The development of a weapon that can effectively restrain the cavalry can be considered as a temporary dispersal of the haze covering the head of the Qi army, but it takes a victory to truly dispel the haze.
When the barbarians come to harass again, Gu Changfeng, please play. As the recruits seemed to be doing relevant training for the enemy these days, Tai Qi just granted his request.
A big battle is waiting for them, recruits must join the battle as soon as possible, the difference is to become the new force of the army or become an independent army. However, Tai Qigang prefers that the recruits become an independent army under the direct command of Gu Changfeng. In the old days, the generals were majestic and majestic, and no one in the army dared to say anything. But the general was absent for more than two years, even though the barracks hadn't changed much, he didn't dare to guarantee that the hearts of the people would not change. If Gu Changfeng wants to gain a foothold, what he needs is not the shadow of the general, but the record.
So Gu Changfeng brought 1,500 men and horses to fight against the barbarians 800 cavalry. There are cavalry, spearman, shieldman, etc. in this thousand five men. He adjusted after listening to Shen Yanbei's suggestions.
Before leaving, Shen Yanbei warned: "Be careful in everything. If the situation is not right, run quickly."
"Okay." Gu Changfeng pulled the rein and responded.
Everyone was watching, Shen Yanbei was not good to say anything, and said: "Wait for you to come back."
Taking a deep look at him, Gu Changfeng clamped his legs forcefully, controlled the horse and led the team forward.
Shen Yanbei stood there watching the group leave, and some generals sighed: "Master Shen and the son are really deep."
Huh? He hasn't done anything yet, how can he see that their husband's feelings are getting better so quickly? Shen Yanbei smiled embarrassedly and turned to the Military Industry Department. The bow has been handed over to the craftsmen in the barracks. These skilled craftsmen quickly made the bow and are currently making them in batches day and night.
The Ministry of Military Industry is a strong place in the barracks, and other people are not allowed to enter, but he has Tai Qigang's handwriting to freely enter and exit. After learning about all the types of weapons in the barracks, I found that there was no iron brier, so I drew a pattern for the blacksmith to build.
...
"Stop!" Gu Changfeng suddenly raised his hand to stop the army from moving forward. He glanced at the vague figure of the barbarian cavalry on the desolate wasteland before him, his face sank, and said coldly, "The scout will look in the first three directions. If anything is wrong, report it immediately!"
During this period of time, the barbarians kept sending small groups of people to harass them. They usually ran away when they chased them, but today they hang them abnormally behind them, just trying to lure them to go deeper. Gu Changfeng immediately became alert.
It was late autumn at this time, the autumn breeze was icy, and the wasteland was flying with sand and rocks, very depressed. The recruits on standby were ready to move, but Gu Changfeng didn't give an order. The recruits could only maintain the formation temporarily, but the team would riot over time.
"If you don't catch up, the barbarians will run out of sight!"
"Yes, what do the barbarians fight after they run?"
"I have brought all the secret weapons. Why don't you give a lesson to that nasty barbarian cavalry? Wouldn't the two days of training be wasted?"
"The general has its own reason for doing this. Just close your mouth and wait for the order." Zhou Yu scolded. He also felt something was wrong.
Gu Changfeng held the reins and looked forward with a calm face. A black shadow appeared wherever he could see. The barbarian cavalry who was chased by them turned the horse's head!
Gu Changfeng's face condensed, and the scout who was sent out to inquire about the fictitious flew off the horse:
"Report! A barbarian cavalry appeared on the left, the number is about 500, according to our army is less than 20 miles!"
"Report! A barbarian cavalry appeared on the right, about five hundred in number, rushing toward our army!"
"Report! The eight hundred barbarians who were pursuing them suddenly turned back and are coming to our army!"
Upon hearing this, all the recruits were taken aback.
They are... caught the enemy's trap? Also copied by San Bread?
Gu Changfeng pulled on the reins and shouted: "Retreat!" The barbarians are extremely cunning and fool them. The military division has long said that the barbarians can't always come to this trick, and keep splitting up small teams to let them eat. Let them be very careful. After that, there will be the sound of obscurity and confusion, and now they have resorted to new tricks-to lure the enemy deeper!
