Chapter 476: Night Attack on the Black Wind River
The Turpan guards also missed the lead, and they were in a good mood today. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although the fortress of the Kurokaze River is strong, it is desert everywhere and completely uninhabited.
has been guarding such a place where birds don't poop for a long time, and the whole person has become angry.
Yesterday, he specially called a group of secret prostitutes in Liucheng to vent the anger of the brothers.
Not to mention that these secret prostitutes really have some ability, the brothers who serve are comfortable and numb.
Hehe, although the price of this batch of secret prostitutes is quite high, and it costs the brothers a lot of money, they still think it is worth it.
"Boss, those beauties said that I was handsome, and I would come to Heifeng River next time to serve me alone."
Ge Si smiled, clearly still immersed in the intoxication of last night.
"Haha, you fool, that girl is looking at your Qian Junlang, do you really think you can get into their eyes? Don't say it's you, it's the king of heaven who is here, don't think about kissing these girls if you don't have money. ”
"Is that really the case?"
Ge Si looked frustrated, and hung his head like a defeated rooster.
"I thought she really admired me."
"Admiring you? Haven't you heard of a saying from Mingren, bitches are ruthless, and dramas are meaningless! ”
He also kicked Ge Si's ass first, and scolded with a smile: "Don't be fucking drunk, hurry up and lead someone to sentry." ”
"Ugh."
Gesme's dream was shattered, and he had to accept the reality and go to the watchtower with a few companions to set up a sentry.
The garrison of the Kurofugawa is only more than a thousand people, and basically everyone has to take turns for one night a year, and today it happened to be Katsuji's turn.
Alas, it was another long night.
It's March, but Heifeng River is still bitterly cold.
Especially at night, when the cold wind blows through the whole body, it shivers and shivers, as if the wind is like a bone scraper.
Fortunately, there is wine to drink, and the body is not so cold.
There are two guard towers, one of which has two sentry posts. That way, if one person is sleepy and napping, there will still be someone to watch.
In fact, in Ge Si's opinion, there is no need for so many people to be sentry together.
The Ming people had long been frightened, and they couldn't even defend Hami City, so how could they fight Heifengchuan's idea? However, since the general also gave the order, it must be followed, who called him the leader.
What the official says is the golden rule, and whoever dares to disobey is provoking authority, and the end will be miserable.
Ge Si naturally didn't want to touch this mold. He climbed the towering watchtower and leaned against the wooden pillar and sighed.
Alas, it would be nice to have a girl every night like last night.
As for the identity of a woman, Ge Si didn't care at all.
"Misha, let's talk about it, when will we have a woman of our own in this life?"
Ge Si was tall, but the sand on the side was short and thin, and the two stood together extremely incongruously.
He poured a sip of honey wine and sneered, "Fuck the woman." With that money, Lao Tzu would rather gamble twice than roll it up for those women. ”
Ge Si was stunned, but he stopped talking. Isn't it because of the stimulus last night? Or is there something wrong with that?
Gesi stopped thinking about it and began to hum a song. This is the most commonly sung folk song by the grassland people, and the melody is melodious, as long as it is tuned together, it can make people's blood surge.
A wolf howl rang out in the distant col, and Ge Si was even more interested and sang loudly.
"Don't fucking howl, I'm going to sleep for a while, you keep an eye on it. Wait for Lao Tzu to wake up and sleep with you. Do you really want to stay up all night? ”
Although Ge Si was displeased in his heart, he didn't say much.
He leaned against a wooden pillar and drank honey wine while counting the stars in the sky.
One, two, three......
After some time, he heard a strange noise, at first he thought it was a wild cat and a roe deer, but after careful identification, he found that it seemed to be the sound of a horse's hooves.
"Wake up, wake up, Secretion!"
Geth shook his companion as he lit a torch and hung it on the wall of the watchtower.
"What the fuck are you howling about? How long have I been asleep? ”
His dreams were stirred up, and he was furious like a lion.
"Listen, what it sounds like."
"What can be in the middle of the night, it must be a wild cat!"
Misha wanted to continue to make up for sleep, but was pulled by Ge Si: "Are you crazy, it must be the sound of horses' hooves!" ”
Misha pricked up his ears impatiently to listen, but he really heard the sound of horses' hooves.
Not one, not even dozens, it's the sound of hundreds, thousands of horses!
