Chapter 595: The Battle of Luring the Enemy
The two wounds on his body did not hit the vital point, and for He Jin, who crawled out of the sea of blood in the mountain of corpses, it was no different from a mosquito bite. Just when he was boosting his morale and ready to rush forward in one go. The 2,000 thieves were stunned by what they saw, and the officers and soldiers who had just formed a formation to try to counterattack had already collapsed without a fight, and they spread their legs and fled for their lives.
This made He Jin anxious, and finally got the fat in his mouth, how could he be willing to watch it run away like this? What's more, he was hit by two guns of the official army. "The officers and troops are defeated! Kill them all! Rush, rush to Lao Tzu! ”
He Jin ran wildly, and a wound on his thigh was affected by the violent movement, and immediately there was unbearable pain, and he immediately felt cramps. Finally, after a few steps, he couldn't bear it anymore, and He Jin's body lost its balance and fell forward. The pro-soldiers were quick with their hands and eyes, and before He Jin fell, they had already helped their big leader up.
"The big boss is injured!"
Only then did the soldiers around him find out that their big boss was injured, and someone immediately shouted at the top of their voices: "The big boss is injured!" The big boss is injured! ”
The effect of this sentence can be said to be as high as 500 officers and soldiers, and the morale of the thieves and soldiers who had just been boosted suddenly fell to the bottom. The news of the big leader's injury spread like a plague in the ranks, and they didn't know how serious the big leader's injuries were, but the big boss was indeed crumbling just now, if he hadn't been held back by his own soldiers, he would have fallen and gnawed on the mud at this moment!
For a while, the pursuit of the two thousand thieves was scattered and slowed down! He Jin was angry in his heart, he was almost angry with his own soldiers, he had been fighting for nearly ten years, and he had been injured countless times, this small injury would not have killed him at all, if he hadn't insisted on running quickly, he wouldn't have affected the wound on his leg, and his thigh cramped because of the pain.
"Shut up the fuck, Lao Tzu is not dead! Whoever fucking talks nonsense again, gouges out his tongue and feeds it to the dogs! ”
The soldiers looked at each other, and no one dared to speak again, but the momentum of the pursuit was finally dulled. After the thieves stopped, they saw the big boss jumping like thunder, and they breathed a sigh of relief, and the big leader could still jump up and down to get angry, thinking that the injury would not be too serious.
Unexpectedly, He Jin's thunderous jump could also become one of the factors that stabilized the morale of the army.
This time, it was the most junior battalion of the 3,000 Three Guards who led the men and horses of the battalion to lure the enemy, and it was formed by Li Xin after recovering Taiyuan City and recruiting Liangjiazi around Taiyuan Mansion. Therefore, although Li Xin often juxtaposes this battalion with the old battalion of the Three Guards, they always feel the arrogance of the old battalion and try to change the situation. They repeatedly charged on the front line, such as this time to lure the enemy, and the battalion officer took the initiative to ask for help.
When the battalion officer saw the thieves chasing after him, he felt that he had done a great job, and he ordered all the soldiers to pretend to be birds and beasts and scatter, but when he was halfway through the run, he turned back to check the situation, but saw that the thieves had stopped. The battalion officer secretly said that it was not good, if he ran back like this, there was a good chance that the gang of thieves would not be able to continue the pursuit, but if they fought back at this time to lure the enemy, they were afraid that they would immediately expose their intentions. After hesitation, the battalion officer ordered everyone to stop retreating and stay put!
"Look, general, there's another person in the city!"
The battalion officer was awarded the title of general when he was rewarded in Beijing City, and he could barely be called a general, he followed the soldier's hope, and sure enough, he saw the black and oppressive thieves rushing out of Linhuai City, and the scale was no less than 10,000 people!
The battalion officer was immediately overjoyed, and he was worried about not knowing how to lure the other party into pursuit, but he didn't expect to catch such a rare and rare big fish at one time.
"Everyone concentrate, listen to my orders, and be ready to flee at any time!"
As soon as the battalion officer's order came out, he couldn't help but want to laugh, it was the first time since ancient times that he had heard that escaping needed to be ordered to act in unison! Xindao: 10,000 thieves have become fish and meat on the chopping block this time, just wait for the general to annihilate these people in one fell swoop, with the merits of this battle, I am afraid that it will be nine times out of ten to be promoted to deputy general! Thinking of this, the battalion officer actually smiled proudly, and then felt that such a chaotic mess was really unseemly, even if he ran away, he had to run away vigorously, so he roared again: "Array!" ”
As the elite of the Three Guards, the first subject of Ping Suri's training was this array of queues, and now he has long been familiar with it, like an arm and a finger, hundreds of people blink an eye, and they are lined up in five rows of horizontal lines.
"Turn back!"
Another loud order, only listening to the sound of ho-ho, hundreds of horizontal teams suddenly turned in place, from facing away from the thief soldiers to facing the thief soldiers!
"End the gun!"
Everyone moved in unison, raised the arquebus in their hands, and aimed at the thieves fifty paces in front of them.
"Big leader, officers and soldiers, ah no, the broilers have stopped again!"
