Yuan Shu attacked the Wuxuwu this time, and the vanguard army in front of it was the old army of the Sun family led by Sun Ben.

After Sun Jian died in Jingzhou, Sun Ce helped his coffin to return to his hometown to guard filial piety, and his cousin Sun Ben obeyed Yuan Shu's order and took over the position of Yuzhou Assassin History, temporarily taking charge of Sun Jian's army.

In the old department of the Sun family's army, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao and others still stayed here to help Sun Ben take charge of the army.

Among several people, Cheng Pu is the most old-fashioned.

As the shadow of the Whisker Dock got closer and closer, and Cheng Pu could vaguely see the heavily armed Jinling defenders on display, Cheng Pu squinted carefully for a while, and couldn't help but change his complexion suddenly.

He hurriedly reined in his horse and asked left and right in surprise: "How can the soldiers of the Tao family be all armored?" This kind of armament is really unheard of. ”

In the Han Dynasty, the most scarce thing was iron, and the most expensive thing was also iron.

Moreover, copper and iron things are not only lacking in the Han Dynasty, but also in the Xiongnu and Xianbei people.

It is much more valuable and practical than diamonds and gold.

Therefore, no matter which county or which state, among the town army of a place or assassin, those who are qualified to wear copper and iron armor can be worn, except for the high-level leaders of the army, only the elite soldiers of the Chinese army can wear it, and most of the ordinary soldiers can all wear cloth clothes and leather armor, which is a great creation.

The truth is so cruel, and the resources are so scarce.

At this moment, Cheng Pu fixed his eyes and saw that the soldiers of Jinling City, from generals to ordinary soldiers, were all covered in copper and iron armor......

It's just shocking! In the past, the Northern Army in Luoyang was able to wear armor with all its members, but I am afraid that there was no such treatment.

How much copper and iron does this have to be weighed to be made?

How could someone surnamed Tao be so rich?

Even if he was rich, where did he get so much copper and iron?

As everyone knows, as soon as the Ma'anshan iron mine opened, the potters did not lack copper and iron at all, not to mention wearing iron armor, that is, the population under his jurisdiction all used iron rice bowls, and the copper and iron owned by the potters were enough to supply.

When it comes to the number of soldiers, the potter is not necessarily the leader of the world.

When it comes to the population under his rule, the potters are not the best in the world now.

When it comes to the elite and good fighting degree of the soldiers under his command, the potters are not ranked.

But when it comes to the natural resources he has at present, and even the natural resources that the potters will have in the future, the Prince of Taiping is invincible in the world.

Seeing that the iron equipment of the Jinling army is now excellent, Cheng Pu was shocked!

No matter how brave Sun Jiajun is, he is also a step behind in equipment.

Moreover, in terms of armament, Yuan Shu gave Sun Jiajun the worst in his army.

Thinking of this, Cheng Pu hurriedly drove back to Sun Ben's side and admonished: "General, we can't fight this battle!" ”

Sun Ben had just replaced Sun Jian and became the leader of Sun's First Army, and he became the assassin of Yuzhou, which was the time when he was in high spirits.

This attack on Danyang County, this kid really has a little selfishness, he is trying to take this opportunity to show his face in front of Yuan Shu, in order to have a good future in the future.

As soon as he heard Cheng Pu's words, Sun Ben, who was anxious in his heart, was a little unhappy, he frowned and looked at Cheng Pu, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why can't you fight?" ”

Cheng Pu turned his hand and pointed to the Whisker Dock in the distance, and his tone was very eager: "The generals of Jinling, from top to bottom, are all wearing armor, this kind of military situation is really unheard of, and regardless of their combat strength, the weapons and armor of their soldiers alone are not comparable to us at all, once this battle starts, it must be a vicious battle!" The general replaced the late Sun Fujun in charge of the old department, and he should not act too radically, and the loss of a soldier was the loss of Sun Fujun's hard work when he was alive. ”

When Sun Ben heard this, he blew his beard angrily and glared.

This guy is too annoying to talk to, can't he look down on me?

He was eager to be famous at a young age, and said angrily: "I am in charge of the old department for my uncle and Bo Fu, and this battle is to promote the name of my Sun clan!" Revive the former majesty of the Sun clan of Wu County! I haven't had any private messages, my uncle has a spirit in the sky, and he will definitely be proud of my actions, you are just a military marquis under my uncle's command, how dare you talk about military aircraft here? General Yuan Gong's order has been issued, and it is inevitable for the army to attack Ke Wei Xuwu, and I retreat at this time, which is to violate the general's order, and I have no life after returning to the camp...... Babbling, don't retreat! ”

Cheng Pu was a little anxious: "General Sun, listen to me......"

"Get out of the way!" Sun Ben rode around the process, held the Ling flag high, and scolded: "Blow the horn!" Beat the drums! Formation! ”

Behind Sun Ben, a herald shouted: "There is an order to blow the horn!" Beat the drums! Formation! Formation! ”

Dozens of heralds passed the message to the military formation behind one after another, Sun Jiajun under the command of the military marquis of each department, began to change formation, a huge copper trumpet was lifted, pointed straight into the sky, making a "woo woo" sound, a burly drummer also climbed on the chariot carrying the big drum, exposed his arms and sleeves, and the thick arms burst into earthworm-like green tendons, each holding the two heavy drumsticks in his hands, and beating them down fiercely according to the war drums as big as the car cover.

