Chapter 19 Collision

Shao Shude climbed up a small hillside on one side overlooking the valley and lake.

The remains from three hundred years ago are hard to find.

Murong Bao destroyed 80,000 elite soldiers of the Later Yan here.

The silly son was so incompetent that he forced Murong Chui to go to war with illness the next year, defeating Tuoba Qian of the Northern Wei Dynasty and capturing his capital. But when he passed by Chanhe Pond, he did a big mistake, that was to go to pay tribute to the soldiers who died in battle last year.

The corpses in the Ganhe Pond were exposed to the wilderness. The soldiers cried bitterly when they saw their father and brother. I had to take the blame for their stupid son. Murong Chui was ashamed and angry, and fell ill of vomiting blood.

My hero, bear, and Murong Chui should learn from it.

Educating children is as important as politics and military. But this year, I spent too little time with the children, let alone teaching them anything.

When he was alive, the Shuofang Army was united and no one dared to question his orders. Even if he was dissatisfied, he had to hide it. But after his death, if a foolish son appeared, would the soldiers still recognize him?

A whistle eagle came from the sky, Shao Shude stretched out his left arm, and the golden eagle fell obediently on it.

Forget it, it’s useless to think so much, so I’d better go to “hunting”.

In early April, 10,000 Tie Lin troops arrived at Xuanhongchi. At this time, there were already 22,000 Tie Lin troops, Tianxiong troops and Tianzhu troops in Xuanhongchi area. On the banks of Yanchi in the southwest, there were newly arrived Iron Cavalry Army (5,000 combat soldiers), who were about to go south. Before them, the 17,000 Yinshan Fan tribe led by Qie Zhang had already gone south, preparing to attack the Shuo, Dai and Lan areas.

In the Yanchang City area to the south, there are all 13,000 cavalry of the Feixiong Army (six thousand combat soldiers).

On the other side of Shanyang Pass, Yang Yue had already ordered the newly arrived Pingxia Dangxiang to be the vanguard, leading nearly 40,000 infantrymen from the Xinquan Army and Yinshan Fan tribes to travel east.

In the further Shengzhou area, various armies gradually gathered.

The five thousand cavalry mainly consisted of the late Liangzhou, the five thousand infantrymen of the Dangxiang in the Xia Dynasty, the eight thousand infantrymen of the Yi army, the ten thousand infantrymen of the Dangxiang in Hengshan, and the more than ten thousand Tutuan village men who served as auxiliary soldiers in Xia, Yan, Ling, Hui, Feng and Sheng, the Tutuan townships in the six prefectures were large in scale and amazing influx.

This is a total war mobilization, and more and more of this kind of scene will be encountered in the future. It is a pre-practice exercise.

Gai Yu had advised Li Keyong to cover An Jinjun's retreat before the Shuofang army had not yet assembled. This was actually correct.

More than 100,000 troops, including infantry, cavalry, warriors, auxiliary soldiers, village soldiers and civilians, gathering very slowly. If we had not used the convenience of water transportation, it would be impossible to enter the Yanchi and the front line of the Xuanhongchi.

It’s not too late for Li Keyong to leave now, it depends on how he makes a decision.

"Master, the high platform has been built, and we are waiting for the alliance." Zang Dubao, Niu Li, Li Tangbin, Feng Yin, Fu Cunshen and others came to pay their respects.

"I'm afraid my brother won't come." Shao Shude asked everyone to sit down and said, "But the high platform will not be in vain. If Li Ke doesn't need to come, there will be others who will come."

The generals thoughtful after hearing this.

Shao Shude smiled. He remembered that after Yelu Abaoji rose in later generations, he went south to plunder Youzhou many times. After robbing Youzhou, he was still not satisfied, so he swept the entire grassland westward, fought inside and outside Yinshan, and plundered the Hetao tribes and returned.

He even led the Hu Han army to Yunzhou to plunder. Li Keyong gathered the main force to go north, but in the end he did not dare to fight. A Baoji and Li Keyong became brothers and then returned to the grassland.

