Like the army in Tuoba Jiuxing's hands, the strength of the Chen Dynasty made the besieged Chen army not feel hopeless. The number of 300,000 troops is their confidence, looking at the dense number of soldiers on their side, they still can't believe that Dongxia can come up with more troops to gather and annihilate them.

Dia Bird seized Lingwu, convened a meeting of his generals, and did not make a large-scale offensive at the first time, although the army began to fight with open fire, standing on a high place and looking at it, flags, camps, men and horses, boundless, but, is it virtual or real, how can the soldiers of Chen Guo estimate?

The meeting was held for military deployment.

Many generals who only knew how to fight did not know that the king had encircled the enemy, why he still held a meeting, why he didn't just give orders, and the various departments besieged one by one, wave by wave.

They didn't know, and neither did Wei Chibing.

Diao had to hold a meeting in Lingwu, and the duty given to Wei Chibing was to protect the safety of Lingwu.

As soon as he heard that he was responsible for defending Lingwu, Wei Chi Bing felt a wave of loss in his heart: all over the sky are already our own soldiers in Dongxia, what is there to defend? If you don't participate in Lingwu's military meeting, it means that you don't need to convey the deployment to yourself, and you have to sit on the cold bench. Not to mention his own losses, he also lost a lot for his five hundred iron horses.

Since his surrender to Dia Bird, he has focused on the formation of heavy cavalry in Eastern Xia, training five hundred iron cavalry.

It's not that apart from these five hundred people, there are no heavy cavalry in Eastern Xia.

Dongxia leather and iron art started from shoes and horseshoe, experienced from scratch, and now is a craftsman with a huge output.

Even the standard of armor is referred to by all countries and is bent on surpassing, but the soldiers of other countries are separated from the workers, and the soldiers do not know.

First of all, the light armor of double-layer lacquered cowhide, tens of thousands of pieces were ordered by the Central Plains Imperial Court, and then Dongxia produced a double-layer cowhide inlaid with bamboo pieces of light armor and a double-layer of cowhide inlaid with iron sheets. After these standards became popular, the chain mail representing the pinnacle of wrought iron, the Mingguang armor that was punched and polished began to emerge, and the protective gear of various single products was also excellence, beautiful and practical, and it was a hot boutique for the eyes of the best martial arts practitioners.

Because of the unique advantages of trade and the importance of artisan workshops, even the Central Plains, which has strong national strength, cannot keep up with their footsteps.

Every year, Dongxia's self-produced grain and cotton cloth are not counted, and the grain, green salt, tea, and cotton cloth obtained by sea are not counted, and a large amount of grain, porcelain, tea, and cotton cloth will be purchased from the Central Plains, and these items are used to exchange with the various departments of the grassland, in exchange for cowhides, sheepskins, processed into leather goods, and sold back to the Central Plains.

Before sending troops, Diao was persuaded by the alchemists to have a hot head, and he wanted to save copper and iron to suppress the national fortune in the next few years.

With such conditions, there is no shortage of armor staff in Dongxia, and some generals with good conditions are all inner armor, outer armor, protective gear, three layers inside and three layers outside the body, and leather horse armor is also extremely common.

Wei Chibing's team is different.

Horses use special breed horses, when they are selected, they must be tested for weight, impact, stumbling, etc., and even the leg distance must be measured; Knights want to use tall people, when selecting soldiers, don't do it if you are less than six feet, don't lift 200 pounds, don't run 10 miles with 50 pounds, even so, you have to go through the muscles and bones and layers of screening. The armor on their bodies was all bright light armor components, and their faces were not even exposed, and their horses were also covered with iron sheets, not like horses, but like pangolins. The weapons they use, one-third of which are Zhanghachi spears, but more often are a unique weapon called boring, with a spear tip in the middle, two long crescents on the left and right, and small rings on the top.

At present, his army has only more than 400 people, and he calls it 500.

According to the corresponding subordinates, not counting the auxiliaries, he also had a light and heavy cavalry twice the number of iron cavalry, the total number of which was about fifteen hundred.

In addition to him, there is also Wu Ban who is responsible for the security work.

Wu Ban's own army was about 10,000 people, and it was also equipped with some martial arts and official scholars.

As soon as the two of them sat together, Wei Chibing, who was straight, began to sigh one by one.

Every time Wu Ban looked at him, he said: "I didn't expect you to be so used by the king, and you also squatted on the cold bench with me." ”

Wu Ban didn't want to explain it to him, but he was like this, a strong sigh, look at him, he will repeat the sentence "squat on the cold bench together", without much effort, Wu Ban couldn't stand it, and said with a wry smile: "Originally, the king wanted to hold you back." Don't let me sue you. It seems that if I don't talk to you again, you can hum in people's ears for a day. ”

Wei Chibing's eyes lit up.

Wu Ban said: "As soon as Lingwu was lost, the supply of the 300,000 army was cut off, don't you say that you, as an important general, don't you even know the military common sense that the enemy will attack Lingwu?" The king picked and choked, saying that only you can withstand the enemy's counterattack at this juncture, so that he and the generals can calmly calculate how to eat the enemy's 300,000 army. You're still humming, can you fight without you? ”

Wei Chibing still snorted: "As soon as the iron cavalry comes out, the enemy will be swept away, and there will be no more battles, and then there will be nothing to do with me." Hmph, you're annoyed. ”

He deliberately said: "It is said that you are the one who should be annoyed, the literati complain a lot, why don't you bother, 300,000 enemy troops are in front of you, and we are only enough to fight one or two battles." Also, you followed Prince Xiao in the front, and there were many people who didn't worry, so you could laugh, if you were like me, wouldn't that be sour and hum? ”

Wu Ban couldn't laugh or cry.

