Chapter 277: Southern Song Dynasty Mobile Defense Master: Meng Hui
However, whether you believe it or not, it is most likely unbelievable to surrender when the enemy is strong and we are weak. Moreover, most of the admirals who capsized in the Yangtze River like him were not convinced, so they couldn't believe it.
Therefore, according to the normal routine, of course, the tens of thousands of soldiers who crossed the river were slaughtered first, and then a series of victories were fought to further establish the image of our army as strong and invincible, and to further stimulate his anxiety about preserving the race.
In short, he is also stubborn now, and it is impossible for him to ask for information, so he will be locked up for a while.
……
Well, of course, it's to distribute the grain to the porters on the dock. If it weren't for the fact that they were pulling the grain ship during the rout, it was unknown how many of these runaway grain ships would have been able to survive in this rapid. Of course, it is not that they have a high level of consciousness, but that the poor people instinctively cherish food.
In short, they can be regarded as having made great contributions, if they don't all have small families, Wang Qiang would want to include them all in the painting. However, they have a more important task, which is to publicize the return of King Wu everywhere.
As for now, of course, it is to go straight to Yichang and block the group of defeated soldiers. Although Wang Qiang didn't see Gan Ning's ability in the cabin, he had no doubts.
Before the advent of steam-powered warships, naval and water warfare was definitely a high-tech activity, and each ship was a moving battlefield, and the significance of numbers was far less than that on land. That's why there are so many legendary pirate legends. If one navy can't catch up with pirates, ten ships can't catch up either, and as a result, it is rumored that pirates will defeat the navy with one enemy and ten to encircle and suppress it. This is not exactly bragging, after all, the consumption of ten ships is there.
Then Hu Ximei's front report also came: "Yichang is mobilizing boats to prepare to cross the river, and a total of more than 300 large, medium and small boats are in place." ”
Wang Qiang was anxious: "General Gan? ”
Gan Ning sneered: "Compared with Jiangling Jingzhou, Yichang is not a front-line town, but there are so many ships, and it really deserves to be a place guarded by big officials!" We will drag him for one night, even if this Song Dynasty is a pig, we should mobilize a chasing army in one night, if it is me, only 800 elite cavalry can kill these tens of thousands of defeated soldiers who have run out of food! ”
Yang Guang also said in a deep voice: "Xichuan has been lost, and this Song Dynasty can't hold on for long, so let's see if they still have any." ”
……
At this time, Dou Wuji in the rear base camp not only received the beacon smoke of Zigui's accident, but also received the beacon smoke from Yichang.
The information transmitted by Fengyan is limited, but as long as he knows that something happened in both places at the first time, then Dou Wuji can reverie in the worst direction: that is, the other party is super strong, and he can't stop them from converging with the Song Dynasty, and his own plot that has been in business for a hundred years will encounter unprecedented challenges.
Dou Wuji immediately transmitted and issued a national war mobilization order, and began to make all-out preparations for war from the mainland of Northeast Asia and even the occupied Chinese territories.
……
It will be late, the brocade sailboat will arrive in Yichang down the river, at this time the torches on the bank of the Yichang River are camped for more than ten miles, and the boat torches on the river are like stars on the water. As for the north side of the river, there are tens of thousands of defeated soldiers guarding the river waiting for rescue.
Such a huge battle, even if Gan Ning saw it, he couldn't help but gasp: "Ge Laozi drops!" ”
Wang Qiang was also secretly frightened, this is no better than in the Three Gorges, where the river is wide, there are many other boats, and it is difficult to dodge the opposite side of the rampage.
At this moment, a string of torches and long dragons appeared in the east in the lower reaches of the south bank of the Yangtze River, and the tens of thousands of defeated soldiers were all banged!
Wang Qiang was pleasantly surprised: "The troops of the Song Dynasty? ”
Gan Ning breathed a sigh of relief and laughed: "The soldier is fast!" Than the old ...... I'm expecting it even faster, huh? There was still such a person in the Song Dynasty? ”
The next moment, Hu Ximei in front of him sent a report: "There are a total of 2,000 cavalry, and the flag of the commander has the word Meng written on it!" ”
"A general surnamed Meng?"
Of course, Wang Qiang is confused, for the famous general of the Song Dynasty, Wang Qiang only knows the Yang general Mu Guiying of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the Southern Song Dynasty only knows one Yue Fei, and the others are the heroes of Liangshan in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Wang Qiang asked in surprise: "The one who dares to charge tens of thousands of soldiers with 2,000 cavalry must be a famous general, right?" ”
Su Su frowned: "According to this point in time of the Song-Mongolian War, Yue Fei is long gone, if this person's surname is Meng, then it can only be Meng Hui, the grandson of Yue Fei's general Meng Lin, one of the masters of mobile defense in the Southern Song Dynasty said that if he doesn't die of illness early, if there is no stupid guy like Jia Yidao, the Southern Song Dynasty - then it is not clear." ”
Yang Guang laughed: "If the rise and fall of a dynasty is pinned on two or three key figures, then this dynasty will never last long like an immature company, then let's see if this character is a famous general." ”
As a result, Gan Ning also stopped the impact action, and while watching the situation, he asked the brothers in the paddle cabin to hurry up their time to eat and rest, while waiting for the night to be darker to facilitate the night attack.
At this time, both the ferries on the river and the defeated soldiers on the river bank began to panic, and when the ferry docked, the hundreds or thousands of defeated soldiers on the river rushed to the boat, and the officers on the shore could not stop the riot.
Gan Ning shook his head and sighed with a smile: "Wang Qiang, do you know what it means to break the cauldron and sink the boat?" ”
Wang Qiang was surprised: "I know! It is only after being forced to the river to smash the pot and boat that cuts off the way of life that the defeated soldiers will fight to the death. ”
Gan Ning smiled: "That's it!" Although these tens of thousands of people ran hundreds of miles without eating two meals, as long as they were determined to fight to the death, it was not necessarily what these two thousand cavalry could eat. ”
Yang Guang said with a smile: "If the boat is really smashed, the two thousand cavalry will not rush and wait for the large army behind, anyway, these soldiers will not escape death after all." ”
Then Gan Ning smiled even more happily: "Look at the small ferry boat used for fishing, it can only hold ten people, and it is desperately squeezed into twenty, Lao Tzu will wait for them to fill it first, and then see how many of them can cross the river!" ”
Finally, the long dragon of horses' hooves roared in the distance, but did not rush to charge, but slowed down the horses and soldiers to dismount and wait for the rear to assemble.
Gan Ning smiled: "Not bad! This is to give the horses a break and relax, and at the same time put psychological pressure on the defeated soldiers! ”
Su Su smiled: "It's all directly rushed in the movie!" ”
Sure enough, the commotion on the riverside intensified, and a small boat full of people capsized directly in the push.
At this moment, the officer was furious, immediately killed hundreds of rioting soldiers, and then quickly regrouped the formation, and the momentum of the defeated army increased sharply.
Gan Ningqi said: "It's really worthy of being an elite, and when you die, you actually realized a little?" ”
At this moment, Sister Wang appeared holding the pipa: "How can you watch from the wall?" Try Zhaojun's new tune! ”
