MTL - Three Kingdoms-Chapter 2821 The pawns are divided into three ranks, and the mountain roads in other places are divided into front and back.
Chapter 2821 The difference between the upper and lower ranks of soldiers
The generals of the Western Regions each have their own characteristics.
Lv Bu always liked to charge into the formation and fight, but as a result, his troops in the headquarters were like wolf dogs. If the wolf king Lv Bu charged fiercely, then the troops in Lu Bu's headquarters would also fight wildly. If Lu Bu turned his horse's head and left, the men and horses in his headquarters also tightened their tails.
Wei Xumao, he played as a support from the beginning to the end. He is an expert in hiding in the distance and shooting arrows, and he did a good job, but it is basically impossible to let him go to the battle.
As for Gao Shun, although his ability to charge into battle is not weak and he can also train soldiers, he has the most reverence for war among all the military academies in the Western Regions.
Like the law enforcement officers of the later feudal dynasties, those who have no awe of the law will probably know the law and break the law, and in the battle, those who have no awe of war will most likely die under the sword. No matter how tyrannical he is for a while, he will inevitably end up tragically in the end.
Moonlight is like water.
His tunnel is very long, like a crooked strip of cloth, and the pass of his tunnel is a knot on this strip.
A node that was destroyed twice and burned twice.
The first time was done by Gao Shun and others, and the second time, these car masters did it themselves.
Gao Shun took people in a row of twenty people and displayed them in his tunnel.
Shields are like a wall, spears are like a forest.
Like the mainstay in the turbulent waves, those Han soldiers who retreated in a panic saw the flag of Gao Shun and the neat queue, or they were relieved, or they were ashamed, or they were rolling and crawling. , that is, they regrouped after Gao Shun's formation.
In the dark night, if there is a sudden attack by thieves, the most fearful thing is that the battle formation has been scattered and unable to gather.
And in the pass, the area is narrow, and the terrain is unfamiliar, the height difference, the broken eaves and the broken walls, the orders cannot be communicated, the eyes and ears cannot be smart, and it is difficult to form an array.
And this place outside the pass is the "old place" where Gao Shun led his troops to attack the pass before gathering. He has some impressions of their respective positions, but even the temporary assignment of orders and flags is omitted. Many After the soldiers saw Gao Shunzhong's military order flag, they went to their positions and returned to the team in despair.
It is indeed dingy.
No one thought that Che Shiren would dare to attack at night. Of course, this also means that these military academies have lost their respect for war.
The night wind howled in the valley, and it seemed that even the heaven and the earth felt the chilling atmosphere, and even the insects in the cracks in the stones closed their throats, silently daring not to make a sound.
Gradually, before and after the Gaoshun array, two worlds were separated.
The chaos in the front pass, the silence in the rear array.
Fortunately, most of the war horses were in the rear. Due to the terrain of the pass itself, there were not many stables and not many horses could be stored. However, it was inevitable that the war horses left in the city were somewhat damaged.
Gao Shun fixed his eyes on the blazing figure at the pass.
Since he was able to launch a night attack, he must be the elite of Che Shi Hou Guo!
pity…
Gao Shun smiled a little.
No matter how elite the troops are, once they fall into the trap, they are just birds struggling in vain.
Amidst the noisy sound waves, suddenly, only a loud "boom" was heard, and the flames suddenly flourished, and the flickering brilliance was like half the sun falling on the ground, and even the moonlight shrank back, and the flames rushed into the sky Then, thick smoke billowed out!
Gao Shun looked at the fire, then raised the saber in his hand: "Raise the flag!" attack! 』
The arrogance of Che Shiren, who was extremely arrogant in the pass, was overwhelmed by the sudden explosion of gunpowder. The heavy smell of gunpowder and sulfur was like opening a hole in hell, and a terrifying breath gushed out from it. .
Near the pass, especially around the explosion point, some of the chariot soldiers were injured by the shock to the inner palace or both ears, and they were dizzy and lost their minds. Some subconsciously escaped from the explosion point, thinking that the smell of sulfur was poisonous. Yes, choking and coughing...
