The world of film and television

Chapter 559
At this time, we can see the importance of equipment. If there is no pocket watch, a series of methods such as igniting fires, rockets, and drums must be used to coordinate the army to act at the same time. However, in this way, when the army launches a surprise attack, the enemy The army will also find out the clues immediately, which reduces the suddenness and gives the enemy a certain amount of preparation time. If one is not good, it is easy to trap yourself.

But now, acting at the same time does not require any communication at all, which can minimize the possibility of the enemy's discovery, maximize the advantage of sneak attack, and minimize the loss of one's own side.

"tread" "tread" "tread" "tread"

The sound of horseshoes sounded loudly on the grassland. Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the target, the soldiers got on their horses one after another, ready to charge at any time.

As the distance approached, the camps of the grassland tribes in the distance suddenly became chaotic, and bursts of shouts sounded, and soon the entire camp was boiling.

The grassland has never been peaceful, and the killing will never stop. Big tribes will find opportunities to annex small and medium tribes. Small tribes always want to grow and grow, because they will be beaten because they are weak. There will also be conflicts due to competition for aquatic plants.

Therefore, on this grassland full of survival crises, any tribe is extremely vigilant. Throughout the dynasties, it is not that the ancients did not know how to go deep into the grassland to fight and support the war, but it is very difficult to attack these tribes on the grassland. Any tribe that can survive on the grassland will engrave in its bones how to sneak attack and how to prevent sneak attack.

Even in the event of a sneak attack, they all have contingency plans, and they will be ready before the enemy launches an attack to deal with the attack of an unknown enemy.

This time the army was able to get so close to be discovered, which is already very rare, and this is due to the detailed and accurate information.

"Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!" "Kill!"

All directions began to charge almost at the same time the camp was discovered. With the help of the bonfire in the camp, 1 people began to ruthlessly strangle the people in the tribe from all sides.

A small tribe of 2000 people, with a total of less than 800 soldiers, how can it resist [-] professional soldiers armed to the teeth like wolves and tigers? Even the people on horseback are useless. All that remained was the shrill wails of the undead, and none of them could stand.

More than 2000 people died, and a large amount of blood flowed out stained the entire camp. The ground was wet when they stepped on it. , even the strong wind on the grassland could not blow them away.

Stepping into the camp, the faces of Zhu Youxiao and his group turned pale. Although it was not the first time to kill so many people, it was the first time for everyone to kill so many people. Fortunately, it was very dark and they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.

With the help of the bonfire and the lit tent, Zhu Youxiao finally saw the dead body on the ground, and frowned and looked towards other places. The sight he saw made his face even more ugly.

It’s not because he is so scared, although there are some, but it’s more because of other reasons, “Teacher, are these Tatars? The latter said Mongols, why can’t I see any difference between them and my Ming people? "

This is the first time he has seen the so-called prairie people. It is completely different from what he imagined. There are no tall noses, deep-set eye sockets, and no blue or other colored pupils. no difference.

"There is no difference at all." Wang Xuan shook his head and said, "For a thousand or two thousand years, do you know how many Han women were plundered on the grassland, and how many grassland people were born? The blood of the Han people has long been the same as that of the grassland people." It is inseparable from each other.”

"It can be said that since the beginning of Wuhuranhua, there is not much difference between grassland people and Central Plains people. The difference is only the difference in living environment, culture and habits. People mainly eat meat, and they are stronger and taller than the Han people."

"Especially the closer you get to the Great Wall, the smaller the gap will be. If you keep heading north, the gap will gradually become more obvious."

"That's why I never said that we should exterminate the grassland people. As long as the language is changed, after a generation, there will be no difference between the Tatars or the Han people."

Zhu Youxiao sighed, "If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be really hard to imagine that there is no difference between the so-called Tatars and Ming people."

