Chapter 235: Just in time
When the eldest sister first started, she didn't care about anything else, she was just curious. When the general talked about the content of each class taught by Gongzi, even Rong Rong was amazed, and the eldest sister was even more fascinated by it, especially many new and strange military ideas, which made the eldest sister, a person who knew nothing about military affairs, listen to it eye-opening, which is also different from these professional soldiers. Although these professional soldiers also listened to Gongzi's narration, the military style and concepts formed from their bones were not something that could be explained and understood in a few lectures.
The eldest sister is different from Rong Rong, these two not only have frequent contact with Xiao Jiu, but also have a blood relationship, they have a deep understanding of Xiao Jiu's many strange theories, and they are also very familiar with Xiao Jiu's ideas and personality, so they can quickly understand and accept Xiao Jiu's military theories and opinions said by the general, although they are not very clear about the various formations that the general said, but they also basically know their general use. Through the general, it was also clear to the general the methods of command of this new army and the purpose of various equipment. In these days of marching, it can be said that the eldest sister and Rong Rong have a very big harvest, plus the two of them have a high cultural foundation, and the two are very studious, the general talks during the day, repeating the content of what the son said, and at night the two of them compare the records of the day, re-study and study what Xiao Jiu said, and the two do not have the kind of persistence and habits engraved into the bones of professional soldiers, so many of the content of Xiao Jiu is very deep and thorough compared to these generals and soldiers, and the two of them learn the military knowledge of the army in this kind of army march, and quickly supplement the basic common sense and knowledge of the soldiers, and unconsciously they have approached the threshold to go。 On this day, when it was only more than half a day's journey from the pass, the soldiers in front came to see the eldest sister with a person, and when the eldest sister saw it, it was actually an intelligence officer sent by herself, and she came to humane: "I have seen the eldest princess, and the team leader heard that the eldest princess came to the front line." I was specially sent to meet the Celestial Princess. Because the enemy and the enemy began to mix in the front, I was afraid of accidents, so I was sent to dictate information. It has been ascertained that the other side has sent a total of 600,000 troops this time, and has sent 50,000 people to bypass the forest and come behind the Broken Sky Pass, losing nearly 10,000 men when crossing the forest. Due to the urgency of time, we divided into two routes, one route for me to send the information to the princess, and the other route for the captain to send it directly to the general guarding the pass, it is estimated that the captain will have a difficult time completing this task all the way, I heard that the opponent has surrounded the entire pass, and I don't know what the situation there is at this time. Please, princess, decide. ”
After hearing this, the eldest sister thought for a while and said to Rong Rong: "You send out the personnel you brought, sneak near the pass, kill the masters who went to climb, and ensure that they will not be allowed to board the pass." Rong Rong nodded and left. The eldest sister said to the leading general: "We quickly approached the opponent who came by, and now is no longer the time to control the physical strength of the horse and camel, so we will rush to the front and back with all our strength, and then we will talk about the situation." Ordered to hurry. "See after the general left. He also asked the intelligence officer if his opponent had reached the threshold.
The intelligence officer said: "The 200,000 people of the front army have already arrived, and the difference between the army and the army is a day's journey, and it is estimated that it will arrive at noon tomorrow." Seeing the puzzled look of the eldest sister, she explained: "When we first set off, the army and the front army were connected. A day later, because the follow-up supply of food, grass and siege equipment did not keep up, the army waited for a day, so it pulled away. ”
As he spoke, he saw the general waiting in front. The eldest sister came to her, and the general said: "Eldest princess, under the mountain beam in front is the enemy's station, it seems that she has just arrived for a short time, and she is resting and cooking." As he spoke, he led the eldest sister quietly to the mountain beam.
The eldest sister looked down the mountain beam, and the opponent was unloading the pot and stove grain, and some soldiers were setting up the military tent in the camp, obviously just arrived. The eldest sister turned her head and looked at her soldiers again, and saw that everyone had begun to eat the dry food they had brought and straightened out their weapons. He said to the general: "Let our soldiers eat well first, and rest for a while to recover their strength." After speaking, he looked at the pass in the distance, obviously this was the enemy's choice of a station a little farther away from the pass in order to prevent the people on the pass from discovering it. At this time, the eldest sister asked the general, "Where do we need to reach our bow and arrow to reach our opponent." The general looked at the terrain and distance and said, "You can shoot at the opponent in the middle of the hill, and it is best if you reach the bottom of the hill." ”
The eldest sister just ordered to take a break and let the general leave, and the eldest sister was alone and carefully observed the terrain in front of her. Gradually, the eldest sister found that the hill where she was located was a slightly prominent place, and there were one-person-high bushes under the mountain beam and on both sides of the mountain beam. At this time, Rong Rong came back, came to the eldest sister and said: "The manpower has been sent out, because it has to go around in a big circle, according to the appearance of the opponent, depending on the situation, it can be rushed to the front of them." ”
The eldest sister nodded and told Rong Rong about her thoughts, and after a detailed discussion of the terrain, they thought it was feasible and waited for the general to arrive, and the two told the general their ideas, and the general looked at the two of them puzzled after listening. At this time, the general said: "Two princesses, we can defeat them at once, why do we have to prepare so hard, don't you just rush down." After speaking, he looked at the two princesses with great disbelief.
