Chapter Six(1/2)
Commander Garnett has been in the army for decades, but he has never been so embarrassed. Since the town was attacked last night, he has completely lost contact with the troops except for the dozen remaining soldiers around him.
From time to time, I heard the sound of horse hooves from time to time. It was the Lin family's cavalry that was chasing the lonely alive troops from time to time. Because of this, my efforts to gather the troops several times were defeated by the interference of the enemy cavalry.
If it were normal times, I would never take these small cavalry teams of twenty or thirty people seriously, but now I will bless the enemy not to take a fancy to me.
Garnett's mood at this time was like the very gloomy sky.
"Commander, Commander!" With this voice, more than a hundred officers and soldiers wearing black armor appeared in front of them.
The Henry family advocated black, which was completely different from the Lin family wearing white armor. Therefore, some people called the first battle to fight against thieves the "Black and White Battle".
The sound sounded like a fairy music in Garnett's eyes. He saw that Bai Siwen Biaotong was walking in front of him. He didn't know where he got his strength, so he ran towards Bai Siwen.
Holding his hands, the two of them looked at each other, their hair was fluffy and their clothes were not tidy, and Bai Siwen was covered in blood. She could be said to be without any grace and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It was ten o'clock the next morning. After losing command for twelve hours, Henry's army finally resumed its command.
After returning to the command position, Garnett's performance was impeccable and quickly disturbed the remnants of the 12 towns outside the city. Unfortunately, it was too late! It was too late!
Garnett would not be so bad. Now there is only one unit in the establishment of the system, Bai Siwen's remaining infantry team, and there are more than 600 people led by Julia. As for the remaining nearly 1,000 people, they are survivors of the elimination of the established units. Garnett had no choice but to temporarily temporarily add Bai Siwen, and Julia led two units.
In the camp of the Lin family army, looking at Bai Yunhang who was reorganizing the Henry army, he couldn't help but praise: "Garnett did a good job!"
Zhang Ziyin replied: "After all, he is a top student from Lu University and has good military qualities."
The full name of the Ghana Empire Army University is the highest military academy in the country. It was founded in the previous dynasty and was successively held. The school system is five years, each year, with only 40 or 50 people. It specializes in training senior officers and is known as the two major foundations of the Imperial Army, as well as the Canglong Non-commissioned Officer School, which specializes in training low-level officers.
Graduates of the University of China are often very capable of military talents, so they are particularly popular in various troops. Most of the officers above the dynasty came from the University of China. After entering the school, the University of China wore green military uniforms and green military caps, which was in sharp contrast with the yellow armor of Canglong. Therefore, there is a saying in the army that "wears yellow robe and cuckolds".
Zhang Ziyin's words obviously touched Bai Yunhang's thoughts. He only heard him say to himself: "I heard that there is a Corossa in the Henry family, who is the first in the 79th period of Lu University. I hope I won't face such a terrible woman."
He spoke very lightly, except for a few people around him, few people heard it.
Xiao Yuya asked at this time: "Why did Yunhang launch an attack? The enemy is still in chaos..."
Bai Yunhang is responsible for all military affairs. She, the chief financial officer, has no right to interfere, and can only ask questions.
After dealing with most of the enemy troops in the county, Bai Yunhang personally led the First Balance and the direct troops to pursue the troops, and Ding Xiao and the others also asked to leave the city together in the name of "inspecting military information".
Although Bai Yunhang repeatedly refused for safety reasons, Ding Xiao and the others' attitude was more firm than Bai Yunhang, and it made Bai Yunhang understand the truth of "not allowing two women to argue with them". What's more, although he is now in charge of the Three Seals, in name, Ding Xiao and the others' status is still higher than that of his vice-president.
There are still several remnants of Henry's army in the city, with a total of about hundreds of people occupying several key points and forcibly defending them. All of them are left to Lu Da's second bid.
However, when Bai Yunhang saw that Henry's army resumed command, he immediately stopped chasing and let the infantry build fortifications on the snow.
Although it was in the snow, with the participation of engineers holding engineer shovels, the Lin family army quickly successfully built a simple fortification.
Facing the questioning of his colleagues, Bai Yunhang replied: "Be careful of the enemy's cavalry."
As if it was in response to Bai Yunhang's answer, a rapid sound of horse hooves sounded from afar, from far away, getting closer and closer to the Lin family army, the sound became louder and louder, and even felt like stepping on oneself.
Not long after, I saw a long black dragon running towards this side in the distance. The horses were all full of swords and spears, horses were covered with iron saddles, and people were wearing iron armor. It was an iron cavalry that had been fighting for hundreds of battles.
Only then did Xiao Yuya understand Bai Yunhang's intention. After launching an attack, the battle could not be resolved quickly. If the enemy's iron-armored heavy cavalry arrived, it would inevitably be attacked from the enemy.
