Su Shi promised to give food as long as he goes to war, and if he can perform meritorious service, he will give more food, so what do you have to worry about? At worst, he will lose his life, but at the expense of himself, his family can get more food. No matter how you look at it,
is appropriate.
The Xixia cavalry are very powerful, but they are only one against three or four. When one is against seven or eight, they will eventually be pulled off their horses by the Xinzhou soldiers, and they will inevitably end up being beaten to death by a group of people.
Xinzhou's soldiers were very fierce and many died, but no one was timid in fighting. Compared to ordinary troops, they seemed to be more military-like in their fighting spirit.
Halfway up the mountain, Su Shi borrowed a far-infrared telescope and took in everything. While he was shocked, an idea suddenly came to his mind. Since these people fought so bravely, why couldn't they be put to good use?
The most indispensable thing in his hands is food, and this is what the people in the north need.
Doesn't it mean that if you have food, you can have more people serving you, and then you can form more armies?
Of course, Su Shihui has paid a lot of faith points for this, but by the same token, when he helps more people, more people will believe in him. It won't be long before the faith points will not only come back, but also become bigger.
Make money.
At this moment, Su Shi had an idea in his mind. But at the foot of the mountain, the fighting continued.
Xinzhou soldiers were fighting for their lives, and it often took three or four people to die in exchange for the life of a Xixia cavalryman.
Even so, no one will take a step back. On the contrary, they will rise more and more.
If you rush up, you will be rewarded.
There are rewards for killing people.
Even if you die in battle, you will still be rewarded.
Where can I find such a good thing?
Thinking about those real soldiers of the Song Dynasty, they only received monthly salary, which was pitiful. They did not necessarily receive extra rewards for winning the battle. In comparison, their treatment was much better than those of those people.
Everyone wanted to seize such a good opportunity and risked their lives. Half of the thousand Xixia cavalry were quickly wiped out.
Compared with the Xinzhou soldiers who relied on human sea tactics to exchange lives for lives, a large group led by Feng Yidao killed the enemy much more happily.
They are the most well-equipped, the most well-trained, and the most powerful. When there are more of them than the thousand Xixia cavalry on the opposite side, when they charge, it is completely devastating. One thousand Xixia cavalry is even a stick of incense.
They didn't even last long enough and were killed by a large group of soldiers.
Facing such a fierce group, the Xixia cavalry were so frightened that some of them finally began to flee under the cover of night.
Feng Yidao did not take these people seriously and handed them over to the last 10,000 reserve imperial troops. He thought that using these 10,000 people to hunt down hundreds of Xixia deserters would not cause any problems. If this was a trivial matter, they would
If all else fails, then just go home and wash up and sleep.
"Continue to charge." There was a lot of blood on Feng Yidao's black clothes. It was not his own, but the blood of the Xixia cavalry who died in his hands.
Once again, he waved the golden dragon sword and continued to charge forward with a large team.
Facing a large and brave group, the Xixia cavalry of less than five hundred were frightened, and the Xinzhou soldiers surrounding them were also frightened.
The former is afraid of death, and the latter is afraid that someone will take away their credit.
For this reason, many Xinzhou soldiers
He also deliberately blocked the road to prevent Feng Yidao from passing by with his army.
Regarding this, Feng Yidao was a little bit dumbfounded, "Brothers, get out of the way. There are many enemies and we can't kill them all. Don't just think about the immediate benefits and keep yourself useful. You will fight in big battles in the future.
You can take whatever food is available."
After some dissuasion, the Xinzhou soldiers reluctantly opened a path and allowed Feng Yidao to lead a large group into the battlefield, killing one of the remaining less than 500 Xixia cavalry.
Su Shi, who was halfway up the mountain, looked at this scene with emotion.
This battle allowed him to see the role of food and the power of the people.
In other words, Su Shi has always underestimated the strong appeal of food to ordinary people.
In the last life, Su Shi had no shortage of food and clothing, and all he thought about was how to eat better and wear better clothes.
The food you eat must be nutritious and the clothes you wear must be brand-name. Who knows the importance of food?
In this life, Su Shi's background was pretty good. At least he had parents who loved him and he never suffered much.
Later, with the system in his body, Su Shi didn't even know what it felt like to be short of food. He only knew that when he was hungry, all kinds of delicious food would be placed in front of him with just a thought.
It was only after the battle in front of him that he realized that the people were so eager for food, and there was a lot to be done about it.
While I was still thinking about this, Ji Zhu's voice finally came from the intercom. "Young Marshal, we have arrived at the designated position and cut off the retreat of the Xixia cavalry."
"Okay, hold on, reinforcements will be rushing towards you soon. If they don't appear in time,
If the Xixia cavalry attacks too hard, consider opening an opening to let them pass."
After Su Shi thought for a moment, he did not give Ji Zhu an order to fight to the death.
