Tang Dynasty good husband

Chapter 71 Don't Worry, Come and Die One by One

How can anyone not die in a war?Especially in the era of cold weapons, fighting means death, and it is still a large number of deaths.

This is an unsolvable problem, and it cannot be solved by Qin Chao alone.

"Deputy lieutenant, there are 100 Turkic cavalry outside. They are divided into three teams, each with [-] soldiers. Each team is responsible for one direction. They patrol back and forth non-stop. Only the places where our army enters are not blocked by Turkic cavalry." Su Lie Come and report.

"How many people are there in this Turkic cavalry?" Qin Chao asked, he had to force himself to calm down, otherwise more people would die here.

"At least [-], the humble position has attracted [-] enemy troops, and the rest are heading towards the direction of the main formation. The humble position has already sent someone to notify the main formation." Su Lie continued.

"Three thousand? Didn't you say one thousand?" Qin Chao frowned tightly. The error in this information is too big, right?If he had known that there were 3000 people, Qin Chao would not have the guts to send Su Lie to lure the enemy. What if all 3000 people were attracted?
Qin Chao had to complain secretly about Tang Jun's intelligence system in his heart. He had seen some errors, but never seen such a big error.

Su Lie didn't take it seriously, and patiently explained the reason for the error to Qin Chao, who listened to Qin Chao and nodded, feeling that this is a system problem, but it can't be resolved in a short while.

"The main formation is fighting with [-] Turkic cavalry, and now there are [-] Turkic cavalry coming from behind. They are being attacked from the front and back, and this battle will be difficult." Qin Chao couldn't help sighing, feeling really helpless.

With too few troops in hand, it would be a fantasy for 400 people to contain [-] Turkic cavalry, and it would be considered a great achievement to be able to kill these [-] Turkic cavalry.

But once the main line is lost, his partial line will naturally not be much better.

So what Qin Chao is facing now is a dilemma, but no matter how he chooses, the final result may not change much.

"Duke E has gone through countless battles throughout his life as a soldier. Such a scene shouldn't be difficult." Su Lie said with some uncertainty.

The Turkic people are all cavalry, and Yuchi Jingde only had less than a thousand cavalry in his hands, and he divided them into two hundred. At present, there are at most eight hundred cavalry, and the rest are all infantry, and they are fighting in the field. How to fight this battle?
But there are some things that Su Lie can't say, one is that he shouldn't say these words, and the other is that speaking out will disturb the morale of the army.

"Forget it, it won't help even if our department rushes to join the main formation, and we won't be able to go back for a while." Qin Chao secretly made up his mind, not because he had enough confidence, but because he felt that he would never return. You can't be indecisive. No matter whether it is right or wrong, you can only know when you make a decision. Hesitating can only delay the battle opportunity, or even cost your life.

As for whether to rush back to the main formation or have other arrangements, those are things for later. The problem before them is that they must first deal with the [-] Turkic cavalry surrounded outside.

"The order was given to all the infantry to change their bows and hide by the side of the mulberry forest. When the Turkic cavalry passed by, they fired at the fastest speed. After three rounds of shooting, the Qianniuwei immediately dispatched the whole army to strangle the enemy. It took half a cup of tea time at most. , or enemy reinforcements appear, no matter what the outcome of the battle, they must all return to the mulberry forest." Qin Chao ordered without hesitation.

"No! I will obey the order!" Su Lie and Zhang San both obeyed.

Both of them were puzzled by this order, but it did not prevent them from obeying the order. This is also the rule of the Tang army. On the battlefield, no matter whether the subordinate understands it or not, they must obey the military order of the superior.

Although Qin Chao is not a real soldier, he is their supreme commander in this battle. Even if Qin Chao is a fool, these 400 people must listen to what he says.

Zhang San obeyed Qin Chao completely, and was promoted by Qin Chao himself. Although he was a temporary worker, Zhang San also established a deep relationship with Qin Chao in Qinhe Village.

