open sea

Chapter 474 Attack
"I have to say that this kind of pre-war etiquette is still very suitable for watching."

The Northern and Southern Dynasties each dispatched four generals to gallop across the wilderness ten miles north of the Fucheng, where the Pegasus caught a single person and fought in one place.

Chen Mu reckoned that he was the only one who could appreciate the battle carefully. The coaches on both sides would definitely not be able to watch carefully with the naked eye, but he could.

If possible, he really wanted to record this once-in-a-lifetime scene.

In fact, it is not a rare occasion. In Japan, his son Chen Bazhi used a mandarin duck to stab a samurai who wanted to fight with him, and Wang Rulong used a bird gun to beat another.

But this is really novel to him, after all, he has never seen it in Daming territory.

"They don't have artillery, and siege battles are not easy to fight. It's not stupid to gain the morale of victory for a while with fewer lives."

Following Chen Mu in Nanyang, he was used to the huge heavy artillery that weighed twenty catties in the artillery temple, and the military guards used five catties for field drills, and most of them used five catties for general Zhenshuo. Now they saw that the enemy had 2000 soldiers and only had twenty small cannons. , even the young general Juniper thought it was not considered a cannon, at most it was called a big blunderbuss.

As he said that, Juniper changed color... Well, the word discoloration cannot describe Juniper, this kid's skin is so dark that it turns purple.

The color didn't change, Juniper was still dark all over his body, but his expression changed, and he said to Chen Mu with a binoculars: "Commander, look at the enemy's formation, their fighters are cut off by horses, but their morale is not affected. He came prepared!"

Come prepared?

Chen Mu fixed his eyes on the battlefield again. Whenever a general in the battle formation in the Southern Dynasty was cut off by his horse, the army would be invincible, shouting and cursing constantly;

On the other hand, looking back at Ruan Juan and Master Chen's four formations, even if the general wins, it will only be three strokes of beating drums. As for being beheaded, it will have no effect on the formation.

In addition, Ruan Juan used the morning fog to drag the generals to the field and set up formations behind the mountains, like a god entrusting a dream.

Just like Juniper said, the soldiers of the Northern Dynasty not only came prepared, but also cheated!

Chen Mu took the lead and sent flying cavalry down the mountain to inform Zhang Shijue, and let him see if there was any change outside the canyon behind him.

As for the sea, there is no need to worry, even if there are only [-] soldiers, and the supervisor Chen Ju commands the artillery, even if the Chihai fleet stops at sea, no one can pass the coast.

Not to mention that the ships that could be dispatched in the Northern Dynasty were either sunk by fishermen or Bai Yuanjie blocked the navy at the port.

The problem was not on his own side. Chen Mu toured around with his binoculars, and finally fixed his eyes on the south of Qishan Mountain, where Pan Gongji's left-wing garrison is located, the crossing only three to five miles away from the city of Nghe An!

In that place, it might not be a big threat to Nhe'an directly. Even if Ruan Juan went up to the battle elephant and hit the city wall of the mansion, he would not be able to break through, but it is true that he can copy Pan Gongji's back road.

At this moment, Chen Mu was very suspicious that Ruan Juan's other [-] soldiers were not staying in the valley. They might be marching towards Pan Gongji on the other side of Qishan Mountain.

"Heizi, order the Ding cavalry team to pull out a hundred cavalry and find a careful team leader to lead me to copy his lair from the north of the mountain!"

After being reminded by Juniper, Chen Mu was still immersed in the joy of watching the generals one moment ago, but the next moment Chen Mu outlined Ruan Juan's strategy in his mind, and said: "Tell Commander Zhang under the mountain to lead [-] troops from Beishan to Go west, the horse team will go first to find out the situation."

"If the valley is indeed empty, those who deserve to be killed should be killed and those who should be robbed. Ruan Juan's luggage in the outskirts of Nghe'an, which he plundered from Qinghua, is stationed there. I have not seen how many civilians he conscripted. He can do whatever rewards should be given to his subordinates. No matter how many rewards, I just want to win!"

