The ninth and sixty-first chapters are helpless(1/2)
At this moment, the battle between the two sides is basically on the surface.
The cards in both sides' hands were also very clear about them.
What caused Yang Xuanji the most headache for Ning Jun was the cavalry, which came and went like a flying god. The one who caused Ning Jun the most headache was Yang Xuanji's heavy armor.
These two teams were not originally the kind of troops that would inevitably fight to the death. Once they really met, the tragic tragedy was imagined.
If you ask the light cavalry to attack the heavy armored infantry, then the fool can order this way. If you ask the heavy armored infantry to pursue the light cavalry? Even the fool can't do such a thing.
So when everyone is on the surface, it depends on how to transport troops and dispatch them.
But there is no doubt that Yang Xuanji's huge military strength is still firmly taking the initiative.
The reason why Tang Pi is so powerful is that he deliberately gave up a hundred feet apart, which made Yang Xuanji's strong force unable to be used.
If the Ning army guards the river bank with no room for room, the archers of the Tianming Army can fight back on the ship.
After giving up this hundred feet of land, the Tianming Army was eager to land, and the arrays they could form were really limited.
Their huge number of archers were unable to attack the Ning army on the river warships.
"Master."
Xun Youjian looked at Yang Xuanji and said, "After the incident of the huge rock flying in, my subordinates have sent people to spread news in the army that Ning Jun threw it with a rocker, but Ning Jun's rocker has been damaged, and no huge rocks will fly in, so the morale of the army is safe."
The explanation should be reasonable, but it should not be too damaging to the morale of the army. With Xun Youjian's knowledge, the explanation of the rocker is actually the most reasonable.
Yang Xuanji nodded. It had been a while since Ning Jun had not seen another huge rock fly from him. Xun's guilty speculation should be correct.
This kind of thing sounds amazing, but if you calm down and think about it carefully, it is not too difficult to understand.
But he didn't believe it was a rocker. It was impossible for a wooden board to throw a huge rock so far. If it weren't for some magic, it could only be said that Ning Jun had more powerful weapons.
"My dear has carefully observed that when the huge rock flew over Ning Jun, it could fly about forty at first, but later it was scattered, only three or five, and then it stopped completely."
Xun Youjian said: "So it can be inferred that this weapon is damaged very quickly. The reason why it is not used at the beginning is that it is waiting for our army's ships to transport equipment to approach and attack the large ships, so that our army has no large weapons available."
Yang Xuanji nodded again: "Then have you thought of the way to crack the Ning army's cavalry? If they drive the horses to collide, how should they deal with it?"
Xun Youjian said, "My ministers have thought carefully. The Ning army actually has no certainty. Their infantry does not have heavy armor. If they fight with the Hei Tao Army head-on, they will definitely be defeated. If they use cavalry to attack the heavy armor with the help of the terrain, the victory or defeat is between four and six, and we have the advantage."
Yang Xuanji glanced at Xun Youjian. He gave Xun Youjian a day to come up with a plan to break the enemy. It seemed that Xun Youjian couldn't think of anything.
Xun Youjian said, "My subordinates think that the team can be assigned in this way."
He stood up, picked up a charcoal pen and outlined it on the ground: "The lancers are arranged in front of the heavy armor, and the lancers are in front of the heavy armor, and the array is advanced, and the heavy armor is promoted. Then, don't take into account the casualties of the lancers at this time. Even if all the lancers before the heavy armor are killed, as long as they can advance thirty to fifty feet, the light cavalry of the Ning army will lose their function. The heavy armor leaves the river bank and advances like a mountain shift, and the Ning army will retreat."
Yang Xuanji obviously hesitated for a moment, and he asked, "Have you ever calculated the loss of the gunman?"
Xun Youjian replied: "It's about 5,000 to 10,000."
Yang Xuanji asked again: "What about Ning Jun?"
Xun Youjian said: "Before the heavy armor was coming up, Ning Jun's losses were almost negligible. If our bed crossbow could not be transported up, we could not suppress Ning Jun's arrow formation. The spearmen did not have much armor on their bodies and lined up to enter the range of Ning Jun's feather arrows, so the casualties must be quite large."
Yang Xuanji was silent.
The right-leading guard
In the first battle, more than 10,000 people had been lost, while Ning Jun's losses were only about 2,000.
How can a five-to-one battle be hurt without being sad in this way?
It seemed that he had seen through Yang Xuanji's thoughts, Xun Youjian said: "The Ning army has a good geographical location and is neatly arranged. Besides, it is a defense. Our army is mainly attacking. Such losses are actually reasonable."
Yang Xuanji breathed heavily, thinking that if this battle could be won, he would admit the loss of five to one.
After taking the river bank, Ning army had no danger behind it. Tang Pig retreated, and the only thing he could rely on was some small cities. Even without large siege equipment, it would not be too difficult to capture these small cities.
Yuzhou is a vast plain, especially in southern Henan, with almost no mountains and rivers.
For the Ning army, there is no danger of military strength. Fierce battles on the plains will not be able to win the tenfold Destiny Army.
