Chapter 1172 Rise of the Republic Eighteen

When the bitter north wind stopped whistling, the Liao soldiers marching on the ice also heard cheers coming from afar.

However, when the cheers came to their ears, they were no longer so loud, so they did not cause much anxiety.

In contrast, the frequent battles between scouts and long-distance horses made the Liao soldiers even more nervous. Most of the Liao soldiers who went to fight today were dismounted cavalry, that is, they had horses but did not ride, and went out on foot. The reason for this arrangement was related to the terrain near Lushun Pass City.

Although this place is not all mountainous, it is not very open. Most of them will encounter many Youzhou army camps and walls, and there is not much room for cavalry to play. And they also have to march on the ice, and they may even fight on the ice. The role of cavalry is not too great.

Although the team scouts, the long-distance horses are fighting happily now. They are all good players on horseback, and their formations are relatively loose during battles. Ordinary cavalry are not at this level and they have to form formations to attack. If a few of the cavalry slip in a while, it will be in chaos.

Therefore, less than one-quarter of the elite troops sent by Yelu Yanxi today, that is, less than 7,000 soldiers were riding horses. Others, whether they were the main soldiers and auxiliary soldiers, were advancing on foot.

Although they were advancing on foot, they were still cavalry and were still expert in cavalry fighting. They were all a little surprised to see the scouts of the Youzhou Army running on the ice, launching harassing attacks from time to time, and fighting with the Liao army who drove them away, they were all a little surprised.

The cavalry of Youzhou Army is really strong!

“How far is it?”

Xiao Fengxian, the "Foreign Commander-in-Chief" of the Liao Army, suddenly asked tonight.

"Sir, it's almost here."

The answer to him was Xiao Naye, Xiao Fengxian's second son, whose Chinese name was "Yu". He had married Yelu Yanxi's eldest daughter and was the son-in-law of the current dynasty. At the same time, he was Yelu Yanxi's nephew (nephew of the church), and his mother (Xiao Fengxian's wife) was Yelu Chun's daughter. This top of the Great Liao Kingdom, he really had a family, and he was basically a family!

"Send people to give birth to the Shun Kingdom Juzhen Ayu, and Zhao Sandu is called!" Xiao Fengxian said, "Let their people also retreat and let the Feiying Army send people to the top."

Of course, Xiao Fengxian didn't see the hard work of the Shun Kingdom Jurchens and wanted them to rest. Instead, he wanted to treat this "barbarian" unit as a trump card.

These are nearly 600 Jurchen warriors! Wherever they are, they are all a trump card!

After sending the cavalry, Xiao Yu also asked his father: "Sir, will Shunguo Jurchens be the electoral spear later?"

Xiao Fengxian shook his head, "Take them with you and give you all the 1,000 armored cavalry of the Feilong Army. When the fight starts, just rush to the Youzhou Army's big tube team."

I know to use cavalry to rush cannons!

Yelu Yanxi and Xiao Fengxian are still making quite rapid progress...

"Okay, let it be left to the child!"

Xiao Fengxian glanced at his son and lowered his voice: "Yu'er, just let the two kings of Shunguo's daughter Zhi lead the team. Don't be stupid!"

"Kid know, kid remembers it!"

...

"Hurry, hurry up, keep up! Carry your Tianjin crossbow!"

Zhang Erdan, the commander of the fourth team of the First Battalion of the Eighth Generals of the Army, led his group of crossbowmen (equivalent to platoons) to march quickly while shouting.

"I will remember it all! I won't blow the whistle later, no one is allowed to fire a crossbow! Otherwise, I'll just serve the whip, and I will remember it once! Do you know? Du Guoliang, especially you!"

"I understand!" Du Guoliang responded loudly, subconsciously feeling a pain on his back.

He would use crossbows before joining the army and shoot very accurately. So during training, there were several times when he wanted to show himself too much that he fired the crossbows before the officer issued the order... The result was naturally a whip!

However, if you go to the battlefield, you will not be beaten. You have to remember the big mistakes! This is not a joke. One big mistake can be offset by one big effort, three times, or nine times, and nine times! Otherwise, it will affect the reward of merit after the war... For "poor and lower-middle peasants", not being able to judge merit means losing 200 acres of land and citizenship.

For primary school students like Du Guoliang, it means losing the opportunity to enter Yuntai Academy! The admission notice of Yuntai Academy can be exchanged for military merits. Those with small contributions will be extra points, and those with big contributions will be directly recommended.

If Du Guoliang can save one great merit (nine minor merits or three merits), he can enter the Department of Law of Yuntai Academy after passing the basic exam (only passing the exam).

By the time he graduated from the Law Department, he would be able to enter the officialdom as a double elite with military merits and law diplomas.

So, you must not slip your hands again this time, otherwise the trouble will be big...

...

"Save the laws of nature! Destroy the captives! Divide the fields..."

Master Zhu and the second monk Zhu were yelling slogans while moving forward quickly. The two "monks" were so happy now that the high hats of the landlord class were waving to them!

