Chapter 72: Surprise Attack on Tianzhu Mountain
The so-called stronghold of Tianzhu Mountain naturally cannot be directly on Tianzhu Mountain, but in the area of Tianzhu Town, not far from the foot of Tianzhu Mountain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Rao is like this, from the outside into the Dabie Mountain Range and then to the vicinity of Tianzhu Town, it is almost twenty miles away. The mountain trail can be different from land, especially when it comes to marching, and in a few cases you can advance a kilometer a day, which is actually very good.
Fortunately, whether it was Yang Lang or the soldiers below, excluding Liu Xing, Xu Fu, Li Yu and Huang Gai, the other soldiers were very familiar with mountain walking, even if there were no roads, they could move quickly along the straight line. There are even special ways to find directions in the forest. If you are familiar with your living area, this feature can be further improved.
Originally, Jiang Xiaman wanted to transport the materials back to the mountain, so naturally it was impossible for manpower to transport them. In fact, the livestock of the four counties have been requisitioned by them, from donkeys to horses, and even cattle or buffaloes, which have been used as means of transportation.
Either you put the items on either sides of the livestock, or you can set up a pallet truck and transport it. Of course, those captured female dependents may also need to help carry some things, so the traces caused by this are naturally very obvious.
Especially since there has been no rain in the past two days, the traces on the ground are naturally clearer, and the special mountain roads are everywhere, and it is really difficult to see them. It's just that Yang Lang said that there are the most light and dark whistles on this road, so he had to take another detour to the path.
This trail leads to Tianzhu Mountain, but there are about three miles to open up for another way. Fortunately, there are plenty of manpower, and rotation is not a problem.
It's just a twenty-mile journey, and Li Yu and the others have moved for more than a day. In order to avoid being discovered, I didn't even dare to light a fire when I was resting. lest smoke and fire attract the attention of the other party!
Although there is no GPS positioning system, Li Yu bought a military map, and secretly took it out and compared it when no one was around, they are currently near the middle section of the Nine Rat Ridge in the later generations, and they can go down the mountain and enter the range of Tianzhu Town at the same time.
Originally, the mountain road that entered Tianzhu Town happened to pass next to the Nine Rat Ridge, and there were bright and dark sentinels everywhere in the previous section. At present, it is difficult to say how many light and dark posts are in front of us, and we will not know until Yang Lang, who has gone out to investigate, when they come back.
"My lord, although there is still a sentry ahead, there is no secret sentry anymore, and the location of the bright sentry has been discovered! The subordinates had the courage to sneak in, and they already had a general idea of the situation inside, including the places where the prisoners, grain, grass, livestock, and belongings were piled up! Two hours later, Yang Lang led the team back.
Originally, everyone was still wondering, why did he go for so long and come back, but he didn't want this guy to sneak into the enemy camp on his own initiative, didn't he know that once he was discovered, this surprise attack would be wasted?
"Not found?" Li Yu was still a little worried and asked.
"Others don't dare to guarantee it, but purely in terms of stealth skills, there are few Momen who can compare to their subordinates!" Yang Lang replied very proudly, and Xu Fu on the side also nodded and agreed.
Yang Lang is an alternative in Momen, with first-class archery skills, first-class equestrian skills, first-class stealth skills and assassination skills, but if he resists head-on, he will be weak. It's better to say a ranger than an assassin.
Generally speaking, the art of infiltration and assassination can only be learned by the special assassination unit of Momen. They are all the most powerful beings in Momen, and it is said that they once assassinated the patriarch of a family, but this Momen will never admit it. The most famous thing on the bright side is naturally that Wang Yue killed Helan Mountain alone and returned from the head of Chief Hu, but it is the most proud record of Momen.
In modern times, this is actually a very successful example of a special operation.
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, there was no reaction in the stronghold, and there was not much movement. It seems that Yang Lang is really a strange person, entering the enemy's camp tent as if there is no man's land, thinking of this, not to mention Li Yu, Huang Gai They all feel cold and fluttering.
After all, such an existence really intends to kill them. I don't know when I'll get some sleep, and maybe my head will move the next day. This kind of person is not easy to mess with, and it's great to be a partner!
"Peace of mind, Momen won't be so bad, otherwise wouldn't everyone have shouted and beaten him?" Yang Lang obviously knew what they were thinking, and couldn't help but remind.
Also, although Momen is weak, he is not a street rat that everyone shouts and beats, which shows that others are still very principled. At least, I didn't think that Momen could carry the risk of being wanted by all the families in the world and kill the Quartet. A terrorist organization that cannot be directly turned into a ******-level terrorist organization, and no dynasty will treat them in the future.
"Alright, everyone, cheer up! We know you're working hard, but now is our best chance to attack the enemy! I won't say much nonsense, Yang Lang, tell me your advice! Li Yu looked at Yang Lang.
