Chapter 555: Attack
The lights are bright in the big tent of the Ningxiang Army, and the officers above the middle level of the whole army, .cc [Marshmallow]
Liu Ge Lao sat on the upper seat, with a rare solemn face
。
Sun Yuan stood in the middle of the big tent with his hands behind his back: "The whole army of the Ningxiang Army will attack Botou Town tonight, the weather has been bad recently, and everyone should not expect moonlight." The night march was difficult. Fortunately, this night walk can be made with torches. Fei Hong, are the lighting ready? ”
Fei Hong arched his hand: "Back to the general's words, at the end of the past two days, the general has collected a lot of pine and tung oil nearby, and has made more than 2,000 torches. ”
At this time, Liu Ge, who was sitting in the first seat, said "Oh": "It turns out that the troops rested for two days not just to let the soldiers recuperate, but to make pre-war preparations!" ”
"That's what Elder Ge said." Sun Yuan nodded politely at him, and continued: "Even if this road is not easy to walk, you must speed up the march, and be sure to reach Botou Town at dawn." ”
"By the way, General Sun Yuan, there is still something unclear about my appearance, I want to ask for advice."
"Elder Ge, please speak."
Liu Yuliang: "The night attack is about surprise, with torches and songs, and go away with great fanfare, if you alarm Jiannu and tell them to leave, won't you run in vain." ”
Today is the first time Liu Ge Lao has gone to the battlefield, and it is inevitable that he will be curious, and there are many questions.
Sun Yuan didn't show any impatience, and said: "So that the elder of the pavilion knows that in this battle, our army is already attacking." If the enemy runs away, it is best to be able to surrender without a fight. The strategic purpose of our army is the military resources of Botou Town, and it doesn't matter how many Jiannu can be killed. As for the defenders of Botou Town, hehe, they left their baggage and ran away without firing an arrow, and they had no way to explain to the slave chief. ”
Liu Yuliang suddenly realized: "But it's too." ”
Sun Yuan: "In this battle, our army is still the same tactics as before. However, although Botou Town does not have a city wall, it is still a small city. If the enemy retreats into the city, it will be a little troublesome. Therefore, it was possible to crush the enemy army in the shortest possible time with a thunderous force from the very beginning. Fortunately, the defenders there are our old friend Kong Zhao, so don't worry. ”
Hearing the name Kong Zhao, all the generals laughed softly, the last time he beheaded the Battle of Ashan, what kind of goods did the Han Army Banner soldiers under him have, everyone has seen it. Two thousand against five thousand, this battle is not difficult at all.
Infected with the relaxed atmosphere in the tent, Liu Yuliang couldn't help but smile: "After going out of Beijing for so many days, the old man has been studying military books hard for a while. But I've been on the battlefield until now, but this time I want to see with my own eyes how the Ningxiang Army fights
。 ”
Sun Yuan: "The elder is a daughter, so let's stay in the old camp and wait for the good news of the last general." ”
"No, no, no. (Marshmallow provides Txt free download) "To tell the truth, Liu Yuliang has been an official all his life, a gentleman and a chef, and he has never even seen a chicken on weekdays. When I think of fighting, it is also a lie to say that I am not nervous. But it is not appropriate to stay in the old camp, the Ningxiang army attacked with the whole army, and it is estimated that one or two hundred people will be guarded in the old camp. I heard that Jiannu came and went like the wind, and it was really said that the footsteps were faster than the thieves in the south. Today in Tongzhou, tomorrow early in the morning may be in Fangshan. Staying in the camp by himself, he can't tell when Jiannu will be killed, or he should act with the team to be safe: "This official is the master of the Son of Heaven, so he naturally has to take the lead, so how can he stay in the rear." The old man will go to war with General Sun tomorrow, and you don't need to persuade him in this matter. A certain Qincha has the right to make decisions on the spot. ”
When the generals saw that he was righteous and awe-inspiring, they admired this old man Liu Ge, this old man is really a courageous person!
Liu Yuliang's words changed: "Of course, as the saying goes, it is impossible for a layman to command an insider." The old man is just learning the art of war now, General Sun, you can rest assured, the old man will only look at the battle tomorrow, how to fight this battle, it is all up to you, and the old man will never say a word. ”
Sun Yuan had to persuade again, Liu Yuliang put on a blanket face and shouted: "General Sun refuses to walk with the old man, but what kind of disadvantages, or do you want the court to conceal the capture?" ”
Sun Yuan had no choice but to say: "Since the elder pavilion is going, how dare the last general not agree." When the time comes, please also ask the elder to sit in charge of the Chinese army and not go out easily. ”
"Yes, yes, yes." Liu Yuliang nodded again and again, and then pointed to the donkey standing in the crowd like an iron tower standing like a flock of chickens: "I heard that General Jiang is the first warrior in the Ningxiang Army, and he is familiar with the art of war, the old man just took advantage of this battle to ask him for the art of war, can you transfer General Jiang to the old man's side?" ”
This is to let the donkey be his personal bodyguard, Jiang Donkey was greatly unhappy, and was about to speak, Sun Yuan: "Naturally, donkey, protect the elder." If something happens to the elder of the pavilion, he can't cut off your head? ”
In this way, the donkey was deprived of the right to go to the battlefield to fight, and Shao Wei, who had always been at odds with him, couldn't help but gloat: "It's good that you are born five big and three thick, but no one grabs the credit with the master."
。 ”
After the Ningxiang army buried the pot and cooked rice, they immediately set off overnight despite the heavy snowfall.
Along the way, the scout cavalry galloped back and forth, running non-stop, and constantly bringing the news from the front back to the Chinese army. Looking at their agile figures, Liu Ge Lao realized that the laziness of these knights during the day had disappeared completely, and was replaced by a fierce aura. I am also very satisfied in my heart, this is right, this is the Ningxiang Iron Army imagined by the old man.
After Tang Wenxing was sent to Lu Xiangsheng of the Tianxiong Army, the cavalry commander was temporarily concurrently held by Sun Yuan.
The news brought by the scout has hardly changed, except that there is no trace of the enemy in front of it, everything is as usual, the Jiannu on the side of Botou Town is still snoring, and only the dock is guarded by enemies.
The enemy also sent scouts, numbering about twenty, and it is estimated that traces of our troops have been discovered.
However, this time the enemy was cowardly and did not dare to take the lead in contact with our scouts. As soon as he saw a man, he turned his horse's head and ran.
With torches, the road was easy to walk, but because of the snow, it took a whole night to reach the ground.
In front of it is a dark building, looking at the scale, it looks like a small town in later generations, which is located on the west bank of the Universiade.
This is an important water transport transit station in the inter-river section of the Grand Canal, through which the Grand Canal makes a small bend and the water flow is gentle. Just like this, there is already ice on the water, and in the middle of winter in the Xiaoice River period, there is no way to sail.
More than a dozen boats, large and small, were leaning on the dock, and there were a dozen small black dots running around as if shouting something. Come to think of it, they have already discovered the brigade of the Ningxiang Army.
Sun Yuan: "The whole army is lined up, hurry up and rest, in a few moments, Jiannu will come out." ”
Liu Yuliang next to him asked curiously: "Taichu, if it's so difficult, aren't you afraid that Dongyi will defend Botou Town and not come out to fight with you?" ”
"Five thousand men and horses were so frightened by the two thousand Ningxiang troops that they didn't dare to come out to fight, is it possible? Jiannu is arrogant, they can't afford to lose this person. ”
