Chapter 712: Buried myself... (please vote)

In the next two days, the Shanyue people at the foot of the mountain launched attacks from time to time, but only briefly. After encountering a strong blockage, they immediately retreated. They were no longer as crazy as they were during the first attack.

Fang Jun guessed that Wu Duohai, the commander-in-chief of the Shanyue Sect, was probably showing off to the Han nobleman. He neither attacked nor evacuated, so he left Fang Jun here like this to whet the appetite of the Han nobleman...< br>


There is enough food on the mountain, even if we are surrounded for ten or eight days, it doesn't matter.

But Fang Jun gradually felt uneasy.

Obviously, this rebellion of the Shanyue people was instigated and secretly supported by some Jiangnan nobles. So what is the relationship between these Jiangnan nobles and the Han nobleman? If his guess is correct, then the Han noble son is Changsun Chong, who is on the run in fear of crime. With the influence of the Changsun family, if the Jiangnan noble clans directly send their dead soldiers to participate in the attack...

He is not afraid of a bunch of scattered Shanyue people, but if they are dead soldiers raised by the Jiangnan gentry, he will be extremely careless!

I told Liu Rengui and Liu Renyuan my thoughts. They had the same idea as Fang Jun. It would be too dangerous to continue to stay on the mountain to create a drama of "being trapped" to gain merit. Being surrounded... There are at best more than a hundred people on my side. Although the cavalry has an absolute advantage over the infantry, the Jiangnan noble clan has been in business for hundreds of years, so there must be no shortage of long-range weapons such as bows and crossbows in the clan. When light cavalry encounters crossbows...


That would be tragic.

Without further ado, Fang Jun immediately organized his soldiers to prepare for a breakout. If you trap yourself here because you want to gain huge reputation, then you are really digging a hole and burying yourself. I guarantee that someone will still laugh at Fang Jun for seeking death in a thousand years...

However, it backfired.

When Liu Renyuan led the scouts to find a breakthrough point with weak troops, they discovered a large number of crossbows and soldiers wearing armor in the Shanyue people's formation. Unfortunately, Fang Jun's guess came true.

The atmosphere on the top of the mountain became heavy.

Although many soldiers are equipped with armor, it is only half-body armor. When faced with weapons such as crossbows and long-range destructive weapons, the shortcomings are obvious. Not to mention that they could have shot the horses first. Without the horses, these more than a hundred people would be trapped in the wave-like mountain formation. Even if they faced ten thousand ants, they would probably be bitten to death. As for the more than one hundred craftsmen of the Fang family, although they are all strong and strong, they have zero experience in fighting enemies. In this case, they will only be a hindrance and will not add to the overall combat effectiveness.

Liu Renyuan wiped his face. He had just had a hand-to-hand encounter with a group of soldiers wearing armor. He then killed all his opponents and sprayed blood on his face. He did not bother to wash away the blood stains on his face and said in a deep voice: "These battles The soldiers have very strong fighting ability. They are definitely not ordinary soldiers. From the general's perspective, they look more like dead soldiers raised by the Jiangnan gentry."

Liu Rengui remained silent, looking up at the more and more soldiers gathering at the foot of the mountain with a frown on his face. If the Jiangnan nobles send soldiers to join the war, it will be troublesome.

Fang Jun is very embarrassed...

Although Liu Rengui and Liu Renyuan did not complain a word, Fang Jun himself felt guilty... How could he have fallen into such a desperate situation if he had not committed suicide? Do you think that because you are a time traveler, your IQ can crush the vast majority of people in this era, and that you become Zhuge Liang by shaking the goose feather fan? Fang Jun was so ashamed that he almost had no face to see anyone.

Liu Rengui has been silent, but he didn't pay attention to Fang Jun's expression. Not to mention whether he dared to complain or not, the most important thing at this time was to find a way to break out. What's the point of complaining?

But after thinking for a long time, there was no way to easily break through the crossbow encirclement. He sighed: "The cavalry has a natural advantage over the infantry, but the crossbow suppresses the cavalry in all directions. If we have enough people, we can launch it once at such a short distance." The raid still has a breakthrough hope, but we only had such a small number of people, and we were shot to death by crossbowmen before we could rush to the front of the formation... Unless it was the black armor cavalry when His Majesty defeated Dou Jiande at Hulao Pass, otherwise the light cavalry would face the crossbowmen. , that is a living target..."

