Chapter 752: Only envy Jin Wu for a lifetime (continued)

During this period, in order to boost morale and invigorate people, Zhu Lao San had also planned many attacks and battles, but most of them failed to get any money from these Sha Tuo troops, but instead damaged some troops. And the biggest result of the battle was that he made people rush down to the city secretly before dawn. Potentially, the nearly dry city was buried under the cover of sludge until dawn, and then he used the big fanfare inside the city gate to attack and attract attention; Only then was able to violently flick and defeat a Sha Tuo soldier behind the side of the attack.

However, the majority of the Shatuo soldiers who succeeded in the ambush finally rushed out with the help of their companions to break through the encirclement with horsepower, so that the rebels dominated by infantry were too late to chase them and did not dare to chase them far. There are only a hundred and ten first-level gains. And Zhu Laosan once again deeply felt that his team of centaurs was still brave and tough, but the weakness of field battle preparation and response was insufficient; and secretly determined to spare no effort to create a horse team that can support and maneuver. .

After all, these Shatuo Hugou are not only fierce and cunning, they are very good at breaking into zero harassment and sneak attacks, but also can bravely rush and break through in frontal confrontations; they can also assist and cover each other when encountering unfavorable situations. Below, the ease of leaving the battle or running is beyond the reach. But if they really want to show their decay and fatigue without reluctantly catching up, these Hu Qi who relies on the horsepower advantage will not hesitate to turn around and take a bite.

Therefore, if there is a horse team that can move forward and retreat freely and can move and maneuver outside, and cooperate with this formation for effective early warning, interception and entanglement; then once again encounter this kind of aggressive attack and turn into the windy Hu Qi lineup; this formation Most of the players do not have to fight so hard. Even if you fight for a moment of buffer, it won't make the team so unprepared to deal with it and lose your strength, and lose several generals who are accustomed to fighting old brothers.

You know, as a member of the old rebels, his subordinates are not without the experience and countermeasures against the official army horse team. Even in many cases, under inferior equipment and training, they struggled to drag down the opponent's morale and spirit, and then put into the truly powerful old camp and pro-army, thinking that the decisive final blow.

Therefore, by virtue of these accustomed tactics, he has fought against Jiangdong and Huainan's elite horses; he also successfully repelled and defeated the powerful forces in Pinglu and reformed the towns; and even succeeded in the battle of Surabaya on Huai. The last fresh force of the Tianping Army that blocked and trapped the battle to the end was given by the court to the Tianping Army Jiedu and the Jiangxi envoy Cao Quanzhu an armored cavalry.

Although a lot of casualties and bloody battle to the final result, hundreds of armored equipment and more than two hundred healthy horses were seized in the battle, and Huang Hao was taken away in disguised form by the front army of the general's mansion. ; Afterwards, they only left hundreds of old and tattered armor suits for compensation and exchange. What subsequently corresponded to the turbulent sentiment among his men was a large quantity of supplies sent in the name of his brother Zhu Quan.

This is also the beginning and cause of his mind that the balance of his heart began to gradually fall to the south, and the miss of the management party arose. Because of these intermittent additional supplements and support, his subordinates can always recover faster than others after the war, and the corresponding wounded and sick can also get better treatment and return to the team, and then become the backbone of the team. And backbone.

He even secretly obtained part of the training and exercise manuals that flowed out from the south, and after adding a large number of new pawns again and again, he was able to form the corresponding combat effectiveness and organizational location faster than others; and the snowballs were usually dozens of pieces. The same sequence, but it is the rebel armed forces that are growing and fluctuating, and they have finally obtained a key turning opportunity to guard Heyang Nanguan.

But now, this set of tactics already used skillfully in the rebel army, in front of these Shatuo Huqis, is not very effective. So he must have a cavalry to change this unfavorable situation.

However, the Daqi New Dynasty itself did not have a sufficient source of riding horses. Even after entering the customs, the hundreds of thousands of horses seized from the old stables in Ouchi, as well as the tens of thousands of horses at the end of the month in the grazing grounds and paddocks of the Shence Army were already By the generals of the guards in the Guan and the cruising and defensive envoys of the outer town, the near water tower was divided up first, and it was not his turn to divide the profit. (Many of them were sold to the south by resale)

As for the powers that he has deliberately made friends with, such as Wang Chongrong in Hezhong Town, and Cao Xiang in Tianping Town, they are not the places where good horses are produced and cavalry wins their strengths; there is only Zhuge Shuang in Heyang Town with a lot of connections. , Can build and maintain a decent cavalry by relying on the territory in Hebei. Therefore, the last time he was supplemented by the corresponding cattle, horses and pack animals was after the Huazhou grain platform occupied by Wei Bojun.

However, this team imitated the Taiping Army’s riding pawn system and used mules and horses to travel on the left and right "Kaijiadu" (500 people each), although it was in the process of conquering the exiles, rebellious troops, and local groups. He has repeatedly made contributions; but he lost all his losses in a battle outside Huayin City. Thinking of this, Zhu Lao San felt a faint pain again. This was the biggest maneuvering force of his subordinates except for the personal team, which had suffered most of the casualties.

