Chapter 1147: Heavy

Yu Ling's face was a little frightened, the reason why the bed crossbow was not so powerful on the frontal battlefield, it was more used for deterrence, because its rate of fire was not very fast, especially the large bed crossbow, the stronger the bed crossbow, the slower the rate of fire.

Because it takes several people to pass through the winch to slow the winding, and within the range of the bed crossbow, it often shoots at most two or three rounds of siege soldiers have already reached the bottom of the city wall and entered the dead end of the bed crossbow.

But Datang, what kind of attack speed is this? Not only has a perverted range, but even the rate of fire is so perverted? Could it be that their soldiers are all born with divine powers? Otherwise, why could the crossbow be wound at such a fast speed?

If the bed crossbow had such a winding speed, it would be as threatening as before.

Just look at the forward troops of Goguryeo now, almost everyone has a look of horror on their faces, this rate of fire is too fast! It's so fast that it's too much for them to bear.

Because bows and arrows can also be protected by shields, but bed crossbows have no protection.

Almost all shields are vulnerable in front of it, and even if a bed crossbow is grazed next to a person's body, it is estimated that it can carry out a large piece of flesh, such a wound is fatal on the battlefield.

"Withdraw! Withdrawal! Mingjin retreats! Yu Ling yelled and gave the order directly.

With such an attack speed of the bed crossbow, their forward 1,000 soldiers rushed through the distance of five hundred meters, even the fastest speed is estimated to kill hundreds, and after the distance is close, there are bows and arrows.

He didn't believe that Datang only had bed crossbows, Datang's bed crossbows were so perverted, and the bow and arrow would definitely not be too bad.

The sound of Mingjin retreating quickly resounded on the battlefield, and the Goguryeo soldiers began to retreat backwards, and the large forces of Goguryeo also began to retreat backwards.

There is no point in continuing to shoot, such a battlefield is the most important, killing and wounding a few people does not have much effect, and the number of enemies is estimated to be as many as 100,000 if you count them all, and they only have 10,000.

Therefore, it is difficult to make the enemy retreat by killing alone, and it is enough for the two sides to maintain a tacit understanding.

And now let him know the heaviness of Datang, and he should know the rest.

Seeing that Datang stopped shooting and continued to shoot, even in the process of their retreat, it was no problem to shoot at least one more round with the power of Datang's bed crossbow, but Datang stopped.

The battlefield not far away may not be called a battlefield, after all, only Goguryeo soldiers were killed and wounded here.

Many Goguryeo soldiers were still wailing on the battlefield, Yu Ling was silent for a while, and then gritted his teeth and said: "Order the auxiliaries to enter the field, remove all weapons and equipment, go to save people, if the Tang Dynasty attacks, retreat, if the Tang Dynasty does not attack, bring back the corpses and so on." ”

"Yes!"

Auxiliaries are some non-elite, they are doing miscellaneous work in various armies in ancient times, and the armies of various countries have them, and Goguryeo naturally also has them.

But are there doctors and medical officers in the army? Yes! To be precise, although they are called military doctors, they are all drawn from Langzhong and the medical department of the imperial court to serve as medical officers with the army.

But they could not replenish the individual troops, but concentrated on the march of the large army, because there were not so many medical officers or military doctors who could be popularized to the grassroots troops.

Only Datang has trained a large number of grassroots medical officers and soldiers because of the "Military Medical Manual".

These officers and soldiers are the same as the barefoot doctors who have achieved the treatment of diseases through the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual", they know it but do not know why, they are trained to be on the battlefield to urgently treat external injuries, emergency rescue, as for the follow-up treatment in Datang There are also military doctors with the army, and they will be handed over to these military doctors to be responsible for when the time comes.

And Goguryeo's salvation can only be done by these auxiliaries.

Just like Yu Ling thought, when these auxiliaries came on the field, Datang probably thought that they were wasting crossbow arrows, or they simply maintained a tacit understanding and did not attack these soldiers who collected the corpses and wounded.

Seeing that Datang did not attack, these auxiliaries became emboldened and quickly began to act on the battlefield.

And the military doctor who accompanied the army on Yu Ling's side also quickly rushed into the battlefield and began emergency rescue.

When they had removed all the wounded and corpses from the battlefield, the cities of the Tang Dynasty remained calm, as if there was no reaction.

Yu Ling withdrew his troops, and directly retreated more than ten miles before starting to camp.

There are several villages near here, most of the people in the village have run away, and Yu Ling, who didn't run, didn't care, naturally someone dealt with it, anyway, there were almost no outsiders left in the village and nearby.

"General, the casualty statistics have come out, 432 people were killed in the battle, and 86 were wounded, whether they can continue to live at present depends on the follow-up treatment." Soon the general in charge of logistics came to report.

Yu Ling: "......"

Just one shot, before they could attack the bottom of the city, the forward troops of 1,000 people killed more than 430 people? The casualty rate has already exceeded fifty, and if it hadn't happened too quickly, it is estimated that their army would have collapsed long ago.

That is, Datang's attack was too fast, so fast that these soldiers didn't react at all, so there was no collapse or anything like that, and it is estimated that they don't know how many people they died.

"I know, now we also know a little bit about the army of the Tang Dynasty, well, find someone to write a report, just say that our army and the Tang army have engaged in a battle, with more than 500 casualties, occupying three cities, and are currently in a confrontation with the Tang army." Yu Ling pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

"Yes!"

You have to look at how you write it.

Is there a problem with Yu Ling's record? No, what he wrote is the truth, and these three cities were indeed taken by him, and no one can find faults.

Are there more than 500 casualties? Taking three cities is only more than 500 casualties, this is a big victory, okay!

As for the next battle, Yu Ling pondered for a moment, it seems that the old patriarch is right, he has to come steadily, and it is normal for the battle line to be anxious.

Yu Ling had an idea here, although Li Daozong didn't know, but he didn't bother to pay attention to these, he just carried out his own things step by step.

For example, the refugees who fled to this county were hired first.

However, at the beginning, Datang could not be hired directly.

Again, your kindness to them is like sugar, and after eating it, it's gone. But the damage caused to them is an unforgettable wound, and there are scars after they are healed.

So you have to let them have scars before giving them candy.
