Chapter Seventy-Four, the Taiping Army agreed on a general attack
The poem says:
The Taiping Banner is the first mountain of the dragon, and the captives are homesick and homesick.
Huma's neighing stopped, and the thief chief whimpered and soured.
Cloth clothes can solve the problem of deception, and the clown knows how to stop it.
How can you covet a light power?
At that time, when Fu Liming asked the messenger to report back to Li Shijian, using the wheel array, he had his own method of breaking the large-scale group impact of the red-haired cavalry, and all the generals and messengers said: "What is the magic method of Senator Fu?"
Fu Liming said, "Hulagus, the red-haired demon general, although he is quite capable, in the final analysis, his bronze demon mirror is powerful!"
He has a large-scale cavalry assault formation, how can I, Fu Liming, have no countermeasures? This wheel formation was originally researched by me Fu Liming! He has a move, and I have a move!"
At that time, Fu Liming told the messenger about the method of dealing with him, and what broke the impact of the large-scale cavalry group of his red-haired soldiers was that the wheel array had a five-wheel rotation method.
This method is to combine the five wheel arrays into a five-element array, which can be regarded as a large wheel array, and the middle wheel is a large wheel array axis, which operates according to the five-element formation, which can just deal with the large-scale impact formation of cavalry.
Land Rover Lu Ba said: "How can Senator Fu think of such a wonderful method to break the enemy's cavalry?"
Fu Liming sighed leisurely: "At the beginning, the Datong Khanate was unconscious, and I had the intention to do a career, so I relied on my wheel array, out of Xiaoguan, and fought against the red hair, so that his red-haired cavalry would never dare to look at our country."
I don't want my ambition to serve the country and the heart of fame, but there is no way to do it in the Datong Khanate. Later, Yang Qingcai raised troops against the Datong Khanate, I saw that he was also a person who understood, so he defected to him, hoping to help him dominate the world, and then practice my life's will, and then Yang Qingcai was defeated, fortunately, my lord Khan Emperor was magnanimous and accommodated the ministers, I have today!"
So, Fu Liming's army of 50,000 hurried to the foot of Longjiao Peak.
The 30,000 red-haired soldiers in the original Xiaoguan City plus the red-haired soldiers from Lengquan County, a total of 50,000 horses, were stationed behind Longjiao Peak under the leadership of the red-haired general Mo Li, and were supposed to attack Longjiao Peak.
Mo Li was distressed by the vain cavalry attacking the cottage company camp every day, and heard that 50,000 infantry and horses of the Taiping Army were coming, so he immediately raised the whole battalion of cavalry, 50,000 horses, and the momentum was violent.
Fu Liming had already made preparations, and the army set up a car formation, turning five rounds in unison to resist the impact of the red-haired cavalry.
At that time, the two armies fought in the field, the killing field was full of ears, the drums shook the sky, and there were already Longshou Mountain Tanma reported on Longjiao Peak:
The enemy cavalry under the mountain is attacking our army, and looking at the banner, it should be the right army and horses coming to help!
Li Shijun was rewarded, and with a high look, it was indeed true. At that time, Li Shijun said: "My left army is guarding Longshou Mountain, with Hulagus in front and Mo Li to surround me in the back-
At this time, the right army came to our aid, and we should help the right army, as long as the right army stood firm and set up camp, then although our army was surrounded by the enemy, but on the periphery of the enemy's army, there was the right army and the Khan's forbidden army to counter-encircle the enemy.
At that time, the center of our army will bloom, and the front will join forces with the Khan Emperor's forbidden army to attack Hulags, and then join forces with the right army to attack Moli, so to speak, under this dragon horn peak, it will be the main battlefield for our army to annihilate the red-haired soldiers in one fell swoop!"
So Li Shijun returned to the big tent of the Chinese army and arranged a sortie to echo the right army Fu Liming.
