Chapter 459: Bo Jiu Zhuang Xing, first go to the night dive
Sub time.
The night is dark.
In the hills thirty miles away from the Yanjun camp of Yehuling.
Just when a group of soldiers of the Yan Army were about to complete the encampment and other matters.
More than 2,000 soldiers of the Yan army escorted 6,000 Yandi people to drive horse-drawn carts full of bed crossbows, trebuchets, flying stones, fire oil and other baggage.
Slowly walked to the temporary camp of the Yan army, which had not yet completely landed.
The carriage full of baggage went to the temporary camp of the Yan army.
Even if there were thousands of soldiers who first entered the camp, the soldiers of A and B stepped forward quickly.
A small dismantled trebuchet and a jar of coarse porcelain filled with fire oil were removed from the wagon.
He was then tied to the back of a pack horse that had been prepared for a long time.
Meanwhile.
The leader of the army, the people, and the baggage, often three golds, after a brief greeting.
Immediately turned over and got on the horse again, and went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army in the distance.
More than a quarter of an hour later.
Chang Sanjin turned over and dismounted a hundred steps away from the Chinese army's big tent.
"First go to the camp to lead thousands of households, and Chang Sanjin will come to restore his life."
"I hope you will speed up and pass the prince."
Chang Sanjin faced the Chinese army guards on both sides of his body, hugging his fists.
"Chang Qianhu, please wait a moment."
The guards of the first Chinese army returned the salute with their fists, and then walked quickly towards the big tent of the Chinese army.
Not much.
The guards of the Chinese army led by him once again returned to Chang Sanjin.
"The prince is invited."
"Chang Qianhu, please come with me."
The guards of the Chinese army at the head stretched out their hands to please.
"There is labor."
Chang Sanjin clenched his fists again, and then unloaded the saber from his waist and handed it to a Chinese army guard beside him.
Then followed by the personal guards of the Chinese army led by him, and went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army.
"Lord Wang."
"Thousands of households have arrived."
The Chinese army led by the guards walked in front of the Chinese army's big tent, facing the Chinese army's big tent and leaned over again.
"Enter."
"Yes."
After Xu Yi agreed, the guards of the Chinese army immediately opened the curtain and stretched out their hands again to ask, "Chang Qianhu, please."
"There is labor." Chang Sanjin hugged his fists again.
Then he walked to the big tent of the Chinese army.
"The last general will first go to the camp to lead thousands of households and Chang Sanjin, and meet the prince."
Chang Sanjin walked three steps away, and then faced Xu Yi, who was sitting on the chair of the first master, and bowed deeply and hugged his fists.
"Excuse me."
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly.
"Thank you, Lord Xie."
Chang Sanjin leaned over again and hugged his fists to thank him.
"Did you have a smooth journey?"
Xu Yi asked.
"Go back to the prince."
"Although it is dark and the road is difficult."
"But overall, it's been a smooth ride."
"There were no carriage crashes and no casualties."
Chang Sanjin replied truthfully.
"By the way."
"Have you ever seen Ye Qianhu after returning to the camp?"
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then asked again.
"Go back to the prince."
"The last general Fang has met with Ye Qianhu."
"At this time, Ye Qianhu is taking the lead in the camp, and the soldiers of A and B are busy unloading small trebuchets and kerosene."
Chang Sanjin replied truthfully again when he heard this.
"It's getting late."
"Leave a thousand soldiers to help Ye Qianhu carry it."
"Take the rest of the people to the southeast of the camp to rest."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then opened his mouth to command.
"Yes!"
When Chang Sanjin heard this, he immediately sat facing the top of the Taishi chair again
Xu Yi bowed deeply and hugged his fists in a salute, and then retreated.
Wait for Chang Sanjin's figure to completely disappear behind the Chinese army's big tent.
Xu Yi calmed down for a while, then got up and left the chair of the first prince, and walked to the front of the hanging map on the side of the big tent without hurrying.
With an extremely calm face, he looked at the corpse king's camp on the map, which was only twenty-five miles away.
Not much.
Outside the big tent of the Chinese army, the voice of the Chinese army's personal guards suddenly came again.
"Lord Qiqi."
"First go to the camp to scout Qu Bo Changkang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi to see."
Just now, the Chinese army's personal guard once again walked in front of the Chinese army's tent.
"Yes."
Xu Yi took a deep look at the place marked as the camp of the corpse king on the map, and then said yes.
Not much.
The two most outstanding uncles of the first camp scout song marched to the Chinese army's tent one after another.
"First go to the camp to scout Jiaqu Bo Changkang Shouxi, and meet the prince."
Kang Shouxi walked five steps behind Xu Yi, and then faced Xu Yi's back and leaned over deeply and hugged his fists and saluted.
"First go to the camp to scout Cao Zezhi, the chief of Yiqu, and meet the prince."
Cao Zezhi, who was half a step away from the slow Kang Shouxi, followed closely behind and bowed deeply with his fists in his fists.
"Is there anything unusual in the Corpse King's camp?"
