Ding Laosan held a horse lance, stood about 100 paces away from the enemy's bonfire, and shouted: "Come on! Grandpa Ding Laosan is here! ”

Well?

The enemies who were singing and dancing turned their heads one after another, and in the next second, they all dropped the wine and meat in their hands, picked up the blades not far away, and roared at Ding Laosan and killed them.

Ding Laosan threw the horse lance in his hand, turned around and ran.

Why lose the lance? Is it good that the horse lance is very expensive? Nonsense, the horse lance is dead and heavy, and it can't run at all with it.

Datang is the most powerful country in the world at this time, well-equipped and rich in materials, compared with these foreign countries in the Western Regions, the advantage lies in the equipment of this body, such as fish scale armor.

In Datang, it is not a crime to hide swords privately, because Datang is still martial, who doesn't have swords or the like, practice martial arts.

However, it has always been taboo to keep clothes and armor privately. Since the time of the Han Dynasty, Zhou Yafu, a famous general in the Western Han Dynasty, was feared by the emperor because he was denounced and secretly hid 500 sets of armor, and was sentenced to prison, and died of hunger strike for five days.

Can five hundred sets of armor rebel? Of course not, far from it. Zhou Yafu's fame at that time was already the largest general in the country, he collected armor as a funeral item, and he fought all his life, and when he left, he had to lead his troops to fight in the underworld like the first emperor.

But no, it's taboo.

Because of the sharp weapons of the knife soldiers, the blade will be curled or broken if the number of slashes is more, so if the enemy is wearing fish scale armor, or leather armor and paper armor when the materials are scarce, they can effectively defend against the slashing of the knife soldiers, even if it is a sharp blade, the fish scale armor can be blocked, and the leather armor paper armor can turn serious injuries into small wounds.

The greater role of the armor is to block the arrows, and the fish scale armor of the Tang Dynasty's well-defended body, except for the front door, the arrows basically slipped off when they hit, leaving not even a scratch. For example, Xiao Gui, the standard-bearer of the Eighth Regiment, was on this set. The enemy attacks the city, shoots arrows from the bottom up, and when the arrows come over, the force is already near, the power is greatly reduced, and when it encounters armor, even if it is useless.

Bad luck, such as Liu Zongqi, this thing was shot under the armpit of the side body, he is not Xiao Gui's full armor, but two pieces of armor in front and back, two shoulders, and several pieces, there is a gap in the middle, and he was shot into the gap by coincidence.

In the face of well-equipped and armored enemies, at this time, heavy blunt weapons such as mountain axes, pumpkin hammers, hammers, clubs, whips, hammers, claws, and abduction meteors can cause more effective damage, and they are all internal injuries on the body, which can directly make the opponent lose their combat effectiveness.

You have a bleeding knife on your body, as long as you don't hurt your muscles and bones, then you don't delay the battle, but what about your broken ribs? It hurts to cough a little, let alone fight again.

At this time, in the battle of Fengsui Fort, why could more than 200 people in the Tang Dynasty be able to come forward to the Western Regions? It's because of this piece of equipment. The enemies are all wearing fox fur and animal skin robes, without the tough armor of Datang, in the face of Datang's strong bows and crossbows, and sharper arrows, basically those who hit will be injured, and there is no defense.

Otherwise, 200 men would not have been able to hold out for twenty days.

At this time, Ding Laosan was able to run back to the city, thanks to his armor, otherwise he would have been shot down by others.

"Hurry up, hurry up, ......," shouted the people at the head of the city.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the city wall, they immediately approached the range of the bow and crossbow, and the enemy pursued cautiously.

However, Ding Laosan stumbled and fell.

The pursuers also stopped, and the person at the head bent his bow and arrows, aiming at Ding Laosan, wanting to shoot the other party, so that there was no need to get close and there would be casualties.

Sou! A sharp crossbow arrow pierced the archer's throat with precision. Frightened, all the pursuers took a step back.

"Good! Go down personally, go down personally, and pull the third child up. ”

The corners of Zhang Xiaojing's mouth curved, he easily withdrew the hard crossbow, turned his head to Xiao Gui beside him and said, "I'm okay, right?" ”

Xiao Gui nodded: "This is in Anxi, even if it is a first-class good player." Well, it's a little bit worse than me. ”

Zhang Xiaojing smiled, "I'm not afraid of being worse than you, anyway, in this life, we can't be enemies." ”

After speaking, he got up and drew the horizontal knife at his waist, and shouted: "Prepare for the enemy army to attack the city and cut them all down on this beacon fort!" ”

At dawn the next day, as the battle dragged on, another layer of enemy corpses and countless arrows lay under the city. At the head of the city, Captain Su stuck a few more arrows in his head.

