Chapter 100: On the Wall (1)

The thoughts are different, the mood is really different, Li Fengyun suddenly felt that his head didn't hurt anymore, and the scenery was different, and when he walked out of the room, he only felt that the Du Mansion was full of spring and vitality, and the maids and servants who hurried by became much more pleasing to the eye.

“...... The enemy army outside the city is simply crazy, I don't know if Zhenzhou City can be defended!"

"Don't worry, with the lord here, how can you not keep it? The lord is a famous general who has fought for many years, and he is a figure who can be counted in the Great Jin, what are you afraid of?"

Two domestic servants whispered as they walked by.

"What, Yang Guangyuan is attacking the city?" Li Fengyun jumped forward and grabbed the two servants.

"Li Shaoxia, don't you know?" a domestic servant Qi said, "The whole Zhenzhou City knows, the attack was not fierce a few days ago, today the enemy army outside the city suddenly went crazy, I heard that four or five thousand people have died, just because of this matter, the lord will replace the eldest prince from the south gate, replaced by the brave and warlike General Zhang Yanze, General Fu Yanqing also went up, I heard that General Wang Chongyin is also going to be sent to the head of the city." That's all because I've become a famous general in the German army!"

Li Fengyun let go of the two of them, hurriedly left the Du Mansion, went home to get the night practice sword, and went straight towards the south city gate. His physique is abnormal, and the injuries on his body are not serious, but after a few days of rest, he has almost healed.

Du Chongwei said that if he wants to marry Du Ruyue, he must make a meritorious service that is enough to make people deterrent, how can he give up this good opportunity to make meritorious contributions?

There were still more than two miles away from the south city gate, and I heard the faint sound of killing coming from the south city gate.

"Stop! Who are you? The south gate is heavy, and no trespassers will be killed!" a pawn shouted.

"It doesn't matter, let him come. Wang Chongyin came out of nowhere, and smiled at Li Fengyun: "You want to come to the front to grab some military merits, right? Yes, a good man should have a sword." Don't worry too much, the siege of the city is all newly surrendered annexes, and the real elite of the Yang thief has not yet been launched, and such an attack cannot help the south gate. I see that Yang Guangyuan is too disappointed in these attached troops, and wants to consume some of them by attacking the city. ”

Li Fengyun was stunned for a moment, and said curiously: "Why? Aren't they all in the same group? How could Yang Guangyuan do such a stupid thing?"

Wang Chongyin patted Li Fengyun on the shoulder and asked, "Do you think you can win a war by relying on a large number of people?"

Li Fengyun thought for a while and said, "It's always a good thing to have more people!"

"How can it be so simple? If you talk about the number of people, I'm afraid that the people of Dajin are only ten times that of the Khitan, why can't I beat the Khitan?" Wang Chongyin asked again.

"The Khitans are elite soldiers and horses, and they are cavalry, and they are fast, and the people of the Central Plains are just farmers, how can they fight against him?" Li Fengyun replied, he has gained a lot of knowledge in marching and fighting these days, and he still knows some basic knowledge.

"That's right!" Wang Chongyin took Li Fengyun towards the south gate, from time to time a stone the size of a human head flew over the high city wall, smashed into the houses next to the city wall, splashed a piece of broken tiles and rotten bricks, Wang Chongyin did not see it, this made Li Fengyun very admired, such a big stone, if it was smashed on the flesh and blood, even if he Li Fengyun, it was inevitable that the tendons would break and fracture, turning into a puddle of flesh and mud, but Wang Chongyin didn't seem to care at all.

"Go into battle to kill the enemy, you have already experienced it, you can be regarded as a veteran!" Wang Chongyin seemed to see Li Fengyun's thoughts, "Actually, behind the city wall, these thrown stones are not threatening, with you and I have a chance to avoid it, if it is on the city wall, it may be more dangerous, but as long as you pay attention, you can avoid it." The most troublesome thing is the scattered debris, which can be injured if you are not careful. If you go up to the city, be careful!"

Li Fengyun nodded, Wang Chongyin was teaching him the experience on the battlefield, although it was simple, it was very applicable.

"In fact, there are no longer many soldiers, but in the fine, in the world today, the most elite soldiers are none other than the Khitan iron cavalry. Wang Chongyin introduced.

"Could it be that the soldiers of the Central Plains are not as good as the Khitan iron cavalry?" Li Fengyun was a little unconvinced.

"Can't compare!" Wang Chongyin shook his head and said, "If it is a foot battle, maybe the elite soldiers of the Great Jin Dynasty who have been trained for a long time can still compete with it, but the Khitan soldiers all have horses, everyone is good at riding and shooting, and with horses, the combat power will be improved by several levels." The Khitans grew from meat, and their bodies were much stronger than those of the Chinese people, who ate grains. Therefore, without three or four times the number of troops, the Central Plains infantry could not compete with the Khitan iron cavalry. ”

Li Fengyun said unconvinced: "There are also cavalry in the Central Plains!"

"Can't compare, can't compare. Wang Chongyin explained, "The Khitan people have lived on horses since they were children, and hunting on horseback is not a problem, and with a little training, it is the best to ride well; the Central Plains are different, most of the soldiers are farmers, they have never ridden horses before, and they have no experience in cooperating with each other, so it takes a long time to get familiar with horses, and it takes considerable financial resources to maintain an elite cavalry.

The cavalry of the Central Plains, even if it is well-trained, generally requires two or three cavalry to defeat a Khitan iron cavalry.

This is also one of the reasons why Du Shuai didn't plan to ask you to bring the two thousand war horses, now that Zhenzhou City is besieged, it is already stretched to maintain two thousand elite horses and nearly four thousand war horses, where can I have the financial resources to support another two thousand war horses?

War horses are not so easy to serve, only feed some hay is not enough, to ensure the combat power of war horses, you must often feed some fine feed, such as grain, beans, bran and eggs. The cost of raising one elite cavalry is enough to raise five elite foot soldiers.

If a large number of cavalry are recruited, don't say that Du Shuai can't afford it, even if it is my Dajin, it will be difficult to support. ”

"Then how can the Khitan afford to raise so many elite cavalry?" Li Fengyun was puzzled and asked. He used to ride horses, and he generally didn't care much about feeding the horses, and some shops were handed over to Xiao Er to deal with, and if there was no shop, he let the horses gnaw some grass, no wonder his horses always got thinner and thinner the more they rode.

Wang Chongyin replied: "That's different, the Khitan war horses are all free-range, and they don't need to be served like this at all, and there is basically no cost." ”

Li Fengyun frowned and said, "The Central Plains can do the same!"

Wang Chongyin laughed, patted Li Fengyun on the shoulder, and said: "The Central Plains has a large population, and they make a living from farming.

The Khitan is different, the Khitan land is vast and sparsely populated, except for the sixteen states of Yanyun, the rest is basically a vast grassland, and there is no place to worry about raising horses, nor is there any worry about no good war horses. In fact, the war horses of the Central Plains are all from the grasslands of the west and north. Even if the Central Plains raises it, it can't raise good war horses. ”

"So it's still the Khitan method!" Li Fengyun thought for a while and said, "If it goes on like this, the people of the Central Plains have been raised to eat sheep, but the Khitan is a wolf that eats meat, no matter how many sheep eat grass, how can they be better than the wolf that eats meat?"
