Chapter 1588 The Eight Immortals crossed the sea to show their abilities, and veterinarians also had to perform miraculous feats

Now that he has decided to face off head-on with the main force of the Jin Army of Wanyan Wushu, when he only discussed with his own henchmen and generals about the leader, the faces of the leaders all over the table were excited. has expressed his stance that his brother decided to fight, so the brothers only obeyed the order.

Among them, Han Shizhong patted his chest and said with a smile: "I fought like a hard battle, and I bumped into the Tartar army, but the opponent was nothing more than a death battle. ”

Except for Han Shizhong, although all the leaders present were eager to fight, they also knew very well that this battle with the main force of the Jin Army would be another difficult and tragic battle. The Jurchen tribes, who were already fierce and good at fighting, invaded the entire territory of the Liao Dynasty and captured almost all the good horses in the Liao army, and the Liao State originally used the iron as the name to make armor and iron armor to almost arm the Jurchen soldiers who overturned the Liao Dynasty behemoth with beast robes and bones to the teeth, and the battlefield was like an active fortress, and then there were two wings of crutches Ma Ceying, if they had to fight to the death, how many sons and daughters would die on the battlefield in the next series of wars?

Xiao Tang knew that he had fought fiercely with the Western Xia Iron Harrier Army before, and Liu Qi and other good generals who had just begun to emerge were equipped with brave foot soldiers mainly equipped with Pu knives to resist the crushing impact of the rolling heavy cavalry on the opposite side, and cut the enemy's horse legs to slow down the enemy's unstoppable momentum. What's more, the Jin army also has the abducted horse spirit cavalry to help with a roundabout flank attack, and only uses the heavy infantry troops such as the Modao battalion to spread out the formation, and it is difficult to use the tactics of the previous battle with the Xia army's heavy cavalry strong army.

In the official history, in the Yuncheng Victory and Shunchang Victory created by Yue Fei and Liu Qi respectively, in addition to the two famous anti-gold generals who commanded well, the three armies under their command bravely used their lives and other factors, there is also a very important prerequisite from the climate: scorching heat.

The Jurchen tribes, who have lived in the white mountains and black waters of the north for a long time, were not accustomed to the heat, and they were wearing heavy and impermeable heavy armor to rush and kill a few times under the scorching sun, even if they were resolute and resistant to war, they would inevitably be exhausted, but now it is only just past the cold season of spring, and the spring is full of spring and water and grass breed everywhere under the rule of Jingdong Road, and it is obvious that they cannot use the hot climate to drag down the elite heavy cavalry of the Jin army......

But it is precisely because it is now the season of spring when everything grows, and it also makes Xiao Tang think of another strategy that may be implemented.

"I know that most of the sons and daughters of your brothers are good men who are not afraid of danger and forget their lives, and now we must first achieve the great event of resisting gold, and then we must also plan for the origin and destiny of our brothers to do something great... Whether it is a general or a soldier, every brother's life is precious, but there is a good way to break the enemy, and we must reduce the casualties of our soldiers and horses as much as possible......"

Xiao Tang said in a long voice, and suddenly his words changed, and he said: "A cavalry unit with heavy armor and equipment will break the formation, what will it rely on the most?" ”

Many brothers present couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Xiao Tang say it, and the middle of the Breaking Formation Army's double whip Hu Yanzhuo practiced the command of heavy cavalry was his expert's ability, and immediately followed Xiao Tang's words and said: "It is a high-grade war horse that can bear heavy armor and has long strength, and can be used to repeatedly charge into battle." It's not just Tiefutu, but all the light and heavy armored horses driven by Jin Kou, I have also heard that most of the Jurchen Tartars rode good horses that grew up in extremely cold places, and they were also tributes to the Liao Dynasty every year. The armor and cavalry equipment alone weighs dozens of pounds, plus the weight of the strong and tall cavalry body, the heavy and thick horse armor, and the long ordnance weapons used in horse warfare...... Heavy cavalry war horses are less than two or three hundred pounds heavy, and they have to gallop back and forth, if they are not majestic and strong, how can they be able to withstand the weight of ten pounds for the sharp cavalry to drive freely? ”

"That's it, the plan I'm going to use is to use it on the horses that the Jinkou Heavy Cavalry must rely on."

