Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 412

[Chapter 412]

“The soldiers who escaped just now also said that they encountered Da Song’s army, and the tribe suffered heavy losses.”

“It really is Da Song’s army.” The

other wolves became nervous. Men were brought by them.

If attacked by the Great Song cavalry, they will have no power to resist.

“My lord, we must go back now.” The wolves yelled, they didn’t want their tribe to be burned to ashes.

But Langlu, who knew that his tribe had been turned into ashes, had red eyes, “My lord, revenge, revenge now!”

Enke was furious, and he said, “Why didn’t the scouts of your tribe discover them in advance? We grassland people With eagle-like eyes, why don’t we even have the strength to fight back now.”

“We never thought that Da Song’s army would enter the grassland, and the patrolling scouts must be slack, but we are also surprised why they didn’t find Da Song’s cavalry , as if these Dasong cavalry could predict everything, and avoided the inspection.”

“Huh, you are too underestimating the enemy, now you immediately notify all the tribes, and send scouts to patrol the grassland day and night, and you must find me the Dasong cavalry. ” Enke said angrily.

Gordan was full of hatred at this time, he said: “Your Majesty, please give me 8,000 cavalry, and I will definitely bring their heads back to the King!”

Enke nodded and said: “This cavalry must be eliminated, Otherwise, the root of the Black Iron King’s Tent will be broken, and all the wolves will immediately lead the cavalry of their respective tribes back, and must find them out. These big bastards dare to kill our people, and they must pay the price. ”

I will cut off their heads one by one and build the highest altar in Beidi.” Gordan looked crazy.

After receiving Enke’s order, the wolves immediately marched towards the vast grassland with the cavalry of each tribe.

At this time, they could no longer take Qingfengkou into consideration, because the cavalrymen who went deep into the grassland made them restless.

The change in the black iron king’s tent was also quickly discovered by Zhongli and Chen Hu, and they immediately sent the news to Qingfengkou.

Qingfengkou.

Zhao Xu and Chang Wei are inspecting the spoils captured by Zhong Li and Chen Hu on the grassland.

At first, the two sent back only war horses, but then many cattle and sheep were sent over.

These war horses, cattle and sheep all arrived in Yan County through other Yanshan roads, avoiding the mountain road at Qingfengkou. It can only be said that Enke’s attack on Qingfengkou Bastion this time was a loss for his wife and soldiers.

“Your Highness, there are already 60,000 war horses, and there are quite a few foals among them.” Chang Wei smiled all over his face.

Da Song has always lacked high-quality war horses. In the eyes of the generals, horses are precious, and Chang Wei is naturally happy to see them.

Then he said: “There are still 20,000 cows and 18,000 sheep.”

Zhao Xu laughed a few times, no wonder nomads and Western powers in history like to rob, it turns out that this is the fastest way to get rich.

This time, he finally fought back with fire.

“War horses are sent to the army to be raised, and some good cattle and sheep are selected and sent to the farms, which can develop Yanzhou’s animal husbandry.” Zhao Xu said, “The rest will be killed intermittently, and the soldiers will eat meat.”

Often When the generals of Weihe heard this, their brows were filled with joy, and each of them became silly.

“Your Highness, I didn’t expect that a black iron king’s tent would be so blessed. If the whole of Beidi was robbed, wouldn’t the four counties of Beidi become rich?” Lu Chang’s saliva was almost drooling.

Zhao Xu nodded slightly.

In contemporary Mongolia, it is said that there are 4.2 million horses, 4.8 million cows, 472,400 camels, 32.3 million sheep, and 29.3 million goats. It can be seen how suitable the grassland is for animal husbandry.

Although the ancient animal husbandry technology is not good, he believes that the number of livestock in Beidi will definitely not be small.

If Beidi can be captured and the Beidi Grassland becomes his racetrack, the four northern counties will truly be able to live a prosperous life where everyone has meat to eat.

However, he is just thinking about it now.

This time, he took advantage of the gap between Beidi’s two-line battle and when his troops were scattered, he dared to launch an attack on the Black Iron King’s Tent.

If he faced more than two cavalry on the grassland, it would be very difficult for him.

So, just think about it, after all, before the appearance of machine guns, cavalry was always the main force on the battlefield.

Having said this, Zhao Xu looked at the chariots that kept coming from the direction of Yancheng, and said to Chang Wei: “If you want more horses, cattle and sheep, attack the Black Iron King’s Tent. I will leave this matter to you.”

Chang Wei was taken aback when he heard the words, “Your Highness is leaving?”

Zhao Xu nodded, “The real threat comes from the sea, and the Yuan family. This king needs to go to Yanguan to take command.”

Chang Wei nodded solemnly, ” Don’t worry, Your Highness, you can leave this place to the last general.”

Patting Chang Wei on the shoulder, Zhao Xu warned: “This active attack is also a test for Che Ying. Remember, you need to be flexible and able to fight Fight if you win, retreat if you can’t win, and continue to defend Qingfeng Pass.”

After finishing speaking, Zhao Xu got on his horse and headed towards Yanguan under the protection of Xu Lie.

…

Xiancheng.

When Zhao Xu’s counterattack against the Black Iron King’s Tent was about to begin, the battle here was still going on.

At this moment, the troops of the Dou family are on the left, and the troops of the Wang family and the Han family are on the right.

Custodian soldiers are in the middle.

In front of them, artillery was lined up.

As the order was passed, the artillery made a huge roar.

Accompanied by the flames and roar, the shells flew straight to the opposite Ma Jinbing army formation.

“what……”

The soldiers hit by the shells screamed and flew backwards, knocking down a group of soldiers.

More than 300 artillery pieces were fired continuously, shells fell like raindrops, and soldiers were killed from time to time.

It’s just that Ma Jin’s soldiers and horses are still advancing against the artillery of the Dasong army.

When the distance between the two armies was 150 meters, the arquebus soldiers standing behind the artillery walked forward about 30 meters.

At this time, they picked up the match, and after the other party entered a distance of 100 meters, they lit the gunpowder.

“Bang bang bang…”

White smoke rose, and the arquebus soldiers were completely enveloped in the smoke.

At this time, apart from the screams of Ma Jin’s soldiers, there was the sound of metal clashes of bullets hitting the shield a hundred meters away.

At this moment, among Ma Jin’s soldiers, there were soldiers in the front row carrying heavy shields.

This kind of heavy shield is very thick, and it takes two people to lift it up, in order to resist the shooting of the matchlock gun and protect the soldiers behind the shield.

In the very beginning of the battle, they once let the sword and shield hand use the small round shield they carried with them to resist the bullets of the arquebus.

But it was of no avail, and the arquebus easily pierced their bucklers.

So Gu Le asked the craftsmen in the city to make heavy shields.

Today, these heavy shields were finally put to use.

“Boom!”

The soldiers were rejoicing after resisting a wave of matchlock bullets.

Suddenly there was a loud bang like ringing a bell.

It turned out that the arquebus soldiers retreated immediately upon seeing this, and fired again after the artillery was loaded.

This time the shells directly focused on the heavy shield.

The heavy shield was directly hit by the shell and flew out.

At this moment, the shield seemed to become a flying blade, and wherever it went, Ma Jin’s soldiers died tragically under the flying shield.

At the same time, more artillery was fired, and one heavy shield after another was knocked into the air.

“Damn it!” On the city wall, Ma Jin slammed his fist hard on the city wall.

Gu Le and Wu Yan looked miserable.
