Datang: Ten Years of Proton, Leading an Army of Millions to Return

After leaving a total of more than [-] corpses and prisoners, Yuchi Jingde returned to the army safely.

"Medicine Master, I...I failed!!"

Yuchi Jingde came to plead guilty: "Damn it, Dayan has archers, and they are no worse than the Qinglong Camp back then. Our army can't break through!"

"General White Tiger must have taught this to them, damn it, damn it!"

Yuchi Jingde was furious.

Li Jing and others will remain silent.

They were all famous generals of the Tang Dynasty. Most of their previous expeditions were successful, but this time Yuchi Jingde returned in such embarrassment.

They don't feel ashamed, but feel lucky.

Fortunately, Yuchi Jingde did not take the lead and retreated in time, so that the losses could be reduced a lot.

"This great flame... is really terrifying!"

After a long while, Li Jing spoke.

He is the commander-in-chief of an army, and his words and deeds have a lot of meaning. Saying this can be considered as acknowledgment of Dayan's strong combat power.

The entire Tang Dynasty recognized it!
  And among them.

Yuchi Jingde was still immersed in his own troubles.

"Damn it! How come there are horse archers in Great Yan? How can they have them? Where do they get the resources!!."

His eyes were scarlet.

anger!
  Boundless anger!
  He just kept silent and sent away more than [-] of his soldiers.

"Jingde, are you... okay?"

At this time, a voice sounded.

Yuchi Jingde turned his head blankly and saw Li Jing, Chai Shao, Zhang Liang and others looking at him with great concern.

Only then did Yuchi Jingde come to his senses and laugh miserably for the rest of his life.

"Yakushi, Chai Shao, you... I, I was defeated. I didn't achieve any results, and there was not even any trouble. You just sent away my three thousand soldiers. I... I..."

Yuchi Jingde seemed to have collapsed, his voice was trembling: "I really don't know, I don't know what happened, Dayan... I, if I had withdrawn earlier, there wouldn't have been so many people who died. ? I’m going my own way, I’m going my own way!!”

"Pharmacist, everyone, I...I really didn't want to. I didn't show the power of the Tang Dynasty in this battle, and I even lost so many soldiers for no reason. I...I didn't show the bravery of the Tang Dynasty in one go. I ….I deserve to die!”

Li Jing sighed repeatedly when he saw this.

One hand slapped Yuchi Jingde hard on the shoulder.

"it's okay no problem."

"We have seen all the processes. They are cavalry archers. You don't have the horses and crossbows to match them. Even if they are led by gods and Buddhas, they will die at the foot of Pu County."

"I don't blame you, I really don't blame you. It's already a great honor for you to be alive."

Li Jing kept comforting.

Of course he also knew that this battle was not Yuchi Jingde's fault, but that the enemy was too powerful!

Extremely terrifying and powerful! !
  No wonder there were so few defenders on the walls of Pu County. Even if they saw the Tang Dynasty troops approaching the city, they were not afraid at all.

They have support in their hands, a huge support.

"Do you want... to attack this Pu County in one go?"

At this time, Qin Qiong couldn't help but make suggestions.

Li Jing was thinking, while Yuchi Jingde spoke again.

"Pharmacist, you survived... We can survive only because of the mercy of the Great Yan defenders."

"When they saw me retreating, they stopped pursuing me. They could still pursue me. If they continued to pursue our troops, there would be greater casualties, but they didn't."

"It's their general who doesn't know? It's impossible. It's impossible for Dayan to let an idiot become the general of the cavalry. They know everything but don't pursue him."

"Being treated so calmly by them, and even let go, so humiliating, I would rather die on the battlefield!"

"Given the size of the army under my command, really, the cavalry archers were like a cat catching a mouse, and our army had no ability to resist at all!"

"Actually, if the Great Flame Archers want to kill me, I...I can't even get close to the city wall!"

Yuchi Jingde looked into Li Jing's eyes, his voice trembling, and his memory was extremely deep, how desperate he felt when the cavalry archer came out.

And he was still lucky in his heart that the cavalry archer was not as powerful as the Qinglong battalion in his memory, but it turned out that he was wrong, how wrong it was!
  The despair has reached its peak!

That kind of despair runs throughout, from top to bottom, and there is no way to suppress it!

Li Jing was silent.

The same is true for Chai Shao, Qin Qiong and others.

They stood here quietly, looking at Pu County from a distance.

That county town,

The Cavalry Army… is too intimidating.

