Chapter 473: The Jin Army Arrives
"Special! It's a little too big, it looks scary~"
When standing on a ten-meter-high sentry tower, with a gust of wind holding a telescope in his hand, he looked at the golden army in the lens that there was no end in sight and seemed to be covering the whole world.
Immediately, in his heart, he gasped greatly, and at the same time, he instinctively scolded such a sentence in his mouth.
In the time that followed, when he put down the serious binoculars that finally stopped DIY with bamboo tubes, but wrapped in copper tubes, he looked at the New Army soldiers under the watchtower.
Immediately you can clearly see the faces of almost every one of those people.
There was an indescribable solemnity and nervousness, and even many people's bodies were trembling.
No way! These warriors are rookies who have never seen blood.
Even if each of them has gone through a three-month recruitment period and a four-month run-in period, it can be fully explained by excellent training in this year.
But in essence, they are just some rookies, and when facing the number of terrifying golden people, they are still panicked in their hearts......
That's right! Just like Hu Biao's promise that the Jin army will definitely come.
In the first year of Maode, on the first day of October, the Western Route Army, which was the absolute main force of the Jin State and Song Dynasty, finally arrived at the preset battlefield of Zhuxian Town.
To be more specific, in fact, on September 23, that is, the day after the new army of the Great Song Dynasty arrived in Zhuxian Town.
The traces of Jin Bing's small number of horse exploration troops appeared outside Zhuxian Town.
At first, the number of a day or two was not much, but after the 25th of September, the number of such a horse exploration force, which was not counted as a striker, exceeded 3,000 men.
It's just 3,000 people, which is not much.
It was completely enough to suppress the cavalry of the Great Song New Army, which was a little bit less at night, and all of them were pressed back to the camp.
It was also from this day that the Great Song New Army was squeezed into Zhuxian Town, an area centered on the town; The remaining vast area has become a place for the Golden Soldiers to operate freely.
Fortunately, thanks to the previous action of clearing the wilderness, all the people were moved into Kaifeng City.
By the way, everything that could be taken away was taken away, such as food, and even the houses that could not be taken away were burned down, and all the wells were blocked.
Or, some livestock carcasses were thrown in, polluting the water source.
In this way, these golden soldiers did not say that they could get any supplies, but if they wanted to drink water, they had to run a long distance to the canal to fetch water.
But even so, this can only be trapped in the camp.
Looking at the scene of a group of golden people scouting horses, swaggering outside the camp from time to time, it still made a group of rookie soldiers of the new army feel a lot of pressure.
But they soon learned that the pressure was just the beginning.
On September 27, the Jin forward troops arrived at Zhuxian Town.
Although it is said to be a forward force, it is still a force of 50,000 men, composed entirely of cavalry; The strength of this forward force alone is almost comparable to all the strength of the new army of the Great Song Dynasty.
Not to mention these guys, everyone has a good war horse for Song Jun.
That kind of rush over at the same time, even if the smoke and dust rose from a long distance, and the ground was violently shaken, it made many rookie warriors turn pale at that time.
The only thing that can be fortunate is that the forward troops of these Jin people, that is, sent a small force to provoke outside the large camp, and did not directly attack.
On September 30, the huge Chinese army of the Jin people arrived in Zhuxian Town one after another.
Why do you use the adjective 'successively', it is because Jin Bing has too many Chinese troops.
As the old saying goes, there are more than 10,000 people, and there is no boundary, only to see the black and oppressive army of golden soldiers arriving one after another, and the number seems to be endless.
Counting the people who were forcibly driven after the capture of the newly occupied land, and the captured prisoners, the number of such a Chinese army exceeded absolutely more than 300,000 people.
Therefore, it took more than a day, and finally at noon on the first day of October, all of them arrived at the battlefield.
The camps they set up were connected one by one, stretching out for a distance of more than twenty miles, and they looked really scary.
So there is, the scene like the beginning.
Don't say that the rookie recruits are frightened, even a half-rookie like a gust of wind trembles in his heart.
The reason is very simple, one of the netizens is one, even if it is Hu Biao, AT, Xu Feng, and Cangguan, who participated in the task for the first time.
