Chapter 79 Breaking out of camp
Five hundred vs one thousand, seemingly a huge difference in strength, but the chance of winning is extremely small?
In fact, it is not the case.
In a war, you can’t just look at the number of people.
The two hundred cavalry of the rioters pose a greater threat to pure infantry. If they encounter elite cavalry, they are no different from cattle.
According to the old servants of the investigation, many of these thieves didn't even dare to let go of the horses, not to mention letting go of the dead ropes. It was obvious that they had only learned to ride horses for a few days.
It was just because Li Chengzhi was in trouble that they pretended to be out of control and did not dare to fight, otherwise they would definitely be able to get rid of the battle by just one rushing to the peak.
As for the six or seven hundred spearmen, the situation is similar to the thief cavalry: it only takes half a month to replace the hoe with a spear, and every day it is just robbed. How much combat power can it have?
Li Chengzhi's five hundred soldiers need armor, bows, rides, and rides, cars, and shields. After practicing formations for almost a month, he would not dare to fight even a thousand refugees. How could he talk about protecting his family and security?
Disband and run away as soon as possible...
So Li Chengzhi was a little confused. Li Bai was so experienced that he was defeated by such a mob, and more than half of his casualties were killed or killed?
...
It was almost dark, and the fire was shining in the backyard of the main hall, and the sound of ironclads kept ringing.
This is a blacksmith making a horizontal knife overnight.
Only 1,200 kilograms of steel plates were left, and 500 knives were not enough to make them. Li Chengzhi asked to remove nearly 100 helmets.
Fortunately, the steel plate is ready-made and the process is not very complicated. I was afraid that it would be too late, Li Chengzhi only asked the man No. 50 or 60 to beat the knife, and then sent it to the foot of the mountain after the punching, and arranged someone to break it.
The scabbard must be too late to make, so I can only make do with linen.
The two hundred armors were all sent, just enough for two hundred Li soldiers to wear them.
The remaining soldiers were still wearing wooden armor, including the horses of one hundred cavalry. Li Chengzhi also asked the villagers to use extra wooden armor to sew one hundred horse armors urgently.
It is definitely not as good as iron armor, but it is better than wearing nothing.
In addition, Li Chengzhi brought another 100 Song family townsmen with wooden armor to fight, leaving the remaining 200 people to Guo Shouzheng to guard the mountain and serve as a logistics team...
The battle is imminent, and the adrenaline rush is coming again.
Li Chengzhi suppressed the excitement in his heart, carried several made grenades and two packs of gunpowder on the horse's back, then stepped onto another horse and went down the mountain with explosives.
The lion and the rabbit also use all their strength!
Unfortunately, it was too hasty and had no time to make grenades, so it could only be used to blow up the city wall and set fire.
Rockets made of pine glue and gunpowder should not burn too much...
At the fifth o'clock in the morning, with the sound of a drum, the silent military camp suddenly became noise.
A man and a woman pushed the meal prepared overnight into the barracks, and the soldiers could eat hot soup and millet cakes without even leaving the door.
Two moments later, another drum sound was heard, and no matter whether they had finished eating or not, they threw them down the bowl and went out to the camp to get on the bus.
The distance is not long, and there are fewer troops, so there is less baggage. It is almost a day and a night, and it is all ready.
Once the soldiers get on the car, the team can drive.
Two more moments later, the drum sounded again and officially pulled out the camp.
There is no military service, and no farewell.
Fearing that he caused chaos, Li Chengzhi ordered villagers not to leave the village, and those who violated their heads were beheaded.
If you are timid in your hometown, the soldiers will be less energetic. No matter how stupid the generals are, they will not dare to let the soldiers and their family and their mother-in-law before going to war.
So, TV is full of lies...
The one who leads the way is the pond cavalry, and the next is the convoy of infantry and baggage. The cavalry guards them on the left and right sides. When they arrive at a narrow road, they will follow the team.
Li Chengzhi and Li Shi also followed the cavalry.
Li Shiben suggested that he wear Li Shixian's full armor, but Li Chengzhi was unwilling to do so.
What a joke, it’s golden, just like a living target.
When the battle is really at war, all the leaders and generals of each tribe recognize only the coach's flag. As long as the coach's flag does not fall, it means that the coach is safe and sound, and it has nothing to do with whether he is wearing golden armor or not.
Furthermore, the newly cast cloth armor is no less powerful than the fish scale armor except for the lack of grey armor and the armor skirt.
But just in case, Li Chengzhi brought them all with him.
Maybe when it comes to a critical moment, he, the coach, has to fight hard...
Shortly after leaving the camp, the sky gradually brightened, and Li Shi asked the convoy to speed up.
Li Chengzhi estimated that the troops would arrive in Chaona within three hours at most...
...
Chaona County Government!
The lights in the yamen were on all night, and from time to time, county soldiers and yamen officials would come in and out, and from time to time they would carry out a body.
This was carried out from the county prison in the southwest of the yamen. They were all soldiers who fought fiercely with Li Bai and were seriously injured...
Nearly a hundred soldiers were locked in more than ten prison cells, most of whom were wounded and stained with blood.
Those with more serious injuries will be carried to the yamen for centralized treatment.
Li Bai is among them.
At this time, he was placed flat on a few tables, with a quilt covered under him, which had been stained with blood.
There were more than ten parts of the body, and they were all like children's mouths that had eaten raw meat, which was particularly terrifying. Especially the left arm, which was shoulder-length and broken, was exposed with uneven bone stubble, and even bone marrow could be seen.
A medical officer was changing the medicine for Li Bai, and there were two officials wearing dark black clothes standing next to him.
After seeing the medical officer change the medicine and preparing to reband, the county magistrate Jiang Rang asked sadly: "How is the injury?"
The medical officer stopped the movements in his hand, pondered for a moment before clasping his fists: "Prince Bing has lost too much blood and the heat has not subsided. I am afraid that it will not last for three days..."
I just knew...
Jiang Rang cursed inwardly, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and he stared at the side face of the county magistrate So Siwen indignantly: "This person is the commander of a brigade... The county magistrate, this grudge is so big!"
Su Siwen's face turned cold: "I should deal with it all because of public intention, and it is also for the tens of thousands of people in this city. What's wrong with making enemies with the Li family?"
Jiang Rang sneered secretly.
Still public?
Do you really think others can't guess what your abacus is in your mind?
I thought the Li family had already been defeated, and now the Li family in Jingzhou has no official position and cannot do anything to you, so I am so confident, right?
They really don’t have an official position, but they have soldiers in their hands...
You didn't even see what the cavalry that circumvented the city during the day were like?
Even if I didn't see it, I should always think about how Li Bai repelled nearly a thousand chaotic thieves last night with these hundreds of soldiers?
These are all fierce soldiers... And there is a whole brigade on Kongtong Mountain, and it has been less than a month since it was formed... It is conceivable how powerful the Li family man is?
How could such a person be fooled by your high-sounding words of righteousness?
What's more, how many conspiracies have you played from the front to the back, but why can't you confront each other?
I really annoyed that killing a county magistrate like you is just a single knife...
It's so stupid!