Just like the high-tech weapons of later generations, as long as you are stronger than the enemy country in one aspect, the enemy country will never be able to sleep.

And this situation is also the same in the Tang Dynasty now.

The Turkic cavalry can never catch up, so the border often cannot sleep.

right now,

With this cavalry archer in Dayan, they... can't sleep! !

Attack?
  But that archer and cavalry army is an army of thousands of people visible to the naked eye. What if they attack by force and take the camp directly?
  What if we don’t send many people, just like Yuchi Jingde just now, and we are constantly being kited?
  and,

information display.

Although there are not many defenders stationed on the Pu County city wall, they are actually the trump card army claimed by Dayan, Wei Wuzu.

in addition,

The scouts came to report that Chen Qingzhi's seven thousand white-robed troops were not missing, and they were all heading towards Pu County.

Have you arrived in Pu County? They don't know either.

Chen Qingzhi was unpredictable in his military use, not much worse than Li Jing. Li Jing even believed that the reason why Chen Qingzhi's seven thousand white-robed troops were discovered by scouts was because Chen Qingzhi deliberately exposed them.

Just to get the scout to come back and tell him, and then become a deterrent to the dark side.

Let Li Jing use his troops, and he will never be able to let go!

Li Jing is very capable and is even known as the God of War, but he is mainly a man of surprise and difficulty.

but now!
  The dead target is here!

Pu County, the place to be captured!
  Then all strategies are centered around Pu County!

As for siege, besides night attacks or natural disasters and floods, what other tricks can be used?
  The so-called surprise is completely abolished here.

Capture Pu County.

How to capture it?

What's the solution to this question?
  Li Jing frowned, and the more he thought about it, the less effective he could find.

"what happened?"

"Pharmacist, what happened? Why is Jingde back?"

"Why did the spies come to report that the temptation was over? What happened? Why so quickly?"

"......."

At this time, Cheng Yaojin came over.

He is mainly responsible for leading troops out to defend Chen Qingzhi's army that may appear.

Chen Qingzhi's participation in the battle was unknown, so Li Jing always allocated [-] troops to defend against Chen Qingzhi's [-] white-robed troops.

Of the [-], [-] were unable to move. Just now, Yuchi Jingde led an army of [-] to test out the [-] troops. However, he was disappointed and returned with nothing but more than [-] corpses.

Obviously,

Ten thousand people cannot attack Pu County, and even twenty thousand people are not enough. Li Jing sighed when he thought of this.

This year's locust plague has greatly restricted Datang, so that only [-] troops have been mobilized in an emergency.

If it had been last year, because the Turkic troops were approaching the Weishui River, they had massively expanded their troops and deployed defenses. So if it had been last year, they would have mobilized [-] troops in a hurry!

And if there are an army of [-], then his strategy can be applied easily!
  Unfortunately….no!

The opportunity and timing that Dayan seized were so clever!
  The person behind the scenes is as clever as a master!
  Shaking his head, Li Jing stopped thinking about it.

He looked at Cheng Yaojin, his brows furrowed, his eyes serious: "Things have changed, Dayan... it's not as simple as we thought."

"I should have thought that if Yang Kuan could train Chen Qingzhi's [-] white-robed army and defeat me in the Tang Dynasty's first attack, how could he be an ordinary person?"

"I should have thought of it a long time ago, I should have thought of it a long time ago..."

"It seems we can't be impulsive about Pu County. Let's check the casualties and review the situation first, and we'll discuss it later."

Li Jing said solemnly.

He didn't even dare to deduce it.

According to the attacking rhythm of the Great Yan Archers just now, how many people would have died if they had used the human sea tactic that was most commonly used in Tang Dynasty sieges.

It is estimated that people in the front group kept falling down.

There may still be fighting intentions coming towards them, but what kind of collapse will happen when they realize that they can never catch up with the cavalry?
  Others can hit them and kill them, but it is difficult for them to touch each other. How desperate is this?

No matter how strong the military spirit and faith are, cracks will appear!
  Therefore,
  You can't attack rashly, you have to be fully confident before you attack, and then... you will win with one strike!
  then.

Order after order.

Summarize the casualties, summarize the morale of the troops, and inquire about the psychological shadow of the charging soldiers...
  Various commands.

Start getting organized.

quickly,

Something that needs attention is placed in front of Li Jing and others.

It was a suit of battle armor.

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty who joined the army were all from good families, equivalent to the middle class in later generations.

Joining the army represents the opportunity to achieve military success, just like when Xiang Yu was defeated and committed suicide, one of the captains grabbed Xiang Yu's thigh and soared into the sky, founded a family, and became the Cui family of Qinghe, one of the five surnames and seven hopes.

