Chapter 41: Cutting Yan (I)
"Mingjin withdraws his troops. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć After looking at the battle situation of Qin Yan in front of him on the high ground, Wang Jian frowned, and then immediately ordered a retreat.
Qin Yan's army, in comparison, must be better than the Great Qin soldiers, but at this time, the Yan army had four white tigers, and these four white tigers brought a large number of casualties to the soldiers of Great Qin, which seriously affected the morale of the Great Qin army, and Wang Jian had to retreat.
"White Tiger. Like Wang Jian and Meng Tian, who was also standing on the high ground, Ye Wuji, looked at the four white tigers that were five or six meters high and about seven or eight meters long, and muttered in a low voice.
In such a war, with these four white tigers present, the morale of the Yan army has obviously risen significantly, and the existence of these four white tigers on the side of Great Qin has not been able to confront them.
This time, Ying Zheng sent Wang Jian to attack Yan State, mainly under a pretense, and the army only sent 200,000, just to put pressure on Yan State, after all, Ying Zheng had just destroyed Wei State, and he didn't want to use troops against Yan State so quickly, and Ying Zheng's next target was not Yan State.
Ying Zheng's next target is the Chu State, which is rich in land and resources, as long as Yan Guo does not make trouble for Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng is ready to let Yan Guo live for a while longer.
But Jing Ke's assassination made Ying Zheng angry, and with the order brought by the shadow guard, let Wang Jian go all out to attack Yan State, and Ying Zheng has also let Wang Ben come to 200,000 troops to support Wang Qian, since Yan Dan wants to fight, then Ying Zheng doesn't mind destroying Yan State first, and then plotting against Chu State.
Although Wang Ben's reinforcements had not yet arrived, Wang Jian had begun to formulate a strategic plan to destroy Yan since he received Ying Zheng's order, and at the same time began a tentative attack.
"The Mo family is actually on the side of Yan Guo, and it is a little troublesome. After retreating, in Wang Qian's camp, Wang Jian looked at the sand table on the border between Qin and Chu in front of him, and couldn't help frowning.
The Yan army on the opposite side also has 200,000, but the Yan army is defending the city, and these 200,000 are more than enough, while the 200,000 army of Great Qin is besieging the city, so this amount of strength is not enough.
Sun Tzu's Art of War: Ten times surround it, triple attack it. Although it is not necessary to follow what Sun Tzu said in the Art of War, the strength of the besieging side must reach at least three times that of the defending army, which is an element that all famous generals know.
Even if Wang Jian wants to rely on the same force to defeat the defenders with the same strength, although it is not impossible, it is also very difficult, if the opponent's main general is more mediocre, it is still possible.
But now the main general of the other party, although he is not a famous general, but he is also an ordinary good general, plus the same strength, the other party also has the Mo family's machine beast to help defend the city, even Wang Jian has no way to capture the opponent's city now.
Especially this time the Qin army is mainly here to deter the Yan army, although the entourage also brought the Gongyi family's machine beasts, but it is only some light machine beasts such as machine bats, and it is useless to bring one of the heavy machine beasts such as Potu Saburo, and the machine bat was finished by the Mo family organ Vermilion Bird on the opposite side, and the machine bat flew without the Vermilion Bird high, nor with the Vermilion Bird fast, it was a target in the air, fortunately, only two Vermilion Birds appeared in the Yan Kingdom so far, otherwise Wang Jiandou would have ordered the Qin army camp to retreat five miles away.
"If the other party has dozens of white tigers and dozens of Vermilion Birds, the Qin army really may not be able to win. Ye Wuji looked at the sand table and thought endlessly.
After the order of Yingzheng to attack Yan brought by the shadow guard, a few days after Ye Wuji, he also received information from Xianyang City from Parrot Song.
After seeing that half of the entire Xianyang Palace was destroyed, Ye Wuji couldn't help but secretly sigh, Jing Ke's martial arts looked similar to Gai Nie.
Count the masters of the Mo family as a whole, the six-fingered black man, Jing Ke, Yan Dan, Qin Wuyang, Gao Yanli, thief, etc., it is worthy of being the third Mo family in the hundred schools of thought, it is really a master, there are three masters at the vertical and horizontal level, six-fingered black man, Jing Ke, Yan Dan, plus Gao Yanli and Qin Wuyang, two masters who are far from the top, only one line of masters, and the four spirit beasts of the Mo family, the strength is really strong.
However, this kind of strength is only ranked third among the hundred schools of thought, and the first and second are Taoism and Confucianism respectively, so you can imagine how strong Taoism and Confucianism are.
