34. Shunyang Action

Constantly building offensives during the day, resting at night, and making a lot of noise in the south of Shunyang. Guo Yaoshan's army has long found this suspicious Song army, and specially sent A Han to take people to spy, after a few days of observation. A Han reported what he had learned to Guo Miaoshan, for which Guo Miaoshan formulated a foolproof counterattack plan.

The content of the plan is as follows: If the Song army, ten miles away from Shunyang City, Guo Miaoshan's central army sticks to the city, Zhang Hai leads 5,000 people from the right wing to the back of the Song army to prevent it from escaping, and the marble monk led his troops from the left wing, forcing the Song army to retreat or annihilate it completely on the spot.

Taoist priest Zhang Luan and Miao Ren Bu Ji led Ma Xi to move out of Shunyang along the Xishui River to the Song Jun's camp to carry out a raid. If the village is successfully captured, they will be given to them.

Taoist priest Zhang Luan and Miao Ren Bu Ji had learned from A Han's mouth that Song Jun had brought a running wooden cow and a flowing horse this time. They were itchy and had wanted to get it for a long time. Unexpectedly, Guo Miaoshan left this fat difference to them, which made Zhang Luan and Bu Ji overjoyed and felt that Guo Miaoshan was quite righteous enough. The previous resentment. It has been gone for a long time.

There was only one person who had no task to move. He came to Guo Maoshan's big tent and asked why.

Guo Yaoshan told him that this group of Song troops only had more than 1,000 horses, and it was enough to have marble monks. On the one hand, they came to train soldiers, and on the other hand, they frustrated the spirit of the Song army, so that their follow-up army knew that they were powerful and did not dare to challenge again. As for Ren Qian's people, they would take a rest this time and prepare to deal with the invading enemy. So that's what happened. Now that he has learned Guo Miaoshan's combat intentions, Ren Qian also understands that he will no longer ask questions.

In fact, Guo Miaoshan has been thinking for a long time. Annihilating this group of Song troops is just a means. The important thing is to strive to get through December to raise enough food and fodder. In the first month of the next year, he will go south again and again and enter Xiangzhou through the garrison of the Guanghua Army.

Cook Xiangzhou City, Xiangyang in one fell swoop.

Since ancient times, Huguang's shape has been more important in Xiangyang. If you want to stand firm, you must fight there, and then go south along the Han River to attack Yingzhou, imitating the strong people of Chu.

Next, cooperate with Li Tiegun to take Fangzhou in the west and Dongke Suizhou, and call on the local mountain people to rise up. It is best to encourage the vassals, natives and rebels in the southwest to join together. At that time, the world will be in chaos. They will take the opportunity to recruit troops and horses, kill the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and directly take the rich land in the south of the Yangtze River. Perhaps, they can also obtain half of the river in ten years. Shan, if you are lucky, you can also overthrow the Song Dynasty and change the dynasty.

Jiangshan Sheji is not only one family surnamed Zhao can sit. Maybe the surname Guo is more suitable.

Time flies, and the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, six days passed. Zhao Ze's army of wooden cattle and horses rushed into the no man's land east of Shunyang on the fifth night, and quickly occupied Luoyanpo. He began to secretly sneak into the surrounding areas and set traps.

The key is whether Mu Yunhan's more than 1,000 horses can block the enemy, and they also have to withdraw the thieves into their own encirclement and fight in the field.

Attack launch time: December 9, after 8 o'clock; Target: hit the Shunyang garrison heavily and shelled Shunyang City.

That morning, Zhao Ze got up very early. Shangguan Mei helped him put on his armor, put on a red cloak, and hung a monocular around his waist.

After a past breakfast, Zhao Ze held a temporary pre-war meeting in a huge white tent.

reiterated the content of the battle, and reminded all kinds of people and horses to cooperate with each other, mainly to kill the enemy with living power, and do not take risks to attack the city. If the enemy is really defeated, he can only use muskets and arrows to kill for a long distance to minimize their own losses.

