Chapter 77: The Taiping Army launched a general attack
The words say:
The clouds are dark and the sky is low, and the city is pressed by a fierce wind like an arrow. Ren Chi suddenly, all over the mountains, shouting. is charging thousands of troops and is angry, and it is left to the referee of Khan Qing. Spill blood, live up to the head of the youth, and fight!
The rain of arrows is still frenzied, the cold light falls, the sword is like lightning! Let the horse's hooves trample over, and the corpses of the captives rot. The strong men fought hard to break the enemy's camp, and the general shouted angrily that the rivers were broken. At this point, the old tears are unbearable and scattered.
ββThe dervish villager planned to write "Man Jianghong", in order to write about the war of the day, he could not help but hurt himself and was old and incompetent, thinking of the chaos of the thousands of armies, the hiss of the battlefield of thousands of horses, the tragedy, the blood, and the moment between life and death, I thought of the poems of the predecessors: The yellow sand wears gold armor in a hundred battles, and the Loulan oath will not be returned.
- At that time, Hulagus ordered the attack, however, Yan Junping led a hundred soldiers, and the retreat was quite fast, and in a blink of an eye, he retreated into the camp, and the red-haired soldiers rushed to the front, and some of them could not stop their footsteps, and almost crashed into the earthen wall of the Taiping army's camp.
On the wall of the camp, the Taiping army rained down arrows, so Hulagus had no choice but to retreat.
When Hulagus returned to the big tent, he couldn't help but be depressed: What should the enemy do if he wants to launch a general attack? So Hulags began to arrange a defense, which was nothing more than to defend against the Taiping army at Longshou Mountain and the Taiping army on the periphery from attacking the camp.
However, it is really difficult to determine from which directions the Taiping army will attack!
The red-haired soldiers failed to rush through Longshou Mountain for a long time, but fell into the encirclement of the Taiping army, and the army's morale has long been unstable; recently, they have begun to kill horses for food, and the army's morale is even more unstable; now, the whole camp is coaxing that the Taiping army is going to attack in an all-round way, so the whole army is inevitably panicked.
- But it was said that on Longshou Mountain, there had already been a report to Li Shijun: "Marshal, the enemy camp has fully mobilized troops and horses today, and it is rumored that our army will launch a general attack in an all-round way at dawn on December 6, and Hulags ordered the troops to separate up to guard against it!"
Li Shijun listened to it and said in a deep voice: "Last night, General Du Huaibiao broke into the camp and told our army that the Khan Emperor had decided that at dawn on December 5, our army would launch a general attack, could it be that the news leaked out?"
Tian Mengchang, Xu Xing, and Xu Wenhu all said: "Anyway, since there is no new order from my lord Khan's side, we can only act according to the general attack time conveyed by Du Huaibiao.
It's just that last night, Du Huaibiao did not shoot the signal fireworks rocket as agreed, which means that Du Huaibiao did not succeed in breaking into the camp and charging into the formation, so Hu Lagos is very likely to interrogate Du Huaibiao, so he learned the news that our army is going to attack. β
Li Shijun said: "It seems that the news must have leaked, and my brother and they must have told us the new general attack time by telling the enemy the time of the general attack." β
Xu Xing said: "Marshal, we are guarding Longshou Mountain and cannot communicate with our troops on the periphery, how can the enemy know that the time of our army's general attack is scheduled for dawn on 6 December? If we say that this is my lord Emperor Khan telling us through the mouth of the enemy! However, this can only be a hypothesis -- a bold idea, and we have to be careful to verify it!"
Before Li Shijun could answer, Xu Wenhu said: "Senior brother, in my opinion, we will also hurry up and dispatch the army and deploy it according to the general attack. That Hulagus, maybe the dog will jump over the wall in a hurry, and attack our army before the general offensive of our army is launched. β
Tian Mengchang said: "Brother Wenhu is reasonable, it is better for our army to have 100,000 horses, leave 10,000 to guard the old camp, and leave 20,000 to guard the commanding heights of Longjiao and Liangfeng to control the situation." The other armies were put into special combat readiness.
In addition, tomorrow is the 5th of December, and at dawn, when our armies are ready, we can first send an army to test the enemy, and if our army on the periphery does not move, then our army will withdraw to the enemy, and if our army on the periphery also moves, then our army will go out on all roads and echo with the periphery.
Xu Wenhu said: "Test the enemy tomorrow, I am willing to lead the troops to go!"
