Chapter 53: Iron-Armored Bull
In one day, Zhang Qing and Hua Rong traveled thousands of miles and finally arrived at Chipan River, where the Mongols stored food and fodder.
Zhang Qing and Hua Rong hid in a reed marsh and observed the situation of the enemy.
Since the terrain near the Chipan River was flat, there was no cover except for the large reed marshes by the river, so the army led by Zhang Qing and his comrades had no place to hide.
The two men discussed launching a fire attack at night.
Although the Mongols used the large reed marshes to hide themselves, it also gave Zhang Qing and Hua Rong a great opportunity.
Firstly, the reeds provided concealment while also blocking their vision. At night, as long as they got rid of the scouts, they could surround them. Secondly, it was autumn now and the grass and trees were extremely dry and easy to ignite, which was perfect for a fire attack.
After some discussion, the two men finalized the plan and each led 3,000 light cavalry to separate.
In the middle of the night, Hua Rong and Zhang Qing sneaked into the reed marsh, one on the left and one on the right.
Based on what they observed during the day, they quickly found the enemy soldiers responsible for reconnaissance.
It was midnight, the time of the day when people were the most sleepy and tired. Everyone had already fallen asleep, and even the soldiers in charge of reconnaissance began to doze off.
“Swoosh—”
A very light sound of breaking wind was heard, and the soldier was killed in one blow without even a scream.
For a moment, the flying stones and arrows worked in perfect harmony, continuously reaping the lives of the enemy soldiers, and soon all the reconnaissance soldiers were eliminated.
Then the two separated and ran quickly towards where they came from.
I saw that in a place where the enemy could not see, an army was waiting for battle.
Under the leadership of Zhang Qing and Hua Rong, the two armies sneaked into the enemy's food camp from the left and right.
Five hundred meters away, at the signal of Zhang Qing and Hua Rong, everyone held their breath and waited for the next order.
At this time, Zhang Qing put two fingers to his mouth, and a loud whistle broke through the long night.
Suddenly, six thousand light cavalry quietly took off the bows and arrows on their backs and headed straight for the Mongols' food and fodder.
The pear wood bow and the flaming arrow are both weapons made by the Mohist school, especially the flaming arrow. As long as spirituality is injected into it, the arrowhead will ignite a raging flame.
With Zhang Qing's order, thousands of rockets fell like raindrops.
For a moment, the Mongol food tents and reed marshes were set on fire.
On the periphery, Zhang Qing and Hua Rong also arranged people to set fire to the reed marshes from the outside, allowing the flames to form an encirclement, trapping the 150,000 troops in the sea of fire.
"Enemy attack"
In the central army tent, a loud shout resounded through the darkness, waking the Mongol soldiers from their sleep.
A middle-aged man wearing black armor and holding a black spear came out of the tent. He looked at the flames spreading around him with his eyes wide open.
At this time, the food and forage camp was in chaos. Soldiers came out of the tents one after another, and some tents were even on fire.
In the panic, a rain of flaming arrows fell again.
"what"
Screams pierced the darkness, and some soldiers who came out of the tents were killed by the rain of arrows.
"Help! The enemy is coming."
"It's on fire, run!"
"Be careful of the rain of arrows. I don't want to die yet."
At this time, the wailing, cries for help, shouts, all the sounds made the entire battlefield chaotic, and some soldiers were even trampled.
Ma Yuan shot down the oncoming rocket and shouted, "Everyone calm down, don't panic, Deputy General, quickly command the people to put out the fire first."
"Everyone, prepare to kill the enemy. Anyone who dares to flee will be killed immediately by the supervising soldiers."
Despite this, a large number of soldiers were still in panic and completely ignored Ma Yuan's command.
Five miles away, Zhang Qing and Hua Rong watched the fire spreading and continued to order arrows to be shot.
Rounds of rain of arrows fell, causing heavy casualties to the Mongol army.
