As soon as Meng Tian finished speaking, the twelve zodiac signs that Zhao Che placed high hopes on looked at each other and stood up decisively.

"Are you going together or one by one?"

Meng Tian nodded. Zodiac had been serving as a guard by Zhao Che's side before, and he had learned a lot from Zhao Che.

It was not until later, after Zhao Che had Jin Yiwei by his side, that the twelve zodiac signs returned to the army.

But now the Xuanniaowei alone can no longer give full play to the strength of the twelve zodiac signs, so Meng Tian decided to take this opportunity to arrange a suitable position for the twelve zodiac signs in the army, and brought him with him.

"Commander, why should I wait for all the Xiongnu to fight against mere Huns? Let me come back by beheading a few Huns generals first."

As the most powerful existence among the twelve zodiac signs, Yinhu naturally took on the responsibility of taking the lead in the battle.

In addition to meritorious service, Yinhu also has a selfish desire, which is to avenge Zhao Che.

Although Zhao Che didn't suffer any injuries when he fought against the Xiongnu vanguard army, he made a great reputation instead.

But they were the most elite guards around Zhao Che, and their skills were all taught by Zhao Che, so they can be regarded as Zhao Che's students.

The teacher was besieged by the Huns, and the zodiac was naturally angry, so he planned to take this opportunity to vent his anger.

"Then I will leave this first battle to you!"

Seeing that the others had no objections, Meng Tian nodded and agreed.

"Don't worry, the commander. If you can't defeat the enemy army, Yinhu will come to see you!"

Yinhu stood up, issued a military order full of confidence, and then walked out of the barracks and summoned all his subordinates.

Each of the twelve zodiac signs leads an army of 5000 people, and this army is also named after the respective names of the twelve zodiac signs.

For example, the Yinhu Army and the Chenlong Army each have different combat styles and methods, and they are all trained according to their own abilities of the twelve zodiac signs.

Zhao Che had previously promised the twelve zodiac signs that special weapons, equipment and responsibilities would be specially created for them based on their respective strengths.

For example, Chou Niu, as the most powerful and physically strong person among the twelve zodiac signs, what Zhao Che built for him was the Iron Buddha that focused on defense and charging.

Iron Buddha's defensive power is amazing, it can be called invulnerable, but the disadvantages are also obvious, that is, it is troublesome to wear, lack of flexibility, and the armor itself is also very heavy. Normal actions are very difficult.

As for Yinhu, the existence with the most comprehensive and balanced abilities among the twelve zodiac signs, the armor Zhao Che made for him was cold-forged armor!
Cold forging armor originated in the Song Dynasty, and it can be called the pinnacle of ancient armor, but it was not made by the people of the Central Plains, but invented by the Qiang people in the northwest.

During the Song Dynasty, the Qiang people in Xining, Qinghai Province were very good at forging iron armor. The iron armor they forged showed a blue color, indicating that the light could illuminate people's shadows.

Each piece of armor is connected in series with straps, so that the forged armor is both soft, light and extremely tough.

Han Qi, Duke of the State of Wei in the Song Dynasty, was in charge of governing the northwest area at that time. He had personally tested the power of the cold-forged armor.

Someone brought a strong crossbow and shot the cold-forged armor with crossbow arrows at a distance of fifty steps, and the cold-forged armor resisted dozens of arrows in a row, and finally only one arrow shot in.

When people went to check, they found that the arrow had just stuck in the eyelet for threading the rope, and the part where the arrow shaft scratched the armor was rolled over. This shows how defensive the cold forged armor is. tough.

The reason why cold forging armor is so powerful is naturally because of its advanced forging technology. To forge such a set of armor, the technical requirements are average, but it requires a lot of manpower and material resources. The materials selected are very precious. Ordinary pig iron can be used.

Because the Xixia regime at that time was very deficient in hot forging metal technology, so it found another way to make this cold forging armor.

After the cold forging armor was made, it was immediately promoted by the Xixia regime, which greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the Xixia army, and later became a strong enemy of the Song Dynasty.

As the army of the twelve zodiac signs, the Yinhu army has the most balanced strength in all aspects. There are no obvious shortcomings, but there are no particularly outstanding advantages.

Therefore, choosing to use cold-forged armor as their armor can maximize the fighting ability of the Yinhu Army and make up for their deficiencies in defense.

Coupled with the Tang Hengdao that is standard equipped with the Yinhu army, they are extremely powerful in offense and defense, even if they are just built in the beginning, they have shown extremely good combat effectiveness.

In time, the strength of the Yinhu army could even surpass the Xuanniaowei easily and become the true trump card army of Daqin.

On the front line of the battlefield, Yinhu brought his [-] Yinhu army under him, and confidently came to the front of the enemy camp to call for battle.

The Xiongnu had already been tempted, so of course they couldn't bear it, and immediately sent out an ace cavalry of the Huns, and the opponent led a full army of [-], which was intended to directly crush them with numbers.

It's a pity that when Yinhu saw this, he was right.

As for the local turtles of the Xiongnu who took their outdated weapons and equipment as their treasures, facing such an elite and advanced Yinhu army, there was no comparison between the two sides.

"Qin kid, is there no one in your Great Qin? You actually sent a little guy like you to die?"

According to the usual practice, before the two armies engage in battle, the generals of both sides will shout and scold.

Of course, this is not for the simple enjoyment of the mouth, but a way to destroy morale.

If they can gain the upper hand in the initial scolding, then the mentality of the enemy generals is likely to change, and even further affect the morale of the entire army.

On the contrary, if one's own side has the upper hand, it will naturally greatly improve the morale of one's own side.

Since the twelve zodiac signs themselves were elites selected from the Great Qin Army, and then entered the Xuanniao Guard, and were later sent to Zhao Che's side, they are actually not very old.

The generals sent by the Xiongnu were actually the old opponents of the Qin army. Before Meng Tian attacked the Xiongnu in the north, they had been leading people to harass Daqin from time to time.

Now seeing an unfamiliar face sent by the Qin army, the general of the Xiongnu would naturally not take Yinhu seriously.

"Old man, you'd better worry about yourself more, don't be shy when you are fighting for a while."

Yinhu was also sharp-tongued, and responded unceremoniously.

The general of the Xiongnu obviously didn't expect that Yinhu looked young, but he was quite capable of cursing.

"Hmph, I see that there is really no one in your Great Qin. The vanguard army has only been sent out so little. Are you afraid that we will kill you all in one charge?"

"Really? I still think 5000 people is a bit too much. If you want me to say that there are two to 3000 people, it's fine!"
