Volume 1 The Fierce and Sorrowful Wind Rises Chapter 68 The Battle of Jinyang (4)
The woods were so big that the soldiers gathered in no time. Except for a few scouts who were monitoring the enemy's movements at the edge of the woods, the rest of the more than a hundred people gathered Lu Yao in the center. Most of them are veterans of the war-hardened military establishment of the state; Others are miscellaneous soldiers who have been recruited from captives in recent months.
These are all warriors who have experienced countless tests of life and death, and they are extremely experienced on the battlefield, and in just half a moment, each of them has made a camouflage for themselves with withered grass, branches, and the like. Lu Yao stood in the center of the soldiers and looked around, almost feeling that he was surrounded by a group of moving haystacks.
Lu Yao could see that many people were at a loss at the moment, and even some people had a little fear in their eyes. But Lu Yao knew very well that all it took was a confident general to show them the way, and they would immediately become indomitable and fierce warriors.
Lu Yao raised his hand and motioned for everyone to pay attention to what he was saying. Then he hurriedly squatted down, so as not to be discovered by the Hu people.
He carefully controlled his voice so that it could not be too loud and that every soldier could hear it: "Brethren! I don't need to say much about the current situation, everyone knows that the Hu people have collided with us. Fortunately, the Hu people hadn't noticed us yet, but we didn't dare to move. This thing is really a bit bluffing, not to mention you, even our Shen army master was panicked just now! ”
Shen Jin was dumbfounded and said, "General, don't belittle me like this!" Where am I panicking? I am...... I'm just in a hurry! ”
Seeing that Shen Jin, who had always been strong and heroic, was deflated, there was a low snickering among the soldiers, and the tense atmosphere was suddenly diluted a lot.
Lu Yao also chuckled a few times, and said: "But Lao Shen is a smart person, he reacted immediately, it is not difficult to get out of this situation, there is no need to panic at all!" We have just discovered that the enemy has slackened and set up a huge barracks, not even a decent sentry post. The brothers are all cavalrymen who come and go like the wind, and it is easy to break through at night! ”
As he spoke, he looked around, paying attention to the reactions of each soldier: "Old Shen's idea is good, but I don't agree!" ”
Lu Yao paused and continued, "Why? Because of the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it seems that the great achievement is at your fingertips, it just depends on whether we have the courage to take it! ”
At this time, every soldier was attracted by Lu Yao's words, and they listened attentively to Lu Yao's continuation: "The enemy army surrounding us, the main general is Qiao Xi. This guy was born as a horse thief, and he had no talent to lead the troops to fight, all because of his cruelty and thirst for killing, and his hands were stained with the blood of the people, so he was regarded as a powerful general by the Huns, and the official worshiped the position of the champion general. Many of the brethren had seen him; Even if you haven't seen it, you must have heard of his reputation. For example, Lao Shen ......"
"Old Shen don't panic, I didn't plan to laugh at you this time......" In the second snicker, Lu Yao pointed at Shen Jin, who was glaring: "For example, Master Shen has even fought Qiao Xi many times on the battlefield. It's a pity that every time he falls short, this butcher escapes the dog's life! ”
"Everyone!" Lu Yao raised a finger and shook it gently: "At this moment, the opportunity has come!" Less than a mile away from us is the base camp of this bullshit champion general Qiao Xi, and they are defenseless! Tonight, as long as we break out, killing him is like killing a guinea dog! ”
"Although the enemy army numbered several thousand, it was divided into Huns, Wuhuan, Qian, and some miscellaneous Hu. They were put together completely improvised for the sake of this big war, and there was a lack of coordination with each other. As long as you kill the enemy's commander, the enemy army does not know the details of our army in the dark night, and loses the command center, and it will definitely collapse without a fight. Defeat a hundredfold enemy in a battle, this is a brilliant victory that has never been seen since the imperial court fought against the Huns, and only such a brilliant victory is worthy of our and the state army's men! Lu Yao waved his fist and said firmly.
"Brethren, there are many among you who have followed me for many years. They clearly know what kind of person I Lu Daoming is, and they are willing to trust me and follow me...... At this moment, I hope you do the same! I want you to trust my judgment and follow me to defeat the enemy and make a difference! He looked around at a pair of attentive eyes around him, and lowered his voice slightly: "How is it?" Do you want to do it? ”
"Well done!" "Well done!" In response to Lu Yao, there was a low roar.
