"Daddy, why do you want to break up the soldiers into skirmishers? Didn't you say that only concentrated infantry could compete with cavalry? Xiao Yunao asked a little puzzled.

"The use of skirmishers was based on the possession of strong fortresses and adequate fortifications. For example, if you are defending a city, if you have all the soldiers piled up at the top of the city. Then if the enemy is several times larger than yours, they will take turns attacking you. Your soldiers can fight for a day or two. But what happens after a long time?

You'll have to divide your soldiers into parts and take turns to fight. This will ensure that they always have physical strength and morale! In addition, the skirmish line can effectively evade the blow of enemy fire. We have gunpowder crossbows, but others don't.

This situation must be temporary, and the future war will be a war of blood and fire. When gunpowder becomes more widespread, the war will become even bloodier and more brutal. At that time, the city wall will no longer exist, and there is no chance that anyone who will be able to survive a dozen feet down from a cannonball. ”

Yun Xiao babbled, completely caught in the cruelty of modern warfare. The problem is that he forgot, this is the big man. No one has invented this thing yet.

"Daddy, what the hell?" Xiao Yunao finally couldn't stand it, and asked Yunxiao like a curious baby.

"Uh...... Our gunpowder crossbow can be understood as a kind of cannon. But the kind of cannon that Daddy said is much more powerful, and it can open mountains and crack rocks. ”

Yun Ao nodded confusedly, and various terrible situations kept flashing in his mind. Then they were collectively called cannons.

"Not to mention this, this thing is still far away. Teach you how to defend the city again for your father, this iron wolf tooth ......! ”

Zhu Zhu and Xinding threw down with iron wolf fangs, and sharp thorns ruthlessly slashed through the body of the Donghu people. The skins could not stop the spikes, and those who were hit all wailed and fell down the ladder.

"Keep your head down, bend down if you don't want to fucking die. This is not the time to fill up the big one! The bolt cursed loudly at Xinding. But there is no ambiguity in the hand. Pick up a bumper bar and stab it with a kick. He overturned the empty ladder down.

The new Ding was stunned by the bolt pillar, and turned around. A stone whistled and flew over, and "when" the stone hit the iron helmet, the stone chips flew wildly. The new Ding didn't say a word, and then covered his head and fell to the ground. Blood ran down his mouth and nose. A gushing of large shares.

"Hey! It's another one! "The bolt doesn't have time to worry about how to defend Xinding's defense zone.

"An army must not suffer more than a third of its casualties, and more than a third of the army must be replaced and recuperated. The veteran is the most precious thing in the army, as long as there is a qualified captain, he can send out many soldiers in a short time, like yeast. Yun Xiao told Yun Ao with a solemn face about the role of veterans.

"There are veterans in Donghu! Batu They have trained these people for many years, and these people are also very hard, why does Daddy always look down on Donghu's iron horse? Xiao Yunao asked with a wink.

"A real veteran is a soldier who has killed people on the battlefield and seen blood. These people are strong-willed. Exceptional skills. Can live and die with it without fear of danger, such veterans are the mainstay of the army. Even if an army loses more than half of the battle, as long as these veterans are present, it can support the defensive line. ”

Seeing that Xinding's defense line was leaking, the bolt pillar hurriedly picked up his knife and pounced. A Xianbei sergeant who had just stepped forward had already rushed up the city wall, and this guy looked like an iron tower. I'm afraid that the mace in his hand is fifty or sixty pounds, and this guy is like a matchstick in his hand.

I didn't have time to pick up the spear, so I raised my hand and gave this guy a strong crossbow. At such a close distance, those who can dodge the iron-tired crossbow are superhumans. The bolt hit the strong man in the chest. Powerful bolts pierced through his muscles and bones. Sharp arrows, peeking through from behind.

Take advantage of the Xianbei sergeant's moment. The saber of the bolt stabbed the strong man in the stomach. As soon as everything is pulled, the stomach is dissected. The water in the stomach flowed out with a bang.

The bolt pillar didn't dare to slack off, and slammed into the Xianbei person with his body together. The Xianbei strong man who was seriously injured couldn't hold on any longer, and was knocked to the ground by the bolt, and his limbs kept twitching.

A Xianbei sergeant who had just climbed up was so frightened that he turned around and left. But he forgot. At this time, I was on top of the ladder. There are people below, how can they let him go down? This guy was in a hurry, and as soon as he let go, he jumped off the ladder.

The bolt took advantage of this opportunity to pick up the batter and knock over the ladder. Before he could catch his breath, he began to shake the handle of the iron-tire crossbow vigorously.

"The defense of the city must first depend on the grain and grass in your city. It seems that Zhangye has enough food. In a city where there is a water supply from the bottom, it is not easy to besiege and die. But if you don't have much food in your hands, don't hold on to a fortified city. For the enemy does not need to do anything but besiege you until you starve to death. The stronger the city defenses, the more likely it is that the enemy will take a siege.

