Chapter 19: The Law of Battle
Soon, the thieves fled five hundred paces away, stopped, and huddled together in a disorderly manner, screaming and shouting, not knowing what they were talking about?
There are too many of them, and even if they retreat, they still look black and oppressive, giving people a lot of pressure. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
At this time, the corpse that fell fifty steps away from Wang Shen and the others was bleeding profusely.
More and more, gradually gathered together, along the terrain towards the storehouse.
In the blink of an eye, Wang Shen's shoes were wet with those black and red liquids. If you don't count wrongly, this round of salvo just now killed at least hundreds of thieves. In other words, every two shots of the Divine Arm Bow is to harvest a human life, and with such high efficiency, it is simply a human flesh harvester.
Feeling the greasy and sticky human blood under his feet, the cold hairs on Wang Shen's body, who had always been bold, stood up. After he traveled to the Song Dynasty, in order to survive, he killed eight people one after another, and originally thought that his mind was as hard as iron. But compared to the cruel life and death scene in front of him, what are the heads of Yi Jie's beasts?
This is just the beginning, there are still 20,000 feather arrows in the warehouse, and I don't know how many people will die under the arrows of the god's arm bow.
Among the more than 200 soldiers and civilians of the baggage battalion present, only a few people such as Gu Lie had experienced a real war, and when they first came into contact with the enemy, they were certainly frightened. But once it was opened, a strange flush appeared on everyone's face, and they were in absolute excitement.
It was about a large amount of adrenal hormone secreted that overdrew the strength in the body, and when the thief army retreated, everyone looked fixedly ahead, and no one spoke for a long time.
Wang Shen glanced at the half-grown child beside him: "Soldier, what's your name?" ”
"Back to ...... Back to the commander, I'm ...... I, I, my name is Wang Danian. ”
"How?" Wang Shen asked.
"Commander, I'm ......"
Wang Shen: "Wang Danian, isn't this war very simple!" You just have to do what you are told, and you don't even have to open your eyes. I can see clearly that you shot a thief with your own hands. ”
Wang Danian was stunned: "Did I really kill someone?" ”
Wang Shen laughed and glanced at everyone: "Everyone can see clearly, although there are many thieves, it is not a big deal." Lao Tzu can win even if he closes his eyes. If you don't believe it, wait a minute, you can also learn from Wang Danian to blindfold your eyes. ”
Everyone was shocked and exclaimed in unison: "Don't dare!" ”
"There's no harm in trying."
"General Wang, you can't help it...... Haha, haha! More than 200 men burst out laughing at the same time.
The laughter was full of reverence for Wang Shen and confidence in winning this victory.
Everyone knows that if it weren't for Wang Shen's commander today, the corpse lying in front of him would have been himself. This man was not only brave, but also very good at fighting. In this wave of attacks just now, hundreds of thieves were killed, but none of us were killed or injured here, God, God!
With such an official, we can all live.
In an instant, everyone in this rabble was glowing with a powerful momentum, as if they were the elite of a hundred battles that had been on the battlefield for a long time.
Wang Shen nodded secretly: Yes, there is no natural soldier, and anyone is afraid of going to the battlefield for the first time. But as long as you see blood, your eyes will be red, isn't this how the elite is trained? In particular, the ancients were honest and simple, and they were qualified soldiers. Their courage has risen, but what about me......
Looking at the corpse lying in front of the battle, looking at the red in his eyes, Wang Shen had a feeling of wanting to vomit, the war was not as romantic as he had imagined before!
Fortunately, Lao Tzu is a traverser and knows what kind of goods Li Yu's thief army on the other side is. If you deal with the Fa well, and rely on the power of the Divine Arm Bow, it is not difficult to keep it for a day.
Yes, in real history, in the early years of the Southern Song Dynasty, the combat effectiveness of the rogues everywhere was very weak.
As far as the combat effectiveness of these rogues is concerned, it is divided into three grades.
The first block is Li Cheng, Cao Cheng and Kong Yanzhou, who used to be Hebei tycoons. Hebei came to be a war zone where the Song Dynasty and the Liao State repeatedly fought for hundreds of years, and the local tyrants from all over the country built forts to protect themselves, and their families were very capable of fighting. After the Jingkang Revolution, the two were put into the command of Si Zongze, who stayed in Tokyo, and were supplemented by the remnants of the Western Army who were exiled to Henan, and after training in the military methods of the Song Army, their combat effectiveness was very strong.
The second block is Zhang Yong and Wang Shan, and most of their subordinates are homeless people from all over the world. However, after training with Zong Ze, it can be regarded as a regular army.
But even the thief army of these two grades, during the Battle of Nanxunmen in Kaifeng, encountered Yue Fei's 200 cavalry, and they were also beaten to the ground and collapsed on all fronts.
As for Li Yu's troops, they were similar to the Yellow Turban Army in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, they didn't understand the art of war at all, so they walked like locusts and ate all the way, constantly coercing the people everywhere, and it was like a snowball.
Such an army is not worth mentioning at all, but it is strange to say that when he was in Huaibei that year, Liu Guangshi actually suffered a defeat under him, and almost became a prisoner of others.