Xu Yi asked with his back to Kang and Cao.
"Go back to the prince."
"There's nothing unusual about the Corpse King's camp."
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi replied in unison.
"Keep staring."
"But there is the slightest abnormality in the camp of the king of corpses."
"Be sure to send the news to Ye Qianhu as soon as possible."
"And send someone to tell you to be alone."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, and then opened his mouth to command.
"Obey!"
When Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi heard this, they immediately clenched their fists and took their orders, and then retreated.
After Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi completely disappeared into the Chinese army's big tent.
Xu Yi stared at the picture again for a long time, then turned around and sat down steadily at the chair of the Supreme Master again.
Waiting for the arrival of Ye Guolu, the leader of the first camp A and B.
And this wait is more than a quarter of an hour.
More than a quarter of an hour later.
Ye Guolu, who was dressed in a full suit of black lacquer phoenix wings and bright light armor, descended to the Chinese army's tent under the guidance of the Chinese army's personal guards.
"The last general will first go to the camp to lead the troops of Qianhu Ye Guolu and meet the prince."
Ye Guolu stopped three steps away, and then faced Xu Yi, who was sitting on the chair of the first master, and bowed deeply and hugged his fists.
"Excuse me."
Xu Yi nodded slightly.
"Thank you, Lord Xie."
When Ye Guolu heard this, he immediately hugged his fists again and thanked him.
"How's the preparation of the small trebuchet and the oil and so on?"
After Ye Guolu got up completely, Xu Yi immediately asked.
"Go back to the prince."
"Three hundred small trebuchets, three hundred counterweights, and six hundred jars of oil are all ready."
Ye Guolu clenched his fists and replied truthfully.
The stone throwers used in the Great Zhou Dynasty can be roughly divided into three categories: small, medium and large according to the size of the body and the weight of the stone.
Among them, small stone throwing machines are often equipped with single pins and machine cables ranging from one to ten.
The so-called single tip, that is, a long wooden pole fixed on top of the trebuchet, plays the role of the lever that is commonly known in later generations.
The so-called machine rope is: a thick rope that can be pulled.
The more trebuchets there are, the heavier the projectiles can be thrown, and the more cables need to be deployed.
The corresponding body size will also become larger, and the more manpower will be required.
In terms of power and manpower.
A small trebuchet with a single tip and a single rope can throw a stone bullet at a time
One piece.
The weight of the stone bullets used is about one to three catties.
It can be projected at a distance of about 300 paces.
When used, it only takes two people to operate.
When projectiles are fired, one person first aims and releases, and after the aiming and placement is completed, the other person pulls the cable.
When the single tip and one end of the machine cable fell suddenly.
The pit at the other end will be quickly thrown up, and the stone projectile placed in it will be thrown with great inertia.
Most of the trebuchets that Xu Yi ordered his husband to transport from Yandi to Yehuling were small trebuchets that could be controlled by two people.
There are as many as 1,000 such small trebuchets in the Yan military camp alone.
As for the medium-sized trebuchet that requires forty people to control at the same time, it can fly thirty or forty pounds of stones.
Xu Yi only ordered fifty planes to be transported.
As for the large trebuchet that requires one or two hundred people to control at the same time, it can fly stones of 80 to 100 catties.
Such a large, powerful siege weapon.
Even in the camp of the King of Yandi, there is no half, and it is naturally impossible to have one here.
The Yan army's temporary camp is in the big tent of the Chinese army.
Hearing this, Xu Yi glanced sideways at the leak placed on the side of the bookcase.
Before I knew it, I had already done most of it.
"Captain Xin."
"Bring the wine!"
Xu Yi calmed down slightly, and then stood up from the chair of the first master.
"Yes!"
When Xin Sixuan heard this, he immediately walked to Xu Yi's side with the Youning wine that had been prepared and two coarse porcelain bowls.
Xu Yi picked up the wine jar and poured two bowls of wine, then walked away from the chair of the first master and walked in front of Ye Guolu.
Then he handed one of the bowls of wine to Ye Guolu.
"The last general Xie Wang Ye gave wine!"
Seeing this, Ye Guolu immediately leaned over and took the wine bowl handed by Xu Yi with both hands.
"It's all ready."
"Then let's set off now."
"Lone here with a glass of thin wine, I wish Ye Qianhu success first! Return in peace!"
"After this battle! Lonely and Ye Qianhu and all the soldiers under his command had a good drink!"
Xu Yi picked up the wine bowl in his hand, and then raised his head and drank it all.
"Please rest assured!"
"In the end, the corpse that will be stirred up will be uneasy!"
When Ye Guolu heard this, he immediately said solemnly.
The words fell.
Ye Guolu raised the wine bowl in his hand, raised his head and drank it all.
"Return unharmed."
"Lone is waiting for you here."
Xu Yi patted Ye Guolu on the shoulder, and then said in a deep voice.
"Please rest assured!"
"The last will go!"
Ye Guolu's eyes turned red for no reason when he heard this, and he immediately faced Xu Yi again and bowed deeply and hugged his fists.
