choke element

Chapter 104 Bash

In front of and behind Guo Ning, the soldiers either packed up their luggage, checked their bows and knives, or seized the time to feed the horses a few mouthfuls of dry food.The team of thousands of people looked chaotic.

But Guo Ning knows that in the chaos, there is its own logic of operation.These 1000 people are all capable veterans who came to Hebei from the bloody battle in northern Xinjiang. They have fought too many battles and been chased too many times. In the bottom of their hearts, they have long been used to such scenes.

Those generals, special generals, commissioners, and appellants are all particularly brave people selected from among the veterans.They grinned and moved wildly, but in fact everything was under control and there would be no delay.

It was already bright and the sun was hot. If you look around, you can only see patches of reeds and miscellaneous trees scattered among wetlands, river beaches and undulating slopes.

There is a river farther to the west, and the river is very shallow.The water surface overflows on the open gravel beach, and the sun shines, sparkling like a silver belt.The river flows from north to west, then turns east, and finally flows into Bianwu Lake.

Bianwudian is just to the east, and there are some continuous meadows on the edge of the water lake.

Yila Chucai and Wanyan Congjia had already taken refuge in Ya'er Village deep in the meadow.

There is an abandoned pier behind Ya'er Village. If they are lucky, they may even find a boat or two.

The soldiers around were still making noise, and under the cover of the noise, some kind of extremely subtle dull sound seemed to be slowly approaching.Guo Ning listened carefully, but he didn't seem to.But he knew that the voice was indeed there.

Although he is young, he has been battle-tested and extremely experienced in battle.After hundreds of battles, large and small, people will inexplicably develop a keen sense, and they will naturally be able to distinguish the upcoming danger.

Guo Ning possessed this ability very early on, so at the beginning of the year, he was plotted against and all his followers were killed. Only he made a prediction when there was no time.

Beside Guo Ning, the officers with the same experience as him also stopped in their tracks, and some of them were winking at each other.Some people wiped their noses and smelled the increasingly thick, moss-like dusty smell in the air... It was the result of the wetland at the edge of the water lake being trampled by horseshoes after being dried up.

Smelling this smell, Guo Ning's yellow puma also seemed to have a premonition, stomping its four hooves excitedly and flicking its tail.

Guo Ning took out a piece of bean cake from the bag behind the saddle, broke it into small pieces, and slowly fed it to the war horse.

While feeding the horses, he asked, "Li Erlang, yesterday you fought with Al Jinchi of the Mongolian army all night, how much did you lose?"

Li Ting's face darkened: "More than 20 people died, including Hu Tai. There are more than a dozen seriously injured and unable to fight anymore."

Needless to say, minor injuries, from Li Ting down, everyone who died yesterday was injured, it was obvious.Breaking the queen is always hard work, that's why Guo Ning won the support of so many soldiers because of his record of fighting the queen.

"So, what is the loss of the Mongols?"

Li Ting said with a smirk, "I'll go off in person, what good can they get? There are no fewer dead than us!"

Guo Ning turned to the generals around him: "If Al Jinchi under the tent of the Mongolian Khan chased us, Li Erlang would probably be even more embarrassed. It would be very difficult to kill and kill us equally. It seems that it is not Mongolia who is chasing us this time. The army headquarters, but a few thousand households newly formed by them."

Hey!Are you saying that you look down on my courage, Li Erlang?
Li Ting muttered, but he also knew that Guo Ning's judgment was correct.

Those Aljinchi of the Mongolian army were as ferocious as a ghost, far better than their opponents last night.If Li Ting's troops ran into them, the loss would be much greater.

He said bitterly: "That's right! Yesterday I saw that the enemy army included not only the other troops in the grassland, but also strange people with yellow hair and blue eyes. They were not Mongolians, but barbarians who were located in the north of the grassland and were no different from wild beasts. In the real headquarters of the Mongolian army, there are no such goods in the thirty or fifty thousand households."

In the early years, the Jin army fought fiercely with Mongolia on the grasslands, and everyone knows the fighting methods that the Mongols are used to.

They first drove the subordinates to be war slaves, forcing them to charge first, then the elite cavalry in the Mongolian headquarters would advance and retreat, and finally the main army would attack.

