1579. Attack Mount Mangdang
Wan Xueming probably unexpectedly, after Su Quandang led his army to the border between Nanjing Road and East-West Shandong Road, he did not send heavy troops to attack Mangdang Mountain at all.
Good steel is used on the blade, and the same is true for fighting.
After sending Chihou to investigate the details of the Yuan army in Mangdang Mountain, Su Quandang just sent Wen Qi to lead the Tiangang army to attack.
With such a narrow terrain as Mangdang Mountain, there is no way to accommodate too many soldiers attacking at the same time.
This is something that can't be done.
No matter how many troops come, it is useless.
The battle that the Tiangang Army is facing will not be easy.
According to the scout's investigation, the Yuan army had already arranged a cannon array on the mountainside of the official road. However, they had to take down Mangdang Mountain.
In this way, the soldiers of the Jiankang Military Region can pass through Mangdang Mountain with minimal losses and press towards Guide Mansion.
At the foot of Mangdang Mountain, there is a rock wall that is more than ten meters high.
Wen Qi personally led the army.
The army set up a camp hundreds of meters away from the rock wall.
Su Quandang gave him a relatively relaxed time, but he only asked him to take down Mangdang Mountain within two days.
While the soldiers were camping, Wen Qi held a telescope in the wilderness and watched the rock wall.
The rock walls are bare, and even with the military qualities of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty, it is difficult to successfully climb up.
If nothing unexpected happens, the Yuan army must have been fully prepared on the rock wall.
This is really a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
After dozens of minutes of observation, Wen Qi led his generals to his tent.
There are dozens of generals at the commander-level in the Tiangang Army.
After gathering in the tent, Wen Qi said: "To break Mangdang Mountain, you must first take down this rock wall. What are your tricks?"
A general said: "General President, I thought we could send soldiers from the special forces regiments to climb up the cliff at night at night to open the front for our army."
"No!"
As soon as the general's voice fell, another general said: "The soldiers of the special forces regiment have flying claws to get on the cliff, but the other imperial guards, etc., do not have this. Although they can also use the flying claws of the special forces regiment to climb up the cliff, if the soldiers of the special forces regiment encounter a counterattack on the cliff, we are afraid that they will not be able to rescue them! I think we should have a safer way."
Wen Qi nodded slightly, "What do you mean by that Zhang Dutong?"
The general surnamed Zhang said: "The last general believes that we should build ladders overnight! After we have to build ladders, we will launch a large attack on the cliff."
Wen Qi frowned slightly, "It's too late to build a ladder now..."
The general surnamed Zhang said: "But there is a cloud ladder that is better than a cloud ladder. It can be calculated as much as you can build. What do you think?"
Wen Qi nodded when he heard him say this, "Then send the order and let the soldiers build a ladder as soon as possible!"
This general named Zhang is not unreasonable.
With the flying claws of the special forces soldiers alone, we cannot support too many soldiers to climb to the cliff. After all, not all imperial guards have the excellent military qualities of the special forces regiment.
But it is obviously not enough to do so.
After pondering for a moment, Wen Qi said: "Super Su only gives us two days, and we don't have much time to delay. No matter how many ladders we build, we must launch an attack on the Yuan army before dawn, with the soldiers of the special forces as the vanguard, and I will send the army to provide assistance. Do you have any objections?"
All the generals in the account nodded and had no objection.
After all, there are thousands of Yuan army on Mangdang Mountain, and it will take time to destroy them. It doesn’t mean that climbing up the rock wall will be like taking down Mangdang Mountain.
Seeing that everyone had no objection, everyone clapped the table and said, "Okay, since that's the case, the attack on Mangdang Mountain will be decided. Before dawn, the soldiers of the special forces regiments killed the rock wall, and the sixth and seventh two regiments helped under the rock wall! If the Yuan army blocked, they would use firepower to support the soldiers of the special forces regiment to open up the situation."
"yes!"
The generals in the tent bowed their orders and then left the tent.
Not long afterwards, Wen Qi also left the tent, but he took a few worshippers and horses away.
He went to the place where Su Quandang's army was stationed.
