Chapter 753: Nothing is as good as a person

At this time, Ji Zhu was persuading the two princesses to leave Yongzhou, which was also for their safety.

In exchange, Lu Siqiao and Ye Lengchan were unmoved.

One of them is a county magistrate, and the other is a county lieutenant, and they are all leaders and local parents in Yongzhou.

If they were to leave at this time, it would have to cause turmoil in the whole city, and no one knows what would happen next.

The two princesses refused to leave, and also expressed their belief in Long Jun and Ji Zhu, which made him feel difficult.

In war, it is inevitable that something unexpected will happen. The two princesses refused to leave, which made him a little constrained. I am worried that if the enemy comes to Yongzhou, if I can't find the opportunity to attack, won't the two ladies be in danger.

And it was at this time that the news of the reconnaissance battalion came, and when he learned that the 30,000 Xijing troops were actually approaching Yongzhou by running, he could hardly believe his ears.

The Xijing Army, which is mostly infantry, if it fights steadily and steadily, step by step, even if Jizhu leads the army to break through, I am afraid that it will be difficult to inflict any heavy damage on the other side. But if the other party runs forward completely regardless of physical strength, it is equivalent to giving him a chance to destroy the enemy.

"Are you sure? Most of them are infantry, and they are all running?" With suspicion, Jiju once again confirmed the accuracy of the message.

"Vice Minister Ji, we can be sure. Yin Kun, who led the team, used the excuse that the army could attack Yongzhou and the army could rob for three days in a row, and the infantry he led was all trotting all the way, and in this way, he could reach the city of Yongzhou early tomorrow morning."

"Okay, you've worked hard." Ji Zhu, who had cut off the connection, became very excited, so he turned back to Wang Can behind him and said, "Notify the army to assemble, all assemble."

Ji Zhu guards Yongzhou, this is a task arranged by Su Shi in advance. In addition to the Black Cavalry Reinforced Battalion, he was also guarded by Wang Manlou of the Second Regiment of the People's Army, plus a full 10,000 peasant soldiers.

With 12,000 men to fight against 30,000 enemies, although the strength is inferior, it is not too much worse.

And if the other party ignores the physical exertion, it will be tantamount to abandoning his martial arts, and Ji Zhu's confidence in fighting blocking battles and sneak attack battles will be stronger.

Twelve thousand people, under the leadership of Ji Zhu, came to both sides of the official road outside the south of Yongzhou City, which was surrounded by continuous mountain ranges, and was used as a place for ambushes.

"Inform the army, eat and drink well, sleep well, and all have their spirits up, and prepare for an all-out battle tomorrow morning." After Ji Zhu gave the order, the army of 12,000 entered a dormant state.

Yin Kun didn't know anything about all this, he also thought that the main forces of the Dragon Army were besieged in Dingzhou City, and there would be no enemies in front of him. didn't know that this was one of Su Shi's plans.

Including the previous Su Shi moved the army into Dingzhou City in a bright way, in order to make it for Yin Yuhu to see.

Su Shi has long known that there are Yin Yuhu's spies in the inner city of Dingzhou, after all, not all Goryeo people will forget their ancestors, and there are still some people with a strong sense of nationality. No matter how much you give him such a person, he will not really have the same heart with you.

But it doesn't matter, Su Shi is using these people.

When he moved his army into Dingzhou City, he deliberately opened the city gates and allowed some people to leave. And when the news came out, the gates were closed and the military was put under control.

Then the army secretly went out of the city, in fact, at this time in Dingzhou City, there were only 1,500 guards led by Su Shi and some newly recruited peasant soldiers.

Some of the 10,000 newly recruited peasant soldiers were responsible for transporting grain and grass between cities, and some were responsible for replacing the old peasant soldiers to stabilize local security. It can be said that it is used to the fullest. With these peasant soldiers guarding the city tower, it was easy to create an illusion for Yin Yuhu that Su Shi's main army was in the city and was not going anywhere.

Yin Kun was fooled, and when night came, he just asked the army to stop and rest for half an hour, and ate something at will. In his words, there are good things in Yongzhou City, and when you go there, everyone is having a good time.

The 30,000 troops also believed the general's statement, believing that Yongzhou City was an unfortified city, as long as they entered it

, you can eat and drink spicy. This hope makes them all tireless and full of strength.

In one night, 30,000 troops were on the way, and when it was almost dawn, in addition to the physical strength of the 5,000 cavalry, the 25,000 infantry who followed were tired, sleepy, and hungry, and their physical strength was at least 60% or more.

But even so, the army had no intention of stopping and resting. Without it, Yongzhou City is ten miles away, and when you enter the city, what do you want?

I don't know anything, but some of the arrows are real.

Just when the 30,000 Xijing troops came to five miles outside the city of Yongzhou, and the tall city could already be seen from a distance, in the dense forests on both sides of the road, there was a sudden sound of dense arrows breaking through the air.

