Chapter 231: Iron Caltrops and Horse-Rejecting Guns
On the field, Su Anlin's manpower was ready.
Immediately, the flag bearer waved the flag to signal an attack.
After Jin Wu saw it from a distance, he immediately patted the horse: "Rack, rack, rack..."
Suddenly, the horses were stimulated and galloped forward.
Jin Wu has excellent riding skills, and the horses move forward steadily under his control.
After a while, they arrived at the attack area designated by Su Anlin.
The strange thing is that there are no weapons and equipment here.
"What are you doing? There's nothing?"
Jin Wu is strange.
He had been careful along the way just now, but he didn't find anything.
But suddenly, the war horse was frightened, jumped out, and fell to the ground.
Jin Wu didn't expect this to happen suddenly, and he was thrown to the ground without any warning.
After rolling around for several times, I stood up.
Looking back, I saw that the war horse seemed to have stepped on something. It was limping, unable to stand, and kept howling.
Looking carefully, I saw blood flowing from the feet of the war horse. It must have stepped on something.
Seeing this scene, Yang Wenli nodded excitedly: "Palace Master Su, what happened? Why did the war horse fall down from fright for no reason?"
Su Anlin took out the iron pear and explained: "This is it."
"This is……"
"This is an iron pear. No matter how you throw it on the ground, the sharp parts will point upward. If there are a large number, sprinkle it on the place where the enemy charges. Once horses or wolf cavalry step on it, it will cause a chain reaction."
Jin Wu ran over and couldn't help but said: "Although this thing will slow down the impact of the wolf cavalry, once the opponent is prepared, he may deliberately get out of the way."
He had just been thrown into a very embarrassing situation, so he deliberately played the opposite tune.
Su Anlin said: "Whether it is cavalry or wolf cavalry, the advantage lies in the first wave of charge. Without the power of this wave of impact, the strength will be weakened."
"But there are a lot of wolf cavalry. This is just the first part of the wolf cavalry that was injured. How to solve the problem in the future?"
"I still have a rifle!" Su Anlin asked his men to take out the rifle.
Only then did Yang Wenli know what Su Anlin was hiding in the grass.
It is similar to an iron fence, but five sharp spears stand on it, about half a person tall.
"Let me introduce, this is the carbine. When faced with a charge, launch it immediately. Whether it is a horse or a wolf cavalry, once it jumps over, it will be pierced by the carbine."
Introduction by Su Anlin.
Jin Wu continued to sing the opposite tune: "The impact of the Wolf Cavalry is very strong. Can this thing withstand the impact? Don't be overwhelmed by the first wave of impact."
Su Anlin said: "You can try pushing it."
Jin Wu walked over, and when he got closer, he discovered that the tail of the horse's spear was touching the ground.
In other words, unless the spear breaks, this thing will not be destroyed.
"How about it." Su Anlin walked over and said.
"This thing can indeed stop the impact, but...but, for example, this iron pear needs a lot of quantity. If I were an enemy and saw you putting these, I would withdraw my troops, and we would have to continue to make them as time goes by.
, there is a lot of wasted iron, and many soldiers on the front line need weapons, and part of the iron is used to make these iron pears, so aren’t the weapons not enough?"
Jin Wu couldn't help but said.
When Yang Wenli heard this, he thought so.
Iron-making production capacity in ancient times was extremely limited. For example, this iron pear looks small, but the manufacturing process is not simple.
The irons need to be connected together in four directions.
If blacksmiths already make this, what will happen to weapons?
Weapons are consumed very quickly on the frontline battlefield.
If the soldiers have no weapons, how can they fight?
Su Anlin smiled and said: "I have also solved this problem. Look, is there a small hole in the middle of this iron pear?"
When everyone took a look, sure enough, there was a small hole in the middle.
Su Anlin said: "This small hole is used to thread ropes together. We sprinkle these outside, and thread about thirty or fifty iron pear pears on each rope."
"In this case, we can collect these things and take them away directly with the rope. Therefore, there will be no waste."
Jin Wu still wanted to speak, but Yang Wenli stopped him directly.
"Alright Jin Wu, what Hall Master Su said has proven that these two weapons can be used. Take good care of your horses and rest for five days. After five days, we will go to Bianliang City."
Jin Wu quickly said: "Yes, but Mr. Hou, the master's side..."
"I have already sent Zhou Yong. By this time, Zhou Yong will have almost arrived home. I hope my father will give me some face and let me lead the troops." Yang Wenli sighed.
