Chapter 308 The straw man borrows arrows

Calculating the enemy's position through direction requires a considerable degree of mathematical ability. Rowling's retainers are pretty good at this. During the excavation process, they would stop to listen to the sound from time to time, and then in the process

Constantly correct the direction of the excavation. Finally, I am convinced that the direction of my excavation is generally OK, and the deviation length should be within 1~2m. This degree of deviation is completely acceptable. When the distance is so close, the sound of the other party's excavation will be heard.

It was already obvious. I roughly adjusted the position of my cave to be right in front of the opponent's excavation. Then I started to make intensive preparations.

The fired pipe is sent to the tunnel. At the same time, there is a blower at the other end of the pipe. In front of the blower is a combustion chamber, which burns things such as mugwort and pepper that can produce pungent odors.

These things will then circulate quickly along the pipe through the blower. Once the channels are connected, the pipe will blow the gas to the other end. This has a more exaggerated stimulating effect on people than ordinary smoke bombs.

The people who were ambushing in the tunnels had already put on gas masks made of activated carbon and glass glasses that were relatively expensive in this era.

Just like a gas mask, it can still ensure that they can see clearly in such a harsh environment.

In this way, it can basically be said to be foolproof. As the cave was about to be dug, the people on the other side of the cave immediately dug quickly with shovels and other things. While the other side was surprised, they dug directly through the cave. At the same time,

The pipe was also passed through, and a large amount of thick smoke was sprayed out towards the astonished excavators.

These diggers had no weapons at all. Apart from digging tools such as hoes, they had nothing to use to fight back. They were choked by the thick smoke and couldn't open their eyes. At the same time, there were spears and muskets fired here.

, there was a scream from the opposite side, and a large number of people fell to the ground, and the people here were holding heavy shields. There was a gap in the shield, which was a gap that could spit out thick smoke. Holding such a shield, they kept moving forward.

, at the same time, someone stuck his head out from behind the shield and fired.

While shooting, someone stretched out a spear from the gap in the shield to attack the opponent.

Under such advancement, except for some people in the last row who fled, almost all the excavators were stabbed to death in the cave.

The attackers had no intention of giving up this opportunity. Now it was night and they could rush from the cave to the enemy camp and conduct some harassment.

They rushed out of the cave with shields, and then fired muskets at the surroundings. Not many people were hit, but it brought panic to the camp. At the same time, someone threw something like a grenade. In this era, since

With bombs, they can naturally be made into grenades. A booming explosion sounded in the camp, and some people who were close were killed on the spot. In the chaos, it was impossible to organize the military formation. Although there were many people, they were organized in an orderly manner.

The orderly raiders were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties.

The raid here didn't intend to gain much. The Warring States Period was just to suppress the morale outside the city. After throwing out the miserable corpses in the cave, they immediately retreated from the cave. And built a tight structure in the cave.

For defense, the enemy can indeed attack the city through this cave, but the cave is narrow and already occupied by them. If anyone dares to attack through this cave, they will definitely suffer huge casualties and will not achieve any results.

Because the cave is so narrow, only two people can walk side by side. In this case, as long as the defending party defends on the relatively wider side of the cave, no matter how many people come, they will all die.

Naturally, this tunnel had no choice but to be abandoned. If this tunnel was left alive, people on our side might rush out of the tunnel and raid at night, in order to drive out the defenders occupying this tunnel from the tunnel.

The army commanders besieging the city had to choose to pour water into the tunnel. In this way, they would drive away the opponents and then bury the tunnel. In this way, although they could no longer use this tunnel, they did not have to worry about their enemies using this tunnel to attack.

By myself.

After Luo Lin saw the low morale of the enemies attacking outside the city, he was relieved. His plan was finally a success. The first step was to make his opponent lower himself, so that he could defeat him.

Achieve sufficient results in the raid.

If the opponent is too high, even if he kills him, it will not make any sense.

After all, there are few people on our side, and the number of cavalry is only 20% of the opponent's. In a real frontal field battle, the effect is very poor. The best way is to make a surprise attack at night to capture the thief first.

However, it is best to paralyze the opponent first, and then be alert before launching a sneak attack. Otherwise, the sneak attack will definitely not be effective, and may just destroy the most elite people in the city in the sneak attack.

Just when Luo Lin was worrying about how to make the enemy relax their vigilance, one of his subordinates or one of his advisers gave him a suggestion.

"My lord, you can organize an elite team to harass the enemy first and show our ability to attack at night."

Hearing this, Luo Lin immediately shook her head: "What we have to do is to capture the thief first. We must capture it all at once. How can we let the other party know that we have the ability to attack at night? Isn't this just a warning?"

"The main attack is not what we said. Even if we don't go to the banquet, the other side will be on guard. After all, night attacks don't seem to be such a novel method now. After we attack them once, the other side will subconsciously think that there will be some attack at night.

What makes us restless is that we launch night raids, but we don't actually need to send people out every night. The darkness at night can't illuminate much of the surrounding things. They just need to hear our drums and hear our shouts.

If you hear the sound, you will think that someone is coming down from the city wall to attack us.

They will definitely fight back at that time. And we don't necessarily need real people, we just need to put down scarecrows from the bedside one by one, and then take these scarecrows back before dawn.

It just so happens that you can borrow these scarecrows to borrow their arrows. Although most of our army uses muskets, there are still people who can shoot arrows. We do not choose these people to form our army. It is not because

Archers are not as good as muskets. But archers are too difficult to train, and bows and arrows are extremely expensive. Compared with lead bullets, bows and arrows are much more expensive. But if we have enough bows and arrows, they will still be of great help to us in defending the city.

