Chapter 61 Attacking the Enemy Camp from All Sides
First update today!!!
The night in the north is accompanied by desolation, the grassy garden by the side, the moonlight is vast, the cold wind is whistling, and the sound of silence is heard.
After everything is arranged, it is time to wait for the action time to come.
After grasping some of the enemy's situation, according to Zhengyao's deployment, General Luo Dutong led a group of troops to conduct a sneak attack from the north of the enemy camp, and then Vice General Chen led a group of troops to conduct a sneak attack from the south. This way, the Mongolian soldiers were attacked from both sides.
.After attracting the attention of the Mongolian soldiers, Ma Dutong went east to conduct a sneak attack.
This will inevitably cause a high degree of panic among the Mongolian soldiers. At that time, Zhengyao will personally lead a group of troops to the south to the Mongolian soldiers' granary. The purpose of this action is to burn the enemy's granary!
Of course, it sounds like this plan to attack the east and west is very good. Once successful, the Mongolian soldiers will not retreat due to lack of food and grass, and will not rush to attack the city. This will give the Ming army an opportunity to relax. Explain the two
If you mobilize men and horses for a pincer attack, the Mongolian soldiers will definitely be defeated because they are attacked from the front and back.
It's just that this is just a theory. Whether it can be completed or completed well depends on the specific situation. Things on the battlefield are changing rapidly, and if you are not careful, you will be wrong by a hair.
Time passed bit by bit, and the waning moon hung high in the sky, glowing with white light and falling on the ground, creating a cold feeling.
The night before a war is always so quiet and peaceful, but no one can calm down, and no one can feel calm. Because everyone knows that the upcoming war is very likely to be separated by heaven and man.
This may be my last battle.[
Regardless of whether you are a hero or a soldier, once you go to the battlefield, the outcome is already determined. All you can do is wait for the tragic scene to come.
As soon as the time came, Zheng Yao immediately led four teams of people to head towards Datong Mansion. There were not many people, only about 400 people. They ran all the way. In about an hour, they appeared less than thirty miles outside Datong Mansion.
on top of the hills.
Looking down, the lights in Datong Mansion are brightly lit, and the city gate guards all have solemn expressions, staring intently at the bottom of the city tower, always paying attention to the movements of the Mongolian soldiers. And on the empty plain more than 20 miles away from the north gate of Datong Mansion, in the moonlight
Below, you can suddenly see a dense forest of yurts, intertwined with each other, like a white maze.
What is certain is that the white yurt is the Mongolian military camp. Looking at its formation, there are at least 50,000 people there.
After some snooping, Zhengyao immediately ordered: "Luo Dutong, you can lead a team of 100 swordsmen and axemen to sneak attack on the back of the yurt. You must act quickly and attract attention. Once discovered, immediately go north.
Evacuate!"
"Got the order!"
After Luo Dutong said in response, he immediately led a team of one hundred people on the hillside and quietly went to the back of the yurt.
"Vice General Chen! In a quarter of an hour, you will lead a group of 100 spearmen to the front of the enemy camp for a frontal attack. However, you can only attack from a distance and cannot defeat the enemy. Once you succeed, immediately go to the direction of Datong Prefecture.
, if you don’t encounter reinforcements, don’t fight forcefully!”
"Got the order!"
He responded with the same crisp voice. Vice General Chen immediately went down to make preparations!
Zhengyao nodded with satisfaction, and immediately said to Ma Dutong beside him: "Ma Dutong, in half an hour, you will lead a hundred musketeers to ambush in the woods to the east of the yurt. If something strange appears in the yurt,
Immediately use muskets for long-range attacks!"
"Got the order!"
In the army, the classification of arms is naturally very complete. Axemen, archers, spearmen, infantry, cavalry, and musketeers are divided into different categories, each with its own strengths.
Musketeers have the most powerful firepower among all arms, but they have a drawback, that is, they cannot attack at close range, and they are suitable for use in relatively hidden places, similar to archers.
The pikemen are suitable for frontal attacks. They are equipped with spears and usually a large shield. They are listed at the front of the array to block the enemy's impact and kill them with their spears.[
Sword and Axe: A sword in one hand and a shield in the other, capable of both offense and defense, suitable for close combat.
Judging from the surrounding terrain, there are mountains and forests to the east as a barrier, which is best for ambushes and sneak attacks; to the south is the enemy's front camp. If you want to attack frontally, you must use an array. Even if it is a sneak attack, you still need pikemen.
; The north is relatively open, connected to the Mongolian plains, and is suitable for close combat.
As for the remaining troops led by Zheng Yao, all of them will be the elite among the elite. Not only are they good at martial arts and in good health, but they also have strong combat capabilities and adaptability. If you want to penetrate deep into the enemy camp, these people are naturally indispensable.
After assigning the tasks, Zhengyao quietly retreated, leading an elite team of more than a hundred people to the west of the yurt in silence.
