Chapter 11: Enemy Attack

The losses of the Yulin guards were very heavy, and less than three hundred of the eight hundred people were not injured. More than 300 were seriously injured, and as many as 200 hung up.

Yun Xiao has always had the habit of inspecting corpses, and now the Yun family's generals will also learn from him. The generals also gradually understood the meaning of corpses that could speak.

"Yu Linwei has killed so many people, mostly because his head has been hit with a stone with a sharpened edge. Not even fifty people died in the actual battle. ”

While eating breakfast, Canghu said while eating, without any scruples about the "Princess Nangong" who was eating not far away.

"It's probably caused by this thing, I see those guys who were shot by goshawks have this thing in their hands. I tried it, but I couldn't figure out how. ”

Dai Yu took out a strange thing, and the generals were curious to pass it on. Yun Xiao also glanced at it, he didn't expect this thing to have it so early.

Seeing that the generals didn't know the purpose of this thing, Yun Xiao took it and said, "This thing is called Wuduo, which is made of yak hair and twisted into thick wool, and then woven into braids. There is a ring with a diameter of three inches at the upper end of the braid, and the ring is put on the middle finger when used, and a palm-sized oval 'black ladder' is woven in the middle, which is used to put stones and clods of soil, and the end is made of wool as a whip.

If you want to drive cattle and sheep, pinch the two ends of Wuduo with your hands, put stones or clods of soil in the 'Wuti', lift the whip and swing it, and then let go of one end, and the stones will fly to dozens of zhang or even one or two hundred zhang away, so that the head animal changes direction. Herdsmen use Wuduo's skills, and some people can hit a distance of more than 100 zhang, and they can hit 100 shots. So Udo was used not only to drive cattle, but also to drive away wild beasts. ”

Yun Xiao said that he was also doing a demonstration, playing this thing when leading a group in Tibet. Although it is not far from being accurate, there is no problem in demonstrating how to use it.

A fist-sized stone was thrown far away by Yun Xiao and landed on the ground fifty or sixty paces away. The generals grew their mouths and looked at Hou Ye's little arms and thin legs. No one thought he could throw a stone that far.

"Centrifugal force is used here, this centrifugal force...... You don't understand it. It's a profound science. "Yun Xiao doesn't want to popularize the knowledge of mechanics to his killers all the time.

Tian Wei lay next to the carriage and slept like a pig. His guards covered him with a large piece of felt cloth, presumably the original tent cloth. Yun Xiao was worried that this thing would be crushed to death.

"Master Hou, we have to get out of here quickly. The people of Yulin were wounded. If you don't find them a warm place. These people all have to die. ”

Dai Yu looked at the cart and lowered the Yulin guards who kept moaning. I can't help but feel compassion in my heart. Yesterday he was the proud son of heaven, and today he has become like this.

"Yes, we should hurry into Wuwei City. It's so fucking uncomfortable for the enemy in the dark night, and you can't see the power of the bow and crossbow. In hand-to-hand combat, injuries are inevitable. It's always overcast, damn it. There was not a trace of moonshine. ”

The tiger also complained. Yesterday's sortie hung up more than a dozen of his men. There were also more than thirty wounded, all of whom were caused by damn hand-to-hand combat. Now the people of the Yun family like to hurt people with bows and crossbows, and as long as they are not forced to do so, no one wants to fall into a tragic hand-to-hand fight.

Yun Xiao kicked Tian Wei. The thing just snorted like an old sow. The helpless Yun Xiao grabbed a handful of snow and wiped it on Tian Wei's face without a head. Tian Wei's guards next to him tried to dissuade him but didn't dare, and Tian Wei was finally woken up by Yun Xiao.

"Inform the kitchen to put more spicy seeds and more canned food on the lower noodles. Write more, and give some points to the feather forests. Send someone to inform the Donghu people that we are going to set off, and if they want to leave, they will follow. Otherwise, if we are caught and eaten by the Qiang people, we don't care. ”

Yun Xiao looked at the camp of the Donghu people not far away, and the people who fled last night had gradually run back. Because they fled at the first time, the Qiang lost the battle, and they did not have time to plunder their goods, but did not suffer any losses.

Tian Wei's headache was about to explode, and he opened his mouth and kept spitting. Even the jaundice water was spit out, and the guards persuaded him to eat a small half bowl of noodles. I just ate it, and I vomited it all again. It seems that this product is some alcoholism.

Fortunately, the recent consumption has been great. Yun Xiao let the injured Yulin get into the vacated cart, and sent someone to help Yulin gesture to the original camp.

It was already past noon when I started on the road, and it was still very overcast. It is estimated that a violent snowstorm is brewing. Yun Xiao regretted that he had delayed a morning, so he had to urge everyone to speed up the march.

No less than three waves of scouts were sent from each direction of the team, but fortunately, although it was cloudy during the day, the line of sight was still okay. It's much stronger than at night.

To Yunxiao's surprise, there were no Qiang people to disturb him all day. Maybe it was the combat power of Yun's hometown that scared them, and yesterday's night of fierce fighting. No less than 3,000 Qiang people were killed, and Yun Xiao felt scared after dawn. The front of the triangular nail array was almost covered with corpses, no wonder these people could rush from inside later. It turned out that they all stepped on the corpses of their own people.

