Silver Overlord - Chapter 882
[Chapter 847]
Hearing Yan Liqiang’s words for everyone to rest, Zhao Dachuan and the others immediately became anxious, “Master Superintendent, the enemies are coming, why…”
“Hahaha, Master Superintendent wants us to relax, those Satu people. It rushed from Xingxing Lake and ran for hundreds of miles. There were also harassment by the Ranger Militia along the way. If it really came to us, it would have been sleepy and exhausted. It was just for us. Let’s rest for an hour to recharge our batteries. The team of people almost rushed in front of us…” Gong Tieshan said with a hahaha laugh, and the other generals also reacted instantly, looking at Yan Liqiang with admiration.
“Why did these Sandu people only send 40,000 people here?” Wang Naiwu said with a frown.
“The reason why the Shatu people sent 40,000 people here this time is that they don’t want us to rush to the Xingxing Lake to meet and fight with us all the time. If others send few people, they may not be able to rush in front of us. It was eaten by those rangers and militia groups. If they came out, the distance from Xingxing Lake here is not too far away. Not only is it not suitable for a long-distance attack by the army, but also the defense of Xingxing Lake will be empty, and it may be blocked by those rangers. And the militia group took advantage of it, so they sent 40,000 people over, which can not only overwhelm us in numbers, but also deter the rangers and militia along the way, and can smoothly rush to us to compete with us…” Shi Changfeng explained, “I estimate that there are no more than 100,000 sand troopers and horses around Xingxing Lake at the moment. These 40,000 people account for almost half of the sand troopers who can fight…
” Yan Liqiang, who was on Caiyun Chasing the Moon, squinted his eyes, looked at the northwest direction in front, and said in his heart, finally here.
Today’s weather is good, with blue sky and white clouds, high autumn air, and the golden eagle with fire eyes hovering among the clouds in the sky. On the ground, except for Yan Liqiang’s super eyesight, most people can’t even see the figure of the golden eagle with fire eyes.
Feeling the peeping from the sky, Yan Liqiang raised his head, looked at the sky and smiled. In the sky above his team, in the distance, there were two more black dots. Those two black dots were exactly from It came from the northwest, and it seems that the Sandu people are also very careful this time.
Yan Liqiang just moved in his heart. The golden eagle with fire eyes flew out from the clouds like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, he killed one black spot, and the other black spot turned around and wanted to fly away, but the black spot was there. In front of an air overlord like the Golden Eagle with Fire Eyes, there was not much room for struggle, and before it could fly far, the Golden Eagle with Fire Eyes rushed up, just a claw, the feathers flew away, a scream, and the second black spot was immediately cleared. The feeling of being watched disappeared, and the sky became quiet again…
Yan Liqiang also dismounted, and handed Caiyun Chasing the Moon to Hu Haihe, while he was patrolling the army. This was the first battle, and for many sergeants, perhaps It will be a little nervous. After all, from the perspective of the number of people, the number of those who rushed in is more than Yan Liqiang, which will put pressure on some recruits. However, seeing Yan Liqiang calmly patrolling the troops, many still feel nervous. People, all of a sudden not so nervous.
The veterans each took out the concentrates such as dried tofu prepared for the rhinoceros.
They started to feed the horses, but they were not more than two minutes full. After feeding the horses, the veterans sat on the ground to rest, checked their equipment, and ate something for themselves. One by one, they were gearing up for the battle.
At this time, the special presence of the 12,000-odd cavalry archers in the Longya Army was revealed. The soldiers of the other battalions would inevitably have some noise when they were resting, but the cavalry archers were like iron. The silence, everyone is doing the same thing, one standard, doing what the veterans are doing.
This kind of scene has been seen many times by other battalions during the march in the past few days. In addition to being shocked by the discipline and well-trainedness of these cavalry archers at the beginning, the soldiers and horses of those battalions became more and more I’m used to it, but today, when the five battalions of cavalry archers were sitting on the ground to rest, they began to take out their leather bow bags one by one, open them, and take out their war bows from the bow bags to check the oil. At the time, the whole team suddenly made a huge noise and agitation.
Since leaving Baishiguan, the cavalry archers of these five battalions have never taken out the war bows they are carrying. He was never easy to show on his body. Even if a colonel and sergeant were curious about what the bow they were equipping would look like, he was rejected by the five battalions of cavalry archers with discipline, because the rules of the cavalry archers were like this. The Zhongzhan bow is not a private weapon. It can only be used during training and combat. This rule is still inherited from the archery club.
Except for Yan Liqiang and the five battalions of cavalry archers, as well as a few lieutenant officers in the Longya Army, among the more than 20,000 people, no one else has seen what their war bows look like. Come on, looking at the bow bags carried by the more than 10,000 cavalry archers, many people are secretly amazed, thinking that how can Qiyun County be equipped with so many war bows, so many war bows, even if the entire Ganzhou It’s not enough to get all the war bows in the army. Isn’t the supervisor just getting some rudimentary bamboo bows to bluff people?
Although the bamboo bow has some lethality at close range, it is not very suitable on the real battlefield, especially for cavalry. The speed is also fast, which means that if you use a bamboo bow to deal with cavalry on the battlefield, you need to take great risks, the shooting time is shorter, and the bamboo bow is more susceptible to moisture and the surrounding environment and temperature. The service life is not long, and after using the bow arm a few times, it will become weak. Except for a few beginner bows and arrows from poor families who practice with bamboo bows, there are almost no bamboo bows in the regular army of the entire Han Empire.
