I’m The King Chapter 574: : Joy
Gongsun Yi saw that the opponent was not guarded at all, and he couldn't help but feel happy. The First Army is the forward of the Eastern Conqueror Army. They are absolutely in the lead. Cavalry like them cannot wear heavy armor like infantry. It is too heavy, which is not conducive to cavalry galloping, and the combat is not flexible enough, so they can only wear leather armor, but these leather armors are somewhat different from ordinary armor. It's different, the key parts of the body, the places that are easy to kill, are inlaid with iron plates. Don't underestimate this small change, but it can save lives on the battlefield. Lewen is worthy of your collection. lw0.
In this way, the cost is not big, but the trouble is that the production process is much more cumbersome.
If this kind of special leather armor can save lives, then the cavalry crossbow, which has become a standard weapon in the hands of Zhengdong Army, is a deadly thing. It can't penetrate the heavy armor of infantry, but it can kill the ordinary leather armor worn by cavalry with one blow.
Gongsun Yi bullied the Wusu tribe, had never fought against the Zhengdong Army, and didn't know much about the details of the Zhengdong Army, so he deliberately put up such a formation to lure the opponent to rush over without hesitation.
Facts have proved that Gongsun Yi's plan fully calculated the opponent's reaction.
The half-moon is unfolded, and the middle is the deepest. The opponent's conical offensive formation will rush to this deepest point, and the entire offensive formation will sink into the half-moon-shaped area. It is very easy to penetrate. , but the problem is that the blow they have to bear is too big.
Aaron did not know that his opponent had deliberately set a trap. Looking at the opponent's formation, he screamed with excitement. Take the lead. It plunged deeply into the deepest part, and went straight to that depression.
At this moment, the continuous sound of Linlin suddenly sounded. The two wings of the Wusu Department's conical formation were completely exposed to the arrow rain of the Zhengdong Army.
With three consecutive shots, Gongsun Yi shot all the three consecutive crossbows in the hands of hundreds of cavalrymen under his command at once.
The complete pouring out naturally brought fruitful results, and the unsuspecting Allen tribe suffered heavy losses in the first place.
This was the first time Allen saw the crossbow mounted by the Zhengdong Army, and it was also the last time he saw it. Because Gongsun Yi appeared right in front of him. And a total of nearly ten crossbows were aimed at Allen.
The general leads the charge. Be prepared to be the first to die.
When the sound of Linlin riding a crossbow sounded, Allen saw short crossbow arrows rushing towards his face like locusts. At this time, he was less than twenty steps away from the opponent. Swinging the scimitar in his hand, Ge flew away most of the crossbow arrows, but dozens of dense crossbow arrows pierced his body and the horse's body, and he fell off the horse like a blood gourd.
In just one round of attack, more than a hundred Donghu cavalry fell down, the neat attack formation was swept away, and the outer cavalry was almost wiped out.
As soon as they fought, the Donghu cavalry, who were full of confidence in their field combat ability, found that the opponent's ability was not inferior to their own at all. Even in a face-to-face confrontation, they could not take advantage of it. And in front of them was only half of all the enemies they had to face, and on the other side, there were hundreds of enemy cavalry roaring and rushing forward.
The Eastern Hu cavalrymen who came out were made dumplings by the Eastern Conqueror Army, and none of them escaped.
The battle only lasted for a cup of tea, and then it was over. Gongsun Yi was all smiles, looking at the lost Luo Lei, very happy. Desperate, it has nothing to do with the overall situation.
"Good job!" Xu Yuan rode his horse up to Gongsun Yi and praised him without hesitation. Although this battle looked like a battle without any suspense in Xu Yuan's eyes, Gongsun Yi was able to do it so neatly, it was just a small gimmick, which made the battle much easier. It still made Xu Yuan very happy.
It is the best thing to reduce the casualties of your own brothers. After following Gao Yuan for a long time, the generals of the Eastern Army have all contracted the same problem. Cherish the soldiers in your hands, especially the veterans, they are the backbone of the army .
After the reorganization of the Eastern Conscript Army, apart from the officers, ordinary soldiers were also divided into different ranks, and each rank corresponds to a different salary. However, Xu Yuan’s army has no new recruits , the worst is also a second-class soldier, that is to say, someone who has fought a battle and won the enemy's head.
"Clean up the battlefield, especially the horses. They will be needed later." Xu Yuan said.
Since Chen Bin came up this morning, his right eyelid kept twitching, his left eye twitched for money, and his right eye twitched for disaster. Later, when I saw Allen leading almost all the cavalry here, the uneasiness reached its peak.
