Chapter 531: The Prey Enters the Circle
Like Di Qing, Wang Xin didn't see Su Shi's reinforcements, but he thought so.
Only this statement can raise the morale of the army.
Only in this way can we give full play to our combat power.
For a time, the Song army that was surrounded on the battlefield knew about the arrival of reinforcements, and in the face of the attack of the Liao and Western Xia armies, they stubbornly repelled it again and again, and their morale was high.
This change is infuriating, and there is no hidden sound.
Originally, he wanted to use the Liao and Mongolian people to inflict heavy losses on the Western Army, preparing for the Western Xia to enter the Great Song Dynasty in the future.
But now, Su Shi suddenly appeared, disrupting this plan.
Now, Meng rode to the north to deal with Su Shi.
The Liao soldiers came to the side of Xincheng to deal with Wang Xin's department.
In the end, you still have to rely on yourself to deal with the Western Army.
"I hope Jebu will solve Su Shi sooner and come back to help me." Looking at the north, he sighed and said.
But in fact, they don't even know how many soldiers and horses Su Shi has brought now, so how can they solve it.
Xiao Xiaoyou had a rough guess about the troops brought by Su Shi.
Previously, he had received a lot of urgent letters from China, where Su Shi's troops were detailed in detail.
"I heard that there were more than 100,000 people, but I just don't know if they all brought them this time. If you bring them all, then you have to be careful." Thinking like this in his heart, Xiao Xiaoyou ordered someone to inform his generals that when attacking Wang Xin's department, he didn't need to be too fierce, and he mainly focused on preserving his strength.
Unless it is certain that the Mengqi will win and Su Shi will flee, otherwise, they must be ready to withdraw from the battlefield at any time.
This is where the disadvantages of the Three Clans Alliance lie, and it will never be possible to have one mind.
When the catastrophe comes, they will just fly separately.
As long as you grasp this handle and use it a little, it may not be possible to hit them one by one.
Chenghou Mountain.
Before dawn, Tuntel arrived first with five thousand horsemen.
Looking up, you can see a few meters halfway up the mountain, there are many figures standing, one of them is sitting in a wheelchair, holding a goose feather fan seems to be looming.
"Could that person be Su Shi?" The distance was too far for Tontel to see clearly.
Chenghou Mountain, its north peak is 1279 meters above sea level, which is the highest place.
The terrain of other places is high and low, and the location where Su Shi is located is halfway up the mountain, about 400 meters from the ground. Just because of the condescending and foggy in the early morning, it is not very real.
"Young master, the sword and arrow have no eyes, otherwise you should retreat a little." Lou Yang looked at Su Shi with some concern and said with concern.
"It's okay. At a height of 400 meters, it is not a straight line distance, even if there are archers in the Mongolian cavalry, it is impossible to shoot to me. Besides, isn't there a vain walk?" Su Shi smiled and waved his hand to refuse.
Su Shi was sitting here, not to observe the tactics of battle, but to stimulate the Mongolian army under the mountain.
If the 110,000 horses in Su Shi's hands were really fighting against the 90,000 Mongolian cavalry in the open area, then the defeat would probably be himself.
On the contrary, if the Mengqi gave up their advantages of fast speed and good horsemanship, and instead attacked themselves halfway up the mountain, it would be tantamount to tying themselves up, and it would be much easier to deal with.
Su Shi sat in a place where the people below could see, in order to give the other party a kind of hope.
I'm right here, and I have the ability to kill them.
In this way, those who claim to be warriors in Mengqi will not let go of such an opportunity, and they will definitely rush halfway up the mountain, wanting to kill themselves and establish meritorious deeds.
In the final analysis, Su Shi appeared just to be a humanoid target and attract Mengqi's attention.
"It's okay, I'm here, no one can hurt the young master." Bai Xing also spoke, saying very confidently.
How to say that he is also a peerless master, everyone is so far away, there are really bows and arrows shooting, and there is no strength for a long time, just a soft arrow can be blocked.
"Okay." Lou Yang sighed, he knew
The young master is such a character.
Dare to take risks, and dare to take risks.
If the son of a daughter can't sit down, and the gentleman doesn't stand under the dangerous wall, it's better not to say it.
It's useless to say it.
Downhill, Tuntel couldn't see clearly, but that didn't prevent him from organizing a manpower attack immediately.
He couldn't tell if the person was really Su Shi, but all he could see was that halfway up the mountain, there were figures walking around, as if they were preparing for something, or maybe it was because of their sudden appearance that caught them off guard.
The so-called soldier is fast.
Tuntel is definitely not going to give the people of the mountains more time to prepare. With a decision in his heart, he ordered the first team of 1,000 people to leap into the mountain.
At the foot of Chenghou Mountain, an official road leads to the top of the mountain.
On the official road, the terrain is not turbulent in the early stage, and there is no danger, even if you can run more than 100 meters on horseback, and then the terrain becomes vertical, at that time, if you want to ride a horse on the mountain, it will be very laborious, you need to get off the horse and lead the horse.
The cavalry was ordered to charge, just to save more than 100 meters of foot strength.
