Chapter 363: Candidates for Reporting
Zhao Futang is a rough man, and after being in a hurry, he swore a lot of dirty words, stood on the high platform and spat at the stars, and shouted loudly at the group of soldiers below. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Don't look at the words, although they are very coarse, but they are very effective, the following group of soldiers will hear it, who wants to be treated as a woman! So it also aroused their blood, and they raised their arms and raised the swords and guns in their hands, and shouted loudly like a shock: Great Song is mighty! Our army will win!
Zhao Futang's ears were numb from the roar below, he nodded with his fingers and raised his hand to stop the roar of these gentlemen, put the copper horn to his mouth, and shouted: It's okay! You are all a bunch of men, so take on the appearance of a man, cheer me up, eat and drink enough, ready to fight with me at any time, take the armies down, rest when you should rest, what you should do, and wait for dispatch at any time!
This group of generals immediately responded to the order again, and then the generals of each army immediately took the soldiers away, and they were busy, Zhao Futang nodded, and his morale was back, and then he waited for Gao Huaiyuan's order.
After dawn, the Song and Mongolian armies near Zhangjiazhuang stopped, Polu made up his mind, first besieged the Song army for two days, and then said, the Song army had no water to drink, and after two days, it should collapse on its own, so he was not in a hurry to attack the Song army, and assigned a few soldiers and horses, and the regiments surrounded the Song army, by the way, he also wanted to use the method of besieging the city to send reinforcements, and lead the remaining soldiers and horses of the Song army camp to save the commander of the Song army, just to hit the morale of the Song army again.
After a day and a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers of the Song army were already exhausted, and when they saw that the Mongol Tatars did not launch a new offensive, they also enjoyed their success and began to rest separately.
At the end of the day, the two armies were fine, the Song army did not show any signs of breaking through, and the Mongol army did not show any signs of continuing the attack, but they just watched each other's every move from a distance, but they no longer acted rashly.
On this day, Gao Huaiyuan was also able to rest for a while, closed his eyes and carefully reorganized the entire battle situation, and gradually his thoughts became clearer, he had already figured out Polu's actions, that he thought that they were short of water and food, and wanted to trap them for two or three days, and when they were hungry and thirsty, he had to launch a breakthrough to attack them, this was a good opportunity for him to turn defeat into victory, so he began to think about how to use this.
Gradually, a plan was formed in his mind, so he sent someone to call Hua Yue, and the two of them sat on the ground and discussed, and after a while, a plan to defeat the Mongol army was gradually perfected, and finally the two of them made a decision and made up their minds.
When it was late again, Niu Datong led his digging army, and dug two wells in the array, after the clear well water gushed out, everyone in the Song army breathed a long sigh of relief, and now the water shortage problem they are most afraid of has been completely solved, and the people and horses have clean drinking water, so even if they hold on for a few more days, they have nothing to fear.
And the wounded horses sent by the Mongols became their food, these wounded horses basically either broke their legs, or were injured by arrows, and they did not die for a while, they were robbed back by the Song army, killed some every day, and distributed them to the generals to eat, although they could not guarantee that everyone was full of food, but at least they would not lose their strength because of hunger.
Huang Yan watched these injured horses being killed one by one all day long, and sighed unfortunately, the war horses in the eyes of these generals were precious to death, but in this case, it was impossible for the injured horses to be healed and work with them, and they could only watch them be killed one by one, which made Huang Yan and other generals sigh.
Although he wants to eat horse meat, Huang Yan strictly ordered no one to kill horses near his cavalry team, and strictly prevented the horses from disturbing his hard-won war horses when killing horses, and now he has to admire the level of the Mongols in training war horses, these Mongolian horses are very easy to use, although they are not trained by them, but they are very obedient, basically not disturbed on the battlefield, and very hard-working.
These Mongolian horses have a gap cut out of both ears by the Mongols, so that the cavalry can communicate with them with their voice on horseback, and at the same time, some war horses have their noses pierced, which expands the nasal cavity of the war horses, and when the war horses gallop, they can inhale more air to ensure that they can last longer, in short, these war horses are trained to be very tame and reliable, which makes Huang Yan like it very much.
He also found that many of the war horses were mares, and they produced milk, although they were not used to drinking mare's milk, but this thing Gao Huaiyuan said that it was nutritious, and after it was squeezed out, it was given to the wounded in the army to drink, and the recovery effect for them was good.
Now the only thing they lack is medicine, because this time they came out, the army did not carry too much wound medicine, and the fierce battle of a day and a night caused a lot of Song soldiers to be wounded, and what is even more infuriating is that most of the arrows of the Mongolian soldiers are poisonous, and the wounds will be poisoned even if they do not die, the wounds will fester, which makes many soldiers very angry, and feel that the Mongolian soldiers are too damn lacking in morality.
