Chapter 270: Don't rush in, fight steadily
After listening to the Black Tiger's report, Ye Lie's interest immediately came up.
"Take me now!"
He said, his eyes shining.
Ye Yu's armory!
That must have had a lot of equipment and ammunition.
If you can use them all, even if you have a new musket team of 10,000, you can have enough advantages in the next battle!
Because they have a large number of people, even if they lose 30,000 combat strength, he can still rely on the rest of the people to continue the attack!
"Your Majesty, there may be some hidden enemies, please wait for Your Majesty first."
Black Tiger stopped, "Wait until the border is completely occupied, and then deal with it." ”
"By the way, there are also the mountains and the border of the King of Stability."
Ye Lie thought along with what the black tiger said, "The whole army advanced forward for five miles, digging ditches and establishing a defensive line. Then Black Tiger, you send people to encircle and suppress all the Southern Dynasty troops in the mountainous area and on the border of King Anding, and save their equipment and ammunition as much as possible. If you can, take some prisoners. ”
He needed some people to teach his people how to use those weapons.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is better to fight steadily, the Southern Korean army on both sides is already a turtle in the urn, so it is better to sort out the defense line first and then deal with it."
Black Tiger nodded.
"Well, I mean the same thing, don't rush in, play steady!"
Ye Lie nodded, "When the armory is cleaned up, tell me!" ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and began fiddling with the Nanchao II rifle and bullets.
These pointed-nosed bullets are so powerful that they can easily pierce the shields and armor of shield-wielding infantry.
It also has a longer range than its own musket.
If it weren't for the longbowmen, they wouldn't have been able to break through the defenses.
Therefore, Ye Lie felt that he needed to call someone to study these things together.
The first batch can be the weapons that can be directly used to collect Ye Yu's army, but later they need to imitate!
Otherwise, for his hundreds of thousands of troops, these weapons are simply a drop in the bucket.
At the same time, Ye Yu had already received the news that the entire front on the border had been defeated.
"Zhang Detian, gather the retreating soldiers, comfort them as much as possible, and let them rest for a while. The frontal defense will be handed over to you and Yang Jiang, and during this time, collect as many defeated troops as possible. ”
Ye Yu thought about it and ordered, "When you see Sun Di and Zhao Qing, let them come to me immediately." ”
"Yes!"
After Yang Jiang and Zhang Detian replied, they saw Ye Yu leave the headquarters.
At this time, Ye Lie was outside, watching the soldiers build a defensive line.
When Mr. Wenzhu saw Ye Yu coming, he called Ye Xiong.
"Say it on the side."
Ye Yu seemed to have something to say about Ye Xiong, there were many soldiers here, and Ye Xiong's identity could not be exposed.
So they went to the back of the dense forest, and found a relatively clean place to sit on the ground.
"Mr. Wenzhu, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Ye Yu nodded and spoke slowly.
In fact, there have been sporadic soldiers returning since just now.
From their mouths, we already know some of the more tragic conditions on the front line.
"This war is not good, and I think it will be dangerous in the future."
"There are not many retreating soldiers, it seems that Ye Lie should have already obtained the equipment of the Southern Dynasty."
Mr. Wenzhu said, "If they copy a lot of it, then our advantages will be gone." ”
His words were very pertinent, and Ye Yu was also partially affirmative.
"However, it is a little difficult for the Jia Dynasty to make those weapons."
"Without the corresponding technology of the factory, it is very difficult to make these weapons accurately."
Ye Yu nodded and said, "What Mr. Wenzhu said is difficult to fight, and it is true. It's not impossible, though. ”
Before Ye Yu's words fell, Mr. Wen Zhu and Ye Xiong both nodded.
"Take precautions, Your Highness has foreseen this defeat, and has done a good job, and there is indeed still the strength to fight."
Mr. Wenzhu nodded, "But the disadvantage in numbers must be transformed." ”
"Well, so I put the battle line in the woods behind the plains, and as long as they charge from the plains, we have artillery."
Ye Yu nodded and said, "If you dig a trench over, it will take at least a few days, and we have enough time to deal with it these days." ”
"Have you thought of a way to deal with their trenches?"
Ye Lie raised his eyebrows, as if to say: This is my son!
"We are also defending mainly in the trenches, but only defensively."
"Offense, I'm not going to play like that."
Ye Yu said and smiled slightly, "Attacking is about mobility. Father, you should have seen the battle formation of those three squads, right? ”
"It's true, it's flexible, and everybody keeps a certain distance, and it doesn't necessarily get hurt."
Ye Xiong nodded.
"Many of those who came back this time were lightly wounded, and they were wounded by bows and arrows, and they should have shot in the trenches with longbowmen with curved shots."
Ye Yu thought for a while and said, "To put it bluntly, it's still a simple ranged soldier. ”
"But Your Highness, aren't these also ranged soldiers?"
Mr. Wen Zhu asked rhetorically, with some doubt on his face.
"I'm not a ranged soldier, I'm a comprehensive soldier."
Ye Yu said, "There are equipment for close-range combat and equipment for long-distance shooting, and everyone has to go through the assessment of close-range combat. To put it bluntly, they used to fight desperately with swords, but now they have more means of long-range attacks. ”
After his explanation, Mr. Wenzhu nodded.
After this offensive and defensive battle, the two sides were almost dumbfounded.
Ye Yu didn't rush out to fight back, and Ye Lie didn't rush forward.
Thirty miles from the demilitarized zone to the south of the river, neither of them made much offensive moves.
And so it went for two days.
In the past two days, Yang Jiang took Zhang Detian and the rest of his people to build a defensive line.
Zhang Detian was responsible for receiving the retired soldiers.
The wounded were sent to the doctors, while the others were set up in the rear of the command to rest.
On the third day, Sun Di and Zhao Qing came back one after another.
The two of them had a grim face and finally ran back with less than a dozen soldiers left.
As soon as they returned, they drank water vigorously, and they had not drunk much water for more than a day, relying on the grass and wild fruits they had found on the road to survive until now.
"General Zhao, General Sun, Your Highness wants to see you."
Zhang Ye personally brought the words, and then went to report to Ye Yu.
"What should I do?"
Zhao Qing and Sun Di looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a while.
I regret it in my heart, and it would be better to say something if I died directly in battle at that time.
A trace of fear slowly appeared in the blank hearts of the two of them.
With him is a whole corps, fifteen thousand people, five divisions!
Well-equipped, quite ferocious in combat and even five divisions of artillery!
But there was such a big defeat!
I don't even know how many people are left!
"Forget it, we've both died once anyway."
Zhao Qing said slowly, "I helped General Weiyuan rebel before, if we really resist a little more, wouldn't we be dead?" ”
