Chapter 728: Strange Soldiers

The battle of Xuanfu was fought too smoothly, although Xie Sicheng let him stay for a while, but the Tartar army only stayed in Xuanfu for three days before continuing to move forward.

Jiahai is very anxious, he wants to go all out to enter the Han people's North Zhili, enter the Han people's capital, and he wants to make the Han people's rich Chang'an Yanyu Jiangnan all become the horse farms of the Tartars.

Xie Sicheng thought that this was too hasty, but Jiahai did not listen to the dissuasion, and the army still left Xuanfu City.

No one thought that an army that suddenly appeared like a poisonous snake bit up from behind them, separating the Tartar army, this battle was ten days, Jiahai had never fought such a humiliating battle, that army was elusive, sometimes scattered into a small force, like a mosquito looking for trouble ran out and bitten, but when you want to reach out and shoot it to death, it does not know where to go, when you don't want to pay attention to it, continue to walk forward, it comes out again, but the terrain here is abrupt, the Tartar army is best at fighting on the plains, open and close, Now in this case, they are like blindfolded elephants, attacking everywhere, but they are like fists hitting cotton, it doesn't hurt, but you can't walk.

What's even more strange is that this army seems to be very poor, and every time after retreating, there is not even a single weapon left on the battlefield, and every knife and spear has to be picked up.

Jiahai didn't care, but Xie Sicheng paid attention.

When this situation occurs on the battlefield, it is generally not necessary for people to see the clues from the weapons, such as what kind of army it is and which group of people it belongs to.

But now with such a big battle, it is not difficult to find out where this army is, not to mention that they are wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, this army may not be Wu Tang's, but judging from their familiarity with the terrain, this army will not be temporarily transferred by the imperial court to reinforce.

So since they are officers and soldiers, why do they take away the blades on the battlefield.

Whether it is a small force or a large army, every time the battle is over, the Tartar army finds only weapons on the battlefield, and the other side has nothing left.

The Tatars did not pay attention to these details, but Xie Sicheng was secretly concerned, and he even went to look through each corpse himself, to check every place that was blocked by mountains and rocks.

The hard work paid off, and finally after a small battle, Xie Sicheng found the tip of a spear on the corpse of a Tartar soldier. The corpse was piled on top of several others, and it was stuck in the Tartar's body, and the spear with the severed wooden handle was left behind.

Xie Sicheng wiped away the stained blood, and his eyes were immediately attracted by the polished spear tip.

He had the Tartar spears fetched and contrasted them, and then he called the man in charge of the army's weapons, pointed to the tip of the spear, and asked, "Can our spears be sharpened like this?" ”

The man looked at it and shook his head: "Impossible, the iron spear will not become like this even if it is polished a hundred times." ”

"What do you mean, isn't it iron?"

"It's iron, but it's not ordinary iron, it's iron! Wait a minute, let me try. ”

When the man had finished speaking, he found a piece of cowhide, and he tried it on the tip of the spear, and the thick cowhide was immediately poked out of a hole.

"Lord Xie, this is indeed iron, in the past, Duoerha Khan once spent a lot of money to buy an iron sword from the caravan of the Silk Road, it is said that it was made by craftsmen in the Western Regions with only red-haired people have iron, the sword sharpened iron like clay, I was fortunate to see Dorha Khan pierce the armor with that sword, it was really a good sword, but unfortunately after Dorha Khan was captured, the sword did not know where to go, it may have fallen into the hands of the Han people."

It turned out to be iron.

Xie Sicheng had heard of iron, and when he added a little iron to make weapons, ordinary swords could become extremely sharp.

Although iron weapons are precious, they can be found by spending a lot of money by chance, and they are not a rare thing in the world.

But even so, it is rare to see outside, because iron weapons have always been the favorite of nobles and generals, and are often collected as family heirlooms.

Xie Sicheng had never heard of it, nor did he think that someone would use the precious iron to the weapons of ordinary soldiers.

This kind of handwriting is too big and too big.

Even if they have money, they can't buy so much iron, who is under this army, and where did they get so much iron?

It is no wonder that after every battle, weapons are taken at the risk of being taken away, although only a little iron is added to each weapon, but such weapons are too rare and incredible.

Xie Sicheng laughed mockingly, the people of Jiahai had fought more than ten battles with this army, but none of them came back to tell about weapons.

Every time, Jia Hai and Xie Sicheng stood in the distance to watch the battle, although they could also see the cold light, but they just thought that it was the light reflected by the sun on the weapons, but they never expected that these weapons would be different.

It is no wonder that every time the other side fights, the other side can always win more with less, and the Tartars suffer heavy casualties, but fortunately, the disparity in strength between the two sides is huge, otherwise they don't even know how to lose.

Such a clever mind can only be done by the Han people, and the Tatar army is like a brute bull compared to it.

What made Xie Sicheng even more dissatisfied was that Jiahai didn't attach much importance to the scouts, in his opinion, it was enough to send a few people to find out where the other party was camping and how many people there were, and he couldn't understand the true meaning of the scouts in Xie Sicheng's mouth.

Just like now, I have fought more than a dozen battles with that army, but I still don't know the origin of the other party, and I don't even know the surname of the other party's main general, and I only rely on brute force to resist with many people, and if I continue like this, I will be dragged tired by the other party, and once the main force of the other party comes, there is no chance of winning.

The army does not train scouts overnight, Xie Sicheng admits that he has not fought a war, and he has only read a few military books, so he lacks experience, if he had realized this problem earlier, he would definitely have cultivated a group of real scouts in Tara in the past two years, instead of being a blind man touching an elephant like now.

Xie Sicheng already understood that this army that suddenly appeared had been arranged a long time ago, and perhaps before they captured Xuanfu, this army came prepared, familiar with the terrain, and even used their own strengths to attack their weaknesses, they were familiar with the combat methods of the Tatars, and they knew how to fight to make the Tatars submit.

Or rather, this was originally a team that had fought against the Tatars for many years, which was by no means comparable to ordinary officers and soldiers.

This army came from the Nine Sides, there were experienced scouts in the ranks, they had first-hand information, they were familiar with the terrain around Xuanfu, they knew where to attack the most disadvantageous to the Tatars, they had money, and they had meticulous unified arrangements.

This is the army of the exhibition!