"Not only the Tatars, but also the Jurchens. If you don't look at the hairstyle, they are no different from the Han people." Wang Xuan patted Zhu Youxiao's shoulder, "Okay, don't think about these things. Quickly tidy up the team and change to another place to have a good rest.”

Zhu Youxiao cleared up his mood, ordered the soldiers to bury the corpses to prevent plagues, slaughtered cattle and sheep to make food, collected food from small tribes, and tried to use every bit of resources as much as possible. This is the essence of supporting war with war.

After burying the corpse and resting nearby for another day, the main purpose was to roast the meat into jerky for easy portability. The group of people set out on the road again, moving towards the next goal.

After destroying five small tribes in succession along the way, I finally encountered the biggest checkpoint on the way, a medium-sized tribe with a population of no less than 8000 people.

Regarding the situation of the various tribes that he would encounter along the way, Zhu Youxiao already had information in his hands, so he discussed with others how to deal with this medium-sized tribe on the way.

If they are surrounded on all sides as before, a big victory is certain, but losses are inevitable, and the most feared thing is that the time will be delayed afterwards, and then Lin Danhan's golden account at the next stop will get news, then the loss outweighs the gain up.

In Wang Xuan's words, they came to the prairie not to kill many prairie people, but to destroy the entire high-level Tatars and turn the prairie into a piece of loose sand.

Not long after it got dark, judging by the time, it was only around eight o'clock. The tribe on the opposite side was full of bonfires, and it seemed that they hadn't completely rested yet.

Several sentries squatted in the grass and used binoculars to monitor the other party's camp for about two hours. After the entire camp became completely quiet, they returned the same way.

Zhu Youxiao glanced behind him. There were tens of thousands of troops, but more than 4 horses were behind them. Most of them were captured along the way. According to the information from the sentry, Zhu Youxiao confirmed the night attack. direction.

Fifty thousand horses and twenty horseshoes, no matter how careful you are, you will inevitably be spotted by the enemy from a distance. Simply, Zhu Youxiao gave up hiding. With an order, the army began to charge, and the horses behind them seemed to be Migrating in general, following behind the army and advancing rapidly.

The horses running at full speed are very fast. On this boundless prairie, the wind roared in the ears, and the horseshoes rumbled, completely smashing the silent night sky. The whole camp of the Tartars shook.

The Tatars, who were awakened from sleep, looked terrified, thinking that the earth dragon turned over, and it took a long time to realize that it was a large number of cavalry charging.

The entire camp was like a pot of cold water poured into a boiling oil pan, and it exploded completely. The disheveled man ran out of the tent, gritted his teeth, brandished a machete and ran towards his horse. No matter where the enemy came from, he would Trying to get through the night before I can think about anything else.

The cavalry who began to charge could not be resisted by the scattered herdsmen at all. They were like fragile young trees in front of a tumbling mudslide. They were swept in but couldn't make any waves at all, and some were just blood flowers blooming in the air.

Especially when the purpose of the charging army is no longer to kill, under this all-out charge, to say that the mantis arm blocks the car is to flatter them.

The target of the charge was the tribe's stables, where most of the horses rested at night, but when the torrent was about to rush forward, the steeds that lacked their masters immediately realized the danger of life and death, instinctively, tens of thousands of steeds began to run Move in the direction of the charge, trying to avoid damage as much as possible.

How could the simple stables block the horses that were almost on the verge of fright, and were easily smashed apart.

After all, Wang Xuan's army started early enough, their speed was at the limit, and soon mixed with the horses in front of them who had just started to accelerate. When the army rushed through the entire camp, the scale of the 1 army and [-] horses expanded again. , This medium-sized tribe has more than [-] war horses, and most of them have joined the larger team with the trend.

From the beginning to the end of the charge, the total time was only half an hour. After the army rushed through, the entire camp was in a mess. Although Zhu Youxiao had no intention of killing too many people, the torrent still swept many herdsmen in, causing heavy losses in the camp. Of course, the heaviest thing was the loss of tens of thousands of horses.

