"Ah Xing, do you think that snake-cat bastard from Shilaozi will take the earth bridge we guard, or the Xiongling Ridge guarded by iron guards?"

Ten miles away in front of Tuqiao Canyon in the northwest of Yuci, on a low hill, two senior generals of the Tianzhu Army's First Mixed Brigade: Yang Zaixing and He Yuanqing, were sitting cross-legged on the grass like two ordinary soldiers.

He went up, holding a grass stalk in his mouth, and chatted away.

He Yuanqing couldn't blame him for being so depressed. The First Mixed Brigade arrived at the scheduled first ambush point three days ago, but for three days, not even the Jin Army's Mao was seen. If it weren't for the peripheral reconnaissance leader Zhang Rui's daily report

, the content was that the enemy in Taiyuan had not moved, and He Yuanqing even thought that the target had gone north to kill Xiong Ling and fell into the second ambush point of the 2nd Mixed Brigade.

"What does it matter?" Yang Zaixing casually twitched the corner of his mouth, moved the grass stems left and right, and chuckled, "If Wan Yan suddenly comes together, we will beat his mother; if he goes away, we will be the first to surround him.

Live in Taiyuan City and stand out."

"Wow! Ah Xing, your brain is still good. You deserve more credit for killing the general, but even greater credit for capturing Taiyuan Mansion." He Yuanqing's expression finally became less depressed.

"Hahaha!" Yang Zaixing laughed and pointed at this good brother, "It's just to make you happy. Do you really think that with a brigade of more than 3,000 people, we can conquer a powerful city like Taiyuan?"

"Am I not cooperating with you? How else can you be so playful?" He Yuanqing also smiled slyly. If it were more than half a year ago, he might still be a little stunned, but after reading so many books and typing so many

In the battle, the whole person has matured and understood a lot. Otherwise, how could he be the deputy brigade commander of the main brigade just by virtue of his martial prowess?

Being tricked? Yang Zaixing was startled, then pointed at He Yuanqing and helplessly shook his head and laughed.

Just when the two loving brothers were relieved from each other's depression, there was a rush of footsteps and the rustle of weeds, and the messenger from the Chasseur Battalion who reported the daily report appeared again. After giving a standard chest-knocking salute to the two, he slightly

He panted and reported: "Wanyan suddenly joins the speed, here we come!"

"How many people are there? Which way to go?" He Yuanqing jumped up and clasped his fingers on the shoulders of the hunter messenger.

Every hunter's body is tempered and strong, but when He Yuanqing caught him like this, a trace of pain still flashed across the eyes of the hunter messenger, but he still endured the pain and replied: "Report to General Charioteer,

The enemy has 3,000 men and horses, including 2,500 combat soldiers. There are 300 Jurchen cavalry, led by Guan Gou, Taiyuan Mansion Road Soldiers and Horses, Wan Yan Tu, and they will arrive at Tuqiao in about two hours."

"Good come! Grandpa has been waiting for him for a long time! Haha!" He Yuanqing slapped the hunter messenger on the shoulder and staggered him. Then he was stunned. He took out a silver coin from his pocket and threw it away with a smile.

To the hunter, "Don't take too little for your reward. I will only take so much."

Yang Zaixing spat out the grass stems with force: "Let's go and meet the Dragon and Tiger King."

The terrain of the Tuqiao canyon is quite dangerous. It is surrounded by rolling hills, sandwiched between two mountains, and there is only a not too wide passage in the middle. As long as you lie in ambush on both sides, wait for the enemy to appear, and block the entrance of the canyon with a strong army, you can do whatever you want.

Even with thousands of troops, it is difficult to break through.

However, the mission of the First Mixed Brigade is not to block the enemy troops and make them retreat in the face of difficulties. On the contrary, it is to attract the enemy troops out of the canyon so that Zhang Rui's Chasseur Battalion can cut off the enemy's retreat route and provide the first mixed brigade.

To create conditions for annihilating the enemy forces. To this end, the First Mixed Brigade had to stay as far away from the mouth of the canyon as possible while ensuring that there was terrain convenient for the tanks to deploy. In the end, they could only choose to stay in the relatively flat fertile wilderness ten miles away.