It was the first time for them to encounter such a big scene.
Not to mention a gust of wind, such a last mission to join the team, the biggest battle scene I have seen is only the strength of the two sides, adding up to twenty or thirty thousand people and a half rookie.
Good guy, this scene has multiplied more than ten times at once, who is not vain......
*****
"It's okay, buddy, you must be steady, and you can't show a panicked expression.
You know, you are now the deputy commander of the Fifth Infantry Division, and so many people under your command are staring at you now, if you panic, they will definitely panic even more. ”
After thinking of something in his mind, a gust of wind told himself.
What's that! In this mission, a total of 31 netizens joined after Hu Biao was counted.
Among them, three people who removed Fengrui, War Elephant, and Ah Li were teleported to the Yanshan area, and there were 28 people left here on the Kaifeng battlefield.
But there are two unlucky rookie netizens who hung up on the Cooking Cake Mountain.
So now each of the remaining 26 people has been entrusted with important tasks.
The chief and deputy commanders of the five infantry divisions were immediately assigned ten people, and the chief and deputy commanders of the two independent artillery brigades were used up another four.
The arrangement of two people in a unit is also prepared that once one person dies in battle, the other person will be able to go up.
Wolf Qing and Yu Hanfeng, the two stayed in Kaifeng City.
The former, Wolf Qing, is a secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and needs to continue to manage the workshops of the Ministry of Industry, producing weapons, armor, and ammunition in a steady stream.
God knows how much this big war will last and how amazing it will be in terms of attrition.
The latter, Yu Hanfeng, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, is responsible for the security of Kaifeng City at the same time, there is a more important matter: to find out the traitors of the Great Song Dynasty.
All kinds of signs show that there is a golden man's internal response hidden in Kaifeng City, and the level is not low.
If you don't find it, it's a bomb that doesn't know when it will go off.
The remaining ten people, including Hu Biao, are also in charge of different tasks such as commander-in-chief, staff officer, logistics, and intelligence, and no one can be idle anyway.
In this way, such a rookie with a gust of wind is a very normal thing to become a deputy division commander.
It is precisely because of such a heavy responsibility as the deputy division commander that a gust of wind can't care about his social fear attributes, and after taking a deep breath, he pretended to have a determined expression.
After getting off the watchtower~, he said to the soldiers around him:
"Brothers, don't worry, you know very well how powerful our new weapons are muskets and artillery.
As long as the belligerent formation is maintained, no matter how many of these golden people are, they are just a group of local chickens and dogs in my eyes. ”
After hearing such a sentence, they thought of the power that they had never seen before when the platoon gun was fired.
In particular, if the independent artillery brigade opened fire with all its might, it was an earth-shattering might, and the recruits instinctively held the muskets at the same time, and their hearts were also settled.
But what they didn't know was that in fact, the deputy teacher who said this had no confidence in his heart.
Without him! There were too many cavalry of the Jin people.
Historically, infantry in the field was truly able to fight the fearless cavalry, and it was not until the machine gun was born and equipped in large quantities.
Before the advent of machine guns, the example of a large victory over musket infantry by a cold weapon cavalry actually happened too many times.
Even the famous lobster musketeers of the John's family lost to the cold weapons of the Zulu infantry, and one unit was completely wiped out.
The only thing that can be thankful is that they have a large artillery presence, which can be considered an advantage.
Unexpectedly, just when a gust of wind was trying to build up his mind and gradually giving himself some confidence, a herald from the command came galloping on a war horse.
After dismounting and giving a military salute to a gust of wind, he handed over an order.
After reading it in a hurry, a gust of wind was immediately in his mouth, and he scolded very indignantly: "Special~"
Because in such a brief order, the content is this: according to the deduction of the general staff, the Jin soldiers will launch a tentative attack early tomorrow morning.
In order not to expose his strength too early, let the main force of the Jin soldiers move and attack other areas.
In tomorrow's battle, the 1st and 2nd Separate Artillery Brigades will not participate in the battle unless the worst happens, so be mentally prepared in advance......
