Northern Song Dynasty Revitalization Strategy

Chapter 604 The Cruelty of War

"Wanyan Zongbi's Hezha army has already run away! I saw it with my own eyes! It can be fake! This iron mountain in Benxi is empty! There is no defense at all! You don't have to be so cautious!" Wen Ying looked at Chen who was proceeding cautiously. Xing, said a little puzzled.

This is not trusting her detection ability!
But Chen Xing still had a knife in his hand, and walked forward carefully, carefully inspecting potholes and houses one after another, and only went up the mountain after confirming that there were no potential safety hazards.

During the whole night, the soldiers led by Chen Xing walked from the bottom of the mountain to the halfway up the mountain.

"The Changbai Mountains are the ancestral land of the Jin people. Although Benxi has not entered the depths of the Changbai Mountains, there is a possibility of danger. Any slightest relaxation may cause the loss of soldiers." Chen Xing squatted and carefully checked the bonfire. In order to confirm the safety of the place, he entered the room and opened the bed.

Excessive caution is the biggest characteristic of Chen Xing. He is never willing to make any mistakes. He is willing to investigate for half a year before attacking a small Zhushan with 1000 people.

Chen Xing painted a red '×' on the outside of this residence, clapped his hands and said: "The Yanjing army is not the orphans of us Jiesheng army. We are willing to do anything for revenge, even if it is It is not hesitating to eat snow and gnaw tree bark."

"But the Yanjing army is a new army. Their parents are still alive, and some even have families. If I am not cautious enough and they are inexperienced, who will be responsible for their lives? Who will be responsible for their families?"

"Every soldier who dies is the sorrow of a family."

After receiving reports from the officers of the battalions, Chen Xing personally checked the signs on the door before leaving the village halfway up the mountain and heading for the depths of Iron Mountain.

Chen Xing patrolled around and dispatched several teams of scouts to search the mountains.

"Although it is said that in war, there will inevitably be casualties, but it can be avoided or avoided. The purpose of the officials to arrange us Jiesheng veterans to serve as officers in the Yanjing Army, Hejian Army, and Shanhai Navy, isn't that the case?"

Chen Xing unfolded the binoculars in his hand and carefully looked at the fire in the distance. There was deep in the mine. When Yan Zongbi left, he burned everything that could be burned.

And ignited the mountain fire to stop Chen Xing's pursuit.

"But kindness doesn't command soldiers, and love doesn't stand up. After watching Yan Zongbi, you burned the mountain to stop you." Wen Ying looked at Chen Xing's face a little obsessively. Although this man loves to smile, but How deep is the scar deep in his heart?
Chen Xing suddenly said with a smile on his face: "Thickness can't be used, love can't be ordered, chaos can't be cured, like a proud son, you can't be used."

"This is the content of being kind and not holding soldiers. It's not that you can't have a heart of benevolence, but that you shouldn't be too kind."

"If you are not strict when you are strict, if you are kind and soft, if you are tolerant, and if you are lenient, you will not be able to issue military orders, command soldiers, and manage military discipline. Of course, you will not be able to command troops."

"Compassion does not hold soldiers and love soldiers like sons is not in conflict."

Wen Ying frowned and asked, "Where did you learn these words? Didn't you say you don't like reading?"

"I learned it in the literacy class." Chen Xing explained: "I don't like those fancy and useless moral articles, military books and other principles. I still like to learn."

Wen Ying looked at Chen Xing's cautious approach, and was very curious about what was taught in the official literacy class!
"You seem very utilitarian like this, no matter what, knowledge is right." Wen Ying gritted her silver teeth and said.

Chen Xing looked up at the sky, and a group of birds flew past chirping under the moonlight.

"Enemy attack!"

Chen Xing roared loudly, and the decisive victory chariot quickly stopped at the periphery, and the sound of the machine being wound up was endless, like the sound of termites gnawing on trees, resounding through the forest.

Many generals held their breath and stared intently at a soldier of the Song Dynasty lying on his horse's back in the dark forest, his body full of arrows.

This is a scout, if it wasn't for the bad horse to recognize the master, he might not be able to run back to the Song Dynasty's army.

"More than [-] cavalry, about [-] heavy cavalry, in the southwest direction, within a thousand steps." The cavalry rolled over and rolled to the ground, panting heavily.

"Medical team! Take the stretcher away!" Chen Xing asked the medical team to take away the wounded.

He put on the pocket and the mask himself, and said to Wen Ying in a low voice, "You go to the medical team to help, if something goes wrong, evacuate immediately."

The [-] cavalrymen were probably just the vanguard, and there might be golden soldiers arriving later. If they were unable to catch up, it was customary for the medical team to retreat first.

Chen Xing clenched the steel spear in his hand, and chased him down. It was Song Dynasty who rarely had a battle plan. Of course, Chen Xing had expected it before being counterattacked by the Jin people, so he was so careful.

The formation of chariots is extremely tight, and the enemy must have more than [-] riders, otherwise they cannot be defeated head-on.

When Chen Xing's nervousness followed the appearance of the first golden man, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This is the rout.

In a panic, there were no scouts, no temptations, and just hit the decisive chariot.

