Chapter 15 Countermeasures
The dispatch of the true body of a god is a matter of careful consideration for any god.
Shang Wen pondered for a long time, and finally said to Wu Fengqi: "This small battle is just that, it will be a big war, and it should be broken in person." ”
At this moment, there were bursts of cheers of "Wan Sheng" and "Wan Sheng" from the Huaishang Army outside the camp.
Immediately, the Shang warriors and warriors also suddenly cheered.
What to cheer?
"The Huaishang army retreated, the Huaishang army retreated. ”
Shang Wen, Wu Fengqi, Wu generals, Yingzi and others looked at each other, and they heard a relieved sound in their voices.
It's a cheer of joy.
Wu Fengqi frowned deeply, knowing that Huai Shangjun's envoy to the division this time was really successful.
After this battle, the Huaishang coalition army not only did not fear Cai Guo's military vehicles, but could even form a psychological advantage over them, and the victory of many enemies with one enemy was bound to cause a great boost in morale, and what about Cai's side? At present, even if the morale dropped, when the tragic situation of the array bombarded by ballistae became known to the whole army, it would no longer be just a matter of low morale, and before the Huaishang ballista could not be solved, the Cai Guo's military vehicles would even be afraid of fighting with the Huaishang army.
"I didn't expect that the Huaishang army would win so easily. On the mountain not far from the battlefield, after watching the battle, Ren Yuan muttered: "Even before their battle formation was launched, they easily defeated Cai Guo, a military vehicle that can be called a strong army, and the army could not be defeated." ”
"Their crossbows are too powerful. Ren Yuanchang took a breath and continued: "We have also seen Chen Guo Zhang's three-bow and nine-ox crossbow from a distance, and the power of the spear shot out is incomparably huge, only inferior to this crossbow, but there are a few points where the three-bow and nine-ox crossbow is far inferior to this crossbow. ”
"First, the three bows and nine oxen crossbows are strong, and the crossbows fired are special spears, which are relatively expensive to build, and the number owned by Chen Guo Zhang is also limited. ”
"If you can't, just firing spears and spears will cost you a lot. ”
"Look at the crossbow of the Huaishang Army, which fires stone bullets and gravel, and these things can be described as how many or how many things are needed. ”
"In addition, the bow body and tendon strings of the three bows and nine oxen crossbows were used only a limited number of times, so that when Zhang was fighting, after every twenty or thirty fires, he had to replace the special bow body and tendon strings, which was also a big expense, and it was said that the tendon strings of the bow body were extremely difficult to make, and even took several years. ”
"The crossbow of the Huaishang Army is different, with such a huge power, it has been fired hundreds of times in a row without any problems. ”
"The fastest launch speed can even reach 10 breaths. ”
"On the whole, this weapon is not a little stronger than the Three Bows and Nine Ox Crossbows. Ren Yuan sighed again and said: "With this sharp weapon, the battle formation of the Huaishang Army has also become extremely simple, that is, eight words ~ infantry cover, crossbow weapons to attack the enemy, only this hand in the field is the world's inadequate." ”
"There is nothing in the world?" the junior brother shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily." ”
"Oh?" Ren Yuan said suspiciously, "Senior brother, do you have a way to deal with it?"
The junior brother thought for a while: "On a larger-scale battlefield, you may be able to find an opportunity to send out a strong person to sneak attack and promote the formation of crossbows. ”
"Difficult. Ren Yuan laughed and said: "Senior brother, this is too difficult, Snake Yu Gongzi has a strong army and a strong crossbow, and against anyone, he doesn't need too many warriors to break the formation, which means that he will have far more warriors available to him than ours." ”
"Just like just now, Wu Fengqi specially organized a team of bronze armored warriors in order to break through the Huaishang army's formation, but who kind of people did they face when they approached the Huaishang army? That is, the samurai in the general of Snake Yu Gongzi formed an army alone to deal with the surprise attack of the strong and elite warriors. ”
The junior brother frowned slightly, and thought for a while: "This is also the case, if this doesn't work, then we should find a way to get the same crossbow weapon to fight against it, if we can't get this crossbow weapon, Chen Guo Zhang's three-bow and nine-ox crossbow can also be." ”
"When the battlefield is used, as long as the samurai pushes the shield cart reinforced with earthen bags to cover in front of him, and moves the Jiuniu crossbow to a place where he can attack his crossbow and array from a distance, he can shoot at it and destroy it. ”
Ren Yuan said: "This method is okay, but it's best to find a way to get this crossbow." ”
"How can this kind of crossbow weapon be so easy to obtain?" the junior brother smiled: "There is still a small outflow of Chen Guozhang's ordinary crossbow bows, and the people of Jing have obtained a large number of imitations, although the crossbow is inferior in strength and range, but it is barely usable, but its strongest three-bow and nine-ox crossbow senior brother have you ever seen it in other countries?"
As the two were talking, Ren Yuan suddenly let out a sigh of surprise and said, "Isn't the son of Snake Yu retreating?"
The younger brother hurriedly looked at the Cai army camp not far away, and saw that the Huaishang army formation was indeed slowly retreating, whether it was the front or the flank, the 10,000 people had retreated, and they were getting farther and farther away from the Cai army camp, but they still maintained the combat formation, and it was actually the ballista array that was clustered together to protect the Huaishang army, and they made a slight detour of the road, and then went to a hill not far from the right side of the Cai army camp.