As long as they kill a few more Liaogou, they will become landlords in Liaoyang Prefecture in the future. They will be like the landlords, eating delicious food, drinking spicy food, and never having to starve again, and not worrying about losing their wives. And they can also become citizens! I heard that if they become citizens, republics, etc., they will have a share. In the future, they will be able to study for free after giving birth to a son. I am so happy to think about it!

Zhang Dalang, the boss of the two monks, was also shouting: "I will remember everything. When you rush up later, you must stand shoulder to shoulder, not seeking speed, but seeking unity... It must be like a wall to crush Liao Gou! Do you know?"

The people below responded in unison: "I understand, I'll crush Liao Gou to death..."

...

Wu Jian's ears were filled with officers and answers from the soldiers. Although his eighth general was full of new recruits, his morale was undoubtedly very high. It was almost comparable to the "house slave" army in his early years.

When he thought of the "Fang Nubing", Wu Jing, who had already been appointed as a general in the Republican Army, also found it funny. He also had a house in Kaifeng Prefecture! He was originally planning to make a wedding house for one of his two sons, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.

Those two kids are both promising! The older one has become the partner of the "Young Master". His future is probably better than his father.

Just as he thought of his precious son Wu Jie, several knights came over, about the transmission of the third cavalry general. When he saw the lanterns on the Wu Jian army flag (it was now at night, and small lanterns were hung on the flag of the general to send signals) he came up.

"Is it the eighth general?"

"That's right!" The eighth general's military aircraft came up to talk, and the command was right, and the waist card was checked.

"The Third Cavalry General Wu Tianzheng reported that the Liao army was temporarily blocked in the sea east of Daniu Mountain! Please go quickly!"

This person called Wu Tian the name stipulated in the Communication Order of the Republic of China (Youzhou Army). In the Republic of China, all the names of officials on various notifications and orders must be used to add military positions except Wu Haogu. No characters and numbers are allowed, nor do they need to avoid misunderstandings and ambiguities.

Wu Haogu was called "the king" or "ruling".

"I understand!" Wu Jian responded, "Go and tell Wu Tianzheng General, and I will tell you that the official will lead his troops to rush there immediately."

"Here!"

After sending the cavalry, Wu Jian immediately ordered: "March quickly and target Huangjiagou!"

"Emergency march! Target, Huangjiagou..."

Immediately, there were cavalry commanders running along the eighth general's marching team and shouting. The troops that were already advancing quickly suddenly accelerated and began to run on the official road!

...

Daniu Mountain, Wu Tian’s flag of generals has already fluttered high above the top of the mountain.

Wu Haogu's chief dash has now reached the position of being the leader of a general. He is also in charge of a powerful cavalry general! There are 5,000 iron-armored knights under his command, which is really a powerful force.

However, he did not dare to order his cavalry to launch a terrible group charge. Because the enemy was still on the ice of the Liaohai Sea at this time, he was not sure if his 5,000 armor would stomp the ice layer? If all 5,000 iron cavalry fell into the cold sea water, it would be ignorant of death.

So he just divided his cavalry into two, one of which was deployed on the hillside of Daniu Mountain and two were placed on the beach. His own generals climbed Daniu Mountain, set up a formation on the top of the mountain, and observed the soldiers of the Liao people.

There were really a lot of Liao soldiers. Under the vague moonlight, they were divided into several marches, all of whom were wearing torches and looking down from a high place, they saw several fire dragons coming slowly. The total force was probably less than 50,000!

In addition to his strong military force, Wu Tian felt a little stunted. Wanyan Zongbi had already informed him of this matter. It is said that the leader of the Shunguo tribe was the Jurchen tribe of the Wanyan tribe, who were all rivals of the Wanyan tribe. There were a total of six or seven hundred households, all of whom surrendered to Yelu Yanxi.

Under extreme circumstances, 1,000 cavalry can be dispatched! Moreover, their combat effectiveness is comparable to that of Wanyan's troops.

However, these Shunguo tribes, whose combat power is comparable to that of Wanyan's tribe, did not appear. The one who rushed forward was the Liao army's own far-block. They fought with the Knight Knight (the second generation Knight) sent by Wu Tian.

The knights who were raised with Wu Haogu's private property have now reached the second generation. Like the previous generation, they were all young men bought from the Liao Kingdom through various channels, including the Han teenagers in the Yan thalassin, the small herd slaves on the grassland, and the yellow-headed Jurchen hunting slaves. They were all trained and developed by Wu Tian's "brothers". They bought 1,500 and 600, but now there are more than 800 left (the rest are either eliminated or died). They are the best soldiers, and most of them sent to the third cavalry generals.

In front of these group of knights, the Liao people's far-distance horses were not enough to see. Even if they were the best cavalry, which was the best in competing with Khitan cavalry, they still had the upper hand.

It's almost done. If you continue to fight, maybe you will scare Liaogou away.

"Send the order!" Wu Tian loudly ordered at this time, "Let the scouts retreat and give the ice battlefield to Liaogou to set up the formation!"
