Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chen Yingdao: "Shouling State is more important than anything else!"

Chen Ying naturally knew the value of the sledge, but no matter how valuable the snow sledge was, it was not as valuable as human life.In any case, in such cold weather conditions, without lighting a fire to keep warm, people simply cannot persist.

Fortunately, Chen Ying rushed into Lingzhou before Yi Wuzhenmo led his army to Lingzhou.Seeing that Chen Ying led his troops to Lingzhou City, Guo Zihe, the governor of Lingzhou, was injured and left the mess of Lingzhou to Chen Ying.

At this time, the situation was extremely bad. Except for the geographical advantage, everything else was very bad.The front of Lingzhou City is not big, and the city wall only has more than [-] steps. Even if there are millions of Turkic troops, they cannot spread outside Lingzhou City.

However, what worries Chen Ying is that there are more than [-] soldiers and civilians wounded in Lingzhou City, and now the entire city cannot spare even a thousand young adults.Fortunately, the weather was cold at this time, otherwise, in the era without antibiotics, it is estimated that more than half of the so many lightly and seriously injured would have died of inflammation.

Chen Huairen led the newly recruited medical team to treat the wounded.What surprised Chen Ying was that Lingzhou City desperately resisted the Turkic attack, and there were many wounded, but there were not many seriously wounded. Most of the injuries were caused by the Turkic bows and arrows.

This kind of puncture wound, which looks bloody and frightening to death, is actually not difficult to treat.With existing medical conditions, most people can save their lives.

Holding his saber in hand, Chen Ying climbed up to the gate tower of the west city of Lingzhou.From his harsh point of view, the defensive capabilities of the city walls and gate towers of Lingzhou City are not particularly strong. If the Turks are good at attacking the city, they will be able to take Lingzhou if they can withstand thousands of casualties at most, regardless of casualties. city.

However, it is more than enough to deal with the Turkic cavalry with weaker siege capabilities.Maybe the Turkic people will come to attack the city, Chen Ying thought to himself.

What pleased Chen Ying most was that the weather was getting colder and colder, especially when the north wind blew, the temperature dropped even more.Even though Chen Ying was wearing a down jacket, he still didn't feel much warmth.

Chen Ying thought: "Even if the Turkic nobles have sable furs and stoves to keep warm, the ordinary Turkic soldiers are not treated so well. They will not last long in the wild."

Chapter 22 Must Play

The cold wind was bitter, and Chen Ying's face was numb by the cold wind, and he gradually lost consciousness.The cold wind, on the contrary, made Chen Ying's head clearer.Supporting Lingzhou, in the eyes of temple planners, is just a simple decision, whether it is defended or lost, in fact it has nothing to do with the overall situation.But when it comes to Chen Ying, the "executor", it is already an "impossible" task to complete.

However, the impossible task must be completed!

Snowflakes suddenly fell from the sky, the flakes were as big as goose feathers, Chen Ying was taken aback, stretched out his palm to hold one flake, and thought: "Why is it snowing so suddenly?"

Chen Ying was thinking seriously - if he hadn't come by himself, what would have happened in Lingzhou in the Tang Dynasty in history?However, due to Chen Ying's limited historical knowledge, he didn't know the end of Lingzhou. However, Lingzhou was the inherent territory of the Tang Dynasty, and even if it fell, it might be temporary.

"It seems that God is also looking after us!"

Chen Ying turned around following the voice, and saw Wei Wenzhong smiling, pointing to the snow in the sky and saying: "This snow is just falling, and it's not too bad now, but looking at this posture, I'm afraid the snow will stop within a day or two." Yes, if the snow falls continuously for ten days and the field is covered with a white quilt, we are inside the city, it doesn’t matter, the Turkic people will be very dangerous if they are exposed to wind outside the city!"

"It's not easy for us either. More than a thousand snow sledges sound like a lot, but in fact they are not many. Even if you use them sparingly, you can only use them for three days. They can last for five days, no more." Chen Ying was full of worries. Said: "If the Turks insist on besieging the city outside the city, our situation may not be good!"

"fuel"

Hearing this, Wei Wenzhong's face darkened instantly.

