Late Tang

Knowing that you can't do it, you will do it, even though there are thousands of people, I will go!

At the last moment, Meng Yang showed the demeanor of a general, fighting to the death!

With the sound of dull footsteps, Lin Wei felt that the ground of the pier seemed to be shaking slightly.The black enemy group is approaching rapidly, like a stormy wave, like a stormy wave.It's like the rising tide of sea water, or like a great river bursting its embankment.The swarming Daxie soldiers are getting closer and clearer.The front of the black crows, the enemy generals rushing to the front, and a few flags flying high behind them.The first one is the military flag of Daxie Village, then the military flag of Heishanbao, followed by a flag with seal characters, then a general flag with Meng characters, and an official banner at the back, which reads Meng Meng, the deputy town general of Heishanbao in Daxie Village.

"Take a firm stand!" Lin Wei rode his horse and ran with his sword in front of the formation.

Standing in the front row, Zhang Chengzong, the head of the Qibingdu, shouted: "First row, squat down!" The standard equipment of the Qibingdu soldiers is an iron helmet, a set of iron armor, and a red shirt.The weapon is a four-foot-high square tiger-head iron shield, an eight-foot spear, a horizontal knife, a longbow that is 100% equipped in Shamen Town, and thirty arrows.However, under normal circumstances, the most important combat task of the Raiders is to stabilize their own array and resist the enemy's impact.

The soldiers in the first row squatted halfway behind the long shield, basically hiding their entire body behind the shield, and then inserted the tail end of the spear obliquely into the ground, and the spearhead was obliquely in the air.The surprise soldiers in the first row mainly held the shields, and then inserted the spears in their hands into the ground, acting obliquely as the repelling horses in front of the formation, forming a forest of spears. As for the battle, Li Jing didn't need them to fight. brethren will protect them.

The surprise soldiers behind also put their shields on the ground, but they stood up, their long shields protected their half bodies, and then put the spears in their hands on the shoulders or shields of the soldiers in the first row.

Zhang Chengzong's face was flushed, full of enthusiasm before the battle. He shouted to the soldiers nearby and behind, "For the sake of Shamen Town and for the glory of the soldiers, fight bravely!" Wang Dong squatted behind the shield and loudly added He said, "For the house in the new city, for the wife and children, I will fight!"

"For the wife and children, for the house, fight!" The soldiers of the first team shouted loudly along with the team leader, and the brothers in the other cities felt a little funny when they heard it, but they were right when they thought about it. Isn't it for the sake of wives and children, parents, brothers and sisters, for a better life?As a result, countless people shouted this slogan one after another, shaking the pier.

The sound covered up Li Jing's beating drum for a while, and Li Jing turned his head to look at the battlefield, and couldn't help being amused. Although this slogan is a little simple, it is quite real, and it can better motivate these majority to truly fight for the first time. Soldiers on the battlefield.

Looking at the fearless Da Xie Bing, Li Jing couldn't help sighing. While beating the drums, he said loudly to Li Wei, the scout battalion next to him: "That Meng Yang is a good guy. Although he is a little loyal to Feng Zhang, he may It is admirable to continue to fight resolutely at this time. Go there yourself and tell Lin Wei and them that if possible, I hope to capture this person alive."

The reconnaissance capital has now become a reconnaissance battalion, and there are two reconnaissance capitals and special warfare capitals. Although there are only two capitals, they are still one battalion, and he has officially become the tenth general of the battalion.Officially promoted to the core senior general of Shamen Town, and also has the identity of Li Jing's cousin, the future is the most optimistic for everyone.He used to be willful and married. Recently, the matchmaker in Shamen Town who wanted to propose marriage for him almost broke his threshold.

"My brothers in the Special Operations Capital directly capture this ignorant kid. This kind of guy is simply unrepentant. Feng Zhang is neither his father nor the emperor's father. Why should he be so loyal?" Li Wei said to Meng Yang didn't like it a little. He was the one who inquired about Meng Yang's identity just now to report to Li Jing.

"The literati are not greedy for money, and the warriors are not afraid of death. How can there be unrest in my Huaxia Shenzhou?" Li Jing shook his head. What is lacking in today's world is this kind of single-minded person. "There are too few people like Meng Yang. If possible, I still hope to persuade this person to surrender and recruit him for my own use."

"I hope he understands current affairs." Li Wei nodded, turned and left.

On the pier, in front of the left wing, Lin Wei galloped past the battle again and shouted orders.

