Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    One morning, Luo Chong led a small group of less than fifty heavy armored cavalrymen to pass under the Dengzhou City. They came and went like the wind and did not approach the vanguard camp five miles away.

    This is just to reassure Deng Hai and others on the city wall: I have not escaped, I have always been there.

    Sure enough, Deng Hai and Magistrate Chen felt at ease, as if they suddenly had someone to rely on.

    The Zhenxi Pioneer Army did not make any move, and their subordinates came to report: The armored heavy cavalry appeared, numbering less than fifty, and the speed was too fast for our scouting horses to catch up.

    Shi Luoyin sneered in his heart: If we catch up, can we come back?

    Therefore, General Luoyin issued an order: The small number of enemy troops must be a trick to lure the enemy and ignore it. They cannot be led by the nose and continue to send sentries everywhere to search for their real camp.

    At around three o'clock in the afternoon, He Wanli's 40,000 troops and more than 10,000 civilians appeared in a mighty manner. Several camps were set up behind the vanguard camp, forming a plum blossom formation, protecting the central camp in the middle.

    The Chinese Army represents the heart and soul of the army. As long as the Chinese Army is stable, even if the military camp is attacked by enemy cavalry at night, it will not collapse.

    The division commander immediately went to the Chinese army's tent after leaving the seal, came to He Wanli, and reported the news gained in the past two days item by item.  He even told the story about the tragic failure of sending Liao Zhong to attack the Luo family manor, but he didn't talk about the incident when Luo Chong entered the military tent at night to threaten and intimidate him.

    "Liao Zhong is dead?"

    He Wanli asked calmly without changing his expression.

    "It's not certain yet, but no one from the team sent out last night, including the two scouts who led the way, returned."

    Shi Luoyin's expression was normal, and he calmly replied: "I can't arbitrarily mobilize troops to besiege the Luo family manor before the commander-in-chief arrives."

    "now it's right"

    He Wanli nodded happily. There was nothing wrong with exploring the Luo family manor at night. There was nothing wrong with seizing the enemy's generals and their families for coercion. When a situation arose, the way the army stood still and waited for reinforcements was even more calm It can be said that this situation of Shi Luoyin  I can't fault anything in one move.

    He Wanli admired Shi Luo Yin very much, and what he required of him was to master stability. This factor must be neither timid nor reckless. If he could truly master the word stability, he would be nowhere near the level of a general.  Just some credit.

    "The other party has been prepared for a long time. The Luo family manor must be deserted and only a trap is left. There is no point in trying to touch it."

    He Wanli said in a deep voice: "What we want is the victory of the entire battle, not a battle of wills. Losing dozens of men is nothing. Luoyin, you have done a good job. There is no need to blame yourself. If it were me,  , we can do this under the same circumstances.¡±

    "Thank you, Marshal, for your kindness."

    Shi Luoyin half-knelt on the ground, feeling very ashamed in his heart. He wished he could tell all the terrible things about Luo Chong, but he was also worried that his family had not escaped yet, or would fall into the clutches of the devil again, or even, deep in his heart,  There are more fears everywhere.

    What he should do is to regard last night's scene as a dream, how to fight this battle, and how to fight it. He only considers various factors on the battlefield and does not consider what kind of person Luo Chong is.

    Anyway, this is what Luo Chong demands of himself.

    When the division commander stood up and sat down, He Wanli asked again: "Based on your judgment, when do you think the heavy cavalry will appear?"

    ¡°We still don¡¯t have a clear understanding of the strength of that heavy cavalry at the end of the day, so we can only make two guesses.¡±

    Shi Luoyin replied in a deep voice: "Now it is certain that it has a thousand-man scale, one person and two horses, all covered with armor, that is two thousand heavy cavalry. Assuming that he has super confidence in his own combat power, he will  Launch a surprise attack while our army is attacking the city; on the contrary, if he is not confident enough, he will rely on his speed advantage to launch a half-guerrilla and half-surprise attack halfway through our army's capture of Dengzhou City and continue to penetrate deeper into the city.  Our army caused a large number of casualties"

    After listening to his analysis, He Wanli nodded slightly and asked: "Is it really true that the whole body is heavily armored, but it is faster than the light cavalry?"

    "Much faster"

    Only then did Shi Luoyin's expression show a trace of solemnity: "The best detective horses couldn't catch up with them. Only then did I understand why Luktuo's two thousand light cavalry were chased all the way. Almost the entire army was wiped out. They even ran away even if they wanted to.  Can't fall off

    "Well, this is the most terrifying cavalry. It is also the cavalry that we dream of having but cannot create"

    He Wanli never underestimates his opponents, he said in a deep voice: "I'm not afraid of facing their frontal impact, I'm just afraid of the second possibility you mentioned."

    If heavy armored cavalry, which are faster than light cavalry, adopt guerrilla tactics and charge all the way without fighting you head-on, how long can an army of tens of thousands be killed and wounded by them?

    Faced with their guerrilla tactics, our army could only use bows and crossbows to defend against the enemy during the march. However, how could arrows break through their heavy armor????

    The best way to deal with them is to form a formation without moving like a mountain and let them smash into pieces.  But in this way, with only a thousand-man surprise force, it trapped the Zhenxi Army in place, unable to move.

    You must know that the combat purpose of the Zhenxi Army is not to reach a remote city like Dengzhou City, but to continue to penetrate deep and cut off the supply channel of the Song Dynasty's North Front. How can it be trapped here?

