Chapter 93: The Sword Covering the Great Wind Song in Lingbei (1)
In the northeast direction of the Halakhorin River, that is, between the Halakhorin River and the Tamir River, which became wider and then renamed the Orhan River, and another tributary, the Tuwuci River, this area
The vast and fertile grassland is the main pasture of the Klei tribe, where most of the tribes graze and live.
"Gao Shixuan, you lead the left army of 5,000 people, along the Orhan River; Wang Shunchen, you lead the right army of 5,000 people, along the Tewuci River. March on the left and right to sweep away the Kelie tribe. Yang Weizhong, you lead the 5,000 people
, outflank them and block their way to the north. Zhe Yanzhi, you lead a thousand cavalry, cruise on the left; Yang Zongmin, you lead a thousand cavalry, cruise on the right, kill and intercept the tribesmen on both sides who are crossing the river to escape...
The rest of the divisions will protect the headquarters..."
After everything was arranged, Zhao Si said in a deep voice: "Gentlemen, this is the first battle of our Great Song Dynasty's Suzaku Army in Mobei. Please fight bravely to kill the enemy! Show your power to Lingbei!"
"Here!"
Two quarters of an hour later, all the troops arrived at their designated starting positions. Zhao Si said to the guards: "Send the order, sound the horn, and the whole army attacks!"
Dozens of horn horns were blown, and the long sound of the horns was like a strong wind, carrying endless murderous intent and power, sweeping across the grassland.
The vertical flag "It's as fast as the wind" was held high by Gao Shixuan's troops. The five thousand cavalry were divided into fifty hundred-man teams, like a fire dragon, galloping forward; the vertical flag "It's as fast as the fire" was held high by Wang Shunchen's troops.
Raised high, the five thousand cavalrymen surged forward like a red flood.
From these two teams, a team of 100 people was separated from time to time and headed towards the Keledebu pasture in the middle. Gradually, a dense red net was woven into it, wrapping the Keledebu headquarters in it.
The territory here is vast, and there is enough buffer time for the Klei tribe to organize a resistance force.
I saw dozens of people, or two or three hundred people gathered together, waving sabers, bows and arrows, and driving their mounts to bravely charge towards the Suzaku Army.
The two sides soon collided with each other, causing an extremely fierce bloodbath - fighting, screams, death and injuries.
The Suzaku Army reacted quickly. As soon as the leading centurion was blocked, the rear troops immediately divided into two wings according to ten-man teams and launched an attack on the resisting Klei tribe.
They whizzed past from both sides, first firing with bows and arrows, disrupting the formation of the Klei troops. Then they observed where the Klei troops were most flustered or where they suffered the heaviest casualties during the two-wing attack.
The two wings that turned back would rush in without hesitation, brandishing their sabers and raising their spears.
If there are hundreds of Klei troops resisting, several nearby Suzaku Army centurions will rush over immediately to assist in the siege.
First, run and shoot, and then observe whether the enemy team is in disarray, or is very weak due to casualties? If not, then temporarily buffer the enemy after turning around, and then shoot again in the opposite direction.
If we observe again at this time, we will most likely find a gap, and then we will attack in large numbers.
This set of tactics has been one of the daily training subjects of the Suzaku Army in the past two years.
They either pretended to be enemy troops and galloped back and forth across various terrains for drills; or in the crisp autumn weather, they used wolves, rabbits and other wild animals as imaginary enemies, and while eradicating sheep enemies, they also practiced related tactics.
Under such high-intensity training, the Suzaku Army has almost engraved these tactics in their bones. The enemies or situations they encounter are different, but the fundamental goal of killing and injuring the enemy and then defeating the enemy remains the same.
All sergeants (non-commissioned officers), armor commanders, centurions and thousands commanders will react subconsciously or know how to change the situation of the battle.
The Krei tribe is different.
These herdsmen who dare to resist are very brave, but no matter how brave they are, they are just a piece of sand.
Most of their leaders, big and small, as well as brave and experienced warriors and veterans, went to Machu Hunhai to support their new Khan Hu'er Zahusi.
Their resistance was entirely based on courage and instinct. But no one organized them, united them, and cooperated with each other.
They are like isolated islands or rocks, surrounded by an endless sea of fire, and then submerged and devoured one by one.
In the distance, Changsun Moli, Tan Shiji, Yu Wenxuzhong, Li Gang, Zhao Ding, Ye Xun, Zhang Yi, Li Guang and others standing on horseback behind Zhao Si could see tens of thousands of cavalry rushing, crashing and fighting on the grassland.
Fallen horses, casualties, appear all the time.
The sound of horses neighing, screaming, and the sound of horse hooves mixed together, covering up the sound of the water flowing in the Orhan River and the Twuci River, and even covering up the whistling sound of the strong wind blowing through the Yanran Mountain.
Watching this scene makes people's blood boil.
Changsun Moli and Tan Shiji were as silent as water; Yu Wenxu pulled the reins, his finger joints turned white; Li Gang looked very excited, and his sunburned face turned red; Zhao Ding looked very calm on the surface, but the muscles on his face twitched from time to time.
, has betrayed his heart.
Ye Xun stared at every detail on the battlefield, his eyes almost bulging out; Zhang Yi was shaking with excitement; Li Guang was swaying back and forth, as if he was about to fall off his horse the next moment.
Zhao Si turned around and looked around, and everyone's expressions were reflected in his heart.
These are all talented people. As expected, I will put them to great use in the future. I just want to take advantage of this opportunity to drag them to the grassland and let them understand some of the scriptures of sages in this cruel Mobei.
The truth that cannot be read.
The effect is not bad.
The fighting is still going on. The main ranch of the Kled tribe has a radius of hundreds of miles, there are thousands of tents, and the tribe has 20,000 to 30,000 people. Even if you push and pull and gallop all the way, it will take some time to get around this place.
.
"Report! Your Majesty, Hu Luxiong has come to report that he has annihilated the Kile tribe's royal tent on the banks of the Hara and Lin River, and the gains are still being calculated. Mogus's wife Herrick and her youngest son raised their flags and surrendered."
"Tell Hu Luxiong to continue the campaign and wait for new orders."
"Here!"
The fighting continued until dusk, when the fighting on the grassland slowly subsided. The most courageous Kle tribesmen who dared to resist were all dead. The rest were those who were willing to accept their fate.
The Suzaku Army was cleaning up the grassland back and forth.
The wounded were treated, and the surrendered herdsmen, under the command of the cavalry, packed up their belongings, gathered cattle and sheep, and comforted the horses that had lost their owners.
Some herdsmen helped set up pots, lit fires, and cooked food.
The corpses were loaded onto horse-drawn carriages and transported to a certain location, where they were piled on firewood and burned.
In front of the soaring fire, more than a dozen monks accompanying the army, with solemn expressions, chanted the "Rebirth Mantra" in unison. The herdsmen who gathered around and watched all this looked at the fire with complicated expressions. There may be some of them in the fire.
Relatives.
There were also many people who were inspired by the monk's compassionate chanting and knelt on the ground, imitating the example, clasping their palms together and praying devoutly.
Zhao Si turned to Changsun Moli and said: "Inform the garrison of the camp and immediately send out 10,000 people to appease the surrendered Kelie tribe. Inform Hu Luxiong, Gao Shixuan and Wang Shunchen to replace the wounded and replenish soldiers, armor, bows and arrows.
, seize the time to rest. Eat at the third watch, and take advantage of the beautiful moonlight to attack the Shihe and Yedier River areas in the west. Before sunset the day after tomorrow, the pasture stations of the Albati and Tubewuti tribes must be destroyed.
I scanned it!"
"Here!"
