Chapter 255 Split
"Hu Qian, you can't underestimate Iron Harrier," Li Sangou said on the horse.[][].[23][wx].[].[]
More than a thousand iron kites suffered a miserable experience in this battle. Before they could play any role, they were drowned or captured alive together.
But letting them wear it, it was very powerful. Li Sangou even suspected that more than a thousand iron kites could easily kill his cavalrymen. Of course, Wang Ju and himself would not be foolish in fighting with them on the front battlefield.
These iron kites are not only full of heavy armor, including war horses, but also the soldiers selected are warriors. Some soldiers hold weapons not Xia Guo swords, but heavy hammers. Later, Yuan Meng improved the Xixia iron hammer and turned into a hexagonal Xixia Pal hammer, which became the most deadly killer on the battlefield. Often, a single hammer can smash the enemy's heads and even the hard heads can be smashed.
However, no matter whether it is Xixia or Yuanmeng, there are still very few warriors who formally use hammers. They are too heavy and most people cannot play with them.
But Wang Ju was speechless about Li Sangou's superstition of Tie Harrier.
There were no heavy armored cavalry, but the Liao Iron Lin Army was just heavy armored cavalry, but it was not used well. The Song Dynasty also organized the Jingsai Army before, which were more sharp heavy cavalry, far better than the Tielin Army and the Tie Harrier of the Western Xia, and killed Yelu Xiuge miserably.
However, it disappeared for various reasons.
In fact, if Wang Ju and Cai Ting don’t explain clearly, they will be troublesome if they organize more than 10,000 cavalrymen on Huanqing Road immediately.
If you want a sharp cavalry, you must first have a good horse. Not only should you take care of the war horses, but you should not be careless in feeding the horses, or even pull a cart. You should also let it run.
Therefore, raising a cavalry is equivalent to raising three to four infantrymen.
If it is a big Huanqing Road, it is not too much to raise ten thousand cavalrymen. In the five states, there should not be too many idle pastures. The key is this cost and it will be troubles in the future.
Moreover, the Song Dynasty had a policy of destruction and defence. What did the cavalry do? It was in field battles, and the defense was not strong during the fort, so the cost increased. There would be some short-sightedness or appeasement and impeachment by ministers.
But Wang Ju was not superstitious about heavy cavalry, including the Tiefutu of the Jin Kingdom. In history, Jin Wushu led a hundred thousand army, 15,000 guillotine horses, and 5,000 guillotine horses to kill the Southern Song Dynasty. The Kavoma was a medium-light cavalry, and the Tiefutu was a heavy cavalry. As a result, in the battle of Shunchang, Liu Qi killed 50,000 guillotine horses, 10,000 guillotine horses, and 3,000 guillotine horses. Jin Wushu hurriedly retreated, and Yue Fei came to clean up again. He killed 5,000 guillotine horses, 30,000 guillotine horses, and 2,000 guillotine horses, and 5,000 guillotine horses, and 2,000 guillotine horses, and the Jin Kingdom was destroyed. Why? It was too bulky, just like the infantry armor of the Song Dynasty's infantry now, without speed, as long as the tactics are appropriate, there is only a dead end.
Even on the front battlefield, Iron Harrier could not beat Yuan Meng Light Cavalry.
It is impossible to get the Song army to train a Yuanmeng Light Cavalry, but if the new armor that Wang Ju envisioned could succeed, the cavalry would wear a vest weighing more than ten pounds, and then put more than ten pounds of armor on the war horse to protect the key parts, that is, the pseudo-heavy cavalry. In actual mid-light cavalry, then the Iron Harrier would also be seeking death.
But what should I do? I have to give Li Sangou some face.
However, Hu Qian listened to Li Sangou's tricks, but believed it.
It took Hu Qian a long time to wake up and said, "Instructor Zhao, even if that's the case, it's not as important as command."
Li Sangou stopped talking.
If you beat the iron kite like this, it’s good to hit the man. What’s the difference? Or the difference is that the iron kite soldier is very strong. Maybe Wang Ju will sell it for a few more money in the future...
The cavalry of the fourth battalion rushed towards Zewei Village.
