Datang: Li Shimin begged me to rebel

Yu Ling's face was a little frightened. The reason why the bed crossbow is not so powerful on the frontal battlefield is more for deterrence, because its rate of fire is not very fast, especially a large bed crossbow, the more powerful it is The bed crossbow fires more slowly.

Because it takes several people to go through the winding wheel slowly to be able to wind up, and within the range of the bed crossbow, often it can shoot two or three rounds of siege soldiers at most before they have reached the bottom of the city wall and entered the shooting blind spot of the bed crossbow.

But what kind of attack speed is Datang?Not only has an abnormal range but also an abnormal rate of fire?Are their soldiers born with supernatural power?Otherwise, why can you string the crossbow at such a fast speed?

If the bed crossbow had such a winding speed, the threat would not be the same as before.

Just look at the forward troops in Goguryeo now. Almost everyone has a look of panic on their faces. The rate of fire is too fast!So fast that they couldn't bear it.

Because bows and arrows can also be protected with shields, but bed crossbows have no protective ability.

Almost all shields are vulnerable to it, and even if the bed crossbow brushes past a person's body, it may take away a large piece of flesh. Such wounds are fatal on the battlefield .

"Withdraw the troops! Withdraw the troops! Ming Jin withdraws!" Yu Ling roared and gave the order directly.

With a bed crossbow with such an attack speed, a thousand soldiers of their forwards rushing through the distance of 500 meters, even at the fastest speed, it is estimated that hundreds of people will die, but there are still bows and arrows after the distance is close.

He didn't believe that Datang only had bed crossbows. The bed crossbows of Datang were so perverted that the bows and arrows couldn't be too bad.

The sound of Mingjin withdrawing troops quickly resounded across the battlefield. Goguryeo's soldiers began to retreat backwards, and Goguryeo's large troops also began to retreat. Almost when their sound of Mingjin withdrawing troops resounded across the battlefield, Li Daozong ordered stopped.

There is no point in continuing to shoot. In this kind of battlefield, attacking the mind is the most important thing. Killing a few people is not very effective. If the number of enemies is counted as a whole, it is estimated that there are as many as one hundred thousand, but they only have ten thousand.

Therefore, it is difficult to make the enemy retreat by killing and wounding alone. It is enough for the two sides to maintain a tacit understanding.

And now let him know the weight of Datang, and the rest, he should know it by himself.

Seeing that Datang stopped shooting, even in the process of their retreat, it would be no problem to shoot at least one more round with the power of Datang's bed crossbow, but Datang stopped.

The battlefield not far away may not be called a battlefield. After all, only Goguryeo soldiers were killed or injured here.

Many Goguryeo soldiers were still howling on the battlefield, Yu Ling was silent for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Order the auxiliary soldiers to enter the field, remove all weapons and equipment, and save people. If Datang attacks, withdraw, if Datang If you don’t attack, bring the corpses back.”

"Yes!"

Auxiliary soldiers are non-elite soldiers who did miscellaneous work in various ancient armies. There are armies in various countries, and Koguryo naturally has them. At present, except for the Tang Dynasty, there are no medical soldiers, health workers, etc. among the soldiers of other countries. statement.

But are there military doctors and medical officers in the army?have!To be precise, although they are called military doctors, they are all doctors who have been transferred and doctors who have been transferred from the medical department of the imperial court to serve as medical officers with the army.

However, it is impossible for them to supplement the various units, but to concentrate on marching with the large units, because there are not so many medical officers or military doctors who can spread to the grassroots units.

Only Datang has trained a large number of grassroots medical officers and soldiers because of the "Military Medical Manual".

These officers and soldiers are the same as the barefoot doctors who used the "Barefoot Doctor's Handbook" to treat diseases. They know it but don't know why. They were trained to rescue trauma on the battlefield and provide emergency rescue. As for the follow-up treatment, there are also military doctors in Datang Those who accompany the army will be handed over to these military doctors at that time.

And Goguryeo can only save people with these auxiliary soldiers.

Just as Yu Ling thought, when these auxiliary soldiers entered the field, Datang probably thought it was a waste of crossbow arrows, or simply maintained a tacit understanding and did not attack these soldiers who were picking up the corpses and wounded.

Seeing that Datang did not attack, these auxiliary soldiers became bolder and quickly began to act on the battlefield.

And Yu Ling's military doctor accompanying the army also quickly rushed into the battlefield and started emergency rescue.

After they got all the wounded and corpses out of the battlefield, the city of Datang remained calm, as if there was no reaction.

Yu Ling withdrew his troops, and retreated for more than ten miles before setting up camp.

There are several villages nearby. Most of the people in the villages have run away, and Yu Ling didn't care about those who didn't run away. Naturally, someone took care of them. Anyway, there were almost no outsiders left in the village and nearby.

"General, the casualty statistics are out. 430 people were killed and 86 were injured. Whether they can survive now depends on the follow-up treatment." Soon the general in charge of logistics came to report.

Yu Ling: "..."

Just a face-to-face meeting, before the attack was under the city, more than 1000 people were killed in the 430-man vanguard?The casualty rate has already exceeded [-]%. If it weren't for the fact that it happened too quickly, their army would have collapsed long ago.

That is to say, Datang's attack was too fast, so fast that these soldiers didn't react at all, so there was no collapse or anything like that. They probably didn't know how many people they died.

"I see. Now we know about Datang's army. Well, I asked someone to write a report, saying that our army and Datang's army engaged in a battle. There were more than 500 casualties and three cities were occupied. At present We are confronting the Tang army." Yu Ling pondered for a while, and then said.

"Yes!"

As for record, it depends on how you write it.

Is there any problem with Yu Ling's records?No, what he wrote are all facts, and these three cities were indeed captured by him, and no one can criticize them.

Are there more than 500 casualties?Taking three cities only caused more than 500 casualties. This is a big victory, okay?

As for the next step of the battle, Yu Ling pondered for a while, and it seemed that the old patriarch was right, he had to be steady, and it was normal for the battle line to be anxious.

Yu Ling had an idea here, although Li Daozong didn't know it, but he didn't bother to pay attention to it, he just carried out his own affairs step by step.

For example, first hire these refugees who fled to this county.

However, at the beginning, Datang couldn't hire directly.

Still the same sentence, your kindness to them is like sugar, once you eat it, it will disappear.But the harm done to them is an unforgettable wound, and there will be scars after they are healed.

So let them have their scars first and then give them candy.
