Southern Song Dynasty military god

Chapter 196 On the edge of the Qinling Mountains, there is water like blood

Wulu and Yihe each led 2000 soldiers, and after the round of Dasanguan, they came all the way towards the direction of Monk Yuan.

That Ulu is thirty this year, full of vigor, and he looks down on Song people the most, thinking that Song people are cowardly, and it is enough for Shangfeng to send him out. The combination of the two is very contemptible.

After leaving the Dasan Pass, because the two teams were cavalry, and the personal soldiers even had two cavalry, and Ulu didn't care about the Song Army at all, he even ordered The troop let go of their speed and rushed all the way, throwing the equivalent of two thousand horses far away.

At the same time, the 150 cavalry led by Liu Wei, carrying the [-] crossbow bolts supervised by Wu Lin himself, had already arrived at the predetermined position.

In fact, Liu Wei and others were already in place two days in advance. This place is a long slope added between two mountain platforms. Standing on the top of the slope and looking down, there is an illusion that you can't see the bottom at a glance. .Liu Wei rode his horse back and forth three times. Although his crotch was not considered a famous horse, he was at least a rare good horse in the Song army, and it took almost a stick of incense to make the fastest trip.

After getting this data, Liu Wei silently calculated in his mind. At the same time, he divided the team of 150 people into two teams, of which 100 people dug clear springs on the two sides of the mountain platform to form cofferdams.

"My lord, the cofferdam has begun to store water, but the water is scarce. If you want to use it for water attack, you may be powerless!"

Chai Qingyuan, who was in charge of this work, came to report the results to Liu Wei.

Because it is close to the Qinling Mountains and the Weihe River, it is not difficult for Liu Wei to dig clear springs on both sides of the slope, but as Chai Qingyuan said, even if it is to build a cofferdam to accumulate water, there is no accumulation time of ten days and a half months. Don't think about forming a monstrous flood and threatening the incoming golden soldiers.

Liu Wei smiled lightly, and said firmly, "Didn't the scouts come to report that Ulu was in a hurry to come to die?"

"Indeed! Wulu has a total of two thousand cavalry and nearly three thousand horses!" Although Liu Wei didn't answer the question for some reason, Chai Qingyuan still answered Liu Wei honestly.

"Three thousand good horses, hey, we are inherently deficient in this aspect! Qing Yuan, you have to take away the 100 people Wu Jie sent to us at that time, and don't let them see that we have hidden good horses!"

"Subordinates take orders!"

In fact, what Chai Qingyuan was thinking was: I haven't talked about how this battle will be fought, so why are we discussing the distribution of spoils?Could it be that the golden soldiers who came were all native chickens and dogs?But no matter what, there are 2000 people!

Looking at the expression on Chai Qingyuan's face, Liu Wei could guess what he was thinking.It's just that Liu Wei didn't seem to explain it at this time. As soon as he turned his head, he saw Wu Anbang who was ordered to do things coming.

"My lord, the things are brought!"

"Oh? Very good, how many have you collected?"

"My lord, there are few households here in Monk Yuan, and there are not many private blacksmiths, so there are only twenty in total!" Wu Anbang stepped forward and said.

"Twenty is barely enough. Judging by the weather, it won't rain in these two days. According to the previous plan, you should hurry up and implement it!"

"Order!"

Wu Anbang, who had just handed in the order, didn't seem to have time to catch his breath. He hurriedly greeted Chai Qingyuan, turned around and left.

"My lord, why do you collect so many sledges?" Chai Qingyuan knew what Wu Anbang was collecting, but he couldn't figure out what the sledges had to do with the upcoming battle.

"Qingyuan, tell me, Wulu is so impatient. When he finds out that the Song Army is active on this mountain, will he mount a horse to attack?" Liu Wei smiled lightly and asked calmly.

"That's natural! The situation of Monk Yuan must be very clear to the Jin Army. There are a total of 5000 people. Depending on the terrain, they may be able to barely resist. Here in the wilderness, there is a good opportunity for the formal cavalry to make meritorious deeds. Let the subordinates see , with Na Wulu's character, he definitely won't let it go!"

"That's it!" Liu Wei nodded again, and said with long fingers: "It takes me almost a stick of incense to run up to this place alone, even if the golden man is better at riding than me, and the horse is better than me. Impossible to rush forward with half a stick of incense?"

"Of course it's impossible! How can a large group of people run faster than a single person? There is always a discount."

"So, if we want to defeat the strong with the weak, and win the many with the few, we must work hard on this road! You go to supervise the construction of the cofferdam. Every point is one point, but don't let the brothers You are too tired, at least you have to have the strength to wind up, hum, have you seen those fifty god-armed crossbows?"

"I've seen it, to be honest, it's not as good as the Qin crossbow we use!"

"Isn't it!" Liu Wei followed Chai Qingyuan to despise those corrupt officials. The so-called 350-step magic arm crossbow actually has a range of less than [-], and the distance varies. The fault is that the range requirements for this mission are not too high Gao, Liu Wei really dare not use these inferior products.

