Chapter 194 Flag
Yang Gousheng is different from Yang Wazi. Yang Wazi's father does not know whether he is alive or dead, but his mother-in-law is still there. But Yang Gou's parents died, and they died in front of his eyes. If Yang Wazi's mother from Tongli had not taken him with her when she went to Taiping Road in Mount Tai, Yang Gou would not be able to live like this.
Gou Sheng walked for a while, thought for a while, and said to Yang Wazi in front:
"My dear, you'd better not come with me anymore. You and your mother-in-law are different."
Hearing this, Yang Wazi became anxious and said:
"Gousheng, what are you talking about? I won't be a deserter. What else is yours and mine? My mother is your mother."
Yang Gousheng burst into tears. He did not speak, but nodded vigorously.
Zhang Da's song stopped at a place relatively west of the battlefield. Therefore, Sun Tou led the food delivery team with these children and arrived within a short time.
When they entered the car camp, they met a fat military man wearing armor, who looked like a general. Sun Tou was very familiar with this general and immediately said to him:
"General Zhang Shi, the food for your Qu tribe has been delivered. If there is meat, eat it while it's hot. We'll kill more Han bandits later."
The general named Zhang laughed loudly when he heard this:
"Don't worry, Sun Tou. I regard those Han dogs across the way as..., what are they called?"
Or the corps commander next to him reminded:
"Chicken and dog."
Zhang Shijiang nodded hurriedly and laughed:
"Yes, it's a chicken and a dog."
After finishing speaking, he said to the corps commander on the side:
"Zhang Tou has told me that after this battle is over, he will promote me into the collision team. When the time comes, my position as general will be vacant and I will leave it to you. You do your best."
After hearing this, the corps commander's eyes narrowed, but maybe his eyes were small to begin with.
While Zhang Shijiang asked his men and these children to get food, he called Yang Wazi out alone, then took him to a military tent and told Yang Wazi:
"I know you will definitely have something to give to Zhangtou when you come, so you should be smarter."
Yang Wazi nodded vigorously and then entered the account.
When Yang Wazi came in, Zhang Da was giving orders to several generals in the military tent, arranging the order for the afternoon attack. Wazi came in and stood for a while. Zhang Da almost finished speaking and asked the generals to go down.
When the generals saw Yang Wazi delivering food, they understood and winked at Zhang Da. It wasn't until Zhang Da cursed that they left the tent with a smile.
Zhang Da called Yang Wazi, with a dark ugly face and a shy smile:
"Did she ask you to deliver food?"
Of course Zhang Wazi knew that she was Wang Xiaoniang, nodded, took out the still warm millet balls from his pocket, and handed it to Zhang Da.
Zhang Da giggled while eating and asked:
"How is Miss Wang doing in Laoying?"
Yang Wazi didn't know how to describe it, so he just said:
“Pretty good.”
"Okay, that's fine."
After being in a daze for a while, Zhang Da was ready to let Yang Wazi go back. There would be a big battle later, and it would be dangerous for them to stay here.
But Yang Wazi didn't move for a long time. Zhang Da was still surprised, so Yang Wazi said:
"General, I want to join the army and kill bandits. My brother Yang Gousheng also wants to join the army. We must kill Han bandits."
Zhang Da smiled:
"It's good to join the army, but you can't do it now. When you become a soldier, you can join our army."
Seeing Zhang Da's refusal, Yang Wazi became anxious. He pulled Zhang Da's sleeve:
"General, I'm a grown-up, look at my stature."
Yang Wazi wanted to say more, and then Zhang Da asked Zhang Shijiang outside the tent to send him out.
In the end, Yang Wazi and Yang Gousheng were discouraged and followed the food delivery team back to their old camp. The two of them remained silent all the way, obviously their enthusiasm for joining the army was dampened.
Not long after sending off the meal soldiers, suddenly loud gongs and drums began to be heard from the direction of the Chinese army. Then the seven divisions of the Taishan Army scattered on the west bank of Wenshui River began to beat the gongs and drums.
Obviously, the Taishan Army is going to war.
When Sun Tou heard this voice, he panicked and hurriedly asked the food delivery team to follow up. They wanted to rush back to the old camp. Although this place was already at the rear of the battlefield, what if enemy soldiers infiltrated from the front? He is responsible for these children. But when Sun Tou rushed on his way, he didn't see that there were two missing people in his team. Yang Gou Sheng and Yang Wazi were gone.
——
Zhang Da, the general of the Taishan Army in the Forbidden Department, also heard the gongs and drums of the Chinese army. He immediately ordered his two hundred armored soldiers to form a formation, ready to attack the Han army's position at any time.
Zhang Da ate his favorite millet balls in three licks, and then went out of his tent to direct the battle. At this time, a horse came from behind at the forbidden headquarters.
Zhang Da took a look and saw that it was Yu Jin, Yu Jin's adopted son last year. He had been raising him to practice martial arts for more than a year. This young man already had a bit of a heroic spirit and he would serve as Yu Jin's messenger.
Yu Jin came galloping with Fei Shu. After seeing Zhang Da, he dismounted in advance and raised Fei Shu to Zhang Da:
"General Zuoqu, my army reports."
Zhang Da took the letter from Yu and saw the military order. Yu Ban ordered him to move the Zuoqu soldiers a hundred steps forward, ready to be the first to attack the Han soldiers on the opposite side of Dongping Road at any time.
Zhang Da was overjoyed to be appointed as the leader. After this battle, he could also serve as a subordinate and move to the left. When the time comes, he will bring Wang Xiaoniang from the old camp to celebrate together. Then it will be really beautiful.
Zhang Da didn't know how dangerous he was now. These words he said made him feel full of flags.
