Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

One day later, Guo Shao didn't sleep well at night.

Early the next morning, the light outside the tent was dim and foggy, and the weather should not change. Those fogs were formed last night.

"Your Majesty, I will give you hot water at the end." Lu Chengyong said behind him.

"No need." Guo Shao withdrew his gaze from outside the tent, lowered his head, and poured the cold water on his face with both hands. Exhaling a breath, he continued to wash his face with cold water.

His mind seemed to be a little clearer. He clearly saw the blue veins and pores on his arm, and the water drops on the copper-colored skin. When he straightened up, a soldier next to him handed a cotton towel over, and Guo Shao wiped his face and arms casually.

"Sha Sha Sha..." An attendant was grinding ink. Neat footsteps sounded outside the account, two rows of armored soldiers walked outside, and the two young generals handed over the talisman step by step.

Guo Shao dropped the towel, walked to the wooden table and sat down, picked up the brush and dipped it back and forth in the inkstone, quickly drew a skewed right triangle on the paper, and then drew a vertical line in the middle.

This vertical line is like the height of the city wall of Youzhou City. One right-angled side is the observation tower, and the other side is the ground distance from the observation tower to the trebuchet positions in the city.

The vertical line (city wall) divides the large right triangle 9≤ into two similar triangles, one large and one small. Similar edges are proportional. Junior high school geometry knowledge is very simple to estimate; at least for Guo Shao.

If you want to build some watchtowers where you can see the catapult position...First of all, the nearest position is 200 steps away from the wall (approximately 300 meters). If it is too close, there may be heavy defense weapons such as catapults and ballistas. It will become a fixed living target within its range. Secondly, the city wall is three feet high (about ten meters). According to the ratio of the length of the triangle, if the observation tower is up to six feet high, you can only see the scenery inside the city 200 steps away from the city wall.

It also proved that it was impossible for the watchtower to see the ordnance position in the city... It was impossible for the Liao army to place the catapult two hundred steps away from the city wall, so that they could only hit their own people.

At this moment, the horn of "Woo...Woo..." sounded in the air, varying in length, and the tone was very dull and monotonous.

Guo Shao raised his head and put down his writing brush, and looked up at the degree of light outside. The sky is bright, but it seems that it will take some time before the sun rises.

An attendant wearing a cloth and hair bun entered inside and said, "Your Majesty, breakfast is ready."

"I gargle first, then eat." Guo Shao breathed smoothly.

The sound of the off-book horn will distract people, making Guo Shao feel a little irritable; and that is a signal of preparation for war, and will accelerate the sense of urgency. But he still didn't panic and ate breakfast while riding a horse like some ministers in Tokyo did.

It's just that his movements are obviously faster, fast and not chaotic.

In Guo Shao's heart, he has always believed that everything is composed of atoms and molecules and other particles. Such a concept will hint to him: Keep habit of small things, and big things are still under control.

He packed it up, Shun Shun picked up a gold-rimmed dagger with a scabbard and hung it on his waist, then held it to a convenient position. Several attendants in the account bend down to bow to Guo Shao.

The sun has risen to the east, and it is still sunny today. But the residual smoke above the camp made the sun look dim and unclear, as if a haze enveloped the sun.

Just like Guo Shao's mood, things really didn't go well.

Walking out of the tent, the line of sight is wide. There are knights running outside the camp. A large number of soldiers are preparing weapons and weapons in the camp. Some craftsmen are constructing weapons in the camp. The saws make a noise.

As soon as he walked out of the army's big tent, when Jing Niang came hurriedly, Guo Shao slowed down and waited.

Jingniang looked back and forth, and silently handed a torn envelope to Guo Shao's hand.

The secret post of Bingcao Si has found a large number of Liao army cavalry between Tanzhou (Miyun) and Shunzhou. Guo Shao pondered slightly, and thought: As expected, the Liao Army was still the nearest Gubeikou to walk.

Entering the Great Account of the Chinese Army, a number of civil servants and generals were already waiting there, and they all got up and saluted when they saw Guo Shao.

Guo Shao strode to the upper position and sat down. Wang Pu immediately clasped his fists and said: "There is one thing that the old minister needs to report first. Last night, several tunnels leaked water, so they can only be abandoned and choose another place."

Guo Shao frowned and said, "Why is the water leaking now?"

As soon as Zhou Jun arrived in Youzhou City, he chose a location and started digging tunnels when he started to build the fortifications... .

Wang Pu said: "The groundwater in Youzhou seems to be of varying depths. Although we have dug wells to test the depths, as we progressed, water still seeps."

After hearing this, Guo Shao said: "Choose the location again, and I will go to the site to check it later."

Wang Pu asked again: "Last night the Chinese military discussed the construction of the watchtower. Can the former camp military mansion be arranged?"

Guo Shao felt that repairing the watchtower was of little use... but it was not completely useless. At a high place, it was easier to estimate the enemy's catapult position from the projected stones. Moreover, the Chinese military immediately came up with a countermeasure, which can also stabilize the military's morale.

