【0540 Sneak Attack on Liaoyang City】
Wei Bao thought for a while and said, "I haven't fought, I don't know, but, I guess, one Jiannu cavalry is worth seven or eight of our cavalry!" ”
"Such a big gap? Is the gap between cavalry and infantry greater? Wang Qiuya was a little unconvinced.
"Well, I'm still a conservative estimate, it's possible to be worth more than a dozen of our cavalry! The test of cavalry is the unity of men and horses, they have lived on horseback since they were young, how long have our cavalry been trained? Even riders with better equestrian skills are trained after adulthood, and they are proficient in equestrianism in their bones, which cannot be compared! Wei Bao said with a cold face.
"Then it will be difficult for us to fight, our strength is not superior to Jiannu, and the individual ability is still so different. Without grenades, you can't fight. Wang Qiuya sighed faintly.
"Now you know it's hard to fight? So don't be rejoicing. Wei Bao said: "However, fighting a war is not only about military strength, the main thing about fighting a war is money and food, and in this regard, we have an advantage over Jiannu!" Because Jiannu is also short of food, no matter how much gold and silver there is, it is nonsense that you can't buy food! ”
After Wei Bao finished speaking, he breathed a sigh of relief, secretly a little proud, believing that no one in the world would have thought that he would be able to get so much grain from North Korea.
Five days passed in a flash.
This time, Lin Wenbiao did not go to Liaoyang in person, and has been following the president.
Under normal circumstances, when Lin Wenbiao reaches the level of director of the General Administration of Statistics, he absolutely does not need to charge into battle in person.
Unless it's like the last time he was in Beijing, President Wei is also in the local area, he is also in the local area, and he is obviously above the stationmaster of the Beijing Division's Statistics Bureau! will be commanded by him personally.
This time, President Wei was in Beixunkou and did not leave, and the battle plan for the sneak attack to capture Liaoyang was naturally completed by the head of the Liaonan Station.
One hundred operatives were selected from the entire Liaonan Station, and not a single army man was useless.
Because President Wei thinks that sneak attacks mainly depend on how well the drama is performed, and it has little to do with military strength.
Moreover, urban sneak warfare is also a specialty of the agents, who are more familiar with the streets of the town, which is the environment in which they live for a long time.
Most of the army training is in the field, and in an environment with many houses, it is possible that you can't find the north after a few turns.
Although President Wei asked to launch an attack in five days, he did not issue a death order, but only an order for a period of time, and the specific time for action could be arranged by the operation personnel below.
Because the number of defenders in Liaoyang City fluctuated relatively large and regular, usually fluctuating between 300 and 1,200 people, it was necessary to wait for the opponent to have three or four hundred people.
At this time, the number of people in the military camp of Jiannu was quite small, and most of the people were on the city wall.
There are no most people, although the military discipline of Jiannu is good, but in the case of two shifts, it should be one hundred and seventy or eighty people on duty at the city wall, and one hundred and seventy or eighty people stay in the barracks to sleep.
And half of the one hundred and seventy or eighty people on duty in the city wall will be in a state of laziness and napping, but they are also napping in the various houses on the city gate.
In other words, only about ninety people were on duty with wide eyes.
Among the 90 or so people, there will be 40 or 50 people on the sides of the four city gates, and there are actually only forty or fifty people on the city wall.
Liaoyang City is not small, forty or fifty people guard the city wall, in fact, many places are empty, and there is even no one at a distance of 100 meters on some city walls.
There were many people on the fifth day, so the stationmaster of Liaonan Station temporarily postponed the attack and put it on the sixth day.
The floating armies that went back and forth were mainly grain armies and some regularized, regularly changing local cavalry.
Because of the small number of defenders and the small number of troops, and in order to prevent soldiers from slacking off in one place for a long time, Jiannu often makes this kind of transfer, which is a very scientific method of leading troops.
Daming will not, if Jiannu's iron cavalry is a group of jackals, Daming's border army is a bit like a lamb, lazy and lazy, and can stay in one place for a lifetime.
The head of the Liaoning South Station of the Bureau of Statistics chose to launch the first attack in the area of the South Gate after he and several middle and senior special workers under him.
Why say mouth, and not say such units as waves, wheels, and times.