The fifteenth mixed infantry is simply killing the eighteenth cavalry, and the cavalry is extremely fast, even if they retreat immediately, it is too late! Although Gu Changfeng's face was a bit cold, he did not panic. After observing the wind direction, he calmly commanded the team to retreat to the left of the upwind. When the five hundred barbarian cavalry on the left saw this, they rushed up quickly and were about to catch up with the recruits.
Gu Changfeng immediately shouted: "All horses wear masks and put on a phalanx!" The recruits suddenly had a meal. Everyone hurriedly pulled out a cloth towel from their arms to cover their mouth and nose. The horse was also put on a cloth towel and then posed. With the shield hand in front, the spearman behind, and the knife and axe in the center, the cavalry formed a triangle to meet the enemy.
The violent wind whistled the dry grass and yellow sand, and the recruits who were about to be surrounded by the enemy were all trembling, but when you look closely, it was not because of fear, but of excitement!
"Pick out the cloth and sprinkle!"
Following Gu Changfeng's order, all the recruits skillfully took out a cloth bag, untied it and sprinkled it high in the sky!
Suddenly, a piece of red dust spread, and was swept by the gust of wind, blowing straight towards the barbarians who charged up.
"Cough, cough, cough--" The barbaric cavalry who started shouting "Kill" in barbaric language suddenly changed his complexion, covered his mouth and nose and coughed painfully, while the horse hoof he was sitting on stagnated and he slammed his nose. , Almost kicked out the barbarian cavalry.
At the same time, all the barbarian cavalry rushing forward seemed to have been attacked by an evil spirit, either sticking out their tongues and inhaling, or covering their eyes and screaming, or covering their mouths, nose and coughing heart-piercing lungs. . Their horses were also mad, sneezing or shoveling their front hooves restlessly, and many barbarians were thrown out.
The impact of the cavalry is very terrifying, but the sudden stop of the horses and soldiers in front will cause a major disaster-a series of collisions. The barbarian cavalry behind had no time to brake their horses, and they all smashed together. The real people turned their backs on their horses and mourned them all!
When you were sick and killing you, the recruits swarmed up to harvest the barbarians who were choked by chili powder so that they cried and cried and snotted.
At this time, the five hundred barbarians and the eight hundred cavalry on the right rushed to see their companions being slaughtered by the Qi infantry like they were harvesting Chinese cabbage. The leader of the team was shocked and hurriedly ordered his men to come and rescue. .
"Finalize!" Gu Changfeng held a long bow, which opened like a full moon, and shot a barbarian cavalry under the horse with one arrow.
The recruits did not dare to fall in love with each other, so they gathered together to form a formation and pulled out their secret weapons under Gu Changfeng's order. It was already too late when these barbarian cavalry who caught up found out that they wanted to rein in the cliff. A storm of red dust entered their throats, noses and eyes roughly, while the powder that had fallen on the ground was trampled by horseshoes and mixed with dust...
The barbarian cavalry and their horses smashed to the ground, and the recruits, covering their noses and mouths, raised their swords.
"kill--"
A one-sided killing began.
These recruits never dared to imagine that one day they would harvest the unstoppable barbarian cavalry as crops. But in fact they did it!
When Gu Changfeng recruited soldiers to count the casualties, none of the 1,500 recruits died, and only more than two hundred were slightly injured in the fight.
"Great! We did it!" I don't know who yelled, and the whole team shouted for joy.
"Quiet!" Gu Changfeng pulled everyone back from joy with a sound of internal strength.
"This is just a trick of opportunism. If you encounter a real barbarian army, you still have to rely on strength! I hope you will remember." This victory is used to calm the army and also give the recruits a belief-the barbarian cavalry is terrible, but It's not unbeatable! But if you become arrogant because of a small victory, it loses its meaning.
"Yes! General!" After being so trained, the recruits immediately corrected their attitude. After this battle, the recruits recognized and obeyed Gu Changfeng's command.
"Back to camp!"
"Yes!" the recruits said in unison, bringing their spoils of war horses back to the camp. The current state of these poisoned horses is not very good, but the general said that after returning, clean them up with water and raise them well. These war horses are precious, and they will have horses to ride after they are raised!
