Chapter 355: Pinghai
Because there were many friendly forces who needed to arrange the location and order, it took most of the day to discover enemy tracks, confirm contact and scale, and organize combat status to enter the target site. When we arrived, there was only a post-war scene full of messy ground and corpses everywhere.
Then we sent a horse team to pursue the traces left by the large group of people in the battlefield. Under the dim sky, we hurriedly found the place where the battle took place.
On the undulating fields, there were already people running around and shouting, and they couldn't see their original appearance. A big road facing east and west is lying across it, barely providing a reference to this battlefield where fighting is in full swing.
From the mirror of the maximum number of the maximum, I could observe that a Northern Army with a green flying bird flag was fighting fiercely with a part of the Shenji Army standing on the opposite camp.
I saw the overwhelming smoke and flames flying out of the Southern Army camp, and splashing like a star fall into the northern soldiers, submerging their arrays in the thick smoke of fire, which was spectacular.
At this moment, I saw at least the fire nest car, flying fire thunder, and seven or eight kinds of firearms appearing.
In terms of tactics, it is not much different from my troops. After using dense long-range projections, the enemy's array was broken up, and the infantry rushed forward to fight in close combat, and strived to expand the results of the battle from the gaps and chaos opened by the firearms.
However, in terms of specific weapons, tactics, and efficiency, it is more than one generation away. With so many types and configurations alone, it is enough for those responsible for logistics to go crazy or go crazy.
Not to mention maintaining independent combat and self-sustaining ability, no wonder the Shenji Army has had powerful projection firepower for a long time, but can only be used to rely on the key points of the city camps, or to be assigned to each army, under the cover of the infantry and military formations, to conduct field defense or attacks.
However, under the attack of these firearms, these northern soldiers also showed a very tenacious and tough side. Their main correspondence method was to train well-trained shields to form arrays, interlaced and combined to resist the explosion or burning objects projected from the opposite side, or to avoid them in a targeted manner along the trajectory.
Even if they are hit and overturned by the head, as long as they are not dead or seriously injured, they will support each other and get up again. Even if the blockage flows down and the flames are burned, the people around them will not panic and roll it to the ground and use sand and wet barriers to extinguish it.
It is obviously a team that has a long battle with the Southern Dynasty and has a lot of experience in fighting.
After all, the flying fire thunder and large sulphurs that were projected from the Divine Machinery Army were only a few. Most of them were launching rockets, fire nest cars, cyclone cannons, leather cannons, bomb droppers, plus a small number of iron arm bows, strong crossbows and other traditional weapons.
Moreover, once the melee starts, these large equipment lose most of its usefulness, and are not as effective as traditional crossbows.
Therefore, under the attack of the firearms in the sky, this Northern Army not only did not fall into the disadvantage, but also fought happily, but also approached the camp established by the Shenji Army several times, breaking into the demolition and filling in several defense lines and fortifications.
It can be said that the level ladder is orderly, and the advancement and retreat are orderly, which makes people feel an unshakable illusion. They can even cover the crossbowmen to approach, and use their fast and fierce shooting to disrupt and suppress the firearm troops arranged at the forefront.
However, all of this changed when the troops under my command were put into the battlefield.
With the continuous drums and whistle, facing our nearest wing, it quickly contracted and then turned into a team that went forward to fight.
The Sixth Auxiliary Army Group, which was the first to complete the array, also stepped forward and collided head-on with the separated enemy army. It was a long time to say that, and then it was soon, and many changes had taken place in this moment.
The soldiers who rushed to the front were some soldiers holding tubular rods and small shields. After they trot, they suddenly stopped and pulled out a long horizontal formation, used the small shield to support the rods and hammers, and then suddenly knocked on the edge of the shield. The sound of ping-ping sound suddenly sounded, and the other side fell down, and the vanguards rushed to the front.
He quickly beat the card and beat all three spoils to empty the three spoils in one breath. The auxiliary troops woke up and waved the hammer, approached and rushed into the array, swung the cards and rods, and the blood splashed. The troops from the back team also bypassed their lineups, and rushed into the blocked enemy army from both wings with guns and swords.
So, because of this kind of cover-assault tactic, the team sent by the enemy formation to fight was unable to last a few encounters and retreated.
The corpses were left behind by being chased and killed. With the support of the crossbowmen who were hurriedly turning around from the formation, and with the support of the arrows and rains, they forced the pursuit of the auxiliary troops and stopped at the edge of the formation.
