Chapter 339: 1 Head 12 Silver
Shen Zhongying smiled complacently: "I don't know where Lin Feng is now. Why don't we lead our troops to attack the vital points directly, so as to avoid conquering each city one by one, which would be time-consuming and laborious."
Song Yi nodded. The leader of the Black Scarf Army was the most unreliable.
It’s no wonder these guys are so arrogant, the root cause lies with this person.
I wonder what they have to be proud of?
Even Cui Yong, whose mind was elsewhere, could see that these people were not from military backgrounds.
I'm afraid they are some wandering knights who were recruited by the Black Scarf Society.
Shen Zhongying's deputy general Peng Liang bowed at this time.
"Generals, I believe you have fought against the Qingshui Army before. Can you tell me about its strengths and weaknesses?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Cui Yong and others felt a little relieved.
Song Yi also breathed a sigh of relief.
Not all the Black Scarf Army members are fools.
Cui Yong had no intention of paying attention to them, and He Zhiwu had never fought with Lin Feng.
Only Song Yi had several direct or indirect encounters with the Qingshui Army.
"General, General Shen, and all the generals, I have indeed fought against the Qingshui Army many times, but I have lost more than I have won."
He couldn't be too honest. How could he be honest when others were so good at bragging?
"The Qingshui Army has three characteristics: first, fast movement speed, second, sharp crossbows, and third, strong impact force."
Song Yi finished speaking briefly, then shut up and stayed quiet.
Peng Liang asked in surprise, "That's it, nothing more?"
"Oh, there's another very important point. Their weapons are so sharp that ordinary weapons can't withstand them."
Song Yi quickly added.
Peng Liang frowned and thought.
Pang Lian waved his hand and said, "These are not problems. No matter how strong their attack is, they pose no threat to us. Just come at us."
Xuan Hewu sneered, "So what if the weapon is sharp? Can it break our magical skills?"
Song Yi stared in surprise and looked carefully at the dark and thin man.
I was very confused.
Are these men really invulnerable to swords and guns?
It was said that the meeting was to discuss the battle to attack Weiyuan County, but in fact it was a decision made by Shen Zhongying himself.
Finally, he made the final decision, leaving behind 20,000 Black Scarf Army soldiers and sending out the remaining 50,000 troops.
Early the next morning, a black statue was placed on a huge carriage.
If Lin Feng were here, he would be able to see that this statue looked the same as the one in Liang Jincai's grocery store.
It's just magnified several times.
Shen Zhongying led the entire battle team, bowed his head in front of the statue and silently recited something.
Half a minute later, Shen Zhongying jumped on his horse and waved his hand.
"Boys, let's go!"
The 50,000-strong army began to move with a roar, and a vast black tide flowed along the official road.
The momentum was amazing.
The closest county seat to the provincial capital is Weiyuan. Although there are several towns and countless villages in between, they are all uninhabited.
The Black Turban Army consisted of 50,000 men, one-third of whom were cavalry and two-thirds were infantry.
This is the best result of Su Qian and Shen Zhongying's efforts.
Even if more war horses were mobilized from all over, it would be impossible to get more.
This number of cavalry was made up by borrowing war horses from the provincial army and border troops.
Food and fodder were also urgently collected, causing the three county towns southeast of the city to groan in pain as they were almost completely looted.
The movements of the Black Scarf Army in the city were already under Wei Bao's control. As soon as they moved, Lin Feng got the news.
Lin Feng’s idea was to prevent the Black Scarf Army from disturbing the farmland in his area.
Therefore, we do not plan to engage in a defensive battle with the Black Scarf Army.
Lin Feng mobilized 20,000 troops from various county camps and chose to fight the Black Turban Army in the wilderness.
All forty tanks were pulled to the front line.
They divided into three directions, each choosing a favorable terrain, waiting for the arrival of the Black Scarf Army.
