Chapter 72 Little Trial
One day after the correction in Huangzhou, Liu Fa found Wen Shen and asked for instructions: "Our 150,000 people have been assembled. May I ask if we are going to set off when we are going to go?" Wen Shen was shocked and asked quietly: "Did you send troops to attack Xia before?" Liu Fa said: "Yes, there are not many 150,000, and there are only more than 100,000 soldiers in the real battle. The others are responsible for transporting food and grass."
Wenshen looked at the map and said, "How many soldiers do you have in Qingtang City and Xige City?" Liu Fa looked at Wenshen and said, "Qingtang City was originally the capital of the Tongka Kingdom of the Ossila tribe, where more than 10,000 soldiers were guarded. There were also more than 8,000 soldiers in Xige City." Wenshen asked, "How many people from Qingtang City are about now?" Liu Fa thought for a while and said, "There are about 200,000."
Wen Shen was shocked and said, "So many people from the Yasila tribe, will they rebel if we attack Xia?"
Liu Fa thought for a while and said, "There is this possibility. By the way, the people of the Oshila tribe in Xige City may also use a knife behind their backs." Wenshen stared at the map without saying a word. Liu Fa looked at Wenshen in a hurry. Suddenly, Wenshen turned to look at Liu Fa and smiled, "Tomorrow you will lead 20,000 infantry and cavalry to attack Xia north with me, and the others stayed in Huangzhou to shock the Oshila tribe in Qingtang City."
The Yesila tribe is a branch of Tubo. It once established the influential Tsongkha Kingdom in the Huangshui River Basin and has always been separated from the Song and Xia countries. In the first year of Daguan in the Song Dynasty, it was destroyed by Tong Guan's army and established the current Xihe Road. The current Huangzhou, Hezhou, Jishi Army and others are all the territory of the Tsongkha Kingdom.
After the destruction of the Tsongkha Kingdom, the Ossila tribe had been secretly interfering with the Western Xia and Tubo conspiring against the Song army. Therefore, Tong Guan sent heavy troops to guard the Song army in Huangzhou to prevent accidents. Among them, Xisheluosa and Doroba, the leader of the Ossila tribe, relied on the Western Xia to organize nearly 10,000 troops to fight against the Song army in the northern part of Huangzhou.
This time, Wenshen went north to invade Xixia, the first thing he wanted to do was to kill the remnants of the Tsongkha Kingdom led by Xisherosa and Doropa.
When Liu Fa heard that Wen Shen had only 20,000 people, he was surprised and said, "National Master, isn't it a little short of only 20,000 people?" Wen Shen looked at the map and replied absent-mindedly: "What, you are scared." Liu Fa smiled and glared: "I'm afraid, Liu Fa has never been afraid of anything since I was a child."
Wenshen looked back at Liu Fa and smiled and said, "Just be afraid."
...
The next morning, Wenshen and Liu Fa led 25,000 infantry and cavalry to march northward. One day later, they arrived at Nanzong Fort in the north of Huangzhou. From Nanzong Fort to the north, they were the remnants of the Tsongkha Kingdom.
After resting in Nanzong Fort overnight, Wenshen and Liu Fa gathered their troops and began to march north again. Since this time it was within the enemy's sphere of influence, Liu Fa and Wenshen sent a large number of spies to explore the way before.
It was already September, and the altitude was relatively high, and Huangzhou was already cool. Wenshen's troops were all wearing wool sweaters. Both sides of the road ahead were tall mountains, and the trees as thick as three people on the mountain were unconscious. Birds cries came from time to time in the quiet forest.
When it was noon, the guard quickly ran to Wenshen and saluted: "The commissioner came to report to the front and found that the unknown armed forces should be Li Xia or the Tubo army.
Wenshen took out the iPad and called out the stand-alone version of Google Map, found the current possible location, and looked depressed. The current location of Wenshen is not only mountains but also mountains, but it is about a hundred miles north of the Gobi Desert, which is a good place for tractors to drive. Now, tractors are not only consuming fuel but also dyingly slow when walking on the mountain road.
This was when Liu Fa received a report from his spy, came to Wen Shen, clasped his fists and said, "The National Master, I found nearly 10,000 troops of the Yasila tribe ahead." Wen Shen asked, "How should Liu Jingluo think we should face the enemy?" Liu Fa smiled and said, "There is nothing to say about these mobs. Just press the army to kill them all."
Wen Shen laughed and said, "How many soldiers do we have to lose with this kind of fighting style?" Liu Fa thought for a while and returned, "You need more than a thousand people," Wen Shen smiled and said, "Liu Jingluo said it so easily, more than a thousand people, and you will be gone after you say this."
Liu Fa didn't care and said, "There is no immortal in war." Wenshen sneered, "Okay, Liu Jingluo will be in the back of our army in the future, and our army will attack this time."
Liu Fa also wanted to see the legendary magical equipment, so he clasped his fists and said, "Get order!"
The spies ahead continued to report on the enemy's location and situation. According to the report, Wenshen quickly rushed to a canyon not far ahead. On both sides of the canyon are mountains that are high into the sky. The canyon is more than 100 meters wide and about 1,000 meters long. It is also a major transportation route. Wenshen looked at it and thought it was an excellent blocking holy place.
Wenshen picked up the intercom and shouted: "The first battalion is ready to fight!"
"Received!" Chao said excitedly.