In addition, some wretches who failed to escape the engulfment of the flames due to crowding and slowness had already turned into demon sacrifices. They turned into clusters of fireballs, wailing piercingly, dancing crazily in the hot and bright red light , until the last moment of life.
The elite mountain soldiers of the car division in black clothes and black armor are also like ants on a hot pot. They completely forgot to hide, hiding and escaping in the firelight, completely losing their previous arrogance.
Seeing such a situation, the chaotic generals of the Han army who had been attacked were calmed down one after another. Some people even developed a kind of shame and anger because of their previous weak performance, wishing to kill all these enemies in front of them, so as to make up for it, or prove that their previous self was just a momentary confusion, Xue Yong hasn't given up yet!
Gao Shun roared, and immediately accelerated the speed of pushing forward.
Holding shields, halberds and spears, the soldiers of the Han army charged towards the oncoming heat wave and the fleeing enemies. As the Han army rushed into the pass again, the dismayed enemy soldiers of the chariot division had already fallen down with blood spattering before they could stop and assume a defensive posture. Shouts of killing, roars, exclamations, and screams sounded again from the broken walls of the pass. The sound of weapons clashing was mixed with the muffled sound of flesh and blood splitting and breaking, and the blood stained the ground , the smudge is more vivid.
Because of the need to maintain flexibility in the mountains, these elite chariot masters in black and black plus do not wear thick armor. As jumping soldiers and raids, these elite chariot masters are undoubtedly enough, and they have indeed done a good job At the beginning, Gao Shun and others were caught off guard, but when Gao Shun came back under the pressure of the gunpowder explosion, facing the heavy armored soldiers commanded by Gao Shun, his shortcomings were exposed.
Gao Shun's expression was solemn, his eyes were under his pockets, calm and cold.
No fear.
No fear of death.
Gao Shun put all his energy into the battle in front of him.
This is respect for the opponent and awe for war.
Fighting a rabbit with a lion, you can't afford the slightest chance.
Gao Shun shouted suddenly, kicked his feet hard, and used his waist as a pivot. Not only did he use his shield to block the opponent's knife, but he also pushed the opponent back a step, opening the door wide open!
The cold light of the long knife flashed, and amidst a long and shrill hiss, Gao Shun's opponent was cut with a huge **** where the side ribs were not covered by the leather armor. It was a deflated rubber ball, which fell limply.
After the national enemy soldiers panicked at the rear of the car division, they raised their knives and slashed at Gao Shun. The two armies are fighting, and the brave wins. If you run away timidly, not to mention whether you can really escape your life from the opponent's sword and gun, even the hard-won achievements before will be surrendered.
Although the pass is dilapidated, it is at a height in the middle of his tunnel, with both ends sloping downward. No matter who occupies the pass here, whoever has a little advantage in terms of geographical advantage.
War, isn’t it just such a little bit of advantage, then accumulate, and finally become a victory?
The two or three Che Shi Hou Guo elites who were trying to counterattack might gain something if they faced someone else, but they were facing Gao Shun.
No matter from which angle the knives were slashed, they seemed to be blocked by a solid shield, while the exposed necks, wrists, legs and feet on their bodies seemed to be unable to prevent Gao Shun or stabbing. Or cutting sword.
After just a few breaths, the enemy army who bullied Gao Shun fell down with several cuts, spurting blood all over his body.
Gao Shun took a breath.
His shield, saber, robe, and armor were almost all stained with blood, and it was inevitable that some minced meat would stick to them. Under the light of the fire, the combination of iron and blood was like climbing out of hell. out of the devil.
In the Western Regions, Buddhism flourished.
Naturally, some people in Cheshi’s country were influenced by Buddhism.
In order to promote the teachings of Buddhism, it will naturally preach some topics about hell. The original intention is to let people know how to go astray and do good deeds. source.
Raging fire.
Nose bloody.