This is a military achievement that fell from the sky!

While Chen Xing commanded the soldiers to shoot arrows, he opened up the chariot formation of the rear army, and the cavalry slowly came out from the rear army, encircling the 300-odd people.

The forest is a place where it is easy for people to get lost. This kind of thing will happen if they can't distinguish the direction.

He was clearly running away, but he encountered the pursuing enemy army head-on.

"Send three scout teams to continue patrolling." While Chen Xing ate up the more than 300 people, he did not forget to continue to send out scouts to investigate the surrounding situation.

The battle was not intense. The Jinren who had fled for a day and night were defeated. When they saw Song's decisive chariot, they fell into madness.

Obviously, their madness has no effect. Good military discipline and military formation are the guarantee of combat effectiveness.

The golden soldiers who lost their sanity and formation were not even as powerful as thirteen hundred wild boars.

If there were [-] wild boars in the formation, Chen Xing would have to kill them until dawn.

It's a pity that these golden men, who were in constant panic all day long, turned into ghosts under the rain of arrows.

"Clean up the battlefield."

Chen Xing ordered the soldiers to pile up the corpses into a Jingguan more than four feet high, and patted it with soil.

The purpose of doing this is to deter and prevent plagues at the same time.

From then on, Benxi Tieshan will become the Great Song Tieshan. Naturally, the plague cannot be allowed to break out here. Every place where the plague breaks out, the legend of the plague god, will become a forbidden place in the hearts of the people.

Sickness means heavy medical bills, and no one wants to risk their lives.

Chen Xing finished cleaning the battlefield, looked at the mountain fire in the distance, and couldn't help sighing, this is not the first time that the golden man has cut off his limbs.

The mountains were their best hiding place, and the golden men ambush in the mountains left a deep impression on Chen Xing.

Now it was completely burned by Wanyan Zongbi.

It is not the first time that I have destroyed my greatest advantage.

Chen Xing walked to the medical team, and there were hundreds of people lying here.

The fighting power of the Jin people is still very strong, especially the battle of trapped beasts, which also taught the Yanjing new army of the Song Dynasty a lesson, why the Jin people are now the kings in the north.

Chen Xing carefully inspected the severely wounded battalion. Most of the soldiers here are already dying.

When Chen Xing walked out of the wounded barracks, he tried hard not to look back, because it would make him weak.

Wen Ying wiped the blood on Chen Xing's forehead for Chen Xing, and after confirming that it was the blood of the enemy, he comforted him and said, "Golden people die more. Humans are mortal, and it is heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather. The divergence is also."

"Die for his country, his family lived for him."

Chen Xing nodded, he had naturally heard this sentence, and said with a forced smile: "You told me that knowledge is right, but Mr. Xixi from the literacy class told us that we are useless and are scholars."

"They have taken the imperial examination for many years, but because their understanding of the classics is different from the courtiers who set the questions and judged the papers, there are many people who fail."

"That's why they believe in the official saying: Theory is just a hypothetical summary of the results of actions. It is a tool, and its value depends on whether it can make the action successful. Action is better than dogma, and experience is better than rigidity."

Wen Ying became even more curious about the literacy class, what exactly did the officials let those teachers learn to write.

Chen Xing looked at Wen Ying's puzzled expression, and explained: "The officials say this is a result-only pragmatism, which is rather extreme, but it is very suitable for our army."

Wen Ying still can't understand, but the word practical is easy to understand.

"There are more than 100 people in the wounded battalion with minor injuries, and more than 200 people in the seriously injured battalion. The minor injuries are treated properly, but for the more than 200 people with serious injuries, only less than ten people can be saved." Wen Ying opened the notebook in his hand, frowned. Said to Chen Xing with a frown.

Chen Xing rubbed his shoulders vigorously: "370 Jinren died. This is a big victory!"

"Also give me the list of those fake wounded who pretended to be minor injuries and came to hook up with the female nurses of the medical team. Aren't they minor injuries? Then let them eat two whips to really become minor injuries and be admitted to the medical team. Team!"

Wen Ying smiled and shook her head. After Hu Yuan's suggestion, the medical team has trained many ingenious female nurses.

After serving in the army for three years, the sow has become a handsome soldier. What he likes most is to go to the medical team when he has nothing to do.

It took Chen Xing three days to wipe out the remaining enemies of the Jin people in Tieshan, Benxi.

A heavy rain extinguished the mountain fire set by Yan Zongbi. Chen Xing ran towards Anshan in the slightly fresh air after the rain, leaving the thousand-man team on guard.

The conditions in Anshan and Benxi Tieshan are not too different. There are traces of fire everywhere, and occasionally a wild boar cooked by the fire can be picked up.

Wen Ying looked at the wild boar and said: "According to information, there are many wild boars in Changbai Mountain. The wild boar's skin is thick and hairy, dense and tough. The Jin people like to make wild boar skin into clothes, leather armor or armor lining to keep out the cold. This pig is cooked, and the pig skin is useless."

"That's why they nicknamed it Wild Boar Skin? Is that so?" Chen Xing asked curiously.

　Thanks to "another novice" for the reward, thank you for your support.
