Chapter 569: Northern Xinjiang (7)
Although this time it is still a crowd tactic, it is not the same as before.
The prairie people have also learned to do earthwork!
In the previous equipment war, the slaves in the back did not stand and watch the play, they dug up the surrounding soil with sacks one by one, and then tamped it to make dirt bags one by one.
These bags were large and thick enough to cover their bodies.
Then the slaves put the earthen bags in front of them and ran towards Daxingguan.
Even if he charged against the rain of arrows, his heart was a lot more steady, and when the arrows were shot on the dirt bag, they were resisted, and they often needed to attach more True Qi to be able to penetrate.
This increased the consumption of the true qi of the archers of the Daxing Pass defenders.
At the same time, these slaves carried the dirt bags to the bottom of the city wall of Daxingguan, dropped the dirt bags and ran back from both sides like crazy, even if they were not afraid of facing the city.
There are too many slaves below to count, and no amount of arrows will necessarily fall on them.
Anyway, just run.
Slaves who are able to successfully return to the ranks can rest for a while and wait for the next charge.
There are already regulations on the grassland people's side, as long as they can successfully carry the earthen bags to Daxing Pass, three round-trips, they can be promoted to slave leaders, and five round-trips can be exempted from the status of slaves, and enjoy the treatment that a tribal warrior should have.
Now the slaves' eyes were red, and one by one, as if they had taken medicine, they picked up the dirt bags and ran to the city wall.
After being slaves on the steppe for so many years, they all know how difficult it is to become a slave leader, and there are even fewer tribal warriors accepted by the steppe people.
The steppe people are stuck very dead in this regard, and the conditions are too harsh.
In the past, it was a head-iron charge, and only those who managed to survive in the end could become slave leaders.
Now you only need to run back and forth three times to become a slave leader, and instead of waiting until the end of the battle, you can be promoted directly on the battlefield and cash on the spot.
When you reach five times, you can get out of the status of slaves, such a temptation, the slaves can't resist the excitement of carrying the dirt bag, and some of them don't have time to rest after returning to pick up the second bag and rush up.
Wu Tong, the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army, have been fighting with the grassland people for so many years, and they have seen more slaves, and it is the first time they have seen such active slaves, and it is rare to see a feeling of high morale from them.
It is not known what methods the steppe people used to make these slaves so active.
But the practice of these slaves did cause a certain amount of trouble to Daxingguan, even if they used bows and arrows and crossbows to shoot, a large number of slaves fell, but there were still more slaves behind them who rushed up with earthen bags.
When he came to the city wall, he threw the dirt bag under the city and began to run back.
Soon the corpses and dirt bags were growing in height.
The intention of the steppe people did not need to be thought about anymore, that is, they wanted to pile up a slope with corpses and dirt bags.
It's a pity that this is the pass of the northern frontier, and there is no river nearby, and if there is a moat, it is more difficult for them to fill the moat.
In the moat of the upper city of the Yuanwu Continent, it is not simply the river water.
There can be all kinds of formations hidden inside, hidden weapons, and all kinds of strange beasts, dirt bags and corpses and the like that want to be piled up, it's just a dream, and you can beat them out casually.
However, there is no moat here in Daxingguan.
Moreover, Daxingguan is a defensive magic circle, and there is no means of attack, so there is no solution to deal with the higher and higher mounds below, unless they go out and clean them up, otherwise, it will only get higher and higher.
This method of soil work is very popular in the Central Plains, especially in the south.
As a result, I didn't expect the grassland people to learn it too, it seems that they have the guidance of a master this time.
Either a steppe person who knows a lot about the Central Plains country, such a person is the most terrifying, they learn experience, technology and knowledge from you, and then turn their heads and use what they have learned from you against you.
Either there are internal ghosts, such people often can't get along in their own countries, and they go to other countries to sell information and point out the country, and this kind of leading party is also extremely annoying.
Although Wu Tong is a soldier, it is the first time he has encountered this kind of different grassland army, but his experience still tells him that he can't let it go, and when the soil slope rises, the pressure on the soldiers at the head of the city will be greater.
