Chapter 112: The Big Picture Has Been Decided

As the colorful flags in the hands of the heralds waved, the accurate transmission of the Chinese general's orders reached every participating unit on the battlefield. Zhanxiong's unit, which was preparing to participate in the siege of the deserters on the mountainside, immediately changed course and rushed towards the left flank of the Turkic soldiers on the mountainside.

At the same time, the five departments of Wang Wu, who had received the order, had also begun to launch an attack on the other fugitives who were rushing towards the pass at the foot of the mountain.

On the opposite hill, the team that received the order to go down the mountain to suppress the bandits shouted loudly, like a torrent of steel, instantly covering the enemy troops in the valley who were scurrying in the valley. Amidst screams and pleas for mercy, the battle ended at breakneck speed.

After eliminating the fleeing bandits in the valley, the army under the mountain joined up with Wang Wusuo's department and immediately pursued the deserters who had fled to the Yangtze River Pass.

"Turning your hands into clouds and covering your hands into rain, it's really a good means!" Even on the two sides of the hostile side, the Turkic Huzhuor was still the commander of the Great Zhou army, and he admired it very much. He turned his head to look at the green forest bandits in the valley who were kneeling on the ground and raising their hands to surrender, turned their heads, looked at the Tsing Yi scholar not far above, took a deep breath, and said in admiration.

However, it was only for a moment, after all, the two sides were in a situation of non-stop. Hu Zhuoer was thinking more about how to kill the other party and cut off the other party's head. Escape with your brothers.

Just now, he was still thinking about the victory of breaking out of the encirclement and returning to the grassland. However, with the situation of the war, the fundamental surname changed. His own plan was discovered. Victory was already out of reach, and the only thing he was thinking about was how to survive.

"Warriors, rush!" Hu Zhuoer bit the tip of his tongue, tried to keep his mind clear, took a deep breath, summoned up his courage, shouted while holding his scimitar, and charged upward.

……

On the mountainside, Lu Heng accurately judged the changes in the battle situation and adjusted the army layout at any time.

Behind him, Wu Ningyuan stood there quietly. Looking at the scholar in front of him, he looked at the battlefield with a calm face, and commanded and dispatched with a heavy weight.

His eyes, which had been cloudy just now, had begun to become clear. The decadent expression on his face also disappeared with the change of the battle situation.

With a look of joy in his eyes, he looked at Lu Heng in front of him, who was calmly saying something to the herald. Touching his beard and nodded. Although his expression was forcibly calm, in his heart, he had already turned the river and the sea.

This person's accurate vision and precise grasp of the battle situation. Amazing dispatch of the bow and arrow battalion. Even Wu Ningyuan, who has a decades-long career as a horseman, is the first time he has seen him.

Moreover, looking at the indifferent smile on the scholar's face, as well as the unwavering eyes. It was as if everything was under his control.

What a wickedness!

Wu Ningyuan looked at Lu Heng with a smile on his face, and thought alone for a long time, but he couldn't find a suitable word. finally sighed, and secretly praised the word demon in his heart.

And Lu Heng was staring at the battle situation intently at this time.

He squinted his eyes as he looked at the Turkic soldiers who had outflanked him in three directions. Stretching out his hand, he pointed to the Turkic soldiers on the left and right, turned his head, and said to the two soldiers of the Ning Wangfu who were standing beside him: "Li Hu, Li Bao!" Bring fifty archers each of you and smash these two Turks for me!" ”

Li Hu and Li Leopard are the two best archery skills among Wu Ning's distant relatives. And it's also a brother. These two people, when they followed Wuning to the south and the north, because of their accurate archery methods, they were called Jebe by their comrades in the army with their names on the grassland, which means arrow clusters.

In the end, they left the army with Wu Ningyuan and became Wu Ningyuan's personal soldiers.

At this time, after hearing Lu Heng's order, the two of them nodded in unison, each with fifty archers, and headed in the direction of the left and right flanks of the Chinese army.

"Army, military division, me, us!" The infantry lieutenant in charge of the Chinese army's guard hesitated for a long time before he mustered up the courage and came up to ask a question.

From the beginning of the battle to the present, the military division has always used archers as the main attacking force. In this era, the regular infantry was left idle by him, except for the brother who had just ordered the opposite cliff to charge, the infantry of the Chinese army had never been used.

Looking at the brothers opposite, they easily swept away the remnants of the other party, and easily earned military merits. The lieutenant suddenly couldn't sit still, and stepped forward with a smile to ask for battle.

Lu Heng glanced at the captain, whose face was flushed because he was nervous, and said with a smile: "You are responsible for protecting the Chinese army camp, and it is also a major task. Don't worry, you'll have a chance to perform later! ”

"But! Strategist! The lieutenant blushed, and stepped forward to say something, but was blocked by Wu Ningyuan behind Lu Heng with a cold drink.

"On the battlefield, the order is forbidden! Xu Liang, do you want to disobey military orders? Wu Ningyuan didn't have a good temper like Lu Heng, seeing this big-headed soldier, he still wanted to go forward to ask for battle, he was immediately annoyed, glared at him, and scolded angrily.

After scolding Xu Liang for splitting his head and covering his face, Wu Ningyuan turned his head and looked at the front of the battle array, lined up in a row, the archers were constantly firing arrows. The black, locust-like rain of arrows whined and pressed downward.

Seeing this scene, even Wu Ningyuan, who had a military career for many years, was still shocked by the deafening sound of arrows breaking through the air, and his scalp was numb.

Bows and arrows, it turns out that they can be used like this?

Before leaving, the number of arrows brought by the archers was enough in Wu Ningyuan's opinion. But then, Lu Heng frowned and asked them to bring more, and if they couldn't take it themselves, they would hand it over to the infantry.