With an order, a thousand horses jumped on their horses and whipped up, and went straight to the halfway point of the mountain. At the same time, Tontel ordered the scouts to search for other roads up the mountain.
Tongtel still has one more heart than the Western Xia people, like the original Western Xia general Liang De, who only cared about rushing to the mountains and ignoring others. But even if he had some ideas, all of this had already been expected by Su Shi.
The only path on the mountain that could be accessed was also guarded by the army, and the idea of sneaking up the mountain had long been cut off.
A thousand Meng came on a prancing horse, a distance of more than 100 meters, but it was just a blink of an eye. Then the terrain did not allow it, and the Mon cavalry had to get off the warhorse. At this time, the Su family soldiers, who had long been ambushed on both sides of the official road, began to release arrows.
Whoosh...
The arrows suddenly appeared, and the Meng cavalry, who had just dismounted, was shot out of formation.
In the chaos, people shouted and neighed, and it was extremely chaotic. After losing more than 200 corpses, Qianmeng finally had to turn around and retreat.
"There are archers in the forest, and this Su Shi is well prepared. He ordered all the shields in the army to be taken out and equipped on the second batch of Chongshan." Tontel frowned and issued a new military order.
The less than eight hundred Mengqi had just retreated, followed by another thousand Mengqi with shields and rushed up along the official road.
The non-stop attack, Tongtel wants to see if this Chenghou Mountain is impregnable, and whether it is really impossible to attack the mountain.
A thousand shield cavalry came up the mountain, but they still stopped more than a hundred meters, and then a burst of arrows came in, but they did not suffer much loss with shields.
It wasn't until all the shields were filled with arrows that the sound of gold sounded, and the remaining nine hundred horsemen quickly retreated.
"The third wave continues, but we have to see how many arrows in Su Shi's hands can be wasted."
When he said this, Tontel was full of confidence.
He didn't point to lead the army to the halfway point of the mountain, but if he could attract enough bows and arrows before the main army arrived, it would be considered a great achievement.
At that time, the main force is charging, and the resistance will be much less.
"Yo, there's this hobby." Su Shi, who was halfway up the mountain, put down the telescope in his hand and laughed.
Do you like bows and arrows so much?
Well, the exchange in the system is, but we have to see who can't stand it first.
Where did Tongter know about Su Shi's metamorphosis, and at this time he was still complacent about his strategic policy.
didn't know that Su Shi just regarded him as a temporary custodian.
It is still a special storage of arrows. As long as these people are defeated in turn, these arrows will still be left behind and used by Su Shi again.
The third and fourth groups of Mongolian cavalry and shield soldiers launched a charge.
Every time, it is considered a "full load".
But every time, dozens or hundreds of Mongolian corpses will be thrown down.
charged four times in a row, but it was even a Su family
The army was not injured, and all they gained was a lot of arrows.
As soon as the fifth charge was launched, Alatan arrived with 35,000 Mongolian cavalry vanguards, and what he saw was a Mongolian shield team of 1,000 people, which was blocked from rushing to the mountain and fell into the arrows.
"What's going on?" Alatan asked aloud as he rode on his warhorse.
"General, this is the case—" After a burst of trumpets from Tontel, Alatan knew what was happening.
He praised Tuntel's methods, but then said, "It's not enough, a thousand-man charge, how many arrows can be attracted, the general will come with the main force at once, we must do something before that. In this way, a thousand people will be changed to two thousand, and we will try it first."
Alatan came, and the horsemen who attacked the mountain became two thousand shield horsemen at once.
But even so, there were still countless arrows shooting at them, blocking the continued progress of these horsemen.
But if any of the horsemen wanted to advance a little and rush halfway up the mountain, they would become the target of many archers.
After two consecutive attacks, although he brought back a lot of arrows, he also lost more than 300 horses.
Looking at this meeting, the losses added up to nearly a thousand, and Alatan looked displeased. "Order some people to continue to attack halfway up the mountain, and then order people to enter the mountains and forests to find the archers of the Song people to be killed."
Alatan can't wait, General Jebu will arrive in a while, if at that time, he still behaves like this, I'm afraid that the other party will be dissatisfied.
"General, if you rush into the mountain, I'm afraid it will be dangerous." Tontel reminded.
"It's okay, send more people into the mountain, and I won't be able to wait." How Alatan doesn't know, doesn't take the official road, but walks in the mountains and forests, which is more dangerous. But now he really can't delay here, otherwise, it will attract the displeasure of General Jebu, and this vanguard general is likely to eat melons.
Alatan had a firm attitude, Tuntel was only a 3,000-strong commander, or a 3,000-strong commander who had made meritorious contributions, what could he say, he had to agree, and then ordered Meng to abandon his horse and enter the forest, and slowly grope his way to the halfway point of the mountain.
"Yo, we've divided our troops. Hehe, notify the third brigade of Hu Yunfeng in the forest and tell them that the prey is in the circle and hunt to their heart's content." Halfway up the mountainside, the fog cleared, the sun hung high, and even without a telescope, you could take a general look at the situation under the mountain, Su Shi smiled.