At this time, the sound of horses' hooves means that Misha knows very well, this is definitely not a horse thief, is it the Ming army?
"Do you want to blow the horn?"
Ge Si hesitated for a moment and sighed: "Let's wait and see, if you misreport the military situation, you will have to eat the board." ”
Just when the two hesitated, several war horses suddenly flashed in front of the gate.
Before they could react, two feathered arrows shot through the air and through their throats.
Woo, woo.
They tried to speak, but they couldn't make any sound, and fell to the ground like a mess of mud, convulsed for a while, and then died.
Almost at the same time, the sentry of the other watchtower was shot and fell to the ground.
A large group of people suddenly flashed out in front of the walled gate, and they rushed towards the walled gate without hesitation under the leadership of the leading general Luo Yong.
This walled gate was originally made of wood, and there was a big hole in the top of the iron lance, which was enough for the Ming army to penetrate.
This Ming army obviously came prepared, and without any hesitation, they went straight to the tent of the Turpan garrison.
With torches in one hand and spears in the other, they moved forward quickly with only their legs between their horses' bellies.
"Throw torches and burn these barbarians!"
Garrison Officer Luo ordered in a deep voice.
The soldiers of the night raiders threw their torches at the camp of the Turpan people.
The tent was made of thick felt leather, and a great fire was immediately ignited by a little torch.
Most of the Turpan soldiers were asleep, and many were burned to death. Some of them reacted, jumped out of bed and ran out of the tent with their pants on.
They ran out of the tent only to find the stockade burned to the ground.
They looked around at each other, confused in their eyes.
At this moment, they saw the same disheveled and embarrassed general.
"Yes, General Yexian, everyone quickly gather to General Yexian!"
I don't know who shouted first, and those Turpan soldiers immediately ran towards Yeluo.
I also lost my foresight, and my subordinates gathered one after another, and my heart was a little settled.
He really didn't expect the Ming army to carry out a night attack. But now it seems that he was indeed wrong.
However, as long as he breathed a sigh of relief, there was still no problem in dealing with the weak Ming army.
"Don't panic, everyone, the Ming army is all local chickens and dogs, and they will be defeated with one blow!"
He also took a deep breath and said in a loud voice: "Formation!" ”
......
......
The fighting quality of the Turpan people is still very high, and the already chaotic army has regrouped under the order of the first place.
They formed a shield formation, and the foot soldiers were close to each other, with heavy shields in one hand and spears in the other. Such a formation, although cumbersome, worked wonders against cavalry.
Of course, he also hoped to use cavalry against cavalry, and the Ming army that killed the night attack did not leave a piece of armor. But now it's too late to get on the horse and form a formation, and the Ming army will not give them this opportunity. The best thing to do is to step into formation.
Seeing that the Turpan people had made a targeted response, Luo Yong did not panic at all.
He coldly gave the order: "Archers, volley!" ”
Nearly a hundred archers were immediately listed from behind the cavalry, and they bent their bows and arrows to shoot at the Turpan people.
These Turpan people who had just formed a shield formation were stupid, and if the clumsy infantry formation was most afraid of the archers.
The biggest difference between a bow and a crossbow is that a bow and arrow shoot in an arc, while a crossbow shot shoots flat.
The shield array can easily resist crossbow arrows, but it cannot withstand the rain of bows and arrows falling from the sky.
In an instant, a large number of Turpan soldiers were shot wounded and killed.
"Shoot again!"
The archers in the first row retreated, and the robes behind them immediately stepped forward, bending their bows and arrows, staring at these barbarians with cold eyes.
Arrows from the sky were woven into a net and sprinkled on the Turpan soldiers.
This time, for the first time, fear appeared in his eyes.
"Shameless bastards!"
He took a few steps back under the protection of his own soldiers, and after a moment of thought, he made the decision to flee.
Under the gaze of countless Turpan soldiers, he also lost the first to turn over his horse and rode towards the back village with a group of personal soldiers.
"The general also ran away!"
I don't know who was the first to shout, and the already shaky military spirit of the Turpan army was completely dissipated. The seemingly monolithic shield array was torn apart.
Luo Yong squinted his eyes slightly, as if enjoying the feeling of this moment.
"Kill, you can't let a Turpan person get out of Heifeng River!"
All the soldiers of the Ming army rode their horses and rushed towards these scattered and crying Turpan people, like a storm and thunder.
