Chapter 419: : Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers

   Xie Shi is like many young boys who have not suffered any setbacks since childhood and have excellent quality of life. He said that he was a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers, or that he did not know the heights of the sky and the earth. He was really not ashamed of the Han army at all. ??

   has successfully predicted that the Han army will come to board 6, even guessing the location of the Han army boarding 6, to say that Xie Shi should be in a stage of self-confidence.

During the day, the failure of preventing the Han army from boarding 6 did not make Xie Shi’s self-confidence suffer. That is because the Han army he had boarded 6 was only 10,000, and the regular army and family private soldiers he brought together were close. Sixteen thousand, although it was a loss of nearly a thousand combat power, the number of the Jin army was still five thousand more than that of the Han army.

"We still have the right place and harmony with people!" Xie Shi sneered when facing his lieutenant Xie Pingzhan to retreat back to the city of Xinsi: "We have to retreat before we fight against our own morale. It is a waste of the generals. The chance of driving down the river is more than a pity!"

The Han army led by    Huanwen boarded 6 from the Yangtze River, because there was no ferry, it was the way of boarding 6 for big boats and small boats.

  Hanjun has been building a ferry after boarding 6. It will definitely not be something that can be built overnight without a transition, especially if there is definitely more than one ferry needed, so it must be spent at least three or four days?

   Xie Ping is not a blood relative of the Xie family, just like many family members and families have the kind of family-born children who have served for generations, he is the best kind of family-born child among the Xie family's family members.

After   6, the Han army did not build a barracks. Instead, they set up some wooden fences and defensive forces at the forefront. Most of the Han army stayed on the banks of the soft soil.

   The Jin army set up a camp early in the area about five miles in the river beach. They arranged fortifications in advance. Xie Shi felt that he could drive the Han army back down the river to feed the fish.

   When the Han army wanted to build a ferry, naturally they needed to find trees for felling, but they found that the slightly thicker trees near the river beach had been cleared early, and they needed to go deep inside 6 if they wanted to fell trees.

"It's interesting." With a smile on his face, Huan Wen said to Yuan Qiao: "Xie's family inheritance has a lot of military affairs. The line of Xie An and Xie Shi was cultivated as military commanders. It seems that Xie Shi also Got some true stories."

   The Yangtze River is a very long water system. It can be said that except for some places where the two banks are mountainous, the rest can basically be used as 6 points. The difference is that large ships can directly dock or need to use small boats to board 6 in batches.

"Xie Shi guessed that the Han army's 6 o'clock is still there to follow. After all, there are only a few cities along the Yangtze River in the land of the three counties, and the number of cities attacked by the Han army is even less." Yuan Qiao is also the same. Some praise for Xie Shi, and said: "Guess right to board 6 o'clock and arrange it in advance, it is indeed a bit of a talent."

   Yuan Qiao and Huan Wen didn’t feel any pressure either. The war is fought with hard power. In many cases, what can be done if you guess it right, it just creates some trouble for the attacker. The real battle is the actual combat power of the two armies. Both of them came from the Jin Army system, and knew how much combat power the Jin Army had, and whether they had any expectations for the combat power of the family private soldiers.

   There are only four gatekeepers south of the Yangtze River, and there are countless families. If you really want to say that they can fight and win battles, there are not many. The family private soldiers of the Yu family should be in the first sequence, and even better than the regular Jin army. For example, the Xie family and the Huan family can only be said to be in the second sequence. The Wang family and the regular Jin army are not behind. It is the third sequence, and the remaining private soldiers of each family are ranked last.

"Warhorses can swim. Don't get a batch of them ashore directly from the ferry." Huan Wen felt that he needed to teach the little guy a lesson: "After the number is 3,000, he will directly assault the weak spots of the enemy army to attract the Jin army out of the village. After fighting, the infantry moved forward."

   Yuan Qiao just nodded, he just wanted to make a similar suggestion.

   There is plenty of light during the day, and the place where the Jin army camps also has a geographical advantage. Soon there will be movements on the river surface.

   The cavalry has always been the shortcoming of the Jin army. That is not the reason of geographical location. After all, the Chu State in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was also a southern country, but why could Chu become a country of ten thousand times? Facts have proved that the South is not incapable of cultivating war horses. The gap is that the following dynasties based on the South failed to find the right way.

