Chapter 639: A Thousand Miles of Battlefields, Thousands of Miles of Blood, Red Sea Drift (5)
On the quiet night of the Gobi Desert, you can occasionally hear the bonfire bursting sound in the biting cold wind. As the night darkens, the continuous bonfires gradually turn into afterglow. Everyone curls in their fur coats and waits for the sky to brighten. Looking forward to tomorrow as a good day with bright sunshine. At least the sunlight can make them temporarily forget the biting cold. The Mongolians and Uygurs are both nomadic peoples, and they have become accustomed to the days of suffering in the wild in their lives. Although the Gobi Desert is extremely cold, it is much better than sleeping in the snow.
A thick Mongolian soldier was awakened by a urination in the middle of the night. The small eyes on the wide round pot face were sleepy and misty. He first glanced at the bonfire that was gradually extinguished, and cursed the lazyness of the Uygur people in a low voice. He walked east, found an open space to untied his leather robe and took off his leather pants, took out the bird that had not been bathed for many years, and happily watered the earth with a sour urine. Suddenly, he was woken up by the cold wind and saw the shaking shadow not far ahead. He was shocked and was about to shout, but an arrow with a sharp wind directly sealed his throat.
The impact of this arrow was so great that it not only pierced his entire throat, but the sudden arrows blew blood to push the Mongol backwards. Before he died, the Mongol instinctively stepped back to resolve the impact of the arrow. He was tripped by a sleeping Uygur man and fell straight into the bonfire. A "bang!" sounded the remaining fires and sparks flew everywhere, awakening the Uygur man who was vigilant. At this moment, the exposed Posou Army no longer hid, raised the musket in his hand and shot at the enemy. The sudden sound of muskets in the empty night sky triggered a tsunami on the battlefield.
At this time, the Pou Nu Army, less than 20 feet in front of the enemy's bonfire, was covered with a small formation of more than ten hundred people to alternately cover and shoot. The attacking Pou Nu Army did not line up in three sections of attack like Zhu Jihu's army, who covered their attack. Instead, the Pou Nu Army used the double-layer alternating shooting tactic, which was to form dense firepower on a formation and attack the enemy's combat will at the fastest speed. Don't see that the Slave Army is the key to training the night battle subject in daily training, as long as it is not forced by the form, the Pou Nu Army does not like night battle. One disadvantage of night battle for the Pou Nu Army is that after the Pou Nu Army's muskets are fired, it will emit dazzling light but the enemy does not.
Another disadvantage is that people easily lose their sense of direction in the dark night, and they will rush to the wrong direction if they are not careful. Especially when the number of enemies is far higher than that of themselves, they are easily trapped in the enemy's siege. If they still want to escape in this case, the difficulty is no less than killing the enemy commander among millions of troops. For this reason, the attacking Pouzi Army is not very far apart from each other. Their main purpose is to create a chaotic atmosphere and let the enemies kill each other in fear. The advantage of nomadic people sleeping in garments is that they react quickly when encountering crisis. Just after the Pouzi Army fired lead bullets from the first round of the Muslim guns, the first reaction of the Uygur people and the Mongols who were frightened by the sound of the muslim guns was to face the enemy.
Although they had the courage to fight, they didn't know who led them to attack. However, the lead bullets fired from the Ponu Army's muskets did not have eyes. As long as they were bitten by the lead bullet, they would be broken at the very least, and would die at the battlefield. The Uygurs and the Mongols let out painful wails after being injured, intertwined with their panic shouts, and a noise echoed in the night sky. The Ponu Army's muskets did not stop. The harsh whistling of the lead bullets was mixed with the sound of lead bullets into the flesh, and the muffled sound of the lead bullets shot into the sand.
Many Mongolians who were still fighting wanted to control the situation and drive the Uygurs to launch a counterattack against the Pou Nu Army. Although the Pou Nu Army did not fire a torch during the night attack, the fire from the musket shooting still exposed the Pou Nu Army's position. Although the Pou Nu Army's position was so conspicuous, their opponents could not fight back. Once people panicked in the dark, they would completely lose their direction. The overly frightened Uygur people escaped around, and only a few completely confused Uygur people would rush towards the Pou Nu Army's formation.
More Uygur people escaped in the direction of no fire of muskets, so they collided with the Mongolian masters who still wanted to fight. The Mongols were never ruthless against the Uygur people. They wanted to use blood to awaken the dizzy Uygur people, and then establish a battlefield order to launch a counterattack against the Desolate Army. But the Mongols forgot that they did this very useful when the Uygur people could see it during the day. In this dark night, the Mongols wanted to oppress the Uygur people, which was much more difficult.
First of all, the Uygur people could not see their compatriots killed by the Mongols, so they thought that there were many people in front of them. The Uygur people either tried to avoid this place or broke through the obstacles desperately. Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, once said that killing people is much more difficult than killing cattle and sheep, and people will inevitably resist in desperate situations. The Uygur people took the ragged weapons sent to them by the Mongols and opened a bloody road for themselves to survive. In this way, behind the Uygur people, there was a storm of lead bullets shot from the Pou Nu Army's muskets, chasing their backs.