He asked the archers to adjust their positions, and then shoot after they had moved closer, and the crossbow could not be stopped, killing and wounding the enemy as far as possible.
There are enough arrows from the crossbow, and they are fired almost non-stop, and even if there is a defense with an earthen bag, it can only resist one or two, and it is impossible to go unscathed.
The repeater is responsible for harvesting slaves from afar, forming a rain of arrows defense, and the fish that slip through the net are targeted by archers.
It's not like the free fire it used to be.
After Wu Tong's side made adjustments, the casualties of the slaves who suddenly charged began to intensify.
And in order to prevent the soil slope from being raised due to the increase of corpses and soil bags, Wu Tong ordered people to start pouring fire oil downward.
Then he threw torches directly down, fired rockets, and set those corpses on fire in minutes.
Moreover, Wu Tong ordered to throw the high-concentration product in the fire oil, fierce fire oil, which has stronger combustibility. The smoke produced is also smaller.
It can continue to burn for a long time, and if there is no external force, it is possible to burn for a day and a night.
This kind of fierce fire oil is not afraid of water, but it will be more violent when it encounters water, and it is difficult to suppress it if it is not for the influence of the martial artist to use his vitality.
The fire burned brightly. Not only were the bodies burning, but even the dirt slope below was burning after it was contaminated with fire oil.
Suddenly, a wall of fire rose in front of the slaves who were charging below.
At this time, it is also a dream to go up and throw dirt bags. v3 academy v3sy
The martial arts on the city wall that can attract the direction of the wind are all used.
One of Wu Tong's lieutenant generals was a warrior with a mutated attribute of wood and a wind attribute, urging his true qi to form a series of small tornadoes, and using the fire to push outside the pass, the frightened slaves turned around and ran.
Compared with being burned to death in pain, being killed by the steppe people some, there is no need to feel the torture of being burned.
This time, the steppe people didn't hurt the killer, and such a fierce flame naturally couldn't go up.
However, there were quite a few whistling voices in their ranks, which were obviously provocative.
Then, after a muffled sound of bull's horns, the steppe people retreated and set up camp ten miles away from Daxingguan.
There is no need to worry about the smoke from the burning of the fierce fire oil on this side of Daxingguan, and the city wall has corresponding measures to prevent the enemy's fire attack.
The large bellows work on their own, blowing all the smoke and dust out so that it doesn't interfere too much with the soldiers defending the city. xx
Even if the grassland people retreated, the city head of Daxingguan did not mean to extinguish the fire, who knows if this is the routine of the grassland people, so naturally we must be cautious.
Wu Tong arranged for the deputy general to strengthen vigilance, and then dragged Yan Xuelan, Chen Zheng and others to the discussion.
Obviously, there was someone on the grassland people's side, and Wu Tong found that the grassland people's tactics had changed so much for the first time in so many years, and they were implemented so seriously.
Who is the commander on the other side?
Wu Tong knew that Yan Xuelan's Prosecutor's Department had good intelligence capabilities, and almost all of the grassland people's actions this time were carried out according to what they said at the beginning.
Now he wants to ask who the grassland general on the other side is
However, Chen Zheng really didn't know this question, their prosecutor's hand couldn't reach into the enemy's ranks, and if Yan Xuelan hadn't let him carry it down in advance, Chen Zheng wouldn't have known.
Yan Xuelan quietly hinted at Chen Zheng, and Chen Zheng suddenly understood.
"General Wu, the intelligence that my people investigated, I only know that the general on the opposite side is the Yamu of the Bojin tribe, the cultivation of the peak of the innate realm, a veteran of the Bojin tribe, and has led the soldiers of the Bojin tribe to the south many times, as for the Yelu tribe, it is a young man named Yelu Liangcai, a descendant of the Yelu tribe, who has not been in the army for many years, this time he should have come to take credit, and his ability to command operations should be very average." Chen Zheng told Wu Tong what Yan Xuelan told him orally.
"I've seen Yamu before, today's combat style is definitely not something he can do, but this Yelu Liangcai is a little suspicious, but how can he successfully persuade Yamu to let him command, I know that Yamu is the most authoritarian, ordinary people will not be taken by him, the people of the two tribes are so friendly" Wu Tong was a little puzzled, but the vigilance of Yelu Liangcai in his heart began to increase, and the young man's ideas were richer, and it was more like a tactic learned from the Central Plains, It seems that the tactics used by the Zhenbei Army must also be adjusted.
