Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages

Chapter 314 Attack to encircle and suppress, destroy for the sake of destruction

The cavalry of the Jin people galloped on the grasslands, competed with the Dagan and the Ming Dynasty, and sent troops and horses to follow the Yuan Dynasty to expedition to the Western Regions... All these things depended on their cavalry.

Among them, Qingqi is called abductor horse. They are equipped with bows and knives, but they don't wear armor or only wear leather armor or light armor.

The heavy cavalry is called iron floating map. The cavalry is covered with heavy armor, only the eyes are exposed, and the horses are also covered with iron skirts and armor pieces. They are the main force of the Jin soldiers.

When the two armies confront each other, the three of them form a alliance and use Wei Suo, and then some people follow each other with their horses to show that they will not retreat in a deadly battle.Tie Futu rushed into the formation in the middle, while the kidnappers outflanked the two wings, constantly pulling the enemy's formation with high mobility, annihilating their vital forces, and creating opportunities for Tie Futu...

The combination of the two is difficult to rival.

The only shortcoming is that due to various factors, the number of heavy cavalry iron floats has always been relatively small.

To form such a heavy cavalry, one must first have enough iron armor, and the Kingdom of Jin does not have a well-developed smelting industry, and basically can only obtain such iron armor by means of plundering and trading.

In addition, there must be sergeants who can bear this kind of heavy armor, and the most important horses.

Under all kinds of harsh conditions, the strength of Tiefutu in the Kingdom of Jin is only about one-fourth to one-fifth of that of Kidama.

But Wu Sangui has suffered from them. He knows very well that even if there is a small number of Tie Futu, once they break up the formation, it will be difficult to regain the situation in the future.

"So what if it's an iron floating map?"

Zhao Kuangyi said disdainfully: "The best place for this type of heavy cavalry is in the flat terrain, but Jinlu doesn't know the terrain around here. We can set up traps based on this and trap the enemy deep!"

Qin Hui glanced at him lightly, but did not comment.

After annihilating more than 6000 Jin soldiers that day, Zhao Kuangyi seemed to have become more confident, with the air of ignoring the Jin soldiers.

And it was even more so after receiving an edict from the capital to inquire about the battle situation just now, and the whole person's energy was extraordinary.

Qin Hui didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing, but there was an inexplicable feeling in his heart.

Wu Sangui sighed, and explained: "General Zhao, these few days Jinlu has been killing people and looting everywhere, and his activities in several counties and counties around him must have trampled on the reality of the surrounding area."

"We can't treat them as headless flies, just bumping around."

"so what?"

Zhao Kuangyi was not convinced, and immediately retorted: "They have only been here for a few days? How can the people who were born and raised here know it? How can the court know it?"

Wu Sangui said in his heart that people don't know the terrain, so don't they know, so arrest someone to ask?It is estimated that those who were born and raised in Si you mentioned were either captured by the Jin people or killed...

But for some reason, he didn't continue to refute, but fell into silence.

After all, the current frontier army also needs to make meritorious service. Wu Sangui and the other frontier generals now hope that the court will not pursue their faults and give them the opportunity to continue to make contributions.

Opportunities belong to opportunities, even if there is one, whether you can grasp it or not depends entirely on yourself?
Not to mention anything else, how could he be able to make meritorious deeds if he stayed in this county every day and didn't go out?

Zhao Kuangyi consciously refuted Wu Sangui, the smile on his face became wider, and even his aura became stronger.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Qin Hui frowned imperceptibly.

"General Zhao, marching and fighting is a terrible thing. If you are not careful, you will end up like a gold captive. Are you fully prepared?"

Zhao Kuangyi patted his chest, and just wanted to express his confidence, but when he spoke, his face suddenly changed slightly, and changed to: "Since ancient times, there has been no general who wins forever. If the final general talks too much, he will be arrogant." Word."

"Now the Jinlu is burning, killing, and looting in our Dagan territory. As the general of Dagan, if he has the power to stop it, where is his conscience?"

"The only plan for now is to join forces with Prime Minister Qin to annihilate the enemy as much as possible and protect the family and the country."

Qin Hui was choked by his words for a moment, and then said: "General Zhao's words are true, but according to the facts, we should not be too impulsive. Jinlu has been fooled once, and now he must be very careful, why not find the place first The common people understand what is the appropriate terrain nearby, and then make a decision."

"Moreover, reinforcements will arrive one after another from the imperial court. The current strategy should be to delay, and it is best not to take risks..."

"Qin Xiang can rest assured."

Zhao Kuangyi said with a smile: "Although the Jinlu has a great reputation, its real strength is open to question."