Fuel is the lifeline of soldiers and civilians in Lingzhou.Under such cold weather conditions, there is no fuel to heat up the fire, and there is no need for the Turks to attack. Lingzhou will become a dead city in as few as five days or as many as seven days.

"These things must be kept secret!" Wei Wenzhong said: "Don't let the generals know, otherwise the morale will collapse!"

Chen Ying said weakly: "I'm afraid it's hard to hide it. You can hide other things, but the firewood has to be burned every day."

Under such circumstances, people cannot do without fire to keep warm. Both the people and soldiers in Lingzhou City will look for firewood when they get cold, and if they can't find firewood, they will ask. At that time, it will soon be impossible to hide it.

At this moment, Yang Ze came to Chen Ying's side.Pointing to the Turkic people outside the city, he said, "The Turkic people have increased their troops again!"

Chen Ying saw about four or five thousand riders arriving at the foot of Lingzhou City. At this time, there were more than [-] Turkic people outside the city.There is a saying that thousands of people fill a city, and ten thousand people fill a field. As long as the number exceeds ten thousand, it will appear boundless.

At this time, the Turkic people were divided into three waves. The first wave was the Qibi tribe, with a population of about [-] people. The equipment of this part of the troops was even worse.In the third-class military system of the Turks, the Qibi tribe belonged to Tuojie, and the so-called Tuojie was actually a servant army.The second is the people who control the strings. Most of these people are from Ashina Yiwuzhenmo.

At this time, the Turkic troops who arrived at the city of Lingzhou were none other than the remnants led by Qi Lifushe.When Lifushe arrived at the city of Lingzhou, Chen Ying took the opportunity to annihilate nearly 2 horses. At this time, Lifushe hated Chen Yinghen's teeth were sore.Seeing that Ashina Yiwuzhen is preparing to set up camp.The evil fire set by Tilifu rushed straight into his forehead, and roared at Yi Wuzhen Mo, "Why didn't you attack Tang Nu?"

The Turkic people are the least powerful. It is said that Qilifushe is the younger brother of Shibi Khan, and he is far and close. The remaining generals are far more powerful than Qi Lifu, who has nearly [-] remnants.If you have strength, you will naturally have the confidence to speak.

"I don't need you to teach Yehu how to fight!" In fact, Yi Wu Zhen Mo may not have no intention of preserving his strength, but Tang Jun, who almost wiped out the [-] troops set up by Li Fu in World War I, must be the elite of the elite, such a hard bone , It's not easy, don't really let it be chewed.

"I think you are timid, afraid of Tang Nu!"

"You are not afraid of you!" Yi Wuzhenmo said coldly: "Don't think I don't know, what are you talking about when the people of Tang took advantage of it and attacked suddenly? I defeated you in the field, you shameful liar, despicable villain, you are the shame of the Turks!"

Qi Li Fu set up a moment of panic, with blue veins on his forehead, but he was powerless to refute Yi Wu Zhen Mo.

In the belief of the Turkic nation, they have always believed in the law of the jungle. Not to mention Qilifushe, even Shibi Khan, as long as he is seriously injured, someone will replace him.The weak have no human rights.

Qi Li Fushe suddenly said: "You transfer the Qibi Department to me, and I will call you naturally!"

The Qibi tribe is the Tiele tribe, and the Tiele Khanate is still a tribal alliance established by the Qibi tribe and Xue Yantuo. However, the Qibi tribe is not as strong as the Xue Yantuo tribe and the Huihe tribe. The Xue Yantuo tribe and the Turks are an alliance of enemies and friends , while the Qibi tribe belonged to the Eastern and Western Turks and became one of the extensions.

Tuojie is understood from the meaning of the Chinese word, which means copying, but in Turkic, it refers to the servant army.Yi Wuzhen Mo really had no way to object when Li Fu opened his mouth and asked for the Qibi Ministry. After all, in the eyes of the Turkic nobles, Tuo Jie was just a cannon fodder army, a mob that could consume the enemy's arrows.Moreover, the Turks are proud of their martial arts, and they have no idea who they are. As long as they have the name of fearing the enemy and fighting, they will not be able to raise their heads within the Turks in the future.

Seeing Yi Wuzhen without any hesitation, Li Fushe continued to prod him: "Either you attack Lingzhou City, or transfer the Tuojie cavalry to Ben Yehu!"

