The Art of War goes like this: Use the right combination to win by surprise. When the chariot can be lifted across Dangjin Mountain, that is the day when the partial division plays a decisive role as a surprise force.
In fact, the chariot is not heavy. This solution is not just a simple lifting of the chariot, but a chariot armed. This includes artillery, ammunition, and the number of fully armed soldiers equipped with the entire chariot...
·
The reason why the ability of chariots to cross Dangjin Mountain is used as a condition for whether they can go on an expedition is because soldiers riding chariots to cross Dangjin Mountain is the only way to solve the epidemic.
At this time, Wang Shao had to admire the officials' precautionary measures in sending engineering soldiers to accompany the army.
Watching the chariots filled with soldiers slowly ascending the mountainside of Dangjin Mountain, being hoisted again, and rising again... Wang Shao was full of confidence in the success of his partial division.
When the engineers reached the top, they creatively began to arrange pulleys on the top of the mountain. Then, on the other side of the top of the mountain, the load-bearing chariot was also hoisted and lowered, and a chariot was naturally hoisted up on this side...
·
Wang Shunchen still managed to get the first chariot, and it was their first team of pathfinders who crossed Dangjin Mountain as the first group.
When there is a Xixia garrison at the foot of another mountain in Jinshan, this is to be expected.
No one expected that the rumors about the officials' pursuit of immortality could really deceive the party members. It was just an excuse to mobilize troops, and it was enough for all the forces who were concerned about troop deployment to be skeptical.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the soldiers assigned to Dangjin Mountain by the partial division to behead forty or fifty levels in a few months.
Wang Shunchen was also prepared. Due to the epidemic, he went through the whole Dangjin Mountain. As the vanguard soldier, he did not make any effort and stayed in the chariot, letting his comrades hang around.
Unfortunately, the chariot cannot accommodate too many soldiers when it is fully equipped. Wang Shunchen and the others only have twelve people in the combat establishment of one chariot.
Who would have thought that the Dangxiang people would station so many cavalry at the foot of Dangjin Mountain.
I thought that the Dangxiang people would be just like them, and it would be enough to station a dozen people to guard it. After all, this is not the season for this passage to be passed.
Through the observation hole of the chariot, Wang Shunchen saw outside, a total of four to five hundred cavalry, waiting for them...
What's the point of this?
Wang Shunchen was not worried at all that a dozen of them would be hacked to death by Dang Xiang's cavalry... Being in the chariot was equivalent to guarding a shrunken city. There was no way for the cavalry to fight.
Unless the party members also have gunpowder...
Wang Shunchen was frustrated. He was frustrated that the first chariot he had fought for could not achieve success, but the Xixia cavalry stationed there were in a daze.
Can you not be in a daze?
The system of Xixia basically belongs to the sphere of influence of those tribes, and those tribes are responsible for garrisoning.
The party members on the sandbank, or the garrison troops of all the cities in the entire Hexi Corridor, have never been deployed to participate in the battle against the Song Dynasty...~There are only 30,000 to 50,000, which is the minimum guard force to defend the entire Hexi Corridor. The Xixia court has never
Considered using it.
It is also for this reason that when the sandbank defenders saw the chariot for the first time, or when the chariot slowly descended from the top of Dangjin Mountain, they almost knelt down and worshiped. How could they think of attacking?
That's it, Wang Shunchen and the others were in a daze in the chariot, waiting for the Xixia cavalry to attack...~
The Xixia cavalry, on the other hand, was confused by this incomprehensible reality and did not know what to do!
There's no one there, just a big, dark box...
Wang Shunchen and the others couldn't get out. A dozen people were fighting a few hundred people. They would only attack if they were stupid! Hiding in the chariot, a steady stream of comrades would be hung down and used as gold mountains...～
Perhaps after the party members launched the attack, they just used gunpowder bombs to defend the place where the chariot was hung.
So, there is a very strange scene!
"General Wang, shoot him! I'm tired of looking at him!"
At this distance, only Wang Shunchen could hit, and others could only watch.
"Why are you shooting? This is so good. Xixia people are kind and righteous teachers. If they don't like to use more to fight less, they will attack us. We have to cooperate, right?"
Wang Shunchen was also talking nonsense. The two sides were in a relationship where they would kill each other when they were alone. How could they talk about being benevolent and righteous teachers? He also didn't know what Dangxiang people meant and was a little confused. He couldn't grasp this situation.
The best option is to waste it.
Anyway, no one came around. It seemed that when the chariot landed, the Xixia cavalry retreated neatly. Is this polite?
What kind of teacher is this? The Xixia people were also confused. When this thing appeared from the top of the mountain, they began to form an array. As a result, there was not even a living thing like this. They didn't know what to do.
Also, hoisting can only transport chariots, but cannot transport live animals such as pack horses and camels. Due to the slope of Jinshan Mountain and the panic of the pack horses during dragging, it is too easy to cause damage to the livestock. Considering that there should be no damage to the sandbank,
Without the obedient habits of livestock, especially camels, it would just be like this.
By chance, the simple chariot lifting created a good situation for the transshipment.
There is a problem. There is only one pile driven and installed pulley at the top of the mountain. In other words, there is only one position where the hoisted chariot falls to Jinshan. This leads to the fact that each company of chariots has to wait until it reaches the foot of the mountain.
, everyone will say that the previous chariot is pushed forward...
Wang Shunchen kept moving forward regardless of being hit by the car behind him, he just passed through the lookout and stared at the reaction of the Xixia cavalry.
He found that every time a chariot got off and every time it moved forward, the Xixia cavalry actually moved back a little...
"They shouldn't be afraid, right?"
Wang Shunchen did not dare to think like this. He had fought several wars with Xixia, and the Xixia people were quite familiar with chariots. In the martial arts hall, the veterans once said that the Xixia people would definitely have some methods to deal with chariots...
····
There must be some trick, right? Wang Shunchen thought so again. Unfortunately, he was in the chariot now and could not communicate with other generals at all. He did not dare to act rashly. He just moved forward little by little, watching the Xixia people move forward little by little.
Back up.
This method of lifting is very clumsy. Dangjin Mountain is very large and the slope is very high. The soldiers operating on the top of Dangjin Mountain cannot stay at the top of the mountain for a long time and must be rotated constantly.
Therefore, for a whole day, only five tanks were transported to the other side of Dangjin Mountain, which is equivalent to the number of soldiers of a small team of Pathfinders. If they were facing horse bandits, road thieves and the like, perhaps
Wang Shunchen would consider killing them directly, but facing the Xixia cavalry, Wang Shunchen would not risk his death even if he was arrogant.
Since the Xixia people like to guard for their brothers, they might as well just spend it like this.
"We are on duty at night. If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move."
There is no way, Wang Shunchen has never seen such a strange thing.
······
"There wasn't a fight over there?"
Wang Shao didn't believe it when he heard what the engineering soldiers on duty at the top of the mountain said. The Xixia people didn't even garrison this place, right?
"Come back to Marshal, I really didn't hear any noise."
