Lu Chen gave the order and the border troops moved up and down.

What is the concept of 50,000 people doing one thing at the same time? Even if one person can only resist one bag of sand and soil, it is still 50,000 bags!

Moreover, soil is inexhaustible everywhere.

In just half a day, the height of the ground inside the Wuguan city wall almost covered the city gate. And at Lu Chen's request, all the sergeants worked together to shovel the earth, pack the bags, and prevent the soldiers from standing still.

It was slippery underfoot, and the coarse cloth sacks were filled with hard soil, not wet soil.

From this, Lu Chen, with a modern perspective, completely overturned the constraints of the ancient cold weapon battlefield framework.

When the ground height inside Wuguan reached a certain level, Lu Chen asked Zhao Chuan again to test the arrow. At this time, with Zhao Chuan's arm strength, the arrow could easily cross the Wuguan wall and fly outside the pass.

Next, Lu Chen ordered the troops to stop laying soil. He asked the soldiers on the Wuguan City Wall to gather on both sides, and then ordered Zhao Chuan's First Corps to take the lead in conducting the test.

"Strike the bow!"

"put!"

Under the command of Zhao Chuan, the soldiers of the First Corps fired thousands of arrows. They shot arrows from the field inside the city wall to the other side of the city wall. The arrows had to fly over the top of the wall.

The sharp rain of arrows was like a dark cloud. Although most of them turned into an arc and flew over the city wall, there were still a few soldiers who, due to lack of arm strength or poor grasp of the angle, shot arrows that were either

Hit the city wall, or just hit the defensive zone inside the city wall.

This kind of situation is obviously absolutely not allowed to happen on the real battlefield. Otherwise, some of the arrows fired from the pass will definitely hurt our brothers who are defending on the city wall.

Therefore, during the training after the bedding was completed, Zhao Chuan marked each soldier's arrow with his or her name.

A group of soldiers were responsible for collecting arrows that were shot outside the pass, while other arrows that either missed the city wall or were shot within the city wall were picked up and recovered by a group of soldiers, and then sent to the training ground.

After the thousands of arrows scattered at the foot of the city wall or inside the wall were recovered, Zhao Chuan picked up one of them, looked at the name on the arrow shaft, and reprimanded loudly:

"Liu Dalong! Didn't you eat at noon? Do you know! Just now, if we were on the battlefield! Your arrow, not only did not kill the enemy, but because of your mistake, it is very likely to kill your own comrades.

Brother! Do you understand!?"

Then, under this layer of screening, excluding the 3,000 cavalry of the Wuyue Division, more than 40,000 soldiers were divided into two parts, one part of which was a full 30,000. These soldiers were all strong and strong.

The movements of the arrows on the bows were the same, and the angles of raising them diagonally into the air were also the same. All the arrows shot could cross the city wall and fall to the plain outside the pass.

The frontier army's armament storage now has more than 200,000 arrows. After the training of the 30,000 soldiers is completed, Lu Chen will allocate 150,000 arrows to the 30,000 soldiers.

In other words, he planned to use 30,000 soldiers as a volley to conduct five large-scale arrow formations!

The other nearly 20,000 soldiers were all assigned to the city wall.

The city wall of Wuguan can accommodate up to about five thousand soldiers. In other words, the other people are all ready to defend the city wall to the death to prevent the barbarians from climbing up. Once a soldier is sacrificed on the wall, the people waiting at the stairs will

Soldiers will immediately fill the vacant positions.

Later, Lu Chen made a certain analysis of the area outside the customs covered by the 30,000-soldier arrow formation, and then decided to personally direct the battle!

After everything was arranged, a few days later, the Tanma sent out from the front suddenly sent back an urgent report, saying that the barbarian army had been assembled and was marching towards Wuguan.

When Lu Chen asked the scout how many people there were, the scout stammered: "Sir, there are too many barbarians. There are so many people that you can't even see the edge at a glance. The villain... the villain is really immeasurable..."

This can't be blamed on him. Although the border town has been fighting against the barbarians all year round, it has always been a small fight. There has never been a real war. Tanma has never seen a battle of 200,000 troops. He estimated in his heart

At least there were hundreds of thousands of people, but he didn't dare to say this.

After sending off the scouting horses, Lu Chen immediately summoned all the generals in the army to discuss the troops.

After everyone rushed to the Chinese army's tent in a hurry, Lu Chen stood at the commander's desk, looked around, and said straight to the point: "Just now, Tanma reported that the barbarian army has approached Wuguan, and its strength is so large that Tanma said

Since it is boundless, it must be more than 100,000. Although the generals have been fighting on the battlefield for many years, I am afraid that they have rarely seen such a battle."

After finishing speaking, he didn't wait for everyone to answer, and continued: "What I want to say is that as a general, every word and deed of you will affect the mood of the soldiers below. Therefore, no matter how many barbarian troops there are,

, even if it is five hundred thousand or one million, even if we are defeated, you must not have fear in your hearts, which will destabilize the morale of the army."

"Please rest assured, sir! Even if we die on the battlefield, we will never take a step back!" Upon hearing this, all the generals returned in shock.

Lu Chen nodded with satisfaction. Before the war, the first thing he had to do was to stabilize the generals in the army.

You must know that the lowest level of the people in the tent is also the commander of a thousand soldiers, and the position of the commander is extremely important on the battlefield.

If someone shows fear, it can be said to be fatal to the soldiers below.

Now, seeing that everyone looked brave and unafraid of death, Lu Chen didn't say anything more, but turned to look at Xiao Wang and asked: "General Xiao, do we still have the same kind of troops as before in our army's reserves?"

Broken arrow?"

"Broken arrows?" Everyone looked puzzled when they heard this. This battle has been very clear. It is undoubtedly going to be a fierce battle with the barbarians. What's the use of broken arrows now?

?

Xiao Wang said with the same puzzlement: "After our army used the arrogant soldier strategy in the last battle at Hulukou, most of the previous armaments have been destroyed, and there is not much left. Sir, I want old arrows."

What’s the use?”

In his opinion, in this battle of Wuguan, our side can only defend the city wall and fight bloody battles with the barbarians. There is no opportunism at all. Using old weapons to confuse the enemy will no longer have any effect, and

It is impossible for our side to give in to Wuguan easily this time. Once Wuguan is lost, it means that the barbarians will march straight in and wreak havoc on the entire Pingyang County!

Lu Chen smiled slightly and said: "Last time, General Xiao used the illusion that our army's ordnance was backward to make the enemy feel contemptuous. This time, I also want to take advantage of this, but it is not a arrogant strategy, but
Chapter completed!
