The offense and defense are like playing games, constantly throwing your own stones and arrows to the other side, and the other party can easily use the stones and arrows they picked to carry out a violent counterattack.

But the battlefield environment is more complicated, not all the stones and arrows can be used, some of them fall into the moat, some of them fall at the foot outside the city wall, and some of the stones hit the ground It is broken and cannot be used any more.

The same goes for arrows, some of which were cut off by the swords wielded by the soldiers, some were broken by angry soldiers because they were shot into the soldiers ’bodies, and some fell into positions that were difficult to recover. The loss is that the loss rate is far inferior to that of later generations.

The soldiers who are extremely violent and killed in battle are not too many. Such a war can continue to be fought. If both sides of the war are killed and injured by more than half, then the war can not be fought. Go on.

The continuous and violent engagement consumes the soldier’s physical strength, and after the physical strength declines, the soldier’s reaction speed will decrease. Let the previous soldiers recover their physical strength so they can continue to fight.

There is a sentence called accumulation of less and more. Although the violent combat casualty rate is not large, with the ebbing of time, the casualties have accumulated to a relatively large number, and the loss of various siege equipment has also come up. In short, let people I felt the cruelty of war.

Artick personally inspected the soldiers in the direction of the north gate and brought them delicious meals.

Because there are 2000 soldiers and reinforcements, the soldiers defending the North Gate are taller than 5000 people, but now there are not so many people. As the casualties continue, there are already more than 500 soldiers killed and wounded in the morning. Among them, only There were more than 100 people killed in action.

Although this is not a big loss, after all, it is only one morning. If it takes two weeks, the entire city gate’s defensive horses should not be used up.

This is a very real problem, but they ca n’t help but defend. If they do n’t defend, the enemy outside the city will attack the city, when the time comes they will be finished, and they must continue to fight back. Destroy the living forces outside the city.

“There were more than 500 casualties in the morning. This casualty is really too big. We should find ways to reduce casualties.”

Altick was very dissatisfied with the number of casualties. He felt that the sacrifice was a bit too big. If he continued to fight like this, he would be able to lose all 5000 people in a few days.

“City Lord, the enemy has more casualties. At least 2000 people, our army has a great advantage.”

The subordinate said.

Another subordinate opened the mouth and said: “The city leader, the enemy is heading for the battle, many of them are the old 100 surnames captured nearby. These casualties include the casualties of the old 100 surname, and all the people outside the city add up It ’s close to 40000. Even if the enemy ’s casualties are two to three times that of us, we ca n’t afford it. The casualties are too great. ”

Altick shook his head and said: “This kind of battle is really meaningless. It’s all about casualties that’s all. I really hope to end this kind of consumption war earlier.”

“City Lord, we are afraid that there is no choice. Qi Yade has received a death order and actually launched a strong attack regardless of the casualties. Moreover, they have new siege equipment to join the siege. The siege equipment was brought over, our army had a lot of defensive pressure, and the first trench was almost filled by the enemy. The efficiency of the enemy was very high. It is estimated that it only takes 2 days and they can put a few The trenches and the horses were all filled, and then the moat and urn were left. “

The subordinate said.

Artik opened the mouth and said: “You should think of ways to reduce casualties and cause greater casualties to the enemy, while also slowing down the enemy’s progress.”

Several of the men were faceless. Obviously, this was not an easy task. They applied all the methods they could think of, but they still could not avoid casualties, because the siege soldiers had a large number of arrows. Cars and giant shields, which makes their attacks difficult to cause too many casualties for soldiers and horses outside the city.

“City Lord, the Great Tang artillery has great formidable power. If it can be put into use, it will inevitably cause greater casualties to the enemy, so let the Great Tang Artillery participate in the battle!”

A subordinate said.

Artik thought for a moment and shook his head: “Forget it, let the soldiers bear it first! Great Tang Artillery only has 5 artillery pieces, and the ammunition is not enough. In this case, it is too wasteful to use. Once the ammunition is exhausted , We do n’t have a weapon that will deter Ziyad, let ’s use it again when it ’s critical! ”

Obviously, Artick was reluctant to use the most powerful force. The number of Great Tang Gunner was too small. He was worried that after the Great Tang Artillery ’s ammunition was used up, there would be no more powerful weapons that could threaten Ziyad. When the time comes , Qi Yade can attack more crazily. In addition, he is very regretful. If he asked for more Artillery and ammunition from the Great Tang, it would be good if he could have 50 artillery, so do n’t worry so much. Of course, Li An Will not agree to give Artic 50 artillery, if the power of Artic is too strong, is it not in violation of the interests of Great Tang, neither party alone is in the fundamental interests of the Great Tang Empire.

“Urban Master, even if Great Tang Artillery is not allowed to participate in the battle, you can ask them about the defense experience. Perhaps they have a better way to defend the city, which can reduce casualties.”

A subordinate said.

Ziad’s satisfied nodded, opened the mouth and said: “This is a good idea. You can always communicate with the Great Tang soldiers and ask them about good ways to defend the city.”

“Yes, my subordinates will prepare.”

The subordinate responded.

In fact, what Great Tang can do to help them has already been helped, and the ways to think about it are almost the same. If it was not for the help of the Great Tang Empire, how could they have such a huge fortification, all this is the Great Tang Empire Credit.

Of course, there are no problems in proposing solutions based on the actual situation. Great Tang soldiers can fully propose solutions to the problems based on the actual casualties.

