The great hero of the Silk Road, starting from a farm farmer

"You've finally arrived. I've been looking forward to the cavalry these days like I'm looking forward to the stars.

Seeing that they could not break through our army's defenses, the Mimeng people sent small groups of cavalry one after another over the past few days. I was so anxious that I almost lost my defense line. After your troops arrive, you must cooperate with Brigadier Wei in fighting, but you must first block the opening. "

Six days after the Mimeng launched their attack, the army Song Yingkui was most looking forward to finally arrived at the front line.

Bai Feiyan arrived at the battlefield with nearly three thousand vassal cavalry. In front of Bai Feiyan, Song Yingkui couldn't help but vomit bitterness. The arrival of this force is so timely, and can largely make up for the current lack of mobile forces in the Yungu Army.

In fact, the newly formed Xiang Militia Regiment in the army also has cavalry combat capabilities, but Song Yingkui does not dare to use this unit at this stage.

"Aren't you very capable? Why are you so passively beaten this time? The Mi Meng people are so powerful that you can only defend them?" Bai Feiyan teased Song Yingkui's situation while becoming concerned about the military situation.

"The defense is almost over. In a few days, the main deployment of my side will be completed. At that time, the counterattack will be launched. Frankly speaking, the Mimeng's combat power is only that much. The key is that they have more soldiers. He has strong mobility. If I have too few soldiers, it will be useless to attack." With the arrival of Bai Feiyan, the army's reorganization work has come to an end. The most difficult period has been passed, and Song Yingkui feels that he can breathe a little easier.

"I heard that you are planning to use the Xiang army to surrender. Can they be reliable?" Bai Feiyan already knew about the establishment of the Xiang army camp, and she was equally uneasy about this force.

"Just use them and see. If you don't need them, there are no other soldiers available. When you get to the battlefield, hold your gun at the back and see if they dare to retreat!"

……

Seven days after Bai Feiyan's troops arrived on the battlefield, Song Yingkui issued an order for the entire army to counterattack. During this period of time, he had been suppressed and beaten by the Mongol army, and those who were beaten were holding back their breath.

The first to attack were the two infantry regiments of the Yungu Army. They waited for the two infantry regiments to open a gap and rush behind the enemy's defense line. Liang Huonv led nearly [-] troops to surrender and broke out of the defense line. Behind them were the Yungu Army cavalry and the Bai Feiyan tribe.

In this battle, both sides invested more than [-] troops. The battle line was definitely not one battalion at a time. The entire battlefield was quite large in front, with battalions facing battalions and formations facing each other. It was divided into several local battlefields as soon as it unfolded.

One day later, the battle situation became more complicated. The line from Longshan Pass to Lunde became a battlefield. Soldiers and horses from both sides were intertwined, charging back and forth, and it was quite chaotic.

The most amazing thing is that this battle is obviously a decisive battle between the Yungu Army and the Mimeng Army, but Xiang Jun is the most present on the battlefield. More than [-] troops from the Mongol Army surrendered to join the battle, and nearly [-] troops from the Yungu Army.

The serious protagonist doesn’t seem to have many foils!
  "Farewell Chizhe, you didn't complain about your defeat last time. These Yungu barbarians are a formidable enemy, and it's hard for our elite army to defeat them." Mi Meng Khan Zhawotai looked at the battlefield in front of him with sharp eyes. He said something fair to Chi Zheli who had been deprived of his military power.

Zhawotai said that the elite could not do anything to Yun Gujun, but he was actually trying to save face for himself. Not only were they unable to deal with the Yungu Army, they were also unable to get close at all. As long as they meet the main force of the Yungu Army, no matter who they are, they will be shot.

"We can't continue to fight like this. We have to open up the battle line. As long as the battle line is open, fighters will appear. Although the Yungu barbarians are tough, their infantry are the bottom of the army. If we stay on the left and right sides of the defense line, our army will There is really nothing we can do. But this barbarian surnamed Song suddenly showed up. I think he will go back if he has the ability.

Send an order and the whole army retreats to the direction of Guyuan and fights at the same time to draw the enemy troops far away. Once they are drawn far away, they can be dealt with properly. "Seeing that if we fight hard on the front line of Lunde, we are likely to lose. Zhawotai is experienced, and he is ready to use his special skill of luring the enemy deep. What is luring the enemy deep? Novices will have a preset battlefield when luring the enemy deep. , and prepare ambush troops and horses. The real master neither presets the battlefield nor prepares fixed ambush troops and horses in advance. Everything is done on the move.

When fighter planes appear, his troops will be in place in a very short time. When there are no fighter planes, it looks like a retreat. Of course, if the fighter plane never shows up, it will really be an orderly retreat.

……

The enemy troops are retreating in depth, and the Yungu Army can only pursue forward. If they stop at this time, they will immediately counterattack, and the counterattack will be in vain!
  At the beginning, the Yungu Army still pursued in brigade units, but after chasing, it became regiment and battalion units.

The surrender regiment led by Liang Huonv became even more fragmented. The organization was already very fragmented, but it would only become even more fragmented when encountering this kind of chaos.

The Mimeng people also looked quite scattered. I don't know if their main troops were really scattered or fake, but at least their servants were really scattered.

The front line from Guyuan to Lunde, more than a hundred miles away, was filled with warring men and horses from both sides, and the entire battlefield became a hornet's nest.

Song Yingkui felt that he had encountered the first chaotic battle in history, and that the battle situation was completely out of control. Anyway, he could not effectively command now.

"Use all possible means to convey orders to all armies. Our troops and horses must maintain the combat order of battalions and cannot be divided into smaller groups. Battalions must be kept within thirty miles of each other. Whoever breaks away will This safe distance requires military law.

The reserve brigade that has rushed to Jingzhou will head to Lunde as soon as possible. They must clear out the remaining troops between Longde and Jingzhou. Song Yingfang is responsible for ensuring the transportation of military supplies from Longde to the front line. Send him a regiment! In addition, all transportation teams are under his control and call, and they obey his command unconditionally. Let him try his best to build a secure support battle every thirty miles on the front line.

All enemy troops who surrendered in front of the formation were ordered to turn and attack the Mongol army. Anyone who retreated would be eliminated on the spot. The disabled soldiers and horses who have lost their combat effectiveness are gathered at the support station and taken by the transportation team to Jingzhou City for resettlement.

The commander-in-chief has his own troops and follows the commander-in-chief to the front line. The whole army started the war with the commander's personal regiment as the center. "If the melee continues like this, the battle will become a bad battle. There is no way, Song Yingkui has no choice but to go to the front line, so that the whole army can have a reference and reassurance during the battle.

War in this era is like this. No matter how big the scale is, the commander cannot leave the battlefield. He must serve as the central army and the vane, stabilizing the military formation at the core position.

In such a large-scale war, the third uncle Song Xueliang could not bear the responsibility of the commander-in-chief of the Chinese army. Only Song Yingkui himself could stand at the forefront.

As Song Yingkui's regiment moved forward, the battle situation slowly became orderly. Even Liang Huo's female troops seemed to be alive, and their progress was even greater than that of the main force of the Yungu Army.
