The Qingshui town guard looked at the Namo barbarian cavalry who was going around the city, and ordered his men to burn three beacon fires on the city, warning the defenders in Shahe Town, lighting beacon fires to represent the enemy's arrival, and each pile represented 50,000 enemy troops.

Looking at the enemy cavalry rolling away, Commander Hong Haifeng asked with some concern: "General Zhou, Shahe Town is now empty, the cavalry has poured out, and only Song Duwei's less than 200,000 foot soldiers are left, can they withstand the dragon roar of Namo? Looking at the appearance of the barbarian cavalry, it is really much stronger than Sutuo's tribal army, whether it is equipment or morale." ”

Zhou Wei stroked the beard that had just emerged under his chin, saying that as long as he was an ancient person, as long as he was an adult, he seemed to like to have a beard very much. smiled and said: "If it was someone else, I really wouldn't dare to say it, but Captain Seinfeld is there, and I dare to say that Namor will definitely not be pleased." Don't forget, Song Duwei can be regarded as the best at riding on foot in the Qin Wu army, besides, Namo is going, it is a fast word, if you can't beat the defense line of Shahe Town in a short time, Hou Ye will return to Shahe Town, Namo will be in danger of being dumpling, and he will be able to win this war, you see, at most two days, we can see Namo come back with a gray face. ”

Soon after the Namo cavalry entered Yi'an, they sent out that something was wrong, although there were many cottages along the way, but not to mention people, not even dogs could not see one, empty, into the house, except for some bulky furniture was also thrown in the room, nothing was pulled down, only a few bare walls remained, and dozens of miles were broken into Shahe Town, and the scene seen was generally the same. There were nearly 100,000 dingkou in the entire Shahe Town, but none of them were left, and they all walked cleanly.

The subordinate general Hu Nuo said to Namo worriedly: "Young Patriarch, Qin Wuling implements a strong wall and clears the wilderness, so that we can't find a single grain in the enemy's territory, and the logistics baggage completely depends on the rear supply, and we can't beat those three fortresses, and the logistics supply will be completely exposed under the nose of the other party, and it is impossible to attack the interior of Qin Wuling on a large scale. ”

Namo gritted his teeth and said: "Ye Qing's implementation of the strong wall and clearing the wilderness is a double-edged sword, the resettlement of hundreds of thousands of people in three towns, the daily cost is not a small amount, hum, drag us, I think he will be the one who will be dragged down in the end." ”

Hu Nuo said: "Young Patriarch, the human race is good at farming, and the material storage is not comparable to us, I heard that Qin Wuling has had a bumper harvest for two consecutive years, and there is no invasion of foreign enemies, and the granary must be rich." If Ye Qing has been adopting a policy of clearing the wilderness, then we really have no good way. ”

Namo was silent for a moment, then pointed his horsewhip forward, "In any case, in the end, we have to rely on swords and arrows to speak, Hunuo, if we can take Shahe Town and tear a hole in Qin Wuling's defensive line, then all of this will no longer be a problem." Hmm, have you figured out all the defenses of Sand River Town?"

Hu Nuo nodded, "It's all scouted, Ye Qing dispatched 200,000 cavalry this time, it is conceivable that the husky marshal may have to suffer, Qin Wu's equipment leading the troops, it's really..."

"Seinfeld does have less than 200,000 foot soldiers left, divided into two parts, the two are horns for each other, watching each other from afar, young patriarch, where do we fight first?"

"Capture the thief and capture the king first, of course, the first is to attack Shahe Town," Namor said categorically, "You let the waste of the tribal alliance army to contain the enemies of the other enemies, and we will attack the defense line of Shahe Town ourselves." I don't believe that the elite of my barbarian 100,000 standing army can't defeat the 100,000 terran infantry. ”

Shahe Town, more than ten miles of defense line, 100,000 foot soldiers have long been waiting for the day, from the beginning of seeing the beacon fire on the city of Qingshui Town, Shahe Town has fully entered a state of war, Shahe Town Seinfeld's military camp, the heralds are busy in and out, sending orders to commanders at all levels, Seinfeld's purpose is very clear, that is, to defend. Namor only needs to drag on here for a day or two, then he won't want to leave. Ye Qing's cavalry returned to the division, and he could directly block his retreat.

Now Qin Wuling's simple infantry is only Song Fei, and the other Li Xin, Luo Bin, Qin Fei, and Wang Feng are all cavalry troops in their hands, and the rest are also mixed cavalry and infantry, which greatly improves the mobility of the troops while ensuring the defense capability. After all, for a long time in the future, the enemies that Ye Qing will face will only be the grassland barbarians, and fighting with them, the infantry will always suffer a little, with more than enough defense and insufficient attack.

But Ye Qing started by relying on infantry, and even if he built a territory in the future, he also wanted infantry to defend, so he retained Seinfeld, a pure infantry capital, and it was also the strongest infantry combat power in Ye Qing's hands.

