95 Food and Grass to Lure Enemy Soldiers(1/2)
Shi Guduo was sitting in the commander's mansion where the Jin Army was liberated, sighing. The last time the army attacked Qingshi City, it was counterattacked by King Xin's army. The Jin Army, which was already short of food, lost all its food, grass and baggage. Now the main force was defeated and retreated.
The food in Jiezhou City is almost out, and the surrounding people have moved south or entered Qingshi City in Shitiao Mountain. The Jin army has no targets for harvesting grass and grain. Now food is in short supply and people are panicked. Especially the Khitan people and the Xi people.
Both the Bohai and Han troops became emotionally unstable due to lack of food.
He had already inquired about how the King Xin's army entrenched nearby in the south of Hancheng transported the grain, grass and livestock that had robbed the Jin army, and how they transported them away. King Xin's army used ships to go northward along the Fenhe River to transport
To Fenzhou where the main force of King Xin's army was entrenched.
Nowadays, after the autumn harvest, Qingshi City is said to have had a good harvest. According to the reports from spies posing as merchants, the officials of Qingshi City said that after they left enough food for themselves, all of it would be transported to Fenzhou.
Of course, the spies pretended to be traders, but they were just to get information. They went to buy mirrors and transparent glass to sell to various nobles in the Golden Kingdom in the north. Then the king's army was powerful in the war, and there were treasures. The mirrors and transparent glass were sold to the north.
The nobles' hands are worth thousands of gold, and they can earn several times. After all, the generals of the Jin Army still want to make a fortune by the way.
After getting the news, Shi Guduo could seize an opportunity to make a meritorious service this time. He immediately sent out detective horses to find out the information and search for suspicious targets. He planned to intercept and kill the food and grass of King Xin's army. He always asked King Xin's army to intercept and kill Jin's army.
Food and grass, this time they also came to intercept the food and grass of King Xin's army. However, King Xin's army is powerful and has very strong fighting power. You must be careful, otherwise in front of King Xin's army, whose combat power is stronger than that of Jin's army, you will be accidentally killed.
The entire army was wiped out. The Prince of the Song Dynasty 95
Thinking about it, Shi Guduo was thinking about how to deal with King Xin's army. At this moment, he suddenly heard a scout outside the hall reporting a message. A sound of "report--" was heard from the commander's residence, and a figure rushed into Shi Guduo's room.
As soon as Tan Ma came in, he knelt down and clasped his fists and said: "General, our troops discovered that a grain team appeared from the direction of Shitiao Mountain!" Only then did Shi Guduo see that the person coming was his Tan Ma Camp commander.
He jumped up and asked, "What did you say? A grain transport team appeared in the direction of Zhongtiao Mountain. Which direction did it go to?"
The commander of the Jin Army's exploration camp held his fists and said: "General, they are heading north. They want to bypass the eastern part of our Jiezhou City and head north." Sure enough, it was as expected by the spy who was dressed as a merchant. Shi
Guduo's face lit up and he said: "We want to bypass the corridor between Jiezhou and Yanchi, are you sure?" The commander of Tanma Camp nodded quickly and said: "General, don't worry, you can't be wrong. I will wait for them to come out and follow them."
After a long time, they indeed headed towards Jiezhou and Yanchi Corridor, and they rushed back as soon as they confirmed the situation." After hearing this, Shi Guduo couldn't help but rub his palms together and ordered: "Please tell me the specific situation quickly.
The more detailed the troop deployment of the grain team, the better."
The commander of the Jin Army's Tanma Battalion recalled: "The grain escort team consisted of more than 5,000 people, half of whom were civilians. The leading general was named Meng. I don't know who it is, but it is very likely that he was the general of King Xin's army. Yun.
The grain trucks are all big trucks, about five hundred in number, and they are full of sacks."
After hearing the words of the commander of the Jin Army's Tanma Camp, Shi Guduo couldn't help but be overjoyed. There was a lot of food and grass, and the number of people in the food transport team was not too small. For the strength of their Jin soldiers, they robbed this batch of food and grass from King Xin's army.
