I want to be emperor

Chapter 18 'Brutal' War
Dilong is very upset!

It's only been a few months since I ran to Funiu Mountain, and officers and soldiers came to my door so soon.

When the outside sentries reported the news, they were all scrambling, because the people who came were not good.

There were not many people who came, and it was estimated that there were only a few dozen people, but many of these people were armored, and they still led the horses. The weapons and equipment they used were also very complete, and they did not Few people are still wearing the robes of officers and soldiers.

When the sentry saw these people, their first reaction was that the elite officers and soldiers were calling.

These people really look like elite officers and soldiers.

The officers and soldiers came to the door?
This made Gundilong very unhappy. These officers and soldiers were full and supported, so why did they always have trouble with themselves.

In the past, when bandits robbed houses, they were often chased by officers and soldiers.

Last year, a large number of rebels came to the area of ​​Nanyang Mansion. Seeing this, he changed himself and took a few old brothers to play rebellion.

First he defected to the bandit army, but he was unlucky. Just after he joined a bandit army, he was encircled and suppressed by the government army.

In desperation, he had no choice but to flee for his life with his old brother, gathering other thieves on the way. After running, he found that he had dozens of people under his command.

Although these dozens of people don't even have a knife in their hands, they are still dozens of people.

He felt that it would be better to hang out with others than to hang out by himself, so he called himself a ground dragon, raised the banner of rebellion, kidnapped more than 100 young men, and robbed a group of women and children along the way.

All the way to avoid the encirclement and suppression of officers and soldiers, all the way to burn, kill and looting ran to Funiu Mountain.

After entering the mountain, his ambition grew even more after he got rid of the officers and soldiers. He directly occupied Sanshui Village, a small village in the depths of Funiu Mountain, and became a bandit, and began to frequently plunder the surrounding villages.

He figured, if this continues, he will be able to pull out thousands of people in a short time, and who will dare to say that he is not the real dragon emperor?
But I didn't expect that after only a month or so of this good day, someone reported that the officers and soldiers came to kill me.

"Don't be afraid, there are only a few dozen officers and soldiers here, let's go, I will take you to block the officers and soldiers." That's what he said, but Fandilong himself didn't have much confidence.

After talking about the scene, Fan Dilong immediately gathered the troops and prepared to face the officers and soldiers.

In a short while, he had gathered nearly 200 people.

In their group, there were only about 200 young and strong people, and there were dozens of women who plundered and went up the mountain for everyone's entertainment.

As for the old and the weak, there is none!

Fan Dilong led the people all the way out, and it didn't take long before he saw a group of officers and soldiers in front.

"These are really officers and soldiers?" Fan Dilong looked at it, but he was a little afraid to confirm it.

Fandilong is also a well-informed person. He has seen many officers and soldiers, and he has also seen those elite cavalry.

But, these people in front of me don't look like each other!

The main reason is that their clothes are messy. Although many of them are wearing the robes of officers and soldiers, more people are in casual clothes, and there is no official lord sitting in a sedan chair.

What Fan Dilong and the others saw was naturally Luo Zhixue and his group.

Fan Dilong and the others mistook this group of people for officers and soldiers, mainly Luo Zhixue and his group were rebels who were former officers and soldiers.

Not only did they have many mules and horses, but they also had armor on their bodies. As for weapons, they also had all kinds of weapons, including waist knives, spears, and even bows and arrows.

This is not the image of an ordinary thief!
Sun Chengli and Luo Zhixue naturally wouldn't go up and talk to Fan Dilong about their backgrounds in detail. After they came outside Sanshui Village, they had already started to prepare for battle step by step.

They were originally officers and soldiers. Although they are rebels now, they still have the rules of war that should be there.

Sun Chengli quickly arranged the team. Once the preparations were complete, Sun Chengli rode his horse back and forth in front of the queue, and at the same time said in a loud voice: "Listen up, everyone, this time we are here to grab the territory. This Funiu Mountain is a good place, if we occupy this place, we will be able to eat delicious food and drink spicy food in the future."

"And there is still a lot of food they robbed in this village. If it's not for this territory, even if it's for food, you have to fuck it."

"Also, it's just a group of thieves inside. We've killed [-] if not [-] such thieves before, so everyone should take it easy when they charge up later, and don't fall into the hands of these little thieves. The boat capsized, or else I would have laughed off my front teeth!"

Sun Jiancheng yelled back and forth in the queue, his words were not organized, and he said some random words, but in summary: there is a group of scum on the opposite side, brothers follow me to grab food, guns and women grab territory!
At this time, Luo Zhixue looked at Sun Jiancheng in front of him, who was carrying out a somewhat different kind of pre-war mobilization.

Regardless of what he said, everyone's morale was quite good, which gave Luo Zhixue a lot of confidence in the upcoming battle.

