Chapter 23 Gao Qiu’s attack
"Brother, do you know what these 100,000 forbidden troops are?" Yang Mu asked with a chuckle.
Lu Zhishen also laughed. How could he, who had served in the Northwest Frontier Army, not know what the Forbidden Army was?
The Forbidden Army in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China was still quite powerful in combat effectiveness. However, the current Forbidden Army is just a faggot. It's okay to scare those ignorant bandits, but anyone who knows the details of the Forbidden Army will not take the Forbidden Army seriously. To put it bluntly, the Forbidden Army
It is an honor guard with no actual combat experience and extremely weak combat effectiveness.
"It just so happens that our money and food are a little tight, so we just want to take them in exchange for some money and food." Yang Mu smiled.
Strategically, he despised the enemy and tactically paid attention to the enemy. Although Yang Mu's combat effectiveness against the Zhao and Song Imperial Army was extremely low at this time, after all, the numbers were there. Yang Mu directly declared a state of advanced war and implemented military management under the rule.
In preparation, all the hidden lines lurking in Qingfu City began to operate and spread outwards, fully monitoring Zhao Song's every move.
It has to be said that the actions of the Zhao and Song Imperial Guards were really slow. Yang Mudu had been in full formation for nearly two months before the Imperial Guards led by Gao Qiu arrived in Qingzhou Prefecture one after another.
After judging behind the scenes, the forbidden army was said to be 100,000, but in fact it was not even 50,000. This also included the auxiliary army, the grain transport team, etc., and the real number of soldiers was only about 20,000. Perhaps in the eyes of the scholar-bureaucrats in Zhao and Song Dynasties, the small
The small Erlong Mountain doesn't need such a big fight.
When Yang Mu received the report from the secret source, he suddenly realized that he had been deceived. Suddenly, Yang Mu remembered that ancient people often falsely reported the number of soldiers when marching and fighting. When there were clearly only 20,000 soldiers, they would claim to be 100,000.
"The water content is too much." Yang Mu said speechlessly.
"This is normal. This is not only true for the Forbidden Army, but also for the Western Army, Xixia, and Liao Kingdom. The total number of troops on Qinfeng Road, Lizhou Road, and Yongxing Military Road in the northwest border is only about 100,000, but they are known to the outside world as an army of 400,000.
, in order to scare Xixia."
"Then it can't be called a law, it's too watery." Yang Mu sighed again. At the same time, Yang Mu began to pay attention to the information about Liangshan. The army of Zhao and Song Dynasty attacking Liangshan came through the secret wire.
"Haha, Liangshan is in bad luck this time." Yang Mu laughed.
Through the secret report, Yang Mu finally knew why the so-called 100,000 troops led by Gao Qiu arrived so late. Because, Zhao Song wanted to wipe out Liangshan in one fell swoop, and then use the momentum of victory to wipe out Erlong Mountain. Zhao Song's
The focus has always been on Liangshan Mountain, without paying special attention to Erlong Mountain.
After all, in name, Erlongshan only plundered the gentry and powerful Qingzhou Prefecture and did not occupy Qingzhou Prefecture. This was an act of plunder. In the eyes of the Zhao and Song Dynasties, Erlongshan was just a group of bandits who had fallen into the grass and was not worth considering.
Liangshan, those who attack Dongping Prefecture today and Jinan Prefecture tomorrow are like a rebel force. Therefore, the Zhao and Song Dynasty court focused on Liangshan.
Among them, the more critical point is that Liangshan belongs to Yunzhou Prefecture, and Yunzhou Prefecture belongs to Jingdong East Road, while Erlong Mountain belongs to Jingdong East Road. In other words, if Zhao Song wants to send an army to encircle and suppress, it must first pass through
Liangshan, of course, you can also take a detour.
The so-called 100,000-strong army led by Gao Qiu took a detour because the army led by Taiwei Su Yuanjing did not capture Liangshan immediately, but instead formed a confrontation.
Su Yuanjing wanted to recruit people, but he couldn't make the decision to recruit Su Taiwei. He had to report to Zhao Song's official family, which would take time. Gao Qiu couldn't wait any longer, so he decided to take the lead and led an "hundred-thousand-thousand-strong army" to encircle and suppress Yang Mu.
, Yang Zhi is the pioneer.