It's so easy! Once you intercept these grains and grasses, your Jiezhou will not be short of grains and grasses.
But then Shi Guduo frowned. He had to be careful because he believed in Wang Jun's trick. Shi Guduo thought about it and asked, "Have you found any other Song troops coming out of Zhongtiao Mountain?" Jin Jun inspected the horse.
The battalion commander shook his head and said: "As told to the general, Qingshi City is tightly defended and the general did not send anyone to explore inside. But it was still the same as usual. As soon as morning came, the city was crowded with people and the sound of killing was loud, and it lasted until night.
Calm down. Also, the general did not notice the troops descending from Shitiao Mountain again."
If no other troops from King Xin's army come down, then there is no need to worry. With the two thousand or so of King Xin's army and more than two thousand civilians, he can still eat them. News from all aspects immediately dispelled Shi Guduo's worries.
It seems that after defeating the main force of our army this time, General Xinwang's army surnamed Gao became arrogant. Do you think that with more than 2,000 people escorting grain and grass, we dare not touch you? This batch of grain and grass must be intercepted and killed this time.
Let me show you how powerful Wang Jun is, and let you know that I, Jin Jun, dominates the world and is not someone to be trifled with!
Shi Guduo thought of this and shouted: "Come on, bring the map to me, general!" The guard next to Shi Guduo immediately ran to the side to search, and after a while he took out the map of mountains and rivers near the corridor from Jiezhou to Yanchi.
, handed it to Shi Guduo to see.
Looking at the map, Shi Guduo said proudly: "King Xin's army thought that it was moving quickly and secretly, and wanted to advance from Jiezhou to the Yanchi corridor towards Fenshui River in the north. To the east of Jiezhou City is Yanchi, and our army in Jiezhou can be nearby.
Intercept the opponent. This corridor is a dead end. As long as the grain escort team of King Xin's army is intercepted here, there will be no way from heaven to earth. Haha, then you can let me have your way."
Shi Guduo had a proud look on his face, feeling proud of himself for getting the information early and taking the initiative to find out the information. He ordered the commander of the Jin Army's Tanma Camp: "Okay, go back quickly and send someone to keep an eye on this transport team.
The most important thing is to pay attention to whether there are other people around them, and check carefully, we need to be on guard against this being a bait thrown by the tall bastard of King Xin's army to us, you understand."
The commander of the Jin Army's Tanma Camp hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "Don't worry, general, the general will arrange manpower to keep a close eye on them. There will definitely be no false alarms." Shi Guduo nodded with satisfaction and said: "Go ahead, this time the robbery will happen."
If you trust the king's army with food and fodder, I will take credit for your merit!"
The grain transport team led by Zhao Zhen and the beasts had already arrived at the corridor between Jiezhou and Yanchi. This corridor was very short, only two or three miles away. The grain transport team were all horse-drawn carriages and cavalry, and it took about a quarter of an hour.
You can get through here in a little while.
If the Jin army intercepts grain and grass, now is the best time. Zhao Zhen secretly ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle, and be ready to send off signal flares when the Jin soldiers attack, so that the three armies secretly lurking in the distance can get the news.
Sure enough, not long after walking along the edge of the salt pond, shouts of killing came from the front, rear and left. Shi Guduo, who had led people to ambush here early in the morning, heard from the spies that the grain escort team had entered the corridor, and immediately decided to launch an attack.
.
As a loud arrow exploded into the sky with fireworks, the golden soldiers who were ambushing on three sides moved in unison, shouting one by one, and rushed towards the grain escort team.
After hearing the cry of killing, Zhao Zhen on the horse stretched out his hand and shouted: "Stop advancing, quickly form a formation!" The soldiers stopped, drove the carriage into a large circle, and then pulled the horse pulling the cart.
They all unharnessed their horses. Then they unloaded the sacks from the cart one by one and blocked them in the gaps between the carts. Then they erected the carts horizontally and a simple city wall was built.