So no matter how much the losses are on the river bank, I can only admit it.
"Then let's fight according to the teacher's arrangement."
Yang Xuanji looked at Xun Youjian and said, "However, can the shield soldiers and spearmen be mixed together to reduce casualties? In this case, it should not affect the squeezing of Ning army cavalry."
This battle was about fighting to the death. What Ning Jun had to rely on was not the light cavalry to form lethality against heavy armor, but to squeeze.
He pushed forward with his war horse and pushed his heavy armor back to the other side of the river. Once the black rayon army wearing heavy armor fell into the water, he could not be saved.
Tang Pidian can settle accounts and exchange war horses for heavy armor, he will make a profit.
The money, materials and manpower consumed by building a heavy armored infantry is far more than that of building a light cavalry.
Xun Youjian thought for a moment. The area was already narrow, and it was already the limit for the spearmen to be able to line up five rows before heavy armor. If shield soldiers were interspersed, the blocking effect of the light cavalry would be greatly reduced.
But he couldn't refute any more, so he could only nod and said, "My subordinates will arrange according to the lord's instructions."
Yang Xuanji responded and looked up at the sky.
Xun Youjian didn't let him wait for a day, because Xun Youjian knew very well that the Heavenly Destiny Army could not afford to wait.
At this time, they lined up along the river, and the subsequent troops could not come up. After it was dark, they knew whether Tang Pidian would attack fiercely at night.
At that time, the soldiers will inevitably be in chaos and the morale of the army will be unstable, and this battle will be defeated.
Therefore, if this kind of battle can be solved during the day, it must be solved during the day.
Ning Jun's side.
On the high slope, Tang Pidian ate a few bites of dry food, raised his eyes again and looked at the Tianming Army.
He saw the mobilization of the Tianming Army, and everything was in his expectation.
In this kind of battle, I basically know what cards you have and what cards I have, it depends on the skills of the card player.
"Where is Zhuo Qinglin, call him over."
Tang Pidian gave an order.
Not long after, Zhuo Qinglin, who was in charge of commanding the stone throwing cart, ran over quickly and leaned over and said, "General."
Tang Pidian asked: "How many stone throwing cars are available?"
Zhuo Qinglin said: "According to the general's instructions, gradually reduce the number of stones thrown by the stone throwing cart, so that the enemy thinks that our weapons are no longer usable, but in fact, there are still twenty-one stone throwing carts available now."
Tang Pidian nodded...
Twenty-one aircraft are indeed a little less, and the damage it can cause is actually very limited compared to the number of heavy armors on the opponent.
Moreover, it is necessary to throw out at least 100 kilograms of stones. No one can say how many times the remaining stone throwing cart can be shot.
There are only 21 stone throwing cars, even if one can shoot out five stones on average, it will be only more than one hundred.
How many people can be killed by a stone? To put it more often, on the river beach, the stones cannot roll on the already soft ground, and killing three or four people at a time is the limit.
It's meaningless to kill hundreds of people.
The only way to increase the number of times the stone throwing car is to reduce the shooting of the stone throwing car
The weight of the instrument.
Tang Pidian calculated the amount of tinder oil reserved in the army again. This kind of thing was extremely scarce and was not enough to form a sea of fire to give a fatal blow to heavy armor.
He looked up at the sky, then slowly breathed out.
After a while, he stood up and said, "Transfer to the two generals Zhuang Wudi and Cheng Wujie. What is the key to the victory or defeat of this battle lies in them."
At the same time, southeast of Jingzhou.
Prince Wu Yang Jiju inspected the front line and looked at Brother Li Hu’s army camp opposite him with a thousand eyes.
It can be seen that the camp is much empty than before. It can be concluded that Brother Li must have sent out most of the troops to collect summer grain.
If he took the opportunity to attack fiercely at this time, he might have burned Brother Li's camp in a fire, but it actually has little effect.
"Have you done everything I asked you to do?"
Prince Wu turned around and asked.
The generals under his command leaned over neatly: "It's done."
In six or seven days, the soldiers of the Zuowu Guard used straw to lay out many straw men, and then put on military uniforms to the straw men.
"Then go and arrange it."
Prince Wu felt a little disturbed and depressed, but he had no choice but to do anything.
In another three days, at most three days, the food in the army will be exhausted, and the soldiers will have to fight against Li Brother Hu’s millions of troops on hunger.
The Zuo Wuwei will not be defeated by any enemy on the front battlefield, but will be defeated by hunger.
"This time I go back to Jingzhou, no matter how Your Majesty will punish you, it has nothing to do with you. It is my efforts."
Prince Wu said: "The army alternately covers the retreat and retreats directly to Daxing City. The generals of each army supervise their subordinates, so there is no need to go together, but go their own."
General Du Gaomeng lowered his voice and asked, "But General, the food in our army is really not enough for the soldiers to keep going back. There are only about three days of food left."
Prince Wu was silent for a moment, his face became even more sad.
"I asked you to rush to build a lot of banners of Brother Li and Tiger's thieves before, but are they all ready?"
