The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 335 You Ziyuan’s Elite

"What kind of soldiers are these, and what kind of morale are they?!" You Ziyuan was inevitably moved at this moment.

To be honest, in You Ziyuan's view, following the Broken Dragon Stone, these Han soldiers who rushed to the urn city had become the prey of the turtle in the urn. He never expected that some people in Liu Tai's army would be so aware.

Even though he was crushed into pieces by the Broken Dragon Stone, he still held on to his last breath to create a way out for the soldiers who rushed in.

If it were just one person with innate divine power who could do this by relying on his own courage, You Ziyuan might be surprised or unlucky, but he wouldn't be as moved as he is now.

But now the wanderer looks at the small group of warriors in front of him supporting the Dragon Breaking Stone, thus giving the soldiers who rushed into the urn city a chance to retreat, but as a price, this small group of warriors were also wiped out.

This is the collective will of a small team of soldiers. Even if they choose to leave the Dragon Broken Stone and run away after feeling it, no one will blame them. After all, something like the Dragon Broken Stone is not something that humans can hold. of,

But they didn't. They chose to give their comrades a way to live, while they stayed and died calmly.

You Ziyuan knew very well that his soldiers were not only inferior in equipment and quality, but in terms of discipline and willpower alone, it was difficult for his own soldiers to match them.

But at this moment, You Ziyuan could only remain silent. He had used all he could imagine to estimate Liu Tai's power, but Liu Tai's power was in every aspect. Even the most ordinary soldiers made him feel afraid.

The traps and defensive facilities outside Tongguan were cleared at an incredible speed. In just one day, the Tongguan Wengcheng that he relied on was forced to use the Dragon Breaking Stone.

He wanted to squeeze out the last bit of the Wengcheng, but Liu Tai's army successfully escaped. Even Liu Tai's soldiers truly allowed him to see what it means to be a tiger and wolf army.

Even the armored warrior who is his trump card cannot hide it at this time, but needs to immediately support the defense of Wengcheng. Otherwise, he is afraid that Tongguan will not be able to defend it for even a day and will be forcibly broken by Liu Tai. .

There was no way, Liu Tai's attack was too fast. Although You Ziyuan had been prepared for the war, he never thought that Tongguan would lose the Wengcheng if it could not hold up for a day, so there was no time to prepare for the internal city defense. .

After all, many city defense materials are stored in warehouses, and it will take time to transport them to the city wall.

Liu Tai attacked so eagerly that he didn't have much time for the wanderers to mobilize and prepare.

Therefore, if the Wengcheng is easily attacked and occupied by Liu Tai's army, then Tongguan may really change hands within a day.

By then, I will really become a joke in Chinese military history, so no matter what, I have to defend Wengcheng today!

Even though You Ziyuan originally wanted to use these armored soldiers as his trump card, at this time he could only let them attack first and deal with the emergency first, so You Ziyuan decisively sent this elite to Wengcheng.

When this elite group appeared, they immediately used their absolute numerical superiority to surround and kill Liu Tai's soldiers who climbed up the Wengcheng wall.

In particular, most of the weapons in their hands are heavy weapons, which are quite effective against armored soldiers.

After all, they have always been invincible on the battlefield as if they were driving a Gundam. Now that they have encountered the troops specially created by You Ziyuan, Liu Tai's soldiers will naturally suffer more or less!

For a moment, I saw them being beaten back step by step by this elite force. Some soldiers even got so hard that they fell off the city wall after retreating with no way out!

"Your Majesty, let me go up and kill the enemy!" At this time, Ge Xin took the initiative to ask Liu Tai for help.

Liu Tai waved his hand and said, "Don't be impatient. Let's order the sound battalion and the throwing battalion to prepare for covering fire."

Liu Tai didn't know exactly what happened on the city wall, but Liu Tai was certain that he had originally thought that he had been helped by the soldiers who had climbed up the city wall and retreated steadily while relying on the fish scale armor.

Liu Tai's character is actually not the kind of person who prefers taking risks. Although he really uses his troops like clay, he at least strategically needs to understand why his soldiers are willing to sacrifice their lives.

The kind of thing where you don't know what happened on the battlefield, and then you just fill in the soldiers, purely betting that your soldiers are better than the opponent's soldiers, and the equipment is more advanced than the opponent's, gambling purely for the sake of gambling, Liu Tai had no interest whatsoever.

