Chapter 270: 100-year-old female general She Taijun (3)
The Northern Liao army would not go back to the next city, they would continue to fight until the Northern Song Dynasty dispatched an army of 100,000, or they were defeated by a certain general and suffered some defeats, and then they would withdraw their troops back to Liao, which was their usual practice.
Because they were right, the Song army would not chase after them, and they would not chase them into the territory of the Liao State to fight them.
How to describe it?
After signing some agreements and New Year's coins, the Liao State could actually invade the customs from time to time, as long as it did not attack on a large scale.
But the Northern Song Dynasty couldn't.
The Northern Song Dynasty was worried that it would annoy the Liao State, so it issued an early order not to allow its own generals to invade the territory of the Liao State without an order.
Of course, no one actually has the ability.
But no matter what, the situation of the Northern Song Dynasty suppressing military force with literature did restrict the free play of the Northern Song Dynasty generals to a large extent, so that in many cases, they were obviously capable of defeating the opponent's army, but they could not defeat the opponent at all.
In this way, some people may feel that it is inconsistent, but in fact it is not contradictory, and they can defeat each other in the case of full play, but the current generals of the Northern Song Dynasty have no way at all, or they have no right to play at all.
In many cases, the commander of the army even has to listen to the orders of the above-mentioned people, and the generals do not have any free exercise of the power to lead the troops, which is no different from talking about the troops on paper.
Without freedom, how can the weak defeat the strong?
There are no examples in history of defeating the strong with the weak, but there is no time when they are dealt with openly, they are all taking the path of the treacherous way of soldiers, and there is no trickery of war without freedom, and naturally there is no such thing as defeating the strong with the weak, and can only be confronted head-on.
But cavalry and infantry are not the same.
It's normal to fail from time to time.
……
On the outskirts of Zhending Prefecture, inside the barracks
As soon as the arbor entered, he was recognized.
Several generals hurried out to greet them, the generals of the Yang family army often die in battle, and they will change one every few years, but this old lady is like a needle in the sea, and she has been standing, so they may not know the new Yang general, but they will definitely not know this old lady She.
"Old lady, what are you?"
Yang Huilong walked out quickly and asked puzzled.
The huge Yang family, of course, is not only in the vein of She Lao Taijun, more than half of the generals in the Yang family army are surnamed Yang, and most of them are side branches of the Yang family.
Therefore, this can be called Yang Jiajun.
"The Liao soldiers invaded the pass, you are willing to accompany me to kill the enemy, my grandson died in battle, and the old body has to avenge the blood hatred.
There is no need to worry about the transfer of troops, the dragon head crutch is here, if Taizu comes in person, he will be worry-free. ”
The reason why Qiao Mu rode a horse also had to take this dragon head crutch with him, that is, because the origin of this dragon head crutch was very extraordinary, and it was given by Emperor Taizu in the last edict, although it was not as good as another sword that could kill the ministers of the court, but it also had the effect of being like me in person, and it was not a problem to transfer troops.
This is also the confidence of the original on the battlefield.
If there is no crutch, then the original body may not be qualified to lead soldiers to the battlefield at all, after all, women on the battlefield have never been accepted.
"Old lady, we did receive an urgent report from Hejian Mansion and are about to leave, but what are you doing here, if you go with us and accidentally have an accident, how should we explain to a few dead General Yang."
Cui Linsong also hurriedly persuaded.
Although the old lady was brave and good at fighting when she was young, and even an outstanding female general in the troubled times, after all, it was when she was young, in her thirties, in her twenties, and now she is a hundred years old.
"Why, you're going to have to compete with me.
Is it a test of the old body's force?
That's fine, come on! ”
Qiao Mu immediately poked his crutches down, posed in the starting posture of Tai Chi, and said with a cold face.
"Old lady, how dare we compare with you.
But this ......"
Cui Linsong looked at the surrounding lieutenants with a very embarrassed face, hoping that they could help and persuade the old lady, but the side was stupid, how could he know how to persuade him, so he could only look around with scattered eyes and did not speak.
"Well, nothing but that!
I'm living so old, do I care about living so many years less, as long as I kill one more Liao soldier when I go to the battlefield now, it's all earned.
Aren't you going to support the Kama Province?
I'll go with you, and when the time comes, you will listen to my orders, by the way, have you sent someone to find out what the current situation of the defense of Hejian Mansion is? ”
Arbor continued to show his determination.
Said that he had to go.
And began to meddle in military affairs and ask about military intelligence.
The lieutenant generals who came around could only look at each other and smile bitterly, and at the same time decided that when they went to the battlefield, they had to arrange the old lady in the back, so that the old lady could just wait and see, and it would be good to have a good time.
At this time, no one still thinks that Mrs. She can really go to the battlefield to kill the enemy at this time.
Just as he was thinking about how to arrange Old Taijun She next, a scout rode over quickly:
"Report! Report! Hejian Mansion is broken!
The Liao army is rushing to Zhending! ”
"What?"
At this moment, the lieutenants didn't care about considering Qiao Mu's problem, so they hurriedly pulled the scout to their side and asked in detail.
Qiao Mu was also listening on the side.
After listening to it, he understood the situation and hurriedly asked:
"Huilong, if there is no accident, the Liao army should go from the Qilian Valley, that side is the closest to our side, we can take a shortcut nearby, maybe we don't have to wait for the Liao army to come.
Rush over there first and fortify in advance! ”
"Old lady, there are not so many of us.
There are only 5,000 people on our side, and it is enough to defend the city, let alone fortify and encircle it! ”
Yang Huilong replied helplessly.
They also wanted to fortify, but their troops were insufficient, and they were not enough to surround and kill 10,000 Liao troops in that valley, and if they went, and failed to surround and kill the Liao army in the valley, when those Liao troops left the valley, then Zhendingfu would not have any army to defend the city.
At that time, the people will be even more miserable.
It's better to defend the city honestly.
"It's okay, I have a way, I don't need too many people, you transfer 300 soldiers to me, and then help me recruit 500 people and 500 craftsmen.
I have something to prepare.
Even if you can't keep the Liao army, you can still make them suffer a lot of vitality over there, and when the time comes, it will be a little easier for you to defend Zhending City, and there will be fewer casualties. ”
Qiao Mu obviously had an idea at this time.
There is a shortage of people and things.
That's right, Arbor intends to use black powder.
At this time, the gunpowder was still in the embryonic state, the power was not very strong, almost no army used, and the later black powder could not be compared at all, and it may not even be comparable to the power of fireworks and firecrackers in modern society, but because of this, the Liao army would not be too wary of this thing, and temporarily made a batch of gunpowder into land mines, soil grenades or something to attack, the effect is absolutely good.
