Chapter 294: The Chase on the Plains

Regarding this carriage, Qin Zhongyu had already sat on it once before.

Not to mention that this carriage is pulled by eight horses, and its speed is like a galloping wind, which is already considered a good treasure. It also has special abilities, and it is unique among the treasures that Qin Zhongyu has seen so far.

It is said that the carriage was capable of producing thirty-six identical carriages at the same time as it traveled, and that unless it was able to break all thirty-six carriages, it would not be possible to injure a single hair of the people in the carriage.

Undoubtedly, such a carriage can greatly ensure the safety of the people in the car, and it is also a pretty good way to avoid enemy attacks.

After getting into the carriage, Qin Zhongyu really felt that the surrounding space began to move again, and then looked out the window, and the other thirty-six carriages had already stopped neatly around.

"I now order, all carriages go in different directions!" Time was pressing, and Ying Zheng immediately gave the order.

"Drive!"

Qin Zhongyu could hear the soldiers driving the carriage waving the reins, and then the carriage began to gallop rapidly under the guidance of eight horses.

……

Hephaestion saw from a distance thirty-six identical golden carriages suddenly appear in front of him.

Then Hephaestion saw that the carriages were speeding away in different directions.

"Hmm...... This first emperor of the Qin Empire is really a lot of strange treasures......" Hephaestion thought about it, and still said to the people around him, "All the horses are divided into thirty-six teams and will pursue them separately!"

"Lord Hephaestion......" said Ptolemy, who was following Hephaestion, with some concern, "in that case, will our team be too loose, and it will be troublesome to let the other side break each one by then......

Hephaestion didn't look worried at all, but said with a smile: "It's okay, you don't have to worry about this kind of thing...... They don't dare to attack at will, once they attack, it is tantamount to revealing which carriage they are in, and then we will gather forces to encircle and suppress that carriage ......"

"Is that so...... Lord Hephaestion, you have a point, but I beg that I should not be sent to any other team, and that I be with you to protect your safety, for this is what Your Majesty wants...... I dare not disobey ......," said Ptolemy.

"Okay...... You'll just stay with me......" Hephaestion nodded.

Then Hephaestion ordered his squad leader to divide the original 3,000-strong personal guard cavalry into thirty-six groups, each group of about 80 people, and then split up to pursue.

Hephaestion himself chose a carriage furthest from his side as the target of pursuit.

So on the vast plain, there was a grand scene of pursuit.

Thirty-six carriages were speeding in different directions, and behind these thirty-six carriages were thirty-six cavalry teams in hot pursuit!

Although Yingzheng's carriage is indeed quite fast, the carriage is a carriage after all, and if you drag the carriage and personnel, the speed will inevitably be affected. And the cavalry of Alexander's personal guards who followed closely behind also rode the best horses, and gave up some of the more bulky equipment, so they naturally had a greater advantage in speed!

Seeing that the distance between the carriage and the cavalry was getting closer and closer.

After a few more moments, a group of Alexander's personal guards had approached the nearest carriage.

They chased for a moment, and then began to speed parallel to the carriage, but even then, no one could see the inside of the carriage.

"Report to the captain, I don't know if there is someone in the carriage, what should we do now?"

"Stop, of course!"

"Yes!"

Two of Alexander's personal guards went around the sides of the carriage and, as if they had already had a tacit understanding, thrust their spears into the carriage's rapidly turning wheels!

"Titicaca!"

Because of the collision with the high-speed wheel, the spear was instantly shattered by the spokes of the car!

On the other hand, however, the wheels of the carriage were also affected, and the wheels that had been moving rapidly slowed down as a result, and then traveled some distance before coming to a stop.

"Ahhhh

Before the carriage had completely stopped, the soldiers of the Qin Army, who were originally in charge of driving the carriage, had already drawn their swords from their waists and rushed towards one of Alexander's personal guard cavalrymen who was the first to approach the carriage!

"Bang!click!"

However, before the Qin soldier could get closer, several Macedonian cavalrymen around him had already pierced the body of the Qin soldier with their spears.

This is Alexander's personal guard cavalry, they have undergone the most rigorous training, and in terms of combat effectiveness, they are naturally far superior to the ordinary soldiers of the previous combined phalanx, and it is not an exaggeration to even think that they are one enemy and ten.

Not only that, but they also have the advantage of numbers, and they sit on tall warhorses, armed with spears, and are condescending, how can ordinary infantry pose a threat to them?

But in this way, this Qin army is still fearless.

"Hmm......"

The Qin soldier took half a step back, and despite his physical injuries, he grabbed the spear pierced in his body with his hand when his body was pierced, and tried to tear down a cavalryman who was sitting on horseback with a spear in his hand.

"Hmph, I can't help myself......"

The soldier picked it up a little harder, and the Qin soldier not only did not pull the other party off his horse, but let the other party throw his body out at once!

"Smack!"

The Qin soldier fell to the ground heavily, and this time, he couldn't get up again after all.

"Open the door!"

Someone drew a short knife and smashed the door of the carriage to pieces.

However, the inside of the carriage was empty.

"Cut, it's not this one...... We're going to reinforce the team closest to here......" said one of the leading squad leaders.

"Yes, Captain!"

Alexander's personal cavalry immediately turned around and rushed towards the nearest team!

The carriage was still running, and the pursuit of the Macedonian army did not relax in the slightest.

Soon, a second, third, and fourth carriages were caught up and then destroyed, and without exception, there was no trace of any human presence inside these carriages.

"If it goes on like this, sooner or later it will catch up......" Qin Zhongyu looked out the window and found that more and more carriages were destroyed by Alexander's personal guard cavalry, and his heart became more and more worried.

"It's okay, it's enough to delay the time...... Ying Zheng said calmly.
