Chapter 215: This is how Brave was killed
Larry City, Zarantu was very angry, the news he got today made him restless, the distant Great Chu, the legendary rich country, brazenly intervened in the battle for the throne of the Murowei people, but unfortunately, they did not support themselves, but their younger brother Tenig, and it was obvious that the Luotan tribe and the Datan tribe must also know the news, and the messenger who had originally sent him to discuss after he ascended to the throne suddenly became vague, The messenger who had just received these two parts had left overnight.
For that distant country, Zarantu didn't know, but knew that they were very rich and powerful, which can be verified from Tienig, in the early days of his dispute with Tienig, Tienig only sporadically got some of their weapons supply, but it was these weapons that caused great damage to their troops, although their strength was much stronger than Teniger, and they used a few advantages to forcibly suppress the other party, but now that the Great Chu army in the stock has entered, the outcome is unpredictable.
"The eldest prince, the victory or defeat is in the middle of the day." Moho, the shaman of the Mengwu Department, looked at the angry Zalantu worriedly, "If we can't get rid of Tenig as soon as possible, once it is delayed, the army of Great Chu will continue to pour into the territory of the Murwei people, and at that time, not only your position and surname are not guaranteed, but even our Murwei will not exist, it is obvious that Tenig has thrown himself into their arms, he only saw that the Great Chu people could help him ascend to the position of begging Mo Duhe, but he didn't see that the Great Chu people are also eyeing our Murwei!" ”
"Shaman, what should we do according to you?" Zarantu Road.
"According to the information we have obtained, the group of Great Chu troops who just landed today are obviously not adapted to the wind and waves at sea, and now is the time when they are the weakest, if we boldly attack at this time and annihilate them, the general situation will be decided."
Zarantu leaned back on the tiger's skin chair and said, "Lord Shaman, I also understand this, but I am afraid that if we annihilate this Great Chu army and annoy the giant in the distance, they will send a steady stream of large armies, then our Murwei people will be in great trouble." ”
Mo Huo shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry about this, eldest prince, as far as I know, it is Li Qing, the commander of the Dingzhou border army, who supports Tienig, why does he want to support Tienig, it is nothing more than that after Tienig ascends to the position of begging Mo Duhe, he will lead our Muwei people to attack the Green Ridge Pass and share the pressure of his battle with the barbarians, Tienig can do this, can't we do it?" Let's first expand his troops, let Li Qing know that our strength is much stronger than Teniger, at this time, I believe that Li Qing will definitely change his course and support us instead, as for these eliminated soldiers, what do you think in the eyes of people like Li Qing? ”
Listening to Moho's words, Zarantu couldn't help but get excited, "Lord Shaman, are you sure of this? These Great Chu armies are well-equipped, far from being comparable to us, are we sure to defeat them? ”
Mo Huo smiled: "I don't know much about military things, but I know that these Great Chu people are the weakest now, the longer it drags on, the stronger they will be, if we clench our fists and smash them with lightning speed, I believe they will not be able to stop it." As long as we win a battle, even if we can't completely destroy this army, we can make the Luotan and Datan tribes fall back to us, and at this time, we will send an envoy to negotiate with the other party, and we can also agree to the conditions that Tenig agreed, so the big thing is decided! ”
With a snap, Zarantu slapped the table, "The shaman has a point, that's it, tomorrow I will gather my army and attack with all my might, as for Luotan and Datan, hum, I expect them to just watch the excitement from the side, if I lose this battle, they will naturally fall into the ground, but if I win, they will not hesitate to support me." ”
When the sky was bright, a long horn sounded in the Jianrui camp, and a group of soldiers came out of the tent in full armor, ready to start their first training of the day, although they had been adrift at sea for a month, most of the soldiers were extremely uncomfortable, but the adaptation training in Hailing finally worked, after a night's rest, most of the soldiers had recovered, and stood in the ranks in good spirits.
Jiang Heiniu, like ordinary soldiers, still participates in the morning class every day, dressed in a short costume, he carried a big knife, and was about to give the order to start the morning exercise, when a galloping horse galloped to the camp gate, one person flew off the horse, showed his waist card to the sentry at the camp gate, and said loudly: "The special service of the Foreign Intelligence Agency of the Statistics and Investigation Department, there is an urgent matter to see General Jiang Shen!" ”
Jiang Heiniu finished reading the urgent letter sent by the special service of the Field Service Agency, and shook the information in his hand with a smile, "This Zarantu is still very tight, but unfortunately we are going to disappoint him, I originally wanted everyone to take a good rest and teach him a lesson, but now it seems that Zarantu can't wait, okay, then let Zarantu see how modern warfare is fought!" ”
The generals around him all laughed.
"Order the whole army to assemble and prepare for battle!"
The war machine of the Jianrui Battalion operated urgently and orderly with Jiang Heiniu's order.
As Wang Qinian's old subordinate of the Tianlei Battalion, Jiang Heiniu is well versed in the essentials of breaking through the cavalry, and the Jianrui Battalion is also mainly based on foot soldiers, but it is only equipped with a cavalry wing with flank cover, but their equipment is extremely sophisticated, Li Qing in order to ensure the smooth opening of the second battlefield, gave priority to assembling the best armor weapons to this pioneer battalion, and the entire Jianrui Battalion is like a steel monster, surrounded by countless equipment pouring out of the camp and driving towards the battlefield.
