Chapter 319: Whistling

"What?" At this moment, Jiang Xujing, who had just returned to Guiyi City to hold a military meeting, could hardly believe it after hearing about this, and he hurriedly ran to the city, although Ye Tao's Ye Workshop sold a lot of telescopes, but he never sold telescopes with high enough magnifications and large enough field of view to anyone at will, even in the telescopes that Jiang Xujing was using at the moment, the position of the heavy equipment battalion could only see small figures, but could not see too specific content. But, a little later, he saw a gliding bullet rattling up from the ballista gun mount, and watched as the slow, bewildering thing rose and fell in a gorgeous arc.

The hit rate of the gliding bullet is not so reliable, after all, it is not a guided weapon, but just a projectile weapon that is very affected by the wind and can only roughly judge the landing point after hitting it. This time, I don't know if this glider bomb is lighter or the wooden pole is tied tighter, and the energy lost when gliding in the air is less, this gliding bomb directly crossed the city wall and landed in Guiyi City, and exploded on a barracks near the city wall, and the burning fire oil splashed everywhere, and a large number of sergeants who were originally resting in the camp immediately began to cry wolf.

"What is this?" Jiang Xujing asked through gritted teeth. But no one could answer him. A third glider grew. He said viciously: "Ye Tao has come up with something this time, this war is still not allowed to let people live in peace." ”

Naturally, no one will answer his question. If Ye Tao can make this kind of thing and don't use it, then it's called hell. Since Ye Tao came up with the ballista, the long-range combat method of the Dongping army has been twice as powerful. Now, with the birth of this gliding projectile, Dongping's long-range combat power has reached a higher level...... On this plane, this is simply a strategic-level weapon.

The Yunzhou army didn't care about these situations, and the scout cavalry who were on guard on the battlefield didn't let those Xiling cavalry get close. Behind them, the sergeants of the various battalions walked out of the camp one after another, watching the gliding bombs fired again and again. In those places, where they were far away and could not see the operation of the heavy equipment battalion when they saw the gathering, the sergeants set up binoculars in front of their battalions, and sat on the grass or even on the roof of the carriage in twos and threes, paying attention to the results of each gliding bomb. Some people even started betting on the next hit...... In the Yunzhou Army, small bets are not against military discipline, as long as the amount does not exceed a quarter of a tael of silver, and the odds do not exceed ten. This kind of small bet is far more face-saving than winning, but everyone still enjoys it. And with each gliding bomb rising and falling, a cheer or regret erupted.

The gliding bomb was too inaccurate, and the old grandson personally fired three shots and one was planted in the moat, and at least half of the others did not cause any damage. However, this result was enough, and these things made of cloth and wood made the cathars in Guiyi City tremble, and many even thought that it was a punishment from heaven. And those officers who witnessed what was going on gritted their teeth: Ye Tao was too bullying.

Fortunately, on this day, it was just to try the right head in Guiyi City, and more than 50 rounds were fired, so that everyone could practice a little and then withdraw. But Jiang Xujing still gritted his teeth as if insulted and ordered the officers around him: "Go to the personal highway, we will fight." ”

Two days later, only three days before the date of the battle, Jiang Xujing had already returned to the place where the soldiers and horses of his headquarters were, and personally led the army to appear on the horizon. Jiang Xujing's Chinese army, Guiyi City and Ye Tao's camp just formed an equilateral triangle, facing each other from a distance. Subsequently, one by one, the army came to the battlefield, assembled, and prepared seriously. This kind of battle with a fixed date has not happened for many years in the history of the two countries, especially since it seems to have never happened on the territory of Xiling.

"Ye Tao should have three or four more battalions over there." Standing on the edge of Jiang Xujing, Ni Sigui said lightly, now, they are all standing on the battlefield, standing in front of the Yunzhou army, there is nothing to care about. "Marshal, are you really going to carry the Yunzhou army with those apologists?"

Although Jiang Xujing is old and his hair is white, he still looks very energetic and heroic. He patted Ni Sigui on the shoulder and said, "As long as you arrive on time and don't encounter any trouble, my old bones can still be saved." Three hours, remember not to be late. You...... Let's go. ”

Ni Sigui bowed respectfully, and called out in a low voice. He turned around and left. Ni Sigui and Jia Qingyun have been following Jiang Xu Kyoto for too many years, and with heavy armor, they are not rigid in etiquette.

As soon as Ni Sigui left, Jiang Xujing continued to arrange the battle in full swing. "Have you inquired clearly, what are those towers used for?" Jiang Xujing yelled at several officers beside him. Ye Tao's endless new ideas really made Jiang Xujing a little worried, God knows what tricks those towering four- and five-story towers can conjure.

"Marshal, the cathars have been assembled. This is the beginning, right? The deputy hurriedly leaned up and asked.