In this battle, Zhao Ze mobilized all the combatable soldiers. Even the transport team sent by the Beijing Division participated in the battle. Zhang Zai was responsible for commanding the 3,000-person team. His men included Chaofang, Baiting Town people Chen Shun, Teng Xiong, Tang Lin and Jia An. After the battle began, the 3,000-person team quickly went down the mountain and besieged the east of Shunyang. The enemy came out of the door and set an ambush on the way. For this reason, Zhao Ze was equipped with muskets for more than half of the transport team, leaving only a thousand long-lancers to resist the enemy in close combat.

After Mu Yunhan was trapped, Di Ning and Lu Jun's team quickly left Luoyanpo and pushed westward, attacking the enemy from Shunyang from behind, disrupting their deployment and surrounding them.

This time, Di Ning and Lu Jun's troops all rode wooden cattle on horseback, so as to quickly get to the battlefield in the shortest time, surround the enemy and prevent them from running away.

There is an artillery at the highest point of Luoyanpo. Zhao Ze personally commanded and has locked the target Shunyang, just waiting for the battle to begin.

Late at night on December 8, the night sky was still so silent. Shunyang City had entered a state of war, and so did Luoyanpo. Both sides were sharpening their knives and aggressively, intending to swallow their opponents in one breath.

The next day, after nine o'clock, the battle began.

Mu Yunhan's army finished its array outside the place of three arrows in Nancheng, Shunyang County, and set up the latest musket battle array, also known as Pingrong Wanquan array. In fact, this formation was personally taught by Renzong when Zhao Ze left Beijing, which is another feature of this dynasty's march.

Fortunately, it is good to be able to comfort people in their hearts, so that those generals who have not read many books can have a recipe in their hearts, so as not to catch shrimps on the spot.

However, the situation of war is ever-changing. You must know how to adapt to changes. To put it simply, it is to be adaptable. This volume of law is dead and has many shortcomings. It is not suitable to be used in all battlefield environments. If it is used, it not only harms others but also harms oneself.

Therefore, Zhao Ze has thought about it for a long time. He has to rely on himself to march and fight. As for the rolling array, it is just a cover.

The ten-way column musket array that Mu Yunhan set up today was created by Zhao Ze. Mu Yunhan has known it for a long time and has been practicing for a long time. Today, it is used for actual combat. On the one hands, it can test the effect of this musket array, and on the other is to lure the enemy.

After a stick of incense, Mu Yunhan took out a black box from the black bag at his waist. In fact, it was a walkie-talkie with a long antenna on it.

"Lord Zhao, Lord Zhao!" Mu Yunhan picked up the intercom and shouted a few words anxiously.

A moment later, there was a rustling sound from the walkie-talkie, followed by a clear and loud voice of Zhao Ze, as if he were around.

"I'm Zhao Ze, Lieutenant Mu Yun!" Zhao Ze stood in front of the cannon on the top of the mountain and answered.

"Yes, yes, it's Mu Yunhan." Mu Yunhan trembled with excitement and said in his heart that this thing was really a god, and it could spread the sound for thousands of miles.

"Are you in place?" Zhao Ze asked.

"My lord, my people have been in the array in Shunyang City. I haven't met the enemy all the way."

"Okay, get ready to start. Good luck!"

"Thank you, my lord. I should do my best and live up to my trust!"

"Well, well, after the battle starts, you can meet the enemy with all your strength and try to attract the army in the city out of the city. After more than half of the ammunition is consumed, you can move east as soon as possible. Remember that it's the old fish lake in the southeast of Luoyanpo. Don't go to the wrong place!"

"Yes, my lord, I remember it, I won't go wrong"

"Okay, wait for your good news, goodbye"

"Goodbye again!"

A few minutes later, there was an earth-shaking sound of gunfire in Shunyang City, and the loud rumbling sound echoed in the sky for a long time.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Yunhan heard a sharp roar above his head, and many Song soldiers in the array also heard it, but they did not react. They did not know that it was the precursor of the shelling. Zhao Ze also forgot to teach them how to avoid shelling.

"What is that?" Mu Yunhan raised his head puzzledly. At this moment, a cannonball fell into the array with the roar of death. With a bang, the earth trembled, and a thick smoke rose. A deep crater appeared in the snow. A large area of Song soldiers within 20 steps around the bullet point fell down, flesh and blood flew across, and many soldiers were deafening their ears. The limbs of the tragic dead were broken, and the sound of wailing immediately sounded.

