Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 4573: Daofu talks about military aircraft

Xu Daofu shook his head: "In the last battle of Nantang, if we hadn't had Xu Chite as an internal agent, we would have had all the Jin army's archers chased out in advance and sent them away, and then relied on ghost soldiers to sneak into the Jin army. We could not break through the Jin army's defense inside the camp fence, especially the dismounted and heavily armored long-soldiers they killed later, who seemed to be the Xianbei people in tiger-striped shirts, in the mud between the ponds a hundred steps wide. , can block the repeated attacks of tens of thousands of our troops, have you forgotten this so quickly?"

Xu Daoan's face turned slightly red, but he still said solemnly: "In that battle, because we attacked from the tunnel, we couldn't bring our various wooden armored mechas and heavy ballistae with us. If we push these things to the front, Shooting directly at the enemy's armored phalanx, huh, how can their flesh and blood resist?"

Xu Daofu smiled slightly: "So, our top priority in this battle is to push our war machinery to the front. The Jin army must also have many trebuchets and ballistae, and they will not let us put such There are more attacking tools in advance, Daoan, can you think of any good tactics?"

Xu Daoan pondered for a moment and said: "Then we should first use two to three thousand men and horses to directly attack the front of the Jin army. Their fighting style has always been to use heavy armor and long spears to withstand the front, leading our army to attack hard. When we attack, they use their bows The crossbows fired in unison, causing a lot of damage, but as long as we attack quickly enough and are not afraid of casualties, we can get close to the line of their shield wall and form a stalemate."

"On the plain, the frontage that is several miles wide cannot be completely made of copper and iron. The gaps between our teams give you no chance to retreat. It's not because your troops have no advantage. You can't fight at the same time. Directly to our flanks and in front of our backs, when you retreated, you raised smoke and dust, leaving the Jin army in the smoke and dust for seven weeks. If you can see clearly the situation within seventy steps, you can only see that your soldiers are Stop attacking our defense line. Taking advantage of these opportunities, you delay the attack and push it back to a hundred paces, that is, seventy paces away from the Jin army's line. When the sergeants in the rear retreat, you will face them. The Jin army's front we are holding is firing as much as we can."

Thinking of that, an evil and cruel smile appeared on my face, and I stuck out my tongue and licked my lips: "Hey, with that kind of fighting style, you have defeated Lu Yanyue head-on few times, and even more so with words As for my special Jin army, no matter how weak the heavily armored warriors are, they are just flesh and blood, and the more heavily armored they are, the more flexible they are. Even in the face of your ballistae and flying attacks, it is difficult to resist them. , as long as we can make some gaps in our rear edge and confuse the enemy's formation, your warriors will fly back and rush out of those gaps. Use your long swords, steel swords, hand halberds and other melee weapons to chop to your heart's content. Kill those Luyan heavy armored infantry."

Having said that, Lu Yanyue couldn't help but burst out laughing proudly, and his strange laughter kept echoing in Beifujun's ears.

Lu Yanyue sighed heavily: "Daoan, he thinks Xu Daoan dares to put up a formation and fight you, so he will use the fighting methods he mentioned, stupidly put up a small formation in front, and then wait for you to attack , and then prepare to face those attacks that can be seen in the smoke?"

Xu Daofu's laughter stopped suddenly, and I narrowed my eyes: "Could it be that Xu Daoan would use an unconventional fighting method?"

Lu Yanyue's eyes flashed with heat: "You, Lu Yanyue, and Xu Dao'an have fought too many times, and you are too unfamiliar with each other. Liu Daogui's victory lies in his well-equipped and sharp armored soldiers, especially the heavy-armed troops. The protection is very weak, the training of the sergeants is not good, and the battle formation cannot be fought to the death, so a very small number of troops, even cavalry and chariots, can hardly break through our frontal defense. There are many times. What the battle has proven is also the reason why we are so powerful.”

Xu Daofu said with conviction: "But in that case, our mobility is very poor. The flanks and front are weak links, and the front will definitely be destroyed by wooden armored machinemen or ballistas approaching and shooting. , or using immortals and ghost soldiers to get close, it will also cause us a small amount of casualties, which has been proven in several battles."

Lu Yanyue gritted his teeth: "But when I set up the formation like that, I also blocked my retreat and counterattack route. If you fight that battle and go around to other places, all my arrangements will be useless." Yet?"

Beifu Jun said enthusiastically: "That was a show for our brothers to watch. It made us think that the way forward was blocked and we could not advance without retreating. But if it is really profitable, as generals, you still have to consider advancing. In fact, Xu Daoan It's the same thing. If you want to block the Qing Plain, you have to take care of the Ma Tou camp in front of me. Therefore, you must first send a surprise force to go around the Qing Plain and find a way to get in front of me."

Xu Daofu nodded and said: "Yes, whether you win that battle or not, you won't be able to return to Wulindu. You followed his order and burned more than forty damaged Qianlong warships, but the other seven hundred Article, it is better to leave the port secretly and wait for orders. If the war is really beneficial, we can still withdraw. "

The Beifu Army shook his head: "In that battle, you only fought on Qingpingyuan. That was Xu Daoan's shrewdness and cunning, because Qingpingyuan controlled the main road to Ma Tou Camp. You took Qingpingyuan, There is no way to directly attack the Ma Tou camp, and the nearest way to attack Jiangling is lost. It must be to go around to the north and cross the Han River in Dangyang area. This will be affected by the Jin army from Dangyang and Yongzhou directions and the 70,000 main force. Once we cut off your way forward, or even send an army to capture Wulindu, you will retreat and lose ground, and you will be killed if you win. That is the consequence you cannot bear."

Xu Daofu's forehead started to sweat: "How will Xu Daoan fight, and how will you break it?"

The Beifu Army narrowed his eyes slightly: "You think, our first choice is to let you approach the front line easily. You can't let smoke and dust rise. We can also dig trenches or make traps behind the front line. , or put up obstacles such as horses and carts to prevent you from directly attacking our heavy infantry line, and then use archers to shoot arrows in front. In the case of contact, try to cause damage to you, even if it is you Even if we send out hundreds of ghost soldiers, we can still get close to our soldiers, and when the time comes, we will burn them with fire, and we won’t be able to break your ghost soldiers’ close-quarter attack.”

The Beifu Army nodded: "So, does he think Xu Daoan will still use that fighting method, stay in place, leave the heavy troops aside and let you attack with those fighting methods?"

"As for those obstacles, they cannot prevent you from approaching and launching various attack tools. They may allow you to easily penetrate our defense line and cause chaos. If you were Xu Daoan, you would use that choice."