Su Anlin was suspicious: "What if I don't give you face?"
"Then we can only wait for the defeat at the border...but then the people will suffer."
Jin Wu quickly said: "Master Hou, the common people at the border are all relying on you. After you left, Huang Xing took away the military power. That guy did not do business all day long. If this continues, how can our brothers defeat the barbarians?"
Yang Wenli was also very anxious and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, I won't just let it go. If my father doesn't listen, I will decide to go home in person and ask my father to send troops."

capital.
Yang Guogong Mansion.
At this time, Zhou Yong came to the Duke's Mansion carrying a letter from Yang Wenli.
Zhou Yong has followed Yang Wenli through life and death for many years, and his own strength is not weak. He is a master of the ninth level of body training.
He knew very well how important this matter was to Yang Wenli. It was not only related to Yang Wenli's future, but also related to the safety of his border brothers.
So he barely rested along the way, and finally returned to the Duke's Mansion.
Just as he was about to enter, Zhou Yong's face changed slightly.
Two men in brocade clothes walked towards me.
The first person had a large mole on his chin, his demeanor was arrogant and domineering, and his walking posture was almost sideways.
These two people were Yang Wenli's eldest and second brothers.
So between the eyebrows, there is some similarity with Yang Wenli.
However, the relationship was not so good. Yang Wenli's mother was just a concubine, and Yang Wenli himself had a low status.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Over the years, Yang Wenli relied on his military exploits on the battlefield to feel like he was on an equal footing with his elder brother.
But this time, he was defeated on the battlefield, which caused his status to plummet.
Zhou Yong knew very well that these two people were not good people and was worried that they would cause harm, so he lowered his head and prepared to wait for the two people to walk over before asking to see the master again.
Unexpectedly, the leader, Yang Qitian, had sharp eyes and saw Zhou Yong at once.
"Hey, aren't you my third brother's follower? Didn't you go to Meilan City to chase the Yin Sect? Why are you here? Where is my third brother?"
Yang Qiong, the second younger brother behind Yang Qitian, is handsome though he is.
But with a stern look, he glanced behind Zhou Yong and found that Yang Wenli was not there.
He suddenly became excited.
"Could it be that my third brother was killed by people from the Yin Sect, and you came here to report the funeral?"
Zhou Yong's attitude towards these two people is not surprising.
Not to mention him, even if Yang Wenli stood in front of these two people, these two people would not be able to spit out ivory from their mouths.
Although he was very dissatisfied, Zhou Yong did not dare to say anything and said in a low voice: "See the eldest son and the second son, to tell you, the marquis is not in danger, he just sent me here to report some information about Meilan City.
matter."
"What are you reporting?"
"Well…………"
Of course Zhou Yong wouldn't say it.
This made Yang Qitian very unhappy.
He is the eldest son of Duke Yang.
From childhood to adulthood, who has not supported and coaxed him?
After all, if the family title is hereditary, he will have the final say in the future of the Yang family.
Therefore, he has always been very dissatisfied with Yang Wenli's achievements in the military and wanted to suppress Yang Wenli at every turn.
At this time, when he saw that Yang Wenli's subordinates were hesitating at his words, he suddenly became very angry.
Just go up and kick it.
"boom!"
Zhou Yong was kicked to the ground.
In fact, a playboy like Yang Qitian is not very strong. If they really fight, Zhou Yong can beat ten like him.
But Zhou Yong didn't dare to take action.
If he takes action, not only will he be unlucky, but he will also ruin Yang Wenli's important affairs.
Zhou Yong covered his head and could only cry out, his voice deliberately loud.
"Hey young master, hey young master, spare your life, young master. Please spare your life, young master."
"Made, if you don't tell me, if you don't tell me, I'm tired of living. Believe it or not, I will put you in jail and lock you up for ten or eight years."
"Eldest Young Master, I didn't say anything. It's just that things in Meilan City are very troublesome. I don't know how to say it."
Yang Qitian's body had already been drained by alcohol and sex, so after a few blows, he was so tired that he couldn't breathe.
"Okay, tell me what my brother asked you to come here for. If you tell me, I will let you go. No, not only will I let you go, but I will also give you a reward!"
Yang Qitian smiled, his face flashing with an imperceptible glimmer.
Zhou Yong felt a chill in his heart and said quickly: "Just talking about some things about the Yin Sect."
"that's all?"
Yang Qitian frowned, he didn't say much about his interest in the Yin Sect.
