0165 Elite soldiers

In a valley with a steep rise and a gentle fall, there are more than a thousand Hu guards here.

The soil layer of the slope valley here is loose, and whenever people and horses trample on it, the sand and gravel will peel off and pile up in the valley. After years and months, this slope valley with a width of dozens of zhang, steep up and gentle down is formed.

Although the bottom is gentle, the slope is not conducive to the impact of the cavalry, and the loose soil layer is not suitable for climbing, and can only be entered from the bottom of the valley pass.

When the Xiazhou men and horses bypassed the eastern foot of Baiyu Mountain and suddenly appeared behind the Jihu people and horses to attack, the Jihu people and horses quickly broke up after a long battle, and began to flee in a panic to all sides.

Bai Yu in the mountains of ravines and ravines, the terrain is complex and changeable, some Hu pawns directly crashed into the dead end, waiting to die, and some are lucky, can find a way to survive in the twists and turns.

This group of Jihu men and horses belonged to the latter, and they fled all the way to the periphery of Baiyu Mountain, as long as they rushed up to the ridge behind the valley, they completely left the range of this ditch, and the wilderness was galloping, and it was extremely difficult to chase down again.

Taniguchi pursued the soldiers all the way and still pursued closely, but these Jihu soldiers who had a strong will to survive were also full of fighting spirit at this time, and repelled the attacks of the pursuers several times, and fought and retreated, and had retreated to the middle of the valley, and there was hope of getting out of trouble.

"Dismount and shoot these thieves!"

Yu Wengui, who had traveled around to inspect the battlefield, came here, and after a little inspection of the terrain and battle situation, he ordered.

Li Tai next to him was a little puzzled after hearing this, the terrain here is strange, unless the formation at the valley mouth advances inward, everything else is far away from the core battlefield, and it is not a good place for archers to play.

Before he had time to question here, the more than 100 strong soldiers behind Yu Wengui dismounted one after another, rushed up the steep slope, each pulled out a longbow from the huge leather bag behind him, pressed the bow to fix the string, and then led the bow to shoot downward, the bow body roared loudly, lost like electricity, penetrated the void, and shot dozens of Hu pawns who were far away in the blink of an eye.

When Li Tai saw this scene, he couldn't help but widen his eyes, the strong bows used by these elite soldiers were at least more than five stones!

The weight of the Northern and Southern Dynasties was lighter than that of later dynasties, and the number of bow stones was also greater than that of other dynasties. Like the famous general Yang Kan, who is known for his bravery, he used a bow of twenty stones, and immediately used a six-stone bow, and his arm strength was unbeatable.

However, the generals of previous dynasties did not use bows with such an exaggerated number of stones, the key is that the measurement standards are different, if you compare across eras, this number of stones needs to be halved or more.

Li Tai's bows are mostly two-stone system, taking into account infantry and cavalry combat. Jihu soldiers are mostly equipped with bows of one and a half stones or even less, and they are light and small bows based on riding and shooting. There is already a relatively significant gap between each other, both in range and in terms of loss of force.

A more powerful bow can also be used by Li Tai, and when he fights with three stones, the burden is already relatively large, which seriously affects the stability of his waist and back. The bow can reach four stones when it is opened on the ground, and the quasi-head will be lowered.

Of course, he is still a half-sized child, and his physique and strength have not yet reached their peak, and there is still room for growth. But throughout his life, it is estimated that it is difficult to hope for Yang Kan's kind of willingness, after all, talent is not something that can be caught up with hard work.

Those who open the bow with five stones on the ground, Zhu Meng and a few others in his trilogy can also do it, but most of the time they don't need such a strong bow. After all, in actual battles, no matter how strong an individual is, without the cooperation of the group, the effect that can be played is limited, unless he can kill the enemy's main general with one arrow. …

So when he saw that Yu Wengui's more than 100 parts could actually be used by everyone to shoot a five-stone bow, Li Tai was surprised, his saliva almost flowed, and he couldn't help but sigh, the real heroic army leader is not as simple as having enough people and horses!

There is no foundation to talk about the number, and I am afraid that there will be no hundreds of warriors with strong enough arm strength in the army of 10,000 people, and it must also cooperate with the mature and systematic training methods to invest regardless of the cost, so as to train such a considerable number of strong bow teams.

But after seeing Yu Wengui's elite team, the contempt in his heart suddenly disappeared, these old men in the north have been able to gain a foothold in this realm for many years, and they really have the ability to take care of their families, which should not be underestimated.

No wonder Yuwentai has to treat Yuwengui as a clan relative and try his best to win him over, and it's not just as simple as having the same surname with each other. Just looking at this elite team, it can be inferred that the power of the Yuwengui family in Xiazhou is huge.

With this strong bow team joining the battle, the Jihu soldiers in the valley suddenly became chaotic, and the reason why their fighting spirit was high was not only the desire to survive, but also the advantage of the terrain. But now that others can easily shoot them hundreds of steps away, they will only become a live target if they continue to stay here!

When there was confusion in the Jihu team in the valley, the pursuers in the valley also attacked, and soon the Jihu team was defeated and defeated.

The defeated soldiers were soon drawn out and driven into a valley surrounded by steep walls, where more than 3,000 defeated soldiers had gathered, and Wuyang Wuyang filled the valley.

In the foothills of Baiyu Mountain, the battle continued, mainly the people and horses of Xiazhou were fighting, and the Jihu troops were fleeing in all directions.

