Chapter 113 The Strongest Assist Online

"Since it's firing three arrows in a row, can't we do it too?" Shen Mingjue said, "A few years ago in the capital, I saw someone use three arrows. It may not be as powerful as this... but it can be used, right?"

"Yes, it can be used. We have made what you said, but it will take some time for the soldiers to get used to this new weapon." Deputy General Xue said, "When we lost the first city, we switched to the three-arrow weapon, but they were really tricky. They used this...they called it a gun while riding on horseback. Compared with the original bow and arrow, it is just like using it while standing. I mean, it is too stable. This thing is easy to use. Anyone who can ride a horse can use it. There is no need to learn it. And it will take a long time for our soldiers to learn how to use the three-arrow weapon.

The second battle took place ten days later. That time we used the bow that could fire three arrows in a row and the improved and wider shield. However, the Hu people also changed their strategy this time. They no longer attacked the people in front of them, but attacked the people in the oblique direction. In comparison, their shields were curved, which made them more difficult to attack. That time it was a draw. "

"When was the second city lost?" Gu Changfeng asked.

This time it was General Shen who answered, "It must be because there are not enough horses left here. After two battles, nearly half of them have been lost. I remember that two months ago you wrote to the emperor asking him to send more war horses."

Lieutenant General Xue sighed, "Yes. It was one of those times that I was shot by an arrow, and they put poison on the tip of the arrow. But fortunately it is winter now, and the military doctor helped me remove the piece of meat, which slowed down the onset of the poison. Now I'm almost healed." He opened his clothes in public, and there was a red scar on his left shoulder, in the shape of a diamond, which was exactly the shape of a Hu people's weapon.

"We can't just sit there and wait for death. Every time they change their tactics, we will remember how to deal with them. After I was injured that time, I rested for a long time and came up with some countermeasures. Although this is a bit insidious, before the fourth battle, there was a shortage of food and grass, and the war horses had not been delivered. So I sent people to mix laxatives into their food and grass, and we barely won the fourth battle."

Lieutenant General Xue closed his collar, feeling annoyed. "I thought that when the fifth battle started, we would have a better chance of winning because we had more supplies, but that's not the case." He took out two more flags and stuck them on the sand table.

"Look here, this was not originally the territory of the Hu people. While I was recovering from my injuries, they took the opportunity to reach an agreement with the tribes here. In the fifth battle, they not only matched our numbers, but also brought out new weapons."

"If I remember correctly, the people here should be the Scythians? Haven't they always remained neutral? Why did they occupy the side of the Hu people this time?" Gu Changfeng said according to Xiao Wo's hint.

Deputy General Xue's eyes suddenly showed a bit of coldness and hatred. He said: "Perhaps the Scythians are never neutral. Because we found that they were the first to use this kind of gun. This time the Hu people went to war with us, most likely at their will, and they used the Hu people as guns."

"Let me tell you about this last battle." At this moment, a young man in his teens walked out from outside the tent, with bruises on his face, but his eyes were so bright.

"The fifth battle took place a month ago. Although we knew that our numbers were similar, the Scythians were still too cunning. They made armor on the forehead and abdomen of the horses. The abdomen was made of fish scales, which could not be penetrated by arrows. This time, a group of them attacked the horses, and the rest attacked the hands of our soldiers who could shoot three arrows at once. As a result, even though we had war horses, we were beaten back repeatedly and lost the third city. It was for this reason that Deputy General Xue hurriedly wrote a letter."

General Shen did not recognize this person, and curiously asked Deputy General Xue: "Who is this...?"

The young man smiled and took the initiative to talk, "General Shen, I'm Xu Zhong."

"Xu Zhong?" General Shen looked at him several times and finally recognized him. "Good fellow, it's only been a few years since we last met, but you are no longer the bean sprout in the military camp!"

Xu Zhong blushed a little and felt very embarrassed to be held in General Shen's arms.

"We are one family." He explained to Gu Changfeng and Shen Mingjue around him, "I picked up this child before I returned to the capital. He was left alone in the military camp. I didn't expect that after not seeing him for so many years, he has been trained so well by Old Xue. To be honest, I didn't recognize you when you first came in."

"This is the prince of Yong who came from the capital, and this is my second son, Shen Mingjue."

The young man was so shocked that he almost knelt down, "I greet the prince!"

Gu Changfeng quickly grabbed Xu Zhong's arm and said, "Don't be so formal. Since we are one family, we will inevitably go to the battlefield together in the future."

Xu Zhong didn't expect the prince to be so easy-going. He smiled and looked at Shen Mingjue: "Hello, young general."

Shen Mingjue nodded at him.

Deputy General Xue left it aside for a while, interrupting the recognition of relatives unhappily, "Okay, okay, that's about it. We've only moved here a few days ago, and we haven't packed up everything yet. I guess you're all hungry after chatting for so long?"

At this moment, Shen Mingjue's stomach growled.

"Hahahaha, in that case, everyone, follow me. We must have a good first meal in this military camp!"