The vanguard general Canyin Hammer Ma Rong led 10,000 troops and descended from the south of the west peak of Longjiao Peak to attack the enemy camp;
The deputy vanguard broadsword Changsheng led 10,000 troops and descended from the north of the west peak of Longjiao Peak to attack the enemy camp;
Xu Wenhu, Li Da, and Zhang Li led 10,000 troops from the middle of the two peaks of Longjiao Peak to the south out of Longshou Mountain, and then turned to the west to attack, and at the same time met Ma Rong's troops;
Li Shijun and Xu Xing led 10,000 horses in the opposite direction to Xu Wenhu, but they attacked from the north, and at the same time received the victorious soldiers!
ββOn Longjiao Peak, 40,000 horses and horses were divided into four teams to kill the enemy camp, and the red-haired soldier general Mo Li got to report, and he was also panicked in his heart, so he hurried back to the army.
What Mo Li didn't expect was that the chariot * array used by the 50,000 horses of Fu Liming's right army was like the wheel of a big cart, rolling forward, following behind the red-haired cavalry to kill, although the big wheel array was not fast, but it was a battalion step by step, pressing step by step!
When Mo Li saw this, he couldn't help but be a little angry, and said hatefully: "What kind of ghost is this Datong barbarian doing? He can actually block the impact of my cavalry! We will use the other way, and give back to the other - we also learn to defend the camp and let him attack!"
So Morley ordered to return to the camp to defend.
The red-haired cavalry moved quickly, and after a short time, all of them retreated to the camp, and Mo Li led his troops to block Li Shijun's 40,000 horses and horses.
When Li Shijun saw it, he said to Xu Xing: "Master Xu, how can we think of a way, see how to steal the red-haired camp, quickly go and notify the right army, let them quickly set up camp, be sure to build an earthen wall, in order to block the red-haired cavalry, we will attack the enemy camp here, attract the enemy, and buy time for their right army!"
Xu Xing smiled bitterly: "Marshal, this method is really hard to think of. However, I see that on the enemy camp, the commander-in-chief of our right army is Fu Liming.
It is better for our side to beat the drums of war and intensify the offensive with great fanfare, then, with the wisdom and strategy of the Senator, he will inevitably expect that this is our army coming to his aid and echoing him, and he will take the initiative to think of setting up camp!"
When Li Shijun heard this, he smiled and said, "Okay!"
So Li Shijun gave an order, and the sound of 40,000 horses beating drums and shouting was like a landslide and the ground cracked.
Fu Liming's side, sure enough, he understood it, and when he saw the red-haired cavalry retreating into the camp, he thought that his car * formation, the method of five rounds of simultaneous rotation, could force the red-haired cavalry back.
When he heard the enemy camp, under the Longjiao Peak, the drums and shouts of killing boiled into the sky, and Fu Liming immediately understood. Immediately, he ordered the army to set up a fence on the periphery of the camp, place antlers side by side, and then take a step back to build an earthen wall.
On December 2, the fourth year of Emperor Kaiping of the Taiping Khan, the Taiping Army and the red-haired cavalry formed a situation of encirclement and counter-encirclement under Longjiao Peak:
Hulagus had a total of 120,000 cavalry and 30,000 infantry, a total of 150,000 horses, and surrounded Li Shijun and Longshou Mountain, the left army of the Taiping Army;
At the foot of Longshou Mountain, the 150,000 horses of Hulagus's department surrounded Li Shijun, but they were surrounded by the 150,000 troops of the Taiping Khan Emperor and the 50,000 horses of the right army Fu Liming.
The two sides fought fiercely under the Dragon Horn Peak, and it has been a duel for twenty-one days so far.
In the twenty-first day, the right army of the Taiping Army pacified Xiaoguanzhou, recaptured the key pass Xiaoguancheng, and Fu Liming led 50,000 elites to rush to the Longjiao Peak to assist, which was really hard.
Under the command of the Taiping Khan Emperor Li Shijian, the army finally surrounded the Hulagus red-haired cavalry. Fu Liming came to see the Khan.
