Shi Meng led people to hoist a hundred ballista carts onto the crossbow tower that was hurriedly erected.

A hundred crossbow towers stood in the small camp, and the crossbows on the towers were already twisted and loaded. The three large crossbows on the three-gun crossbow are ready to fire, and the larger seven-gun crossbow is still turning the winch with several crossbowmen.

Qi Guoyuan carried his bow to inspect the camp wall, and the more he looked at it, the more frowning he became.

"General, we still haven't prepared enough. The walled wall is only heavy, although a defensive wall is built with a baggage truck and a grain cart behind, but it is still too weak. A circle of trenches should be dug outside the camp, and it is best to erect a row of horse-resisting piles on both sides of the ditch. ”

"In the trench there are some sharp stakes to be driven in, and finally, within fifty steps before the trench, sprinkle more thistles, plant some antlers, and dig some traps."

Luo Cheng patted the big fat man.

smiled and comforted him, "Captain Qi, although this is the first time that our group of men and horses has fought with the Goguryeo, it is actually not that good, so you don't have to worry too much." You should have encountered the Turks on the Nine Plains Fortress before, and if so, how did you deal with it? ”

"Oh, if our Jiuyuan soldiers encounter the Turks on the fortress." Qi Fatzi touched his head, "It depends on the number of the enemy and us, if the number is equal, then we will definitely have to chase the Turks, and finally seize the opportunity, we can't let the fat in our hands run away." ”

"If there are fewer Turks than us, then it is even more needless, basically chasing and chasing."

"What if you are less than the Turks?" Luo Cheng asked with a smile.

"Look at how much less, for example, we are only half of the Turks, then we must still fight, and we don't care about anything, even if we rush to kill. If we have fewer numbers, only a third, we can also fight. If only one-tenth of the Turks were needed, they would have to fight and retreat at this time. ”

Qi Fatzi asked, "Do you know the general Shangda, the head of Qichun County Gongda Xi Changru?" ”

"In the second year of the emperor's reign, the Turkic Shabalu Khan and his younger brother Yehu Khan, led more than 100,000 horses to the south to attack and plunder, and the imperial court appointed Daxi Changru as the head of the march. He took 2,000 men and horses to encounter the Turks, the number of the two sides was very different, but Daxi Changru was not afraid, impassioned, and inspired his subordinates with a heroic look, they were scattered by the Turks and gathered, and fought and left, and fought for three days, the sword was broken, the arrows were used up, so he used his fist as a weapon, and continued to fight with the Turks, many soldiers beat out the bones in their hands, and killed and wounded tens of thousands of Turks before and after. Eventually, the Turks lost their morale and failed to defeat the army. ”

"Da Xi Changru still led the army to defend a dangerous mountain, he was seriously injured in five places, pierced in two places, his soldiers, eight or nine times out of ten were killed, but they did not retreat or surrender. In the end, the Turks saw that the reinforcements of the Sui army were coming, so they had no choice but to burn the corpses, cry and leave. ”

When the fourth elder and the others heard this, they all exclaimed, "Zhuang, this county prince is really a god." ”

Two thousand battles of more than 100,000, as a result, tens of thousands of people could be killed and wounded, even if eighty or ninety percent of the battle was killed, but they did not fall, and in the end, the Turks had no choice but to withdraw.

In the words of Qi Fatzi, if it was their original Wuyuan border army, where two thousand people met three thousand horsemen, then there was nothing to worry about, and it would be over directly. But now it's not because these two thousand people are all new soldiers, a year ago they were all farmers, although they have also suppressed bandits, but among them, these 600 soldiers from Zhangqiu have fought, and the remaining 1,040 are mostly soldiers from the new military government this time.

He also brought 4,000 people, which is why he was so worried.

He was originally implicated and demoted, and now the main general Luo Cheng is the nephew of Luo Yi, the second general of the First Army, if something goes wrong, his life is estimated to be over.

