Chapter 524: The Tangut People Were Frightened by Their Brain Hole (First Update)
Chapter 524
"Why don't you go to rest, are you going to sleep with Wang?" Wang Yang couldn't help but roll his eyes and complained maliciously.
Marchand shuddered involuntarily, and his head shook rapidly. "Lord Wang, don't be kidding, okay? Our family is a little worried, in case those Western Xia barbarian armies come from here, with our manpower, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop it, right? ”
Wang Yang touched his chin and looked at Ma Shang, who looked like a victim of a severe patient with paranoia, and shrugged his shoulders helplessly. It took a long time to flicker, and then the timid horse prison army was calmed down.
Early the next morning, Wang Yang climbed the mountain beam next to the valley with difficulty, and looked from afar, the entire valley that had been yellowed by autumn on both sides looked so tall and majestic.
Moreover, the primeval forests on the mountains are dense, and the valleys are wide and narrow, which is not suitable for a large number of soldiers and horses to fight here, according to the previous inferences and calculations repeated with Zhe Keshi, the main force of the Western Xia army will definitely go north through Suyuan Village, even if there is a wall to block it, they will not give up.
And this trail, it is very likely that when the opponent cannot attack the walled wall for a long time, a partial division will be sent to the north through this place, and find a way to copy the back road of the Suyuan defense line.
What is needed now is to build a defense line here as much as possible, even if it is not as good as the defense line of Suzhai, but with the terrain where it is almost impossible for the enemy to surprise and charge on a large scale, with these 500 yuan Yu armor soldiers, 1,000 border troops and 1,000 village warriors, they can also be garrisoned.
In addition, those young and strong people were originally roadside people in Shaanxi, and many of them had also been trained in the ranks of the village warriors, so the additional 500 Yuan You crossbows that were distributed could also pick out another 500 shooters from the young and strong to strengthen long-range attacks.
And this line of defense set up by Wang Yang blocked almost all the forks in the valley. But the problem is that on the west side, there is also a trail that goes up the ridge.
The road was not wide, and it was also very rugged and difficult to navigate, but just in case, Wang Yang decided to send fifty villagers to go.
Wang Yang entrusted this important task to Wu Qilang and Ling Zong, two restless guys. "Remember, when you get there, dig more traps, make more horses, in short, use all your cruel and vicious methods, and by the way, let those villagers use all their methods of hunting beasts."
"Even if there is only one Tangut person passing through this trail, you have to try to stop it for me, if there are fewer people, just catch a few more alive, prisoners of war are worth more than dead ones......"
"But if no one passes over there, won't our brothers be busy in vain?" Wu Qilang scratched his ears and cheeks.
"Don't worry, can't you two still trust me?" Wang Yang's eyes bulged, and these two guys were directly stunned. After Wang Yang's persuasion, Wu Qilang and Ling Zong led fifty villagers away with resentment.
Although there was a lack of stone here, Wang Yang had the foresight to inquire in advance, so among the five hundred partial vans, in addition to most of them used to transport and equip defensive weapons such as arrows, thirty cars of stones were also loaded, although it was not much, but it was better than nothing.
Just when the construction of this new defense line was in full swing, Xiao Lianghou under Huanzhou City once again saw Ye Li Luo, who led the soldiers and horses of the Yeli family to try to confront the reinforcements of the Great Song Dynasty.
Yeliaro, with more than 700 of the best Yelijia cavalry, exchanged for the safe retreat of the large army. Even compared to the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Yeli family, the number of seven hundred and thirty-seven people is not much, but the problem is that they are all the most elite warriors of the Yeli family.
The most elite cavalry could only watch them die under the Song army's incomparable crossbows and spears. If he hadn't made a quick decision, ordered the army to retreat on its own initiative, and left all the cavalry to roam and break off, blocking the Song cavalry's intention to assault, it is very likely that the casualties would have been greater.
"Their armor is very fine, and I even saw the cavalry of the Song army, wearing a kind of cavalry whose whole body was wrapped in large pieces of solid armor, and the whole person seemed to be made of copper and iron."
"Before, Weichen thought that it was just the armor specially created by the Song people for their generals, but I didn't expect that there were thousands of horsemen there, all dressed like this, and the elite cavalry of the Yeli family, the biggest loss was lost in the confrontation with those Song cavalry."
"You mean, it's the kind of armor that we can occasionally see in this Huanzhou city, and the whole body is wrapped like an iron bucket?" Liang Yiqi couldn't help but be moved.
How is this special, how is this special, you must know that the Xixia people are most proud of not only the courage and good fighting of the Xixia warriors. At the same time, there are also Tangut people who have a unique armor forging technique.
Xixia Qizijia, not to mention in the Western Xia, even if it is on the side of the Song people or the Liao people, they are all famous. Every year, the Tangut people would pay a small amount of tribute to the Liao State.
And the emperors of Da Liao liked it very much, and often gave it to those meritorious generals. Whether it is the Northern Liao or the Song State, even if the number of troops far exceeds that of the Western Xia, however, when it comes to the strength of the army, the Western Xia should be the leader.
However, when attacking the battle of Huanzhou City these days, it was found that among the Song troops defending the city, there were some Song troops wrapped in dazzling iron plate-like armor with silver light.
The armor of these Song troops is extremely strong, and sharp weapons such as swords and bows and arrows have no way to cause any damage to them, even if they are heavy weapons, as long as they are not smashed on the vital point, the opponent can still jump up and down, and move flexibly to kill and injure the heroic Western Xia warriors.
You must know that the elite division of Western Xia who can wear the armor of the Western Xia has been frugal for more than 100 years since the founding of the country, and now it has only made up 13,000 numbers.
And the Song army in those iron plate-like armor above the city, although the number is not very large, but at least there are more than 100, originally thought that it was just a new type of iron armor of the Song army worn by the generals and leading officers of the Song army.
But now, after hearing the words of Ye Liaro, who was like a mourning woman, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
"Among the 10,000 forwards alone, there are 1,000 such cavalry, if the Song army's army is united......" Wei Mingji said something terrible.
Even if the 10,000 Song army is only equipped with 1,000 such plate-shaped cavalry, but the opponent's strength is 60,000, Nima, the biggest reliance and reliance of the Western Xia army, is the 3,000 precious heavy cavalry iron harriers wearing heavy armor horse armor, but the other party has made a more awesome plate-armored cavalry.
Even if the strength of the armor of the two sides is almost the same, if they are dragged under the city of Huanzhou by the Song army, the Song army on all sides will come to help. The 100,000 troops of Western Xia are afraid that they will be cold directly......
Well, the Tanguts were already frightened by their own brains......
