Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 87 Attack Frustrated
At this time, Lu Longtian's begging army is like a complete machine. Its more than [-] soldiers have seven types of arms, including light cavalry, shield chariots, catapults, crossbowmen, ladders, spearmen, and swords and shields. Fully united.

Catapults and light cavalry are used for long-range suppression, shield vehicles are responsible for covering archers to follow up, soldiers carry ladders, and sword and shield soldiers are ready to ascend the city at any time.

It seems that the soldiers of the dead army were firmly suppressed by Lu Longqi's living army on the city wall, and they could not form an effective counterattack at all.Tian Luo and the soldiers of the Tian family army were not surprised by this.The Tian family in Lulong Town, Liaoxi County was once a local tycoon, owning tens of thousands of tenant farmers.In [-] A.D., the Murong tribe of Xianbei broke through and invaded the Central Plains, robbing countless treasures and tens of thousands of Han girls.Along the way, the Xianbei Murong troops massacred and used these girls as military rations, slaughtered and cooked them.When they arrived in Yishui, Yixian County, Hebei Province, there were only more than [-] Han girls left. The Murong tribe of Xianbei was invading at the time when the Yuwen tribe was invading. dragged down their marching speed.Murongxin didn't want to let go of these [-] Han girls, so he pushed them into Yishui and drowned them, and Yishui stopped flowing.

When the Xianbei Murong tribe plundered the Central Plains, the Lu Longtian family in western Liaoning joined tens of thousands of Han people to form a dock to protect themselves.Tianjiabao in Lulong Town is located at the southern foot of Yanshan Mountain. The terrain is narrow and unsuitable for large-scale deployment of troops. Therefore, Tian's begging army persisted in Lulong for more than [-] years and did not move south like other Han people.The ancestor of the Lu Longtian family can be traced back to the Cao Wei general Tian Yutian Guorang during the Three Kingdoms period.The real ancestor is Tian Pengzu, the son of Tian Yu.Tian Pengzu is the son of Tian Yu, who had been with Tian Yu in Youzhou, and Tian Yu was transferred to Nanyang, but Tian Pengzu could not go to Nanyang with Tian Yu because of his official position, so Tian Pengzu stayed Youzhou, working under Cao Zhang.Slowly spread the scattered leaves to form Lu Longtian's.

Tian's begging army has persisted under Lulong Xianbei's nose for more than 350 years, and has always been known for its ability to attack and defend well.In 20 A.D., Ran Min led an army to defeat 20 Xianbei Yan troops by the Lingshui River.Captured and beheaded more than 28 people from the Yan army, beheaded more than [-] generals and above, burned [-] grain platforms, and captured [-] cities in Xianbei Beiyan County.At that time, under the leadership of Tian Si, the [-] soldiers of Lu Longtian's begging army had been serving as Ran Min's pioneer.Even many of Tian Luo's generals were old men who followed Ran Min to conquer the city of Yan.For such a small city, Tian Luo and the generals of the Tian family army believed that they could easily take it down.

As the soldiers of the dead army were so suppressed that they could not raise their heads, the generals of the Tian family army who were carrying the ladder finally put the ladder on the city wall. At this time, Tian Luo and the generals of the Tian family army showed the joy of victory on their faces. The Immortal City (Gucheng is also a city) is already their spoils of war.

The No.1 soldier of the Tian Family Army who climbed the ladder is only one step away from the parapet.As the first warrior in the whole army, he is the first to break the city. In the future, after the battle, he will be rewarded, and he will be able to obtain three ranks of military merit.The Nine Turns of Military Merit is a military law jointly implemented by the begging army. The number of soldiers (including the number of soldiers and equipment) is equivalent to the "middle line", and the number of hits is "lower".Divided according to the results of the war: killing or capturing 40.00% of the enemy is "upper gain"; killing or capturing 20.00% of the enemy is "middle gain"; killing or capturing [-]% of the enemy is "lower gain". get".According to the pre-war conditions and the results of the war, the number of "revolutions" is drawn up.Going to the battle and winning at the top is five rotations; going to the battle and winning at the middle is four rotations; going to the battle and winning at the bottom is three rotations, and so on in descending order.

And because the strength of the begging army of each family is different, the rewards for the rank nine military merits are also different.Lu Longtian's three military exploits were given the name Xiaoqi.The treatment can be equal to a hundred generals.

For a soldier, the temptation to be promoted to a company-level officer in an instant is quite a temptation.One hundred people will lead two teams of more than one hundred soldiers, and as the leader of the army, there are quite a lot of benefits.Status, benefits, and money are all there.

One step away, just rush up the city wall and hold on.However, just as the Tian Family Army soldier leaned over the female wall, he heard Ji Kan shout: "The shield soldiers step forward and kill them all!"

After hearing the order from the drum, the soldiers holding the shields of the dead army stood up neatly, and saw the light of the sword flashing, and the head of the soldier of the Tian family army flew to the bottom of the city wall in a whirl following the light of the sword.The corpse that lost its head fell down the city wall like a kite with a broken string after ten breaths (the breath is about the same as the current second).By the way, five or six Tian Family Army soldiers who were climbing up under the ladder were also smashed down.

With the sound of the silent drum, the originally dead city wall instantly came to life.The sword and shield soldiers of the dead army are in the front, the spear and spear armors are in the second place, and the crossbowmen are in the latter place, forming an airtight defense line.The ring-headed knife flew up and down like a wheel, and the spear was swallowing letters from time to time like a poisonous snake.

The soldiers of the Tian family army who were attacking the city with ants were unlucky. They had just exposed half of their bodies.

Seeing this scene, Tian Luo yelled angrily: "Archers, let the arrows go, trebuchets, let them go!"

However, after a long time, the archers and trebuchets suppressed the troops remotely, and they all froze on the spot.

"You want to rebel?" Tian Luo raised the Zijin Hammer and shouted: "You disobeyed orders and didn't obey, do you really think that a certain knife can't kill you?"

Cavalry captain Jiang Fang stepped forward and said: "Young commander, our people are mixed with their dead army. It is easy to accidentally injure our own people by firing stone cannons and arrows!"

Although Lu Longtian's begging army prides itself on being brave, they are also good at attacking and defending.He is famous all over the world for being brave and not afraid of death.But it is still very difficult for them to rain arrows on their companions indiscriminately, and it may even provoke a mutiny; Tian Luo is silent, he is not a cruel, cruel and ruthless hero.He really couldn't give such an order.

At this time, whether it is the cavalry's recurve bow or the trebuchet, the accuracy makes people speechless and tearful.Even at a distance of fifty steps, riding a horse and shooting arrows can only hit a general direction. As for the god-level archers who can shoot their noses without hurting their eyes, there are more than 100 Qingqi soldiers in the entire Tian family army, and there are not many people who have such abilities. stunt.With a vertically fixed fifty-step target, Tian Jiajun archers can achieve [-]% seven out of ten arrows.There are hundreds of people who can hit ten arrows with ten arrows.However, when they shot at the moving target, they all gave up.

Seeing that they were unable to attack for a long time, the soldiers of Tian's army ascended the city gradually lost their confidence in victory.

"The teachers and soldiers are exhausted, and it will be useless to fight again!" Jiang Fang said: "Young commander, it is better to retreat, seek other methods, and fight when the opportunity arises!"

"Mingjin retreat!" Tian Luo helplessly issued an order that he least wanted to issue.But there is no way, the Tian family army has lost four to five hundred soldiers since the battle, and this ratio has already made the Tian family army miserable.
