Chapter 187 Golden Fire Cavalry(1/2)
"Shoot the arrow!"
Sun Shangxiang carried an arrow bag and led the Wu archers to shoot the Qin Navy with fire arrows.
Burned ships can be seen everywhere on the Weishui River, and thick smoke is rolling.
The Qin army in Xianyang was fierce on land, and when they arrived in the water, they seemed a little clumsy in front of the generals of the Eastern Wu.
Zhou Tai, with his dead soldiers, jumped to the deck of the Qin army ships, attacked and killed the Qin army commander, and washed away the Qin army ships.
The Qin army fleet in Xianyang was attacked by the Eastern Wu generals and almost wiped out the entire army.
"Build a floating bridge and attack Xianyang!"
Zhang Hua used the Five Tiger Generals to attack Xianyang City west of the Wei River.
Sun Shangxiang and Chen Qingzhi's navy were connected by ships and set up a hundreds of meters long floating bridge on the surface of the Wei River.
The five tiger generals of the Great Xia, Xue Rengui, Xu Chu, Huang Zhong, Yang Ye and Ma Wu, led a team of tiger soldiers to cross the river and established camps west of the Wei River.
Zhang Hua has the advantage of the navy and is invincible.
On the east bank of the Wei River, Zhang Hua supervised 100,000 Xia troops to cross the river as a general in heaven.
Zhang Hua carried his hands behind his back, watching Xia Jun crossing the river.
Chen Gong said from the side: "I guess that Meng Tian will choose to attack halfway."
Li Ji and Yan Xiang also agreed, believing that Meng Tian would not let the Xia army cross the Wei River easily.
It was based on this assumption that Zhang Hua arranged for the five tigers to cross the river.
The Five Tiger Generals of the Great Xia are the five most powerful generals with the highest force in Zhang Hua. Each one should be one hundred, but not the sharp ones.
The five tiger generals led the tiger soldiers across the Wei River and spread in a fan shape on the other side.
These tiger soldiers held hammers, knocked down wooden stakes, and consolidated the camp.
The second batch of soldiers crossing the river were third-level heavy armor infantry equipped with Mingguang armor.
Feng Yi led this heavily armored infantry across the river, with long spears like a forest.
The third batch of soldiers were Liang Hongyu's divine arm archers.
"If the first three groups of troops cross the river, they can definitely set up camp west of the Wei River."
Zhang Hua is waiting for the result.
Opposite the Wei River, Meng Tian’s golden fire cavalry had already lined up, equipped with Qin swords and Qin crossbows with black armored Qin troops ready to go.
The Qin army's whistle cavalry came back: "General, the Xia army has thousands of people crossing the river."
"It's time to attack and defeat this Xia army for me!"
Meng Tian, just as Zhang Hua, Chen Gong and others calculated, adopted the tactic of half-crossing attack!
After thousands of Xia army vanguards crossed the river, Meng Tian's Qin army dispatched, and tens of thousands of Qin troops pressed towards the Xia army on the river beach. The lineup was neat, and the Qin army's black flag was tight, like black clouds slamming the city.
A suffocating sense of oppression came, and thousands of Xia soldiers surrounded by the river beach felt that they were having difficulty breathing and their momentum was about to be overwhelmed by the Qin army.
"I am worthy of being the Qin general Meng Tian. This sense of oppression is suffocating."
Yang Ye, carrying a golden-backed knife, led the way, stood in front of the Xia army, facing tens of thousands of Qin troops.
The Qin army lasted for several miles, with strong formations, and golden swords and iron horses, and impeccable.
Meng Tian had absolute control over the Qin army formation, and the military orders were as high as a mountain, and none of the Qin army left the formation.
"Meng Tian..."
The five tiger generals Xue Rengui, Huang Zhong, Xu Chu, Yang Ye, and Ma Wu all know Meng Tian. At the same time, Meng Tian is the largest general in Qin Xiaogong's power and the biggest enemy in this attack on Xianyang.
"Don't panic everyone!"
Liang Hongyu urgently led a team of divine armed archers across the river to inspire morale, boosting the morale of thousands of Xia soldiers, and the sense of oppression brought by the Qin army disappeared.
"Raising the shield!"
Feng Yi ordered heavy armored infantry equipped with Mingguang armor to erect shields to be prepared to withstand the attack of the Qin army.
Liang Hongyu led the archers of the divine arm and the crossbow was lifted.
Meng Tian wore an iron horn and black armor. He pulled out the sword around his waist with his right hand, pointed it in front of him, and ordered expressionlessly: "As long as the plan, attack!"
According to the plan formulated by Meng Tian, the 30,000 Qin army infantry equipped with powerful crossbows were divided into three 10,000 square formations and attacked the Xia army on the river beach from three directions.
The entire battlefield was full of murderous death, with only the sound of footsteps of ten thousand people moving in the square formation and the sound of iron armored pieces hitting.
The Qin army approached step by step, and was tense.
The black clouds are squeezing the city and are about to destroy it!
"wind!"
"wind!"
"Raging wind!"
Suddenly, 30,000 Qin troops shouted in unison, the mountains and thundered the sea, and the Wei River shook it!
As the Qin army formed a formation, the wind direction on the battlefield seemed to have changed as a result, with flags flying eastward and rushing.