Deadly arrows were stuck in everyone's body, and the worst one had three arrows in his bare head. At a distance of 100 paces, the accuracy of the iron-tired crossbow is comparable to that of a rifle, and the flight trajectory of the crossbow is almost a straight line, and the influence of the wind is very limited.

These poor Qiang people didn't even have a piece of iron on them, and they still couldn't get close to the Yunjia Yong's military formation after paying such heavy casualties.

Yun Xiao looked at the mountains of corpses that were about to die of sorrow, and he paid for it. The loss is huge, not to mention the triangular nails, even the arrows have been wasted a lot. Most of the arrows of the bow and arrow can still be used when they are brought back, but it is basically difficult to use the bottom edge of the crossbow arrow through the wire rope to eject it.

The triangular nails were densely pierced into the body of the dead man, and the goshawk led the people to pull it out all morning, but only seventy percent of it was recovered. Yun Xiao decided to have time to talk to King Qiang, and asked him to compensate for his losses. People can't be killed in vain, and they need to ask King Qiang to pay some money. Yes, that's it.

The march was unusually calm, so calm that Yun Xiao was a little uncomfortable. Perhaps this is the difference between the Qiang and the Huns, if the Huns attack themselves. Now there will definitely be a lot of people to attack and disturb, making this team more and more tired. Wait until you are extremely tired, and then give yourself a fatal blow.

Yun Xiao kept holding the compass to revise the marching route, and the thing in his hand was definitely a unique product now. The old guys from Lanxiang Technical School begged Yun Xiao for a long time, but Yun Xiao didn't let them touch their compass.

This thing is going to be used to save lives in the future, and Yun Xiao doesn't think that these old guys can make such a sophisticated instrument. However, the old guys still found a magnet and made some compasses with the help of Yun Xiao. Now the Yun family's generals have one in their hands, but the accuracy is just a little worse.

The dark clouds in the sky kept rolling, as if a blizzard was coming. Yun Xiao urged the team to step up, and according to his calculations, they could enter Wuwei City in three or four hours at most. Great human beings invented the constructive thing of the city. It allows people to hide from wild beasts, shelter from the wind and rain, and naturally from the terrible blizzard.

The outline of Wuwei City could already be seen in the distance, and everyone's hearts were relieved. Excitedly, he quickened his pace and walked towards the city, as long as he entered the city, the damn blizzard would no longer be a threat.

Suddenly there was a thunderclap in the sky, followed by several thunderbolts one after another. Yun Xiao and his generals looked at the thunder in the sky in shock, and the faint green smoke had been blown away by the strong wind. However, from the continuous flashes of light, Yun Xiao still saw the direction of the enemy's attack.

"In the southwest, there are more than 5,000 people. What should Hou Ye do? ”

Canghu looked at the increasingly dense flashes of light in the sky, and his face was a little ugly. After all, it's more than 5,000 people, not 5,000 pigs, and even 5,000 pigs can tire you half to death.

Yun Xiao looked at Wuwei City in the distance, and it only took an hour to reach it.

"Let Yulin and the Donghu people go first, and let's go meet those Qiang people. Cangxiong, you take 300 people to protect the baggage to Wuwei. Canghu, hand out grenades to everyone. Two per person. ”

"No"

It seems that Yun Xiao was really in a hurry this time, and even used a grenade. A large cart was quickly opened, and the team was scrambling to distribute grenades.

Yun Xiao scattered the scouts ten miles away this time, after the grenades were distributed. Yun Xiao rushed towards those Qiang people with 1,700 iron horses. The enemy had more troops than their own, and they could not be given time to divide their forces to pursue the baggage battalion. You must entangle them at the first time, otherwise they will attack the baggage camp, and the consequences will be unimaginable.

After running for a short time, I saw a snowy mist on the horizon. Yun Xiao knew that it was the remnant snow raised by the horses' hooves, and suddenly there was a rolling muffled thunder between the dim heaven and earth. Yun Xiao ordered the villagers to speed up, and the cavalry on both sides were getting closer and closer in the movement, and they were about to collide with each other.

Yunxiao uses a thin one-line formation, so that you can strive for a wide front as much as possible. This is very advantageous for an army like Yun Xiao with a bow and crossbow equipped with super strength.

At five hundred paces, the sound of the crossbow strings of the iron-tired crossbow rang out. However, the cavalry had no chance to wind the iron-tired crossbow, and after firing a round, the villagers hung the iron-tired crossbow together. Normally, they would pick up their bows and arrows and shoot. But this time, they have something even better.

The distance was already a hundred paces, and Yun Xiao could even hear the howling voice of the Qiang people.

The townsfolk took out their grenades and slashed them in the saddle. The gunpowder twist began to squeak and spark, and then the horse's momentum was filled with their legs between the horse's belly and their feet on the stirrups. With a twist and a wave of his arms, he threw the grenade.

"Boom, boom." The ranks of the Qiang cavalry rang out, and orange-red flames flickered continuously. One by one, the Qiang were engulfed in flames and torn to pieces. (To be continued......)
