Chapter 860: Target! Huang Tai Chi
Seeing that the Tartar deserters were getting closer and closer to him, the faces of the hundreds of soldiers in the guard battalion slowly showed a hot expression from the heart.
At this moment, the pathfinder Suo Keti rushed back again.
However, this time, not only did he not see any smile or excitement on his face, but there was a trace of solemnity.
Before he walked in front of Wang Bo, he shouted loudly: "The Houjin Army, there is the main force of the Houjin Army blocking the way in front, and it is also the most elite Zhenghuang Banner of Houjin, the Zhenghuang Banner that Huang Taiji has been holding in his hand and has not moved......"
"How many Houjin troops are there, and how is their morale......" faced Suo Keti's face with a serious expression that suddenly appeared. The heat on Commander Wang Bo's face was also covered with seriousness for the first time. Facing Suo Keti who came in a hurry, he subconsciously asked......
"There are more than 1,000 people in total, and the morale is very good, which is definitely not comparable to those Houjin soldiers left by Huang Taiji in the barracks...... Not only that, but these Houjin troops are all armed with muskets and grenades, and at least on the surface, they are very combat-ready......" Suo Keti, whose face was solemn, quickly replied.
Faced with this situation, Wang Bo did not say a word more.
Directly led the white elite behind him, and hurried to the battlefield under the leadership of Suo Keti.
Soon, more than a thousand Tartars blocking the mountain road appeared in Wang Bo's field of vision.
Suo Keti is right, these Tartars in front of him are worthy of being the strongest elite in Houjin's combat power.
In a situation where the main forces are demoralized and lose the courage to fight. Not only did these Tartars maintain high morale, but Wang Bo even saw a hint of murderous aura from them......
Seeing this, Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "It seems." Houjin left more than 10,000 troops. It's not all a rabble, either. There are still elite ...... From them, I have seen their determination and murderous spirit to not give up until they reach their goal......"
Just when the faces of the subordinates slowly became serious because of Wang Bo's words. Wang Bo's tone of voice suddenly changed, and he continued: "However, this performance of the Tartars also proves one of our ideas before the pursuit on the other hand. Among all the Houjin armies we are pursuing, there must be the big fish of Houjin. It's not good, this big fish is the Emperor Taiji of the Houjin Khan......"
"You know, in the life-and-death moment of running for your life. can make more than a thousand Houjin troops completely desperate to stay and block us, if this person does not have a certain prestige in Houjin, he will definitely not be able to do it......"
"And looking at the current Houjin, Huang Taiji is alone, and he still has such a high prestige. And we can let more than 1,000 elites of the Yellow Flag stay behind and swear to stop us...... You must know that the elite of the Thousand Descendants Jin Army in front of us is the elite of the Zhenghuang Banner that only Huang Taiji has the right to mobilize......"
The subordinates who were still serious just now, after hearing the three words Huang Taiji, one by one seemed to be beaten with chicken blood, and they instantly became excited and hot.
Moreover. Some company commanders have already begun to clamoring to catch up with the main force of the Houjin Army. Grab the slogan of Huang Taiji.
Of course, there is also a calm person among them, and that is Suo Keti.
As a former henchman of Huang Taiji, Suo Keti is very aware of the combat effectiveness of Zhenghuang Banner.
It can be said that Huang Taiji personally mastered and trained more than 10,000 Zhenghuang Banner elites, not only equipped with the best equipment of Houjin. In terms of training, it also far surpasses other armies of the Houjin......
Riding on war horses, as cavalrymen, they call themselves second, and absolutely no one dares to call them first. Of course, the first and second in this only refer to all the armies under the Later Jin Emperor Taiji.
Abandoning the war horse and using the musket, its combat effectiveness definitely exceeds the 20,000 musketeers trained by Ao Bai himself.
Therefore, in Suo Keti's view, the more than 10,000 elites of Zhenghuang Banner are definitely god-like armies among the tens of thousands of post-Jin troops.
So, when everyone was clamoring for how to capture Huang Taiji, Suo Keti still maintained the last trace of calm. Facing Wang Bo, he asked worriedly: "Senior Commander Wang, I don't know if you can capture Huang Taiji...... However, I think the most important thing we should do now is to eat the post-1,000 Jin army in front of us...... You know, they are the strongest Zhenghuang Banner in Houjin. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk......"
Suo Keti's reminder, although Wang Bo had a hint of admiration for him.
However, the confident smile on Wang Bo's face did not change in the slightest because of Suo Keti's reminder.
After showing a smile full of appreciation to Suo Keti, Wang Bo said confidently: "You are not wrong, Zhenghuangqi is indeed the strongest army in Houjin. However, our combat effectiveness is not underestimated......"
"Among all the musket divisions of the Haw Par Army, except for the guard division that protects the capital, our first division recognizes the second, and no one dares to recognize the first. Not only that, but the hundreds of soldiers of the guard battalion behind me were selected from the elite of the whole division, and they were the most powerful in combat among the more than 10 battalions in the division...... It can be called the elite of the elite......"
"Therefore, for the elite of the Thousand Queens Jin Army who are blocking us, I have a way to eliminate them in a short period of time......"
After speaking, Wang Bo didn't care about the shocked expression on Suo Keti's face, and directly ordered his subordinates behind him......
"Artillery King Company Commander, all the mortars equipped by the guard battalion add up, and there are definitely twenty of them...... Plus we brought enough shells. Therefore, in the next battle, whether we can immediately break through the defense line of the Tartar in front of us depends on you......"
"I have decided to hand over all the mortars we are carrying to you...... After the offensive begins, do not be afraid to waste shells...... Give me a flowering bomb and blow up a thousand Tartars in front of me......"
"As long as the Tartars are in disarray, there is no way to stop us with muskets...... The whole battalion of the guard battalion immediately attacked...... Greet with muskets when you are far away, and grenades with grenades when you are close......"
"My mission for you is not to destroy them. Instead, in the shortest time and at the lowest cost, they will be hit hard...... Finally, defeat them......"
"All of you must know that the target of my guard battalion is not them, but Huang Taiji, who is on the run......"
"As long as they take Huang Taiji, even if they escape, it won't have any impact on the entire battle......"
"So, during the attack, no one can be stuck with the Tartars...... As soon as he defeated the Tartars, he quickly broke away from the battle and continued to pursue Huang Taiji......"
"As long as we hurry up and end the battle as soon as possible, Huang Taiji will not be able to escape from our hands...... So, after the offensive starts, give me a little leisure......" (to be continued......)
