Chapter 605: Beat the Reservoir Dogs
When the main force of the Fuyuan Right Army led by Jiang Lai arrived at the battlefield, what he saw was the scene of Chen Kejun fleeing in embarrassment. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 The miners' battalion hoplites on the opposite side had begun to gather their formations, regrouping into phalanxes, firmly stuck in front of them.
"Gather the foot crossbows of the whole army, I don't believe it, you iron cans can still block the foot crossbows? If it can't shoot you, it will shock you to death! Jiang Lai gritted his teeth and said.
The crossbows were large and bulky, and they didn't carry many with them. But in the face of such vicious hoplites in front of them, the crossbow seemed to be the best choice. If there are hundreds of corpses, one roars in unison, maybe they can blast out a way.
This time, the miners' battalion on the opposite side did not stay where they were waiting for the Fuyuan army to attack, but slowly, like a black giant mountain, pressed forward.
On the flanks, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves, Jiang Lai turned his head to look, his face couldn't help but change slightly, it was the scouts he had just sent out, looking at their panicked appearance, he was afraid that something bad would happen.
A horse galloped and came to the front of Jiang Lai.
"General, the main force of the Ming army, the main force of the Ming army is here!" The scout's face turned pale, and he gasped.
Jiang Lai whipped it over: "What main force?" Who is coming, and how many are there? Did you grow up eating? ”
After being whipped, the panicked scout seemed to have become sober, but his body was still trembling: "Villain, villain saw the royal banner of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, as well as the cavalry, the cavalry all over the mountains. ”
"What do you say? The royal flag of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom? Jiang Lai's face turned pale suddenly. He never thought that he would actually meet the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom? The emperor drove the expedition in person, so how many people did he have to follow? However, isn't the barbarian army now marching towards the capital of Yue? Why did the emperor of the Ming Empire appear in front of him?
"You read that right? Is it really the emperor's royal flag? Unconsciously, his voice trembled.
"General, it's true, Wang Qi!" The scout's voice shook even more.
In fact, there was no need for scouts to prove it, because the rumbling hooves had reached Jiang Lai's ears, and the ground seemed to be trembling, he raised his head, and the first thing that caught his eye was a big bright sun and moon flag with yellow edges, and next to the sun and moon flag, was the famous fire battle sword flag. On the other side, the Flame War Sword Skull Banner with a hideous face, those two golden eyes seemed to be smiling at him.
At this moment, Jiang Lai didn't know whether he felt honored or sad, he actually bumped into the founding emperor of the Ming Empire and the two most powerful battle camps under his command. Needless to say, the skull flag, but anyone who knows Qin Feng's past knows very well that the skull flag is the battle flag of the death battalion that Qin Feng started, and Qin Feng has come to this day step by step with more than 600 veterans of the death battalion who fled from the Chu State.
"Retreat, retreat!" He turned his horse and walked back. "Chen Kejun, lead the cavalry to meet and intercept!"
Fuyuan army and left without a fight.
In fact, the death battalion led by Qin Feng personally from the flank was only more than 3,000 people, but these more than 3,000 people were all cavalry, thousands of cavalry scattered, and when they looked at it, it was indeed all over the mountains and fields, boundless, Jiang Lai was intimidated by Qin Feng's prestige, when he saw the Ming King Banner and the Fire War Sword Skull Flag, where was there still a fighting spirit? There was no second thought but to escape.
After escaping back and joining the main force, let's find a way! Mingguo's response was obviously completely different from the idea of the county guard, and the other party did not use the main force to deal with the barbarians at all, but aimed at them. The death battalion appeared, the miners' battalion appeared, and whether the other armies would appear in front of them, Jiang Lai didn't know.
The Ming army lacked war horses, and some of the few war horses were originally given to Yu Chao's scout camp after some necessary needs for each battalion, and the most important of Qin Feng's transactions with Qin State was to exchange steel and grain for war horses. However, Li Zhi is not good at stubble, horses are indeed unique wasteland horses in the Qin Kingdom, but all the horses sent to the Ming Kingdom are raw horses, and the time required to train these horses into mature war horses is not short.
Fortunately, the transaction between Deng Fang and Qin Feng solved Qin Feng's urgent need, and Deng Fang sent Qin Feng 2,000 excellent war horses through the border army of Qin State, which gave Qin Feng a magnificent scene of thousands of troops on the battlefield today.
With two thousand Qin Wasteland horses, plus some war horses collected from other places, Qin Feng barely managed to meet the needs of the entire death camp.
Hearing Jiang Lai's order, Chen Kejun's face turned yellow, but this is a military order, but there is nothing to talk about, go, it is also death, if you don't go, won't you die? Die faster. Gritting his teeth, the veteran Chen Kejun took the remaining more than 1,000 horsemen and smashed the horse to meet the galloping Daming Iron Stream.
