Chapter 111: Xiliang Heavy Riding (Asking for Subscription)

When the sky was dark, it began to drizzle, and Longyang County, which had experienced a major battle, was shrouded in water vapor.

After the ban on the streets was lifted, people gradually moved around the streets, but they did not dare to be casual, and watched a group of soldiers hurrying through the rain with vigilance.

This is the second day after the war, you can go to the street, for the people in the city, a little incredible, go out to fetch water and buy vegetables, the women of the nearby people gather by the well and whisper about the siege of the city, occasionally there are soldiers and horses passing by the alley, everyone shut up at the right time, and when the footsteps are far away, they begin to talk again.

"Ouch, yesterday scared people to death, and if you say war, you will fight."

"But it's not, my family was still requisitioned to the city wall, but when he came back, he was completely naked, and he didn't even have dirty pants, and he was sent back by a few rebel soldiers, saying that he was sneaky on the street...... Hey, why do you say you go to the city wall and take off your robe? ”

"Is it possible for your family...... It's a ...... to be a man in someone else's house."

"This dead ghost...... If you don't plow your own field, you run to plow other people's fields! A stout woman went away angrily with a small bag of corn.

The rest of the women snickered a few times and continued to gossip about the market.

"This morning, I heard that General Wang, who was sent by the imperial court, died in battle yesterday."

"Alas, it's a pity, why did you lose your life to a faint king."

"Who told you that the emperor is a faint king?"

"It's not a faint king, why are so many people against him?"

After the siege, the four gates need to be repaired, and the corpses on the head of the city also begin to be carried today, and the donkey carts and boards are pulled to the suburbs to be buried, and when they pass by the city wall, they will let the people who guard there claim them, and if there are their relatives among them, they can be brought back and buried by themselves.

On the battlefield, the sword has no eyes, and no one is to blame.

Some found the bodies of their relatives, holding the corpses and wailing near the city gates, and for a time there were cries at the four gates. The corpses of the soldiers of Bingzhou and Xiliang were cremated, and the ashes were stuffed into clay pots with their names written one by one, and then returned to Ding'an City to be handed over to their relatives, and then presented with bereavement.

The servants of the government also came back one after another this morning, and the bodies of the Taishou family were also found in the palace when they were re-searched by the soldiers, and several members of the family were stuffed into several large vat of pickles.

The soldiers began to sweep the streets and the blood stains on the city walls with a group of people, and more than 20,000 soldiers in the city were concentrated in the barracks outside the city, and another 3,000 broke through the east gate and fled back to the counties that night.

In the city of Longyang, the voices of people are noisy and shouting, and the moans of chariots, horses, and wooden wheels, and the cheers and shouts of soldiers sound in the streets from time to time. Su Chen rode through the street, looking at the gradually recovering market, finally with a smile on his face, and turned a street in front of him, which led to the east city gate, and now all the military camps were moved to the eastern suburbs.

It is still two military camps in Bingzhou and Xiliang, separated by five miles, occupying the north and south terrain of Longyang, and forming a horn with the city.

Su Chen turned his head, glanced at the corpses hanging in a row on the gate of the city tower, turned his face, and smiled: "The Aragami Sect has dispatched so many masters this time, I'm afraid that the family will lose everything, but I don't know how high the sect leader in the sect is, how high his martial arts are, can he win the battle?" ”

"Hmph, I'm not afraid of death, but I'm still afraid of these green forests?"

Dian Wei carried a double halberd on his back, and he could keep up with the slow-moving war horse with his casual steps, and he didn't pay attention to Su Chen's inquiry at all.

"Be careful, let's go to the Xiliang military camp first."

Coming together this morning, all the generals in the government basically went to deal with the post-war affairs, only Su Chen was the last to open his eyes, and he was already three poles in bed together.

After two miles to the northeast, the outline of the camp has been shown at the bottom of the eye, after yesterday's battle, the Xiliang soldiers have been less than 10,000 people, 1,000 casualties, of which 300 were killed in direct battle, 79 people were seriously injured and killed, and the remaining 621 injuries were different, and the next battle was basically unable to participate.

The soldiers guarding the gate saw the horse team coming from a distance, and they stood in two rows, holding their spears straight, Su Chen bowed his head at them one by one, and asked where Dong Zhuo and Li Dao were.

After getting the answer to the school, he rode directly over, and before he got there, he heard a clattering sound, and the gorgeous armor was being cleaned out in different categories and combined with other parts.