If we divide the strength of several invading enemies, it may be the most powerful iron Harrier. Relatively speaking, the army brought to Qingxichuan by Ye Binma is also the most powerful army. The second is the five thousand troops left at Liyuan Fort.
The second is the force of Zewei Village.
They were drawn from Jintang City, which is strictly considered a logistics soldier. In order to reach Pingrong Town from the rugged mountain road, they could only send 3,000 infantry to come, further weakening their combat effectiveness. The worst thing was that they contacted Ye Fengma the day before yesterday, thinking that Huachi County had become the world of their Xixia people, and they were all careless.
But because they were relatively weak, Wang Ju sent Ye to instruct him to increase the defense strength of each village, and he did not capture a single village. Fortunately, they knew themselves and did not covet Pingrong Town. But on the other hand, Pingrong Town did not have much military strength.
There is a river valley in front of Zewei Village, which is also the situation of 90% of Huachi Village. Only a very small number of people live in real mountainous areas, and the rest live in river valleys and earthen plateaus. This Xixia army was resting carelessly for a night and was about to set off. It also sent scouts to Huachi Town to inquire, but the scouts had not come back yet, and there was nothing left. The cavalry of the Fourth Battalion rushed over, but they didn't notice it.
Li Sangou took the cavalry of the fourth battalion and killed him.
Instruction Ye had already received the order from Wang Ju and led his subordinates to kill him from Zewei Village.
Three thousand soldiers and horses are actually used properly and their strength is also considerable. However, in this case, how can they be used properly and how can they organize counterattacks?
In an instant, three thousand Xixia people were defeated.
Li Sangou brought the cavalry of the Fourth Battalion back to Liyuan Fortress, and the rest was handed over to Instructor Ye and the villagers from Pingrong Town, which were strong and powerful.
When Ye was instructing him to leave, he followed Wang Ju's arrangements, brought a lot of caltrops, and collected a large number of animal traps or other equipment from each village, and secretly scattered them in advance on various mountain roads behind Pingrong Town to Jintang City.
So these Xixia people were constantly attacked by the Song army.
The battle started in the morning and then pursued it until dusk, and it stopped until it reached the borders of Xixia.
Three thousand Xixia people rushed over, and only more than a thousand people were left to escape from the sky, and the rest were either killed or captured.
But this battle is not important, the next battle is a real battle...
…………
The news was still spreading, and Cai Ting did not write a report. He was persuaded repeatedly by Wang Ju and finally decided on the battle. Once the battle started, the victory or defeat was nothing. So he simply did not write it and wrote it all after the war. It was either a memorial request or a memorial request.
Now that he writes, it’s better to think about what to do.
Don’t underestimate Cai Ting. He did not go to the front line in this battle. But he also made great contributions to the dispatch behind the scenes. However, there were really no civil servants who were carrying a big sword and carrying a bow on the front line. Zhang Qixian was also a bold man, and he could not be regarded as a civil servant of the Song Dynasty in the traditional sense.
Li Fei'er in Huachi Town returned to the city. Unlike the harsh environment in which Wang Ju and his brother and sister lived, she is the only daughter of the Li family and grew up in a greenhouse since she was a child. Although her fiancé won a great victory, she was very happy, but it was the first time she saw so many dead people.
This made her have nightmares for several nights in a row.
Fortunately, she reacted and immediately called Wang Xiaomazi and asked him to ride a horse to Yanzhou to report the news. Two hundred miles away, for ordinary farmers in this era, it was undoubtedly two worlds, but for the Li family, this distance would not cause any problems.
I believe my family is also worried, so I will repay my peace first. But Li Fei'er doesn't know. The upcoming battle will be truly dangerous and intense.
Wang Xiaomazi was riding a horse, and the road was now built. It has not played the role of Wang Juxiang, but the transportation has become convenient and is not a road, but it is much easier to walk than before. Wang Xiaomazi rode a horse and ran to Yanzhou City after two hours.
After entering the Li family, I reported to Jiexun.
Mr. Li asked in surprise: "How many officers and soldiers are there in Huachi County?"
"More than five thousand?"
"How many enemy soldiers have come?"
"Twenty-three thousand."
"How to defeat?"