After Sun Chengli talked a lot of nonsense, he returned to Luo Zhixue's side.

Immediately after a wave of his hand, he officially ordered the attack to begin.

It's just a group of rogues fighting in this barren mountain, and these rogues just temporarily live in a small village in a valley. There is only a low wooden fence in the village.

Fan Dilong knew that it was unreliable to hide in the village, so he ran directly outside the village with his people, trying to resist on the hillside by relying on the ramp.

Before launching the attack, Sun Jiancheng personally led people to observe the terrain ahead, and then came to such a conclusion: it was just a hundred small thieves, and there was no wall on the opposite side, just rush over and it was over.

Because the terrain was complex and there were not many flat lands and roads for them to charge on horseback, they didn't even ride on horseback when they attacked, but dismounted and fought on foot.

The ensuing battle was indeed as Sun Chengli expected, and it couldn't be simpler.

Wang Dazhuang led the Chinese army to press forward, Lin Dongsheng led the left army, and Xu He led the right army to go around.

A quarter of an hour later, the distance between the two sides was relatively close, and after about a hundred meters, Wang Dazhuang and others in front ordered to shoot arrows.

The men under them are all cavalry, and many of them are proficient in horse archery and can directly play cavalry and archery. Even cavalry who can't play cavalry and archery can still dismount and hold bows and arrows to shoot arrows.

There were more than 60 of them, except for Luo Zhixue and Lin Ahyu, the others had two sets of bows and arrows, one for riding and one for walking.

Now they all go into battle with step bows.

As Sun Chengli's cavalry began to shoot arrows with their step bows, the thieves in the front let out screams from time to time, and Luo Zhixue could see clearly from behind.

Because the distance is quite far, in fact, there are not many thieves who were hit by arrows on the opposite side, and there were only six or seven people who died.

but……

What happened next made Luo Zhixue unable to understand.

Because the thieves on the opposite side collapsed after six or seven people were shot with arrows!

First, a few people turned around and ran away, followed by dozens of people, and finally their two hundred people all turned around and ran away.

At this time, the cavalry closest to them was still 50 meters away.

Lin Dongsheng's troops and Xu He's troops, which were designed to attack the flanks by detours on the left and right sides, had only walked halfway, and were far from reaching the predetermined positions.

However, the opposite side has already collapsed under the sporadic arrow rain.

Not an organized retreat, but a crash.

Even if he is not very proficient in military affairs, Luo Zhixue can actually tell that the 200 people on the opposite side turned and fled. It is definitely not an organized retreat, because an organized retreat is absolutely impossible to be so chaotic, and they are running around.

The 200 people in front of them really collapsed.

but……

They haven't officially fought hand to hand yet!

Even the cavalry shot arrows and killed no more than six or seven people.

Just killed and injured so few people, and the other side collapsed?
So scumbag?
To be honest, this far exceeded Luo Zhixue's expectation.

Originally, he thought that even if the fight went smoothly, he still had to rush forward to fight.

And he previously thought that even if Sun Chengli and the others had great combat power, they would inevitably die or injure a few people. Even Luo Zhixue had people prepare healing medicines in advance, and based on his later generations' knowledge, he collected and prepared them in advance. A bottle of fire.

When he broke through the siege in Yiyang before, the battle between the crowd and the cavalry under Chen Zhibang still left a deep impression on him.

At that time, when the two armies were fighting, swords and swords clashed, horses screamed, and flesh and blood flew everywhere. Dozens of people were killed or injured in just ten minutes.

So Luo Zhixue has a very deep understanding of the cruelty of war in this era.

but……

What you see now is different from what you saw before!

Seeing how the opponent is fleeing now, Wang Dazhuang and his cavalry didn't even use up much of their strength, let alone casualties.

No wonder Sun Chengli was so casual when mobilizing before the war just now, he even joked, telling everyone to take it easy, and don't make him laugh out loud when the boat capsizes in the gutter.

Looking at the current posture, if someone is really injured in this battle, I am afraid that Sun Chengli will really laugh his teeth out.

Surprised, Luo Zhixue couldn't help but muttered: "So careless?"

Sun Chengli laughed: "Mr. Luo, the opposite side is just a group of rogues. They don't even have a few knives, armor, and strong bows. It's easy to beat such rogues."

Luo Zhixue said: "These thieves are so weak in battle, why can't the government and army be encircled and suppressed for many years?"

Sun Chengli said: "Not all thieves are like this. Most of the thieves are actually just refugees who have been coerced. If you rush against them, they will disperse by themselves!"

"However, some big bosses will basically have such an elite backbone. Most of these bandit troops have many mules and horses, well-equipped weapons, and most of them are old bandits. In real fighting, they will not be much worse than the elite officers and soldiers. There are only a small number of people, if there is no such an elite backbone, they can still jump up to now, they would have been wiped out long ago!"
