Jiang Fa was self-defeating, and his failure to persuade Meng Gulu to surrender only aroused resentment in Meng Gulu's heart. Combined with the arrangement of Meng Huo's official position by the Shu Han regime, Yunfeng immediately thought of the historical records that Zhuge Liang defeated Nanzhong and showed kindness and gentleness, which made the local people grateful.

It is possible that the whole process was filled with bloodshed and bloodshed.

However, he did not expect that a few good words could persuade the other party to come over. Putting aside the old grudges in history, Nanman helped Li Xiong, and Li Xiong must have paid a lot of benefits. No matter how crude Nanman is, he is not a fool, and there is no benefit.

things are impossible to do

Now that the talks have broken down, let’s start a fight

Meng Gulu had the purpose of demonstrating, while Yunfeng planned to see the combat power of the Tengjia soldiers and make plans for subsequent operations.

Taking advantage of the conversation time, both the trebuchets and bed crossbows entered the designated positions. The crossbow army was deployed in front of the formation. Yunfeng still fired with a thousand crossbowmen, and the rest were loaded with arrows. Behind the crossbow army, the wall and shield were built high and the support was long.

The spears stand in the middle, and the cavalry on both wings are Yao Yisheng's Qiang army. The Qiang army cavalry is not as good as the Liangzhou cavalry, so it is most suitable for charging into the battle.

To be honest, the number of 10,000 Qiang troops was indeed a bit small. He was reluctant to take the Liangzhou cavalry when charging into battle. However, Yunfeng felt embarrassed to ask Yao Gezhong for help. The entire Qiang tribe only had more than 20,000 warriors, so he could not take them away.

All your old savings are gone?

Meng Gulu looked at the Jin army, which was waiting two miles away, and cursed again: "You dare to come out to fight with our army? What? No one dares to come out? Are they all cowards?"

But no one paid attention to him. Yunfeng's army remained motionless and no one answered.

"Hahahahaha" Meng Gulu looked up to the sky and laughed wildly: "I never expected that no one would dare to come forward to fight against the Jin army. I am really laughing to death." Then he turned around and laughed loudly: "You think so, right?"

The barbarian soldiers behind him suddenly burst into wild laughter, taunts, boasts, and boasts one after another. Gradually, the voices became uniform and incredibly merged into a poem: "Jin Pig Jin Pig, fear me like a mouse,

You are so cowardly, and your face is like that of an elite soldier made of earth, vines, and armor. I am invincible in the world and can kill you and others as easily as butchering a pig..."

If ten thousand people chant a poem at the same time, what will be the effect?

The defenders at the head of Yangpingguan City all looked at each other and stared at each other for a long time. General Li Yue murmured: "Brother, how can this southern barbarian be so arrogant? Do you really think that the armor is made of tree vines?"

Can we win?"

Li Qi shook his head and said: "The Southern Barbarians are crude and they will forget everything when they are slightly proud. Aweng promised tens of millions of dollars and promised to marry his sister, but he said that victory is the only way. This Southern Barbarian leader really takes it seriously. If this battle fails,

I have nothing to say. If the Jin army is repulsed, we brothers can't let this man return to Jianning alive and marry his sister to the Nanman. Where will Aweng's face be put? Where will the royal dignity remain?"

Li Yue nodded: "Brother, don't worry, it will be easy to deal with such arrogant and arrogant people."

Although Yunfeng was scolded, he was not angry. Instead, he was like a garrison at the top of the city, with his eyes wide open and a look of disbelief on his face. Is this still a southern barbarian? Look at this literary talent, it is no less than

Jiangdong celebrities

The sergeants, on the other hand, had expressionless faces and looked coldly at the barbarians who were performing so hard.

There was tranquility at the head of the city, but the barbarian soldiers in the middle were noisy, forming a strong contrast.

Meng Gulu's face was full of shame at first, but he was ignored by others. He said that a slap could not make a sound. Soon his excitement passed and he suddenly felt bored. He immediately waved his hand to stop the scolding behind him and loudly ordered:

"Everyone, come on, let Jin Zhu, the other side, see how powerful we are."

In an instant, tens of thousands of green barbarian soldiers dispersed from their formation, shouting and moaning incomprehensibly, and set off a green wave that surged over.

The crossbow troops in front did not change their expressions, waiting for orders to be issued.

Seeing the enemy approaching at about 250 steps, the commander of the crossbow army waved the flag and "let go"

In an instant, countless dense short arrows shot toward the opposite side like locusts.

However, something incredible happened. The invincible crossbow arrows, which could penetrate Mingguang Armor at this distance, actually lost their effectiveness. Not one of the barbarian troops who rushed over fell to the ground.

With Yunfeng's eyesight, he could clearly see that when the crossbow arrow hit the armor shield, it was either stuck in the gap between the rattans or simply bounced away. However, the rattan armor shield was not damaged at all.

I can't help but make my face look a little ugly.

Jiang Fa came forward and explained: "The vine armor is made from the local specialty ivy, which only grows on cliffs. Moreover, the age of the vines must be more than two years. After the ivy is picked by the Southwest Yi, it can be placed

Soak it in water for half a month, take it out to dry for three days, then soak it in oil for a week, and then

Dry it in the sun, repeat this process thirty-six times, and finally weave it with tung oil. It takes about two years to make a pair of rattan armor, but it is extremely powerful. Except for fire attacks, there is nothing else in the world that can break it." Then

He hesitated and said, "Don't you have fire bombs, general? You can fire fire bombs to repel the enemy."

