Chapter 355: Heavy Cavalry!
July 11th, the day after the end of the Battle of Long Fei.
A new day is coming. It didn't change because of last night's fierce battle, and even the players in the entire Liangzhou didn't realize that in the past night, there was a tragic, bloody, and tragic battle in the southernmost part of Jincheng County.
An hour after the end of the battle, the corpses of the soldiers killed on both sides had been refreshed by the system, leaving no trace, and even the blood that had spilled everywhere last night had disappeared without a trace. The only thing that can show yesterday's battle is the wooden city wall in front of Longfei Town, which is gone.
During the campaign, Fengxiang mobilized all the troops in Liangzhou, and under the guidance of the strategy of "luring the enemy to go deep, closing the door and beating the dogs", at a heavy price, he completely annihilated the crazy attack of the 6ooo prison sister Qiang people. With less than 2,000 troops, and 500 of them were recruits who had just been formed for only two days, they completed the feat of completely killing the 6,000-strong troops of the Qiang people!
The NPCs of Longfei Town have begun to rebuild the city walls, as well as several arrow towers that were destroyed in last night's battle, and all the craftsmen, villagers, and warriors have thrown themselves into the ranks of rushing to build fortifications, except for the seriously wounded combatants. Longfei Town did not fall in last night's bloody battle, and the survivors of this battle will continue to bear the responsibility of building and defending Longfei.
To paraphrase the voiceover at the end of the stand-alone version of "Heroes of the Three Kingdoms 2": the loyal and brave soldiers have taken off their heavy battle robes. The souls of the deceased are also laid to rest under the Yellow Spring, and the loess is not stained red with blood, nor is the earth flooded by the undead......
Ah Niu's mood was very heavy, and when he heard Chen Gong report on the casualty figures last night, this heaviness was even heavier.
First Dead: 369 killed.
Wing Battalion: 158 killed.
Darkflower: 113 killed.
Shanzi Battalion: 126 killed.
In fact, among Fengxiang's leading generals and high-level martial artists, except for the god-like Li Jin, the rest of the generals were all injured by different Cheng DΓΉ. Even a master martial artist like Li Qi was also in the battle last night, and the fierceness of the battle can be seen!
Ju Yi didn't have any more problems other than taking an arrow when he was rushing to the aid of Dark Flower; Although Di Yun was the last to participate in the battle, he was also slightly injured under the counterattack of the Qiang people who were still fighting in the trapped beasts; It was He Qian who was the most seriously injured, in fact, the battle in Babao Valley was not over, and He Qian had already fainted when the first dead soldiers covered up the defeated Qiang people.
In the eyes of Chen Gong and others, He Qian's injuries are not only physical, but also psychological. In Fengxiang's long war history, the elite, battle-hardened Darkflower Special Forces have never suffered such heavy sacrifices, and the Liangzhou Darkflower Troops have been reduced by half in this battle! He Qian's heartache can be imagined.
In fact, the hardest hit was Ju Yi's first dead soldier, and the battle damage of nearly 400 people made the first dead soldier who had finally reached the scale of more than 600 people, only less than half survived. If it weren't for the bloody battle of the first deceased, Longfei's defense battle would not only be difficult to complete the goal of annihilating the Qiang people, but it was also very likely that he would not be able to win this meat grinder-style battle.
After Ju Yi finished the battle, in addition to answering the questions of Ah Niu and Chen Gong. He remained silent.
"Don't be sad, the efforts of the first deceased will not be in vain. Last night, he fought on two fronts, not only did he not fear the enemy's arrows to protect the remaining martial artists of Dark Flower, but also in the battle in front of the town, he protected the recruits of the Shanzi battalion well, and no one will forget the sacrifice of the first dead soldier in this battle! The first to ascend to the dead is worthy of being one of the strongest troops in our Fengxiang! I'm so proud of you! β
After Ah Niu learned about the battle in front of the town, he gave Ju Yi a little comfort in time, and the eyes of this tower-like man suddenly turned red. Nodding silently, he drew the bow and arrow from his arm without saying a word, and after bandaging it for a while, he returned to the temporary assembly point of the first dead with his head down, and gathered the bodies of the war dead with his surviving brothers.
The pain in his heart cannot be digested in a short period of time, but Ju Yi's back is still so upright, and his steps are still so firm.