The beast entered the formation to meet Zhao Zhen and said in a low voice: "Chitose, you just sit here and take command. Just leave small things like charging into the formation to me, the beast." Zhao Zhen nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll leave it to you, be careful.
Click." The ferocious beast slapped its chest: "Good friends have to fight on behalf of good friends. Don't worry, Chitose, I have to get rid of all the egg yolks beaten by these golden dogs today, haha."
After saying that, the beast turned its head and shouted: "Five hundred archers prepared arrows and began to prepare their bows. Another thousand and five hundred spearmen were ready for defense and were responsible for close defense. The remaining three thousand cavalry were on standby at any time, ready to go out and counterattack.
Jin Army!" Seeing that his arrangements were quite orderly, Zhao Zhen chuckled, thinking that this beast could be considered to be on its own.
The civilians in these five thousand people are actually strictly trained soldiers of the Golden Dragon Army. They are well-trained and immediately lined up and prepared for battle. The Prince of the Song Dynasty through the Special Forces 95
Under the sound of rumbling horses stomping, the Jin Army's cavalry galloped over first. They were less than fifty steps away from the simple vehicle formation, but looking at the vehicle formation in front of them that restrained the cavalry charge, they couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded. Right here.
At that moment, following the beast's command, five hundred archers took the lead and started firing arrows.
Accompanied by the roar of beasts, a rain of arrows flew up into the sky and shot into the cavalry formation of the Jin Army. Screams of pain erupted one after another. The Jin soldiers at the front retreated one after another. Shi Guduo raised his scimitar.
Shouted: "Charge quickly and kill those who retreat!"
Under the personal supervision of the general, the Jin soldiers turned around and charged towards the chariot formation. The Jin soldiers and cavalry rushed forward, and the opposite side stabbed them with spears from the chariot formation. The Jin soldiers and cavalry who rushed to the front continued to slash and kill.
After being stabbed, the horse fell to the ground and died. However, there were many people who were not stabbed in the vital parts and could not die in a short period of time. They lay there screaming! Sometimes they were trampled by their own horses, and they were immediately trampled to death.
Death is too tragic to behold.
The Jin Army cavalry could not break through the chariot formation, so Shi Guduo mobilized the infantry to rush forward quickly. The Jin Army infantrymen rushed up one by one with their shields. When the Jin Army rushed under the chariot formation, bursts of shouts of killing suddenly came from all around.
Shi Guduo, who was behind the formation, looked back and broke into a cold sweat.
In the north, west and south, the banners of the Song Army appeared! At this time, all the Jin soldiers were instantly frightened to death.
In fact, since Shi Guduo's main force suffered a heavy loss outside Qingshi City, Shi Guduo has been more careful and sent out a few probing horses to pay attention to the surrounding movements. But God is not as good as man, and the three armies sent by Zhao Zhen are all King Xin's troops.
They are veteran soldiers who have practiced counter-reconnaissance and are very experienced in their own right. In addition, these sergeants walked as early as the darkest time at night, walking twenty miles to find hidden places to lurk, just in case any Jin soldiers spies found their lurking place.
place, they immediately sent out young men to kill all the spies released from the golden chariot, leaving them blind! The Jin army's detective horses were scouting everywhere, and there were only two teams missing, so they couldn't notice it in a short time.
Faced with an ambush on three sides and the dilemma of salt pond water on one side, Shi Guduo reacted quickly and organized troops to resist.
Shi Guduo had a total of 20,000 troops in Jiezhou City, half of whom were Han troops with weak combat effectiveness.
This time to intercept the grain and fodder of King Xin's army, Shi Guduo brought 15,000 men and horses. Although there were many people, most of them were Han troops and did not have much fighting power. Originally, Shi Guduo did not have much confidence, plus there were many people around him.
The shouts of killing and the rumbling of hooves made him feel a little scared. The reputation of King Xin's army made the ordinary Jin soldiers even more afraid. When the Jin army saw enemies on all sides, their morale was immediately unstable, especially
It was the Jin soldiers and the Han soldiers who were the first to panic. At this moment, there was another cry of killing from the front, and a large hole was suddenly opened in the wall where the carts were piled up, and groups of cavalry were galloping with guns in hand.
