Huang Guangmao and Wang Jida have been watching the large-scale attack of the Ming army just now.

The more they looked at it, the more they frowned.

"These bandits are difficult to deal with!" Huang Guangmao seemed to be saying this to himself, but he was actually saying this to Wang Jida who was standing next to him.

Although the previous attack failed, which made Huang Guangmao very sad for the loss of twenty soldiers, what Huang Guangmao is now more afraid of is that Wang Jida will continue to let him attack forcefully regardless of the situation.

If he really does this, his soldiers will suffer a lot of casualties.

However, what surprised Huang Guangmao was that Wang Jida did not rush to urge Huang Guangmao to launch the next round of attack.

Wang Jida is not a fool. He almost forced Huang Guangmao to attack before. Although he did not care about the lives of his soldiers, he also believed that although the thieves on the opposite side were not simple, there was a high possibility that they were old thieves. However,

He firmly believed that as long as his own officers and soldiers rushed forward, even the elite thieves on the other side would not be able to resist him.

After all, what Wang Jida wants is victory, even if it is just a tragic victory.

But he doesn't want to see his own side defeated.

Of course he won't be held responsible if he loses, but the credit will be gone, which is also a big loss.

The large-scale attack arranged by Huang Guangmao before could be regarded as a general attack, with at least 400 county braves and a hundred or so soldiers invested.

They launched an attack from three directions at the same time, and finally on the left hillside, even after the county warriors were killed and wounded, the soldiers still launched an attack, and finally lost a third of their power before being defeated.

Even though Wang Jida didn't know much about military affairs, he still knew that Huang Guangmao did not deliberately neglect the war.

However, without deliberately neglecting the fight, he still suffered heavy losses and could not win. Then Wang Jida had to consider that the bandits in front of him were indeed difficult to bite.

After many considerations went through his mind, Wang Jida frowned slightly and said: "These bandits are indeed unusual."

He doesn't know much about military affairs, but he has seen quite a few thief armies. Not long ago, he personally experienced an ambush of the thief troops belonging to the Sky-trading Tiger. He can tell how strong or weak the thief army is.

"Huang Dusi, in your opinion, how can we knock down this Songshan Mountain?"

After hearing this, Huang Guangmao left the store and burst into tears...

Damn it, you finally remembered that I am a professional in fighting, so you thought of asking me for my opinion instead of directly forcing me to launch a strong attack.

Huang Guangmao, who felt a lot in his heart, said: "The Songshan bandits are well-defended. They not only have artillery support, but also a large number of archers. If we continue to attack head-on, we may not be able to do it."

"The only plan for now is to postpone the frontal attack. I am going to send people to take a detour to see if we can find other trails into the mountain. As long as we find other trails and then take a detour to fight in, we can make them suffer from enemies from both sides!"

"When the time comes, none of them can escape."

Huang Guangmao still remembered what Wang Jida was most concerned about. This man just wanted the heads of the Songshan bandits on the opposite side. It was impossible for him to be satisfied by simply repelling the bandits on the opposite side.

But if you can double-team the opposing thief army from front to back, you will most likely be able to keep most of the thief soldiers behind, and in this way you will be able to obtain a large number of stray thief heads.

Sure enough, after Wang Jida heard this, his frown relaxed.

"That's what Huang Dusi said."

Huang Guangmao is naturally happy that Wang Jida behaves like this.

As long as Wang Jida does not interfere with his command of the battle, Huang Guangmao is willing to act submissive, and will even take as many thieves' heads as possible to Wang Jida as capital for promotion.

No matter what, the Wang Jida in front of me is a respected scholar in the county, and he may be able to continue to be promoted in the future.

Unless absolutely necessary, such people will try not to offend them if they can, but instead try to please them.

Without Wang Jida's interference, Huang Guangmao also showed the basic qualities of a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

They also asked people to arrange a second round of strong attacks. Instead, they sent people to cut trees in the surrounding areas to prepare for the deployment of camps. At the same time, they sent people into the mountains from both sides to search for possible paths into the mountains.

During this period, he also commanded the Ming army to launch a small counterattack.

That is to say, Luo Zhixue ordered Lin Dongsheng to try to snatch back the three artillery pieces left by the Ming army on the battlefield. After Huang Guangmao noticed this situation, he decisively arranged for the archers to rush forward quickly, and they were still outside the artillery range of Baoxiang Camp.

Projectile attack.

The right army led by Lin Dongsheng personally suffered five or six casualties, and failed to bring back the three artillery pieces. In desperation, they could only urgently destroy the artillery cart carrying the three hundred-pound cannons, and let the three

The artillery carriage fell apart.

Now, no one can take these three artillery pieces back and use them under the threat of long-range firepower from the opponent.

Except for this small-scale battle, there were no new battles between the two sides that day.

It was not until evening that Luo Zhixue received a report from the sentry, saying that there were many small-scale enemy troops heading to both sides, apparently wanting to search for other ways into the mountain.