The casualty rate of the Flying Wing Battalion was obviously much lower, and the main reason why this cavalry unit had such an excellent appearance in the first battle was Li Jin's bravery. The demon god-like Li Jin fully demonstrated his mortal combat power, and was invincible in the battle against the Qiang people, making many soldiers in Longfei Town admire Li Jin's martial arts in their hearts, and after this battle, Li Jin had a nickname:
Kill the gods!
God blocks and kills God! Buddha blocks and kills Buddha!
In the sky and on the ground, there is no opponent that Li Jin does not dare to touch, and the reason why the Flying Wing Battalion was able to exert strong combat power in this extremely tragic first battle was mostly inspired by Li Jin. Even in last night's battle, Li Jin fought back and forth among the Qiang warriors, without even the slightest injury, all the blood. It's all the enemy's!
This is the encouragement that Li Jin said with his actions!
After calculation, among the four troops, the lowest battle loss rate was the newly formed Shanzi Battalion. Of course, everyone understood that if it weren't for the care of the two hundred-man teams of the first deceased soldiers, and then the flying wing battalion stubbornly withstanding the attack of several times the number of enemy troops on their side, it was difficult to predict how much the 500 Shanzi battalion would have survived. Even if the entire camp is wiped out, no one will find it strange at all!
However, after experiencing the bloody wind and rain of this battle, these recruits of the Liangzhou Shanzi Battalion will at least not be afraid of life and death, and what they lack is only training in combat skills and formations. In last night's battle, two demobilized generals who were temporarily in charge of the Yakuji battalion were killed on the spot shortly after the battle began, and the new demobilized generals had already taken over the whip of the Yamagi battalion.
The wildfire can't be blown endlessly, and the spring breeze blows and grows!
Instructed Chen Gong to supplement the villagers in Longfei Town to each army according to their quality conditions. Ah Niu knew that at this stage, what Longfei Town needed was not craftsmen and ordinary villagers, but warriors who could defend the territory and survive!
Due to the particularity of the Dark Flower and the First Dead, it is almost impossible to replenish it immediately, but the Flying Wing Battalion can be rebuilt, and the highlight of this is the Yamaji Battalion.
Feng Xiang's special troops and elite troops can no longer withstand such a cruel and vomit-making war! The heavy responsibility of defending Longfei Town will gradually be transferred to the Shanzi Battalion. As a result, the Shanzi battalion in Longfei Town was soon expanded to 1,000 people, and the arduous training began the day after the war.
When a certain city lord saw the harvest of this battle, his frowning brows relaxed slightly.
Although the corpses of the six thousand Qiang warriors have been refreshed, the weapons and equipment they carry have become Fengxiang's trophies, and for a long time, the blacksmiths in Longfei Town do not need to be busy to build weapons, but this does not mean that they can take it easy, and the repair and reforging of many weapons are enough for the blacksmiths to be busy for a while.
The biggest harvest is the war horse captured in the battlefield in front of the town!
3oo After the cavalry of the Qiang people was completely annihilated. The war horse naturally became the winner's head, in addition to the injured and dead Xiqiang war horses, 2,216 healthy high-grade Xiqiang war horses were obtained! According to the guaranteed value of 6ooo gold for each Xiqiang war horse, Feng Xiang will receive 133o gold for the harvest of the war horse alone!!
What an amazing fortune!
War is brutal and bloody, but it is also likely to bring great benefits, which is why war has always been the main theme throughout human history.
Feng Xiang has made good gains in all previous battles, but I have to admit that the benefits obtained from this Longfei defense battle are far more than the sum of the previous battles! Although the cavalry of the Qiang people is perverted, the additional products they give away are definitely worth the money!
The Battle of Longfei was one of the most tragic battles in the history of the Fengxiang War, strictly speaking, so far, the word "one" can be completely erased. Even if Feng Xiang was in the township stage, the bloody battle with Xiao Tianshi** was far less tragic than the battle of Long Fei.
Feng Xiang's strength was less than one-third of the enemy's strength (in fact, it was completely possible to ignore the five hundred Shanzi battalion recruits, so it seems that the strength was only a quarter of the Qiang people), and the preparation time was insufficient, he managed to withstand the attack of the Qiang people who fought bravely, and successfully annihilated all the enemies!
Such a record is definitely a miracle!