With the impact of the horse, the spear could easily penetrate the chain mail of the Turpan people.
The Ming cavalry only needed to use light force to penetrate the enemy soldiers and then throw them out heavily.
The popping of spears into flesh, the screams of Turpan soldiers, and the creaking of dying teeth all came together, and it was terrifying in an instant.
The officers and men of the Ming army did not hesitate at all, they were professional soldiers, and it was their duty to defend the country and expand the territory.
These Turpan people repeatedly invaded the city of Hami, burning, killing, looting and doing all kinds of evil. They will teach these barbarians a good lesson today, so that they will not dare to invade the Ming Dynasty again.
The infantry without formation was like fish on the board under the onslaught of the cavalry, and it was slaughtered by others.
After several shocks, most of the Turpan soldiers were dead.
The soldiers who survived threw away their armor and fell to their knees to beg for forgiveness from the Ming army.
But in response to them were long sharp knives.
The long knife slashed through the neck, and the big heads flew up.
The Ming soldiers were not in a hurry to pick up the heads, in their opinion, these Turpan people were already dead. Wait until all the enemy troops are killed, and then it will be too late to count the enemy heads.
For the soldiers of the Ming army, the head of the enemy army is the certificate of receiving military merits, and they will naturally cut it down without hesitation.
"For the sake of Daming, for Your Majesty!"
Luo Yong let out a roar, and the bloody nature of the Ming army was completely stimulated, and the Black Wind River immediately became the hell of Shura.
......
......
When he also took more than 100 personal soldiers to flee to the gate of the village behind Heifeng River, he was desperate.
Standing in front of him was another cavalry of the Ming army, numbering five hundred.
He thought he had escaped from Ascension, but he was stuck in the last hurdle.
These Ming troops are really like ghosts!
I also thought of it first.
At the moment, it is useless to say anything else, and there is only one choice left for those who have lost the lead, and that is to fight to the death.
There may be a glimmer of life in the death war, and the end of begging for mercy is to be cut off like a pig and a dog.
"Rush out, rush out with General Ben."
He also drew his saber and roared hoarsely.
The Turpan people finally showed their wolf nature, and they all knocked on the horse's belly, drew their long knives, and rushed forward with the loss of the first.
But just as they were already in the midst of their momentum, the horses stumbled and fell forward.
It's a trap!
It was too late to react first, and he was thrown out with a bang and fell to the ground with a thud.
The cavalry that followed closely behind was also trapped, and a war horse pressed directly against the right leg that had also lost the lead, and he roared in pain.
He even heard the sound of bones breaking, and the feeling of pain in the bone marrow made life worse than death.
More than 100 Turpan cavalry fell off their horses before they could touch the Ming cavalry, and the screams were endless.
The Ming soldiers jumped off their horses one after another, stepped forward and made up the last knife cleanly.
He felt silence around him for a moment, and when he looked up, he found a sharp blade around his neck.
"Lend your head for a while."
Before he could even see the face of the Ming general, his head was cut off.
His eyes were wide open, but he couldn't blink a blind eye.
......
......
"Report to the general, a total of 1,123 enemy soldiers were killed this time, and not a single enemy soldier escaped."
Adjutant General Zhang Cong clenched his fists and reported to Luo.
After a night, all the beheaded heads of the enemy had been put into sacks, ready to be taken back to the sandbank to be recorded in the register and reported for military exploits.
"How many casualties did the brethren have?"
Luo asked in a deep voice.
"Fifty-seven brothers were killed and two hundred and eighteen wounded."
The adjutant general, Zhang Cong, lowered his head, his voice full of remorse.
If they had done it better, they might have been able to save so many brothers from being killed.
"Cremate these brothers, and bring the ashes back to Gansu Town."
Luo Yong sighed and said: "Remember to bring the funeral money issued by the imperial court to the families of these brothers, they died for the Ming Dynasty, and they can't let their wives and children still starve and freeze." ”
"General Luo, don't worry, we will take care of the families of these dead brothers to the end. There is no kind of soldier in our Gansu town! ”
Luo Yong nodded lightly and said no more.
People cannot be resurrected from death, and all he can do now is to do his best to deal with the aftermath and take care of his family for the brothers.
"Do you say you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear. Enmity with the Son. How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd. Work with the son! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers. Walk with the son! ”
The loud military song sounded, and Luo Yong and his soldiers sent the dead brothers on their last journey.
