Chapter 296: Soldiers Descend on the City
Wei Minglan sadly found that nine or eight times out of ten things were unsatisfactory, God deliberately went against him, and the weather was very, very, very good. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The sun is abundant, the air is fresh, and from a distance, the blue sky, white clouds, majestic mountains, and smart blue water are really pleasing to the eye. The occasional breeze blows, mixed with a few hints of fresh smell of the wilderness, and it will be refreshing.
Even the vast and poor land in the past, after being moistened by the rain, actually drilled a light green from the soil overnight, which is really surprising.
But Wei Minglan clearly saw the smoke and dust billowing in the distance, and the iron hooves of the Song army actually penetrated two hundred miles into the territory of the party, which was really hateful!
He shook his head, wanting to throw away all these unhappiness, since the soldiers are coming to the city today, let's go to the bottom first, we must be in good spirits.
I'm the king of the party's city defense, and no matter what weird birds or chariots you have, I'll take them all. Sixty ballistae are not counted, and I have specially prepared a thousand crossbowmen to shoot your strange birds, and see what kind of strange things you are doing.
A quarter of an hour, a quarter of an hour passed, and when two hours later, the queue of the Song army could already be seen at the head of the city, Wei Minglan finally drew a circle on the map.
Dragon's Whisker Lake!
This location is not very conspicuous in the entire eastern suburbs, but Wei Minglan believes that this must be the location where the planter Dao set up camp.
The water surface of Longxu Lake is not large, and it is only four or five miles in radius, close to the main road, and the terrain is flat on all sides, so there is no fear of being raided. Nearly 100,000 horses have to eat and drink, if it is too far away from the water source, it will be very inconvenient, and the terrain here is flat, the cavalry and vehicles are very well dispatched, and the attack and defense are very convenient for the Song army.
However, Wei Minglan knew that he still had a killer trick that he hadn't used. After tonight, Song Jun will leave a deep memory, which is also the key to this victory over the loser.
The Song army all over the mountains was still quite shocking, but for Wei Minglan, who had been fighting for many years, he saw through the essence of the Song army at a glance.
In the clairvoyant mirror captured in the Battle of Dongkuo, Wei Minglan took a look at the Song army.
One by one, loose and sloppy, walking and riding? And soldiers with packages? I'm grass, this thing is still riding a mule! The Song army is too imaginative, how can such an army annihilate my 10,000 horsemen?
Fang Dang Changwu, this pig!
Well, this part is a little better, it turned out to be the Western Army, no wonder it is much stronger than the Forbidden Army.
Well, sure enough, camping in Longxu Lake, it is really a blessing to the party, and this battle has won eighty percent!
Liu Fa and Tong Guan led the army to come over, and the hula were piled up by Longxu Lake.
They knew very well that although they had 60,000 horses, the key to the entire battlefield was not in Longxu Lake, but in the hands of Lin Chong's five thousand strange soldiers.
60,000 people is a big piece of fat, so big that Liu Fa and Tong Guan both think that Wei Minglan will definitely take the bait, but they don't know when.
Liu Fa made some disguises, probably keeping the camp of 70,000 people and covering up Lin Chong's 5,000 people.
In fact, 5,000 people, in the scale of 70,000 troops, is not very conspicuous, but for the sake of insurance, Lin Chong still reminded Liu Fa that he must do it safely.
In the north, Seed Master Dao and Han Shizhong faced off against Wei Mingmad and Wu Zang Hua Hong, and Han Shizhong led more than 1,000 cavalry to meet him.
Wei Mingmad took 800 horsemen on the uphill very leisurely, looking at the tens of thousands of cavalry of the Song army below, disdainful.
Why is this a cavalry? What kind of broken horses, they all lose fat badly, and the color of the fur is so bad, it's ruined. And you're a cavalryman, and it's called a spear with such a short one? Actually so thin that you can put on double armor?
In the end, he gave Song Jun a definition: weak chicken!
The Song army, which was 1,200 horsemen, rushed up the hill under the leadership of Han Shizhong.
When the Song army was almost a hundred paces away, Wei Ming shouted wildly, "Get on the horse!" "Eight hundred cavalrymen turned over in an instant.
"Spear ready!" The party cavalry raised their spears, which were more than a zhang long, and aimed them at the Song cavalry that was attacking from the bottom up.
"Boys, rush!" The madness of the name led the arrogant cavalry to speed up and dive.
One hundred steps, Han Shizhong shouted "Launch!" "Twelve hundred horsemen took their cavalry crossbows and pulled the trigger in an instant.
"Boom! Whoosh~"
The cavalry crossbow with one crossbow and three arrows was also transformed by Lu Qing. You can think about it, 3,600 crossbow arrows, a distance of 100 paces, it's just a rain of arrows!
But this is not over, before the crossbow arrow landed, Han Shizhong then shouted, "Second crossbow, launch!" ”
The cavalry threw away the crossbow in his hand, copied out another cavalry crossbow, aimed it in front of him, and pulled the trigger.
It was still 3,600 crossbow arrows that broke through the air and shrouded the party cavalry eighty paces ahead.
After the two rounds were fired, Han Shizhong whistled, and the cavalry on the left and right flanks quickly increased their speed, faintly encircling Wei Minglan. Fortunately, the cavalry of the old species is quite powerful, and they can make do with it when they are commanded.
Under the blow of two rounds of arrows, the party cavalry had less than 600 cavalry left, and nearly a third of them were hung up.
Such a loss frightened the maniac.
I'm rubbing, this group of Song troops harvested people's heads really quickly, how did such a dense crossbow arrow be launched?
And they actually used not a long weapon, but a three-foot-long war knife? Is this to give up the charge and fight directly in close combat? This group of cavalry is really weird.
No matter how Wei Mingmad complained, the two sides quickly came into contact, but the Song army all lay on horseback and rushed towards the enemy cavalry with their right hand dragging their knives.
Han Shizhong was in the middle, escorted by seven or eight relatives, and rushed forward aiming at Wei Mingmad.
Wei Mingmad carried a big iron rod, like a mountain, and also rushed towards Han Shizhong.
Preemptively, Han Shizhong took the lead in shooting, and the big gun stabbed straight into the opponent's chest. Wei Ming waved his arm wildly, and with a stick he swung away Han Shizhong's big gun.
After the sound of "bell", Han Shizhong felt a tingle in the tiger's mouth, this guy's strength is actually not small.
Without thinking too much, he turned the head of the gun when he staggered, and used the back pistol stunt, stabbing the opponent in the back of the head, neck and vest three times in a row, forming a straight line.
Wei Mingmad was like a long eye behind his back, and he shook his hand with a stick, just swinging Han Shizhong's big gun away.
The two commanders were separated without danger, but the cavalry of both sides had already begun a fierce battle on the slopes. After paying nearly 100 casualties, the Song army rushed into the party cavalry, and at this time the power of the war knife was revealed.
Although most of the Maniac's subordinates are wearing double armor, the flexibility of the sword is a good illustration of what it means to be short and dangerous.
Three or two Song troops directly pounced on the Dangxiang cavalry, dragged him off his horse, and then inserted his war knife into the gap between the armor and joints, killing one with only two or three knives, and then teamed up to find the next target.
When the two sides distanced themselves, the Song army lost nearly 200 people, and Wei Mingmad was even worse, only a little more than 300 remained, which was already crippled.
