Chapter 398: The Battle of Northern Xinjiang III

Ashnamo struggled to explain why.

Coupled with Talmu's intercession on the side, although King Lu believed the reason a little, he still rode his horse to the front line with a slightly skeptical attitude.

King Lu and the dozen or so generals under his command looked at the dense arrows on the battlefield, and their scalps were also numb.

Ashina gasped: "Are the guards of Yingzhou City still arrogant, could it be that they can't be replaced, the tentative attack of five thousand people actually consumed nearly 40,000 arrows, and Zhang Qiang will definitely not be able to do such a crazy thing." ”

"King, the scouts of Yingzhou must have reported the news that we brought siege equipment to the guards, they must know that this will be a protracted battle, why is it still consuming the arrows in the city so much, could it be that he is crazy?"

"Yes, King, four arrows for one of our warriors, how many arrows are there in the treasury of Yingzhou City? It's only the first day, and the grain and grass provided by Emperor Jin are enough for us to fight for about two months, so the number of arrows consumed is not the defense of Yingzhou City planning to die and fight against the water? ”

"Look, the king, those six-foot or so crossbow arrows are also different from the previous crossbow arrows, at least about two feet long, the most terrifying thing is its penetrating power, the king looked to the left, directly penetrated the bodies of three war horses, this is unimaginable if it shoots into people's bodies."

Ashinamo looked at the corpses of the soldiers under his command with a gloomy face: "Chigutai, before you go to the army, ask who the Yingzhou City Guard is?" The king did not believe that arrogance could do such a self-destructive thing. ”

"Obey."

Chigutai rode his horse towards Yingzhou City, and slowly stopped: "This commander Chigutai, on the order of my king Ashinamo, came to inquire, is the general of Yingzhou the protector of the country, General Zhang?" ”

"Wait!"

A soldier leaned out from the walls and replied.

Zhan Cha Kung Fu arrogantly stood at the head of the city in military uniform: "Tell Ashinamo that the guard general of Yingzhou is still his old 'friend' General Long Wuwei arrogant."

Chigutai glanced at the arrogant eyes on the city wall and turned the horse's body.

"Wait a minute."

Chigutai grabbed the reins of his horse and looked back: "Let the King of Lulu send someone to collect the corpse." ”

Chigutai's face was red, and he galloped away with a horse's belly.

Ashinamo heard Chigutai's report and looked puzzled: "This arrogant person has never fought uncertain battles, why is it so different from the previous tactics today?" ”

"Great King, could it be arrogant and deliberately like this, wanting to rely on the power of thunder to scare us away, but in fact, it is a strong outsider, and there are not many arrows in the city at all?"

The Turks didn't know about this, and the general in Yingzhou City was pouring arrows urgently, and thousands of arrowheads were poured out every hour for the entire three hundred molds.

Although the watered arrowhead is not as wear-resistant and durable as the arrowhead that has been tempered, it cannot stop it from producing a lot.

It is precisely for this reason that Liu Dashao gave Zhang Qiang a so-called trick.

It's easy to build arrows, don't connect with the Turks if you don't have a short fight, don't connect with the Turks, the arrows don't have a mold we can make a dozen, but the lives of the soldiers are gone.

If you are poor, you will be strategically interspersed, and if you are rich, you will be covered by arrows.

Just like the Qin State at the beginning, a wave of arrow rain was routinely covered everywhere, and hundreds of thousands of arrows would not suffer a loss even if ten arrows shot a person, so why bother to fight each other with their lives.

Coupled with the advantages of the eight-bull crossbow, the range is the truth, and it will give the Turks a long-range strike before the bullets are exhausted, and they will never fight hard.

Liu Dashao has always been a life-sparing person, and it can be seen from his reluctance to contact officialdom at the beginning that he cherishes his life, and of course people who cherish his life do not want to see his compatriots die.

If the more than 40,000 arrows before only shot more than 3,000 enemies, the intestines of arrogance and regret could turn blue, but now it is different, in short, there are many arrows, and they are willful.

There are more arrows, and arrows are made faster and more willful.

Can't help Yingzhou, the other five cities will be the prisoners who are also rushing to make feather arrows day and night.

Ashnamo turned his horse: "Today is careless, officially siege shield soldiers cover, don't be as reckless as today." In addition, we must find a way to lure the arrogant people out of the city, otherwise our advantages will not be able to be brought into play. ”

"Collecting corpses?"

"Chigutai, you send someone to bring back the remains of the warriors."

Seeing thousands of bare-handed people coming from the Turkic camp, he arrogantly signaled to Ke Yan on the side: "Bring back the remains of the soldiers and bury them thickly." ”

"Yes."

"Zhong Ming, send someone to collect arrows, how much can be snatched back."

"Obey."

The most peaceful time after the battle between the two armies was when the corpses were collected, and although the winter was bitterly cold at the moment, it was not necessarily that the plague would not occur.

If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, once the plague is rampant, all people will have to die.

Therefore, people on both sides will strike their troops and make truces and arrange for the soldiers who died in battle first.

Zhang Mad looked at the corpses being moved away and sighed: "Ashinamo, the cold winter is cold, the green and yellow are not connected, the war horses are emaciated, and the soldiers are tired. At this time, the use of soldiers is definitely a taboo for soldiers, how much interest do you have to choose this time to start a war, is the gold and silver of the Jin Emperor not as good as the lives of soldiers? ”

The arrogant opinion is surprisingly consistent with Hu Yanyu, and King Lu and King Shi Bi are really short-sighted.

It is simply foolish to give up the army when the army is strong and the horse is strong, and choose to send troops when the army is not good, and the horse is thin.

However, his misfortune was the luck of the great dragon, and he had an absolute advantage in defending the city.