This made Brother Yi feel the impact of a Yelu Abao machine on him more than 20 years in advance.

To a certain extent, A Baoji was forced to retreat by Li Keyong and his foreign troops who surrendered to him.

After returning to the grassland, Abaoji focused on managing Liaodong and his strength became stronger and stronger. However, at that time, the military power of the Central Plains was still there, and he was driven back by the northern warlords several times, leaving behind the black spots where the emperor rode a camel away.

At this time, Li Keyong could summon any of the Tatars, Xi, Shiwei, Uighurs, and Tuyuhun to help?

There is a Tatar tribe north of Yinshan. Has anyone come here?

There is a black car room in the north of the Datong Army. Has anyone come here?

There is also a Xi tribe on the grassland north of Yunzhou. Has anyone come here?

Not to mention Tuyuhun, Li Keyong could not annex the situation before Helianduo was defeated.

The Uighurs, who were jealous of money, might fight for Li Keyong, but this time they did not dare to come to this muddy water.

The rise of the Khitans actually helped Li Keyong a lot.

The people of the grassland tribes were panicked and either surrendered to the Khitan or fled. But if Li Keyong could not take over the Datong Army, he would not be able to receive this bonus.

What if he doesn't matter, Li Keyong can't accept it. I will take it here to protect you from bullying by the Khitans.

"Where is Helianduo's messenger?" Shao Shude asked suddenly.

"Go back to the commander-in-chief, right in the camp, can you bring him?" Zang Dubao replied.

"No need." Shao Shude waved his hand and said, "Ask him where the grasslands of Shiwei, Tatars and Xi people are. If you know, choose a few people who are wise and invite the leaders of each tribe to come to join the alliance. The Khitan is becoming stronger and the tribes are suffering. I can't stand it. Please ask them to come and discuss how to curb the ambitions of the Khitans."

"Affect the order."

*******

A soldier from the bank of the silver spear was caught off the horse.

An Yuanxin put away his horn bow, pulled out his short spear, looked at the battle group in the distance, and said hatred: "Where did Shao Zhe find so many scapegoats?"

The personal soldiers who had fought hard and were covered in blood and said, "There should be no doubt the Uighurs. There are Uighurs in the army who recognize the killing talents of these Shuofang Army."

In Hedong Town, if we talk about the origin of the foreign people in the army, before Li Keyong's future, Shatuo first, Zhaowu ninth surname second, Uighurs third, and other tribes should be fewer.

After Li Ke used it, the pattern was basically the same, but the number of people with the Jiu surname of Shatuo and Zhaowu was larger, which combined exceeded that of other tribes.

This time, the five generals who went north, Kang Junli, An Yuanxin, and Shi Yan, all came from the ninth surname of Zhaowu, and were later incorporated by Shatuo. Li Siyuan could not explain his clan, but he was currently considered a Shatuo native. Only Li Chengsi, who was born in Hedong, was born after the Chaos, and Li Keyong joined when he was briefly appointed as the Xin Dai Observation Envoy.

The Hedong cavalry headed north in large numbers, which should have been beyond the expectations of the Shuofang Army.

However, their scouts were widely scattered and very alert. They discovered from a distance that the troops heading north from Yunzhou did not have the effect of a surprise attack.

If the surprise attack fails, the attack will be forced! Shao Shude is right north, see if you dare to let us go!

It should be said that the Hedong cavalry did understand the mentality of the silver spear capital.

The Han army went north to the grassland, and the Huns scattered and shot, and the Han army's horse-riding infantry "dismounted and fought", which was extremely passive. But once they touched the big man or even the royal court, the Huns could not fight, and could only give up their own advantages and use their shortcomings to compete with the strengths of the Han army. How could they be invincible?

I have a strong crossbow, you don't.

I have iron arrows, but you are still using bone arrows.

I have iron armor, you don’t even have leather armor, but you still have leather fur.

I don’t have to work, I train frequently, and you still have to work hard for your livelihood.

Come and fight with me!

Silver spears are clutch soldiers, and logically, there is no obligation to fight the enemy's impact cavalry head-on, at least it is not necessary until their gun skills are well practiced.

