Chapter 400: The Retreating Barbarians
When Su Lu received the news of the defeat of the Tang army, he was discussing the deployment of ballistas with Zhang Gan at the head of the city.
Taking the military newspaper from Ma Ping's hand, Su Lu glanced at it and frowned.
Xie Ruyu's soldiers were defeated in Tongde City, and he recklessly advanced, losing countless soldiers, and even Wei Huzi was trapped, and now his life and death are unknown.
Su Lu handed the military newspaper to the money that came in a hurry, and asked, "What do you think?" Xie Ruyu has always been cautious, how could he be careless this time? ”
Qian Buzhou read the military newspaper, and the whole person was not good, and said with an ugly face:
"Although the last general didn't know the situation at the time, but the Tang army was defeated and retreated day after day, it must have been seriously damaged, and the barbarian scout vanguard followed up, seeing that there were few people on the other side, Xie Ruyu moved the idea of annihilating the barbarians to boost morale, and there was nothing wrong with it."
Su Lu nodded, there was only one reason that could be thought of.
It's a pity, the barbarians are not the Qin army, their combat power is brilliant, even if it is a two-hundred-person scout vanguard, they can fight the Qin army's thousand-man team and retreat one after another, Xie Ruyu is wrong this time.
"The barbarian soldiers are divided into two roads, all the way to pursue the Tang Army, and go straight to the territory of Sanchong Jiedu Mansion, all the way to follow the retreat of our army, and the pursuit is up, and the Bingfeng points directly to the Double Buddha, what do you think?"
Su Lu pressed his hands on the city wall and looked into the misty distance, where the barbarian army was tirelessly coming, trying their best to eat.
Luo Du, who had just recovered from his injuries, spoke: "Commander, the barbarian army is in full swing, and it is not suitable for a head-on decisive battle, I think, for the sake of safety, we still have to defend the city and rely on the strong city to deal with the enemy." ”
Hua Xun also spoke: "What Luo Senjun said is very true, the barbarians are strong, neither the Black Flag Army nor the Xuanjia Army can be their front, and we don't have to do anything with them." ”
Su Lu commanded and said: "The scouts are all scattered, and they must find traces of the barbarians, and don't let the barbarian soldiers come to the city before discovering their soldiers." ”
"Prepare for war, the qiāng battalions of the army commanders are preparing for battle, preparing for a decisive battle with the barbarians under the city."
"The ballista artillery went up to the city and began to shoot at the city, and I want you to be in three days, where you can see under the city, where to point, and where to hit."
The generals agreed and ordered to go down the city wall.
Zhang Gan asked Su Lu beside him: "Mountain Chief, if you want to learn where to fight, just three days is not enough." ”
Su Lu said casually: "It's enough to fight more, practice more, and naturally know how to fight." ”
Lu Zhan next to him asked: "Commander, why don't you transfer the Flying Bird Battalion over, there is the Flying Bird Battalion, even if our army is not as strong as the combat strength, there is also the Flying Bird Battalion to deal with it." ”
Next to him, Ma Ping said: "The armies of this Xiting are all strong armies under the command of the commander, and the long qiāng array is skillful, and it is only stronger than the Qin army, not weak, if we really fight, we are not afraid of barbarians." ”
Su Lu nodded, and instructed Zhang Gan next to him and said: "After this fight, I want you to write down your experience, how to adjust, how to aim at the enemy to the maximum, what angle to throw to, and how far you want to hit." ”
Zhang Gan's face was ugly, when he was studying in the lecture hall, he felt the same as the book of heaven when he read the textbooks, and he had to work hard to graduate from the lecture hall, and he was also the last few.
Writing textbooks, Zhang Gan didn't dare to think about such a thing before, and after listening to Su Lu's instructions, Zhang Gan only felt that one head was two big.
Five days later, the barbarians finally appeared on the mountain road not far outside the Twin Buddha City.
