Chapter 1085: General Attack

With the sound of snare drums and the red flag like the sea, the officers and men of the Li Jiajun have completely gotten rid of their exhaustion after a few days of repair, and their mental state is extremely full.

At the forefront of the offensive sequence were the sword and shield men of the infantry army, followed by the artillery corps, including the 12-pounder guns, followed by more than a hundred return cannons and improvised trebuchets attached to the artillery corps.

The crossbowmen hid in the attacking ranks, and behind them were Li Zhongyi's guards army.

On the horizon, at first it was a thin black line, but it slowly turned into a thick black line, and the soldiers of the forbidden army on the camp wall looked at each other one by one, feeling a huge sense of oppression.

About half an hour later, when the offensive front of the Li Jiajun completely appeared in front of the forbidden army, many forbidden troops couldn't help but gasp several times.

My obedient, the war horses that are seriously lacking in the Central Plains, as if they don't want money, are boundless, and they can't see the end at a glance.

70,000 VS 230,000, in the case of a huge difference in strength, Li Jiajun actually dared to take the initiative to attack the imperial forbidden army defending the camp, and the generals of the forbidden army who accompanied Han Tong to watch the battle couldn't help but talk about it.

"Where did Li Yi get so many horses?"

"Alas, I snatched it from the Khitans, I heard that I almost took Youzhou."

"Don't talk nonsense, the Khitans bring hundreds of thousands of armor, what does Li Cheng rely on to take Youzhou?"

"You're so lonely and unheard, Li Reverse beat Yelu Huge with his head and didn't dare to fight......"

"Shh......h Be cautious, you can't say a few words, let Han Shuai hear it, won't his head be moved. ”

"Li Wei can also be regarded as a very capable traitor, in just a few years, he has pulled out so many battle-hardened strong troops."

"According to what I said, you shouldn't stick to the big camp, rush out first, grab the jackpot, and just extinguish Li Yi's prestige......"

Before the decisive battle officially began, the generals under Han Tong were actually timid.

Many generals of the forbidden army believe that Han Tong's method of being a shrinking turtle is simply the majesty of Chang Li and the destruction of the imperial court.

However, no one thought that the imperial army, which had sufficient weapons, a mountain of grain and grass, and an absolute superiority in troops, would be defeated in the garrison.

Since the end of the Tang Dynasty, the army of the Central Plains Dynasty, except for the appearance of traitors offering cities or camps, has never lost in the battle of defending the camp (city).

Siege warfare has always been a headache for the attacker. There is a cloud in the art of war, and ten rules surround it, that is to say, the attacker needs to have several times more troops than the defender before he dares to besiege it.

However, Li Zhongyi is an alternative, obviously the number of troops is several times less than the imperial court's army, but he dares to raise troops to attack, isn't this stupid?

Han Tong, who was holding the camp wall, was silent for a long time, and as a general, he vaguely smelled the same smell. He pondered carefully, but he never figured it out, what was wrong?

This is one of the factors that led to the huge gap in knowledge, the asymmetry of military information, and the eventual defeat of the war.

Li Zhongyi always remembered the anti-British hero Lin Zexu's recital, Lin Zexu was known as a prophet who opened his eyes to see the world, but told Emperor Daoguang that the British could not bend their legs and had to jump and jump.

This is the gap in knowledge, the major misunderstanding that has led to it, Lin Zexu has a ridiculous side, not to mention the ordinary grass people in the late Qing Dynasty?

Li Zhongyi rode on the back of "Blood Killing", the corners of his mouth kept high, and he was obviously in a very good mood.

Li Jiajun repaired for several days, and Li Zhongyi never ordered a general attack, mainly waiting for the dozen or so 12-pounder guns that had fallen behind.

Whether it is the Li Jiajun or the crusade army led by Han Tong, they essentially belong to the category of the forbidden army of the imperial court.

It's just that Li Zhongyi has always known about the elite forbidden army of the imperial court, but Han Tong knows very little about Li Jiajun's mastery of the advanced killing technology of bronze artillery.