…
The war is coming, Zhao Dachuan of the Ganzhou Army is taking Lei Meng and several other captains to patrol and cheer in his army. He didn’t expect to walk, Zhao Dachuan heard a burst of noise from his army. There was a huge noise and commotion, and the sound of noise and commotion came from the sergeants at the place where the cavalry archers of the Longya Army were handed over. He was making a lot of noise when he was planting, let me see what’s going on, is there someone deliberately making trouble, arrest me, I’ll see how many heads he has, grandma’s, I was still slapping it in front of the supervisor. The chest said that our Ganzhou Army people will never slack on the battlefield, so you can make this for me at this time?”
A few personal soldiers around him heard it, and immediately ran over, and the personal soldiers ran away in the blink of an eye. Come back, “Mr. Qi, it’s not that someone is making a noise, it’s…”
“But what, don’t be hesitant?”
“It’s the cavalry archers of the Dragon Fang Army that took out their bows for maintenance, The sergeant on our side couldn’t help but be surprised when he saw it, it was a little noisy and restless!”
“Isn’t it just a bamboo bow, it’s all a group of veteran eggs, what’s the fuss about, such a big shout makes the Longya Army think We are watching their jokes, do you still want to chop off your heads and change the grassland?” Zhao Dachuan reprimanded immediately.
“This… Longya Army didn’t take out a bamboo bow…” The personal soldiers who came back to restore Ming looked strange.
Zhao Dachuan was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief, “It’s not a bamboo bow, what kind of bow is that, is it also a war bow in the army like the one we use? How is this possible? A few, apart from enough for the archers of the Ganzhou army to change their clothes, there are not a few left…”
“It’s not a war bow in our army, that bow… is a bit strange, I have never seen it before, and I don’t know how to say it. You can see it when you go over there!”
Hearing the personal soldiers beside him say so, Zhao Dachuan and a few captains around him became curious all of a sudden, looked at each other one by one, and directly moved towards The place where the cavalry archers of the Dragon Fang Army were located walked over.
When Zhao Dachuan and a few people came to the resting place of the Longya Army cavalry archers, when they saw the war bows in the hands of the cavalry archers, even with Zhao Dachuan’s many years of experience in the army, they couldn’t help but open their mouths and be dumbfounded.
In front of Zhao Dachuan, the bows in the hands of the hundreds of Dragon Tooth Army cavalry archers are all the same. It is a bow that Zhao Dachuan has never seen before, not a bamboo bow, nor an ordinary war bow in the Ganzhou army. The bow is a brand new type of bow. On both sides of the bow arm, there are actually two metal circles the size of a fist. The bow arm seems… it seems to be metal too. , The bow string of the war bow is placed on the pulleys at both ends of the bow arm. The whole war bow is dark, simple and atmospheric, revealing an indescribable beauty and murderous aura.
As soon as they saw such a war bow, Zhao Dachuan, who was from the military, and several Ganzhou military academies around him suddenly straightened their eyes, and their eyes lit up. For officers who came from the military, seeing this A new type of weapon, BMW, sword, armor, etc., is like a drunkard who sees fine wine, and a lecher who sees beautiful women. The temptation is simply hard to resist…
and then move towards these cavalry archers in the Dragon Fang Army. Looking at it, Zhao Dachuan took a breath of cold air. My God, as far as I can see, the entire Longya Army’s cavalry archers are equipped with such a new type of war bow that has never been seen before.
“Ahem…Little brother, I don’t think I’ve ever seen your bow before…Can you…can you lend me a look!” Zhao Dachuan rubbed his hands together and smiled at a cavalry archer in front of him. The ordinary cavalry said that the vast majority of these cavalry archers are disciples of the Yan Liqiang Archery Society, and their relationship with Yan Liqiang is extraordinary. Coupled with their special status, even if they are the commanders of the Ganzhou Army, Zhao Dachuan also didn’t dare to give orders to the people in the Longya Army at will, because he couldn’t find it for himself.
“My lord, please forgive me, according to the rules of our army, this bow is mine, and I cannot lend it to others to touch and observe it!” Although the cavalry archer was not of the same grade and spoke politely, he still shook his head and did not have the battle on his hand. The bow was handed over, but instead he looked at Zhao Dachuan with a vigilant expression, and squeezed the war bow in his hand tightly, as if he was afraid of being snatched away.
Zhao Dachuan was a little embarrassed, his eyes were still fixed on the strange war bow, and he swallowed, “Cough, we are also friendly troops, people on the same boat, and I also listened to the orders of your supervisors. , Look, this Captain Lei is still the nephew of the Chief Inspector, and he is all his own. Let me borrow it to see what matters!”
“Rule is a rule, please don’t embarrass me!” The soldier was still firm. Shaking his head.
Just when Zhao Dachuan’s heart was burning but he didn’t know what to say, Yan Liqiang’s voice finally came over, “You guys, just show the war bows in your hands to Commander Zhao and them…”
Zhao Dachuan As soon as he turned his head here, he saw that Yan Liqiang was walking over with Shi Changfeng, Shen Teng, and Shi Dafeng…
