Chapter 45 The Battle of Miracles (2)

One civilian after another emerged from the tents on both sides of the avenue from Linzhai to Zhao'anzhai.

All of them were Ding Fu, who was drawn from the surrounding villages.

It was rainy and flooding soon, and it was much more difficult to build roads at that time. It happened that the weather was dry and the things were dry, which was a good opportunity to build roads.

Suddenly, Ye Deputy, who was in charge of the civil servant, screamed: "Where is the Ding Fu from Wangjiazhai?"

A civilian man replied carefully: "Report Ye Dutou, when it was almost dawn, a man came over on a horse, saying that the Xixia people attacked Wangjiazhai, and all the people from Wangjiazhai went back to support him. They asked the young man to take a leave of absence to Ye Dutou."

"The Xixia people attacked Wangjiazhai and thought they were fools." Ye Deputy shouted.

"Yes, there are six or seven hundred enemies."

"Six or seven thousand enemies are not good either. Send someone to recover them for me," Ye Deputy shouted. He can't blame him for being anxious. If there is a deadline for road construction, the spring flood will come later. The spring flood in Yanzhou is not large in scale, but the continuous spring rain falls and the roads are muddy. How to build the road? Moreover, the spring is getting deeper and the people also have to cultivate spring farming. Although Cheng Kan is not as good as Pang Ji and Fan Zhongyan, he is also a first-class minister of the Song Dynasty. He donates money to build the roads to be good governance, and does not want to start a riot.

However, the border people have been in the border for a long time and are wild and cunning in character. They always find all kinds of strange reasons to refuse and delay work.

He thought it was fake information.

Two officers and soldiers chased after him.

…………

Hundreds of arrows flew out of the merceration.

The people of Xixia were in chaos.

They also brought shields, but they carried fewer shields, and they didn't expect that they would have time to organize defenses with shields.

Dozens of people fell down in the blink of an eye.

"Retreat, retreat," the leader shouted anxiously from behind.

Hundreds of people retreated one after another, but more than forty people fell down. The main reason was that everyone was nervous and lost their accuracy. Otherwise, three to four waves of arrows would be enough to knock down one hundred Xixia soldiers.

The leader had a gloomy face and made a judgment in his mind.

There is no clever idea, but you can still think of it with a simple judgment.

First of all, the bows and arrows in the hands of these villagers were very sharp, not ordinary mulberry bows. Among the more than 40 people who fell, two soldiers of the Capture Army were wearing solid armor and stabbed in, killing their two subordinates.

There were not many people in the village, otherwise there would have been only one hundred bows and arrows shooting. In addition, the village wall was so long, so three or four waves of arrows were shot, but only a few dozen men were killed.

He made a wrong judgment on this one.

But he guessed right next time that they were villagers, with little practical experience, faced strong enemies, and were nervous, so they were not accurate enough.

Li Sangou's face in the village was also gloomy. The only thing that made him feel very unhappy. After thinking about it, he said, "Prepare the second plan."

As he said this, many old men, young men and women emerged from the village. There was nothing to do. Ding Zhuang was not enough. Wang Wei and the others were rushing back. Even the remaining Ding Zhuang had some other uses, so they had to let the old men, young men and women take the Sangmu bow and get on.

However, the enemy did not launch an attack, but instead assigned more than 100 people to the back of the mountain. Then he launched an attack on the mountain village again.

Wang Ju was also busy, and he kept running back and forth.

Ding Zhuang felt nervous, and the only women and teenagers were old and weak, but they were very experienced and did not panic.

"You stand here, he stands there." Wang Ju kept saying similar words.

Although there are many clutches, they cannot be messed up. One clutch must be one clutch, no matter what kind of archer it is, and then another clutch can place a spear soldier. If the enemy wants to attack the camp, he must climb over the wall, so he can use a spear to stab him.

Fortunately, the enemy stopped and gave the village time to organize. Fortunately, I had practiced several times before and gained some experience.

But it may not be good news. The enemy stops not to attack, but to wait for news behind the mountain. Once they are allowed to climb any earthen mountain, condescendingly, and launch an attack on both sides, the village will be broken in an instant.

"Don't be nervous, look, we have killed dozens of their soldiers. Maybe we can kill them all. Their armor, weapons, and horses are a huge fortune."

Although most of them came from poor men, they also had weapons, leather armor. One leather armor was taken down for a little bit of seam, and it was a warm leather jacket. As for dozens of more expensive horses, don't think about it.

"Where are people who return to the mother tribe?" someone said.

"They are outside and will arrive immediately and will give these enemies a fatal blow."

"When will they come?"

"It's soon, it'll be here soon, and we still have many arrangements that have not been used."

Wang Ju organized and comforted him, which immediately relieved everyone's nervousness.

The "big brother" of the Imperial City Department squatted on the tree branch, laughing and crying. It seems that he is the boy he is looking for, and may also be the "expert" Cheng Kan is looking for.

If so, how can I get a job with the official family? Even the little prodigy of Yang Yi would not be so evil.