He rushed out shouting.
Holding their shields, the infantrymen of the Jin soldiers and the Han soldiers, who were overwhelmed by the shouts of killing from all directions, saw a group of people killed in front of them, threw down their shields and ran back, screaming.
King Xin's cavalry roared in from all directions, and they were surrounded by King Xin's cavalry. They were so densely packed that it looked like there were quite a lot of people. The defensive front that Shi Guduo had just organized was shaken by the impact of the Han troops who fled back from the front.
, the soldiers of the Jin Army were panicking, not knowing whether they could block the opponent's attack.
Shi Guduo pulled out his sword and shouted: "Warriors of the Kingdom of Jin, whoever kills the enemy general will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver! He will be promoted to the third level! Whoever kills ten enemy soldiers will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver."
"Immediately afterwards, the guards of the Jin Army also shouted.
These words were like a shot in the arm, giving the originally frightened Jin soldiers a surge of courage. They were all gearing up to fight, and they would have to kill one or two of the high-ranking officials and generals who believed in the king's army.
However, the situation far exceeded Shi Guduo's expectation. The beasts led the cavalry to kill first. Each of the cavalrymen were all well-trained and capable soldiers. They raised their spears and advanced. The golden soldiers who could not escape were immediately skewered. Although
This place is not very deep and is not suitable for large-scale cavalry galloping battles. However, three thousand cavalrymen, led by wild beasts, spun and charged, stabbing with long spears, and the golden soldiers fell to the ground one after another.
The cavalry had an absolute advantage over the infantry. The Jin Army's infantry rout immediately blocked the Jin Army's cavalry, preventing the Jin Army's cavalry from advancing, causing the Jin Army's formation to become chaotic. The beast took the lead and led the cavalry to charge.
The soldiers could not resist, and the beasts led the cavalry to tear a gap in the Jin army's defensive formation. Once the gap opened, the Jin army was even more unable to withstand the charge of the cavalry.
Facing the cavalry on these tall horses, all the Jin soldiers were assassinated and fell to the ground. Seeing the spears stabbing, companions kept falling to the ground, the morale of the bandits and Jin soldiers began to collapse. Although Shi Guduo offered a thousand taels of silver reward,
The price of being promoted to level 3 is surprisingly high, but it also requires life flowers. Many soldiers in the Golden Army are not afraid of death, but they cannot rush forward knowing that they will die. With this idea, all the Golden Soldiers
A disorderly retreat began, and the entire formation was completely in disarray.
At this time, Shi Yongnu, who was watching the enemy formation and commanding the battle, had his eyes and ears in all directions. He was having a fierce battle with the three armies of Di Lei, Zhao Xiaodao and Yan Chengfang on the outside. When he saw that something was wrong behind the scenes, he shouted to the guards beside him:
"Tell the commander of the cavalry to bring people up to stop them!"
This cavalry captain was an old man next to Shi Guduo. As soon as he heard the order from the guard, he immediately led his men, Ma Bai, to bypass the defeated infantry on the left, and rushed towards the beast's cavalry.
When the beast's three thousand cavalry were stopped by one thousand Jin Army cavalry, Di Lei, Zhao Xiaodao and the others also reached the front of the Jin Army's main formation.
When Shi Guduo saw that the situation was unfavorable, he was furious and immediately sent his guards to kill the commander in charge of Tanma Camp to vent his hatred.
At this time, Shi Guduo cursed and gathered his troops. At this time, the three-pronged army of King Xin had defeated the Jin Army's peripheral defense forces and had reached the front of the Chinese army. Shi Guduo slapped his neck and shouted: "Hold it!"
It's a pity that these golden soldiers under Shi Gu have been attacked by cavalry from all directions and began to be defeated. Special Forces Time Travel: The Prince of the Song Dynasty 95
