Su Hong said: "Okay! Then you are busy making the crossbows first, and I will help you appeal to Master Di of the Dali Academy.

  Don't worry, Master Di is upright and unselfish, as long as he finds out that you are indeed wronged, let alone a second-rank official, even a first-rank official will be pulled down!"

  "General Xie Su!"

  With Su Hong's promise, Lu Ming was completely relieved and put all his energy into the manufacture of the new type of crossbow.

  With the efforts of all the craftsmen and the unlimited supply of resources from the imperial court, the first batch of [-] crossbows were quickly produced from the workshop of the Weapons Supervisor, and they were transported to the front line non-stop.

  In the northern camp, Yan Ge and several generals gathered around the iron car in front of them to watch, all of them were full of praise.

  Li Jing said: "Your Majesty, with this kind of crossbow, it will surely make Rouran's group of... the mighty Montenegrin horses go back and forth!"

  Yan Ge nodded and said: "I named this ballista - the Fuyuan Giant Crossbow, which means that the enemy is in awe, and I hope it can protect our logistics line!"

  On the grassland, a Black Mountain riding and archery team of several hundred people is marching.

  The front explorer reports: "Leader, we found Wei Jun's grain transport team ahead!"

  The person who looked like the leader asked: "You can see that kind of... difficult light cavalry patrolling around"

  "No!"

  The scout shook his head, "Leader, it's been two days, and you can't see that kind of root within a hundred miles... light cavalry, presumably they're all heading to the front!"

  "Hahaha!"

  The head of Rouran laughed, "Wei Jun can't stand it anymore! It's also thanks to them that they can use this kind of elite light cavalry to protect the logistics line!"

  "It's just that without their protection, those weak soldiers of the grain transport team are just waiting to accept the wrath of Montenegro's cavalry shooting!"

  The leader gave an order, and hundreds of black mountain horsemen rushed towards the Wei army, but this time, what awaited them was a tragic ending.

  When the Wei army's grain transport team saw the enemy's troops and horses, they immediately.

  Shouting out the defensive formation.

  They first put on heavy full-body armor, grabbed special heavy steel guns that could be held with two hands, and posed fully armed to face the attacking direction of the Montenegrin cavalry archers.

  This is the imperial court's equipping the grain transport team with Fuyuan's other partner arms, the heavy spearmen! The so-called heavy spearmen, as the name suggests, means that the whole body's defense is as strong as that of heavy infantry, and the weapon is also a heavy spear that cannot be shaken by thousands of troops.

  This kind of heavy spearman has almost no mobility in actual combat, and it is difficult to come in handy, but it works wonders in the case of passive defense waiting for the enemy to attack.

  The heavy spearmen stood on the periphery, the huge spear head was daunting, and any horse and shot would only result in the death of the horse.

  Their long spears effectively made the advance route of the Montenegrin cavalry and archery. The Rouran people had to avoid the defensive range of the heavy spearmen, and instead rushed from a weak area, or stood at a better place to shoot arrows, which gave the central area of ​​the grain transport team The Fuyuan Giant Crossbow provides precious time.

  Finally, the five Fuyuan giant crossbows in the center of the grain transport team were loaded with arrows, and a dozen or twenty soldiers were surrounded by each crossbow, and the five ballistas required hundreds of soldiers to operate.

  The grain transport officer ordered the soldiers to point the arrows of the ballista at the enemy, and shouted excitedly: "Brothers, let them see the mighty power of the Fuyuan crossbow!"

  "boom!"

  "boom!"

  "boom!"

  Amid the roars of the soldiers of the Wei army, each ballista seemed to be shaking like the earth and the mountains. The cavalry archers in front didn't know what was going on.

  But in the next second, a man-high crossbow bolt slammed into them like a meteor fell to the ground.

  The group of mounted archers watched helplessly as the held arrows flew towards them, and they didn't even have room to dodge, so a huge hole was pierced through their bodies by the giant crossbow arrows.

  No, maybe it can't be called a big hole, the power of Fuyuan's giant crossbow is too strong, the first person to encounter the giant crossbow, almost his body will be broken in two.

  And after piercing through a person, the power of this crossbow is not diminished, and it continues to run straight into the distance. All obstacles on its way will be torn to pieces, and the sky will dance with blood! The first launch of the five giant crossbows, It took the lives of dozens of Rouran riding archers.

  "Scatter, disperse!"