"To put it simply, our northwest side is where they put their livestock. The manure of the livestock is not taken care of, so it is smelly and not many people usually want to approach it. A few sentries and our scouts can quickly help eliminate them, just open the door of the barn, or even light a fire inside, then the frightened livestock will run wild in the stronghold, and all we need to do is to touch the area where the leaders of the other side live and capture them in one fell swoop!
If you want to achieve a more complete victory, you should divide up a part of your forces and go to the place where the food is stored, where you will set a fire. In fact, if an adult carries a grenade, the odds are even greater! Yang Lang looked at Li Yu with some pity.
The latter didn't want a grenade to leak out, not even a wooden shell, so he didn't bring a grenade with him this time. Of course, in the case of a real crisis, he will buy some on-site use, and if he goes out, he can also buy a micro-conflict sudden!
The problem is that he is a civil official, and he is not going to be a Confucian general or anything else. It's already rare to be able to reach the front line, and it's a shame to venture deep into the enemy camp for a surprise attack or something, he just wants to be a Sven in peace.
"This is your first time leading troops into battle, are you sure?" Li Yu looked at Huang Gai, he was the commander-in-chief of this operation, and he was called training his subordinates, or trusting his subordinates' abilities, so he let him go.
"Use me in this battle, use me to win!" Huang Gai came to the autonomous region for a short time, and he actually got a lot of slogans about Li Yu training soldiers, and now he has it at his fingertips, which is also a bit interesting.
As for some in-depth questions, he actually knows it in his heart, but he doesn't break it down. Li Yu has always appeared as a civilian official, and his physical fitness can only be regarded as not weak, but it is definitely not as good as those who often practice martial arts. It is indeed too difficult for him to let this guy lead the troops to rush to the front line. Of course, no one would say such a thing......
"Leave in a quarter of an hour, everyone immediately check their armor and weapons!" Li Yu immediately issued a military order.
Huang Gai and others also immediately began to check when they heard this, the so-called details determine success or failure, sometimes a piece of sand in the shoe may also lead to the death of a soldier on the battlefield, and the death of a soldier sometimes means the appearance of a gap.
The quality of a famous general is to take advantage of such a gap to break into it and completely tear apart and defeat the enemy's formation. In other words, the defeat of a war is likely to start with a single piece of sand!
It's a bit of an exaggeration, even a bit of an exaggeration, but it's always good to double-check your gear and physical condition and adjust it. After a quarter of an hour of inspection, after all the hidden dangers were eliminated, even the team felt a lot more tidy.
This was a surprise attack, but even a surprise attack would cause casualties, and even Li Yu couldn't avoid it. In particular, although these soldiers have many mountain warriors, they are actually new recruits. With the above, there may still be loopholes.
"Guys, come back alive!" Li Yu solemnly saluted everyone. Because they needed to be quiet, everyone didn't answer, but silently saluted Li Yu and set out on the journey.
Under the leadership of Yang Lang's scout troops, the group quickly moved in the northwest direction, and at this time everyone just moved silently, and they didn't even dare to breathe too loudly.
Seeing that the enemy's camp was in front, Yang Lang took the lead in killing out with his scout troops, and when there were still about two hundred paces away, he saw Yang Lang holding the bow with one hand and kicking the bowstring away. A specially made feathered arrow quickly wound up and shot directly at one of the soldiers.
The arrow was so powerful that it nailed the soldier's head to the fence next to it. Before the soldier next to him could react, he saw Yang Lang quickly turn around, and another arrow was quickly wound and shot, but three lives were harvested.
His longbow was designed by Lin Ming himself for him, and then with the help of Li Yu, he added a pulley set to make it easier to open the bow. It's just that Yang Lang felt that he was not used to it, so Lin Ming simply helped him upgrade to a five-stone bow, which could shoot the enemy from a distance of four hundred meters, and was even said to be within two hundred steps.
If it weren't for the obstruction of the vision at night, I was afraid that Yang Lang would have already shot even three hundred steps away.
Close-range shooting also has the benefit of shooting at close range, where the arrow pierces the first person's head, then passes through the second head and into the third person's head. Such an arrow kills three people, thanks to the just right position of those sentinels, as well as Yang Lang's outstanding shooting skills and eyes.
"Awesome!" Seeing this, Huang Gai couldn't help but admire.
"Hurry up, adults are still waiting for us to return triumphantly!" Yang Lang didn't talk nonsense with him, and motioned for him to attack quickly.
"I don't need you to say that I know, the grain and grass will be handed over to you, and the thieves will be handed over to me!" Huang Gai replied, and quickly led more than 900 soldiers to kill him.
There are also more than 100 elite soldiers, guarding Li Yu's side and guarding the rear. Although there is no opportunity to make meritorious contributions, protecting the commander-in-chief is also the key, and they will naturally have a share of the credit after the war.
