Zhang Jian is thinking too much about his own affairs now, because it is useless to think about it. The law of war will naturally strangle all people and things that should not be there, such as He Ji.
The trumpet sound sounded at the top of the city, and the soldiers habitually straightened the flags on the top of the city, tidied up their armor, and prepared to face the new day. They were trapped in Chou City, and their days were like a year.
Zhang Jian squinted his eyes and looked at the quiet enemy camp opposite. After looking for a long time, he saw a group of birds falling into the military camp to look for food. Then he asked Wang Junke: "Have you ever sent scouts to investigate the military situation on the opposite side?"
Wang Junke said: "No, since yesterday the Silla people have been hunting our scouts like crazy, so I have not sent out any more scouts since yesterday. Commander, if necessary, I will go right here."
Zhang Jian shook his head and said: "Forget it, there must be dangers outside at this time. The Silla people must not want to let us know that they have left. Our troops are not strong enough to pursue them, so it is better to defend our city."
"Gone?" Wang Junke looked towards the enemy camp in disbelief. There was still a fierce battle yesterday, and the corpses under the city wall had not yet been restrained. How could they disappear now?
"The hundreds of birds falling in the camp means that there are not many people in the camp. The Silla people have left. I think the Baekje people in the north should also leave, right?" Zhang Tai appeared behind Zhang Jian again like a ghost.
"Leaving?" Wang Junke held the Hengdao in his hand, ready to chase down the enemy at any time.
"We are indeed gone. Junshi is right. We don't have the strength to pursue him. Nowadays, defending Pyongyang and taking root here are the top priorities. However, this will put too much pressure on Niu Jinda!"
Zhang Jian couldn't help but look to the west. Niu Jinda must have arrived here. Queen Seondeok's strong attack in the past half month was intended to weaken the Pyongyang defenders to the greatest extent at the last moment, trap Zhang Jian's troops in the city, and cut off Zhang Jian and Niu Jinda.
After that, he led the army to deal with Niu Jinda from the front, who hurriedly came for reinforcements.
Lao Niu's army has no solid city wall to rely on, and there is no dangerous terrain to take advantage of. Queen Seondeok believes that as long as her army rushes in front of Niu Jinda, it only takes one attack to swamp Niu Jinda's 30,000 army.
Besieging a city for reinforcements is an ancient war example. How could Queen Seondeok not know this truth if she is familiar with history books7
Zhang Tai said with a smile: "Niu Jinda doesn't need us to rescue him. His army is different from ours, from equipment to combat methods. We are actually at a disadvantage. He came out of the Tang Dynasty early and we didn't have time to change."
Let me tell you, we lost at least 70% of our combat power. Your Majesty took pity on us and gave us five hundred of such good things as gunpowder bullets. But everyone in Niu Jinda's army was equipped with five. As for the gunpowder crossbows, the gunpowder crossbows were
Oil crossbows, I heard that their single-arm trebuchets can even project large gunpowder bombs five hundred steps away. They even formed a complete set of military orders and regulations.
The new army of the Tang Dynasty pays attention to destroying the enemy on the way to charge towards itself. Therefore, large-scale battles are their favorite combat method. Yun Ye has successfully tested it in the Western Regions. His Camel City will use this tactic
The power has been exerted to the extreme. Surrounded by an army of 400,000, it can be as towering as a mountain and indestructible. Killing enemies is like mowing grass. It just relies on its own strong combat power to force Tu Shi to death under the city. When we finish changing our clothes,
I must let the people of Silla, Baekje and Korea know how powerful my grandfather is.
The king shook his head in agreement and said: "In the final analysis, fighting is about people's spirit. The sword is sharper and the armor is stronger. Now that it's like this, how can it still be called fighting?"
Zhang Jian said bitterly: "I don't care what method I use, even if it is poison that can kill these opponents, I will still use it. Jun Shi, more than 20,000 letters of reply to fallen soldiers are enough for you to write for a year."
"
When Zhang Tai heard this, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he couldn't even bring up the interest in talking. He picked up his blanket from the ground and put it on his body. Wang Junke bowed his hand towards Zhang Jian and walked quickly.
Got off the city wall.
Not only Zhang Tai lost the interest in talking, but Zhang Jian and Wang Junke also lost the interest in talking. Looking up, the rays of the morning sun covered the earth, and the whole world was bright, even those dark people under the city wall.
The corpse is still stubbornly showing the darkness in the world.
Just when Zhang Jian felt sad, Niu Jinda's bearded face was filled with a ferocious smile. Great, this is really an excellent battlefield. It is open on all sides and the land is flat. It is most suitable for large-scale killings.
It is especially suitable for cavalry charges. It won't be long before the place will be filled with corpses.
Even in the most brutal days of the war, the Tang Dynasty was still pursuing the path of elite troops, eliminating the weak and retaining the strong, and frantically strengthening armaments. The imperial army system was slowly withdrawing from people's sight. The original purpose of establishing the imperial army national policy was to hide the enemy.
