Chapter 274: Rush (1)

It was getting late, and Gurile opened his eyes, stretched out, and saw that the sheep were all around him, and he got up easily, and got out of the hole in the tree and began to count the sheep.

When he finished counting, he was stunned for a moment, and then counted again.

When he finished counting for the second time, Gurile scratched his head suspiciously, wondering if he had slept for a long time and was a little dazed.

There are no fewer sheep, not only are there no less, but there are two more.

I have fifty sheep in my own herd, and the horses are tied to the side, and I can't remember wrong, so how did these two sheep come out?

He counted again, and was a little dazed to find that he really didn't count wrong.

This thing is very strange, most of the sheep on the grassland are piled up, and a group of sheep will not run around together, where did these two sheep come from?

This meadow is a little far away, could it be that a partner has come?

He cried out twice, but the setting sun did not answer him, nor did the stars and moon that appeared, and Gurile scratched his head again, intending to bring the sheep back first.

Mounted on his horse, whips blowing, and shouting songs he had learned from Adha, Gurile walked on his way back to the tribe.

According to the old man of the tribe, he will go north in another month, a little later than in previous years, although this year the tribe has more cattle and sheep, and the grass nearby eats quickly, so it is reasonable to migrate early, but there is a war going on now, and the tribe cannot leave in order to wait for the men who go on the expedition.

Starlight and moonlight shone on the boy, on his carefree and happy face.

The wind blew the grass down, and Gurile rubbed his eyes, and in the distance there were several sheep grazing.

This place is not far from the place where the little friends are grazing the sheep, and he is a little sure that the little friends must be playing the game and not paying attention to the sheep grazing and walking away.

Thinking that his little friend might be looking for him in a hurry, Gu Rile smiled mischievously, and he called the sheep over, ready to go over and tease his little friend, and finally give it to him.

But you have to hurry, you have to go back to the tribe early when it gets dark, there are wolves on the grassland.

Of course, Gu Rile is not afraid of wolves, according to Ah Da, the shepherd on the grassland is more ruthless than the wolf, he heard Ah Da said Da Ming, said that those Ming people who were like sheep in the past, he said to Ah Da at that time, he will become a wolf who specializes in eating sheep in the future, which made Ah Da laugh.

I drove the sheep some way, but my friends didn't see them, but they found a few more scattered sheep.

Gu Rile was a little puzzled, and hurriedly sped up his horse, and walked to the place where he was with his friends in the afternoon, but saw several figures lying on the ground, some sheep corpses, and blood stains all over the ground.

Gu Rile hurriedly turned over and dismounted and ran over, and when he turned over the corpse, he saw that it was a little friend of the same tribe.

The self-proclaimed steppe wolf, Gu Rile's hand was retracted like an electric shock, he looked at the corpse lying on the ground with his eyes wide open, and the whole person screamed in fright and took two steps back.

What's wrong, is there a pack of wolves?

He turned over another corpse, he knew it, and another corpse, and he was still a member of the tribe.

Gu Rile was so frightened that he burst into tears, he looked at the wound on the corpse, and made a gesture, either it was a penetrating wound, piercing the front chest to the back, or the neck was only left with a layer of skin still attached, this kind of wound could not be bitten by a wolf!

Fear made Gurile cry, and looking at the miserable corpses of his companions, the boy finally couldn't help but vomit, and he tried hard to wipe the blood from his hands on the grass, but he couldn't wipe it clean.

The horse walked up to his side and chopped off his hooves twice, as if to comfort his master, and Gurile wept for a long time before he gradually regained his senses.

Feeling the horses beside him, Gurile suddenly remembered something and looked in the direction of the tribe.

Under the calm night sky, a violent fire suddenly ignited in that direction, and the gaze crossed the small river, as if seeing something attacking the tribe.

Unable to control the sheep, Gurile wiped away his tears and turned on his horse, and with a whip he drove towards the tribe, and his fear gradually turned into worry and anger, and he could not help but roar.

Auntie, Mei Duo!

……

"My lord, there's the song ahead."

The scouts who had already completed their reconnaissance quickly returned, and Gu Huai raised his fist to stop the whole army.

More than ten miles of running, there is still room for horsepower, but in the last mile, you must wait until the horsepower recovers before you can rush over in one go.

"Where's Duoyan Sanwei?"

"Your Excellency, fifteen miles have passed since the last return!"

Gu Huai nodded: "Get off the horse and eat!" Half a moment later, get on the horse and raid! ”

The discipline of the elite of the Yan army was reflected at this moment, no matter how much they felt that this battle was inexplicable before, under the military order, everyone dismounted in unison, except for the scouts who turned around and went to guard again, everyone began to eat, and at the same time fed the horses, so that the horses could recover their strength.

Gu Huai took two bites of the cookcake fiercely, looked at the map, and gave a military order to Chen Ping on the side: "Your soldiers were brought out by you personally, and only you and they can be trusted, so I need you to lead the troops to rush for a while, fifty people, don't care if there are people around, insert them directly from the left flank!" The grenade was lit and thrown into a tent, and then the fire was set to the tribe from both sides! ”

"Yes! My lord! Chen Ping turned around and drank the order, and one by one the soldiers began to bite the cake to organize their armaments, and hung the grenade on their waists.

This is also an improved design, there are some rings on the belt, the grenade can just be hung, and there are enough storage positions for three fire folds on the belt, so you don't have to worry about no fire and thunder.

