Chapter 100 Death 3

Jing Sheng's words made Xiong Jing laugh. There was a discussion on how to break the formation of the three wedge formations, and there was also discussion on whether to break the formation today. It has been agreed that he was responsible for the first formation, Gui Jing was responsible for the second formation, and Jing Sheng was responsible for the third formation. In addition, the 100 cavalry who threw spherical grenades in front, each formation was only more than 630 cavalry, and the three formations had a total of 1,900 cavalry. The remaining third division of the light cavalry was still led by Qi Jizeng, and the heavy cavalry was followed to expand the results.

The heavy cavalry with a spear formation of a hundred rows in depth cannot break away. The heavy cavalry with a spear formation of a spear formation of a forty rows in depth may not be able to break away as long as the spherical grenade can explode accurately. Thinking of this, Xiong Jing couldn't help but smile. Wang Jian was probably afraid that he would use gunpowder to explode the formation, so he separated the Qin army formation one by one. Didn't he think that the thin array could not withstand the impact of the heavy cavalry and the spear formation?

When Xiong Jing laughed, the Xiang army, the Huainan division, was crossing the bridge, and they were going to set up a formation first at the bridge. Seeing the Chu army lined up across the bridge, the two wings of the Qin army's cavalry flags were connected, and the trumpet sounded, and the cavalry in gray armor ran towards the bridge. The enemy was not yet firmly established, which was the right thing to do. The Chu army's artillery had not landed on the shore, so it had to be said that this was an excellent opportunity. Then there were no artillery, bows, arrows, and spear formations. When the Qin cavalry reached 70 steps, a command from the floating bridge, more than a thousand heavy armor-breaking arrows flew out in the north wind.

The arrows were all horned eagle feathers, and they had strong wind resistance. When the arrow fell from the air, more than a thousand Qin cavalry arrived. The gray-white linen armored heavy arrow did not penetrate, but the arrow was still inserted into the armor after it hit. It seemed that the Qin cavalrymen were hit by several arrows. The cavalry was only a few seconds away from the cavalry, and the archer seized the last chance to shoot the arrow again.

The spearmen at the bridge were quickly arranged, not small square formations of fifteen people, but storm formations of sixty people. When the Qin cavalry rushed to more than twenty steps in front of him, the spearmen in front were bent over and stepped on the spears on the ground, waiting for the fierce attack of the Qin cavalry.

‘Boom boom boom boom…’ The Qin army cavalry rushed over, and they did not shoot arrows. After knowing that the arrows were ineffective against the giant armor, the arm crossbow and the grave of the arm crossbow had disappeared from the Qin army's combat soldiers. Seeing the Chu army's spears waiting for the formation, the formation was more than twenty rows. The Caucus, which had nearly twenty steps and had a body full of arrow feathers, did not turn, but directly collided with the spear formation in front of them.

The neighing of the war horses and the sound of "papa" breaking spears were endless. The rider on the rider pierced through the huge armor and knocked back the two rows of spears in front. However, the spear formation was not a row of spears, and the rows of spears in front had long been aimed at the enemy cavalry that might impact them. The spears that cut off the spears in front of the spears in front continued to resist the war horses. The sharp spears stabbed on the linen armor, but they could not even stabbed in.

All this happened in the flash of light and lightning. The Chokha who completed the impact was still leaving, retreating from the right side of the spear formation that had just been impacted. They had just evacuated, and the next wave of Chokha came again as they had just happened. Xiong Jing, Gui Jing and others on the south bank were stunned. This was obviously the heavy cavalry tactics of the Chu army, and the Qin people also learned this.

"Cloud armor! The Qin people have cloth armor!" Pan Yu, the general of the archer, also saw this scene. Before, the Qin people could not play with the cavalry. When they attacked the Zhao army's array, they were repelled by the Zhao army with heavy arrows. Now they have heavy armor that cannot be shot through with heavy arrows, so they can play the heavy cavalry tactics of the Chu army.

"This is what..." Xiong Jing was amused and crying. He didn't expect that the Qin people really found a solution to heavy horses wearing armor. The linen armor was obviously lighter than the huge armor. The war horse weighing more than 300 kilograms was covered with linen armor. The knights were also wearing linen armor, and they could indeed rush forward like the heavy horses of the Chu army.

The cavalry in front rushed forward. On the south bank, the Xiang Shi and the Huainan Shishi were running wildly, for fear that the spear formation of his troops would be broken by the Qin people. Xiong Jing was about to ask what to do, and a few roars of 'boom', the cannons on the floating boats on both sides of the pontoon bridge suddenly fired.

Unlike the Battle of Weinan, the Chu army did not have floating boats in the Battle of Weinan. In this battle, the Chu army had floating boats. In order to prevent the Qin army's boat division from rushing to the floating bridge, these floating boats were separated on both sides of the floating bridge. The Qin army's cavalry rushed suddenly, and after rushing, the horses turned around and prepared to rush again. The artillery bars on the floating boat adjusted the angle and fired the cannon quickly. Because they were located on both sides of the spear formation, these cannons could be cross-fired, and the shells flew obliquely from the front of the spear formation and hit the Qin people's cavalry in front of the spear formation.

The shotgun was not fired, and all the shots were fired. The solid shots flew out and broke several horses that were galloping. The horses seemed to be torn apart in the air by an invisible pair of hands, and were broken into two pieces in blood. The knights on the horse also fell from mid-air, landing on the ground, then rolled in as they ran forward.

‘Boom…’ When the cannon sounded again, the sound of the retreating cavalry also sounded melodiously. It was found that the rushing cavalry would be bombarded by the cannons on the floating boat on the ditch bank. Zhao Teng, the general of the chavalry, had to recall the precious chavalry.