"No, those Shatuo dogs are attacking again..."

At this time, a voice yelled again; but it was the new head of the flag Yuhou Su, who was called "Lucky Sura" by the person next to Zhu Laosan.

Because this time, Su was in the sequence of being focused on by the Sha Tuo soldiers; also because of luck, he escaped from a large number of soldiers who were trapped in the moat and were slaughtered and shot. Afterwards, in addition to being covered with mud and drinking a few mouthfuls of muddy water, he did not suffer any injuries and brought back the lost general.

"Beat the drums, gather people, and be ready to respond..."

Looking at the smoke and dust billowing in the distance that was fast approaching and had already begun the battle without interruption, Zhu Laosan frowned when he heard the words, and ordered to the left and right: However, he did not hear an immediate response. , But seeing the left and right will be the color of hesitation and hesitation with lingering palpitations on his face.

"Supervisor, my brothers are really exhausted and unable to fight anymore..."

In the end, Li Bintang, his deputy, bit the bullet and said:

"It's unreasonable. We were trapped here for a while and couldn't advance or retreat. We finally hoped that the reinforcements came, but now we want to escape and fear death and stand on the sidelines... Not to mention how much benefit and cooperation we have received before, but now we are shrinking. Now, is this still a person?"

However, Zhu Laosan slammed the flog on the city disc and said angrily:

"You are useless and soft goods are not on the market, I will take the guards out of the city to meet them...Even if you die in the hands of thieves, it is better to be with you and other fearless people..."

As he turned around and walked down the city, the left and right will suddenly explode and persuade them to shout:

"Supervisor, think twice,"

"Du Yuhou wait a minute..."

"Military owner, military owner, listen to me..."

However, under the head of the guard team assembled by Zhu Lao San, no matter how turbulent in the city of Huayin, they finally gathered one in haste, and the generals will lead the soldiers and follow them. The formation of the support team; just watched out of the city without stopping.

About five or six miles away, they rushed and drove with all their strength, that is, it didn’t take long for them to get closer; however, Zhu Lao San, who was the first to die immediately, was a little surprised to see the smoke and dust. In the middle, the Shatuo wandering horses scattered and fled; and at the location of the reinforcements, there was a group of long carts that were slowly moving and moving, and the sergeants and pack animals hiding behind them. Temporary array composed of.

Just outside of these moving long carts, the corpses of people and horses were scattered everywhere, and there were sporadic flames and burn marks scattered in the meantime, showing the final cost of this Sanduo Ranger assault. And looking at the team that was still steadily and steadily approaching, it was obvious that these Shatuo Turks hadn't even broken through their array, or disrupted their formation and had to retreat with hatred.

While watching the results of this scene, Zhu Laosan couldn't help but miss again in his heart; this is the rumored Taiping military cart array as the camp fence to cooperate and cover the firearms, bows and crossbows to kill the enemy. ? At least in this unobstructed Pingchuan wilderness, facing these wind-like Fan Hu Qingqi, there is such an effect and benefit.

—I am the dividing line I miss —

In Xianyang, on the other side of the Chang'an suburbs, the party chief and Yin Xia Sui Jiedu Tuoba Sigong, who had successfully crossed the east bank of the Weishui River, felt a little bit anxious and his tongue was scorched.

Because, he was under his command from the so-called Dangxiang eight tribes from Dashazhin in Pingxia, and now they have fled, failed, and have disappeared. In the end, only three surnames and five tribes, including Tuoba clan, remain. 14,000 party soldiers and horses; at least compared to the Shatuo army, which has a high proportion of cavalry, compared with the support of the various ministries outside the Great Wall and the Tartary. There are actually more combat troops.

These southern thief’s cavalry are as difficult as cowhide plasters. Although their mounts are generally good compared to most northern knights, and their archery skills to charge into battle are not very threatening, they have their own bite at all costs. The perseverance and tenacity; therefore, once they were given it, they would be entangled, and in the end they would not kill a large number of party items. Instead, they would be the southern pirates who had more horses and hurried to catch up, and were able to dismount and fight in battle. step.

As long as they have completed the array on their way and on the rush, the party members who have consumed a lot of energy in the maneuvering transfer, it is difficult to rush their front line; instead, they will be killed and injured by layers of crossbow firearms. After the rout, he had to retreat from the front and go around elsewhere. At this time, the Southern Pirate Cavalry became active again, rejoining the pursuit, harassment and containment;

As a result, the party committees and ministries were forced to abandon and lose all kinds of cattle and horses on the way. However, along with the losses, there are still many small heads and account holders who are reluctant to bear these, and fall behind, fall behind, or secretly return to look for them; and they are also the party members. He believed that the backbone and backbone of the army was driven like a finger. . (End of this chapter)
