At dusk, on the edge of the Hanhai Desert, in the camp of the Song army.

Water trucks loaded with wood were pulled to the battalion stations. All the buckets were opened, and the preparation generals and deputy preparations of each battalion personally turned the empty wooden barrels upside down in front of the officers and men of the whole battalion.

Of course, not a drop of water came out! Today is a free drink, and the people and horses who have been thirsty for a few days have drunk it heartily, and there are still some left, which have already been distributed along with the dry food and the reward money for going out into battle. Every officer and soldier's water bag was full.

The preparer shouted.

"See? The bucket is empty! There is no water left! ”

"Sons, now there is no water, so I can only fight with the West Thief Liaogou!"

"Either die of thirst, or go drink the blood of the Western Thief Liao Dog!"

"Are you going to die of thirst, or are you going to drink blood?"

"Drink blood! Drink blood ......"

Seeing that the soldiers were all screaming, those battalion generals and deputy generals began to bewitch again: "Xuan Commander has an order!" Tonight's decisive battle, there is no retreat, looking for life in the dead, all beheading the first level, all give Shuo Fangtian 100 acres, the small envoy below, turn an official! ”

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! ”

"Kill the thief and change the land......"

The houses in Kaifeng Mansion are not divided, but there are still a lot of land on Shuofang Road. Gao Yu actually didn't want to give it, but he couldn't stand Tong Guan's generosity. Tong Guan is Shuo Fang Lu Jingluo appeasement and control, and he can carry down the matter of dividing the land. Therefore, before Gao Yu sent out the army, he told Gao Yu's military commander that one head would be exchanged for 100 acres of land, and there was no upper limit! Cutting enough 10 is 1,000 acres, and 100 is 10,000 acres. In short, if you want to be a big landlord, you have to work hard to cut people!

The land on Shuofang Road is not attractive to the house slave warriors of Kaifeng Mansion, they have another standard, they exchange their heads for money.

But for the farmer who doesn't have much knowledge, 100 acres of land can still inspire motivation!

And now it seems that it can't be done if you don't work hard, there is no water! The buckets are empty, and if you don't win, you're going to die of thirst! Instead of dying of thirst, it is better to fight with the western thief!

"Armor!"

Seeing that the morale of the battalions had risen, the commanders and deputy commanders of the battalions began to continue to give orders.

"The whole team!"

"The teams are drawn out, the first team follows the deputy preparation; The third team, following the preparations, will ...... Let's go! Sing military songs! ”

The Xinfu soldiers are based on the battalion as the basic combat unit - the Xinfu soldiers are not fancy clothes, and the team below (including the team) is a pure team. That is, a squad of soldiers is armed with one weapon, either a spear, a sword, a shield, or a bow and arrow. Therefore, only when the three teams get together can they have complete offensive and defensive capabilities.

And the first team of each battalion is a pike, the second is an archery, and the third is a sword and shield team. According to Gao Yu's order (in fact, it was ordered by the military commander), today's combat is mainly hand-to-hand combat, so the preparation generals and deputy preparations must personally master the spear team and the sword and shield team.

The sound of war drums and horns had already resounded over the hastily erected Song army camp at this time. The Xinfu soldiers, who were based on the battalion, began to leave their camp in a big way, singing the military song "No Clothes" and heading to the designated position.

Outside the Song army camp, thousands of cavalry had already put on their armor, turned over their horses, and then spread out on the battlefield in teams of 50 cavalry. It began to approach the party about 20 miles away, the Khitan coalition army camp.

The Song army, which numbered only 60,000, now seems to be taking the initiative to attack the battalion of more than 100,000 party items, the Khitan coalition army!

This scene can be seen by the party - Qianshun, An Hui, Yeluyute and Xiao Heda behind the fence of the Khitan army camp are a little stupid.

These Song soldiers are not dragging their feet at all! I just arrived this morning, and I escaped the heat during the day, and when the sun set, I went out of the camp to attack!

I have to say, this Gao Yu is really high!

They don't have a water source now, and it will definitely be disadvantageous to delay it, so it's better to take advantage of the fact that their morale has not dissipated, and immediately fight a decisive battle!

"Old County King," the Wushu Qianshun felt a little at a loss, so he asked the veteran of the Great Liao for advice, "Do you want to go out of the camp enemy?" ”

It's definitely the right thing to do......

Because the Western Xia-Khitan army did not have a hard village to rely on. They were not good at camping in the first place, and they didn't expect that the Song army would directly attack their own camp.

This doesn't make sense!

Western Xia - the Khitan army has more than 100,000 people! The Song army should have made a detour for dozens of miles, and then waited tirelessly and thirstily for the Western Xia-Khitan army to attack, where could there be a direct attack on the hard village?

"It's better to guard the village!" Jerumutra swallowed as he looked at the countless spear tips that reflected the dazzling light in the afterglow of the setting sun. "Song Gou's morale is very high, he should first defend the camp and take the enemy's edge, and then counterattack with cavalry."

