Water Margin people

Chapter 1308: Expand the formation

"He's right, it's time for us to make a choice! These tens of thousands of people can't just watch and die! We should save those who can be saved."

Master Zhong finally regained his strength and looked at everyone and said.

When Zhong Shidao opened his mouth, everyone was silent, even the most senior generals. What else could they insist on?

"There will be a big battle ahead, so you'd better explain the situation clearly to the soldiers."

Han Shizhong looked at everyone and said that the next battle will be more intense, and there may not be such good luck or timely support. If you want to survive the battle, you can only rely on yourself.

In the dark night, there were constant shouts of killing. Lin Chong and Wang Jin launched a fierce offensive. Under the cover of artillery, crossbows, and rockets, they broke through the enemy's forward positions and achieved an overall advance of the army. The Jin army was soon pressed to the Liao River. One line.

For ten consecutive days, Qi's front advanced hundreds of miles across the Liao River, occupying Jin's positions almost every day. The Jin army was retreating steadily, and the Jin army had almost retreated to the vicinity of Lu Mountain.

"These Jin people are still too simple-minded!"

Sun Lei looked at the battle report and shook his head.

"Your Majesty, these barbarians have only been around for a short time and have no cultural heritage. Although they study hard, they are ultimately limited."

Zhu Wu said with a smile that it had only been ten years since the Jin Kingdom launched its army. Overall, it had no foundation, and the battles were all the same. Now they are fighting such an ineffective blockade on the plains.

"There is only one Liao River in the Liaodong Plain, there are no solid cities, and there are no big forests. We really think we are the same as them."

Sun Lei said with a smile that since ancient times, bunkers have been required in blocking battles, relying on cities, mountains, terrain, and rivers to build defense lines, but the Jin Kingdom actually formed formations on the plains and fought and retreated at the same time.

"How is our formation?"

Sun Lei looked at Xu Guanzhong and asked.

"The leading troops have already chased the enemy. Sister Gu asked if the logistics should move forward, otherwise the hot buns would not be transported to the front line in time."

Xu Guanzhong said.

"Well, let Mrs. Gu lead the people forward!"

Sun Lei heard that the vanguard had been chasing closely, and knew that his formation had been fully deployed, and a melee might follow.

"Be careful these days. The enemy may launch a cavalry raid at any time and distribute all the prepared dry food and water."

Sun Lei nodded, he had already exposed his weakness, now he would see when Yan Wu would be fooled.

"Your Majesty, do you want Lin Chong and Wang Jin to move closer to the central army? I always feel that the gap in this formation is too big!"

Zhu Wu said worriedly. He looked at the sand table and saw that Lin Chong and Wang Jin's troops were more than ten miles away from the Chinese army. With such a large gap, the enemy cavalry could drive straight in.

"Isn't this the effect we want? With so many people in the Chinese army, why are we still afraid of the Jin army's attack?"

Sun Lei smiled.

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will kill as many as I, the Iron Bull, come!"

Li Kui said with excitement. Since the first battle, he had led people to kill several times, and every time he killed the enemy to pieces.

Jin Kingdom Camp.

Wanyan Wu Qimai frowned, and the tribal leaders below were very excited. They had strong opinions on the war during this period.

"Your Majesty, our Jurchen tribes have been following the Taizu to raise armies. How have we ever been defeated like this? More than 400,000 people are being chased like rabbits. Where is the face of our Jurchens!"

Several powerful tribal leaders looked at Wanyan Wu begging for money and said, although the Wanyan tribe unified the Jurchen tribes and established the Jin Kingdom, in fact the Jin Kingdom was still a tribal alliance.

"Everyone, you have also seen that the enemy is well-equipped. How can we deal with them if they have a strict formation on this plain?"

Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at the leaders and asked. He knew that these people wanted to end the battle as soon as possible and then return to their respective tribes to farm, herd, and fish.

"This is a plain, and nearly half of the enemies are infantry. Can't we just charge in and kill them?"

"Yes, you said before that you can kill the enemy by pulling them apart. Now that the enemy's formation has been fully deployed, we are more than 200 miles away from the capital of Liaoyang. What are we waiting for!"

A group of leaders expressed their opinions.

"No, the enemy's formation has not been fully deployed yet. If we attack the enemy's center at this time, the elites on both wings of the enemy will close together. Then we will close the door and beat the dog!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai said. "Then they have to be able to close the door. Can our army kill them?"

The leader still refused, they just wanted a quick victory.

"I know what you are thinking. You are worried about the tribe's harvest this year, right? Don't worry. As long as we win this battle, the spoils will be enough for us to divide the Jin Kingdom. Moreover, we can also send our troops southward and plunder the rich Central Plains at will. plunder.”

Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at everyone and said, he knew that all the tribes were very anxious and he needed to stabilize people's hearts, and profit was the best tranquilizer.

After hearing that they could share the spoils and go south to plunder, the leaders stopped talking. As long as there were enough benefits, they were still willing to wait.

"Your Majesty, how long do we have to wait?"

Everyone looked at Wanyan Wu to beg for money.

"The enemy's formation has been stretched. Next, we will slow down our retreat and rely on Lushan's defense. In the battles in the past few days, we will pull on both wings to draw Lin Chong and Wang Jin's army away, so that they are at least far away from Sun Lei's center. Army fifty miles."

Wanyan Wu Qimai said.

"Fifty miles? Does it need to be this far?"

Everyone was a little confused when they heard about fifty miles. This distance was a bit too far. It would take more than half a day for the infantry to march over such a long distance, and two hours for the cavalry.

"We must make sure nothing goes wrong! Sun Lei must be killed in this battle! Only in this way can we win this victory and march south!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai said.

"Okay, we will lure Lin Chong and Wang Jin's army away, and I hope you can kill Sun Lei by then!"

After a group of leaders discussed it, they looked at Wanyan Wu begging for money and said.

"Don't worry, everyone, I will personally lead my troops into the enemy town and kill Sun Lei when the time comes!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai looked at everyone and assured.

The leaders nodded and left the camp to return to their respective tribes.

"Your Majesty, do you really want to lead the troops to attack in person?"

Wanyan Xiyin looked worriedly at Wanyan Wu's begging and asked.

"Sun Lei dares to come to the front line, am I not as good as Sun Lei?"

Wanyan Wu Qimai said.

"Of course not. How can that dandy Sun Lei compare to His Majesty? It's just that the charge to kill is of great importance!"

Wanyan Xiyin said.

"You don't understand. There are nearly 200,000 troops around Sun Lei. How can we attack with so many troops? I have to step in and lead the enemy out!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai said.

"Are you asking for king versus king?"

Wanyan Gao asked as he looked at Wanyan Wu begging for money.

"Yes, Sun Lei has this idea. Otherwise, why do you think he would appear on the front line? He uses himself as bait to catch me as a fish. It depends on whether he catches me ashore and eats me, or I drag him Drowned in the water."

Wanyan Wu Qimai said.

"Your Majesty, we just need to take people there!"

Wanyan Loushi spoke.

"That's right, let's just go and kill that Sun Lei!"

Jin Wushu also spoke.

"I have made up my mind. You don't need to say anything. The Chinese army will not retreat from now on and will build a defense line based on Lushan Mountain!"

Wanyan Wu Qimai shook his head firmly.