It's chilling.

Even Mu Yunhan's face changed, and the cold sweat suddenly flowed down. Many Song soldiers showed a frightened expression. Uneasiness and ** were brewing. As long as there was another shelling, it was estimated that Mu Yunhan's people would collapse without Guo Yushan's troops.

However, Guo Yaoshan did not intend to fire the second shot, because he attacked the city and plundered the land a few days ago and consumed a lot of shells. Now there are only seven shells left, and there are still six rounds left. He has to keep it to attack Xiangzhou in the future.

Today, this shot was fired at the head of the city, purely to see the power of the gun when defending the city. Unexpectedly, I didn't expect that it was really powerful.

Guo Yaoshan stood at the head of the city, looking confidently at the battle of the Song army not far away. He waved his hand and ordered, "Wang the flag and order the marble monk to leave the city!"

The third sister quickly sent the order, followed by the flag on the head of the city, and the east gate of Shunyang City was immediately opened. The marble monk rolled out with all the 6,000 troops and wanted to kill the Song army outside the city in one breath.

The battle was finally approaching. Mu Yunhan pinched a handful of sweat in his hand and stood on the high post to see clearly. A lot of people and horses gushed out of Shunyang East City. It seemed that there were more than four or five thousand, and there were cavalry alone...

Mu Yunhan's approximate number can't help but be frightened.

Hurry up and order: "Fire, fire, hit hard!"

Under Shunyang City, gunfire came one after another, just like firecrackers were set off during the Spring Festival. Although outside the land of three arrows, Guo Mioshan was not worried about his injury.

However, he underestimated the power of the musket, especially the musket made by Bianliang Xiangfu.

There were more than a thousand people in the musket array of the Tenth Road Column of the Song Army, who took turns to shoot, constantly tilting the bullet rain. As soon as the marble monk's men and horses appeared, they were hit head-on. The cavalry who rushed out first kept screaming and shot and fell off the horse. The fast speed was simply shocking.

Although the marble monk is a reckless man, he is not stupid. If he waits for all 6,000 people on his side to rush out of the city and then rush over, most of them will be killed and injured.

In that case, he would be really stupid, so he also gave an order.

"Brothers, go, kill them directly and fight. They are only 1,000 people, more than 6,000 of us, and each of us drowned them with a mouthful of saliva. Kill them, kill Song Jun, and rob them!"

A loud shout suddenly sounded outside the Dongcheng Gate, and even the people in the city heard it. Needless to say, his 6,000 desperate people rushed to the Song army with swords and muskets as soon as he came out of the city.

Under the city, the sound of gunfire sounded again, and the people and horses rushing to the front were the first to be shot and fell down. The speed of death was faster than the speed of the impact.

However, the land of the three arrows is not very far, not to mention under Shunyang City, the 6,000 horses of marble monks were instantly covered with large open land, a sea of people, all the way to the forest in the distance. The momentum was very scary.

Mu Yunhan's musket team only killed and injured less than 1,000 of them. The two convenient melees were together. People crowded, people were beaten, swords and shadows. Song Jun kept falling down, and more than 200 people died in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, retreat, retreat quickly, come with me!"

Mu Yunhan saw that the time was ripe, and he had to explain it all if he resisted, so he quickly ordered the soldiers around him to blow the horn of retreat, a deep and tragic horn.

Before the war, Mu Yunhan explained that as long as he heard the horn, he quickly retreated and desperately retreated to the old fish lake in the southeast.

In an in anusp, hundreds of Song troops ran wildly and distanced from the army of marble monks.

"Damn it, I want to escape. I haven't killed anyone yet. Chase me!"

At this time, the marble monk was still in the middle army and was rushing to kill on his horse. Before he was close, the Song army was defeated and turned around and ran away. Therefore, he waved his sword and ordered his subordinates to continue to chase and kill the fleeing Song army, and strived to annihilate this group of people and horses in front of the next mountain pass, and swallowed the credit alone.
