Great Warriors of Sui and Tang Dynasties

Chapter 267 Two thousand battles one hundred thousand

Shi Meng led people to hoist a hundred ballistas to the hastily erected crossbow towers.

A hundred crossbow towers stood in the small camp, and the strings on the crossbows on the crossbow towers had already been twisted and the crossbows were loaded.The three large crossbows on the three-gun crossbow were ready to go, while the larger seven-gun crossbow had several crossbowmen still spinning the winch.

Qi Guoyuan held his own bow and inspected the wall of the camp, and the more he looked at it, the more he frowned.

"General, our preparations are still not enough. The wall of the village is only one layer high. Although we have built a defensive wall behind it with baggage trucks and food trucks, it is still too weak. A trench should be dug outside the camp, preferably again. On both sides of the ditch, there is a row of horse-rejection posts."

"In the ditch, we need to put some sharp stakes in it. Finally, within fifty steps before the ditch, we need to scatter more caltrops, plant some antlers, and dig some horse pits."

Luo Cheng patted the fat man.

Smiling and comforting him, he said, "Lieutenant Qi, although it is the first time for our group to fight against the Goguryeo people, it is actually not that good, so you don't have to worry too much. Just treat it as the one you fought against the Goguryeo people in Jiuyuan before." The Turkic people encountered it, if it was then, how would you face it?"

"Oh, what if our Jiuyuan Town soldiers encounter the Turks on the Fortress." Fatty Qi touched his head, "It depends on the number of the enemy and us. If the numbers are equal, then we must chase the Turks. It’s hard to seize the opportunity, and I can’t let the fat in my hand go away.”

"If there are fewer Turkic people than us, let alone, it is basically chasing after chasing."

"Then what if you are less than Turks?" Luo Cheng asked with a smile.

"Look how much less, for example, we only have half of the Turkic people, then we must still fight, no matter what, just rush to kill. If we have fewer numbers, only one-third, we can also fight. If only one-tenth of the Turkic people , at this time, we will fight while retreating."

Fatty Qi asked, "You know the great general, the governor of Qichun County Gong Da Xi Changru?"

"In the second year of Kaihuang, Sabolo Khan and his younger brother Yehu Khan of the Turks led 10,000+ troops to invade and plunder southward. The Turks met, and the number of the two sides was very different, but Daxi Changru was not afraid, impassioned, and encouraged his subordinates with a heroic look. They were scattered by the Turks and then gathered together. They fought and left. After three days of fighting, the sword broke When they ran out of arrows, they used their fists as weapons, and continued to fight with the Turks. Many soldiers knocked out the bones in their hands, killing and injuring tens of thousands of Turks. In the end, the Turks’ morale plummeted, but they failed to kill them. an army."

"Daxi Changru still led his army to defend a dangerous mountain. He was severely wounded in five places and pierced in two places. His soldiers were killed in nine out of ten battles, but they did not retreat or surrender. In the end, the Turks saw The reinforcements of the Sui army were approaching, so they had no choice but to burn the corpses and leave crying loudly."

After hearing this, the fourth son and the others all exclaimed, "Excellent, this magistrate is really a god."

In two thousand battles with 10,000+, tens of thousands of people could be killed and wounded. Even if [-] to [-]% of the battles were killed, they did not surrender. In the end, the Turks had no choice but to withdraw.

In the words of Fatty Qi, if their original Wuyuan frontier army had 2000 men and 2000 cavalry, then there was nothing to worry about, just do it.But now it’s not because these [-] soldiers are all recruits. A year ago, they were all farmers. One thousand and four, most of them are soldiers from the new military mansion.

He also brought four thousand civilian husbands, so he was so worried.

He was originally demoted due to being implicated, and now the chief general Luo Cheng is the nephew of the first runner-up general Luo Yi, if anything goes wrong, his life is probably over.

"General Daxi, two thousand fights one hundred thousand. Although I, Luo Cheng, don't have the ability, two thousand against three thousand is worthwhile. What's more, we have so many bows and crossbows, and we are defending the camp to resist the enemy, so there is no need to go too far." Fear." Although Luo Cheng never thought about going out to fight in the camp, he was worthy of the camp.

Not to mention anything else, those one hundred winch crossbows are a big killer.

Moreover, his 2000 soldiers and horses have three thousand bows and eight hundred crossbows. These alone are enough for a Goguryeo cavalry to drink a pot.

If there is no camp, Luo Cheng will still be worried that these weapons will not be able to exert their due power, but since there is a camp, he is still afraid of a bird.

Luo Cheng is now eager for the Goguryeo people to launch a bloody charge, just so that the first group will see blood, win the battle and make a contribution.

Shi Xin moved to Luo Cheng's side with his heavy spear.

"Brother, our black light cavalry can charge and counterattack at any time."

Luo Cheng just shook his head.

"It's not yet time for you to make a move. When you really want to use you, I will naturally give the order. Now, you go back to your fearless camp, appease your subordinates, and continue to recharge your batteries."

One hundred black light iron cavalry, this is the biggest trump card in Luo Cheng's hand, and Luo Cheng is reluctant to take it out easily before the critical moment.This kind of thing belongs to the level of strategic nuclear weapons, and it is more of a deterrent. It is not worthwhile to take it out and consume it casually.

"Today's battle, let's test everyone's bow and shoot skills."

The first regiment now has a bow, and the bow and crossbow battalion even has two bows and another crossbow. They also have no shortage of arrows. The two civilian regiments have brought a lot of food, grass and luggage with the army, and the arrows are enough. There are 30 rounds, and each person has 150 arrows on average, which is enough to fight several battles.

Eight hundred crossbows and three thousand bows.

Luo Cheng intends to teach Goguryeo people what war is.It doesn't mean that Qingqi will win against infantry. Although three thousand Qingqi are strong, if they really dare to attack this temporary camp, then they have to experience the power of the Sui crossbow.

The outcome of a war is never a matter of quantity, nor is it a competition of arms.

There is no strongest unit, only well-matched units.

With the addition of bows and crossbows in the camp, the crossbowmen have the protection of the camp, especially the towering crossbow towers and archery towers, which greatly increase the power of the crossbow in this camp.

This is a huge crossbow arrow position.

"Wow!"

The Goguryeo people on the opposite side were stationed a hundred steps outside the horse camp, looking very bold and arrogant.

At a distance of a hundred steps, an ordinary bow can do damage.

After pointing at the camp for a while, the Goguryeo people seemed to find that this camp was a bit unusual. They fought against the Sui army a lot, and they were very familiar with the equipment of the Sui army. Besides, they could still understand the towering archery towers in the camp. of.

"Fifth, shoot the fuck." The fourth had no way to get out of the camp, so he could only jump up and down beside Luo Cheng.Seeing the arrogant appearance of those Goguryeo people on horseback, he asked Luo Cheng to use the crossbow.

The longest range of the crossbow is [-] steps, and the actual effective killing range is still [-] steps. Of course, the accuracy of this range cannot be guaranteed.

But there are a hundred crossbows, no matter whether he is accurate or not, shoot him for a while first, who will let those Goguryeo people stand at a hundred paces.

"What's the hurry, it's not easy to wind the winch crossbow once." Luo Cheng shook his head and didn't agree.

The crossbow mounted on the crossbow tower is more powerful. As long as he gives an order, this round of salvo can at least bring hundreds of Goguryeo Qingqi.

But Luo Cheng didn't do that.

He just waited there quietly, waiting for the Goguryeo people to act first, which seemed to be afraid of Goguryeo's three thousand Qingqi.

"The clouds are light and the wind is clear. Today is really a good weather." Luo Cheng said with a smile.