It's because the people from the census office are in the city, and it's broad daylight, like a man preparing to nibble on a piece of cake.
There were only five men near the south gate, plus five soldiers on the city wall, adding up to ten.
It is the weakest city wall among the four city walls, which was actually investigated at the time, and the special operations of the Statistics Office are generally more temporary, unlike the army, which is more advanced to formulate operational deployments, and the operations of the Statistics Office are generally small in scale, so there is no need to think too widely.
Contrary to what is expected, DSEC operations are usually not held at night, but during the day, because it is easy to get close to the city gate during the day!
The city gate is also a blind spot on the city wall, and unless there is a loud shout, the people on the city wall cannot see what is happening next to the city gate.
More than 100 agents of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Bureau were divided into two groups, one group was in charge of monitoring the Jiannu military camp in the city, and the other group was responsible for guarding the city wall.
Leaving a group of people to monitor the Jiannu military camp is to prevent the sneak attack on the city gate from missing, alarming the Jiannu soldiers in the city, if the more than 300 or nearly 400 Jiannu are prepared to fight, the action team agents of the Statistics Bureau will definitely not be able to defeat them.
It is not a problem for more than 50 people to build these ten slaves at the south city gate, even if they attack it by force, the key is to make no sound, finish the south city gate, and then finish the three city gates in the east, west and north together.
At this time, Huang Taiji was not in Liaoyang City, and in addition to a town guard general in Liaoyang City, the highest-ranking officer was a Jia Lae Zhen.
For every 300 people, there is 1 cow record, and the cattle record is really 1 person.
"Stop." A squad leader of Jiannu, who was guarding the door, shouted.
More than a dozen agents from the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics came dressed as construction workers, each carrying hammers and shovels, which could be used as tools for attack.
The reason why this is necessary is mainly because Jiannu's strength is extraordinary, and he is afraid that he will not be able to kill it with his bare hands!
"Uncle, we are here to strengthen the city wall, and we are the people of the Heaven and Earth Merchants." The lead DSS agent said.
The reason why we are no longer shy away at this time is because if we really fight, the Heaven and Earth Society will no longer need to disguise!
As soon as the captain of the Jiannu squad heard about the Heaven and Earth Society, he immediately relaxed his vigilance, and it was not surprising that the area controlled by Jiannu was full of people from the Heaven and Earth Society, digging and building roads, and sometimes repairing the city walls as requested.
"We haven't heard? Who asked you to come? The captain of the Jiannu squad was a little puzzled.
At this time, the agents of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics had already come closer, and the leading agent smiled: "We don't know, it seems that the general of the town guard asked someone to bring a message to our shopkeeper this morning, and our shopkeeper called us over, and our people under us only work, where do we know so much?" ”
The captain of the Jiannu squad nodded, "Since it's the general's intention, let's do it!" However, our walls are in good condition, huh? Where are you going to fix it? This gate was a little stumbling when it was closed, did you come to repair the city gate? ”
"The city gate also needs to be repaired, and an arrow tower should be added to the city wall, so that you can see farther." The lead agent of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics dealt with it easily, and it was still very easy and simple to fool a low-level Jiannu.
The captain of the Jiannu squad snorted and no longer doubted, "You guys do it yourself!" ”
The leading agent of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics snorted and beckoned about twenty people to repair the city gate at the bottom, and the remaining twenty or thirty people followed him up to the city wall!
In less than a minute, the ten Jiannu above and below the city died quietly and were moved to the hidden house on the city tower with a quick speed.
Liaoyang City is not small, but there are only three or four thousand residents, most of them are still mobile, Jiannu and Mo Nan merchants are big households, and most of the others are Han and Mongolian slaves, and Han slaves are the majority.
There were no people coming and going at the gates, but they never stopped coming and going.
Some people saw the Jiannu soldiers being killed and dragged away, but there was no movement, no shouting, and the few people they saw just left quickly.
The lead agent of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics did not pay attention to the witnesses.
Another minute later, the lead agent of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics left a team of five people to guard the walls of the southern city and led the others to the other gates.
They feigned to decorate the city and pass it on the city walls, which would not arouse suspicion.