The soldiers repeated the movements they had trained thousands of times in accordance with the usual training, firmly nailing their feet to the ground and holding their weapons tightly in their hands.About 1000% of the 1000 people in the left chamber were recruited after the one-eyed dragon attack and expanded the army. Many of them have been in the army for less than a month, and have not even experienced a real battle.In Li Jing's words, anyone who has not seen blood is not a real soldier, so more than half of the [-] people in front of him are not real soldiers.Only after passing this test can they be considered qualified soldiers.

The hearts of these recruits were beating violently, and they looked pale as they watched the enemy soldiers approaching with ferocious faces.Some people even couldn't help shaking their teeth, their hands and feet were cold and numb, their bodies were limp and weak, and they were sweating profusely.If it weren't for the first-class officers of each team to stand at the forefront, it is estimated that some people would turn around and leave.

In this battle, Li Jing didn't let Li Xigou's gendarmes supervise the battle. Maybe it was to show his trust in the war barracks, or maybe he wanted to give the people of Shamen Town a good impression of the gendarmes.

Meng Yang led the army to rush forward with a desperate heart, the flag fluttered like the sea, and the swords and guns stood erect like a forest.

The Daxie soldiers who went to their deaths were full of enthusiasm, killing one to earn money, and killing two to earn a double. Thousands of surges are coming!

The strong wind blew away the smoke floating on the pier, and the enemy army finally rushed into the place where the bow and crossbow general Li Yuan shot the arrow with all his strength.The arrow was a hundred steps away from the front of the formation, and now Meng Yang and the others had rushed into the range of the crossbowmen.

Getting closer, getting closer.

One hundred steps, eighty steps, sixty steps.

Every twenty steps, Li Yuan had previously shot an arrow into the ground to mark it. There were five arrows within a hundred steps, and now Da Xie Bing had rushed into the boundary of the third arrow.

"Let go!" Li Yuan, who was once a general under the command of Li Jing, the founding commander of the country, was able to ride and shoot, and Li Yuan, who knew a little about the art of war, shouted loudly, and finally gave the order to shoot.His family originally lived in Qingzhou, and their family fortune has long been in decline, but he himself is also a knight-errant and willful person. He met Li Wei in the state school in Qingzhou and became a confidant.Li Wei was later expelled from state school, and then joined Li Jing's army. He felt good, so he believed in Li Jing's recommendation, and immediately asked him to write a letter to recruit him when he heard about such a person.After arriving in Shamen Town, Li Jing tested him personally. After he was indeed a tiger general, not only was he proficient in combat skills on horseback, but he was also very familiar with Li Weigong's art of war. He has good archery skills, and he competed with Li Jing, and the two were evenly matched.Li Jing made an exception and promoted him, directly appointing him as the head of the bow and crossbow general of Zuo Sandu in the left wing.

With a calm face, Li Yuan waved his hand, and the two teams of 200 crossbowmen in Zuo Sandu immediately fired arrows one after another.

45-degree projectile, although this shooting method has a low degree of preparation, as long as the number of archers reaches a certain number, it can have the effect of covering arrows.This 45-degree projectile shooting method, the arrow is from top to bottom, and it will do more damage to soldiers holding shields and armor who are resisting frontally than flat shooting.

Bow and Crossbow's attack was divided into two groups, one team and one group.When the first team shoots, the second team prepares. After the first team shoots, the second team immediately follows.This style of play fully guarantees the non-stop long-range shooting in front of the formation, which can play a very good role in interference and killing.

The whistling hundred arrows flew up to the sky for more than ten feet, and then fell down with a whistling sound. The feathered arrows weighing five coins fell from a height of ten feet, and the speed was even faster than when they were shot flat.

"Raise the shield!" Meng Yang shouted while running, and took the lead in raising the shield in his hand.This time, most of the arrows were successfully blocked. Only a few unlucky guys got arrows in their necks, some people got arrows in their hands, and a few of them were hit by arrows falling from their insteps, and they rolled on the ground for a while. , screaming again and again.

The first burst of arrow rain had just fallen, and the second burst came again, so Xie Bing had no choice but to raise his shield again.However, after repeating this several times, the momentum of their charge was forced to slow down a lot.

A loud shout sounded suddenly, resounding through the pier, "Everyone who stands in the way is dead, there is no retreat!" Daxie's soldiers finally burst into another roar after approaching within forty steps: "Kill!" Regardless of the bow and arrow on his head, he just rushed forward with a spear and a horizontal knife.

