Chapter 324: Wang Qi!
No matter how much planning, no matter how much grain, no matter how many people, no matter how many ordnance, no matter how much paper on paper, the thoughts of the generals along the way, the suspicions of the generals along the way......
No matter how much there is, no matter how much there is,
ultimately
still has to fall into the real bloody face.
can't hide,
I can't escape.
Throughout the ages, even though there are many examples of soldiers destroying the country without blood, or the whole country has surrendered to the whole country, no one is a man, but in fact, blood has been shed, but it has been shed early.
The rain stopped,
clear
At noon,
In the Xuehaiguan military village, more than 12,000 cavalry went out of the village, among them, the savage rode 3,000 for the front army, and the savage king, who had stirred up the peace of the land of the Sanjin Dynasty, was in the array;
In addition, Jin Shuke and Brother Ke Yandong each have three battalions of soldiers and horses as the rear army, not because Uncle Zheng deliberately consumes the barbarian soldiers, but because in terms of loyalty and combat effectiveness, the barbarian soldiers are the most trustworthy.
This battle,
As the opening battle of Vachu,
Only win, not lose!
The cavalry team galloped like thunder, and after bypassing Dongshan Fort, they went all the way to the south, straight into the heart of the Chu people's military fortress before the Zhennan Pass!
The wolf smoke rose first from Dongshan Fort,
This is not a swallow to explore the horse,
This is the army of swallows!
forthwith
The beacons of all the military forts and the military villages were all lit,
This also marks the official start of the national war between Yan Chu, the two great powers in the East!
……
Zhennan Pass, General's Mansion.
The young general, dressed in military uniform, walked out of the hall and asked the messenger who was kneeling on the ground in front of him:
"How many soldiers and horses are coming?"
The wolf smoke is not only a function of early warning, the color and thickness of the wolf smoke can also convey the scale and extent of the enemy attack.
"Returning to the general, pass the message from the front, enter the Yan army, and ride around."
"Ten thousand horses?"
General Nian frowned, and stretched out his hand to push away the soldiers who were standing beside him and were helping him take care of the silver tassels on his armor, "Just ten thousand horses?" ”
"Report !!!"
The second round of messengers arrived:
"The Yan cavalry is coming to the south pass of our town!"
"Fart's Zhennanguan, they're going to Yangshanzhai."
Nian Yao picked up his saber and ordered:
"Drumming and passing the generals, the city tower is discussing."
The city tower is the north city wall tower of the south pass of the town.
There, you can clearly see the wolf smoke, and you can also gain insight into the changes in the military situation as soon as possible.
It's a game of chess,
He sat on the south side,
Sitting on the north side is Tian Wujing,
Play against such opponents,
Nian Yao didn't dare to be slack and sloppy.
……
The cavalry of the Snow Customs was one man and two horses, so they did not stop and went straight to the Yangshan cottage;
The moment the wolf smoke rose, it actually meant the opening of this battle, even if the king of Jingnan led all the armies to suppress the formation, but Uncle Zheng did not dare to be the general of the opposite Great Chu.
Finally, before dusk, Yang Shanzhai appeared in the field of vision of the army.
Liang Cheng immediately ordered the sentry cavalry to be released, and one thousand horsemen on the left and right pressed forward, and the rest of the soldiers and horses, half resting and eating, and half picking up shovels and starting to dig.
The sacks, however, had been prepared well in advance, and had been brought directly from the camp of the heavy men.
Uncle Zheng rode Pixiu this time;
Jin Jia,
I'm not embarrassed to wear it,
But Pixiu, under the eyes of all the soldiers and horses, is really embarrassed to stay in the village.
And when rushing to the village, the most need for martial encouragement, Uncle Zheng, as the mascot, is the cohesion of the morale of this army of soldiers and horses, so it is naturally more conspicuous.
In front of the village, the terrain is already low-lying, and even if it is sunny today, there is still a swamp and mud.
And firstly, he received a wolf smoke warning in advance, and secondly, he saw it with his own eyes, so the rattan armor soldiers in the central cottage immediately began to operate, preparing for defense with all their might.
……
Chi Mingyi stood on the high platform, giving orders constantly, and below, a column of rattan armor soldiers was arming in an orderly manner.
From where he was standing, looking north, he could see a black shadow, but the problem was that the shadow was much thinner than he had imagined.
"Report, there is a Yan army outside the West Camp!"
"Report, there is a Yan army outside Dongying!"