Li Jin appeared in front of Ah Niu, hugged his fists and said: "Lord, my subordinates have a little idea about the cavalry troops, please rule on the lord." β
"Tell me about it."
"The cavalry of our Flying Wing Battalion are all high-grade war horses, which are extremely fast but lack stamina, and they cannot equip the soldiers with excessive armor, let alone put on special armor for their mounts, and they have nothing in peacetime. But it can be a fatal heel in a tough battle. In this battle, the shortcomings of the Flying Wing Battalion's low defensive strength were clearly revealed, and if it were not for this, the casualty rate of the troops should be controlled at a relatively low level. Li Jin hadn't changed his battle robe yet, so he hurried over and said solemnly.
Ah Niu's eyes lit up, and he already understood what Li Jin meant.
"Do you want to build the Flying Wing Battalion into a heavy cavalry, using the captured Xiqiang war horses?"
"Yes."
Li Jin's eyes glowed with an astonishing look, and seeing that Ah Niu didn't interrupt him, he continued:
"The endurance and gravity of the Xiqiang war horse are better than the Wuhuan war horse, such a war horse can fully support the heavy armor of the cavalry, and even it is not difficult to make the war horse into an iron horse! Although the degree is not as good as the Wuhuan war horse, the proficiency characteristics of the subordinate cavalry can also improve the degree of the troops, and there is still a certain advantage in dealing with the general Liangzhou cavalry, and it is even more difficult to deal with the infantry! Heavy cavalry with strong defense. Whether it is charging or blocking, the combat effectiveness is very amazing, so my subordinates are thinking that if we can equip the cavalry with armor similar to that of the trapped camp, plus the special armor of the war horse......"
"Okay, do what you think, all the Flying Wing Battalion will be transferred to Xiqiang War Horses, and the Flying Wing Battalion will be expanded to a thousand troops, and you can give priority to choosing the mount of the troops from the captured war horses. What Li Jin has to do now is to train an elite heavy armored cavalry for our Fengxiang, and after I return to Fengxiang, I will let the equipment center and the blacksmiths of Ouye Town make every effort to solve the armor problem of cavalry and war horses! β
"Thank you, my lord!"
Li Jin was in ecstasy, and after saluting again, he threw off his steps and left "soaring".
Feng Xiang's heavy cavalry is finally about to come to the forefront!
"Gongtai, did we pay such a big price this time, is it a strategic mistake? If we don't pursue total annihilation, we may only need to pay a third of the price to defeat the Qiang. β
Chen Gong's wise gaze was also a little sad, the victory of Long Fei's defense battle was not enough to make Chen Gong ecstatic, in fact, when Ah Niu had not rushed back to Long Fei Town from the bottom, Chen Gong had already carried out a deep reflection.
"My lord, our forces are at a disadvantage, and we still choose to completely annihilate the enemy as the ultimate goal, which is indeed a failure from a tactical point of view. But the significance of this battle is not to defeat the Qiang people, but to form the greatest deterrent to the Qiang people, and then enable Longfei Town to achieve long-term peace and development, from a strategic point of view, we have no choice! Chen Gong's clear eyes told of helplessness and firmness.
Ah Niu was silent for a long time, and sighed: "Listening to you say this, I feel much more comfortable." That's right, for the sake of a lasting peace, our sacrifice was worth it! Thankfully. This time, none of the Qiang people ran away, and we won this big gamble, but whether we can really bring peace to Longfei Town depends on the activities of Mangzhong and the reaction of the Qiang King. β
Chen Gong also smiled bitterly, "The lord doesn't have to worry, from the perspective of his subordinates, presumably the Qiang people have begun to panic at this time." From the description of the lord to Mangzhong, his subordinates believe that this person is also quite resourceful, and under the guidance of the situation, the possibility of success is very great! β
"But...... What if you fail to deceive the Qiang? β
"If such a situation occurs, there is no need for subordinates to say anything, and the lord will definitely ...... immediately Although it is a pity, the harvest of more than 22oo war horses is enough to offset our efforts. β
I have to admit that among all the NPCs in Fengxiang, Chen Gong is the one who knows Ah Niu's thoughts the most. With Ah Niu's love as his life, he will never let Fengxiang's soldiers continue to sacrifice in vain when he knows that he can't do anything, and the only way is to give up Longfei Town!
