Chapter 128 Veteran vs.
Ruhu (Part 1) "Well, it's kind of interesting that you actually tried to use Uncle Liu Xin's old tricks against me.
It's a pity that I'm not Wanyan Zongbi."
Seeing that his cavalry had advanced to within 250 steps, but the Red Scarf Army under the city wall was still standing still.
Chu Buha, deputy envoy of Huaidong Lian visit, stroked his beard and curled his lips with a smile.
Note 1 Having been an official in the Central Plains for many years, he has become completely Chinese.
From his dressing up to his style, everything reveals the elegance of a Confucian general.
Unfortunately, his generals were a little confused and couldn't understand the allusions he used.
They all came over and said eagerly: "Sir, don't raise other people's ambitions.
When the end is over, I will bring you the head of the Zhu Demon Bandit."
"Sir, General He and the young general are out with the cavalry.
The last general is willing to go forward first and kill the majestic red scarf thief."
"Sir, I have acquired a new sword, but I am worried that I don't have enough plasma to sharpen it."
"Shut up!"
Chubuha was furious.
He raised his eyes and yelled at several of his confidants and generals, "Don't talk nonsense.
Isn't Zhu Bayi an ordinary thief?
Liu Tietou is usually so powerful that he kills him at any time."
But you still don't take him seriously, haven't you heard that a proud soldier will be defeated?"
"It is the last general who has realized that he was wrong in your teaching."
All the Mongolian and Han generals raised their hands and responded in a low voice.
His proud face was filled with dissatisfaction.
Liu Tietou did indeed die at the hands of the Red Scarf Army, and Zhu Bayi did capture Hanxin City at a speed that no one expected.
But that's because the Red Scarf Army took advantage of the sneak attack.
If Liu Tietou had been prepared in advance, the two sides could fight openly again.
Just the hundred soldiers under Liu Tietou's command are enough for the red scarf thief to drink from a pot.
What's more, there were a thousand garrison troops led by Baoyin outside the city.
As if he had guessed everyone's thoughts, Chu Buha sighed and continued to teach him in a deep voice: "Don't underestimate him too much.
This guy either doesn't understand the art of war at all, or he is just a military genius.
Leave Suqian and Taoyuan behind. and He ignored the three areas of Qinghe and took the water route to Huai'an.
From ancient times to the present, no famous general has dared to take this dangerous move.
Not only did he come, but he also deceived everything I arranged along the river.
Beacon Tower" He inferred Zhu Bayi based on the thoughts of a veteran commander.
Little did he know that this plan was originally planned by Lu Luzeng.
But Lu Zeng only knew how to talk about war on paper and would not consider whether a sneak attack could succeed or whether he could retreat.
Of course, the battle plan drawn up by a nerd and a foolish and bold person will be far beyond the thinking of normal people.
What's more, in the view of Zhu Dapeng, another soul in Zhu Bayi's body, this plan happens to be somewhat similar to the frog leaping operation that only appeared in the 20th century.
Although, Zhu Dapeng didn’t know the essence of the leapfrog tactic at all.
"Yes, you have taught me a lesson, I am waiting for Meng Lang."
Seeing that Chu Buha always admired the enemy commander, the Mongolian and Han generals had no choice but to agree in a low voice.
"Blow the trumpet and stop the cavalry two hundred steps away from the enemy."
Chu Buha glanced at them lightly and gave another order that disappointed everyone.
"Woo, woo, woo" a long horn sound sounded, spreading Chu Buha's latest order throughout the battlefield.
Bange, the commander of Qianmeng Mongolia who was leading the cavalry slowly towards the opponent, frowned when he heard this and pulled the reins of his horse hard.
"Hey!"

Several Mongolian centurions struggled to hold their mounts, and their bodies were pushed towards the horse's neck by inertia.
It took a lot of effort to stabilize themselves again, "Major General, this, Commander, this is" "The military order is like a mountain."
Commander Pange frowned and responded loudly, "And the enemy on the opposite side did not move at all.
Our infantry ran for more than seven miles.
It needs time to recover its strength."
"Here, hi" Centurion Lu Buhua, Bergen, Hu Lu and Hu Linchi all patted the saddles with regret on their faces.
The Mongols were sweeping the world with their cavalry and archery, so they didn't need any Han infantry to keep the enemy still.
When a random arrow was fired at them, their team would naturally be in chaos.
Waiting and waiting like this, when will it be?
"When the whole team is waiting for you to contribute," the commander of the army yelled with a cold face.
He was also very dissatisfied with the orders from the Chinese army.
However, it was his father Chubuha who issued the order.
Whether as a subordinate or as a son, he must strictly obey.
"Dong dong dong, dong dong dong, dong dong dong."
As soon as the horn sound stopped, the thunderous drum beat sounded from Chu Buha's handsome flag.