Liu Renyuan said nonchalantly: "Where are the black armored cavalry? Your Majesty, as a minister, was in charge of the war in the Central Plains. All the most elite soldiers under Li Tang's command were dispatched by your majesty. He could only put together three thousand black armored cavalry. The armor was too difficult. Build it! What’s the use of saying that now? If we die here, it’s considered a sacrifice for the country. We just have to find a way to protect the Marquis and break through the siege!”

Liu Rengui was discouraged for a while.

Although the enemy's crossbowmen were not many, they were a force strictly controlled by the imperial court, and the Jiangnan nobles could not afford a large amount of equipment in a big way. However, their own number was also small. Comparing the two, the disadvantage was too great.

Fang Jun was very excited.

Of course he had heard about His Majesty Li Er's Black Armor Cavalry. To be honest, His Majesty Li Er's greatest contribution to the myth of breaking the 100,000 Hulao Pass from 3,000 to 100,000 was attributed to these three thousand Black Armor Cavalry. Black Armored Cavalry is just the name of this unit. If it were attributed to the military type, it would be another name - Armored Cavalry!

The armored cavalry, also known as the armored cavalry, is a branch of arms that maximizes the protective capabilities of humans and horses. With its strong defensive capabilities, the armored cavalry can run rampant on the battlefield without fear of swords. History has proven that those who are well trained and commanded properly Armor and cavalry equipment can ignore almost any military type, that is, Even the cavalry archers and heavy infantry, which are generally regarded as the nemesis of heavy cavalry, are helpless. There are few empires in the world that have not established such arms. Many empires have declined due to the loss of their elite armor and cavalry equipment, such as the Great Empire. Sui and Rome...

The peak of Chinese armored cavalry equipment was in the Sui Dynasty. The Sui Dynasty, which inherited a large number of weapons from the Northern Dynasties, had an astonishing number of armored cavalry equipment and was the absolute main force of the Sui Dynasty's army. It's a pity that most of the most elite armored cavalry of the Sui Dynasty were killed in Goguryeo - Goguryeo is a mountainous country with many rivers and waterways. These terrains are simply a disaster for armored cavalry. This is the failure of the Sui Dynasty in Goguryeo. Have a close relationship.

Later, the Tang army learned its lesson and replaced the armored cavalry with new types of archers and ordinary heavy cavalry, and won the war against the Turks and Goguryeo.

It can be said that the disadvantages of armored cavalry are as prominent as their advantages, and sooner or later they will be eliminated by the development of the times.

But it is still the most invincible existence on the battlefield in the cold weapon era!

Yes, they are bulky, and they can only charge, but their detours fail to be straightforward, sneak attacks fail to be upright, stray shots fail to be domineering, and defense fails to be fierce. Only frontal attack is the desire of a true warrior!

They are the kings of the ancient battlefield, the luxurious warriors that every king dreams of most. On the battlefield with hundreds of thousands of people, they are only a few thousand, but they can intimidate the three armies. The noble warriors are all proud to be among them. They are armored cavalry. Heavy cavalry equipped with armor, both men and horses!

Fang Jun felt that his blood was boiling!

Yes, it is impossible to create the "Nine Iron Armors" with such sophisticated, complicated and perfect equipment, but looking at the iron-making furnace in front of you, and then looking at the several water conservancy forging hammers standing by the river... an idea emerged. In Fang Jun's mind.

*****

The Shanyue people's formation at the foot of the mountain was filled with depression.

Changsun Chong felt that he could no longer stand Wu Duohai's stupidity. If he couldn't defeat him, he would have to cut off Wu Duohai's stupid head even if he was in the Shanyue people's formation!

This group of stupid barbarians only knew how to burn, kill, loot, and attack the county town to steal food and women. However, they forgot that without their own intermediary contact and the acquiescence and support of the Jiangnan nobles, they would have been suppressed by the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty in the blink of an eye!

From the time the rebellion was launched to now, not a single soldier from the vicinity of Xuanzhou has come to encircle and suppress it. Don’t you know what’s going on? And what he and the Jiangnan nobles want is Fang Jun's head, this is the prerequisite!

But now Wu Duohai actually wanted to give up the siege of Fang Jun and instead attack a larger city to plunder more food, money and women. How could he allow it? How could the Jiangnan gentry allow it?

"Now the soldiers from the major families have arrived one after another. As long as they can surround Fang Jun tightly and prevent him from flying, they will soon be able to cut off his head. By then, no one will care about what you Shanyue people do." Changsun Chong endured his anger and persuaded Wu Duohai.

Wu Duohai remained silent, but he didn't agree in his heart. Do you really think I'm a fool?

What is it about dividing a river to rule, and what is it about cutting off territory and becoming a king? It’s just a lie!