The total number of the First Mixed Brigade is 3,500, of which 2,500 are combat troops. The engineer battalion and the supply battalion and other auxiliary troops have all undergone basic training and can be used at critical times. The whole brigade is truly unparalleled.

The only ones with combat capabilities were more than a hundred military doctors. The First Mixed Brigade had a cavalry regiment and had as many as 2,000 horses. This would have been unimaginable in the Jianyan Dynasty.

The Northern Song Dynasty already had a serious shortage of horses, and after the country was destroyed, a large number of mules and horses were plundered by the Jin people. Therefore, after the founding of the country, there was a serious shortage of horses. At that time, one carriage (equivalent to a modern division, about 23,000 people)

) In the army, there are only a few hundred war horses available, which is really pitiful.

The reserve of war horses of the First Mixed Brigade has actually reached or even exceeded the same number of soldiers and horses of the Jin Army.

Wanyan Sali and the Jin army in the middle of the road seized Yema, and captured no less than three or four thousand horses, cattle and sheep.

There were a lot of horses. At this time, Di Lie had over 10,000 horses, and he only had three cavalry regiments and one reinforced battalion. With only 4,000 cavalry, even if one man had two horses, he only used 8,000 horses. There were also

There are more than 2,000 surplus horses. These surplus war horses can only be temporarily kept in Pingding for training purposes.

Although having more war horses is a sign of strength, it is also a headache. The food consumed by one war horse is equivalent to ten infantrymen and ten thousand war horses... This is one of the reasons why Di Lie couldn't wait to start a war - so

You really can’t afford to lose expensive war equipment if you keep it unused all the time!

If the first characteristic of the First Mixed Brigade is the large number of horses, then the second characteristic is the large number of vehicles. There are as many as 500 large and small vehicles, which is completely confusing and speechless. There are 200 tanks and 300 transport vehicles.

Vehicles, this is the huge vehicle formation of the First Mixed Brigade.

According to the plan of Di Lie's chariot camp, each chariot has an approved load of 500 kilograms. Except for a driver who is responsible for driving the chariot and mobilizing the steering wheel, it only carries equipment and no people. In ancient times, when armies marched, they carried armor and weapons.

Most of them are packed and carried on the back. If it is heavy armor (such as infantry armor), it will have to be loaded by mules, horses or carts. Otherwise, carrying seven to eighty kilograms of things will be difficult just walking, let alone fighting.

Paralyzed with exhaustion.

After the chariot battalion was established, according to regulations, all the equipment of the soldiers, such as muskets, spare barrels, gunpowder lead bullets, spare baffles, heavy spears, infantry armor, iron leaf armor, shovels, pickaxes, marching pots, and tents

Pants, blankets, military uniforms... In short, all the equipment required by the soldiers was placed in the carriages. Each carriage carried the equipment for eight to ten soldiers, and the soldiers

The soldiers can easily get on the road. The uniform speed of the soldiers marching lightly is exactly the same as the speed of two draft horses pulling a thousand pounds. As a result, the mobility of the First Mixed Brigade greatly exceeds that of most armies of this era, and in terms of offensive and defensive capabilities

and was far stronger than most armies of this era. This gave the First Mixed Brigade a strong advantage.

The equipment of 1,300 infantry and artillery troops only needs 150 tanks to fill it, and the remaining 50 vehicles are loaded with platoon artillery and special shotguns. Each of the 300 transport vehicles carries ten shi (approximately) of grain and

Thousand catties). A total of three thousand shi, which is the ration of more than 3,000 horses for a month.

Di Lie's plan is to complete the first phase of the Taiyuan operation within a month. As long as Shouyang is captured and the passage from Pingding to Taiyuan is opened, the safety of the food road can be ensured. Before that, each combat unit had only one food supply.

Yue. Di Lie believes that from the day of the battle, the Dragon and Tiger King of Taiyuan Prefecture, who is in charge of the military affairs of Taiyuan Prefecture and is famous for his bravery, will not watch the Tianzhu Army for a whole month no matter what.

They besieged Shouyang and could not retreat.