"Let's go in." Jiang Xujing said lightly: "Repair at a distance of 1,000 steps, and the elite cavalry of the headquarters will be in front." Let the cathars stop bluffing, save some effort and wait for a while to run faster, run faster, and have a better chance of surviving. ”

"Yes." The deputy hurriedly went to order.

Seeing Jiang Xujing's troops entering the battlefield one after another from a distance in the telescope, Ye Tao smiled and said, "Two uncles, everything is arranged, two uncles will command." I took the Guards Cavalry Battalion and the Guards Infantry Battalion to the front. ”

Dai Shijin and Dai Shihuan looked at each other. Dai Shihuan said: "Virtuous nephew, you can rest assured to play." It's up to us two old bones here. Ha ha. ”

Ye Tao hugged his fists to the two and said, "There is labor." ”

It was the first time that Dai Shijin and Dai Shiheng were in charge of the whole army under such favorable conditions. At the foot of the tallest tower, which was six stories high, there was a makeshift cowhide tent with a sand table and butter headlights, and two full rows of staff officers were taking care of all kinds of military information, and even if their orders were accurately conveyed to each unit, they also transmitted military information. All the two of them have to do is think about what is the most appropriate tactic. And each branch of the military has a special officer representative in the command account to provide reference advice for the two adults of the Dai family, such as what order is best issued to which battalion. Especially this time, representatives of aviation were added.

The tower above their heads is used to observe the military situation and transmit military orders. Each command tower has two sets of grating box messengers and flag soldiers, which can be verified while giving orders. A few miles behind the main command tower, there is a series of smaller command towers that can quickly relay orders to the airship mooring yard hidden in a mountain col. This time, the two of them had a total of twenty airships at their disposal, four of which were equipped with simple bombing sights and slides, including Ye Tao's own personal airship. Now there is a serious shortage of airships, so I have to use this one together.

"Wan Sheng!" "Wan Sheng!" "Wan Sheng!" ……

As Ye Tao appeared on the battlefield with the Guards Infantry Battalion and the Guards Cavalry Battalion, taking the lead in entering the array, the soldiers of each battalion cheered loudly, like a tsunami. Although Ye Tao is not a general...... Everyone knows this, but Ye Tao is indeed a very likable chief.

also followed one after another into the position. The Guards Infantry and Guards Cavalry were the leaders of the entire army in Yunzhou, but the armor and weapons on their bodies were the same as those of the Tieyun Cavalry, the Jingyun Cavalry, and the Heavy Infantry Battalion, except that the shoulders, arms, chest and back, as well as the heavy tower shields of the heavy infantry were all finely stamped with brass stamping. It looks majestic and gorgeous. This was the first time that the Guards Cavalry Battalion and the Guards Infantry Battalion had stepped onto the battlefield, and even the first time they had left Ningyuan City. This time, in order to replenish the troops, the two guards battalions that were not ready to be called up were all pulled into the battlefield. Compared with the strength of the two battalions, it seems that Ye Tao once again made everyone feel more determined.

"All the troops are in battle! Longbowmen, heavy equipment battalion preparation. The Heavy Weapons Battalion all gave me Fire Oil Bomb II and began firing at me when they were ready. Wait a minute, play with the deflagration effect for me. Dai Shihuan smiled and ordered.

"Order: Jingyun Cavalry and Tieyun Cavalry dismount and rest after spreading their wings."

"Order: The baggage battalion is ready with water and dry rations at all times."

"Order: Frostwolf and Silver Wing are to be sent out in groups with a minimum of 200 people, to guard the perimeter, and to search and kill scouts and enemy escape squads. …… Jiang Xujing hid Ni Sigui and Jia Qingyun, and he didn't know when he would come out. Dai Shijin added.

"The heavy infantry battalion is closest to the entry position, and it is now in place." A staff officer reported.

Dai Shihuan ordered: "Okay." Sit down and rest. The combat infantry battalion stepped forward. ”

"The first batch was all remote? Is it reliable? Dai Shijin reminded.

"I trust the Heavy Equipment Battalion, the Longbow Battalion, and the short crossbows that everyone has on hand. Jiang Xujing is not ready to fight us to the death, but is just ready to drag us out and let Ni Sigui and Jia Qingyun solve it. It is expected that there will not be many cavalry in the first batch to lead the charge. Look. If there are few people, just do it, there are more people, it is simple, and the cavalry on both wings is assaulted. Dai Shiheng shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.

"It's coming......" Dai Shijin pouted. He didn't bother to ask about the military situation, just by listening to the sound of rolling horses' hooves and the sound of footsteps in a piece, he knew that Jiang Xujing had launched an attack.

Jiang Xujing's courage was still not small, he did not trim it, and he launched an attack directly without adjusting the queue. Jiang Xujing has heard of playing with fire in the heavy equipment camp, especially playing with deflagration.