In the final analysis, catching the Yin Sect is a thankless task.
Because it is difficult to catch people from this sect.
And they are almost inexhaustible.
If you don't eradicate it completely, it won't be said that you have made great achievements. Instead, you will be accused of not doing a good job.
He usually kowtows while cursing in his mind: "That's all, it's a bit embarrassing now. As long as you do good things for the Marquis, it will all be worth it."
"Qitian, are you bullying your servants again?"
When Yang Qitian heard the sound, it was like a mouse seeing a cat. He turned around and knelt on the ground: "Dad, you are here."
The person who came was none other than Duke Yang.
Yang Guogong was in a good mood today and just wanted to go fishing. Who knew he would encounter this scene?
He glanced at Zhou Yong and recognized Zhou Yong: "You... aren't you from Wenli's side?"
Zhou Yong nodded repeatedly: "See your lord, the Marquis sent me here to report something important."
Yang Guogong stroked his white beard and said, "What are you doing here? Go in."
After saying that, he looked at Yang Qitian and Yang Qiong suspiciously, and suddenly his eyes widened: "You two bastards, are you trying to stop Zhou Yong on purpose?"
He is not stupid either. He knows that the two sons and Yang Wenli are not very happy on weekdays.
Yang Qiong was like a mouse seeing a cat, kneeling down and saying, "Dad, we don't have one."
"Still saying no?"
"Really...really not." Yang Qitian said quickly.
"Then whose screams just came from?"
Yang Guogong blew his beard and glared, shouting: "It's getting more and more outrageous. I've told you a long time ago that if you have nothing to do, just study liberal arts and science. Look at how much they share my worries. What about you?"
The two of them didn't dare to take a breath after being spoken to so loudly that they lowered their heads and said yes again and again.
"Get out of here, I'll punish you in the practice room for three days and you're not allowed to go out."
"yes!"
The two of them went down quickly.
Only then did Zhou Yong come to Yang Guogong: "Sir, this is a letter written by the master himself. It records roughly what he has experienced recently. In addition, the master has any other requests for your help."
"Come with me."
Yang Guogong did not read the letter immediately.
He knew very well that this kid Yang Wenli was not like Yang Qitian and Yang Qiong who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.
If Yang Wenli asked him for something, it must be a big deal and not something to be careless about.
Coming to the study, Yang Guogong said seriously to Zhou Yong: "Tell me, what happened to the young master recently? Who did you meet?"
Zhou Yong roughly said it.
When he heard that Yang Wenli had solved the water monster along the way and eradicated several elders of the Yin Sect, his brows relaxed.
"well!"
He said 2 good words in a row.
So, among the three sons, only Yang Wenli is the most like him.
Not only is he brave and resourceful, but he also loves the people like a son and is neither greedy nor lustful. He is truly a good official.
Therefore, although Yang Wenli was not of high birth, his mother was just a concubine.
However, he has always attached great importance to the treatment at home that does not belong to his eldest son Yang Qitian.
Perhaps because of this, Yang Qitian felt uncomfortable.
But so what?
After all, you, Yang Qitian, are not good at what you do, otherwise, he would not favor Yang Wenli.
After Zhou Yong finished speaking, he finally said: "The Yin Sect matter has been resolved. The young master heard that the border war is tense, so... so he wants to ask for troops to solve the danger of the barbarian wolf cavalry!"
"What, this is absolutely not possible."
When Yang Guogong heard this, he immediately waved his hand.
"Last time Wenli led troops, he suffered heavy losses. His Majesty Long Yan was furious. If it weren't for my sake, he would have been killed! How can I give him troops now?"
"Your Excellency, this time...this time the young master has a way to succeed."
"Um?"
Yang Guogong narrowed his eyes: "Bold!"
"Plop!"
Zhou Yong quickly knelt down and said, "My lord, please calm down."
"Why do you say you can succeed? Do you know that lying about military information should be punished according to the law!"
"Sir, I'm not talking nonsense. Young Master has found a way to defeat the Wolf Cavalry!"
"What? Can defeat the Wolf Cavalry!"
At this moment, Yang Guogong couldn't care less and quickly tore open the letter and read it.
The letter contains a rough record of what happened to Yang Wenli some time ago.
Finally, the Tiedanli and Jumaqiang were mentioned!
Because he could defeat the wolf cavalry, Yang Wenli requested that he be allowed to regain military power. He wanted to avenge his past humiliation and win glory for his father.