But after thinking about it, Wu Jie was able to allocate one hundred crossbow archers, fifty god arm crossbows and three thousand difficult-to-make crossbow bolts to Liu Wei, which not only represented Wu Jie's attention and expectation for Liu Wei, but also I want to raise the morale of monk Shangyuan's defenders through such a battle with a huge disparity in numbers for subsequent battles.

Liu Wei didn't know how the battles of Monk Yuan went in history. He only knew that not only could he not lose this battle, but he had to win it beautifully. There will be a day when you will be promoted to an official position.

For Wulu, he really wanted to put wings on every horse under his command, fly directly to Monk Yuan, and kill the few Song army, so as to become the first team among the Jin army to set foot in Bashu. Wherever I go, I am afraid it will not be a problem to confer the title of Marquis and Duke.

In order to get his subordinates excited, along the way, Wulu instilled in his subordinates how incompetent the Song Army was, and he didn't even need to draw his sword. Just a short yell could make the general of the Song Army flee. The harvest is his own, and he can go straight to Hanzhong. This rich metropolis of the Song Dynasty is full of gold, silver, treasures, and beautiful slaves.

Under Wulu's teasing, the two thousand fine riders under his command were really high-spirited, and they wished to fight the Song army now.

Therefore, when the scouts came to report that a small number of Song troops were stationed ahead, the leading generals under Wulu's command all rushed to the front, trying to win the battle.

At this time, Wulu was not in a hurry, and asked the scout how many troops there were in the Song army.

When he learned that the number was less than a thousand, Wulu rolled his eyes and said to the generals who were still quarreling: "Everyone don't need to fight, but there are only a few hundred Song troops, and there are not enough sacrificial knives. Why don't we arrive tomorrow?" Before the battle, go directly to fight and let the big guys warm up, that's all!"

If it was the Song army that Ulu and others had met in the past, there was nothing wrong with this fighting method. After all, fighting on horseback was the strength of the Jin people, and they didn't even need special training. They lived on horseback since they were young. The golden man on his back knows the essence of riding and fighting "coming and going like the wind, gathering and dispersing invisible". It turned out that the cavalry trained in the Song Dynasty were far inferior to the Jinren in terms of individual combat power and overall combat flexibility.

Of course, it does not mean that during the entire Song Dynasty, there was no cavalry that could contend against the Golden Cavalry. A severe blow to Jin Qi's arrogance.

It's a pity that that's a matter of the future. So far, in terms of cavalry, the Jinren are still invincible.

The warm autumn sun finally set, and twinkling stars began to appear in the sky.

Liu Wei looked up at the sky again, and he was completely relieved by the misty Milky Way lying across the sky.

The scouts of the Jinren have come here three or four times today, which proves that Wulu's team is very close. It will definitely launch an attack if it is not tomorrow morning, and it will not be delayed until tomorrow afternoon. Liu Wei's only worry is whether it will rain .

Fortunately, the autumn weather has been breezy these past few days, and there is no sign of rain at all.

"My lord, according to your request, the water level in the several cofferdams at the top of the slope has reached the standard." Chai Qingyuan still didn't understand what Liu Wei's overall plan was at this time, but he was a good executor. Under the circumstances, the cofferdam requested by Liu Wei has been completed.

"Qingyuan, come, sit down and rest!"

After Chai Qingyuan sat down according to his orders, Liu Wei said: "Tomorrow's battle, I'm afraid we will have to start with the easy and then the difficult. The 100 people Wu Jie gave us, I ask them to stand on the high platforms on both sides and shoot arrows at the golden soldiers." That's right, our 50 people will go around to the bottom at that time, but we must be careful. I still don't know where the converted people have gone. If you find that the situation is wrong, you and Anbang must act decisively and take When our people leave, we must not be caught between the two golden teams, remember to remember!"

Feeling the concern in Liu Wei's words, Chai Qingyuan nodded heavily and said: "Please rest assured, my lord, this subordinate will definitely act according to the order."

Liu Wei nodded, and told Chai Qingyuan some things that need to be paid attention to in tactics. It was not until Chai Qingyuan couldn't help but ask Liu Wei how to restrain the two thousand golden horses on the ramp that Liu Wei finally stood up. .

Because the location of the two people is on the high platform next to the ramp, in order to facilitate the command, this place chosen by Liu Wei is regarded as the commanding height nearby. Even though the moonlight is not clear tonight, the two of them can vaguely see the outline of the surrounding .

Pointing to the long slope, Liu Wei said: "The water flows downhill. It's fine if the Jin soldiers don't come tomorrow. As long as they come, I will make this mountain spring in the Qinling Mountains turn as red as blood!"

The clear spring is sweet, but it will be stained with blood.

"It's time, the blood debt owed by the Jinren must always be paid with blood!"