Seeing that Yang Zhi could not persuade Yang Mu to surrender, Gao Qiu personally led an army to attack Erlong Mountain. Gao Qiu thought it was an extremely easy mountain attack, but he did not expect that Yang Mu had already mobilized all his troops and was sixty miles outside Qingzhou Prefecture.
The local area is ready.
Yang Mu chose to fight here because he was afraid that Gao Qiu's "hundred-thousand-thousand-strong army" would destroy the fields and villages that he had worked so hard to cultivate and build under his rule. The one-hundred-thousand-strong Forbidden Army was not good at fighting, and it was indeed a handful to cause destruction.
Good player.
Gao Qiu did not expect that Yang Mu would fight with him in the plains. Gao Qiu was overjoyed when he saw this. He was ready to finish his work and launch an attack immediately, and it was the kind where the whole army was piled up.
Once the number of soldiers exceeds 10,000, there are no boundaries, not to mention this is a "hundred-thousand-thousand-strong army." Looking at the roaring 100,000-thousand-strong army, Yang Mu stood unmoved by the commander's flag.
"Dong~dong~dong~" The fierce war drums began to sound. Yang Mu's sword and shield soldiers were still in charge of the defense. The spearmen put down their spears and set up a crossbow array. As the crossbow array was deployed,
After that, the vast and simple war song of the Qin army began to sound.
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, he repaired my sword and spear. I share the same hatred with you."
Facing the Zhao and Song Imperial Guards that suddenly came in, Yang Mu's troops were as steady as a rock, motionless. When the Zhao and Song Imperial Guards suddenly came forward and were twenty steps away from the soldiers at the front, Yang Mu roared: "
Flat shot!"
"Puff! Puff! Puff!" Arrows shot at the opponent like a storm, reaping the life of the opponent like a god of death.
"wind!"
"wind!"
"wind!"
A high-pitched war cry sounded, and the other side let out a series of miserable wails. The attack of a hundred thousand forbidden troops was stopped. Yang Mu's troops still shot arrows unhurriedly, loading arrows, and shooting arrows according to their usual routine.
Training, meticulously completing the movements in hand, and then constantly harvesting the opponent's life.
Because Yang Mu used the three-stage shooting principle, in addition to the first salvo that caused the greatest damage, the subsequent arrow rains continued one after another. Faced with this continuous crossbow attack, Zhao, who did not have a strong will to fight, was
The Song imperial army collapsed, threw away their weapons and fled.
One person's running led to several people running, dozens of running led to hundreds of people running, and hundreds of people led to thousands of people running. For a time, the imperial army of Zhao and Song Dynasty experienced wave after wave of continuous attacks, until the entire army collapsed, and the army was defeated like a mountain.
Yang Mu's side still fired the crossbows unhurriedly, but changed from horizontal shooting to upward shooting, in order to maximize the damage to the enemy. After the enemy fled, Yang Mu ordered the auxiliary troops to clean the battlefield, while the fighting army pursued them until all the enemy troops fled.
After entering Qingzhou Mansion, Yang Mu stopped the pursuit, but the pursuit turned into a siege.
At the four gates of Qingzhou, Yang Mu not only placed a barrage of horses in front of each gate, but also dug many traps. He also set up a crossbow formation to strictly guard against it. The ones defending were not the so-called 100,000 forbidden troops, but the 100,000 forbidden troops were probably already there.
Yang Mu was frightened and did not dare to break through. What Yang Mu was guarding was Gao Qiu's personal army.
Only by holding Gao Qiu in his hand can Zhao Song send him a lot of money and food.
"Is this the end? Are the Forbidden Army so weak? Can't even withstand a wave of attacks?" Lu Zhishen was dumbfounded. He knew that the Forbidden Army was weak and cowardly, but he didn't expect that the Forbidden Army was so weak and cowardly.
"Is this the end? Is the bandit army so strong? Can one attack defeat my army of 100,000 people?" Gao Qiu, who was hiding in Qingzhou Mansion, was also dumbfounded. After seeing Liangshan's strength, Gao Qiu knew that the opponent was strong, but he didn't
Thinking that the opponent was so strong, I thought that if my entire army overwhelmed the enemy, they would be defeated, but I didn't expect that I would be defeated.
"Fortunately, the walls of Qingzhou City are quite good, and I still have tens of thousands of troops, which are enough to defend Qingzhou City." Gao Qiu couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he thought about this. However, the words of Murong Yanda, the governor of Qingzhou Prefecture, directly affected Gao Qiu.
A basin of cold water.
