Chapter 57: The Afghan Army

"Well, the military appearance can be called neat, and the temporary change is also passable! No wonder Wu Buhua would die at their hands! "The Privy Council also knew that the Azuo army Daru Hua Chi He took his mount and looked at the hill five hundred paces away with his hands on the pergola, while tasting his head.

From the time the scouts of the two sides met on the bank of the canal to the time when he led the cavalry to chase here, it was only half an hour. However, in this short period of half an hour, the Red Turban thieves chose a terrain that was relatively favorable to the infantry, and used the extremely ugly chicken cart to swing a breast wall along the mountainside, which is really commendable.

"Since Zhu Eighty-one dares to claim the reincarnation of Maitreya Buddha, he must have read a few books and dabbled in military strategy!!" The deputy commander of the Azuo Army made Duo Erhei step forward and echoed with a smile.

"Exactly, exactly! Among the 100,000 ant thieves, you can always find one or two knowing soldiers! The two Qianhu Balu and Baoli in the team also took their mounts and nodded lightly to the rebels on the hill in the distance.

After running along the canal for hundreds of miles, they finally caught this ant thief who dared to flow to the north of the Yellow River to fight the grass valley, how could they not feel gratified? You must know that the top and bottom of the Azuo army are all cavalry with one person and two horses. Best for Wild Rush Kills. If you let this thief retreat to the muddy land south of the Yellow River. The difficulty of annihilating it in one fell swoop will increase several times out of thin air, and the thief reinforcements killed from Xuzhou City will also make everyone unable to guard against it.

But now it was much simpler, although the leader of the thief army, Zhu Eighty-one, brought the team to the small hillside. However, the steepness of the hill could only have some effect on the horse's sprint, but it was far from the point where the horse could not run up. And this place is still ten miles away from Xuzhou, and there is a Yellow River in the middle. Even if Sesame Li gets the news, it will be a day or two later for him to come to the rescue, and these two days are enough for Ah Zuojun to wipe out Zhu Eighty-one and his ant thieves twenty times, and the way will not be the same every time!

The other centurions and brand leaders of the Azuo Army are also veterans of marching and fighting. Seeing that the enemy had set up a breastwork on the dirt mountain, he jumped off his mount with his brothers without the orders of his superiors. He took off the package from behind the saddle of the spare war horse, took out the well-made iron armor, and slowly put it on his body. Then he led the mount and walked slowly in a small area near the handsome banner, comforting the stiff muscles and bones that had been stiffened by riding the horse for a long time, and at the same time accumulating body for the war horse.

Some soldiers, who were particularly pitiful of their livestock, took the opportunity to take out the fried soybeans from their bags and hold them to their mounts, allowing them to enjoy them slowly. They were all born warriors, having served under the tent of Ögedei Khan since their great-great-grandfather's generation. Then he followed Meng Ge Khan to conquer Sichuan, accompanied Kublai Khan to conquer Ali Buge and Li Pu, and followed Prime Minister Boyan to Jiangnan, Lin'an, and Yangzhou. The ancestors of some people followed Zhang Hongfan and forced the last heir to the throne of the Great Song Dynasty into the sea. It can be described as a glorious war and a glorious history.

In the past two decades, although the main strength of the Afghan army has been spent on the mutual tilt between the Mongolian nobles, its combat effectiveness is still among the top five in the entire Great Yuan Empire. It's just that the number of soldiers is really thin, and the two armies on the left and right together are only more than 6,000 people, and they can't complete a big battle alone. Therefore, the imperial court was reluctant to use this force as a last resort. If they move, they will also use good steel on the blade, and let them serve as the vanguard of hundreds of thousands of troops.

As the Daru Huachi of the Left Army, He Gang also cherishes the honor that his ancestors exchanged for blood and water. Light yì is reluctant to lead his subordinates to take risks, unless there is a strict order from above, or absolute certainty.

Today's situation falls into the latter category. Originally, the Azuo army was ordered by the imperial court to move south along the canal, from Pizhou to Bianliang, and joined the 200,000 troops waiting there. However, when passing through Yutai, Daluhua Chihe suddenly heard a report from a local Han official that there was a red turban thief with a number of less than 2,000 who was swaggering to collect supplies on the shore of Shanyang Lake, so he hurried over.

With 3,000 cavalry to exterminate less than 2,000 ant thieves, Daru Hua Chihe didn't see any risk. In addition, there was a more important factor that prompted him to make up his mind, that is, the red turban ant thieves in front of him had just ransacked Wujiazhuang, which owned a mine, and also "extorted" more than a dozen wealthy dock forts around. The gold and silver in hand are so soft that they can't take it, and they need to be pushed back by a convoy!

This kind of thing is not only good at the heroes of the green forest. As the Azuo Army, Daru Hua Chihe is also proficient in this. And after exterminating this group of meager ant thieves, he can still take the head of the man around the victimized dock fort with great fanfare. I believe that those bitter masters will be grateful to Dade for giving him another generous gift, so that he can get double the harvest at once.

There is no risk, and there is a huge profit, such a good thing, a fool would refuse?! Therefore, after the traces of the current ant thief, he immediately left the large ship transporting grain and grass materials and the 4,000 auxiliary soldiers who accompanied the army on the canal wharf. Then he led his cavalry to chase after him at a gallop.