After Zhao Kuangyin lost the battle, he never saw him, otherwise, Han Tong would have used a good excuse to chop off Zhao Kuangyin's head.

Sensing that the army's heart was a little chaotic, Han Tong suddenly drew his sword in his hand and shouted: "No matter who it is, whoever dares to disturb our army's heart will be killed." ”

The generals of the forbidden army saw Han Tong's henchmen and teeth, holding the sword that had followed Han Tong for many years, and patrolling around with murderous spirit, everyone knew that they had annoyed Han Tong, but they were afraid not to be used as a scapegoat, so they hurriedly closed their mouths.

Among the forbidden army, there is no special military judge, and the executors of the killing order are generally the relatives of the Chinese army.

The enforcement of military law by Han Tong's pro-teeth is not only a helpless move, but also a need for the authority of law enforcement.

As the saying goes, the prime minister's concierge is the seventh official, and what he is talking about is the power of the master's henchmen!

Han Tong knew in his heart that there were only more than 70,000 Li Reverse troops on the opposite side. However, the momentum of the march of only 70,000 people gave him the illusion that there were 700,000 people.

"Huh......" Han Tong subconsciously exhaled a long breath, and his self-confidence, which was originally bursting, plummeted, after all, Li Wei had defeated the feared Khitan Iron Cavalry many times, including the Leather Chamber Army that was already invincible in the eyes of people.

Li Zhongyi rode proudly on the back of the "Blood Kill", waved the horse whip in his hand, and asked Li Yongtang with a smile: "Han Tong refuses to come out, your 12-pounder cannon is the time to show its might." However, I must warn you that the stock of gunpowder is already insufficient, and it is necessary to save some money. ”

Li Yongtang beat his chest and saluted, and said loudly: "Your lord, if a round of five-stage salvo can't open the camp gate of Han Tong, the little one will come to see you." ”

Li Zhongyi is a generation of heroes who started by military merits, and after a long time of messing around with Qiu Ba, he likes to listen to this kind of categorical military order.

In fact, there are two kinds of military orders, one is a forced and deliberate frame, and the other is a confident display, which is absolutely incomparable.

Li Yongtang obviously belongs to the latter, Li Zhongyi nodded, and said with a smile: "Well, if it is like Bozhou, the army crushed Han Tong's camp without much effort, then I will congratulate you, the viscount has arrived." ”

With Li Zhongyi's promise, Li Yongtang was overjoyed and happy.

You must know that in the Li family's army, it is difficult to be promoted, and it is even more difficult to get a knight!

The difficulty of promotion is that every time you are promoted, you must take an exam, and the exam is not only about literacy, but also about being familiar with the map, proficient in leading soldiers, and most importantly, not afraid of sacrifice if you dare to draw your sword.

It is more difficult to get a knight than to be promoted, the reason is actually very simple, first of all, you need to accumulate enough military merits, at least three second-class merits, and one first-class merit, which can be regarded as just getting started.

The second is that there must be no more than three violations of military law. For minor violations of the law in the Li Jiajun, the punishment measures were mainly beaten with military sticks, supplemented by confinement.

Often, soldiers were afraid of confinement rather than spanking. The taste of confinement is so uncomfortable!

For 12 hours a day, the unlucky man who was locked up could only talk to himself, and he didn't want to say a word to the guards.

When the food is delivered, the guards will put the food in front of the window, and no matter how the people inside call, the guards will leave the food and leave, and will never dare to speak.

Cold violence is more intolerable in terms of moral damage than the physical pain of a spanking in the ass.

After the soldiers of the Sixth Army finished arranging, Li Yongtang beat his chest heavily and said in high spirits: "Just ask the Lord to wait for my good news." "Pat the horse and turn around and leave, never drag mud and water.

PS: The decisive battle has begun, Sikong will definitely speed up the progress of fighting for the world, there are at least two more today, ask for a monthly pass! (https:)
