These knights and war horses are the precious assets of his Murong tribe.
One thousand strong and capable young men of the clan are the hope for the future rise of the Murong tribe.
Murong Hu also planned to take them to follow King Loufan in the war and establish their own territory for the survival and reproduction of their people.
However, after just such a confrontation, the Dayin soldiers, who were described by the people of Beidi as being like rookie broilers, shot down half of the warriors of their tribe with bows and crossbows.
Murong Hu and his people stopped two hundred steps away from the stone wall, staring at the stone wall and the lookout tower on top of it.
In the lookout tower, it must be the officers of Dayin who are commanding the archers to launch a ruthless attack on the Murong tribe.
"Father, what should we do? Continue to attack or retreat?"
A young general beside Murong Hu asked hurriedly.
He is Murong Chunhua, the son of Murong Hu. Although he is only eighteen years old, he is very brave.
“Retreat, retreat!”
"If we continue to stay here, our Murong tribe will be wiped out." Murong Hu said helplessly.
Half of the people died and they couldn't even touch the enemy's city wall.
The bold words he shouted in front of King Loufan instantly became a shameful joke.
Face is important, but the life and death of the clan members is more important.
Murong Chunhua said, "Father, I see that although these arrows are dense and powerful, they are firing blindly from behind the stone wall."
"As long as we dismount and charge, we still have a chance!"
Murong Chunhua looked unyielding and said, "Father, please allow me to lead a hundred men and charge first. You can follow with the rest."
"As long as we get to the stone wall, we're halfway there."
"Also, please ask the king to send reinforcements as soon as possible so that we can attack them in one go."
"If Your Majesty only cares about protecting his reputation and is unwilling to commit elite troops to a bloody battle, then wouldn't the deaths of half of our fallen warriors have been in vain?"
"Chunhua..." Murong Hu looked at his beloved son with complicated eyes, but finally nodded vigorously.
Murong Chunhua immediately received the order, called over a hundred soldiers, and then divided them into ten groups.
"Brothers, we have no way out. We must not retreat. We must move forward courageously."
Murong Chunhua gathered these one hundred people together, re-selected the squad leaders on the spot, and then strode towards the trench with a sword in one hand and a shield in the other.
One hundred men hurried to follow.
They walked through the trenches and the earthen ridges between the trenches as if they were taking risks.
On the stone wall lookout tower, the one hundred Tartars gave up riding horses and chose to dismount to attack, which made Zhao Muyun exclaim that the other side had a master.
Zhong Dahu's troops, who were standing behind the stone wall and firing blindly, were unable to respond accurately.
Moreover, these one hundred soldiers were divided into ten groups, making their targets more scattered and even more difficult to shoot.
"Send a message to Dewey. Prepare yourself and hold the wall. Don't let any of these people go."
Zhao Muyun gave the order expressionlessly.
At present, Zhao Muyun's Yinzhou Army has undergone systematic and super-intensive training, and has the physical fitness and courage to dare to fight the Tartars one-on-one.
And it has been proven in the Battle of Yinzhou that they have this ability.
Du Wei's Yanzhou Army and Zhong Dahu's Shuozhou Army were recently integrated into Zhao Muyun's command.
The time they received Zhao Muyun's new military training was very short, only about ten days.
And within more than ten days, they also participated in the construction of stone walls and the digging of trenches.
Only some military posture training is carried out in scattered time.
Therefore, the combat effectiveness of the Yanzhou Army and the Shuozhou Army is much lower than that of the Yinzhou Army.
The Shuozhou Army has been fighting against the Tatars at the border for many years. Although it is not as strong as the Yinzhou Army, it is much stronger than the Yanzhou Army.
Zhao Muyun arranged for Du Wei to fight hand-to-hand with the Tartars on the city wall in order to arouse their fighting spirit in close combat with the Tartars.
Since there is no time for training, let them improve quickly in the war.
Zhao Muyun was not worried about not being able to defend himself.
Whenever the Tartars crossed the stone wall and Duwe was unable to defend it, the 1,500 Shuozhou soldiers would immediately put down their bows and crossbows, climb onto the wall and join the battle.
At this time, Murong Chunhua brought a hundred good fighters from the clan, crossed the trenches one after another, and quickly came to the bottom of the stone wall.
The two-meter-high stone wall doesn't look very high from a distance, and it seems that you can jump over it with just a light leap.
But when I got closer, I saw that it was not the case.
If a person stands below and raises his head, there is still some height.
In the middle of the stone wall, there is a wooden door made of sharpened wood as big as a bowl and joined with mortise and tenon joints, embedded in the stone wall.
The wooden door is for the soldiers inside to enter.
This place is naturally heavily guarded, and Dewey personally brought two hundred people to guard here.
"superior!"
Murong Chunhua asked others to take out bows and crossbows and shoot arrows at the top of the wall, suppressing the enemies on the wall with firepower.
He himself took four or five strong soldiers with him, bit his knife in his mouth, and then grabbed the gaps in the stone wall and climbed up step by step.
After all, it was built temporarily with irregular stones, and there are many gaps in the stone walls, which is very conducive to climbing.
As long as there is no interference on the top of the wall, you can climb up.
"This Tartar is quite cruel! I'm afraid Dewey will be in trouble!"
Zhao Muyun frowned and looked towards where Murong Chunhua was. "Old Tang, take the scout battalion and go help Captain Du!"
"That Tartar leader must be killed first."
Tang Yanhai nodded and said coldly, "I understand."
When Wang Tiezhu returned to Shuozhou and started to form the Bad People, Zhao Muyun urgently recalled Tang Yanhai, who had gone deep into Yunzhou to gather military intelligence, and handed the entire scout camp to Tang Yanhai.
After this battle, the scout battalion of the specialized service army was expanded and the division of labor became more detailed.