As soon as the eldest sister heard the general's words, she said to the general: "Our main task is to keep the pass, and we must rely on manpower to guard the pass, and we must reduce the casualties of the soldiers as much as possible, so that we can have the ability to hold the pass." And you should clean up the opponent in front of you as much as possible so as not to leave trouble. If the general has no more opinions, he will deploy his forces in the manner I have said before attacking. Be accurate and in place. ”
The general left to set up. The eldest sister and Rong Rong watched quietly on the mountain beam, and when they saw the soldiers appear on both sides of the mountain beam, they followed the terrain of the mountain beam directly to the foot of the mountain beam, and lightly cleared out a part of the bushes, leaving the front one unmoved as a cover, and then began to assemble behind the remaining bushes, and then the ones behind simply squatted on the ground to avoid exposing the target. At this time, the general came behind the eldest sister on the mountain beam with several carts and starters equipped with large drums.
After everything was ready, the eldest sister saw that the other party's station was already full of smoke, and waited for a while, seeing that the other party's soldiers were busy going to eat, and the whole military camp was noisy, at this time the eldest sister waved her hand to signal that it could start, the general hesitated, and then said to the starting soldiers: "Collectively destroy the arrow array, five rounds of rapid fire, start." ”
I saw the commander walk to the top of the mountain beam and wave the command flag in his hand. The soldiers who had been squatting also stood up, and with the wave of the flag, a dark cloud flew towards the opponent's station, and when the outline fell, another dark cloud floated up from the foot of the mountain and went straight to the opponent's station. After five times in a row, the general said, "Beat the drum and advance." With the general's voice, the big drum behind him was beaten earth-shattering, and then it became a very clear and rhythmic sound of the drum, and the army at the foot of the mountain, with the drum beat of the big drum, walked neatly and firmly towards the other party's military camp.
This is the first time that the eldest sister and Rong Rong have seen the army archery attack, and they saw the dark clouds in the sky rushing towards the other party's military camp.
The arrow arrays of the army have all been carefully divided by Xiao Jiu. According to the number and distribution of the opponent, as well as the number of their own troops, under different circumstances, after each shot, a certain angle is uniformly adjusted, so that the second arrow array avoids the range of the first time, resulting in another coverage and can be connected with the first one. Although this is the first time that the soldiers have used it in actual combat, the long-term training has kept in mind the soldiers' use of various battle formations. So the effect achieved this time completely stunned the eldest sister and Rong Rong who were watching on the mountain beam, and even the general who led the troops was a little unbelievable. I saw that the smoke of the entire barracks was gone, and the soldiers who were running were only standing guard at the edges, and even the chariots had completely changed their faces and became a pile of waste. When you see it, you can't find anything intact in your eyes. The eldest sister said to herself: "Is this Xiao Jiu's masterpiece?" ”
When the general heard the eldest sister's words, he nodded seriously and said: "That's right, this is the battle formation that Gongzi taught us, and it is with such a battle formation that we can be very confident, and we are also very confident to go to the battlefield to win." ”
As the army advanced, the entire opposing military camp was completely left behind the army, and the remaining opposing soldiers were gone. The general said to the eldest sister, "Please mount the princess, and we will go after the army, which is approaching the pass." As he spoke, he ordered the soldiers to let the army directly reach the Broken Heaven Pass.
When the eldest sister and the general and Rong Rong caught up with the army and were rushing forward, the subordinates sent by Rong Rong rushed back to report, and said to the eldest sister and Rong Rong anxiously: "The general guarding the pass has led the troops out to battle, and there is a fierce battle with the enemy's front army, please give the princess an order to send troops to support as soon as possible." After hearing this, the eldest sister just said to the general who led the troops: "The herald orders to speed up and enter the customs directly." You follow me first, and after entering the level, you will see the situation on the battlefield and then make another decision. After speaking, he urged the horses and camels to rush to the pass at full speed.
The guards at the pass were also anxious at this time, and they didn't know what the situation was like when their respected general was fighting in front, and they had nothing to do standing here. In desperation, there was a rumbling drum in the distance, and then I saw the army moving rapidly in the distance. The soldier looked at the army that was moving towards his pass in surprise, and when he didn't know what was going on, someone shouted under the pass, this is this soldier and his companions, according to the rules of the pass in wartime, using a rope tied to their waists, and lowered themselves from the high wall of the pass to check.
When the soldier fell to the ground, he saw a few horses and camels running in the distance, and when the running horses and camels came to him, the soldiers found that the horses and camels could ride people so steadily, and when the people on the horses and camels jumped off the horses and camels and came to them, the soldiers found that they were two little girls. When the soldier called out to the princess, the eldest sister asked, "Do you know me?" The soldier said, "I followed the second prince to the palace academy and met the eldest princess." Princess, please. After that, pull the rope and let the companion above pull him up. (To be continued......)
