Chapter 227: Don't Think of Going Back
The march at night, but only a dozen large lanterns in front of the light to lead the way, except for the sound of footsteps, there is no noise, and according to the standard before the Dengzhou army camps, it is necessary to explore the horse to search the distance of thirty miles away, such a moonless night, such a march, in the eyes of the soldiers of this era, is an extremely difficult task to complete.
In the Jiaozhou battalion, the soldiers do not need to run for a livelihood every day, but are training in physical fitness and combat skills every day, and sufficient food and salary ensure the stability of their minds, while the officers need to preach and discipline every day, so that they have a strong obedience and discipline. The training close to the modern army ensures abundant physical fitness, constantly instilling faith, allowing them to have a good attitude and courage.
These factors were the guarantee of this rapid night march.
The guerrilla Luo Haobu, who had been harassed since he left the city, was exhausted from the beginning of three days, and then the degree of harassment gradually weakened, and the exhaustion at the beginning slowly turned into fatigue.
Luo Hao didn't have to worry about the roar of the camp and the bombing of the camp tonight, but the enemy army came directly to the door.
The Dengzhou army also has its own precautions at the door, but they don't pay too much attention to it at all, until now they thought that it was really bandits that happened in the Rushan Cottage that the army was annihilated and dispersed, because the situation reported by the magistrate over there, Zhizhou and others was that bandits attacked the army.
This matter is ridiculous and sad, the army was attacked by bandits, and the army was broken up, and the magistrate reported it, and the generals felt extremely normal, and the superiors did not feel suspicious.
Everyone thinks it's commonplace, the officials are invincible, and no one is surprised, which is really ridiculous and pathetic.
Luo Hao and his own soldiers no longer care about killing their compatriots, they slashed and killed indiscriminately with knives, and finally sorted out the chaotic military camp a little, and after subduing the nearest camp, those camps were also the whole team to suppress the other chaotic parts.
There were sharpened and tied up wooden frames, and the soldiers guarding the door quickly moved the wooden frames to the doorway to block them, and according to the rules, the soldiers immediately had to hold long weapons on the wooden stakes, and the soldiers with bows and arrows and firearms were ready to fire to block them.
However, the camp is already in a panic, how can there be so many people to do this kind of thing, in order to be the commander and take the lead, Li Meng and Zhao Neng are both on dozens of horses in the front, wearing armor and holding knives and axes in their hands.
There is nothing unsafe to say, according to the observation of the eyes hidden in Zhuangzi, this big camp did not even dig a trench, but simply surrounded a wooden fence. Then a group of yawning soldiers hurried to sleep, as long as it was chaotic, it was too easy to break through.
Seeing dozens of horses lined up and pressed towards this side, the spears in the hands of the soldiers standing behind the wooden fence couldn't help but tremble, and in the end they couldn't bear the pressure, and the chaotic situation behind them was even more bottomless, and in the end they simply dropped their spears and ran towards the camp.
The dozens of knights at the front, all with weighted knives and axes in their hands, approached and slashed at the stake, which soon cut open the stake frame.
The soldiers behind rushed in, Li Meng and dozens of knights around him formed an arrow, and slowly rushed into the middle of the barracks, while the foot soldiers of the Jiaozhou battalion, although they were surging, were not in a hurry, according to the order, formed a square team, followed the horse team, and launched a formation.
In the end, the dozen or so large lanterns and two hundred sword and shield bearers from outside also entered the barracks, all of whom were holding short weapons in their hands, carrying large bundles of dry firewood and grass, and some of them carrying clay pots.
Dozens of heavily armored cavalrymen formed a queue, and in the midst of this chaotic camp, all that was needed was to see someone appear within the range of the horses' weapons, raise their swords and axes and slash down.
As for the infantry soldiers in the back, according to the square formation on the battlefield, slowly unfolded, the distance between the foot soldiers and the foot soldiers slowly widened, of course, they had to do the same as the cavalry, and the spears and axes in their hands beckoned to the approaching enemy.
After the sword and shield hand carrying firewood and grass also suddenly entered the barracks, the scene was much quieter, Luo Hao finally stabilized the troops, but at this time he found that half of the camp was the enemy, the soldiers' tents were directly pushed open, and the wooden fences erected around were also knocked down.
"You dare to attack the soldiers and horses of the court so blatantly, do you want to rebel!"
Luo Hao could only shout at the top of his voice, the enemy had not yet attacked, his own soldiers and horses were in chaos at first, and when he was only halfway through the chaos, the enemy had already rushed in, and the soldiers were even more chaotic.
When he finally stabilized the situation, he found that there were more than 5,000 soldiers, and those standing beside him were in their early 3,000s, and there were corpses everywhere, and the thousands of enemy soldiers standing opposite were like killing gods, which made people's hearts chill.
