Chapter three hundred and twenty eight young people
There were no problems as Lin Ye expected. Less than ten days after Lou Fan's Huxiao army turned to attack Hanhai City, they returned.
The reason why Helian Yu made a slow move was that he did not expect that the Jade Army would move north quickly without the will.
And this starts with a false imperial edict.
His original plan was to go through the Donglin Gorge, because there were no troops stationed here and there were no obstacles.
But now there is.
Without Lin Ye's sudden boldness, how could the current situation in Dongbo be like this?
At this moment, nearly 300,000 Tiger Roaring Army troops have surrounded Xiantang City.
It has been more than twenty days since Helianyu's army arrived here. This time has seriously delayed the progress of Lou Fan's plan.
At this moment, Helianyu had already anticipated his fate, but he had no other choice.
He must rush to Xiantang City as soon as possible, because if he is delayed again, it will not be a question of encirclement or not, but whether Lou Fan's army in Xiantang City will be counter-encircled.
The basis of this plan is fast.
Helianyu's team couldn't get up quickly.
Deer release platform.
Lin Ye raised his clairvoyance and looked towards the mouth of the valley. A large number of Lou Fan's troops had appeared.
"It seems that Helianyu is anxious."
Hong Wuding stood next to Lin Ye and said something.
Behind Lin Ye, Pang Panghai always felt a little awkward looking at the general in military armor in front of him.
That grass skirt outfit was still lingering in his mind.
Lin Ye said: "If there is an epidemic among the Loufan people, it will be useless for them to be anxious."
Hong Wuding asked: "General Lin is really only sixteen years old this year?"
Lin Ye: "Not full."
Hong Wuding was obviously a little surprised.
He seemed to have heard about it a long time ago, but he never quite believed how a boy under sixteen could achieve such an achievement.
"Young people do have their advantages, and young people also have their strengths."
Hong Wuding sighed in admiration.
Even the soldiers standing behind him showed expressions of surprise and envy.
When Hong Wuding left Hanhai City this time, he only brought a few dozen soldiers with him. They should all be his loyal soldiers.
"The Loufan people probably won't be in a hurry to attack today."
Hong Wuding looked forward and said: "They have to set up camp, make adjustments, and beware of General Yuan attacking from behind."
Lin Ye nodded.
The flea said: "Then I'll go to bed."
Lin Ye smiled: "Go ahead."
Hong Wuding waited for the flea to leave and asked: "Is that person just now a close guard of General Lin?"
Lin Ye said: "He is my friend."
Hong Wuding did not expect this, and he praised again: "He is a good friend and a generous and loyal person."
It seems that he is really a good person who doesn't hesitate to praise others.
He asked: "What is the name of General Lin's friend?"
Lin Ye smiled inexplicably.
The flea hadn't gone far yet. He couldn't help shaking his head and sighing. He turned back to Hong Wuding and said, "The common man's name is Yao Youqian."
After that, he left.
Hong Wuding said: "It's...not bad."
Pang Panghai said: "His name is actually not bad. My family's name is hard to describe in one word."
Hong Wuding became curious: "What is your name?"
Pang Panghai replied: "My name is Pang Panghai."
Hong Wuding didn't think there was anything wrong with the name. Many people had never seen the sea and only knew that the sea was very big, so they named it the sea. On the contrary, not many people who lived by the sea gave it this name.
Pang Panghai said: "My father's name is Pang Yougen."
Hong Wuding: "Well..."
Pang Panghai: "My grandfather's name is Pang Gouzi."
Hong Wuding: "Well..."
Pang Panghai: “My great-grandfather’s name is Pang Liubai.”
Hong Wuding was slightly startled: "Ling...great-great-grandfather is still quite capable. Ling-great-grandfather, I'm not sure. Is this because the family has fallen into decline?"
Pang Panghai: "I don't know anything about my great-great-grandfather, but since my great-grandfather, there must have been nothing."
Just as he was talking, the sound of a horn was heard in the distance, and everyone was a little surprised.
The Loufan people were not prepared at all. They just arrived here and were about to launch an attack?
Not long after, the Loufan people's team came up in a mighty manner, like a flood pouring into the canyon.
They were obviously really anxious and went straight in without taking any rest.
And they were obviously well prepared this time. The Lou Fan soldiers running forward had scimitars in their mouths and cloth bags in both hands.
Looking at the bag, you can tell that it is filled with soil.
"They're going to pad the steep slope."
Hong Wu decided: "Don't let it get close!"
It's a pity that they don't have heavy weapons in their army.
Both Hong Wuding's frontier army and Tuoba Lie's Beiye army had this kind of weapon.
The bed crossbow used for defending the city and the turning crossbow used for attacking are both powerful weapons.
If there were a row of heavy crossbows on the city wall at this time, it would be easy to suppress the Loufan people.
If there were more ferocious turning crossbows, and the Loufan people were densely packed in the canyon, just think about the scene, it would be a massacre.
The crossbow is Dayu's unique killing weapon. The subordinate countries of Dongbo and Guzhu have been begging for a long time, but Dayu has never given one to them.
The crossbow was first developed by the Lufa Department of Shangyang Palace and was later improved by the Wugongfang of the Dayu Military Department.
This object needs to be loaded on a horse-drawn carriage. Judging from its appearance, it looks like two coffins stacked together.
This thing was specially made to deal with Lou Fan's cavalry.
A crossbow can fire hundreds of arrows at once, like a downpour.
