Chapter 606: Zhongfu is not afraid
That night, after nightfall, Luo Yi ordered 5,000 wolf tooth troops, plus the new artillery regiment, and 500 personal guards, to set off together and head for Luyang.
The reason why the army marched at night, and the march was so fast, was of course to avoid setting up an ambush on Xueding Mountain and adding unnecessary trouble.
Just as Sun Jian said, after the eldest grandson Wuji goes back, he will definitely let Xue Dingshan lay a heavy ambush, although the wolf tooth army is not afraid, but it will undoubtedly delay time.
A day later, the eldest grandson Wuji returned to Luyang and told Xue Dingshan the beginning and end of the matter.
Xue Dingshan was obedient and very unconvinced: "How can this be true! ”
"Lord Eldest Sun, how can you go to the peace talks in such a low voice? Is this a peace talk? I think it's a begging talk, right? If the emperor knows about this, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear the responsibility. ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "General Xue, you won't have to worry about this matter, after I go back, I will explain it to the emperor." What you have to do now is to defeat Luo Yi's 5,000 men, or... Ten days of delay. ”
"Hahahaha..." Xue Dingshan laughed: "Ridiculous! It's only 5,000 people, and it's not for nothing that I beat him? ”
"General, don't be careless, but don't forget the defeat of the siege two months ago."
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "After investigation, under Luo Yi, there is indeed a very unusual army, they have appeared repeatedly since three years ago, and have made great contributions repeatedly. It can be seen from this that the combat effectiveness of this army cannot be measured by the number of people, not to mention that it is only 5,000, maybe it is worth 50,000, 100,000... ”
"It's not that scary??? Xue Dingshan said with a frown.
According to what the eldest grandson Wuji said, Luo Yi's five thousand people, shouldn't they be invincible, although they were defeated once two months ago, but he didn't think that Luo Yi was really powerful.
"General Xue, you must not underestimate the enemy!"
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "You remember, the reason why Luo Yi can be here today is all because of this army, if you can destroy thousands of his people, you will have made a great contribution!" This credit is no less than the killing of Luo Tong. ”
"No matter what the price is, even if you toss these 200,000 people, you have to destroy these 5,000 people! After completing this task, I will speak for you in front of the emperor and ensure that you are promoted to the third level. ”
Xue Dingshan was not interested in the promotion of the third level of the official, but the eldest grandson Wuji boasted that these five thousand people were amazing, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
He turned his heart and said, "Lord Eldest Sun, please rest assured, I will definitely destroy his five thousand people!" ”
"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news."
The eldest grandson, Wuji, breathed a sigh of relief.
That night, Xue Dingshan talked to his wife Fan Lihua about it.
After hearing this, Fan Lihua also felt that the eldest grandson Wuji was a bit exaggerated, how could there be such a powerful 5,000 people?
After thinking about it, Fan Lihua said: "However, the Xiliang soldiers can destroy our fifteen trebuchets and all the siege equipment in a very short period of time, which shows that they do have a very strong strength. ”
"Husband, if you want to win this battle, you must win by surprise, and you can't wait for them to attack."
"Oh? What do you mean? ”
Fan Lihua got up, sat on the edge of the bed, and said: "You think, their weapons are so powerful, they will definitely be able to blow up the city tower, if we wait until they break through the city, we will have no chance, only in the middle of the ambush, can we have a chance." ”
Xue Dingshan thought about it and felt that what Fan Lihua said was very reasonable. If you rely too much on the city, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating.
He said, "Okay, tomorrow, I'll take the troops there." ”
"What tomorrow, go now."
Xue Dingshan said: "Huh? Go now? Don't be in such a hurry, right? ”
"Husband, have you ever heard a word?"
"What?"
"Call the soldiers fast, I guess Luo Yi has already led the troops here, maybe they will arrive tomorrow, you will go to ambush tomorrow and ambush anyone." You have to leave overnight. ”
Xue Dingshan suddenly realized, got up and said, "Not bad, Pear Blossom, you are really amazing." ”
He quickly got up and got dressed, and said, "I'll go tell Xue Yong now and let him lead the troops to set off." ”
"Okay."
Half an hour later, Xue Yong led 20,000 troops out of Luyang City and headed for a mountain col forty miles away.
This col is not the best place for ambushes, it is a little bright, but because it is at night, it can cover the body and play some ambush effect.
Of the 20,000 soldiers, there were 3,000 cavalry, 2,000 chariots, and the rest, all infantry ...
Such a well-equipped army, if it were to fight against an ordinary enemy, even if it had half the strength of the opponent, it would be enough to win.
But what they have to face today is not an ordinary enemy, but the Wolf Tooth Army with the most powerful combat effectiveness and the most advanced weapons under Luo Yi's command!
"General Xue, it is reported that the enemy has two hours to get here, how can we defend it?" In front of Xue Yong, there was a young general. This is his lieutenant general, named Wang Yu, a son of a big family.
Xue Yong was very vigilant and said: "This battle is not trivial, we must not be careless, quickly let the soldiers prepare, dig trenches, arrange archers to come forward to ambush, and when the enemy arrives, listen to my orders to attack." ”
"Yes."
Wang Yu thought for a while and said, "General, there are only five thousand of them..." ”
"Five thousand, is it a few?" Xue Yong said: "You don't know how powerful they are, alas, forget it, tell you, you don't know, hurry up and do what I say." ”
"Yes."
Wang Yu conveyed the order, and on the flanks of the col, a lot of trenches were dug, and the soldiers hid on the opposite side of the trenches, covering them with cols, and buried them properly, without revealing a trace.
Even so, Xue Yong was not at ease, and let people dig a lot of traps on the official road, and put some bamboo poles in the traps, if the enemy fell into it, he would definitely die.
Finally, two hours later, Luo Yi's army arrived.
Five thousand people came to the bottom of this col and drove along the official road at a rapid pace...
Among the 5,000 people, the 1,000 cavalry under Zang Ba was the vanguard, followed by the soldiers and horses of Wu Qing, Dong Fan, Lin Feng, and Cao Su, and as for Wu Qing's artillery regiment, it was placed at the rear, and Wu Qing was in charge of the rear of the palace.
Da Da...
Iron Rider gallops, blazing fast!
Suddenly, only to hear a rumbling, there was a scream from the front, Luo Yi ordered the whole army to stop, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Lord, there is an ambush ahead." Soldiers galloped in.
At the same time, in the surrounding cols, countless enemies crawled out, holding bows and arrows in their hands, and shot at the official road: "Whoosh...!" ”
Luo Yi didn't say a word, drew his sword and shouted: "Fight back." ”
Just these two short words made all the wolf tooth troops enter the battle state.
This is an encounter battle, and it is a test for the Wolf Tooth Army, since they were formed, it is the first time that they have encountered such an urgent matter.
But they did not panic, and several years of training have made them develop a good fighting quality and have super reaction ability.
Especially the soldiers under Wu Qing's command had the fastest reaction speed, and when Luo Yi gave the order to counterattack, he formed a counterattack team with the company as a unit and shot in the direction of the mountain pass.
Thundered...
In just five breaths, the other regiments also reacted, and in anger, they all took out the grenade 15 pinned to their waists, lit it, and threw it towards the back of the col.
Thousands of grenades, the power was amazing, and almost in an instant, the enemy's attack was suppressed, and several thousand people were blown up and flew and fell into the trench.
This is not the end, Wu Qing mobilized the artillery regiment, personally commanded it, and opened fire on the enemy's densely populated places: "Boom!! ”
After two rounds of bombardment, there were no more bows and arrows from behind the col.
