Chapter 275

Two hundred engineers killed two hundred cavalrymen.

When the news reached the rear, all the generals shouted that it was impossible.

Isn't this talking in a sleep?

Not to mention humans, even if two hundred pigs ride on horseback, it is not something that infantry can win, not to mention that only engineers work hard, so how can they get such great skills!

Faced with the doubts of these people, Zhao raised his fist with a big hammer.

"Hmph, dare to look down on engineers? Tell you, engineers are only a lot more and more training than you. How can you do it without strong abilities if you dare to be the vanguard of the entire army? If you are not convinced, let's compete now!"

As he said that, Zhao Da put on an attitude and hooked up against Han Tong, Zhang Yongde and others, hoping to let them get on. These two people are not stupid either. If they compete with Zhao Da, wouldn’t that be abusive!

"We, go to the battlefield to see. If you lie about military merits, you will ask the Marquis to punish you and beat you another plan!"

They grinned and led their subordinates to the valley where the battle took place.

Wherever you see, there are corpses everywhere.

More than 140 Khitans died, and there were still many corpses of dozens of war horses on the ground.

The engineers were cleaning, and they also sacrificed more than 60 people.

Everyone has a gloomy face and looks very bad.

They carefully packed up the bodies of brothers in the robe, then peeled off the dead horse's skin, put the bodies in, and carried them on a stretcher and sent them back to the barracks.

The lively and lively man turned into a cold corpse in a battle. Who wouldn't be sad? Chen Ming followed everyone to carry the corpse. This soldier was two years younger than him.

He always laughed and told Chen Ming privately that he would learn skills and would not be able to use swords and guns in the future, and he could go home to work and earn money to get married. Chen Ming agreed, and the boy changed his words and shouted, "Master," Master.

Who knew that in a blink of an eye, he would die!

Chen Ming only felt that his heart seemed to be poked by a knife, which hurts so much!

"Hey, aren't you fighting against the cavalry? Why are you just fighting horses like this?" Zhang Yongde shouted loudly.

Chen Ming rolled his eyelids, "That's all, the other war horses ran away!"

"Beast!"

Zhang Yongde didn't believe it, "Is it because you have hidden it privately? Tell you that hiding a war horse is a serious crime! You want to be beheaded!"

Chen Ming was still unmoved, "The Khitans didn't take my head away. The adults wanted to take it away, just take it!"

"you!"

Zhang Yongde was choked so much that he couldn't even say a word, and Han Tong couldn't help but laugh.

The war is so hard and so many brothers have died. Among the things seized, the war horses are the most valuable. They are sold secretly to help the dead and injured brothers. It is understandable.

Just don't sell the war horses to the enemy. The meat is rotten in the pot, what's the point?

Zhang Yongde knew Han Tong’s thoughts and couldn’t help but curse.

You are just a brainless person. I am not incompetent with soldiers. I don’t want to see Zhao Kuangyin’s success. If you don’t catch him any more, look at him, he will show off in the future!

It's true that Zhang Yongde guessed it right.

Zhao Kuangyin found Ye Hua and offered a strategy to break the city... Yizhou is the gateway to Youzhou. In addition to the Han army, there are also three thousand Khitan Tielin Army. In addition to the strong city, it is easy to defeat it.

What's more important is that Xiao Siwen's 50,000 army was stationed in Youzhou and would assist the defenders of Yizhou at any time.

If the strong attack makes the teacher and veterans exhausted, it will not be cost-effective even if you win.

Ye Hua couldn't help laughing, "It's great, I know I've used my brain. Then what are you good ways?"

Zhao Kuangyin grinned, "Master Marquis gave it to us engineers, keep it and take down Yizhou!"

"What if I can't get it?"

"I am willing to issue a military order!" Zhao Da said with his chest.

"It requires a time limit, otherwise what if you fight for ten or eight years?"

Zhao Kuangyin thought for a while, "Okay, it's up to one month. If I can't take Yizhou, I'm willing to take the blame!"

Ye Hua was not polite and asked Zhao Er to write a military order and ask his elder brother to sign it.

"Brother, you'd better stop being stubborn. I'm afraid you can't do it. If you get beheaded... then I'll become the pillar of our family. I have to decide everything. The whole family will listen to me..." Zhao Er frowned more and more. He thought he would not die, but he still hoped that his brother would die soon!

Zhao Kuangyin wrote his name on it and pressed another bright red palm print.

"Second, I would like to advise you to study hard for a few years. Your little knowledge is far from it!"

After saying that, Zhao Kuangyin turned around and left.

Zhao Erxiao's face turned red and turned to find Ye Hua.

"Master, look at my brother who is too ungrateful. He has great military tactics and will be defeated. He will not win in this way."

Ye Hua lowered his head, read the general's order, put it in the table, then raised his head, and said seriously: "Well, your handwriting is too bad, you can't take it." Ye Hua took out a copybook and pushed it in front of Zhao Er.

"According to the copying, write a thousand words every day!"

puff!

Zhao Er bleeded blood. Master, I didn’t say anything about my brother, what about him!

"I tell you, this is given to me by Master Feng. We both master and apprentice cannot write bad words, so you must practice calligraphy well!"