Hearing this, He Jin stood up and looked over, and sure enough, the officers and soldiers stopped at a distance of about fifty steps from them, and seemed to be lined up again, not knowing what to do. So he sneered again and again: "I really don't know whether to live or die!" Send the order down, let the men and horses who have just left the city be divided into 5,000, half of them will attack the left flank of the official army, and half will attack the right flank of the official army! The rest of the men and horses followed the big leader to attack the official army head-on! ”
He Jin has been fighting for a long time, and he has also learned the appearance of the officers and soldiers, and likes to arrange the troops, especially in front of him, just to practice the tactics of the thieves under his command. Attacking a mere 100-strong army with a huge army of 10,000 people is as easy as a cannon hitting a mosquito or a man trampling an ant to death, and his purpose is to make a good play of this group of officers and soldiers.
"Big boss, look, the broilers don't know whether they are alive or dead, and they're back!"
Sure enough, the group of officers and soldiers actually lined up again and came to them step by step. He Jin had been carried away by the anxiety and anger brought about by the pain and pain, and when he saw that the officers and soldiers were lined up in a neat phalanx, they actually launched an active attack on him, and he had a deep sense of contempt.
"Listen to Lao Tzu's orders and prepare for battle!"
The thieves were originally lying or sitting, and after hearing the words, they all got up one after another, ready to wipe out the five hundred people at any time, but the reason why the big boss delayed the attack order seemed to be waiting for the people who would go out of the city after that, so wouldn't the benefits be thinned, the wolves were more and less meat, and the property on these five hundred people was afraid that everyone might not be able to share it, and the thieves and soldiers all had their own careful thoughts, hoping that the big boss would give the attack order quickly, but He Jin stared at the officers and soldiers who were approaching step by step and did not react. Vaguely, He Jin also felt that this group of officers and soldiers seemed to be a little strange, and their behavior was unreasonable. It stands to reason that 500 people against 10,000 people, unless the main general has a brain problem and is mentally abnormal, the first reaction should be to pull out his legs and run away! And this group of officers and soldiers is good, not only did they not run, but instead of retreating, they advanced, which is really a strange thing!
Immediately, He Jin was relieved again, he has tens of thousands of soldiers, let you play tricks with thousands of people, what can you do with me? He Jin saw that the official army was less than thirty steps away from him, and the people and horses who were rushing behind him were still some distance away from him, he suddenly remembered the terrifying salvo of the official army before, and his body couldn't help but shiver! He regretted that he hurried out of the city, and did not have time to put on the Mingguang armor that had been captured from a Ming army adjutant general. If there is a clear light armor to protect the body, it will definitely not be two guns of the officers and soldiers in the body!
However, until now, he can only grit his teeth and hold on, He Jin knows very well what kind of virtue these thieves under his command are, as long as he, the main general, has the slightest intention of retreating, they will run faster than anyone else, and run faster than anyone else. I can't say it, I can only stand here and be forced to receive a salvo from the official army!
Who would have thought that He Jin gritted his teeth and waited for the salvo of the officers and soldiers, but he didn't see movement for a long time, and he couldn't help but open his eyes in surprise, but he saw that the officers and troops were lined up neatly, arrayed about thirty steps away from him, and they were staring at them, and the muzzles of the guns with black holes in the guns of the fire guns were pointed directly at them.
He Jin took a long breath, it turned out to be a false alarm, and he thought that the officers and soldiers would not die, it turned out that they also knew that it was powerful, and they thought that they knew that they would not escape death, so they made a desperate plan for a while. If this is the case, to teach people to be admired, I have never seen the officers and soldiers die like returning home under such a disadvantage! For some reason, a trace of respect for the officers and soldiers in front of him rose in He Jin's heart.
At the same time, the 5,000 men and horses on the left and right flanks also slowly entered the battlefield, and they had the posture of encircling the officers and troops with He Jin's direct subordinates.
"Kill!"
He Jinqing picked up the steel knife and roared hoarsely. All the thieves rushed straight to the lamb to the slaughter like rabbits. Due to the injuries on his body, He Jin stood in place, watching the thieves under his command move forward step by step, and the expected sound of fire finally sounded.
He Jin was surprised to find that only five hundred people could use the fire to bring his thousands of people to a standstill, and soon the battlefield was suddenly shrouded in thick white gunsmoke, gradually blocking his vision.
Five volleys were fired in a row, and although not many people were injured and killed, the shock caused by the powerful and sustained fire in a short period of time was unprecedented. The multiple shocks of sight, hearing, and smell in the volley of muskets are far more powerful than the rain of arrows falling like rain. Because of this, just by relying on a few hundred people, the thousands of thieves in front of him were defeated.
The battalion commander who led the team felt that the time was ripe, so he resolutely ordered, "All turn back and run at full speed!" ”
Taking advantage of the white smoke that permeated the battlefield, hundreds of soldiers of the Three Guards rushed all the way and began a great retreat. The thieves cautiously tried to advance in the smoke of gunpowder, and when they found that the official army had retreated, they hurriedly chased after them regardless of a qiē!