Chen Bin is a lieutenant general of the Yan Army's standing army. Here, he doesn't need to work in the fields like ordinary soldiers, but needs to manage the Yan Army soldiers working here. Although the Yan army disarmed, they were different from ordinary prisoners of war and needed to be returned to the Yan people. Therefore, in each settlement, a low-level general of the former Yan army was placed to assist in the management, which also eased the tension between the Yan army prisoners of war and the Donghu people. In this way, even if these prisoners of war are bullied and wronged and feel injustice, they still have a place to complain, lest they feel that there is no way to complain, feel desperate, and instead do something that is ruined.
I have to say that Thorpe's trick is very effective. Seeing that there are still generals here, the hearts of the prisoners of war are quite relieved. After the beginning of spring, these prisoners of war reclaimed tens of thousands of acres of fertile land for the Wusu tribe in an orderly manner. In autumn, they can harvest food.
The entire camp is now extremely empty, only a dozen Donghu cavalry are left wandering here. Standing on a high ground, Chen Bin looks at the dense crowd of soldiers who are sweating profusely to reclaim the wasteland, feeling irritable What's more, for them, there is no distinction between slack and busy farming. The land where crops have been planted over there was reclaimed by them last winter, and seedlings have grown now, and now they need to reclaim new crops. Tian Lai.
Chen Bin felt that this was an extremely humiliating thing. He came from a poor family, started as a soldier at the bottom, and rose to the position of lieutenant general step by step. A lieutenant general who has no connections is already the highest position he can reach. Originally, the battle against Donghu gave him hope. This kind of war of destroying the country is the easiest way to make meritorious deeds. If he can perform well, it is not impossible to go further. It must be on the battlefield. A person like him is the time when he can display his abilities the most.
As General Kumamoto fought all the way to Helin City, many comrades fell down, and he survived by luck, but at this moment, he wished to die under Helin City, maybe he felt better in his heart. Where is it like now that people are not human, ghosts are not ghosts? If it wasn't for General Kumamoto who also stayed and personally selected them to go to various settlements to appease the soldiers, he would have quit long ago.
The captured mid-level and high-level generals almost all left after the first batch of released prisoners of war. In the eyes of those people in the country, these people are naturally more expensive. If there is no way like myself, I am afraid that they will be in this ghost place After staying for five years, maybe I am still alive after five years, but I don't know how many of the soldiers below are still alive.
Looking at the soldiers sweating profusely, Chen Bin felt dejected. Although he could eat enough, he must be in a foreign land and was not acclimatized to the environment. The easiest way to deal with it is to throw people far away and let them fend for themselves. Because they worry about contagion.
In the past half a year since coming here, hundreds of soldiers have already disappeared like this.
It doesn't matter if you die here, if you return to the country like this, you will really be ashamed to see others. Chen Bin thought with a wry smile.
The ground trembled slightly, which was the signal that the cavalry was approaching. Chen Bin turned around and looked into the distance. Those Donghu people pulled out the whole army early in the morning. To see clearly. For him, the Lieutenant General, the Donghu people did not intentionally keep him in trouble, on the contrary they were very polite. Presumably they also understood that these thousands of prisoners of war needed to be appeased by themselves.
Turning around, Chen Bin saw the cavalry approaching in the distance, but he froze when he saw them for the first time.
That's not the cavalry of the Donghu people, that's the Yan army, that's the banner of the East Army.
Last year in the battle against Donghu, Chen Bin has been at the forefront of the battle~IndoMTL.com~ In order to cover Zhou Yu's retreat, Zhou Yuan ordered Kumamoto's troops to attack Helin desperately. An order came down and the whole army surrendered. They were completely cut off from outside news. They didn't know the entanglement between the Yan Army and the Zhengdong Army. Attack Donghu together. Later, the entire central army was defeated, but the left and right armies had no news. They were strictly controlled, and they did not have any source of information. He didn't see a single soldier from the left and right armies. Originally, he thought that such a strong central army would be forced to surrender, and that the weak left and right armies would definitely be wiped out.
But today he actually saw the flag of the East Army.
At the moment when he was stunned, those cavalrymen got closer to him, and Chen Bin could see them very clearly. On the road, the blood splashed on it is so conspicuous. They had fought not so long ago, and had won.
It is self-evident who their opponent is.
At that moment, Chen Bin was completely shocked by the great joy, and his whole body became stiff, like a clay sculpture and wood carving, he completely lost his thoughts. (To be continued. (lw0.))()
