The situation where the Turkic cavalry used to be invincible when charging was completely broken because of Jiang Lei's idea.
The Turks, who were still able to fight back in the face of the rain of arrows, suffered such heavy losses when charging infantry for the first time.
Yunyang held up the telescope and grinned from ear to ear: "Hey, damn, this Jiang Lei is really damn good!"
"The sword and shield soldiers were ordered to split into three formations. The archers pushed the rockets to the front army's position and beat these bastards hard!"
"Got the order!"
The rocket car with thunderbolts tied to the arrows and inlaid with eighteen arrows was quickly carried by the archers to the front army position and placed there.
More than a dozen torches were lit, the fuses of the rockets were ignited, and the arrow carrier Lei Zhenzi fired towards the densely populated area of the Turkic forward.
Eighteen arrows were fired at the Turkic soldiers and horses one after another. Along with the sound of artillery, they exploded under the hooves of the Turkic horses, once again taking a wave of enemy lives.
In the blink of an eye, the crossbows on more than a dozen rocket vehicles were fired completely.
After he succeeded, Yunyang was in the same mood as Jiang Lei, and he couldn't hold back his excitement. : :
In the past few days, the Turks had launched harassment charges that made the dragon infantry tireless. Finally, they were able to defeat the arrogance of the Turks in the complicated terrain of the shallow river beach. Yunyang naturally did not want to give up such a hard-won opportunity easily.
"Get on the rocket car, continue to get on the rocket car, you must let these bastards have a good drink!"
The general looked hesitantly at Yunyang's excited expression: "Commander, we only have twenty-three rocket cars left, and there are only more than three hundred thunder bombs in total. If we try again, they will basically be used up.
.”
Yunyang's face froze, and he waved the command flag in his hand again: "The archers assisted the artillery fire to suppress the Turks' speed, and the sword and shield soldiers covered the spearmen and halberdiers to cover up the Turks' cavalry!"
"Got the order!"
Nangong Ye looked at Yunyang's fearless expression and sighed helplessly.
"Commander, please understand the quartermaster's difficulties. This time, Commander Liu asked two guards to rush to Yunzhou for hundreds of miles to come to the rescue. In order to prevent excessive supplies from affecting the speed, they can only carry a small number of firearms in batches!"
"In a confrontation involving hundreds of thousands of people, those firearms would be gone after just a few uses."
"In particular, we have to understand Liu Shuai's difficulties. Most of the troops in the six cities of Northern Xinjiang and the six guards of the New Army are now concentrated in our third city in the West."
"The pressure they face from the Jin army is greater than ours."
"It's not like you don't understand him. As long as he can get the brothers to bring more, he will definitely bring more. I'm afraid that the current situation in Yingzhou and Jeju is also extremely bad!"
Yunyang nodded silently: "Of course I understand. The main reason is that I finally took advantage of it and couldn't kill more enemy troops. I feel it is a pity."
"As long as the commander understands, let's continue to command the brothers to resist the Turks' attack!"
"The Turks are not fools. The forward soldiers suffered such heavy casualties. They will definitely not continue charging unchanged. We must observe their strategies clearly and respond to their changes in offense and defense in a timely manner."
"Okay, it's still the old rules. I will command the infantry and coordinate the cavalry of General Zhou and General Chu. I will leave it to you, Nangong Shuai!"
"Junior understands, I will go there first."
In the Jin Kingdom's tent, Huyan Yunyao looked at the commander kneeling in front of her, shaking like chaff.
"More than half of the five thousand warriors were lost in a single charge before a close encounter. Chida, you have disappointed me. We have not suffered such a heavy loss since the dragon's troops left the city. What crime do you deserve?"
"The Great Khan forgives me, and the Great Khan spares my life. It's not that I was in a bad position in leading the troops. It's just that Dalong's artillery was so powerful that the brothers couldn't guard against it. After the sound of the cannon exploded, I led the brothers to avoid Dalong's afterthoughts as usual, but
The cannonballs this time were not the big, round ones, but the cannonballs that were so small that they couldn’t even be seen.”
"Brothers fell off the horse like leaves. We don't know what happened! Please tell me clearly, I have never lied."
Huyan Yunyao looked at Chi Da quietly. Although his face was extremely panicked, his eyes were looking at her without any evasion. Huyan Yunyao knew that Chi Da was not lying.
