Big Song Xiaohou Ye

Chapter 12 Turn the tide

Chapter 12 Turn the tide
Li Ce was thinking hard about the countermeasures. At this time, he discovered a great weakness of the Song Army, that is, the archers did not have a unified command when shooting arrows. Everyone saw that the Liao soldiers shot fiercely. The second one is out of order.The Liao soldiers often used the Song soldiers to finish shooting arrows, and then began to speed up the offensive before the next round started. In this way, after several rounds, the Liao soldiers gradually approached.

After Li Ce discovered this big loophole, he hurriedly shouted to Song Bing and a few hunters beside him: Everyone, listen to my command. The ten of us are divided into three groups, four or five people, and stand in three rows. , second row, third row, take turns to shoot arrows, the first row quickly retreats to prepare for the next round, the second row quickly moves forward and continues to shoot, and then the third row, and so on.

In fact, the tactic Li Ce mentioned only appeared in the late Ming Dynasty, and was first applied to muskets.

As soon as Li Ce finished speaking, there was Song Bing's objection. A burly black-faced general shouted: "Where did the poor come from? You little brat, what do you know about fighting? Everyone can't handle it together. Isn't it nonsense to divide it into three parts like this?!" As he spoke, he raised his hand, looking like he was about to slap him.

Li Ce hurriedly made a parrying posture, and shouted loudly: "It's useful, it's useful, you'll know it once you try it!" As he spoke, he organized the hunters into two rows, and the hunters were always led by Li Ce, and they trusted Li Ce. , Li Ce told everyone to listen to his orders and shoot arrows.

All the hunters bowed their bows and set up their arrows, ready to go. Seeing that the Liao soldiers had reached the bottom of the city and began to climb up, everyone was anxious, but Li Ce refused to give the order to release the arrows. The black-faced general finally couldn't help but cursed: "Boy! , nonsense!" After speaking, he was about to call the soldiers to come forward and shoot arrows to resist, at this time Li Ce waved his hand and shouted: "Let go!"

The four hunters in the first row immediately let go of their arrows, and there were only four arrows. The Liao soldiers' offensive was still fierce.

Then Li Ce asked the people who had just finished shooting the arrows to retreat quickly to prepare for the next one. Immediately afterwards, the second row of people stepped forward to shoot arrows to block, and then the first row again, and the eight people cooperated in a cycle like this.The Liao soldiers may have seen that the pressure has suddenly dropped at this time, and the offensive has become more violent, and they are about to climb up.

The battle situation was very critical, and the black-faced general cursed again, and was about to come up and kick Li Ce. Li Ce waved his hand to signal him to look down. After a few rounds, they were able to withstand the attack of the Liao soldiers below the city. The Liao soldiers were only half a foot away from climbing the city wall, but this half a foot seemed to be an insurmountable gap, and the Liao soldiers stopped abruptly. pace.

The Liao soldiers suddenly discovered that the Song soldiers' defensive strength here was weakened, so they tried their best to break through the defense here, regardless of casualties, but they still failed after tossing for a long time.

The black-faced general's complexion gradually improved. When he saw such a miraculous effect, he couldn't help being surprised and delighted. Without hesitation, he quickly organized the Song soldiers around him and handed them over to Li Ce to dispatch.

Soon Li Ce's array method borrowed from later war films played a great role. With the addition of more than a dozen Song troops, such simple and orderly shooting has caused countless casualties to the Liao army under the city here. , and the offensive of the Liao army is no longer as violent as before. After a few rounds, the offensive of the Liao army has basically been suppressed.

The miraculous change on Li Ce's side was quickly noticed by the general commanding in the middle. At some point, he had quietly come here and stood behind Li Ce.

After seeing what was going on, the commanding general stretched out his hand to pat Li Ce and said, "Young man."

Li Ce realized that someone was calling him, and turned his head.

"It's you?!"

"It's you?!"

The two said in unison.

"Haha, I didn't expect it to be you, oh, yes, a hero is born!" the general who commanded just now laughed.

Li Ce was also very surprised when he turned his head. Isn't this the old man fishing by the river? He turned out to be a general!And it seems that the official is not small.

"What's your name?"

"Oh, it's you, me, my name is Li Ce." Li Ce smiled sarcastically.

"Okay! Good boy!" The general turned around abruptly and said to the generals around him: "Go, you guys listen to Li Ce's orders, and spread this method to every place quickly, go!"

"Yes!" The four or five generals behind the middle-aged general rushed away.

Then the middle-aged general said to Li Ce: "Okay, Li Ce, you will lead these generals to set up the formation. After this battle, I will give you a table to ask for credit!"

Li Ce didn't think about making meritorious service or not, but seeing that the middle-aged general trusted him so much, coupled with the previous contact and the scene of watching him command just now, Li Ce decided that this person should be a good general, so he readily accepted the order and go.

Sure enough, after Li Ce led the generals to arrange the formation method, the casualties of the Song army on the city wall were greatly reduced, and the offensive of the Liao army gradually slowed down. Basically, there were very few Liao soldiers who could attack. On the wall.

At this time, the sky had already begun to light up. Li Ce roughly estimated that it was probably five o'clock, and the sky was about to dawn.

The leader of the Liao army this time was Yelu Wuchi, and he was extremely puzzled at this time, seeing that Zhending City was about to be breached, why was it suddenly blocked?Seeing that the sky is about to dawn, it has been some time since the Song Army's beacon warning, if I stay any longer, I am afraid that if the Song Army's reinforcements arrive, I will be outflanked. When the Song Army's reinforcements arrive, I will be in danger!

However, our own side has already paid such a large number of casualties, and we have obtained information in advance that the main force of the Song Army in Zhending Mansion is not in the city, so they have not captured the city by such a surprise, and they are really unwilling to leave like this!

After weighing again and again, Yelu Wuchi finally decided to order the withdrawal of troops, he did not dare to take this risk.

The Song army on the city cheered when they saw that the Liao army finally withdrew. Everyone was already prepared to die in the city.

Seeing that the Liao army had withdrawn, Li Ce couldn't help but sighed, and found a place to sit down, wanting to take a rest, only to realize that his arms were already exhausted as if they had collapsed.The battle was so tense just now, he had been bending his bow, shooting arrows and coordinating running around. When he took a break, he realized that all his strength had been exhausted, and he felt tired even sitting.

He simply lay down on his back. Li Ce looked at the gray sky, breathed the morning air, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. This long-lost feeling of fatigue seemed to have been experienced in the 1000-meter race in his previous life...

Lying on the ground, Li Ce lamented that his body was still too weak. Everything here depends on physical strength. Without the help of various means of transportation and machines developed in later generations, if he wants to survive sudden danger, he must exercise himself physique!Only when you are physically strong can you increase your chances of survival. A great man once said: "The body is the capital of the revolution. This is indeed a good statement. It seems that you have to continue to exercise your body when you go back." Come on, Li Ce fell asleep lying down in a daze...

Later, he was woken up by the cold. When he woke up, he realized that it was already dawn, and the sky was already bright. There were Song soldiers cleaning the battlefield everywhere inside and outside the city walls. Li Ce was so sleepy now that he just wanted to go home quickly. sleep.