Remnants and broken arms.
There is also an evil aura lingering around, even if you take a breath, you will feel snot and tears flowing...
No way, this is the smell of inferior gunpowder.
Gao Shun and the others have seen it before, so they are naturally more or less used to this smell, so they don't feel nervous just because they breathe this breath, even if it is indeed a bit pungent.
The soldiers of Cheshihou Kingdom are different. Most of them are exposed to such smell for the first time, and strange smell is always scary. Especially at the moment when the gunpowder exploded before, the smoke and flames engulfed many soldiers of the Cheshihou Kingdom in the surrounding area, and it also made these devout Buddhist disciples involuntarily think of some of the **** they usually talk about.
The elites of Che Shiguo were frightened. They looked at each other, expecting others to step forward, while their own legs were backward.
Che Shiguo's plan is not too complicated. A small army will attack at night, and a large army will follow up. It would be even better if they can burn food and grass, and defeat Gao Shun. good. This kind of plan is very common and normal. Anyway, any situation may arise on the battlefield, and they dare not make sure that their troops can reach that point before the battle begins.
However, most Che Shi people thought that even if they couldn't defeat Gao Shun, they could burn Gao Shun's food and grass smoothly, and at least hinder Gao Shun's progress...
But they didn't expect that Gao Shun didn't put the main grain and grass in the pass from the beginning!
If the food and grass for the horses are destroyed, Gao Shun and the others will not be able to face the follow-up battle without the horses even if they are not chaotic. On the one hand, Gao Shun and the others really don’t have much food and grass, so they don’t need an extra large area to store it; The horses bring food and grass on the other side of the pass.
One wrong step is wrong step by step.
The ordinary soldiers assembled outside his tunnel by Che Shi Houguo rushed to catch up after seeing the flames at the pass, and there was nothing wrong with following the serious tactical arrangement. The sharp knife opens the door, followed by the sledgehammer, and drives the opponent down the pass with a bang. If there is a chance, he can even smash and chase for thirty or fifty miles...
If you want to say that these elites of the Che Shi Hou country are not all mediocre, there are indeed some warriors.
Gao Shun watched, not far ahead, Chen Sanlang led a group of soldiers to face an elite car master wearing black leather armor and a black-faced white-tooth mask.
The elite chariot master had extraordinary martial arts skills, and he could not splash the double scimitar in his hand. Chen Sanlang took a few long spears under his hand and couldn't hold them back. The half-moon-shaped scimitar on the top slashed at the shoulder and chest of a Han soldier. The sharp blade directly pierced the armor and opened a terrible wound!
Following the miserable sound of the blade cutting into the bone, the Han soldier let out a heart-piercing cry of pain and fell to the ground trembling.
The blood rained heavily, and when the elite chariot master slashed at the Han soldier with his scimitar, his own empty door was exposed, and then he heard a few loud shouts in Chinese, although he He couldn't understand the Chinese, but he could guess the meaning. When he hurriedly dodged, it was over. Two spears on the left and the right blocked his escape route. Failed to dodge the spear on the right.
Chen Sanlang held out his long spear and pierced through the empty door on his right side. The sharp point of the spear pierced the cowhide armor on the driver's elite body, pierced deeply into his body, and pushed him backwards.
The intense pain made Che Shi Jingrui's whole body twitch. Blood spurted out from under his mask, staining the white teeth on his mask red. He roared loudly, clutching the spear tightly with one hand, and holding his hand with the other The scimitar on his chest was thrown towards Chen Sanlang!
Chen Sanlang was about to evade, but found that the handle of his gun was tightly grabbed by the opponent, he was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't abandon the gun immediately, when he saw the scimitar coming towards him!
Gao Shun rushed to him, raised his hand and flew the scimitar.
Although the face of the elite driver was covered with a mask, there was still regret in his eyes, and then he fell on his back...
The clash of metal and iron was only a short and cruel contact, and the elite car masters suffered a lot of damage.
