Chapter 34 Useless
The Chu army's formation must always be faster than the Qin army. If you are willing, the Chu army can immediately change into a small formation with a width of fifteen people when the Qin army is arranged, and then change it back before the Qin army is arranged. However, this kind of tossing is of no use. The narrower the Qin army's formation is in line with the Chu army's wishes. The narrower the army, the thicker the army, the more people will be killed.
The generals of the divisions who knew what strategy they would take in this battle led Xiao to look at the Qin army in formation, Xiao to watch the Qin army step by step in the ring of the bell. Every step they took and every step forward, they were closer to defeat and death.
The general led the soldiers, worried that flint would not get angry and that the gunpowder would fail to do anything to damage morale, and that Da Ao had asked the Qin people to bring disaster upon the disaster, and did not explicitly state the details of the disaster. The 300,000 Qin troops were approaching step by step with their soldiers and flags. The atmosphere between the array was tense instantly. Some people shouted, some prayed, some cursed, and some even hurriedly raised their spears to the top, but this action was immediately stopped by the generals.
The soldiers were excited and moved, and the spear hit their chests. This sound gradually became the biggest sound in the Chu army array. They gathered rhythmically to form an exciting sound.
Xiong Jing inspected the Chu army array that lasted fifteen miles amid the sound of the sound of the sound. The most conspicuous decoration on his body, who was not wearing Wei Ban's suit, was the red cloak, and the iron helmet filled with colorful feathers. Whenever he visited the array, he would lead his soldiers to beat his chest in an orderly manner and shout long live. Long live one division shouted, and in order to surpass the former, the other division often shouted louder and his fighting spirit soared into the sky.
There were only one thousand two hundred steps in four miles, and the southeast wind brought the Chu army's shouts over again, which made the Qin army breathe more rapidly, and the sweat flowing out of the sun almost confused their eyes. Fortunately, the Qin army stopped moving forward when it reached 900 steps, because the front was already the range of killing the Chu army's witchcraft.
The Chu army had only three in the middle of the fifteen-mile array, and the rest were knights. The infantry knights ignored the Qin army nine hundred steps away and only looked at Da Ao, who was riding fast in front of the formation. When he reached the last time of the queue, the west-most jockeying master led Qi Jizeng and shouted: "All the troops have it! Draw - a sword!"
"Draw the sword!" The commander of the brigade and the commander of the brigade repeated the commander's order, and thousands of riding swords were unsheathed, shooting out the light of killing in the sun.
According to the action of stabbing the sword, he unsheathed the sword and pointed forward. At this time, Xiong Jing rode his horse past, and his sword intersected with each sword, making a crisp loud sound. It seemed to be instilling huge witch power. Every time he attacked and every crisp sound, the witch power was entered into the knight's body, making them boil and excited.
Before the soldiers stopped, Meng Tian stared at Xiong Jing, staring at his every move. The last time he met was ten years ago. Xiong Jing was a young and tender boy with a white face and no beard. This time he saw him again, he had become a heroic warrior. Seeing him attacking the Chu army knights with his sword, Meng Tian sighed sincerely and felt sorry for himself: "King Jing!"
The Jing people ten years ago could not win the respect of any Qin people. Ten years later, the Jing people not only won the respect of the Qin people, but also gained the fear of the Qin people. If it weren't for the Jing people's defeat in the Battle of Daze, the Qin people would have probably lost their country. All of these were caused by one person: King Jing.
However, King Jing will be defeated today. The 300,000 Qin troops were all elite. The old soldiers who participated in the Battle of Changping were incorporated into two fronts. With 300,000 elite troops against a mere 60,000 Jing people, five times the enemy. Meng Tian really couldn't think of a reason for his failure.
This is an era of many heroes, but not an era in which one or two heroes can reverse the trend. The Qin Dynasty was destined to unify the world. Thinking that King Jing would die here and die at his own hands, Meng Tian couldn't help but sigh.
"Please give orders to the general!" Meng Tian looked at Xiong Jing running from the west, watching him rushing past the central army, and then watched him rushing to the east. At this time, the Qin army's array was already in order, and the cavalry before the central army was also waiting.
"Hu!" Meng Tian nodded and ordered. He did not order attack, but ordered Hu.
"Long live the Great Qin!" The military officers in the military formation shouted, and then the soldiers in the array also shouted: "Long live the Great Qin!"
"Long live the Great Qin!" The military officers who commanded them to shout again, and then all the soldiers shouted continuously: "Long live the Great Qin! Long live the Great Qin! Long live the Great Qin..."
The soldiers attacked the plan, followed by the breaking of the friendship. Without the ring man, the most important way to break the friendship is to shout the soldiers. The shouting of 300,000 people is far better than that of 60,000 people. At this time, the Chu soldiers on the opposite side laughed wildly, and some soldiers simply took out their trousers and pointed them at the Qin people nine hundred steps away. In the sound of play, Chu sang, and the Chu soldiers who gradually integrated into the singing became solemn and pious. They were waiting for the Qin army to attack and wait for the army's life behind them.
In Lu Li's mirror, the reactions of the Chu army nine hundred steps away fell into Meng Tian's heart. For an army that had established psychological advantages, breaking the relationship was useless. They did not believe that they would be defeated by the Qin army. Meng Tian waved helplessly and ordered: "Attack!"
