Chapter 367: Skirmishes
As they spoke, the soldiers in the mound moved out rows of horses, wooden fences, and tattered household belongings, and blocked the path into the village. From this point, it can be seen that this Guan Xuan knows some geography and the art of war.
However, at the moment of the great enemy, these soldiers all had a look of anxiety and fear on their faces. But there is no trace of the courage of the warriors of the Ningxiang Army. Sun Yuan's heart froze inexplicably, and he felt that something was wrong.
When Guan Xuan heard Sun Yuan's question, he smiled bitterly, and still replied in a clear voice: "Back to the general's words, although there are many non-commissioned officers in our army, they are all new soldiers. ”
Sun Yuan looked puzzled: "Recruits, my Ningxiang Army doesn't seem to have any recruits, right?" ”
Guan Xuan: "If you go back to the general, you won't have it now." Didn't the general ask me why I was here just now, because recently Jiannu entered the Kou, and there are many displaced people in the Gyeonggi area, which is a good opportunity for our army to recruit new soldiers
。 General Shao Weishao, a guerrilla commander of the Bohai Institute, had already started to do this three days ago, and had recruited exactly 100 recruits today. Guan Xuan received an order from General Shao yesterday and asked me to send 100 military uniforms and equipment to them to change their clothes and bring them back to the Bohai Institute. But I didn't want to, and I just happened to meet the general. ”
Speaking of this, Guan Xuan's face was anxious: "General, these 100 people were just outcasts a few days ago, a group of rabble, pulling out to compete with the enemy's cavalry, purely to send them to death." ”
Hearing Guan Xuan say this, Sun Yuan took a breath of cold air: I see, no wonder I didn't see the soldiers in this mound just now.
That's right, this group of people used to be ordinary people, and now they are pulled out purely to serve the enemy.
Then, there is only one way to go.
Looking up into the distance, about a mile away, the twenty cavalrymen, estimated that their horses were also tired, and they all stopped, took off the water bladders from their saddles and fed them. There were also two scouts running around outside the pier on horseback, probably trying to reconnoiter the enemy inside the pier. (Marshmallow offers Txt free download)
If nothing else, after a pot of tea, when Jiannu finishes feeding the horses and raises enough strength, he will be killed in the pier.
Sun Yuan asked again: "Captain Guan, let me ask you, how far is it from the nearest reinforcements waiting for us, and when will they be able to arrive?" ”
"General rest assured, there is a fire road pier twenty miles away from my pier, and there are more than 200 people there, all of whom are old soldiers and fierce generals in the Ningxiang army. At most, they will be there in two hours. When the time comes, it will be the death of this group of slaves. "It is worthy of being a storyteller, this voice is clear and crisp, and it instantly spreads throughout the entire fire road pier.
"Ah, there are more than two hundred veterans over there." Sun Yuan was pleasantly surprised. But at this time, he was stunned in his heart, two hundred people, this is already one-tenth of the strength of the Ningxiang Army, how can he, as a commander, not know the transfer of so many men and horses? Something is wrong!
"Ah, it's great to have reinforcements
! ”
"Great, great, saved!"
The soldiers all had relieved smiles on their faces.
As for Dafang, Xiaomao and others, they cheered even more: "Great, this group of Tartars deceived people too much just now, and when the elite of my Ningxiang Army arrives, they will definitely let them know how miserable the end of provoking the master is!" ”
But at this time, Guan Xuan put his mouth to Sun Yuan's ear, and said hurriedly in a voice that could only be heard by the two of them: "General, there are only three people in the nearest pier to us." This beacon fire burned all the way, and when the reinforcements from the Bohai Institute arrived, I was afraid that it would be tomorrow. ”
The expression on Sun Yuan's face condensed, and he turned his head to look at Guan Xuan.
Old man Guan nodded slightly.
In an instant, Sun Yuan understood that what Guan Xuan said loudly just now was to calm the army's heart. This old man has a bit of strategy, and his brain is really bright.
But now the key is how to withdraw the troops.
The fortifications here are in disrepair, and it is estimated that they will not be able to stop the elite pair of Manchu Baya soldiers.
Killing out is equivalent to sending you to death, but you can't defend it, and there are no reinforcements, so it's a big trouble.
Sun Yuan's heart was in chaos, and he couldn't stop taking a deep breath, trying his best to calm himself down.
In front of me, there are new recruits everywhere. I have to say that Shao Wei did a good job, these hundred or so people are all tall northerners, the new mandarin duck jacket on his body is very majestic, the spear in his hand is also of the highest quality, and the tip of the spear is shining dazzlingly in the sun. This group of people had all suffered from military disasters before, and almost all of them had relatives who died under the sword of Jiannu. Moreover, they are all displaced people whose families are ruined, otherwise, it would be impossible to come to Bohai to serve as soldiers and eat food. Looking at the Qing soldiers outside, everyone's eyes were full of hatred.
