224, limestone village
Ye Chu followed Di Jiang to learn the art of scouts, but when they went out, there were only four array teenagers, and the real main force of scouts was still Zhou Fu's old brothers.
Although some of these old brothers are unreliable, there are also those who dare to fight to the death. Especially after arriving in Diqiu, many people got a house and a fixed salary, so they moved their families over, and they were determined to die for the Zhou family's father and son.
Therefore, when the scouts on the two sides met, the Koreans encountered not only cutting-edge young men like Ye Chu and Li Bao, but also veterans who had fought countless times with the Western Xia scouts in the west.
Tuo Junjing listened to the report of the scout who fled back with a gloomy face.
"It's not like a bandit, but like a Jurchen scout...... Could it be the forbidden army of the Song Kingdom? He was half right.
This discovery made his heart heavier, and he wanted to report the matter to Li Ziqian, but he only picked up the pen and wrote a few words, and then he froze again.
Li Ziqian's attitude has been very clear, he must fight quickly, even if he persuades again, there is no point.
Tuo Junjing could guess why Li Ziqian was like this, he was close to monopolizing the imperial platform, and it was impossible for him to leave the center of Kaijing for a long time, and at the same time, it was impossible for the Northwest Frontier Army to leave the west for a long time.
“****!” Thinking of this, Tuo Junjing named a general.
In response, his face was full of beards, but he was arrogant: "What does the general command?" ”
"Five miles to the east, there is a mountain, where the Song people set up a stockade, and there are about 200 people guarding the village. I'll give you a thousand men, and you go and take that stockade!" "Takujun Kyo Road.
Although this village is some distance from the avenue, if it is not uprooted, more than 200 Song people in the village may be killed at any time. Although there are not many people, if they are caught off guard, it is still easy to cause chaos to the Goryeo army. Therefore, Tuo Junjing decided to take every step of the way, and first uprooted the four or five villages established by the Song people around Yayue Mountain.
Receiving the order, he attacked a small village of 200 people with 1,000 people, and he felt that there was no problem. But Tuo Junjing didn't dare to take it lightly, he sent ****, which was actually a test to see the reaction of the Song people. If the Song people reinforced, then he would find a way to bite the Song people's reinforcements, and at the same time urge Li Ziqian's main force to come up and fight a decisive battle outside the battlefield preset by the Song people.
Now what he is waiting for is the reaction of the Song people.
"The enemy army is attacking the limestone village?" Zhou Quan soon got the news.
The so-called war is often triggered by many such small battles, Zhou Quan looked at Wu Yang, and Wu Yang said: "This is a temptation." ”
"If he wants to test, I'll let him test it, march in, and attack the enemy striker!" Zhou Quan ordered.
Except for the few who remained behind, the army of the Governor's Palace can be said to have poured out of the nest and directly attacked the front of Tuo Junjing. After learning the news, Tuo Junjing was stunned at the time, he had never seen someone who didn't want to die, but he had never seen such a fight, not even his own base camp?
"That being the case, go straight to Yayue Mountain, ask for help from the rear, ask Jun Bojia to send people over, order the **** to step up the attack on the village, if you can capture the village, you will defend the village, and when I break the Yayue Mountain, the thief army will collapse!" Tuo Junjing made a quick decision.
And beside Zhou Quan, Dong Changqing's face was as famous as his name at this time, and he was a little blue: "Ming Gong, will this be a bit risky?" ”
"I ordered Lu Hai to guard the limestone village, and He Tu to guard the Chinese army, I know very well that the two of them are not as enterprising as Li Bao and Ye Chu, but they are still too good to stick to! The key to this battle is whether the two of them can hold it, if they can hold the limestone village, I destroy the Korean forward, then the Koreans are afraid of my reinforcements, so they can only retreat, on the way, maybe I still have a chance to win. I have great confidence in both of them! ”
In the limestone village, Lu Hai, who had high hopes for Zhou Quan, had a ring-headed knife hanging from his waist, licked his lips, and looked at the enemy below, revealing a hint of excitement.
Because it is a temporary village, although the limestone village has a favorable location, it only uses a wooden fence and gravel to pile up a low wall, and at this time there is a fault on the low wall, and there are more than 20 corpses lying around.
The remains of the Goryeo and Song people have been dragged back to the back waiting to be buried after the war.
"The goryeo dog is coming again!" Beside him, a Song man shouted.
Needless to say, Lu Hai had already seen that the Goryeo people who had just retreated had regrouped and rushed towards the stockade again.
In fact, the battle situation was not very fierce, and in the previous few times, the Koreans were trying to attack, and the stockade only relied on condescending bows and crossbows to drive the other party down. The casualties on both sides were not serious, but only when the other side had an envoy arrive, the enemy general began to attack with all his strength, and the first blow broke the wooden fence on the periphery.
It's a pity that there are not enough bows and crossbows, if the number of bows and crossbows is enough, Lu Hai feels that he can easily hold it.
"Pile up the corpses of the Koreans, plug the gap, and prepare for battle!" Lu Hai ordered.
After experiencing the Battle of Pengcheng, the Battle of Lashan and the Battle of Jeju, Lu Hai was by no means the first brother on the battlefield, so when he gave the order, he completely followed Zhou Quan's requirements: steady, calm, decisive, and did not hesitate at all.