And Yan Xuelan, who seemed to be listening on the side, thought in her eyes, and always felt a sense of familiarity, afraid that it was not the opponent in her "memory", she was sure that she was not Yamu or Yelu Liangcai, there was someone else behind this.
Yamu is a veteran of the Bojin clan, and he has been a traditional combat style all his life, but with the changes of the times, the tactics are changing, and those who are opinionated will be crushed under the wheel of history when the time comes.
Yamu, a rigid veteran, has been using old-fashioned tactics, and it is almost difficult to achieve successful results, failing again and again, and finally becoming more and more unappreciated, and finally ending up depressed.
And Yelu Liang is a descendant of the Yelu tribe, martial arts cultivation is okay, but the command talent is unsightly, but fortunately, he has a good temperament and can listen to the opinions of others, and he will not let professional people be responsible.
is a relatively good noble child.
This time the battle is to come and mix the qualifications, and the two ten thousand horsemen of the Yelu tribe are also commanded by others.
But it's similar to Yamu, and I can't think of such a tactic.
The existence of this person was really a bit unexpected by Yan Xuelan, and there was a deviation from her "memory".
Then several people began to discuss defensive tactics, but more often than not, Wu Tong, Yan Xuelan, and several lieutenants discussed tactics, and Chen Zheng listened on the sidelines, and he didn't know much about this.
It was Yan Xuelan's military literacy that surprised Wu Tong and the others, His Royal Highness is not talking on paper, but his talent is not low, and he can be said to be the finishing touch in a few speeches.
At this time, the retreating steppe people had already set up tents ten miles away.
It seems that there is not much success today, but the mood of these people does not seem to be affected too much, although some of the grassland warriors have a little whisper, but under the majesty of Yamu, no one dares to make trouble.
On the contrary, the atmosphere of those slaves was aroused, some were excited, and some were constantly boasting about how good they were today, charging in the rain of arrows, and sending bags of earth to the city wall.
Especially today, there are a few lucky people, more than twenty more slave leaders, all of whom have successfully made three trips.
And two of the most striking of them are the more powerful ones, one of them ran five times, the other ran six times, and successfully got rid of the status of slaves and became a tribal warrior on the steppe.
This is no longer as simple as luck, and people who don't have some strength can't survive for too long in such an environment.
Let the surrounding slaves be excited, they are eating scraps and cold burning, and they have already become warriors of the tribe, they can drink broth and eat fresh dairy products.
Now they are more motivated, the steppe people have fulfilled their promise, as long as they can play well on the battlefield, there is no such possibility.
Who wants to live a life of slavery every day, and climb when there is a chance to climb up.
As for the Prairie Warriors who didn't play today. Their mood was not so happy, a little depressed, what kind of battle was this today, not even the blood of the enemy was tasted, only a few lucky ones succeeded in killing the escaped slaves, and the others had not seen blood, more or less unhappy.
However, these were all orders from Yamu, and they did not dare to disobey his orders.
The steppe must learn to obey, especially in battle, you must obey the orders from above, if anyone dares to disobey, the people above can take their lives at any time, and no one wants to joke with their own lives.
Anyway, the people above said that there will be a tough battle to be fought tomorrow, and today is just a tentative offensive wave, and the dead are all slaves, and the core combat power has not been affected, and many people are preparing for tomorrow's big war.
And in the big tent in the most central location.
The middle-aged man, whose hair has turned slightly white, and there are already a little traces of old age on his face, is still holding a wine glass in his hand, and is pouring wine, and his mood is not very high, this person is the commander of this partial division this time, Yamu.
Even in the steppe army, drinking alcohol in battle is against the rules, but no one will take care of him here.
And drinking not only can not paralyze Yamu's perception, but will make his mind more sober, and he is also one of the few people who drinks more and more energetically.
Although he gave this order, it didn't seem like he was very willing.
"General Yamu, this is borrowing wine to kill your sorrows"