Li Shijian said: "Senator Fu, I have already ordered the generals to lead the troops to train the car * formation you mentioned! You are here, just to give you some pointers, the day when our army is skilled in the big formation is the time to completely eliminate Hulagus!"
At that time, in the camp of the Khan Emperor, all the generals and ministers were there, Yan Junping said: "My lord Khan, at present, our army is not short of food and grass, and the trapped enemy, the department of Hulags, does not seem to lack grain and grass at present, but on Longshou Mountain, the left army has 150,000 horses, except for 50,000 people to surround the enemy with the forbidden army of our lord Khan, and there are 100,000 horses on the mountain, which consumes a lot of grain and grass every day." The minister was worried that the left army would not have enough food and grass. β
Guo Renying, the President Ma general of the Taiping Army's six-way exploration, said: "My lord Emperor Khan, Yan Junshi, and his subordinates came to visit the horses, and yesterday in the camp of Nahulags, there was a continuous sound of war horses screaming!
When Wen Ziming heard this, he said: "General Guo's news is true? If it is true that the red-haired soldiers kill horses to survive, then they will not be far from death!"
Li Shijian also said: "Okay! We have finally seen the dawn of victory! General Guo, if you continue to investigate tomorrow, you must find out whether the enemy camp is killing horses for food!"
After we destroy the Hulags, we must form an elite cavalry unit of our Taiping Khanate! This red-haired cavalry has made me feel a lot of anger! This battle is not at all painful, and I am suffocated and aggrieved!"
It turned out that Li Shijian only said a few words when he first saw Nadu Huaibiao and Jingun Ning Cheng to show the majesty of the Khan. After that, I will still be commensurate with the ministers who are you and me, in order to show equality.
- And at that time, when Li Shijian said this, he said to Ning Cheng, Yang Du and Zhu Gan: "General Ning, two pioneers, how is the current training situation of our army's big wheel formation?"
Before Ning Cheng, Yang Du, and Zhu Gan could reply, a messenger hurriedly entered the account and reported: "My lord Khan, great joy!
When the generals saw that the messenger was from the palace, they all secretly guessed that it was difficult to speak.
Li Shijian listened and asked, "What kind of joy?"
It turned out that this messenger, from the Imperial City of Xijing in Tianning Prefecture, was named Wang Zheng, and was sent by the two queen mothers to report the news:
The two sisters, the imperial concubine Murong Chan and the princess Murong Juan, were actually born on the same day, and the brothers Li Shijian and Li Shijun each had a son!
The messenger said: "My lord Khan, the queen mother has already given the little prince and the little prince a name, but the name number, the queen mother said, the child's father will give it, please ask my lord Khan to decide, and the minister will reply to the two queen mothers." β
When Li Shijian heard this, he said: "My son, if you want to choose a name, let him bear my hopes, I am willing to set up a life for the people, and open peace for my khanate, just call him 'Li Taiping', and the matter of taking the name will be decided when he grows up to the age of fifteen."
As for the name of my nephew? At present, his father is on Longjiao Peak, and it is inconvenient to contact him at this time, Wang Zheng, you can wait for a few days, and wait for the day when my army defeats the enemy, and then see Marshal Shijun, the prince of Kaiping. β
At that time, the general in the tent got up and said to Li Shijian: "My lord Emperor Khan, the old minister is willing to rush into the camp, rush up the mountain, and inform Marshal Shijun of this good news!"
When everyone watched, it was Du Huaibiao.
It turned out that Du Huaibiao lost his son when he was old, and his two sons were also outstanding and heroic;
Du Huaibiao thought in his heart: Although this matter is small, if I rush through the enemy camp and get the letter, the Khan Emperor Li Shijian will always look at me differently, and it can be regarded as a merit for me to reduce some sins.
If I can't rush over, I will die here, and I will be a martyr. The two good sons are dead, and now I am just a lonely old man, an old bone, what is the point of not living?
