Chapter 98
Qianhu, the guard in charge of transporting food and grass, temporarily set up a camp on the shore, and served as the corner of the water army, serving as a food storage place for this dispatch.
The more than 2000 soldiers under Wang Jing's command eat horse chews every day, which consumes a lot of food and grass.
Ordinary soldiers can only carry three to five daily rations.
A few days is definitely not enough for Wang Jing to send troops this time.Therefore, pre-war preparations such as food and grass materials must be done well.
The cavalry led by Mu Hong galloped along the river bank and joined Wang Jing after an hour.
Subsequently.
Fan Yin personally took a few cavalrymen to act as scouts to inquire about the surrounding situation.
"My lord, this place is only sixty miles away from the place where the Taiping Army was besieged... If you march quickly, you can get there in half a day!"
Soon, Fan Yin brought the spies back to report.
He made a rough and simple topographical map through the information obtained by the spies before, including the marching route of Liang Yun's continuous encirclement and suppression of the Taiping Army.
He took out a rough map from his pocket and pointed to Wang Jing, Mai Tiezhang, Mu Hong and others.
"How is the Taiping Army now?"
Wang Jing asked.
The Taiping Army was the soldiers and horses of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Uprising in the Qing Dynasty. They brainwashed the people with religion and coerced rebellion.
They are essentially the same as the White Lotus Sect.
However, their organizational structure is more like a rebel army, far superior to the contemporary White Lotus Sect.
The White Lotus Sect that appeared in the east was different from those in the Qing Dynasty. They were the rebel army at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, and their combat effectiveness was not bad.
It's just that they have experienced relatively few battles, and there is no elite from the Taiping Army who transferred thousands of miles to defeat the Qing soldiers.
"The Taiping army is relatively resilient. They were constantly pursued and encircled by Liang Yun, and they still retain a strong combat effectiveness. They are now surrounded by the former Qin army on a small hill, relying on the mountain to block several attacks by the former Qin."
"However, they lack food and grass, and are besieged from all sides. It is estimated that they will last for a day or two at most!"
Fann said.
He had some admiration for the Taiping Army. He felt that the Taiping Army was somewhat similar to the Qihuo Army. The Bailian Army, which was about the same strength as them, had already been defeated, but they still persisted in fighting.
"The Taiping army is indeed capable of defeating the Qing soldiers repeatedly. They have been stalemate with the former Qin army for so long, and the two sides have consumed each other. Even if the former Qin soldiers and horses have won many battles, they have been dragged into exhausted soldiers by them!"
Wang Jing said with a smile: "Our army raided the former Qin tired soldiers with an elite division. Is there any reason for them to be invincible?"
He brought more than 2000 soldiers this time, but there were tens of thousands of soldiers in the former Qin Army's partial division. Mai Tiezhang and Mu Hong were fine, but the other hundred households and team members were a little panicked.
They have never fought against tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and they can't help but feel a little worried.
Wang Jing noticed their expressions, so he deliberately eased their emotions.
Mai Tiezhang shouted: "My lord's words are very true. The former Qin army has been fighting for so many days. How could it be our opponent? I beg for orders, and I am willing to be the vanguard to capture and kill Liang Yun for my lord!"
Mai Tiezhang's voice was not low, and the nearby Baihu, Duizheng, and soldiers farther away heard it.
Most of their original panic and worry dissipated.
Wang Jing laughed loudly, "Mai Qianhu took the initiative to ask for orders, and this general will give you this chance! Rest for half a day, and after half a day, start marching!"
……
dozens of miles away.
Nearly [-] soldiers and horses were divided into three battalions and surrounded the hills in front.
Most of the trees on the mountain were cut down, and a wall was built to resist the horses. Thousands of people armed with weapons relied on the walls to reject the horses and fought fiercely with the soldiers surrounding the mountain.
The former Qin army had been besieging the mountain for two days. In just two days, the former Qin army and the Taiping army lost more than 1000 soldiers each in the tragic fight.
Dangdang!