The enemy turned to the back of the mountain.

They chose the West Mountain, which is very short. However, it still makes these enemy soldiers depressed.

Although the mountain is not high, it is very steep.

They didn't know the inside story in the middle. When building the village wall, Wang Ju carefully looked around the village. Then he instructed the villagers to dig out the two mountains and use this soil to make the village wall. Just now, the mud on the mountain was a bit sticky. It is unknown whether it was suitable for clay for the city wall. However, the clay soil must be more chewy than the non-stick soil. The mud dug out made the wall and the dug out formed a steep slope. Although people can still climb up, it will work when it is critical.

It works now.

Whether it is steep or not, go up.

More than a hundred people began to climb up.

Seeing half of the people climbing to the steep slope, Wang Laoliu shouted: "Let it go!"

A dozen or so young men emerged from the miscellaneous trees, raised the big stones that had been prepared early and smashed them down. After only three or four hits, thirty-four Western Xia soldiers were smashed to death and fell into a pool of blood.

The road was blocked, and the group helped the injured, waded through the stream and fled back with difficulty.

The leader's face was even more gloomy. Needless to say, when they came to attack Wangjiazhai, someone had already revealed the news. But this was not easy to investigate. Most of his subordinates were recruiting mercenaries, but serving soldiers, which was the kind of military system that served the people in their spare time and soldiers in wartime.

Hundreds of people came from various villages and villages along the border. Most of these villages had contact with merchants of the Song Dynasty. God knows how the news was leaked.

If this is the case, then time will be even more undesirable. If the village joins forces with the officers and soldiers, he will bring fewer subordinates and the major issues will be gone.

He is not Wang Ju after all, and he doesn't know the general trend of the two countries.

The situation in Xixia was a bit chaotic, and the Song Dynasty was also not as good as it was. Zhao Zhen got sick from time to time. That minister had something to do to manage the northwest? The stability of the border was a great achievement, and even Cheng Kan would have such an idea. It was precisely because of this situation that the Zhu family and Wang ** had never thought of asking for help from the officers and soldiers.

With this feeling, he did not think much and ordered an attack again.

But this time I was even more careful. Forty or fifty soldiers in front were holding shields for protection, while soldiers behind were rushing up one after another.

But he was in a bad mood. No matter how much he gained after the war, the matter was too big. He sacrificed dozens of his subordinates in two attacks. How to explain when he went back. Of course, the Liangzi became even bigger. As long as he succeeded, he would attack the village, it would be a bloodbath.

The enemy is approaching again.

When Wang Ju saw them taking out a small ball-mounted object and igniting them, he couldn't help but rush and said, "I'll go, this thing is brought too, let's lie down together."

The first time he saw the grenade at this time, the fire caltrop, which was a small ball wrapped in paper. There was a thin iron chain on the outside, which contained gunpowder and caltrops. He ignited it, rotated it a few times with the thin iron chain, and used the throwing force generated during rotation to shoot it out with force.

At this time, the gunpowder formula is not prepared. The charcoal powder, nitrate and sulfur are one-to-one formulas, so the explosion power is insufficient. But I know that the sealing property is not very lethal during the explosion, but the caltrops will be shot out during the explosion. The second killing is far better than the first killing.

However, it is not a magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

In fact, later, the original mines, torpedoes, and artillery appeared in the Song Dynasty, which played a certain role, but due to technical reasons, the effect was not too great.

Even if the technology keeps up, it may not be able to be strong.

The weakness of the Song Dynasty was not because of backward weapons, but because of the advanced weapons, nor was it morale. For example, in the battles of Haoshuichuan, Chenjiagu, and Junziguan, although they were defeated, they all showed bloody courage and fought to the end, but no one surrendered.

It is not the number of soldiers in the Song Dynasty. The number of soldiers in the number of cold weapons was the dynasty with the largest number of soldiers.

It is not because there are generals. There are many famous generals in the Song Dynasty. Even during the period when Song Renzong was under the dark, there were famous generals such as Zhang Kang and Di Qing. Later, more powerful Wang Shao and Zhang Yu appeared.

The people are not weak. The people of the Song Dynasty should have better military power than the Tang Dynasty. First of all, life in the Song Dynasty was better than that in the Tang Dynasty. People rarely had night blindness, which led to night wars as common as daily in the history of the Song Dynasty's wars. There were also many martial arts associations among the people.

It may be because of lack of horses, but this is not an important factor. If that happens, Zhu Chongba, who was born in a beggar, was in a group of suffering people, and how could he be? Not only did we have no horses, we also had no arm armor, and we didn’t have divine arms! In fact, it is really not important whether we are not a horse, but the system is important.

Even Wang Ju, who came from different time and space, did not want to touch military strategists, which shows how tragic systems of the Song Dynasty cheated on people.

However, due to confidentiality, the Song Dynasty never obtained the craftsmanship of the Xixia sword, and this grenade technology allowed the Xixia people to obtain it.

Wang Ju had heard of it, but he saw it for the first time.

The fire caltrops shot into the village.
