sweeping the world

Chapter 13
Tuobaxiu was awakened by the noise in her sleep. She got up and ran to the window. There were not many light sources outside, and most of them were in darkness.Before she could do anything else, Xu Zheng came over.

Xu Zheng, who was unable to participate in the battle, looked unhappy, and said in a muffled voice: "Your Majesty, please go out and have a look."

Tuobaxiu was taken aback for a moment, but she didn't ask any more questions, and quietly followed Xu Zheng to a building, went up to the second floor and looked westward, and there was a hazy scene in the distance.

In fact, Liu Yan wanted Tuoba Xiu to see the bravery of his own soldiers again. How could he know that most people in this era had symptoms of night blindness? It was a useless effort.

The Tiefu tribe of the Huns who entered the camp galloped for a short distance and then separated. They just wanted to come in and set fire to the camp, so naturally they needed to disperse.

Six people came from the direction where Liu Yan was. He looked at the force value of the six people and saw that the highest value was only 72. He first gave a loud shout, and then galloped out.

The Xiongnu Tiefu cavalry who were galloping on horseback were first startled when they heard the loud shouts, but their hearts tightened when they saw someone coming out of the darkness, and they smiled grinningly when they saw only one person.

The men outside the Great Wall who grew up on horseback had full confidence in riding against the knights of the Tiefu tribe of the Xiongnu, and they felt that they had an advantage in fighting more and less.However, it didn't take long for them to be happy, and there were bursts of sharp piercing sounds...

"Be careful! Someone shoots an arrow!"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of the arrow piercing the flesh was heard, followed by the screams of people and the neighing of the horses, but two people were shot and fell off the horse, and another one got off the horse and ran away from the group.

Liu Yan was in the posture of riding a horse and charging. He quickly slapped the person he met with a spear off the horse. The next movement was to stab a person who had just avoided the arrow and had no time to stabilize his figure. The third movement was Abandoning the spear and drawing out the sword, the fourth action is to swing the sword upwards, using the speed of the horse to directly cut off the head of the enemy passing by.

The series of pictures are like flowing clouds and flowing water. Unfortunately, the night light is too dark, and Liu Yan's brave figure is not seen by people.

The rest of the Xiongnu Tiefu cavalry who were scattered and wanted to set fire, except for three who did not rush to the source of the fire, were all caught in an ambush, either shot to death by arrow rain, or killed by swordsmen and spearmen.The three quick-witted enemies didn't run away for long, and were quickly blocked and killed.

[Finally, the hidden danger is resolved, then the next step is to start the strategy against the enemy in Buqicheng! 】

Liu Yan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. There were cavalry from the Tiefu tribe of the Xiongnu before, and he couldn't do anything at all, so he immediately let the team that should have started a long time ago.

There are 12 cavalrymen, 20 swordsmen, 30 archers and 20 peasants. They are heading towards Buqicheng, and they will let Liu Yan try a unique method of warfare, which can only be used with golden fingers!

…………

Lu Tai had seen it in relatively detail just now, with a greedy look in his eyes, and he couldn't help but murmur: "Your Majesty is so brave!"

As long as anyone can see the scene just now, he will inevitably feel admiration for Liu Yan in his heart. After all, the monarch in the war years is not enough to be kind, he should have the strength to protect himself, and his own bravery is also enough. A lot of extra points.

"But I don't know, would your lord be willing to teach you how to use a spear immediately?" Lu Tai thought about his face feeling sad, and then thought: "Who wants to teach at will..."

Do you really think that's what horse riding is all about?Think the cavalry's lance is not particular?If you understand it this way, you are either military blind or self-righteous.

Liu Yan chose to shoot with a spear, stabbing one person to death and then abandoning the spear. This was because the spear in his hand was not a brittle wooden pole. If he stabbed the person without abandoning the spear, he would be knocked off his horse by the resistance.

In fact, riding a gun is far more important than any weapon. The West uses brittle apple wood as the wood for riding a gun. Therefore, seeing the scene of Western cavalry hedging is a scene of pieces of wood flying around. It is not how bad the weapons of Western cavalry are. , It is because their lances are fragile in order to remove the resistance after stabbing objects, and there is one less step to abandon the gun.

Throughout the history of Eastern cavalry, most of them were based on fighting swords or sabers. Don’t be fooled by unsophisticated film and television works.Before the discovery of trees suitable for making lance poles, such as brittle and fragile tree trunks, cavalry in both the grasslands and China mainly used short and medium weapons, and very few people could wield long spears on horseback. All of them have become powerful generals. After all, weapons are every inch longer and every inch stronger, and this is especially true for mounted combat.

After a brief noise in the resettlement place, it soon became quiet again, but tonight, I don't know how many people will stay up all night.

"Your Majesty, just now there were a dozen or so people agitating to take advantage of the chaos and riot, and the villains have all been arrested." Tian Shuo had a respectful face, but it looked like he was asking for credit.

Liu Yan has nothing extra to say, anyone who wants to tear down the stage must be prepared to die, and ordered: "I will be detained first, and the flag will be sacrificed before the army departs."

Tian Shuo first responded to the "promise" and then became short of breath, hesitating again and again, and said, "Your Majesty, do you really want to take the initiative?"

Liu Yan nodded. He didn't need to explain. He smiled and asked Tian Shuo to rest.

Later, Xu Zheng and Lu Tai also came to report to Liu Yan, reporting the process of killing the invaders, and reporting the casualties.

Because they were well prepared, the men from the Xiongnu Tiefu tribe did not succeed in setting the fire. However, they fought desperately and continued to fight after discovering that they were ambushed. As a result, 11 people on Liu Yan's side were killed, 8 were seriously injured, and dozens were slightly injured. human cost.

Among the soldiers who died in the battle, there were 4 spearmen of the system, and the rest were soldiers from Jin Dynasty. Liu Yanrang buried the wounded properly, and finally said: "Facing the dying enemy, you are not cowardly and do not fight, but go up bravely. Before, I was very satisfied.”

Lu Tai and Xu Zheng, who were a little worried at first, kept saying modestly, "I don't dare."

Liu Yan has already asked about the backgrounds of the two of them. Speaking of which, all the talented people these days have family backgrounds, and they were all harmed by Chen Qun's "Nine-rank Zhongzheng System", making it "top-rank without poor family, Low rank, no family", if you don't have a family background, you really can't learn much.

Of course, the family backgrounds of Lu Tai and Xu Zheng are not that amazing. The real "gentry" have already gone to the south in full clothes, and even if they have backgrounds in the Central Plains, they are basically small families, but they still can't stand the talents of this age. Hard to find.Because they were literate and knew some about the military, they stood out among so many people and became officers with 200 men each.

There is a saying that "a thousand troops are easy to get, but a general is hard to find". In troubled times, it is rare to find a general, but there is a kind of character that is more rare than a general, that is, civil servants who have the ability to govern the local area or can offer advice and suggestions.

Among the Jin people taken in by Liu Yan, the literacy rate was not even one-thousandth, and the number of people who could work as civil servants was pitifully small, so Tian Shuo was able to become the top scholar.

Having said that, Tian Shuo is not good at leading people to run away, but he seems to be very experienced in managing civil affairs.Maybe it's also related to his hard work?Thanks to God's help, the resettlement area was managed fairly well.