But the cost of making this thing was too high, and Hong Wuding only equipped fifteen of his 30,000 frontier troops.
If there are 200 of these things, Hongwu Dingzhen will dare to use 30,000 frontier troops to fight the Loufan people on the plains.
"Fireball."
Lin Ye turned around and shouted.
On the rear army's side, the large slingshots modified from the bamboo forest were bent, and then fireballs rose into the sky one after another.
This scene shocked Hong Wuding, but after thinking about it, this thing didn't seem to be very powerful.
"General Lin."
Hong Wuding asked: "In the Yu Ling Guards, there is a weapon specially designed to deal with masters, do you know?"
Lin Ye nodded: "I've heard of it, but I've never seen it."
Hong Wuding said: "That is something developed by the Yu Lingwei Anbu. It is said that with that thing, dozens of ordinary soldiers can kill a strong man in the Wuyue Realm."
He looked at the Loufan people outside the city: "Yuling guards should not hide their secrets. If this kind of thing can be used in military formations, Dayu will be invincible."
The Loufan people were already approaching, and the fireballs flying past really scared them at first.
However, the killing power was limited and the speed was not fast, so the Loufan people kept getting closer.
However, the effect of these things is to slow down Lou Fan's running speed.
"Arrow Array!"
Lin Ye stretched out his hand and pointed.
At this time, the person was about a hundred paces away.
After a round of projection, densely packed arrows flew into the sky.
The Loufan people kept falling, but their rear team, He Lianyu, personally supervised the battle, and the crossbow arrows of the supervising team were more terrifying than the jade people's.
Dead people, constant dead people.
However, the Loufan people still approached the steep slope. They dropped the soil bags they were carrying, and then climbed up the steep slope.
The more people died, the smaller the slope became. They used this method of heaping lives to continuously widen and slow down the slope.
In just an hour, the corpses and sandbags dropped by the Loufan people on the steep slope were covered layer by layer at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When Helianyu saw this scene, he turned around and shouted: "Brother!"
A strong man who seemed to be nearly a foot tall stepped out: "Here!"
He Lianyu pointed at the deer platform and said, "Kill him!"
The strong man took long strides and began to push forward with his men.
He is majestic, and the soldiers under him who rush into the camp are all majestic. Although they are not as strong as him, they are all as strong as bears.
Gobe is in front, followed by about a thousand strong men.
They all have shields in their hands and wear thick rattan leather armor.
This kind of thing is made of oil-soaked leather and oil-soaked rattan.
It is made of rattan and tightened with leather to fill the gaps so that the rain cannot penetrate.
The fabrication process is also very complicated. Between the two layers of rattan leather armor, there is also a layer of sand armor.
Sand armor is made by sewing sand into clothes. In order to prevent the sand from flowing, the clothes are sewn into many small pieces.
Under the protection of three layers of armor, let alone ordinary crossbow arrows, even if a long knife is directly chopped on it, it will be of little use.
This team is extremely powerful, but they are most afraid of fire attacks.
He Lianyu didn't let them go up at first because he knew that the beauty was best at using fire attack tactics.
He didn't want to waste all of this most elite team in this small area.
But now, he has no choice.
In order to cope with the beauty's fire attack, he also had someone sew a new sand armor.
It is worn outside the rattan leather armor like a vest. In this way, the body of the rushing camp has four layers of protection.
If you are not tall and strong, you may not be able to walk wearing this kind of protection.
"Vine leather armor."
On the city wall, Hong Wuding recognized him at a glance.
He looked at Lin Ye: "You can let the soldiers attack with fire. Vine leather armor is invulnerable and most afraid of fire."
Lin Ye immediately ordered: "Change the rocket."
The sky is filled with fire.
When these warriors saw the rocket coming, they raised their shields to resist.
Some of the rockets landed on them, but were blocked by sand armor and could not burn immediately. The warriors pulled them out and threw them away.
Lin Ye turned around: "Let the bamboo forest throw as many fireballs as possible. The more the better."
The order was sent out, and the big slingshot in the bamboo forest behind fired again.
This time, we are on the right track.
What the vine-skin armored warriors were most afraid of was fire. Even though they were wearing shields, the fireballs scattered when they fell, which was still scary after all.
After rushing for about dozens of feet, some of the vine-skin armored warriors were already on fire.
The vine leather armor is extremely easy to ignite, and they cannot hide when it is burned. It is not easy for them to take it off after wearing it, and they will definitely die if it catches fire.
Among the crowd, those fireballs looked particularly eye-catching, and the wails echoed throughout the canyon.
"More!"
Lin Ye turned around and shouted.
Fireballs and rockets flew out one after another.
If it were on the plains and the team dispersed, the casualties might be lower, but in this canyon, you can imagine how terrifying it would be.
When a thousand warriors in vine-leather armor rushed down the steep slope, probably more than two hundred of them were burned to death.
But when he got close, he immediately roared.
He was not afraid, because he was not wearing rattan leather armor at all, but stone armor.
It is unimaginable that such a majestic warrior also wears a suit of stone armor, and how heavy the combined weight would be.
Especially his upper body is made up of two shell-shaped stone slabs hanging in front of and behind him.
Even heavy crossbows may not be able to penetrate this kind of stone armor.
"If I can't come back, you take command!"
Lin Ye saw the vine-skin armored warrior coming up the slope. He waved his hand, the array knife appeared, and then jumped down.
As he jumped down, his personal barracks descended one after another.
This scene made Hong Wuding's eyes suddenly widen.
