One hundred and fourteenth chapter to fight fast (two)
Guo Rupan's bandit name Huntianxing is only one word different from Mantianxing. The bandit name of Mantianxing sounds reliable, and Huntianxing comes from nowhere. Recently, Guo Rupan was very depressed. He had originally gained great success west of Guankou, but in an instant, the situation suddenly changed. His Guankou camp was captured by Jingzhou archers, and more than a thousand cavalry led by himself were intercepted by Lin Chunhong and could not return to the camp. Before receiving Gao Yingxiang's military order, Guo Rupan was ready to disturb Lin Chunhong's food route and avenge a single arrow.
What's more, Lin Chunhong's grain transport team made great efforts and continuously transported various weapons and grain to Guankou along the official road. This was tantamount to calling Guo Rupan to attack the grain protection team.
Guo Rupan was quite cautious and kept sending out a visit to find out Lin Chunhong's strength. When he learned that the grain protection team was Lin Chunhong's preparation camp, he was overjoyed and concluded: Put the bid and sell the first one!
A wide official road passes through Linshan Pass. Both sides of Linshan Pass are low hills. Although the hills are low, they are relatively steep. It is not difficult for people to climb over the hills. If you want to lead a horse to climb over these hills, it is basically impossible.
The weather in May was already very hot. The Jingzhou archers and grain transport team was rushing on the road in the scorching sun. The team was winding for several miles. There were constant shouts of "Hey...yo..." along the road, which was that the vehicles were trapped in a pit and the soldiers were pushing the cart. The official road was disrepaired and it was not easy to walk. In addition to the shouting, there were also the neighing of cows, horses and mules, which seemed to be very disturbing and lively.
The grain transport team's horse exploration team was even further away than the Chebuying camp, reaching twenty miles! This is Lin Chunhong's rigid rule. However, the number of archers in Jingzhou is limited, so how can we find out the few people hidden in the hills? Look, on the hills on both sides of Linshan Pass, several people hid themselves behind the huge rocks and were watching the camp.
"More than 1,200 people, almost no one is wearing armor..."
"More than two hundred vehicles, probably thousands of stones of food and countless weapons..."
"There are nearly 600 cattle and horses, haha, these Jingzhou archers are so wealthy..."
The people in the camp were very experienced. Soon, they understood the strength of the grain transport team clearly.
"Let's go and go find Shuai Guo immediately. This ticket is completely done, haha..."
Several people disappeared in the hills.
At the foot of Linshan Pass, the general's order was quickly conveyed: "Rest in place!"
All the vehicles were gathered together, and the soldiers hid in the shadows of the vehicles to avoid the sun. After breathing evenly, they took out dry food and water and started chewing slowly.
A general was patrolling the crowd. When he saw a soldier eating voraciously, he couldn't help but walk forward, kicked the soldier and scolded, "Eat less, be careful that he would be too hard and his stomach hurts!"
The soldier saluted with food in his mouth, laughed and couldn't speak.
The soldier next to him said on his behalf: "The more Erwazi eats, the more powerful he is, and the braver he is in the battle!"
The general smiled and continued to patrol forward.
Suddenly, a sound of horse hooves suddenly rang out, and the probing horse was far away and shouted: "Enemy attack!"
When the general heard this, he immediately ordered: "Forge a round formation!"
After giving the order, the general couldn't help laughing and said, "Guo Rupan is finally here..."
The archers jumped up from the ground like springs, and under the guidance of the long line, they became busy in an orderly manner.
Some of the archers lifted the shelter on the vehicle, took out the hidden plate armor inside, and hurriedly put it on themselves. The other archers did not penetrate the armor and immediately put thick iron boards on the vehicle, instantly turning more than 70 grain trucks into shield trucks. Some of the archers pushed the shield trucks to their designated positions, wrapped all the people and formed a circular array.
While the archers were nervously preparing for the pre-war period, Lin Chunyi was asking for details about the horse exploration.