Although the enemy's remaining troops were in a mess, they could survive last night's bloody battle, which means that they were mostly soldiers who could fight. In this case, they would probably pay a considerable price. Even if they defeated the enemy, they would be exhausted. If this new force joins the battlefield, they would pay the price of blood.
On the other side of the battlefield, Henry's army saw reinforcements arrive, and his morale was greatly boosted and the joy was thunderous.
Bai Yunhang carefully patted the thoughtful Xiao Yuya on the shoulder and said, "Chief of Staff, please command me. I have something to talk about with the two adults!"
The three of them rode for more than a hundred steps together, entered the temporary central army account and sat down. They made sure that no one eavesdropped inside and outside the account. Bai Yunhang whispered: "Sir, should you take back those kites with broken strings?"
Xiao Yuya thought for a long time before saying, "I'm not a soldier, I'll decide if I'm Yunhang."
Ding Ying didn't understand and asked softly: "That's that? Is it a spy?"
Bai Yunhang replied: "It is part of the Chrysanthemum Tears Plan."
Ding Ying repeated: "Chrysanthemum Tears Plan?" Her tone was a little surprised.
The Chrysanthemum Tears Plan, which was planned by Lin Xiaohui himself, spent countless efforts and invested countless money, time and life. It is called "Lin Xiaohui's greatest legacy". Historians have never been able to obtain the full text of its entire text, and there are always only some fragments.
Even in the Second Republic 1,400 years later, after the Lin family's top secret archives were made public, historians could only barely beat up a rough break in the archives.
The two people who knew the overall plan in the account did not leave a formal autobiography. Ding Ying, as a government official, should have known the inside story of the chrysanthemum tear plan most, but for some reason, she was neither the operator nor the executor of the chrysanthemum tear plan.
However, unlike common sense, Ding Ying was a little more relieved: "The young man thanked the two adults, and he also mentioned this plan when his husband was alive..."
Bai Yunhang quickly continued: "Miss was because..."
Regarding Bai Yunhang's explanation, Ding Yingzhan said with a smile: "The wannabe only knows the intention of his husband today. Don't worry, Lord Yunhang... I won't blame her for this..."
She has been in a bitter face these days, and it was not until this time that she smiled completely. She was wearing a white dress and finally showed a bright smile like the sun.
Listening to this, although Xiao Yuya didn't say anything, a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes that others could not detect, but was unintentionally noticed by Bai Yunhang.
Bai Yunhang looked at the two peerless talented women in the account and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew very well about the love entanglement that year. These two women with status in him were both talented and extremely smart, but could not see through the love barrier.
But so what about myself? Love Sea Shengtao made me dizzy and almost died at the hands of my heart. If it weren't for the eldest lady's rescue, I would probably have died without a complete body.
After thinking about it, Bai Yunhang still smiled and said, "Under the planning of the eldest lady, we laid a few chess pieces in the Lin family army and the Ghana army in the future. At that time, most of these people were middle and lower-level officers. Now it is time to take back these broken kites..."
Then, he whispered a name. When he heard this name, Ding Ying couldn't help but be stunned, staring at him for a long time, and after a lot of time, he said, "How could he be our person?"
She had been through many ups and downs and thought she had been unsuspecting in her actions, but the fact that Bai Yunhang said was too shocked to have such a reaction.
Bai Yunhang just continued to say his name, and Ding Ying's face changed, not knowing whether it was joy or sorrow.
After saying these names, Ding Ying was shocked and could not reply, and the entire central military account was silent.
Until the sound of horse hooves broke through the silence in the tent, a woman's voice rang out outside and kept shouting: "Second Commander!"
When Bai Yunhang walked out of the tent, the weather became more and more gloomy. He could see Lin Xiaoying, the leader of the cavalry battalion, at a glance.
Lin Xiaoying's body was quite exposed, her capable short hair was just matched with her owner's steely will. She looked particularly strong and graceful without any fat, which also showed that the female tube belt was strong and energetic, especially her slender thighs, which were more attractive in the white snow.
She is very skilled in riding. While she is always scrambling the war horses, she is arguing with the guards around her. As for the result? It is obvious that Lin Xiaoying, who is known for her pride, has a spring-like tongue and is definitely not a loser.
Bai Yunhang shouted: "Lin Xiaoying, what's the matter?"
Bai Yunhang is one of the few people in the association who can suppress Lin Xiaoying. Lin Xiaoying jumped down like a mouse seeing a cat, walked to Bai Yunhang, and saluted: "I have seen the vice-supervisor! The cavalry battalion was ordered to return the establishment!"
Bai Yunhang couldn't help but show joy on his grim face and praised: "Let the cavalry go and rest first! How is the battle result?"
Lin Xiaoying raised his saber proudly and waved it, saying, "My saber is almost curled!"