Not to mention that on Longshou Mountain, Li Shijun of the Left Army and all the military divisions discussed military aircraft;
If the Taiping army wants to launch a general attack, I might as well attack Longshou Mountain first, but if I attack the whole army, the enemy troops on the periphery will do their best to attack my camp, if I don't go all out, the two peaks of Longjiao Peak will be protected to death by these Datong barbarian thieves.
Thinking of this, Hulagus couldn't help but scold Li Shijun in his heart, but as soon as he scolded Li Shijun, Hulagus's heart moved, it was "Ge Lei" All of a sudden, Hulagos remembered - Li Shijun didn't seem to be afraid of my bronze mirror to look at him!
Hulagus thought that his bronze mirror was ineffective against Li Shijun, and when he thought about it, he became afraid.
What should I do? If our army wants to break through the encirclement, we must face Li Shijun on Longshou Mountain, Longshou Mountain is an obstacle that we have to face, and we must take Longshou Mountain!
Although his own army did his best to surround Li Shijun on Longshou Mountain, Li Shijian mobilized a large army to surround his troops, and the Taiping army was still increasing troops to Longshou Mountain!
- That's it, they will attack at dawn on December 6, and I will attack Longshou Mountain in an all-round way at dawn on December 5, and once they succeed, then make a breakthrough, and the whole army will break through the siege, go to recapture Xiao Pass, and return to my own country!
Therefore, Hulagus arranged that the red-haired soldiers were scheduled to launch a general attack on Longshou Mountain at dawn on December 5. After succeeding, a little breakthrough, the whole army broke through, and Wangxiao Pass retreated.
In the early morning of December 5, the whole army entered a state of imminent battle, and Xu Wenhu led the troops to test the enemy's battle, just to see the movement of the Taiping army on the periphery.
The situation of black clouds pressing down on the city is urgent, and time is flowing eastward like water.
In the early hours of December 5th.
Under the arrangement of Li Shijun, the Taiping army on Longshou Mountain divided the 100,000 troops into various routes, all of which were ready to launch a general attack at any time, only to see the movements of our army on the periphery of the mountain.
Xu Wenhu had already led 20,000 troops according to the prior arrangement, and then went down to Longshou Mountain to attack Moli's camp in the northwest, but unexpectedly, in the enemy camp, the horn suddenly sounded!
On Longshou Mountain, Li Shijun said: "The red-haired soldiers are coming to attack my Longshou Mountain again, everyone, according to the normal defense arrangement, each hold his position." β
Li Shijun sent Xu Wenhu 20,000 horses to go to the two peaks of Longjiao to strengthen the defense of Longjiao Peak.
Li Shijun himself, however, led 20,000 troops as a mobile support force.
At that time, at the foot of Longshou Mountain, Hulagus also attacked with all his strength, and personally led the red-haired soldiers to capture Longjiao Peak.
As mentioned earlier, Longshou Mountain, which was originally the head of the legendary green dragon, fell here and turned into it, speaking of which, this Longshou Mountain is not very big, and the two peaks of Longjiao are the commanding heights, Li Shijun led the Taiping Army, strictly guarded, and could not lose Longjiao Peak no matter what!
Under Hulagus, the total number of cavalry has now declined, and the infantry has increased from 30,000 to 40,000, and the reason is that after killing horses for food, some cavalry have no horses and have to be turned into infantry.
At that time, Hulagus led 50,000 horses, including 40,000 infantry, all of whom went into battle to capture Longjiao Peak, and 10,000 cavalry, ready to attack at any time.
Hulagos personally came to attack the west peak of Longjiao Peak, and up and down the west peak, the pressure on the Taiping defenders suddenly increased!
I saw the red-haired infantry rushing up like a tide!
Under Longjiao Peak, it was originally a camp set up by Li Shijun's soldiers guarding the peak, and the Taiping army was on the wall, and arrows were fired one after another, and the arrows were like showers.
Hulagus commanded the infantry to compete for the west peak of Longjiao, but he was holding a bronze mirror, only swaying and shining in the Taiping army.
The west peak of Longjiao Peak was in an emergency, and Li Shijun personally led 20,000 mobile men and horses to support.
At this time, the two sides were fighting, and the red-haired soldiers had just rushed to the deer at the foot of Longjiao Peak, and they all rushed to destroy the deer.
Behind these red-haired soldiers, 10,000 red-haired cavalrymen, all bent their bows and arrows, and shot towards Longjiao Peak to suppress the archers of the Taiping army.
In the past, the red-haired soldiers had also attacked Longshou Mountain with all their might, and the battle situation was no different from this time, so in the previous text, the dervish villager did not describe this.
Only this time, it's different.