So along the way, the whole army was like an army of logistical supplies, with pots of feathered arrows on the shoulders of the infantry and on the backs of the horses.

At that time, both sergeants and lieutenants expressed disdain for Lu Heng's approach. After all, the real main force of the Great Zhou is still the foot pawn. Looking at the appearance of this little white face, is it to let the group of guys who can only hide behind and release cold arrows fight this battle?

Now, Wu Ningyuan glanced at the one-sided form on the battlefield, and finally understood why Yongzheng kept telling the archers to bring more arrows before setting off.

It turned out that he really wanted the archers to act as the main force in this crackdown on bandits!

And, looking at the current situation, it is still extremely successful!

In fact, what he didn't understand was that in the era of Lu Heng's previous life, with the popularization of intensive long-range firepower, the era of hot weapons also followed. Moreover, with the advent of the era of thermal weapons, the decisive factor in victory in war is no longer the infantry. It's the air-space power.

In Lu Heng's military planning career in his previous life, he was extremely partial to weapons of long-range firepower. Say, drones, missiles. And it's tried and tested.

Moreover, in that era, the glory of a war was actually more determined by the comparison of the proportion of casualties between the enemy and the enemy. The political axe would rather spend tens of billions of dollars more than risk the lives of a thousand soldiers to pledge the war. If we say that in an asymmetrical combat battle, our side suffers too many casualties, the political axe will be overwhelmed by the strong pressure of public opinion, and it may even be dissolved by the Congress. Therefore, the politicians of the previous life, whether for their own position or otherwise, were paranoid lovers of cutting-edge weapons. Among them, high-powered long-range weapons are their favorite.

After coming to this era, Lu Heng's first command. Out of the ideas and habits he has cultivated, he still uses the combat ideas of his previous life to command the battle of cold weapons in front of him.

Thankfully, in this era of long-range firepower, bows and arrows are still available. Even better, there were no archers on the other side.

"Uh, yes, lord!" After Xu Liang was yelled at by Wu Ningyuan, he suddenly became dumbfounded. After holding his fist and making a loss to Lu Heng, he retreated to his original position.

After hearing Wu Ningyuan's voice, Lu Heng turned his head, glanced at Wu Ningyuan, who had returned to normal, smiled, and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

Wu Ningyuan knew the meaning of his words, rolled his eyes, and snorted: "The old man has always been very good!" ”

Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "That's good, hello, I'm good, everyone's ......"

Uh, it's a bit like the advertising slogan of a certain kidney tonic brand!

Lu Heng, who was talking smoothly, felt that the words he had just said were very familiar, and after thinking about it carefully, it turned out to be an advertising slogan for a tonic that he had seen in his previous life.

Oh, I've almost forgotten about the past.

The cold wind with the smell of blood blew, Lu Heng sighed softly and said with a smile in his heart.

At this time, Li Hu and Li Bao, who had reached the left flank, had already led the archers to suppress the Turkic soldiers on the left and right flanks.

Most of the archers they brought over were crossbows. The bursting function of the crossbow machine played an amazing role in dealing with the Turks gathered on a mountain road below at this time. After the order was given, hundreds of arrows were like locusts, densely shooting towards the rushing Turkic soldiers.

After a humming bowstring trembling, the rushing Turkic soldiers froze. Before he could raise his head to take a look at the situation, he heard another sound of breaking the air.

The Turkic warrior who took the lead, Battle, heard the sound and fell to the ground. I just wanted to congratulate myself that I hadn't been pierced by the arrow, but I heard the muffled snorts and screams of the soldiers behind him, as well as the screams of the soldiers falling off the cliff after being hit by the arrow.

Battle was startled and looked back. Suddenly, the corners of his eyes were grinning, and he was extremely sad. The army, which had just been more than eighty people, turned out to be less than twenty people after two volleys.

In his heart, he forgot about the situation in his heart. Holding the scimitar, he jumped up and just wanted to shout to the samurai behind him. I suddenly felt a chill in my heart. It was dark in front of my eyes, and I didn't know anything.

As the crossbow machine continued to sound, dense arrows overwhelmingly pressed over. After another volley, the Turkic soldiers responsible for the charge on the left and right flanks were all annihilated.

In the blink of an eye, the situation on the battlefield has changed dramatically again. After the Turks on the left and right flanks were eliminated, the Turks, who were in charge of the main attack on the central army, became a lone army. Having lost the barrier between the left and right, they became a living target on the mountain road.

As the number of people gradually decreased, Hu Zhuoer, who took the lead, felt sad in his heart. When he looked up, he found that there were less than twenty people standing beside him.

He looked blankly at the Turkic warriors who had fallen on the mountain road, and his mind was in a trance. The scimitar in his hand couldn't hold it, and it fell to the ground with a clatter.

Lu Heng, who was standing not far away, saw the Turks who had already gone away, smiled, raised his hand and said to the herald: "Pass my order, bow and arrow retreat, Xu Liang, lead the infantry to charge, and surround them!" ”

Behind him, after hearing this, Xu Liang, who had been depressed, was as if he had heard the sound of heaven. Immediately, his expression was shocked, and he hurriedly ran forward, hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, the military advisor will guarantee to complete the task!" ”

The archers who had retreated to the side on the side, after hearing Xu Liang's words, couldn't help but roll their eyes, and scolded in their hearts: "You are really shameless." 100 people surround 20 people, and they still say that they can't complete the task? If this is all over, you can fucking jump off a cliff! Shame on you! ”

"That's right! That man! Before Xu Lianglin led the troops to charge, Lu Heng stopped him, pointed to the masked Turkic manpower with less than twenty people left, the thin middle-aged Han man who had been trembling sharply, and after taking a deep look at him, he said lightly: "Catch it alive!" ”