Everything, as expected, the full attack of the White Horse Brigade and the army with Han Qing and the Army, which made the Jin Army forward official a feeling of being a support for a support forces. Add a feeling that it can annihilate it.

The emergence of Di Lie Zhong's army has even more intensive this feeling. The first battle to kill the thief's head, this is the goal of Han Qing and the four wars.

On the day of the end of the three wars, Han Qinghe will achieve the military newspaper required to achieve the goal, sending the four ride fast horses to pass, and the upper pipe hook Taiyuanfu Road and the soldiers.

The veteran of the battle, of course, was very familiar with this set of aid for the siege. When the Jin Army surrounded the Beijing Beijing, it had been used many times. Therefore, after receiving the war report, he was not in a hurry to transfer the troops.

Send a Majesty Elite Puyu team, the two most dangerous points of the two channels from Taiyuan to Shouyang: Killing Xiongling and Tuli.

As a result of the reconnaissance, there were enemy forces in both places. But there were no army ambush.

From this point of view, I have to say that Di Lie and the Staff have a foresight, and give up the most suitable place for ambush to wipe out the enemy. It is the most suitable enemy forces. It is also suitable for our army to open the battle array.

Use Yangmou, opposite the gongs, do a real fight on the ground.

Wan Yan Sudou Speed, such a war general, is not afraid of fighting the so -called rebels and even the official army. He only jealizes the ambush of the middle enemy. I want to think that in the Song Dynasty's generation of famous generals, it was not because of the Chinese and Wan Yanju.

The ambush of the two women was broken by grain, and she killed Xiongling. Since there was no ambush, it was easy to handle. In the military newspaper of the three princes, the three princes specifically mentioned the "fierce spirit" and and the Tianshu City.

The enemy's powerful firearms. Now both have appeared under the Shouyang City. Wan Yan Sudou, which has not played for more than half a year, and finally found the prey worthy of their own shots.

Wan Yan Tunong Speedly integrated Han Qinghe's military newspapers, and then decided to send three thousand elite soldiers to Shouyang according to the situation of Taiyuan City, and to attack the Tianxuan Army with Han Qing and the Army. Leave 4,000 soldiers.

As far as the city is concerned, 4,000 people are the least, and they cannot be less.

The reason why the three thousand soldiers and horses in the battle are called "elite soldiers" is not to say how much Khitan soldiers than Han Qinghe. In fact, this is the one of the Khitan team of Han Qinghe.

Joined his own three hundred female true essence rides, and the number of auxiliary troops was reduced to 500, and the number of troops in the army reached 2,500.

More than one grade?

Perhaps the killing terrain of Xiongling is too dangerous, and there are too many locations suitable for ambush. Perhaps compared with the soil bridge, the distance from the killing of Xiongling to Shouyang is far away.

On the second day of April, I just passed the time. Wan Yan suddenly closed the Three Thousand Army. From the Taiyuan Eastern Dynasty Ximen, the city was led by the pioneer of the hundred riders and went straight to Shouyang.

At the time of the invincible army of the soil bridge, Wan Yan's sudden speed was relieved. As long as the valley was out, the terrain in front was not suitable for ambush, but it was conducive to the army galloping.

After the three thousand army stepped out of the narrow valley without surprise, Wan Yan Sudu speed did not feel a bit wrong. It was not clear why, it was purely a kind of intuition for many years.

Leave a hundred cavalry soldiers to keep Gukou, say that after the army until Shouyang, then catch up with the convergence.

When the three thousand golden troops came out of ten miles, when I saw a densely pushed troops that slowly pushed the troops in the distance in the distance, Wanyan Suddenly finally understood the source of his intuitive restlessness.

"But three or four thousand people, even if I want to block my invincible army, it really is what they said, 'praying arm as a car'." The enemy forces appeared to intercept, and the facade suddenly relaxed. Since the troops of Taizu, he has been in the battlefield for dozens of years. He has not been afraid of anyone.

"Good come! Just let the thieves know the power of the dragon and tiger king who chased like a dragon"! "Wan Yan Tunchi shouted at the opponent's opponent.
Chapter completed!