In my life, I have enjoyed enough blessings - I have also been the pillar of the Eastern Court of the Datong Khanate, a very popular minister; I have also been the Emperor of Dadu Khan, facing the south and turning his back to the north, and being worshipped; now I am fortunate to have the Khan Emperor Li Shijian magnanimous and sheltered me, maybe I will die in battle, just to cover up the ugliness, maybe I can still leave a name in history!
This is exactly what it is, the martyrs who died in battle, and the heroes who do not die!
Thinking of this, Du Huaibiao stepped forward and asked Li Shijian for an order to break into the camp and rush into battle and go up the mountain to report the news!
At that time, he said: "General Du, since you fought against the red-haired soldiers, you have made many meritorious deeds, how can you let you take risks for my nephew and a little baby?"
Du Huaibiao said: "My lord Emperor Khan, the old minister's age, even if he dies, the age is enough." I rushed into the camp, and I could also explore the reality of the enemy camp and see with my own eyes whether the red-haired soldiers were killing horses for food!"
Li Shijian said: "Old General Du, the Hurrags Bronze Mirror is very powerful, if you meet the old general, wouldn't it be extremely dangerous?"
Du Huaibiao's heart was hot, and he said: "My lord Khan, the old minister is willing to do my best to be loyal and shed the last drop of blood for my lord Khan! As for the Hurrags bronze mirror, the old minister has also thought about how to dodge!"
When Li Shijian and the generals and strategists heard this, they all said: "General Du, what is the magic method? Why haven't I heard you before?"
Du Bubiao said: "This is just an idea of the old minister, I use a big iron shield to block my whole body, then the mirror of Hulagus should not be able to shine on me!"
Li Shijian listened to it and said with a smile: "Old General Du, this has never been tested on the battlefield before, but I'm afraid it may not work." What's more, if you block your whole body, it's inconvenient to meet the enemy!"
Du Huaibiao said: "My lord Emperor Khan, the old minister is here, he is not in love with war, as long as he takes the road and goes, he should be able to succeed." Besides, if I succeed in this attempt, won't our army have one more way to deal with that Hulagus?"
Speaking of this, Du Huaibiao knelt down and kowtowed: "Please ask my lord Khan Emperor to allow the old ministers and his party!"
Li Shijian hurriedly left his seat to help Du Huaibiao get up, and said: "Since the old general has made up his mind, I will arrange people to help you break into the camp and report the news!"
So, everyone discussed how to help Du Huaibiao break into the camp to report the news.
Fu Liming said: "My lord Emperor Khan, the front of the Khan Emperor's forbidden army is on the side of the Khan's forbidden army, General Du can pass through the side I defend, we use a method of attacking the east and the west, and this side will feint to attract Hulagus, and General Du will rush up the mountain from the side of our right army defense line." β
And when they heard this, they all said yes. It was decided at that timeβthe matter was decided, and the people went back to discuss what had been done before.
Li Shijian said: "Earlier, we talked about the training of the car * formation, how is it?"
Ning Cheng, Yang Du, and Zhu Gan all said: "My lord Emperor Khan, it should be of great use, but I still have to ask Senator Fu to make a decision." β
So the Taiping Khan Emperor and all the generals went to the school field in the camp to see Ning Cheng, Yang Du, and Zhu Gan drill the three car * formations. When I boarded, the war drums sounded, and the car turned around!
Li Shijian and all the generals and strategists all stood on the high platform in the camp and watched carefully. After the exercise, Fu Liming said: "My lord Khan, as the three generals said, can already be of great use!"
So the Taiping Khan Emperor Li Shijian and his ministers returned to the Chinese military tent and agreed on the date of the general attack, which was set for December 5!
Li Shijian said to Du Huaibiao: "Old General Du, if you go up the mountain, you will make it clear to Marshal Shijun that we will launch a general attack at dawn on December 5!"
Du Huaibiao said, "Yes!" and went to the northwest of Longshou Mountain with Fu Liming, in the camp of the right army, and prepared to rush into the camp after dusk that day!