It was dawn, but it was cloudy again, and it was raining. Everyone was depressed and raised their shields to avoid the rain at their respective posts.

The gang leader Zhang Shilang rummaged through the cloth bags, but he couldn't pour out any residue.

Towards Wen Wuji asked, "Team Wen, why don't they fight yet?" What are you waiting for? ”

Wen Wuji didn't answer, and Zhang Xiaojing next to him was about to get up, "I'll go fight a wolf and let Lao Wen roast wolf meat for us." ”

Wen Wuji stretched out his hand and pressed him, "Let us eat the lonely, there are more than a hundred wolves left nearby, you can give them a snack?" ”

The crowd laughed.

The standard-bearer, Xiao Gui, was at the top, reached out and took some rain and poured it into his mouth.

Ding Laosan's will became worse and worse, and he muttered: "The Eighth Regiment, the Anxi Iron Army, is here, starved to death." It's too wretched, too wretched......"

After a while, I couldn't help it, and Ding Laosan shouted: "If you want to live, follow me!" ”

There were really two people who raised their shields and walked towards Ding Laosan.

Zhang Xiaojing drank and asked, "What are you doing, third child?" ”

"Go home!"

"The Eighth Regiment, Nine Deaths Without Regrets!" Zhang Xiaojing said sharply.

Ding Laosan threw away the shield to block the rain, walked to Zhang Xiaojing's side with a cat's waist, stared at the other party with dead eyes and said: "If I am starved to death, every time my mother eats, she will think of me!" ”

The weak Liu Zongqi said: "My home is in Qiuzi Town, just a day's road. ”

Zhang Xiaojing looked at Ding Laosan and asked in a cold voice, "Do you want to be a deserter of the Tang Dynasty?" ”

Ding Laosan lowered his head and said weakly: "The captain died in his duties, the reinforcements have not arrived, and my duty has been fulfilled." ”

Immediately, he saluted towards Wen Wuji, "Please disarm and return to the field!" ”

Wen Wuji remained motionless, leaning against the wall with his eyes closed, I don't know if he acquiesced or didn't agree.

Zhang Xiaojing grabbed Ding Laosan and said, "You are losing the face of the Eighth Regiment!" ”

"Keep your face for you!" Ding Lao San shouted.

Liu Zongqi next to him cried and said: "I miss my grandmother, I also want to go home!" ”

"Hu Rennan slave, volunteered to join the army, defended the Tang Dynasty, and was willing to die in battle rather than starve to death." Another voice rang out.

Ding Laosan got up and walked to Nan Nuzi's side: "I'll take you away." ”

Zhang Xiaojing got up angrily: "The eighth regiment, nine deaths without regrets!" No refund! Today, whoever walks will be killed! ”

The crowd got up one after another, and an argument was about to break out.

At this time, on the city wall behind Captain Su, a man wearing a bearded robe climbed up, interrupting the atmosphere of confrontation, and everyone turned their heads to look. It was Chen Xingfan, Chen Xingfan, who ran to report for help, came back and brought food.

Everyone was overjoyed, and soon they lit a fire in the dilapidated city gate building to cook, "Nannuzi, hurry up and ......"

"Taiyuan Mansion is famous for eating, dry fried millet, specializing in the treatment of too much food and a full stomach......" After the food was fried, Nannuzi smiled and distributed the food one by one.

"Chen Xingfan, it's been more than ten days, I thought you were in the desert and were eaten by eagles." Someone patted Chen Xingfan on the shoulder and said.

Chen Xingfan quipped: "I'm dead, who will give you a banquet?" Reinforcements are coming soon! ”

"Chen Xingfan, Chen Xingfan, follow me to the beacon tower." Wen Wuji shouted.

The two of them held the shield all the way, and the cat's waist came to the beacon tower, and Wen Wuji asked in a deep voice, "Where did you get the military rations?" ”

"It's from the Turtle Castle!" Chen Xingfan said with a smile, "Let me tell you, the military families of the group of people who reclaimed the military land in the fort are really enthusiastic, if they don't see that I am lonely, I can't take it, and they can't wait for me to move the entire granary, hahahaha......"

Wen Wuji didn't smile, stared at Chen Xingfan and asked, "Since the reinforcements are behind, why didn't you send someone to send you back?" ”
