Chapter 290: Arrow Rain Suppression
The three of them came to the general's study, and the general said to the three: "The catapult you are talking about, the court has sent people to study it. ”
Hearing the general's words, Xi Chen and they understood, and it seemed that the imperial court had also noticed this.
"Not just catapults, but crossbows, powerful crossbows."
The imperial court seems to understand these truths, and Xi Chen and Cao Wenhan feel that they are thinking too much.
"The comfortable days have passed for too long, so no one pays attention to them, and I am only starting to pay attention now, hoping that it is not too late." The general said.
It's not that there are no capable people in the court, and there are also high-ranking people, but no one pays attention to this aspect.
If the days of peace are too long, who will work this?
I'm afraid it will feel like a waste of money, even if the military people say it to the court, the court will probably not agree.
Now, needless to say, the imperial court has begun to develop.
But the general then said: "However, we can't wait, we can't tolerate the Jin soldiers encroaching on us step by step, we must let the Jin soldiers understand that we are capable of fighting." ”
"Command, General." Xi Chen and Cao Wenhan said.
"Maocheng, that's our beginning, Maocheng, we must take it." The general said categorically.
"Yes, swear to take Maocheng to the death." They shouted.
"Trebuchet, crossbow arrows, you don't have to think about it, you can't wait."
"I will find someone to make the siege ladder and the log car of the siege gate, but relying on these alone, it is difficult for us to attack Maocheng." The general is still sensible, and he does not blindly want to make meritorious contributions.
It stands to reason that Xi Chen is a small metropolitan commander and Cao Wenhan is a small metropolitan commander, and it is impossible for the general to discuss these combat matters with them.
But the general wanted to try it in his heart, and he always felt that Xi Chen and Cao Wenhan might be able to bring him some surprises.
Because of the trip to Maocheng, Xi Chen and Cao Wenhan have already brought him surprises.
"General, I have a note." Cao Wenhan feels that now is not the time to be low-key, and he must take the initiative when it is time to take the initiative.
"Say." The general said.
Cao Wenhan opened his mouth and said: "General, we should use the rain of arrows to suppress the Jin soldiers, so that the Jin soldiers cannot hold their positions and retreat to the city." ”
"How to suppress it?" The general asked.
"Now the archers of the Divine Arrow Battalion are all making their own bows and arrows."
"It's hard to hit, it's very inefficient, and it's easy to come out of the vacuum." Cao Wenhan said.
"Do you have a way to avoid it?" The general asked.
"It's simple, divide the archers into three groups, shoot the first group, and then crouch down to prepare. The second group shoots arrows, after which comes the third, and then the first. ”
"This will allow the arrows to shoot out uninterruptedly, forming a large area of arrow rain, even if the hit rate is not considered, such a dense arrow rain will make it difficult for Jin Bing to deal with."
Cao Wenhan's words were taken to heart by the general, and he felt that it was indeed feasible.
"What else?" The general asked.
Xi Chen followed Cao Wenhan's words and said: "The range of the archers is limited, we must send someone to stick it up, so that the archers follow closely, and the people in front can't hide, so as to create opportunities for the archers behind." ”
"A lot of people will die." Xi Chen finally said.
Hearing Xi Chen's words, the general nodded slightly, and then said: "If you can capture Maocheng, no matter how many people die, it is worth it." ”
A general is not a soft-hearted person, and a soft-hearted person cannot be a general.
"Go back and prepare, go to Maocheng." The general's words are to tell Xi Chen that they are about to set off.
"What should I do when I go back to Jiangcheng?" Cao Wenhan asked.
If they go from Huijiangcheng to attack Maocheng, what will they do when they return to Jiangcheng?
The general said: "After the Jin soldiers occupied Maocheng, they gathered 50,000 soldiers and horses in Maocheng, and the other cities added up to only 10,000. ”
"It is enough to leave 5,000 people in Huijiang City, and the other 40,000 people to attack Maocheng."
The general seemed to be planning to break the boat, and Xi Chen and the others didn't say much.
"You can run, don't die." Fang Siyu said to Xi Chen and Cao Wenhan.
Three days later, he returned to Jiangcheng and set out to fight Maocheng.
The Jin soldiers of Maocheng received this news immediately, because the people who came out of Jiangcheng were so vast that it was difficult to know if they wanted to.
The two armies faced each other, and Xi Chen saw that Wuyang and Wuyang in front of him were all people.
Looking at his side, Wuyang and Wuyang are also people.
Xi Chen and Cao Wenhan are no longer together, and the general personally supervises the battle.
"War drums." As soon as the general gave the order, more than 100 battle drums rang out.
Thousands of miles to hear the drums of war......
Deafening and inspiring.
The sound of war drums made Xi Chen and the others seem to be full of enthusiasm.
"Rush." At the sound of an order, all the soldiers rushed forward with their soldiers.
Cao Wenhan and they followed, they needed to get close to the Jin soldiers, and then shoot arrows.
The soldiers in front rushed forward without their lives, the general broke the cauldron this time, and if Maocheng was not defeated in this battle, it would be difficult for them to retreat.
The soldiers in front kept dying, but they approached the position of the golden soldiers.
Seeing this, Cao Wenhan shouted to the archers behind him: "Group, release the arrows, cut your head and raise it, and don't need to aim." ”
Now you want to aim, it's basically impossible, the front is all your own people, do you want to aim at your own people?
Raise the arrow and shoot the arrow, let the arrow go out, and then fall down.
So you don't need to aim at all, you want density, as long as the density is enough, you can shoot the golden soldiers.
The arrows were like raindrops, passing over the heads of Xi Chen and them, and falling into the battlefield of the Jin soldiers, leaving the Jin soldiers seriously injured.
And the rain of arrows is uninterrupted, just coming batch after batch.
Fang Siyu is now following the general, which can be regarded as protecting the general.
When the general saw the power of the rain of arrows, he said: "Okay, the soldiers in front will resist, and the archers in the back will also be useful." ”
"Passing over your own people, the arrow falls directly into the position of the golden soldiers, you don't need to aim, shoot the arrow quickly."
This was the tactic used by the general this time, telling the men in front of him not to go too far from the archers.
Otherwise, the arrows of the archers will pierce them.
The Jin soldiers in front were not in danger either, because they were entangled with the soldiers who returned to Jiangcheng, and the arrows would not look for them.
But they all fell behind them, and there were more golden soldiers behind them, and they couldn't rush out.
There are 50,000 gold soldiers in Maocheng, but now there are only 10,000 on the battlefield, and Xi Chen and they also have 10,000 here, but outside Maocheng, it is already dense.
The space is limited, even if you have someone, you can't rush up, you can only wait until the person in front of you dies before you can rush up.
Xi Chen led the soldiers to kill in all directions, and Cao Wenhan commanded the archers to shoot arrows non-stop, and the golden soldiers were difficult to parry.
Xi Chen rushed ahead and saw a golden soldier general on horseback.
Xi Chen shouted: "The arrow is coming." ”
Xi Chen took the bow off his back, and a soldier handed Xi Chen an arrow.
These arrows are ten arrows specially made by Xi Chen, and now they have finally come in handy.
Pulling the bow on horseback, the heavy bow was pulled by Xi Chen and let go.
The arrows galloped and headed towards the golden generals from the heads of everyone.
The golden soldier seemed to feel the arrows flying over, and he swung his sword to block it.
But he underestimated the power of Xi Chen's arrows, as well as the speed of the arrows.