The pre-war mobilization was successfully completed, and if it weren't for the fear of being discovered by the Hu people, the cries of the soldiers would have already broken through the sky. The people who undertook the sentry mission this time were the elites of the Bingzhou army, and they had always been brave and good at fighting, not to mention that their generals never lacked the determination and courage to defeat a strong enemy.
Lu Yao immediately ordered the whole army to rest for two hours, and only wait for the third watch to launch a surprise attack on the enemy. Several major officers were separately summoned together by Lu Yao for specific arrangements.
"The current situation is not as optimistic as we just said, but one thing is certain, only by attacking the enemy's base camp at night and destroying the command center of the Huns in one fell swoop can we win the opportunity to transfer safely." After Lu Yao briefly introduced the situation, he pointed to the sketch of the enemy's camp drawn by Fang Caicai and assigned the tasks one by one:
"Although the enemy army is lax and unprepared, after all, the soldiers and horses are dozens of times larger than mine. If they react in time, we will inevitably be surrounded by no one but to die. Therefore, what we have to do is to distract them and force them into chaos and have no time to take care of their camp. Shen Jin! ”
"In!"
"The large camp on the north side of the enemy army was the resting place of the Qiang and Wuhuan warriors, who were more undisciplined than the Xiongnu and were prone to unrest. I'll give you thirty people, be sure to harass them, delay their reactions, and make them unable to come back in time! Lu Yao paused and continued, "Just give me a moment's time. A moment later, no matter whether you can kill Qiao Xi or not, you will bring people closer to me and break through together. ”
Shen Jin took a step forward and said solemnly: "Obey!" ”
"The large battalion on the south side of the enemy army is mainly the grain, grass, baggage and other goods of the rear army, and most of the gold and silk of the children captured and plundered are also stored here, and there are horses and livestock grazing areas. Zhu Sheng, you bring twenty people over, kill people and set fires at will, you must create a momentum, mess up the situation, and let the enemy's rear army have no time to take care of anything else! Like Shen Jin, you also have to fight for a quarter of an hour, and after a moment, you will move closer to me to break through! ”
"Yes!" Perhaps he didn't expect to take on this heavy responsibility, Zhu Sheng was so excited that his voice was hoarse. Lu Yao glanced at him and said in a solemn tone: "If there is an enemy from the rear army to help within a moment, you might as well die there, and you don't have to join me!" ”
"Obey the general's orders!" Zhu Sheng nodded awe-inspiringly.
The branch in Lu Yao's hand slammed into the center of the sketch: "This is the enemy's base camp, I personally led a hundred cavalry to directly assault it and cut off Qiao Xi's dog's head!" ”
"Chu Kun! Yang Ruo! Wei Ping! Tao Yan! The four of you will follow me to assault the enemy camp. Once we entered the enemy camp, Chu Kun was responsible for covering the left flank, Yang Ruo was responsible for covering the right flank, and Wei Ping and Tao Yan followed me closely. Everyone must move forward resolutely, and must not worry about the rear, our vitality and chance of victory are only in Qiao Xi alone! ”
These four people are the other four chiefs in Lu Yao's barracks besides Zhu Sheng. Among them, Chu Kun took the initiative to ask for Lu Yao to join Lu Yao with a number of soldiers when Jicheng was reorganizing the army; Although he is young, he has a calm and measured personality, and after He Yun was transferred, he actually assumed the responsibility of the commander of the army. Yang Ruo was born as a herdsman in Bingzhou, his family died early and did not have a big name, because of his youth, he was called "Ah Ruo" by his companions, and he was a warrior with great riding and archery skills. Wei Ping and Tao Yan are also both fierce officers who dare to fight.
At that moment, the four of them said in unison: "Order!" ”
At this moment, the new moon has not yet reached the middle of the sky, and there is still a long time before the third watch. The soldiers who were walking in the forest were resting on their own, and some of them were hurrying to eat some dry food. Lu Yao glanced around at everyone, clapped his hands and said: "Okay, let's go and rest for a while, and when the day of defeating the Huns, I will definitely ask the lord for credit!" Whether a man can glorify his ancestors depends on today's battle! ”
