Volume 8 Drunk and Lying on the Battlefield Chapter 484 Sparrow Battle
readx;?readx; Chapter 484: Sparrow Battle
Perhaps because of his background as an officer, Qin Lei has done a good job in 'not using suspicious people and employing people without suspicion'. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he only assigned action objectives to four squads...... lure the snakes out of their holes, but without interfering with their specific course of action. Of course, this is also inseparable from his full understanding of the quality of the officers leading the troops.
His Jingshan army was divided into five teams, in addition to the black-armored cavalry he led, Yang Wenyu, Huangfu Zhanwen and Shen Qing also led a detachment each, and these three people were completely competent in terms of qualifications and abilities. But the last army was jointly led by Shi Yong and Chang Yi...... Among these two, Shi Yong is not lacking in popularity, but he has never had the experience of leading alone; Chang Yi is experienced, but his prestige in the Jingshan Army is insufficient, so Qin Lei asked the two of them to join the army to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses and complete the task together.
When the Taiwei army camp was full of flames, Shi Yong and Chang Yi led their team to lurk under the mountain pass less than five miles north of Horseshoe Mountain.
"What should I do?" Shi Yong asked in a deep voice. He understands that his strengths lie in training, not in command. Although he is the chief officer, he still handed over the command to Chang Yi, and he escorted him in a low-key manner.
Chang Yi is also a general who has experienced ups and downs and experienced cold and warmth, and he is grateful for the opportunity for the prince to be reborn, so he also put away the arrogance of the past. When he treats others with a gentle attitude, he can feel Shi Yong's generosity even more, so the two are very compatible.
Smiling at Shi Yong, he said softly, "My lord, we have to wait." As he spoke, he explained: "The purpose of the prince is to attack and disturb the war, the number of people is not the key, the rhythm is the most important." ”
Shi Yong humbly asked: "I have heard the word 'rhythm' in class, but I am a little confused, and I always feel a bit mysterious. ”
"It's nothing mysterious," Chang Yi chuckled: "It's like when we eat, we have to stretch out our chopsticks first, pick up the vegetables, then collect the chopsticks, and eat the vegetables. And the cycle of these movements is called rhythm. If any of these links are disrupted, the rhythm is disrupted, and we can't eat. ”
Shi Yong nodded, and listened to Chang Yi continue: "For an army, there is a strict system of work and rest, when to start, when to eat, when to train, and when to rest, there are inherent rules, and this law is rhythm. Over time, this rhythm has become ingrained, and if we destroy it completely, the army will be impetuous, demoralized, hesitant, exhausted, and vulnerable. ”
Shi Yong said softly, "It seems that before the decisive battle, you should try to disrupt the enemy's rhythm. ”
Chang Yi bowed his head and said, "That's right." As he spoke, he used his horsewhip to guide the fire-lit mountain peaks: "The timing of the attack of the Fang Cai brothers' troops was just right, and it was launched just when the enemy army had just fallen asleep. In this way, the enemy's half-hour sleep will be completely ineffective, and the liver fire will rise, and the heart will be impetuous. Looking at the fire, it will probably burn for more than half an hour, and even if we don't attack again, they will be very tired tomorrow. ”
"Are we still attacking?" Shi Yong asked in a deep voice.
"To attack." Chang Yi said firmly: "Once is not enough to make it crazy. ”
"Do you want to go now?"
"No, now is the moment when the other party's vigilance and combat effectiveness are the strongest, and we can't get any benefits." Chang Yi shook his head and said, "After an hour, let's go and wake them up again." ”
After speaking, he pulled the military blanket and said to Shi Yong: "My lord, let's rest for a while." "In such dangerous areas close to enemy troops, sleeping bags are disabled.
Shi Yong shook his head and said, "You guys rest, I'll organize the sentry." ”
Chang Yi smiled at him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
After inspecting the sleeping soldiers, Shi Yong climbed up the hillside, wrapped in a military blanket, and quietly stared at the sparse loess plateau.
The stars in the sky shifted, and the fire in the distant Horseshoe Mountain gradually extinguished. Shi Yong felt that the time was almost up, so he turned over and slipped down the hill to wake up his subordinates one by one.
Stretching his waist, Chang Yi rubbed his face vigorously, and after he sat up, he found that the team had been assembled. With a knowing smile at Shi Yong, he led the team to touch the mountain.
Just as he was about to give the order to leave, he felt the ground tremble, and his face suddenly became strange. After a while, a group of cavalry was seen silently rushing seven or eight miles to the west.
"Ball! It's a step too late! Chang Yi patted the ground angrily, blew his beard and glared: "I don't know if I come first and then come!" ”
"What to do? Are we going to fight yet?" Shi Yong smiled bitterly: "The other party must be prepared now." ”
"Go, why don't you go?" Chang Yi sneered and said: "Wait for them to set off in half an hour, but don't rush forward, let's run around Horseshoe Mountain twice, just beat the gong and beat the drum." ”
I saw that the cavalry team of the same color as the night was running faster and faster, and in a moment they crossed the mountain where Changyi and they were hiding, and the destination was the Horseshoe Mountain in the south.
