Chapter 44: The army is sent to the west, and the war is coming
Gu Xiao followed Du Song in a heavy mood and headed towards Hetuhara. Along the way, the troops were not alert to the war, but on the contrary, they seemed very relaxed. In the entire team, from Du Song to the small soldiers, almost no one really took the Jianzhou Jurchens seriously.
In response to this, Gu Xiao naturally shook his head secretly.
No one knew better than him that if he didn't do anything, what was waiting for this army, and the general waiting for this army would be an unprecedented defeat! From Du Song, the chief general of the army, to the soldiers, it can be said that there were very few people escaping.
"Du Junmen, do we really have to attack like this directly?" Along the way, Gu Xiao felt a little solemn when Du Song was a little nervous because of Yang Hao's blind command at the beginning, but he was obviously very relaxed. He ignored the cooperation with other troops and horses, and it was obvious that he did not take Jianlu seriously. He immediately advised him.
He didn't believe that at this point, the Wild Boar Skin didn't know their intention to fight. If there was no accident, the Wild Boar Skin might have been waiting for them in front. Therefore, Gu Xiao strongly hoped to dissuade Du Song from giving up this lonely and in-depth combat method, but cooperated with the other three troops and fought with the other troops according to the original combat method!
"Hmph!" Du Song, the white-haired man, snorted disdainfully when he heard this.
In the army, all 30,000 soldiers and horses had already set off. When Gu Xiao said this, everyone else heard it. At that moment, another general, Wang Xuan, sneered and said, "Geng Junmen, I think you are taking those barbarians too seriously. You are just a bunch of barbarians. As for what you care about so much?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Xiao shouted, "Is this the first time you are leading a army? Do you even know the simple principle of knowing yourself and your enemy and being able to win a hundred battles? Our army has been gathering for so long. I believe Jianlu has already known our current situation, but we now know nothing about the enemy. This is exactly the enemy's darkness and I'm brightness. You don't know yet, do you have to pay attention to the enemy's principles?"
At this moment, their army had already passed through Fushun Pass and headed towards the Suzi River Valley. Since it was called the river valley, it would naturally not be a particularly flat place. Therefore, Gu Xiao strongly hoped that Du Song could send people to explore the way forward first and then continue to set off.
It's just obvious. His opinion was not adopted.
"Hmph!" Du Song finally spoke, "I still need you to teach me all my life?"
In Du Song's eyes, Gu Xiao is a boy who is arrogant after winning a few small victories. Moreover, he has heard of this boy's reputation in the world, so he doesn't like this boy from beginning to end.
Gu Xiao was furious when he saw Du Song and said anxiously: "Military Sect, if we go deeper in the army alone, it will inevitably lead to Jianlu being able to concentrate his absolute superior forces to deal with us. At that time, that's not a joke!"
"Hmph! I understand!" Du Song said lightly.
When Gu Xiao saw Du Song's behavior, he knew that he had not listened to it at all. Of course he knew that the 30,000 troops led by Du Song were the absolute elite and main force among the 100,000 Ming troops. In history, Du Song ended up being annihilated because of the mistake of underestimating the enemy and advancing.
Therefore, Gu Xiao tried his best to dissuade Du Song and told him not to advance in such a hurry.
It’s a pity that Du Song obviously looked down on him, who entrusted his reputation in the world. Moreover, he is famous for being infamous in the world. In this world where there is always a secret connection between the world and the world, he, a person who is notorious in the world, naturally seems very isolated in the officialdom.
Seeing Du Song never listened to his advice, Gu Xiao could only retreat in resentment.
However, just as he retreated, when he turned around, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. The reason why he had just tried to stop Du Song from rashly entering the army, making the mistake of underestimating the enemy, and was annihilated by the wild boar skin with an absolute advantage. On the other hand, he also had the intention of leaving a backup plan.
He knew very well that if Du Song never listened to his good advice, then when he underestimated the enemy and wanted to lead 10,000 troops to advance towards Hetuhara, he would be destined to have his own existence. At that time, he had prestige in the Shaanxi-Gansu region and was also the one with the most troops left, he could easily make all the military power fall into his hands. At that time, with his four Fenglin Volcano divisions and the help led by Shangye Boar Skin, winning may not be impossible.