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at Wu Sangui at the side, causing the other side to turn dark.

"Now that I have been guarding the city for many days, they must not have imagined that we will go out to encircle the city. As long as I can't wait for the soldiers and horses outside the city to create the appearance that I am still standing in the city, and then send a small number of elite cavalry to secretly dispatch, I can attack the opponent. One caught off guard!"

Zhao Kuangyi smiled triumphantly: "In this way, no matter how powerful Jinlu's iron pagoda is, how can it be effective?"

Wu Sangui was stunned for a while, and looked at Zhao Kuangyi with surprised eyes.

This was also his idea, he didn't expect to go with Zhao Kuangyi.

Although the Jin people have such a powerful weapon as the iron floating map, neither horses nor soldiers wear iron armor when marching on weekdays.

That thing is really too heavy, if you wear it on a normal trip, no matter if it is a man or a horse, it will not be able to walk a few miles.

Wu Sangui knew that when he was in the northern border, those golden men could use their stamina, but the Mongolian horses that couldn't run fast carried those heavy armors. Wear it on sergeants and war horses.

But at this time, the war horses that make up Tiefutu are not Mongolian horses, but Northeast war horses domesticated from the place where the Jin people started. This kind of horse is not only taller and more durable than the short Mongolian horses, but also has a faster charge speed. Quite a few, the resulting impact is bigger and stronger.

In this way, the prestige of Tie Futu was created.

But now that those golden captives came to Neihuang, it was midsummer, and the weather was extremely hot, so it was even more impossible for them to wander around wearing heavy armor.Even if some people are in the territory of Dagan, they may encounter the enemy at any time, and wearing iron armor in this hot weather, they may suffer from heat stroke soon.

Therefore, as long as they can send out ambushes and rush to the front of the Jinren formation, and don't give them a chance to wear heavy armor, then the prestige of Tie Futu will no longer exist.

Now that there is a solution, Wu Sangui also emphasized the horror of Tiefutu...it is because only by making the enemies stronger and stronger can they justify their failures, and the greater the credit for defeating these enemies in the future .

After listening to Zhao Kuangyi's words, Qin Hui pondered for a moment, but did not directly agree, but turned his gaze to Wu Sangui: "What does President Wu think?"

"Qin Xiang, usually in the northern border, the Iron Buddha of the Jinren does not wear armor for no reason..."

Wu Sangui just told the truth what he knew, neither saying he supported it nor saying he didn't support it. Finally, he added "It's all up to Prime Minister Qin to decide", and threw the question back to Qin Hui.

Although meritorious service is urgently needed, Wu Sangui doesn't want to take any more risks.

The Jin people's scouting horses are not for nothing. If they are detected in advance and their movements are detected in advance, they will be ambushed instead of the surprise attack. At that time, they will be rushed by the iron stupa.

Now that Zhao Kuangyi took the lead in bringing up this method, it was exactly what he wanted.

If an accident happened in the end, it must be Zhao Kuangyi's fault.

And if he wins in the end, although Wu Sangui won't get the main credit, he can still get a subordinate credit.The risk is small, and the profit is naturally small, which is also understandable.

After hearing Wu Sangui's words, Qin Hui frowned slightly.

Although this guy didn't express his position directly, the so-called "truth" described inside and outside the words all supported Zhao Kuangyi's plan.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Kuangyi on the other side laughed and said, "Don't worry, Prime Minister Qin, he will not act recklessly in the end."

"At least check out the terrain and Jinlu's movements first, and be fully prepared before proceeding."

This is already a decision made in place of Qin Hui.

Qin Hui was silent for a moment, then nodded his head: "General Zhao, then let's go to your opinion and attack the Jinlu first."

Before Zhao Kuangyi could be happy, Qin Hui added coldly: "But let's talk about the truth first. If something goes wrong in this trip, then don't bring up the matter of encircling the city and suppressing the Jinlu in the future. You have to stick to it and wait for help. The government soldiers and the follow-up imperial troops arrive, and we will discuss the matter of retreating the enemy."

Zhao Kuangyi hesitated for a moment. He wanted to play haha ​​and pass by, but he met Qin Hui's eyes and knew that it was impossible to fool around easily, so he reluctantly nodded.

After the failure... That's after the failure, and there is no need to think about it now.

Besides, who said the siege would fail?

Once the strategy was set, Neihuang's soldiers and horses became active, and horses came in and out constantly, conveying the golden man's whereabouts.

On the other side, north of the Wei River.

In just a few days, the soldiers of the Jinren traveled across several counties and counties, and wherever they went, they turned what was barely considered a peaceful and peaceful paradise into almost uninhabited white land.

