I formed the strongest swordsman group
Chapter 899: Raiding the enemy camp! Disrupting the Choshu army! [4500]
Since becoming the commander of an army, Qing Deng has come to understand more and more why "Heavenly Khan" Li Shimin is so fond of taking risks alone.
Holding a precious bow and a long spear, and leading a few cavalry, he dared to ride on the enemy and stroll outside the enemy camp... Although it was very heroic, it really made people sweat.
At first glance, Li Shimin seemed to be pretending with his life, but in fact it was not the case.
It is easy to imagine that such a super-powerful man who created an era would not risk his life for pretending?
The reason why such tactics are frequently used is that on the one hand, he is skilled and daring, and he is not afraid of danger, and on the other hand, it is to obtain intelligence more quickly and efficiently.
Even in modern times with advanced technology, it is extremely difficult to obtain accurate intelligence on the enemy on a rapidly changing battlefield.
Due to backward and poor traffic conditions, intelligence is often delayed.
When the intelligence collected by the scouts is sent to Qing Deng, it may be outdated.
As for whether this information is accurate, that is another question.
A kind father in the 20th century once said: It is not difficult to obtain information, but it is difficult to find the correct one from this pile of information.
So, instead of staying in the tent, waiting for information that you don’t know when it will come and whether it is accurate, it is better to go there yourself!
Go to the front line in person, observe the details of the enemy camp with your own eyes, or directly fight with the enemy, and you can immediately understand the enemy’s strengths and weaknesses.
In addition to being too dangerous and easy to get out of trouble, it is an efficient tactic that achieves twice the result with half the effort!
…
…
The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and the snow is getting heavier and heavier.
It was still a light snow a while ago, but it has turned into heavy snow now.
In an instant, the earth was covered with a thick white coat, and the white earth stretched into the distance, with no edge in sight.
This is the first snow in Choshu this year.
It didn’t snow early or late, but it just happened to snow at this time when the expeditionary army was approaching the city.
In this way, this sudden heavy snow seemed to be a prank by God, which well reflected the current mood of the Choshu generals and soldiers.
Inside and outside the camp, there was a heavy atmosphere everywhere.
From the generals wearing the battle feathers to the soldiers wearing only a battle hat, everyone had a stern face and looked gloomy.
In order to prevent the torches from going out, they had to put a lantern cover on the torch coat.
No matter how strong the wind and snow were or how bad the weather was, it was impossible to stop patrolling and standing guard.
On the observation tower at the southeast end of the camp, three soldiers - they huddled, their eyelashes were covered with frost and snow, and their faces were frozen and bloodless - diligently guarded their posts.
Even if no one suggested, they spontaneously stood close together, back to back, sharing each other's body temperature.
The night plus the flying snow... the vision was extremely poor.
Even if you exhaust your eyesight, you can't see the scenery 10 meters away.
Anyway, you can't see it, which makes people wonder whether it is meaningful to stand guard at this time.
Just as they were boredly scanning the shadows and layers of snow outside the camp... suddenly, the tip of one of them's ears trembled a few times.
Then, he frowned slightly, stretched his neck, stared at the outside of the camp with a nervous expression, and asked the two companions beside him:
"Hmm? Did you hear any sound?"
"Sound?"
"I only heard the sound of the wind."
Although the other two did not notice anything unusual, they still stood up and checked every place and every corner within their sight.
Suddenly, the sentry who first heard the unusual sound suddenly saw a silver light flashing in the darkness in the distance.
The next moment... really a moment! This silver light extended and stretched, turning into a silver line, shooting straight towards them!
Swish!
The sound of a sharp weapon entering the flesh was heard immediately.
The sentry who first noticed something was wrong took two steps back, then fell to the ground with blood foaming from his mouth. There was an arrow stuck in his throat, and the arrowhead entered from his throat and came out from the back of his neck.
Blood and bone fragments formed a mist, which sprayed everywhere and landed on the faces of the other two sentries.
The sudden attack instantly took away their expressions, complexions, and voices.
They opened their eyes wide, looked dazed, and looked at their companions who fell at their feet.
This fleeting loss of consciousness made them miss the last chance to escape.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
From the first arrow to the second arrow and the third arrow, there was almost no interval, one arrow after another.
In just a blink of an eye, two more arrows broke through the air.
The same speed, the same accuracy, and the same shot through the throat.
The two men immediately followed their companions, and they didn't even have time to scream, and they died on the spot before they even came to their senses.
In less than three seconds, the watchtower was taken down and the sentries on it were all cleared.
Snap, snap, snap, snap, snap...
Immediately after the sound of arrows, the sound of trampling snow came from afar.
After a while, ghostly shadows jumped out of the wind and snow.
The leader was Qing Deng.
He held an arrow in one hand and a bow in the other, looking back and forth like an eagle, searching for the enemy.