The night was still so dense, the leader of the tribe was already mad with anger, suddenly the earth shook, and a group of enemies were killed suddenly, and then he saw his camp was completely crushed by iron hooves, the poor little sister just now, this meeting has already been compared with the people on the ground The dust is mixed together and cannot be separated...

Up to now, he has been at a loss, not knowing who the enemy is, completely inexplicable, holding the trousers he just took off from the guard in his hand, staring at the rushing enemy with bloodshot eyes, his lips trembling for a long time, but he didn't Dare to say the word pursuit.

It was too dark, and there were still seven or eight hours before dawn. If this was the enemy's trick to lure the snake out of the hole, then his tribe would be completely finished.

Therefore, I am not cowardly, not afraid of the army like a torrent of steel, but thoughtful, the leader gave me a big thumbs up, tied up my pants, turned around and left.

In the night, with the stars in the sky and the sparse moonlight, Wang Xuan's army went straight to King Lin Danhan's tent.

"I don't know if the plan will go well, and if it will make the people of this tribe suspicious." Zhu Youxiao asked Wang Xuan nervously on the horse galloping at a moderate speed in the night.

This point is very critical. It can be said that it is related to whether there is a chance to fight against Lin Danhan's golden account.

"You think too much. Since the plan has been successfully completed, regardless of success or failure, you have no chance to remedy it now. Therefore, instead of thinking about whether it will succeed or not, it is better to think about two countermeasures, what should be done if it succeeds, and what should be done if it fails!"

"However!" Wang Xuan suddenly changed his tone, and looked at Zhu Youxiao beside him with a smile, "I personally think the possibility of success is very high, at least, before the day is completely bright and the tribe can be sure that there are no other enemies around, it is They will never let down their vigilance, and the tribe has not been beaten to pieces and fled in all directions. The more this is the case, the more they will consider their own safety first. As for our goal, he can't think of it, and he won't forget it. After all, Lin Danhan is The most powerful man on the grassland, how could he easily suspect that our real target is Lin Danhan and send someone to report it!"

"As you can imagine, it's great to use the weakness of human nature to design tactics. Whether it's an individual or a force, when encountering a life-or-death crisis, you always think about yourself first, and then consider others. That person is more important than his own life, so do you think the leaders of this tribe feel that Lin Dan Khan’s comfort is greater than their own?”

"Certainly not. If I am a Ming Dynasty, I pay attention to benevolence, morality, and loyalty. There are too many people who are willing to throw their heads and blood for their beliefs. Too many people think of the entire Ming Dynasty regardless of their own safety at this moment. This is civilization. This is enlightenment, but on this grassland, some are just the jungle, and the law of survival is too barebones, if I want to find someone who is willing to sacrifice his entire tribe for the golden tent, I don't believe there will be one!" Zhu You The principal said it firmly, with a kind of pride in his tone.

Wang Xuan also agrees with this point. Although he doesn't think much of Confucianism, he admits to one thing. Before Confucianism was in a dominant position, or before the Han Dynasty, there was no more rigorous concept of the state. Many great gods travel around the world and work casually.

If Lu is not good, I will go to Han, and if Han is not good, I will go to Zhao, but after Han, this is called a traitor. No matter what the reason, how much you have been wronged, you can resist, but you cannot betray the country, and loyalty has been elevated to an absolute status.

"You are right. The purpose of coming out this time is to test you. I hope you will grow up. Eliminating Lin Danhan is just a goal, but now it seems that you have done a good job."

Zhu Youxiao also showed a smile on his face. He was very convinced of Wang Xuan, and it was not easy to get Wang Xuan's compliment.

The night was long, and Wang Xuan didn't say anything more, but quietly followed the team. The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty are not people on horseback, but they can also develop superb riding skills through hard training.

One night passed, and when dawn came, Wang Xuan already knew that he was not far from his goal when he looked at the mountain in the distance.