North of the Luo River, Jiang Haokun looked at Ma Yan and the more than 100 naked soldiers who were tied up by Wuhua in front of him, and he was stunned. These more than 100 soldiers, except for Captain Ma Yan and dozens of soldiers who barely had a piece of clothing on their bodies, the others actually used some blades of grass to hang around their waists indiscriminately to pull their ugliness, not to mention the armor and weapons on their bodies.
Whether these soldiers live or die is not in Jiang Haokun's heart at all, and a Ming army suddenly inserted between him and Jiang Lai, which made him anxious. The other party dropped the pontoon bridge, the boats, and lined up along the river, just to intercept him north of the Luo River, and their goal was self-evident, that is, the 10,000 right troops from the river who had crossed the river and were marching all the way to Xinhua.
He can't afford to lose it, Tzu Chi battle, the left army suffered one-third casualties, it has already hurt its vitality, if the whole army of the right army folds its wings in Xinhua, then what to take Zhengyang, insert Changyang, sweep Shayang, take advantage of the opportunity of Qin Feng's main force being dragged by the barbarian army, in one fell swoop copied the pre-war opportunity of his old nest, and will all become the moon in the mirror, the flower in the water.
"Drive all these bastards to the logistics camp to push carts and transport food!" After thinking about it, I finally put up with the idea of beheading these guys for public display.
"Let the county guard go!" Ma Yan, who thought that he was going to die, and those soldiers were grateful, and after kowtowing a few heads, they got up and hurried away, if they stayed for a while, the county guard would regret it again, and the head would definitely not be protected, and now they looked too embarrassed, not to mention that other people looked miserable, but they themselves also felt embarrassed.
"The whole army is speeding forward, ordering the logistics to be heavy, when our army arrives on the bank of the Luo River, I will cross the river immediately, they must prepare enough equipment to cross the river, if there is a delay, kill!" Jiang Haokun said sharply.
The commander opened his mouth, and it was miserable, the army accelerated forward, and the logistics baggage battalion was advancing, while constantly sending people to find things that could cross the river, and the big trees were cut down and loaded into carriages, like the Mayans, who were distributed, and the two of them carried the wood one by one, as the troops advanced, but for them, picking up a life, it was already a very good result, where would they dare to have a trace of complaint? Work harder than anyone else.
The main force of the 20,000 Chinese army advanced rapidly, and the servants of the left army after the break did not dare to slack off in the slightest after getting the news, not only did they speed up the advance, but the whole army was also collecting timber, bamboo, and other materials that could be used to cross the river at that time.
Yuan Servant also knew very well that if Jiang Lai's right army was gone, their move out of Fuyuan would be a complete failure, and they who raised the flag to rebel would have no way to retreat at all, and if they were forced back to Fuyuan County, their fate would be extremely bad.
If you want to have a broad future, you must cross the Luohe River and take Zhengyang, even if you don't complete the first strategic plan in the end, as long as you have Zhengyang County, you will have more room for maneuver in terms of strategy.
On the bank of the Luo River, Liu Xingwen rode his horse to stand by the river, countless soldiers were building defensive camps, one by one sandbags raised the original river embankment about a foot higher, sandbag walls, sharp spears were compacted in it, if you want to climb from above, you have to pass them first.
Several scouts rushed from the direction of Xinhua and whispered a few words to Liu Xingwen, Liu Xingwen had a happy smile on his face, and shouted at his son, who was urging the soldiers to build the embankment.
"Liu Dai!"
Liu Dai trotted to Liu Xingwen: "Dad! ”
"Fuyuan Jianglai, about ten miles away from Xinhua County, was first defeated by the miners' battalion, and then was killed by His Majesty the Emperor, and now is fleeing in our direction, His Majesty the Emperor is leading the death battalion to chase after him, you immediately lead the elite of the two thousand thick soil battalions to meet Your Majesty, surround the Jianglai Division, and completely annihilate the Jianglai Division."
"Dad, go ahead, I'm here to guard the riverbank!" Liu Dai said, compared with beating the water dogs, the next battle here will definitely be more brutal.
"Confused!" Liu Xingwen glanced at his son, lowered his voice and reprimanded: "The opportunity to fight side by side with His Majesty the Emperor, do you think you will have the opportunity to meet at any time?" The Ming Empire will become stronger and stronger, and there will be fewer and fewer opportunities for His Majesty to personally conquer in the future, seize every opportunity, son. Let the emperor see you and remember you, it will be of great help to your future, not everyone can be in the emperor's heart. Take my battalion of 500 guards. ”
"Dad, I see!" The young Liu Dai glanced at his slightly old father, and the corners of his eyes were a little moist. The Liu family is not the past now, as the grandson of the Liu family, he naturally understands in his heart, and even the army led by his father can be squeezed into the field camp again, because his grandfather fought a lot of age in person, and fought side by side with His Majesty the Emperor many times in exchange, and his father is planning for the future of the Liu family. "I will let Your Majesty see a brave and unparalleled Liu Dai."
"Good, good!" Seeing that his son understood his thoughts, Liu Xingwen smiled with relief, glanced at the other side, and said proudly: "There is a father sitting here, Jiang Haokun will swim over unless he takes off his clothes." ”