Chi Mingyi immediately said: "Tell the east and west battalions to be on guard, it's just a feint attack by the Yan people, it's not a big deal." ”
"Whoa!"
"Whoa!"
Chi Mingyi was right, the two cavalry were indeed just feints, running up and yo-yo, shooting a few arrows by the way, and saying hello.
And on the side of the regular army,
The soldiers who had eaten began to replace the soil they had dug up and continued to fill the bags.
The earthen bag has been gradually erected.
On Uncle Zheng's side, someone had set up a small tent for him, and he had already laid down in it, closed his eyes, and rested.
The rest of the soldiers and horses, under the command of Liang Cheng, completed the deployment task before nightfall.
The Yan people fight wars, and they have such a spirit here, and on the side of the Snow Customs, because of their uncle's relationship, from the sergeant to the generals at all levels, they also have such a momentum.
everyone
The digging of the soil, the boiling of the water, the rest of the rest, is obviously a war, but there is a leisure in the spring outing.
But where the army is armed,
If you can do it without chaos, you can already be regarded as a combatable soldier;
If you can be calm, it will definitely be elite.
War horses are all around, and many people simply lie on horseback when they rest.
After nightfall, every two hours, more than 2,000 horsemen sent out more than 2,000 horsemen to return, went to the periphery of the Yangshan cottage to go around, shoot arrows, beat torches, shout, shout, and even sang the ballad of the desert barbarians.
Then, there is the shift change.
Those who have rested immediately get on their horses and get back on again, and those who come back continue to rest.
The movement of soldiers and horses, and the trampling of the hooves of war horses, is not insignificant.
But all the soldiers in it slept peacefully, and when the war was imminent, they all knew how to save their energy.
War horses need to store horsepower, and people, in fact, are the same.
And this kind of non-stop harassment at night, the strategy of exhausting the soldiers is secondary, and the main purpose is to prevent the defenders in the central cottage from carrying out night attacks.
This is a common trick used by Uncle Zheng when he started his family, so he is extremely cautious in guarding against this.
In the direction of the Chu army's fortress in the rest of the place, Liang Cheng only sent some sentry cavalry as a guard, and did not make a big fuss to take precautions.
Because according to the time, at this time, the soldiers and horses of the Yan army should have been in place for the king and the king.
Mo said that the Chu army wanted to come to a "lock dragon" formation, that is, those nimble generals wanted to send troops to steal a hand, and when their soldiers and horses left the village or fort, they would immediately find that a Yan army was already waiting.
Leaving the support of the fortress, the Chu people have to fight with the Yan army in the field, although the combat effectiveness of the soldiers and horses under the Yan army is different, but how to say it, in the field battle, everyone has absolute confidence.
Uncle Zheng slept very well this night, to be exact, he almost returned from the Qing Taizu inspection of the enemy on that day.
After entering the king's tent,
The depression in Uncle Zheng's heart has been dissipated.
In fact, there is already that bit of hypocrisy in my heart, and that bit of hypocrisy lies in a kind of rebellion from my younger brother to my brother who has a strong desire to control.
Lao Tian had even said those words, and Uncle Zheng was naturally happy in his heart.
People have no distractions,
Nature's divine will is accessible,
After eliminating all emotional distractions,
Below,
It is to honestly prepare to fight this battle.
First of all
Sleep well.
These barbarians and savages were accustomed to this kind of noisy and noisy grazing in the past, so in this environment, they could still rest sufficiently, and they could not wait until the next morning, when the big guy saw the refreshed Uncle Zheng stretching his waist there, he had to admire, his own uncle was really calm!
Ah Ming carried the water bladder and poured it while letting Uncle Zheng wash his face.
The water in the bladder is precious.
Because the nearby wells have either been filled in or poisoned, even the stream water is not allowed to drink casually, so the big guys drink their own water from their own water bladders.
Liang Cheng didn't send someone out to find a water source to do anything, anyway, the results of the battle will come out today, if you win, you have everything, if you can't win, then you can only turn the horse's head and withdraw the army, but you can't give the other side the opportunity to rearrange the transfer of the Chu people.
Therefore, in the whole army, only Uncle Zheng can waste drinking water so wantonly.
"Whew......... It was so comfortable to sleep in. ”
"What's more, I slept next door to you yesterday and listened to your snoring." The Juggernaut said angrily while eating naan and drinking water.
He's also weird,
It stands to reason that this master is very pampered in the snow customs on weekdays, but the snoring sound last night was tsk.
"Hahaha."