After thinking about it for a while, he said, "There are some things that the king didn't say, but I understand it this way. Our two armies, one large and one small, are the elite of Eastern Xia, the king kept us, to take him with him, to guard the Lingwu, Tuoba Heiyun by himself, he can't beat the Lingwu, when the time comes, Tuoba Weiwei will come from the west to save his 300,000 army. Lingwu is the most important thing, and only by concentrating an army like ours can we deal with it. ”

Yu Chibing still snorted: "That's what I said, but where is this enemy?" It's three poles up. Neither did the ghost. ”

Wu Ban saw that he was doing it on purpose, so he simply ignored him, pointed at him twice with his index finger, and mocked: "The best armament in Dongxia is given to you, raise a girl, if you cry twice, the little brother will really bow down." ”

Wei Chi Bing leaned back on the Taishi chair, leaned on the overwhelmed Taishi chair with a "creak", cocked Erlang's legs, looked up at the sky, and looked sad: "Raising soldiers for five years." If you can't fight, you won't let you hum twice? ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a cavalryman rolled up the wind and smoke, rushed directly to him, and shouted: "General Qiyu." Chen's army came up, at least 30,000 to 50,000, and filled the river valley ten miles away. ”

Wei Chibing collapsed the chair with a "snap", the key is that he did not squat on the ground, but tied up his horse and shouted: "Good brother." I'll go draped. You don't go up first and divide it by two, wait for me. As he spoke, he turned around, and a huge black man disappeared in a flash.

Wu Ban turned his head to look at him, crying and laughing.

Indeed, his iron rider is slower than others in making all kinds of preparations.

His men and horses are used to charge the formation, and the best effect is when the battlefield is spread out, and after the enemy and me are fully contacted, they suddenly attack the enemy formation, and wait for him to wait for the same?

A bullock approached and asked in confusion: "General, the valley is narrow, why don't we set up a position there, but let the enemy calmly pass through guò?" ”

Wu Ban said calmly: "This question, the people of martial arts have asked me a long time ago. Although we are defending Lingwu, we are not trying to passively block the enemy. We also have a lot of cavalry, and being able to set up a battlefield there is also not conducive to our performance. What's more, it's narrow, and when the enemy comes up to fight, we can use a force of men and horses to storm the Qinghuatan valley and cut them off...... Now that the situation of besieging the enemy has been formed, what we want is to divide and eat 300,000 horses, and now, for us, this is an excellent opportunity. ”

The bully wondered, "But we only have more than 10,000 people." ”

Wu Ban smiled: "Why do you only see more than 10,000 people?" The flag army is not counted, Chang Zilong's army, Niu Shuai's army are the elite of our Eastern Xia, not far away, as long as the fight starts, you can catch up in an instant, these 50,000 troops are far away from their Chinese army, giving us the opportunity to annihilate them, do we still have to be polite because we only have 10,000 or 20,000 people in our hands? ”

Because he had to be ready for battle, he didn't talk to the bully any more, even if he got together with a lot of bullocks, and listened patiently to his plan.

Although he didn't say it, his heart was cold.

This will also be his battle for fame.

The young man is a good general, more than ten years of cold and summer, studying the art of war hard, traveling through the mountains and rivers with a sack on his back, and he can't eat for three days when he falls out...... He is not a fierce person, but the aura of a Confucian general is flourishing.

He got on his horse heroically and walked into the military formation, and the first to go was the young soldiers of martial arts and state studies.

Not all of them were teenagers, but there were also some Batel who had entered the official school, and they were extra allocated to him, including Salihan.

Then came the new army, which was trained by one hand.

This new army is still a split from Wang Zhen's evil army, but it is an additional mix of the old elites of Eastern Xia.

Wu Ban can be sure that in the whole world, only Dia Niao can give him such a weight, hand over the ace army to himself, and break up and reorganize into a new army, which is beyond the military power given...... There is also a willingness to talent.

Many talented people, when they emerge, no one will believe them, and they are afraid that they will talk about it. No matter how they prove it, if they are not the ones who charge into battle, they can stay up to the top and join the army in three or five years, they are still staff officers, they do not touch military power, and they cannot practice what they want. Ten years and eight years have passed, the gray hair climbed up the temples, and the top felt stable, and there was no one at hand, so he would be sent out to preside over the military affairs of one party, but the young man who had the heart to make meritorious contributions did not have the foundation to lead the troops, although he could lead the troops, the soldiers were not trained by himself, and he was not able to choose them, and he lacked personnel, but became a blunt weapon and ruined.

He Wu Ban was not treated like this.

He expressed his ambition to the army, and the bird enlisted him, and he enlisted in the army, and felt that the captain was doing a good job, and when he put it forward, he was promoted to the arrow leader, and the arrow leader felt that it was okay, so he climbed to the collar, and exercised layer by layer, and finally according to the actual situation of the army, he proposed a new method of training, and Diao immediately gave him the old foundation of the kingdom.

This is the weight, this is the courage of the king.

In the Central Plains, even if his father was still alive and someone in the family came up to heaven, he would not have the same opportunity as today.

Civilians enlist in the army, who dares to worry about the war?

Perhaps, at this time, there are many elders who persuade themselves not to go astray, and they stay up until they are forty or fifty years old, and the benefactor who has contributed their efforts has climbed to the general, and only then did he give himself a chance to become a military chief of the county under his repeated pleas.

What now?

There is such a British master, dare not fight to the death to repay him?

Wu Ban took more than ten bulls, dressed in silver armor, riding a green horse, pulling a big red cloak covering the horse's hips, and crossed from the front of one camp after another, inspecting all the way, more and more vigorous.