"Hear it, the company commanders, the first combat mission will be carried out by our first battalion. We will instruct our soldiers to check weapons and ammunition and set up defenses in the canyon ahead."
...
A quarter of an hour later, the battalion of six hundred people rushed to the front of the team, and one of them lined up to block the canyon. The first row was thirty heavy machine guns, and the two rows of infantry were squatting in one row and standing in one row. Finally, there was a row, and the last was free shooting.
Wenshen and Liu Fa sat behind the first battalion with one chair, and chatted while drinking tea. Liu Fa was a little disbelief and said, "National Master, this can work, why are my legs trembling?" Wenshen smiled and said, "Relax, isn't it just a war? As for it, come and have a tea." As he said, Wenshen picked up the tea cups on the tea table between the two chairs, used the lid of the cup to skim the tea leaves on it, took a sip of it gently, and smiled and said, "Good tea!"
"Grass." Liu Fa put down the teacup, stood up, and wiped his clothes with his hands to tea. At this moment, ten thousand cavalry soldiers appeared on the other end of the canyon. The leader was a short and strong man in his thirties, wearing a felt hat, a big red disc face but a hooked nose, riding a maroon horse, looking at the battalion of soldiers in front of him with fierce eyes.
Next to this person was an old man in his fifties looking forward with a suspicious look on his face and said to the man next to him: "Your Highness, the front does not look like the Song army. What's wrong with the character on the coach's flag behind him is Chinese characters, it should be Song army. When did the Song army change their clothes, and the machinery seems to be different from before. Will there be any fraud?"
The short and strong man held Mo Dao on his left waist hard and replied, "If you have any fraud, you have to rush. They are only a few hundred people. We tens of thousands of elite riders are afraid that he will not succeed?"
The old man worried, "Your Highness, why don't we send a team of troops to try first, just in case." The short and strong man felt reasonable and said, "Okay." As he said that, he turned to a general behind him and shouted, "Ancient Dragon, you lead your troops to attack the Song army's defense line in front."
The ancient dragon man was tall and strong, wearing armor and holding a sledgehammer, shouting, "Get order!" At this time, looking at Song Jun with a strange shape and a strange equipment in front of him, he thought to himself: "A mere few hundred people, two thousand elite cavalry in my army would charge him and flatten him. The prince was good to me, and he thought to me about good things." Thinking of this, the ancient dragon man looked at the short and strong man with a little gratitude.
Wen Shen held a telescope and looked at the group of foreign soldiers holding big blades and sneered, "These groups of foreign soldiers are not good." Liu Fa next to him scratched his heart like a cat. Looking at the telescope in Wen Shen's hand, he heard Wen Shen's question and replied absent-mindedly: "Yes, it's just a group of native chickens and dogs. National Master, what kind of equipment is this thing in your hand? It seems that you can see the situation of the foreign soldiers in front of you."
Wen Shen smiled, handed the telescope to Liu Fa, and said, "You can see it yourself." Liu Fa hurriedly took the telescope and put it in front of him as Wen Shen. He saw that the foreign soldiers in front of him seemed to have been pulled in front of him, and he was immediately visible. Liu Fa trembled his hand and almost dropped the telescope to the ground. After stabilizing his body, he shouted, "What kind of equipment is this national master? It's so magical! It's so amazing!" While saying, he was also very excited.
"The national teacher is not good, a foreign general rushed over with his men." Liu Fa put down the telescope in his hand and turned to Wen Shen and said in shock. Wen Shen took a sip of tea and smiled, "Calm, calm."
More than 2,000 Tubo cavalry, led by the ancient dragon, rushed towards the Song army. The sound of horses stepping on the ground seemed particularly loud in the canyon. The tea cup on the tea table next to Wenshen made a "clog" sound, and tea splashed out from the tea cup from time to time. The machine gunner lying on the ground in front stared at the foreign soldiers in the distance, and his hands holding the machine gun tightly relaxed gently. The cold air entered his palms through the gap, making the machine gunner feel comfortable.
In less than a minute, the foreign soldiers rushed to the middle of the canyon and saw the Song army that was close to each other. The ancient dragon man raised two hammers with both hands, his eyes turned red and turned around and shouted loudly, "Run!" After shouting, he clamped his mount with his legs, and his speed increased a little more. When the foreign soldiers behind heard the shout, they all pulled out their long swords, screamed and rushed forward.
Ten seconds later, the foreign soldiers rushed to 200 meters ahead. Wenshen picked up the walkie-talkie, looked at the foreign soldiers who were bowing their heads in front and bent down and sprinting, and shouted coldly: "Let's fire!"
"Let's fire!" Wang Chao, the battalion commander of the first battalion, yelled. Then the company commanders also yelled: "Let's fire!"
"Dadada..." The first row of thirty heavy machine guns fired at the same time, and thirty tongues of flames were like the sickle of the god of death, harvesting the lives of the foreign soldiers in front.
The ancient dragon man was racing to the speeding suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw a blood hole as big as a fist on his chest armor. Then he had darkened his eyes and didn't know anything. The cavalry who followed him before sprinted in front fell off the horse one after another like a duck going into the water. Some horses fell head on the ground and threw the foreign soldiers on their backs to the ground. As soon as the foreign soldiers were about to get up, they were stepped into meat paste by the horses behind them.
Seeing this, the foreign soldiers in front were frightened and wanted to retreat, but the high-speed horse team was the one he wanted to turn around and could only rush forward with a tough bullet.