The farmer's family, which has 100,000 disciples, six masters, and the twenty-four formations of Dize, which is said to have been passed down from Shennong, only rehearses the fourth.
There is no need to say much about Taoism, the absolute right master is like a cloud, not to mention the Yin and Yang family that was separated before, it is now the Tianzong and the Human Sect that Taoism is divided, and the Tianzong alone has the strength to rank first, not to mention adding a human sect that can at least enter the top ten of the hundred schools of Zhuzi.
But if you really want to talk about it, it is still the most amazing sect in the Ghost Valley, with only three people, but it is in the top ten of the hundred schools of thought.
It's a pity that the Mo family has now gone to the three masters, the six-fingered black man, Jing Ke, Qin Wuyang, the Mo family has lost more than half of its strength this time, if there are no four spirit beasts, the Mo family may not even be able to protect the top three positions.
The reason why the Mo family in the back is so weak compared to the other hundred schools of thought is because Yan Dan squandered the masters of the Mo family.
"For today's plan, the only way to do this is to ask for the support of the Gongyi family. Meng Tian suggested in the middle of it.
"Yes, the machine beast that can fight against the Mo family, only the machine beast of the Gong Loss Clan, I have already written to the king, the Organ Beast of the Gong Loss Clan, it should be delivered soon. Wang Jian nodded.
"I don't know what Childe thinks. Wang Jian suddenly asked, Ye Wuji, who seemed to be thinking about it on the side.
"Ahh Ye Wuji exclaimed in surprise, he was thinking about the affairs of the hundred schools of thought just now, but he didn't think about the affairs of Yan Kingdom, because no matter what Yan Dan did, he couldn't change the fate of Yan Kingdom.
"What was Childe thinking just now, if it's convenient, you might as well say it and listen to it. Meng Tian said with a smile.
Ye Wuji looked at Wang Qian, couldn't help but move in his heart, and said, "I think of a strange military formation that the teacher saw outside the Saiwai. ā
"Teacher"
"Military formation. ā
"Not bad. Ye Wuji continued, "My teacher is a strange person, he always wanted to see how big this world is, so he crossed the Huns, went to the extreme north, and saw a battle between barbarians there, on one side was the heavily armored cavalry, and on the other side was completely infantry, but in the end, the infantry won completely, they used a peculiar military formation, completely restrained the heavy armored cavalry, my teacher felt strange, so he wrote it down." ā
"Oh, there is such a military formation, I don't know if Gongzi can say it, let us open our eyes" Wang Jian immediately showed a curious expression, the infantry restrained the cavalry, except for Wei Wushu, Wang Jian had not seen it.
In this era, there is no spear array of later generations.
"That's right. Ye Wuji said the layout of the Macedonian phalanx, and at the same time looked at Meng Tian with a meaningful vision that he only understood, he had already leaked the content of this phalanx to Meng Tian.
"I didn't expect a barbarian to be able to think of such a military formation, but that's it. Wang Qian's face was still very solemn at first, but after a while, Wang Qian's face relaxed, and for ordinary people, the Macedonian phalanx may not be solved.
But for a famous general of Wang Qian's level, the Macedonian phalanx has too many flaws, and perhaps only those who come into contact with this kind of military formation for the first time will suffer a big loss, but as long as they have been contacted once, this kind of military formation wants to exert so much power, don't think about it.
"It's nothing more than that, but if it's the first time you see it, even the Golden Fire Cavalry will suffer. Meng Tian said thoughtfully.
"Indeed, although there are many flaws in this kind of military formation, there are still many that we can learn from, write it down, and then let the people below discuss how to crack this military formation. Wang Jian said to the deputy general beside him.
The poor Macedonian phalanx has not yet entered the sight of China, and its method of cracking it has sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
"Hmph, Mo family. After Ying Zheng received the information from the front line, he immediately threw the bamboo slips on the ground angrily. It's no wonder that Ying Zheng is angry, the hundred schools of thought have always looked down on Daqin, and Ying Zheng will endure this, after all, although the hundred schools of thought look down on Daqin, they have not clearly stood in a certain country and openly opposed Daqin, but this Mojia's action means that the hundred schools of thought will participate in this battle for the general trend of the world.
"Offense. As the war drums sounded, the soldiers of Great Qin, thinking of the tide of the army of the Yan Kingdom, rushed forward, and the majestic giant sweat was sweating like rain and kept beating the war drums.