Ten shirtless Goryeo strong men beat the cowhide drums, urging the infantry behind to hurry up and move closer to the cavalry.
The sword and shield bearers, spearmen, archers, axemen, and the war supervisors who specialized in cutting off their own heads were lined up in rows, marching in neat steps, slowly approaching the cavalry led by Bange.
While traveling, it slowly formed a huge crescent shape.
"This is the anti-Yue formation."
Xu Da, commander of the Red Turban Army, has gained a lot from military training recently and quickly identified the enemy's formation.
"The Yanyue Formation, which was born out of the Song Dynasty, just replaced the infantry in the center with cavalry, and the cavalry that should have been on the wings were replaced with infantry."
"Yeah" Zhu Bayi nodded slightly.
Being able to mix new recruits and veterans together, and also be able to completely change the formation during the march, Chu Buha's commanding ability is absolutely extraordinary.
It was just that he had great doubts about how useful such a complex formation would be in battle.
Because in the memory of later generations, there is no army that cares about square or circular formations.
After a carpet bombing, even the ground could be plowed three feet deep, let alone a military formation composed of flesh and blood.
"Chu Buha has two purposes."
As the son of ten thousand households in the Han army, Chen De has a much deeper understanding of military formations than Xu Da currently.
"One is to use the formation to maximize the power of the combination of various arms.
The other is that he needs time for his soldiers to recover their physical strength and adapt to the battlefield."
"Well, I understand."
Xu Da glanced at Chen De gratefully and suggested with a smile, "Captain, don't give them a chance.
No matter what they want to do, we just don't let them get their way."
"Okay."
Zhu Bayi decisively accepted the suggestion and quickly glanced at Xu Hongsan, "Xu Da is right, no matter what Chu Buha wants to do, we won't let him get his way.
That's Hong San.
Send the order to Huang Laoer, Let him fire the cannon to establish his power"
"Yes" Xu Hongsan agreed simply, took out a red flag with an artillery painted on it from the flag bucket, and raised it high.
"Load live ammunition in each gun position."
Huang Laoer started up and shouted at the top of his voice, "Two hundred steps ahead, fire in turn.
No. 1 gun" "Shoot" he waved his arm vigorously, and the steel knife in his hand struck the wall, splashing out a string of dazzling sparks.
"Boom!"
The more than 570 kilograms of bronze cannon suddenly retracted, the muzzle of the gun flashed, and a four kilograms of pig iron projectile was sprayed out.
"Sun" made a piercing scream, and the projectile flew over a distance of three hundred meters, hit the ground, and then jumped up suddenly, smashing the head of a war horse into pieces.
However, his castration did not slow down at all.

He hit the back of the second war horse, landed on the ground, bounced up, and hit the lower abdomen of the third war horse, the hind legs of the fourth war horse, and the front chest of the rider on the fifth war horse. , and then fell heavily to the ground, swirling and throwing out clouds of scarlet smoke.
Note 2 "Demon Method" The Mongolian cavalry, which had been so high-spirited before, was suddenly in chaos.
Almost everyone was stunned by the huge power of the ricochet, and instinctively pulled their horses to dodge away from where the shells landed.
"It's not a magic method, it's not a magic method, it's a bowl-mouth gun.
The red scarf thief made an extra-large bowl-mouth gun."
The commander was well-informed.
Although he felt very panic in his heart, he was still able to fulfill his duties with all his heart.
Responsibilities.
"Don't panic, just hold on.
It's a bowl-mouth blunderbuss.
The Red Scarf Army just made an extra-large bowl-mouth blunderbuss."
"Sun" his cry was completely covered by another shrill scream.
The second live bullet flew over condescendingly, hitting a Mongolian soldier in the heart, pushing the man directly off the horse, and then continued to knock over two mounts before stopping abruptly.
"Ah!"
A Mongolian leader whose thigh was pinned down by his own horse screamed miserably.
On the deathly silent battlefield, it sounded extremely breathtaking.
Lu Buhua, the centurion of his centurion, immediately implemented military law, raised his sword and killed the man to the ground.
However, fear quickly spread through the entire cavalry like a tide.
Every Mongolian warrior on horseback stared at the city head 200 steps away with panicked eyes, ready to ride their horses to escape at any time.
"This is a blunderbuss.
Don't panic.
They just made it."
Commander Pengge started his mount and ran back and forth in front of his team.
"They just made two extra large blunderbuss.
Those things are not strong and very fragile."
Easy to explode" The third scream of "Sun" came in the sky, passed over his shoulder, and opened an alley of flesh and blood in the team.
All the Mongolian cavalry looked at him angrily and tried their best to scatter their mounts to both sides, although what he said was basically close to the truth.
"Blow the trumpet and let the cavalry charge."
Chubuha, who was further away, sighed and reluctantly issued a tactical adjustment order.
There was no time for the infantry to rest and adapt.
