Chapter 1660 Babner - Delusional counterattack with cavalry? Dream
"Check!" "Check!" were heard twice in succession, and the two heads fell to the ground, and the blood splashed out and sprayed far away. But almost no one watched this execution scene. All the soldiers fought hard to fight the enemy. Only
The two messengers picked up the heads with long spears, and while galloping behind the formation, they shouted loudly: "Azamu and Bohayi disobeyed General Harun's order and actually escaped on the battlefield. They will be executed!"
"General, is it too harsh to kill two of them and chop off their heads?" At the same time, an officer stood next to Harlan, with a look of intolerance on his face and said.
.
"Otherwise, how can we hold the position!" Harlan glanced at the two heads, then turned to look ahead, and said with a gloomy expression: "In less than an hour, two lines of defense were lost in a row, leaving only
The last line of defense can be defended. If this line of defense is lost again, it will be completely lost. The Ming army will be able to enter the camp, and this battle will be defeated, and it will be defeated by me! I absolutely cannot accept this happening.
!So we must encourage the soldiers to fight to the death and stop the Ming army! Kill the two of them and other soldiers who dare to escape, so that the soldiers will know that even escaping without fighting hard is a capital crime, so they will not dare not fight hard!"
The person who persuaded him was silent for a while. Of course he knew that it was very important now. The army led by Salha had already made a breakthrough in Zhu Zhijun's camp, and they were about to completely break through the camp and annihilate Zhu Zhijun. In this situation, if he was told in person
If the army seizes the defense line and breaks into their own camp, it will not only be a failure of the plan to encircle and annihilate Zhu Zhi's soldiers, but the entire army, more than 100,000 people, will be trapped in the dilemma of being attacked from both sides, and may even be annihilated. Therefore, Harun must block the Ming Dynasty in front of him.
military.
"Speaking of which, we cannot entirely blame the officers for their poor command. The soldiers were greedy for life and afraid of death. The combat effectiveness of this Ming army was too strong. Not only was it very violent when attacking, but it also had excellent tactical control. This is the first time I have fought with such an army.
, our soldiers were completely unfit and were stunned almost instantly." After a while, someone excused the soldiers.
"I think so too. This Ming army is very powerful in combat, far superior to our soldiers. If you have fought with such a powerful army before, you can still be prepared. If you are completely unprepared for the first fight, you can't blame it for fighting like this.
soldiers."
"It's true. It's not that the soldiers don't work hard in the battle. These soldiers fought against the Ming army in the north the day before yesterday and were not at a disadvantage at all. But to fight like this today, it is really that the Ming army is too powerful. Back then, Tiemu
I have almost never lost a battle in my campaigns in the north and south, and I don’t think I have an army with such a strong combat effectiveness under my command.”
"If you want to know the answer, you can only ask General Salha. He commanded the most elite force of ten thousand people under Timur. However, he may not tell the truth and he will not get the real result."
While everyone was discussing and excusing the soldiers, they heard Harun yell again: "Stop talking! Even if the Ming army in front of you is very powerful, you can't build up the enemy's ambition and destroy your own prestige!"
"Yes, General." Everyone fell silent and turned to look at the fight between the enemy and our troops directly in front.
But although Harun told others to stop talking, he couldn't help but think about it in his heart. Of course he had never served as a general under Timur, but he was from Delhi. Fifteen years ago, Timur attacked the Delhi Sultanate.
He had fought with Timur at that time, and had seen the elite troops under Timur. Compared with the Ming army in front of him, they seemed to be inferior. He suddenly felt a little scared, and couldn't help but keep strengthening in his heart: 'Even if
You are far more powerful than the soldiers under my command, but this is just an accident. The great Tianfang cultists will definitely be able to form a stronger army than you. It is just because all the Tianfang cultist countries are too weak now and there is no way to unite tens of thousands of them.
The soldiers are all trained to be such elite soldiers. If the countries of Tianfang believers, even the countries in India ruled by Tianfang believers, can be unified and establish a strong country, they will definitely be able to establish the Biming Kingdom Shangzhiwei with the blessing of God.
A stronger army.'
He thought silently in his mind for a while, and seemed to have believed what he was thinking. Then he raised his head, looked forward, and commanded the soldiers who saw the retreating people being executed and fighting desperately with the Ming people.
But even if the soldiers fought desperately, they were still no match for the Ming army. It often took more than ten people to deal with three or five Ming people. The Ming army opened gaps in the defense line many times and relied on the lives of the soldiers to fill them.
The gap is recaptured and the defense line is in danger.
At this point, Harun had no other choice but to keep ordering the officers to hold on and not retreat. At the same time, he kept sending people to Salha for help. This call for help was indeed embarrassing, but it was better than losing the defense line to the enemy.
It is better to leave. According to his estimation, although he is trying his best to encircle and annihilate Zhu's men, Salha must still have a reserve team that has not been put into the battlefield. It is impossible to send all of this reserve team to him, but as long as he can send a few thousand people
, he could fill the gap until Zhu's men were surrounded and annihilated. But what he didn't expect was that Salha would actually give him such an order.
"What, Salha not only wants to block this Ming army, but also launches a counterattack?" Looking at the face of the messenger, Harun said in disbelief.
"Yes, General Harlan, General Salha will send the cavalry commanded by General Basel to the battlefield, attack the rear of the Ming army, repel them, or at least hold them back." The messenger said again.
"Why did General Salha make such a decision?" Harun asked the messenger again.
"After receiving General Harlan's request for help, General Salha planned to send General Asim to lead troops to rescue, but General Basel thought that this was a good opportunity to counterattack. General Basel led all cavalry.