When they were less than two miles apart, the patrol of the Taiwei Army spotted them, the whistle blew again, and the eldest prince who had just slept in the camp jumped like thunder, shouting: "Don't let people sleep?!" "The soldiers hurriedly put on the armor of His Highness...... Although he slept in his clothes, he did not dare to rest in cold armor, otherwise he would have to freeze and get sick.
At this point, the wealthy Jingshan army had the advantage, and anyway, it was a drill, so they changed into leather armor, which not only protected the collision better than the iron armor, but also kept warm.
But the Taiwei Army is not so good, they are just wearing iron armor, and they love to wear it or not...... Of course, you have to wear it, although it is a military exercise, you can't collide with each other naked.
The soldiers hurriedly got up, cursed loudly, put on their armor, picked up their weapons and rushed out of the barracks, climbed onto the war horses that had also just woken up, and rushed out violently.
Almost an hour ago, the sparse rockets flew in, and hundreds of tents were set on fire, and the hateful nocturnal spirits were gone.
The soldiers didn't bother to pursue, so they hurriedly dismounted and went to put out the fire...... The quilt is still in there, that's all the belongings.
The angry Qin Li whipped all the night patrol soldiers, and then he ordered with a lingering anger: "Clear the deer out enough exits, and then all sleep in the open air, leaving two battalions on guard." He had noticed that the other party was not on a large scale, and it was just harassment. sat on the horse and waited for the other party to harass again.
He swore that he would knock the guy he caught upside down and beat him!
The front of the mountain was quiet for half an hour, the patrol whistle sounded again, and the sleeping soldiers got up one by one, although the prince was gracious and allowed them not to fight, but this man was in a mess, who dared to sleep? In case you are stepped on and hurt your waist and legs, are you responsible?
And those vigilant troops, listening to the deafening sound of gongs and drums, and the sound of explosions, just like more than half a year, couldn't help but be very excited, and said in their hearts: 'It seems that they are going to move seriously!' 'Who thinks that the other party is dry thunder and not rain...... The first two times he could rush to the front of the camp and release arrows, but this time he simply ran and screamed far away, and he was not afraid to summon the wolf.
"Your Highness, the last general asks for your life, go and expel those clowns who jump off the beam!" Captain Luo of the Eagle Yang Army on duty stepped forward to ask for battle.
"Nope." Although the eldest prince's face was like water, he did not let go and said: "This black light is blind, what if there is an ambush?" ”
"Yes...... We can't just sit idly by, can we? Captain Luo said with a hesitant face: "The other party is too unscrupulous." ”
"Let them make trouble!" Qin Li glanced at the Rising Star in the East and said in a deep voice, "I'll see how long they can make trouble." ”
Qin Li guessed correctly, when the east revealed the white of the fish's belly, and he could already see the outline of the four sides, the loess plateau became quiet again, as if no one had ever come.
“***!” Captain Luo scolded in a low voice and lowered his head angrily.
"Go back to sleep, they should be done." Qin Li said in a deep voice: "I'll talk about it in the afternoon." ”
Qin Li still didn't guess wrong, although the night was long and the sky was short, he still couldn't let all the five detachments of the Jingshan Army appear on the stage. Because of the cautious personality of the main general, the two detachments of Shen Qing and Yang Wenyu lurked in a distant place, and there was a disturbance on the loess plateau at night, which did not affect their rest.
When it was daybreak, the soldiers who had not slept well and had not eaten well got up in good spirits, and received an order from the squad leader: 'Capture the enemy patrol!' Although the two detachments, one south of Horseshoe Mountain and the other west of Horseshoe Mountain, coincidentally intended to do the same thing.
Speaking of the most wronged is the patrol of the Taiwei Army, the thousands of ravines on the loess plateau give the Jingshan Army the best barrier, and it would be good if the black light could guard the camp in place, how could it be controlled whether people came to attack or not.
But the eldest prince didn't talk to them about this...... Anyway, it's your fault that people attack you, and you will be punished! From the night patrol captain to the small soldiers, each of them received twenty lashes, and they had to continue patrolling at dawn.
In fact, in Qin Li's opinion, the other party has tossed for a night, and it is time to stop, so the patrol during the day mainly plays a deterrent role. So he sent this group of tired, painful, listless and tired soldiers...... Naturally, it was laughed at by the Jingshan Army.
When a patrol turned to a mountain pass, hundreds of horsemen with jujube sticks suddenly rushed out from behind. The sleepy-eyed patrol soldier was surrounded by the other party before he could react, and only then did a spirit wake up.
