The struggle of the reborn prince

Yesterday when it was agreed to annihilate Xiao Heda, everyone believed that the Xia army had been attacked by the Zhongyong army many times, and they had become frightened birds. Bait to catch big fish', and in this Western Expedition, the weakest combat force is the logistics team. Only the 'third-rate' troops like them can arouse the interest of Xia Jun, so the policy of 'lure the enemy deep and bloom in the center' is set. tactics.Internet without pop-up window update fast

The strategy of this battle is to lure the Xia army with the supply team as a bait, and then the supply team relies on the chariot formation to hold on to attract more Xia troops. The army was wrapped in it, and finally the two sides worked hard to solve Xia Jun.And the key to the success of this tactic is the supply team. If the soldiers protect it, Xia Jun will not dare to take action when he finds that the bones are too hard; After killing people and grabbing things, they left, so it is not enough to rely solely on the protection of the Hedong Army, but when the Zhongyong Army brigade moves, the Xia Army will find out that this is a trap, and finally decided to use the weakest "combat power" as the main defensive force. , Attracting Xia Jun to take the bait, Zhao Zhi became the leader who did his part.

Zhao Zhi didn't think it was a big deal at the time. The supply battalion was his direct subordinate unit. Although it was a logistics unit, everyone from commanders to general drivers and grooms had undergone strict military training and were equipped with few heavy weapons. Well, the weapons in their hands are a bit old, but they are all one-shot Lianzhu guns, and they have an advantage that other troops don't have, that is, they have enough ammunition. Who told them to do this?In order to make up for Zhao Zhi's lack of command and combat experience.Everyone helped him formulate a detailed battle plan.The combat operation dubbed "Temptation" by the prince began...

As is the case with many things in the world, 'looking' and 'doing' are two completely different feelings - looking easier than doing.Because of the real operation, it was discovered that there were many life-and-death details that were not considered.So there are some things, you can only know the saltiness if you have tasted it. The real battlefield is not as planned in the battle plan, everything is messed up.

Zhao Zhi also quickly discovered why the prince called that plan "temptation". The perfect design in it not only seduced the enemy but also seduced himself, but now he regretted it like those Xia Jun who charged, and it was too late. On the scalp!

The soldiers hurriedly connected the carts into a formation, but forgot to take off the saddle horses.They all took their guns and fired at the enemy with 'crackling', letting the horses wander in the formation.Those civilian husbands are even more worrying, running around without thinking, looking for hiding places.If there were no cars to stop them, some people would probably be able to run against Xia Jun's horseshoes, the rain of arrows flying, and the supplies scattered everywhere. . .The scene was a mess.

"*** These unlucky bastards use me as bait. If something goes wrong today, I have to fight them hard when I go back!" Zhao Zhi seemed calm, but he was still a little flustered when he saw Xia Jun suddenly swarming in. He has been fighting on the logistics front since the expansion of the Zhongyong Army. He has never been to the forefront in several battles. Naturally, he lacks some experience in facing the enemy, but today this task was given to him after discussion by the brothers.It is said that it is most suitable for him to command in front of the battle. Not only is he qualified, but he is also experienced enough to be fully competent.

According to the plan, the resistance of the supply battalion should be limited. It can neither fight too hard and let the enemy flee, nor let the Xia army break through the chariot formation, causing a lot of casualties and material losses. Instead, the enemy should be attracted here and surrounded. Gather and annihilate.It's not easy to control the heat, but the chaotic situation in front of him helped Zhao Zhi, no one looked like it was pretending to be chaotic, this was a true reproduction of the original!

'Hoo hoo. . . Xia Jun's rider roared in his mouth, galloping his horse and quickly surrounded him from two directions.Immediately after approaching, shoot arrows into the car formation to prevent the formation of the car formation.The civilian soldiers who had no time to hide were shot and fell to the ground.

Although Xia Jun was a little surprised that the Song army rushed to the car formation in a hurry, he was still very excited about the success of the ambush. , and the arrows fired by the archer in a panic didn't know where they went!

"General, Xia's cavalry has three thousand cavalry. They rushed out from the southeast and northwest intersections and surrounded us. Now our army's chariot formation is basically completed. Please instruct us on the next move!" Song Gang, the commander of the supply battalion, reported.

"Keep the enemy out of the car formation, and never let them break into the defensive circle!" Zhao Zhi ordered, looking at the car formation that had taken shape, but he was also sweating in his heart.

Xia Jun still adopts the old tactics, riding horses around the formation non-stop, shooting a shower of arrows after approaching, if there is a loophole in the Song Army formation, immediately speed up and rush into the formation, Zhang Lan, the ninth general, knows that this situation is the most critical , the formation had not yet been consolidated, and the soldiers were still in a panic. Once a place was broken by Xia Jun, it would be impossible to deal with it, so he personally stepped forward to supervise the battle, ordered the archers to scatter to prevent Xia Jun from approaching, and at the same time ordered the infantry to step up. Form an array at the front, stop Xia Jun's attack first.

The baffles of the carriages were opened one after another. Only then did everyone realize that what was inside was not food and supplies, but heavily armed soldiers. These people knew by looking at the armbands that they were the personal guards of the Dragon General and the Leopard General. It turned out that Zhao Zhi also kept a hand. The supply battalion originally only had more than 500 people. In order to prevent accidents, he asked half of Gao Chong and Zhao Shi's personal guards to come over to act as "thugs", and those two were also willing to help. It came in handy right away. . .