Among the mountains of armor, there were also many war horses and iron armor, and Li Dao had an excited smile on his face, and he was comparing with Dong Zhuobi.

Then, he picked up a piece of war horse iron armor, asked people to come and put on his war horse, and knocked on it a few times with his big hand.

"Dong Gong, these six hundred sets can just be given to the Flying Bear Army, and now we have the Xiliang Iron Cavalry."

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the two turned around, and when they saw Su Chen and Dian Wei, they immediately greeted them with a smile and arched their hands: "Why don't you rest much, general." ”

"All the generals don't rest, how can I sleep." Su Chen dismounted and returned the salute, then walked past the two of them, looked at these iron armors, and laughed: "Wen Hou's side, they don't fight with you?" ”

As he spoke, he also patted the iron armor on Li Wei's war horse: "Good thing, yesterday Wang Chengwu led a heavy cavalry to break through the formation, and almost made him succeed." ”

"Haha, the old man wants it, why don't I give it to my son Fengxian?" Dong Zhuo patted his bulging belly, and his smiling face was quite proud.

On the side, Li Dao leaned over to Su Chen's side and whispered: "Dong Gong actually told Lu Bu that he used this batch of iron armor and war horses to write off the fact that he stabbed Dong Gong to death back then. ”

Ahem!

Dong Zhuo frowned and coughed twice, and Li Dao hurriedly stood up straight. However, it can be seen that Dong Zhuoken lowered his face and personally asked Lu Bu for it, and he really coveted these vests and iron armors.

Because of the complicated workmanship, the workshop in Ding'an can't make such a kind of work for the time being, but the seized ones can still be used for repair. It just happened to match Li Dao's 600 Flying Bear Army.

"When repairing these iron armors, you might as well add iron buckles on both sides of the war horse iron armor, and string up the iron chain between the war horse and the war horse, and the heavy cavalry momentum together, the middle iron chain can also scrape down the enemy layer by layer, if the iron chain is inserted with iron cones, the power of the charge will probably be better."

Su Chen's suggestion was based on the iron floating slaughter of the Jin Kingdom, but the armor of the cavalry was definitely inferior to that of the other party, he just picked up a cavalry iron armor, with bright colors and gorgeous decorations, it was simply a magnet to attract the opponent's arrows, and put it on the battlefield, which was too conspicuous.

"General, your suggestion is good, but if one horse falls, then don't you pull the other horses down together?" After all, Li Dao is the commander of the Flying Bear Army, and he can understand the disadvantages of the cavalry, so he can naturally think of the drawbacks.

"Put the iron buckle and add a sliding opening, if you ride down the iron chain, it will slide down, break free from the opening, and the iron rider next to it will not be affected."

Saying that, Su Chen had a whim and asked Li Wei to call the Flying Bear Army to choose the right one for each person and each horse.

In the morning sunshine, the six hundred flying bear army gathered in the school field, came over to select in turn, and then put armor on the war horses, these armor had many scratches and blood stains, but it did not affect the wear.

The leather armor light cavalry on the original school field disappeared, and the Xiliang heavy cavalry wearing iron armor reappeared, and on the back of the fully draped war horses, the cavalry put on iron helmets one after another, pulling down the face armor.

Suddenly exuded a killing aura.

"Now......" Su Chen rode his horse in front of them, "you are the real Xiliang Flying Bear Army, the real elite." ”

The six hundred horsemen who were given their names raised their blades or spears in their hands with iron masks.

"Long live the General!"

The surrounding Xiliang foot soldiers also shouted, and the roaring sound resounded throughout Dazhai.

Since the state army has wolf cavalry, the knot in the hearts of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army has finally been untied, and they have their own cavalry, although the number is not large, but on the battlefield, it is an existence that people dare not covet.

Su Chen then turned over and went to the Bingzhou military camp again, checked the situation of the wounded soldiers, and began to take the five counties under the rule of Longyang, because after the first battle of Longyang, the defeated soldiers who fled back sent the battle situation here to the yamen of each county.

Later, they were personally received by Su Chen, and after some encouragement, they scolded the imperial court for letting the barbarians enter the customs, and said that they would open a warehouse and transport grain to the army, and then rush back to the counties.

For these people, Su Chen has always maintained a cautious attitude and does not take it seriously, but he must take the grain and herbs.

At the same time, after receiving the news that Wang Chengwu was killed in battle and Longyang County was lost, the emperor, civil and military emotions in the Yanjing court were close to collapse, and the people in the city gradually became panicked.

For a while, Yanjing was in a state of nervous tension from top to bottom.
