Chapter 348: Red Flag Volume Hiraoka (1)
When Gao Jin arrived with his troops, the cavalry of Shuofang troops had already cleaned the battlefield. They had lived a hard life since childhood, even though they had lived a good life in the past six months, but their frugal nature was still there.
Each of the dead Tartar cavalry was stripped cleanly, not even a pair of underwear, his head was cut, his ownerless war horse was collected, his undead war horse was finished, and his skin was peeled and boned, and his horse's hair was collected.
"Second brother, we have lost 1127 soldiers in this battle, including twenty-five armored cavalry."
Gao Jin was not dissatisfied with the loss ratio of nearly 10 to 1, but after twenty-five of the Arc Cavalry broke, he still made him feel a little sad. He knew that this was because Wang Dou and his friends wanted to wipe out all the enemy troops, otherwise if they gave these Tartars a way out, they might not have suffered such losses.
"This battle was a good fight."
Gao Jin had no time to feel sad. At this time, the central army that had arrived overnight had already begun to dig trenches. They were only fifty miles away from the enemy camp, and the cavalry rushed over at full speed, which was only less than an hour.
Only by establishing the strongest camp can Gao Jin allow the troops of the Mengkeshli tribe and the Shake Division to enter the field. Otherwise, once these two departments are destroyed, no matter how strong his troops are, as long as the opponent is willing to fill people, he will be exhausted to death.
The soldiers and horses of Shuofang who had just fought were all dismounted at this time and shoveled soil and dug trenches with the central army brought by Gao Jin. The red-repelled antlers on the carriage were placed in it, and large chariots temporarily surrounded the rear of the camp.
In addition to the bird gunners and heavy cavalry, the remaining soldiers and horses under Gao Jin were setting up camps, but even if they had to set up a strong camp that could accommodate tens of thousands of troops, it would take at least half a day.
In the open space in front of the camp, Gao Jin led the heavy cavalry of the entire army to get off the horse and rest. Everyone sat cross-legged on the ground, eating dry food, and regaining their strength. They rushed over overnight and only rested on the road for less than three hours.
Six bronze cannons covered with golden light were also pushed down in front of the formation. Yang Dayan led the cannon camp's men to level the land and fix the cannon position before he arrived beside Gao Jin and said, "Second brother, I can still get on the horse and kill the enemy."
"Big Eyes, you are the one who is the one who is holding us. The artillery battalion cannot have any problems."
Although the six red cannons were powerful, they were placed there. When they marched over quickly, the most tiring thing was the artillery battalion. Yang Dayan personally pulled the big cart with his cannons out of the mud pits several times. He was the most tiring among the crowd.
"have a good rest."
Gao Jin patted Yang Dayan's shoulder and smiled, "Don't beat me wrongly when you really need your artillery camp."
"Second brother, I can't beat the wrong one even if I close my eyes."
Yang Dayan finally left in disappointment and fell asleep directly on the six cannons.
...
In the coalition camp, the news of Gao Jin's arrival of troops was still not hidden. Although the nearly 1,000 cavalry were led by Wang Dou and the cavalry of Shuofang were attacked by all the few, they were wiped out, but there were still a few who escaped by luck. In addition to the other scouts, almost when Gao Jin's troops arrived, they just started digging soil to establish a camp, and Sa Nang and the other two knew about it.
"This Gao's surname came so quickly!"
"Nine hundred households are gone?"
"You trash, even nine hundred sheep, have to be killed for a long time?"
"Okay, now is not the time to get angry. If the Gao surnamed set up this camp, our life will be even more difficult."
Saan shouted at Yan and Hua with a calm face. What's the use of blaming the soldiers who fled back at this time? "Come on, these people escaped at the last minute and all cut off me."
"Prince, we are wronged..."
The soldiers who escaped were just speaking, and were killed by Sanan's personal guards in the tent, and blood was flowing all over the ground.
"This news cannot be spread, otherwise this battle will be difficult to fight."
Fang and Na Yan didn't say anything. They knew that Sa'n's right to do this, otherwise they had sent nine hundred households to inquire about the news, and in the end they had been slaughtered in half a day. If it was known to everyone, the morale would inevitably be depressed.
"The Gao surnamed Gao is very brave. He is so arrogant that he is going to advance quickly. He wants to establish a big village and fight a stupid battle with us. We must not do what he wishes."
Sa Nang looked at the throne and Na Yan. If Gao Jin set up a strong camp, a distance of fifty miles would be enough to make him stare at them. The three troops of the three units would not continue to join forces. Moreover, they could not fight against this person with the surname Gao. At that time, they could only fight against the other party's camp. Everyone knew that the Ming army was good at defending, let alone that Gao's army was much stronger than the Ming army, and there were such a strong cavalry.
"How do you say you're going to fight, let's follow you."
He was straight and at this critical moment, he knew what the overall situation was, so it would be fine to let Sa Nang be the leader of the alliance.
"We have to do our best to build a large army. I will lead the elite troops in the camp to raid the Gao surname. You will also return to the camp immediately to bring troops to help. As long as we can defeat the Gao surname, we will win this battle."
As the saying goes, soldiers are the most powerful and fast. Sanan and the other three understand this principle, so they all return to the camp without saying a word.
At this time, Sa Nang had already allowed his subordinates to gather troops. He led the Qiexue army and the elite cavalry in his army, a total of 3,000 cavalry, and threw down the remaining troops in the camp that were still gathering in a mess, and rushed directly to the place where Gao Jin ordered the camp to be stationed.
