Chapter 298 The Shock of the Scout Captain
The captured Lu Xiangsheng scout was also watching this scene. At this time, a scout stared at the scout captain with wide eyes and said, "Team, captain, their arrows can shoot 100 meters!"

The captain of the scout also widened his eyes, which also shocked him. As the captain of the scout, he is a good archer. He can be selected as the captain of the scout because of his horse skills. He is the best-paid unit in the scout army, and only those with the most outstanding personal ability in the army can be elected.

They are the eyes and ears of the army. They must be the most elite. They can be compared to the scouts we know in later generations, which is where the king of the army is.

Therefore, the scout captain's archery is one of the best in the entire Tianxiong army, but today two unknown cavalrymen in the Lantian army shocked him. At this time, the scout captain swallowed, 100 meters, this is not a problem with archery , This is a problem with bows and arrows. These two cavalry must be holding precious bows.

Bao Bow, the scout captain has seen it, it is a ranger general he once followed. The bow was a treasure given to them by the emperor.

It is said that the best beef tendon was used to make this bow, and the strings of the bow were treated with secret methods. It is said that the cost of the whole bow is more than a thousand taels. With that bow, he has seen the ranger general shoot an arrow [-] meters, hit the target Bullseye, it's a pity that the general lost his life in the last battle with the Tartars in Liaodong.

But now seeing the Lantian cavalry shooting the enemy from a hundred meters away, the scout captain thought that the bow and arrow held by these two people might be a precious bow, thinking that the scout captain couldn't help sighing that these cavalry were really rich.

It was so shocking that two of these precious bows appeared at once, but before he finished his shock, he saw someone not far away shouting: "I'm stupid, look quickly, look quickly."

The scout captain listened, and saw two cavalrymen chasing up to a Manchu cavalry in the distance. The cavalry did not dare to fight with the Lantian cavalry, so turned around and ran away, but at this moment, the Lantian cavalry opened their bows a hundred meters away. An arrow shot the cavalryman off his horse. Seeing this scene, the scout captain's eyes almost popped out.

"Again, there are two precious bows!!"

The scout leader said, but the next moment he saw two cavalrymen chasing and killing a Manchurian cavalry not far away, and they shot their bows at a hundred meters. At this time, the scout leader's mouth trembled: "Six, six."

six?

No, no, this is just an appetizer. Followed by the scout captain, he discovered that it was not six but sixteen, no, it was 26, no, it was 56, it was 160...

Finally, the scout captain said weakly: "This precious bow is actually a standard weapon, everyone has one!"

Thinking of this, the scout captain said: "Are these people heavenly soldiers and generals?"

Hearing the scout captain's emotion, one of the scouts said at this time: "It's about the same. Anyway, I think they kill Tartars like killing dogs. With this level of combat power, they are not far away even if they are not heavenly soldiers and generals."

The scout captain said: "Since the enemy chieftain Nurhachi raised his troops, we Han people have been hunted down by the Manchurian Tartars. When will a Han family man be able to kill the Tartars so heartily? Even if they want to kill me today, I will accept it." Yes, to see such a battle in my lifetime, I am happy, happy."

After hearing this, a scout said: "Captain, will they kill us?"

The captain of the scout said: "What do you think? Such a powerful army, people in the world don't even know that it was smashed by us today, can we still live?"

After hearing this, the scout said: "If you see it, you will see it. Even if we report this matter back, it is a good thing for our son of the Han family to kill the Tartars, and it will be praised by the world."

Hearing this, the captain of the scout glanced at the scout and said: "You are talking about the common people, what if the suspicious majesty in the capital knows about it?"

"Captain be careful."

After hearing this, someone reminded him, and the captain of the scout said: "It's just our old brother, and in this situation, what's the matter with His Majesty?"

The scouts were silent when they heard the words. Even the scouts on the front line of Chongzhen knew about Chongzhen's jealousy, suspicion, and inconsistency. A large part of the military spirit.

Everyone understands the meaning of the scout captain, Chongzhen is suspicious, if this troop is known to Chongzhen, it may become Chongzhen's confidant and enemy.