The so-called difference, that is, when the red-haired soldiers attacked in the past, the mobile troops were not personally led by Li Shijun to fight, that is also the consensus of the whole army of the left army, the left army of 100,000 horses guarding Longshou Mountain, can not be left without an owner for a day, therefore, to avoid the left army marshal Li Shijun and the enemy marshal Hu Laggs face to face!
Today, Li Shijun personally came to save Longjiao Xifeng, which is also a coincidence: it turns out that the generals of the mobile unit are Xu Wenhu and Tian Mengchang.
It's just that this time, Xu Wenhu and Tian Mengchang have their own task arrangements.
Xu Wenhu's troops did not have time to retreat to the two peaks of Longjiao, so they fought with the red-haired soldiers at the foot of the mountain. This part of the enemy army is the red-haired soldiers of Morley's division in the northwest direction.
And Tian Mengchang, together with Xu Xing, led 10,000 soldiers to defend the camp under the two peaks of Longjiao Peak.
Li Shijun personally led the troops to aid the west peak of Longjiao, when Li Shijun ordered 10,000 horses to bring bows and arrows to participate in the battle on the west peak of Longjiao, and led another 10,000 horses to launch a counter-charge against the red-haired infantry under Longjiao Peak. This counter-charge is also advancing and retreating from time to time - that's why it's all to prevent Li Shijun from being injured by Nahu Lagos with a bronze mirror.
It's not that Li Shijun is afraid of death, but that after the marshal of the left army is stunned by the bronze mirror of Nahulagus, the left army will have no owner-
As the saying goes, a bird doesn't fly without a head, and a person doesn't walk without a head. Since the puppet cannot win the ambition, how can he not be handsome when the three armies are in a big war? Therefore, Li Shijun had to avoid it. The difference this time is that Li Shijun inevitably has to meet with Hulagus.
At that time, on Longjiao Peak, the number of defenders of the Taiping Army had reached 20,000, and 20,000 people had to shoot a salvo of 200,000 arrows - since the Taiping Army defended the mountain, the bamboo and wood on Longshou Mountain were almost cut down.
The slogan of the Taiping Army is: People are in the mountains, and people are lost in the mountains!
ββThis is the arrow and stone attack, the golden drum is shaking, how can the Taiping army on the periphery not move?
The Taiping army surrounded the enemy's army, and in the northwest direction, it was Fu Liming, a counselor of the right army, who led the troops. At that time, Fu Liming heard that outside the barracks, there was a sound of killing on the side of Longshou Mountain, so he said:
"This must be the red-haired soldier Hulagus who heard that our army was going to conduct a full-scale general attack at dawn on the 6th, so he was in a hurry, and now he is going all out to attack our brothers in the left army on Longshou Mountain!"
After saying this, Fu Liming looked at the generals, and they all wanted to participate in the battle, so
Fu Liming said to the generals: "Generals, the red-haired soldiers have now learned that our army is going to launch a general attack at dawn on the 6th, so they are also jumping over the wall in a hurry! We will attack the enemy camp here to echo and support the left army!"
At that time, Land Rover and Land Tyrant all said: "The senator is very right! Please ask the senator to give an order!"
Fu Liming smiled and ordered: "Land Rover, General Lu Ba, each of you will lead 5,000 men and horses from your headquarters, prepare soil bags, and advance with our army, and build a wall of earth on the left and right sides of our Chinese army at any time!"
When Land Rover and Lu Ba heard this, they were inexplicable: "Senator Fu, my good military advisor, why is this?"
Fu Liming said with a smile: "Listening to the sound of the enemy's horn, you can know that our enemy Mo Li is now attacking Longshou Mountain with all his might, and we will definitely be able to break the enemy camp when we fight."
Our army's combat intention is not only to echo the left army, but also to take the opportunity to build a wall of earth and build a road to cut off the connection between Morley and Hulagus, and our army will rely on this road to lead to Longshou Mountain and connect with the left army!"
When the generals heard this, they all exclaimed: "The military advisor has a good plan!"
Fu Liming ordered again: "Gongzi An will obey the order!"
- It turned out that An Gongziming's injuries were healed, so he came to Xiaoguan to see Song Yi and Liu Wuming, and Song Yi immediately ordered him to lead 5,000 soldiers to come to the front line of Longshou Mountain.
At this time, An Gongzi Ming "snapped", came to stand upright, and said loudly: "The last general!"
Fu Liming said: "Please lead the 30,000 horses of the Chinese army to attack head-on!"