In front of the Uygur people, there was a temporary supervision team composed of Mongols blocking their way out. In order to give themselves a way out, the Uygur people chose to attack their master. The Uygur people thrust a spear in their hands and pierced into the heart of the Mongols. The first Mongol who died felt that his power was being lost, and Changshengtian quickly took away his soul. With the first one, there would be a second one, and if there was oppression, there would inevitably be resistance. Anyway, there was nothing in the dark night, and the chaos knew who killed whom.
When the enemy successfully attacked the night of the night, the most correct way for a qualified commander was to ignore the chaos camp, and the chaotic camp was stable and there was no chaos camp, so that the enemy would not have the chance to expand the results of the battle. The Mongolian Khan King Borjiha was such a qualified commander. At the first time when the night attack of the Pou Nu Army was successful, Borjiha did not blindly order a counterattack. He looked at the battlefield on Baiyanshi Mountain, looked at the light of the muskets that appeared in the west, and immediately accurately judged the direction of the Pou Nu Army's main attack.
From the fires of several shootings by the Pou Nu Army, Borjiha roughly inferred that the Pou Nu Army had not had many attacks at night, and only more than a thousand soldiers were disturbing the matter in the west, which turned the camp station in the west of the Mongolian coalition. Because it was dark and could not see the battlefield clearly, Borjiha could only distinguish the battlefield situation from the desperate shouts of the Mongolian coalition. Soon, Borjiha judged that the Mongolian coalition was not attacked in the north and east garrisons, and then he guessed that the Pou Nu Army's military strength was insufficient.
If Borjiha was the leader of the Pou Nu Army, he would certainly make complete preparations for a night attack. As long as the troops were sufficient, he could ambush the ambush in the north and east at the same time. Once the night attack on the west side succeeded, the other two sides would attack at the same time, which would inevitably disrupt the main camp of the Mongolian coalition. In this way, the Bonu Army behind him would take the initiative on the battlefield. However, the opponent's leader of the Pou Nu Army did not do this, which would be very telling. The Mongolian Khan King Borjiha judged that the opponent's leader of the Pou Nu Army dared to make a decision on the night attack, which indicated that the Pou Nu Army was a person who could seize the opportunity.
Since the general of the Pou Nu Army judged the weakness of the Mongolian coalition and decided to make a night attack decision, he still did not dare to attack the northern and eastern garrisons where the Mongols were dominant, it only means that the Pou Nu Army did not have the power to attack many places. Another point is that the Pou Nu Army led the troops to the main water source more, limiting his room for performance. Thinking of this, the Mongolian Khan King Borjiha issued a general order, not allowing any rescue of the western military camps to be rescued, and allowed the Mongolian coalition forces to continue in chaos on the west. At the same time, Borjiha also ordered the north Mongolian Wanhu Surileheke (Mongolian: Vigilant) to send a small group of troops to fight to test whether there are ambushings here. If the Pou Nu Army has ambushings, they can break away from contact with the Pou Nu Army, and only monitor the movements of the Pou Nu Army, and do not allow the entire army to attack at will.
No matter how well-trained the army is, there will be chaos in the night battle, and the Pou Nu Army will inevitably have chaos in the night battle. In front of the Pou Nu Army's military formation, there will be a sharpshooter team to snipe the enemy's high-value targets. Fei Jin, the General Secretary of the Pou Nu Army, considered many details before the battle, but only forgot about the Thunderbolt Squad. After the Pou Nu Army succeeded in attacking the enemy's camp in the dark, the huge chaos on the battlefield gradually made these veterans who had been on the battlefield a little confused.
Even if the musket soldiers shoot blindly during the day, they still have a sense of target. However, in the dark, the musket soldiers of the Blazer Army not only need to load ammunition in the dark, but also have to forget to load ammunition every step. Otherwise, the muskets that compact the lead ammunition are forgotten, and the muskets that cannot be loaded will become fire sticks. Therefore, after firing more than ten rounds of muskets, each department ordered the general to stop shooting in the dark to clean up the residue of the muskets, many musket soldiers of the Blazer Army forget the sharpshooter team in front. Not to mention that ordinary combat soldiers forget the sharpshooter team in front, even the leaders of each department also forgot the brothers in the tense battle.
When the leader of the team issued another shooting order, bursts of screams came from the front of the Muskets Army's musket army. This was the last reminder when the loader of the Pound Slaughter Army's sharpshooter team was accidentally killed. The Pound Slaughter Army's sharpshooter can be said to be a veteran. After many life and death experiences, they would not make fatal mistakes at any time on the battlefield. They still shoot in a lying position according to the rules. The Pound Slaughter Army's muskets are not short, and those brothers who helped them load ammunition cannot lie on the ground to load ammunition. They load ammunition in a kneeling position, but they failed to avoid the lead ammunition shot by their brothers behind them.