The longbow in his hand was the precious bow given to him by Tianzhangyuan - Yisezha Furiluo.
Although he had not used a bow for a long time, it did not affect its performance at all.
His two legs clamped the waist and back of Luobo tightly like iron clamps - the talent "Cat Turn +4" was activated - firmly fixed his body, maintaining the stability of shooting, so as to launch a "roll call" shooting.
No one he targeted could escape or survive!
This sudden heavy snowfall really helped them a lot.
The dark night and the falling snow covered their figures.
The thick snow covered the hoof sounds of horses (cows).
Thanks to this snow, their concealment reached an unprecedented level!
Of course, assaulting in the wind and snow was undoubtedly a huge test for Qing Deng and others.
The wind and snow were already very cold, and the strong wind blowing against the trend when riding horses (cows) brought a deep chill.
Although Qing Deng and others had wrapped a windproof towel on their faces in advance and dressed as thickly as possible, they still felt the cold.
Qing Deng felt that his face was strangely numb.
Every muscle on his face seemed to be frozen, and even the simplest "smile" expression was difficult to make.
Whether it was a person or a mount, all were covered with frost and snow.
It was true that people became snowmen and horses (cows) became snow horses (cows).
With the blessing of talents such as "Lock Blood +7" and "Yuan Yang +7", Qing Deng was as strong as an ox and had a strong endurance for various extreme environments, so he only felt a little cold.
On the other hand, Harada Sanosuke and others were frozen, shivering and chattering.
Finally... as the enemy camp approached, the unbearable cold finally ended.
Looking at the enemy camp that was getting closer and closer, and looking at the target that was getting clearer and clearer, everyone, including Qing Deng, felt the cold gradually disappear.
Instead, there was a strong heat like fire!
Blood rushed rapidly.
Adrenaline began to soar.
The heart beat hard, "boom", "boom" sound!
The boiling will to fight, and the soaring body temperature, even melted the frost between their eyebrows!
The so-called "surprise attack", if you want to achieve the best surprise effect, you have to extend the time from "start of the surprise attack" to "being discovered by the enemy" as much as possible.
For this reason, Qing Deng's two talents - "Wind Perception +4" and "Fire Eyes +5" - are activated!
With his superhuman vision and hearing, he constantly finds out the sentries and hidden sentries, eliminates them one by one, and spares no effort to shoot the sentries, trying to extend the time to be discovered.
The incessant sound of the wind did not make his hearing ineffective; the vast flying snow did not hinder his vision.
Of course, no matter how powerful Qing Deng is, it is impossible to wipe out all the sentry points with just one person and one bow.
Suddenly, several urgent shouts and high-pitched horns broke the silence of the camp.
"Enemy attack! The enemy is attacking!"
"Light green feathers! It's the Shinsengumi!"
In an instant, like a cannonball falling, the Choshu camp "exploded".
"What? Enemy attack?"
"Where are the enemies? Where are they?!"
"Don't panic! Don't panic! Listen to the instructions! Don't run around!"
There were shouts everywhere.
There were figures running around everywhere.
Seeing this, Qing Deng silently hung the Isezha Fuhiro in his hand back to the saddle, and then "clang clang clang" pulled out the Bizen Osafune from his waist.
Since it has been discovered, it's time for the sword to appear!
As if a chain reaction had started, the riders behind him drew their swords.
The bright blade light dimmed the current firelight.
"'Immortal Harada', come!"
Harada Sanosuke howled and held the spear steady, and with just one strike, he picked up a poor guy who accidentally entered his attack range.
In the feudal era, one of the core tasks of the cavalry was to "break the enemy's formation."
Tuck the spear under the armpit and use the impact of the horse to defeat the enemy.
Nowadays, with the development of military technology, the task of "breaking the enemy's formation" has been replaced by artillery.
Therefore, the current cavalry has only one task left: to chase and annihilate the remaining enemies! Expand the results of the war!
Qing Deng, who is well aware of this, specially selected the "Tachi" as the main weapon of the Shinsengumi Cavalry.
The spear is only suitable for "frontal charge" and is not suitable for pursuit and annihilation because it is not flexible enough - the advantages and disadvantages of the sword are the opposite of the spear.
The Tachi is a weapon specifically used for horse battles.
In order to show their personal bravery, that is, to show off, the samurai masters of the Heian period were keen on horse battles and horseback shooting, so the Tachi came into being.
Compared with the katana, the blade of the Tachi is longer and more curved, which is suitable for swinging and chopping on horseback with the momentum of the charge!
After the cavalry team plunged into the chaotic enemy group, one Tachi after another fell in an instant, chopping the Choshu generals and soldiers off their horses!
The blades of the cavalry swept across the necks of the Choshu generals and soldiers and across the bodies of the enemies.
Just like locusts passing through, the cavalry team left broken limbs and debris everywhere!
