Chapter 494: The Military Parade (9)
By this time, forty or fifty people on each side had been wounded and out, and more than ten of them were seriously injured and basically found it difficult to stand up, and some wounded soldiers who were far away from the battle were carried out of the field by the soldiers on duty at the scene. However, there are also some soldiers who are lying on the ground, because there is still fighting nearby, and the soldiers who rescue them cannot rush over, so they cannot save them, so they can only wait for the battlefield to move, or rely on the wounded soldiers' own strength to get out of the battlefield.
However, Gao Yuan has also been prepared for this, and on the stand on the left side of the central high platform, fifty women of the Bailing clan were arranged to give first aid to the wounded. And Yun Yao couldn't sit still on the high platform, so she also ran to the stands to help and organize the daughters and children of the Bai Ling clan, Yun Yao has enough experience in this regard.
At this time, the battle was still raging, in fact, there were many soldiers who were fighting with injuries, but at this time, the defensive formation composed of more than 50 soldiers of the Changjie Army was less than 40 people left, and during this time, the commander of the Xiongjie Army was also mobilizing personnel, concentrating more than 20 sword and shield soldiers, holding shields in a row to press the Changjie Army, and the Changjie soldiers who were defending in the inner layer were all pikemen, so in the face of the pressure of the sword and shield soldiers with shields, there were also some people who had nothing to do, and some people raised their spears, The shield was blocked with the barrel of the gun, and some people simply threw away the spear, grabbed the opponent's shield with their hands, and squeezed it.
But the number of Changjie's army was too small after all, and behind a few sword and shield soldiers, there were still two or three soldiers pushing again, while the other soldiers were scattered around, desperately resisting the attack of other Changjie soldiers.
As a result, the defense line composed of the Changjie army finally couldn't resist, and was squeezed open a gap by the soldiers of the Xiongjie army, and the soldiers of the Xiongjie army carrying the flag were squeezed into the gap little by little under the protection of several soldiers.
When the trumpets sounded, the soldiers stopped fighting, and the victorious army cheered. Although the Changjie army was still a little angry, they still packed up their weapons, picked up their wounded companions, and retreated, leaving only the soldiers of the Xiongjie army in the field cheering and excited. At this time, the soldiers guarding the site also came over one after another to carry the wounded soldiers for treatment.
Gao Yuan was very satisfied with the result of this battle, and said: "Yes, this is indeed a wonderful competition, both armies are very good, it seems that General Yuan and General Sima really have a way to train the army, so they can train such two armies." β
Seeing that his subordinate army won and won the first place with enough weight, Sima Shang was naturally very happy in his heart, and after listening to Gao Yuan's praise, Sima Shang was even more excited, so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth, and said: "The lord has won the award, in fact, we won this battle is indeed a bit of a fluke, General Yuan's army actually lost a little unjustly, if we fight again, we may not be able to take the prize." β
Yuan Xuan said: "You dead horse, don't come to this set, winning is winning, losing is losing, what do you say?" Do you think my old Yuan can't afford to lose? β
Sima Shang was also a little embarrassed, and he didn't know what to say for a while, but fortunately, Gao Yuan hurriedly gave a round and said: "Okay, okay, didn't you say it a long time ago!" These competitions are just a game, and you don't have to worry about winning or losing. It really has to be divided into high and low, and then go to the battlefield to divide it later. β
Sima Shang listened, and hurriedly borrowed the ladder to go down the wall, and said: "What the lord said is that this kind of competition is indeed like a game, who is strong and who is weak, you still have to wait on the battlefield to see it, in fact, whether it is our Xiongjie army or General Yuan's Changjie army, it is actually inferior to the Beiwei army on the battlefield, but the Beiwei army was defeated early, so this kind of competition does not need to be taken seriously." β
Gao Yuan smiled: "But I think the two commanders who fought this time are doing well, and they may be able to achieve great things in the future." β
The generals who have been promoted from the grassroots level are generally relatively strong in personal combat effectiveness, but only rely on personal bravery, and there is a limit to their achievements after all, when a captain or even a chief is okay, but the chief and the hundred chief are a little exempt from being strong, and if you want to do five hundred long, a thousand commanders, even higher, only personal courage is absolutely useless, you must have a considerable command and combat ability, the two commanders who fought this time are all hundred chiefs, and they can command these two hundred people to this Cheng dΓΉ, and they can also deal with it randomly, which is really good, Therefore, their future development achievements will of course be much greater than others.