When Meng Yang led the charge, after entering a distance of [-] steps, a large part of about [-] Daxie soldiers also began to stop, holding bows and shooting arrows into the left side of the formation, suppressing the crossbowmen in Shamen Town , supporting and covering the charge of Meng Yang and others.

Without any suspense, the crowd led by Meng Yang slammed into the shield, wall and spear forest of the Raiders.

It's a pity that Meng Yang underestimated Li Jing's soldiers too much.Although many of these soldiers have only been trained for more than a month, this training method is completely different from that of ordinary Tang troops.Coupled with Li Jingshe's high capital, the soldiers are well-nourished and generally much stronger.Fighting alone, they are definitely not as good as the veterans of Daxie, but the front formed by the excellent and sturdy square shield and sharp spears like this is extremely strong.Meng Yang's desperate impact was like a wave hitting the embankment. Although it was extremely turbulent, after the waves fell, the embankment was still strong.

"Shot! Stab!" Zhang Chengzong shouted.

Meng Yang's charge was completely restrained by the strange soldiers. After losing the momentum of the charge, the momentum of Da Xie Bing suddenly let out.

Zhang Chengzong did not miss this opportunity and shouted out the gun at the right time.

Rows of eight-foot spears are like hundreds of poisonous snakes coming out of their holes, swift and vigorous.The sound of puff puff kept ringing, and in an instant, more than a dozen big Xie soldiers were stabbed by the spears behind the shield wall.Most of these Daxie soldiers are wearing leather armor, only a few are wearing iron armor, but no matter how strong the iron armor is, if they are stabbed by spears at close range, the special triangular spear head made by Daxie Village will break the armor the most. There was almost no suspense when the sharp three-edged spear pointed against the iron armor, and the iron armor was also unstoppable, let alone the leather armor.

The bright red blood flowed out from the wound, which is another special effect of the three-edged spearhead besides piercing the armor, bloodletting.The special three-edged spear head of Daxie Village has excellent attack effects of armor-piercing and bloodletting.However, this kind of triangular lance also had extremely high requirements for the steel of the spearhead. The steel used to make the spearhead was not good at all, and would break after a few times of use, and the sharpness and hardness were not enough.Li Jing convened a group of craftsmen including Wang Lao blacksmith, and finally found that the temperature during steelmaking could not rise, so the steel produced was not good.Moreover, some of the forging processes also have some problems. To make triangular thorns, not only high-quality iron ore is required, but also higher temperature steel furnaces and better forging processes are required.In the end, Li Jing asked the craftsmen to change the charcoal-burning furnace used by the craftsmen to use coal to extract coke first, and then use the coke to burn the furnace. A simple but very good stove was taught to Blacksmith Wang, and he bought a batch of high-quality iron ore to change the spears of the Qibing Battalion in the Zhanbing Camp into three-edged thorn-pointed guns.As for the other spears, no changes have been made for the time being. Although the three-edged spear is sharper than ordinary spears, the cost has also increased by more than three times. Even Li Jing, who likes to use the best everywhere, is also extravagant. rise.

"prick!"

"prick!"

"prick!"

The shield is like an iron wall, and the gun is like a dragon!

Meng Yang stood in front of the station with a big iron gun in despair and smashed it hard. Although he successfully smashed [-]% of the iron shield and smashed the head of a soldier behind the shield, the shield wall Immediately after that, two more Salmonella town soldiers rushed in to block the shield wall.If you attack again, the effect will not be so good.Countless long thorns aimed at him specifically, causing him to block from left to right, frantic.Even more angrily, cold arrows were shot from the side from time to time.

After killing for a while, he suddenly found that there were fewer and fewer people around him. He hurriedly looked around and saw that countless corpses of his own brothers had fallen in front of the shield wall. .

Gritting his teeth, he knew that it would be impossible to break through the shield wall and rush into the enemy's formation.

"Retreat!" Meng Yang roared, since he couldn't get in, he should retreat and let the enemy chase him out.The order was spread over and over again, and the Daxie soldiers began to retreat.However, although they retreated, they retreated in a very organized manner. The front formation changed to the back formation, and the rear formation changed to the front formation, with archers covering them.

Seeing the enemy retreat, Lin Wei yelled, "Let's go, the Mo Dao soldiers will fight, and the Dang Dang soldiers will cover!"

Zhang Chengzong ordered the strange soldiers to open the shield wall, and immediately the Mo Dao who had been waiting impatiently all held the three Zhang Mo Dao in Touqiu Shengong, and came out first, followed by the two hundred Mo Dao hands, waving a full three Zhang long Mo Dao The Mo Dao, like a sharp wall of swords, is advancing.