Yi Wu Zhen Mo thought for a long time and said: "Yes!"

Qi Lifushe was not polite, and immediately sounded the majestic bull horn after receiving the command of the Qibi Department.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" resounded through the sky, and the brigade of Qibi cavalry began to gather towards the city of Lingzhou.As a servant army, the status of the Qibi tribe is very low, comparable to slaves.They followed Yi Wuzhen Mo all the way from Huaiyuan to Lingzhou City. They were all exhausted, but before they had time to catch their breath, they were ordered to build a camp for the Turkic warriors.Now ordered to prepare to attack again.

Looking at the Turkic Tuojie cavalry who were slowly rearranging their formations under the city, Chen Ying turned to Yang Ze and said, "Sweep the formation for me, I will take people to meet the Turkic people!"

Yang Zedao: "Director Chen can't do it, Turks are too powerful now!"

Chen Ying said without hesitation: "There is no need to persuade. Lingzhou has been besieged for three months, and it is hard to hope that the imperial army will come. If the imperial army is indifferent, the morale of the soldiers and civilians in Lingzhou will definitely be frustrated."

"This battle must be fought?"

"We must fight!" Chen Ying said, "The Yue cavalry army is preparing for battle!"

Chapter 23 Not Teaching Humaduyin

Chen Yingdian Qi Youwei led three regiments of the Yue Cavalry Army with a total of more than [-] troops. They did not bypass the east gate, but directly opened the west gate and rushed towards the Turkic army.

At this time, the field of vision was wide open, and Chen Ying looked west, only to see the Turkic army in front and back.Like three layers of waves, advancing layer by layer, there are about 2000 people on the first layer, more than [-] people on the second layer, and more than [-] people on the third layer. There are hundreds of steps between each layer.

How to solve the problem of lack of burning in Lingzhou City made Chen Ying at a loss.For this reason, Chen Ying felt an inexplicable anger in his heart.Chen Ying looked at the Turkic army that was getting closer and closer. The Turkic Tuojie soldiers were not strong, the horses were not strong, and there were even some Turkic people who didn't even have leather armor.Chen Ying was also relieved a lot.

"Dong dong..." The battle drum sounded, and Chen Ying shouted: "Shigui is on the left, Shixin is on the right, break through the middle!"

Since You Wei led this expedition, he has fought all battles with the wind, and has never experienced a life-and-death struggle with disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves. No matter how high the morale of such an army is, it is actually not a strong army.However, the big victory on the sidelines made the morale of the right guard and the soldiers very high, although there were only more than [-] soldiers who shouted in unison: "Wan Sheng, Tang Dynasty!"

Although there were only more than [-] people in the area, they shouted with the momentum of thousands of people.

The cavalry of these three regiments did not hold crossbows or horizontal knives, but only a hooked sickle.There are more than [-] hooks and sickles, but there is a small shield on the left arm.This is when Chen Ying noticed the arm shield worn by Jackie Chan while watching the movie "Heroes".When Chen Ying shared the idea with Lin Chuanfu, Lin Chuanfu built a batch of folding shields.

These folding shields weigh nine catties in total. They have no handles and are placed directly on the left arm. When they are not opened, they are only one and a half feet long and one foot wide. If they are opened, they will form a shield that is three feet long and two feet wide. steel shield.Although the shield is three-quarters lighter than a heavy shield weighing more than forty catties, its defensive power is not weak.After testing, only the three-stone strong bow can penetrate at a distance of twenty steps, but only through more than an inch.If it is a Turkic cavalry bow, it can be ignored.

It was the first time that Chen Ying led the cavalry to charge, riding on horseback, listening to the cold wind whistling in his ears, Chen Ying had a feeling that his blood was burning.Chen Ying shouted: "Go, go!"

All the soldiers of the Tang Army also shouted; "Go, go!"

All the Turkic cavalry were screaming and chattering, as if they were saying something like "Steady, defend".Seeing that Tang Jun didn't even have a bow to ride, these Turkic Tuojie were extremely excited, and they set up their arrows one after another.

Obviously at this time, from Chen Ying down, the soldiers of the Yue Cavalry Army opened their folding shields one after another. This folding shield can almost protect the soldiers' vital points.