"Good! Just according to the old county king. ”

Qianshun had never fought, nor had he inherited his mother's aggressiveness...... In fact, he is a Confucian student, or a Buddhist disciple, fighting a war or something, first relying on his mother, then relying on his younger brother, and in history, he will rely on a father-in-law who surrendered to the Western Army of the Song Dynasty.

Xiao Heda added: "It is possible that the Song army will feint and then use cavalry to detour behind our army. It is better to ask the old county king to lead 30,000 Khitan warriors out of the camp and ambush behind the camp. ”

Qianshun nodded, "That's fine!" ”

……

"Actually guarding the camp? Thirty miles of company camps, there are no tall camp walls, no trenches, even the wooden fences are so sparse, many places use carts to make up the number...... Can this be kept? ”

On the other hand, seeing that the Western Xia-party coalition army could not defend the camp, even Gao Yu, who was actually not good at fighting, felt that the other party was blindly commanding.

In order to block the Song army, Qianshun and Yeluyute set up a company camp of thirty miles. With such a large defensive front, it is naturally impossible to build it like an iron bucket. There aren't that many materials! Moreover, the Western Xia-Khitan coalition army had an army of 1120,000, which was twice as much as the Song army that came from Baichi City.

So many people are waiting for work, and they have walked 200 miles of desert. People with a little military knowledge know that they can win by lying down...... But today they encountered a Song army that violated military common sense.

"How?" Gao Yu asked.

"First a feint on the left flank, then a feint on the right flank, then a strong attack on the middle of the cavalry, and finally the cavalry followed up and struck together to the rear of the enemy camp...... It is estimated that they are about to collapse! ”

Li Yongqi immediately came up with a plan. It's not difficult at all, in the Military Science Division, Old Man Murong has taught him - the best way to deal with the rabble is to feint and pull, and then break through strongly.

Gao Yu didn't understand much, and looked at Wang Yu directly. Wang Yu said: "Yongzhi's method is good, it is better to have Wu Song attack his left flank, and Xuan Shuai himself to attack his right flank." Xiaguan personally led the three fronts of the emperor to break through from the center, and the military aircraft should be commanded in the center of the dispatch. ”

"Good!" Gao Yu nodded, "That's it!" ”

……

With the completion of the dispatch and deployment of Gao Yu's department, the night has fallen. The camp of the Western Xia-Khitan coalition army is still closed at the gate, and countless butter torches are inserted on the long fence, and the night wind pulls the fire for a long time, reflecting the shadowy human figure. Everyone was nervously watching the scene on the battlefield opposite.

Song Jun also seemed to have pulled out a long snake formation and lit a lot of bonfires, one by one, there were always dozens of them. Behind the bonfire, there was a faint Song army, they did not hold torches, only the bright moonlight sprinkled on their armor, shining with a cold glow.

The light cavalry of the Song army roamed the battlefield, their figures looming in the darkness, giving people a mysterious and terrifying feeling. However, the heavy cavalry of the Song army did not appear, and they must have been in the darkness in the distance, waiting for the opportunity to attack.

At this time, Qianshun had already returned to the Chinese army's big tent under the direct escort of his sixth class. The defense has already been arranged, that is, with the garrison army as the core, escorting the Commander Lang and the negative support army, forming dozens of temporary commands, deployed along the wooden fence of thirty miles. In order to strengthen the defense, at this time, the garrison is urging the sand pile wall of Ling Lang and the negative support army, so as to build a camp wall, and then put the wooden shield next to it, so that they are not afraid of the rain of arrows of the Song army.

In the eyes of the Western Xia generals who were guarding the camp, the attack of the Song army should still be based on bows and crossbows......

In addition, around the big tent of the Chinese army in Qianshun, there were also the six direct forbidden troops and the iron harrier cavalry of Western Xia, with a total of 7,500 people, all of whom were the most elite soldiers. They will serve as a reserve to fill the breakthrough of the Song army at any time.

As for the 30,000 Khitan cavalry, they had already left the camp and were deployed behind the camp......

……

"Do you say you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear, and have the same enmity with the son! How can you say that you have no clothes? With the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my spear halberd, and work with my son! How can you say that you have no clothes? with the Son. Wang Yuxingshi, repair my armor soldiers, and walk with his son......"

Two generals and more than 8,000 soldiers had formed 18 battalion-level phalanxes at this time, singing the military song "No Clothes", and under the guidance of the moonlight, they walked to the southern line of the battlefield.

The one who led these two generals of the new government was Wu Song. As Gao Yu's henchman, he naturally wants to participate in this battle.

And it's the first battle!

Night battles will be a huge problem for commanders for many years to come! Wu Song was no exception, and he had no way to grasp the situation of the 18 battalions under his feet on this night. However, he has at least dozens of generals, lieutenants, generals, subordinates, subordinates, preparers and lieutenants who can be relied on - they are either warriors or knights, and they are the best officers. In addition, 54 teams and 54 teams are about reliable, too! Although they were all from the government soldiers (government soldiers who participated in the battle of Tongwan and performed well), they were barely able to master a team under the guidance of superior officers.

Although these 18 battalions have no way to compare with the previous troops of the three direct commanders, Wu Song believes that they are still strong soldiers that the party members cannot resist!
