Chapter 186: The Bandit Suppression at Ziwu Mountain (Part 2)(1/2)
"Stop." Wang Ju made a gesture and said.
All three hundred soldiers stopped.
Wang Ju glanced at everyone, and everyone looked calm or excited, but they were not worried.
The main opponent is too weak, less than a hundred people, so everyone is not afraid. This feeling is definitely wrong. If you can win by competing with the number of people, the people of the Central Plains will not be harmed by nomadic people again and again. There are not too many examples of fighting with fewer victory in the past and present, but there is no need to say this.
Wang Ju looked up at the top of the peak again.
Whether this group of bandits can be taken down with the least casualties depends mainly on Qin Hai and the others' performance.
This battle was nothing. First, Yelong Meesheng went into the mountain to inquire for a long time, and then Zhang Qi and Zhao Dajing directly entered the bandits.
Almost all the terrain personnel are well aware of, but they just say it out of the way through the mouth of Yelong Meesheng.
The next bandit suppression is the time to truly train scouts. Use battles to train soldiers!
The bandits have a little more difficult terrain and the harm is not great. When they arrive at the real battlefield, in this vast mountain, scouts must find the main force of the enemy and judge the whereabouts of the enemy. That is the real difficulty.
Therefore, Wang Ju pays more attention to scouts than Yao Shi.
If Sun Mian hadn't come suddenly, he would have planned to reorganize Huachi several battalions and set up a battalion to stomp the White Army.
The word "Treading Bai" is not called "Treading Bai". At this time, it is pronounced as "Treading Waves" thin. Thin means that plants and trees are dense and intertwined, and cannot be entered. Because the grass and trees are dense, the enemy is prone to ambushing, so the word "Treading Bai" is combined to investigate the enemy's ambushing.
That is why the Tang Dynasty called the scout army to trample on the White Army.
The Song Dynasty disappeared, and it was not until Yue Fei officially reset a powerful White Army.
There are no battalions or teams alone now, but training is basically moving closer to the real White Army.
Fifty people were running on the top of the mountain, and their boots were slight sounds, but the morning breeze gradually rose and the waves were loud, covering up the footsteps well.
Gradually, dozens of people stopped when they arrived at the outpost.
Qin Hai looked at the sky, and the stars began to rise in the sky, but the sky was not yet bright, and it was the last dark moment of dawn.
"Silent."
Dozens of creeping near the outpost. There were two bandits patrolling the north side of the outpost, but they were obviously perfunctory and could not be called patrol. Instead, they stood there, leaning against the wall and watching the mountain in the north, dozing.
"Good opportunity." Qin Hai said in his heart, and then made a gesture.
Dozens of people rushed up quickly, and the two woke up, but Qin Hai and the others had already rushed in front of them. They raised their swords and fell, but before they could make a sound, they were killed by random swords. Another group of people pushed open the door and broke in.
Some people also woke up, but Qin Hai and the others were very fast and quickly killed one by one. Although screams were heard, the outpost was easily taken down.
"Get on the torch."
One person lit a torch and threw it down the mountain.
"Go up." Wang Ju shouted.
The screams from the outpost also alarmed the bandits in the village.
"All things happen!" Yang Si immediately put on his clothes and rushed up the mountain with some bandits.
However, their reaction was finally late. Wang Ju and hundreds of officers and soldiers had arrived at the top of the peak. He glanced at the foot of the mountain and looked at the outpost. The outpost was very simple, but the north side of the outpost was filled with hundreds of stones.
The soldiers looked at the stones and were sweating in a cold sweat.
We cannot underestimate these nearly 100 bandits. If we either took down the outpost in advance, we would have a good drink of these stones.
"Prepare to fight." Wang Ju said.
During this march, a total of four groups were divided into four groups. Qin Hai and the others set out first, and they were waiting under the cliff. It was very troublesome to put away the rope and it was too late, so some troops were divided. If there were escaped bandits following the rope, they would be just right to make a target.
The remaining two routes are the main forces, one by Yao Yi, or the other by Wang Ju, who will climb to the top of the mountain first and take down this important place. It is not that Wang Ju seized the merits, but the task in the south is heavier. Except for the empty space in front of the village wall, there are dense forests outside, which can easily allow bandits to rush into the forest and escape from the sky. This requires strong dispatching ability to complete.
Yang Si and more than 40 people gradually approached the peak.
Wang Ju looked at them coldly. Seeing that there were only thirty or forty steps, Yang Si had raised his bow and arrow and was about to start the first shooting. Wang Ju shouted: "Shoot."
Hundreds of arrows flew out.
With just one round of arrows, most of the bandits fell down. Seeing that the situation was not good, the rest shouted: "The officers and soldiers are strong, escape quickly."
Let's turn our heads together and flee to the bottom of the mountain.
