Chapter 189: Gambling
Wu Fanhui's decision was indeed gambling, but his gambling confidence did not come from his hot mind and impulsiveness, but from accurate analysis. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It is not once or twice to fight with the rogues, he has some understanding of the habits of the rogues, don't look at the large number of the rogues, their combat effectiveness is extremely low, and there is no military literacy, the number of people is huge, it can not become an advantage, but will become a drag, because after the tragic battle begins, some of the rogues are afraid and retreat, and the other rogues will swarm and retreat, and the impact and effect of this retreat is disastrous, that is, the rout, that is, the complete loss of military morale.
The rogue has no operational deployment, one shot changes a place, and the mobile combat is mainly to loot money, and they have no pursuit, and one day is counted as a day, which leads to no cohesion in their team.
And the confidence that prompted Wu Fanhui to make a gambling decision, there is the most important point, that is, more than 200 people from Qishan County, nearly two months have passed, Wu Fanhui found that these people's tactical literacy is indeed good, and they are also very familiar with war horses, and even in the process of training, there will be some tactical changes.
These people should be the elite of Liaodong, the absolute elite, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong, as for why they all went to Qishan County and what they encountered, Wu Fanhui has no need to get to the bottom of it.
There are more than 200 soldiers in Qishan County, plus more than 90 people under Li Yong, a total of more than 300 people, these people are absolute elites, everyone's combat ability is outstanding, as long as they can grasp it well when fighting, in the face of a group of rabble, even if the opponent has a large number, it is also possible to win.
The last point is that the soldiers are very fast, and when the rogue is caught off guard, he takes the initiative to attack, presumably the palm of the rogue such as Tianxing, and he will never expect to encounter the initiative attack.
A mountain col more than 30 miles away from Ma'anshan Village.
The topography of this col is somewhat peculiar, the road to the entrance and exit is a little narrow, but the middle of the col seems to be very open, and the peaks on the left and right sides of the col are gentle, and there is no steep place.
The cavalry of the Wu family's courtyard led by Wu Fanhui waited quietly in the mountain on the left side of the mountain col.
According to the information detected by the scouts led by Li Yong, Guo Tianxing, the One-headed Tiger, the Heavenly Dragon, and the Golden Winged Peng and their subordinates should have chosen to camp in this col and attack Mizhi County tomorrow, after all, the climate in the col is slightly better, and the peaks on both sides can block the whistling north wind.
At two o'clock, the sky was already dark.
At the entrance of the col, there was a firelight, and a group of people and horses began to enter the col, and the noisy sound immediately echoed in the col, and the people who entered the col were very casual to look around, no one thought of being vigilant, and several rogues on horseback entered the col, and after a circle in the col, they rode away from the col.
Soon, more and more people entered the col, and there were more torches.
There is no order, everything is disorganized, and there are a lot of people walking back and forth.
The ground in the col was flat, and some people began to choose a place, and once they had chosen a place, they spread hay underneath it, sat on top of it, and pointed at the other people who came as if it were their own.
These people were dressed in tatters, looking like Hanako, some of them were holding knives and guns, and many more were holding sticks and the like.
At that time, there were finally cavalry began to enter the col, but these cavalry were obviously not all the way, there was a clear distinction between them, as long as you looked closely, you can find that the people who entered the col were consciously divided into four piles, separated from each other by a certain distance, and the cavalry who came in were also heading towards their respective teams.
The cavalry were all wandering around the col, apparently choosing a place to camp, near the foot of the hill on the right, which was obviously the best place, so the four cavalry began to demarcate their respective areas, and some of them dismounted on horseback, and on top of the carriage that followed, they took down their tents, opened and laid them, and nothing else on the carriage moved.
The carriage also stopped at the foot of the hill on the right side of the col.
The people camping in the middle of the col have no tents, and several huge fires have been lit, and everyone obviously needs to rely on the fires to keep warm, otherwise in such a cold climate, I don't know how many kills will freeze to death in one night. As for those who are in poor health, they should pray to the Bodhisattva for their blessing and survive the cold of the night.
There were old men, women, and children in the procession, but when they were camping, they were surrounded in the middle of the col, and they were the closest to the fire.
At that time, the col gradually fell silent, and only a small number of people patrolled the fire, and were responsible for adding firewood to the fire to prevent it from being extinguished, and the rest of the people rested.
Wu Fanhui pinched his somewhat frozen hand and waved his arm vigorously.