Zalantu gathered all his 30,000 troops, and he didn't care whether Luotan and Datan would attack his flank, he just wanted to crush the Great Chu army from afar in one fell swoop and defeat them, then nothing else would be a problem. He pre-set the battlefield, and at this time, his army of 30,000 condescendingly looked into the distance, the troops of his brother Tinig. His eyes narrowed slightly, and the dark black of the Tinig fluttering banner in the middle made him bite his lip tightly, the resources of the Murowei people were extremely lacking, and the vast majority of the soldiers could not even be equipped with leather armor, among their 30,000 horses, there were only more than 1,000 people with iron armor, and at the moment, in the army of Tinig, there were no less than 3,000 soldiers in iron armor, which must have been equipped by those hateful Great Chu people. Zarantu was furious in his heart, and when he defeated Tenig, the Great Chu people would also beg him to take the initiative to equip his troops.
A black torrent in the distance quickly approached, and the Tienig Department cheered loudly, it was the Jianrui battalion rapidly approaching the battlefield, seeing that steel torrent, Zarantu couldn't help but gasp, even if this army was an ordinary soldier, it was also shrouded in iron armor, and the iron face was also tightly covered by iron armor, making the whole look like a moving iron block.
"What are those iron compartments that go to the front?" Zarantu pointed to the front of the infantry phalanx, which was rumbling on the cart, and asked Mohodo.
Mo Huo shook his head, "I don't know, maybe this is the weapon of the Great Chu people." ”
Jiang Heiniu looked at the mottled army of Zarantu in the distance, shook his head, and said to the herald: "Send a signal to Tenig to give up the frontal battlefield and prepare to attack the flank, and the front is handed over to us." ”
As Tenig's troops slowly moved to the side, Zarantu's eyes narrowed again, this is **naked contempt, the other party wants to defend his 30,000 cavalry with 5,000 people, and in anger, he looked gloomily at the other party's neat small phalanx, and said: "Great Chu people, today I will let you see the bravery and determination of the Murwei people who are not afraid of death." ”
"Attack with all your troops!"
With Zarantu's order, the torrent-like cavalry rushed up on the vast battlefield, like waves of floods, rolling towards the Jianrui battalion not far away.
Jiang Heiniu looked at the swept cavalry and said with a smile: "No wonder the marshal must drag the Murwei people into this war, look at their horse control skills, they really don't lose to the grassland barbarians, a bow preparation, back shooting, ten shots!" ”
In the midst of the black torrent, a rain of arrows rose into the sky with a loose sound, flew to a high point, and fell suddenly, unhindered into the unprotected Murowei cavalry, bringing up a puff of blood, and pieces of people planted their horses. Sweep a large blank space into the charging ranks.
"Hundred rounds of crossbow, ready!" Jiang Heiniu silently counted the steps in his heart and gave an order at the right time. The hundred-shot crossbow that had made Hongbu Daishan and Huhe suffer a big loss once again showed a hideous ground hole.
A dense rain of arrows swept across the battlefield, and soldiers without armor often pierced through the crossbows before shooting into the bodies of their comrades behind them, like cutting leeks, sweeping the Murwei cavalry off their horses in rows.
Jiang Hei Niu waved his horse, and a small phalanx ran quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it merged into a huge phalanx, with spears like a forest, and in the whistle, he slowly advanced forward with neat steps.
After firing, the 100-round crossbow quickly retreated, and a technician had already held the boxes one by one and loaded the crossbow arrows into the 100-round crossbow cabinet again. The cavalry that was suppressed from the momentum of the charge was quickly cut into, divided, and annihilated by the Dingzhou foot soldiers, and the huge gap in equipment between the two showed the difference at this time, a knife went down, and the Dingzhou soldiers only deviated slightly, so that these knives were cut obliquely, often leaving only a trace on the armor, and could not cause any damage to the soldiers, and these cavalry as long as they were hit by a knife and a shot, they immediately lost their combat effectiveness, and what was even more terrifying was that these foot soldiers were also equipped with hand crossbows, and under the powerful surprise attack of the hand crossbows, the cavalry dismounted one by one, It was simply impossible to give full play to the superiority of the cavalry.
Zarantu was stunned, and Tienig was stunned, the way of fighting they believed in was so unbearable in front of these Great Chu troops, and the soldiers who had not yet come into contact with each other had already suffered such heavy losses, and on the battlefield between the two armies, countless corpses of soldiers and horses were lying lying on the ground. When the first wave of attacks was over, the formation of the Dingzhou army was re-formed, and the hundred-shot crossbows appeared in front of the foot soldiers again, Zarantu's army finally lost the will to fight, let out a shout, and fled back.
The drums of war rumbled, and the phalanx of infantry marched forward in orderly steps. And on the flanks, the excited Tenig commanded his cavalry and cut into the flank of Zarantu.
Jiang Heiniu shook his head slightly, "The marshal is really right, to fight a war is to fight for silver, like ours, every arrow goes out, but it is almost a few dollars of silver, the armor of these soldiers, that one does not cost dozens of taels of silver, and tens of thousands of arrows that were shot out in an instant, tsk, poor, I really can't afford to fight!" ”