"General Da Xi fought 100,000 against 100,000, although I Luo Cheng didn't have the ability, but 2,000 against 3,000 is still not false, not to mention that we have so many bows and crossbows, and we are guarding the camp to resist the enemy, so there is no need to be too afraid." Although Luo Cheng didn't think about going out of the camp to fight, he was not false in defending the camp.

If nothing else, those 100 winch crossbows, that's a big killer.

Moreover, his 2,000 soldiers and horses had 3,000 bows and 800 crossbows, and these alone were enough for the Goguryeo cavalry to drink a pot.

If there is no camp, Luo Cheng will still worry that he will not be able to exert the power that these weapons should have, but since there is a camp, he is still afraid of a bird.

Luo Cheng is now wishing that the Goguryeo people would launch a bloody charge, just so that this first regiment could see blood and win a battle and make a meritorious service.

Shixin carried his heavy lance and came to Luo Cheng's side.

"Brother, our Black Light Iron Rider can charge and counterattack at any time."

Luo Cheng just shook his head.

"It's not time for you to make a move, and when I really want to use you, I'll naturally give the order. Now, go back to your dreadnought camp, pacify your men, and continue to recuperate. ”

One hundred black light iron horses, this is the biggest trump card in Luo Cheng's hand, and Luo Cheng is reluctant to take it out easily until the critical time. This kind of thing belongs to the level of strategic nuclear weapons, and it is more of a deterrent, and it is too cost-effective to take it out and consume it casually.

"In today's battle, let's test everyone's bow shooting skills."

The first regiment now has a bow in his hand, and the bow and crossbow battalion even has two bows and a crossbow, and they are not short of arrows, and the two militia regiments carry a large amount of grain, grass, and baggage, of which there are 300,000 arrows, and on average, each person has 150 arrows, which is enough to fight several big battles.

Eight hundred crossbows, three thousand bows.

Luo Cheng planned to let the Goguryeo people have a good understanding of what war is. It's not that the light cavalry will defeat the infantry, although the three thousand light cavalry are strong, but if they really dare to attack this temporary camp, then they will have to understand the power of the Great Sui bow and crossbow.

The victory or defeat of a war is never a matter of quantity, nor is it a competition of troops.

There is no such thing as the strongest class, only a well-matched class.

The camp plus the bow and crossbow, the crossbowmen have the protection of the camp, especially the towering crossbow tower arrow tower, which makes this camp greatly increase the power of the bow and crossbow.

This is a giant crossbow position.

"Whew!"

The Goguryeo people on the opposite side were stationed a hundred steps outside the horse camp, looking very bold and arrogant.

At a distance of 100 paces, an average bow can kill.

Pointing at the camp for a while, the Goguryeo people also seemed to find that this camp was a bit unusual, they fought with the Sui army, and they were very familiar with the equipment of the Sui army, and they still understood the towering arrow towers in the camp.

"Old Five, shoot the fuck." The fourth child had no way to get out of the camp, so he could only jump up and down beside Luo Cheng. Seeing the arrogant appearance of those Goguryeo people riding on horses, he asked Luo Cheng to use a crossbow.

The maximum range of the crossbow is 700 steps, and the actual effective killing range is also 300 steps, of course, the accuracy of this range cannot be guaranteed.

But there are a hundred crossbows, no matter how accurate he is, shoot him first, who will let those Goguryeo people stand a hundred paces?

"What's the hurry, it's not easy to string the winch crossbow once." Luo Cheng shook his head and didn't agree.

The crossbow mounted on the crossbow tower is more powerful, as long as he gives an order, this round of salvo can at least carry hundreds of Goguryeo light horses.

But Luo Cheng didn't do that.

He just waited there quietly, waiting for the Goguryeo people to make the first move, which seemed to be afraid of the Goguryeo 3,000 light horsemen.

"The clouds are light and the wind is clear, and today is really a good weather." Luo Cheng said with a smile.
