Chapter 1568 How to make 30,000 surrendered troops become
"Kill!" Sha Po Lang's spear danced like a windmill. Just now Liu Hongji picked up his strong bow and shot an arrow at him.
Liu Hongji turned out to be a marksman, and this arrow knocked Sha Po Lang's helmet out of sight, shocking Sha Po Lang to death.
At this time, Sha Po Lang was disheveled and covered in blood. He didn't know whether it was the enemy's or his own. He had just stabbed the gun barrel violently, and when he was flying a cavalryman on the opposite side, the powerful impact caused the gun barrel to bend into an arc.
The shape was no longer usable. He cursed, threw away the spear in his hand, pulled out his sword, dodged a knife coming from the side, stretched out his hand to grab the enemy cavalry who was close at hand, and cut his throat with a smooth swipe.
, just after throwing away the body, a dark shadow flashed in front of his eyes, a spear was stabbed towards him, Shapolang screamed in fright, an iron bridge, his whole body folded back from the waist, the sword stretched out horizontally, and his legs fiercely
Clamping the horse's belly, the war horse neighed and sprang forward. Using the power of the horse, he dragged the sword beside him and cut the enemy open from the waist.
His nose passed over it, and the smell of blood could be clearly smelled.
When Sha Po Lang, who had just been on the verge of death, looked back, he realized that he was so addicted to killing that he had forgotten the cavalry tactics of the Far Eastern Army and had habitually killed too deeply. There were only more than a thousand cavalry left behind him, and the others
In the ocean that had already submerged the enemy cavalry, they had long been separated and fighting on their own.
"Brothers, throw grenades!"
Sha Po Lang remembered Wu Si's instructions to him, he got excited, cursed himself secretly, and roared.
As Sha Po Lang roared, the more than 4,000 Far Eastern Army cavalry who were still alive threw out all the last remaining grenade shells.
In the rumbling and earth-shattering explosion, although Liu Hongji and his party took precautions, more than a thousand people were killed directly.
"Retreat!" Taking advantage of the moment when Liu Hongji's offensive paused and a way out was opened, Shapolang quickly broke away from Liu Hongji's entanglement with more than a thousand of his cavalry who were too deep, and took four thousand
The remaining cavalrymen turned their horses and rushed towards their own defensive position.
When Liu Hongji saw that his cavalry had killed and injured more than 2,000 people, he became red-eyed and led his men to pursue them.
The circular formation suddenly opened a gap, Sha Po Lang and his men rushed in, facing ten hundred-shot crossbow chariots. Sha Po Lang and his party did not have any surprises, and without any pause, Sha Po Lang and his men rushed in from the gap between the chariots.
It rushed in through the gap.
Liu Hongji led more than 3,000 cavalrymen and was blocked. He couldn't see the crossbow chariots. However, he saw a gap in the Far East Army's circular formation to let Shapolang in. He couldn't help but be overjoyed. He shouted and accelerated forward, hoping to get in the circle.
Before the formation closed, I just happened to rush in and break through this damn defensive position.
Liu Hongji's idea is good, but the reality is cruel.
At fifty steps, Wu Si suddenly shouted: "Hundred-shot crossbow, prepare!"
At the sound of the order, not only did the gap in the defensive circle not close, but the soldiers on the periphery of the defensive circle within ten steps on both sides suddenly squatted down, exposing the ten hundred-shot crossbow chariots behind to Liu Hongji's eyes.
"shooting!"
The commander of the hundred-fire crossbow company gave an order, and the soldiers operating the machine turned the handle hard, and ten hundred-shot crossbows fired simultaneously.
At this moment, the sight of Liu Hongji, Wu Si, and all the soldiers of the Far Eastern Army and Li Jiajun on the scene was even blocked by the rain of arrows, and the continuous rain of arrows blocked the sky and the sun.
The hundred-shot fast crossbow is equipped with a powerful spring, coupled with armor-piercing iron arrows, and can be fired flatly at a distance of fifty steps. The killing power produced is extremely terrifying, just like cutting wheat. Liu Hongji, who is rushing at the front
One side of the cavalry fell down row after row, but the rain of arrows seemed to be endless.
In fact, each hundred-shot quick crossbow was only fired once. After one time, Wu Si shouted loudly: "You idiots don't stand up, so shoot them with the quick crossbow in your hand."
The soldiers of the Far Eastern Army in front of the circular formation quickly stood up and each fired another round of nine crossbow arrows with their quick crossbows.
Liu Hongji did not die because he screamed at the last moment and slid off the horse's back and got into the horse's belly.
But the horse that was shot to death pinned him down, making it impossible for him to get up for a while. He didn't dare to get out for a while, otherwise he would be shot into a hedgehog.
And after the initial fight with Sha Po Lang and the attack with hundreds of crossbows, nearly half of the five thousand cavalry he brought were dead. The remaining people were completely wiped out because they couldn't see Liu Hongji.
That scene was gone. He ran back with all his strength.
At this moment, the thunderous sound of horse hooves coming from the distance made them feel like they were falling into an ice cellar, and made Liu Hongji, who was still trapped under the horse, feel desperate.
On the snow in the distance, dark clouds of cavalry were rushing towards them. Looking at the rolling cavalry, they probably didn't number nearly 20,000.