"Attack--!" The military officials were dragging their tunes. Before they finished shouting, the drums were shaking. The drums who had been waiting long ago beat the drums. The rumbling drums covered the singing of the Chu army. Five thousand cavalry and horsemen rode horses in front of the central army formation, and their target was the Chu army artillery formation.
Wang Yi was among the five thousand cavalrymen. He had to lead his subordinates to rush towards the Jing people's witchcraft formation. The drum sounded like an order. He looked back at the flag in despair and shouted decisively: "Go!Go!!"
Five thousand cavalrymen only attacked at one time, and two hundred and fifty cavalry were in a row, with the width of the array far greater than the width of the cannon formation. The thickness of the cavalry formation was incomparable to the cannon formation. There were twenty rows of the entire cavalry formation.
With the orders of Wang Yi and other cavalry generals, the first line of two hundred and fifty cavalry galloped vigorously. After the first line of 20 steps, the second line of 250 cavalry followed closely; after the second line of 20 steps, the third line of 3 follow... When the first line of 400 steps was outside, the last line of 3 starts to take steps.
The cavalry ran for more than a hundred steps, and the speed increased to the fastest. Twenty thousand horses' hooves were galloping in the dry mud, trampling out wave after wave of dust. In the cannon array, Shen Qing's voice echoed: "It's ready..., it's ready..., it's ready..."
The closer the cavalry, the more trembling the earth, the more deafening the sound of the hooves. He tried his best to raise his tone so that all gunners could hear his voice. His eyes were fixed on a sign outside the Jutien Net, which meant four hundred steps. Four hundred steps was the distance to shoot double shotguns, and he had to wait patiently for the Qin cavalry to rush to this distance.
"It's ready-!" The Qin cavalry was getting faster and faster, so fast that it seemed to be speeding, and all the soldiers in the army were sweating. When they thought the Qin cavalry was about to rush into the cannon formation, Shen Qing shouted: "Let go!"
"Let's go!" The cannon leader who had been waiting for a long time let out a roar.
‘Boom-!’ The fifty-seven cannons opened fire almost at the same time, and the smoke spread around the cannon array, and then was quickly blown by the southeast wind in the direction of the Qin cavalry. No one looked at the target. The gunmen cleaned the cannon chamber at the most opened speed, loaded the shotgun at the fastest speed, and pulled the fuse at the fastest speed.
Well-trained artillery guards can shoot at a speed of two shots per minute, and in extreme cases, they can reach three shots per minute. If the cavalrymen who are four hundred steps away are not blocked, they will be scattered by the enemy cavalry. Before the war, the artillery guards nailed wooden stakes in front of the position and pulled a giant wire mesh. Enough iron trunks were scattered into the net. Before the war, they received the order to keep firing shotguns until the barrel was red.
The sound of the cannons began to be neat, and then it was scattered. However, the sound of the cannons still covered the rolling thunder, causing the earth to tremble the sound of hooves. After the first cannon, the first row of Qin cavalry running into four hundred steps was swept across by the unseen shotguns. The war horses suddenly neighed and then fell forward. The second row of war horses also made a whine cry, but because of the first row's blockage, they barely ran.
When the second round of cannon sounded, blood holes suddenly appeared on the bodies of these barely galloping war horses, and then they fell to the ground with their horsemen. But in the third row and the fourth row of horsemen crossed them without hesitation, and continued to rush forward. At this time, they had already rushed into one hundred and fifty steps, putting them into the low giant silk mesh one end.
The mega wire mesh is very low, the lower it is, the firmer it is. Hundreds of war horses rushed in and were immediately tripped. When the tripped war horses and horses struggled to get up, the sound of cannons sounded again. The horsemen touched the chest and abdomen who were shot with an incredible expression, and finally fell down. As before, when the three and four horsemen fell down, the fifth and sixth rows of horsemen stepped forward on their bodies, and then continued to trip over the mega wire mesh and fell into the rain of bullets sprayed from the muzzle.
"Add to speed up!" Meng Tian, who had been watching the cavalry rushing forward, suddenly accelerated his heart. He saw the hope of the cavalry breaking the witchcraft. His shouting made the drumman beat the drum even harder. At this time, the cavalry rushing forward could only see the front row constantly falling down, and heard the sound of cannons between sounds, and knew nothing else.
With all his strength, the war horses passed over the still bleeding corpse of horses on the ground and fell into the giant wire mesh. Then they were tripped by the giant wire mesh and blood flowed in the shotgun. But soon the cavalry behind rushed back again, reenacting the bloody scene before. When the 16th row of cavalry tried to leap over the dead horse corpses, they could no longer leap, and more than three thousand horse corpses formed a low wall.
The artillery position was not broken through, but because the horse corpse formed a low wall, no matter what shell the artillery fired, it would be blocked. Seeing this scene, the 300,000 Qin troops suddenly shouted and cheered. The witch weapon they feared the most was useless, and the witch bomb could no longer hit them! The Jing people were defeated! The Jing people were defeated this time!
The cheers from the bottom of his heart were far superior to those who shouted "Long live the Qin Dynasty" under the leadership of the military officers. Meng Tian and the generals of each army were also overjoyed when they saw this scene. They finally defeated the Jing people's witchcraft.