   Xie Shi is a dignified disciple. The family private soldiers who go out to serve as generals will not talk about whether they are elite or not, but the equipment is definitely good. The infantry accounted for the vast majority of his 15,000 people, but there were close to 1,400 cavalry. According to the classification of equipment, they were considered assault cavalry.

"The surface of the river beach is soft and not suitable for horse-riding." Xie Shi found that there were a large group of horses on the river and immediately knew what the Han army wanted to do. He confidently said to Xie Ping: "The Han army will indeed use the advantage of the cavalry to seek a breakthrough, but he doesn't know. Another strategy of this general has been achieved."

   The small court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty lost the Central Plains. Some inheritances did not disappear because of the loss of land, such as the existence of a strong crossbow, and even a kind of bed crossbow called the Eight Jun crossbow. Xie Shi held sixty eight-jungle crossbows in his hand, and the number of Guoyu Chu Bao actually exceeded three hundred, but Li Mai did not have one.

The Eight Horses Crossbow refers to a bed crossbow that requires eight horses to pull the string tension. It is an absolute sharp weapon of the Jin army. It is generally used as a fixed city guard or loaded with a warship. The crossbow is too large to transport.

   The Han army is arranging cavalry. A small number of men and horses are equipped with plate armor, and most of them are light cavalry with knights wearing leather armor.

   After Xie Shi gave the order, the Jin army began to fiddle with the Taibajun crossbow, which was operated by twelve Jin sergeants. They were pushed or pulled to the back where Xie Shi thought the Han army would attack.

In addition to arranging eight crossbows, Xie Shi also gathered all the cavalry on hand, and even mobilized a thousand heavy infantry, two thousand crossbowmen and some necessary light infantry, intending to give the Han army a head start. .

  While both sides are preparing for war, the first scouts of the two armies have been fighting fiercely and frequently. Of course, the Han army scouts wanted to find out the details of the Jin army, and the Jin army scouts acted as a blocker. The blood from both sides was spilled everywhere.

  The real opening of the battle was when the Han army organized three thousand cavalrymen. They were divided into three teams to become a prominent trident formation, followed by four thousand various infantrymen.

Xie Shixian the Han army did not concentrate on one breakthrough and said to Xie Ping disappointedly: "It seems that the weak area that would have been deliberately exposed has not become the main breakthrough point for the Han army. The Eight Crossbow can only be aimed at one part of the Han army. "

The soil on the river beach is indeed soft, and every step of the horse's hoof will sink into about half a foot or even deeper. If you want to move quickly, you can only reach the area with relatively hard soil. This caused the three thousand Han army to move slightly slowly, which can give The Jin army has enough time to dispatch troops.

   "That kid still lacks experience." Huan Wen looked at the direction of the Jin army. In some areas, there would be some very abrupt bushes: "I just didn't lack the courage, but actually used the Eight Crossbow in the field."

   Seriously, whether it was Huan Wen or Yuan Qiao, how could they forget that the Jin army had a sharp crossbow.

   Xie Shi was already standing on the towering nest cart, seeing the Han cavalry advancing slowly, his face showed a big smile. He was wondering whether he should prepare the rest of the troops to attack, wait for the defeat of the Han cavalry, and then rush out from the barracks, directly driving the unsteady Han troops down the river.

Xie Ping, who was also standing on the nest cart, had troubles on his face. He is different from Xie Shi, who is not afraid of tigers when he was born with a calf. It is clear that the Han army under the prestigious name may not be easy to deal with, and it is unrealistic to drive or force it into the river in one fell swoop.

"Little master, the fleet of the Han army is still on the river." Xie Ping reminded more than once, seeing the battle start, and persuading again: "Even if it can defeat the Han army trying to break into the inner 6th, our troops chase Han The long-range attack of military warships can reach a distance, I'm afraid..."

"Hugh will mess up our military's mind again." Of course, Xie Shi did not forget the powerful long-range attack capability of the Han fleet. He resolutely said: "Once the army is defeated and attacked by the Han army, the morale of our army will surely be boosted. , It's the time to fight hard with your life."

As a trap set by Xie Shi, the cavalry of the Han army will soon arrive within the range of the Bajun Crossbow. When they approached nearly three hundred paces, a series of desolate horns sounded, and then two at first. The cavalry on the side dispersed to the outside, and the leading cavalry kicked up the horse's belly or slapped the horse's ass.

