Chapter 356 Raid Camp
The gravel scorched by the scorching sun during the day still exudes heat waves until night, the low weeds on the edge of the dunes are listless, and even the wind blowing from the Puchang Sea carries a trace of heat.
The tents of the Shenji Battalion were already empty. Although the oil lamps were still on, all the soldiers had gathered in the open space in the middle of the camp.
Not only the Shenji Battalion, but also all the civilians and wounded from the Supplies Battalion and the Wounded and Sick Battalion gathered here.
Fang Jun looked at the sand dunes to the north, frowning, and his heart was filled with endless anger!
The scouts sent for help had already returned, but what they brought back was not reinforcements from the main force, but a light word from Hou Junji.
"The army is about to attack the city. We will try our best to conquer Gaochang in one battle. We can't divide our troops to rescue. Besides, the main force of the Turks is defending the city and will not go out to rob our army's food road. The cavalry you encounter is just a small group of horse bandits. Your troops Retreat the enemy on your own, and you must not destroy the food, grass, and equipment in the enemy's hands, otherwise you will definitely follow the military law and will never forgive you!"
A small group of bandits? !
I'm going to your mother!
Just behind that sand dune, there are at least a thousand Turkic cavalry!
Cavalry and infantry are inherently incompatible with each other. In addition, the surrounding terrain is flat and there is no danger to defend. If the fierce Turkic cavalry launches a full charge in the open flat ground, the power must be earth-shattering and invincible!
How can I stop it?
When this group of cavalry was detected at noon, Fang Jun discussed with Liu Rengui, Qin Huaidao and others, and got a desperate result - he didn't even dare to run!
Once the formation disperses and is chased by the cavalry with an absolute advantage in speed, the whole army will collapse, and not even a single person can escape!
Only by sticking to the camp and waiting for help, maybe there is still a glimmer of life.
But now...
The two thousand Shenji Battalion, tens of thousands of civilians, and hundreds of wounded were mercilessly abandoned by Hou Junji!
The whole camp was filled with hopeless mourning.
Qin Huaidao glanced at Fang Jun, and said in a low voice: "For the current plan, let the last general lead the civilians to resist for a while, and Hou Ye will take the Shenji Battalion to go north to join the main force, and there may be a chance of life. In the future, Hou Ye It can also find justice for our civilian husbands who were innocently abandoned, and avenge this deep hatred! Otherwise, it will be the end of the entire army, and we will die here in vain!"
Facing desperation, Qin Huaidao did not lose the reputation of his father Qin Qiong, and brazenly resisted with the death!
It is really rare that a 16-year-old honorable queen did not lose her courage and run away alone.
Liu Rengui sighed, with a bitterness on his face: "Not to mention whether he can escape the pursuit of the Turkic cavalry, even if he escapes to the main camp, he will face ruthless military law. When he escapes, he will send his comrades, luggage Give it up, beheading ten times is not an exaggeration!"
Hou Junji refused the reinforcements indifferently, and his intentions were obvious. Even if he escaped the pursuit of the Turkic cavalry, he would not be able to escape Hou Junji's military law.
Qin Huaidao stomped his feet angrily, and said angrily, "How can this little white monkey be so shameless?"
"Little White Monkey" is the title of Hou Junji's folk ridicule.
Hou Junji wandered among the market in his early years, flamboyant and aggressive, ignorant and stealthy, he was obviously short and weak, but boasted of his extraordinary bravery.It was only after being summoned by His Majesty Li Er to enter the Palace of the Prince of Qin that he became a bit of a human being. With Li Er Majesty stepping up to the top of the world, he finally came to the fore.
But among the generals under His Majesty Li Er's command, few of them looked down upon Hou Junji.
Fang Jun turned around and faced the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion standing solemnly behind him.
He shouted in a deep voice: "The Turkic cavalry is nearby, and they may launch a surprise attack at any time. It is a taboo on the battlefield to fight infantry against cavalry, but we have no way to retreat! If we retreat, what will these peasants do? What about the injured brothers in the sick camp? In our Shenji Camp, every soldier is a good man who stands up to the sky! Even if we die, we can't just ignore our robes and act as shameless deserters! The enemy's purpose is to burn these The heavy supplies made it difficult for the army to move forward, so they had to abandon Gaochang Kingdom and retreat to Yumen Pass! Can we let the enemy succeed? We can't! Now, we are the key to the outcome of this war. Instead of escaping, we have to attack Turks!"
Fang Jun was full of nonsense, but successfully mobilized the morale of the soldiers.