The fifteen recruits slashed all the barbarians and eighteen cavalry under their horses, and there were no casualties and brought back a large number of horses, which made the entire Daqi military camp boil again.
When asked how it was done, Gu Changfeng and Shen Yanbei looked at each other and said, "Thanks to Lord Shen."
Huh, this matter is related to Lord Shen again? Everyone couldn't help but cast their eyes on Shen Yanbei.
"I found a hot-smelling plant in the south that is suitable for seasoning, so I brought the seeds of the plant to Yongjing City and asked someone to plant some. It happened to be harvested during the autumn harvest, so I brought some here, everyone The general can taste it." Shen Yanbei said with a faint smile, and sent someone to the kitchen to bring it over.
An irresistible scent spread in the main account, and everyone looked at the dishes made with the seasoning Shen Yanbei said, and their eyes widened in disbelief.
Such a fragrant thing overturned the barbarian cavalry? Did they give a stick when they were greedy?
"This is dried chili. This is chili powder." Shen Yanbei took out a packet of dried chili and a packet of chili powder to everyone. "The chilli powder is caught off guard by being inhaled by people and animals, which can cause great discomfort, coughing, sneezing and other symptoms..."
Everyone imagined the scene, you look at me and I look at you, both look complicated.
Shen Yanbei refreshed their knowledge of combat methods for generals who only used real knives and guns.
"Wonderful!" The military commander shook the feather fan in his hand, his eyes full of admiration when he looked at Shen Yanbei.
"It's just a trick, it won't work if you have more times."
Everyone knew this was true, but it was resourceful to think of a way to break the pressure that the barbarian cavalry put on Daqi soldiers.
A general dipped some chili powder and wanted to try, but the moment his tongue touched him, his tears were forced out.
"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
"Chili can dispel cold and remove dampness, diminish food and appetite, but some people can't eat spicy food." Shen Yanbei explained.
The others looked at the general with pitiful eyes.
Tai Qi just greeted everyone: "Master Shen, please don't waste it! Come, bring wine!"
Shen Yanbei took a few mouthfuls and left, and Gu Changfeng also retired on the grounds of taking a break.
"It's no wonder that this person can be promoted to four consecutive levels. The future of this person is limitless!" General Li ate a piece of Gongbao chicken, which was so delicious that he squinted and chewed it carefully.
Tai Qi just took a sip of wine: "If it weren't the case, the emperor would not send him."
"Master Shen is so young, I don't know if he has a wife?" a general asked curiously.
"Hey, Ma, did you have a heart for recruiting your son-in-law? Want to marry your girl?"
The general known as Lao Ma glanced at him: "What's wrong? Mr. Shen is like a wealthy student, who is just right for my girl!"
"Bah! Who can bear the stinky temper of your girl? Mr. Shen is a scholar! A scholar does not want to add fragrance to the red sleeves! My family is gentle, good at cooking, and can chant poetry and composing right. You can get out of the hall and enter the kitchen. , This matches Shenda talent!"
"Huangpo sells melons and brags for herself!" The general surnamed Ma snorted, "Maybe Master Shen likes my girl with such a true temperament!"
Tai Qi just couldn't laugh or cry: "It's alright, Lord Shen will make up his mind about the marital affairs of his own, and it's useless for you to argue."
"Yes! I'll ask him personally tomorrow!" The general surnamed Ma said, "Master Shen will love his wife at first sight. My girl has to find such a husband who will love others!"
Shen Yanbei, who was seen through, sealed a bowl of delicious chicken soup for Gu Chang: "Come on, it's hard work! Have a mouthful of soup!"
The old hen soup was boiled for an hour with some herbs that nourished qi and blood, and the meat was crisp and fragrant. Gu Changfeng took a sip, and suddenly felt relieved from his stomach.
"It feels so good to win the battle." Gu Changfeng put his head on his shoulder and said with a low smile.
Why is my wife so cute! Shen Yanbei hugged him and kissed him: "We will win."
"Yeah." Gu Changfeng laughed slowly.