Most of the scouts withdrew to the city, and the four gates were also closed, and the city was full of flags and ballistas.
"Put"
Zhang Gan adjusted the angle and released the first crossbow with his own hands.
The crossbow arrow threw an arc, and then pierced into the barbarian group, immediately bringing a bloody rain, and a piece of flesh was instantly crushed out of the barbarians.
"Put"
Zhang Gan continued to command the ballista artillery to release the crossbow arrows, but this time the accuracy was much worse, and he failed to touch the side of the barbarian vanguard, and the bushes on the side of the road flew into the sky, nailing them to the trunk of a tree that could only be hugged by several people, making a buzzing sound.
The long qiāng soldiers and sword and shield soldiers rushed up the city wall in an orderly manner, and under the scolding of their own team commanders, they quickly found their positions and stood on the city wall.
"Listen, listen to my military orders later, let you stab and stab, just like the battle formation on weekdays, as long as nothing goes wrong, we can't lose."
"gǒu rì de leg shake a fart, how can Lao Tzu have such a cowardly soldier as you."
"Lift qiāng, prepare to lift qiāng, don't stagger your body, hold your hands tightly, who the fuck can't kill a barbarian, Lao Tzu turned around and asked him to carry qiāng a hundred times."
At the head of the city, everywhere was the shouting and scolding voices of the battalion officers and brigade commanders.
The barbarians moved quickly, and many of their companions died, but aroused their ferocity, and met the crossbow arrows of the ballista battalion, and rushed straight to the city walls.
After the three-way ballista, the barbarians rushed to the base of the city wall.
Zhang Gan raised the flag in his hand: "The ballista continues to attack the barbarian rear army, you must believe that the guards brothers can block the barbarians, don't be afraid, continue to load, aim." ”
Zhang Gan roared hoarsely, the panic and trembling in his tone were all gone, just a strong antibow artillery to appease the crossbow artilleryman and issue a military order.
This time, the barbarians did not carry siege equipment, and the dexterous barbarians bit the steel knives and rushed up through the cracks in the wall.
"Thorn"
As soon as the barbarians probed slightly, the brigade commanders shouted out the military order.
The sergeants subconsciously raised their heads forward, and the qiāng's head was mechanically pointed forward, pressing against the head of the barbarian.
"Puff Puff"
The qiāng cluster pierced into the human body, and the barbarians who climbed up to the city were picked off and fell from the city like dumplings.
At the head of the city, Su Lu chooses to use the level 3 long qiāng array card, and the target of action is the Han army at the head of the city.
The atmosphere of slaughter and tranquility unfolded at the head of the city, and the long qiāng soldier who was holding the robbery in his hand felt the power in his body, and the whole person became excited.
"Kill"
The battalion officers continued to scold their sergeants.
There was another popping sound, and the second wave of barbarians who had just climbed to the top of the city were once again picked off.
Under the city, in the barbarian array, a barbarian with big ears looked at the Han army at the head of the city, and his protruding eyes almost popped out.
It feels so familiar.
A knife chopped over a barbarian companion who was pulling his trouser leg next to him, and the big ear knocked his armor with a knife, and he made a noise.
At the head of the city, Qian Buzhou and Luo Du, who had just climbed up, turned pale.
The barbarians are screaming before they charge, and when the sound stops, the barbarians will attack, and they will attack twice or even three times more than before.
"Mobilize reserves to go to the city?"
Qian Buzhou reminded Su Lu and said, now that he is in the reserves, he can prepare in advance, and he will not be in a hurry at that time.
Luo Du also said: "Commander, the barbarians are powerful, our people are not necessarily opponents, it is better to bring the reserves up, so it is more ...... peace."
Luo Du, who was talking, looked at the barbarians not far away in a daze, his eyes as big as copper bells.
"The barbarians have retreated!"
Luo Du muttered to himself, an expression of disbelief on his face.
This slap in the face is too powerful, Lao Tzu just said that you are going to attack!