Wang Xiaomazi said it briefly, but he didn't know much about the specifics. Now he is not very effective in the Wang family, far less than Quan Er's eldest son and Lu Ping. This is helpless, he is young.
"Use water attack?" Li Yuanwai suddenly realized that there are not too many examples of fire attacks and water attacks in ancient and modern times. It turns out that Li Yuanwai doesn't understand it either. Is it easy to attack this water attack? All kinds of arrangements are not counted, and Wang Ju also has to make psychological guesses about Ye Fengma, Li Liangzuo and Song Ji. However, it doesn't matter whether Li Yuanwai understands it or not, and he doesn't want to go to the battlefield to fight.
"How many evils did this kid commit? I have to go to incense for the officials," said Qin. In fact, it is also fun. What kind of evils does not kill? The more you kill, the better, so that the officials can be promoted faster.
Mr. Li was also very proud and said, "Welcome to Mr. Zhu, Mr. Zhao, and others come here to visit."
That is, the few businessmen he had made friends with, and some of the major contracts in the bamboo paper workshop. Now they are almost in a group, but the core figure is still Wang Ju, not only Wang Ju's skills and brain, but now Wang Ju's credit position is also the official position.
After a while, several businessmen arrived and sang praises after hearing this. Of course, they were very happy. Wang Ju made great contributions and was promoted quickly, and they would also benefit from it.
Zhu Huan quipped: "Mr. Li, you said that he was in a bad mood when he was born."
"Zhu Junwai, I was wrong at the beginning, not bad. Think about it, the door is sealed with heavy snow, and everything is slaughtering. This is the murderous aura. Who is the enemy of our Song Dynasty?"
"Old man," Zhu Huan laughed and scolded. This old guy is too shameless, but who said that he doesn't have a suitable daughter? Otherwise, he would be more glorious now.
The Li family's family was even more happy. It was not only the relationship between the wife, but also the hatefulness of the Xixia people.
The Song Dynasty gave so much money, so let's make up, just like the Liao Kingdom? But no, the silver was collected and continued to cross the border and burn, kill and loot. Some people couldn't understand why such a big country in the Song Dynasty was made like this by the big Xixia? Even if they used people to pile up the country, they would have flattened it.
Is this a metaphor? Zhao Xu really sent hundreds of thousands of troops to pile up, but what was the final result?
The neighbors also knew about it after a while, and they all thought Wang Ju was a god. Of course, Lu Shen also knew about it.
Why did he promise Cai Ting that he would send reinforcements at that time, and Wang Ju would bring reinforcements again, but he would not send any troops? Huanqing Road was not enough, how many troops did Fuyan Road have? There were dozens of battalions, is it enough to put in front of the 100,000 Xixia army?
Therefore, just like Wang Juyuan's idea, he had to keep this force just in case.
How can you not send scouts to pay attention to this kind of worry?
Actually, we should not send scouts. Huachi water was blocked by a large number of corpses, but the corpses in front were drifting very quickly, and some had already floated to Zhiluo County. The officials of Zhiluo County had to send someone to salvage them. There was no time to continue floating downwards, and at the same time they also sent people to report.
"How did this kid fight?" Lu Feng couldn't figure it out. He wouldn't use water like Mr. Li, who drowned tens of thousands of soldiers and horses like that. That's that simple.
Zhong Yan heard the same thing soon.
He was so angry that he said half a day later: "The second brother has made great contributions this time."
His second child is a medical treatment, and he is ranked fifth at home.
However, he asked to go to Huachi County not for the sake of the second brothers. Although he went to battle with his own brothers and father and son soldiers, they were all worthy of generals, and there was no such statement. Besides, one was Huachi County and the other was Dashun City, and two battlefields.
The main thing is to make meritorious contributions.
Being a civil servant does not necessarily require military achievements, but being a military general does not have the function of fighting?
In fact, Zhong Yan made Lu Shi's pitfall really make many achievements, not only the battles that took place in Huachi County, but also the upcoming battles. It was even more than he imagined. Once this killer god arrives in Huachi, Wang Ju will use it in a different way. How much credit will he make will he make? In short, after this incident, Zhong Yan began to feel dissatisfied with Lu Shi.
