In order to make this Xia army look more like the Song army, before launching a surprise attack, the four Li De brothers discussed hiding all the war horses, and selected the guards from the army who thought they were older to temporarily play the role of deputy commander; The establishment of the Song army was completely different from that of the Xia army, and the Song army was divided into the Central Army of the Forbidden Army, the local garrison of the Xiang Army, the reserve force of the township soldiers, and the mercenary army.
The establishment of the Song army was four levels: box, army, battalion, and capital, with ten armies under each compartment, five battalions under each army, and ten under each battalion; Each compartment has a commander, each army has a commander and a military commander, each battalion has a commander and a deputy commander, and each has a commander and a deputy commander, and each has a commander and a deputy commander called the military envoy and the deputy head horse army is called the soldier and horse envoy; The Song army was one hundred people, which was equivalent to a hundred people of the Xia army; According to this calculation, a battalion of the Song army was 1,000 people, each army was 5,000 people, and each box was 50,000 people, but the actual situation sometimes some armies would be a little overnumbered.
The army led by the four Li De brothers was less than 500 people, so an older guard was asked to play the role of deputy commander, according to the information obtained by Li Qing, the Song army guarding the camp was between 200 and 300 people, that is, there were only two, and one deputy commander was enough to suppress these two heads.
"Quick, open the camp gate to Lao Tzu."
The deputy commander stood under the camp gate and shouted.
The soldiers of the Song army guarding the camp did not immediately open the city gate when they saw that there were their own troops under the city gate, but said to the people around them: "Go and call the two lords." ” Soon the two of them were called over, and the deputy commander immediately scolded: "Your grandmother, hurry up and open the door for Lao Tzu, don't you see that the brothers behind Lao Tzu are tired?"
The two looked at the Song army under the city and there was nothing unusual, in addition to the scolding of the deputy commander, the instinctive reaction was to immediately open the city gate and let this friendly army in, in the case of the Song army's successive battles, who would have thought that there would be a small army of the Xia army disguised as the Song army, not to mention that this is already the hinterland of the Song army, and the Xia army has long been beaten to the head of the rat.
So the two heads immediately ran down from the low city wall, opened the city gate, greeted each other with a smile and said: "My lord has worked hard all the way, but my brother is not well entertained, and my lord will invite you." ” The deputy commander sneered: "You have been very thoughtful, but you will never have a chance to entertain in the future." ” After the deputy commander finished speaking, he immediately drew his knife and killed the two heads, the action was simply smooth, and the two knives hit the necks of the two heads directly, and the blood sprayed on the spot; The city gate has been opened, which means that the Song army has lost the favorable terrain, this fake Song army immediately entered the city, because everyone is wearing the armor of the Song army, so the Song army can not tell who is the enemy and who is the friend, but the Xia army can be clearly distinguished, the reason is that each Xia army has a red rope tied to the wrist, this detail naturally did not let the Song army find.
Often the two soldiers of the Xia Army pretended to fight each other, attracted the real Song Army soldiers, and then joined forces to kill the Song Army; The Xia army originally had an advantage in terms of troops, and in addition to the strategy of luring the enemy, the Song army did not have a unified command, so in less than an hour, the Xia army completely solved all the Song troops guarding this camp, and the Xia army only paid the price of dozens of casualties, but the results were quite fruitful, in addition to more than two hundred sets of Song army weapons and armor, there were hundreds of stones, grain and grass and hundreds of taels of silver, and a group of Xia people were rescued, mainly some women, who had completely become the camp prostitutes of the Song army.
Of course, on this road, Li De and others saw a tragic scene not only that, from Yanzhou to the east, you can see the corpses of the people of Daxia everywhere on this road, most of them died under the butcher's knife of the Song army, most of the dead were old people and children, the strong men generally became slaves of the Song army, and the women became camp prostitutes, and they had to bear the insults of the Song army every day; It is normal for this phenomenon to occur during this period, the ancient army was a group of bandits, and the place where they passed was like being gnawed by locusts, and it was better in their own country, but once they arrived in the enemy country, it was a beastly hair After rescuing more than 100 people, Li De said to the other three brothers: "It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, and the whole army is ordered to take away all useful things and immediately withdraw to the mountains." ” "It's the third brother, I'll do it."
Li Ke said.
After entering this war, Li De, Li Ke, Li Hao, and Li Qing have gradually adapted to the battlefield, although there is still a feeling of turning over the river and the sea, but it will not vomit, after all the things are cleaned up, Li De led the more than 400 troops and more than 100 people to withdraw to the depths of Hengshan, in this vast mountain, the first thing Li De has to do is to find a place to live, and then he can talk about the development of the grain route for attacking the Song army.
Li De found a young man among the rescued people and asked, "What is your name?"
"Dog."
"Dog, let me ask you, do you know if there are any villages around here?"
asked Li De.
"Adults, villains are not here, we are all people who fled from Xiazhou, and we are not familiar with this place."
"Big brother, between me, we should now find a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack and set up camp first, this person has to be found slowly, anyway, we now have manpower and food, and it is not difficult to survive."
Li Qing said to Li De.
"That's all there is to it."
Li De said helplessly.
Li De, Li Ke, Li Hao, and Li Qing never thought that it would be so difficult for this army to fight, not to mention that they are now alone in the depths, everything depends on themselves, the princes who have been used to eating and drinking since childhood, and it is really difficult to adapt to the hard life of coarse tea and light rice every day, but all this is their own choice, at this time, even if they want to retreat, it is impossible, every night, the four of them will find a place where no one is around, and the four of them will hug their heads and cry, It wasn't until today that they understood what a real battlefield was, and how did the Great Xia Empire come about; It wasn't just sitting in the big tent and coming up with two ideas, but their father and brother came up with a sword.
Crying is the most useless, after crying for a while, the four of them still have to face everything, because they are not alone now, there are more than 400 Xia soldiers and more than 100 people behind them, their life and death are completely under the control of these four people, especially Li De, Li De is the eldest of the four brothers, this sixteen-year-old boy, from today on, he will lead his three younger brothers and these more than 500 people to survive in this vast Hengshan, All their food, clothes and other daily necessities need to be solved by themselves, and there is only one way to solve these problems, and that is to snatch them from Song Jun's mouth.
Now Li De, Li Ke, Li Hao and Li Qing are no longer just fighting to cut off the grain route of the Song army, but the important thing is to fight for their own survival, because only by surviving can they have a chance to cut off the grain route of the Song army, and if they can't survive even the most basic, everything else is nonsense.