Ah Niu turned his head to look at the depths of the Eight Treasure Valley, and at the end of the Eight Treasure Valley, was the Qiang realm, "That's right, but I believe that Mangzhong will not let us down!" After we expanded the Flying Wing Battalion and the Shanzi Battalion this time, there was very little non-combat population left in the territory, and almost the whole town was a soldier. β
"My subordinates understand." Longfei Town's strange population ratio now is obviously a rare spectacle, in addition to the fact that Longfei Town is originally a special territory of Fengxiang, and the number of troops is not limited by the size of the territory, the most important thing is Fengxiang's strong economic strength, otherwise it is tantamount to relying on one Longfei Town to feed so many warriors.
This trait of Longfei Town cannot be replicated until a second lord obtains the special territory building blueprints.

On July 15th, when the camp was fought.
A few days after the Qiang King Conference ended, it reopened, and the leaders of various ethnic groups gathered again to serve as Qiang.
The focus of the discussion is naturally Longfei Town.
When the King of Qiang concisely told the situation of the prison sister Qiang's attack on Longfei Town, although the Qiang king did not know the actual situation of the war, it was only the result of the "disappearance" of all the prison sister Qiang 6ooo people, which made the Qiang leaders attending the meeting gasp.
"Sister Qiang's 6ooo warriors are all 'missing'? How can it be!!!! β
"Yes, a first-class township, even if all the villagers have the strength of warriors, it is only 22oo population, how can it resist the attack of 6ooo warriors? The local dispute should not be untrue, only 6oo people were sent out, but they are boasting here! β
Hearing such an argument, Tu Zheng had the heart to die at this time.
Originally, Sister Qiang was happy with herself, although her reputation was not good, but it was better than suffering a heavy loss. Why did the ghost envoy come to attend the Qiang King Conference last time, and the ghost envoy took over the errand of attacking Longfei Town? What medicine did you take wrong?
Tuzheng originally thought that if he wanted to destroy a first-class township like Longfei Town, it would be impossible to encounter too much trouble. After all, the number of the population is there, and Tu Zheng still wants to take advantage of this attack on Longfei Town to pinch a soft persimmon, so as to save some prestige for the prison sister Qiang and return to the mainstream group of the Qiang people, who would have thought......
The 6ooo warriors who attacked Longfei Town were all "missing", and there was no whereabouts for so many days, in fact, it can be asserted that all these clansmen have been killed in battle. Six thousand elite warriors, the elite troops of Sister Qiang were almost destroyed, and the two generals who were the best at fighting were also on the list of Prison Sister Qiang's expeditions.
After this battle, the prison sister Qiang was greatly damaged, and she could no longer be as suspicious of the Qiang people of other ethnic groups as she was before the war, and wanted to annex other ethnic groups. Sister Qiang has been reduced from a strong man to a midstream Qiang ethnic group.
"Fart! Do you want to send troops to try it again? Our prison sister Qiang has paid the price of 6,000 warriors this time, and you are still sneering here, where is the reason! β
In a fit of rage, Tu Zheng suddenly did not choose to speak. It wasn't until King Qiang's majestic gaze swept over that Tu Zheng shut up stupidly.
"Sister Qiang did send 6,000 troops this time, there is no doubt about this. How to deal with it next, you may as well talk freely. King Qiang said solemnly.
"What's there to think about! Longfei Town is held outside the Eight Treasure Valley, and if you want to enter the territory of Liangzhou through the secret passage, you must break through this stronghold. There seems to be no better way than to send troops to attack again. A collar said with a frown.
Such a view has been recognized by many Qiang leaders, but an old collar with a beard as white as snowflakes obviously dismisses such a view.
"It is impossible for a first-level township to eat our six thousand Qiang warriors, and according to the Qiang King, Sister Qiang sent the strongest warriors and the strongest generals, and there are also careful arrangements and deployments to attack Longfei Town in a two-sided way. Unable to break through the enemy's stronghold, the situation is very strange. β
"Well, that night, the prison sister Qiang 3ooo troops entered the secret passage and never came back, and the next morning I sent my clansmen into the secret passage and secretly went to inquire about the news, but there was no figure of the current prison sister Qiang warriors. In addition, my people now, outside the secret passage of the Eight Treasure Valley, there are many Han fortifications, and they are still being built. Mangzhong had been silent before, and after seeing someone say different opinions, he seemed to speak very abruptly.