Qing Deng did not forget that this night attack was to scout the enemy, and destroying the enemy camp and weakening the enemy army was just a side job.
Therefore, since breaking into the Changzhou camp, his eyes have never been idle, turning quickly and scanning left and right.
The layout of the camp, the appearance and status of the Changzhou soldiers, especially their reactions when facing the night attack... Qing Deng did not miss any of these, seeing them all and remembering them in his heart.
Of course, at the same time, his hands did not slow down at all!
The talent "Left and Right Fighting" is activated!
[Note Left and Right Fighting: Being able to do two things at the same time, you can do two unrelated things at the same time. ]
Even if he was distracted to check the enemy situation, it would not prevent him from breaking through the enemy's formation!
The reason why he chose to draw his sword instead of using the long spear was to take this opportunity to get used to the new sword and speed up the running-in.
"Moo moo moo!"
The carrot charged forward, knocking down one unlucky guy after another.
At this time, a man suddenly jumped to the side before the carrot hit him with his agile skills and escaped.
There is no doubt that he was very lucky.
But from another perspective, he was really unlucky - because in the next moment, the Bizen long ship drew an arc trajectory and slashed towards his chest.
Accompanied by the sound of cutting flesh and breaking bones, the man's chest was chopped into a bloody mess, with only a little flesh and skin left.
After collapsing on the ground, before he could struggle a few times, he was buried by the snow raised by the horseshoes of the following cavalry.
In a blink of an eye, Qing Deng took the knife back to his hand, re-arranged his fighting posture, quickly concentrated his amazing energy, and then released it in one breath -
Swish!
The blade drew an arc in the air, and three heads fell to the ground.
When the blade was put away, it swept through the enemy group, and two more bodies became fragments.
—— Very good!
Qing Deng tightened the knife in his hand, and was satisfied with his first battle on the Bizen Osafune.
Compared with slashing at the air, it is indeed better to show the performance of the knife in actual combat.
Qing Deng, who gradually entered the state, slowly exhaled the turbid air, and then swung the knife in his hand up and down, killing the enemy as soon as he met it!
Every guy who was unfortunate enough to enter his slashing range was killed without exception.
Qing Deng, Harada Sanosuke, and this group of carefully selected cavalrymen were all proficient in horsemanship.
Sometimes they put on the reins, sometimes they whipped; sometimes they galloped, and sometimes they ran slowly.
Through precise adjustment and control, the sweaty horses (cows) can rest for a while and save energy.
As we all know, horses have very poor endurance, and cows are not much better.
If the horses (cows) were constantly squeezed, they would all be exhausted in a short while.
The horses' (cows') hooves trampled violently on the frosty white ground, like a heavy rainstorm, and the trampled snow kept flying everywhere.
While trampling the ground, they also trampled on the enemy's corpses and broken military flags.
The battle flag embroidered with "Three Stars of Ichimonji" (the family crest of the Mori family) fell to the ground and was trampled beyond recognition by the hooves.
Swords and spears clashed.
Horses and men shouted.
Sweat and blood danced with the wind and snow.
In the chaos, Qing Deng and others had already advanced to the depths of the Choshu camp.
The original "snowman" had become a "blood man", and the "white blade" had become a blood blade.
At this moment, Qing Deng's eyebrows moved slightly - the talent "Foresight +9" was unconsciously activated.
【Note: Prediction +9: He has a strong ability to perceive the danger that is about to happen around him. The degree of perception will increase with the severity of the danger. However, this ability will not be triggered for people and objects that are not dangerous in personal subjective judgment. 】
He sensed that there was danger coming from the left side.
In an instant, Qing Deng, who was sure that the danger was coming, quickly leaned back with the help of his talent "Fast +6", and used his back to find the saddle.
The next breath, an old three-bar spear stabbed out from the side and passed by Qing Deng's chest. The skin on his chest could even feel the coolness of the spear tip.
Before Qing Deng could kill the thief, Harada Sanosuke, who happened to be on his left side, served him - he pushed the spear forward and sent the other party to see the king of hell without any effort.
The position chosen by Harada Sanosuke was very particular.
Because Qing Deng held the knife with his right hand and often had to hold the reins with his left hand, his left side was his biggest flaw.
If Harada Sanosuke always stays on the left side of Qing Deng, he can make up for this loophole and better support Qing Deng.
"Mr. Tachibana, it's not good."
Harada Sanosuke put the spear back in his hand and turned his head to Qing Deng.
"The enemy army is gradually reacting!"
Qing Deng glanced around and said lightly:
"I was expecting to defeat the Choshu army directly with this battle."
"It seems that it's not that easy."
Please give me a monthly ticket! Please give me a recommendation ticket! (Baotou crying.jpg)
ps: A book friend in the comment area provided a very good reference picture. In Baobao's fantasy, Sanako would look like this after wearing a kendo uniform, with a high ponytail, a big bear, and heroic spirit.