The army continued to advance towards the front, and Gu Xiao continued to follow the army with his 10,000 troops, but after being disgusted by Du Song, it was obvious that other soldiers and horses around began to vaguely reject their part of the troops. For a moment, they seemed very isolated, but Gu Xiao wanted to see this situation.
He knew very well that in this way, the greater the chance of his ability to show off.
The vast army passed through the Suzi River Valley very easily. There was indeed an ambush in the Suzi River Valley, but the ambush seemed quite powerless. Thousands of rat-tailed rat-combed with gold coins, shaved around their heads, leaving only a small handful in the center, and even called the Eight Banners soldiers with gold coins, with gold coins coming out of the valley, but were easily killed by thousands of officials.
In the eyes of Du Song and others, this clearly proves that the combat effectiveness of these Jianlu is nothing more than that. At this moment, Du Song and others are increasingly underestimating the enemy. At this time, because Du Song lacks sufficient confidants in this army, a considerable number of them have begun to move closer to him.
At that moment, Du Song took the 10,000 elite soldiers that he could control now and began to advance towards the front, and unconsciously derailed with the rear army.
Gu Xiao was in the rear army. Looking at the gradually scattered queue in front of him, he could feel a cold sweat in his heart. While ordering his troops to approach the big carts, he was already ready to go into battle himself. If there were still Jianlu ambushers in this Suzi Valley and sneak attacking them, it would be no joke.
Fortunately, the worst case still did not happen. As the army continued to advance, the Eight Banners Army of Wild Boar Skin did not appear again. Obviously, Wild Boar Skin did not intend to fight them here, but just arranged a group of soldiers to take on the task of seducing the enemy.
The army continued to rush forward. In the eyes of Du Song and others, the Eight Banners soldiers were already a group of vulnerable wastes. At that moment, as soon as they left the Suzi River Valley, they came to Sarhu, not far from Hethuhara. Du Song, who was eager to win the merits, ordered impatiently: 'This army gate personally led 10,000 troops to continue setting off, and you and others stayed in Sarhu for preparation!'
Hum! As soon as he finished speaking, Du Song set out with ten thousand soldiers impatiently.
Scramble to reincarnate! Gu Xiao cursed in his heart!
Du Song personally led his troops to attack Jilin Cliff, the important land of Hetuhara. In Sarhu, there was only about 20,000 main force left.
It seems that the wild boar skin is coming soon? Gu Xiao said in his heart. He knew very well that since Du Song had made the mistake of underestimating the enemy and advancing, the wild boar skin would never watch it. It is estimated that the army he led himself has begun to come to this side. What awaits him will inevitably be a tough battle.
"Come, convey my order and order my brothers to prepare immediately and take out all the things on the cart for me. Everyone is ready for gunpowder and arrows, ready for a battle that may occur at any time!" Gu Xiao saw Du Song throwing them down and running to attack Jilin Cliff, and immediately ordered without hesitation.
"Yes, general!" Soon, his orders were immediately executed by his subordinates, and the things that were originally covered with black cloth on the big cart began to be taken out.
"Hahahaha!" A burst of laughter immediately sounded around, because in the eyes of the Ming army around, the secret weapons that Gu Xiao took out that made everyone extremely curious were so funny. The swords that were almost as tall as a person, very narrow and long, and the long spear that was almost more than ten feet long were so funny. This weapon was so bulky, how could it fight?
"I ordered my brothers to camp and rest immediately, notify the other soldiers around me, and let them all prepare for battle for me. Also, inform everyone that tomorrow morning, get up at the third day of the day, and cook at the fifth day of the day, everyone must take the weapons in my hands, and even if they sleep, they must be used as pillows!" After the things on the cart had been taken out and sent to everyone's hands, Gu Xiao ordered again.
"Yes, military gate!" In this army he formed, he had absolute prestige on the battlefield, so his orders immediately reached everyone's ears.
Soon, his order was implemented by everyone, and the logistics soldiers immediately began to prepare for camping. As for the other soldiers, they were still holding the weapons in their hands and putting them in martial law. At this moment, Liu Yan came up and asked strangely: "Military Sect, what are we doing now?"
"Eat, go to bed after dinner, and then wait for tomorrow's fierce battle!" Gu Xiao smiled and said this. (To be continued.)
