When the little brother from Xianbei heard Yuan Gaisuwen's words, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Damn it, I dreamed back to when Goguryeo was still there, did I meet the king?
"Yes...yes, Your Majesty..."
Yuan Gaisuwen just whispered an order, but his invisible aura made the Xianbei subordinates beside him think that he was back in Mobei... that familiar place.
But since the boss said so, the younger brother was so nervous that he quickly followed the instructions.
Because the boss seemed to have some of the heroic spirit of the Xianbei people, although they didn't know what was going on, the Xianbei people who came with Yuan Gaisuwen felt a little more at ease.
only……
The younger brothers are relieved, but Yun Gaesubun's heart is full of warning signs.
There is something wrong with Tang Jun!
A few simple words suddenly appeared in Yeon Gaesumun's mind.
As this thought appeared, Yeon Gaesumun observed the Tang army that had gathered today more carefully.
Seeing this, Yeon Gaesumun felt even more surprised.
Originally just now...
According to my analysis of the origins of the two parties in this martial arts meeting, the captain from Chang'an must be more powerful.
But looking at the behavior of these Tang troops on the ship at this moment, it makes people feel... It seems that Chai Shao's troops are more sophisticated and silent...
He also has that kind of ruthless temperament that doesn’t say a word.
this……
This made Yeon Gaesumun couldn't help but feel confused, "Oh my god, something is wrong."
Could it be that Tang Jun had some big moves that he didn’t notice, didn’t discover, didn’t pay attention to? It’s impossible...
The brain started thinking hard again.
This time, after thinking about it... Yeon Gaesumun gradually felt that he knew very little about the navy, ships and navy, and could not tell which of the two Tang armies was more powerful.
As soon as this conclusion appeared in my mind, my whole feeling of "No, I can't mess around today" became even stronger.
Obviously I can't see any of the princes appearing in it, but I just can't feel what the problem is!
But soon, it was too late to think more...
In other words, after thinking more and harder, apart from wasting time, no effective information was obtained, and the Tang Army's martial arts competition has officially begun.
Yeon Gae So-moon's mood was complicated, and there was still a hint of heaviness...but he could only read it first before talking about it.
In any case, today we still have to see if there are any flaws in the Tang army performing martial arts, or if there are any careless moments that can be exploited. As long as you catch the opportunity, then... great things can still be accomplished.
But as the battle begins...
Although Yeon Gaesomun was filled with suspense and worry, as well as the huge mental pressure caused by the question of "should we take action?", the people on the side were just watching the excitement. As the soldiers from the two sides began to fight, they were already excited and wantonly
Make a noise.
The two fleets moored in the harbor began to move slowly, and the soldiers also took out their crossbows and began to attack and defend.
Yeon Gaesumun is quite familiar with the offense and defense of crossbows, so he observes the most carefully at this time.
Because the moment when I expected "Tang Jun will be careless and relaxed" will probably be a while longer, I feel a little more relaxed, and my observations will naturally become more detailed.
but……
This time, following Yeon Gaesumun's observation, he once again discovered a detail that shocked him extremely.
——The Tang army from Chang'an was on board the ship. Their formation was neat and orderly, and their demeanor was as majestic as a mountain. This was not beyond my expectation.
But the navy under Chai Shao on the other side is truly incredible.
On the opposite side of the Chang'an Forbidden Army, the soldiers were leaning on the side of the ship, using the side of the ship as a cover, kneeling down to shoot, using their extremely well-trained physical strength to pour out arrows like crazy.
But the Tang army on Chai Shaozhi's ship was outrageous. They did not simply arrange the Forbidden Army into a row on the side of the ship to shoot directly, but used two rows of Forbidden Army to lean against the side of the ship!
The operation method of these two rows of forbidden troops is even more unique. It is not that the latter row is sent as a reserve force to the previous row, but two rows...
To be inaccurate, there is actually only one row, but it is not divided into individual soldiers, but into small units of "two people". Based on such small units, a row is formed.
People lean on the side of the boat.
In each group, one person in the front shoots and the other person in the back draws the bow.
After the person in front shoots, the person behind him also finishes drawing the bow, and immediately turns back to back with the person in front to change positions. The person behind him pushes to the front for a new shot, while the person behind him rests for about one to three breaths.
, then immediately draw the bow and circle back-to-back with Pao Ze in front, readjust the position and shoot!
It is equivalent to each shooter having a "reserve army". After each shot, the reserve army will conduct the next shot, and after the next shot, he will conduct a new shot.
And the benefits of shooting like this...
"Benefits" are analyzed outside the battlefield and are meaningless on the battlefield. There are only direct battle damage results on the battlefield.
And the result of the battle damage is...
Although the Tang army in today's martial arts competition used high-power standard crossbows, the arrows were all removed and replaced with sandbags wrapped in cloth to avoid casualties - martial arts is a martial arts exercise after all, not
Civil war. Just to confirm the victory or defeat, the "sandbag arrows" of both sides were coated with dye obtained from the dyeing workshop and hit on the "enemy" to calculate the killing effect.
The intuitive result of the battle damage is that although the Tang army coming from Chang'an was extremely neat and well-organized, and their temperament was serious and professional, but... they only fired one round of arrows, while the Imperial Guard soldiers under Chai Shao on the opposite side had already fired at least three rounds.
Above arrows!
and……
As time went on, a strange trend emerged on the field:
——The captains and soldiers in the "Martial Arts Academy Team" from Chang'an, although each one is obviously taller and stronger than Chai Shao's soldiers, they are obviously the super elites of the carefully selected Forbidden Army. However,
Gradually……
Chang'an's imperial army, as time went on, their physical strength was gradually consumed, and the density and intensity of the arrow rain gradually became sparse, but on the other side.
The naval archers under Chai Shao's command are undiminished in their shooting speed.
Even at the end, the arrow density of the "Lecturer's Martial Arts Academy Team" on the left became only half of what it was at the beginning, while the arrow density on the other side remained stable and unchanged, always dense and crazy, always like locusts passing by.
Usually...this weird phenomenon occurs.
The people present in Hangzhou Port were gradually shocked and opened their mouths in shock...
During the Tang Dynasty, the people were more martial.
From the emperor down to the common people, there is no one who is not proficient in the art of swords, riding, and shooting.
In addition, the maritime merchants here in Hangzhou are basically half merchants and half bandits, and everyone knows how to ride and shoot, so everyone soon saw the horror...