But Wang Chong really didn't dare to let anyone go, he was afraid that if it was.

However, the grassland cavalry did not have no hand-to-hand combat ability. Before surrendering to General Shao, the Uighurs generally used mixed melee weapons such as sabers, iron bones, iron swords, and spears. At this time, the spear was not easy to use, and these sub-weapons could be pulled out to fight.

In Hedong cavalry, there are few five-meter-long horse lances, mostly two-meter-long horse lances, namely the "tender lances" placed next to their thighs by Li Cunxiao. In addition, many people use iron ore (z-flower), iron mace, and saber.

Giving up the five-meter-long horse lance in exchange for the opportunity to draw the bow immediately. The choice depends on yourself. At the peak of the Northern Wei Dynasty, there were 400,000 people in the army who could ride horses and shoot archers. With this, Taizong of the State Council also attached great importance to "horse shooting". His personal soldiers had to be evaluated for four times to pass the mark before they were selected. Therefore, many people were reluctant to throw away their bows and arrows.

Silver spears are used in the eyes of many people, which are "easy to break" and "low quality" slender and light spears, plus bows and arrows, to try to have the advantages of both, but they have not been trained yet.

The battle continues.

Li Siyuan took the lead, waving the iron, and the blockers were invincible.

He followed two empty-running war horses, and his mount was exhausted, so he immediately switched to another one and fought again.

Behind were hundreds of elite cavalry, everyone was full of heavy armor, horse lances, long spears, and light armored cavalry in silver spear could not resist, and they went around to both sides, using clamping tactics.

"Kill that man!" Wang Chong held a spear in his hand and brought more than 300 silver spearmen soldiers who were quite qualified in the gun technique, and went straight to meet him.

The north wind roars and the war horses gallop.

Wang Chong took the lead, found the right target, and vowed to assassinate this enemy with great destructive power.

The personal soldiers of both sides tried desperately to urge the horse to create opportunities for the main general.

It's close...

Wang Chong's spear is extremely stable. He has played with guns and spears. He has played them since he was a child and has practiced them countless times.

The war horses intertwined and the spears stabbed out.

Li Siyuan dodged in the flash of lightning, clamped Wang Chong's spear under his armpit, and then waved his iron claws and smashed it over.

Wang Chong was also agile and he hid under the horse's belly without being stabbed. Tieyi passed over his scalp and was almost knocked down.

The war horses passed by, Wang Chong pulled out a ring-handled knife and knocked down the oncoming Hedong cavalry, but he still felt scared.

The Hedong cavalry who had just been beheaded by him also used Iron. Why do so many people in Hedong like to use such strange weapons?

I heard that one of them had a brave general named Li Cunxiao, who liked to wield Tiemo to trap the battle, and another one named Zhou Dewei, who also liked Tiemo.

They are all fucking weirdos!

"Swoosh! Swoosh!" After the two armies were intertwined, they each died and injured a lot. Then they inserted their weapons into the condom next to the saddle, pulled out their horn bows, turned around and shot continuously, which was not missed the opportunity to kill the enemy.

An Yuanxin was a little scared when he watched from the side.

The man just now must have been a cavalry general of the Shuofang Army, and his skills are still good. Although Li Siyuan's spear-catching technique is not as good as some veterans in the army who are skilled in this way, he is somewhat a little excited, so he actually avoided it with his exquisite riding skills he practiced in small numbers.

But this wave of people should be the most skilled cavalry in the Shuofang Army who is good at melee fighting? There are only three or four hundred people, which is not enough!

The sun was rising, and the sun was a little dazzling. An Yuanxin was about to continue to fight, and there seemed to be a glimpse of a reflection of silver armor at the corner of his eyes.

On the small earth slope to the northwest, teams of knights are getting on the horse.

Their clumsy bodies need the assistance of two auxiliary soldiers to climb up, and then took over the extremely heavy and long horse spear carried by the auxiliary soldiers, felt the balance point, and tightly clamped them under their armpits.
