Chapter 570: Northern Xinjiang (8)
A young man opened the curtain of the tent and walked in, just in time to see Yamu drinking.
Yamu glanced at the young man, and said with some anger: "I have fought for so many years, and it is the first time that I have retired so early, and my subordinates are a little dissatisfied, aren't they all the ideas given by your kid?" ”
The young man was holding a freshly roasted leg of lamb in his hand, still steaming, and sprinkled with two spices from the countries of the Western Regions, one was called chili, which was made into a powder and sprinkled on the roast meat to increase the taste, and the other was called cumin, which looked small, but it was sprinkled on the roast meat to increase the fragrance.
They are all newly discovered good things by the grassland people, and they don't need to be secretly purchased from the Central Plains countries, they can be obtained openly from the countries of the Western Regions, and they have become popular things in Northern Xinjiang for a while.
This special fragrance immediately attracted Yamu, who was originally a good eater and drinker, but now that he has food and wine, the unhappiness in his heart seems to have been alleviated a little.
The young man put the leg of mutton in front of Yamu, took the initiative to cut off the fattest leg of mutton meat with a dagger, handed it to Yamu, and said while cutting: "General Yamu, you see that we are tired of eating the roast leg of mutton, and after adding two new spices, the taste is so attractive, and the wine you drink, which is also the strong liquor that we learned to grow from the Central Plains and then made by the method called distillation, are all new things that we have not used before, but they have no small benefits, and the same is true for battles. Our ancestors would not have the same equipment and tactics as we do today, these are all in line with the times, shouldn't we also adapt to the changes and keep innovating? ”
Hearing this, Yamu paused, and then continued to drink and eat meat, looking a little disagreeable, or unconvinced.
"You kid is quite able to speak, just like the Central Plains people, I heard that the Central Plains people don't read a lot of books, drag the thunder." Yamu continued to drink and eat meat, although there was no obvious intention, but it was clear that if Tuo Lei did not give him a good explanation and convince him, the way of fighting tomorrow would definitely return to tradition.
And this young man turned out to be a tow mine, a young man who was defeated by Yan Xuelan before and escaped by luck.
He successfully left Beiyan and returned to the grassland.
And the Sky Wolf Bow was no longer by his side at this time.
It's already in the hands of the tow.
Although he lost three elite thousand horsemen, he was able to successfully obtain the Sirius Bow, and he was very willing to drag it.
Although the conditions for the use of this Sirius Bow are a bit harsh, it is not unattainable for Drag.
And the tow thunder who successfully came back with the wolf bow is naturally a great reward for being dragged down, gold and silver jewelry, incense car beauties, martial arts exercises, and at the same time can be used as a close guard, as a righteous son, it can already be said that it is the most important one among the many righteous sons of drag.
Drag Mi has a direct subordinate elite Wan Qi, which are all his elite henchmen, and the top of them is the personal guards, each of them is a Drag Dense diehard, in addition to being brainwashed, more are Drag Mi cultivated talents, he is firmly in his own hands, no outsiders have ever been able to enter, Drag Lei is the first to enter and not be dragged by the use of special means, you can imagine, this time the wolf bow to Drag Lei plus many points.
At this time, the Bojin clan was going to carry out a plan to go south, and as the commander of the left general, he was responsible for carrying it out.
Because there was no need to achieve much combat results, the main reason was to attract the attention of the Northern Yan people, so Tuomi sent his veteran Yamu out.
And Tuo Lei also applied for mixed qualifications at this time.
At this time, Tuo Mi had already tasted the sweetness of the Sirius Bow, and he valued Tuo Lei, who was not ignorant of gold and was not greedy, thinking that he was really loyal to himself, so he let Tuo Lei go out with Yamu, and mixed his qualifications on the surface.
However, Tuo Mi secretly also informed Yamu to let the young people show their faces more, and Tuo Lei has a good performance in commanding troops in the elite ten thousand cavalry on weekdays, and he has also read a lot of books on the Central Plains country, maybe he can play a miraculous effect when fighting against the Northern Yan people.