Xu Fu and Liu Xing are also among them, of which Xu Fu also has the mission of protecting Li Yu before receiving the order; And the latter is currently a pure civilian, so naturally there is no way to go into battle to kill the enemy, so he will not hold back.
A fire suddenly rose and set the barn on fire. The livestock, whether it was cows, horses, lambs, or sheep, scattered in all directions, and the hair on their bodies also set fire to a lot of places, and as they moved, the surrounding tents were also set on fire.
The movement here in the barn still attracted the attention of the thieves, but Huang Gai didn't care so much, and directly rushed to the front, and the gods blocked and killed the gods and Buddhas, and a bloody road was killed by him.
In a short time, Huang Gai had already broken through the defense line of the opponent's periphery and directly entered the middle tent, and several people in armor in a hurry suddenly appeared in sight. You don't need to look at it to know that these are Jiang Xiaman's thief heads, ordinary thieves, which one has this condition to wear armor?
"That's a lot of money!" Huang Gai laughed loudly, and the iron whip in his hand slashed at the thieves. Suddenly smashed, two of them were directly opened, and the remaining thieves planned to resist, but few of them could resist for three rounds.
Huang Gai's ancestor was Nanyang Taishou Huang Zilian, and later separated, and his ancestors left a line in Nanyang. In later generations, Huang Zhong came from Nanyang, and he couldn't say that he was a relative, after all, the two of them were not only surnamed Huang, they were both so strong, and they both had the characteristics of being old and strong.
It was only a few minutes before and after, the battle was over, the real fight was actually not so gorgeous and long-lasting, and the quasi-opportunity was basically over when it went down, and there was nothing to say about it that was unsightly.
"Hahaha, soldiers, kill me out!" Huang Gai killed all the thieves, laughed and led the soldiers out to kill them.
He didn't let the soldiers cut off the heads of the thieves to persuade them to surrender, but he knew in his heart that these thieves and the thieves had more or less relatives or relatives, so not only could not make them surrender, but would let them come over and fight hard.
"You and the other leaders have already fled, and they are not ready to be captured?" You can't threaten the head of a thief, but you can use other methods to guide the other party's collapse.
I haven't seen the leader come out to command for a long time, and at this moment, many thieves really thought that the leader had abandoned them and fled. At the same time, he had no idea of continuing to fight, and saw the livestock walking around, and he was trampled to death if he was not careful.
Soon a fire began on the side of the granary, and the fire spread rapidly and set the tents around it on fire. However, there was no leader to command, and the pawns below were originally from different villages or tribes, so they didn't trust each other at all. In the absence of command, there is no way to exert combat effectiveness in fighting on their own.
Seeing that the leader had fled, except for a few who were close to the middle tent and knew the truth, most of the soldiers did not know why, and finally they were frightened and fled one after another. As for the existence of that few, they were finally killed by Yang Lang and Huang Gai.
"Get the people out of here, let's go!" Seeing the fire spreading, Huang Gai saw that the enemy had gradually moved away, so he shouted.
The number of soldiers has been reduced to more than 600 people, and although they have the advantage of the surprise attack, they still inevitably suffer casualties. The rest of the soldiers also have a lot of injuries, but fortunately, there are not many seriously injured, in fact, it is difficult to have seriously injured soldiers in this case, and those who can't get up will often be stabbed by thieves.
The captive women and children were released, and the rescued women ranged from one year old to forty years old, and most of the boys were less than a year old and their heads were not higher than the wheels. This is a very simple truth, those who are higher than the chariot have often begun to remember and know how to remember hatred, but those who are not higher often have no memory, and they can be cultivated as clansmen.
This principle is not only common to the Hu people in the north, but sometimes the Han people, or the barbarians in the south, also understand this principle. Jiangxia has lived in the mountains for a long time, and it is impossible to just reproduce inside, and it is rare to go down the mountain to naturally take the opportunity to replenish the population.
"You are safe, we are officers and soldiers, follow us!" Huang Gai saw that there were no obvious scars or other marks on the women's bodies, so he said with confidence.
Although these women are trophies, they still have to be distributed before they can be counted as their own, and no one knows which woman they will be assigned to, but they don't want to be fathers in the end, but they just preserve their innocence.
Of course, the few who were too beautiful and were assigned by a few leaders were exceptions, they were tossed half to death, and they fell in the middle tent, and Huang Gai was not interested in taking them away, so they could only fend for themselves. War is like this, there is no benevolence and morality to speak of, especially when there is still a war just now.
When the women, girls and children saw the officers and soldiers coming to the rescue, although they were still crying and crying, they also followed according to the instructions, and the group walked for a quarter of an hour and finally returned to the Nine Rat Ridge and successfully joined Li Yu......
