Chapter 272: Coquettish Move
The next day it was not dawn.
Mu Tianbo and Qin Liangyu's army was launched.
For fear of exposure, the soldiers did not make a fire to cook since yesterday's dinner, and all they ate was dry food. Eating dry food is naturally not as comfortable as hot food, which can be seen from the complaints of the soldiers under Mu Tianbo's command.
Compared to the noisy soldiers under his command, Qin Liangyu's white pole soldiers did not say a word, and the marching speed was still very fast.
Looking at the loose formation under his command, the whining echoed through the valley like flies.
Mu Tianbo's face was like fire.
This is the so-called elite soldiers under his command.
There is no harm without comparison, and the young Mu Tianbo feels that he has been greatly hurt.
Fortunately, the journey to Fenghua City was not far, and at noon, the army stopped not far from the Mosha River to the east of Fenghua.
Mu Tianbo took Na Song to find Qin Liangyu.
"General Qin, there are about five miles ahead of you is the Mosha River, and after the Mosha River is Fenghua."
"I have already sent people to investigate, and Pu Ming has deployed a lot of manpower on the other side of the river, and it may not be easy to force the crossing. What does Grandpa think? Qin Liangyu nodded and asked Mu Tianbo what he thought about this.
"I heard Na Song say that the east and south sides of Fenghua are close to the river, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We can go around to the upper reaches of the river and launch an attack from the north and west at the same time, and it will not be difficult to capture Fenghua. ”
"Good! In this case, the task of the main attack will be entrusted to us, and you will take the soldiers to guard the south and east sides. Just prevent the reputation from escaping. Qin Liangyu's words revealed confidence, as if he had expected to win this battle.
"This, General Qin, I have five thousand people under my command, just to prevent them from escaping. Isn't it overkill? Mu Tianbo was a little dissatisfied with Qin Liangyu's arrangement.
"Grandpa, once during the Rebellion of Luxury, I had contact with Napu's reputation. The native soldiers under this man's command are extremely good at fighting and are not afraid of death. But at the same time, my white pole soldiers also have a certain understanding of them. So it's best to deal with them with white pole soldiers. Moreover, the task of guarding the east and south sides is equally important, there are mountains all around, and if they are allowed to break through and burrow into the mountains, I am afraid it will be difficult to find.
This battle is related to the future safety of southern Yunnan, and grandpa should not think it is a trivial matter. Whether he can finish the battle depends on the grandfather! ”
Qin Liangyu's words were sincere and tactful, although Mu Tianbo still felt that her arrangement was a little inappropriate, but he still nodded and agreed.
Qin Liangyu's arrangement was naturally well thought out, she didn't have any opinions about Mu Tianbo, she simply felt that the five thousand soldiers under Mu Tianbo's command were not up to the task. Without him, she has seen all aspects of military discipline, morale, and physical fitness of these people along the way.
Not to mention five thousand, it is eight thousand, and if the reputation of the city is defended, they will definitely lose a lot.
Besides, it's hard to hear, even if ordinary soldiers are not important, Mu Tianbo is a prince of the country, if something happens, it is not something that she, a small soldier, can afford!
Now that the strategy has been discussed, the next step is to go our separate ways.
Mu Tianbo divided the five thousand soldiers under his command into two parts, two thousand five hundred each.
One was stationed on the east side of the Yuanjiang River, and the other was to cross the river downstream and block the south side of the Qingshui River.
Qin Liangyu, on the other hand, directly led his troops to cross the river upstream and launched an attack from the west and north sides.
This move is intended to block the people of Pu Fame in Fenghua, and if Pu Fame and Sha Yuan can be annihilated, this turmoil will basically be half subsided.
Pu is known for being very vigilant, but not very well defended. There were no patrolling soldiers at least ten miles upstream.
Qin Liangyu led his troops to more than ten miles upstream, found a place where the water flow was a little slower, and crossed the river on a bamboo raft.
But 5,000 soldiers crossed the river halfway through the river and an accident occurred.
A soldier made a mistake when controlling the bamboo raft, slipped his foot, and fell into the river, but fortunately, the soldier was good at water and swam to the shore in time, but the bamboo raft that was too late to catch it floated downstream along the river.
After listening to the report, Qin Liangyu's face became ugly. If someone downstream finds the raft and comes up to check it, they will have nowhere to hide, and it will definitely make the attack more difficult.
"Xianglin, how many people have already crossed the river?"
"Nearly two thousand, and counting."
