Chapter 827: Disagreement
As soon as he thought of the sixth young master's trust in himself, the grievance in Yang Er's heart disappeared. "Yes, young master, I am completely obedient to your orders. Rest assured, the logistics team won't let you down, but... In this battle, I can arrange a deputy regiment commander to guard the city, and I can also follow you to the battle to kill you, young master. ”
"Nope." Yang Chendong once again rejected Yang Er. "This time, all the generals in the city who can fight have been sent out, and you are the only one left, you can't go, otherwise, something really goes wrong, and it will be a big event."
"Oh, I obey orders." Seeing that Yang Chendong said resolutely, Yang Er also knew the truth that was especially inferior, there were some things he could ask for advice once, but he definitely couldn't ask for instructions a second time.
The battle meeting was over, and the military camp outside Shicheng began to be quietly mobilized. In order to ensure that the military intentions of the other side were not known to the other side, the reconnaissance battalion was dispatched to block the area around the city for twenty miles, so as to ensure that no enemy scouts could approach the area and could spy on any movement of mercenaries.
Then, after a full day and a night of preparation, the next night, the divisions and regiments moved as planned, and in the middle of the night, a large number of cavalry rushed out of the barracks and headed straight for the capital city, two hundred miles away.
The cavalrymen did not carry anything more than their own weapons, and even the food on their bodies was only five days' worth of dry food, in order to ensure that their speed was faster. In this way, in the night, above the snow, you can see black shadows rushing by, and in the season when the snow has begun to melt, the cavalry does not have to worry about falling into the snow when running, so that they can play as fast as possible.
It is often said that horses travel thousands of miles a day and eight hundred at night, which is unrealistic, and there may be very special war horses that can do it, but this does not have a representative. However, as soon as it was dark, he set out, and by dawn on the second day, for nearly six hours, he traveled lightly and without any heavy supplies, and he could still travel 200 miles in one night.
That is, at dawn, twenty miles outside the capital, a large number of mercenary troops with five-star flags suddenly appeared, and they formed a fan-shaped encirclement, blocking the front and both wings. Seeing this, the scouts who were in charge of the reconnaissance work outside the city hurriedly returned to the city to report, and the cavalry in the city who got the news became chickens and dogs jumping for a while.
Of the 50,000 or 80,000 cavalry troops, only a few have not suffered losses at the hands of mercenaries, and most of them have been defeated more than once. Suddenly, an army of mercenaries overwhelmed the border, without warning, and you can imagine how panicked they were at this moment.
Not only the soldiers below, but also Agadorji and Hararuchu, father and son, who got the news, also got up from their beds in a panic, and rushed towards the palace of Sud Khan in the city while dressing.
By the time the two fathers and sons arrived here, Sud Khan was already seated in the hall, but his face was very bad, and it was obvious that he should have been frightened by the sudden news.
"What to do? How good is it that mercenaries suddenly besiege the city. Without waiting for his ass to sit on the chair, Agadorji began to ask Sud for advice, and it was obvious that he was really panicked at this moment.
Thinking that at the beginning, he was defeated by mercenaries with nearly 50,000 cavalry, and now the strength of the entire coalition army is only a little more than 50,000, and most of them are still some prisoners captured before to fill the army, which is much inferior to the elite he brings.
"Don't worry, wait for General Fan to talk." Su De was annoyed by the question, and pointed to the empty chair on the right, he really didn't have any ideas now, in his opinion, even if the mercenaries took the initiative to attack, they must have been prepared, and how to deal with the enemy in a hurry, he really didn't have any good opinions, and he could only wait for Fan Yuhai to appear and see what methods he had to deal with the enemy.
Aga Dorji here noticed that Fan Yuhai had not arrived, and his face couldn't help but sink, and he snorted coldly: "When is this here, why hasn't General Fan come yet?" What the hell is he doing? ”
"What? I'm afraid I haven't gotten up on the belly of any mother-in-law last night, haha. Hara Ruochu cooperated with his father to speak, and then there was a lewd expression on his face, as if he had fallen into some kind of imagination.
The performance of this wonderful father and son fell in Su De's eyes, and he shook his head helplessly, as far as he knew, Fan Yuhai was not good at this, at least during the time we were together, I didn't hear that this person had such a preference. But the mercenary has already appeared outside the city, and he has not appeared yet, which is indeed something that should not be.