Because every time a battle is won, there are war slaves who are rewarded and promoted, and the war slaves are continuously converted into regular troops.As a result, the Mongolian army became stronger and stronger, and the number of thousands of households they controlled increased from the initial dozen or twenty to fifty or sixty, and now there are 95.

Among these thousands of households, Genghis Khan selected a few weaker ones composed of captives and slaves to pursue a Jin Kingdom's partial division outside the battlefield, which is very consistent with the use of troops.

Everyone was estimating the situation, Han Xuan pointed to the front: "Two thousand riders have come, it is estimated that there are three to four thousand households."

Everyone looked along his line of sight, and saw Mongolian cavalry appearing from the opposite side of the river beach.Under the sun, their black figures are like gathered black paper-cuts, and their formations are changing like dark clouds falling to the ground, moving slowly along the river, looking for a suitable opportunity to cross the river.

The soldiers who were preparing for the exchange also noticed the movement of the Mongolian army.They inevitably let out a slight restlessness.But then they saw the generals including Guo Ning gathered together, talking as usual, and quickly calmed down.

"Looking at the equipment of armor and weapons, it is indeed a new thousand households built by the Mongols." Several generals said one after another. The relatives around the Khan command the team!"

"I don't care what kind of family he is!"

Guo Ning cursed with a smile, and continued: "No matter how dear you are, you still have one head and two hands, and the battle is fought by the soldiers at the bottom? Ladies and gentlemen, when we confronted the Mongolian army head-on, we were indeed defeated repeatedly. There is nothing to say. But at this moment, the Mongols only sent a few teams of dogs, and we are waiting for work. It doesn't hurt to fight, right?"

In fact, this is the strategy that was decided last night.But when the matter came to an end, the generals were unavoidably a little nervous at the thought of confronting the Mongolian army head-on.

Some people bowed their heads slightly to hide their guilty expressions, and more people watched Guo Ning, wanting to finalize his determination.

And Guo Ning only stared at the approaching Mongolian army.In his eyes, there was no fear at all, instead there was a bit of ridicule, a bit of contempt, and even a bit of bloodthirsty killing intent, like a ferocious beast staring at its prey.

Han Xuan immediately said: "We have been training for several months, and it's time to see blood."

Li Ting also waved his fist and said: "We have to beat them! We can run away with peace of mind until they hurt!"

Guo Ning nodded to the generals.

He spread his palms and said to Ni Yi, "Bring the military flag."

Ni rode his horse back and forth, holding the military flag and offering it high.

The military flags used by the Jin army include five-square flags, eight-diagram flags, and the like. As the main force, the Meng'an Mouke army uses a yellow heart flag surrounded by four colors.The Mongolian army also has a unique battle flag, which has different shapes such as five-color and three-color, and the most important thing is the black and white Sulu Ding army flag.

The military flag Guo Ning chose was pure red.

Holding the nearly two-foot flagpole with one hand, he slammed into the ground heavily.

At this time, the Mongolian iron cavalry was getting closer and closer, as if wrapped in strong wind and smoke.The bright red surface of the military flag was blown by the wind, and it suddenly unfolded, becoming more and more fiery.

Guo Ning said simply: "Assemble, put on armor."

A few hundred steps behind Guo Ning, Wanyan broke away from Jia Chucai's support, poked his head out from the meadow, and took a look at the battlefield.

After all, he had been a Jiedu envoy for decades. Although he had never actually fought a war, he had read a lot of military books.

Seeing this situation, he couldn't help laughing angrily: "Even if you want to fight, you should attack halfway. There's no reason to wait for the Mongolian army to attack and kill you! It's a foolish move, a man's courage!"

Two miles in front of Guo Ning, Tuo Lei rode forward surrounded by several thousand Nayans.

In the [-] miles he brought out this time, there were indeed not many real Mongolian elites.But even the newly-built Qianhu and Baihu have battle-tested members.And it is obvious that the number of one's own side is twice that of the opponent's, so more hits are less.

Beside him, behind him, many knights were talking to each other, wanting to defeat this golden army as soon as possible, so as to divide up their armor, weapons and horses.

When Tuo Lei gradually saw the enemy's arrangement, he couldn't help laughing: "Do the Jurchen knights still have the guts to fight on horseback?"
