Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Pioneer Has Entered the Pine Forest Pass
Isn't it ridiculous to let the light cavalry go into the forest? The advantage of the light cavalry is to give full play to the flat and open area. Use its speed and powerful impact to deal damage to enemies. And this young prefect didn't even seem to know this, so he took us into the mountains and forests, although there is such a beautiful thing as being called a cultivator, but this is really too ......
How could these soldiers know that the person who pulled them into the mountains and forests was the main culprit for the catastrophe of their relatives? In order to facilitate management, Menghua must not have told the soldiers about this situation, otherwise it would be strange if these soldiers did not turn against the cold light......
These soldiers only knew that Hanguang was the eldest young master from the Han family, and came to take them over. For these ordinary people, the Han family is a high-ranking and unattainable existence. As for the cold light that came out of this place, they naturally had reverence in their hearts.
For Hanguang's orders, including the front, let them rush to this plucking cliff here, and the result was empty. Although he complained, he did not doubt it. The difference in status made them dare not question any of Hanguang's decisions at all.
But this one is too ...... The obvious mistakes are really unbearable for some people. Finally, a general stood up and asked, "Young Master Han, may I ask why we are light cavalry, why did you send us to copy the trail?" Horses aren't very good at trailing, so it might be better if you let the infantry do the trails. ”
Hanguang roared: "The mission of a soldier is to obey. If you want to do it, you can do it quickly!" Although Hanguang's usual appearance is not honest, he is also simple, and today's roar scared many soldiers. Which disciple of a family has no grace, and which disciple of a family would be so mad?
Seeing the cold light frenzy, the general who came out to ask the question immediately cowered and retreated.
"Set off for me, resist the order, and kill without mercy!" said Hanguang sharply. For these veterans, it is necessary to give a carrot and a big stick, so as to ensure that they can be obedient. Besides, Hanguang's arrangement like this originally had his reasons.
Before leaving, Le Yangxiu secretly said a few words to Hanguang: "Surprise attack!"
Attacking the enemy with light cavalry is a good choice, because light cavalry has an unrivaled speed advantage and can shoot quickly and catch others off guard.
But this is a surprise attack, not an attack, since Le Yang Xiu said that he could make a surprise attack, that is a way to surprise attack, if not, Le Yang Xiu would not have said these words.
Hanguang thought about it for a long time before he came up with this clever trick.
The cavalry will definitely suffer a loss when crossing the mountains and forests, and the speed will be much slower, and it will even affect the combat effectiveness.
But because of the day's running, the horse must be very tired, and it can no longer withstand the long trek, and the mountain climbing certainly makes the horse very tired, but for running, the horse can also be regarded as a physical recovery.
The cavalry walked through the mountains and forests, taking the route of "surprise soldiers", because the enemy's spies did not find out the movements of the main force of light cavalry, they would not send troops to support various places at will, nor would they have a large conflict with other troops at will. The main forces will definitely be concentrated on the periphery and will always be in a state of readiness.
And use the "strange soldiers" to cross the mountains and forests and directly enter the core area, as long as Songcheng is not lost. Hit one by surprise, take advantage of the mobility of the light cavalry, and attack suddenly when you see the enemy. So that the enemy army does not even have time to communicate, that is the best effect.
This method is also the only best way that Hanguang can think of, and it is also the most feasible way.
As a result, these cavalry brothers, who usually thought they were superior to ordinary infantry, had to work hard through this densely wooded mountain forest with many insects and snakes.
After a day and a night of trekking and resting, the more than 10,000 people finally reached a hillside on the side of Songcheng.
Plans are always changing, because they need to rest and can't be spotted on the way, so the usual five-hour road actually took a whole day. The time was a little later than the cold light had calculated, but not as much as the night.
Arrived at the mountain, first ordered everyone to make adjustments, and Hanguang led 10,000 troops to the pine forest pass silently.
It has to be said that the quality of this team was so high that during the whole day's journey, except for Hanguang and a few generals who had the necessary command, no one else made any sound, not even the horses.
Songlin Pass is the most important level in Songcheng, and it is also the first level that Menghua and others know about being conquered. This is the gateway to Songcheng and the only danger in Songcheng.
At such an important checkpoint, Hanguang sent people to reconnoitre, and the defenders were less than 2,000, and none of them were on the city wall. Instead, they ate, drank, and merried in the barracks of the former defenders of the city.
In fact, Hanguang also suspected what the motives of these bandits were, it was impossible for ordinary bandits to capture the city. Not to mention such a blatant attack on Songcheng, a place where soldiers with heavy troops and veterans who are absolutely loyal to the country are stationed.
Then again. In fact, Chen Kaiyang, the big boss of the Plucking Cliff, still attaches great importance to Songlin Pass, and sends 2,000 elite "native troops" in the few armies to guard it.
The native army is the army composed of real bandits, bandits, and thieves, and the real army is different, these armies are strong in personal combat, not afraid of death, and easy to bring, and are the favorite of the kings of each mountain.
If it is well guarded, and the scattered defenders arranged outside the pass can indeed resist the attack of Hanguang and others, and even delay Hanguang for a lot of time, so that the big boss and others can conquer and loot all places in the pass, and also prepare for the battle of the big boss.
But bandits are bandits after all, and bandits are bandits after all, and they can never change their problem of eating, drinking, and having fun. Usually when I was plucking the hair cliff, there were a few masters in charge, and I didn't dare to be so presumptuous. Now that he has returned to the township where he once mixed, he must "show off his might" and show off......
As a result, no one remembered the defense of the city, but just called some people who usually had the least status to go and see the city gates. In their opinion, in fact, the army is also vulnerable, isn't this a charge from them to knock down this city effortlessly?
With a slight wave of his hand, 10,000 light cavalry immediately rushed out, the woods were less than five hundred meters away from the city gate, and before the people guarding the gate could react, the vanguard had already rushed into the inside of the checkpoint, and everyone wanted to kill more enemies, not only for the sake of becoming an official and a knight, but also for the dream of a lifetime - called a cultivator. The rest of the people naturally flocked in.
Before the most elite hole card in Hanguang's hand, a hundred people from the Zhenlian caravan, had not been used, the army had already quickly conquered the Songlin Pass.
The vanguard that received Hanguang's order did not stay too long at Songlin Pass, and when they rushed to the back gate, they rushed out again to take down a city......