"What does Huai Shangjun want to do?"
The junior brother looked at it for a moment and said, "I didn't expect this crossbow to be used like this." ”
"Snake Yu Gongzi is going to borrow the height of the hill to condescendingly bombard the interior of Cai Guoying's village. ”
"With the power and range of that crossbow, the camp near the hill was within its attack range for two miles. ”
"Cai Guo is in big trouble now. ”
After thinking about it for a while, he saw something again, and said to Ren Yuan: "Senior brother, this time the snake Yu Gongzi seems to be attacking the area where Cai Guoshi is located?"
"Not bad. Ren Yuan said: "The Cai Guoguo division under the command of the Wu clan is quite powerful, and they also have some strategies for commanding the army, but the biggest trouble is that they can't afford to lose, and the Snake Yu Gongzi will ...... this offensive together."
He shook his head: "The Wu clan must not dare to stay here for a long time, so as not to suffer a big loss, and retreat to Huaixia City." ”
The junior disciple continued: "The Wu clan's thousand-rider army has withdrawn, and the Shang clan's newly defeated army will definitely not dare to stay for long. ”
Cai Guo's camp, Wu's military tent, after the Huaishang army "returned to the army", Yingzi and Wu's generals returned here.
In the battle just now, although it was the Shang army under the command of Wu Fengqi who suffered a heavy defeat and serious losses, they were also generals of Cai Guo and felt the same way.
They do have an insoluble contradiction with the Shang clan, but at this moment they are facing a common enemy, today the Shang elite has not seen the opponent, they were bombarded by the crossbow and defeated, in the future they may also be confronted with the Huaishang army, this moment to gather is to discuss countermeasures.
"Ladies and gentlemen, today's crossbow committee of the Huaishang Army really surprised the prime minister, I don't know if you have a way to restrain and crack its crossbow?"
Wu Anguo sighed and said: "Infant Phase, I think that in military affairs, it is almost impossible to crack and restrain it. ”
"Today's battle between the elite army of the Shang clan and the Huaishang army gives me the impression that it is simply a group of ignorant barbarians, dressed in animal skins and holding stone axes, rushing into the battle formation of our division in a mess. ”
"There is a huge gap between the two sides, both in terms of weapons and battle formations. ”
"We want to go to the army against Shang Huai, and we can never do better than Wu Fengqi. After a pause, he continued: "Infant Phase, if you can ask Mr. Gongyi to create a similar instrument... Or it can be coped. ”
The infant nodded and said, "The matter of inviting Mr. Gong to lose is quite personal, but it is not easy to make a device like Huai Shangjun, and everyone knows how powerful the Chen Guo Zhang's three-bow and nine-ox crossbow is." ”
He looked at the generals of the Wu clan and asked rhetorically: "But like the following countries today, which country can see it?"
Wu Di was closing his eyes and thinking hard when he entered the account, and then raised his head: "Infant Phase, Father, before we can't deal with its crossbow and military formation for the time being, maybe we can reduce its strength in other directions?"
"Oh?" everyone looked at him, Wu Di first bowed, and then said to everyone: "Just now I came up with two methods, one is to send people to destroy the stone bridge that crosses the big river from Jili to Jixi and Jinan. ”
"Stone bridge?" the infant closed his eyes and thought for a moment, and said, "But in the past, after I got the land, in order to communicate with the three towns of the land, the landlord and several Dade priests personally built the stone bridge across the river with divine power?"
"Yes, this is the bridge. Wu Di said affirmatively: "This bridge is the main road connecting Jili and Jinan, if there is no it, the grain and grass of the Huaishang army must be transported by boat and boat across the river here, and it is almost impossible to support the army of the son of the snake Yu to use troops against me Caizhong." ”
"Difficult. Wu Dingguo said: "The importance of this bridge, how can a military god like the son of the snake not know, he won't give us a chance, what else can you do?"
Wu Di said without thinking: "Donghai Kingdom, Cai Country Dahe Divine Throne." ”
The infant instantly understood his intentions, and continued: "I heard that this time the Yue Kingdom can ask the Jing State to withdraw its troops, it is because of the help of the East China Sea State, and the conditions for the Yue State to invite the East China Sea Country are the Yue Country Changhe Water God Position, if I Cai Guo may be the Great River God Position, the East China Sea Country will definitely be moved." ”
"If the East China Sea Kingdom is tempted, its thousands of military vehicles can directly attack Huai Shang, where the army is gathering at this moment and the rear is empty. Immediately, he laughed: "What's even better about this method is that my Cai Kingdom has an extra series of divine forces, and it can also balance the landlords a little." ”
Cai Guo's camp, on the top of the hill outside the Wu national division's camp, the existing trees have been vigorously cut down to the ground, and the twelve ballistae have been placed one after another.
"Childe, the ballista team is ready, please instruct Childe. ”
Condescendingly, Wang Yue overlooked the camp of the Wu National Division, and said: "Start from the big tent of the Chinese army of the Wu National Division in this battalion, and prepare for scattered bombs." (To be continued.) )