Next, Fu Liming ordered the rest of the generals to march behind the deputy vanguard with him, or assist, or carry earthen bags, or guard the old camp.
After the arrangement was completed, Fu Liming ordered another person to be a messenger to quickly inform the Chinese army Yan Junping and Wen Ziming, and suggested that the Chinese army move; finally, with Fu Liming's order, the right army shouted and attacked!
An Gongzi Ming led his troops to attack the camp of the red-haired soldier Mo Li, and as Fu Liming expected, there were not many defenders in the camp.
At that time, An Gongziming's army broke into the enemy camp, and on both sides were Land Rover and Lu Ba each leading the leading horses, and the soil was used as a wall, and a road ten zhang wide was built!
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the right army had already passed through the camp of the red-haired soldier Morley, and continued to extend forward, ahead, only less than a thousand meters away from Longshou Mountain!
However, it was said that at this time, Mo Li was ordered by Hulagus to do his best to attack the west peak of Longjiao, and wanted to attack together with Hulagus to seize the west peak of Longjiao! However, the Taiping army on the opposite side was so hateful that they attacked repeatedly, but they were always blocked by Xu Wenhu.
Mo Li has repeatedly attacked, but Xu Wenhu is a person who is both civil and military, and Mo Li does not have a bronze mirror that can control Xu Wenhu, but he attacks again and again, and is frustrated again and again!
Mo Li was frustrated, but Xu Wenhu couldn't do what Li Shijun ordered, and retreated to Longjiao Peak, so he had to send someone to report to Li Shijun what to do.
Li Shijun got the retribution, and naturally agreed with Xu Wenhu's decision to block Mo Li's people.
And when Morley's offensive was frustrated, an urgent report came: the right army of the Taiping army broke the camp and built a road, cutting off the connection between our department and Marshal Hulagus!
Morley was shocked, but he was also helpless, without Hulags's order, he didn't dare to retreat and save him! Hulags's order was to do his best, and today he would have to lay down Longshou Mountain no matter what!
Helplessly, Morley ordered: "Give me to fight to the death, taking Longshou Mountain is the first priority! No one is allowed to retreat! Violators of the order will be beheaded!"
There are soldiers who retreat, and Morley personally kills them!
So, the soldiers led by Morley rushed forward to kill!
Xu Wenhu's 20,000 horses couldn't resist for a while, and the soldiers in the front row inevitably wavered and retreated!
Xu Wenhu shouted: "There is no way back! Take a step back, and the whole army will be annihilated!"
At the same time, Xu Wenhu rushed forward and personally came to meet Mo Li! At this time, a detective horse hurriedly came to report: "Report to the military division! The right army came to my aid, and the road was repaired all the way to our army!"
Xu Wenhu said: "Where does the right army Yongdao lead?"
Tanma said: "It leads to the south of the West Peak, and you can reach the camp of our army." β
Xu Wenhu said: "Okay!"
Before the words fell, another messenger from Marshal Li Shijun reported: The marshal asked that Xu Junshi's side should drag Mo Li to the death, so that the right army could build a road and cut off the connection between Mo Li and Hulagus!
When Xu Wenhu heard this, he ordered his subordinates: "Soldiers, brothers, the marshal wants us to bite Mo Li and drag him to death, all follow me!"
So Xu Wenhu led the troops to counterattack, and for a while, the two teams of men and horses were mixed up and killed each other in chaos.
However, it was said that on Li Shijun's side, Hulagus was also trying his best to attack, and Li Shijun was on the south side of Longshou Mountain, relying on the west peak of Longjiao, and fought hard with it. The bronze mirror was twelve points powerful, and the casualties of Li Shijun's mobile troops gradually increased, and the good ones, the defenders on the west peak of Longjiao were condescending, and the rain of arrows suppressed the red-haired cavalry, and the red-haired infantry attack was naturally blocked.
At this time, the right army was on the road, advancing forward for the camp step by step, piling up the fortress, Li Shijun had already seen it, transferred the two commanders, assisted Mo Li, and he went all out to deal with Hulagos and attract his troops, so as to reduce the pressure of Fu Liming and An Gongziming's right army.
The fighting here is hard, the horns of the red-haired soldiers are constant, the drums of the Taiping army are like thunder, and the Taiping army on the periphery, Yan Junping, Wen Ziming, Ning Cheng, Yang Du and other Wenchen generals have already gotten the news!
In addition, Yan Junping ordered the generals, and the men and horses of each headquarters had already prepared according to the requirements of the general attack, and had entered a special combat readiness posture, ready to attack at any time. At this time, all the generals of the army are ready to attack!