The main general who faced the enemy head-on this time was Wang Qian. He led 8,000 cavalry and was stuck on the only way from the city to Weiyuan.
Hu Jincai and Li Donglai each led 5,000 cavalrymen to wait for the enemy on the left and right wings.
Lin Qiaomei led three thousand long-range attack troops, chose advantageous positions, and inflicted effective damage to the enemy.
Lin Feng had already warned Wang Qian and others that they must effectively utilize the destructive power of chariots and long-range attacks and not to charge headfirst.
Although the Black Scarf Army's combat effectiveness is not great, there will always be casualties in any war.
Be sure to minimize your own damage.
Given that the Black Turban Army was poorly equipped and most of them were infantry, the Heavy Armored Battalion did not participate in this battle.
Lin Feng felt that it was of no use at all.
Twenty thousand versus fifty thousand, it seems that Lin Feng is a little too arrogant.
In fact, Wei Bao's intelligence forces had already infiltrated the city.
According to intelligence, several generals of the Black Turban Army did not come from orthodox military backgrounds.
The Black Scarf Army was not composed of soldiers who had experienced war.
Their identities are so confusing that it is impossible to describe them in detail.
Therefore, Lin Feng judged that the combat effectiveness of these black scarf troops should be worse than that of the government troops.
It can't be compared with his own iron-blooded water army at all.
The main enemy of the Qingshui Army is still the Tatar cavalry, so they cannot mobilize too many troops to prevent the border towns and Lingdouzi Castle from being too empty.
Wang Qian and the other three troops waited at the same place for two days, and finally a cavalry came to report.
The 50,000-strong Black Scarf Army has already entered within a hundred miles.
Wang Qian's idea was to advance his troops further and deal a direct blow to the Black Turban Army.
Fortunately, Xie Chong tried hard to keep him.
Xie Zhong's chariot can only perform best in such a sloped place.
If he charged forward with the king, his chariot became a means of loading spoils.
Finally, Xie Zhong cited Lin Feng's order to calm Wang Qian down.
It was past noon, and a dark mass of people appeared in the wilderness in the distance.
Fifty thousand troops spread out in the boundless wilderness, visually, give people a heavy sense of oppression.
Especially the one with black as the main color and densely packed.
Lin Qiaomei suffered from trypophobia again and felt very sad.
In this team, the three brothers Tao Jinwang officially joined the Qingshui Corps after several rounds of assessments.
The three brothers happened to be assigned to the same team and immediately went to the wilderness.
They stayed in the border army camp for several years and hardly participated in any decent battles.
This was the first time we faced the enemy head-on.
The three of them looked into the distance and saw the large group of black figures, and their hearts began to tremble.
Tao Jinwang licked his dry lips and spoke in a low voice.
"Oh my God, there are so many people!"
Tao Dazhuang said in a humming voice: "Brother, we are going to fail here this time."
Tao Erhu scolded, "Bullshit! Who are we? We are the Qingshui Army. Have we ever been defeated?"
Tao Erhu's fingers turned white as he gripped the knife handle due to nervousness.
"Erhu, don't be nervous. In Zhenxi, only the Qingshui Army can bully others. Don't worry."
Tao Jinwang sniffed and said through gritted teeth.
Tao Erhu held his breath and said, "You should talk to Dazhuang. I'm not nervous."
"Da Zhuang is much more relaxed than you. Look how scared you are."
"Bullshit, I'm not scared."
Tao Jinwang chuckled and said, "Have you read the regulations? One head can be exchanged for one ounce of silver. How many heads do you two plan to chop off?"
Tao Dazhuang immediately widened his eyes and stared ahead.
"Oh my god, so many heads..."
Tao Erhu took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's compete to see who earns more money."
Just as Tao Jinwang was about to say a few words of praise, he heard Jiazheng shouting.
"Shut up and listen carefully to the orders."
The three of them quickly shut their mouths and pricked up their ears, waiting for orders.