Functional."

Luo Lin nodded when he heard this. This strategy is not bad: "In this way, we can use the scarecrow to borrow arrows, but your plan should not stop there." Luo Lin had already roughly guessed it, and her adviser thought

What should I do? I suddenly felt that this idea was quite good.

"Yes, of course my plan doesn't stop there. We can use these straw men to borrow arrows, but sooner or later they will discover that our sneak attacks at night are just some scarecrows. After they discover them, we will continue to use them with great fanfare.

The scarecrow launches a night attack.

By then, even if we play drums in the city, no matter how noisy the city is, they probably won’t come to see it. Our scarecrows had borrowed so many bows and arrows before. And because we were playing drums at night, they thought there would be someone there.

A sneak attack will make you unable to sleep peacefully. We will definitely think we are bluffing, and then we will actually send people out to attack. How can they be adequately prepared?"

Luo Lin immediately clapped her hands and laughed when she heard this: "What a brilliant idea! Just do what you said. I will ask the old and young in the city to make scarecrows. Tomorrow night, I will send a group of people to make a sneak attack outside the city. I will definitely call them at night in the future."

No peaceful sleep."

Just as they planned, someone opened the city gate that night and conducted a night attack. It was dark at night, and it was difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy during the battle. Therefore, the results of this night attack were not particularly ideal.

Although relying on a relatively more reasonable military system, I have gained a small advantage and have a slight advantage in exchange pens. But overall, it is still not enough. The opponent's number exceeds my own by three times. And my exchange ratio is less than 1.5.

, even if you kill all your own people, you still can't win.

Therefore, both parties' publicity was that they had a huge advantage in the previous night banquet.

The propaganda inside the city was that they had won a great victory and killed many of the opponent's generals. The propaganda outside the city was that they had resisted the opponent's sneak attack and wiped out all the attacking troops.

Both sides were bragging, but it didn't matter to Luo Lin in the city. He had never considered what effect the previous night attack could achieve. At most, he wanted to let his soldiers get familiar with it and fight at night.

.

After that, he beat the drum every night and made a sneak attack, so that every day there would be a large number of feather arrows stuck under the city wall, and the scarecrows they put down were also full of arrows, and they were temporarily in the city.

Find those who have participated in military training and can use bows. Let them use them to further increase the strength of the city defense.

At the same time, the city is not completely surrounded. On the other hand, the city can still go out. Therefore, materials can be collected to make some temporary crossbows. Although these materials that have not been processed for a long time are more effective than those used in the army.

But anyway, these bows and arrows are free of charge, so you won’t feel bad if you use them up.

The party attacking the city these days is actually quite anxious. They can indeed take a certain advantage during the attack and kill some soldiers on the city wall. But the efficiency is too slow and they cannot defeat them in a short time.

This city. And if they get support from people on the other side, or if they reach an agreement with them, it will be completely impossible for them to capture it.

And if you are trapped in the long vacation for too long, not only the food and grass may be exhausted, but also if discovered by other forces, they may be completely annihilated here.

But if he can't even occupy a transportation hub, then with his small number of people, he can't compete with those big families on the plains.

Just when the commander was in a bad mood, an officer hurried into the camp. He saw that the officer was holding a scarecrow with many bows and arrows stuck in it.

"Sir, those people in the city didn't really come out to attack us at all. They just put down scarecrows from the beds to make us think they were preparing to attack. In fact, they were using these scarecrows to steal our bows and arrows."

The commander almost vomited blood when he saw this scene. He couldn't sleep well all night these days. He had to beware of sneak attacks by people in the city. But he didn't expect that the other party just used such a scarecrow to deceive him. If you think about it this way, the city

The people here have been recuperating their strength these days, but their own army has to fight tiredly under such sneak attacks. It's no wonder that they can't attack it at all these days.

"Order not to carry out sneak attacks on the city. These cunning rats can only use conspiracy and tricks. Except for the soldiers on patrol at night, the rest of the soldiers go to bed on time, adjust their state, and continue to attack the city tomorrow!"

His soldiers were harassed all night long. They are extremely tired now. If they don't take a good rest, if the opponent goes out to fight in the city and his condition is not good, he may suffer heavy losses. Even if he can capture this city, if he has the strength on hand,

If it's not enough, how can we hold on to it?

After the soldiers got the news that they could sleep normally tonight, they were all relieved. They had not slept well these days, and they really could fall asleep lying on the ground.

After falling asleep one by one, they were almost unaware of everything in the outside world. They had no idea what they might face next. They heard the drums on the city head again, but this time no one responded. They just thought it was from the city.

People were bluffing, and no one was seen attacking for a while. Finally, it was confirmed that the people in the city were at their wits end.

Even the patrolling soldiers relaxed their vigilance, but they never thought that the real attack would begin after they relaxed their vigilance.

After beating the gongs and drums for a while, they found that no one was paying attention. The people on the city climbed down from the top of the city silently. This time, there was no drumming at all and no sound was made.

Then, as they had practiced countless times in the city, they gathered under the city and formed a neat formation. After confirming the direction of the enemy, they launched their own charge in that direction.

At this time, most of the soldiers in the enemy camp were asleep. They didn't even hear the uniform footsteps. The patrol soldiers who were still awake were all dozing off, and after hearing the heavy classical music

After that, they thought the other party was going to disturb their sleep again, but when they saw a dense crowd of people rushing towards them, they screamed the loudest they could: "Enemy attack!"

But where can we get it at this time?
