Cao Cao's chef

Chapter 866 A Crucial Quarter Of Hours
"What should I do?" Although Cao Ang looked at Dong Zhao, his expression was not too nervous, and he just sat and watched Dong Zhao build up the soil like this, as if he didn't care.But also, in the current situation, the general means of defending the city are ineffective.

Since he couldn't stop it, he could only watch the opponent build up the earth platform.Unless, abandon the city wall and go out to fight in the field.

"I didn't expect that the other party would think of such a siege method..." Dong Zhao was also a little curious. Such a siege method was something that the barbarians would not have thought of before.Sure enough, with the passage of time, the methods of the barbarians have gradually increased.

Immediately, she began to calculate the height and width of the earthen platform, and after some gestures, she replied: "A ramp that allows four horses to rush forward at the same time, rocks and logs may cause some damage, grease and rockets do not do much damage, but they can be used Use a spear array to deal with it, and at the same time, be careful of the shooting of the opponent's archers... It is recommended to dispatch the white scorpion soldiers and let the crossbowmen take cover!"

If it is heavy infantry, then the defense will be better, and the opponent's arrows will not be easy to cause damage.At the same time, it is indeed more convenient to use crossbows to fight back on the city wall than bows and arrows.

"No...no..." Cao Ang looked at the ramp, but he had other thoughts, "The city wall is not wide, so only one or two people are allowed to stand. If the white scorpion soldiers are especially responsible for attacking, then at most they can stand." one person……"

Immediately ordered: "The white scorpion soldiers are ready to kill me along the ramp, and the archers and crossbowmen will take over the cover and shoot."

"If the white scorpion soldiers go out, they will completely enter the enemy's attack range!" Dong Zhao reminded.At that time, the opponent will not only shoot, but can even rely on flat shooting for precise shooting.

"After training soldiers for so long, I can't always be a mascot." Cao Ang shook his head, "Bai Wubing is a big killer, even if the opponent is cavalry, they are still fearless. They should be killing machines on the battlefield, not a guard of honor. !"

He immediately turned around and looked behind him at the waiting Bai Mubing: "Are you a guard of honor?"

"No!" Bai Mubing replied immediately. From the establishment to the training, countless weak people were eliminated, and all the remaining ones were real iron-blooded men... There were also more than a dozen iron ladies.

"Then prove it to me, with the blood of these invaders!" Cao Ang pointed to the Southern Huns who were building the ramp.

Two-thirds of the ramp has been completed. Tens of thousands of people took turns to go to battle, pouring soil continuously, and throwing some sacks from time to time to compact the soil layer. This ramp has gradually formed with the passage of time.

"The time is a quarter of an hour, within a quarter of an hour, let me see how many enemies you can kill!" Cao Ang calculated the time, from the time when the opponent attacked the city to the subsequent filling of sand and building the slope, it was almost two hours before and after. The ambushes in Heishan and Linlushan can arrive at any time, and fifteen minutes is Cao Ang's psychological time.

"Yes!" Under the leadership of Chen Dao, the soldiers of Bai Mubing responded one after another.Immediately, without waiting for the opponent to finish building the earth platform, he jumped directly.That's right, it's almost finished, maybe it hasn't been tamped, but it's less than half a meter away from the city wall, and it doesn't matter if you jump down, just sinking into the soil a little bit, it's not a big problem.

"Hey, the opponent actually took the initiative to fight?" Gao Gan couldn't believe it. This group of soldiers wearing white felt hats, who looked a little strange, had the guts to give up defending the city and go directly to the battle.

But yes, it is meaningless to continue to defend. The earthen platform has been built. As long as it is slightly compacted, the Huns can even jump on it at a distance. At that time, the city wall will become a restriction instead.

"The question is, you actually used heavy infantry to deal with us Huns?" Liu Bao laughed at this moment.

Heavy infantry has a strong defense and is very suitable for attacking the positions of ordinary light infantry and pikemen. They even have certain resistance to bows and crossbows.But the disadvantages are also obvious. One piece of equipment is too much and too heavy, so that the movement speed and agility are reduced.The second thing is that the equipment does not cover the whole body, which means that the throat, arms and head, especially the head, will become the key points.

Liu Bao couldn't even figure out why these soldiers used felt hats as helmets. Could it be that the budget for this equipment had already been exhausted?
Look now, that snow-white felt hat seems to be like an arrow, signaling them to 'shoot inward'!
"If that's the case, then I'll be disrespectful!" Liu Bao ordered immediately, and then a thousand Xiongnu soldiers went out and shot at the head of the white scorpion soldiers.But I didn't want the arrows to hit the felt hat, some of them couldn't even pierce through, even if they were pierced, they couldn't penetrate!
"Why did this happen?" Liu Bao couldn't believe it. How could this seemingly defenseless felt hat hold their arrows?
If he was a time traveler, he would probably know that the outer skin of this felt hat is made of thick fabric similar to jeans.The inner lining is filled with cotton and the like, which is something like cotton armor or paper armor.

This thing's resistance to slashing is average, but its resistance to blunt and shooting is very strong.Using body armor as a metaphor, it will probably be simpler and easier to understand.For the Bai Mu soldiers, what they fear most is nothing more than the strong crossbow and arrows, after all, the natural speed is not fast.If you overcome this problem, then naturally everything will be fine.

In terms of the choice of helmet, Cao Ang originally planned to use a helmet with a face covering, leaving only two eyes.However, limited by the manufacturing process, the ability to shoot arrows and resist blunt blows is not too strong, so after Wang Yong's suggestion, I finally chose this felt hat style.Naturally, this infantry was also called the White Soldier.

"My lord, the felt hats on their heads seem to be anti-arrows! I don't know what kind of fabric it is!" The sent commander came back with a look of hell.What kind of fabric is so good that it can prevent arrows? If possible, he would like a set of armor made of this fabric, which is better than leather armor!

"Bows and arrows don't work, what about your scimitar?" Liu Bao scolded angrily. Just because the opponent resisted shooting, you are afraid of the opponent?
"It's not easy for our soldiers to get close to each other. The crossbowmen and archers on the city wall are covering them!" The commander said aggrievedly. If they approached, they would directly enter the range of the bows and arrows, from top to bottom. Shooting, and shooting from the bottom up are two concepts.

Even if their archers can hit every shot, they have to be within the effective killing range to shoot, right? !
"Our warriors, are they afraid of the enemy's arrows?" Liu Bao retorted.

"Your Majesty, most of our subordinates are women!" The commander replied helplessly. He was the worst, with more than 1000 men under his command, only a dozen male soldiers, trembling among a large number of women.

"Then tell them, as long as these strong men with white felt hats in front of you are captured by them, they will dispose of them at will! You are the commander-in-chief, so you need to use your brain more!" Liu Bao really had a headache. Has the year been cursed?Why are there more women than men?
"Oh, yes, the little one will inform you immediately!" The commander finally understood, and immediately went back to inform.

As expected, after receiving this guarantee, the group of tigress really exploded into battle...

　Today's is indeed a bit slower, and there may be only two updates, please forgive me.The new book has not come to the station section, and the whole person is full of ups and downs...