Therefore, when Liu Tai saw that the Broken Dragon Stone below could not be broken open in a short time and the soldiers above retreated step by step, he had the idea to withdraw his troops with gold.

After all, this is the first day of the attack, so take your time and don't rush.

However, even if Ming Jin withdraws his troops, Liu Tai still has to leave some gifts for the other party.

At this time, Zhang Ping and Hefei sent people over to report that the Shesheng Battalion and the siege troops were ready.

Liu Tai ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, but he saw that Liu Tai's soldiers began to evacuate the wounded quickly and orderly after hearing this order.

Seeing this scene, You Ziyuan breathed a sigh of relief. Even the soldiers on the city wall began to look for the corpses of Liu Tai's soldiers, either to seize their weapons for themselves, or to pull off their armors. Dress yourself.

Although this elite group trained by You Ziyuan had the courage and equipment to fight against Liu Tai's soldiers on the battlefield, after the war, their own nature was also revealed at this moment, and they happily began to clean up the battlefield. Come.

When Liu Tai saw that all his soldiers had evacuated out of the attack range of the ballista and thunderbolt chariot, he ordered the launch without hesitation.

In an instant, this wave of rocks in the sky was thrown from the Thunderbolt Car, and it dealt a covering blow to an entire section of the city wall. Along with this covering blow, there were also shots fired from the Crossbow Car of the Shesheng Battalion. crossbow arrows!

Even Liu Tai's most elite iron guards could not withstand the power and sharpness of these crossbow arrows!

You need to know that there is a generation gap between the armor of Liu Tai and the armor of Zhao. This is the gap caused by a series of things such as flame temperature, equipment materials, and process flow.

However, there is no obvious difference between the steel used in Liu Tai's strong crossbows and that of his soldiers. Under such circumstances, Liu Tai's strong crossbows can directly break through the opponent's armor.

Therefore, at this moment, the soldiers on the city wall who were carefully prepared by You Ziyuan thought that Liu Tai's army was retreating at the request of gold, so they let down their guard, enjoyed the victory, and looked for trophies. After all, they were wearing iron armor, which gave them a sense of security.

But this wave of attacks before Liu Tai withdrew his troops shocked You Ziyuan, who shouted, "Be careful!"

The soldiers on the city wall were a little confused at this time, because they didn't know why their commander would shout like this. They were wearing iron armor. On this battlefield, what other weapons could hurt them? ? ! The next second, a series of crossbow arrows, accompanied by the whistling wind, penetrated their bodies and pinned them to the city wall.

At least one of the wounded had a hole the size of a bowl, but the soldiers who were lucky enough not to be hit by the boulder had to dodge the falling rocks above their heads. If they failed to dodge, they would be directly hit by the falling rocks and vomit blood.

At least at this time, the iron armor on their bodies could not bring them any sense of security at all. On the contrary, because they were wearing iron armor and had difficulty moving, it was quite difficult to quickly dodge the boulders in the sky.

In an instant, the entire outer city wall of Tongguan was immediately covered with corpses. Liu Tai could not see the scene on the wall, but felt that he had retreated. He cleared the city wall conveniently to facilitate the retreat of his troops.

Youzi looked at the elites he had selected from afar. At least hundreds of them were directly killed in the counterattack of Liu Tai's army. He felt an unspeakable suffocation feeling, which came directly to his heart, like a mouthful of blood in his heart, wanting to pouring out of the mouth.

This is a soldier. He has gathered the strength of the entire Zhao Kingdom, and he only managed to get 2,000 men for himself this year.

A quarter of the damage was lost in this wave, and You Ziyuan's face looked as ugly as his dead father!

"Hurry up and treat the wounded, re-transport combat supplies and garrison Wengcheng!" You Ziyuan endured the pain in his heart and quickly gave orders to his soldiers. You Ziyuan knew very well what he should do next.

Liu Tai calmly ordered the soldiers to return to military orders, and then ordered:

"I gave the order to Zhou Ping to let his Shesheng Battalion do the rotation work. We will set up the oars, select the elites from the Shesheng Battalion, and shoot the enemy soldiers on the city wall so that the other party's soldiers cannot easily repair the city wall.

In addition, he informed Jie Fei that he would throw a few more rounds of stone throwing in the dark. As for the specific time, number and quantity, he would decide it himself. If he couldn't figure it out, just roll the dice! "

The messenger immediately gave the order to Zhang Ping and Jie Fei, asking them to be responsible for the harassment.