If Sun Yuan is given two months, they will definitely be able to train them to be brave warriors. Unfortunately, it's too late now.
I looked at the spears that lined up, and then at the mess at the mouth of the pier that looked like a ruined village, and at the path into the village. Sun Yuan's heart moved, and he felt that the scene in front of him was so familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere.
"Yes, I must have seen it...... I remembered......"
A plan popped up in Sun Yuan's heart, and he hurriedly asked Guan Xuan: "Old Guan, can this recruit team choose officers?" ”
Guan Xuan: "For the time being, there is no officer to lead the team, but it is also arranged with ten people as an ancestor, led by a team leader."
。 After returning to the Bohai Institute, it will be broken up and reorganized...... What does the general mean? ”
Sun Yuan: "What do you think I mean?" ”
Guan Xuan's face turned red excitedly: "General, it's better to beat his mother!" ”
Sun Yuan didn't expect this half-old man to dare to fight so much, and he really couldn't see him last time: "Lao Guan, immediately recruit a few captains, I have a plan." If it's implemented well......"
He looked at the Jiannu outside, gritted his teeth and said, "Maybe, we can keep this group of Jiannu here." If we don't kill them all, none of us will be able to leave. ”
Next to him, Xiao Mao snorted lightly: "The general is going to fight with Jiannu, that is the elite Bayala army." ”
Dafang snorted: "It's not easy to use any tooth army, don't forget, we are the Ningxiang army, and we have never been afraid of anyone." General, let me be the striker and take the lead! ”
Sun Yuan looked at Dafang with a smile: "You want to be a striker?" ”
Dafang puffed out his chest and tried his best to make a mighty appearance.
Xiao Mao and another half-grown child also shouted: "General, I'm no longer a child." Since he is the general's bodyguard, he is going to fight. If we hadn't entered the fire pier just now, we would have to sacrifice our lives with Jiannu. Could it be that because we are still minors, the butcher's knife of the Tartars will be able to spare us? ”
Time was pressing, Sun Yuan didn't talk nonsense, and nodded: "Okay, you immediately go down and take up the position of the captain of the ten-person team, and listen to my orders." "That's right, these guards are going to go to the battlefield in the future, and in the national war, the nation is in danger, and no one can stay out of it.
Moreover, the ancients matured early. Among these four people, Dafang will turn sixteen in two months, the other three are all in their early fifteens, and in the Ming Dynasty, they all had biological children at the age of twelve. In the eyes of people in this era, they are already adults.
"Yes, General!" The faces of the four older children were excited.
"But, Xiao Fang and Yu Xiang, you go into the house." Sun Yuan pointed to a wooden house next to him.
"Into the house?" Dafang and Xiaomao both shouted at the same time
。
Sun Yuan: "Yu Xiang, you are injured and have no way to fight." ”
Dafang disagreed: "General, Yu Xiang was injured and couldn't fight with Jiannu, but I wasn't shot by anyone, how could I be driven into the house, in the future, others will ask about this battle, ask me how many Jiannu I killed, how can I answer, how will I see people in the future?" ”
Sun Yuan: "Xiao Fang, listen well, your archery skills are good." Wait a minute, I'll put a few Jiannu cavalry into the mound from time to time. If others can't stop him, that's when the bow and arrow in your hand come into play. This is the key to today's battle, remember, remember! ”
Seeing that Sun Yuan said solemnly, Dafang immediately became happy: "Yes, I will never live up to the trust of the general." ”
After speaking, Dafang pulled Yu Xiang, ran into the wooden house in a hurry, went directly to the attic in the house, and immediately stared at the window at the only road at the pier mouth under the house.
saw that Sun Yuan had already gathered Xiao Mao and the ten captains together, talked for a long time, and made a passionate speech.
The dozen or so men, whose faces were flushed, screamed loudly, pulled the team to the junction, and moved the rejected horses away, leaving only a road for one man and one horse to pass. Then they all crouched down and hid behind.
For a time, there were people everywhere.
"General Sun, what is this doing?" Yu Xiang couldn't help but ask.
Xiao Mao: "Don't open your mouth, the general does things, how can you know." But rest assured, the general has never lost a battle since he led his troops, and this one is no exception, so wait and see. ”
Dafang put the quiver on the floor, drew one and put it on the bow, and there was no expression on his face.
"Yaaaaaa The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and twenty Jiannu cavalry shouted loudly, waving the weapons in their hands and rushing towards the pier.
Because the road is narrow, twenty horsemen are drawn into a long line.
Although there are not many twenty Baya soldiers, as soon as the war horses run, the whole world is full of rumbling horses' hooves, but there is an indescribable majesty.
A skirmish begins.