"The range of the eight-jun crossbow is not consistent, and the farthest can reach two hundred and fifty steps." Huan Wen is observing the Jin army with a monocular in his hand. He has already seen the eight-jun that was originally covered with grass or branches and leaves. The crossbow reveals its huge body: "There should be about fifty units. Each one shoots three long stalks, and about two hundred breaths can be shot once."

Of course, Yuan Qiao knew the relevant data of the Eight Jun Crossbow. He put down the monoculars in his hand, turned and looked at the river beach area, and said: "This terrain is too crowded for our army. The terrain should be expanded before it gets dark."

"Uncle Yan is too cautious." Huan Wen also put down the scopes, rubbing the beard of his chin as if itching, and said a little sternly: "Since the war is going on, it is natural to defeat that kid's troops as the goal. "

  "..." Yuan Qiao was a little surprised. They just arrived, OK? The whole army has been on a boat for nearly a month, and the horses have not yet adapted to the 6th place. He can't help but frown, "Will it be too risky?"

  桓 warmly smiled without saying a word. He felt that Yuan Qiao was sometimes overly cautious. The Jin army had bed crossbows and the Han army had crossbows. The cavalry sent up was to attract Xie Shi's full attention to cover those crossbows hidden in the advancing infantry.

   In front, the eight-jun crossbows showing their true colors are already shooting. Every time they shoot, they will make a loud bowstring movement. They are not the traditional giant crossbows, but a long stroke.

   The so-called 槊 is similar to a mixture of spears and rods, with a sharp and sharp flat spear head at the front end, and a round blunt tool with spikes at the back. This type of weapon was actually used by the powerful as infantry weapons at first, and later appeared on the cavalry. What must be explained is that if you dare to use the horse 槊 in horseback fighting, you will definitely be a strong fighter, and most people can't play this weapon.

The shooting of sixty eight-bull crossbows is like a drum being beaten. The sound comes and goes quickly. One hundred and eighty rods make a sharp sound in the sky. They are flying at the same time. , The crossbow arrows fired by the eight hundred strong crossbowmen also followed.

   No matter what long-range weapon it is, it will have a flying process from firing to hitting. The long-range weapon of the cold weapon era can not arrive in an instant like a firearm. After the Jin army shot the eight-jun crossbow and the strong crossbow, the Han army had about four breaths to adjust its position. In an instant, the cavalry and the cavalry were pulled as loosely as possible, but kept moving forward. situation.

   Long 槊 and crossbow arrows fell back and forth, causing people's groan and warhorse's wailing in an instant, and even the dull sound produced by weapons that did not hit the target and the ground.

"The enemy's combat experience...very sufficient!" Xie Shi was only disappointed at this moment, all because of the Jin army's long-range attack, the results were much less than expected~www.wuxiamtl.com~ He turned his head to look. To Xie Ping, ordered: "You personally command the infantry, and you must firmly resist the enemy!"

   Xie Ping said "No" in his mouth, and his face with his head lowered showed a more obvious worry. He was actually thinking:

The cavalry of the Han army did not directly assault as the generals of the Jin army, including Xie Shi, thought. Han army infantry at about ten paces.

Before Xie Shi, standing on the nest cart, all his attention was on the trident cavalry of the Han army. Although there are now Han army infantry approaching, his mind is in a subconsciously ignored state. He didn't hear a violent sound of "crushing" in his ears until he saw dense black spots popping up into the sky in the Han army's stride.

   "Raise the shield!" Xie Shi shouted subconsciously, and the next move was to continue shouting: "Cavalry dispatched!"

The equipment of the Jin army is definitely better than that of the Hu people by more than one grade. The soldiers of the Jin sergeant in the front line had already raised their shields to be covered by the rain of arrows when Xie Shi did not shout, and the shields on each side were still inlaid. The big guy with the iron skin is not something made entirely of wood or skin.

   The cavalry of the Jin army only sent out when they saw the flag signal on the nest cart. Of course, it was impossible for them to go up against the rain of arrows and attack from other directions.

   "What the **** is this?" Huan Wen looked dazed and asked Yuan Qiao, "They took the initiative to leave the camp?"

   Yuan Qiao said that he didn't understand what Xie Shi's command was, but he wanted to give up his fortification advantage. 8