If it weren't for Tuo Mi's words, Yamu would not have listened to these opinions of Tuo Leiti.
He has been a general under Tuomi for so many years, and Tuomi attaches so much importance to Tuo Lei, if he doesn't let this kid behave, Tuomi knows that he won't have good fruit to eat.
Tuo Lei stuffed himself with a piece of barbecue, and closed his eyes with some happiness, sure enough, the barbecue was delicious, especially after adding two spices, it tasted better, and now people's lives are really good.
Only then did he speak, "General Yamu, although we didn't achieve much success today, and we didn't even touch the city wall a few times, we successfully mobilized the enthusiasm of those slaves, didn't we?" ”
Yamu snorted coldly with some dissatisfaction, "What's the use of those slaves?" It's all cannon fodder. ”
Tuo Lei smiled, "That's right, they are cannon fodder, but today we just gave them a little favor, they are excited, tomorrow when they fight, they must be brave to be the first, and the military heart is available." ”
"Where did they get the military spirit, they are just to serve as shields and pioneers for our warriors." Yamu still has something to say.
Tuo Lei then opened his mouth to explain carefully to Ya Muzai, Ya Mu rarely showed a thoughtful expression, and finally considering Tuo Mi's trust, and Tuo Lei's statement is indeed very tempting, not to mention the Beiyan people, even he can't imagine such a method for the time being.
If it is really according to what Tuo Lei said, the role of these slaves is still not small.
Then Yamu called a few generals to go down to arrange, as for the Yelu tribe, Yamu went to it in person and communicated with Yelu Liangcai, and the Yelu tribe also agreed to the battle plan.
I don't know what happened in the camp of the steppe people that day, but I only know that there were many excited voices, as if they were not camping in the garrison but holding a celebration party.
And then the next day.
The flames on Daxing Pass had been extinguished, and all the soldiers were waiting for the arrival of the steppe people.
But from morning to night, there was no movement, it was impossible to withdraw the troops, the steppe people over there were still active, and they must have been planning something if they didn't come out.
Wu Tong also specially ordered the soldiers to pay attention to the possible night attack of the steppe people.
As a result, nothing happened, as if the steppe people were resting.
And so it came the third day. Love to read ikashub
That familiar smoke and dust finally appeared in front of everyone in Daxingguan again.
The defenders of Daxingguan are still those people, and taking advantage of the time when the grassland people did not attack yesterday, they repaired a lot of damaged parts of the city wall, and repaired the damaged city defense equipment as long as it can be repaired.
This time, the steppe people were again infested with large brigades, and the number of catapults was restored to sixty.
It's just that these newly built catapults are made of average materials, and their performance doesn't seem to be as perfect as the ones they made before, but even so, they were pushed up by the steppe people and prepared to be used as siege equipment.
The next routine is similar to the previous one, still the catapult attacks, and it can be clearly found that the newly built catapults have a big gap in range from the previous ones.
For this reason, these smaller catapults had to go a little more forward to be used normally.
However, they are also very cautious, relatively scattered, and at the same time have the masters of the steppe warriors to protect, and the ballistae in Daxingguan are already difficult to determine the results of the battle like last time.
On the contrary, because these smaller catapults exposed the location of many ballistas, they were set on fire by the steppe people.
Compared to a three- or four-meter-long crossbow arrow, a boulder larger than five or six people is really not so easy to solve.
So the catapults did not destroy a few, but several ballistae were targeted.
Then suddenly the horn sounded again on the steppe man's side.
The crossbowmen at the head of the city immediately raised their guard, believing that the steppe people were about to charge, but to their surprise, there were no soldiers or slaves charging.
On the contrary, the bags of earth thrown from the catapults were thrown out of the catapults, and some of them hit the inside of the city wall with too much force, and some of them landed on the city wall, even if they were of average strength, they hit the outside of the city wall.