The Chu infantrymen had not seen heavy cavalry rushing forward, but they had never been subjected to heavy cavalry rushing forward. The artillery guards bombarded the enemy cavalry and made them cheer, especially those soldiers who were broken by the cavalry and broken their tiger's mouth. Xiong Jing's face was a little severe when he heard the soldiers cheering. He thought of the role of flax armor, but he did not expect that flax armor could allow the Qin army to have a real heavy cavalry.

Once again, he felt that choosing the winter ice battle was correct. If he waited, who knew what new things would come out by the Qin people. This time the torsion catapult and linen armor were already surprising - the Qin people occupied the whole world's horse-herding land and had hundreds of thousands of natural horsemen. If they really had to wait for another year or two, the Chow cavalry would not be thousands, but tens of thousands.

"In this battle, I want to break the formation with a heavy cavalry!" Xiong Jing looked at Zhuang Wudi and others. After the cavalry was driven back by artillery, the Chu army had already swayed across the ditch.

"No!" Zhuang Wudi immediately objected. "How can the method of breaking the formation be used again and again?"

"It's true." Deng Sui also said: "This is a partial teacher of the Qin people. Since it is a partial teacher, it should break the formation with a spear. This is what the shogunate is talking about, why did Da Ao rebel?"

After confirming that the Qin army had only more than 200,000, the shogunate completely opposed the heavy cavalry breaking the formation, but Xiong Jing and the cavalry generals were still thinking about heavy cavalry breaking the formation. Deng then opposed the heavy cavalry breaking the formation as the shogunate discussed, which made Xiong Jing helpless.

"If you do not break the enemy formation by rushing the spear, the heavy cavalry should attack the formation." Xiong Jing emphasized the opportunity he had won for the heavy cavalry. He gradually felt that the infantry and the knights seemed to have a tendency to evolve into enemies, which made him very bad.

"The Qin army array is only forty lines, how can I not break it?" Deng Sui smiled. He had full confidence in defeating the Qin army array.

Spear array array and gun array array. Seeing that there were still many artillery on the floating ships on both sides of the floating bridge, the Qin army, which should have advanced, was in a dilemma. If the cavalry launched a desperate attack on the Chu army's artillery array as planned, the infantry would have to take advantage of the rare opportunity of the cavalry to launch an attack toward the Chu army to form a melee. However, when the cavalry rushed towards the Chu army array before, they were bombarded by the artillery on the floating ships on both sides. If the infantry rushed forward, they would definitely be bombarded by the floating ship artillery.

If the attack is not launched immediately, the Chu army will advance and the artillery will also advance forward. The shells are still killed by seven hundred steps away, and the artillery is pushing closer and closer. When the floating boat cannon cannot kill the infantry rushing forward, the distance between three and four hundred steps has caused a great blow to the Qin army array.

It is best to retreat. Our military formation is not to be 700 steps away from the Chu army artillery formation, but to be 700 steps away from the cross-killing place with floating ship artillery. But retreat... More than 200,000 soldiers knew that they would die, and their morale was at a low point. Once the retreat array was in chaos, the battle might be defeated.

"The Jing people are witches and weapons are coming! Xin Duwei asks the general to order his retreat." A cavalry rushed over, asking Wang Ben to retreat.

"Report to General, General Hufen, please beat the drum quickly, no longer late!" A cavalry general rushed over, asking Wang Ben to attack immediately.

"No, no. Jing people's witchcraft is not in front of the formation, and there are also witchcrafts on the tower ship..." The Chu army formation was lined up, and the strategists around Wang Ben argued endlessly about whether to attack or retreat. Even Wang Li, a big curtain counselor sent by Wang Jian to supervise his son, also participated in this debate.

‘Boom…’ The Chu army’s artillery was pushing forward and firing, and the spear formations of the divisions behind the artillery array followed closely. The sun set and as they advanced, the sunlight shone brightly on the giant armor. The sound of the cannon made the Qin army strategist even more panicked. Seeing that the Chu army had advanced more than 100 steps, Wang Li shouted: “The harm of using troops is the greatest hesitation. Please ask the major general to decide whether to advance or retreat.”

Wang Ben was sweating all over, and his mind was still falling into the hole and couldn't jump out. He wanted to send more cavalrymen to attack the cannons that could be fired on both sides of the Chu army's array, but this idea was opposed by the counselors around him as soon as it was exited. Those cannons were not on land, but on the gap, and no matter how many cavalrymen could not rush to the cannon formation on the floating ship.

"Major General! Major General!" Seeing that Wang Ben was still in a daze, Wang Li grabbed his arm and shook it hard, pointing at the Chu army who was advancing, shouting: "The people of Jing are advancing, attacking or retreating, and quickly decide!"

The Chu army was indeed getting closer and closer, and Wang Ben finally returned to the current reality from his thoughts. His eyes became wider and wider, his mouth was wider and wider, and his chest was undulating, and a little fear was pressed out of his throat: "Beat the drum! Attack--!"

"Beat the drum! Attack--!" Everyone around them were waiting for Wang Ben's orders. Whether it was those who wanted to attack or those who wanted to retreat, they all breathed heavily. Since the main general had issued the order to attack, then handed over everything to God.

Hearing the sound of drums, the rushing spitted immediately. His cavalry sword was unsheathed and pointed at the Chu army getting closer and closer. Seeing that he ordered a charge, the horn suddenly erupted, and the cavalry in the front row urged his horse to step forward and rushed towards the Chu army artillery formation more than 500 steps away.

At the Shahai Camp twenty miles north, Wang Jian, who was standing on the high place holding Lu Lijing, had just sweated for his son. The sound of the attacking drum also made him breathe, but after breathing, he sighed deeply, and tears couldn't help but drip on his cheeks. The north bank of the Great Valley was dead, and no matter what, his son could not come back.
