Chapter 179 I have made up my mind
Sima Yue's finger accidentally poked "Feixiang". In fact, the first battle on the Western Front happened to start in Feixiang.
The scouts are always the first to fight, followed by the rangers.
The function of the latter is to hunt and expel the opponent's scouts, compress their scope of activities, make them deaf or blind, and increase one's own initiative.
In the wars of the Han Dynasty, it was difficult to completely cover the battlefield. Because the number of rangers on both sides is not too large, and the area is very vast, there will always be scouts who slip through and ask them to send back the news.
But if the prairie cavalry goes south to the Central Plains, things will be more troublesome.
The overwhelming number of their rangers can indeed greatly reduce the Central Plains army's ability to obtain battlefield information, thus falling into passivity.
But today's collision is still a fight between traditional Central Plains armies. Ji Sang was born in a pastoral garden and has many horse bandits, herdsmen and ranch soldiers who know how to fight on horseback.
In the fields, the sound of arrows piercing the air was endless, and from time to time there was the sound of weapons clashing.
Li Le led five hundred riders up a gentle slope, overlooking the entire battlefield.
Only half of the millet in the fields has been harvested.
Because of the war, the people fled one after another, either into the countryside or hiding in Wubao, leaving the ripe millet in the ground, trying to wait until the fighting was over before harvesting it.
"Tell the men to stay tight and don't frighten the enemy so they don't dare to come." Li Le pointed his horsewhip and ordered.
The generals laughed, and soon someone sent the order.
After receiving the order, the "Rebel" cavalry slowed down their movements one after another and drove the officers and soldiers westward.
The scouts had good riding skills. They had three horses per person and fled very fast. They disappeared into the distance in just a moment.
“Let’s go!” Li Le pinched the horse’s belly and descended the gentle slope.
Hundreds of riders followed behind, with rumble of hooves and high spirits.
Along the way, we saw many rebel troops marching westward.
It is still the same old rule, drive the weak soldiers forward who are not very capable of fighting, consume the opponent's physical strength, energy and even arrows first, then line up the elite soldiers behind, and enter the battle at the critical moment to make the final decision.
To increase their chances of winning, they even enlisted Latin soldiers along the way.
While resting his horse on the way, Li Le even saw dozens of riders stopping more than a hundred villagers who had no time to retreat to Wubao.
Li Le laughed loudly and said: "You are stupid to give up your life rather than your wealth!"
As he spoke, more rebels rushed up and dragged away the women in the village. , and started doing it on the spot.
One man wanted to resist, so he raised his hand and stabbed his head, causing his head to fall down.
A child held on to his mother and refused to let go. Someone lifted her up high with a grin and dropped her to the ground.
The laughter became more and more enthusiastic.
Li Le looked interesting and walked over directly. Looking at the men with red eyes, he said: "My wife and daughter were played with by others. Are you heartbroken? Haha, let's go and play with others." Wife and daughter, earn it back!"
"The general is kind-hearted, please don't be disrespectful to praise me," the soldier shouted from behind Li Le.
"That bitch of yours has no good-looking part about her. She just throws it away after playing with it. What a pity? Come on, come with us to get the official girl, that delicate and tender meat, so enjoyable."
"Many of our rebels came here like this. Women, where are they?"
The soldiers talked to each other, laughed and laughed without any taboos.
Rogue bandits, they have basically followed this routine from ancient times to the present. Otherwise, where would their people come from?
When the victim becomes the perpetrator, he loses his humanity and turns into a beast driven by desire. This army becomes an army of beasts, leaving no grass in its path and extremely destructive.
The real rogues with their wives and children have become a major force in the climate. If they have the confidence to compete with the officers and soldiers, it is no longer easy to encircle and suppress them.
Li Le looked at the women a few times, but none of them were pretty. He immediately lost interest. It happened that the horse had almost rested, so he continued westward without stopping.
******
Shao Xun, who was on the march, quickly received the news.
He immediately sent a messenger to the Chinese army to send a message to Liu Yu and urge the main army to come quickly.
Secondly, he summoned the generals to plan the next action - he said it was "planning", but in fact he acted arbitrarily.
"In ancient times, we have never heard of anyone who avoided fighting and preserved his strength to achieve success." Shao Xun directly set the tone and said: "I want to meet the thieves and test their strength. You can think about how to organize the troops." Just set up the formation."
After saying that, he glanced at Li Chong, Gao Yi, Huang Biao, Zhang Gu, Yu An and others of the Yamen Army, as well as Jin San of the Silver Spear Army. , Wang Queer, Lu Heigou and other student soldiers and officers. "Lang Jun, I think it's better to camp here and wait." Huang Biao was the first to say: "The scouts reported that the number of thieves is only ten or twenty thousand, and our army also has tens of thousands. If the thieves' army arrives, or they attack my camp, then they will There is a chance. If the rebels are not fooled, they can send two or three thousand strong men as vanguards to lure them forward. "
Huang Biao's idea is really bad.