"Fortifications?"
Mangzhong's words caused a burst of exclamations, and every leader understood what it meant to build fortifications at the bottom of the Eight Treasures Valley. And King Qiang has already sent someone to review the authenticity of the matter, confirming that what Mangzhong said is true.
The matter of the secret passage has been revealed by the Han people!
The Han people have been wary, and trying to sneak attack from the secret passage is tantamount to sending them to death.
Being able to quietly annihilate all the prison sister Qiang 6ooo warriors, the strength that Longfei Town has is by no means at the level of a first-class township!
"It's definitely a trap!"
"The Han people have already discovered the secret road, I'm afraid the next step is to pass the secret road and infiltrate into the territory of our Qiang people!"
"No, the possibility of us trying to smuggle into the country through the secret passage is gone, and the secret passage must be blocked immediately to prevent the Han people from sneaking up on us!"
Tu Zheng's face was pale, so many Qiang leaders, when they learned that there were fortifications in the Babao Valley, none of them advocated fighting again. This also means that there will be no one else to avenge Sister Qiang's blood feud.
"Haven't you thought about sending a large army to strangle it in the cradle while this Longfei Town is still in its infancy? Is the blood of our prison sister Qiang 6ooo warriors shed in vain? β
The almost hysterical roar of the soil caused a brief chill in the tent. The old leader said earnestly:
"We empathize with the mood of the soil dispute, but we also hope that the soil struggle will not be rash, the current situation no longer allows us to make mistakes again, so that more Qiang people shed blood. The combat power of the prison sister Qiang warriors is so strong, and in the case of a sneak attack, the whole army was wiped out in Longfei Town, and now that the Han people are on guard, if they want to raid again, is it possible to succeed? β
"Yes, we don't want the blood of our sister and brother to be shed in vain, but there are already fortifications outside the secret passage, and the Han people will naturally be heavily guarded, who can rush out? Even if you rush out, you'll die! The other leader echoed, after all, Sister Qiang also suffered losses for the cause of the Qiang people this time, and these leaders could fully understand the reaction of the land dispute.
"We can also send warriors to infiltrate Liangzhou in batches, and then gather outside Longfei Town to attack! Last time, I did just that, and it took a day and two nights to send 3ooo people to Liangzhou. "The local dispute is still unwilling.
"It's useless. Last time, you mobilized 6ooo people, didn't you even have a blister? If more than 10,000 troops are mobilized, the Han people will definitely realize that it will be our Qiang people who will suffer at that time. Longfei Town's defense has definitely been strengthened now. β
Saying a thousand ways and ten thousand, no one thought that Longfei Town had already broken its muscles and bones, and according to common sense, Longfei Town, which can completely destroy the 6ooo Qiang people, must have terrifying strength!
It's always easier to defeat than to annihilate them all!
Now the Qiang king and many Qiang leaders are worried that the Han people will attack the Qiang people through the secret road, so that the territory of the Qiang people will be enveloped in war.
"Since we have promised to guard the secret exit, we will definitely keep our promises, and we will never change because of the strength of the Han people! In this way, the construction will block the secret passage, and we will still be stationed outside the secret passage, and strictly defend it, even if the Han people want to dig through the secret passage, we can know in advance, and swear to contribute all our strength to the peace and tranquility of the Qiang grassland! β
Mangzhong seemed to be very helpless and said, such a statement added to the favor and respect of other Qiang leaders for burning Dangqiang. If they knew Lei Feng's story, they would probably think that the Burning Qiang people were even greater than Uncle Lei Feng!
The trend of the times, King Qiang has the final word.
The entrances and exits of the secret passages in the territory of the Qiang people were blocked and guarded by the burning Qiang to prevent the Qiang grassland from being attacked by the Han people.
Prison Sister Qiang, who suffered heavy losses in the attack on Longfei Town, received some material and livestock donated by various ethnic groups to compensate for her losses.
The various ethnic groups of the Qiang began to recuperate in order to accumulate strength and prepare for future attacks on the Han Chinese.
"After all these years of conquest, we Qiang people should take a good rest."
This is the will of the king of Qiang, and it is also what many leaders are happy to see.
Feng Xiang's Dragon Fly Defense Battle has finally achieved the greatest success! (To be continued)
