Chapter 641: Wu Zi Banner
I was worried that the friendly cavalry was unreliable, so I asked the little slave to take all the soldiers of the artillery battalion, cut down branches, and install them on the artillery carriage, as many as they could, in case the cavalry guarding could not block the enemy's impact, we could also throw fire and burning branches down as cover to prevent the cavalry from sticking to the face.
I returned to the top of the hill, ran around again, promulgated the established tactics, and at the north gate, let the largest mixed infantry and cavalry brigade that arrived last take cover, pretending to be going to meet the men and horses coming out of the city, and the infantry of the other ten brigades did not move, and stationed at the top of the crater, each finding a position, preparing to cut off the rear route of the enemy's deserters (this will only happen if we win, and the infantry will not need it anyway). )
All the cavalry assembled from the periphery of the crater to the side of the artillery battalion, and collected the branches when they went up the mountain.
About half an hour after the order, the cavalry arrived one after another, and I divided them into two teams, the left and right, and in order to avoid burning each other, they formed a three-tiered long snake formation, and the three teams of men and horses attacked in turn, alternately covering the advance.
After the arrangement was completed, the artillery battalion began to climb the mountain, and when it came to the top of the mountain, I explained to the commanders of the cavalry that even if it was blocked by the enemy, the route of travel would never allow detours, and the detours would be chaotic, even if it was to fight to the death with the enemy, it would take this straight line to the north gate of Erqi City.
Because the cavalry knew that it was the battle of King Qin, and the legendary "God of War Riding the Wind" who commanded this battle, they were very enthusiastic, saying that they would definitely be able to complete the task.
But we can't go down the mountain yet, and the route down the mountain will be discovered by the enemy.
I'll hand over the command of the artillery battalion here to Bingbing and the little slaves, and let them collect branches first, I can't be here, I have to go to the north.
Rounding to the north, the team here is ready to go down the mountain to respond, through the phase qi technique, I saw a large number of people in the city, and they have also been ready to break through in the north, but not in a hurry, I stared at the leader's apricot yellow flag, this commander is very handy, there is a special team of flag bearers, four people, like carrying a sedan chair, carrying a large flag more than ten meters high, with a "Hao" word written on it.
"Why Hao? Isn't your surname Lee?" I asked puzzled, this commander, called Li Yuanhao, is also a famous man in history, the founding emperor of Western Xia.
"To avoid my reputation on the peak, Li Shimin." Li Yuanhao said coldly, this person looks very ruthless, I am afraid that his face is born from the heart, although he is an emperor, but he is not orthodox after all.
"Do you mind if I change it?" I asked with a smile.
He's smart: "Change it to 'Wu'?"
I nodded, the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, it is better to use his name, it is better to use mine.
"Yes, but I have one condition, if I win this battle, please ask Lord Wu to ask Your Majesty for a fief on my behalf, and add a coffin to the knight."
I still want to be the emperor of the soil.
"No problem, as long as you are loyal to the court and do not associate with the rebels, you can say anything." I took the opportunity to warn him, all benefits are premised, Li Yuanhao smiled and did not answer.
I asked people to put down the banner, and blocked the horizontal bar in the middle of the word "Hao" with a cloth of the same color, so that there was no trace from a distance, only a "Wu" character could be seen, four people lifted, the movement speed was too slow, I requisitioned a carriage that hit the grain and grass, fixed the modified flag on the car, and selected fifty cavalrymen with loud voices, responsible for guarding the banner, and shouted slogans, only one sentence: Wu Chengfeng is coming!
That's it.
After making preparations, I used the Soul Detention Order to contact Zheng Bingbing: "You go to the position in the northeast and let them fire three cannons."
There is no use of traditional artillery, and they are transporting the cannon to the mountain, and it is estimated that they are only halfway up the mountain at this moment, and they are using their artillery to prevent our artillery battalion from being exposed in advance.
Bingbing said yes, she used the Wind Technique, so three minutes later, I heard three cannon shots from the flanks.
After the cannon fire, the north gate opened, and a cavalry team rushed out, and on our side, we also began to charge, with cavalry and banners as the vanguard, killing the plain.
I sat on the flag car, wearing a white impermanent uniform, wearing a high hat, the car was a little bumpy, I had to hold the flagpole, although the action was a little unsightly, but it didn't matter, after the two sides fought, the speed would naturally slow down.