If they continued to rest, the morale of the cavalry would collapse.
Damn Zhu Bayi, no wonder he captured Han Xin City so quickly, which was defended by infantry.
Even if it wasn't a sneak attack, the extra-large bowl-mouth blunderbuss they had was enough to knock Liu Tiet off.
"Woo woo, woo woo, woo woo" the horn sounded, as low as the cold wind in a deep valley.
When the panicked Mongolian cavalry heard this, they immediately shouted in agreement, as if they had been poured a dozen bowls of mandolin juice, "Ahhh, ahhhh, ahhh" "Ah, ah, ah, ah," the commander Pange shouted as he took off the horn bow from his back and kicked the stirrups hard with both feet.
The Liaohe horse on his crotch immediately began to accelerate, leading him, like a wild beast out of its cage, towards the Red Scarf Army on the opposite side.
More than 480 Mongolian cavalry, led by their respective centurions, also howled and galloped to follow.
The entire team moved forward at high speed, like a pack of hungry wolves.
"Japan's" fourth live bullet flew into the air and knocked down a Mongolian cavalry, but it did not cause huge panic like the first three live bullets.
The courage and bloodiness of the Mongolian warriors were all aroused by the sound of horns and shouts, and they accelerated, accelerated, and continued to accelerate toward the Red Turban Army soldiers under the city wall.
"The sword and shield bearers crouched down and the spearmen stood straight ahead, raising their spears."
Seeing the cavalry on the opposite side getting closer and closer, Zhu Bayi decisively issued an order to change formations.
"Team A, Team B, squat down" "Team C, Team D, Team E, half-crouched, with the tail of the spear on the ground, diagonally upward, with the spear erect."
"Team Ji, Team Geng, and Team Xin, step forward three steps, place the spear on the shoulders of the brothers in the front row, tilt it upward, and erect the spear."
"The auxiliary soldiers of each team stood behind the soldiers and raised their spears."

A series of shouts rang out from the ranks.
Based on the tacit understanding developed during daily training, officers at all levels turned Zhu Bayi's orders into specific instructions and passed them to the ears of the soldiers under their command.
Even counting from the time of the Xuzhou Defense War at the end of November last year, the soldiers in the team have basically been training for less than half a year, and several tactical moves have been engraved on their bones.
After hearing the instructions, he immediately raised his spear, squatting or fighting, forming a huge steel hedgehog.
Following the two wings of the warriors, the auxiliary soldiers, who were arrayed in a Z-shaped formation, and restrained by the efforts of Geng Zaicheng and Ivanov, raised their spears and formed two other iron formations. hedgehog.
If any war horse dared to collide directly with it, it would definitely be stabbed to pieces on the spot.
"Musketeers, prepare to fight."
Zhu Bayi nodded with satisfaction, gritted his teeth, and issued the next order.
They were close.
The enemy was already very close.
It only took them four breaths to go from 200 steps to 100 steps, which was a distance of about fifteen seconds in the future.
The average speed is ten meters per second, and they are running with a heavy load.
Each cavalry wears thick armor.
"Musketeers, form a line behind the spearmen.
Hold your guns and wait for my orders."
Liu Ziyun gritted his teeth and converted the commander's orders into a method he was familiar with.
"Archers and Grenadier Preparations" "Archers, stand behind the musketeers, forming a line" "Grenadier, light the moxa.
Tie the grenade with a sling and check the twister that ignites the fire."
Before the enemy cavalry entered the effective shooting range, Zhu Chenze and Li Ziyu also arranged their brothers in position, and together with the brothers in front, formed a strong embankment.
No matter how urgent the sound of horse hooves came from the front, he remained still.
Only those brothers who had just defected and joined the Red Scarf Army were stunned by the situation in front of them.
More than 3,000 people completed the tactical formation change in just a few breaths.
With such a strong army, how could they not win the battle?
It’s not unfair to lose at their hands.
It’s really not unfair at all.
Note 1: Liu Qi, a famous general of Zhongxing in the Southern Song Dynasty, asked his soldiers to form an array with their backs against the city wall during the Battle of Shunchang.
In the first battle, Wanyan Zongbi Jinwushu's 100,000-strong army was defeated.
Note 2: Black powder fired live ammunition, the three-pounder gun has a range of 360 meters, and the four-pounder gun has a range of 600 meters.
The weight and caliber of the bronze cannon in the book are similar to those of a four-pound cannon.
After deducting certain technological progress parameters, the specific range is calculated as three and a half pounds.
Approximately 450 meters.
Note 3: The operation process of ancient artillery: first, use a worm to remove the debris of the propellant package; second, put a wet sponge into the bore and clean the hot debris that the worm has not removed.
Then put the ammunition at the muzzle, pierce the gunpowder bag with a needle, put in the fuse, and finally light the fuse.
At that time, a skilled soldier could fire a three-pounder in just 30 seconds