"If there is still a large army stationed in the valley, the cavalry will send a message quickly so that my commander will come back as the army."

As soon as Chen Mu finished speaking, Juniper already knew what he wanted to do, and quickly ran down the mountain path with his fists clasped. He knew what Chen Mu's order meant.

If the valley was empty, even if Chen Mu and Pan Gongji's coalition forces outside the mountain could not defeat Ruan Juan, just a fire in the valley would scare the [-] troops back;

Chen Mu, Deng Zilong, and Lin Manjue, the three elites were at the place where he had to retreat. No matter how many soldiers he had, what would he do if he had no food?

The flags and flags of the two armies covered the air, drums and music blared the sky. After a short while, the eight cavalry generals fought to decide the winner. The four generals of Ruan Juan in the Northern Dynasty were all killed by their horses, and there were only two cavalry left under Pan Gongji in the Southern Dynasty. They rode their horses and returned to the formation In the middle, the battle was noisy and majestic.

Afterwards, Pan Gongji was the first to be unable to wait, and the wings of the squadron pressed forward, and the cavalry walked around in small steps;

Every hundred or ten steps, an archer draws his bow and shoots an arrow forward, then advances to the place where the arrow fell, shoots another arrow forward, and continues to move forward.

Facing the advance of the enemy army, Ruan Juan's side was not in a hurry. Chen Mu could see him spreading out riders galloping back and forth in front of the formation, shouting to all the ministries to hold their ground. Rows of large shields stood in front of the formation, because not the whole army Wearing armor, it is easy to see that those are the elite soldiers, and those core forces are arranged in the battle formation, and are tightly protected by the outer shields.

Chen Mu's palms were sweating, and he knew it was inevitable.

Although in the past at the source of the Wengyuan River and along the Juma River, there were always large battles involving more than [-] troops, but on the plains that can be seen at a glance, the two sides fought with [-] to [-] troops. It was the first time for him to experience a battle that would determine the outcome.

"Is this the first time you've seen such a big battle?"

Chen Mu looked at Juniper and patted Captain Ding on the shoulder as if he had come here, and said, "It's okay, did you see the left wing of Ruan Juan? There are only 5000 people, or even 5000 of the left wing out of the 1000 people. Only then can we fight with us in the first time."

He was still building up his courage, stretched his arms and pointed to the distance and said: "The soldiers on the right wing have to run three miles before attacking, and they will eat guns when they come."

No matter how relaxed his words were, his gaze on the battlefield was still cautious, and he turned his head to look behind him.

At the foot of the mountain, thousands of households, hundreds of households, small flags, flag lieutenants, and more than half of the old soldiers of each ministry were leading the new soldiers to tell each other the key to survival after the war.

He took a deep breath, and murmured: "There are hundreds of them and one officer, and I have four people and one officer. There is no way I can lose!"

"They are going to fight, go down the mountain and line up!"

Pan Gongji's army in the Southern Dynasties was not moving fast, and the formation of the three sergeants was not strict enough. They had to regroup every hundred steps before continuing to advance, but there were enough people, the morale was strong enough, and there were huge war elephants advancing slowly. , The sense of oppression in the momentum is very strong.

Even though Ruan Juan's troops were well-organized enough, they could still feel the fear of their soldiers when the battle was approaching, even if they could only look at it with binoculars at a distance of two miles before the battle started.

Pan Gongji's three formations of frontline sergeants had crossed the center of the battlefield, and they were less than a thousand steps away from Ruan Juan's troops.

On the elephant, the young gunner unleashed the cannon while the general shouted, and ten orange-sized cannonballs bombarded Ruan Juan's troops in front of him, and the sound of killing suddenly erupted from the valley west of Nghe An.

Ruan Juan attacked the elite from the front and back, and entered the battlefield led by the roaring war elephants!

　Good morning!