During this period, a large number of deserters rushed out of the sea of fire, which was exactly what Zhang Qing and Hua Rong had expected. With a single order, their cavalry rushed forward and killed them there.
In a short time, the ground was covered with corpses.
In the circle of fire, Ma Yuan beheaded a fleeing soldier and shouted, "Everyone, calm down. Deputy commanders, quickly organize your soldiers."
At this time, a deputy general ran to Ma Yuan in a panic and said, "General, the fire is too big. The enemy has set fire to the reed marshes outside. Quickly order a retreat, otherwise the whole army will be buried in the sea of fire, General."
Ma Yuan looked at the fires on the military tents, food supplies, and reed marshes. The raging fire illuminated the darkness, and the scorching heat burned his skin.
Ma Yuan was unwilling, but still gritted his teeth and ordered a retreat.
Suddenly, the deputy general hurriedly gathered the remaining troops, and all the soldiers gathered around Ma Yuan. Under the leadership of Ma Yuan, tens of thousands of troops went directly out of the sea of fire.
Zhang Qing and Hua Rong saw that their plan had succeeded and their mission was accomplished. Seeing that tens of thousands of Mongol troops were about to rush out of the sea of fire, in order to avoid heavy casualties in the battle between the two armies, they directly ordered the entire army to retreat.
You know, the two of them have only 6,000 light cavalry under their command. It is an unwise choice to fight with the enemy who are desperately rushing out of the sea of fire in order to gain more credit.
Therefore, the two of them ordered a withdrawal, leaving the tens of thousands of remaining troops to be dealt with by King Anyang and his men.
Now that the enemy's food supplies have been burned, the goal has been achieved.
Six thousand light cavalry gathered together and hid in the vast night.
Chu Mo, who was far away in the Giant Forest, felt the changes in the Yin-Yang Diagram in his sea of consciousness, and a smile appeared on his face.
A large amount of military spirituality was transmitted into the Yin-Yang Map, and Chu Mo knew that Zhang Qing and the other two had already made great contributions on the battlefield.
Of course, it also includes Confucian spirituality, Mohist spirituality, etc., but the number of people is small, just enough to make one or two leather puppets.
Not far from Chu Mo, Yang Jiye killed a forest poisonous anaconda with one sword, and Yan Yonghe skillfully dissected the corpse of the monster and collected valuable spiritual objects.
Yan Yonghe, a medical practitioner, seemed to enjoy the study of anatomy and spiritual creatures and took the initiative to take on this task.
After a while, Yan Yonghe sorted out a bottle of blood, a snake skin, snake eyes, snake gallbladder and fangs, and put them into the storage bag with a smile.
As a result, Chu Mo had some free time.
Yang Jiye came to Chu Mo and said, "My Lord, we are still some distance away from the location of the Jade Bamboo. I will go and find out first. You and Doctor Yan can rest here first."
After saying that, he ran nimbly towards the depths of the forest.
Yan Yonghe came to Chu Mo with a smile on his face and said, "My lord, I didn't expect that this forest anaconda would actually guard a plague grass. This is really a good opportunity."
Hearing this, Chu Mo was a little confused.
Seeing this, Yan Yonghe could not help but explain: "My lord, this forest anaconda will often absorb the miasma in the forest to increase its toxicity, but once it absorbs too much miasma, it will be poisoned, so it needs to rely on the plague grass to detoxify."
Chu Mo was immediately amused when he heard this, and said softly, "Everything is interdependent and mutually exclusive, this is magical."
Yan Yonghe smiled and said, "That's right. This is also the reason why my family of doctors make medicine and make pills. It is said that there are always antidotes for highly toxic substances near them. This is not without reason."
While the two were chatting, Yang Jiye came back with an excited look on his face and said happily: "My lord, haha, good news, I found a group of armored bulls not far away, and there are nearly a hundred of them."
Chu Mo was very happy when he heard this. You know, the skin of the Iron-Armored Bull is as hard as iron armor and extremely tough. It is difficult for ordinary weapons to break their defense. It is the best choice for making leather dolls.