After the arrival of Wang Ben's army, the Gongyi family's organ beast Broken Earth Saburo also arrived, a total of six, Broken Tu Saburo, even with the full support of Daqin, the Gongyi family has only built more than ten over the years, except for the four gates of Xianyang City, each guarded by a broken earth Saburo, the rest are distributed in the various armies of Daqin.
Of course, it is now mainly distributed on the battlefield against the Chu State, and two of these six planes were transferred from Xianyang City, so you can imagine how angry Ying Zheng was at Yan State at this time.
At the same time that the soldiers of Daqin rushed up, the trebuchet made by the Gongyi family also began to play a role, and the boulder with a size of about two meters was thrown into the city of Yan by the trebuchet.
"Bang bang bang. "The battle between Breaking Earth Saburo and White Tiger also began, the two sides kept colliding, and with their entanglement, the soldiers of Great Qin retreated even farther away, because as long as they appeared next to these two giant machine beasts, they would be torn apart by the two machine beasts.
Purely in terms of attack power, the attack power of Breaking Earth Saburo is above that of the White Tiger, but in terms of action and flexibility, Breaking Earth Saburo is too much worse.
Fortunately, now Daqin is the attacker, and the White Tiger must guard against Po Tu Saburo to participate in the attack on the city wall, so many times, he has to stand in front of Po Tu Saburo.
However, even if Saburo's attack is stronger than that of the White Tiger, the White Tiger's defense is not weak, and it will be difficult to destroy the White Tiger for a while.
"Are you coming? Ye Wuji quietly looked at the Suzaku flying from the other direction, now it is not the soldiers of Daqin who have caused the most damage to the Yan army, nor is it the Broken Earth Saburo, to be honest, the Broken Earth Saburo Formation is not the opponent of the White Tiger.
Now it is not Tianming, Shaoyu, and Yue'er who are driving the White Tiger, but the elite disciples of the Mo family, who have always been the drivers of the White Tiger.
Now the most harmful to the Yan army are the ten trebuchets, these trebuchets not only do great damage, but the most important thing is that they have the greatest impact on morale.
Of course, Wang Jian also knew that Yan Guo would definitely find a way to deal with the trebuchet first, so the trebuchet was heavily defended by her heavy troops.
"It's almost there, old man, you can hurry up and pick us up, or we'll die." "On the Suzaku, there are only three people, the thief, the high gradual departure, the old man of the class, on the technique of driving the Suzaku, the old man of the class said that it is the second, and absolutely no one is called the first.
"Don't worry, but be careful, the defenses there are definitely the strongest. As the old man spoke, Suzaku had gradually come to the sky above where the trebuchet was.
At this time, Xiao Gao had already pulled out the water cold sword, and he was lucky, because the time he could give them to destroy the trebuchet was too short, and he only opened it as soon as he came up, "The wind is sluggish and the water is cold." ā
"I'll go first, you have to take advantage of the opportunity. As he spoke, he jumped down from the Suzaku, a height of dozens of meters, as if it was flat ground for the thief.
"Whoosh. The thief, who landed lightly, without a trace of dust, immediately took out his weapon and rushed in the direction of the trebuchet.
"If an enemy is invading, stop them. At this time, the surrounding guards Qin Jun also discovered the thief, and at the same time began to rush towards the thief.
However, for the thief, he didn't pay attention to these Qin troops at all, and with his peerless light skills, he passed through the gap of the Qin army at a very fast speed, and at this time the thief had come to the side of the first trebuchet, looking at the trebuchet that was close at hand, the thief's flywheel, and immediately cut it.
In the Mo family for so many years, although the thief did not know much about the mechanism, but he had a deep experience in how to destroy the mechanism, such a large trebuchet, as long as one place was destroyed, it would be scrapped.
"Over to you. Ye Wuji looked at the person who fell from the sky, and said to the ink crow behind him, the ink crow only came in the last few days, and after the parrot song heard the news in Xianyang City, he brought the ink crow over,
"Understood. As soon as the crow's body moved, it immediately disappeared from behind Ye Wuji, and the next moment it appeared in front of the thief.
"What do you want to do?" the crow appeared in front of and behind the thief, a faint smile on his face, looking at the thief who was close at hand.
"Huh," the thief stabbed at the crow in front of him with a rapid selection sound from the flywheel.
"The speed is good, but it's not enough. A black feather was imprinted in front of the thief's eyes, and the next moment the ink crow had appeared behind the thief.
"Hmph. The thief suddenly snorted coldly, separated into two figures, and rushed in both directions, "The lightning god walks." ā
"Interesting. Another crow immediately appeared behind him, and then two crows chased after the two thieves.
