What Li Rizun didn't expect was that except for the artillery instructor Zou You, who had already led the sailors down the river, the rest of the forbidden army stayed in Xuanguang Prefecture, stationed outside the dense forest only more than 20 miles away from the state capital.
The ambush battle a few days ago caused the forbidden army, which was under great pressure in logistics support, to "accidentally" obtain a lot of grain and grass, and it could support it for a while longer. What made Lu Fatzi smile even more was that more than 10,000 horses fell into the hands of the forbidden army. You know, the horses of Cochin were imported from the Uighurs and mixed with local horses, and although they were not as good as the Uighur horses, they were already good in Dashun, where there was a shortage of military horses.
Maybe the luck of the forbidden army ran out, and Lu Fatzi still wanted to ambush again, but the Jiaozhi people seemed to have learned wisely and never left Xuanguangzhou City again, so that Lu Fatzi's plan repeatedly failed. Except for catching some cochin scouts, they crouched for a few days, but they didn't get anything.
It's been five days, and they can't wait for the Jiaozhi army, and it's time for Lu Fatzi and Zhe Kexing to have to part ways.
"General Zhe, these 10,000 people and more than 20,000 horses are under your command."
Riding on his favorite horse, Lu Chenhuan earnestly advised: "Whether you can recover the old land for Dashun depends on the general!" ”
Zhi Kexing also knew the burden on his shoulders, and nodded seriously: "I should do my best to cooperate with the general!" "Although they don't get along for much time, their tacit understanding in cooperation is unmatched. Lu Chenhuan believes in the folding, in addition to their sympathy for each other, more because they have quite the same views on the march and formation, and there is a feeling that the heroes see the same thing.
Such a good general will never hold back his colleagues. In fact, the record of the self-folding Kexing can also be seen, when the Chong Ge was defeated by the Khitans in Datong Mansion, if it wasn't for the Zhe Ke Xing rate of 3,000 fine horsemen, after risking death, how could the Chong Ge escape? The 3,000 elite horsemen dragged the 200,000 Khitans for half a day, and after they were finally surrounded, they had to disperse and break through. In that battle, Zhi Kexing returned to Datong Mansion with dozens of remnants, but he did not have half an inch of credit. Although it is a kind of last resort, it has also buried the fold of Kexing.
After being silent for several years, it was time to operate, and finally waited for Mingjun.
You must know that Feng Tang is easy to get old, and Li Guang is difficult to seal, which is nothing new in this year. There are many examples that Huai Cai has not encountered. Zhi Kexing originally thought that he was a martial arts soldier, and he was going to be buried in Datong Mansion, so he was a Wu Yilang from the seventh grade and a regimental training envoy from the eighth grade, and he was transferred to Dali Mansion with a holy will. Since then, his life has taken a 180-degree turn. Several battles with the Jiaozhi people made his silent heart become hot. Is there anything more enjoyable than this to display your talents?
Lu Fatzi and Zhi Kexing are military generals, but in their opinion, they are too childlike. I only heard Lu Fatzi say in high spirits: "Within a month, I was going to let Li Rizun, I don't know the taste of food, and I can't sleep at night!" ”
Zhi Kexing also said arrogantly: "I will make the surrounding area of Thang Long City full of soldiers, and the wind is loud!" ”
"Hahaha......"
After a few laughs, the two turned their horses' heads around and hurried to their own battlefield.
Lu Fatzi led more than 20,000 forbidden troops and went straight to An Pei Mansion.
As for Zhekexing, he turned his head to the east and galloped towards the area of Thang Long City, or walked slowly along the official road, which seemed to have the meaning of fanfare. Even the ordinary people of Jiaozhi have never shied away. When encountering sporadic soldiers, those who resist and flee catch up and kill them, and those who surrender are disarmed—they never let go of the food on their bodies.
Within two days, Li Rizun, who was in Thang Long City, received a report from scouts that a Han army was coming to attack Thang Long City. When Li Rizun heard this, he was almost frightened, and hurriedly asked, "Where is the Han army at this time, and how many people are here?" "Fortunately, Li Rizun is also a person who has experienced the battle array, otherwise, he would have ordered to abandon the city and flee. Under the bombardment of the cannons, the walls of Thang Long City were already crispy, as if they could be toppled with a little force. It would be the most unwise thing to defend such a city.
The scout replied: "Back to Your Majesty, the Han army has only more than 10,000 horsemen, and the rest are missing. ”
Li Rizun's expression became a little strange: "No, this is a plan to 'repair the plank road in the Ming Dynasty and secretly cross the Chen Cang', you go and explore again to see where the rest of the Han army is!" "Li Rizun is not a straw bag in the end, he is also an emperor who has been in battle, he is familiar with the Han soldiers' books, and he is even familiar with the thirty-six strategies.
After the scout took the order and left, Li Rizun slowly pondered: "The Han army has more than 10,000 people, what kind of wind and waves can it withstand?" If there are 50,000 men, maybe I will have to transfer back to the army......"
Although it is said in the military book that the number of soldiers is not too many but fine, but when the number of people is so small, in the cold weapon warfare, especially in the cold weapon period, which has developed into a multi-arm coordinated operation, a single cavalry no longer has much deterrent power. Perhaps only a cavalry archer, like a nomad, can have a deterrent effect.
Li Rizun had never fought with the Khitans, and he did not understand the Khitans' methods of warfare. Therefore, his impression is still stuck in the perception that the Han people will only use cavalry to charge, divide and encircle, and create chaos. But I didn't know that Zhi Kexing had been on the border for so many years, and he had already learned the tactics of the Khitans. Ordinary training, practicing riding and archery is the most important. Originally, after Zhi Kexing knew that there was a powerful weapon called the Hongxiang rifle, he still thought about whether he could use it right away. But he quickly gave up, because the Hongxiang rifle was too slow to load, and even slower on a bumpy horse, even less than a bow and arrow. The speed of the war horse's charge is very fast, often less than three or two shots, and it has already rushed a hundred feet away. Loading black and gunpowder on the back of a bumpy horse is too unstable. In addition, the Hongxiang rifle uses flint fire, which is easy to misfire. On weekdays, if a fire goes wrong, at most one person will be killed or injured. But on the horse, if the Hongxiang-style rifle goes off fire and hits the horse, it is likely to cause a chain reaction, and the cavalry following behind will not have time to react, and the result will be disastrous.
In view of these points, the cavalry of the Praetorian Army still did not change their equipment, but continued to use bows and arrows. Under the training of Zhi Kexing, although the cavalry and archery skills of this forbidden army are not as good as those of the Khitans, and even the war horses are not as good as those of the war horses, it is still more than enough to abuse the Jiaozhi people. If it weren't for such confidence, would he dare to use 10,000 people against the entire Jiaozhi country?
What is like this is that they now have two horses per person, which can be ridden in different ways, saving horsepower and making them more maneuverable. As long as Tan Ma detected the movements of the Jiaozhi army, with such a strong mobility, Zhi Kexing dared to pat his chest and guarantee that in the territory of Jiaozhi Country, as long as he was unwilling, he would not give people a siege. As a wise and brave general, he has such self-confidence! (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