Seeing these cruel scenes, and seeing Gao Shun leading the people forward like waves, these elite car masters began to panic, not even the masked black armored soldiers. exception.
『The Black Mask leads his team! Gao Shun discovered the characteristics of this group of black armored soldiers, so he shouted, "Kill the black masked generation with a heavy blow!" 』
There were originally 500 mountain soldiers in Che Shihou country, but they were damaged later and could not be replenished. This time they attacked Gaoshun, and they stayed behind. , more than a dozen people fell to their deaths on the road, and only about three hundred people actually rushed into the pass.
As a result, there were not many casualties during the battle for the West City Gate. On the contrary, when trying to chase Gao Shun and the others, more than 20 people were killed by gunpowder, and then they were beaten back by Gao Shun's men. Nearly one-third of them were lost, and even a dozen of them died with the black-faced military academy.
Normally speaking, most of the casualties in the era of cold weapons occurred in the process of hunting and killing. The number of casualties in real positional battles is not too many, and more than 20% is already considered a high battle loss.
The kind of troops with high battle losses and still not retreating did exist in the cold weapon era, and there were quite a few, but they were still a minority. Because if you can leave a number in the historical records, it is basically first-class and powerful, just like an honest official will leave a name, but most officials of the feudal dynasty can only put their names on the meeting That's all.
Compared with other soldiers, the soldiers of Che Shi Houguo are really good, but the current casualty rate is so high, they themselves are frightened, and because of the many casualties of low-level officers, they have lost their organization. Most of them fought independently, which further increased their casualties and made them unable to support themselves.
Originally they were confident in their bravery, their courage in hand-to-hand combat in night battles, but in the battle with Gao Shun's men, they found that they did not have the slightest advantage. Courage, which made their remaining courage dissipate even more quickly.
Especially the soldiers of Gaoshun headquarters, the tacit understanding formed through hard training almost penetrated into the bone marrow. These soldiers belonging to Gao Shun's headquarters never fought alone, at least they fought against the enemy in units of five. Defense with shields, assassination with long spears, mending with knives, if it wasn't for poor vision in the dark night, long-range attacks with bows and crossbows would be unavoidable, which makes it difficult for the elite chariot masters to display their bravery...
Unless the idea is to exchange life for life, it is possible to exchange life for injury in the face of multiple attacks. Otherwise, they can only passively resist the attack, and then if there is a little negligence, they will be beaten to death by the group.
Under the powerful impact of Gao Shun and his men, a dozen or so elite black-armored chariot masters who were still resisting were quickly killed and scattered, revealing some ordinary charioteer soldiers who rushed up not long after them, and some simply dressed The chariot division has no armored slave soldiers.
The army system of the Che Division is actually more or less retained in the structure of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Divided into high-level soldiers, general followers, and low-level slave soldiers. Like a pyramid structure. Most of the high-ranking soldiers above are family heirlooms, similar to the Shiqing in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, or the knight class in the Middle Ages. Their martial arts are generally good.
The entourage is generally the helper of these family warriors, similar to the doorman, eat and drink with the master on weekdays, and work together when fighting...
As for those enslaved soldiers, basically they don't have any fighting qualities at all, and they are temporarily recruited.
The elite chariot soldiers in the front were defeated, and the ordinary followers and a large number of slave soldiers who followed behind could not help but show fear when they saw Gao Shun and others rushing out in the flames. From the bottom of the mountain to the pass, what about taking advantage of the victory and pursuing it?
Even those elite black armors who are usually high above the top can’t stop the Han soldiers, can they be able to stop them?
Seeing those black armored soldiers being driven out of the pass by Gao Shun and others like chasing rabbits, these ordinary chariot soldiers and enslaved soldiers who didn't even have proper armor just had a little bit of fun, and then they scattered with a bang, what a mess The ones who climbed up, how come they rushed down in a mess...
Gao Shun looked up at the sky, and then sent an order for the troops behind to get on their horses, ready to chase and kill them for a while, at least to defeat the chariot camp that he was in Taniguchi!
