"I heard that you are going to make the first move? Aren't you brave?" The old fox Kang Zhongxin still showed his old and disrespectful behavior. As soon as he saw Wang Xun, he immediately started to smile playfully again.
"Yes!" Wang Xun nodded and responded in a low voice. "The thieves are emboldened. The longer we wait, the worse the situation will be for us. So..."
"You don't have to talk nonsense!" Before he could explain his words clearly, the old fox immediately interrupted with curled lips, "I told you before that the stone castle guard has probably been bribed by thieves. No matter what we do,
Wait, we won’t wait for any soldiers to come! But the enemies on the opposite side are no less than us right now. If we take the initiative to attack, it will most likely be an evenly matched battle! Every one of us will die here, and the reinforcements from others will be lost.
But you can arrive at any time!"
"That's not all. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid that the guard of Stone Castle will stab us in the back!" Wang Xun shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"What did you say?" Shi Huaiyi arrived on horseback just in time. Hearing Wang Xun's words, his eyes immediately widened.
"I mean, the guard of the Stone Castle may be working with the thieves behind the back of the Protector Feng Changqing to hack us!" Wang Xun sighed and explained in a low voice, "Anyway, he has no intention of hanging around under the Protector Feng Changqing."
Well, it’s better to do it more thoroughly..."
The reason is actually very simple. If you just stand still and the baggage train is lost, the guard of Shicheng Castle will definitely be held accountable by Feng Changqing. He will lead his brothers and the robbers to kill the baggage train together, and then escape to Ge Shuhan. No matter
Whether there is any conclusive evidence in hand, it is impossible for the Anxi Army to meet with the Hexi Army.
The most that Feng Changqing can do is to take the case to the court. But now Yang Guozhong has almost the final say in the court. Under his pressure, the case can only be dropped. When the storm calms down,
When people gradually forgot about this matter, Yang Guozhong and Ge Shuhan discussed their merits and rewarded them, and the guard of the stone castle could reach the sky in one step.
"This, this..." Shi Huaiyi was dumbfounded. He stuttered for a long time without even saying a complete comment. In the Loulan tribe, the elders were not monolithic. But no matter how intrigued the elders were,
, would not let the tribal warriors below kill each other. This large tribe in the Central Plains has always been known as a country of etiquette, but when brothers fight against each other, they do it so unscrupulously, as if there is no burden in their hearts!
"The Central Plains is very big, so the internal affairs are very complicated!" Wang Xun sighed and patted Shi Huaiyi on the shoulder, and helped him arrange the shoulder armor deck of the Mingguang Armor. This set of armor was taken off the corpses of the Hexi Army.
Yes, it is a little small when worn on the body. But compared with the cowhide armor made by the tribes in the Western Regions, the protective power is more than a little bit higher. "The good thing, maybe you can't think of it in this life. The bad thing, sometimes
Same!"
"Well!" Shi Huaiyi nodded, blinked his big eyes and became silent. But the old fox Kang Zhongxin laughed again, just like some kind of animal suddenly saw a toddler of the same kind in the wilderness, "Boy, you are enlightened. I
I thought you were never enlightened in your life. To be honest, it’s not easy for a confused guy like you to survive until now!"
Wang Xun smiled and did not refute. In fact, it was not that he was ignorant before, but he refused to think of people so bad from the bottom of his heart. In addition, there is another very important reason. In his subconscious mind, , no matter what Yang Guozhong, Ge Shuhan and the Stone Castle guard who were strangers to him did, they were all Tang people. But the old fox and the group behind him were out-and-out aliens!
But now, these aliens have to face powerful enemies with him. And his people are ready to stab him in the back at any time.
He didn't know whether he should be happy or find a place to cry first.
"Let's talk! How are you going to fight!" Seeing that Wang Xun refused to accept the attack, the old fox had to turn to the topic. "There are more people on the opposite side than us. And they have already begun to set up Luzhai! If we attack hard, we will definitely not be able to occupy any Cheap!"
"The most fearful thing is that the two sides are stuck together and no one can escape!" When it came to fighting, Shi Huaiyi immediately became energetic, "So, I think that instead of fighting them here, it is better for us to throw away the baggage first, mount the horse and escape. . Then find an opportunity to come back and catch them off guard!"
For the nomadic tribe, this is indeed a good choice when they are not as strong as the opponent. But Wang Xun's idea is completely opposite to this. "There is no need to throw away the baggage!" He paused the Mo Dao on the ground and interrupted. Shi Huaiyi said, "I have a way to defeat them. If everyone can follow it, maybe we can solve all the troubles in one fell swoop!"
"any solution?!"
"tell me the story!"
The eyes of Little Shitou and Old Fox lit up at the same time, and they urged one after another!
"This Fubo crossbow can be used on horseback! I'm afraid you don't know it yet!" Wang Xun nodded, took off the Fubo crossbow specially used by the Tang cavalry from Shi Huaiyi's horse, pulled the trigger, and fired the crossbow arrow. Shoot into the gravel under your feet. Then bend your left leg, clasp a slightly wide wooden protrusion in front of the crossbow arm to your knee, and push hard. Just listen to the sound of "clang", the Fubo crossbow with complex structure actually He hung it up with one hand.