"It seems that these Ming soldiers are not giving up!" After Luo Zhixue learned of this situation, he immediately called Wang Xiazi: "You arrange for a small team to go over and hunt down these Ming soldiers one by one."

Seeing that the frontal attack was unsuccessful, the enemy wanted to take a detour. This was also within Luo Zhixue's previous prediction.

In fact, several surrounding roads suitable for small-scale enemies to enter the mountains are already under their control, and checkpoints have been set up in some important places.

It will not be much easier for the enemy's small-scale troops to fight through these places than a frontal attack. As for large-scale troops, it is impossible.

There are high mountains and dense forests on both sides. Small-scale enemies can still walk, but hundreds or thousands of armies cannot use these roads.

As a result, in the next few days, Wang Xiazi arranged multiple groups of elite teams to hunt down the Ming army's small-scale troops entering the mountains one by one.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

On the third day, Wang Xiazi personally led a team to ambush a group of more than 20 Ming soldiers, killing and wounding more than ten Ming soldiers on the spot during the ambush.

After several small-scale battles, the Ming army still failed to find a suitable trail into the mountains. However, the sentinels sent out were ambushed many times, resulting in heavy casualties.

"In the past few days, more than 30 people have been killed and injured. The casualties are already more than the frontal attack on the first day."

Huang Guangmao's confidant said with a worried look on his face: "Now the enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear, so much so that they frequently ambush our people, Du Si, we cannot continue like this."

Listening to his confidant's words, Huang Guangmao was also helpless.

The bandits in front were more difficult to fight than expected. Even though the frontal defense line was strong, there were still a large number of elite soldiers to ambush the small team he sent out to try to take a detour into the mountain.

And whether it is from the strong attack on the first day or from the small-scale battles in the following days, whether it is an ambush with bows and arrows or close combat, the fighting methods are all serious officers and soldiers, not to mention playing.

Even smoother than these officers and soldiers.

For example, when Wang Xiazi personally led a team to ambush the Ming army's team entering the mountains, they used a serious mandarin duck formation in close combat. On the contrary, the officers and soldiers panicked when they were approached and fought in a disorganized manner.

This resulted in heavy casualties.

People who didn’t know this looked at it and thought they were officers and soldiers beating up the thieves... The people on the opposite side were officers and soldiers...

"Damn it, where did these thieves come from?" Huang Guangmao was in a very unhappy mood now, and he was even more confused.

He has seen many bandits, but he has never seen such an elite bandit who can use various tactics and tactics more smoothly than the officers and soldiers...

He had no idea that the core of this group of thieves in Songshan were more than sixty Yulin frontier cavalry.

These Yulin frontier cavalry were considered first-class elites in the Ming army's combat order, and their combat effectiveness was much stronger than that of the battalion sentries in the hinterland like Huang Guangmao.

Later, even if they mutinied and became rebels, and now they are entrenched in Funiu Mountain, these people actually still retain the same things as the frontier army at that time, not only the original cavalry of more than 60 people from the frontier army, but also with them

The mountain soldiers recruited later will also be trained and fight according to this set of things.

After all, Sun Chengli, Wang Xiazi, Lin Dongsheng, Wang Dazhuang, Xu He and others were originally from the Yulin frontier army. Whether they were fighting or training, they could only play the tricks of officers and soldiers.

If you really let them play serious thieves, they still don't know how to...

And after they settled in Sanshui Village in Funiu Mountain, because food was relatively abundant and Luo Zhixue paid more attention to physical fitness, formation and other daily training, the overall training intensity of Baoxiang Camp was actually higher than that of the border army.

In this way, the scene that Huang Guangmao saw appeared.

I always feel like I’m not fighting like a bandit...

And he once thought that the people he was fighting against were not some thieves, but officers and soldiers, and they were also the elite among the officers and soldiers...

Although he was helpless and puzzled, Huang Guangmao had no other good solution but to suspend the dispatch of the team and take a detour.

The bandit's team is more elite than our own, and the enemy is in the dark, so we continue to send the team to try to take a detour into the mountains, just to continue delivering food.

If you don't send a small team to try to make a detour, and don't fight head-on, but just stay in the camp every day, Wang Jida will have a problem.

Since the failure of the first general attack, Wang Jida kept silent for several days in a row and did not question Huang Guangmao's troop formation at all, let alone object.

Wang Jida originally thought that after Huang Guangmao used this series of tricks, it would not take long for him to cut off the enemy's retreat and outflank the rebels.

But I didn't expect that three days had passed. Not only had they not succeeded in detouring, but they had also killed and injured twenty or thirty people.

The most important thing is that Huang Guangmao stopped all actions and stayed in the camp.

In Wang Jida's view, it doesn't matter how you fight, you have to fight anyway, how can you just cower in the camp without doing anything?