Although he made a decision, although he had the belief that he would win, he would not take more than 400 people to rush directly to more than 10,000 Liukou, that would be too risky, even if he could win, it would be a tragic victory, and the most critical point was that the Liukou's palm and main force would leave behind the footmen, quickly evacuate, take away all the money and food, they would not suffer much loss, it was not a defeat in the battle, those homeless people and women and children who joined the team, it didn't matter if they were abandoned, anyway, there were homeless people everywhere, and they could be recruited on a large scale.
What Wu Fanhui wants to completely exterminate is the main force of the Liukou, and he wants to kill the Liukou's palm as much as possible, so that he can truly establish the prestige of the Wu family's guards, so that the Liukou from near and far will not dare to covet Mizhi County.
Li Yong and the others gathered around Wu Fanhui and did not speak.
They kept an eye on Wu Fanhui at all times, waiting for the order to attack.
Wu Fanhui originally planned to attack when he was in the hour, but he didn't dare to continue waiting, because the climate was getting colder and colder, he couldn't hold it anymore, if he continued to wait for nearly an hour, I don't know how many people would freeze, and he would not be able to fight hard when he charged.
"Tell the brothers, shoot all the bows and arrows."
On the hillside on the right, the sound of horses' hooves rumbled.
The ground inside the col was shaken.
The people inside the col were alarmed, but the first thing to come was the sound of screaming.
Countless bows and arrows were shot towards the tent at the foot of the mountain, and many bows and arrows pierced directly into the tent, and one after another screams suddenly appeared.
Wu Fanhui did not participate in the charge, he was self-aware, and it was better for him not to mix up in such a battle.
By his side, Wang Baofu and Du Weinian were left, and the rest of them all charged and killed.
In a row of dozens of tents, someone finally rushed out.
Several tents had already been set ablaze by the fire, which illuminated the foothills.
Many of the people who rushed out of the tent were hit far away by the galloping war horses and rolled to the ground, without even struggling, and more rogues who rushed out of the tent one after another were slashed by the cold and shining blades, and blood splattered out instantly.
The rogues in the middle of the col, no one thought of resisting, they shouted and ran around, some of them ran in the direction of the entrance of the col, which seemed to remind those who were still scurrying around like headless flies, to flee in the direction of the exit and entrance, and in a short time, the exit and entrance of the col were occupied by the crowding of rogues, and no one should think of being able to rush out.
Li Yong, Ma Jigang, Liu Fangheng and others, they never imagined that this was the case, no one resisted, all they saw were rogues running around, shouting to the heavens and the earth, old people, women and children, sitting on the ground, some wailing and crying, and some without any expression on their faces, like mummies.
Some of the rogues who fled on horseback in the direction of the entrance to the col raised their steel knives and attacked their own people who were crowded at the exit.
With such a good fighter, how could Li Yong and the others lose, and they began to attack and slaughter even more fiercely.
What Li Yong and others didn't expect was that the more than 200 people from Qishan County showed their overall tactical literacy at this moment, they were in a group of ten, divided into more than 20 teams, and rushed towards each tent respectively.
As for the homeless and the old and weak women and children in the middle of the col, no one paid any attention to them.
Wu Fanhui, who was on the hillside, looked at this scene, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly, Guo Tianxing, the one-headed tiger, the heavenly dragon and the golden-winged peng, the hands of the rogues, with such a rabble, also dared to attack Mizhi County, and also dared to come to spread wild.
Of course, the fight was so sharp, but also let Wu Fanhui see the combat effectiveness of more than 200 people in Qishan County, they did not panic at all, took the initiative to change the formation, and attacked every tent after scattering, because these Zhang Pu resting in it is the main force of the Liukou, once these people are exterminated, the rest of the people will completely lose their fighting spirit, and there is no difference from sheep.
Dewey Nian, who was beside him, had never seen such a tragic fight, his body trembled slightly, and his face was pale.
Wang Baofu didn't have any problems, he looked around nervously, to prevent a rogue from suddenly rushing up and threatening the young master's safety.
In less than half an hour, most of the rogues in the col fell to their knees, and they did not resist the whole time.
There were no rogues who escaped from the col on horseback, and the exit and entrance of the col were full of corpses, completely blocking the road, and it was impossible for the horses to cross it.
Sporadic fighting was still going on, and short screams appeared from time to time.
Wu Fanhui was already under the escort of Li Yong and others and came to the middle of the mountain pass.