Wang Ju asked dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you aim and then shoot the arrow?"
The situation is a bit complicated, the peak is so big. Although the Song army came up, they could not stand in the formation and shoot arrows. There were many trees on the mountain, and some bandits were clever and hid behind the trees and were not shot.
However, everyone lacked practical experience, which allowed more than a dozen bandits to escape from the mountain. However, some bandits who were shot dead were shot into hedgehogs, while others were only shot with an arrow.
"Kill them all and wait for dawn."
Hundreds of officers and soldiers rushed down the mountain, but did not go too far. They just killed some of the wounded and retreated.
Yang Si also escaped by chance, hurriedly fled to the mountain village and shouted, "Prepare to escape."
"Not good, there are officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain." A bandit came in to report.
Yao Yi also heard the sound of fighting on the mountain. At the order, more than a thousand officers and soldiers lit torches together, blocking the way to the mountain village.
"Run out." Yang Si shouted in panic, even the wealth in the mountain village was not needed, and he rushed out with the remaining bandits.
Yao Yi climbed up a big tree and stood on the branch. He did not command with a flag. Before dawn, everyone could not see the flag, so he held a big torch in his hand and directed the flag.
Arrows kept flying out of the woods.
After a while, Yang Si shouted again: "Retreat."
This is not a breakthrough, but a death sentence.
The bandits retreated back to the mountain village, and Yang Si asked repeatedly: "What should I do? What should I do?"
"Where is Qin Sanlang?"
"No one saw them. They were shot to death by arrows when they broke through the siege." said a bandit.
"Why did the officers and soldiers enter the mountain?"
"Maybe the Feng family reported the case."
"Feng family, we rushed out and wanted to kill the Feng family without leaving any other. These dog officials are indeed not good things."
The village was in chaos, and the morning glow finally appeared in the sky. Wang Ju said, "It's almost time. Qin Hai, you continue to stay here with fifty people. Remember, you must not let one escape."
"Here."
Wang Ju and the remaining officers and soldiers slowly pressed towards the mountain village.
It was even more chaotic when I saw officers and soldiers coming from above in the mountain village.
Yang Sidao: "Put those women out."
The bandits issued more than a dozen women, all of whom were good women captured by Yang Si and the others, but they were locked up on the mountain and tortured them so much that they were not adults.
"Use them as shields and stand in front."
"What should I do?" Zhou Zhizhi asked.
If Wang Ju were not there, Yao Yi might not care, but he could not understand Wang Ju's thoughts, and thought for a while and said, "Change the formation."
Seeing that Song Jun had not shot arrows, Yang Si laughed: "Come on, I have a kind of shooting arrows."
No one in the forest made a sound.
Yang Si and his men held the women's necks with knives and rushed down the mountain.
He was wrong. If there were fifty or sixty women in the village, each of them could have one woman as a hostage and then scattered and rushed down the mountain, Yao Yi might have a headache. But there were only a dozen women as hostages, and Yao Yi was not afraid at all.
As they held the women and rushed down the mountain, the forest began to change formations, and the figures kept shaking, and more than twenty gangsters were put in. Yao Yi waved the torch down fiercely, and the arrow flew up again. At the same time, the ambush in the forest rushed towards the more than twenty bandits.
There are too many troops, and there are more than 1,000 people in the Song army here, so how can I escape?
Some soldiers jumped out of the trees, while others rushed out of the forest.
Only one woman was killed by a crazy bandit, and the rest were quickly shot or surrendered. Yang Si was surrounded by twenty Song soldiers. Although he had outstanding martial arts skills, he injured several Song soldiers, but was eventually killed by the rifle blade.
"Kill, no one will be left." Yao Yi said.
Even if they surrender, they all killed them. In a flash, only more than thirty bandits escaped back to the mountain village by luck, and all the rest were killed.
"Tao Xie Du, you bring ten brothers to the rear to place these women."
"Here."
Yao Yi continued to mobilize his troops and did not attack the village, but continued to surround the front of the village layer by layer.
Wang Ju had already brought his troops to the back of the village.
"Prepare to hit the wood." Wang Ju passed the first order.
Dozens of Song soldiers pulled out the axes behind them, picked up a few thick fir trees and started chopping them up.
A few trees will be cut down after a while.
"Shield protection, the archers are divided into three rows of protection, and use the wooden to hit the fence." Wang Ju said.
It is difficult to conquer the front of the village, and the terrain is too dangerous, but there is no advantage in the terrain behind. Moreover, the walls of the village are very short, so they are barely tall for one person, and most of them are fences.
Nearly a hundred Song soldiers carried the wooden slamming into the fences, and each soldier was protected by a shield. The remaining Song soldiers bent their bows and arrows and radiated behind the village wall.
