and kicked at the soldier closest to him, and scolded with a tiger face: "It's you, hurry over!" Otherwise, Lao Tzu will chop you alive! ”

The soldier was stunned for a moment, and then began to weigh it for a short time, if he went, he would not necessarily be shot to death, and if he didn't go, he would definitely be killed by his own commander, compared to the rain of arrows in the Uighur army, he still felt that his commander was more terrifying, and immediately his heart was crossed, and he stomped his feet, "Ah! With a loud roar, he ran to the shield, but before he could touch it, he was shot in the chest by an arrow that entered diagonally from above.

Zhu Ao is not rich enough to the point where everyone wears armor, and the recruits generally only wear a layer of leather armor. The ground burrowed into the flesh and shot through the recruit's heart.

The soldier lay on the ground, kicked his legs twice, and finally lay on the ground silently, his eyes had been looking at his chief flag officer before he died, and there was a very complicated look in his eyes, but one of the resentments could still be seen clearly, as if asking why his chief flag officer sent me?

The chief flag officer looked at the other party's eyes, and the boss in his heart was not a taste, although he felt that as a commander, there was nothing wrong with what he had done, but people were not grass and trees, who could be ruthless, and the other party's eyes still made him feel uncomfortable for a while, and immediately pulled over a recruit beside him, and shouted: "You give Lao Tzu this shield!" ”

With that, he put the shield in his hand into his hand, and then rushed forward with an arrow, picked up the shield that had fallen to the ground, and put it on top of it. The general flag officer of the Su Kingdom was lucky, and when several sharp arrows were about to fly down, he raised his shield above his head in time, blocking them out of the shield array, and made a few crisp metal crash sounds, which was very good.

This shield array was able to move on.

The Left Battalion of the Infantry Army, which was responsible for covering the forward battalion, arrived at the predetermined position under the command of Zhang Long, the former commander of the left guard of the palace and the current general of the second rank of the Su State.

According to Zhang Long's qualifications, it was no problem to be a general, but it was because he lost the prince and was punished in the last hunting activity, so he was demoted by one level and mixed with a second-rank commander.

Seeing that Li Mian, Fan Chaoxi, Qu Neng and other brothers who drank with him before had become his superiors, and he had to salute when he saw them, Zhang Long felt uncomfortable in his heart, competitiveness is what every man should have, who wants to live in the shadow of others all the time, not to mention that those people are still his former brothers!

Therefore, in this war, Zhang Long's stomach was full of breath, and he must show his prestige, make up for the level of supply he is missing, personally arrive at the front line to command the battle, and let the prince see his heroic performance.

With Zhang Long, a dignified general, as an example in the front, the soldiers behind naturally did not dare to be lazy, and they all bent their bows and arrows to shoot at the Uighur army on the other side of the trench, and for a time brought down many Uighur troops.

"Quick! Give me a lot of energy! There are a lot of people over there, they're all blind, shoot that way! Zhang Long hid behind a chariot, commanding the battle in a hurry, he wanted to turn over with this battle, but when he saw that his brothers were not strong, and they always failed to achieve the most ideal attack effect in his mind, his heart couldn't help but burst into flames, and he scolded his subordinates over and over again.

There are also a lot of newly recruited non-commissioned officers in the left battalion of the infantry army, and they are very skilled in archery and horses. After entering the attack position, he immediately found his own cover, found his target, ripped off the hard bow, and sent out a sharp arrow representing his strength.

A Uighur archer had just finished shooting an arrow, hid behind the cart to rest, and then bent his bow and arrow, trying to release another arrow, but as soon as he showed up, he was knocked to the ground by a sharp arrow from the Su State, and the bow and arrow in his hand fell to the ground.

On the other side of the trench, the corners of a non-commissioned officer of Su Guo curled up slightly, revealing a smug smile, and explained to the two recruits beside him: "Do you see clearly? Archery is not only accurate, but also to predict the opponent's position and movements, and the strategy can be one move ahead of the enemy, and the enemy can be defeated. ”

"Yes, yes, yes." These two recruits were completely impressed by the superb skills of their combat team leader, no wonder people can get such a high salary, can marry such a beautiful mother-in-law, and they have to practice hard, otherwise they can only be big soldiers for a lifetime.

While the three of them were chatting triumphantly, the sharp arrows of the Hugur army kept "Whoosh! The ground shot over, "Bang Dang! "Shoot off the helmet of the non-commissioned officer.

The non-commissioned officer of the Suppression State was startled, his neck shrank down suddenly, and he shivered all over, just now he was the closest to death in his life. How could he not be angry when his helmet was shot off, he was embarrassed for a while, he lost face in front of his subordinates, and the other party almost killed him?

The non-commissioned officer of the Suppression State was so angry that he took out a sharp arrow from the quiver, spat on the ground fiercely, and scolded viciously: "Rota Immortal Banban, them!" With that, he poked his head out, and with a lot of rage, shot his own arrow of vengeance at the Uighur camp opposite.

Seeing that their battle team leader was so furious, the two of their subordinates knew that he was in a hurry by the other party's arrow, and was infected by his emotions, and a cloud of anger rose in everyone's hearts, and they took out their arrows, and followed the rhythm of their own commanders, and shot at the opposite side one after another.

War is like this, before the war everyone was afraid, afraid that they would be unlucky and send themselves to the west without a head, but if it really started, everyone would not be afraid, and only thought about how to kill the other party faster, especially in a situation like this when the other party was in a hurry, even if he didn't want his own life, he would be killed.

The soldiers of the forward battalion pushed the chariot to the edge of the trench, and the shield array behind followed, and the next task was to fill the trench.

The task of filling the ditch was carried out by the Forward Battalion, the Hami Army, and the Left Infantry Battalion, and their method was similar to that of the Uighur army, in which the heavy infantry tied a sandbag behind them, and as the chariots and sword and shield men advanced in front of the trench, the sandbags were thrown down, and the small amount was added up, and finally the trench was filled.