As for the way to fill the river and siege the city, even if there are more casualties than before, we can't stop!

Time is tight, and the first batch of reinforcements from the Liao Army has entered Hebei. Guo Shao took out the Bing Cao Si's memorial report and handed it to Wang Pu, and decreed that he should be familiar with the ministries as the situation in the Tang report.

After a brief discussion, Guo Shao ordered the first drum to be played in the Chinese Army. The military government also dispatched soldiers to convey military orders to various places.

In the rumble of drums, the felt covering the artillery was lifted, and the soldiers in a line moved forward slowly. On the ground outside the city of Youzhou, it was running like a huge machine.

...

To the northeast of the Wenyu River, the Seventh-Eight Cavalry Zhoujun Qingqi wandered slowly along a small stream, following another horseman on the opposite side. Zhou Jun's light cavalry was only a horse without heavy armor, but it was also equipped with leather armor; the cavalry was equipped with a new plate armor... Cavalry who only had horses without iron armor belonged to the light cavalry.

The horse team on the opposite side of the creek is more than ten cavalry horsemen. The two sides neither acted rashly nor ran.

Zhou Jun led a ten general. This was the first time he encountered the Liao army cavalry after wandering around for many days, so he did not leave immediately. The two sides watched each other not far and close, about a hundred steps away, and they didn't speak loudly, as if they were all guessing at each other's attempts.

The stream is neither wide nor deep, but there are half people deep, which will definitely affect the charging speed. There are still many rocks in the stream.

The killing power of a skilled cavalryman is more than 20 steps, and the body is not as easy to borrow force on the horse as it is on the ground. So this distance is very subtle, and there is no immediate conflict, but every move of the opponent can be clearly seen.

Some of the soldiers held bows and arrows, and some held knives|guns, watching nervously and slowly riding a horse.

At this moment, I suddenly saw a small group of horsemen slowly approaching in the northwest. In the sun, the plate armor reflects light, and you can see Zhou soldiers.

The morale of Zhou Jun's side was immediately boosted, and they were swaying to try.

"Don't worry, look at it." The ten generals watched the path and distance of his own person, took out a horizontal blow, whispered and played an unpleasant sound.

The opposing Liao army looked sideways, looking at the creek and the horse team in the northwest.

The atmosphere suddenly became tighter, and the ten generals of Zhou Jun immediately stopped the horizontal blow, carefully drew the arrow from the quiver, and said in a deep voice: "Brothers pay attention, they turn around and rush immediately!"

He took a look, and the two sides were walking on a beach. This section of the stream is extremely short, not deep, but very flat and spacious.

"ready!"

Unexpectedly, there was a scream from the other side, and suddenly he turned his horse's head to charge here! The Ten General was right, the Liao Army Rangers did not run, but rushed over.

Sergeant Zhou slapped the horses "drivingly" and rushed forward, and the ten generals no longer hesitated, shouting, "Kill!"

The horse speeded up, the horse ran very fast, and soon stepped into the stream.

The white waves splashed suddenly, and the ten generals widened his eyes, his whole body tensed, and quickly pulled the bowstring, aimed at the front Liao army cavalry, "Bang!" It hit the target, but the opponent did not fall, the distance was still a little far away, and the arrow shot on the opponent's armor.

After a while, the strings snapped and rattled. The arrow hit Zhou Jun's plate armor with a clanging noise.

Without a word, the ten general hurriedly closed the bow, and drew a slender saber from his back. The cry of killing suddenly roared.

"Clang!" The ten generals saw sparks flashing in front of them, and their swords collided, making the tiger's mouth numb. The blade blew.

Immediately there was a scream, a Liao army cavalry smashed a Zhou army's shoulder with a bronze bone (a blunt weapon), and the sergeant Zhou fell off his horse. The two sides interspersed and rushed through each other, and the sound of framed blows sounded from time to time.

A Zhou army knight used a horse to stab the Liao army cavalry with a | I tried my best, but I didn’t fall right away, and I sat back on the saddle very flexibly~www.readwn.com~! "A scream. The ten generals flashed past Yiqi, seized the exact timing to shoot out, hit a Liao army, and then rushed through, leaving only the blood on the knife edge flying in the wind.

Soon the two armies crossed past, and the rest of the Zhou army hurriedly stabilized the horse forward, stopped and turned the horse's head. The ten generals hurriedly took a look, and they lost their three riders in a confrontation. They were all injured and sacked, and they were still struggling in the stream. Eight riders broke a small half at once, while the Liao army was only hacked to death and injured.

The Liao army has doubled its own.

"Longlong..." The Seventh or Eighth Cavalry Zhou Army to the northwest accelerated their reinforcements. The ten generals turned his head and glanced quickly.

Someone hurriedly said: "Wait for the reinforcements to come again!"

Ten generals looked at the three cavalry wounded in the stream, the Liao army had already turned around and began to charge again.

The ten generals anxiously said: "If you leave now, the three brothers will be hacked to death first!" There is no time to weigh before the battle, the ten generals shouted: "Kill!"