"You are allowed to perform meritorious service. Get up first and rectify the soldiers of your forward battalion. Don't let them disrupt the morale of the army!"
"Yes, yes, thank the Great Khan for sparing my life."
After Chida left, Huyanjunyao'e looked at Huyanyu with a slight frown.
"In just half a day, we can actually lose thousands of soldiers and horses. Why is Dalong using such powerful artillery now? Is it to confuse us, show the enemy's weakness, and catch us by surprise at the right time?"
Hu Yanyu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I don't rule out this possibility, but listening to Chi Da's detailed answer just now, these weapons are actually not very lethal. The real reason that caused heavy losses to the tribesmen was because they fell.
War horse."
"You also know how fast a war horse can run. If a war horse falls down, it will break arms and legs at least. If the following troops are too late to stop the speed, our troops will die under the hooves of their own horses.
The number of people under the dragon’s cannon.”
"Let's wait for the spectator's answer and see what kind of powerful weapon this artillery is."
Huyan Yunyao nodded silently: "Lian Lu, please send an order to the forward soldiers. The gap left by the dragon infantry is a technique to lure the enemy. Please let the soldiers in the forward battalion not underestimate the enemy, let alone charge into the gap they expose."
"For the next attack, look for a place where the defense of the Great Dragon Soldier Formation is not light or heavy. There may not be any opportunities to take advantage of it."
"With the order, I will go immediately."
Huyan Yunyao sighed with a disappointed look on her face, looking at the bodyguards who were still wearing leather and cloth armor outside the tent.
"When will we Turks be like the Great Dragon and the Jin Kingdom, with well-equipped weapons and unparalleled firearms? Now I am more and more aware of the shortcomings of us Turks."
"It's a pity that our grasslands are not capable of developing skilled craftsmen to smelt sophisticated weapons like the big dragons."
"Not to mention regional restrictions, plus we are not good at farming and have no fixed place to live. If we want to be like Dalong, we still have a long way to go!"
"Although the cavalry is powerful, it has to avoid the sharp edge when faced with a powerful weapon like artillery. This sentence was perfectly reflected when Ben Khan borrowed artillery from his senior brother to attack the Royal Court of Spies.
come out!"
Hu Yanyu gave a helpless smile: "Wait, when you rule the world, everything you want will come true."
"It has been hundreds of years since the Xiongnu, Qiang, and Hu came to our Turkic royal court. You are the first person from a grassland tribe to have the hope of conquering the Central Plains Dynasty."
"I hope that the Wolf God will bless us and the ancestors of the Huyan family will bless us to be able to lay the foundation for a prosperous dynasty."
"Withdraw the troops, I will reorganize the offensive deployment!"
"Got the order!"
At noon the next day, Huyan Yunyao was giving instructions to a group of generals on how to deal with this new and terrifying artillery, when the guards hurried in.
"Report! Report to the Great Khan, the eagle shooters who investigated the ancient silk road sent a falcon message. An endless line of cavalry appeared on the ancient silk road more than 240 miles west of Ganzhou, rushing toward the east with flags fluttering.
, a rough estimate is no less than 350,000 cavalry!"
"It's really impossible to find out the specific number of people."
Huyan Yunyao looked at the guards who ran into the tent, narrowed her eyes and glanced at Yan Yu, who was drinking tea at the side.
Hu Yanyu also stood up from the chair and looked at Hu Yanjunyao's cautious look with doubtful eyes.
"Reinforcements are really coming from the Western Region!"
"Oh! Yes, reinforcements are coming. They will arrive in Ganzhou within two days if they survive. They will surely be able to encircle Dalong's troops within three days."
"No less than 350,000 cavalry, senior brother is really a big deal!"
"what to do?"
"Continue to harass Dalong's soldiers and horses, and withdraw the day after tomorrow and rush to Yingzhou and Jeju to join forces with the Jin Kingdom!"
"clear!"
In front of the Dalong Army formation, Nangong Ye and Yunyang looked at the golden eagles in their hands with excited expressions, and the depressed expressions on their faces disappeared.
"420,000, 420,000 reinforcements, that's really a big deal, our dragon's danger can be solved!"
"Quickly, send a message to Liu Shuai and Jeju Wan Mingliang, telling them to hold on. Within seven days, we will bring an army to support them!"
"In addition, quickly inform the officers and soldiers of the three armies that reinforcements will arrive the day after tomorrow to boost morale."