Within a quarter of an hour, Zheng Yao led a team of troops to the hill on the west side of the Mongolian military camp stationed thirty miles outside Datong Prefecture. From a high position, he began to overlook everything going on in the yurt.
At this moment, suddenly lights suddenly burst out from behind the north side of the yurt. Soon, the crowd was commotion and the noise gradually spread.
I saw the yurt began to flow with people, and the originally silent military camp suddenly became boiling. Shouts and roars immediately sounded, making the entire mountain tremble.
The battle was about to break out. Under the leadership of Luo Dutong, the Ming Dynasty army of more than 100 people launched a discussion battle in the north of the Mongolian army camp. The sounds of fighting, shouting, and the clash of weapons continued to sound, and the battle became more intense.
As the number of Mongolian soldiers increased, Luo Dutong estimated that time was almost up, so he followed the original plan and decided to evacuate instead of fighting.
Under Luo Dutong's loud shout, the partially injured Axeman immediately began to retreat. The Mongolian soldiers obviously would not let the Ming army escape easily, so a large group of Mongolian soldiers immediately chased them away.
Count, at least there are thousands of people.
He raised fire to the sky and shouted all the way, like hungry wolves, chasing Luo Dutong's group of men and horses straight to the north.
However, when the Mongolian soldiers chased Luo Dutong's men to the north, causing some chaos in the military camp, the hundred-man spear team led by Vice General Chen appeared in front of the yurt at the right time. With an order, everything was in order.
They rushed straight into the Mongolian military camp in an orderly manner.
The Mongol army in chaos was really at a loss when faced with the Ming army attacking from the front. Fortunately, Alar and Simon, the great master of the country, Amoni, had seen big scenes, although they themselves did not have any great abilities.
, finally managed to stabilize the morale of the army, and then eliminated a large group of troops to lay siege to Vice General Chen's troops.
Soon, a fierce fighting broke out in front of the military camp. As a result, there was a battlefield in front and behind the entire yurt, which physically dispersed the power of the Mongolian soldiers. It actually made Alar feel a little uncomfortable.
.
It was Xu hour at this time, and most of the soldiers had just entered a state of rest. When they were suddenly attacked by enemy soldiers, they felt a little bit unhappy and depressed from the bottom of their hearts, so they seemed energetic when they started fighting.
However, before there was any sign that Vice General Chen's team could evacuate again, the sound of muskets suddenly rang out in the woods to the east, and the crackling sound continued. Then one after another Mongolian soldiers arrived inexplicably, scaring many Mongolian soldiers into chaos.
Running around, even Alar and Armoni couldn't help but tremble in fear.
"What sound?"
Alar, who was hiding in the military tent, poked his head out from under the table for a while, and then said with a surprised look on his face.
Compared to seven years ago, Alar's beard is thicker and slender, and he looks more dignified. It seems that he has become very comfortable and comfortable after sweating all these years.
At this time, Armoni on the side immediately said: "Okay... it seems like the sound of a musket."
"What? Musket!"
Alar couldn't help but be shocked again when he heard this, and his face and eyes couldn't help but reveal a look of horror.
Although the Mongols are a nation on horseback and are very brave and good at fighting on the battlefield, after all, due to limited conditions and underdeveloped economy, their combat weapons are still very primitive swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks, and for more advanced muskets
There are no such things as cannons.
However, I suddenly heard that the Ming Dynasty actually brought musketeers to fight, which will undoubtedly make the Mongolian side very afraid.
They all say that if they have never eaten pork, they have always seen pigs running away. Similarly, although they have never used muskets, they have seen the power of muskets and artillery, which are definitely the most threatening existence. Ordinary swords, guns and shields are in front of muskets.
, is simply vulnerable. With a musket, one is worth ten.
But Alar also knows that muskets are still rare in the territory of the Ming Dynasty. As far as he knows, there are only two or three teams with muskets, and one is owned by the Qi family army who fought against the Japanese in the coastal area.
, one is the Shenji Battalion in the capital, which is responsible for the security of the capital. However, during Yan Song's rebellion, the Shenji Battalion has been controlled by Yan Song.
As for the last one, Alar is unknown. But now it seems that it followed the army to the front line. This suspicion makes Alar even more nervous about this matter.
"That's right, Khan! It's a musket. But it sounds like the musket team is not large in number, and this sneak attack is a bit strange. It seems that we should make corresponding preparations."
Amoni nodded, but at this moment, his whole person seemed calm.
Alar frowned and said, "What are the suggestions from the Imperial Master?"
Faced with this situation, Alar was already a little at a loss. Now he had to rely on Armoni who started the war for everything.
Armoni said calmly: "Great Khan, I guess there must be some conspiracy here. I think..."
As he said this, Amoni subconsciously whispered into Alar's ear. Perhaps only the two of them could hear it in a low voice.
Chapter completed!
