Chapter 69 Pack Wins Attack (Part I)
Bao Ying has been sullen since he came back from the Qingjiao Sect Tribe, and has repeatedly raised his opinion to Feng Youcai through Meimei, if he doesn't move anymore, his bones will be stiff, how can he be a god of war. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Feng Youcai knew that these people were warfighters, and they would be uncomfortable if they didn't fight, and they didn't let him preside over the Mongols around the Zongbeili tribe last time, and now they are still making trouble, he has to fight with Hao everywhere, Feng Youcai is also happy to see this kind of healthy competition, and feels that only competition can be motivated, if they are all like abacus beads, if they don't move, then Feng Youcai doesn't like it.
In order not to discourage Bao Ying's initiative, it happened that Qianhusuo also needed a large number of cattle and sheep, so he agreed to Bao Ying's request and allowed him to go out and rob the Mongol tribe.
On March 15, Feng Youcai came to Hexi District through the system exit, and now Wudabao is under construction, and it is estimated that it will take more than one month to complete.
Feng Youcai didn't follow Bao Ying this time, he was indeed very uneasy, these people didn't want to die when they started a battle, and they forgot everything, which is why Feng Youcai never dared to let Bao Ying lead the troops alone.
In order to ensure the safety of Bao Ying, Feng Youcai particularly emphasized that he must not hit Dengkou City, and he must operate in this area in the west, and he must clean up the Mongols in this area, drive back their cattle, sheep and horses, and smash all their Ao Bao to pieces, so that this place will be used as a buffer zone between the Han and the Mongols from now on. If Bao Ying violates, he will never be given the opportunity to lead troops alone in the future, which is a very heavy punishment for a general, and he can't lead troops alone, which is more uncomfortable than killing him. Bao Ying is a package ticket, and he must obey the young master's arrangement, obey the young master's orders, and will never fight Dengkou City.
In order to give Bao Ying the strength to face the Mongol army, he was ready to send him 2,000 light cavalry and 1,000 heavy cavalry, but Bao Ying hated Hao Zhan and was unwilling to lead the heavy cavalry into battle. Feng Youcai had no choice but to tell him that all the cavalry would be mixed in the future, and without the charge of the heavy cavalry, the losses of the light cavalry would definitely increase, and if the losses were large, Hao Zhan would definitely laugh at you when he came back. Hao Zhan is not stupid, he knows the priority of the matter, and in order not to let Hao Zhan laugh at himself, he agreed to take the heavy cavalry, but only 500 people, and asked each heavy cavalry to be equipped with an ordinary war horse, otherwise the heavy cavalry will not be able to keep up with the actions of the large army. Feng Youcai also felt that his suggestion was very reasonable, so he agreed to Bao Ying's request.
At the same time, Feng Youcai is also considering whether the heavy cavalry will be equipped with an ordinary war horse in the future? This would increase the mobility of the heavy cavalry.
Feng Youcai once again emphasized the requirements for Bao Ying, not to fight through Dengkou City, the maximum time of this operation is 10 days, that article cannot be violated, Bao Ying agreed to let him go on the expedition.
Although it was already mid-March, the northwest area where Feng Youcai was located was still very cold, and in order to increase the mobility of the troops, Bao Ying refused the request to bring tents, and only brought dry rations for two days' march.
The scene of 3,000 horses acting together is still very shocking, this is also the first time Feng Youcai carefully observed so many cavalry acting together, the advantage of cavalry in today's era is not something that infantry can deal with, especially after the heavy cavalry and light cavalry are mixed, they can attack from afar, to outflank the enemy's rear road or cut off the enemy's supply line; It can be used in close combat, just surround it with archery, the enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and I chase, so that the enemy can not deal with it, and its strong mobility ability, the field is almost invincible.
This was the first time Bao Ying led his troops to the battle, and Feng Youcai personally sent him off, which made him feel more face-saving, and he was determined to grab more cattle, sheep and horses to come back.
Bao Ying rode proudly at the front of the team, sitting upright on the horse, looking like a steady general. After leaving Feng Youcai's sight, he immediately showed his original form and shouted loudly, "The hundredth team of the 1,000-man team will move forward 2 kilometers to explore the route for the troops." ”
After the 100-man team left, Bao Ying called the 3,000-person commander and asked, "Are you willing to make war merits?" Would you like to grab more cattle, sheep and horses to come back? ”
"Yes, General Bao, you can arrange it."
"Okay, sure enough, they are all good men with blood, and this time you are indispensable. I think so, let's not go to the interior of the desert, there are some small Mongolian tribes, in this season are also poor tribes who can't eat, we can't grab any good things, and waste so much effort, suffer such a big sin, it's not worth it, so I will lead you to rob along the Yellow River, but every time you rob, you must not let go of a Mongol, if we are exposed, we can only return, otherwise the Mongols will easily gather troops to wipe us out. Would you like to? ”
"Yes," all three replied at the same time.
"Well, since everyone is willing, let's keep grabbing until we get to the mouth."
"Yes, General Bao"
The commander of the heavy cavalry quietly asked Bao Ying: "General Bao, what if you grab the pass and let the young master know?" The young master said that he would not let you lead the troops in the future. ”
"Li Gang, you're a fucking coward, won't you let the young master know? Your heavy cavalry is small, then our light cavalry is full of pride, coming and going like the wind, dare to be responsible, rest assured, if something happens, I won't trouble you, but you must be mentally prepared to charge. ”
"Yes, General Bao, the heavy cavalry is not a bastard."
On the first day, it was planned to march 40 kilometers, with the Yellow River on the right and the desert on the left, and the road was very difficult to walk. The advantage is that there is no need to prepare water by the river, which reduces a lot of baggage. There are no more Mongol tribes within 20 kilometers, and the last time the Ulan tribes were occupied, the tribes within 20 kilometers were cleared by the way. If you eat, you either eat dry food for the march, or go to the front to rob the Mongol tribes and eat mutton. Bao Ying's plan was to eat dry food at noon, go to rob 1 tribe in the afternoon, and rob a large tribe tomorrow after recuperating his spirits.
At about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the day had already marched more than 30 kilometers.
At this time, a cavalryman ran in front, and with a wave of his hand, the troops stopped advancing.
The cavalry stopped in front of Bao Ying, and after beating his chest on his horse, he shouted: "General Bao, there is a Mongol tribe found 2 kilometers ahead, there are 15 yurts, about 100 people, the captain of the hundred people ordered me to come back and report to the adults, and ask for instructions on the next move." ”
"Well, you guys are doing a good job, leading the way in front, riding slowly, when the heavy cavalry is 1 mile away from the Mongol tribe, the light cavalry is surrounded by left and right, you can't let go of 1 Mongol, now change horses."
"Yes, Jingjun"
500 heavy cavalry were transferred from ordinary horses to armored horses, and ordinary horses were led by a detachment of light cavalry.
For a moment's charge, the heavy cavalry walked slowly in front, and the rest of the troops followed behind the heavy cavalry.