Wu Tong's face changed, the grassland people actually came up with a new way to pile up the dirt slope, so many soil bags can't intercept too much even if they aim halfway, compared to the huge stones, these soil bags are more convenient and can be thrown at a longer distance. And after the weight is reduced, the speed of pulling is also a lot faster, especially after determining the direction and strength, these speeds are accelerated a lot.
Those slaves worked very hard, these bags of dirt are the result of their continuous excavation, the steppe people have a rule that as long as the slave belonging to each catapult can be projected to the corresponding number of times today, you can add food, can be accurately positioned can be promoted to the head of the slave, can destroy the enemy's ballista, after confirming the success, the owner of the catapult is promoted to the tribal warrior.
Therefore, these people who pull catapults are reluctant to go down, eager to stick themselves to the catapult, even if they are exhausted, they are reluctant to go down, if they are lucky, they can change their fate, how can they go down.
Their enthusiasm was very high, and they didn't need to be urged by the slave leader, they were very conscious of loading and launching
Even a few slave leaders were itchy and actively joined the battle.
The slaves who couldn't play in the back were anxious to stare dryly, eager to rush up by themselves, but unfortunately there were steppe people who restrained the formation, and they didn't dare to make a mistake.
In the position of the Chinese army in the back, Yamu looked at the slaves who were scrambling, and there was a little smile on his face, which was really useful.
On the side, Yelu Liang quietly patted Yamu's ass.
"General Yamu is an experienced veteran, and he can come up with such a method, so that it is estimated that it will not be long before we can pile up the dirt slope and let the warriors attack."
Yamu heard the compliment, and the smile on his face became more, "Where, where, it's just a little work, not worthy of praise, today should be able to teach those Beiyan people a good lesson, I have already ordered to go down, let the warriors on the front line cooperate, you and I will watch the battle here, and see the new tactics." ”
It's a pleasure to be praised, especially in the way of using soldiers, which makes Yamu even more happy.
Although these arrangements on the front line were all put forward by Tuo Lei, but in fact, the person who gave the order was Yamu, so rounding this new tactic was arranged by Yamu, and if it could cause a large number of casualties to the Northern Yan people, this credit should also be attributed to him.
Tuo Lei is on the front line at this time, Yamu has authorized him to give him a part of the command, let Tuo Lei use his new tactics, but the condition is that there must be corresponding results today, and if you want more command power, you can, but you must show the results to speak, otherwise even if there is a secret instruction, Yamu will not relax.
Tuo Lei continued to direct the catapults to fire earthen bags, and there was a tendency to fill in the passes, and at the same time, he constantly asked people to record the positions of the ballistae in Daxing Pass, mark them all, and concentrate high-quality catapults for targeted attacks.
Many people simply think that catapults can only throw stones, as if they have forgotten that other things are okay too.
The dirt slope below the head of Daxing Pass is growing at a rate visible to the naked eye, and burning with fire oil can at best prevent people from approaching, but it can't stop long-range suppression.
No one inside the gate can go out, and if the door is opened, it won't be closed in two or three minutes.
If they can't go out to clean up, they can only watch the increase in the soil slope, and even knock down the dirt bags that can be touched as much as they can, but this can only tamp the lower layer, and it doesn't play a big role in time.
The slaves below worked very hard, and soon replaced the second batch, and some of the lucky ones in the first batch were also directly promoted, and they were carried out on the spot, so that all the slaves could see it.
Real people and real things, not deception, the enthusiasm of the slaves is even higher.
Soon, the dirt slope was almost built, and although there was still some distance, it was nothing for a person who was quick to reach out.
Tuo Lei ordered people to replace some dirt bags to throw, the volume of these dirt bags is a bit surprising compared to the previous ones, but the weight seems to be a little lighter, but these slaves no one questioned, but they have accelerated their efforts, and more dirt bags are launched.
At the same time, Tuo Lei also began to order another group of slaves to charge Daxing Pass with simple weapons and armor.
These slaves were also promised to be treated accordingly as long as they had something to gain, and the conditions were much more generous than before, as well as simple armor and swords, much better than the previous wooden clubs and bare hands, and they were naturally ready to serve with great interest.