Liu Tai immediately asked the soldiers in the medical camp to start treating the soldiers who came off the battlefield in order to save their lives as much as possible.

At the same time, Liu Tai arranged for the soldiers responsible for changing defenses, but he immediately recruited the captain and commander who were responsible for attacking Tongguan this time. He asked them to learn about the situation on the front line, and at the same time, he rewarded the first ones!

The name of the first soldier who ascended first was Ran Liang. He was brave but also quite good. He had only joined the army for two years. With the help of this first expedition, he was able to smoothly become the commander of the camp from a soldier.

He is more or less a person with an innocent fortune, because his father, Ran Long, was one of the refugees who took refuge with Tian Zhen when Liu Tai was in Yecheng. However, at that time, Ran Long was just a follower, and Liu Tai didn't pay attention.

He followed Liu Tai in the southern and northern wars. The people in front of him either followed Tian Tian to the navy, or died on the battlefield. In addition, he himself also trained in the war, and gradually became a song leader.

If it takes time and patience to make the leap from the Tun Commander to the Qu Commander, then the leap from the Commander to the Colonel is a natural chasm.

Ran Long was quite satisfied with this, because the captains or generals above the commander level needed to have outstanding martial arts or excellent commanding abilities. It was a pity that Ran Long was just an ordinary person.

Relying on the war experience accumulated with Liu Tai earlier, he has grown all the way to Qu Chang. At least his age and talent are no longer enough to support him to continue to climb up.

Ran Long was contented, after all, even if Qu Chang was in Liu Tai's military system, he was still considered a high-ranking official.

He was able to arrange for his son to join the army, so he first arranged to become a pro-soldier and familiarize himself with the environment in the army. When Liu Tai opened up quotas for conscription, his son was the first to fill in the hole, and he was directly recruited under him.

At least in these troubled times, joining the army is the most promising one, not to mention that Liu Tai's treatment of the army is enviable.

Therefore, many veterans will find ways to insert their sons or brothers into the army.

Although military history records of this kind of thing are recorded, they turn a blind eye and don't say much.

After all, this kind of second-generation military man with a reliable family can't be pushed out if he is not properly cultivated.

In these troubled times, in Ran Long's view, only by fighting with King Han is the best way forward. No matter what kind of opponent he encounters, King Han will definitely win.

In this case, if I don't hug the King of Han's big thigh tightly and go to war, how can I make a name for myself?

So when he saw that his son had given birth to a grandson, and the grandson lived to be three years old, he decisively brought Ran Liang out and followed his father to the battlefield to obtain military honors. But even so, Ran Liang's martial arts also impressed Ran Long. surprised.

From Ran Long's point of view, his son seems to be a little better than him in terms of martial arts and battlefield intuition. If song length is his limit, then his son might be able to become a school captain!

The achievement of being the first to get there this time will save him at least five years of travel. There will be no problem taking over from him in the future.

Naturally, Liu Tai didn't know Ran Liang or Ran Long, but if Ran Liang reported that his three-year-old son was named Ran Min, Liu Tai would definitely pay attention to him.

Regardless of whether Ran Min was doing it for himself or the Han people in history, at least the moment he issued the order to kill Hu and stimulated the will of the Han people, he was bound to become the most extreme national symbol of the Han people.

The greatest significance to Liu Tai is that when he kicked Yue Fei out as a national hero, Liu Tai was always talking about national unity when confronting people on the Internet. Then Liu Tai would mainly promote Ran as a national hero when confronting people in the future. Min.

The discussion continued, and the other party said that Yue Fei could still be regarded as a national hero. After all, a profit-seeking butcher like Ran Min only caused the death of the Han people in the north and had no effect on the Han nation at all.

Look, even in modern society, Ran Min still plays a role.

Not to mention, the Han people are sheep. During the Five Horse Races in the Central Plains, it was Ran Min who let the foreigners know that the Han people are not silent lambs. They will not kneel down in front of the butcher's knife, but will bite you to death if pressed. lion.

So if Liu Tai knew that Ran Liang's son was called Ran Min, he would decisively prepare the complete "Book of Han" and "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" for him, and patted Ran Liang and said:

"I'm very optimistic about your son. You have to discipline him a lot. If I have the chance, I will definitely take the exam myself!"
