Chapter Seventy-One: Conspiracy
Selene had been following the development of the battlefield, and thanks to that extraordinarily unusual clairvoyant, he was able to closely observe the development of the battle situation. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The heavy armored iron cavalry was fierce and powerful, and under the fierce charge, the battle formation of the Ming army was like a boat in a storm, shaking in the wind and rain, and the layers of battle formations were penetrated, as if they would collapse at any time.
But these Ming soldiers were able to make up for it under such an impact, and even launched a counterattack.
The charge of the heavy cavalry failed, and Qinggeltai was also killed. Akito seemed ready to cheer.
But Se Ling knew: "The most exciting time has just begun!" Everything is under control!
Selene chuckled.
The battle is about to enter a scorching state, and he will be the decisive winner!
"Command the ministries to prepare to fire!" Seleng said in a loud voice.
At the same time, the shelling position located above the green mound was empty. The heralds of the color ridge arrived at the artillery position with pride.
The herald was very imposing, as if he was waiting for his orders to be given to witness a great victory.
But looking at the empty artillery position, the herald was stunned.
At the highest point of the green mound, Se Ling waited for a full quarter of an hour, but still did not hear the long-awaited cannon.
At the same time, Bayindai is also looking forward to his main force of the Qing Dynasty. Compared with Seleng's uneasiness, Bayindai is much more confident.
Time, back to five days ago.
From Fengzhou all the way to the southwest is the Naturalization City, in the Naturalization City all the way to the south can cross the Heihe River to reach the Gray River, and then go straight to the south, cross the confluence, in the place located in the southeast of the Naturalization City almost more than 100 miles away, you can see Yunchuanwei.
Of course, the normal avenue, suitable for people to walk, and the road with many people and abundant water and grass is along the two banks of the gray river and the black river. There are abundant water and grass, there are many tribes, and it is also the most developed and easy to walk place.
But this certainly does not mean that there are no roads to walk in the rest of the steppe.
The road, the more people walk, the more it becomes the road.
Today, a new path seems to have been opened.
Of course, this is not to say that it has been newly opened. Relying on the help of Bayindai, the capital of the Naturalized City, Sonny was given three guides. These people are excellent falconers who keep falcons that can spread their wings and fly high.
Relying on falcons, they became clairvoyants.
And those who indulge in falconry flying on the grasslands are also geographical, familiar with all the geographical terrain within a radius of hundreds of miles above the grasslands of the Tumut Tribe.
If there is a way to find a path that few people can walk and hide themselves, then they have to be.
So, in the unknown corner of the steppe of the Tumut Department, thousands of people walked silently.
Each of these men had two horses, one on horseback, and the other on dry food and supplies that allowed them to fight long on the steppe.
They left Toyosu and headed south, having crossed the Gray River and appeared in the southeast direction of Yunnai.
Of course, they only know their own orientation in a general way, and they don't know where they are located.
They walked cautiously on the barren mountain road, relying on three excellent guides, and along the way they were not discovered by the herdsmen, except for a few waves of wolves and wild horses that ran away from them.
Relying on this, they managed to evade their long-awaited target: the Han Chinese.
"They appeared!" A Manchurian knight rushed back to his camp from afar, shouting excitedly.
Sony, who had marched thousands of miles and had to think hard about what to do with the enemy, was extremely tired. These days, I can't eat or sleep well, and I am marching in the field, and the conditions can be imagined. In particular, he has to avoid others, trembling, like being a thief, which makes people angry and uneasy. Under such conditions, Sony is naturally difficult to look good.
At this moment, Sony was pleasantly surprised when he heard that his subordinates were coming.
"Is it them? Is it the supply team of the Ming army? Dahan, you can show me clearly, is it the supply team of the Ming people? Sonny was out of breath.
Dahan was the scout who came to report the surprise.
Seeing that Sonny attached great importance to it, Dahan also hurriedly calmed down, thought for a while, and said, "It's not the Han people's supply team. ”
"Isn't it?" Sonny stared at Dahan in disbelief, with a look of surprise on his face.