When they arrived at the city wall of the east city, the soldiers of the city wall also asked as usual, and they said that they had just repaired the city wall from the south city, and checked whether the city wall of the east city should be repaired, and then first solved the people on the city wall quietly, and then went down to the city wall and killed the Jiannu on the side of the city gate.
Whether it is a dozen or more than 20 people, the three sections of the city wall and the three city gates in the east, west and north have not been accidental.
Compared to robbing things, the treasure army is professional, and compared to sneak attack, the treasure army is also professional.
There is no need to even dispatch the regular army, and the special operations team of the Statistics Office can do all the work of the army beautifully.
Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that the cities of this era were generally small.
Even though Liaoyang City is an important town in southern Liaoning and the largest city, it is only the township level of the third-tier small places in later generations.
After all the walls and gates were resolved, nearly ninety agents gathered outside the barracks, except for the more than twenty agents who remained on the walls and by the gates.
At this time, less than half an hour had passed since the first move was made at the southern gate.
Now it only needs to be solved by nearly 200 Jiannu in the military camp, and Liaoyang will be in hand!
The military camp is a big problem, and the military camp of Jiannu is still very closely checked, and there are some acquaintances who come and go.
The system of Jiannu is not huge, unlike when the Bao Army attacked the Hejian Mansion Water Division Camp outside Hejian Mansion, pretending to be in the name of the Jingshi Jinyi Guard, and they all wore the clothes of the Jinyi Guard, the people of the Hejian Mansion Water Division Battalion did not recognize a few Jinyi Guards at all, so it was difficult to distinguish the authenticity from the fake, and the Jiannu was different.
There is no way to disguise himself as a slave, so the stationmaster of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Bureau simply does not take this risk.
If you can't get in, you will attack directly, they are ready for fire attacks and street battles, anyway, they don't fight head-on, they know the ability of Jiannu!
These nearly 200 Jiannu are not easy to mess with.
Originally, in the beginning, there were two options in terms of attack time, either at night or during the day, the day was beneficial for attacking the Jiannu of the city walls and gates, and the night was beneficial for attacking the Jiannu military camp.
Later, after weighing it, it was decided to attack during the day.
Because it is difficult to sneak into the Jiannu military camp at night, and after the fight, it will alarm the Jiannu on the city wall, and the Jiannu can seal the city, and then send fast horses to the nearby Anshan or Tianshui Station to transfer troops, and then it will be troublesome.
Therefore, attacking during the day and taking the walls and gates first is obviously more advantageous to the members of the DSS team than to attack at night.
The head of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics personally went out this time, and after arranging points in several advantageous places outside the Jiannu military camp, he took a few people over and asked to see the Jiannu Jia Laezhen who was guarding the camp.
"What are you asking to see?" The leader of the Jiannu squad guarding the camp gate asked.
"We are a heaven and earth firm, and when we work in this area, we often trouble the general and you military masters, and send some filial piety to the general." The head of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics smiled and raised a crockpot in his hand.
"What's in there?" The leader of the Jiannu squad guarding the camp gate asked.
"It's a little bit of a thing." The stationmaster of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics made a gesture of silver.
There are two layers in the clay pot, the upper layer is really covered by a little bit of broken silver, and the bottom is all fried and poisonous mist solids!
The captain of the Jiannu squad guarding the camp gate asked to see it, and the head of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Bureau gave it to him.
The captain of the Jiannu squad guarding the camp gate didn't find any problems, and looked at the head of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Bureau and the dozen or so agents he brought, feeling that there was no problem, and frowned: "You wait!" I'll go inside and help you go. ”
The stationmaster of the Liaonan Station of the Statistics Bureau agreed with a smile, and had already pulled out a short blade from his back and stabbed it, right in the chest and abdomen of the Jiannu squad leader who was guarding the camp gate.
The rest of the Jiannu guarding the camp gate were suddenly in chaos, and someone instinctively howled: "There are spies! ”
At this time, the agents of the Statistics Bureau who had been ambushed in advance rushed out and fired a crossbow arrow, shooting more than a dozen Jiannu to death!
The military camp in the city of Jiannu is two-gate, and the agents of the Statistics Bureau are also left at the back door, and this set of operations is also carried out at the same time as the law.
In addition to the attack on the Jiannu military camp, more than a dozen people were left behind to guard the yamen of Liaoyang City.
