Chapter 953: Roasted Meat
The heavy armored cavalry of the Khitans had obviously accelerated their charge, and was about to enter the firing range of the divine arm crossbow, and there were still more than 1,000 old and young women and children outside the camp, staggering to escape.
Some women and old people, who really couldn't run, collapsed to the ground in despair, using the last strength of their two hands to crawl with all their might.
In an instant, they were trampled into pulp by the Khitan ironclad cavalry, and their hope of life was completely cut off.
No matter how much propaganda is on the mouth, it is not as good as the tragic reality at this moment, and it can educate the soldiers of Li Jiajun more.
Liao Shanhe heard the strange sound of grinding his teeth around him, he couldn't help nodding secretly, what the lord said was right, words are not as good as example, and teaching by example is not as good as personal experience.
The soldiers were completely enraged by the brutal and vicious acts of the Khitans, and the originally inaudible breathing sound on Liao Shanhe's side turned into a sea of anger that was constantly panting.
The military heart is available, Liao Shanhe nodded secretly, the bloody killing of foreign races not only did not intimidate everyone, but aroused the hatred of the same enemy.
Opening the wall and letting people in is actually a risky move. However, the Khitans slaughtered the people of the Han Dynasty again and again, which completely angered the soldiers of the Li family.
Li Jiajun, who was continuously nurtured by Li Zhongyi's Hanist thoughts, must take this risk, otherwise, it will be difficult to bring the team in the future!
In the end, more than 300 women and children, old and young, all fell under the iron hooves of the Khitans, and the Khitan heavy armor led by them rode carefully and steadily in the Yelu flower mold, waved the steel knife in his hand, pointed to the gap in the camp wall that was not blocked, and howled hysterically: "Kill it, chop the Han dog Nanbarian into meat sauce......
Yelu Huamo took the lead, urging the handsome Dawan horse under his crotch, as if a gust of wind, to pounce on the gap.
Five hundred steps, three hundred steps, two hundred steps, Liao Shanhe, who was in charge of the front line command, never issued an order to release arrows.
The soldiers of the Li Family's bow and crossbow battalion are all veterans, and the latest among them to join was three years ago.
The duty of a soldier is: absolute obedience!
The order that you must not be good at attacking without military orders has penetrated into the bone marrow of every soldier of the Li Jiajun. Even if the Khitans have rushed to the tip of the nose, as long as there is no order from the Shangguan, the soldiers would rather be killed than act rashly.
It is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as aggressive as fire, and as immobile as a mountain!
In Li Zhongyi's monoculars, the soldiers he trained single-handedly had no fear on their faces, as if the other party's ferocious Khitans were just the air blowing by the breeze.
The crossbow has been wound, the arrow is in the track, Li Zhongyi looked very carefully, the soldiers clenched the big hands of the crossbow arm, strong and powerful, even the high raised green tendons, can be clearly distinguished.
"Master, why didn't Liao Shanhe order the launch?" Zhu Niang, who has been standing by the side, has long put her personal life and death aside, but the man is by her side, she really can't hold back her worry, and asks in a low voice.
Li Zhongyi raised the corners of his mouth, smiled slightly, and explained: "No matter how rich the Khitans are, if one heavy armored cavalry dies, there will be one less set of heavy armor, especially horse armor. The best distance for our army's god arm crossbow to break heavy armor is actually not far, only a hundred steps, that is, I told you before, it is only about one hundred and fifty meters. Lao Liao has been in battle for a long time, so he naturally knows this, he obviously wants to teach the heavy armored cavalry of the Khitan people a big lesson, a fatal blow that is so heavy that it is a nightmare. ”
In order to avoid confusion in the unit of measurement, Li Jiajun's latest unit for calculating distance has been taking the "step" that has been used in previous dynasties, and one step is about 1.536 meters.
Meter, this new unit of measurement, was not commonly implemented in the Li family's army. This is just a brand new concept that Li Zhongyi leaked to the concubines when he inadvertently laughed.
At that time, Li Zhongyi said that casually, but I didn't expect that Zhu Niang remembered it.
The bow and crossbow battalion in the Li family army is generally equipped with two kinds of arrows, one is the carved arrow to deal with the light cavalry army, and the other is the armor-piercing arrow of the special arrow.
The eagle feather is actually the common feather arrow of the Great Zhou Forbidden Army, which is very common and not worth mentioning. The arrowhead of the armor-piercing arrow is cast from 100 refined steel, and after repeated tests, it can break the specially made Mingguang armor worn by Li Zhongyi within 100 steps.
This charge, which was full of five thousand heavily armored cavalry, accelerated markedly after reaching a distance of three hundred paces. For a while, the smoke and dust were billowing, the hooves were like thunder, the momentum was violent, and the sound was shocking!
"Put up a horse rejection array, sprinkle it with thistles, and drag the cart back to its original position......"
When the Khitans crossed the reference line of 500 steps, Liao Shanhe put down the monoculars and decisively issued a series of military orders.
Li Jiajun had never fought with the heavy cavalry before, and out of prudent consideration, it was imperative for Liao Shanhe to rebuild the fortifications!
Yelu Huamo stared at the Li family's army camp that was getting closer and closer, and showed a cruel grin, he waved the long knife in his hand, and let out a beastly howl hysterically: "Kill in, kill in, slaughter the southern barbarians, and rob them of their gold and silver treasures......"
In fact, in the galloping of thousands of horses, even the close relatives could not hear the content of Yeluhua's howl.
However, the heavy armored cavalry has been training and fighting under Yelu Huamo's men, and the tacit understanding between them makes the subordinates subconsciously howl along.
"Chop the Light of the Southern Barbarians......"
"Robbing the little lady ......"
"Money-grabbing ......"
All kinds of beast-like howls, one after another, varied, once invincible Khitan heavy armored iron horsemen, morale like a rainbow, high morale!
The heavy armored cavalry unit of the Khitan people is an important branch of the leather room army, and it does have the capital to be proud of. Prior to this battle, they had maintained a winning record without losing a single battle.
Yelu Huamo was urging the horses to gallop, and it was a little strange at the same time, Li Zhongyi knew the power of the Great Khitan Iron Cavalry, how could he dare to tear down the camp wall and let those even more lowly southern barbarians into the camp?
Because he is the heart and center of Yelu Hugo, Yelu Huamo knows the inside story better than ordinary people, and among the southern barbarians who were driven to be cannon fodder, there are many Great Khitan fine works.
Yelu Hugo calculated everything, Li Zhongyi let people into the camp, and the meticulous workers would definitely cause civil strife, which would eventually lead to Li Zhongyi's defeat.
If Li Zhongyi didn't let people into the camp, the meticulous workers would just be an idle move, even if they were all trampled into meat by horses' hooves, there would be no pity.
If the cunning Southern Barbarian dies, there will be one less scourge, anyway, Yelu Hugo has a deadly hand to shake the heart of the Southern Barbarian army.
Yelu Huamo opened the sharp arrow formation, like a sharp arrow that had been detached, and slammed into the range of the divine arm crossbow.
Liao Shanhe's eyes did not leave the monoculars, and he calmly ordered: "The bow and crossbow battalion is ready to shoot, at a forty-five degree angle, and five sections of fire." Every 10 rounds, the front row is changed to the back row, and the enemy is not allowed to stop firing. Ordered the artillery battalion to prepare for launch, put on cocktail shells, and told them to get as close as possible to the Khitan dog thieves before firing cocktails. Today, we are the cooks, and the Khitan dog is the beast meat on the shelf. ”
"Whoa." The heralds beside him repeated Liao Shanhe's order loudly, and then slapped their horses around to give the order.