Can Master Ding Zhuang fight? Of course not.
In terms of combat effectiveness, it may not be as good as the cannon fodder soldiers of the Jisang bandits. Once they go into battle, they will definitely be defeated without any suspense.
Of course Huang Biao knows this.
In fact, he used these Sizhou Dingzhuang as bait to make the rebels despise them and fall for the attack. Then he waited for work, defended and counterattacked, and won in one fell swoop.
"General." Li Chong cupped his hands and said: "Jisang thieves and bandits, if we dare not confront such thieves, how can we call ourselves the Forbidden Army? Our morale is terrible. The drum should not be vented, and the servant suggested sending more scouts and cavalry to investigate the enemy's situation, observe the terrain, choose a favorable position, and set up a decisive battle with the thieves. "
Li Chong was born in the Luoyang Central Army. He had a sense of arrogance, and looked down upon the thieves who were causing trouble in Hebei. He directly suggested that they should attack the enemy and defeat them in one fell swoop.
Shao Xun smiled after hearing this.
Huang Biao was a little embarrassed, Shao Xun patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.
The two of them have different personalities, different origins, and different experiences. Naturally, they come up with different ideas, which is normal.
"Master Shao, I think we should advance quickly and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop." The third person to speak was Wang Que'er. At the age of eighteen, he already had some composure. He pointed at The Silver Spear Army who was marching not far away said: "The Silver Spear Army has been in the camp for several years and has been practicing hard and has quite a system. What is missing now is the tempering of blood and fire. If even the Jisang thieves dare not Fight, do you have to retreat when you encounter someone more powerful than Ji Sang? Master Shao, give the order to defeat the thieves and save the people from the fire."
Jin San looked at Wang stupidly. A bird's eye view.
He also agreed to take the initiative to meet the enemy. The reason is that I am powerful and fearless of heaven and earth. The thieves will come and kill one one, two will kill a pair, just do it and see who is more powerful.
But one of the reasons given by Wang Queer was "to save the people from fire and water". Is this because I am stupid because of reading?
Well, fortunately, I stopped reading because I couldn’t read it. I’m not as pedantic as him.
"Master Shao, let's fight." The sixteen-year-old Jin San usually eats well, but he is already tall and thick, and he is even more fierce and rough. He doesn't know what it means to be afraid.
Shao Xun glanced at Jin San and smiled again.
This student is very strange. Among the 150 people in the first phase of Donghai, he was the fastest growing physically, so Shao Xun once told Wu Qian to let him eat and drink well as a gift to Jin San.
But when Jin San’s body grew, for some reason, it actually grew horizontally.
The physique is stout and stocky, with broad joints and extremely strong strength. The only shortcoming is that he is a little shorter in height, but he may still develop a second time to see if he can grow taller.
"Zhang Gu, tell me." Shao Xun looked at the protagonist who broke off the engagement again with encouraging eyes.
"General." Zhang Gu said: "When a servant slaughters an animal, he always ties it up first, making it unable to resist, and then stabs it into the heart with a knife. Regarding the Jisang thieves, I think Huang Banzhu's The policy is quite appropriate."
"Yu An." Shao Xun ordered another person.
"I listen to the general." Yu An responded.
Shao Xun then named a few more people, and everyone gave their opinions based on their own ideas.
After Shao Xun listened to everything, he was noncommittal.
Everyone held their breath and waited quietly.
"I once heard a saying, hit with one punch to avoid hundreds of punches." Shao Xun said: "Many people are staring at our group now. They think they have more soldiers, more money, more food, and more resourcefulness. We should be driven to work hard for them, and the credit should go to them. After all, they were the first to make decisions. I worked for everyone in Liangxian and Guangchengze. Few people know about it now, but more and more people will know about it in the future. The more wolves we have, the more we will be surrounded by. If we show any signs of fatigue, we may be eaten by others.”
“I am the vanguard now, and it is impossible to retreat. Retreat. In this case, it is better to go to Jisang and practice your skills. If you face the Huns in the future, you will still be able to fight."
"I have made up my mind! Army, advance quickly and fight the enemy decisively."
Shao Xun drew his saber, glanced at the crowd, and said, "If there is anyone who refuses to advance, he will be killed immediately."
"Nuo. ." The generals responded with a bang.
After the order was issued, all ministries immediately started taking action.
Shao Xun also called in auxiliary officers and ordered them to select elite troops and place them on the outside of the convoy to protect the baggage troops and prevent the enemy from succeeding in a sneak attack - Shao Xun did not expect them to be of any help. Just add to the chaos.
In this battle, we still have to rely on our own people.