Uncle Zheng smiled and said:
"Not to mention, this is wearing armor on the battlefield, sleeping is comfortable, and it is easy to sleep deeply."
The battlefield is a place where life and death are faced, and in this environment, all these problems such as depression, mental weakness, and non-existence are gone.
"I won't sleep next to you tomorrow night." Juggernaut said.
Uncle Zheng immediately said: "This can't be done!" If you don't sleep next to me, I can't let go of that snoring. ”
The Sword Master sighed, took a sip of water, and gave another sip of naan.
And at this time,
The sound of the trumpet sounded,
All the soldiers quickly put an end to what they had at hand, put their armor in order, turned over and mounted their horses.
Chongzhai,
It's time to get started!
Three thousand savage cavalry at the front,
The savage king, accompanied by Sang Hu, came to the front of the battle.
He held the knife in his right hand, raised his left hand high, and then, the knife cut through the palm of his left hand, wiping blood on his forehead.
For a time, more than half of the savage cavalry also learned from the savage king, slashing their palms with knives and wiping blood on their foreheads, while the rest of the savages were one step late, but they also completed the ceremony.
"The stars are above, I will wait for you in the depths of the stars, this battle is not for the Holy Clan, but for ourselves, for your family."
The Savage King roared with a hideous face:
"After this battle, you will eat the same food as theirs, drink the same dry water as theirs, and put on armor as fine as theirs.
We will have our own tents, our own houses, our own pastures, and even, our own slaves!
You guys
Will be one by one, the new leader!
You guys
Will have their own family, their own tribe, their own woman!
All of this is up to you now, with the sabers in your hands, with the blood and heads of the enemies in front of you!
Come on,
Warriors of the Holy Clan!
Since birth, we have not been afraid of the cold wind, not afraid of the cold!
Come on,
Warriors of the Holy Clan!
stars
has given us another opportunity,
For the sake of the stars,
For the future,
In order to warm the hot oil tea,
Go to the enemy in front of you,
Vent your anger and roars!!!!!!! ”
In the beginning,
When the Savage King shouted in Savage Dialect, many barbarian soldiers in the rear actually had a look of watching a joke on their faces.
They look down on the savages, they really look down on them.
Some of them were the snow customs that were snatched after beating the wild man;
Most of them, after coming to the Snow Pass, didn't do much else, just went to the snow field to fight wild people.
They even felt that the bird language shouted by the Savage King sounded really funny.
But with the ever-high mood of the Savage King,
The expressions on the faces of these wild people in front of them are also constantly changing,
The barbarian soldiers slowly restrained the banter on their faces and began to become serious.
The sword master looked at Gou Moli in front of him,
said to Uncle Zheng who was standing beside him:
"After all, you let him out."
Uncle Zheng shook his head,
The boots stepped on the ground,
Road:
"No, he'll always be at my feet."
………
A new wolf smoke rose from the central cottage, because they saw that the Yan army was about to rush the village.
And because the Yan army did not encircle the Yangshan Village, the letter riders in the village were free to go out of the village to report to the rear town of Nanguan.
And on the city tower of the north city wall of the south of the town,
Nian Yao, the general with some reddened eyes, received the report.
"What's the matter, only 10,000 horses came in?"
Nian Yao has always been puzzled by the number of Yan troops, but vaguely, there is also a feeling that someone is choking seven inches in the dark.
This is not the situation and development he wants.
"Report, the central cottage has been summoned, and the Yan people have attacked!"
Nian Yao gritted his teeth,
Just all the way to the Yan army, just all the way, is it possible that the Yan people want to rely on this way of soldiers and horses to eat my Yang cottage?
Swallow people's intentions,
Tian Wujing's plan,
What is it?
The fog of the battlefield is still deep;
Nian Yao ordered:
"Ordered several military forts near Yangshanzhai to respond."
Since the current battlefield situation is full of fog, Nian Yao doesn't mind making a "scare the snake" first, and touch the Yanren's calculations first.
however
It doesn't matter if you don't touch it,
This touch is like boiling oil and adding water, and the situation is lively all of a sudden.
In less than half an hour,
Forts of various armies,
Wolf smoke has been raised!
"Report, Xishan Fort has discovered the enemy!"
"Report, Sihezhai has discovered the enemy!"
"Report, Duguzhai has discovered the enemy!"
"Report ..............."
Everywhere and everywhere, the enemy has been discovered!
Of course, Nian Yao couldn't believe that the Yan people would directly start a full-scale attack, no matter how arrogant the Yan people were, it was impossible for them to attack the city on all fronts.