As a result, many Song soldiers spontaneously picked up the arrows shot by the Mongols in the battle, put them in the quiver for later use, and waited for the opportunity to return them to the Mongol soldiers, so that they could also taste their own poisoned arrows.
Gao Huaiyuan also looked at the arrows of the Mongolian soldiers, carefully inspected these arrow clusters, and found that the Mongolian people have been very superb in the processing technology of steel, these arrow clusters have different shapes, but they are all very sharp, compared to the arrows equipped by the Song army, and even exceed the arrow clusters of the Song army in strength, it can be seen that the Song army has not paid much attention to the manufacture of weapons for so many years, even the equipment of their elite troops, it is difficult to guarantee the quality, which will be very unfavorable for the future war. If he can return to the DPRK this time, he will definitely vigorously rectify the ordnance supervision and the weapons production workshops in various places, and pay attention to this matter.
And the fact that the Mongolian army's arrows were stained with poison also made him very angry, and he said that the Mongols were really fierce, and they were so unruly and used this kind of immoral thing, and he wanted to do something immoral to deal with the Mongols, so that they knew that if they were bad, they barbarians would definitely not be stronger than the civilized Han Chinese.
He regretted that when he led the troops to the expedition this time, he did not bring a group of fierce dogs, if he brought a group of fierce dogs this time, it is estimated that it will play a great role and make the Mongolian Tartars suffer a big loss, but he is not in a hurry to put this strange army into the battlefield, now for the Mongolian army, this is just the beginning, and he will have more opportunities to go in the future, show this group of barbarians his various bad moves, in short, it will make the Mongols regret being the enemy of the Han people.
After ordering the construction of a stronger defense line, Gao Huaiyuan put his mind on the next battle, but in the implementation of the plan, Gao Huaiyuan encountered a problem, that is, how to pass his plan back to the camp, although he has carrier pigeons, but carrier pigeons are not just want them to fly wherever they want, although it is not far from the Song army camp, but the carrier pigeon will not fly towards the camp, only by rushing out by people, can the news be sent back to the camp, so that the remaining army can cooperate with their actions.
Originally, he planned to let Huang Yan send some more daring men to break out and return to the camp to deliver the letter, but now that the Mongolian army has surrounded them, if a few people want to rush out, there is basically no possibility, and how to send the news to the defenders of the camp has become a problem that must be solved.
After thinking about it, Gao Huaiyuan and Hua Yue discussed for a long time, but they didn't come up with a good way, and finally Li Ruohu stood up and said: Adult, let the little one take a few people! The little ones have been blessed with the grace of adults for so long, and it's time for the little ones to do something!
Gao Huaiyuan glanced at Li Ruohu, for so many years, Li Ruohu has been loyal to him, he has long been accustomed to Ruohu staying by his side, and this time he broke through and sent a letter, it can be said that he is nine deaths or even ten deaths, he really couldn't make up his mind for a while, let Li Ruohu go.
At this time, a person suddenly stood up and hugged Gao Huaiyuan and said: My lord, if the tiger can't do it, you can't let him go! I am willing to go to the camp to deliver letters, and I am the only one who is most suitable for this matter!
Gao Huaiyuan turned his head and looked, and immediately his head shook like a rattle: No, no, you must not go!
It turned out that it was Qiu Tong who stood up and asked for his life since he went on the expedition, Qiu Tong became silent and gentler during this time, silently followed Gao Huaiyuan's side, basically did not cause him any more trouble, Gao Huaiyuan sometimes even ignored her existence, this time Qiu Tong stood up and asked to break through on behalf of Li Ruohu to deliver a letter, Gao Huaiyuan didn't even think about it, and directly vetoed it.
Qiu Tong is a very beautiful girl, and the Mongols can't be regarded as human beings at the moment, each is full of beasts, since Genghis Khan ruled the steppe, these people have followed him everywhere to plunder, women are their favorite thing, looting a large number of beautiful women from all over the country for their fun, and such a dangerous thing, Gao Huaiyuan didn't want Qiu Tong to do it at all, so he rejected her proposal.
Li Ruohu didn't do it either, he knew Qiu Tong's identity, and immediately said: This matter is still small, Brother Feng is not suitable for this matter!
When Qiu Tong heard this, his phoenix eyes glared and said: Why can't I? Now there is no one in the army who is more suitable than me to report the news, I was originally a person from the rivers and lakes, and I followed the master to the south and north, and I have done this kind of entry and exit from the enemy camp several times, and I will secretly trace the art of stealth, even adults are probably not as familiar as me, and my kung fu is better than Ruohu, it is expected that the Mongolian soldiers will never find me! That's why I'm the only one who is the right person to report the news!