"You don't have to wait any longer, you quickly lead them to the west side of Fenghua, wait three miles outside the city, and surround them without fighting. If they don't find out, when my side launches an attack, you will attack Fenghua at the same time. If they find you, you can attack directly, just contain it, and watch out for casualties! ”
"Yes! Mother. ”
Ma Xianglin received the order, hurriedly crossed the river and took the soldiers who had already crossed the river into Ma'anshan.
The name was given to the fact that each soldier was equipped with a spear with a white pole. But this spear is not an ordinary spear, but a hook with a blade on the top and a hard iron ring on the bottom, which can be cut and pulled in battle, and the ring can be used as a hammer weapon.
When necessary, dozens of spears can be used as a tool to climb the wall over the mountain, and the cliff can be climbed instantly, which is very suitable for mountain combat.
On a normal march, the superiority of the white pole soldiers is not yet reflected. And at this time, when it was time to fight, the advantages of the white pole soldiers were brought into full play. Two thousand white-pole soldiers marched quickly in Ma'anshan, as if walking on the ground. Rush towards the intended location.
But what was supposed to happen was destined to happen, and soldiers patrolling downstream spotted a bamboo raft floating downstream.
"Azha! You see, what is that? A soldier who was urinating by the river shouted.
The soldier known as Aza also came over when he heard this, and when he saw it, it was actually a bamboo raft.
"Isn't it just a bamboo raft? What a fuss, haven't you seen it? ”
"Fuck you, how come I haven't seen it, but how can there be a bamboo raft floating down?"
"Huh?" Aza was also stunned for a moment. "Could it be that the raft in some village upstream is not tethered?"
"No way, you see this bamboo is brightly colored, it is clear that it has just been made, and it has not been dried. Wrong! There must be someone upstream crossing the river! ”
As soon as he said this, Aza became nervous.
"It's really possible, what now?"
"What to do? I'll go back and deliver the message, and you can go upstream and have a look. ”
"Good!"
After saying that, he didn't talk nonsense, as soon as his pants were mentioned, he ran away.
Seeing him walk away, Aza froze.
I'm going to be your mother, you go back and report the news, let me investigate. I'm not afraid of death, am I?
But he thought so, and reluctantly slowly touched upstream.
After walking for about a few miles, he heard the sound of people talking upstream, and he hid behind a tree and looked north. I saw a group of soldiers armed with white spears crossing the river. Aza was terrified.
Damn!
There are enemies!
There are so many people, and they still spy on a fart!
Run!
Aza didn't hesitate or look back and ran downstream.
Sou!
A bow and arrow were shot at the trunk of a tree at his side.
It's been discovered!
Experienced in dodging enemy bows and arrows, Aza did not hesitate to take a step towards where he had just shot, and this step saved his life. Another arrow flew past him with a whistling motion.
Aza was not slow at all, and escaped from the range of his bow and arrows in a coquettish manner like a snake.
When he felt that he had escaped far enough, Aza breathed a sigh of relief and began to continue the straight sprint.
And behind him, the three soldiers in charge of guarding looked embarrassed and quickly came to Qin Liangyu.
"General, we've been spotted. Didn't keep it! ”
Qin Liangyu frowned, wanting to get angry, but he still held back.
After crossing the river, the queue was slightly reorganized and ran directly downstream along the river beach.
Now that it has been discovered, there is no need to hide it.
Even if it is a real one, the white pole soldiers who dominate the world are really not afraid of anyone!
Aza was running fast, and he felt that he was running faster than he had been caught peeking at a widow in the village taking a shower last year. When he saw the wall of Fenghua, he knew that he had survived temporarily.
And the companion he had just peed on had already found his reputation.
"Master, it's not good! I was just patrolling when I spotted a bamboo raft floating downstream! And it's new! There must be someone crossing the river upstream! ”
"What?" Pu Mingming, who was sitting leisurely in a chair and drinking tea, stood up suddenly. "Is the message accurate?"
"It's true, I've already sent Aza to the upstream to investigate!"
Pu Ming gave him a strange look, if there was really an enemy, would Aza come back?
"Pass the order, be on alert all the way! In addition, inform Lord Sha Yuan. Pu Mingsheng immediately commanded his subordinates. Then go outside.
When he walked to the door, he looked back at the person who had reported the news.
"Don't fucking stand still! Come with me and take someone to the north. ”
Pu Mingsheng is going to pick up Aza, and if he can come back safely, at least he can bring accurate information about the other party.
Look at what kind of troops the opponent is and how many troops there are, so as to decide whether to fight or flee.
As soon as he walked out of the walled city with his men, he saw Aza running back with a shout.
"There are enemies upstream!"