So far, a qiē has been as perfect as it was estimated in advance. The ant thieves were really reluctant to leave the gold and silver they had snatched and scattered for their lives, but were taken to a barren mountain by Zhu Bayi and tried to resist stubbornly. Judging from the rut marks left on the ground, most of the chicken buses are very heavily loaded. It is absolutely impossible to pretend to be food, leather and other frivolous things. Just grab a dozen or so vehicles, and you can double the cost of this expedition.

"My lord, do you want your subordinates to take two hundred-person teams, detour back to the mountain, and block the retreat of the red turban thief?!" Just as He Wu was excitedly estimating the final gains of this battle, Zuo Qianhu came to his ear and smiled yì.

The number of red turban thieves was only half of that of the Azuo army, and they were still mounted on foot in the field, and it was a matter of time before they were defeated. If you detour behind them in advance and block the way out, you can catch them all. There will be many benefits for showing off the military might of the Azuo Army and for the future career of the generals who lead the battle.

But Daruhua Chihe is not very interested in this building that can be the icing on the cake. glanced at Qianhu and shook his head slightly, "No, leave them a glimmer of hope, so that they won't fight us to the death." No matter how fast you can run on two legs, how fast can you go? Besides, the surrounding fortresses have just been blackmailed by them, and after seeing the deserters, how can they not take the opportunity to take revenge?! ”

"If the rout is going to attack the fortress?"

"Stupid, the rout army is going to attack the fortress, let's just follow them to exterminate them and save the people from fire and water!"

"Your Excellency is wise!" Zuo Qianhu scolded Qianhu loudly, urged his mount, and went to inspect the soldiers under his command. Daru Hua Chi He jumped off his horse and walked slowly around the Shuai Qi on foot. It will take some time for the soldiers to adjust to their best condition. Taking this opportunity, he can also take a closer look at the opponent's camp and look for more weak points to come out, so as to determine the strategy of attack.

After only a few steps, he instinctively sensed some kind of dangerous aura. Swift shifted his legs, and in a way that was extremely disproportionate to his fat size, he hid himself behind the butt of his mount.

"Protect your lordship!" The captain of the pro-army, Mormont, immediately shouted, and with a dozen ironclad warriors, they pounced on them with their shields held high, shielding him and his big food BMW from the wind and rain. However, it was very embarrassing that there were no crossbow arrows flying at all, and there was no sound of any heavy objects falling to the ground. The ant thief on the opposite hillside just let out a slight laugh, and then continued to rest when he should rest, and continued to drink water when he should drink, as if he was watching the Jianghu artists play monkeys, and his voice was full of banter.

"Let's spread out, even if it's a bed crossbow, it won't be able to hit five hundred steps!" Daru Hua Chi He's face was red with laughter, and he pushed everyone away, and walked out from behind the shield.

It was obviously a false alarm just now, the red turban thief came north of the Yellow River this time just to fight the grass valley, and it was impossible to bring such a bulky weapon as a bed crossbow. But what's that long thing behind the wall? He's gaze finally fell on the shiny tubular object in the Red Turban Army camp. This must be the thing that made me feel in danger just now. There is no resemblance to a bed crossbow, and with such thin arms, it is impossible to be a trebuchet.

"It's a pity that it's too far away!" In the camp of the Red Turban Army, Zhu Eighty-one gently put down his gun and shook his head regretfully. This divine weapon, which cost him months of painstaking efforts and dozens of taels of gold, had a maximum effective range of about one hundred and fifty to two hundred steps. No matter how far away it is, even if it can hit the target, it can't break the iron armor, so it can only scare the other party.

"General, you can't always pin your hopes of victory on one or two special weapons!" Seeing that Zhu Bayi was always circling around carrying guns and artillery when he was accumulating his body, Ivanov couldn't help but remind him.

Recently, this guy has relied on selling various advanced technologies he has seen before to the Xuzhou Left Army, and the gold he has earned has been calculated by catties. Therefore, the loyalty to Zhu Eighty-one also increased proportionally with the increase in the weight of gold. I always hope to accompany the latter to go further, and the gold I earn can buy a marquis with a territory in Europe.

"Well, you're right. The key to victory is the person who has the weapon, not one or two weapons. Zhu Bayi quickly answered, and then threw down the stunned veteran ruffian and Xu Hongsan and others, and strode towards the bronze cannon.

Anyway, he has memorized military books for half a year, from "Sun Tzu" to "Wei Gong Asks Right" to "Three Strategies" and "Liutao", all the military books that can be bought on the market, whether they are genuine or fake, he has swallowed and flipped through them. Coupled with the kung fu of the 21st century's bubble forum, throwing out a sentence casually can be called a soldier's reasoning. The question is, how can you put what is on paper into practice?! To be honest, apart from rolling with advanced weapons, Zhu Eighty-one didn't know any other tricks at all! And the only trick he learned was from a strategy game, and he didn't know how effective it would be in the real world.

Regardless of the eyeballs that fell behind him, he quickly corrected the position of the three bronze cannons, and at the same time ordered with his mouth like popping beans, "These two guns use scattered bullets, and the highest one uses solid bullets." The cavalry moved too fast, and it would have been easier to hit the target with scattered bullets than with live ammunition. Hong San, send a few more people over in a while, and cover both sides of the copper cannon with shields. lest Ah Tartar hurt Master Huang and them with his bow and arrows. Master Huang and his sons have never been on the battlefield, so when they really fight, they must protect their father and son first."