But then, the war was not so smooth. After the division of troops to fight, most of the Northern Army quickly gave up their continued offensive and efforts, and contracted the entire team under the cover of the dim twilight, and slowly retreated northward.
The Shenji Army in the camp and the infantry and soldiers responsible for covering the Shenji Army did not go out to pursue the camp again. They just watched the enemy hundreds of steps away turn to change formations and leave.
However, after seeing the performance of the Sixth Auxiliary Army, my subordinates were eager to take the initiative to fight. The facts proved that they were prepared, and most of the enemy troops gathered together were not so easy to get rid of.
With the several friendly forces who took the initiative to fight and attack, they were able to change the entire team relatively calmly and retreat alternately, only losing the troops who were behind the formation.
This kind of combat literacy and command efficiency make people admire them.
"This man is Ping Navy,"
After examining the captured military flag style, someone recognized it.
"One of the five major armies under the Andong camp of the Northern Dynasty..."
"It can be traced back to the farthest time. During the Qianyuan period, the origin of the Lao Andong attacking army..."
"No wonder it's so difficult to fight..."
Therefore, there are many mountains and valleys in Andongdao, with continuous ravines, cold climate and strong people's customs, so it is also rich in outstanding infantry and archers.
In the ancient Goguryeo Kingdom, it was found in the dangers of mountains and rivers, and gathered the might of all races. With a corner of the land, it survived the three great battles of Emperor Yang of Sui and the two sieges of Emperor Taizong of Tang.
In the era of Emperor Gaozong, he was dragged down by the famous general Li Ji using the scorched earth tactic of "killing the farming people in spring and burning them in autumn", and destroyed by famine and civil strife. He became the Andong Protectorate under Xue Rengui, and after hundreds of years of tug-of-war and management.
During the Taixing period of Qianyuan and Gong of Liang, the attacking army sent by Liang set out from Denglai and crossed the sea to expel the rebels of the Andong Protectorate, and then deviated from the rear of Fanyang's rebels' nest.
Then, with the reason of pursuing the remnants of Anshi's rebels, most of the tribal vassals in Andong were wiped out one by one, and the Da clan Bohai Kingdom was destroyed, and finally, it turned into Andong Road, one of the twenty-four roads in the world during the Taixing period.
After that, after the Andong attacked the army, stationed on the spot to expand the colonies, established prefectures and counties, and changed the throne to the designated officials, the so-called powerful Longwu Army Group was formed, which was called the branch of the Andong lineage.
It is divided into two major lineages, the first generation of Andong's commander Xue Song, and the Liao County Counterattack and the Luoxian lineage.
Xue Song was a surrendered general who was recruited by Liang Gong from the An family's rebellion camp. However, his family was quite prominent. His ancestor was the first general manager of the Andong marching and guardian Xue Rengui. His uncle Xue Na was a famous general in the Kaiyuan Western Expedition. His father also served as the deputy envoy of the Pinglu Jiedu, so his family had a lot of hope in Andong.
Luo Xian was the first follower of Liang Gong on the way to the west by Emperor Kaiyuan. After the Mawei Incident, he was entrusted with the responsibility. He stayed and led the soldiers who were unwilling to go west to recruit soldiers on the spot, and fought with the various rebels entrenched in the pass for a year, and was named Jingnan Army.
It was not until Liang Gong led his troops out of Sanguan and recovered Guanzhong all the way, that he returned to his command and became the leader of the army alone. And the Anton attacking army was led by these two masters.
Therefore, many generals and families in Andong used these two types of horse leaders to follow. Taking the chaos in the world after the Yiwei Rebellion as a division, the princes and families in Andong also had some kind of division.
Among them, the Xue family was pacified by Emperor Chengguang, and a group of generals finally returned to the Northern Dynasties, becoming an important force and bridgehead to intervene in the division of the vassals of Andong.
As for the Luo family, they were more inclined to the Liang family in the South China Sea. They had a branch that was separated to Hainan very early and became the minister of the world, so the Baye Luofan was found. Therefore, they had secretly communicated with the south for all dynasties.
In my early years, my cover identity when I was in Luodu was also from a branch of Anton Roche.
I also think of the past with another identity, and I feel a lot of nostalgia and melancholy.
Having said that, among the Andong generals who returned to the Northern Dynasties,