Then he slowly retreated.
When Ye Guolu's figure completely disappeared behind the Chinese army's big tent.
Xin Sixuan took the empty wine bowl handed by Xu Yi, and then looked at Xu Yi again with concern.
"It's getting late."
"The prince still needs to command the battle tomorrow."
"Let's let the last general be on duty tonight."
Xin Sixuan calmed down for a moment, and then lowered his head and leaned over.
"It doesn't matter."
"Let's go back and rest."
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly and declined.
"Yes."
Seeing that Xu Yiyi had made up his mind, Xin Sixuan had no choice but to lean over and clench his fists to receive the order, and then slowly retreated.
Wait for Xin Sixuan's figure to completely disappear behind the Chinese army's big tent.
Xu Yi pulled a cashmere blanket from the side of the big tent, and then walked to the chair of the head of the master again.
Then sit down steadily, recline back in the chair and cover yourself with a cashmere blanket and close your eyes to recuperate.
Meanwhile.
Thousands of soldiers who first boarded the battalion A and B and the two Quyan troops were under the leadership of Ye Guolu, the leader of the thousand households.
One man and three horses, horses wrapped in hooves and human titles, went straight to the corpse of the king twenty-five miles away.
.......
.......
Ugly time.
The night is dark and the wind is high.
Ascended to the camp first, and thousands of soldiers quietly marched to the camp of the king of corpses, five miles away.
Just when the soldiers of the first camp A and B turned over and dismounted for the final rest.
Not far away, there were suddenly several rhythmic insect chirps.
Not much.
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi each led several scouts to Ye Guolu.
"First go to the camp to scout Jiaqu Bo Changkang Shouxi and meet Ye Qianhu."
"First go to the camp to scout Cao Zezhi, the chief of Yiqu, and meet Ye Qianhu."
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi clasped their fists in a low voice and saluted.
"Is there anything unusual about the Corpse King Camp?"
Ye Guolu nodded slightly, and then asked in a low voice.
"Back to the leaf of the thousand households."
"There's nothing out of the ordinary in the Corpse King's camp."
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi replied in a low voice.
"How long will it take for all the nails along the way to be removed?"
Ye Guolu asked in a low voice again.
"Back to the leaf of the thousand households."
"It can be pulled out in a quarter of an hour at most."
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi replied in a low voice.
If it weren't for the Hun scouts hidden five miles away from the corpse king's camp, they would have to change their guards every half an hour.
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi had already led their subordinates to uproot them all.
"Immediately set out and remove all the nails along the way."
Ye Guolu nodded slightly, and then ordered in a low voice.
"Obey!"
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi immediately hugged their fists and took their orders when they heard this, and then retreated.
After Kang Shouxi, Cao Zezhi and others completely disappeared into the darkness.
Ye Guolu sat next to the war horse, closed his eyes and silently counted the time.
Half an hour later.
Not far away, there were several rhythmic insect chirpings.
The moment you hear the sound of insects.
Ye Guolu opened his eyes instantly, and then stood up from the ground.
Not much.
Several black figures stepped out of the darkness again.
"Qi Qi Ye Qianhu."
"The nails ahead have all been removed."
"Please also ask Ye Qianhu to lead the army to follow us and others."
Kang Shouxi and Cao Zezhi walked in front of Ye Guolu again with a little bloody smell.
"Good!"
"Let's go!"
Ye Guolu nodded slightly, then turned over and ordered in a deep voice.
The words fell.
Ye Guolu immediately drove the horse forward slowly.
After the order was given to the thousands of soldiers under his command.
They immediately dispersed and slowly walked towards the camp of the Corpse King.
Five miles away.
No matter how slow the march is, a quarter of an hour or two will be enough to complete the journey.
"Dismount!"
More than a quarter of an hour later.
Ye Guolu stopped four hundred steps away from the corpse chasing king's camp, and then ordered in a low voice.
The distance of 400 steps is not far away, and it is not close to it.
This distance can ensure that the figures of the soldiers under his command will not be discovered by the Hun patrol soldiers.
It can also order the soldiers who stay in place after the soldiers in front of them complete the battle plan here.
Drive the horse forward in the shortest time at the fastest speed.
The words fell.
The thousands of soldiers who first boarded the camp all turned over and dismounted without saying a word.
"Dismantle the trebuchet and the oil!"
Chang Sanjin ordered again in a low voice.
The words fell.
Thousands of soldiers who first boarded the camp silently carried out military orders.
Meanwhile.
Kang Shouxi, Cao Zezhi and other two hundred elite scouts also quietly gathered towards the place where Ye Guolu and the others were.
More than a quarter of an hour later.
After the 300 small trebuchets, 300 counterweights, and 600 jars of fierce fire oil were all unloaded.
Ye Guolu immediately led 1,000 soldiers to the camp to assemble 300 small trebuchet parts, 300 counterweights and 600 jars of fierce fire oil.
All the smears were transported to the corpse of the king eighty steps away from the camp.