The ground in the direction of Shahe Town for more than ten miles has completely changed its appearance, the ground has been dug up and criss-crossed countless trenches, and the excavated soil has been built into a series of earth walls on the spot, some of the earth walls are behind a flat ground, and some are a deep trench a few steps away along the earth wall, and the ditch is inserted with dense and sharpened bamboo thorns, and the barbarian iron horse wearing strong armor may not be okay if it falls, but the horse is sure that it will never be able to get up again.

The closer you get to Shahe Town, the deeper and denser the trenches become, and these places have already entered the range of long-range weapon strikes, Seinfeld has been operating in Shahe Town for a long time, and the trebuchets arranged in the rear are densely packed like a forest, and the sight is numbing, the newly made bed crossbow flashes with cold light, and the crossbow arrows as thick as children's arms have already been marked to shoot at the target, just waiting for the enemy to crash into it.

At noon, the sun hangs overhead, today is a rare sunny day, although the sun is not yet how hot, but coupled with the calm atmosphere on the battlefield, it makes people feel a burst of heat for no reason, at this time, it is also the time when a person's blood is flourishing, it is at this time, Namo's brute cavalry arrived on the battlefield.

The horsewhip pointed directly in front of him, and opposite him, Seinfeld's banner fluttered in the wind, far away from Namor's flag, "Break through from the front, I will go straight to the enemy's nest" Namor said with a dry spirit.

There is no flank attack containment, no small-scale attack temptation, Namo is a frontal strong burst of thunder and balance as soon as he gets started, he wants to gather all his strength, and make a comprehensive assault on the attack surface about three miles wide on the frontal battlefield, only in opening a certain point, you can form a breakthrough, and bloom everywhere.

Namor had no experience in fighting Qin Wuling's infantry, and all he could do now was attack according to the fighting methods recorded in the clan.

A group of attacking soldiers grabbed their pockets full of dirt and began the assault, while behind them, more men were busily digging up dirt and filling their pockets.

Seinfeld looked at Namo's unreasonable attack, and laughed and said, "Very good, this little temper against me, come on, since you want to attack head-on, let's have a king against a king, a general against a general, and a hard touch." Move the archers to the front as the first line of the enemy. ”

The barbarian cavalry put the cloth bag on the horse, held the bow in one hand, and drew the arrow from the quiver with the other hand, and galloped while stringing the arrow, aiming at the Qin Wuling archers behind a few trenches. And these Qin Wu leading archers were also doing the same thing, at the whistle of the sentry officer, one long arrow after another pointed diagonally upward.

"All attention, rapid five rounds of projectile" With an order, Qin Wu led the soldiers to release the bowstring, and there was a sound of collapse, and there was a cloud of arrows in the air, covering the brute cavalry rushing forward. The range of the improved strong bow is slightly farther than that of the brute cavalry, and it is this distance of 100 paces that allows Qin Wu to lead the troops to take the lead in this battle. On this side, except for a very small number of soldiers with extremely strong arm strength, who were able to hold strong bows and shoot at Qin Wu's leading soldiers at such a distance, the rest of the people could only endure the arrows that shot down like rain, and after burying their heads and rushing for more than ten steps, they could shoot the sharp arrows in their hands.

The horse-control skills of the barbarian cavalry soldiers, the archery level is indeed not comparable to the Qin Wu cavalry soldiers, and often the attacking barbarian knights shoot two or three arrows, and the Qin Wu soldiers can release one arrow.

From time to time, people on both sides have fallen, at this distance, in fact, the two sides of the shooting is more of a suppression, the real shooting of the dead arrows is actually very few, both sides of the armor are extremely sophisticated, as long as it is not the back of the face of the door, throat and other vital points, shot to other positions, most of them are stuck by the armor, can not form a fatal injury to the soldiers. On the battlefield, you may see a man covered in arrows like a thorn riding his horse and shooting from top to bottom.

The barbarian cavalry has excellent archery skills, and has the upper hand in the counter-shooting, but the losses are not less than those led by Qin Wu at all, and more of the brute cavalry is the crotch of the war horse is shot down, and the horse is thrown to the ground, in the battlefield of ten thousand horses, even if the brute cavalry with extremely good horse control skills, it is inevitable that they will step on their comrades by mistake.

In this confrontation, the brute rode to the front of the first trench, threw down the cloth bag on the horse, and ran diagonally away with the horse to make way for the follow-up troops.

In less than a pillar of incense, the first ditch was filled in and the low wall was pushed up. Qin Wu led his troops to retreat a certain distance and once again suppressed the opponent's impact with bows and arrows. Repeating the story of the first time.

Song Fei moved a Taishi chair, sat on the command platform, and watched this offensive and defensive battle easily, and even hummed a small tune happily, the further back Qin Wuling's defense line went, the stronger the rebound became, "Na Mo Xiao, when you move forward for a thousand steps, I will let you taste the taste of stone rain in the sky." ”

"Give the order to the left wing, send out 3,000 men, and threaten Namor's flank, aren't these brute horsemen from digging in the earth, bagging so quickly?" Seinfeld said loudly.

As he spoke, the brute had already broken through the second trench and advanced another hundred meters. At this time, the price they paid was nothing more than the lives of a hundred soldiers.
