Chapter 188: Encirclement and Annihilation [Ask for Recommendation!] 】
"All Jade Dragon Guards obey orders! In pursuit of the Turkic army, be sure to drive the Turkic army into the woods and trap it! Wei Hong stood on the city wall and shouted loudly to all the Jade Dragon Guards gathered at the city gate.
After receiving the order, the remaining more than 1,000 Jade Dragon Guards rushed out of the city gate with the momentum of a tiger out of the cage and chased after the retreating Turkic army. On the other side, the 25,000 main army led by Qin Shubao drove the Turkic army from the other direction, although it could not catch up with the Turkic army, as long as the Turkic army did not change the retreat route.
Waiting for the Jade Dragon Guard and the main army to converge, Qin Shubao looked at the bloodstained Jade Dragon Guard, and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that these three thousand Jade Dragon Guards were really under the strong attack of the Turkic army of 60,000 people, holding Horsehair Mountain for two and a half hours!" Datang is really fortunate to have this divine army! ”
After two and a half hours of battle, under the bloody battle of the Jade Dragon Guard and the saturation blow of 15,000 archers, only 40,000 of the 60,000 Turkic army remained, of which the most casualties were the infantry, and the original 10,000 infantry was left. The 40,000 Turkic army retreated to the north with all their might, as long as it was successfully withdrawn, it would be a large army that Datang feared for a period of time!
As time passed, the Turkic army soon reached the outskirts of the woods, and when they saw the vast woods, the Turkic army was not the slightest doubt, but was overjoyed. As long as you rush through this forest, you can completely get rid of the Datang chasing army. The Turkic cavalry rushed into the woods like a tidal wave, rampage through the woods, at first unusual, but as they gradually deepened, the neighing of horses and the screams of soldiers began to be heard. As the voice grew louder, the Turkic army finally found the clue, but it was too late.
A large number of war horses fell to the ground for no reason, and when the cavalry declined from their horses, although they were not trampled or overwhelmed by the horses, they still howled and rolled on the ground, as if they were enchanted. After the dead leaves on the ground were pounced on by the Turkic cavalry who were turned on their backs, the Turkic cavalry discovered the iron dysentery hidden under the dead leaves.
"Not good! It's the annihilation plan of the Tang thieves! We are in ambush! Withdraw, withdraw! "Under the command of the Turkic generals, the Turkic army began to turn its horse and march westward, but when it was about to rush out of the woods, the horse running at the front fell for no reason, and when he looked closely, he found the rope tied to the tree.
"Cut all the ropes!" The Turkic generals gave the order again, but the ground was full of iron dysentery, and no matter how the cavalry beat the war horses, the war horses did not dare to move a single step. In the end, the cavalry had no choice but to jump off their horses, kick the iron dysentery away, walk to the rope, and look at the rope away.
The Turkic cavalry spent a lot of time on the ropes, and when the ropes were cleared, they found that the main army of Horsehair Mountain had set up a battle outside the woods, waiting for the Turkic cavalry to come out. After the previous siege battle, and after tossing and turning in the woods for too long, the Turkic cavalry was already sleepy and lacked horses, and had no combat effectiveness at all, and even the morale of the army began to waver. The Turkic generals knew that they must not fight again now, otherwise they would definitely lose to the main army of Horsehair Mountain.
"Retreat, retreat into the woods, get rid of the stuff on the ground! Set up camp in place, rest your army, and fight again when you have the opportunity! "The Turkic generals led their armies into the woods, set up a battle, and fought to the death with Qin Shubao's main army.
Seeing that the Turkic army refused to come out, Qin Shubao was not in a hurry, so he let the Tang army guard outside. The topography of this wooded landscape is bordered by a bottomless river to the south, a rocky mess to the east, and there are only two roads in and out, the west and the north. Now the main army of Horsehair Mountain is guarded in the north and south, and it is difficult for the Turkic army to fly with its wings. Moreover, the longer it drags on, the more beneficial it will be to one's own side, after all, the Turkic army has no supplies, and when the physical strength is gone, it can even surrender these 40,000 soldiers and horses without using troops.
While Qin Shubao was waiting for the Turkic army to surrender, Wei Hong rushed over with a large group of carriages. The carriage was loaded with iron dysentery, and he ordered people to sprinkle the iron dysentery evenly on the west and north sides of the woods, so that the Turkic horses could not run, and beware that they would force their way through the siege after they regained their strength.
After sprinkling iron leprosy, another carriage came, and it was Zhou Dali who drove the car. When he got to the front of him, Zhou Dali jumped out of the carriage and said excitedly: "Mr. Wei, everything has been made!" ”
Before the war, Wei Hong gave Zhou Dali a stack of drawings, in which there were horseshoes in addition to iron dysentery. Wei Hong looked at the horseshoe, and each one was of good quality, so he hurriedly asked Qin Shubao to transfer the only 1,000 cavalry, nail the horseshoe, and constantly patrol around the periphery of the woods, playing a role in deterring and blocking.
At night, before the Turkic army came out, their own troops began to set up tents outside and light bonfires. In order to further stimulate the nerves of the Turkic army, Wei Hong deliberately asked Zhou Dali to buy hundreds of pigs, slaughter them, and roast them on the fire. The smell of oil and fragrance drifted into the woods with the wind, constantly stimulating the sense of smell of the Turkic army.
After the pig was roasted, Wei Hong shouted loudly in front of everyone nearby: "There is only so much pork, if we all eat it, it will definitely not be enough!" But it's still possible to satisfy cravings! After saying that, Wei Hong asked the pork to be cut into small pieces and distributed to the whole army.
In this battle, although Wei Hong did not charge, he exhausted a lot of brain cells and needed to be replenished. Sitting in front of the campfire, eating hot pork with relish. Qin Shubao next to him looked at Wei Hong directly, his eyes were very complicated, as if a pervert was staring at the handsome little daughter-in-law, and Wei Hong was furious in his heart.
"How did you come up with this trick of Jinshan overpowering?" After a long time, Qin Shubao still opened his mouth.
Wei Hong's eyes were fixed on the pork, and he replied absentmindedly: "That's what I thought." Although this trick is easy to use, Hu Guogong, don't learn it randomly. ”
"Why?" Qin Shubao was puzzled, since it was easy to use, why not carry it forward?
Wei Hong explained: "To use Jinshan to press the top, there must be three innate conditions. The first one must have the Jade Dragon Guard in front of it, only the armor of the Jade Dragon Guard can ignore the rain of arrows, and if you change to other armies, you will definitely be killed by the rain of arrows like the enemy. Second, as the name suggests, the amount of money that needs to be consumed is too huge. Now if a major battle is fought, the original military consumption will be too large, and the treasury will be unable to bear it. If the gold mountain is used to press the top again, it will only increase the burden on the national treasury. In the last one, the Jade Dragon Guard tried his best to narrow the combat range to the city walls and city gates, because the combat range was small, so that the arrow rain could be completely covered. If the combat range is too large, not to mention where to find so many strong men who are not afraid of death for money, even the range of bows and arrows is not enough. ”
