Chapter 344: The Trail
Fantasy fans., the fastest update of the latest chapter of the little doctor girl: The son of the world is coming to ask for marriage!
Yu Qizu ran to the city of Santang Pass, and lost one of his generals in vain. After returning to the camp angrily, he was furious, and took the opportunity to warn the ears and eyes who were forcibly inserted by the crown prince Wanyan E.
Anyway, there must always be a punching bag, catch your own people and scold, it is better to find trouble with the prince. Anyway, in Northern Yan, especially since the last time the prince returned from Western Qin, for some reason, he has always been fighting with himself, the generalissimo of Northern Yan.
This time to conquer Western Qin, he took the opportunity to insert an idler in his own army, so Yu Qizu was even more unhappy when he saw this prince's person!
Xi Ningyu naturally took people back to Santang Pass, and ordered them to go down as soon as possible to prepare for a surprise attack tonight.
That night, Beiyan was really as Xi Ningyu expected, and just after midnight, he launched a battle to seize Santang Pass.
The battle between the two sides was fierce, but fortunately, Xi Ningyu expected the enemy to be one step ahead and made arrangements in time. When it was dawn, Beiyan counted after the gold, and Yu Qizu was even more depressed.
After fighting overnight, Beiyan died three or four thousand, but Xiqin was here. Relying on the city wall and thunder stone rolling wood, he was as steady as Mount Tai and did not move.
Originally, I thought that even if the night attack could not work, it should also cause Xiqin to suffer a lot. But as a result, after preliminary calculations, the Western Qin side only lost more than 1,000 people, although the Western Qin army was already small, but 1,000 could not cause any fluctuations.
However, Xi Ningyu's side didn't think so, and when the casualty report was delivered to her, Xi Ningyu's brows were furrowed. I was even more disturbed in my heart, and if I continued to develop according to this casualty figure, I was afraid that if I couldn't wait for the letter to reach Beiyan and be delivered to Wanyan E, Santang Pass on the Western Qin side would be captured.
Xi Ningyu was frowning and worried in the command post, and a guard walked in outside and said, "Report, there are mountain people outside the door who have come to see, saying that there is something urgent to tell you." ”
Xi Ningyu raised his head when he heard this, turned around in his mind a few times and said, "Invite someone in." ”
"Yes!" When the guard answered, he turned and went out. After a while, he came in with a man dressed in general and a little dirt.
The man claimed to be a hunter in the mountains, and he spent his days hunting in the mountains outside Santang Pass. Today, I learned that Beiyan had invaded the territory again, so I specially informed the Western Qin generals of the news that a small road discovered during a previous hunt could lead to the territory of Beiyan.
Therefore, Xi Ningyu asked carefully, and after some temptation, he felt that there seemed to be nothing suspicious about this mountain people, so he asked the soldiers to put on some silver coins and send a few meat patties to take away.
It happened that several generals who had been guarding this place with the rebel generals came over, so Xi Ningyu ordered Qingying to take a few guards, together with a general who was familiar with the inside and outside of Santang Pass, to go to the small road in the mouth of the mountain people to do some investigation.
If there is a way, then Xi Ningyu has a plan in his heart, if the plan can be successful, he can buy at least half a month for Santang Pass. At that time, once the letter was delivered to the Prince of Beiyan, Xi Ningyu was convinced that it would inevitably have an effect on Qi Zu from the inside, and it would probably be pulled by Qi Zu's hind legs.
Qingying followed the generals of Santang Pass to explore the way, and Xi Ningyu led the soldiers guarding the pass to continuously resist the siege of the Northern Yan every day.
As the war unfolded, Xi Ningyu also took advantage of his advantages from another world to make use of some strange ideas as much as possible. The shortcomings of the weapons of this era have been improved, although they are not enough to maximize their power due to their haste. However, with the continuous transformation and use of mangosteen soft rattan and other materials in the nearby mountains and forests, the weapons in the hands of the soldiers have been much more effective than before.
In particular, Xi Ningyu used mangosteen to enhance the shooting range of the bow, so that the distance that could only shoot to more than two hundred steps was suddenly extended to a distance of nearly three hundred steps, which made Beiyan's side suffer a big loss.
In one day, more than 2,000 soldiers were killed by Western Qin's improved bows and arrows. In addition, Xi Ningyu's unique use of the sickle when harvesting wheat and the improved thing called the 'folding ladder sickle' can instantly cut off the ladder that is on the castle wall.
There are also temporary archstacks made of clay and stones, leaving only a small fan-shaped hole, several of which are built in opposite directions. This made it possible for the soldiers who shot arrows behind the hole to cover the outside of the city, but it made it impossible for the archers of the Northern Yan to injure half of the Western Qin soldiers in the bow battlements.
Therefore, if you want to attack the city, you have to fill it with your life and wade through the defensive line of Western Qin.
In just two days, more than 10,000 people in Beiyan took advantage of the trend. After a day of siege battles, Yu Qizu was so angry in the tent that he was furious.
"A bunch of waste, how did you command it, but a Santang Pass consumed so much of my Beiyan's time. So far, more than 10,000 people have been lost. But you haven't even taken down a single brick from the city wall, are you all embarrassed, embarrassed? Yu Qizu pointed to the noses of the generals below and scolded them one by one.
Looking at the generals who were silent with hammerheads, Yu Qizu was angry. "And what, that thing that our army can't even stand on the city wall with rows of slams, can any of you tell Ben Shuai, what the hell is that?"
In fact, what Yu Qizu said was that Xi Ningyu had urgently ordered people to make a batch of bamboo crossbows in the past two days, and it happened that they had just been sent today, and Yu Qizu led the army to attack the city, and took over the solid use of Xi Ningyu as a test target.