This can only be said that there were originally soldiers and horses of the Yan army on the periphery of the forts and military villages of various routes, and when the Chu army inside had the posture to be dispatched, the Yan army immediately appeared and began to persecute.
They don't take sieges,
But if the Chu army comes out,
They are bound to fight!
"Pass the order, all military forts and military villages, stick to it, and take strict precautions!"
"Whoa!"
At this time, Nian Yao naturally would not be stupid enough to forcibly transfer out the soldiers and horses of the various military forts and military villages, otherwise, a big chaotic battle would be inevitable.
There will be confrontations everywhere, there will be fights everywhere, and the battlefield will be divided into countless pieces.
This should have been a trick to deal with the Yan people, but he didn't think that it would be himself who was going to be divided.
beat
How to fight,
It's really stupid to transfer the army out now, no matter how big the casualties of the Yan people are, it is much more cost-effective than attacking the city!
"Report, Yang Shanzhai letter ride!"
"Shout!"
Nian Yao knows that the fuse of the current situation is the Yan army that first entered the battlefield;
even
Nian Yao had a sense of absurdity,
That is, look at the wolf smoke that was reported before,
To make such a big battle, there is a high probability that the entire Yan army has been dispatched by all departments.
So
These hundreds of thousands of Yan troops, just for which Yan army is pressing the formation?
Who the hell is it?
It's such a big hand!
Who the hell is it?
It's worth Tian Wujing to give him such a big card!
It can't be that the lone Yan army is leading the troops by Tian Wujing himself!
"General, the Yan army in front of my village is playing the 'Zheng' banner!"
"Zheng Ziqi?"
Nian Yao was stunned for a moment,
Don't think about it,
With the word "Zheng", plus this kind of treatment, he immediately knew whose soldiers and horses the Yan army was!
Isn't it the Hirano Uncle of Yan Kingdom,
My own big swallow's concubine!
Although there have always been rumors that the Nanhou of the Yan Kingdom, the current King of Nan, attaches great importance to that Zheng Fan;
But Nian Yao really couldn't believe it,
He would actually do this for that Hirano uncle!
Yan and Chu combined a million armies,
Just to set up a singing stage for that Uncle Hirano?
"Straight lady thief, you are so fucking good to the surnamed Zheng, do you want to press the field yourself!"
General Nian couldn't help but scold.
He admired Tian Wujing and figured out and studied his tactical play, which was no secret in Zhennan Pass.
Therefore, because of this, he was very angry about the attitude of King Jingnan of Yan Kingdom towards Na Pingyebo!
And the deeper reason for this anger is that
His plan is empty!
And vaguely, there is a feeling of panic spreading.
10,000 horsemen, just want to rush out the strict military village garrisoned by 8,000 vine armor soldiers in one day?
He doesn't believe it, he doesn't believe that Yan Ren is really a god descending from the heavens!
But the leader is the one who once went into Chu alone to kidnap the princess, an outlier who has been fighting thousands of miles to win the snow customs and is good at creating miracles.
The confidence in Nian Yao's heart is unstable.
"Report, general, there are Yan soldiers and horses ten miles northwest of my pass!"
"How many?" Nian Yao immediately asked.
"Thirty thousand!"
call
Thirty thousand
Not much.
Dare to approach the south pass of his own town in a grand manner.
be
The defenders of Zhennan Pass are actually more than 60,000, after all, this is a military town, not a city in the traditional sense.
It is the snow customs that is bigger than Zhennan Pass, and most of the households actually live outside the city, and the customs can't accommodate too many people.
However, in the military villages on the east and west sides of Zhennan Pass, there are more than 40,000 forbidden troops of the Great Chu Imperial Family stationed in each place, and there is a large camp behind Zhennan Pass.
Your 10,000 Yan troops went to Chongyang Cottage, Nian Yao can still understand, 30,000 horsemen here dare to come to rush to my town Nanguan!
"Straight lady thief, is it really scared of someone when I was young!"
"General, and ........."
"Say."
"Among the soldiers and horses, it is the royal flag of King Jingnan of Yan Kingdom."
"........." Nian Yao.
——
Northwest of Zhennan Pass,
A galloping cavalry corps came to a halt.
Ahead
It is the Xiongguan of the Chu people, and it is the military village of the Chu people, where the most elite royal forbidden army of the Chu people is stationed.
It was all because of the majestic figure standing in front of the military formation, dressed in gilded armor and riding on Pixiu;
Like the wind blowing from the south in the hot summer,
It's all here,
Rest.