If not, Chongzhen will come to make an exception and settle down first, which will bring disaster to this army, so that he and others will become a threat to this army, so we must get rid of them and then quickly.

How can it be kept.

When everyone heard the words, a scout said: "Boss, I disagree with you a little bit. Such a strong army will be afraid of His Majesty's censure. If not, I will learn from Gao Yingxiang, Li Hongji, Zhang Xianzhong and others, and it will be the opposite. Will be afraid of being seen by us."

After hearing this, the scout captain looked at his scouts and said: "You are right, but if they don't want to rebel, if I were them, rebelling and killing us little people who are insignificant, I will definitely choose to kill us." Little people."

After hearing this, everyone was silent. What the captain said made sense. Compared with exposing themselves and possibly confronting the court, killing a few insignificant pawns, they asked themselves, they couldn't survive.

Thinking of this, the scouts were not in a good mood, but someone said: "Damn it, it was worth it to see such a hearty battle before she died. I wish I could become one of them and slaughter all the Tartars."

The rest of the people also said: "Yes, it is not in vain to kill two Tartars before dying."

Scouting is a high-risk occupation walking on the grasslands, facing the threat of death at all times, almost every time you go on a mission, you have to prepare for the worst. Therefore, a scout in the army is not as afraid of life and death as ordinary people. On the contrary, there is some calmness.

They are used to seeing life and death, and have killed many people. The fight between scouts and enemy rangers can definitely be made into a heroic blockbuster. Sometimes a hundred scouts are scattered, and only one or two may survive in the end, or even the entire army. overwhelmed.

This is normal, so at this time they are already ready to be wiped out by the mysterious army in front of them. They have seen more life and death, so they don't seem so frightened. They feel that they can die in the hands of a group of heroes in the end. My life is worth it.

Thinking of this, they were ready to wait for death, looking around with nostalgia, watching the Tartars being slaughtered happily.

It stands to reason that human nature does not like to see massacres and bloodshed, but these scouts are very happy to see the Tartars being killed. They have performed many tasks. Before joining the Tianxiong Army, they were scouts. Guan, leaving aside the soldiers who died in battle, it is normal for the two armies to fight and die.

But this group of beasts can also kill the Han people. Once they were ordered to investigate a village that was plundered by the Tartars. The village was not big. When they arrived, it was already in ruins.

Some of the men were beheaded, some were hanged, and their limbs were cut off, and their bodies were doused in fire oil and burned alive.

This is a tragedy in the world. There is animal nature in the human body. The Han people rely on the millennium-old Confucianism to balance these animal natures. That is to do whatever they want, and in their eyes, the Han people are their prey.

They don't have to treat their prey in the same way as humans, so they are extremely cruel. Using the word beast to describe it is an insult to beasts.

The battle lasted for an hour, and when the cavalry shot the last Tartar who wanted to escape, it was officially announced that the army of Tartars who had come to Guihua City to receive them was wiped out.

The entire two Jiala, 3000 troops stayed in Guihua City forever.

After the war, there was a piece of scorched earth outside Guihua City, and the grassland in front of him was stained red with blood. Li Chaosheng stood at the top of Guihua City and looked at everything in front of him without saying a word.

Li Chaosheng doesn't like to kill, but at this point he has to kill, because in this cannibal world, if you don't kill, others will kill you, no one can escape, this is the general trend of the world.

"Commander."

Gu Zi looked at Li Chaosheng, and Li Chaosheng said: "You take stock of the results of the battle, and let the army rest by the way. I'm afraid there will be a bigger war waiting for us."

Li Chaosheng is right, there will be a big battle waiting for them. This 3000 Tartar army is only the receiving force of Guihua City. After they accept Guihua City, they will report to Dorgon. Now all The army was annihilated, and Dorgon estimated that he would get news soon. When Manqing realized it, he would definitely counterattack like crazy. This is very normal.

