Chapter 116: Preparing for War (I)
…
War always comes when you are unprepared and catches you off guard!
Li Yanzhen didn't expect that the matter of the prince who had been noisy in the first half of the year would suddenly settle - it was still the king of Ding, Zhao Huan, as the crown prince.
After the official position was worry-free, Gao Yu didn't even wait and see, and directly faced the saint to ask for the extermination of Shuibo Liangshan.
What Li Yan didn't expect was that Gao Yu couldn't help but send Hu Yanzhuo, Cheng Ziming, Hu Chun, Qiu Yue, and Zhou Ang, and sent 3,000 elite horse troops, 5,000 elite infantry troops, plus auxiliary soldiers and civilian husbands, I am afraid that it is at least 10,000 troops.
Look at your own side again.
The infantry army was less than two battalions, to be precise, there were only eight hundred people in eight capitals, which was six or seven times worse than the infantry army brought by Hu Yanzhuo.
The Ma army was less than one battalion, to be precise, there were only four capitals and four hundred people, which was seven or eight times worse than the Ma army brought by Hu Yanzhuo.
The soldiers are not as good, if they can be stronger than Hu Yanzhuo, but if they can't do it, they will fight the generals, and then behead the generals so that their dragons are leaderless.
But the problem is that Hu Yanzhuo, Cheng Ziming, Hu Chun, Qiu Yue, and Zhou Ang are all tiger generals, and on their own side, Lin Chong may be able to win one of them, Bian Xiang, Yang Zhi, Xu Ning, Chen Liqing, Shan Shiqi, Zhu Jing, and Zhu Qi, including himself, although they can also fight with them, but the chances of winning are not great, Li Yan even regrets leaving Shi Bao and Lu Zhishen on Jeju Island, if Shi Bao and Lu Zhishen are also there, they will fight in groups if they can't fight, and they will all be killed by employing people.
Pity......
Fortunately!
There are still two battalions of sailors on his side, as well as Liangshan Bo Tianxian, otherwise this battle is really impossible to fight!
Li Yan was also a little puzzled!
Why doesn't this Gao Yu play cards according to the routine? Song Jiang and they broke Gao Tangzhou and cut off Gao Lian's head, Gao Yu only sent Hu Yanzhuo, why did Ruan Xiaoqi just abolish Gao Yanei, Gao Yu not only sent Hu Yanzhuo but also Cheng Ziming, Hu Chun, Qiu Yue, and Zhou Ang? Could it be that Gao Yanei is really so important to Gao Yu, more important than Gao Lian's prefect's younger brother?
In fact, what Li Yan didn't know was that Gao Lian died, it was just a momentary anger, after a long time, Gao Yu accepted it, and slowly even forgot about it, and Gao Yanei was still crying and crying in front of Gao Yu all day long and saying that Gao Yu was gone, and this time was as long as half a year, which made Gao Yu not hate Li Yan and others so hateful, not to mention that Gao Yu later learned that Li Yan took in Lin Chong, the person he wanted to kill, in Gao Yu's opinion, Li Yan was making a name to be the enemy of his Gao Taiwei, and even provoking him Gao Taiwei, Let's ask, how can Gao Yu endure it?
In addition, Gao Yu also hates Cheng Ziming, Hu Chun, Qiu Yue, Zhou Ang, including Sun Jing, who doesn't know his whereabouts, if it weren't for the fact that a few of them protected Gao Yanei, Gao Yanei would not have become such a ghost, and he Gao Yu would not have cut off his children and grandchildren, so Gao Yu sent Cheng Ziming, Hu Chun, Qiu Yue, and Zhou Ang to crusade against Li Yan, if the four of them performed well enough, even if the four of them would atone for their crimes, if the four of them did not behave well, Li Yan would not kill the four of them, and Gao Yu would also make the four of them look good!
Lucky!
After Sun Jing joined Li Yan, she opened a list for Li Yan, that is, the list of family members that Sun Jing asked Li Yan to take.
Among them is Sun Jing's younger brother, that is, Sun Gao, who followed Gao Yanei to fool around.
Although Sun Gao is not successful, there is one thing that is excellent, that is, he listens to his brother Sun Jing's words.
