Chapter 1206 Can the battle flag from four hundred years ago still fly?
"Bold thief! Don't stop yet!"
When Ma Chao saw the war horse, he naturally also saw Gong Jun standing outside the war horse.
Ma Chao and others need to hide, so they will naturally look for a place to place their war horses. This area near the forest, where water and grass are abundant, is slightly sunken and has small slopes on three sides. People cannot go close and cannot see the war horses at all.
Become the best hiding place.
But now this place where horses are hidden is becoming the burial place of these war horses.
Gong Jun was leading some soldiers, standing on the opposite slope, holding bows, arrows and crossbows, massacring these poor horses...
The war horses whine.
The uninjured horses collided with each other in a panic and ran away from the gap on the east side. Several of Ma Chao's men who were originally on duty at the gap had already fallen to the ground, and the blood under their bodies was soaked in the ground.
Seeing Ma Chao appear, Gong Jun smiled at Ma Chao, as if he saw an old friend he hadn't seen for many years. Not only that, but he also waved to Ma Chao, as if he was saying hello to an old friend, but the corners of his mouth were crooked.
, and ordered in a low voice to the soldiers on both sides: "Shoot him to death!"
Immediately, two or three soldiers raised their crossbows and aimed at Ma Chao.
"..."
When Ma Chao saw it, all the hairs on his body stood up. He didn't even dare to reply. He was so frightened that he immediately shrank down the slope and hid his body.
This is different from the ups and downs on the ship at that time. Although Gong Jun's soldiers standing on the ground may not be able to penetrate Yang Yang with a hundred steps, there is no problem at all in shooting Ma Chao's body. If Gong Jun is allowed to shoot in person, it will not be like this
At a distance of a hundred steps, you can really choose at will and shoot wherever you want.
"Tsk!" Gong Jun looked at Ma Chao who immediately retracted his head, and couldn't help but sighed with pity. If he had known that Ma Chao would come out from that direction, he would have kept a well-strung crossbow in his hand.
Alas, what a pity...
"Marquis, do you want to pursue me?"
Gong Jun rolled his eyes, looked at Ma Chao's soldiers who had been killed by the Di people and fled in all directions, and said: "Let's meet these Di people first..."
The appearance of the Di people was also beyond Gong Jun's expectation. Although Gong Jun immediately ordered the attack after seeing the Di people attack Ma Chao, Gong Jun felt that it was necessary to understand the Di people's attitude immediately.
"I've seen King Diren." Gong Jun stepped forward and cupped his hands, "I'm really happy to see King Diren recover today..."
The Di man Wang Meng was holding a bloody double-sided battle ax and standing at the edge of the mountain forest. After seeing Gong Jun, he scratched a bunch of hair on the top of his head and tilted his neck. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Lord Nei Wu clan coughing.
He made a sound and looked back at the leader of the Neiwu clan.
The leader of the Neiwu clan introduced: "Your Majesty, this is the envoy who sent hundreds of horses to conquer the west last time..."
"Oh..." Di Ren Wang Yu suddenly realized, he laughed twice, and did not answer the question about his body, but said, "Why are you here?"
"My general discovered that a group of Qiang people were doing something...well, that's what happened..." Gong Jun looked at the Diren King's face and deliberately spoke more vaguely, "...so I ordered you to come and check.
I didn’t expect to meet the King of Di Ren…”
"Oh? Could it be that your general was also robbed by these damn thieves?" said Wang Hu, a Di man.
Gong Jun nodded and said: "Ah, yes... Dear King Di Ren, my general is not far ahead. Since we are destined to meet here today, do you have the honor to invite King Di Ren to meet him?"
"Meeting? Hmm... That's fine..." King Diren scratched his head, turned to the leader of the Neiwu clan and said, "But I'm tired, so I won't go... You can go there on my behalf."
…”
Seeing this, Gong Jun nodded and cupped his hands, then left to deliver the news to Zheng Xifeiqian.
The Di man Wang Ke shook off the blood on his battle axe, looked at Gong Jun's leaving figure, and said to the leader of the Neiwu clan: "...did you see? These guys' movements in the mountains and forests are no different.
What a difference we have... These Qiang people are becoming less and less decent now... You can take some people to meet this Zhengxi, see more, talk less, and don't agree to anything anyway...
"
The leader of the Neiwu clan immediately understood and quickly agreed.
……………………
"It seems like they're starting to take action later..." Fei Qian looked back at the red flag that had just been erected on the hilltop to the south and said, "I just don't know how to... eh..."
Not long after, the red flag on the hilltop was removed and replaced with a blue flag.
Red is fighting.
Blue means the battle has been completed and the incoming enemy has been defeated.