In fact, not only Gu Huai, in this protracted war, after seeing the great changes on the battlefield brought about by the provocative throwing heat weapon of grenade, everyone in Yanwangfu paid attention to the research of new weapons, and even specially found a group of craftsmen to start researching firearms.

Remembering some of the previous arrangements again, between biting the cake, Gu Huai looked up in the direction of Beiping, he didn't know if his arrangement was right, and he didn't know what the result of this attack was, but he knew that there was no turning back.

And for Chen Ping and dozens of soldiers who took the lead, although Gu Huai was a little unbearable, he also knew that he had to do this, before entering the grassland, Gu Huai directly told Chen Ping that in this rush battle, in the first few battles, it was always his people who rushed to the front, after all, only he Gu Huai could trust it.

The use of grenades is subject to training, time is pressing, and Gu Huai has no time to teach the border cavalry how to use grenades, so they can only be allowed to stand in front as a death squad and rush out of a bloody road! Although the southern army knew that the Yan army had such a thing and was on guard, the Mongols had never seen a grenade, and when the grenade exploded in the tribe, the Mongols would definitely be caught off guard, as long as they did not gather resistance forces in a short time, the cavalry that followed closely behind could directly destroy the tribe!

This tactic has many limitations, the tribe must not know the existence of the cavalry, and must not know the thing of the thunder, but if you prepare in advance, or be able to resist the deterrence brought by the thunder, a large tribe of thousands or even tens of thousands of people will bring unimaginable trouble to the cavalry.

The Mongols, young and old, are accustomed to riding and shooting, as long as they get on the horse, they can fight, even if the cavalry can finally knock down the tribe, that kind of loss is unacceptable, the road is still very long, and the battle damage must be controlled within a reasonable range, otherwise before the royal court cavalry, the cavalry will have no combat effectiveness.

Gu Huai didn't dare to look at Chen Ping in front of him again, he took another bite of the cooking cake, knowing that some of those who were preparing would die today.

These are Chen Ping's soldiers, they were all picked out by Chen Ping himself, and they were trained little by little, so that they became today's army with a strict appearance, and they were happy when they heard the battle, and now seeing that they are going to go up to die, how can they not feel distressed?

Chen Ping still has a hand in recruiting and training, and he has a long-term vision, so he has to be this kind of honest person to recruit soldiers, listen to military orders, know honor and disgrace, and dare to charge with self-explosion as long as there is an order.

Look at these soldiers, and then look at the Southern Army, what the hell are those things? Expect them to defend their homeland and country? Following Li Jinglong, he will only run for his life and enjoy the happiness and negotiate the price, but today he is going to change to the Southern Army, and dare to rush to the front of the two thousand cavalry? Dare to rush towards a medium horde of thousands of people?

Don't think that grenades can keep these people alive, nothing can change the nature of war, war is to pile up human lives, unless there is a huge generation gap in weapons and equipment, although grenades can help the cavalry have the confidence and combat power to enter the grassland to fight a rush war, but if the raided tribe reacts, it can also cause great trouble to the cavalry.

For example, the fifty soldiers in front of them, the moment they rush in, they will be besieged by several times the enemy, maybe the grenade can open a way, but whether they can rush out depends on their lives.

With an army of more than 2,000 people, it is impossible to eat without a sound, but the more suppressed the sound, the more you can hear a murderous aura, compared to the Duoyan Sanwei who attacked on the other side, the pressure on the Yan army here is much greater, but I have to admit that the Duoyan Sanwei who charged up are indeed not suitable for attacking fortifications, they are more suitable for piercing the enemy's heart as sharp knives.

Half a quarter of an hour passed quickly, and after eating, Gu Huai took a deep breath, turned over on the horse again, and looked at Chen Ping, who was already fully armed: "Remember, don't fall in love with war!" As long as you open a road, go out of the tribe on both sides, don't die! ”

Chen Ping also turned over and got on the horse, leaving a large shadow on the grassland by the afterglow of the sunset, he patted the black Yanjun armor on his body, and suddenly smiled: "I miss Wei Laosan a little... He must have liked this kind of scene. ”

Gu Huai also smiled: "Come back alive, tell him next time, let him blush." ”

He restrained his smile: "The whole army is on the horse!" ”

The wind suddenly rose, and the sound of armor colliding played into a pleasant repertoire, and the cavalrymen who had not removed their armor for several days mounted one after another, and the entire military formation began to be filled with a solemn atmosphere.

"Array!"

The sound of horses' hooves was crisp, and according to the arrangement that had been explained, Chen Ping's thousand households were at the forefront, followed by a cavalry phalanx in the shape of a sharp cone, with fifty soldiers as the tip of the cone, and more than 2,000 cavalry spread in the rear, like scattered dark clouds, and the scout team was cruising around the periphery.

Such a military formation, the rear can be accelerated, even if it is chaotic, there will not be too many trampling accidents, and how far it can rush, just look at how strong the chisel formation at the front is, but in this regard, Gu Huai has confidence in the Yan army with grenades.

The tribes that did not notice the cavalry that suddenly appeared on the grassland would most likely not reject the horses, but only have a fence, so the cavalry could rush forward directly without impunity, and the fifty soldiers at the front were responsible for opening a road, whether it was blowing up the fence or breaking through the gate, in short, they had to point out a direction to the cavalry in the rear.

It is also a loss that Chen Ping brought a grenade, and it is also a loss that Zhu Di generously sent these elite soldiers, under the wind, Gu Huaiqing's shirt was agitated, his long hair was fluttering, and the long sword in his hand pointed forward: "Attack!" ”

The sound of horses' hooves was like thunder.