    Wolves are terrifying, but this heavy cavalry is obviously not a pack of wolves, but a group of lions. It has a huge body and has dual advantages in strength and speed. It is naturally the most powerful predator in nature.  Just thinking about it makes me feel that it is difficult to deal with.

    "There is always a way."

    After all, He Wanli was a famous general in the world. He did not frown, but said with a relaxed expression: "So far, at least it can be proved that his target is not you, but me. Then, there is no need for a siege battle in Dengzhou City.  You're gone. Luo Yin, you lead the vanguard to continue exploring along our army's march route soon, looking for favorable terrain. At that time, we can set up a series of ambushes to make him suffer a big loss. "

    "Very good."

    Division Luo Yin nodded and responded: "The general also believes that although our army has a numerical advantage, we still have to rely on strategies and take advantage of the terrain to set up traps and lure him into it."

    Having said this, Shi Luoyin felt bitter in his heart: Commander, you still underestimate him. It is very likely that he will not adopt guerrilla tactics at all, nor will he wait until our army continues to penetrate deeper.  I'm worried that he wants to eat you in one bite, right here under Dengzhou City

    But when I think about it, I can¡¯t say these words, and I don¡¯t dare to say them. There are some things that I can¡¯t explain clearly.

    Could it be that: Marshal, I have had personal contact with him, and I know a little about him. He even visited my house This person is too scary, we can't deal with it, so we should withdraw our troops quickly.

    ¡°This is all the truth, but once you are told, you will be charged with colluding with the enemy and disrupting the morale of our military, and you will be dragged out and executed.

    Okay, even if the commander-in-chief is willing to believe in himself unconditionally, will he withdraw his troops?

    With the commander's character and responsibilities, it is absolutely impossible for him to withdraw his troops.

    "Based on mere speculation, retreating without fighting, and gaining a reputation for fearing the enemy, even if His Majesty the Emperor does not convict, the Marshal's reputation will be ruined in one day.

    It is impossible to withdraw the troops, you have to face what you have to face, and you have to do what you have to do, so it is useless to say anything.

    Because of this, Shi Luoyin felt that Luo Chong was too scary. He had calculated everything accurately. The only thing he could do was to stay out of the matter, like a bystander, watching him open his fangs and attack the Zhenxi Army.  Killed here.

    If he succeeds, the only army that can return to Xia Kingdom will be his own vanguard army of more than 4,000 people.  They were not those who escaped, but those who deliberately put them back after they had eaten enough.

    After dark, Shi Luoyin returned to his camp with a heavy heart, feeling that the armor on his body was heavier than a mountain.

    After a night's rest, tomorrow, the vanguard army will leave here, bypass Dengzhou City, and head towards the next city of the Song Dynasty.

    Speaking of which, this task is also very heavy, and there is a possibility of encountering reinforcements from the Song Dynasty coming from other locations, but Shi Luoyin's current mood is that he would rather fight with the five legions of the Song Dynasty at the same time than face that devil again.

    "Commander, take care, Luo Yin, I'm sorry for you"

    Looking up at the moon, two lines of clear tears fell silently from his face.

    At dawn, the vanguard army broke out of camp and set off. Half an hour later, 10,000 Zhenxi troops approached the city and made signs of attacking the city.

    But before that, some people came to the city on horseback and shouted loudly to persuade them to surrender. The meaning was nothing more than: Your defensive strength in Dengzhou City is not even as good as an eggshell, and it will be shattered to pieces with a light knock.  If you don't surrender at this time, your lives will be in danger after the city is breached.

    At this moment, Deng Hai, who was standing on the city, no longer had any fear. As a general, he could only hold on to the end.

    ¡°If you don¡¯t surrender, let¡¯s fight.¡±

    Deng Hai only replied this sentence, praying in his heart: "General Luo, my family, the entire garrison, and even the countless people in the city are all counting on you. When do you plan to show up?"

    "Attack"

    Under the commander's flag, He Wanli, who was sitting firmly on Mount Tai, threw the command arrow.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    Ten thousand people were slowly approaching with siege equipment. Ordinarily, with only the sparse strength on the city wall, a series of blows from trebuchets, crossbows, etc., and a few waves of thousands of arrows, there would be only a few people.  I can still stand up.  With the absolute advantage, the attacking party will not suffer many casualties.

    While attacking the city, He Wanli would of course be on guard against the elusive armored heavy cavalry. With the handsome flag as the center, He Wanli's army formed a huge formation that took care of all sides, and there was a hint of an encirclement.  He Wanli even had the courage to use himself as bait to lead the cavalry into the center of the formation and annihilate it in one fell swoop.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?In addition, he also considered that the heavy cavalry would regard the 10,000 people attacking the city as targets, and He Wanli also responded to this.

    On the city wall, watching the dense siege troops slowly approaching, Deng Hai immediately ordered: Everyone hide from me. There is no need to guard the city wall. Our task is just to save our lives.

    What to guard against? In front of the regular army, the two thousand of us are simply old, weak, sick and disabled. A small number of them will fall down in one wave. Before others can set up a ladder, they will almost die.

    Everybody, go down and hide with your head in your hands. Whether you live or die depends on the character of General Luo.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    The siege troops advanced to 400 meters, but before they reached the best position of the trebuchet, a fast horse galloped from a distance.

    "Report"

    A scout of the Zhenxi Army and a centurion, he rode his horse into the Chinese army's formation and shouted: "To the west, the enemy is attacking."