There is no need for him to explain the rest. Old Fox and Little Shitou, who grew up on horseback, naturally know how to maximize the power of the Fubo Crossbow.
Immediately, Old Fox and Little Shitou each called several Xiaojian, and in front of Wang Xun, they taught the real skills of using the Fubo Crossbow. Then they ordered them to practice quickly and be ready to go into battle at any time. (Note 1 )
While everyone was familiar with the techniques of using the Fubo Crossbow, Kang Zhongxin, Shi Huaiyi and Wang Xun began to discuss specific attack plans. The advantage in weapons could make up for the lack of numbers. The enemy troops came from three tribes, and it was difficult to coordinate with each other. The same flaws increased everyone's chances of winning by several points.
"I suggest you focus on greeting the Red Tooth Department!" Wang Xun looked across and discussed with the other two in a low voice. "They don't wear armor, and their bodies look stronger!"
Shi Huaiyi only led the team to charge and was not interested in finding a breakthrough. The old fox Kang Zhongxin's eyes lit up again. "Hit!" He agreed in a low voice and pointed at his disciples, "Within thirty steps, they are basically invulnerable. It will fail!"
"Divide the cavalry into three teams and shoot in turns. After firing an arrow, immediately run fifty steps away to reload the crossbow. Luzhai has just blocked the enemy itself. As long as they don't come out, we shouldn't get too close. !" Wang Xun thought for a while and continued to propose.
"But what if they chase them out?!" Shi Huaiyi couldn't keep up with his thoughts and asked in confusion.
"Ignore it, just lead the team to distance themselves." The old fox suddenly opened his eyes, with a murderous look in his eyes. "Go and say hello to all the brothers. Follow my orders and act. Who dares to be reckless anymore? He is rushing around, no matter what achievements he makes in the future, I will kill him. Go quickly!"
"Ah! Oh!" Shi Huaiyi was stunned again, agreed, and turned his horse to convey the order.
Looking at his back, the old fox couldn't help but shake his head slightly. Among the younger generation of the Loulan tribe, Shi Huaiyi is undoubtedly the top figure. But compared with Wang Xun, the Central Plains Taozi in front of him, the gap is almost obvious. Although this Central Plains Taozi Wang Xun He was just an abandoned son of their court, although according to Zhongyuan Yaozi himself, in Chang'an, young people like him were almost all over the streets!
Letting such a young man grow up would be a disaster or a blessing for the Loulan tribe's dream of rejuvenating the country. Suddenly, a feeling of regret surged deep in the old fox's heart. But now it was too late to regret. Along the way, Zhongyuan Yaozi has won the trust of most tribal warriors by virtue of his generosity, tenacity and bravery.
Laughter kept coming from Shi Huaiyi's side, which made the old fox even more distracted. Although he had just learned how to use it, and no matter how much he practiced, he still sharpened his guns in battle, and the Loulan warriors were still excited. Chipping is the best tactic of the nomads, and they have been following it since they were young. Their fathers hunted, so they almost became proficient in shooting while riding a horse and shooting a bow as a necessary skill for survival. However, because the arm of the riding bow is much shorter than that of the walking bow, and due to the limitations of the personal skills of the tribal craftsmen, in practice, In combat, the attack effect of galloping tactics is very poor. As long as the opponent's morale is not frightened by the arrows shooting from the sky, it will basically not have the effect of loosening the enemy's position. If the opponent is well-trained and well-armored, If so, the seemingly huge flying feathers in the sky can only scratch their itch.
However, the Fubo Crossbow equipped by the Tang Army made up for the lack of attack power of the cavalry bow. After the Loulan tribe obtained the Fubo Crossbow, they immediately fought a battle with the nearby Heba tribe and defeated the opponent to a complete defeat. But after all, the crossbow is not like the cavalry bow commonly used by warriors, which can fire continuously. In order to ensure the continuity of the attack, the Loulan warriors had to equip the Fubo crossbow with a leather rope. They rushed to the enemy's vicinity and pulled the trigger. After that, he immediately dropped the Fubo Crossbow. He relied on the other end of the rope tied to the saddle to ensure that the Fubo Crossbow would not be lost. The samurai himself quickly drew his sword in his hand and rushed forward while the enemy's formation was disrupted by the crossbow arrows. Fight with it.
Wang Xun's advice solved the problem of the crossbow being unable to shoot continuously. After a little practice, the Loulan warriors jumped on their mounts excitedly, eager to show off their skills on the enemy. Before jumping on the horse, Shi Huaiyi finally found another Taking a chance, when the old fox was not paying attention, he asked Wang Xun in a low voice, "Brother Wang, Brother Wang, what if the enemy chases them out? They are too disadvantaged in terms of weapons. They can't always hide behind Luzhai and get shot!"
"Once the enemy troops move out of Luzhai! It will be our business next!" Wang Xun smiled at him kindly and gave an incredible answer.
Note 1: Xiaojian, a low-level officer of the tribe, is similar to the gang leader in the Central Plains.