The Jihu men and horses that were originally blocked in the east of Guide City have fled, and while the soldiers defending the city breathe a sigh of relief, they can't help but feel a little anxious.

"General, when will reinforcements arrive? If you don't come, those thieves and horses will be besieged and killed by the troops of other states! We are fighting hard here, but we have been picked up by others, this is unbearable! ”

A soldier stood on the head of the city and looked at the scene of chasing and fleeing in the foothills outside the city, and said with an anxious face.

"Lao Tzu is not a Shangguan, how do you know!"

When the guard heard this, he waved his hand impatiently and shouted angrily, his mood was also anxious, but he could only hold his mind in his stomach.

Three days ago, the thief Hu entered the country, and after seeing the huge strength of the thief, he had already sent someone to Wuyuan City to report the emergency, but the reply given by Wuyuan City was to let him hold it for five days before reinforcements arrived.

Xi'an Prefecture Assassin Shi Changshan commanded 3,000 soldiers, plus the soldiers and soldiers, although there were also five or six thousand people, but they needed to be distributed in a vast area, and not far to the west of Wuyuan City was the salt pond land, and many Hu forces coveted it.

Although Fei Ye's first class nominally belongs to the rule, if the defense of Wuyuan City is empty and there are not enough troops to defend and deter, these Hu tribes may not be able to defend themselves.

Therefore, Chang Shan can only coordinate the defense of the people and horses in the governance, and only then can he send a mobile force to help, not deliberately delaying the fighters.

In fact, the same is true of Xiazhou, the northern states are far away from Guanzhong, the cost of garrisoning is too high, and most of them do not have enough mobile forces to adapt, and it has been calculated that they can hold the key cities without losing them. …

But Xiazhou is not the primary target of Jihu's impact, the defensive pressure is not great, and Yu Wengui has a high prestige and deep foundation in Xiazhou, and he can let go of the requisition and dispatch of the local Hao Chieftain forces, which are all advantages that Changshan in Xi'an Prefecture does not have, so he can send troops immediately after receiving the news.

Although the battle took place in the territory of Xi'an Prefecture, the people and horses of Xiazhou were also brave enough to kill the enemy day and night, and rescue the soldiers in Xi'an Prefecture through practical actions.

The more the guard thought about it, the more angry he became, and when he looked at Cui Yansheng, who was standing on the top of the city watching the battle together, he had no feelings of heroic sympathy, and he couldn't help but scold when he pointed at him: "Your father-in-law Li Boshan is not a good thing!" All the people and horses in all states have the responsibility of killing thieves and guarding the border, why do you want to introduce thieves into my Xi'an Prefecture! If I lure these thieves to Xiazhou, won't I send soldiers to rescue them? ”

Cui Yansheng just laughed dryly after hearing this, and he couldn't say that we Li engaged in it just to block you.

After a few days of getting along and fighting, he had a good impression of this seemingly rude, but in fact simple and straightforward guard, and their group also included Li Yan and other wounded who entered the city to seek shelter, although the guard was not polite, but he also took care of the wounded.

So he said: "The thieves are scattered, the current crisis of the city defense is lifted, if the general wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue, I can be the master of the war horse to borrow the army." ”

"If you don't borrow it, Lao Tzu will use it too! The battle exploits in front of the house, how can you let other people scrape all the horses, my son has been fighting hard for a few days, and he always needs to collect some cattle and sheep to eat! ”

The guard first snorted angrily, and then said to Cui Yansheng: "Looking at the bottom of the knowledge, I think that Li Boshan should not be an arrogant and ferocious, power-tying and deceiving the good. Although I am soft-spoken, when the two lords meet in Japan, I also want to make peace for my voice. ”

After saying this, the guard gathered the soldiers who still had strength in the city, and went out of the city in full armor and chased in the direction of the thieves fleeing.

I have to say that Jihu's escape skills are really not blown, although he was trapped in the Baiyu Mountains with complex and unfamiliar terrain, and was intercepted by the people and horses of Xiazhou, but there were still many horses who jumped out of the encirclement and were not completely blocked.

"Lord, we have arrived at the Luoshui River Valley, and we can get out of trouble by walking along the river valley!"

There was a force of two or three thousand men struggling through the valley, and it was none other than King Hao Ren and his tribe. I don't know whether to say lucky or unlucky, because of the eagerness to attack the city, Hao Renwang's headquarters was the closest to Guide City, but he was not attacked by the people and horses on the back road.

When the back road tribes were attacked and collapsed by the Xiazhou people, because of the lack of troops, the city of Guide did not dare to go out of the city for the first time, and actually gave Hao Renwang the opportunity to evacuate from the mountain, and took advantage of the situation to appease many other troops who fled from the army, and the strength recovered.

But King Hao Ren was not happy, he just looked back at the back road and said hatefully: "Those fools, if they can listen to my orders to capture the city early, why will they suffer such a disaster!" ”

As the group continued to run forward, the streams converged, the valley gradually became wider, and hovering birds could be seen in the sky, which meant that they had come to the vicinity of the withered shadows, and as long as they waded and crossed the river in front, they were completely out of the battle circle.

Just when the crowd was secretly rejoicing, a cavalry brigade in the valley of the river ahead was galloping towards it, and the scouts on the opposite side saw that they were defeated, so they shouted loudly: "A number of Kaifu in Beihua Prefecture are leading their troops to the north, and the others are quickly abandoning their weapons!" ”