"Knock, knock, knock, knock!"

With the thunder of the attack drums, the 20,000 Sun infantry began to rush towards the Whisker Dock at a rapid pace, dense as locusts, the turquoise grass was trampled in an instant, and the billowing smoke and dust swept up from behind the 20,000 Sun army, gradually rising higher and higher, trying to cover the entire sky.

In the rear army, Yuan Shu was on the big war chariot pulled by the two horses, wearing a bronze high-grade armor, the sword in his hand stood on the ground, and he stood on the car with a look of pointing at the country, squinting his eyes slightly, looking at the pole.

In the distance, the outline of the fortress is gradually becoming clearer, but I see that the fortress is built in a very proper position, choking the mouth of the mountain and water, right in the throat, and the flag fluttering in the sky above the fortress, as if it is waving its fist at itself.

On the fortress, the Jinling army was in full array, solemn and solemn.

Yuan Shu's eyes showed a bit of murderous intent, and he sneered while gritting his teeth and thinking, "Tao family child, dare to humiliate me like this? Today is your day of death! How long can this 100,000-strong army hold out with your more than 40,000 men and horses and a broken stone city? Later, I will step on your wet dock, and Yuan will personally cut off your dog's head! ”

Seeing that Yuan Jun, with Sun Jiajun as the front, was approaching rapidly, the potter took a deep breath, settled his mind, and commanded Chen Deng behind him: "Let's start." ”

Chen Deng indifferently returned the salute, and then said to the herald behind him: "Blow the horn!" ”

"Woo woo~~!"

Heaven and earth, the horn sound of Jinling City's characteristics is unique, although the sound is not the loudest, but because of the high quality of copper and iron, it can blow the thickest sound, the sound is very infectious, into people's hearts, as if it can burn all the blood of a man, making people's blood boil.

With the sound of Jinling Horn, the scorching killing intent began to vent out from the eyes of every Jinling soldier!

Xu Huang didn't play in front of the battle, he was standing at the head of the city at the moment, arranging the arrangement for the final blow, but his hands were itching, so he changed a routine and took the lead in another way!

Xu Gongming took an iron-tired bow from the hands of his soldiers, Xu Huang reversed the weight, and then bent the bow and arrows, aiming at a general who was riding a horse and rushing forward with the infantry soldiers in the enemy's army formation, and the five-stone strong bow slowly opened until it was like a full moon, and the sharp arrow had locked the fierce general in the Sun family's army!

In an instant, I suddenly saw Xu Huang's hand pulling the string loose!

With the "Whoosh! A whistle sounded, and the sharp bow and arrow were mixed with the huge force of the five-stone bow, and shot straight towards the general with a sharp scream, and the cold light flashed, only to hear a "poof"! It turned out to be penetrating the copper helmet and hitting the door of the general's head.

The general was none other than Sima Zumao, the army of the Sun family.

Zu Mao didn't even have time to snort, his body leaned back, and he fell off the horse directly, and died of anger.

The soldiers of the Sun family army beside Zu Mao were suddenly shocked.

At such a distance, there is such a penetrating power, which not only requires a strong bow, but also requires huge arm strength, and such a means is really terrifying!

And as Xu Huang's first arrow was fired, the soldiers on the Wet Whisker Dock Fort also began to draw their bows and arrows, and the big yellow crossbows also shot one after another, and countless bows and crossbows were like a flock of migratory birds that covered the sky and the sun, shooting towards the formation of the Sun family army at a very fast speed.

"Whoosh~"

"Whoosh~"

"Whoosh~"

Countless sharp arrows, like life-threatening yin and yang posts, were delivered to the hands of those pioneer soldiers one by one, one by one, and their lives and souls were snatched.

Huang Gai held an iron shield, shielding the rain of arrows while urging the soldiers of the Sun family's army.

"Up! All on! That Whisker Dock is just a city of stones, and there is no danger to defend! Avoid this rain of arrows, and when you get to the city, you can make a contribution! ”

Inspired by Huang Gai, the soldiers of the Sun family army struggled to break through the rain of arrows of the Jinling army, and continued to charge towards the wet dock with difficulty, although they continued to drop corpses and wounded along the way, but they did not stop their footsteps at all.

I thought that after rushing through the rain of arrows radiating from the Jinling army on the stone wall, the sunlight would shine on the Sun Jiajun, but they didn't know that what they were about to face was a deeper layer of darkness.

Waiting in front of them was the Chinese army of Jinling City.

At the forefront of the army in Jinling City were three terrifying armies like ghosts.

The 3,000 Tiger Guards led by Xu Chu.

Xu Rongdai Han Hao led the 3,000 Taishan army.

Two thousand Danyang soldiers led by Tao Ji.

The huge output of the Jinling Iron Mine is enough for the ordinary soldiers of the potters to wear armor, so how can the seven thousand most elite troops arm them?

The finest helmet.

The sharpest war knives, halberds, double halberds, large axes, long shuo and other weapons.

The heaviest armor.

Tao Gongzi is not short of iron, and he is not short of equipment!

He hated to arm these 8,000 people into future soldiers!

Pure heavy infantry!