The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty have never lacked blood, and now they find that they are about to become the key to the outcome of this war, and all of them are excited!
What about death?
As long as death is worthwhile, meritorious service will be recorded on my head. Although I am dead, my parents, wife and children in the family can receive generous pensions and be exempted from taxes and corvee forever!
Fang Jun continued his efforts: "Our Shenji Battalion is not those motley troops! We are the elite of the elite, the tiger of the tiger! Each of us can be as good as ten, and we have powerful weapons! What about the Turkic cavalry? These barbarians The reason why we can come and go freely in the desert grassland is because we have not met our Shenjiying! From today on, we will use the blood and heads of Turkic cavalry to dye the signboard of Shenjiying red, let the world know that we are the world The first-class strong army!"
There was no loud response, no cheering, and everyone knew that there were Turkic cavalry not far away, and they could not expose their own reality.
However, a strong self-confidence exploded in the army!
Yes, each of us can count as ten, and we also have the powerful "shocking thunder", so what if the Turkic cavalry is powerful?The more powerful it is, the more it can set off the strength of the Shenjiying!
Momentum is a very hanging thing, invisible and intangible, but sometimes, it does exist!
Not only was the morale of the Shenji Battalion soaring like chicken blood, but the spirits of the wounded and civilians on one side were lifted.
Then a wounded soldier asked to fight: "Master Hou, my injury is nothing, let me join the Shenji Battalion!"
Fang Jun smiled slightly and said, "What is the first rule of the Shenji Camp?"
The Two Thousand Shenji Battalion shouted in a low voice: "Don't abandon, don't give up!"
Fang Jun looked at the uplifted soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, feeling endlessly ashamed in his heart.
I actually deceived these soldiers who trusted him so much...
But only by boosting morale and twisting into a single rope, can we have a chance of survival in the face of Turkic cavalry, otherwise the morale of the army will be slackened, and none of them will survive...
Fang Jun took a deep breath, looked around at all the soldiers, and swore in his heart that if he died in battle today, he would naturally forget about everything; Support!
"Now, listen to my orders! The Shenji Battalion is in formation, the spearmen are in front, the shieldmen are assistants, the crossbowmen are behind, and the bombardiers are last! The civilians and wounded soldiers retreat to the south side of the camp. Don't make noise or run away. Those who violate the order will be killed without mercy!"
The entire camp heard footsteps, and everyone took their positions according to orders.
Just as the formation was formed, there was a muffled thunder-like sound in the distance, and even the ground under his feet seemed to be trembling slightly.
The enemy army has begun to charge!
**********
Ashina didn't understand why his brother Khan came here to rob and kill this group of heavy soldiers.
Could it be possible that the siege of Gaochang Kingdom could be solved by burning these grains and grass?
Ashina doesn't have any intellectual talent, his muscles are far more developed than his brain, but he doesn't think this move will help the battle situation.
The food in Gaochang country is piled up like a mountain. As long as the Tang army captures Gaochang City, there will be plenty of food.Besides, this place is not far from Yumen Pass, even if food and grass are temporarily mobilized, there is still enough time to supply the army's supplies.
Of course, a big sweat is a big sweat, no matter how dissatisfied he is with him, he can only prove his strength on his woman, but he dare not openly disobey orders...
When the moon just appeared in the sky, the impatient Ashina gave the order to attack.
No tactics, no strategy, no need at all!
The most elite "affiliated" soldiers among the thousand Turkic warriors, under the command of himself, the number one Turkic warrior, attacked two thousand Tang troops at night. Wouldn't that be like chopping melons and vegetables?As for the tens of thousands of people, they are simply a herd of sheep on the grassland, without the slightest threat!
A thousand cavalry galloped down the sand dunes, and then the terrain increased the speed of the horses to the limit in a very short time. The iron hoofs splashed the mud and sand, and the hooves sounded as dense as raindrops, like thunder rolling in the sky. All trembling slightly!
Ashina did not take the lead, the warm night wind blew in his face, lifted his robe, and the excitement brought by the speed made his blood boil!
Slaughtering weak Han people like cattle and sheep is the most satisfying enjoyment, and it even excites him more than conquering a woman.
Pulling out the scimitar from his waist, he rode his horse into the unsuspecting camp of the Tang army. Ashina stood still, and after beheading these vulnerable Han people, he went to a certain tribe to rob a few women. .How refreshing would it be to do the two things you love most in your life in one night?
Ashina thought happily...