Of course, Dahan was not playing with Sony, he saw Sony's expression and immediately knew that he had misunderstood, and hurriedly said, "No, no, no." It wasn't the Han people's baggage supply team that came, but it was indeed the Han people's soldiers and horses. It's just that it's not a replenishment team that goes from the south to the north, it's a logistics team that goes back from the north to the south! ”
"Back from north to south? Could it be that the Han people have already finished fighting? Sonny's heart pounded. But soon, he shook his head at the thought with a casual calculation in his head.
He calculates time with great precision.
When Sony left Toyosu and headed south, Bayindai had just begun to ease relations, unite internally, and unite externally. At that time, the Ming army had almost stabilized its footing in Yunnei and continued to march slowly towards Guihua City.
Even if the worst plan is calculated, the Ming people can go thousands of miles to kill the Naturalization City unusually, Bayindai will at least wait for him to appear and turn the tide of the war, and will never surrender.
The Manchurian people have a strong will to fight, and even if they defend the city alone, they will never be conquered in a short time.
As long as the battle lasts more than half a day, Sony's time is enough.
In other words, the group of people who came was by no means the vanguard of the Han people's victorious return to the camp.
Thinking about it like this, Sony himself was dizzy.
"What the hell is the way to go? Someone can't be a deserter! "There are countless question marks popping up in Sony's head.
At this time, Dahan continued to buckle the noose and talk about what he saw: "Depending on the situation, it should be the Han people who were wounded and retreated." And...... Looking at the faces, I also saw thousands of captives, all of them ...... All of them belong to the Tumut Ministry. ”
Sony's face turned green all at once.
He quickly led a guide to follow Dahan to take a peek.
They were in the dark, and there were guides looking for shaded corners, and soon they saw the procession.
At this moment, Sony finally understood what the existence described by Dahan was.
This is a non-combat unit that has returned early.
Obviously, Akito has already experienced a war. And the ending is obviously quite smooth. They captured a considerable number of Mongols, but also a significant number of wounded soldiers. From time to time, you can see the wounded lying on the flatbed cart wrapped in gauze.
As a Manchu minister, he was naturally far from being well-informed and could not be compared to the Mongols. He knew far more about the Ming people than some of the Mongol tribal chieftains.
He had heard that this was the medical guard of the Ming people.
Now the Ming Emperor has established a military hospital at the very beginning, and where the battle occurs, there are health personnel. And the proportion is staggering, with two or three people in every company of a few dozen people. A battalion and regiment even have a military hospital that can be formed and can perform surgery.
As for a military-level military hospital, it has tens of hundreds of people, which can be called huge.
Of course, such a large scale is in contrast to the Manchurian army.
After all, for most old-fashioned armies, the medic was only an existence for officers and even high-ranking generals. For most soldiers in this era, after being injured, they could only pray that God would help them to escape. Even if there is a cure, it may just be a random distribution of herbs, and there is no concept of medical treatment at all.
And at this moment, what appeared in front of Sony was such a medical unit.
They left the ranks with a large number of wounded and returned to the rear where the level of healing was better and there was no need to worry about the fighting. Similarly, they carried prisoners captured in ambush battles.
"Report! Sony-sama, we have found a large number of Ming troops in the city of Shanyu in the south! They occupied the original Yunchuan Wei old city, and repaired the city fortifications, depending on the scale, there were more than 1,000 people stationed inside. Moreover, there are a large number of carriages outside the Yunchuan Acropolis, and looking at the cloth bags on it, it should be a large amount of grain and ...... Ammunition! At that moment, another scout arrived.
Sonny's spirits perked up, and at this moment, he breathed a sigh of relief.
This scout seemed to be much better than the one just now, and he effortlessly pointed out the key information in one breath.
"Good! What's your name? Is it Arsalam? Good! Well done, I'll give you credit! This intelligence is critical, critical! Also, where have they been repairing their fortifications? If you are given 3,000 men, how long will it take you to take them down? Sonny asked, with burning eyes.
Arsalan was silent for a long time, and said: "I'm afraid it will take ten days, the old city is already strong, and the Ming people are repairing and equipped with artillery, and it may be able to be broken in three days in a row." ”
"Ten days!" Hearing this, Sony gritted his teeth and didn't speak again.
He simply didn't have that much time.