If you break through, be sure to break through before the enemy is encircled. At the latest, it was necessary to break through the siege when the enemy army was just besieging the city. Moreover, the process of breaking out of the siege must be carried out with all efforts, if the enemy army digs a trench outside the city to defend it. At that time, even if you wanted to break through, I was afraid that you would not be able to get out. ”

Yun Xiao remembered that he had besieged his opponent in the city countless times. Then dig a trench outside the city and defend it, so that the opponent can't come up with it. If you want to keep it, you are waiting for death. This kind of ordeal can also bring down a heroic and warlike army.

"Daddy, I heard you're overseas. Did 300,000 people starve to death in World War I and use this strategy? ”

"At that time, Canghu's son Xiaohu was killed by those people. Daddy was angry and did such a cruel thing. You don't want to learn from Daddy, if the enemy is willing to surrender sincerely. You can give them a way to live, maybe it's because Daddy has done too much to kill. So God is punishing Daddy, your ...... Forget it, you're still young. Remember one sentence, killing and surrendering is ominous, and treat those who sincerely surrender, and you must not kill in vain. ”

"Then why did the second brother subdue those traitors, and my father wanted to kill them? Because they didn't really surrender? ”

"That's right, the bad luck is bald, the formation is not scattered, and the vitality is not lost. But surrender to your second brother, this is not their style. Moreover, there were no people who suffered the blow. Once they surrender to you, they can't be prevented from rebelling. Daddy killed them all for the sake of your second brother's future. Remember, people who haven't been hit hard by you. I won't really surrender to you. ”

"Got it, Daddy!"

Zheng Bin has two big heads, and the hateful Xianbei people are so fierce. Don't even give yourself time to prepare, and the siege battles are extremely fierce. It seems that there are still Xianbei people rushing out of the forest, and they will continue like this. It won't take long, just hold on for another seven or eight days. And he had no soldiers in his hands to go up to the wall.

There were only 5,000 people in the city who could pick up arms, but I didn't expect that in just five days, they would lose 30% of the battle. It's all those Udo who are in trouble, why don't you have more arrows in reserve. How could 200,000 arrows be destroyed so quickly?

There wasn't much food in the city, enough to eat for two months. But the problem is that the burning can't last for two months, and the most important thing to rely on the forest is wood. No one has the habit of storing a lot of firewood and charcoal, so it's okay to say on weekdays. The problem is that now there are Xianbei people everywhere outside the city, how can they go outside the city to cut firewood. If this continues, everyone will have to start eating raw rice in less than half a month.

Breakthrough! Must break through! Otherwise, everyone will have to explain here. Zheng Bin looked at the dense Xianbei army outside the city. Reluctant to make a decision! The corpses of the Xianbei people were already stacked high, and if they continued like this, Xianbei would be able to gnaw through the city wall even if they gnawed with their teeth.

"The order was given, and after nightfall the whole army broke through to the south. All the supplies are loaded into trucks, and those that can't be loaded are burned. You can't leave a grain of food, a piece of armor, and a blade for the Xianbei people! ”

"Master Bin, but the brothers' possessions are here. If you abandon the city and go, I'm afraid the brothers are unwilling! One of the guards dissuaded.

"When the hell is this, money or death. The money is gone, and I will show that the marquis will naturally have money and food to send down for you to feed your family. The family business is gone, let's rest and come back to earn it. As long as there are people, are you still afraid that you will not have a family business? ”

Zheng Bin looked at these guys angrily, they were all rough blanks. No wonder Hou Ye can't pull out the future from among them, and he can't become a qualified general without studying.

Just when Zheng Bin was angry, news suddenly came from ahead. said that the Xianbei people sent a messenger, and said that they wanted to surrender.

"Surrender?" Zheng Bin is puzzled, Lao Tzu is going to run away. The Xianbei people who have the advantage actually want to surrender? Zheng Bin hurriedly led the guards up to the city wall, and watched the Xianbei envoy standing a stone's throw away from the city wall. In his hand he was holding a wooden stick with a white cloth tied to it. Hold it in your hand and shake it constantly.

"These bastards also know how to fly the white flag and pull him up. Look at what this bastard has to say, everyone don't let up. Beware of the Xianbei people taking advantage of our unpreparedness to sneak attack. "Zheng Bin is not Yunyan, he doesn't expect these fierce Xianbei people to surrender.

The basket was lowered along the wall, and the Xianbei messenger stepped over the pile of corpses. Sitting in a basket, he was hoisted to the city wall.

"Honorable general, I am the messenger of the Xianbei Tuoba Tao. After several days of fierce fighting, Lord Tuoba Tao greatly admired the combat effectiveness of your army. specially filmed the villain to discuss the surrender with the general. Our army is willing to surrender to the general for the general to drive. I only hope that the general will bring us, the poor people, together under the protection of your powerful wings. ”

The messenger spoke pitifully, from a warrior who is good at war. To the most humble capitulators, there is no need to find a phone booth or change clothes. Just turn around.

"Kill him and throw his head down." Zheng Bin patiently listened to his ramblings, turned around and said to the guards behind him.

The head of the Xianbei envoy was thrown off the wall, and a new offensive began.

"You are pigs, and you are really a pig. Tou Cheng, are you as stupid as you are? (To be continued......)
