Since ancient times, talented people have been born in the Red Chamber

Chapter 891 Next, I’m afraid the two generals will have to continue to work hard (first update)
Chapter 900

The smoke of gunpowder has not cleared away, and from time to time, the sounds of fighting and stubborn resistance can still be heard. However, such individual heroic resistance only brings death and has no effect at all.

"A few days ago, we were still thinking about when we would be able to go out of the city and have a good time doing activities. Unexpectedly, in just a few days, we could actually ride horses and see these people who were so arrogant and domineering before. Liao Xia allied forces became prisoners of our Great Song Dynasty..." Xu Zhao was so terrified that he couldn't sit still on his horse with excitement.

Wang Daguan is not much better. He has been held back in Youzhou City for a month. Now that he is out of the city, he feels like he is out of prison. Even though he is less than a stone's throw away from the city wall, he still I feel that the free air is so fresh and smells so good.

Even though there was a strong smell of blood and burning smoke, Wang Daguan was still enjoying it.

"My lord, you are really strong-willed. You actually blocked the hundreds of thousands of Liao and Xia coalition forces for more than a month with this small city of Youzhou, and even forced Yelu Hongji of the Liao Kingdom to change his commander for it. ..." Zhe Keshi beside him also said with a lot of emotion.

This sentence is full of flattery, but is it not telling the truth?After all, facing hundreds of thousands of tigers and wolves, anyone would be under great pressure.

You must know that there are not many elite frontier troops in the city, and more rely on the coordinated operations of those Xiang troops to stop the crazy attack of the Liaoxia coalition forces for more than a month.

Even so, there were over [-] wounded and [-] dead. In today's battle, nearly a thousand soldiers were killed, which shows how difficult this battle was.

"Fortunately, my brother captured the Liao Army's Beida Camp as quickly as possible and came to the rescue in time. Otherwise, if time had been delayed a little longer, the casualties of the soldiers would have been even more severe." Thinking of the previous battle, Master Zhong and I couldn't help but feel lingering fear.

"Yeah, your elder brother has a better vision. At that time, I was preparing to attack Xi Daying, but I didn't think about it. I agreed to attack Xi Daying, but he actually missed it, which made me very angry. Later, Only then did I realize that the situation in the East City is severe." Zhe Keshi nodded in agreement.

"To be honest, I was too careless..." Wang Yang said with a sad smile. "After more than a month of training, I have become accustomed to seeing the Liao-Xia coalition forces repeatedly being frustrated and fleeing. I always feel that with such elite equipment and the protection of Yuanyou's trebuchet, they can at least support a lot of troops. time."

"But I forgot that these Liaoxia coalition forces are not vegetarians. In the past, we relied on the defense of the city to stop the enemy so easily. Once we go out of the city to fight in the field, it is equivalent to putting ourselves on the same level as the enemy. superior……"

"My lord, you don't have to blame yourself. If it wasn't for your lord's plan, how could our army have achieved such a great victory, wiped out more than [-] enemies, and captured more than [-] enemies, and this is still under the condition that the strength of the two sides is similar."

"Besides, in battle, there are no immortals..." At this point, Zhe Keshi couldn't help but sigh. "For more than a hundred years, there are not a few children of the Zhe family and the Zhong family who have sacrificed their lives for our Song Dynasty..."

"If it wasn't for you, my lord, I, Da Song, wouldn't have fought so many proud wars in the past few decades."

"Okay, there's no need to flatter me. It's just fate. The important thing is that the soul of my Great Song Army is still there, and the blood is still there." Wang Yang took a deep breath and sighed leisurely.

I remember that decades later in another historical time and space, when the Northern Song Dynasty was about to perish, it was the Western Army of the Great Song Dynasty, led by Zhejia and Zhongjia, who still had the fighting spirit to turn the tide. As a result, because of Zhao Ji and his son’s Stupid, buried the Northern Song Dynasty in the hands of the Jin Dynasty.

But now, after all, the young emperor is not like in history. After coming to power, he overthrew everything about the empress dowager Gao Taotao. Instead, he formed a front alliance with Gao Taotao.

With a slow but firm pace, the comprehensive competitiveness of the Song Dynasty was gradually improved. Especially because of the continuous wars on the Shaanxi Road, improving the military strength of the Song Dynasty became the theme of Zhao Xu's rule.

Coupled with the help of Wang Yang, a BUG-level inventor, the Yuanyou Nu and Yuanyoujia, which have a simple production process and are extremely cheap, have been trial-produced from the beginning and have been promoted to the entire army of the Song Dynasty.

Under Wang Yang's repeated reminders, the production of Yuanyou crossbow and Yuanyoujia is no longer handed over to various parties as in the past, but is completely supervised by the Song Dynasty Military Supervision, and then distributed to various places. power.

In this way, it is guaranteed that a series of core technologies such as Yuanyou coking technique and Yuanyou steelmaking technique will not flow out. Secondly, resources are concentrated, which reduces costs and prevents officials from all over the country from wanting to make a fortune. .

Now, Zhao Ji has started to mention to Wang Yang that the Military Weapons Supervisor is trial-producing steel bows, hoping that in the future, the standard war bows of the Song Dynasty will also be able to use soft steel.

Wang Yang expressed his welcome and encouragement to this, and also proposed to Zhao Ji the concept of using mild steel as the main material of the bow arm and making it composite with other materials.

If it can be successful, then the production of Da Song's long-range weapons in the future will completely break away from the cumbersome process, time-consuming and huge cost in the past.

As for the core components of the Yuanyou trebuchet, the Ordnance Inspector has been able to produce qualified metal core components, which can greatly improve the durability and wear resistance of the Yuanyou trebuchet and provide a basis for future large-scale production. condition.

The Great Song's emphasis on military equipment and the improvement of weapons will inevitably increase the military strength of the Great Song. Compared with the Liao Kingdom, which is now like the sunset in the west, the vigorous Song Dynasty is thriving.Under the ebb and flow, then, Song Dynasty's dream of capturing the sixteen prefectures of Yanyun will no longer be a dream, but an achievable goal.

"Although our army won a great victory in this battle, the strength of the Liao-Xia coalition is still there. Yelu Jinping is worthy of being a general of the Liao Kingdom. Under such a disadvantage, he can still lead half of the troops to fight and leave, which shows that the Liao-Xia coalition The morale has not been exhausted." In Youzhou City, Zhong Shidao, who had already rushed back, had a faint look of worry on his face.

"We won this battle suddenly, and we were caught off guard by Yelu Jinping. But if Xiao Shen finds out about Youzhou, he will definitely send troops back to help. At that time, what should we do?"

Having said this, everyone's eyes fell on Wang Yang.After all, this guy is the coach, and he was able to win this battle precisely because of his planning. What should be done next, you are right to ask him.

"Next, I'm afraid we will have to continue to work hard for the two generals and the reinforcements you have led." After Wang Yang thought for a while, he rolled his eyes in admiration and walked to the huge map. Swipe and pull.

Where the finger landed was the three forks in the northeast direction of Youzhou...