It was usually the residence of Huang Taiji and his sister Cong Gulen Gege.
Now that Huang Taiji is not there, Cong Gulen Gege and more than a dozen guards are in the mansion, and there are still hundreds of servants left.
The government of Liaoyang City will wait until the war in the entire Liaoyang City is over, and finally eat hard.
The agents of the Liaonan Station of the Bureau of Statistics, who attacked the front and rear gates of the Jiannu barracks, succeeded almost simultaneously on both sides, and then launched an attack at the Jiannu barracks at the same time while throwing grenades and incendiary solids.
All of a sudden, the explosion of the Jiannu military camp was heard in all directions, and it burned into flames!
In order to ensure the rapid success of the operation, the Liaoning South Station Action Team of the Bureau of Statistics did not hesitate to spend money this time, and almost used all the consumable weapons that could be used.
The battle in the Jiannu military camp was fierce, and the entire Liaoyang City could hear it, but no one came to check, and the people on the street ran away in an instant, and those who had a place to live hid back to their residences, and every household closed their doors.
Those who did not have a place to live would find a hidden place in the alley and curl up, never daring to come out and cause trouble.
This is the power of people's hearts, if this kind of attack happened in Weijiazhuang, everyone in Weijiazhuang would have passed a long time ago, and they would gather more and more!
Because it was daytime, most of the Jiannu were awake in the barracks, and training was impossible.
When the explosion sounded, they came out one after another, and under the beating of those who couldn't find the north, most of them died almost without the strength to fight back!
The remaining 80 or 90 Jiannu did not dare to resist head-on, and found a place to escape, preparing to dodge the fire attack and then counterattack.
At this time, it reflects the courage of Jiannu and the strength of individual combat ability!
If it had been replaced by the Ming army, it would have been captured at this time, or it would have been slaughtered!
Any Ming army!
It can be said that any Ming army must be helpless under a sudden attack of this intensity.
Whether it is the border army of Liaodong, or the army of Jiliao, or the Beijing camp, or the Jinyiwei of the Beijing division or Dongcheng or something, not to mention the army of Shandong, Shanxi, and some peripheral areas of Henan, not to mention the Ming army of Nanzhili, the emperor is far away, it is all decoration, and it is really a fight, it is completely the rhythm of the scarecrow.
Jiannu is different, after the initial panic, Jiannu is not in good clothes, but he can break through bravely!
They are inseparable from their knives, desperately rushing to the fence outside the barracks, to rush out of the fence, rush to the city Xu Tu to fight again, Xu Tu to save his life, Xu Tu rushed out of Liaoyang City to report the news!
Naturally, the people of the Liaoning South Station Action Team of the Statistics Bureau will not give them this kind of opportunity.
Because they were prepared for poisonous smoke, everyone prepared wet cloth towels contaminated with antidote substances! There are certain advantages in pyrotechnics.
But even so, more than a dozen Jiannu escaped from the barracks fence and rushed to the city, and several members of the Liaoning South Station Action Team of the Bureau of Statistics who had been ambushed in advance in a favorable position on the periphery could not stop them from firing arrows.
Obviously, those who can escape from the barracks in such a chaotic scene must be good at building slaves.
These eight escaped Jiannu, each of them is extraordinary, rolling and climbing on the ground, not to mention flying eaves and walking on the wall, one or two meters high wall, one hand can fly up, and crossbow arrows can't catch up at all.
The stationmaster of the Liaoning South Station of the Bureau of Statistics hurriedly chased after all the people of the action team!
Street fighting is the strength of the Liaoning South Station of the Statistics Bureau, and the main attack training that the agents receive is generally aimed at towns and buildings.
However, agents with superior numbers, and specially trained agents, do not have much advantage in street chase.
Only one of the eight agents was killed, and the remaining seven fled to the Yamen of Liaoyang City, where they joined up with a dozen Jiannu soldiers there! There were also many Manchu slaves and Han Chinese slaves.
There were at least forty Manchu adult men in the Yamen of Liaoyang City, and there were twenty or thirty adult men who were Han slaves who were taken hostage, so the garrison was not weak.
"Stationmaster, what now? Set fire to this government, right? I'm not afraid that they won't come out! A senior agent said.
