Chapter 940: Sincerity is nirvana
Everyone instantly stood up from their positions, and although it was only evening and it was not yet completely dark, they had already lit a bonfire, and they were well enough to provoke a large crowd like them.
Even wolves are no exception, and in the wild, wild animals such as wolves, tigers, and bears generally do not actively attack humans unless they are extremely hungry. What's more, the wolves on the grassland have dealt with the herdsmen to some extent, and they all know that the herdsmen have bows and arrows in their hands that threaten them.
When a little ghost light appeared in the distance, everyone took a deep breath, "It's a wolf pack, and it's a large wolf pack, it's not right." Baoli gasped, and then subconsciously spoke.
"Baoli, what's the situation?" The political commissar just now said with a serious face.
"Political commissar, it's a wolf pack, there are about fifty wolves by sight, this is not right, a wolf pack of this size can only appear in the extremely cold winter, this season is rich in food, and wolves generally do not gather on such a large scale." Baoli's face was serious, "The general size of the wolf pack is five to a dozen. ”
The political commissar is not nervous, they are all professional soldiers here, not to mention that there are two hundred herdsman cavalry, even if there are no herdsmen, only one hundred of them Tang cavalry, the political commissar is not nervous, just the armor on their bodies, the wolves come to send it.
Of course, wild animals are used to targeting the weaknesses of living things, and armor is not completely protected, but at least the flexibility of humans can take the initiative to send some non-vital points into the wolf's mouth, and then take the opportunity to kill the wolf pack.
So this commissar is naturally not worried, don't talk about them, I didn't see the horses around them, and the war horses of these herdsmen were somewhat commotionous. However, the war horses of the Tang Dynasty did not move.
It's not that Datang's war horses are stronger, but I haven't seen them.
And these war horses have undergone some rigorous sound and light training, compared to the sound produced by the explosion of gunpowder, these wolf howls, just like that.
The war horses on the grassland have seen wolves and know how terrible the wolves are, so they are a little commotionful, but they are also calm.
"Zhou Min." The commissar spoke loudly.
"Here."
"Give them all the armor, and you will guard the perimeter first, and let all of them put it on, and give them weapons and arrows." The commissar spoke loudly.
"Yes! Everyone, come here, put on your armor. The adjutant who called Zhou Min yelled, and then directly took out a set of armor from the rubbing bag that was unloaded on the war horse next to him.
They were three hundred in all, but not three hundred horses.
"To us?" Baoli was stunned for a moment and pointed at himself.
"Of course for you, these were originally for you, originally it was too hot, and they were prepared for you after you arrived at the place, but now they are in danger, so wear them." The political commissar said with a calm face.
Baoli was stunned for a moment, under the light of the fire, the all-steel armor shone brightly, and it could be seen that the shape of these armors was the same as the armor worn by these Tang Dynasty soldiers.
This...... Is it just for them? You must know that here, there are 200 of them Turks, and these Tang soldiers are only 100.
If they put on these armors, they can be defeated and killed at any time.
Baoli didn't know how to express his thoughts for a while, this kind of question, he thought of it, and there was no reason why these Datang people couldn't think of it.
"What are you doing in a daze, wearing it." The commissar shouted.
Soon these Turks were wrapped inside, and the outside was garrisoned by Tang soldiers, and pieces of armor were taken out of the panniers unloaded on the ground, and then handed to them.
After the Turkic soldiers were silent, they all began to wear their armor silently.
Directly put the armor on the outside of the leather armor on their original bodies.
The wolves did not attack, they were still far away, and they could not see where the head wolf was, but they did not evacuate either.
It's like a state of encirclement from a distance.
Soon all the Turkic soldiers put on their armor and touched the brand new steel armor on their bodies, Baoli didn't know what mood it was, he had never worn it in his life, oh no, let alone wear it, he had never seen such neat armor.
Even the khan's personal guards, and even the generals' armor were not as complete as they were, and the protective area was so large.
And he touched it, the piece of iron...... It was so hard that he couldn't even bend his hands, which was much stronger than the pieces of iron on some of the iron armor he'd ever seen.
"Use this." A person next to him directly pulled out a few arrows and handed them over.
Baoli subconsciously stretched out his hand to take it, when he saw the cold light flashing on the arrow, the arrow of the opening edge looked extremely hideous, such an iron arrow Baoli didn't know what kind of armor could protect.
And what arrows did they use before the Turks? The most abundant are bone arrowheads, which are made of animal teeth and bones, because this is the most common, most numerous, and relatively sharp material in the grasslands.
There are also iron arrowheads, and the number is too small and too few. And the herdsmen themselves use, even bone arrowheads, there are very few, they all use wooden arrowheads, no way, poor.
Looking at these hideous arrows, he suddenly understood why the khan was unwilling to fight with the Tang Dynasty, and in the face of such a Tang army, how could they fight?
"These wolves probably won't attack, they may have only seen a large number of horses gathering from a distance, and they didn't see us, thinking they had prey." Baoli said.
The grassland at night is still very cold, although it is now the end of June, but on their grassland, sometimes it snows in June, and the temperature difference between day and night is large.
So at the beginning, they all let the war horses go around the outside, and they were all inside, and hundreds of war horses surrounded the circle, and it was normal for them to be discovered by the wolves.
If you see people now, there is a high probability that these wolves will not be on it.
"It's not the best, if it's on, protect yourself, the war horse is not important, talent is the most important thing, understand?" The political commissar confessed.
"Don't worry, there are so many of us, these dozens of wolves, they won't attack, after all, there is no shortage of food on the grassland this season, if it's winter, and after heavy snowfall, it's hard to say." Baoli said with a smile.
As it turned out, the Turkic people knew a lot about the steppe wolves, and the wolves stayed around for about an hour, during which time they were close to them for about a few tens of meters, and finally retreated.
Although the wolves left, the commissar still arranged for people to keep vigil for two hours each.
The wolves did not appear again until the sun rose the next day, and it was clear that these steppe wolves were not stupid, and they did not risk their lives to rush up, unless they had been hungry for a long time.
