Section 74 War 3
Since the Han Empire entered the era of the Southern Han Empire, with the decline of the Southern Han Empire, the grassland barbarians have made great progress, first of all, there are a large number of residents of the Han Empire in the north in order to take refuge, a large number of people enter the grassland, coupled with the barbarians to the south of the Central Plains barbarian plunder, so that the grassland barbarians have obtained a large number of advanced technology, followed by the steppe barbarians in the military, whether it is equipment, or organizational structure, have been greatly improved, and even once pressed the warlord group in the north, making the major families in the north miserable。
After the Great Sui Empire replaced the Southern Han Empire, it also launched more than ten times to launch an expedition against the grassland barbarians, although the barbarians were driven away from the imperial border for thousands of miles, but the barbarians always revived, and they were not able to completely solve it.
In Li Hu, such a family of generals, or slightly different from other families in Guanxi, the Li family inherited the first stage of the Han Empire of the Longxi Li family, with a long history and a long history, among the Guanxi family, only the Yang family is inherited from the second stage of the Han Empire, the Hongnong Yang family, similar to the Li family, but because the Li family has always been a general, and the Yang family is a scholar family, so the Yang family is slightly better than the Li family, and later the Yang family was able to create the Great Sui Empire and replace the Han Emperor, which is one of the reasons. Of course, the Li family was able to ascend to the apex of the Shenzhou Dynasty after the Yang family, and there were similar reasons.
With such a historical origin, it is understandable that Li Hu looks down on the grassland barbarians, but it does not mean that the other five families can also be ignored.
The members of the Yu family who have always been good at wisdom and resourcefulness in the five families are the fourth son of Yu Zhi, the head of the contemporary Yu family, Yu Zhi, this son is as his name, resourceful and decisive, and when he was a teenager, he was a well-known troublemaker in the remaining six families in Kansai, and now he has just turned sixteen years old, but he is already a military advisor of the Yu family. The boy was worried about nothing else, but the location of the ambush of the five private soldiers.
There is one biggest difference between the Yu family and the Li family and other families, that is, the Li family has a daughter who has just been accepted as a disciple by an immortal, but the Yu family has an immortal in their own family - Lin Xiao's cheap senior brother Zhu Sanzi, but he is from the Yu family, but the time and generation are far apart. Although Yu Jin's Yu family family and Yu Sanzi are from the same source, there is a long time apart, but the genealogy is clearly recorded.
The key thing is that although Zhu Sanzi rarely returns to his ancestral home, he has left a lot of various magic weapons and talismans made by himself in the family. Therefore, although Yu Zhi is young, he is the most confident in Li Hu's statement.
"Shibo, my little nephew wants to know where you plan to arrange the five forces for me and the others, not only to avoid the search of the barbarians, but also to be able to send troops in time to disrupt the back roads of the barbarians?"
Li Hu glanced at Yu Zhi and said in his heart: There are so many adults, but only one Xiaomaotou has enough confidence in his own family, and he doesn't know where to stuff his food for so many years, don't you know how powerful the immortals are?
Yu Zhi didn't know that Li Hu was still thinking about his daughter's marriage before the war, but he just watched Li Hu suddenly lose his mind, and thought that Li Hu was thinking about where to place the five private soldiers.
So Yu Zhi spoke again: "Shibo, you see, if the barbarian army gathers, it is estimated that the joint camp will be a hundred miles wide, in order to facilitate the dispatch and protection of shamans, it will definitely be more concentrated, in the humble opinion of the little nephew, it is better to deploy us in the area of Yulinbao, where the terrain is relatively flat, which is very conducive to the charge of cavalry, and then there is a Gobi desert, there is little vegetation, and the barbarians will inevitably take that direction lightly." It's just that it's far away from Jilusai, and when to attack, it's very crucial, I don't know if Shibo has other means to communicate in time?"
When Li Hu heard Yu Zhi's words, he came back to his senses: "It's okay, there is a way to get far and near, but what the old man is worried about is that you have too few troops, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the chaos of the army, so you must be cautious, focus on disrupting the barbarian army, and don't go too deep." “
Seeing that there was no new statement from the children of other families, Li Hu made a final decision: "In this case, please ask Hou Mo Chen Eagle brother to be the commander, and the boy Yu Zhi to join the army, and lead the 100,000 army to move to Yulin Fort first, if our army fights well, the army will attack the back of the barbarians, as for the timing of the attack, the old man will have his own way to inform him." “
That night, while the barbarian vanguard was still building the camp, Hou Mo, Chen Ying, and Yu Zhi quietly left the camp with the private soldiers of the five families from the rear of Jilusai and turned to the direction of Yulin Fort.
Don't look at Li Hu's tent, Hou Mo Chen Eagle looked calm and rude, but he didn't listen to Li Hu's words for this battle, so he put his mind at ease, and when he rode side by side with Yu Zhi, his face still showed worry after all. Because this battle is not just about Li Hu's family, but about the six families that are still in Guanzhong and Guanxi, this is both glory and loss.