Yuan Xuan nodded at this time and said: "The lord is right, the command ability of these two people is really good, it is a bit stubborn to be a hundred chiefs, and it is more than enough to be a five hundred commanders or a thousand commanders." I never thought that there would be such a figure in my army. β
Sima Shang also said: "Yes, the last general is indeed a little derelict in his duties, and he didn't even find that his subordinates still have such talents, and after this parade is over, he must be promoted to his military position." β
Gao Yuan smiled: "I can't blame you, the Yanmen Legion and the Shanggu Legion have two or three hundred chiefs, and you can't know every one of them, but I think there is no need to promote the military positions of the two of them for the time being, first, it is useless, and the achievements made in the parade and competition have already been rewarded, and there is no need for another award, and the two of them have not made meritorious contributions on the battlefield, and they have been promoted rashly, which is also against our military regulations; Second, in this kind of competition, the performance is excellent, and it may not be possible to have a good performance on the real battlefield, and it may not be a good thing to promote the two of them to five hundred commanders and thousand commanders, so it is still for the time being or they are still serving as a hundred commanders for the time being, and after making meritorious contributions on the battlefield in the future, they will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and it is not too late to be promoted. If the two of them are really capable, they will definitely be able to make meritorious contributions on the battlefield. β
Sima Shang nodded and said, "The lord is right, is it too simple to think about it, or is the lord thinking more thoughtful." β
Yuan Xuan also said: "Yes, it's good to let them be trained more." β
As a few people spoke, the commanders of the two armies came up to the high platform on behalf of the whole army and saw the plateau.
After seeing the plateau, the two reported their names, the commander of the Xiongjie Army is called Huang Cang, and the commander of the Changjie Army is called Fan Bin, both of whom joined the Dai Army after the plateau entered the Dai County, because of their military merits, they were gradually promoted to Baichang, in fact, these two people are not very old, Huang Cang is only in his early thirties, and Fan Bin is not yet thirty years old.
After seeing the salute, Gao Yuan said: "Huang Cang, Fan Bin, the two of you are both good today, you command properly, and you can adapt to the situation, it is really rare, but this parade is just an ordinary competition, you don't have to care about the victory or defeat, I just hope that you can have a good performance on the battlefield in the future." β
When Huang Cang and Fan Bin heard this, they were also quite excited, and hurriedly saluted Gao Yuan, saying, "We must not meet the expectations of the lord." β
Gao Yuan nodded, and rewarded each of them with an iron dismantling knife and a set of armor, while each of the participating soldiers was rewarded with five hundred copper coins, and the injured soldiers were all handed over to the Bailing clan for treatment.
After Huang Cang and Fan Bin thanked the plateau and retreated, they immediately continued the last competition, a collective horse battle.
The Fan Yong Army and the Xiao Cavalry Army that fought were both armies belonging to the Wu'an Legion, which could be regarded as a civil war between the Wu'an Legion.
However, unlike the battle of wits and courage in the process of the competition between the infantry troops, the competition of the cavalry army is not so complicated, although the use of long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows is prohibited, but the advantage of the Fan Yong Army is still not small, after all, the soldiers of the Fan Yong Army basically grew up on horseback.
Moreover, the steppe nomads are not unable to fight in groups, because grazing on the grassland, fighting against wolves, and competing with other tribes for pasture all require group battles, so the steppe nomads are proficient in team combat with each other and cooperation, plus their riding skills are skillful. If it is a one-on-one competition, the advantage of riding may not be the decisive factor, but in this kind of group competition, the riding advantage of the Fan Yongjun is very large.
In the face of absolute superiority, no tactics can play any role, so this time after the competition, the Fan Yongjun did not adopt any complicated tactics in the face of any opponent, but only divided into three roads, fought hard, first beat the opponent to most of the horse, and then easily took the flag away and won the victory. Although some opponents also came up with some clever tactics and even pulled down the flag first, they all ended up defeating without exception.
And this competition is no exception, although the Xiao Cavalry is also considered to be strong among the cavalry of the Dai Army, before the formation of the Fan Yong Army, it is second to none in the Dai Jun cavalry, but compared with the Fan Yong Army, there is still a distance. Therefore, at the beginning of the competition, the Fan Yong Army launched a full-scale attack on the Xiao Cavalry Army, and the battle only lasted for more than half an hour, nearly half of the soldiers of the Xiao Cavalry Army were shot down and dismounted, and the number of the Fan Yong Army was only more than half of the soldiers who fell off the horse of the Xiao Cavalry Army, and then the soldiers of the Fan Yong Army rushed to the high platform, set out the flag, inserted back into their own formation, and won the victory.
When Gao Yuan saw it, he couldn't help but sigh that the combat effectiveness of the Fan Yong Army was indeed too strong, and it seemed that it was indeed necessary to expand the establishment of the Fan Yong Army.
By this time, all the items of this parade had been completely completed, and the army had certainly boosted its morale and morale from this parade, and even the people of Daijun felt very satisfied, after all, such a lively situation was not always a chance to see.
After watching all the parades, Tian Kezang finally understood why the Dai army had been able to achieve so many victories in recent years, and the limelight even surpassed that of the Qin army, so he was completely relieved to leave his son Tian Zhan and 2,000 elite private soldiers in Dai County, train with the Dai army, and return to Qi by himself.