There are many living examples that show that military service can really make a family prosperous.

Therefore, this kind of opportunity will not be available to people at the bottom, and only good family members will participate.

These good family members are also the elite of the Tang Dynasty.

Therefore.

Datang was also very serious about protecting them, choosing the best armor, weapons, etc. for them.

That's why.

Historically, the Tang Dynasty has repeatedly created classics of defeating many with less, and even [-] people chasing [-] people to fight, all relying on the advantage of weapons.

It's like a man with a stick hitting someone with empty hands. How can he not beat him?
  And now.

A set of armor silenced Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Wei Chi Jingde and others.

That suit of armor,

Pierced by a bow and arrow.

The armor is expensive to build, and it can be said that ordinary bows and arrows are difficult to penetrate, but this armor was penetrated, directly from the front to the back.

Such powerful lethality!

It also instantly made Li Jing and others understand why the Great Yan Cavalry Archers were able to kill three thousand people in such a short period of time.

It's because their archery skills are amazing, their horses are extremely fast, and even their bows and arrows are so terrifyingly sharp!
  "This...this arrow..."

Qin Qiong took down the arrow and found that it couldn't be taken off. She didn't take a breath until she took it out.

"This arrow! The arrow body is made of silver!!"

"And the arrows are not iron arrows, they are silver!!"

Qin Qiong was shocked.

"What, Silver?"

"How can this... this Great Yan be so extravagant! Do they have so much money that they can't use it all?"

"Damn it! I heard that they opened a trade route with Silla. Maybe they sold the cement from the country to Silla and made money!"

"Silla already has a lot of silver mines, and they are no worse than our Tang Dynasty. It is really possible for them!"

"......."

Cheng Yaojin and others were shocked.

Qin Qiong, as for Qin Qiong, weighed the weight at this moment. As someone who has been in the military for half his life, Qin Qiong instantly knew that this arrow must be at least six times heavier than an ordinary arrow!
  "They, they're fighting with money!"

"Real silver, we smelted and smelted this arrow, it can really be used as silver!"

He couldn't believe it more and more.

As a general who has been in the army for many years, he knows the role of bows and arrows very well.

They are basically consumables and are easy to consume, so most of them use wooden bodies, plus some necessary iron arrows.

This is a huge workload, requiring a lot of craftsmen, and consumes a lot of labor and materials.

But even so, it is still a consumable product and can be produced on a large scale.

Just like the Three Kingdoms era,
  Everyone knows that Zhuge's military advisor borrowed arrows from a straw boat and borrowed [-] arrows from Cao Cao in one night.

This is just the amount of cum shot in one night!

If the battle situation is tense, or even falls into a critical battle, and the battle is all about consumption, then the consumption of bows and arrows can be said to be tens of thousands!
  And now!
  Dayan... Dayan actually used silver to throw arrows again! !

How terrifying!
  Arrows made of silver have the advantage of having stronger penetrating power, but because they are made of silver, they can be used even if captured by the enemy.

But they are difficult to use!
  Because Yuchi Jingde was defeated just now, most of the corpses were dumped there.

At that time, Qin Qiong and others watched the battle end and Yanren cleaned up the battlefield in time. They didn't quite understand it, but now they can understand it.

They are recycling silver arrows!

"With so much wealth and armaments, wouldn't my Datang armor become a joke?"

Li Jing gasped.

Secretly, I was frightened.

Simultaneously.

I feel more and more that my decision was correct. Fortunately, I didn't attack just now!
  Otherwise, the casualties will only be greater!
  "Oh my God, what kind of demons and monsters are in power in Dayan? They dare to use silver to make arrows!"

"This silver arrow is expensive, but in front of it, our army's armor has become a complete joke. In the past, it was difficult for the elite to defeat the many with a small number, and it is difficult to repeat it with Dayan."

"Pharmacist, what else should we do? Do we still need to fight?"

"......."

Still... fight?

It was Cheng Yaojin who was full of fighting spirit who proposed.

His fighting spirit was always high, no matter when the Turkic troops came to Chang'an City, or when they attacked Dayan for the first time, or when they went out to fight against Dayan now, etc.

The fighting spirit never retreats.

but now….
  Seeing this silver arrow, look at the cavalry archers, the powerful Wei soldiers, and the white-robed army who are secretly missing.

I have to admit, he... is also scared!

In this battle, Dayan showed how rich and elite he was, too many!
