Chapter 203: Why Do I Carry It So Much?
Gao Xianxing was also dumbfounded, isn't it like this. Halfway through the siege of the city, a strong wind blew out the torches? Now a group of people are fighting all on grenades, attacking? Now the city is in full swing, can't attack, retreat, so many people died under the city, it can't be said to retreat like this, when the army arrives, even if Hou Junji wants to take care of him again, the responsibility of attacking the city by himself is indispensable, and now it is really a dilemma!
The soldiers of the firearms battalion on the siege ladder were waiting for Gao Xianxing to give an order, but Gao Xianxing had not made a plan that the grenade could not be fired or that it would not catch fire, he was originally a son-in-law, the kind of person who ate, drank and had fun in Chang'an City. It's just because of his own Lao Tzu that he was promoted, and he was usually not very convinced by Li Dongsheng in the firearms battalion, and he saw the scene of the firearms battalion's attack under the city of Songzhou, and he felt that the war was so simple, he threw a grenade directly to the city, and then took the city, who wouldn't be so simple? As long as he has this weapon, the war is not invincible, he just didn't think about what to do if the grenade can't be used?
His hesitation killed people, the situation on the battlefield changed rapidly, the Upper Turks and Gaochang soldiers at the head of the city were not vegetarians, just in their stunned kung fu, all kinds of stones, rolling oil nail boards smashed down on their heads and faces, and they heard the screams of the Tang army. Then the rain fell, and seeing that the siege was hopeless, Gao Xianxing had no choice but to order the withdrawal of the first team
The Tang army actually withdrew, the Turks and Gaochang soldiers at the head of the city were ecstatic, the Tang army was menacing, in recent years, the Eastern Turks, Tuyuhun, and the famous Western Regions were shocked, everyone was still worried, for fear of attacking the city and hitting it, and now it doesn't seem to be very good. 35xs is such a weak combat power, then we don't have to be afraid at all.
"How many dead and wounded have we?" Gao Xianxing was roasting rain-soaked clothes in the tent and asked his own soldiers.
"More than 400 dead, more than 200 wounded... The soldier whispered.
"What? Why are the casualties so large? It took time to attack half a pillar of incense. Gao Xianxing was taken aback, he originally thought that he would be able to fool him when he died, but now that he has died so many people, there is no result at all, Hou Junji can't explain anywhere, maybe he will be punished for the crime of greed for merit.
He hammered the case hard: "Damn God didn't help me, it was windy and rainy when I was attacking the city, I was really angry." ”
When Hou Junji led the army to reach the city of Gaochang under the heavy rain, after hearing that Gao Xianxing had suffered so many casualties and did not attack the city, he felt that it really brought bad luck to his army attacking Gaochang, and in order to strictly enforce military discipline, he directly ordered: "Gao Xianxing recklessly attacked, resulting in the death and injury of our soldiers, and dragged out to fight 20 boards, in order to set an example!" ”
The red clouds on the horizon had slowly risen, the sky had already dawned, and there was no longer the bloody smell of yesterday evening's battle in the air. The weather was a little cold, but Hou Junji stood at the gate of the camp without feeling it, looking at the tall Gaochang city wall in front of him, like a monster staring at him. As the commander of the first army, he thinks a lot, and now the momentum of the offensive has been suppressed by the failure of Gao Xianxing, so it is better to rest on the spot for a few days.
What he is afraid of now is that when he is attacking the city, the Turkic cavalry suddenly attacks him, and it will be dangerous! The Turks are best at field warfare, and thousands of Turkic iron cavalry are the natural enemies of the infantry. Even if the Tang Army could fight again, he didn't feel that he would be able to withstand the impact of the cavalry. But now all the scouts were sent, but no trace of the Turkic cavalry was found.
Going deep alone, only a quick solution is the best way. Thinking of a quick victory, he glanced at the firearms battalions around the camp, and yesterday they were greedy for merit, and launched an attack without waiting for the arrival of the army, resulting in the loss of troops and the loss of morale. As soon as he said that the lone army was deep, Hou Junji, who had been in battle for a long time, suddenly changed his face, and he put the baggage camp behind, only two thousand soldiers guarded it, if the Turkic cavalry sent a team to attack, and then fortified the wall and cleared the field, he would retreat without a fight.
Thinking of this, he immediately returned to the military tent, and was about to arrange for someone to support the baggage battalion, when a personal soldier ran in quickly, knelt down on one knee, and raised a battle report with both hands: "Report the general manager, the battle report of the firearms battalion!"
The air in the tent immediately froze, the chief manager just mentioned that the baggage battalion might be attacked, and now the firearms battalion has a battle report, has it been wiped out? That's too bad.
Hou Junji's heart also sank, but he took the battle report without changing his face, opened the battle report, read it seriously, and then read it twice in disbelief! More than 500 people were killed in the battle, more than 900 Turkic cavalry were killed, and no prisoners were taken, oh no, and the younger brother of the Western Turkic Khan, Ashina Budai, was captured alive?
Li Dongsheng is telling a story. This is Hou Junji's first feeling when he sees the battle report. How could two thousand foot soldiers achieve such a result against a Turkic cavalry of more than a thousand men? He knew the power of a thousand Turkic cavalry, which could make an army of tens of thousands collapse, and if the timing and rhythm were well mastered, it would be possible to scatter tens of thousands of troops, so he could kill a thousand cavalry with the two thousand infantry of the firearms battalion and those people?
Seeing that Hou Junji took the battle report for a long time and did not react, his staff said boldly: "Chief Administrator, what is the situation in the baggage camp?" ”
Hou Junji said slowly: "The battle report of the baggage camp, a thousand Turkic cavalry raided the baggage camp, were all killed, and captured the Khan's younger brother Ashina Budai. ”
There was a sudden silence in the military tent, and then all the soldiers from below the staff road shouted: "How is this possible? ”
"Fake military merit is so mad?"
"Li Dongsheng is dying? Want to take credit and want to go crazy? ”
"That's it, he dares to write such a war report...
Hou Junji read the battle report twice, and what he can be sure of now is that a Turkic cavalry will attack the baggage camp, and the battle must have been won by Li Dongsheng, but there must be some errors in the number, otherwise those infantry can kill a thousand cavalry? But in the war report, it was conclusive that he also captured Ashina Budai, this is the younger brother of the Western Turkic Khan Desire Valley, and he is a prince-level figure in the Tang Dynasty, this is a great achievement, Li Dongsheng shouldn't dare to lie about such a big thing, right?
The people below were still arguing about the truth of this battle report and Li Dongsheng's boldness, but Hou Junji had an amazing idea: What if this war report is true? The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, because the army knew that the vanguard siege was not good for the city yesterday, so everyone's morale was not high, if the news was spread, it would definitely be an encouragement to the army's heart. plus the capture of a prince, that's a good start. It seems that Li Dongsheng can still fight, that Gao Xianxing is usually bullish, and everyone is amazing, but unfortunately when he arrives on the battlefield, he will become a soft-footed shrimp, and the firearms battalion can easily capture Songzhou City in the hands of Li Dongsheng, and when it comes to you, it will lose troops and generals, this is the gap, and the most important thing in the army is whether you can lead people to win the battle. Thinking of this, Hou Junji said loudly: "Li Dongsheng's battle report and results are too terrifying, immediately send someone to the baggage camp to verify, if it is a lie, arrest on the spot." If you really report to the whole army immediately, give him a great credit! ”