Through the battle just now, although Qin Chao's performance was horrible, Zhang San still admired his commanding ability. If it weren't for Qin Chao's command, their casualties in the battle just now would have been even more.

Of course, even though Qin Chao didn't do anything during the battle, he didn't even give the order to draw his bow, but this still couldn't cover up Qin Chao's first victory in this battle.

Long before the battle, Qin Chao had already made arrangements in every detail. According to the deployment of the sergeants, he arranged which archers would stay behind.

Where the Turkic cavalry can open their bows when they arrive, and what to do if they are discovered by the Turkic cavalry in advance, these situations have been arranged by Qin Chao as early as before the war.

What the government soldiers need to do is to follow Qin Chao's arrangement, execute different orders according to different situations on the battlefield, and finally have such a result.

Su Lie is a fierce general, as well as a wise general. He vaguely guessed Qin Chao's intentions, but Su Lie has different opinions on this method of warfare, which does not conform to conventional combat methods.

However, because Qin Chao had mentioned asymmetrical warfare and unconventional means before, although Su Lie didn't understand them very well, he would strictly follow Qin Chao's orders. At least for now, Qin Chao's command is not questionable.

Although it was just a simple ambush, Su Lie felt that he had benefited a lot.

Qin Chao gave priority to the Turkic cavalry on the east side. Before the Turkic cavalry entered the mulberry forest from the south, the remaining three groups of Turkic cavalry were deployed on the northeast and west sides respectively. They first dealt with the Turkic cavalry on the east side and succeeded. The chances are still very high, at least they will not be flanked by cavalry on the other sides.

"shoot!"

In the southeast corner, when a hundred Turkic cavalry ran here calmly, Qin Chao suddenly gave an order, and nearly two hundred arrows shot at the Turkic cavalry overwhelmingly.

The Turkic cavalry was not fast, and because two hundred Turkic cavalry entered the forest to attack, they did not expect that the two hundred Turkic cavalry would be defeated so quickly, so they ran back and forth less than thirty steps away from the mulberry forest. .

The purpose is to respond as soon as the Tang army emerges from the mulberry forest, and wipe out the scattered Tang army before they form a formation.

This is a commonly used method by the Turks, and it has been tried and tested.

The unsuspecting Turkic cavalry was instantly stunned by the sudden arrow. About [-] Turkic cavalry were shot by the arrow, but less than one-third of them fell from their horses, and the rest fell from their horses. Lie tightly on the horse.

Several war horses were also shot by arrows. The injured war horses suddenly roared and ran around uncontrollably. The Turkic cavalry above wanted to control the horses, but how could the injured war horses be so easy to control?

Cheng Chumo and Niu Jianhu were kept by Qin Chao's side, and the two hundred thousand Niuwei were completely handed over to Su Lie.

As for the two guys who were deprived of the qualification to charge, each with a hard bow, they shot arrows at each other one after another.

Qin Chao didn't stop, even if Su Lie and the others rushed to the side of the Turks, they still kept shooting arrows.

After three rounds of shooting, Su Lie led two hundred thousand cattle guards to launch a charge. It is impossible for the horses to run at the fastest speed at this distance, so this charge is a bit regrettable, but it is still very difficult to deal with the beaten Turkic cavalry. Effective.

When Su Lie and the others were about fifteen steps away from the Turkic cavalry, Qin Chao called to stop, but the archers were not idle either. Half of them continued to aim at the battlefield, while the other half aimed at the northeast to deal with it. There may be Turkic reinforcements.

　Well, that's right, I'm here again, still asking for votes, collections, and all kinds of requests. I'm going crazy. Really, yesterday's collections only increased by three. This is when there are recommendations. If What would it be like if there were no recommendations?I really can't imagine it, so I can only shamelessly ask for all kinds of things. In fact, I don't know what to say. I can only work more on the plot. Well, that's all I can do...