Yun Feng's mood quickly returned to calmness, and he cupped his hands: "Thank you Mr. Jiang for clarifying your doubts, but don't be busy using fire bombs for the time being. Although fire bombs can drive back the enemy, they cannot annihilate them all. If you use the Nanman again, you will definitely be prepared.

It is extremely disadvantageous to capture Yangping Pass, so we must find an opportunity to gather together and annihilate them."

After that, give the order to the herald

The herald shouted, and the crossbow troops retreated into the rear formation like water. The spear and shield troops were at the front. Yunfeng assumed a completely defensive posture. At the same time, buzzing sounds were heard one after another in the formation, and the trebuchets fired a

Stone bombs were thrown at the enemy. Now the army has rushed to build two hundred trebuchets, firing two hundred stone bombs at a time, but it has achieved some results.

Although Tengjia is not afraid of bows and arrows, he is still powerless when faced with stone bullets weighing dozens of kilograms that fall from the sky with huge potential energy. There is no way. This kind of huge force is not something that ordinary flesh and blood can withstand.

However, the rattan armor still plays a certain protective role. The most direct aspect is that the rattan armor soldiers who were hit by stone bullets basically spit out blood and were shocked to death. In the past, stone bullets could kill sergeants.

The body was scattered in all directions

After all, the trebuchet was mainly used to attack fortresses. It only fired two rounds and killed about two hundred rattan soldiers. The green waves over the mountains and fields were already sweeping over. It was completely different from the tragic scene of the cavalry crashing into the wall and shields.

, Most of the vine armor soldiers avoided the thrusting spears. Even if they were stabbed, it didn't matter. The vine armor shield only had a dent, and then slowly returned to normal at a speed only visible to the naked eye.

This made Yun Feng, who was watching the battle from behind, secretly frightened. From this point of view, it is not a matter of fact that the protective power of rattan armor is stronger than iron armor such as chain armor and Mingguang armor. If there is no fire attack that can restrain it,

, this kind of armor is simply invincible in the world. At this point, he has completely put away his contempt.

I saw the vine-armored soldiers rushing forward using their swords to chop at the wall shields. However, the wall shields were made of thick wood, and the enemy side was covered with iron sheets. How could they be broken by swords? As soon as the swords were slashed.

To no avail, the green guys quickly set up a ladder and tried to climb over, while the spearmen hiding behind the shield took the opportunity to stab the enemy's face, throat and other parts. There were many places where the shield wall could not bear the accumulation of so many people.

The weight of it all fell to the ground on the spot, and the scene fell into chaos.

As long as the vine armor soldiers climb over the shield wall, they immediately become invincible. They are not afraid of swords and spears. The green shell on their bodies is so powerful.

The two brothers Li Qi and Li Yue on Guancheng frowned. The power of the rattan armor was also greatly shocked. They unconsciously thought about ways to break the rattan armor besides fire attack. Zhuge Liang once burned it.

Once, the same method made it difficult for Meng Gulu to supervise the battle in the rear for the second time, but he laughed continuously, his face was full of shame, and he even had a sweet dream of repelling the Jin army in one go.

The chaotic scene was not what Yunfeng wanted. In this short period of time, more than a hundred infantrymen had died tragically under the swords of the Tengjia soldiers, but only ten of the other side had died. This casualty ratio was too high.

, so he quickly ordered the gun and shield soldiers to retreat

Suddenly, nearly three thousand spearmen and shield soldiers gave up their shields, ran away, and dispersed to the two wings. As for the chasing enemies behind them, they didn't need to pay attention. Naturally, there were cavalry to deal with them. At this moment, Meng Gulu suddenly had a look in his eyes.

There was a solemn look in the shot. It turned out that there were crossbows lurking behind the spear and shield soldiers. They were all twisted with huge strings, and the thick black and shiny arrows pointed forward.

"Buzzing buzzing" a bow string shook, and hundreds of three-foot giant arrows were shot at the enemy formation. Under the blow of the huge arrows, the vine armor finally lost its strong protective function. Nearly a hundred vine armor soldiers were shot through the chest, and a hooded

Blood rain fell in the sky, and the familiar scene appeared in front of the soldiers again, and their morale was greatly boosted.

In fact, the role of the bed crossbow is mainly reflected in the psychological aspect. Killing one or two hundred people at a time is nothing to an army of ten thousand people, not to mention the firing interval of this big guy is quite speechless.

Taking advantage of the slight panic in the enemy formation, Yun Feng turned to Yao Yisheng and said, "Yisheng, I leave it to you."

"Brother, don't worry." Yao Yisheng responded excitedly. Since he followed Yunfeng, he has never been of any use. Instead, he has wasted other people's food and fodder. He feels very embarrassed and has long been in his heart.

Holding a breath

He immediately waved his hand and shouted: "All the sons of the Qiang people, follow me and kill them to your heart's content."

The Qiang warriors suddenly agreed, with three thousand on each side. Yao Yisheng personally led four thousand central troops and outflanked them from three directions. On the small battlefield, ten thousand cavalry and ten thousand vine armor soldiers formally engaged in a battle.

Whether it is the vine armor soldiers or the cavalry, the collision between these two arms is unprecedented. The cavalry is invincible and can be called the first arm of land warfare in the cold weapon era. However, the vine armor soldiers have amazing protection, and Zhuge Crossbows are all against them.

There is nothing that can be done. Will the cavalry defeat the vine armor, or will the vine armor defeat the cavalry? Everyone in the audience can’t help but wait and see (to be continued)