Lin Chunyi? Isn’t the commander of the Preparatory Battalion Cheng Shu?
Yes, it’s Lin Chunyi. The current grain transport team is Hu Xiao Camp, and the preparation camp is quietly staying in Guankou Camp!
The horse explored the horse and said, "More than a thousand cavalry are more than ten miles away, with a big word Guo printed on the banner..."
Lin Chunyi nodded constantly, and saw that the archers were ready to fight, he sneered: "Come on, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
...
Guo Rupan arrived so fast. In less than two quarters of an hour, a large mass of sand and dust emerged from the horizon. In the dust of the sky, a fully armed knight could be seen vaguely. The sound of the galloping taps of thousands of horses hit the earth, and the earth trembled.
The soldiers of the Tiger Roar Camp widened their eyes and looked at the cavalry regiment that was gradually approaching, and their hearts also fluctuated with the sound of tapping.
This was the first time that the archers in Jingzhou competed directly with the cavalry. Not only were the soldiers nervous, but even Lin Chunyi was unsure. He didn't know whether the current measures could stop the cavalry.
Nearly one mile away from the circular formation, Guo Rupan ordered his subordinates to stop advancing. Before rushing to the formation, the cavalry needed to recover their horsepower.
Guo Rupan rode on the tall horse, frowned tightly, watched the round formation for a long time, turned to a knight and shouted, "Didn't you say there is no armor? Where did the armor of the dog officer and soldier come from?"
The knight replied hurriedly: "I did not see the armor just now!"
Guo Rupan glared at the knight fiercely, turned around and continued to watch, ignoring the trembling knight.
After a long time, Guo Rupan cursed: "Nainai, Lin Chunhong is really willing to spend money, and even his mother's grain protection team pierced the armor!"
He paused, turned his head and shouted, "Brothers, have you seen it? Break through the turtle shell, it is full of food, kill the dog officers and soldiers, and the armor on their bodies is yours!"
The knights looked eager and raised their swords and guns and shouted: "Kill officers and soldiers! Kill officers and soldiers!"
Guo Rupan was quite satisfied with his morale and immediately sent more than 200 knights to test the round formation.
With a command, more than 200 knights came out, and the whip crackled, urging the horses to rush towards the circular formation at full speed.
The knights' heads were almost close to the horse's neck, trying to narrow the target as much as possible, close, 350 steps...300 steps...250 steps...150 steps...
Oh? Where is the crossbowman in Tiger Roar Camp? Why don’t you shoot?
The crossbowmen held steel crossbows and couldn't help but look at the whistle general. The whistle general widened his eyes and looked at the knight who was getting closer, and almost fire shot out from his eyes.
Without the orders of the general, no crossbowman shot out the crossbow arrow!
After several major battles, the Tiger Roar Camp finally became an elite!
The knights are closer, eighty steps!
"Archer, shoot!" The roar of the whistle generals finally rang out, and the archers immediately bent their bows and shot at the gradually growing knights.
Unexpectedly, a whistle sounded, the knights turned around and ran to the side. The bows and arrows were basically gone, not harming the knights! The knights went around and returned to the back of the formation.
The arrows shot out also appear sparse. As the number of steel crossbows becomes more and more equipped, the number of archers has dropped to half of the crossbows.
When Guo Rupan saw this, he felt very proud and sneered: "If you put on the armor, will you not be a grain protection team? It's still the silver-like gun tip!"
Guo Rupan sent more than 200 knights and ordered: "Continue to disturb the dogs and soldiers, and we will succeed in one blow!"
This time, the whistle generals of the Tiger Roar Camp were too lazy to even order the archers to shoot. The knights walked around in front of the formation and returned to the back of the formation.
This and this continued several times, and the soldiers of the Tiger Roar Camp were already familiar with the sao knights. However, the soldiers were highly nervous and almost soaked in sweat. If they continued like this, the combat effectiveness of the Tiger Roar Camp would be greatly reduced.
