Chapter 29 Attack of the Tartars

Chapter 29 Attack of the Tartars
Although Jia Amnesty felt it was a pity, he did not dare to stop the people from harvesting, and he could not guarantee that the Tartars would not come in a few days.

But Jia Amnesty made up his mind that as long as the Tartars dared to come, he must teach them a severe lesson.

A few days later, Jia Amnesty was training with the soldiers in the army. In the past, only the recruits trained by Jia Amnesty would be trained according to the new method.

This time in Fuxin, Jia Amnesty asked his 2000 veterans to also train with the recruits.

At first, the veterans were a little unhappy, but seeing that Jia She was training the same way every day, they didn't dare to complain.

However, the results were remarkable. It was only less than a month ago, and the soldiers lined up neatly, and their morale seemed to have improved a lot.

Hearing that the Tartars were attacking, Jia Amnesty was not surprised but happy. He came here to fight the Tartars. If the Tartars didn't come, his visit would not be in vain.

Jia She immediately beat drums to assemble the army. After training in military posture, the soldiers responded quickly and quickly gathered together.

Jia She had already asked the scouts and found out that those who came were Jurchen Tatars. Iron weapons were rare outside the customs. Generally, Tatar soldiers did not wear armor. It was easy to tell their identity as Tatars from the way they dressed.

And the Jurchen Tartars also have a bad habit, they all like to wear pigtail braids.

These scouts had been trained by Jia She, and although they were not comparable to those scouts in Jia She's previous life, they still had the basic knowledge of hiding and observing.

From what they heard, there were about 3000 Tartars who came this time, but the Tartars committed crimes in the past and captured many people as slaves.

Every time these slaves are organized into an army and let them be cannon fodder in front.

This time was no exception. According to the observations of the scouts, apart from the Tartars, there were at least 1000 Zhou people as forwards.

Hearing this, Jia She frowned, Zhu Lizhong was afraid that Jia She would be in charge of the army for the first time, and when he heard that the people were soft-hearted, he quickly reminded him.

"General, you must not be soft-hearted towards those people. Although they used to be common people in the Zhou Dynasty, they are now used by the Tatars. If you are soft-hearted and refuse to attack, the Tatars will let those people attack the city."

"And you don't know, those Tartars didn't randomly choose someone to be the striker, most of them are usually more obedient to the Tartars, otherwise the Tartars are afraid that those people will rebel before the battle, and they will besiege them instead."

"Some people who were captured once ran back and said that as long as those people follow the Tartars to attack the city and make military exploits, they can be reused by the Tartars and become officials and make a fortune."

Jia Amnesty was in a bit of trouble at the beginning, thinking that they were all ordinary people after all, and he was a little bit helpless, but now that he heard this, they were all traitors!
Then there was nothing Jia Amnesty could not do. In his heart, traitors were more hateful than tartars.

"It's unreasonable, those traitors! Captain Zhu, prepare as I said before, I will give the tartar a hard time."

Hearing what Jia She said, Zhu Lizhong was a little hesitant. Jia She's original request seemed a little too reckless to him.

Jia She didn't know any tactics in his previous life and in this life. Anyway, in his opinion, the ancient cold weapon war basically depends on the quality of soldiers.

Every now and then on weekdays, he would launch a surprise attack on the barracks to make the soldiers get used to being attacked.

Once the soldiers get used to it, they won't panic if they are attacked by a sneak attack.

After coming to Fuxin, Jia She sent people to chop a lot of wood and bamboo.

Bamboo was sharpened at one end to make spears, and wood to make thick shields.

Jia She has studied the Tatar fighting style. Although he doesn't want to admit it, the Tatars' riding and archery skills are indeed very good.

Moreover, there is a lot of beef and mutton outside the pass, and the physical fitness of the Tartars is much better than that of the soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

However, Jia She seemed to be able to make up for these. Jia She prepared shields and spears to restrain the cavalry.

The infantry were most afraid of the cavalry rushing into battle, but the Tartars lacked iron and could not form a heavy cavalry, which made Jia She very relieved.

Although Dazhou was tolerant to merchants, merchants could still be officials, but as long as they dared to do business with the Tartars, they smuggled ironware and salt tea out of the customs.

No matter what your status is, you are dead. There may be people who dare to do it in the future, but for now, no one dares to touch this red line.

Seeing Zhu Lizhong's worried face, Jia She comforted him with a smile, "Don't worry, Captain Zhu, Tartars are human too, they can't turn the tide with just such a small number of people."

Zhu Lizhong sighed, "General, it's not that I amplify the ambitions of others and destroy my prestige, it's that the Jurchen Tartars are all brave and good at fighting, so don't underestimate them!"

Of course Jia She knew it, but Jia She also knew that fighting was all about morale, if he was discouraged first, his subordinates would be afraid of the general, and their morale would be lost.

Jia Amnesty also knew that Zhu Lizhong had dealt too much with the Tatars, and he was worried that something might happen if he underestimated the Tatars.

Jia Amnesty didn't want to explain too much to him, it would be easier for him to see for himself.

"Okay, I've made up my mind. Captain Zhu doesn't need to say much. You guard the gates in the city. I will lead the troops out of the city. If the Tartars come from afar, they will be exhausted. It's just a good time to teach them a lesson."

Zhu Lizhong had no choice but to clap his fists and promise, while Jia Amnesty took the soldiers and set up a formation outside the city.

The front row is full of big shields that are taller than people, and they are all held by specially selected big men.

The spears made of bamboo protruding from the middle were all scorched by the fire, so they were hard and sharp.

The people behind had a large shield standing every few steps to prevent the Tartars from throwing arrows.

Jia Amnesty didn't hide behind the shield, but stood in front of him on horseback, holding a long stick and kept pulling it on the ground. He was so emotional that he couldn't help but want to rush out and fight.

When Jia Amnesty's formation was ready, he could see the Tazi's troops approaching from a distance.

The people in the front are indeed dressed like the common people of the Zhou Dynasty, but everyone is holding crudely made weapons, many of them even holding a wooden stick.

Although he knew that these people might be traitors, Jia Amnesty asked his subordinates to use a simple loudspeaker to speak in order not to be bothered by those civil servants afterwards.

"Listen, people in front, the general has an order. If you are all forced by the Tartars, put down your weapons and disperse as soon as possible. After three counts, if you still stand in the front, you will be charged with banditry and killed without mercy!"

When a young Tartar in the Tartar army heard this, he sneered and said to the leading Tartar.

"Seventh brother, these Han people are not very good at fighting, but their voices are quite loud!"

The leading Tartar also laughed, "These Han people are like this, they are very talkative, and when the lower city is broken, they will cry louder than each other, Duoduo, this is your first time on the battlefield, follow me later , don't run around."

After hearing this, Doduo didn't take it seriously, but he agreed.

These two people are the seventh son Abatai and the 15th son Duoduo of the Jurchen Tazi patriarch.

In fact, there are very few Jurchen people, and they can only live by the Tartars of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

They thought about joining Dazhou before, but after Dazhou accepted it, they remained stubborn and harassed the people at the border. They also colluded with Beiyuan, and Dazhou broke Yuan and established Zhou.

She has always been wary of foreign people, seeing Jurchen's capriciousness, she simply broke her face and refused to accept their attachment.