If Li Hu is defeated, the barbarians break through the defense of Jilusai and break into Longxi, then the Li Hu family will not need the disposal of the Sui Emperor, and the whole family will be finished, but then the barbarian army can run rampant in Longxi and Guanzhong, and then the troops of the other five families will not be able to return to help in time, and they will be copied by the barbarians, even if the family is not overturned, the vitality will be greatly damaged, and they will no longer be able to fight against the central imperial power.
But in this way, the six families who originally had contradictions were forced together by the Sui Emperor, and it was impossible not to keep warm without holding together, if the chicken and deer plug won a big battle, although the six families would suffer losses, but as long as the six families were united and united to resist the central suppression of the Sui Emperor, it would not take long for them to recover their strength, and even stronger than before, and they would gather the hearts of the people in the Guanxi Guanzhong, and it would be even more difficult for the Sui Emperor to deal with the six families at that time.
On the night when the five private soldiers left Jilusai, Lin Xiao took Li Qing to enter Li Hu's big tent again.
In fact, for Lin Xiao, he only brought Li Qing over before the war, for nothing else, the soldiers are fierce and dangerous, and the grassland barbarians have shamans and snowy monks in the army, if Li Qing still uses the original armor, Lin Xiao is worried that he will not be able to stop the evil magic of the shaman and the monks, and in a chaotic army, the armor of the mortal world is not safe.
Lin Xiao hunted two 10,000-year-old poisonous dragons in the eyes of Xiao Penglaihai back then, and there was no shortage of poisonous dragons' flesh in his hands, and there were more deep scale armor. Not to mention the 10,000-year-old poisonous dragon, even if it is the scale armor of the thousand-year-old poisonous dragon, the smallest piece is the size of a human face, and it is used to refine a set of well-fitting dragon scale armor, but it is very suitable.
It's just that these things have been placed on Xiaopenglai Ximing Island, fortunately, Lin Xiao's body didn't bring it when he went to Little Antarctica, otherwise it would have been delayed even more, Rao is so, when Lin Xiao knew that there was a change in the barbarians outside the Saiwai in Wudang Mountain, he flew the sword and passed the book, so that Qingxuan personally brought two hundred pieces of thousand-year-old poisonous dragon scale armor to Wudang, and when Lin Xiao received something, it was just three days before Li Hu found out that the barbarian striker had arrived.
In exchange for the craftsmanship of the general of the human armor system, it takes a day to make a set of armor with complete parts, just assembling it, and if you start from scratch, a set of high-quality armor is calculated in months. But the methods of the immortal family are different, although Lin Xiao is now the law body of the second elemental god, he can't use the three flavors of true fire, but with the five dragon wheels in hand, refining these little dragon dragon scales that are only 1,500 years old, but they are very fast.
In fact, these dragon scales refined by Lin Xiao did not start from scratch, as early as when the main body built a stargazing platform in the sea eye, these dragon scales were all refined by Lin Xiao with starlight, even if Lin Xiao's body later went to the bright realm where it was easier to attract starlight, the stargazing platform in the sea eye did not stop attracting starlight, these dragon scales had already been refined by starlight - the impurities and toxicity in them were gone, and all that was left was the essence of dragon scales combined with the essence left by starlight.
What Lin Xiao planned to refine with dragon scales was the representative of the pinnacle of armor in Chinese history, the Mingguang armor of the Tang Dynasty. The Mingguang armor of the Tang Dynasty was composed of a scarf, shoulder pads, front and rear plate armor, heart goggles, shawls and knee skirts, as well as arm guards for the lower arm, leg guards for the lower leg, and combat boots. According to the Tang Dynasty Mingguang armor restored from the statue of the Heavenly King of Mogao Grottoes, there are a total of 1590 pieces of fish scale armor and 644 pieces of slat-like iron armor, but Lin Xiao does not plan to use so much, one is that the defense power of the dragon scales itself is not comparable to iron armor, and the other iron armor is extremely high defense, but the weight is there, and its material is not suitable for Lin Xiao to add various symbols on it.
The dragon scales are different, not to mention that after the material of the dragon scales themselves has been refined by the starlight, they have the power to break the evil to avoid the evil, and they are extremely lightweight, plus the area that can be covered is very large, even if Lin Xiao's technique is very subtle, shrinking the dragon scales to a very small size, two hundred dragon scales are enough, why do you need so many things.
Therefore, what Li Hu saw in his eyes was a pair of dark and heavy armor with purple in the whole body, but the two heart goggles on the left and right chests were just the opposite of the armor, bright and dazzling, don't look at Li Hu in a tight tent, and it was still dark night, which still made Li Hu unable to look directly.
In addition to Li Qing's armor, Lin Xiao also refined a long sword for his apprentice, which is different from the scribe's sword, this sword belongs to the cavalry sword, which is long, wide, and thick, which is very conducive to chopping on horses. In addition, Li Qing was carrying an arrow bag on his back, and in the arrow bag was a longbow and ten sharp arrows.