If his side loses, a yellow flag will be erected so that Feiqian can prepare in advance.
Is this a win?
This speed is too fast, right?
Fei Qian looked at Li Ru in disbelief, pointed to the road, and said, "This...is this done?"
Having received the two skins sent by the scouts before, Fei Qian realized that someone might have bypassed the Western Han River and sneaked into his rear. Although it was possible that only sporadic hunters on the mountains and rivers had shot their prey, this possibility was not very likely.
Big, because the reason is very simple. Ordinary people in the Han Dynasty were very poor. Although two fox skins were not worth much, they were more expensive than sheepskins after all. If they were killed by ordinary people and hunters, they would definitely be cautious.
Peeling would not damage the fur, and he was not willing to throw it away easily, so even ordinary scouts noticed the abnormality and presented the two skins to Fei Qian.
The enemy troops that circled back had only two purposes, one was to cut off food, and the other was to make a surprise attack. Fei Qian had just received a batch of support from Li Ru here, and the meaning of cutting off food was not very significant, so the most likely reason was to go ahead.
Come to raid the rear camp and disrupt the Feiqian camp at the most critical moment.
So at the first moment, Fei Qian sent Gong Jun to the rear to set up a net and wait. If he could fight, he would fight. If he couldn't fight, he would try to delay the enemy army as much as possible. But he didn't expect how long the battle lasted.
The flag that the battle is over has been raised.
Li Ru coughed twice, stared at the flag on the mountain, pondered for a moment and said, "Could it be that he captured and killed the enemy's general? Since Gong Junhou has won, we can just ask him then..."
Li Ru had some understanding of Gong Jun, and was not a reckless person. Since the flag of war was raised and changed to blue after the war, something must have happened, but Li Ru
I don’t know what happened behind the scenes, so I can only make inferences based on conventional rules.
Hearing what Li Ru said, Fei Qian could only nod his head, and then focus on Han Sui in front of him.
After Han Sui was stimulated, he launched a series of offensives without hesitation. Although he broke through the first and second defensive lines deployed by Fei Qian, and even once reached the last line of the camp and car formation, it was already getting late.
, and once a night-long attack is carried out with fire, the soldiers holding torches high will undoubtedly become the best targets...
Therefore, we had no choice but to temporarily withdraw our troops.
The weather was quite good today. Han Sui began to reorganize his troops early in the morning, assuming a decisive attitude that he would resolve the battle today, and his momentum was quite scary.
Li Ru also set his sights on Han Sui's side, scanning the battlefield like an eagle, and suddenly smiled and said: "Han Wenyue, I can't hold myself back anymore..."
Li Ru stretched out two fingers and pointed at the Han Sui array at the bottom of the hillside.
The Qiang queue originally flanking Han Sui was obviously more scattered than yesterday, and the entire formation was also slightly further back. Standing on the battlefield, Han Sui might not be able to notice such a gap, but standing on the hillside
Li Ru and Fei Qian can naturally see this clearly.
"Han Wenyue has lost his military morale. If he loses his old hope, there will be no room for improvement..." Li Ru cast his gaze into the distance and said, "Calculating the time, there should be some changes in the past two days..."
"Change?" Fei Qian asked.
"Exactly." Li Ru nodded and said, "To rush to the rescue from Guanzhong, the leading army must be Wenhe, and Wenhe and I are both familiar with the terrain of Longyou, but they haven't arrived yet...either they returned in defeat, or there is something else.
arrange……"
"Wen He?" Fei Qian pinched the short beard on his chin, then shook his head and said, "Wen He never takes risks. If it is a small setback, it is possible, but he returns with a big defeat... Hmm...
…someone doesn’t believe it…”
Li Ru smiled hoarsely and said: "Haha, the general knows Wenhe's character well. Therefore, Wenhe must be planning something... However, the land of Qishan Mountain is obviously a four-way road, but it is a place of death. There is a general here on the south road.
, there are Wenhe and Shanggui in the north, Tietang Road in the east is a rugged mountain road that is difficult to navigate, and to the west..."
Li Ru looked into the distance, not noticing Han Sui's soldiers who were about to launch an offensive at all, but said leisurely: "...there are old Qin soldiers from Li Dian..."
…………………………
The old Qin soldiers also had a name. During the Qin Dynasty, they were called "sharp soldiers".
"Ruishi" were the selected and well-trained infantrymen of the Qin State during the Warring States Period. During the Qin Xiaogong period, Shang Yang's reform was to reward farming warfare and grant titles and land and houses according to military merit. The military was strong and the soldiers had strong combat effectiveness.