Soldiers are based on the people. The common people are half farmers and half soldiers. When they go in, they become farmers and when they go out, they become soldiers. This can effectively reduce the financial burden of the country, but it is no longer necessary. The pace of professionalization of the military has been accelerating. It is crazy.
The emperor and his ministers were arming the professional soldiers of the Tang Dynasty to the teeth.
Destroy the enemy on the way to attack, this is what the emperor asked of the generals. Try to reduce the physical contact between the sergeants and the enemy, weaken the role of famous generals, and begin to believe in absolute force. In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies and tricks
It's all a ridiculous existence. Since Datang's military force can maintain its absolute advantage, what we have to do now is to expand this advantage to the extreme.
Niu Jinda wanted to try it out. Without a strong city to rely on, he wanted to know whether the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty could rely on weapons to gain an advantage in field battles.
Thirteen barbed wire fences were pulled up, and the ground was covered with triangular thorns. Small holes that hindered the galloping horses were also dug closely along their own trenches. As for the large piles of gunpowder, they were also buried. The sergeants creatively
Gunpowder and kerosene were buried together, and the soil was covered with triangular thorns. Once the gunpowder exploded, the power would be amazing.
This was a new invention of the academy students. Niu Jinda finally realized the benefits of recruiting knowledgeable people into the army. At least, ordinary sergeants could not think of such a vicious method.
The barbed wire slowed down the horses, and the triangular spikes scattered the enemy troops. When the enemy experienced the bombardment of trebuchets and gunpowder bombs, and then received a round of intensive attacks from eight-oxen crossbows, they finally had to face the soldiers' powerful crossbows and thrown gunpowder bombs.
Baptism, if after withstanding such rounds of blows, the enemy can still charge to the front of the military formation, there will be nothing left to say at this time, just use the sword.
It sounds simple, but in actual operation, there are strict regulations on the order. Niu Jinda looked at the densely packed small colorful flags on the battlefield and had to lament. These bastards have turned murder into a thing.
A project, a rigorous project, with no room for confusion.
The complex war has become extremely simple. You only need to follow one principle, which is not to fight an unprepared battle with the enemy. Scouts sometimes make mistakes, but there will be no mistakes in the hot air balloon floating above the head. Under the clear sky
The field of view can be expanded to the end of the field of view, and only one hour of preparation time is needed for the army to set up a new killing position.
It's just that supplies are more troublesome, and there are too many supplies that need to be carried, but in Niu Jinda's view, this is not a serious matter. Soldiers must be under the control of the state, otherwise, such a large army will cause chaos, which will cause very big consequences.
trouble.
There is no such equipment on weekdays. Only in wartime will the generals and supervisors prepare all the equipment needed for the army according to the needs of the army, especially gunpowder and kerosene, which are strictly controlled.
There were officials from three departments under Niu Jinda's command to supervise, one was the envoy of the Du Shui Supervisor, the other was the Sima of Wuli, and the third was the official who would be the supervisor.
The Capital Water Supervisor can be ignored. The Wuli Sima needs to be used to appease the soldiers and carry out rewards and punishments. The officials who will serve as supervisors will generally become logistics officers. Their main responsibility is to ensure that the weapons transported to the military camp can be fully consumed.
On the battlefield, rather than being sold out by the coach or hidden away.
Rapid whistles came from the hot air balloon, two short and one long.
Seeing the young captains starting to get busy, Niu Jinda became very happy. Very good, the enemy was already ten miles away. None of his young subordinates felt fear. On the contrary, he saw desire on their faces.
Fighting look.
Queen Seon Deok is destined to lose. Attacking a city is like smashing a walnut. If you can't smash it open with a hammer, then you just keep smashing it until it is cracked. Zhang Jian can't get any favors from him. Is it easier to smash this walnut?
It's a shitty battle, with a hammer here and a stick here and there. I besieged the city and called for reinforcements. I didn't know whether the reinforcements could be eaten, so I planned to eat them in one pot. This gave the exhausted Zhang Jian a chance to breathe in vain. I heard that this
This has happened more than once. Fighting is a competition of who can resist. If you have no endurance at all, you just run to the battlefield and embarrass yourself. Women are not born to be the coach.
Seeing small profits and forgetting one's life, doing big things without sacrificing one's own life, attacking everywhere as if trying one's luck. It is estimated that nothing will be left in the end. In the future, I will only pick up an embroidery needle and shed tears to embroider a series of confession pictures and send them to His Majesty.
I feel sorry for her, I hope she won't be hacked to death.
Niu Jinda curled his lips, saw the dust rising, and started charging ten miles away. How stupid a person would be to do such a move. When he got to the battlefield, he should save all the strength of his soldiers and horses and attack with all his strength. Now
Well, after running ten miles and arriving at the military formation, I still had to persuade you to surrender. The energy and spirit that had just been crippled were all drained out at once. This was a bullshit fight. Could it be that you just said a few harsh words and surrendered immediately?
"If the Silla people send someone to persuade them to surrender, use the eight-oxen crossbow to kill them!" Niu Jinda gave the order to the young captain beside him and returned to the central army, intending to evaluate the Silla people's combat power.