Later, it was Wang De, the first fierce general of the Huaixi Army, who bravely killed the enemy, which defeated the thief army, rescued Liu Guangshi, and achieved an unprecedented victory.
At that time, Li Yu had 30,000 people, while Wang De only had a few hundred elites.
The gap between the displaced and the regular army is so great.
Now that Wang Shen's more than 200 people have iron armor on their bodies, each of them has a divine arm bow, and they have suitable tactics, he doesn't think it is difficult to defend the treasury of Pingyuan Town. Yue Fei and Wang De can do what they can do.
The battle just now also proved this: Li Yujun is a bunch of garbage.
Wang Shen made a gamble, and it turned out that he might be able to win this bet.
……
The clouds are all around, and there is no wind. Wearing thick armor on his body, it was like being in a steamer, and sweat came out one after another.
Wang Shen ordered people to bring the salt tea that had been boiled before to quench the thirst of the soldiers, handed over the command of the first team to a chief, walked to the back of the formation, scooped a scoop of water from the bucket and drank it in a big gulp.
A person walked over and arched his hand at him: "Brother Wang has a good army, these two hundred miscellaneous soldiers are at your disposal, they are no different from our old Western Army, admire!" This time, win the pleasure. ”
It was Gu Lie who came, this veteran was covered with wet mud with human blood, and he couldn't stop scraping the soles of his feet on the steps at the door of the warehouse.
Wang Shen: "It's not easy to win this battle, there are tens of thousands of enemies, and it is impossible to kill them all." We also have a shortcoming, it would be nice to have cavalry. All it takes is a flurry of fire, a shot at the bandit army's position, and a single charge to crush the enemy. ”
"There are cavalrymen who also talk about a ball." Gu Lie said with a smile: "Brother Wang, seeing that the tactics you just now are exactly the number of our Western Army, which team you have worked in before, maybe we can climb a fellow villager." ”
Wang Shen: "Gu Dutou, do you listen to my accent like a Qin person?" ”
Gu Lie slapped his forehead: "I forgot, Brother Wang, your accent sounds like a Yan person, it's not good to say that you are a Khitan, the Khitan and our Western Army have similar methods of fighting." It must be yes, you are a Han Chinese from Liao? Speaking of this, Gu Lie looked skeptical.
Wang Shen: "I'm too lazy to talk to you more." ”
"What Khitan?" Lu Can and An Niang walked over, took a deep look, and said excitedly: "Daosi, just after the battle, I have no master of the six gods, and it is thanks to you that I can defeat the thief." I didn't expect your art of war to be so skillful, and it seems that I did the right thing by handing over my troops to you. Today, keep the treasury, I will tell Uncle Liu Ping about your merits, and hand over this army to you. Now that national affairs are like this, what is most lacking is a warrior like you. ”
Wang Shen helped him up: "Ziyu, this day is still long, let's live first." You and An Niang go back to the storeroom first and get some food for everyone. How can a soldier fight if he lacks food in his abdomen and is weak in his body? ”
"Okay, I'll leave it to you here." Lu Can shouted for a long time just now, but he didn't shoot an arrow, but he made himself sore, and he couldn't stand it for a while. He also figured it out, even if his martial arts were good, he was indeed not the material for war. Rather than messing around here, it's better to do some logistics.
As he spoke, a fierce drum beat sounded from the thief army over there.
Lu Can was taken aback: "The thief is going to attack again." ”
Wang Shen: "Don't worry. ”
He walked to the middle of the line and shouted, "All right, everyone is almost rested." I know that everyone was blindfolded in their minds just now, and they didn't have any addiction. Now, let me show you what it means to fight after battle, and what it means to chop melons and vegetables. ”
Everyone shouted: "May only the king's general be the head of the horse!" ”
Beside him, Gu Lie stabbed Wang Shen with his hand: "Brother Wang is really a hero, but Lu Yuhou is in chaos, and he will only command blindly when he encounters something." It's also ha, who is Lu Yuhou, Liu Guangshi personally wrote a letter to invite him, it doesn't matter if he can fight or not. As for us pawns, if we are dead, we are dead, and no one cares. ”
Wang Shen: "No one is born to fight, you underestimate Lu Ziyu." ”
"Hehe, anyway, if I go to war, I don't want to catch up with such a boss. If I have a choice, I am willing to follow you, Brother Wang, at least I can't die...... You're not a commander, though. Gu Lie seemed to smile: "Hey, what the hell are you doing over there?" ”
The voice was full of surprise, Wang Shen followed his finger to look over, but saw that Li Yu's thief army in the distance began to stir again.
About twenty minutes had passed since the enemy had last retreated, and the dust had settled, and the situation in the thief formation could be clearly seen.
I saw that the crowded group of thieves suddenly separated to both sides, and about 100 gorgeously dressed men came out of the middle. These men were dressed in strange clothes, all barearmed, covered in green linen, with red scarves wrapped around their heads, and with large knives on their backs. A long piece of red satin was tied around the ring, wilting and hanging over his shoulders.
All the shirtless men in green shirts held a clay pot in their hands, and incense sticks were lit in the jar, and green smoke rose from it.
"What is this?" Wang Shen asked suspiciously.
"Maybe it's the Daredevils, right?" Gu Lie wasn't sure, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a high-pitched horn.