The corpses of the Koreans were piled up into a low wall to block the gap, which was a deterrent to the Koreans who attacked again.
However, the **** war's knife was more terrifying than this shock, so after half a cup of tea, the Koreans climbed up again.
"Kill!"
At this time, the bow and arrow were already difficult to work, so Lu Hai raised the shield in one hand and the ring head knife in the other, shouted loudly, and rushed forward first.
Beside him, more than 30 Song soldiers, almost side by side with him, also raised their shields and pushed forward, like moving mountains, slamming out the Goryeo who poured in through the gap in the fence.
The blood of a Goryeo was splashed on Lu Hai's face, and Lu Hai didn't even have time to erase it, because behind this, a Goryeo armor appeared!
"There are a lot of Koreans, and if you give these armorers a firm foothold and tear the gap wider, then more Koreans will come up...... Da Lang paid me with a heavy responsibility, how could I have it, I just died and repaid, insulting Da Lang's knowledge of people, wouldn't it be impossible to die? ”
Loyalty to Zhou Quan is the first priority of the array of young people, plus the young people are relatively simple, thinking that Zhou Quan raised them to teach them, and there is a good salary for them to serve their families, in terms of ethics at this time, it is their duty to serve Zhou Quan to the death.
Therefore, when Lu Hai saw that the other party was using the elite armor, his mind just turned around, and he threw away the fear that had surfaced, roared angrily, and took the lead again, rushing into the opponent's armor.
These around him are also the elites that he and He Tu have trained in this small half a year, seeing that Lu Hai is not afraid of death and assault, those strongmen who were originally from Liangshanzhai dare to retreat.
Whether it is military law or peacetime benevolence and prestige, they cannot see Lu Hai fall to death alone.
Even one of the wounded who fell to the ground jumped up at this time, screaming and pounced on the Koreans.
"Yanai said, after I die, the meritorious award can be given to my family, to my brother, not to my brother!" The wounded soldier stuck the neck of a Goryeo armor soldier, and no matter how the other party pushed, kicked, and beaten, he just didn't let go, and shouted in his mouth.
The armor warrior finally returned to the handle of the axe and slammed it to death, but before he could push his body away, Lu Hai's ring-headed knife had already slashed him in the neck.
Because even the neck was armored, the ring head knife was stuck in the body of this armor soldier, Lu Hai abandoned the knife, picked up the Goryeo axe, and then slashed at another Goryeo armor soldier.
"Victory!" After slashing the armor warrior, he raised his axe and roared, and then swooped again.
The surrounding Song soldiers were almost as brave as him, and Zhou Quan's land division order made these Song soldiers understand that they were not fighting for others, but for themselves and their families!
The Goryeo general **** looked up at the bottom of the hillside, and when he first saw the death squad rushing into the limestone village, he was not much excited, those death squads went up, in fact, they consumed the Song people's bows and crossbows to cover the elite armor, they were absolutely consumables.
But when the elite armor finally landed on the gap in the stockade, he felt that the fighter plane had arrived, and no longer hesitated, and ordered: "The whole army will attack, break this lunch!" ”
The Koreans screamed and rushed towards the stockade, and this time, they did not hold back and used all their strength.
The hillside is only more than sixty zhang, and for them, it is just a charge, and they can go up. After rushing into the village, the village, which only has 200 people, cannot be held no matter what......
In the blink of an eye, they were already halfway up the hill!
Victory is in sight, the killing sound of the stockade seems to have quieted down, Wang Meng is happy in his heart, he will take the first credit!
But almost at the same time, they could hear a shout, and then they saw huge fireballs rolling out of the gap in the stockade!
When these fireballs rolled down, they almost stuck into Lu Hai's body, and there were also several fires burning in his clothes, which were extinguished by the Song army beside him.
At this time, Lu Hai was also exhausted, and beside him, there were at least three corpses of Goryeo armor.
"Hehe, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road!" He barely straightened up and looked down, relieved to see the fireball rolling down the ramp, driving the rushing Koreans into a huff.
The Koreans were attacking up the ramp when they were hit into the crowd by the sudden fireball, and even if they were lucky enough not to die, they were all on fire, screaming and rolling on the ground.
If he hadn't pushed him down in time with his own soldiers, he would have been hit by a fireball, and he got up and wanted to urge the sergeants to attack, although the ironclad dead soldiers had been silent, but he was sure that the Song people in the village above had also been exhausted.
This time, the Koreans lost nearly 100 people, especially the dozens of armor soldiers, who should be the elite of their army, and after they retreated, it would definitely take a while before they could attack again.
Looking at the Song Army sergeant who was as tired as him, Lu Hai suddenly felt a sense of pride in his heart.
"Half a year ago, they were just bandits and homeless, but now they can fight this kind of tough battle!" He said proudly, and then beckoned to the defeated Koreans at the bottom of the mountain: "There is a kind of come up and taste grandpa's knife again!" ”
"There's a kind of grandpa's knife to try again!"
Beside him, all the Song people raised their weapons and shouted down the mountain. These former bandits and homeless people also have the same sense of pride as him at this time. (To be continued.) )
