Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather
Chapter 240 There is a southeast wind tonight
At night.
The candlelight in Duobato's tent was still bright.
Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan brought a large army to the border, making the entire Korcha clan feel heavy pressure.
According to the daytime exploration, Duobato already knew that the attacking army was about 8,000 to 10,000, all of which were cavalry, and also included the Anyuan City garrison camp that had broken through eight tribes.
When scouts investigate the enemy's strength, they naturally cannot count the heads one by one. They estimate the strength of the troops according to the scale of the enemy's march, the number of flags, the area of the camp, and the information obtained in advance.
Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan deliberately set up large flags and camps, and easily created the illusion of nearly 10,000 troops.
If Duobato knew enough about the strength of the East Road of Chongshan Town, he might have doubts, but unfortunately his understanding of the East Road of Chongshan Town was limited to the surface.
The East Road of Chongshan Town can indeed summon tens of thousands of troops, but there are no tens of thousands of cavalry.
"Flag Master, why don't we attack the camp now!" A burly man suggested in the tent.
"No!" Dubato refused without thinking: "You can think of it, they can think of it too, and we may fall into their trap if we go there now."
Night raids are risky, so we need to be cautious.
On the surface, they are now waiting for the opportunity, and a sudden attack may have an unexpected effect.
But Dubato thinks that Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan will definitely be on guard. If he were in their shoes, he would also make preparations in advance.
"Then what should we do? Fight them directly?" Another person stood up and asked.
"Although the Rong army has 10,000 troops, we have more troops. If we fight head-on, we still have the advantage!"
"You are right, but have you ever thought about it? If we fight head-on, even if we can win, it will be a miserable victory. Once we suffer heavy losses, our Korcha family's position in the capital may not be guaranteed!"
"This is not okay, that is not okay, what do you think we should do?"
For a while, the senior leaders of the Korcha family in the tent talked and quarreled.
Duobato felt a headache.
The current situation is indeed difficult to deal with.
In fact, the biggest problem is not how to fight, but whether to fight.
Although the Gorqin clan has now established the Daling Dynasty, and the other six major clans have also recognized the legitimacy of the Daling Dynasty, because the Gorqin clan was defeated in Chongshan Pass three years ago, the major clans have some strange ideas about the throne of the Gorqin clan.
Now the major clans have their own thoughts and calculations, and Duobato is no exception.
He wants to defeat the invading enemy, but he doesn't want the Korcha clan to lose too much.
The noise made Duobato very upset, and he shouted angrily: "Enough!"
The tent was quiet, Duobato was silent for a while, and then said: "Wait a little longer, let's find out the situation of the other party first!"
Since it is impossible to make a decision at the moment, let's wait and see.
Duobato was thinking of using static to control dynamic, but he didn't know that this was exactly what Yang Zhengshan wanted.
...
In the following days, the two armies were in a state of confrontation, but the Korcha clan was very cautious. They vigorously built defense facilities around the flag area.
Now they certainly don't have time to build a city wall, but they can build some horse pits, chevaux de frise or low walls.
These things are helpful for defense, but the effect depends on the situation.
Just like the low wall, there is no cement in this world, so it was hastily built with stones and soil, and it was not too thick, so its defensive power can be imagined.
As for why they didn't build a wooden wall, they also had to have enough wood.
Making some chevaux de frise has already used up their wood, and they can't build more walls at all.
In this regard, Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan are happy to see it, because the focus of Korcha's defense is on the east of the flag area, and the west of the flag area is just a simple construction of some earth walls.
In order to better confuse Dobato, they made their scouts more radical, and once pressed Korcha's scouts to not go out.
Such performance made Dobato even more afraid to act rashly.
The more arrogant they were, the more uncertain Duobato was.
For several days, Duobato's flag tent was noisy, but no rules were agreed upon.
Until the afternoon of May 20th.
Wang Bin and Yang Zhengshan came to the earth slope outside the camp again and looked at the flag land of the Korcha family.
"They must have reached the designated location, and we can act tonight!" Wang Bin took a deep breath and said nervously.
Yang Zhengshan looked up at the sky and felt the wind blowing towards him.
"There will be southeast wind tonight!"
This answer made Wang Bin a little confused, and he looked at Yang Zhengshan with questioning eyes.
"The wind is not small!" Yang Zhengshan stroked his beard and smiled.
Looking at Wang Bin's puzzled eyes, he continued: "Southeast wind, fire bull formation, fire burning the camp!"
Wang Bin's eyes lit up, and his nervous look immediately relaxed.
"Interesting, interesting!"
He laughed.
Yang Zhengshan's mouth curled up slightly, and his eyes were also full of interest.
Southeast wind, fire bull formation!
It's really exciting.
As night falls, everything is as usual.
The Korcha clan is still hiding in the flag area, and the scouts of the reinforcement camp are still wandering around the flag area.
The half-moon rises from the southeast. Will the drifting clouds cover the hazy moonlight, plunging the world into a dead silence and darkness?
In the southeast of the Korcha clan's flag area, a series of cow calls sounded, and then the noisy sound spread.