"I!"

Zhao Er was crazy, "Master, why didn't you practice calligraphy well? I think the champion Hou should be both civil and military, don't you?"

Ye Hua shrugged, "The truth is right, but I don't want to write, and I am still your master, so...you practice your calligraphy for me!"

After saying that, Ye Hua shook his sleeves and went to bed behind him.

Zhao Er was frowning and indignant. You are all waiting. Sooner or later, the second young master will learn good skills and surpass you all and let you bully me!

Not to mention that Zhao Er was practicing calligraphy with great grudges, his brother was not idle either. Zhao Kuangyin commanded the engineers and pushed the shield cart to approach Yizhou City. At three hundred steps away, he asked the soldiers to stop, and then prepared the wooden frame and cement. In less than an hour, he built five three-meter-high arrow towers.

The arrow tower is not big, so you can only place two bed crossbows.

Zhao Da thought it was very good.

"Come on, try it, can you get into the city?"

"Abide by the order!"

The soldier installed the arrows and helped a fist-sized fire pot at the arrow, ignited the fuse in advance, and then hit it hard, and the arrows shot out almost straight towards the city tower in Yizhou.

Bang!

The fire cup exploded, the tinder splashed everywhere, and it started to burn in a blink of an eye.

The parents of soldiers on the city tower screamed and fled in panic. Then, a second arrow came again, and the splashing sparks fell on them, and the fire immediately ignited. Many people did not understand the characteristics of tincture oil and even used water to water. Who knew that the more water the fire became, the bigger the fire. Under the two arrows, more than a dozen people were injured, three of whom were burned to death.

The person in charge of guarding Yizhou was Governor Li Zaiqin. He was loyal to Khitan and married his Khitan wife. He was wholehearted and would never surrender.

In the past few days, he actively dispatched troops and guarded with all his might, and never let Yizhou fall into the hands of the Great Zhou.

Hearing that Zhou Bing used his mind to attack the city with his weapons, he was frightened and hurried to check it out in person.

At this time, Zhao Kuangyin had already built arrow towers on all the city walls and kept shooting arrows into the city. It was nothing but crossbow arrows. What was terrible was turmeric oil. It was just stained with. The soldiers were either killed or injured, and they died in a particularly miserable way. Those who saw them did not dare to go to the city at all.

Li Zaiqin is not afraid when he sees these things!

He immediately selected elite troops to go out of the city to attack the Arrow Tower.

When the Khitans came, Zhao Kuangyin had already taken away with his men and took the crossbow away. There was only a three-meter-high arrow tower left on the ground.

The Khitan soldiers spread all their energy on the arrow tower, smashed the arrow tower with weapons, hammers, and axes, and then returned to the city with pride.

But less than two hours after they returned, the crossbow arrows outside the city came again.

And it became even worse, and the city walls on all sides turned into a sea of ​​fire!

Engineers can quickly build bridges and arrow towers. With cement, a magic weapon for repairing the sky, they can quickly build an arrow tower as long as they pre-made cement boards and wooden shelves.

It just so happened that the Eight Niu Crossbow could also be disassembled and installed on it. It would take less than a quarter of an hour to launch rockets into the city!

If someone in the city moves, they will break the back with an archer and quickly dismantle the Baniu Crossbow, come down from the arrow tower, run away, and never fight head-on.

Scoundrel, full of scoundrel!

But what are the soldiers in the city?

If they don't come out and destroy the Arrow Tower, they won't be able to guard their city.

What's even more annoying is that Zhao Kuangyin is not shooting arrows in a fixed place, so the people in the city must always be vigilant and leave the city to fight at any time.

"He actually knew how to use tricks in this Zhao Kuangyin!" Han Tong sighed.

Zhang Yongde said with a dark face: "What kind of strategy is he? He is just learning from the current emperor!"

When Guo Wei pacified Li Shouzhen, he built a village outside the city to attract the troops from the city to attack. After a while, the soldiers and horses in the city were exhausted and were finally easily defeated by Guo Wei.

Zhao Kuangyin also learned from Guo Wei this move, but the cost of using the Arrow Tower was even lower. With only 800 engineers, he could make the people in the city fascinated and he could not rest day and night.

"Li Zaiqin can't hold on for long!" Han Qiong said with great heart.

Zhang Yongde gritted his teeth, "Let's not watch the fun, we can ambush the good people. When the people in the city come out next time, give them a cruel thing!"

"This method is good, and the credit cannot be left alone by Zhao Da!"

In the evening, the arrow tower was set up again. Although the people in the city were exhausted, they still rushed out and rushed straight towards the arrow tower.

The boring game is still going on, the engineers are still running away, and the Khitan cavalry have prepared their hammers to repeat these things that have been done countless times in the sky.

But this time it was different. Behind the engineers, there were two hundred bed crossbows ambushing!

"put!"

Thick and long arrows passed through the crowd, creating terrible blood alleys.

The power of the Eight Niu Crossbow is unparalleled. Because it was shot from both sides, the dense crowd was almost inexhaustible. Countless people were injured by arrows and fell off their horses and died.

Seeing that the opportunity came, Han Tong sternly said: "Run!"
Chapter completed!
