Now, Guo Dajing, who had already blended into the crowd of barbers, was observing the opportunity and looking for an opportunity to deal an unexpected blow to Jianlu.
Kill Shuo Tuo?! This is Guo Dajing's goal, but it's not the only one. Do it if you have the chance, and do something else if you don't.
It’s not like Guo Dajing never thought of repeating his old trick and sniping Shuo Tuo on the path of Jianlu’s march.
Although there is still a chance, Jianlu is not a fool, and the vigilance will definitely be strengthened, which will bring great risks to the sniper attack.
Therefore, the best chance is to get close to Shuo Tuo, and dressing up as a shaver is a good choice.
The cart pressed against the snow, making a creaking sound. Suddenly, the wheels sank into a snow nest. Several men with shaved heads pushed hard, and the cart rocked back and forth, but it finally failed to push out.
Guo Dajing glanced at Jianlu, who was supervising on horseback, and his face became gloomy. He quickly took a few steps from behind and stuffed the wood supporting the carriage under the wheels.
A man who shaved his head shouted a slogan, Guo Dajing pressed the wood with his shoulder, and several people worked hard together to finally push the car out.
"Thank you!" The shaved man shouted and waved to Guo Dajing.
Guo Dajing smiled innocently, picked up a stone from the roadside, and put it into the snow nest. Now, the car behind him could not get into it.
Jianlu's gloomy face softened slightly, and his hand holding the riding crop relaxed.
Guo Dajing walked back to the trolley and pushed it forward with several barbers. His face was dull, as if nothing had happened.
"They should be thanked for saving them from being whipped." An Kecheng said in a low voice: "Remember that person, his name is Pu Zhong."
Guo Dajing nodded, but didn't care. Even if Pu Zhong resented Jianlu, it would be useless to fight for him.
There are also different levels of barbers. The lower-level ones are those who are forced to work as civil servants and coolies. The higher-level ones are those who are attached to the Jianru. Like the Mongols, they are equipped with weapons and serve as soldiers.
Although they are the lowest level of coolies, they are exactly what Guo Dajing wants. Those high-level ones who usually yell around are treated well. But when fighting, they don't have to rush to the front. How are they different from cannon fodder?
Guo Dajing would rather put in more effort than help Jianlu fight in the war, risking being killed or wounded by his own people!
Of course, if you work as a coolie, it will be difficult to get close to the Jianlu brigade, especially Shuo Tuo. But Guo Dajing is not in a hurry. He is observing the Jianlu marching, camping, eating and drinking, and looking for loopholes.
Boom! There was another explosion ahead, followed by a burst of noise, some shouting, some shouting to kill.
The team stopped, and Guo Dajing sat on the side of the cart with his hands expressionless, looking similar to several men with shaved heads.
Since leaving Longchuan, there have been three or four such attacks. Although they were back on the road quickly, Guo Dajing was very pleased.
The constant harassment, although the results were not great, slowed down Jianlu's progress and increased the psychological pressure on Jianlu.
They are invincible in cavalry and shooting, and come and go like the wind. Jianlu's mobility is one of its main advantages. If it can be restricted, it will be very beneficial in future battles.
Obviously, the Dongjiang Army has already taken action. Although it has not been dispatched in large numbers, it is still effective and wise to use harassment to tire out the Jianlu.
The Jianlu only occupied large cities and important towns on the communication line to attack the DPRK. As long as the Dongjiang Army and the Korean volunteers became more active and disrupted their communications and transportation, it might not be impossible.
If you are ruthless enough, you lay mines outside the city, and multiple squads take turns harassing them, even going out of the city to collect firewood, then you will have trouble sleeping and eating!
Boom, boom! After two explosions in succession, there was no movement for a long time. It must be that the attacking team ran away after the fight.
Sure enough, time was running out and the team started moving forward again.
In a place where the road was narrow, Guo Dajing saw the upturned soil on the side of the road and a crater about a foot deep that had been blasted. There were a lot of gravel scattered around the crater, and there were mottled blood stains.
Well, the level of mine laying has improved. They are stepped on the road, exploded on the roadside, and are filled with gravel to increase the lethality.
Guo Dajing was very pleased. From the looks of it, at least one Jianlu was injured. Even one or two, if used on a large scale for a long time, the cumulative results would be astonishing.
Here he is relieved and secretly happy, while Shuo Tuo is depressed and annoyed.
A roadside gravel mine killed one person and injured four people and five horses. One of them was unlucky and was hit in the temple by a sharp stone.
"There are no boulders?" Shuo Tuo looked at Nima Chan and asked in a deep voice: "It's been two or three times. It seems that there are quite a lot of tricks."
Nima Chan's face was also ugly. According to his experience, he learned a bloody lesson under Longgu Mountain City. However, he still knew too little.
Although Shuo Tuo did not mean to blame, Nimachan still felt that he was partly responsible for the deaths and injuries caused.
"My humble position underestimates the enemy's ruthlessness and cunning." Nima Chan bowed his head, "You shouldn't be too confident..."
Shuo Tuo waved his hand and said: "I don't mean to blame you. The enemy is indeed very cunning, and his combat style has also changed. We must all learn lessons."
After a pause, he made a decision and said, "Let the shaver go ahead!"
Nima Chan understood what Shuo Tuo meant, bowed and said: "Yes, I will give the order now."
The easiest way to think of is to use cannon fodder to attack mines, or to use civilians first. For the cruel and tyrannical Jianlu, this is not surprising at all.
The team changed, and the high-level barbers walked in front with guns and knives. This was also their "welfare".
Fortunately, there are not many landmines, only one or two occasionally.
Obviously, the Dongjiang Army's raiding team was also observing the enemy's movements, implementing Guo Dajing's mantra, if you don't see the enemy... well, if you don't see the enemy, you won't be killed.
The mines only occasionally sounded one or two, and the number of casualties among the barbers was not great. But the purpose of the harassment was achieved, slowing down the progress of the Jianlu.
Time is very precious for the Dongjiang Army and the Korean volunteers. The Jianlu wanted to make a quick decision and withdraw from Korea when the spring warms and the ice melts.
If it weren't for Amin's self-reliance and the opinions of Du Du, Yue Tuo, Li Yongfang and others, he would have accepted North Korea's conditions and withdrawn his troops to Liaodong.
Huang Taiji did not hold out such hope of forcing North Korea to surrender completely. Otherwise, he would not have sent only Amin's blue-encrusted flag as the main force, plus tens of thousands of soldiers with shaved heads.
No matter how good or bad the fight is, the only ones who lose are the men and horses with the blue flag. If the strength is weak, where will Amin find the confidence to shout domineeringly?
As for North Korea, as long as it agrees not to help the Dongjiang Army and agrees to trade with Houjin, the purpose of this war will be achieved.
That's right, Jianlu's attack on North Korea only required this. Don't look at it as a bluff, the attack was fierce, but it lacked lasting endurance.
