Chapter 863: Ling Chi Tactics (I'm busy with the signing of the new book today, only this one, sorry, sorry)

"That's what I mean, too." Yang Fan nodded, but then frowned and said, "It's just that what are those explosive things used by the Tang Army, like divine thunder, it is too terrifying, last night the Tang Army attacked and disturbed, that thing killed and injured nearly 10,000 people, and now the officers and men in the army are very afraid of this thing, and the army is restless, and they all say that the Tang Army asked the gods for an artifact, and it is not something that can be defeated by manpower." ”

Garqin Ling said: "Ridiculous, if it is an artifact, why do they still attack us, just use the artifact to defeat us, the Tang people have created a lot of novel things over the years, presumably this is also a new weapon they have created." ”

"That makes sense." Yang Fan nodded and said, "That thing was thrown out of their hands and exploded when it hit the ground, we need to think of a countermeasure." ”

Garqinling said: "Let's find a way to deal with the attack of the Tang army first, the army didn't sleep all night last night, and now it's sleepy, if the Tang army comes again tonight, I'm afraid that this battle won't have to be fought." ”

"It's not that hard." Yang Fan smiled proudly and said, "We can divide part of the forces and ambush in the mountains and forests, if the Tang army attacks again at night, the ambush soldiers in the mountains and forests rush down from the mountain, intercept their back road, and let the group of people who attack and disturb have no return, the Tang army does not have many troops, there are as many as 100,000 soldiers and horses last night, these 100,000 people, only 50,000 are left, and the Tang army will be greatly injured." ”

"This method is very second!" Hearing this, Garqinling nodded vigorously and said, "Let's hurry up and deploy in our respective armies, this time the Tang army will not come back!" ”

Li Hao had already led the army into Gaolan Mountain, which was only fifteen miles away from the enemy, he climbed the mountain to find a good position, observed the movement of the enemy camp with a telescope, and found that the troops in the enemy camp were frequently moved, and many soldiers and horses went to the mountains and forests after leaving the camp.

Li Hao put down the binoculars and said with a smile: "The enemy is ready to ambush us." ”

Fan Lihua, Su Dingfang, and Peng Hai followed behind Li Hao, and Peng Hai asked, "How are they going to ambush us?" ”

"See for yourself." Li Hao handed the telescope to Peng Hai.

Peng Hai looked at it, and then frowned: "They are hiding ambushes in the mountains and forests, waiting for us to attack and disturb, this is to invite you into the urn." ”

"Exactly." Li Hao nodded with a sneer.

Fan Lihua and Su Dingfang also took turns looking at it with binoculars, and then Su Dingfang asked, "Then what should we do?" ”

Li Hao paced slowly when he heard this, as if he was groaning, and after a while, he made a decision and said coldly: "Shell the enemy camp tonight." ”

Fan Lihua was overjoyed when she heard this, she had seen the power of the cannon, and the bombardment of the enemy camp would definitely deeply shock the other party.

These thirty cannons were seized from Yuan Tiangang, the quality of Yuan Tiangang's cannons, he knows, the steel is not qualified, although it can be used, but the number of cannons is too much, there is a danger of exploding, the cannon is not a joke, it is almost suicide, but he has no choice now, he can only take the risk to give it a try.

Next, Li Hao and their camp also began to get busy, and everyone transported thirty cannons up the three hills to aim at the enemy camp.

Since the cannons and shells were intercepted from Yuan Tiangang, there were not many cannonballs, only three hundred, and on average, each cannon could fire ten cannons.

That night, the Garqin Mausoleum and Yang Fan were still waiting for the Tang army to come to attack and harass, and suddenly, a loud "boom" exploded in the Abbasid barracks, and Yang Fan suddenly rushed out of the tent and shouted: "The Tang army is attacking!" Fast! Pursuit! ”

In the barracks, the soldiers and horses that had already been prepared suddenly went out, ready to go out of the camp to pursue the Tang army.

"Boom" was another loud bang, and flowers exploded in the camp of the Tibetan army, and then one after another explosions came and went.

Yang Fan and Garqinling gradually discovered that something was wrong, why was it wrong, because this explosion was obviously several times more powerful than yesterday, and it actually exploded in the middle of the barracks, you know, last night the Tang army attacked and disturbed, and they threw grenades to the edge of the camp, who is so strong that they can throw it in the middle of the camp, their camp is more than ten miles big!

Sure enough, after a while, someone came to report: "Yang Dashuai!" There was no Tang military figure in sight. ”

"What!" Yang Fan was stunned when he heard this, and he couldn't see the Tang army attacking, so what happened to these explosions?

This is almost the same situation on the side of the Garqin Mausoleum, the Garqin Mausoleum sent people to pursue the Tang army to harass the detachment, but the soldiers came to report, there was not even a ghost outside the camp, and the Garqin Mausoleum was stunned.

The products of high technology have surpassed their cognition, this is open, Li Hao only hates that he didn't bring his own cannon, otherwise it would be like a joke to kill them.

Explosions rang out one after another in the two camps, and the panicked soldiers were blown everywhere, and their warehouses and tents were bombarded by shells, and suddenly the fire was splashed everywhere, and they were also ignited by artillery fire, and suddenly the camp was full of fires and chaos.

"Quick, retreat west! Get out of camp! "Yang Fan and Garqin Ling issued such an order almost at the same time, if you don't withdraw, you can't do it, if you stay here, even if you don't get killed, you will be burned to death.