At that time, there were three infantry that dominated the world during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. One was the martial arts of Qi, the other were the martial soldiers of the Wei family, and the third was the warriors of Qin. However, "the martial arts of Qi cannot meet the martial soldiers of the Wei family, and the martial soldiers of the Wei family"
"You cannot meet the warriors of Qin." Although the warriors of Qin have been established for the shortest time, they are also the strongest.
But that doesn't mean that Qin's warriors have no natural enemies. When they faced Zhao's "Butterfly Knights", they would have a hard time. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been fighting with Zhao for so long. If it weren't for Zhao Kuo,
This guy killed a lot of soldiers of Zhao State. It is still unclear what kind of changes there were in the Warring States Period.
On top of Qin's warriors, there are also Iron Eagle warriors.
The Iron Eagle Warriors are the most elite troops in the Qin State. They not only need to have extraordinary swordsmanship, but also must be proficient in horse and foot combat. The selection of the Iron Eagle Warriors is extremely demanding. The first requirement is that they have excellent physical fitness and need to hold a weapon in their hands.
He carried a spear, twenty long arrows and a hard bow with iron tires on his back. He carried three days of army rations, full armor, a wide dagger, a fine iron dagger and a cowhide shield, which added to the total load of about eight
Only those who weigh more than ten kilograms and can immediately enter a fierce battle after running for a hundred miles continuously will be qualified.
Only those who have a strong physique and can pass the various examinations of infantry fighting, cavalry fighting, and formation fighting can be regarded as "iron eagle warriors". "One hundred thousand Qin soldiers will produce three thousand sharp soldiers." The new army of Qin State
Two hundred thousand, of which there are only 1,600 "Iron Eagle Warriors".
However, these "Iron Eagle Warriors" and ordinary warriors gradually disappeared into the dust of history with the fall of the Qin Dynasty. At present, only in the Mengshi Village, there are still soldiers who train such warriors.
The scholar's method...
However, methods are methods, just like a soldier who has never been in battle, no matter how much training he has undergone and how many excellent awards he has received, he is still a new recruit. These remaining elements have disappeared on the battlefield for three to four hundred years.
Can the sharp warriors still be as brave and powerful as the Qin Dynasty?
At Lidian, fifty miles west of Qishan Mountain, a military column was walking silently.
Although it has not rained anymore, the sky is not very bright. Occasionally, there will be mountains with moisture, swaying the grass and trees on the mountain ridges, making a sharp whistling sound, and suddenly the shadows of the trees are like charming cliffs and rocks, like mandrills.
.
Meng Hua was a little nervous, and the palms holding the weapon were sweating. Listening to the sound that sounded like whimpering and weeping when the wind passed through the woods, he felt that his heart was beating like a drum in his chest.
Boom boom.
Fear doesn't necessarily mean much, it's just nervousness. Fear means not wanting to go to the battlefield, it's a complete escape emotion, while nervousness means looking forward to going to the battlefield, but not knowing whether you can do it well, and worrying about gains and losses.
He had never experienced the upcoming battles and fights, so he was naturally a little nervous. He couldn't help but look ahead, and his throat felt a little dry.
"Afraid?"
Meng Shu, who was walking on one side, saw Meng Hua's expression, came to Meng Hua's side and asked.
Meng Shu looked straight ahead, his expression was calm, and his tone was extremely steady. He seemed to be asking about a very common thing. It seemed that he was already used to this kind of thing, and he was neither surprised nor surprised.
"No!" Menghua subconsciously denied it and said, "I didn't!"
"Yeah." Meng Shu responded, then patted Meng Hua on the shoulder, raised his head and said, "It is said that when we Mengshi went out to battle, we couldn't get much results..."
"Ah?" Menghua's attention was obviously diverted and he couldn't help but ask, "Why is this?"
Meng Shu laughed and said: "Because as soon as our Mengshi soldiers arrived on the battlefield, the other side started running... Killing the fleeing soldiers of the opponent can only count as half... Sometimes we can't kill the surrendered ones, you say we can
how many?"
Meng Hua didn't know whether it was true or not. He looked at Meng Shu with wide eyes and said, "Our ancestors are so powerful?"
"Of course!" Meng Shu replied categorically, "It's just because it's so powerful...forget it, you may not understand this now...when you go into battle, just follow me."
Meng Shu patted Meng Hua on the shoulder again and walked forward.
Unconsciously, the sweat in Menghua's hands seemed to disappear. Menghua watched Meng Shu's figure slowly move forward and walked under the battle flag with white characters on a black background.
This war flag with white characters on a black background once fluttered high in the Central Plains. It once drove out the Huns in the north of Yinshan Mountain. It once rolled and jumped in the yellow sand and waves of blood. It also once disappeared in the long river of history.
Now, it stands up again, unfolds in the wind, and dances between heaven and earth.