'Bang bang. . . There was a burst of gunshots, and several Xia Jun riders fell down, scaring them badly, and immediately kicked their horses back. Although they didn't retreat, the circle enlarged quite a lot.

"Come on, don't stop, the Zhongyong Army brigade is already far away, and there are not many people here!" Xiao Heda was stunned for a moment, and found that although the Song Army in the car formation had firearms, the number was not large enough to attack them If a big threat is formed, immediately urge the army to continue the attack.

Xiao Heda took the lead and rode his horse towards the chariot formation. Xia Jun heard the order and quickly spread out again to surround the Song Army in the center of the battlefield, and then launched attacks from all angles, intending to encircle and wipe out the Song Army.The two sides entered into a melee, the distance was too close, although the Song army relied on carts to shoot, but without machine guns and artillery, their firepower was much weaker, and it was difficult to form an absolute advantage over the Xia army's crazy attack.

After Xia Jun paid a certain amount of casualties, he rushed to the chariot formation with his horse, and the situation suddenly became tense.The height of the cart can reach seven feet, and the horses cannot jump over it no matter what. Those Xia Jun riders rushed forward and stood on the saddle. The moment they hit the carriage, they jumped on the roof of the carriage and jumped into it The carriages and carriages were also knocked sideways by the out-of-control horses; and Xia Bing, who rushed to the gap in the carriages, simply urged him to get off his horse, trying to jump over the low horse barriers. Although the success rate was not high, most of them were stabbed to death by spears. , but someone still managed to break through, knocked the horse-rejection formation away, and rushed in.

"I'm afraid to scare Xia Jun away. If this goes on, I will see the King of Hades first!" Zhao Zhi was so angry, why did he get out of such a drudgery by himself, "Ma Liu, take someone with you right away!" Block the gap, Yang Qing reinforces the southeast car formation, Commander Zhang ordered you to lead your troops to expel the Xia army who entered the car formation, Wang Zhubo, you choose the young and strong, use grain bags, and wooden stakes to reinforce the car formation!" Zhao Zhi didn't care to hold back , Pressed all the reserve teams in his hands, and after a fierce battle, withstood the first wave of Xia Jun's attack.

"My lord, although the bandit army has retreated, our reinforcements will not arrive until later. If the bandit army attacks with fire, we are all flammable things. Once the fire breaks out, we will be doomed. We need to prepare early!" Zhao Zhi just breathed a sigh of relief and ordered people to strengthen their guard, repair the fortifications, and prepare to fight again. He made up his mind that the enemy should not be allowed to approach the car formation next time. At least the distance should be controlled within fifty paces, otherwise it would be too dangerous. At that time, an old man came over and said to him.

"Old man, how did you know there would be reinforcements? Who told you?" Zhao Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then looked up and down the old man in front of him and said. Unlike other civilian husbands who wear bare feet or hemp shoes, they wear a pair of old official boots. He is a little old in his 50s, but it can be seen that he was a handsome man when he was young.

"Hehe, my lord, when you came suddenly in the morning, I found out that something was wrong. When Xia Jun came, I knew it was your lord's plan. He used the luggage as bait to lure the enemy to attack, and no one told the old man!" He still bowed and said, but his words were neither humble nor overbearing.

"Wang Zhu Bo, who is this person?" Zhao Zhi was surprised when he heard this. The old man knew his intentions only through his own observation. .

"General, this man is a civilian husband recruited from Fenyang. The subordinate officials saw that he could read and write, and could write and count, so they asked him to serve as the secretary temporarily to assist the subordinate officials in their work!" Wang Yi, the chief secretary of the Jinning Army, quickly replied road.

"Oh, I didn't expect that there are capable people in this country. Since the old man knows about this, please remember not to spread it!" Zhao Zhi said with a wry smile, "Then what is the old man's opinion on the Xia army's fire attack?"

"I don't dare. We are surrounded by valleys, far away from water sources. If we can't extinguish it, it will be a disaster. Now we can prepare sandbags wrapped in soil, cover the grain and grass with sand, and set fire. Even if a fire starts, we can use sandbags wrapped in soil to bury it." , even if there is fire, it is difficult to cause a catastrophe!" The old man replied.

"Well, it's a good idea. Does the old man have any other good suggestions?" Zhao Zhi listened to what he said made sense, and immediately arranged for someone to do it. He asked the old man to sit down and asked again.

"A large army's expedition, feeding food for thousands of miles, is actually a waste of money. In fact, adults can solve it in many ways. Now that the autumn harvest is approaching, we can let the army bring money to buy food on the spot, or we can use food instead of tax on the spot to levy on the spot. Grain; if there is a shortage of food in front, but Yanzhou City is about to collapse, and the green and white salt is produced there, you can imitate the past and use salt money as a guide to let the caravan transport grain for salt, and the cost will be lower than the cost of recruiting civilians to transport grain; There are many rivers and the water is gentle, and at worst, we can still transport grain with water tanks, which is better than people carrying horses!" The old man was not polite, and said to Zhao Zhi. . .