What came was the Tornado Battalion led by Luo Shixin. He had just wiped out 20,000 cavalry led by Chai Shao. After taking a short rest, he came over quickly.
Liu Hongji still had nearly 40,000 people on his side at this time. In terms of military strength, it was almost the same as Wu Si's Pegasus Battalion and Luo Shixin's Tornado Battalion combined.
If Liu Hongji was in the army at this time and quickly formed a formation, it would be really difficult for the Far East Army to defeat them in a short time.
"Liu Hongji has died in the battle. You surrender and don't kill him."
"Liu Hongji has died in the battle. You surrender and don't kill him."
"Liu Hongji has died in the battle. You surrender and don't kill him."
Wu Si suddenly roared, and then asked hundreds of soldiers to shout this sentence continuously in unison.
When the cavalry led by Luo Shixin appeared, Li Yuan's group, which had little fighting spirit to begin with, began to panic, but they barely managed to survive under the scoldings of the Li family generals.
However, when it was reported that Liu Hongji had died in battle, and that Liu Hongji was not among the cavalry who escaped, and most of the soldiers did not know how many Far Eastern troops Luo Shixin had brought, under this situation, people could easily put their fears to rest.
Zoom in and think of the number of enemies as large as possible.
Therefore, the fighting spirit of the nearly 40,000 Li family soldiers disappeared in an instant. The generals could not control them at all, and many soldiers turned around and began to flee.
It's like a flood that has opened up and is out of control.
But two legs can outrun four legs. Suddenly, the Li family's army was defeated everywhere.
The so-called defeat was like a mountain, and Liu Hongji's entire army had collapsed.
Wu Si gave the order, and the men and horses of the Pegasus Battalion, who had been defending the camp for a long time, quickly mounted their horses, rushed out of the camp with strange screams unique to the horse thieves in the Western Regions, and started to start together with the Tornado Battalion led by Luo Shixin, one on the left and the other on the right.
Chase and kill Li Jiajun.
Half an hour later, more than 4,000 of Liu Hongji's troops were killed, and more than 3,000 were fled. The remaining 30,000 Li troops all dropped their weapons, squatted on the ground, and surrendered.
The men and horses of the Far Eastern Army's Tornado Battalion and Pegasus Battalion surrounded them in the middle, with their bows and crossbows cocked, aiming at them.
Liu Hongji was also found, captured alive and thrown aside alone.
After Luo Shixin and Wu Silue discussed it, the former suddenly said: "I'll wait for the officers above the captain to come out."
Immediately, more than 40 officers came out with a sigh of relief. As usual, they obviously had to be beaten and then relied on to control the troops.
However, when they all came out and stood in front of Luo Shixin and Wu Si, Wu Si gave them a cold look and said, "Kill them all."
As soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of crossbow arrows were fired at more than forty Li family officers. These Li family generals all fell to the ground before they had time to scream.
There was a commotion among the more than 30,000 Li soldiers squatting on the ground, but in the end no one dared to move under the threat of tens of thousands of crossbows.
"You must have heard that our Far Eastern Army is well paid and the people are living a good life. I will not force you to surrender. Now I will give you a chance. Anyone who wants to join my Far Eastern Army should squat down and stay still. If you don't want to join,
Yes, today I will give you a chance to leave on your own, and we will never stop you." Luo Shixin said.
After a while, more than 4,000 soldiers from the Li family army stood up and walked outside after hesitating for a while.
When these people walked more than ten steps and saw that they were not killed, they started running. At this time, Wu Si gave the order: "Kill them all."
Sha Po Lang, who was well prepared, gave a ferocious laugh and led his troops to charge forward.
After half a stick of incense, all the more than 4,000 Li family soldiers fell down, and no one escaped.
Next, Luo Shixin and Wu Si directly disrupted the formation of nearly 30,000 Li Yuan's soldiers on the spot and incorporated them into their respective armies.
Then, the two brought all the surrendered troops back to Luliang County and Xinkou County.
They have to garrison these two counties these days, and each of them has only 40,000 troops, so they are a little nervous. At this time, these troops can just make up for the lack of troops.
Of course, there will definitely be hidden dangers in these surrendered troops, but as long as they keep a close eye on them and disrupt their organization, making it difficult for the surrendered troops to connect in series or even see each other, over time some of their thoughts will gradually be digested.
Or select out some of them who are die-hard loyalists to the Li family, kill them all, and gradually eliminate the unstable factors.
In addition, people from the Military Intelligence Bureau, Wulin Guild, and Xiaoyu Theater will use various manpower and power to help them bring their families to these two counties and gradually stabilize their military morale.
In short, the Far East Army has a strict and feasible procedure for digesting this kind of surrendered troops. As long as this procedure is strictly followed, it will not take long to truly turn these 30,000 surrendered troops into their own army.
…………
…………
In the evening, Luo Shixin and Wu Si received the latest order sent by Wang Junlin via flying eagle.
Wang Junlin ordered them to stick to Luliang County and Xinkou County for the time being. A group of officials will come from Fanyang County through various channels in the near future to help them fully control these two counties. After the two counties are completely digested, according to the latest instructions,
Expand the territory further.
As for Wang Junlin's side, even though there were only more than 10,000 people and Li Shentong had a hundred thousand troops, Luo Shixin and Wu Si were never worried.