I never thought that I would encounter any resistance here, let alone think about it, I would arrange for someone to go into the forest to explore.

Whether careless or arrogant, in short, when the bow and arrow fell into the official road, the 30,000 Xijing troops were stunned.

Under the constant rush of a day and a night, the ranks of the 30,000-strong army have long become very lazy, and even many soldiers are still in a state of confusion because they have not slept all night.

Suddenly, so many bows and arrows broke through the air, and many people fell to the ground before they understood what was happening.

The bloody gas began to fill the air, making people feel sick and sick, and at the same time, it also made more people sober.

Yin Kun had already returned to the carriage from his war horse, and was drowsy, when he was suddenly woken up by a chaotic shout from outside.

However, before he could think about whether this was in a dream or in reality, the sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground sounded one after another. The reinforced battalion of the Black Cavalry and the cavalry of the Second Regiment of the People's Army, a total of 2,000 cavalry, were killed from the direction of Yongzhou to the chaotic Xijing Army.

Two thousand cavalry, in terms of number, is far less than the five thousand cavalry of the Xijing Army. But when it comes to combat power, the result will be completely reversed.

I saw two thousand dragon cavalry riding on the horses, and before they could get close to the enemy's five thousand cavalry, a dense number of arrows fell. Eight arrows in a row, one arrow after another, continued to pour towards the enemy cavalry that could be seen everywhere.

The advantage of eight consecutive shots is that you can shoot eight shots in a row without arm strength or changing arrows.

And the hook-type firing method makes the arrow shoot more smoothly, and the accuracy is greatly improved.

After so many bows and arrows kept pouring forward, the result was that one after another cavalry of the Xijing Army fell from their horses.

Although these cavalrymen also wore battle armor, Goryeo was originally poor and did not have developed iron control technology, so most of these cavalrymen wore cloth armor. Pointing at these cloth armors, against an ordinary wooden arrow and bone arrow, it may be able to resist a thing or two.

The iron arrows fired by the Eighth Company are all very sharp, and their arrows are even more steel, which even ordinary battle armor cannot defend against, let alone cloth armor.

The cavalry of the Xijing Army continued to fall off their horses and die, and this scene frightened the other cavalry.

Not all soldiers have a heart that is not afraid of death after they go to the battlefield. On the contrary, most people just use this to eat with their mouths, and if they beat it, they will beat it, and if they can't beat it, they will naturally have to escape.

When they saw that the arrows of the dragon army on the opposite side were so sharp, some timid people retreated.

In line with the idea that friends of the dead will not die and the poor will not die.

In line with the idea that the world is big and my life is the greatest, as soon as some cavalry run, they will lead other cavalry to flee with them. In the blink of an eye, there were 5,000 Xijing cavalry, and in addition to those who were shot and fled, the number of cavalry left was less than 2,000.

The biggest advantage, the superiority in troops, is also gone. By the time Jiju arrived in front of them with two thousand cavalry, he was almost devastated, and no one could stop him.

With one-on-one, even the most elite Tang Shence army in the world before would not be the opponent of the black cavalry, let alone the cavalry of the Xijing Army wearing cloth armor.

Both sides also shot out, and the angle of the black horse was even more tricky.

The same black horsemen who shoot, eat better, and are stronger are more powerful.

They all hold spears, and the black riders are made of iron

The tip of the gun is made of steel, and everything is broken.

is also still out of the gun, even if the body of the Xijing Army's gun accidentally pierced the body of the black horseman, with the advantage of the stab-proof suit, it was impossible to penetrate, at most it left a red gun mark on the body.

Nothing is inferior to people, nothing can be compared, even in morale, spirit, spirit and physical strength. The 2,000 cavalry of the Xijing Army were quickly dispersed and defeated.

Cavalry is no opponent, and neither is infantry.

Although the 10,000 Dragon Army soldiers who attacked this time were all peasant soldiers. But they have faith and know that everything is for themselves.

Whether it is to kill more enemies, to become a peasant soldier, an auxiliary soldier, until you become a regular soldier. Or because they know it's a battle to protect their families. If you don't defeat the enemy, the good old days are likely to be in vain.

Under all these ideas, all the peasant soldiers who went to the battlefield were all desperate, fearless of death, and heroic.

If it is in normal times, I am afraid that I will not be able to win the battle with only brute force, after all, there are not as many people as the other party. But when faced with a group of Xijing infantry who had not rested for a day and a night, the result was different.

The 25,000 Xijing infantry were first beaten by bows and arrows and suffered heavy losses.

Then he was rushed to the front by the tiger like a tiger in the mountains, and the infantry of the Xijing Army, which had long been gone, although there was still a numerical advantage, but the fighting spirit had already been lost.

They didn't even think about fighting a tough battle here, they just came to bully the unarmed people.

When faced with the high-spirited peasant soldiers with Longquan steel swords, they could not even do a decent and effective defense, so they were killed and scattered, and then some people dropped their weapons and turned and fled.
