Chapter 523: Master Builder on the Battlefield (Second Update)
Chapter 523
There was no need to touch it with his own hands, just by seeing it, Ye Liaro immediately thought of the kind of ironclad army that appeared at the head of Huanzhou City.
I heard the soldiers of the Yeli family say that this kind of ironclad army is not afraid of scimitars and bows and arrows at all, even if it is a heavy weapon such as a hammer, as long as it is not chopped at the vital point, it seems that it cannot cause damage to this kind of ironclad army.
And the other party is wearing such iron armor, not only does it look bulky, but it seems very flexible, relying on their strong armor, often breaking into those Western Xia warriors who rushed to the city, causing huge damage to the unprepared Western Xia warriors.
However, above the city of Huanzhou, there don't seem to be many such ironclad troops, but in front of him, there is a whole iron cavalry with thousands of horsemen.
Before everyone could react, this Yuan Yu armored cavalry had already taken the lead in striking towards the flank of the Western Xia cavalry that had begun to decay......
Seeing this scene, Yeliaro's eyes almost cracked, and he hissed and roared. "Blow the trumpet, get out, let them get out quickly, bastard, bastard!"
At this moment, Yeli Luo was indignant, he didn't know whether to scold that Xiao Liang and send himself over to send the warriors of the Yeli family to death, or whether he should scold the Song people for hiding such a big killing weapon.
Doesn't it mean that the armor-making technology of the Song people is not as good as that of the Western Xia? However, those iron can-like Song troops were already above the city of Huanzhou, and they proved the amazing defensive power of this iron barrel armor with their sturdiness.
And now, there are so many here, if in the future, the Song army is so strong armor, can the warriors of Western Xia still have a chance of winning in the battle with the Song people?
At this moment, Yeli Luo shook his head vigorously, he didn't dare to continue thinking about it, his most important task now was to try to take the warriors of the Yeli family away from this damn battlefield, bring them back to Huanzhou, and bring them back to Great Xia.

At this moment, on the west side of Maling, Wang Yang is wearing a stinky sweat, riding a horse and walking slowly on the road, speaking of which, the road here is indeed as winding as described by Fold Keshi, and the important thing is that in addition to the middle of the trampled flat road that is not more than two horses in parallel, the surrounding area seems so rugged.
But fortunately, in the case of two horses in parallel, not to mention the horses, even the partial van can pass smoothly, but what makes people speechless is that they can only advance slowly one by one, as long as the road in front of them stops slightly, the whole long line will be stuck as a whole like intestinal obstruction.
"We've been walking for a day and a half now, and we haven't arrived yet, so are we going to camp in such a place tonight?" Marchand, who hadn't rested all night before, rubbed his sore neck and looked at the winding road that went around the valley, very helplessly.
"It should be almost there, with the scouts sent by General Huang to lead the way, there will definitely be no problem." Wang Yang yawned loudly.
Marchand complained with a look of despair. "We have been tired for almost three days and three nights between Hongde Village and Suyuan Village, and I thought we could rest well, but as a result, we were actually brought to this place again, and we have to rebuild a wall, alas......"
"Rather than building this thing, would you rather face those hideous-looking, cruel and murderous Western Xia barbarians?" Wang Yang looked at the pony father-in-law in some surprise.
Hearing this, Ma Shang was directly stunned, and his head shook faster than a splashing drum. "Of course not, you can't say that, our family is a palace person who can't carry his hands and can't lift it, it's better to follow the champion to do what you can, as for fighting, killing, it's really not our family's forte."
After about two quarters of an hour, they finally heard the cheers coming from ahead, and Wang Yang and they rode their horses over a mountain beam, and finally saw the valley that divided into four branches.
"It's finally here, but then again, the width here is really not small......" Wang Yang looked at the valley about fifty zhang wide, and his mood couldn't be happier.
Another big problem is that it is no longer as rugged as the road it used to be, but rather a more open and gentle section.
#####
"What are you doing in a daze, brothers, let's start working, it's best to try to build a line of defense before those Western Xia barbarians arrive, hurry up, cut down the wood first, and make a batch of rejection horses here." After Wang Yang took a deep breath, he drank loudly.
"General Chen, first send more scouts, go to the front to investigate, send one person to report in an hour, if there are Xixia people entering this valley, they will withdraw immediately." Wang Yang commanded General Chen, who commanded a thousand border troops.
General Chen immediately took the order and walked away quickly, and soon, twenty scouts rode out and rode away towards the south. And the villagers who had been on the road for two days in a row, and the already tired villagers were young and strong, and at this moment, it was very likely that they would be stimulated by the Western Xia army, and began to pick up axes from those side vans and work hard to cut down trees and make horses.
When the first row of horses was tied up and blocked the cross-section of the entire valley, Wang Yang breathed a sigh of relief and ordered the whole army to camp and repair and bury the pot to make food.
After dinner, several generals gathered in Wang Yang's big tent, with a worried face and a low voice.
"Wang Jianjun, we are now, there are less than ten cars of Yuanyou cement left, and although there is no shortage of trees here, there is a lack of stones, how can this be good?"
Wang Yang rubbed his furrowed brows and said. "If I don't have stones, I can rely on dirt and logs, can I still conjure stones? Here, it is impossible to transport more stones from Hongdezhai to come, the road is too narrow......"
"When you built the walled fort in the past, didn't you build it without Yuanyou cement and masonry?" Wang Yang has inspected a lot of walled forts, and some of them are built with local materials and only made of logs and clay.
"Although it is not as strong as the use of masonry, but we are building a defensive line here, just in case, there is a Western Xia division to sneak attack our rear through this, not to mention that the other party really comes, it must be a light cavalry, and it will definitely not come from here with large siege equipment, so there is no need to worry too much."
Under Wang Yang's best to appease them, these guys finally stopped worrying, cheered up, and prepared to go back to have a good rest, and then build a large construction project the next day, striving to build a defense line made of clay and logs here.
Seeing these guys leaving with relieved smiles on their faces, Wang Yang also breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head, and saw the little pony looking at him with a blank eye.