After Zhang San and Li Si, who were sent by Li Yan to earn Sun Jing's family, found Sun Gao and brought Sun Jing's handwritten letters and words to Sun Gao, Sun Gao immediately went to gather him and Sun Jing's family.
And during this period, Sun Gao heard it, and Gao Yu was ready to exterminate Li Yan.
Sun Gao thought about it, and then went to Gao Yanei to inquire carefully.
Without much effort, Sun Gao inquired about Gao Yu's Baoju Hu Yanzhuo and sent Cheng Ziming, Hu Chun, Qiu Yue, and Zhou Ang to lead 8,000 elite horse infantry troops to exterminate Shuibo Liangshan.
Sun Gao didn't dare to delay, and told Zhang San and Li Si about the matter as soon as possible.
Zhang San and Li Si were shocked when they heard this!
The two discussed, and finally Zhang San rode back to Shuibo Liangshan overnight to report the news.
Zhang San arrived at the Dongshan Hotel and learned that Li Yan had not returned to the mountain.
Zhu Gui immediately made a decision and sent Han Bolong to Erlong Mountain to find Li Yan.
Knowing that Hu Yanzhuo was coming to exterminate himself, Li Yan did not dare to delay, and immediately led people back to Shuibo Liangshan.
As soon as he returned to Shuibo Liangshan, Li Yan ordered the formation of the Sandu Infantry Army, all of which were led by Ji Ji, one by Cao Zheng, and one by Yang Lin, and then formed a horse army, led by Yang Zhi.
In order to let the Du, Cao Zhengdu, Yang Lindu, and Yang Zhidu form their combat strength as soon as possible, Li Yan still used the old method - drawing people from other infantry and horse armies, and then using those old people as the skeleton to form a new army.
At the same time, Li Yan ordered Tang Long to build a hook and sickle spear, and ordered Xu Ning to teach Deng Fei's battalion (since Lu Zhishen was in charge of Jeju Island, Li Yan promoted Deng Fei to command, and led the second infantry battalion composed of Deng Fei Liangdu, Ji Qidu, Cao Zhengdu, and Yang Lindu). Use the Hook Scythe and prepare to take on the chain of horses that are scorching.
The so-called hook and sickle to break the chain of horses is actually the same as Yue Fei using a hemp knife to break the Iron Floating Slaughter, both of which are to let the infantry cut off the horse's legs - the chain horse and the Iron Floating Slaughter are at least five horses connected together, and sometimes even thirty or fifty horses are connected together, and one horse is lame and even the other horses are knocked to the ground. Once they fall to the ground, it will be difficult to get up again, heavy helmets, heavy armor and vests, plus people and horses, how can it be so easy to get up with that kind of weight. That way, the infantry would be able to easily clean them up.
Can this method break the chain of horses or the Iron Float?
Yes.
But the consumption will not be small.
The Serial Horse or the Iron Float were actually the heavy tanks of this era.
How many of the soldiers you saw who went to blow up the tank tracks survived?
Hu Yanzhuo's 3,000 chain horses can be divided into 600 groups.
Even if Li Yan was asked to exchange an infantry for a group of chain horses, Li Yan couldn't afford to change it - Li Yan only had two battalions of infantry in total, how could he exchange with Hu Yanzhuo?
What's more, if Li Yan can use five to ten infantry to defeat Hu Yanzhuo's group of chain horses on the battlefield, Li Yan will wake up with a smile - how can the "tank" tracks be so easy to blow up, don't forget that there are people who can still sit and move on the "tank", and those people all have strong bows and spears in their hands, how can it be easy for people to blow up the tracks of the "tank" where they are sitting?
Therefore, Li Yan, who can't afford to lose, can't pin all his hopes on Xu Ning's hook and sickle gun, he still has to prepare a strange move to win......

PS: Big Bird here last night earthquake, it's not big, it's not the epicenter area, but it shook very badly, so that after the earthquake, most of the people in the community ran out, and the Big Bird family also ran out when they saw this, everyone squatted in the square for a night, until the morning after eating breakfast outside, the Big Bird family didn't come back, didn't sleep all night, and hugged the child all night, so the big bird slept all day, and it was dark after getting up, and finally the big bird could only code out this chapter.
Having said that, in fact, what I really want to say is that there is only one shift today, sorry!
