Chapter 445: One Hit, One Kill
Chapter 445: One Hit, One Kill
If a large army is dispatched, it will be impossible to force the Tartars into a decisive battle.
So, after much thought, I decided to ask Lin Feng for help.
The key point is that the canal construction projects in Hongqing Lake and Zhenxi have been affected by the Tartars.
If no resistance was offered, the Tartar cavalry would extend to the Hongqing Lake area.
This is also the reason why Lin Feng had to help himself.
Soon, a letter full of heartfelt feelings and sincerity was written.
Li Jiping immediately sent someone to deliver it urgently.
Lin Feng was inspecting the engineers repairing the city of Dadur.
He has already included this city in the territory of Dazong.
This place is located on a plain, backed by a lake, with abundant water and grass, making it a good place to raise horses.
It can be used as a horse breeding base.
Because war horses consume a lot of energy, many of them are often lost in a battle.
Lin Feng began to think about how to strengthen the buildings here and use it as the first line of defense for Zhenxi and Tiezhen.
The buildings in my previous life were all made of reinforced concrete, and were much stronger than the ones now.
But I just can't remember how cement was made.
Lin Feng only remembered that cement was made of limestone, clay and iron ore powder. As for what else was added, he didn't know.
However, it is not easy to grind the above materials into powder.
This will take time and experimentation to come to a conclusion.
Mainly, they dig the canals themselves, and they also need this kind of stable material as the foundation of the building.
Lin Feng knew that there were iron mines and many stones in the territory of Western Xia.
Should we take this opportunity to get some materials from Yinzhou?
While Lin Feng was thinking about this, he received an urgent letter from Li Jiping.
After reading the urgent letter, Lin Feng smiled.
Isn’t this an opportunity given by God? If I refuse, how can I be worthy of God’s care?
As for the problem of nearly four thousand Tartars in Yinzhou, it is not a problem at all for Lin Feng.
I'm just about to go to Hongqing Lake to see how the canal project is going.
Then take this opportunity to visit various places in Yinzhou and collect some useful materials.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng immediately gave orders.
Hu Jincai led 3,000 light cavalry to garrison Dadur City, and Xie Zhong's chariot battalion assisted in the defense.
The catapult troops led by Xi Niang are Lin Feng's secret weapon and usually do not appear in front of the public.
This time when he left, Lin Feng also left her behind to assist Hu Jincai in defending the city.
There are still two thousand engineers left in the city to continue strengthening the city's defense facilities.
He led Li Donglai, Lin Qiaomei, and Chu Jiao's heavy armored battalion, and escorted all the captives to Yinzhou, Western Xia.
Because Nalan was more familiar with the local area, he left her in Dadur.
Before leaving, Lin Feng called Hu Jincai aside.
"Old Hu, this Nalan stays here. Please keep an eye on her. If she's not causing any harm, you can let her do whatever she wants."
Hu Jincai blinked his eyes and said, "Boss, what if there is any danger?"
"You can deal with any behavior that endangers our Qingshui Army at your own discretion."
Lin Feng said in a deep voice.
Hu Jincai thought for a moment and said, "Boss, this woman is very powerful. I'm afraid I can't handle her."
"You don't need to control her. Just let her do whatever she wants. A woman like her can't cause much trouble here."
"Boss, all we need to do is pay attention, right?"
Lin Feng patted Hu Jincai on the shoulder.
"Well, I really admire your cleverness. Just go for it."
"Thank you for the compliment, Boss. I understand. I promise to take good care of it for you."
Lin Feng frowned and looked at his wretched face.
"I just praised you for being smart, what the hell are you thinking about?"
"No, Boss, you guys are normal."
Hu Jincai spread out his hands with an innocent look on his face.
Lin Feng pointed at him with his finger: "You...you kid, don't have any wrong ideas."
"Boss, I am upright."
Lin Feng waved his hands helplessly: "Get lost, get away from me."
"Okay, Boss, have a safe trip."
Hu Jincai bowed and sang in greeting.
Lin Feng led a group of people and horses, heading southwest. Including people, war horses and carriages, the team was several miles long.
On the wall of Dadur, Nalan stood high up and watched the departing team quietly.
Only after everyone disappeared from his sight did he sigh with loss and turn to walk down the city wall.
Dadul City is not far from Xixia Yinzhou, only three or four hundred miles away.
But the road was difficult to travel on. After passing the flat grassland, there were more and more hills and ridges.
In many places, it is difficult for horse-drawn carriages to pass through.
The carriages carried a lot of supplies and heavy armor and equipment, which were the main weapons to defeat the Tatars, so they naturally could not be discarded.
So, Lin Feng decided to take a detour.
Even if we move slowly, we must ensure that we can defeat the Tatar cavalry after entering Western Xia.
The journey was supposed to take two days, but after taking a detour, it was already noon on the fourth day when we arrived in the territory of Western Xia.
They were like cutting off the Tatars' retreat, and as soon as they entered the border of Western Xia, they were discovered by the Tatar cavalry.
Report back to Nuxilie's tent quickly.
The silver-armored woman Xilie was waiting for news from her boss when she suddenly heard that a large number of Qingshui troops had entered Xixia. It was like a bucket of cold water poured on her head.
He quickly lay down on the map and carefully searched for the location of the Qingshui Army.
The Qingshui Army did come from the direction of Dadur City in Tiezhen.
Could it be that his boss was defeated?
How can this be?
In the Tiezhen Royal Team, everyone from generals to soldiers is extremely confident.
Their cavalry is the most powerful force in the world, and no team can defeat it.
Especially the battle we just won where we defeated the enemy with fewer troops.
All the soldiers were in high spirits and full of pride.
Nu Xilie urgently summoned several bronze-armored leaders to analyze this strange situation together.
After urgent consultations among several leaders, they all agreed that their boss, Wanyan Nahe, could not fail.
This Qingshui Army team must have come from somewhere else via a detour.
Or, they were defeated soldiers who were defeated by their own boss and fled into the territory of Western Xia.
Nu Xilie immediately decided to take advantage of the Qingshui army's unstable foothold and launch a heavy attack on them.
Lin Feng's team came out of the mountains and finally arrived at a relatively flat wilderness.
This is the area where the Tatars invaded Western Xia, and no one knows where the enemy is hiding.
Lin Feng immediately ordered Wei Bao's cavalry to set out and conduct reconnaissance within a range of one hundred miles.
The main force found a gentle slope and set up camp.
Lin Feng’s principle is that when confronting the enemy in the wilderness, it is best to go downhill against uphill.
Regardless of whether there are chariots or not, the heavy armored battalion does not move fast, and its advantage in going downhill is obvious.
We had just started cooking, and before it was even done, a ranger came to report.
One hundred and fifty miles away, a Tatar cavalry of more than three thousand horses was discovered.
Lin Feng frowned and pondered.
The Tartars came so quickly?
More than three thousand cavalry?
According to Wanyan Nahe and Pei Man, they still had 5,000 cavalry troops in the territory of Western Xia.
It is estimated that the entire army was mobilized in order to kill the enemy with one strike.
