Chapter 731: Strange Waves
As a qualified vanguard officer, Shi Wengong's first feeling when he first came into contact with this group of enemy troops crossing the river was that the opponent this time should not be a regular army, or even a powerful private soldier.
Why?
Although Goryeo is small and has been established for 200 years, it has not yet made the regular army dress in tatters and live like a group of homeless people. Not to mention that many people used sharpened hardwood as spears, long knives, swords and other standard weapons were even rarer, and Shi Wengong even found the shadow of hoes and other farm tools from these people.
Although the powerful people like to fight with the people in their sphere of influence, and they also have something in common with this group of "displaced people", these people's teams also have a significant feature, that is, the core of the team is usually composed of elite private soldiers whose cohesion far exceeds that of the regular army. This core not only plays a role in ensuring the victory of the battle, but also ensures the personal safety of the heroes in critical moments.
But where is the core of this group of people in front of you? It's a completely chilly scene inside and out, and that's the only feature that is consistent between them and above.
"Such a person, Li Ziqian also dares to recruit Wang Jing? It's really a dog eating cow, just a lot! Su Ding, who was standing on the high ground to investigate the enemy's situation, said that he did not hide the contempt in his heart, but his face was still happy, not that this group of people aroused his desire to fight on horseback, but the hundreds of boats and boats that stayed in the river, which made him feel very relieved that "what Lao Tzu lacks, you will send".
"Eighty percent of the village left the second and third rank army recruited from Jiaozhou Road! It seems that this old thief has made up his mind to die with our army in Wang Jing! That's fine, let's come to a siege point to send reinforcements, and first solve the reinforcements mobilized by Li Ziqian! ”
Shi Wengong's eyes were the most poisonous, and he guessed the origin of this group of people as soon as he opened his mouth. The 2nd and 3rd Rank Army of the Village Retention Army was the largest contingent stationed in the local prefecture and county of Goryeo. However, although these people bear the name of the army, they do not take it as their duty to fight, and are mainly engaged in heavy and menial labor, which is somewhat similar to the Xiang army of the Song Dynasty, but the status is lower.
"What my brother said is very true, this move is exactly in line with the essence of the art of war of 'using my strengths to attack the enemy's shortcomings'! To be honest, we haven't met a few Koreans in the wilderness since we were the vanguard of the army! ”
Su Dingtou agreed, although the Fanluo army has achieved brilliant results since the landing, it can rely on its own strength to capture the capital that the enemy is determined to defend, whether it is Su Ding or Shi Wengong, no matter how arrogant and arrogant, they have no such unrealistic plans.
"It's a pity that I finally met a group of people, but they are only the second and third rank soldiers left in the village, and they are not martial!"
"Brother, don't look down on him, no matter how small a fly is, it's meat! Later, you will take five battalions to press up, and be careful to fight quickly, mainly to grab ships, but also to take prisoners! Questions? ”
Su Ding saw that Shi Wen Gongming was in a posture of "one pot end", and couldn't help but laugh "badly": "Just drive this guy away, don't you leave a mouthful of soup for later people to drink?" ”
"This is a war, how can it be a child's play? Since it is my turn to be the vanguard, in front of the marshal, I will also say: gnaw the bones and chew the fat! Whoever has an opinion, wait until they are pioneers! ”
The low tide of half a year has not changed the pride that this man hides deep in his bones, and now he is like a sword out of the sheath, vowing to find his own glory on the stage of Tuobian, a unique glory.
"Foolish brother will sweep the battle for you, go!" Shi Wengong patted Su Ding's shoulder and encouraged.
"Brother, what reserves do you have left behind to deal with this group? How about handing over all the brothers to the younger brother, promising not to spill a drop of soup, and settling the battle in half an hour? ”
Having said that, in fact, what Su Ding admires most about Shi Wengong is that he is absolutely arrogant when he should be arrogant, but he never forgets to leave behind.
"Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, besides, I always feel that something is not quite right today!"
When he said this, Shi Wengong's brows furrowed slightly. He has always had a question in his heart that has not been solved, since Li Ziqian put on a posture of defending Wang Jing, why would he recklessly send a fleet to pick up such a group of completely unreliable people? Don't you worry about your enemies? Is he really at the end of his rope, or does he have other plans?
"With my five thousand fine horses, even if it is placed in the Great Song Dynasty, it should not be underestimated, can Li Ziqian, the king of grass, still catch our fish? Besides, even if you send all the cavalry under him, not to mention the combat power, the number of battles may not be able to beat us! ”
Su Ding smiled self-deprecatingly, and when it came to the number of people, he was already super looking at the Daren Guojing army trained by Li Ziqian, and after speaking, he had lost interest in talking about the opponent again, so he just said: "Brother, I want to bring the 1,000 Han army." The further back we go, the less opportunities we have to show our faces, so take advantage of the opportunity to let the brothers show more of us! ”
Su Ding wanted to take care of the two battalions of the Han army, Shi Wengong naturally didn't have any ideas, but he was very concerned about Su Ding's previous analysis.