Saan led his troops and personally led his people to investigate outside. When Luda saw the black Sulu ingot representing the royal power, he immediately asked his subordinates to give the letter of return, and he himself followed the army.
...
"The Protector, all his troops were dispatched, and the Khan personally led his troops."
Ye Bushang, who was not sympathetic at all, only took more than a quarter of an hour to return to the camp to report.
"How many enemy troops are there?"
"About 3,000 people, after the Khan led his troops out of the camp, the camp was still gathering troops, but he was slow to move."
"You go down and change the horse, and go find out later."
Let that night not take it and rest, Gao Jin stood up from the horse and looked at the generals around him, "But after rest, can you fight?"
"Protector, we can fight."
Zhang Chonggu and Wang Dou and others all jumped up. The upper and lower armored cavalry of the entire army were here, with a total of 700 cavalry. The enemy's forces were large, and they were not only fearless, but also had a faint expectation in their hearts.
The borderland is the most powerful and brave. The most famous generals in the three armies are all powerful generals who dare to attack the masses with few, such as the former Tai Shi Du, and General Cao from Datong.
Gao Jin is brave and famous, but he is not as good as those so-called famous generals. But today, Chen Sheng and Wang Dou all know that it is time for the second brother to be famous all over the world.
After looking at the camps that had already been established behind him, Gao Jin held a spear and looked at the generals under his command in a cold face, "Since I led the troops, I have never been defeated in dozens of battles, and I have relied on the strict military orders, and the same is true today."
"You will only follow me to rush to the formation later. I will not stop. Even if I have a sword mountain and a sea of blood, I will rush to me. If I say retreat, even if the enemy chief is in front of me, I will not hesitate at all."
"If you can do it, you will go forward and stand shoulder to shoulder with me. If you can't do it, you will leave the guard camp."
After Gao Jin finished speaking, he lifted his spear and turned over the horse. All the generals behind him also turned over the horse and pushed the horses to join him.
"Follow the Protectorate Order."
As Chen Sheng spoke, the generals shouted, and then the seven hundred armored cavalry rolled over the pack horse and shouted loudly at the same time.
Among the seven hundred armored cavalry, there were three hundred people wearing heavy armor and horses wearing armor, and the riders under their crotch were carefully selected and the remaining four hundred were a little worse, but they were much stronger than the cowardly and Xue troops of the Hetao divisions.
At this time, Ye Budou came to report, "The Protector, the bandits are less than ten miles away from our army."
“Leading the way forward.”
As Gao Jin opened his mouth, he turned around that night and turned toward the direction of the army. Gao Jin followed with his horse, and the generals around him also led their troops closely.
...
After riding his horse for more than four miles, Gao Jin could already see the rolling smoke and dust rolling up in front of him, and the ground under his feet trembled slightly.
"Switch horses."
Amid the shouts, Gao Jin came down from his pack horse and turned over and jumped onto the Xiongjun white horse beside him. His seven hundred armored horses were all white horses picked out of tens of thousands of horses.
After the white horse had a black armor, red chess was inserted on his back, and after seven hundred iron cavalry lined up, Gao Jin's three thousand cavalry troops were only around the inside and outside, while the black Sulu ingot surrounded by the center of the army seemed extremely conspicuous.
"All the men, follow me to defeat the thief!"
Pulling down the armor, Gao Jin's roar sounded like thunder, and then he rode his horse to take the lead and attack the entire army of all directions, which was only 700 steps ahead.
The north wind is fierce, the iron hooves are like thunder, and the red flag is rolling flat on the hill.
When Gao Jin took the lead in charge, the Qibaishuofang Iron Cavalry followed closely. After only a hundred steps, they raised the horse's speed to the highest. The wind roared in everyone's ears, and a tiger roaring in their chests. There was only a red spot in their sight.
...
When the seven hundred cavalry rushed up violently, the sound of hooves like thunder was the best sound of war drums.
Saan saw this cavalry that made him jealous almost before Gao Jin led the Iron Cavalry to charge. They were all white horses. Only when Dayan Khan and Altan Khan were Dahan, the Khan's Qiexu army could bring out such cavalry.
But then when the white horse cavalry launched a charge, the heart-protecting mirrors embedded in the pitch-black armor shone brightly in the sun, and the red flags behind the cavalry were red in the north wind, and the red flames approached in just a few breaths, he felt unprecedented fear.
"Shoot, shoot arrows."
After cutting all the troops, the centurion and ten-men shouted in panic in the Tartars, but at this time they could no longer form a decent counterattack. Some soldiers who could not bear the momentum of such heavy cavalry crushing over were plucked away, and in the end only a sparse arrow fell to the front.
Then in the next moment, the seven hundred cavalry led by Gao Jin were like a giant steel ship that cut the entire cavalry in front of him to pieces.
The thundering blood was scattered in the north wind, and Gao Jin cut the throat of a centurion in his spear in his hand. The armor that was hit by the sky-storm of blood hit him was even more ferocious.
The army of Qiyue, who was attacked by the attack, was already in chaos at this time. The cavalry that was rushing into Gao Jin almost broke up and fled in the face. After breaking through the cavalry outside, Gao Jin rushed forward and rushed straight towards the black Sulu ingot.
The seven hundred cavalry rushed forward like a god of killing, and all the cavalry who could not hide in the road were all trampled into powder.
"Stop him, block him."