But those yellow, black and swarthy enemy troops had already rushed up like wolves, brandishing sticks and smashing their heads. The patrolmen hurriedly raised their shields to parry, but the other side was too numerous, and it had already become a siege, only to see a wave of sticks flying, and the patrolmen fell off their horses with a crackle, wailing......
In a few moments, all the patrols were knocked to the ground and obediently handed over the signs around their necks. At this time, the people were sincere, and they knew that if it was a real war, the other party's hands would have been replaced with knives and guns, and there would be no chance for them to wail on the ground.
An observer came out of the Jingshan army and said in a deep voice: "Who is the leader?" ”
A lieutenant got up from the ground, rubbed his arm, and said, "The last will be." ”
"In this confrontation, all eighty members of your army were killed, sign and confirm." The observer handed him a hardboard with paperwork stuck in it, and said kindly, "It's okay to press the fingerprint." ”
Captain Pi smiled bitterly and said, "The last general is still literate. So he signed the paper, and at the end he was unwilling to ask, "None of them died?" ”
"You dragged down five plates." The observer didn't raise his head and said, "From now on, within eight hours, you must rush to the containment point, otherwise your casualties will be doubled." ”
The lieutenant nodded in frustration, beckoned his men to get up, and helped his wounded brother on his horse, and headed straight to the east.
The same scene happened frequently on the loess plateau, and by the time the prince got the news, more than half of the 1,000 patrols had been lost.
Qin Li didn't know what it was to be angry, and weakly said to the captain who came to report the news: "Order the patrol team to shrink and ensure the safety in front of the mountain, and wait until after noon to make plans." ”
After the sun turned westward, Qin Li personally led an army of 30,000 to sweep on the loess plateau, but the small detachments of the Jingshan army fled one after another, afraid that the old nest behind him would change, and Qin Li did not dare to chase away, so he had to watch the opponent flee away. But as soon as they went back, the Jingshan army came up again, and when they came out again, the Jingshan army ran away again, and the mung bean flies were annoying.
If they ignore it, the Jingshan army will frantically attack the patrol, and if the whole army shrinks and does not even send the patrol, the outside of the camp will beat gongs and drums and release cold arrows, which is annoying.
Especially at night, the more arrogant this attack becomes, to the point that a swarm of ants is attached, and it is clear that it is a passive defense of bullying the other party.
The Jingshan Army gave full play to Qin Lei's 16-character mantra of 'the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, the enemy is stationed and disturbs me, and the enemy is tired and I fight'.
After five days of going back and forth, the Taiwei Army, who had made up his mind that the tiger would not come out of the hole, finally couldn't stand it anymore......
"Your Highness, are we just going to be slaughtered like this?" After they couldn't bear it anymore, the group of people surnamed Li of the Tiance Army rushed to the big tent angrily to question, although they obeyed him according to the military order, they were actually not very interested in this young master. In addition, I didn't sleep well last night, and I have a stomach full of grievances to vent.
Qin Li put down the military book in his hand and said lightly: "Did you come in and report?" ”
"Never!" Li Hu glared at the bull's eye, and said: "If the young master can't do this boss, he can let our Li family do it, don't stand in the pit and don't ......" Seeing Qin Li's cold eyes, he didn't dare to say the last two words.
Glancing at Che Yinguo, who was sitting at the bottom, Qin Li said officially: "General Che, what should I do with trespassing on the Chinese military tent?" What should I do if I insult a manager? ”
Che Yinguo laughed dryly and said, "According to the law, it should be beheaded." Afraid that His Highness's second pole would come up, he hurriedly added: "However, the victory in the military exercise will be rewarded lightly, and of course the offense should be punished lightly." ”
But what kind of Tiance generals such as Li Bao and Li Biao are purely a group of martial artists, how can they understand Che Yinguo's hard work, but they become more and more intense: "If Young Master Biao doesn't let us send troops today, then we will act on our own!" ”
The eldest prince was still not impatient, and asked without being salty: "How should the coercive boss be punished?" How should misdeeds be punished? ”
Che Yinguo gave the group of Qiu Ba a look vigorously, and said with a sweat on his head: "Your Highness is angry, these bastards are used to being unobtrusive, you just have the right to fart." ”
"Come on, arrest these villains who trespassed on the tents of the Chinese army, insulted and coerced the commander, and plotted against each other, and hung them all upside down." Where did the eldest prince listen to him, slammed the table and shouted.
The guards rushed up with a hula and were about to make a move.
"Who dare?" The beasts of the Li family are not vegetarians, and with a wave of their hand, they summoned the pro-soldiers outside the tent in, and they were not afraid of the pro-soldiers of the king of Wuyong at all.
Che Yinguo and Luo Yun, who rushed over after hearing the news, hurried over to make peace with the mud, lest there be infighting.
Chang Yi's impetuousness after the rhythm was disrupted seems to have finally appeared.