According to the comprehensive information obtained from the surrender of troops, among the recruits in Wang Jingcheng, there were 10,000 cavalrymen who came, and it was Li Ziqian who held all the horses in the horse farms in various places in his hands, so that this horse army was created from scratch.
This recruit far outnumbered the Lost Cavalry, but it had a fatal weakness. That is, the vast majority of these people, who have only been paid for half a year. Even if all of them were dispatched, Shi Wengong would have the certainty of defeating this group.
At this time, although Su Ding's words were full, Shi Wengong didn't want to frustrate his spirit, meditated for a while, nodded his head, and instructed this brother a few words, and saw Su Ding overjoyed.
To say that the 2,500 mixed cavalry composed of the former Great Song Dynasty Forbidden Army and the former Goryeo Jing Army swooped down on the more than 4,000 miscellaneous troops of the Great Benevolent Kingdom, it is impossible to have any suspense.
Who knows, the scene that should have come naturally, because of the latter's abnormal reaction, suddenly became confusing.
It turned out that when the deafening sound of horses' hooves resounded between heaven and earth, any prey would make a normal emergency response. However, this group of engineering troops did not show the vigilance they should have at all, except for sending scouts to contact them step by step, the others were calm and what to do, and they did not have the consciousness of being attacked at all. Even the sailors who came to meet them were panicked enough, but they were as if nothing had happened.
Shi Wengong, who was watching the battle on the high ground, opened his mouth in surprise when he saw this scene, and the abnormal reaction of the enemy really made him feel like he couldn't figure out the opponent's path.
If you are not alarmed in danger, you will have a battle! Could it be that this group of people is really the "bait" used to seduce him Shi Wengong to take the bait?
No, no!
To be a bait, you also have to have acting skills! Otherwise, before lifting the table, there should always be some perfunctory at least. When there is no movement around, the other party is still so calm, but it makes people feel abnormal! Isn't it...... Think of yourself as an ally?
Shi Wengong's speculation was once again confirmed.
The miscellaneous soldiers in this group of miscellaneous soldiers really live up to their name. It wasn't until hundreds of feet away that the scouts were ambushed and executed, and the team suddenly and quickly began to bombard the camp from the outside in. The 4,000 men and horses, regardless of their status, all rushed to the river.
Just kidding, even Minzhuang, who has never been on the battlefield, knows that two legs on flat ground can't outrun four legs no matter what, and only the Han River in front of them can save their lives.
The people who persuaded them to calm down just now were not calm, and the sailors who were responsible for receiving reinforcements were even more panicked. At this time, seeing that the situation is not good, he immediately wants to slip away. But more and more friendly troops rushed to the boats, and in an instant, four or five small boats sank in the icy river because they could not bear the desire of too many people to survive.
The navy originally hoped to take as many friendly troops across the river as possible, after all, everyone belonged to the same camp, and it was not a big thing to do if they didn't save themselves. At present, the frantic actions of the friendly troops have seriously threatened their safety, and at this time, almost all the boatmen have only one thought left in their hearts, and that is to flee for their lives.
The only lifesaver is to escape, how can the friends who have been left behind be willing? The two teams that were originally close to each other began to become subtle because of the death proposition of "you live, or I live", not who drew the knife first to attack each other, and a farce of local cannibalism was grandly staged at the moment when the enemy was present.
Also, the gene of sharing hatred and overcoming difficulties together will always be engraved in the bloodline of the nation that has withstood thousands of years of hardships, and as the constant darling of different bosses in various eras, it is obvious that Goryeo does not have such a tradition.
"The Goryeo battalion grabs the ship! Han Jun follow me! ”
Su Ding's shouts were almost complete with the battle, and although as a commander, he had many options to pass on the military order, but he still chose this primitive way to express his excitement.
He didn't brag, even if the Fan Luo army only used half of the army, he still managed to solve the current situation in half an hour, although in the end there were still twenty or thirty ships successfully escaped to the north bank of the Han River, but the ships captured by Su Ding this time were barely able to build a pontoon bridge.
That's enough! The key to this battle is not how many enemies are annihilated, nor how many enemies are captured, but whether the army can quickly pass through the Han River, so Su Ding has 60% of the troops in his hands to seize ships. He only took a thousand Han army knights with him, and pressed this 4,000-strong Goryeo army to chase and fight fiercely.
After the battle, Su Ding waved his arms to the high ground in the distance quite excitedly, although he couldn't see Shi Wengong's unhappy face at all.
Yes, at this time, Shi Wengong did not have a trace of a smile on his face, but his heart sank straight down as if he had been tied to a stone.
Although the ending of this group of people proves that they are not acting, from the kind of familiar reaction they have when they first see themselves, Shi Wengong keenly discovers a hidden danger that makes people feel like they are stuck in their throats, is it ...... On the south bank of the Han River, there is really a cavalry hidden that has not been discovered by your own scouts?
Is this really a game made by the Koreans? R1152