Xiao Tang said in a long voice, and then said loudly: "Go and summon the two brothers Huangfuduan and Chang Boda to come and discuss." ”......

Not long after, when Huangfuduan and Chang Boda were ordered to enter the tent, Xiao Tang first asked the two of them about the cold and heat symptoms of the war horses and livestock in the cavalry during the expedition with the army, and Chang Boda immediately reported to Xiao Tang: "Since my brother waved his army to Hedong Road to return to the south, the epidemic disease in the army is indeed very rare, and the book contains that it has only been plagued once in Hedong, Jingdong and other places in the past for decades, but once it happens, it is like a tiger, like wind and fire, and it cannot be treated in time, and it will be crazy at the lightest. Fortunately, my grandfather taught me a cure, and I had to use strong wolf venom and five or six flavors of other poisonous herb formulas to fight poison with poison to be cured. ”

On the side, Huang Fuduan also echoed and said: "The Boda brothers have the true inheritance of their predecessors, and they have also taught me that I have benefited a lot, although there are still some horses that have not been cured, and now they are isolated from other horses, and the epidemic has been controlled. The rest of the diseased war horses were examined by me again, and the medicine was used for a long time, and it should be possible to diagnose and treat horse diseases and get rid of them. ”

The purple-haired Emperor Fu is good at being able to see horses, and is praised as an invincible heirloom artist, An Ji has been an outstanding veterinarian with divine power over the years, in the original book, he was the last to cast on Liangshan, but he was familiar with Zhang Qing, but he overtook most of the leaders in Liangshan among the hundred and eight generals to sit in the fifty-seventh place. It also shows that he is in charge of the horses specializing in medicine and beasts in the village, and his great contribution to maintaining the health and vigor of the Liangshan cavalry horses. And Xiao Tang was originally at the southern foot of Taihang Mountain when he was fighting against the iron dragonfly Niu Wenzhong, and Chang Shun, a master of medical horses, was named the Marquis of Guangchan for his meritorious service in diagnosing and treating the war horses of the Song army, and became the highest veterinarian in history to be awarded the title of knight, Xiao Tang also knew it......

However, Xiao Tang still remembers a very important information about the record of Chang Shun, a master of medical horses: during the Song and Jin Wars, the large-scale outbreak of ethnic symptoms among the war horses of the Song army was an epidemic cured by Chang Shun, which was recorded as a scabies infection, and it was a parasitic infectious disease.

Qiji Bian Que Changshun, who was originally in the Xiao family of the Daimyo Mansion and helped a lot in the matter of horse herding, although he was somewhat reluctant when he was half-pushed to Liangshan to be a ministry leader, but now he knows that Xiao Tang is planning to resist the great cause of the Tartars' foreign humiliation, and he is as happy to help as always. It's just that Chang Shun is old after all, so he still stays in Liangshan Dazhai, and the two ministry leaders who go out with the army to take care of the cavalry horses of the various departments are Huangfuduan and Chang Boda, the grandson of Chang Shun.

Chang Boda, who has now won the name of Xiao Bole, is a young man, but he has been helping in several horse husbandry supervisors under Xiao Tang's name for many years, and he has also been taught by Chang Shun the ancestral means of identifying and diagnosing the diseases of the six animals. During the period when Xiao Tang led the army to the east and west, the cavalry horses of the various departments were often infected by the epidemic, and this time the war horses equipped with the army were infected with rare ethnic diseases, Chang Boda saw the opportunity quickly, and the emperor saw that the epidemic disease that would soon break out on a large scale in the war horse herd could be controlled, and his best skills should be used, Chang Boda was also proud, and he felt that his waist could be straighter in front of his brothers.

However, Chang Boda, who was overjoyed and proud, and after listening to the praise and encouragement of Huangfu Duan, they saw Xiao Tang and asked meaningfully: "Since there are still some war horses infected with the epidemic that have not yet been cured, the two brothers also said that such a clan disease will be like a plague and a catastrophe, once it happens, if it is not treated in time, the war horses will be weak and hysterical, and then die...... In this season, the countryside is rich in forage, and although the two brothers can cure the disease by using medicinal needles against the various diseases of the horses, can they take advantage of the epidemic of sick horses to cause the clan to attack again? ”