In the past three days, he had not been able to fight because he had no use of cavalry to attack the Ming army's camp in the north, but he had always wanted to lead troops to fight. He heard that the Ming army in the south had no camp and was said to be elite, so he wanted to defeat them and established a
General Salha agreed." The messenger replied.
"This," Harlan didn't know what to say for a moment. His intuition told him that the total number of cavalry led by Basel was only more than 6,000 people. Even if their combat effectiveness was the same as that of the Ming Dynasty's elite, they might not be able to defeat the Ming army of more than 20,000 people.
What's more, the combat effectiveness is probably not as good as that of the Ming army, and this counterattack will definitely fail. But he also harbors the hope that Basel can win. In this entanglement, he did not say anything to the ordering soldiers and acquiesced.
accepted Salha’s arrangements.
"General, General Basel may not necessarily fail. The Ming army is attacking our army fiercely. Suddenly a cavalry rushes out from the side. It is probably too late to guard against it. Our army can win." An aide next to him saw Harlan's thoughts.
said to him.
"I hope, I hope Basel can win." Harlan said. But he was thinking: 'What if Basel loses?'
…
…
"General Lin Shen really has the talent of a general. He commanded the Habayashi left guard and Kingo's avant-garde, whom he had only met a few times, and defeated the Yinlu army like lightning. He captured two of their lines of defense and was about to capture the third line of defense.
As expected of General Lan, he will definitely become the leading general of the Ming Dynasty in the future." Yun Zhi did not hesitate to praise Lin Yurong with a smile.
It's true that he performed too well just now. Lin Yurong only stayed with the Habayashi left guard and Jinwu avant-garde for three to five days. He had never seen these two guards fighting before, but only heard from Yunzhi and the two commanders.
, actually made such a wonderful command, fully bringing out the combat effectiveness of the two top straight guards, and fully worthy of Yun Zhi's praise.
However, he himself still answered very calmly: "Your Highness is ridiculous. Before I became a general in the Yue domain, I served as a soldier in the Yulin Left Guards. Later, I was promoted to a hundred households and a thousand households. I am very familiar with the superior guards, so I can command on the battlefield."
."
"You can also see for yourself that the method of fighting in the Zhiwei today is completely different from that of your time. It is not as good as the one who once served as a general in Habayashi Zuowei and can command it so well." Yun Zhi retorted.
"Nowadays, the method of fighting with the superior Zhiwei, although it has not been formed when the inferior official was still at the Habayashi Zuowei, has begun to change like this. The inferior official can still catch one or two." Lin Yurong said. Seeing Yunzhi want to speak again, he hurriedly said
: "Furthermore, Your Highness, we have not captured the third line of defense yet, so we should not be careless. I should pay attention to the movements of the seals."
"The Indians are about to lose their third line of defense, what else can they do?" Guo Lan, the commander of the Yulin left guard, said. He didn't want to praise Lin Yurong, but Lin Yurong's command was so good that he couldn't say anything. There had been no words just now.
Talk. But when I heard him say this, I couldn't help but say something thorny in my words.
"Xiaoguan believes that the Indians will not be willing to lose their defense line and will definitely take action. According to Xianguan's guess, there are about three possibilities. One is to send troops to support; the other is to build another defense line behind.
Continue to defend after this line of defense is captured; third, send troops, especially cavalry, to counterattack."
"What a joke! The Indians were beaten and retreated, and they saw with their own eyes how powerful our army was, so why did they fight back?" Guo Lan said immediately.
"Commander Guo, only the Indians in front of us have seen the combat power of our army. The Indian general Salha has not seen with his own eyes the combat effectiveness of Yulin's left guard and Jinwu's avant-garde. Especially according to rumors, he was once a general under Timur.
His impression of the Naobei's combat power was still at the time of the Battle of Igo. Even if other generals told him that the Kaminaowei's combat power was stronger, he might not believe it and would still send troops and generals according to his impression of the Kaminaowei's combat power.
So I think that Salha may send cavalry to counterattack." Lin Yurong said.
Of course Guo Lan didn't believe it. Just as he was about to say more, he suddenly felt another vibration in the ground beneath his feet. At this time, there were more than 40,000 horses running back and forth here. It was normal for the ground to shake. But this vibration was extremely uniform, which was unusual.
Everything was normal. They were about to look around when a guard suddenly ran in, bowed to Yunzhi and said: "Your Highness, there are Yinlu cavalry to the west and they are attacking our army! There are at least five thousand troops!"
"Yinlu really dares to fight back?" Another commander exclaimed.
Yun Zhi also wanted to shout this, but after hearing his shout she calmed down and immediately said to Lin Yurong: "General Lin Shen, you just expected this situation, are you prepared?"
"I am prepared."
"That's good! Gu Ming, you lead the troops to defeat this Indian cavalry immediately!"
"Yes, Your Highness." Lin Yurong agreed, straightened the collar of his armor, straightened his helmet, bowed to Yun Zhi and then left.
"You want to personally lead the troops into battle to kill the enemy?" Yun Zhi hurriedly stopped him and asked doubtfully.
"Yes, Your Highness."
"Well, why don't you stay here and take command?"
"Your Highness, a cavalry battle is not like an infantry battle. The battle is very fast. I am afraid that I will not be able to respond quickly if I am commanding here. What's more, the Indians in front of me have been almost defeated by our army and have lost their defense line. There is no need for me to continue to command."
"That's true. But," Yun Zhi looked him up and down again. Although she felt that he was not like a general like Guan Zhang Zhao who could personally command the army, but more like a commander in the rear like Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, but what he said
It made sense, so he agreed: "I will stay here alone, waiting for General Lin's good news."
"Yes, Your Highness." Lin Yurong agreed again. But at the same time, he was thinking in his heart: 'After a while, Your Highness, just don't resent me.'