The more troops, the slower they will move, and the 500,000 troops will withdraw from the camp, which will not be able to get out in a moment, and when they withdraw, the shells will be just exhausted, perfect.

Li Hao has been looking at the enemy camp with a telescope on the top of the mountain, this time the artillery bombardment is still quite effective, although only more than 10,000 people were killed and wounded, but most of the enemy camp was destroyed, and the loss of grain and grass was also very large, and most importantly, it severely damaged the morale of the enemy army, and morale was very important in the battle.

On the top of the mountain, Su Dingfang said: "Handsome! At this moment, the enemy army is panicked and demoralized, should we take the opportunity to attack? ”

Li Hao waved his hand and said: "No, they don't know if the ambush soldiers on the mountain have retreated, if they don't retreat, they rush down from the mountain and are condescending, which will have a great impact on us." ”

Fan Lihua nodded when she heard this, this is indeed the case, the enemy's ambush soldiers are hiding in the mountains and forests, not knowing the truth and reality, Li Hao is right not to take risks, after all, they only have such a small number of troops, although the combat power is good, but every bit of troops is precious, and it is not easy to get into danger.

"So what do we do next?" Su Dingfang asked.

Li Hao looked at the retreating enemy army, and said slowly: "Let's see if they retreat first, if they don't retreat, they will definitely let the rear add grain and grass, then Peng Hai, you will take 5,000 people around the rear of the enemy army and rob their grain and grass, and the enemy army will definitely be in turmoil and fall into a passive situation." ”

"Great idea!" The three of them cheered in unison.

The enemy withdrew from the camp and lined up at the foot of the mountain to prevent the Tang army from attacking, according to the guesses of Garqinling and Yang Fan, the Tang army made them so miserable with the divine thunder, and they would definitely take advantage of the chaos to attack, so they withdrew from the barracks as soon as they lined up the array and prepared to meet the battle, as long as the Tang army came, plus the ambushes on the mountains on both sides, the Tang army would definitely be able to wipe out the whole army.

But Li Hao will not fall for them, he did not attack at all, he saw that the enemy did not retreat, and immediately allocated 5,000 soldiers and horses to Peng Hai, so that he quickly went around to the rear of the enemy army, and attacked the enemy's grain and grass team, and these 5,000 soldiers and horses were all removed from the armor, the only armor was the iron shield, the weight was reduced by at least 80 catties (130 catties in the future world), and each person was equipped with two horses.

Although Garqinling and Yang Fan were embarrassed by the bombing of the Tang army last night, they were also a little confused, but fortunately, the loss of troops was not too serious, they were unwilling, they had so many large armies, the Tang Dynasty had just experienced civil strife, and the current national strength was empty, it was the best time to kill them in one fell swoop, if you miss this opportunity, I am afraid there will be no next time, after all, opportunities are not always there, and the gap between their national strength and the national strength of the Tang Dynasty has become farther and farther away.

But the shadow caused by the cannon to them is still very big, when did this group of uninformed barbarians see such a terrifying explosion, in their hearts, it was not done by manpower, it should be divine power, rumors began to spread in the army, saying that the Tang Army invited the gods to help, and the Tang Dynasty was blessed by the gods, in fact, there were some soldiers who were greedy for life and afraid of death who wanted to go home, so they talked nonsense.

This is a big crime to disturb the morale of the army, Garqinling and Yang Fan learned of the rumors in the army, they were extremely angry, and immediately sent people to strictly investigate the origin of the rumors, found out more than a dozen people who spread rumors, and corrected the law on the spot, and showed the public the head, so as to deter the whole army, establish military prestige, and finally suppressed the rumors, but they themselves knew that the morale of the army was already a little low, but for this rare opportunity, they had to fight this battle hard, although they were currently at a slight disadvantage, they firmly believed that the success or failure of the moment was not enough to make the following conclusions.

Li Hao just spent it with them, and from time to time he sent out tentative attacks, but there were no big casualties, so it took nearly a month, Peng Hai finally came back, when he went, there were 5,000 soldiers and horses, and only 1,000 people came back, but he brought good news, they robbed and killed the enemy's two super large grain and grass teams, annihilated nearly 30,000 enemies, and burned 600,000 stones of enemy grain and grass.

600,000 stone grain and grass, that is an extremely large number, enough for 500,000 troops to eat for two months, but they were all burned by Peng Hai, although they lost 4,000 Qinghai guards, but their sacrifice was worth it!

At the same time, Garqinling and Yang Fan also received a courier from the rear, 600,000 stone grain and grass were looted and burned, and the two of them were dumbfounded.

Whether it is the common people or soldiers, the grain is their day, there is no food, how to fight, if the news of the grain and grass is leaked out, I am afraid that the army's spirit will be dispersed immediately, and it may cause a mutiny.

Garqinling and Yang Fan secretly discussed again all night, and finally decided to make a desperate attempt to pursue the Tang army, and it was necessary to destroy these Tang troops in the shortest possible time.

In the afternoon of the same day, the enemy camp in the frequent movement of soldiers and horses, Li Hao stood on the top of the hill with a telescope to see clearly, and then returned to the camp after the order to prepare for the retreat of the camp, his tactics are, the enemy advances and I retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, now I have food and grass, you don't have it, I just consume it with you, consume until you are hungry and exhausted, and then I say hit you when I want to hit you, when I want to hit you, when I want to hit you, it is like cutting meat with a knife, Li Hao called it Ling Chi tactics.