  The leader of Rouran roared wildly, and the horse archers spread out after hearing the words, trying to use the space to offset the penetrating power of the bed crossbow.

  However, the tactics of the bed crossbow have long been well researched by the military aircraft department. The soldiers of the grain transport team were not in a hurry when they saw this, and surrounded the city with five bed crossbows, covering every direction. Heavy pikemen surrounded.

  As long as the Rouran cavalry archers dare to approach, the terrifying heavy spear will stab them on their backs, and if they are scattered around, the Fuyuan giant crossbow can only shoot one or two at a time, but it will only be a living target if it continues. Sooner or later, they will all be shot to death by the Wei army one by one.

  The leader of Rouran was helpless and could only issue an order to retreat.

  "I want to go, but there is no way!"

  The grain transport officer waved his hand, and Fuyuan's giant crossbow was replaced with a relatively light arrow. Although the power was not as strong as before, the range was farther.

  The Montenegrin cavalry archers sadly found that their proud mobility was nothing in the face of the super long range of the Fuyuan Giant Crossbow.

  They desperately pushed the warhorse under their crotch, but no matter how they ran, they couldn't escape the end of the arrow.

  In the end, of the hundreds of attacking Montenegrin cavalry archers, less than thirty were able to leave alive! The appearance of the Fuyuan Giant Crossbow completely changed the strategic passivity of the Wei army.

  Rouran no longer dared to use the Black Mountain cavalry to surprise the Wei army's grain transport team, otherwise it would just be sending a head to the Wei army.

  On the other hand, in the Wei army, the lion cavalry led by Huo Qubing and Liang Qiuhao was liberated from the logistics line and put into the front-line battlefield, and the effect was immediate.

  Rouran's peripheral troops hardly dared to show their heads, and they would be raided by lions as soon as they showed their heads.

  With one change and another, Wei Jun suppressed Rouran again on the scene.

  With the advantage of the light cavalry, Yan Ge no longer had the previous concerns and adopted an active attack strategy.

  For more than ten days, the two sides fought several head-to-head duels.

  With the experience of the logistics line, Wei Jun has mastered a good way to deal with the Black Mountain Cavalry and Archery.

  The lion riding on the outside is used to entangle it, and the Fuyuan giant crossbow is used to snipe in the battle, so that the Montenegrin cavalry shooters basically have no way to play any role.

  At this time, the king of Rouran, Anahuan, began to regret that he had dispatched Heishan to mount and shoot too early, so that the Wei army found a way to deal with it.

  Feilu reminds you: three things to read, collect and push

Chapter 191 Fake Surrender

  After several battles, both sides suffered casualties, but Wei's losses were much smaller.

  Compared with the Xiongnu, the Rouran people are not very good at melee cavalry except for the horse and archery. This is mainly because they lack heavy cavalry armor and can only compete with the Wei army by virtue of their passion and skilled equestrianism. .

  But in terms of the Wei army, the lethality of the black-armored dragon cavalry is not to be mentioned, even if it is an ordinary cavalry, with the standard armor made of Kunwu steel, although the riding skill is not as good as the enemy's, it has an advantage in defense and attack.

  The inferiority on the battlefield made Anahuan panic, and he issued a more stringent conscription order, which almost recruited all the middle-aged men from all tribes.

  In this way, although more Rouran soldiers died in battle, they replenished faster, and they still had an absolute advantage in numbers.

  To put it mildly, an army of [-] Rourans, even if they stood still and let Wei Jun cut them, would have to cut them for several days.

  Therefore, although the Wei army has an advantage, it is difficult to convert the advantage into a decisive victory for a while.

  Under such circumstances, the generals under Yan Ge discussed many times and proposed a number of plans to force Rouran into a decisive battle, but they were all rejected by Yan Ge.

  What he needs is a most efficient tactic that can destroy Rouran at the lowest cost.

  After all, Yan Ge was not facing Rouran's enemy, the most important opponent was actually the Huns, who were staring at him from afar.

  Once Rouran's side drags on for a long time, or suffers heavy casualties, it is likely to be destroyed by the Xiongnu.

  Jiang was still old, and Jiang Ziya finally took action when Yan Ge was most anxious. He made a bold plan: let Huo Qubing lead 5 lions to ride, and Li lead 5 black armored dragons to bypass the main battlefield and capture the rear of the royal court. The various tribes on the grassland! Yan Ge questioned: "Tai Gong, our troops are already less than the opponent's, and now if we divide our troops into a surprise attack, we are still two main battle troops. Danger."