After arriving in the camp, he went to Su Quandang's tent.
Su Quandang was discussing matters with the generals. Seeing Wen Qi entering the bill, he said in a little puzzled manner: "Why are you back, President Wen?"
Wen Qi reported: "Supervisor Su, I want to borrow the Flying Groups of the various army!"
Su Quandang smiled and said, "What? I think it's a bit difficult to capture Mangdang Mountain?"
Wen Qi didn't feel any shame and said, "I have observed the terrain of Mangdang Mountain. If you want to go up the mountain, you have to climb up the rock wall more than ten meters. Although you have ordered the soldiers in the army to build a ladder, it is unlikely to be built before dawn tomorrow. If the soldiers forcefully kill the cliff, they will suffer heavy losses. So I want to use the Flying Sky Group in the Army to give our Tiangang Army firepower support. With the Flying Sky Group, we can gain a lot of time to climb up the cliff."
"Um!"
When Su Quandang heard this, he nodded slightly, glanced at the generals and said, "Then you all lend the Flying Group to President Wen for the time being!"
He Fangsong, Jin Hao, Yu Xingwen and others in the tent all nodded with a smile.
When Wen Qi left the camp again, there were already many soldiers from the Flying Group behind him.
There are six imperial guards under the Jiankang Military Region, including Jiankang and the garrison troops of Lin'an Prefecture. Although the Feitian regiment is only a non-staff regiment with only a few hundred people, it is also a surprising tree.
When Wen Qi led these soldiers of the Flying Group back to the Tiangang Army's camp, dusk had already arrived.
The sunset is red, like the most beautiful face.
The soldiers of the Tiangang Army were naturally quite happy to see so many soldiers carrying hot air balloons coming.
Afterwards, the camp was filled with the sound of cutting down trees.
Except for the special forces regiments and the Sixth Regiment that were to be vanguards, the Seventh Regiment and the Flying Sphere regiments of each army, the other soldiers in the Tiangang Army had almost no rest all night.
And whether the Yuan army on the cliff knows these is naturally an unknown number.
Anyway, they didn't kill that night.
The rock wall was just quiet, without any movement.
Before we knew it, it was almost dawn.
Wenqi ordered the soldiers in the army to gather the ladders that had been built, and there were more than 200 ladders in total. However, these ladders did not look particularly solid.
After reading it, Wen Qi ordered the soldiers to tie up the ladder in 550.
This formed about fifty large ladders, which looked like rafts. However, although they were bulky, they looked much stronger.
At dawn.
Wen Qi personally led the military vengeance and special regiments, and the soldiers of the Sixth and Seventh regiments pressed down to the rock wall, only a distance of only a few dozen meters.
The rock wall is still quiet, and there is no trace of the Yuan army.
Wen Qi looked at it with a narrow brow for a few minutes, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.
The less the Yuan army was, the more prepared they were. He could almost expect that the situation faced by the soldiers of the special forces regiments would not be too good after rushing up.
But sometimes there is no way to fight, and you have to face difficulties.
After slowly putting down the telescope, Wen Qi tilted his head and the commander of the special forces group next to him said: "Master Wang, lead your soldiers to rush forward!"
The commander of the king was in charge.
As the flag was waving, the soldiers of the Tiangang Army Special Regiment ran under the rock wall with the Shenlong gun on their backs.
Sixth, the infantry soldiers of the Seventh Regiment were all looking up at the top of the rock wall, ready to shoot at any time.
As long as the Yuan army emerges, they will inevitably be attacked by their fierce artillery fire.
Something unexpected to Wen Qi, until a special regiment soldiers climbed up with flying claws and waved their hands on the rock wall, the Yuan army had not yet emerged.
The Yuan army guarding this Mangdang Mountain did not take advantage of such condescending terrain.
Seeing the soldiers of the special forces group climbing up one after another, Wen Qi was even a little stunned, wondering whether the soldiers of the Feitian Group should be allowed to take off.
After his doubts, he waved to the back.
Sixth, the soldiers of the Seventh Regiment carried the ladder to the rock wall and climbed upwards.
The rock walls are full of the figures of the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty.