The wait always seemed long, and after about another pillar of incense, Fan Yuhai, who was dressed in armor, came late. As soon as he entered the hall, Hara Ruo's sarcastic voice came out, "General Fan is so busy, I thought you wouldn't appear until the enemy broke through the capital." ”
Fan Yuhai didn't stop, as if he hadn't heard this sarcastic voice, he came to the chair on the right and sat down, nodded to Su De and Agadorji successively, and said hello, as for Hara Ruo, who didn't even have a seat and needed to stand and speak, he didn't even look at it, as if this person didn't exist.
At this moment, he was so angry that he was angry, and the feeling of being ignored made him angry, so he wanted to continue to ridicule, but at this time, Su De, who was in the first place, had already spoken: "General Fan, there is a mercenary outside the city, you know, but I don't know if there is a countermeasure?" ”
"Well, I know, I went up to the city wall just now to take a look, and it was indeed mercenaries from outside the city, and this time the god of war also came in person." Fan Yuhai nodded, the reason why he came late was not because he didn't get up from bed, but because he went to the city wall first and learned about the situation before coming.
Listening to Fan Yuhai say that he had already understood some of the situation, Su De nodded with satisfaction, this is what a famous general does, not the kind of villain who will only stand there and sarcastically mock others, and once he goes to the battlefield, he is useless for nothing. It's just that the big war is imminent, and this kind of thought is just a flash, when Su De heard that Yang Chendong was also here, he asked with a little god in his expression: "Is the God of War also here?" Can you be sure? ”
"That's right, the banner that belongs to the god of war has been raised, and in a big battle like this, there is no reason for him not to show up even if he is in the grassland." Fan Yuhai didn't look far in his hands, he couldn't see that far, but with his intuition, he believed that this old opponent must be among the mercenaries outside the city.
Seeing that what Fan Yuhai said was so affirmative, Su De's face changed again and again, "Even the god of war is here, presumably they are bound to win the capital city, so what should we do." ”
"Of course it's a hit." Fan Yuhai blurted out, as if he was talking about an extremely ordinary thing.
Indeed, it was a bit of a surprise to him that the mercenaries had appeared so quickly, and that they had only been able to make a comeback in just seven days since their last defeat. In his opinion, the most important thing to do after this heavy blow is to recuperate and prevent them from attacking Shicheng, where will he take the initiative to attack others?
But the god of war is the god of war, and what he does is always so unexpected. It has to be said that the sudden appearance of the mercenary also caught Fan Yuhai off guard, and even now he didn't understand what this god of war was thinking. can figure out what the other party thinks, and it will not delay the decision to fight with it.
"Hit? That's the god of war, can we fight it? Agadorji spoke, but this mouth weakened his own morale first. It can be seen that he is really scared by this person.
Sud didn't stop Agadorji from saying such a thing this time, in fact, why shouldn't he worry? He lost two battles with the god of war, and was chased thousands of miles by others at the worst time, and fled to the northwest of the Yuma River, all of which can prove his bottom thoughts.
"Why can't you beat it? The god of war is also a human being, and he can be injured if he is hit by an arrow, and he can also take his life when he is slashed by a saber, and he is no different from us. In addition, our forces are obviously several times superior to the opponent's, and with our main defense, they are the main attack, which makes it impossible for the muskets to give full play to their maximum advantage, but they can fight in one battle. Fan Yuhai said his own decision, and also said his own basis, and then his eyes fell on Su De's body, obviously asking this person to make the final decision.
"This..."Su De, who was a little evasive, did not answer Fan Yuhai's question immediately, but turned his gaze to the direction of Agadorji and asked, "Lord Agado, what do you think of this matter?" ”
"Uh..." Agadorji wanted to express his position immediately, but Fan Yuhai on the other side had already replied first: "Khan, Lord Agado, we can't hesitate, if we want to flee just because the mercenaries appear, then when can we defeat them?" Besides, in the last war, we have proved ourselves and that mercenaries are not invincible. If we retreat without a fight this time, I am afraid that there will be no chance of victory from now on, will we always have to live a life of hiding and hiding in the future? Is it like a mouse in the dark for a lifetime? ”
Fan Yuhai had to interject, otherwise once Agadorji made a statement, then this battle would really be useless, and I was afraid that he would really have to withdraw from the army.
It has long been heard that the Mongols eat meat, and the Central Plains people eat grass. Those who eat grass can't beat those who eat meat, but as soon as he came here, Fan Yuhai realized that the truth was not what he imagined at all. Everything turned upside down, and when the once beautiful steppe cavalry heard the name of the mercenary, they were so frightened that their legs were weak, and they were already three points frightened before they fought.