  Jiang Ziya stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, don't disturb, King Rouran has been frightened by the elite soldiers of our Great Wei, and he is now madly recruiting soldiers, which is a sign of a guilty conscience.

  As long as we continue to maintain the daily attack posture, he will only dare to passively defend, and never dare to take the initiative to attack."

  "On the other hand, Rouran's large-scale conscription will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the defense forces of the various tribes in the grasslands.

  With the [-] cavalry we sent, it was not difficult to wipe out the entire Rouran tribe.

  Your Majesty, think about where the food and grass for his army come from, if these tribes are captured by us, his army of 80 people on the front line will be able to support them for a few days!"

  Yan Ge suddenly realized: "That's right, isn't Rouran also thinking of harassing our logistics? We can treat others in the same way!"

  Li Cunxu on the side said: "Your Majesty, they are harassment, we are equivalent to directly taking over their nest!"

  So that night, Huo Qubing and Li Jing each led [-] outstanding Great Wei knights, quietly rushed out from the rear army, and detoured towards the vast grassland behind the royal court.

  Jiang Ziya was right. In front of these two powerful cavalry troops, the Rouran tribe in the back had no ability to resist at all. Basically, it took only three days for the two troops to look down on the wind and broke dozens of them. Rouran tribe.

  Anahuan was shocked when he heard about it, and quickly divided his troops to pursue him.

  But these two troops dominated the sweaty BMW and the claw Huang Feidian, and they went into battle lightly, so how could Rouran catch up! Li Jing

  Leading the troops to the east, Huo Qubing leading the troops to the west, Rouran's pursuers ran behind Wei Jun's buttocks, they could only stare blankly at Wei Jun's actions, unable to respond effectively.

  Seeing this situation, Huo Qubing and Li Jing, the two generals who were good at assault tactics, boldly thought of the idea of ​​counterattack. So the pursuers sent by Anahuan were completely wiped out, not only failed to stop the tactics of the Wei army, but also reduced their effective strength.

  Without Rouran's pursuit, Er Jiang will be more open to hands and feet.

  They simply no longer adopted the strategy of eliminating materials and personnel, but captured a large number of Rouran herdsmen and seized countless materials.

  Within a month, more than 50 troops of Rouran surrendered to the Wei army, Huo Qubing and Li Jing seized horses, and more than 30 cattle and sheep. These personnel and materials were continuously sent to the rear of Wei.

  Rouran's strength is rapidly weakening, while the strength of Wei's army continues to grow! Rouran's army is in a desperate situation.

  The tribes in the rear were continuously attacked by lion cavalry and black armored dragon cavalry. Countless tribes were attacked and surrendered to Wei State. This meant that the supply of supplies for the army in front was getting smaller and smaller. .

  But they didn't dare to divide their troops to chase, the number of pursuers sent was small, and they would only deliver food to these two elite cavalry, and they sent more troops, and they were afraid of the collapse of the frontal battlefield.

  In desperation, Rouran had no choice but to fight with Wei Jun.

  Wei Jun, who had been aggressive before, was now playing the tactic of retreating, no matter how Rouran challenged him, he would not accept the move.

  If the Rouran army is overwhelmed, the Wei army will retreat in time, making the Rouran people very depressed.

  In addition to the main elite troops such as the Black Mountain Cavalry and Archery, a large part of Rouran's army was temporarily recruited from various tribes.

  They not only have limited fighting power, but also lack the will to fight.

  Once the war is not smooth, it is difficult to maintain the stability of the military.

  In order to deal with this situation, Rouran Wang Anahuan almost went bald, but there was still no good solution.

  He let out a long sigh, knelt before the shaman and prayed to the sky: "The great ancestor god, the glorious Deleqin, the merciful Bie Ya, save our Rouran people! You really have the heart to see your people being insidious. Will the cunning Chinese people be wiped out!"

  Perhaps the great ancestral god really heard the call of Anahuan, and the prime minister Gunado offered a plan to Anahuan.

  Gunardo was wearing a red and white coat with several colored straps on his body: a small gray cap, and his face was full of folds.

  He said to Ana Huan: "My noble khan, I have thought of a brilliant plan that will definitely defeat the Wei army!"