At this time, Dahan's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Lord Sony, the last general may have a way." ”
"Oh? What's the idea? Said it in one go! "Sony is a little impatient, this Arsalan can represent the level of the Yellow Flag. But obviously, elite soldiers like Arsalan exist more in the positive yellow flag where the morale of the army is still there. After a series of heavy losses, Dahan's unpopular talent is the status quo of the Yellow Flag.
"The way, it's on these people!" Dahan laughed, finally opened his mind, and said all his plans in one breath: "Moreover, we also brought hundreds of Han military flags, didn't we?" ”
……
In the Yunchuan Acropolis, Wu Wanying got an errand.
"Wan Ying, I just received a report from Kuaima. Our brother troops have won a battle in Yunnei. Good guy, he was ambushed by tens of thousands of Mongolian Tatars on the road and killed the Tartars on their backs, and captured thousands of people on the spot, killing and injuring countless people. Yan Chengcheng, the director of the military hospital at the Yunchuan Guard Station, said happily, and almost danced to express his excitement.
Wu Wanying was also very unhappy when she heard this, and immediately applauded: "Wow, wow." It's a good thing that our warriors have won. Of course, if you have anything you want to do, Dean, just tell me to do it. As you know, students don't have a lot to do on a daily basis here. It's really not good to be an idler. ”
"Haha, self-motivated, not bad." Yan Chengcheng paused, and said in a heavy tone: "This time, of course, we also have to have something to do." Since ancient times, this has been the success of the First World War, that is, after the construction of this military hospital system, some aftermath can be taken care of. In this ambush battle, the losses in the army were not small. ”
"As for me, I will start preparing 300 hospital beds in the military station to accommodate the soldiers who were wounded in this battle. It's just that the person who came to report it was vague. I don't know the specifics either. Of course, there are some medical colleagues in the army going north, but they will definitely follow the army, and I really don't understand the situation of these people who have returned. So, you're going to take the lead and take some people to explore the way and see what is going on. Let's get some preparations. ”
When Wu Wanying heard this, she immediately understood: "This student understands. In that case, the student is set off. I don't bring anyone else with me. One man and one horse come and go freely,"
Yan Chengcheng patted Wu Wanying's shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, then it's hard work." ”
After speaking, Yan Chengcheng went back to work. Just took two steps, as if thinking of something, Yan Chengcheng called back Wu Wanying, who had run away, and stuffed a handcuff over: "As for me, there is nothing else to send you." This is a handcuff issued by a small number of people in the army, and you can use it if you use it, and you can deal with any small trouble if you run into a wild wolf. ”
"This ......" Wu Wanying was about to resign immediately.
But this is in the army, although Yan Chengcheng is a civilian, he is also a bit of a tyrant, and said: "If you want to take it, take it." ”
"Elder Bestow...... Don't dare to ......resign" Wu Wanying suddenly accepted it a little awkwardly, but after getting it, she unconsciously became elated.
Seeing this, Yan Chengcheng left with a smile.
Wu Wanying turned over his horse and galloped north.
He soon encountered a large group of men and horses at a distance of more than ten miles north of the old city of Yunchuanwei.
This team is indeed quite large, especially with a large number of vehicles. There were many Mongols in it. These Mongols were apparently the Mongol captives.
Seeing this, Wu Wanying was even more elated, and when he rushed over, he said to everyone: "Dare to ask, but the main force of the army is retreating?" I am Wu Wanying, a hygienist at the Yunchuan Guard Station, and I heard that there are many wounded soldiers here, so I have come to ask about the situation, so that the station can prepare in time! ”
Ten miles to greet each other, this is a very heavy courtesy.
But when this team heard about it, it was a little strangely quiet.
No one spoke.
It wasn't until no one felt that something was wrong that a middle-aged man came out.
The middle-aged man's face was pale, that is, he was flattering, he walked awkwardly, and he had some uncontrollable cringe, as if he was ready to kneel at any time.
The man saluted Wu Wanying and said, "This little brother...... It's a bad luck for you. ”
"Oh?" Wu Wanying was stunned.
"There's a lot of nonsense, just take it. Asked him if he was willing to recruit the inside story of Yun Chuanwei, and if he was willing, he would stay. If you don't want to, just kill it. Sony's somber voice rang out. (To be continued.) )