Thirty thousand Qin troops are in the upper hand!
The Qin commanders drew their swords one by one, and their cold swords pointed forward, and a roar burst out from their throats: "Shoot the arrow!"
The Qin army pulled the crossbow machine, and thousands of arrows were fired at once, and the rain of arrows was like black clouds!
Dangdangdangdangdangdang!
The crossbow arrows were on the Xia army's shield, and soon the giant shield of the heavy armored infantry in the front row had turned into a hedgehog.
Some of the heavily armored infantry's bright light armor were filled with crossbow arrows, but they still did not fall.
This is also thanks to the amazing defense of Mingguang Armor and the partial damage to the crossbow. Otherwise, the Qin army would suffer heavy losses after the first round of arrow rains.
"fight back!"
Liang Hongyu crossed the river with two thousand divine armed archers. The divine armed archers fought back with strong range. The powerful range of the divine armed archers allowed the crossbow arrows to cross the front row of the Qin army's heavy armored infantry and land among the crossbow soldiers in the middle and rear of the Qin army. The Qin army was killed by arrows.
Huang Zhong, Xue Rengui, and Yang Ye, three powerful generals who are good at riding and shooting, arched their bows and shot hard, and streams of light shot out from the Xia army's phalanx, bursting out blood mists in the Qin army's phalanx!
Huang Zhong and Xue Rengui's bow and arrow were extremely powerful, and one arrow penetrated several Qin troops, and a small group of Qin troops fell down at the same time.
Chiu!
Huang Zhong let go of the bowstring, leaving traces of burning fire arrows in the air. The Qin army's shield was as thin as a cicada's wings and was easily penetrated.
“Provide cover.”
Sun Shangxiang and Chen Qingzhi took a small boat and led the Wu archers to the waterside and shot the Qin army beside the waterside, forcing the Qin army to attack the Xia army along the Wei River.
Sun Shangxiang attached his true energy to the bow and arrow, spanning two hundred steps away, and shot a Qin army commander. The bow and arrow suddenly exploded, blowing the Qin army commander into blood and blood!
The Qin army formation led by the Qin army commander, fell into a brief chaos because of the loss of the chief general.
However, Meng Tian frequently ordered that the Qin army formation quickly stabilized again and continued to advance.
Meng Tian's talent made the 30,000 Qin troops stand firm and remained as motionless as a mountain, and continued to march towards the Xia army gathered on the river beach.
"Meng Tian is really a first-class commander. No matter what the situation is, the military formation will not be defeated."
Zhang Hua brought a few strategists to the warship to supervise the battle. Seeing the 30,000 Qin troops attacking in an orderly manner, he sighed at Meng Tian's terrifying military formation maintenance ability.
Meng Tian has a good record in this world. He defeated Cheng Yaojin and Shan Xiongxin, helped Qin Xiaogong expand, and attacked Chen Qingzhi's camp in heavy rain, regardless of the outcome.
At this time, Meng Tian held the 100,000 Qin troops, like the Great Wall of Steel, indestructible.
"kill!"
"kill!"
The Qin army shot with strong crossbows, and the Qin infantry held long swords and launched a charge to meet the Xia army on the river beach!
The Qin army implemented the military merit system, so all the soldiers of the Qin State were warlike.
Because only by killing enemies can you improve your title and change your class!
However, the Xia army soldiers also apply to the military merit system, so the Qin army has no absolute institutional advantages!
"kill!"
Xu Chu roared angrily, holding a tiger-headed sword, cut off the long spear of the Qin soldiers with one sword, and transformed into a sword energy to slash the Qin soldiers' presence and kill the Qin soldiers!
"kill!!"
Five hundred tiger soldiers roared, their berserk talents took effect, and true qi poured into the meridians throughout the body, entering a violent state.
The tiger soldier's body skyrocketed, and his height changed to two meters. He covered his body with an invisible layer of true energy armor. In addition, his own equipment was bright light armor, like an iron wall, fighting hard with the Qin soldiers coming!
A tiger soldier can fight against several Qin soldiers alone, and he can also be defeated!
The tiger soldier's giant sword slashed horizontally, and Qin armor was cut into two pieces!
Tiger soldiers can be regarded as tiger and leopard cavalry dismounted. They are all swordsmen with extraordinary force and are equipped with a giant sword weighing ten kilograms. They can easily cut off ordinary quality armor with one sword.
Behind the five hundred tiger soldiers, there are also Mingguang armored heavy infantry led by Feng Yi to strengthen the defense line.
The Qin army fought with Feng Yi's Mingguang armor heavy infantry, and his morale dropped rapidly and his morale began to shake.
Feng Yi's aura of attacking the heart inadvertently affected the morale of the Qin army.
Yang Ye carried a golden-backed knife, flipped his wrist, and waved his big knife, and a few meters long golden sword energy was slashed out. More than a dozen Qin soldiers in front were killed, and the broken long spear and shield flew into the air.
Like Huang Zhong, Yang Ye has studied sword skills and has understood the tricks of how to externalize sword energy, and can clear a small gap at a time.
It just transforms into sword energy to kill the enemy, which consumes too much energy.
Xue Rengui, Ma Wu danced wildly in Fang Tian's painting halberd, and harvested the Qin army like mowed grass, killing the Qin army as much as possible.