"Young Marshal, we can hold off all the Xixia cavalry." Ji Zhu's voice came out from the other end of the intercom.
"No, remember, this is not the last battle, this is just the beginning. For these Xixia cavalry, it is not worth paying a high price. What I want is to gain the greatest victory at the smallest cost, do you understand?"
Su Shi's voice suddenly became stern, and Ji Zhu's voice immediately sounded over there, "I understand, please don't worry, Dragon Warrior, the Wolf Warriors and the Leopard Team will take action under the camera."
Ji Zhu put away the walkie-talkie and put it into the satchel on his horse. Hu Tongtian, who was standing beside him, came over and asked, "General, what did the young marshal say?"
"If you can block it, block it. If you can't block it, focus on destroying the enemy's effective force. Don't do it forcefully." Ji Zhu opened his mouth and repeated Su Shi's request.
"What? We worked so hard to get here, how could we let the enemy escape again?" Hu Tongtian obviously didn't understand.
"Don't ask me why, this is the young commander's order, and no one can disobey it. Anyone who comes, please pass on the military order immediately and convey it to the ears of every soldier." Ji Zhu said in an uncompromising tone.
...
Liang De took advantage of the night to escape, and would look back from time to time.
When he saw that there were no pursuers behind him, he breathed a sigh of relief, followed by a look of decadence on his face.
I suffered a huge loss in this battle.
After traveling thousands of miles, not only did they not succeed in the sneak attack, but they also lost troops and generals.
Not only Gu Le but also five thousand pioneers.
It was gone, and in order to survive, two thousand cavalry were left behind.
In addition to the loss of more than a thousand cavalry during the previous attack on the mountain, he brought 20,000 cavalry when he came, and now he only has more than 11,000 cavalry with him.
Nearly half of the army was lost like this, but nothing was caught. If it were anyone else, it would probably not be a good mood.
"Hmph! Su Shi, my general will take your life sooner or later." With this thought in his mind, Liang De's face looked better.
But at this moment, there was a sudden commotion in front, and then the army stopped advancing. Liang De's face suddenly became ugly again, "What's going on? Why don't you leave?"
"Report." A young general from the front ran back, came to Liang De and said: "General, there are Song troops blocking the road ahead, and we can't get through."
"Song Army? How could there be a Song Army here?" Liang De was stunned for a moment, then said in disbelief.
"It's the Song Army. There are a lot of them. Judging from the number of torches, there may be more than tens of thousands." The young general continued with some fright.
The so-called tens of thousands is because Ji Zhu played a trick and planted countless torches in various places to make it appear that there were many people and horses. However, in fact, the black cavalry plus the second brigade only amounted to more than 2,000 people.
"General, how about we fight back?" Another Xixia general spoke from the side.
"Fart." Liang De said angrily. "If we go back now, don't we wait to be attacked by the Song Army from both sides? Once it gets daybreak, we won't be able to escape even if we want to. Okay, let's take advantage of the Song Army
Before the attack comes from behind, let's rush forward and rush out."
Although I know that there will be losses if I push forward, I still
When it came to choosing the lesser of two evils, Liang De had no better choice at this time.
Liang De gave an order, and the Xixia cavalry charged forward.
In order to survive, everyone used their special skills and worked very bravely.
On both sides of the mountain road on the opposite side, Ji Zhu and Hu Tongtian led all the black cavalry and prepared for the attack with eight consecutive rounds.
"General, do you think the Xixia cavalry will retreat?" Hu Tongtian asked whimsically.
"How is it possible that if it were you, knowing that there were pursuers behind you, you would fight back?" Ji Zhu looked at Hu Tongtian with a look that looked like an idiot.
"Uh... that's right." Hehe smiled, and then Hu Tong said, "Everyone is ready. The Xixia cavalry will come in a while. Shoot them to death. Even if the enemy passes us, that's fine."
We need to peel off two layers of his skin first."
Not long after Ji Zhu and others were ready, the Xixia cavalry from the opposite side launched a fierce charge.
One by one, the horses' legs were turned to the maximum, and they galloped forward, shaking the earth and the mountains.
"Fire the arrow."
Seeing that the Xixia cavalry were within shooting range, Ji Zhu shouted rudely, followed by thousands of arrows.
The number of people was not 10,000, but only more than 2,000. But the eight-shot firing speed was too fast, and it was easy to give people the feeling that ten thousand people were firing arrows together.
In addition, there were so many torches standing there. The Xixia cavalry had no time to observe so many people when they were just running away. Seeing so many arrows coming, they could only bite the bullet and charge.
If you are good at horsemanship, you can hide your body directly under the horse, so that you can effectively avoid being hurt by arrows.
There are also some people who are very lucky
Unfortunately, the war horse was shot and fell to the ground. As the owner of the war horse, he also fell to the ground. It was normal for him to even be thrown to death directly.