After Zhang Da received the military order, he took his Douchi with him and ordered his two hundred soldiers to form a vertical formation of twenty rows.
The advantage of the vertical formation is that when charging, the contact area with the enemy is relatively narrow, so the arrow rain will be relatively small. Before contacting the enemy, Zhang Dabu will change the formation, from vertical to horizontal formation, expanding the enemy contact area, and directly Attack the enemy along the entire front.
When charging, the elite of Taishan soldiers can be seen.
After receiving Zhang Da's military order, the generals at the head of each platoon tied up their coats and raised their flag guns and began to count the soldiers in their platoon. After counting the number of troops, Zhang Da's troops began to line up and march out with just the sound of the horn.
As soon as they came out of the formation, it suddenly became clear that the body of Shouzhang Bing, who originally died in front of the Dongping National Formation, had been dragged to the ground by their friendly forces.
Therefore, the soldiers in the front row of Zhang Da's troops who were out in the battle could directly see the horizon, with mountains to the left and rivers to the right, and a strong formation on the opposite side, lined with swords and spears.
The soldiers in the front row knew that the opponent was not a weak soldier when they saw the posture on the other side, but they also felt in their hearts that it was like that. Who can be the leader of a formation, who is not a bold warrior? Are you still afraid of this little battle?
Zhang Da's troops were not the first Taishan troops to go out. On his right, Xi Shen's troops, composed of Chun Shan Lao children, had already rushed up to Mount Gao with five hundred soldiers from the Lushan camp.
Gaoshan is not high, but it is the only commanding height in this fast battlefield situation. Xi Shen's mission is to capture this high point for the entire army and convey military information to the entire army at any time.
Different from what many people think, only in the era of hot weapons, the competition for commanding heights will be fought for. Ancient wars also attach great importance to the competition for high points. The reason is that on the one hand, it can form a charging formation from top to bottom, and on the other hand, it can obtain a higher battlefield field of vision. The enemy's military formation dispatch information can be obtained at any time.
Xi Shen captured Gaoshan Mountain without much effort. It turned out that the Dongping soldiers had received military orders from the Prime Minister, and the entire army went down the mountain and formed a formation in the wilderness at the mountain pass to snipe the enemy.
It can also be seen from this that celebrities like Li Zan, no matter how courageous they are in their duties, are not good at using troops. But this is inevitable. They have read a few military books, but how many opportunities do these celebrities in Neijun have to be exposed to real war? So it's mostly just talk on paper.
In fact, from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period, the entire art of war actually bottomed out. Before the great chaos at the end of the Han Dynasty, Neijun generally was not very good at martial arts and had a rough understanding of war. However, one good thing is that the scholars and Qianshou in this period generally had a better foundation, because they usually had a peaceful growth period and had a good foundation. A stable space for practicing martial arts and studying literature. Even the martial arts skills of Guizhou leaders are somewhat different, because the military system of the Han Empire still maintains its inertia, allowing the lower-level Guizhou leaders to have the opportunity to practice martial arts.
But after the chaos in the world, this process was interrupted. At this time, there was too much killing, and there was no stable environment for practicing martial arts. Since then, the intensity of the war has become higher and higher with the proficiency of the respective generals. In the early stage, there are often three enemies, but in the later stage, it is only one soldier. This is the growth that war brings to everyone, even though this growth is so cruel.
Li Zan, the Prime Minister of Dongping, lost Gaoshan due to lack of experience, but he was a first-rate wise man. When Gaoshan was under the banner of the Yellow Turban Thief, he immediately realized that he had just made a scheduling problem, so he ordered Gao Ya to lead His steps were taken to recapture Gaoshan.
Elegant and brave, good at riding and shooting, and good at martial arts, he is a first-class hero in Yanzhou. He once committed a murder and was exiled. He was protected by Li Zan and received great kindness from him. Therefore, after Li Zan summoned him, Gao Ya immediately brought three hundred soldiers in scarlet coats to help.
Gao Ya's three hundred crimson hakama soldiers also have a background. They hold long spears and carry large arrows. They wear crimson hakama and have green hair wrapped around their heads. Although they have no armor, they walk in the mountains as if they were on the ground.
Therefore, Li Zan chose Gao Ya as his general and asked him to lead three hundred crimson hakama soldiers to attack the mountain, which was considered a good use of his people.
After Gao Ya received the military order, he shouted loudly and rushed up to Mount Gao with three hundred crimson hakama soldiers. Xi Shen's five hundred Lushan soldiers were also good at mountains, so the two generals caught each other and fought on Gao Mountain.
Zhang Da's armored soldiers who had already moved forward here were walking slowly. Every ten steps they took, they would stop to form a line, and then continue walking. They were moving in a strict military formation from beginning to end.
When they moved to 100 steps, which was less than 200 steps away from the front line of the Han soldiers, the armor soldiers at the front had stopped, and then each platoon of Zhang Da's department stopped in turn to repair. These armor soldiers in the middle had no vision and could see all actions. The command of his own front row and the leader of the rightmost row.
The leaders of the platoon followed the instructions of Zhang Da in the far right corner of the formation. At this moment, Zhang Da also frequently looked behind the formation, staring closely at Yu Jin's headquarters behind, looking at its flag.
Time is stretched here, and the soldiers of both the enemy and our armies feel that their days are like years. And the battlefield was so quiet, a kind of quiet that only existed before the war.
Suddenly, a soaring mountain tsunami came from Gao Mountain. Zhang Dazheng was wondering, and then he saw a large banner with the word "Guan" on the horizon in the distance, swaying behind the Dongping soldiers on the opposite side.
It turned out that Guan Yu's Zuo Xiaowei troops went around behind the Han soldiers
Look, this is the art of war. Zhang Chong once again divided his forces to attack, lowering the dimensions to attack old man Li Zan.