In this Luo Hao's heart, Shandong is nothing more than two soldiers and horses that can fight, one is Liu Zeqing's subordinates, and the other is the troops of Qiu Lei, the chief soldier of Shandong, that Liu Zeqing's troops were defeated by "thieves", that is a matter of course, the border soldiers of the nine towns have been defeated, not to mention these inland army horses (in the Ming and Qing dynasties, Shandong was considered inland, of course, at that time it was the difference between border towns and inland, as for the coast, few people think this is the border).
But among the officers and soldiers, Liu Zeqing was destroyed, and the most capable of fighting should be his own soldiers and horses, this strong army that emerged there, Shandong General Qiu Lei and the officers below never felt that Li Meng, the general of Laizhou Mansion, would have such a strong strength.
However, looking at the enemy army in front of him, with its neat formation, standard equipment, and strict orders, how could it be the so-called bandits and thieves......
The barracks looked very dark, after all, it was night, except for the torches held by a few people, the rest was the brazier fire tank lit at night, and the shadows reflected the enemy troops in front of them, like ghosts and gods in front of the soldiers who were finally organized behind Luo Hao.
"Everyone is a soldier of the imperial court, why bother attacking each other so much, if it gets big, it will become a situation of Kong Youde...... Luo asked for a word here, how about removing each other today and leaving a convenience. ”
This was very simple at first, but then it softened, what Laiyang City, Li Meng, completely ignored the silent warriors on the other side, as well as the dozens of heavily armored knights on horseback, the kind of momentum exuded in the darkness made him more and more frightened in his heart.
I can't see who the other party is, but what I am facing is overwhelmingly powerful, people must be afraid of the unknown, or so I don't know where it comes from, such a powerful enemy makes Luo Hao even more afraid.
Suddenly, the entire barracks suddenly lit up, and the officers and soldiers behind Luo Hao were startled at first, and then someone saw the reason for the light, and several directions of the barracks were blazing, and soon someone shouted heartbreakingly:
"The granary is on fire!"
Finally, the sword and shield men who entered the barracks piled firewood and grass on the grain and straw, poured oil on the clay pots, and then fell on them with lanterns.
The fires were burning everywhere, the weather was dry, the firewood and grass were burning oil, and the fire was extremely intense, and for a time the open space of the barracks was reflected as if it was daytime.
The dozens of knights immersed in the darkness immediately appeared in front of Luo Hao's eyes, Pinghai guerrilla Luo Hao had never seen Li Meng, but when he saw the other party's horses, they could be called horses, the key parts of the horses were covered by leather armor, and the cavalry on the horses were all wearing full armor, and they didn't look like tattered goods.
At this moment, Luo Hao reacted quickly, and shouted angrily there:
"You are the soldiers of Laizhou Mansion, are you already so lawless, you actually crossed the garrison without authorization and came to our Dengzhou Mansion to ......?"
The soldiers in this world, whether it is a nine-sided town or the richest place in the south of the Yangtze River, are always inseparable from this poor "word", tattered clothes and tattered weapons, military salaries are withheld layer by layer, stationed in places on weekdays, to support themselves, sometimes they have to go out to work as helpers, when the generals are fighting, loot places, when they are not fighting, they deduct military salaries, in addition to giving their own soldiers can also be paid in full, and then they can make as much as they can get into their own hands. Buying an extra weapon and an extra piece of clothing for his soldiers is all out of their own pockets, who wants to spend that unjust money.
Li Mengfu, the general of Laizhou Mansion, is a rumor in the whole Shandong, and he is willing to buy such neat armor and weapons for the soldiers, in the six mansions of Shandong, I am afraid that there is only Li Meng, if he is a thief and other thieves, it is for food and rebellion, how can there be other spare money.
was called by Luo Hao, Li Meng lifted his mask and said slowly:
"General Luo, you admit your mistake."
As he spoke, dozens of soldiers around Luo Hao wanted to rush towards this side, but they were hit by the soldiers who had been waiting for a long time with a firecrackle, and they shrank back in embarrassment, Luo Hao's head was sober, and he immediately reacted that the other party in front of him was much stronger than himself, and his life was controlled in the hands of others. Hurriedly said:
"How about the incident this time, my brother will return to Dengzhou with soldiers and horses, and he will definitely not say anything."
Li Meng closed the mask mask leisurely and said in a muffled voice:
"Dignified court generals, make these Jianghu people's tones, do you still expect to return to Dengzhou City?"
As soon as the words fell, Li Meng raised his sword to urge the horse, and the killing sound behind him was like thunder, and the army immediately rushed forward......