The soldiers of the reinforcement camp drove the cows out from behind the hill and approached the Korcha clan's flag area.
The distance of fifty miles is not far. It takes about two hours to walk, and it is almost the same if you ride a cow.
Zhang Chengzhi and Zhang Yuanwu rode on a cow each, looking at the mighty herd of cows lazily.
"Hey, I always wanted to be a cavalryman, but today I rode on a beast, but this is a cow!" Zhang Chengzhi was full of depression.
He was really depressed.
In the past two years, Wang Bin has been working hard to build cavalry. In two years, he expanded the reinforcement camp from one thousand cavalrymen to three thousand. Originally, Zhang Chengzhi thought that it would soon be his turn.
But he didn't expect that before Wang Bin helped him to form a cavalry, he received the news of the expedition against the Hu people.
The result is what is happening now. Others ride horses, he rides cows. Others charge into battle, he helps out from behind. Oh, how wronged!
Sometimes he thought that if Chongshan Town waited another year to conquer the Hu tribe in Donghai, he would have at least a thousand cavalrymen under his command. Although the number was smaller, he could still lead the cavalry to charge into battle, and he would not be bored riding cows like now.
Zhang Yuanwu next to him felt even more wronged. He looked at the Anyuan City garrison camp and then at his Qihe City garrison camp.
This gap is really unreasonable!
The two brothers looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
The cattle herd moved forward slowly, and at this time the reinforcement camp was also preparing for battle.
In the garrison camp area, the soldiers were ready, and they all leaned against their war horses and waited quietly. The reinforcement camp seemed a little noisy, but fortunately nothing went wrong.
Wang Bin stood in front of the tent and glanced at the garrison camp area.
It was as quiet as before, without any movement, as if the soldiers of the garrison camp were all asleep, while the reinforcement camp in front of him was noisy.
Fortunately, they had suppressed the scouts of the Korcha clan these days, otherwise, with such a noise, the Korcha clan would have noticed something unusual before they set out.
"Hey, the ordinary places show the skill, and the subtle places show the truth. I didn't think so before, but now I see that the gap is really big!"
Wang Bin couldn't help but sigh.
The more he understood the garrison camp, the more surprised he felt.
The soldiers of the garrison camp seemed to have discipline engraved in their bones, and every moment, every move showed strict military discipline.
At this time, Yang Zhengshan didn't know Wang Bin's sigh, he was adding spiritual spring water to the bucket next to the stove.
After adding the spiritual spring water, he immediately asked the fireman to move the bucket to the place where the soldiers gathered, and then the soldiers lined up to start filling their water bags with water.
Drinking boiled water is Yang Zhengshan's requirement. As long as conditions permit, the water that soldiers drink must be boiled water. Of course, this is also convenient for adding spiritual spring water to the water.
The effect of spiritual spring water is to treat injuries and enhance physical potential.
Soldiers drink spiritual spring water before fighting. If they are injured in the battle, the effect of spiritual spring water on healing injuries has not completely subsided, which is conducive to the healing of injuries.
Although this effect is not very amazing, even a little bit of effect is extremely beneficial.
It can allow soldiers who are doomed to die to resist for a period of time and wait for the opportunity to rescue. Turn serious injuries into minor injuries, and make minor injuries lighter.
This is also one of the important reasons why the casualty ratio of the garrison camp can always remain relatively low.
After many soldiers took water, Yang Zhengshan came to Hongyun and waited quietly.
The bright moon in the night sky sometimes shows a cold face, sometimes shyly hides in the clouds, the cool night breeze brings the unique coolness and fragrant grass of the north, making people feel a touch of tranquility and peace from the night.
But this tranquility was soon broken. At about the first quarter of the morning, a burst of rapid clapper sounds rang out.
At first there was only one, but then one after another, and soon the camp where the garrison camp was located was filled with rapid clapper sounds.
The peaceful atmosphere suddenly changed, and the austere atmosphere spread instantly.
"Get on the horse!"
Yang Zhengshan turned over and got on the horse, picked up the gilded flying fish gun standing on the ground, and then drove the horse out of the camp from the north side.
On the other side, Wang Bin led the 3,000 reinforcements to leave the camp from the south side.
Although both sides will attack at the same time, the attack positions are different.
They would definitely not launch an attack from the west of the Korcha clan's flag. The west had the most defensive measures and was the least conducive to attack, so they had already agreed to attack the Korcha clan from the north and south directions respectively.
At the same time, ten miles east of the Korcha clan, Zhang Chengzhi and Zhang Yuanwu were directing the soldiers to tie hay to the tails of cows and pour kerosene on them.
"All tied up!" Zhang Yuanwu walked up to Zhang Chengzhi and reported.
Zhang Chengzhi took a deep breath and relaxed his nervous mood a little.
He looked up at the Korcha clan's flag in the west. At this time, a faint fire could be seen in the flag, but the fire was mainly concentrated in the west of the flag, and the east was particularly quiet.
Zhang Chengzhi grinned, "The show is about to begin!"
"Ignite!"