Therefore, this battle was just a test of the water, and in the end Li Chaosheng was quite satisfied. Li Chaosheng turned around and returned to the City Lord's Mansion. He hadn't slept properly for almost a day and a night, and he was very sleepy, but Li Chaosheng didn't sleep. He was waiting for the result of the battle. report.

About half an hour later, Li Chaohu led a brigade commander, Shi Dalei, Luo Heita, and Wang Guixiang walked in.

As soon as they entered the room, everyone saluted Li Chaosheng. Li Chaosheng rubbed his brows, took a sip of tea and said, "How about the casualties of our army?"

Li Chaosheng glanced at Li Chaohu, Li Chaohu said to the first brigade commander: "You report."

"Yes."

The commander of the first brigade of Li Chaohu's army was named Wang Yun. He was originally from the Wang family in Tanggou Town. His original name was Wang Laoer. Later, Li Chaosheng recruited troops. During the platoon, Li Chaosheng organized everyone to study and learn knowledge at night, and the second child Wang was very active.

And he graduated with excellent grades, and was received by Li Chaosheng. At this time, he wanted Li Chaosheng to give him a name, and Li Chaosheng gave him a word cloud.

So he changed his name to Wang Yun, and then entered the army and was transferred to the Li Chaohu Army. He performed well in battles such as the Qingyu Defense Battle, and accumulated credits to become the company commander and battalion commander.

Later, Lantian Academy opened a military academy, and Wang Yun was asked to participate in the study. At that time, Qian Twelve was also asked to participate in the study. However, Wang Yun graduated smoothly, but Qian Twelve was taken back by Li Chaohu because he contradicted the teacher. Beat up.

It can be said that Wang Yun is an excellent and stable person in all aspects, unlike Qian Twelve, who is talented in fighting and likes to play tricks, he is a very real person, so this time, Li Chaohu chose For him, it is mainly prudence. In an annihilation battle like advantage, prudence is more important than gimmicks.

Wang Yun saluted Li Chaosheng and then said: "Report to the commander, this time our troops have dispatched 5000 troops, wiped out more than 69 enemies, and suffered [-] casualties."

Hearing this, Li Chaosheng was taken aback, and looked at Wang Yun. Are the casualties of this siege war so serious?

Wang Yun's heart trembled when he saw Li Chaosheng's eyes, but he still said respectfully: "The Tartars are very powerful in combat, especially good at riding and shooting. Although our army is equipped with muskets and suppressed firepower, we were still beaten by him. Caught off guard."

Li Chaosheng nodded after hearing this, and looked at Luo Heita, Luo Heita said: "Commander, our troops fought with 800 troops, wiped out 800 enemies, and suffered 36 casualties."

Luo Heita said solemnly, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his heart. Li Chaosheng looked at Luo Heita, and Luo Heita looked serious. Li Chaosheng glanced at Luo Heita and said: "Heita, what are you doing?" Well done, tell me about your experience."

Hearing this, Luo Heita immediately stood at attention and said, "Thank you, Commander, for your compliment."

Wang Yun was a little embarrassed at this time. He was also a traveler, and he had two fewer people than himself. In the end, he killed [-] Tartars, and he killed more than a thousand, and more casualties than people. This is not incompetence. ?

Thinking of Wang Yun lowering his head, Li Chaohu's face was dark, Wang Yun was leading a brigade of Li Chaohu's, and it was very embarrassing to be compared to others at this time, Li Chaohu was thinking viciously at this time, he must go back Hit Wang Yun well, how does this bastard fight.

At this time, Li Chaosheng glanced at Li Chaohu, who had a dark face, and said nothing. The army is the same as the economy. It cannot be monopolized. There must be competition. There is an element of arrogance, this is not necessary, and Li Chaolongbu is a virtue.

Because these officers have some relationship with Li Chaosheng, or their seniority, they are a little slack, and Shi Dalei's division is commanded by a general with a foreign surname. Li Chaosheng will use them to force Li Chaohu and others to make progress, so that the army can maintain sufficient momentum. , otherwise one day the army will decay and become less and less useful. This is called taking precautions before they happen.