Don't look at those mangosteens as inconspicuous, but I didn't expect to wait for Xi Ningyu to use modern special methods to cut mangosteen and arrange them in an orderly manner to fix them. It will become a short- and medium-distance lethal weapon, and a few salvos will make the Northern Yan soldiers who have already attacked the city wall suffer a fatal blow.
Because the design drawing given by Xi Ningyu was fired in three consecutive shots. Therefore, when the trigger is pulled three times in a row, each bamboo crossbow will shoot three crossbow arrows made by the master in a row, and because the distance is extremely close, the Beiyan soldiers did not even have time to dodge, and were shot down the city wall in an instant.
It took over and caused serious losses in today's Beiyan siege, looking at those soldiers who fell down like dumplings, how could Yu Qizu not feel distressed!
"And those sticks sticking out of the walls, aren't they? Just those things, how can you make the ladder break at the waist, give me the order to go down, and when I attack the city again, I saw those things stretching out, and I cut them off for Ben Shuai first! Do you understand!? Yu Qizu roared angrily in the tent.
…… Beiyan continued to attack the city for several days, not only did Beiyan suffer heavy losses, but Xi Ningyu's side on the Western Qin side also felt very tired.
But even so, Xi Ningyu didn't dare to neglect it. This person is still sitting in the command post, looking at the map outside Santang Pass, thinking about something.
"Report, the Shadow Girl is back!"
When Xi Ningyu heard that Qingying was back, her face finally showed joy.
"Let her in, quick!" Xi Ningyu was very hopeful, hoping that Qingying could bring her a piece of news that she was looking forward to, because the gap between the forces of the two sides was too big, and if there was no conspiracy, it would be difficult to escape defeat. Therefore, Qingying's return has become Xi Ningyu's greatest expectation.
As Qingying's footsteps approached, without waiting for the outside to report, Xi Ningyu opened his mouth to let people come in directly.
"Miss as expected, that mountain man really didn't lie to us, there is indeed a trail in the mountains that goes straight through, about a day and a night, you can go around to the rear of the Beiyan army." Qingying smiled and told Xi Ningyu carefully about the location of the trail, as well as the surrounding mountain scenery, as well as the dangerous places.
Xi Ningyu listened attentively, and while drawing in his heart the path near Qingying's mouth. After Qingying finished speaking, Xi Ningyu almost understood it in his mind.
There was a silence in the command post, and Qingying sat silently on the side, not making a sound, and not disturbing Xi Ningyu, who was thinking.
A cup of tea time passes, and a meal time passes. It wasn't until Xi Ningyu's face showed more and more obvious joy that Qingying, who was sitting on the side, knew that he must have a good idea.
Of course, for Beiyan, their unlucky days are coming!
That night, Xi Ningyu ordered people to take a look at the generals gathered.
"Princess, you summoned us in the middle of the night, but what do you command?" Shentu Goshawk asked with a bewildered gaze and a yawn.
Hu Yanrui was too, and entered the door with a few black-headed and black-brained generals of the Black Qiwei. Seeing that all the generals were basically together, he hurriedly walked to the corresponding position and sat down or stood.
Xi Ningyu opened his eyes and looked at the exquisite map on the sand table of the command post. "Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry to disturb you at this time, but the stakes are high, and it's a matter of life and death. So I'm not going to talk nonsense with you, you look here! After speaking, Xi Ningyu stretched out his hand and pointed to a place on the map, next to Santang Pass, in the mountainous area.
"There is a small road here that leads directly to the land of the Northern Yan, and it bypasses the Northern Yan army. Therefore, I want to divide my troops from this small road, attack and kill the grain transport team of Beiyan, and see if there is a chance to go a little deeper into the hinterland of Beiyan. If it is feasible, it can lead the main force of Beiyan to attack Santang Pass and buy time for our reinforcements! After Xi Ningyu finished strategizing, he looked at the generals.
Listening to Xi Ningyu's strategy, Shentu Goshawk and the others all felt that it was a good proposal. But looking at the people at this moment, there is no general who can be reassured and can be entrusted with it.
Xi Ningyu also felt that although he had the talent to fight, there was no one who was good at scheming. This strategy is redundant and fighting, once it goes deep behind enemy lines, it is necessary to lead the soldiers to avoid the heavy and light, and constantly go around the surprise attack place, rather than fighting to the death.
Therefore, at the moment, among the generals present, there are no candidates to reassure Xi Ningyu and Shentu Goying and others.
fell into a dullness for a while, and Xi Ningyu was even more uneasy. I'm afraid that as soon as I leave, the momentum of this side will be shaken. But if he let others go, Xi Ningyu was afraid that these people were not smart enough, they were more than brave and not wise. When the time comes, take the living with you, and the dead one will not be left or half of it will come back, and it will be fucked up at this time.
But after thinking about it, Xi Ningyu still felt that only by putting Shentu Goshawk and Hu Yanrui together could the three ponds be safer.
Huyan Rui is brave and brave, and Shentu Goshawk is old and resourceful. If the two of them cooperate, they may be able to lead people to attack and kill the two teams of Beiyan and come back!
"I personally led people through the trail and looked for an opportunity to surprise attack the grain road of the Northern Yan army. And Huyanrui and Shentu Goshawk are the two masters who stick to Santang Pass, just hold on, not fight! After thinking about it left and right, Xi Ningyu made such a decision.
Yu Qizu ran to the city of Santang Pass, and lost one of his generals in vain. After returning to the camp angrily, he was furious, and took the opportunity to warn the ears and eyes who were forcibly inserted by the crown prince Wanyan E.
Anyway, there must always be a punching bag, catch your own people and scold, it is better to find trouble with the prince.