Bai Yunhang smiled and turned around and said, "It just so happens that the two generals are here. What's the point of rewarding?"
Xiao Yuya smiled and said, "The cavalry battalion has made great achievements and should be rewarded with great rewards. I will withdraw 10,000 more silver coins and you can spend it."
Ding Ying also smiled and said, "All war horses seized this time will be handed over to you for use."
Three pairs of beautiful eyes stared at Bai Yunhang again. Bai Yunhang opened his palms, patted his white-washed military uniform and said, "I'm a pauper, okay, I'm investing a lot!"
After saying that, he walked back to the tent and took out a saber. Lin Xiaoying took it. After taking a closer look, he felt that the knife looked rough and was very casual in its appearance, but in fact it was quite delicate and it took a lot of effort. He held the saber with his left hand and felt that the knife was very heavy, but it was very comfortable to hold it. When he pulled it out, he felt that the cold light was shining, which was obviously a famous instrument.
Bai Yunhang smiled and said, "This is my sword in the army in the early years. In recent years, I have changed to bee stings, so I will give it to Xiaoying!"
Lin Xiaoying happily saluted Baiyun and said, "Xiaoying will definitely live up to the entrusted lord! Kill more enemies on the battlefield, who said that there is no good person in the Henry family!"
Before he knew it, Bai Yunhang repeated: "There is no good person in the Henry family!" Although he still looked calm, Ben's somewhat pale face became more and more pale.
While the Lin family army was building fortifications, Salia Biaotong also led the infantry Biao to meet with Garnett that afternoon.
The comparison of troops between the two sides immediately reversed. Bai Yunhang commanded less than 4,000 troops, and the remaining troops of the twelve towns gathered together, with more than 5,000 people. In terms of cavalry, the Henry army had more than twice the advantage.
Faced with the enemy with the advantage, Bai Yunhang had already been in control of the Zhizhu and ordered the construction of fortifications to deal with the night attack of Henry's army.
And the night was dark and windy that night, which was indeed a good opportunity for night attacks.
At 2 a.m., the Lin family army, who had been waiting for the middle of the night, had just relaxed a little. At the base of the Third Battalion in the south of the camp, accompanied by the sharp screams of "Enemy attack!", countless torches suddenly appeared, followed by the neighing sounds of horses, screams, arrows, and chopping sounds.
The temporary replacement of Gu Yue's deputy steward immediately jumped out of the tent, and countless enemy troops were holding torches, jumping over the fence, shouting: "Archer! Let go! The communications soldiers immediately headed to the deputy commander reinforcements!"
In the previous battle, the Third Battalion lost most of the archers. Although the first wave of arrow rain fell, it caused considerable damage to the Henry army, it was too sparse to suppress it compared to the absolute number of enemy troops. After the fifth wave of arrow rain, the Henry army rushed to the front of the Lin family army.
The heavy infantry on the front held a battle shield with one man high, successfully blocking the enemy, but the troops were too thin and soon the front was broken. The two sides started a hand-to-hand battle. The battlefield was full of blood. From time to time, they heard the roars of shock, and from time to time, the soldiers fell down and turned into cold corpses.
The archers behind were unable to suppress the enemy troops in the back team, and the Henry army also invested a large number of archers, and the two sides turned to a diffuse battle.
Bai Yunhang shouted in the central army tent: "Tell Gu Yue, keep it for me! Otherwise, I will come and see you!"
Zhang Ziyin also responded from the side: "Can you have been using a bad tactic, which has long been used as a bad one? "
When Gu Yue heard the reply, he looked up and looked at the scene of flesh and blood flying everywhere. He was cruel and shouted: "The left and right teams, fight back with me!"
Both left and right teams were light infantry teams. Although they were under pressure from the enemy, their structure was quite complete. After hearing Hu Bo's words, they launched a counterattack together.
The Henry army did not expect the Lin family army to launch a counterattack. They did not have much defense for a while, and the formation seemed quite chaotic. The two sides fought in a melee in the dark night.
Gu Yue was stabbed at the left waist, and couldn't help but feel a sharp pain, but he ignored it. He slashed the sneak attacker with his backhand, slashed the Henry Army's head and separated his body. However, several Henry Army surrounded him again, and he waved his sword and rushed forward.
In the Central Army’s tent, a new enemy situation came!
"All the lanterns in the east of the camp were destroyed by enemy archers!"
Then the sound of "enemy attack" also sounded in the east of the camp, and then the sound of horse hooves like thunder sounded in the east of the camp.
Zhang Ziyin was shocked: "Does the cavalry standard of Henry's army be put into the cavalry team?"
Before nightfall today, Bai Yunhang transferred most of the cavalry battalion under the pretext of performing missions, leaving only a cavalry team responsible for maneuvering.
Bai Yunhang said coldly: "The cavalry team will not move! Li Ding, go and ask Fang Ren to guard it!"
To be continued...