The sound of gongs and drums for retreating soldiers sounded, and the soldiers of the former Qin Dynasty withdrew like the ebbing water, and then accompanied by the sound of piercing through the air, the overwhelming rain of arrows roared and covered the sky, shooting many Taiping soldiers on the mountain to death.
After the previous wave of former Qin soldiers retreated, the next wave of soldiers under the leadership of the former Qin Xiaowei launched an assault again.
Liang Yun, the former general of the Qin Army, looked as usual when he saw this scene.
There were several lieutenants beside him, and one of them said: "It seems that the Taiping army can't last long. The general ordered our army to take turns to attack and not give the Taiping army time to recuperate. It really is a good strategy!"
The former Qin army had tens of thousands of troops, and attacked thousands of Taiping troops for several days. They surrounded the opponent behind a hill, and then besieged again for two days without success.It made the former Qin Jun a little ashamed.
But Liang Yun quickly thought of a solution.
That is to rely on the advantage of many soldiers and generals to attack the hill in turn, without giving the Taiping army time to rest and eat. As long as the opponent is a little careless, the former Qin soldiers and horses can rush up the mountain.
Liang Yun smiled lightly, and said, "What a clever strategy, it's just a matter of winning with more."
He is very self-aware, knowing that he is not as good as his elder brother Liang Cheng, so he pays attention to stability when leading troops into battle.
This is the case with the siege of the hill at the moment.
When Liang Yunan went down to the camp, he continued to send soldiers and horses to attack in turn. No matter whether the Taiping army was feigning surrender, night attack or other things, he turned a deaf ear to it.Single-minded siege.
He is the most normal general template in history.
For ordinary soldiers and mob bandits, he led his troops to crush them, as powerful as Mount Tai crushing an egg.
But in the eyes of famous generals, Liang Yun is an ordinary mediocre general.
At this time.
A cavalry sentry came rushing from a distance, Liang Yun waved his hand when he saw it, and asked the guards to let him come over.
"General, a group of soldiers and horses have appeared in the west and are approaching our army!"
"what?"
Liang Yun's complexion changed, and the deputy generals around him were also a little shocked. Could it be that the Taiping Army still has reinforcements outside?All the big and small forces in the surrounding area have been wiped out except for the Taiping Army.
What is the origin of this sudden appearance of soldiers and horses?
"How many soldiers and horses? How far is the distance?"
Liang Yun hurriedly asked.
"About more than 2000 soldiers, less than [-] miles away from our army!" Tan Ma said.
"Order to keep the left battalion on guard against the Taiping army, the central army and the right battalion to be on alert!"
Liang Yun ordered immediately.
Woo!
The former Qin soldiers and horses who were attacking the mountain continued to retreat and stayed at the foot of the mountain to form an array on the spot to prevent the Taiping army from counterattacking.
Other former Qin soldiers and horses changed their formation one after another to guard against possible enemies in the west.
"what happened?"
After the current Qin soldiers and horses withdrew, the soldiers of the Taiping Army on the mountain saw the movement in the distance and did not dare to relax in the slightest.
It can be seen that all of them looked sluggish, their eyes were red, and most of their energy was consumed.
The general of the Taiping Army was soaked in blood, hadn't washed for several days, and his whole body was full of stench. He looked at the movements of Qianqin's soldiers and horses, and he was a little puzzled.
However, he soon realized that there must be other soldiers and horses approaching, and they were also enemies of the former Qin army.
"It's true that the sky can't stop me!"
He burst out laughing, and shouted: "The Qin army has an enemy approaching, so send an order to distribute all the remaining food, grass and clear water, and look for opportunities to break through!"
Under the anxious waiting of the Taiping Army and the former Qin Army.
boom!
Accompanied by the sound of thunderous war drums, two thousand infantry lined up neatly, a group of a hundred, and a side of five hundred, coming from four sides.
Behind the infantry, there were two hundred cavalry.
A large banner was erected high behind the infantry, with the word "king" embroidered on it.
East Lake Army, here we come!