This time the Jin people broke through and went south, they never had the idea of ​​occupying Daqian, and they also knew that they couldn't do it with their own strength.

So basically just grab a piece of money and leave, and at the same time reduce the vitality of Daqian.

That being the case, the matter is simple.

Wherever you see, take away what you can take away, and destroy what you can't take away.

Countless houses were turned into scorched ruins, the seedlings in the farmhouses were burned up, the canals were dug, and the bridges were smashed open...

Destruction for destruction's sake is as simple as that.

As for the survivors on this land, the fate is even more miserable.

There was a scene where He Village was besieged by cavalry, and then burned to charred and twisted bodies, and there were also scattered and rotting corpses scattered on both sides of the road...

Only those who flee into the deep mountains can temporarily escape death...

Tangyin County, Yonghe Village.

The scorching sun scorched the dilapidated cottages below, and the transformation from the world to hell seemed to be completed in just a few days.

After several times of burning, the lingering smoke rose in the collapsed charred house, and gradually became smaller. The blood splattered on the ground and walls were also mixed in it, and there was no difference.

There are only scattered stumps, broken arms, and charred corpses... It can be proved that some cruel things happened here.

Under the shadow of the big locust tree in the west of the village, five burly golden soldiers were bare-chested, talking and laughing around a large pot. Fragrance wafts from it.

Not far from here, the farm cattle in the village fell to the ground with big muddy eyes staring at them. There was a huge gap in the neck, and a leg was cut off in a rough way. The blood soaked the surrounding land like a stream.

In such a short period of time, a layer of flies and ants crawled on the snout, the wound, and the ground of the cow, constantly rising and falling, buzzing.

But the Jin soldiers didn't care, they talked and laughed, and from time to time, some people used branches to scoop up meat from the pot, or put their hands directly into the pot.

It can be seen that they don't seem to be hungry, and the meat they pick out is eaten whole and then thrown away. Eating here is just for entertainment.

The horses they rode were all tied to the stumps of locust trees, and they grazed with their heads down, snorting from time to time.

Beside the horses were gathered a few naked women. Some of them had their chests, abdomen, necks and necks cut open with knives. They were lying on the ground with their eyes wide open and turned into corpses. The smell of blood attracted many mosquitoes and flies. , making the war horses on the side a little bored, and kept flicking their tails.

And a few people were not so seriously injured, only with sticky clotted blood in the hair on their heads, their bodies were in a mess, their faces were pale, their eyes were closed, and they were in a coma.

While a few golden soldiers were eating and drinking, a woman seemed to have woken up, holding her breath, and crawling into the woods outside cautiously, trying not to make a sound.

Turning his back to Jin Bing, who was talking and laughing, his face was covered with mud and blood, and his face could not be seen clearly, but the fear in his eyes that was only exposed outside was almost solidified, and tears continued to flow.

While crawling, there was a very thin whimpering sound in his throat, which seemed to be a sound that could only be made if the muscles in his throat were stretched...

But just when she was about to escape, a few golden soldiers on the other side suddenly burst into loud laughter.

The string in the woman's heart seemed to be broken all of a sudden, she cried loudly and ran out, but before she could take two steps, a heavy arrow with an iron head pierced her chest, spurting a pool of blood forward, Even the woman's body hit the ground heavily, twitched a few times and then fell silent.

Only then did the archery Jin Bing put down his bow, and shook his head to his companion with emotion, as if saying that his archery skills had regressed again, but the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed. Several other people laughed and teased him, and everyone warmly cheered again. Let's talk about it...

But what they didn't notice was that at this moment, in the dense forest on the side of the village, behind the lush weeds and shrubs, there were a few pairs of eyes full of hatred hidden.

Several people seemed to be young, and their posture was led by a handsome young man of about 20 years old. They were all wearing simple leather armor of a kidnapper. The hairstyle she wears is obviously not the braided hair hanging down the shoulders of the golden man, but the standard big-gan man.

At this moment, the leader had already found the angle, bent his bow and set an arrow in the bushes, but he didn't see how hard he was, the hard bow in his hand was pulled into a full moon.

The arrows were heavy arrows commonly used by Jin people, and the arrowheads were stained with black and dried blood.

Then, the strings were like thunderbolts, and the arrows were like lightning.

Jin Bing, who was showing off his archery skills with his companions, suddenly flew up and hit the companions opposite him directly. By the way, he took a pot of hot soup flying and sprinkled it between the two of them.

But at this moment there was no scalding scream.

Because the heads of the two have been strung together by the heavy arrow.
