"The Song people have always been weak, and they must have been intimidated by our morale, so frightened that they kept calling their hands and feet!"

"The Song people were timid before they fought, but they were afraid that the next moment our army would fire thousands of arrows, and the Song people would collapse!"

"The Song people are just advanced with weapons, but their courage is very poor, didn't Cui Shibin say it, these Song people are actually a group of recruits, a group of grass robbers!"

"It's a waste of such a good weapon and armor, but this time it's ......"

As he was talking, he saw a trumpet blow in the Goryeo army, and thousands of Goryeo archers released their tightly fastened bowstrings at the same time, as if dense locusts flew by, and dense arrows rose into the sky at the same time, and even the sky was temporarily obscured.

When these arrows flew past the highest point, they began to dive towards the Song array. At this moment, it was as if someone in the Song army formation roared, and all the Song soldiers raised their shields in their hands almost at the same time, hiding their bodies behind the shields.

In the blink of an eye, the feather arrows fell, like rain hitting lotus leaves, and countless arrows were bounced off by the shield and fell to the ground, causing negligible casualties.

Li Zide's excited expression suddenly froze, he half-opened his mouth, and said a little incredulous: "This ...... And such an operation? ”

These Song troops were able to raise their shields and block arrows without any difference when they were about to fight, and their movements were indescribably neat, smooth and concise.

This mental quality and concentration, as well as the proficiency of movements, how can it be done if you are not a veteran of several years of battle?

Doesn't it mean that these Song people are all grass soldiers and new soldiers? How so?

"Call Cui Shibin to ......"

In front of the two armies, the Goryeo infantry army had fired three rounds of feather arrows in a row, and the rain of arrows almost covered the infantry formation of the Liangshan army.

Casualties are still negligible.

"It's really heaven to die these Dongyi, even this kind of ability dares to show up in front of my Han family's arrow array! I really don't know where they got their confidence? ”

Liang Shanjun commanded the watchtower, Hu Cheng held a wicker arrow used by the Goryeo people in his hand, and said to Zhu Wu with mockery.

For a long time, most of the hardwood and bamboo used in China have been used, and it is recorded in the "Examination of the Gongji" in the Spring and Autumn Period that the dry timber is on the top of the wood, and the second is the wood and oak tree, and the bamboo is the bottom.

Because these wood materials are extremely solid, they are less deformed in the process of launching and flying, have a longer range, and have greater lethality, compared to the performance of bamboo arrows is much worse.

For this reason, bamboo is often used as the arrow shaft in the south of China, while hard wood is mostly used as the arrow shaft in the north, so often in the war, the army in the north can always beat the south on the feather arrow, and take the lead.

However, regardless of whether it is in the north or south of China, the comparison of the feather arrows of the root Goryeo is the difference between the grandmaster and the little white, because the feather arrows of the Goryeo people are very few made of bamboo, and most of them are made of wicker.

Maybe it's the wicker that is slender and extremely easy to process into an arrow shaft, in short, the wicker arrow is convenient, but the performance is too poor, and the reason is simple, the wicker is too soft.

The wicker writhing in the air during the flight of the feather arrow consumes a lot of energy, after hitting the target, but if it encounters a little hard thing to temporarily block the arrow, the elastic wicker arrow shaft will be violently twisted to remove the remaining energy.

The same one-stone bow can shoot a pair of armor at close range within fifty paces, and the armor can be pierced with a hardwood arrow, while the wicker arrow will only be bounced away, and even a better leather armor cannot penetrate, and can only shoot at unarmored targets.

Although the Koreans shot more than 10,000 feathered arrows, the casualties caused were pitiful, let alone through the shield, even a very small number of shots hit the exposed skin, and only half an inch of flesh, at most it could only be regarded as a minor injury.

"Where does the confidence come from? It's not that he recognized Liao as a wild father, so he regarded himself as a Khitan and looked down on us Song people. ”

Above the watchtower, Zhu Wu smiled and didn't speak, but Li Tianyan couldn't help but say: "But it's no wonder that these Dongyi have such a psychological advantage, they have defeated hundreds of thousands of Liao troops three times, and they have also received a lot of benefits from the Liao State, but the Song Dynasty has to send New Year's coins to the Liao State every year." ”

"Shit, that's also called defeat? Even Kaijing was burned by the Khitan, and every time Goryeo cleared the field and took the initiative to sue for peace, the Liao State could not gain a long-term foothold and had to withdraw its troops, which is also called defeat? ”

Hu Cheng had been to Goryeo many times when he was running a private merchant to do maritime trade, and then when Lin Chong was determined to recover the homeland of the Han and Tang Dynasties in Haidong, he asked Hu Cheng and Hu Yanqing and the people of the special service battalion to collect information about Goryeo, so Hu Cheng also knew a lot about the grievances between Goryeo and Liao.

Because of the discrimination against the "Khitan country of birds and beasts (the original words of Wang Jian's last words "Ten Disciplines") and the yearning for the homeland of Goguryeo in the north, as early as the early days of the founding of Goryeo, he continued to invade the north and encroach on the Jurchen land under the rule of the Liao State, and finally annoyed the Liao State, so he sent 200,000 troops to conquer Goryeo in the tenth year of Liao Tonghe.

In this battle, Goryeo was defeated on all fronts, and it was not the opponent of the Liao army at all, so he had to ask for peace. Just because the main opponent of the Liao State at that time was still the Song Dynasty, and Goryeo was full of mountains and the roads were difficult to travel, so he chose to accept it, and Goryeo began to serve Liao as Zhengshuo from then on.

After signing the alliance with the Song Dynasty for the second Liao State to conquer Goryeo, Yelu Longxu, the Liao Shengzong, personally led an army of 400,000 to fight Goryeo, wanting to complete his work in one battle.

In this battle, the Liao State fought all the way from the Yalu River to Kaijing, and after breaking the city, it was burned, and the king of Goryeo had to flee south to Luozhou, but the same Liao State chose to withdraw from the Goryeo Peacekeeping Quest because the battle line was too long and the Goryeo people were unstable and often harassed.

Only the third Goryeo Liao State conquered Goryeo and barely won Goryeo, but the 100,000 Liao army also fought all the way to Kaijing, and they also won a great victory all the way.

It's just because the Kaijing City was less burned by the Liao State before, and then the Goryeo people gritted their teeth and levied 300,000 strong men to build the city, and the Kaijing City was built very strong, and the Liao army could not break the city and had to plunder it outside the city.

Therefore, after learning about these circumstances, Hu Cheng never thought that the Goryeo people had defeated hundreds of thousands of Liao troops on the battlefield, and he was even more scornful of the Goryeo people's inexplicable confidence and superiority.

Zhu Wu also smiled at this time, and said coldly: "It's a good thing that these Dongyi are confident, I'm afraid that they will collapse at the first touch, turn around and flee back to Kaijing, but it's not good!" ”

Li Tianyan nodded, and at this moment, he saw a low horn sound sounding again in the Goryeo array that was rushing, and the five thousand Goryeo infantry raised the shield in their hands again and accelerated forward, his eyes suddenly glowed, and he looked at Zhu Wu with burning eyes.