In addition to the severe li outside the city, Ziyad is still struggling to watch the battle. This battle is his last attack on Maiya City. Whether it is successful or not, he will not fight for the second time because the pressure of logistics supply is too great. This battle must have suffered heavy casualties. After the battle, he will not continue to execute the siege orders even if he is disobeying, at worst.

“General, our army attacked all morning and changed 3 people. The casualties were almost 2000. The casualties were too large, and the first trench failed to break through, and the progress was too slow, really. Do you nibble step by step? “

The subordinate said.

Qi Yade opened the mouth and said: “The casualties are only 2000, half of them are nearby 100 surnames, the real casualties are up to 1000, and this General requires a step-by-step advance in order to fight steadily and reduce the casualties of our generals, If the trenches on the offensive road cannot be flattened, this will cause great difficulty to the Armed Forces attack. You must level these trenches before you can attack further. You must be clear that the enemy ’s defenses are tight. The adventure crosses the trench, even if it rushes under the city wall, it will soon be wiped out. When Al City attacked, our casualties were very large. Therefore, even if this time is a waste of more time, we have to play steadily and use the most. The equipment and the smallest casualties levelled all the obstacles on the offensive road step by step, and eventually broke the city in one fell swoop. “

Obviously, this strategy is already the best way Ziyad can think of. He is not good at siege generals. The Khorasan cavalry is good at field operations. Siege is always the last option, but their enemies are a pity. Artik just could n’t hide out of the city, and they were subject to the problem of food and grass, and they simply could n’t consume the other party. Power, you can always grab ordinary old 100 surnames from the surroundings and force these old 100 surnames to participate in siege operations, thereby further reducing the loss of your own soldiers and horses and reducing the loss to a minimum level.

Because there is a stone mountain not far from the city, from which a large number of stones can be mined, and as long as the supply of stones is constant, the violent siege can continue. This is no pressure.

In order to cause greater losses to the defending soldiers and horses, some crossbowmen held shields, ventured across the first trench, entered the 2nd trench, and envied these trenches, directly throwing arrows at the city head because of the distance Closer, so the effect of the attack will be better. Of course, because they are closer, they are more easily attacked, so the pros and cons are the same.

However, what made the defensive soldiers more depressed was that the trenches they dug so hard had become a natural barrier for the enemy crossbowmen, which they did not want to see.

There are more than 2 crossbowmen who venture into the 100nd trench, while there are only more than 3 crossbowmen who enter the 20rd trench. They enter different positions, which greatly increases the pressure on the defensive soldiers and horses. Some soldiers are aiming at the 2nd trench. When the enemy army soldier was suddenly shot by the bow and crossbow flying in the first trench, there were even many killed.

Women ’s walls and trenches can protect the soldier ’s body, but the soldier ’s arm and head cannot be protected, because when shooting the enemy, the head must be exposed, the neck and arm are also outside, and these parts It is easy to be attacked. Most of the casualties are shot at these parts, and the head and neck are particularly fragile. Once shot, it is seriously injured and may even cause death.

The most vulnerable part of the soldier ’s body must be exposed during the battle. This is indeed very frustrating, and not at all what a good solution ca n’t let the soldier shoot blindly! If it is a blind shot, the probability of hitting the enemy is too small, so it is a waste of arrows.

If all the crossbowmen go into hiding and do not shoot at the siege horses, their own side will fall into a passive beating situation, and the soldiers on the city wall can only withstand the stone attacks from time to time.

A more serious situation is that if the defending party stops the attack, the soldiers outside the city can launch the attack very calmly, the attack speed will be much faster, and the crossbowmen outside the city without finding the enemy, is They will not attack indiscriminately. They will build a cloud ladder across the moat and launch an attack on the city wall. Once the enemy is attacked on the head of the city, it will be too late to fight back.

Therefore, even if they suffer a lot of casualties, the defenders must take the risk of counterattack and sacrifice their lives. At the same time, they will also cause huge damage to the attacking enemy forces.

At the north gate, the Great Tang soldiers quickly appeared. They did not come to fight, but to observe the situation. They are elite with rich combat experience, they have a very good understanding of the battlefield, and have a very strong The defensive strength of the city is only because they are soldiers of the Great Tang. Therefore, Altick will not be able to trust his troops to be commanded by outsiders. He must control his troops firmly. This is the capital of his life. And what the Great Tang generals can do is only to give them advice. If they think it is feasible, they will naturally comply, and if they think it is not possible, then they will have to fail to comply.

Anyway, it ’s not their own city. Great Tang soldiers do n’t need to argue with them. Even if the city really falls, Qi Yade, who has entered the city, will not dare to kill Great Tang soldiers. This is what Qi Yade dare not do.

“You count the casualties and see why they are mostly injured, especially the seriously injured and killed soldiers. Where are they all injured? Only by ruling these can we take targeted measures.”

Young Tang Tang asked.

Soon, a rough statistic data came out. The injured soldiers had nothing common with each other, some were stoned to death, others were shot and killed by enemy bows and arrows, among them, were Almost all those who hit the head were seriously injured and killed, while those who hit the arm and arm were all slightly injured, and the arrows were shot in the face and neck. All are minor injuries.

With this data, we can give targeted suggestions for improvement. Since severely injured and killed soldiers are both head and neck problems, then only the head and neck, and the face need to be protected. Can reduce a lot, especially the death rate can be greatly reduced.

“These soldiers only have hats on their heads. How can this thing protect their heads, why not equip them with helmets, and if they have helmets, many soldiers will not die.”

Little Tang said.

“We have a limited number of helmets. Only the elite soldiers in the city have helmets, and the rest of the troops are not equipped.”

Said a general.
