Chapter 753: King of Infantry
These 5,000 cavalry is the winning trump card of the coalition army, so of course Wu Han will not send them all, in his opinion, the cavalry is naturally restrained by infantry, so sending 2,000 is enough.
Of the 2,000 cavalry sent by Wu Han, 1,000 were Xiliang cavalry, and 1,000 were Jingzhou cavalry.
Two thousand cavalry rushed towards the Qin army in a row, and its momentum was extremely huge, and even the earth was a war corn.
Gao Shun saw this, a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes, although the trapped camp is heavy infantry, it is not necessarily worse than cavalry in a real fight, but heavy infantry is still infantry after all, and it is not wise to fight hard cavalry.
"Fortunately, there is already a new type of shield, otherwise there would have been a lot of casualties this time."
Gao Shun said secretly in his heart, and then shouted: "Stop the march and prepare to connect the shield." ”
With Gao Shun's order, the soldiers of the trapped camp immediately stopped erecting their shields, and the order was forbidden to such an extent that it was rare in the world.
Gao Shun looked indifferently at the scattered cavalry on the opposite side, waved his sword and pointed directly at the enemy, and said coldly: "One, two, two battalions, spread out, and set up a group of wolves and shield formations." ”
"The will to fall into battle, there is death and no life......"
The two thousand soldiers in the front quickly dispersed while shouting, and there were no two hundred people forming a large group, and then the small mechanism on the shield was activated, and the shield was connected to the left and right to form a huge shield.
The shields equipped by the Qin army are all unified standard shields, only the shield of the trap camp is a special stainless steel strong shield, and the edge of this shield is deliberately placed with a small sturdy mechanism, but it is connected to each other to form an incomparably solid whole.
Ten huge shields were quickly assembled on the battlefield.
After seeing this scene, not only the Jingzhou coalition army, but also the Qin army in the rear were stunned, this is too high-tech, right?
"Damn? Why is it that every time there is a good thing, he has Gao Shun's trap camp? The lord is too partial, no, I want it too. ”
Li Cunxiao said with a jealous face, although he didn't know the specific function of the shield that could be assembled, but it was obviously a good thing at first glance.
Bai Qi glanced at Li Cunxiao and said lightly: "That's an infantry shield, even if it's given to the Flying Tiger Battalion, can you use it?" ”
Li Cunxiao opened his mouth, but he was speechless, who made his Flying Tiger Army a cavalry, and he couldn't use good equipment in front of him, and the feeling was as uncomfortable as being scratched by a cat.
Zhou Yu's eyes were full of amazement, and then he asked Bai Qi: "General, you have long known the power of the new shield formation in the trapping camp, so you are deliberately letting the trapping camp attract firepower in front, so that the 10,000 troops behind can engage the enemy army with minimal casualties?" ”
Bai Qi did not answer directly, but answered the question: "As a general, if you want to successfully defeat the enemy, you must first fully understand yourself, so that you can use every bit of power in your hand just right." ”
Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with thought, and he looked thoughtful, and after a while, he took a deep breath, clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "General Xie, Zhou Yu has been taught." ”
Bai Qi nodded and didn't say much, he was optimistic about Zhou Yu's future, so he would take the initiative to mention him, if Li Cunxiao's elm head asked him, Bai Qi would definitely not bother to deal with it, because even if he said Li Cunxiao, he wouldn't be able to comprehend.
In the coalition camp, Wu Han saw that the army under Gao Shun had assembled a thousand small shields into ten giant shield walls and erected them in place in a short time, and he had a bad feeling in his heart.
"The shield wall composed of two hundred shields should be able to be broken by the impact of the cavalry, right?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Wu Han's eyes, obviously he was not sure in his heart, but the cavalry had already rushed out, so he couldn't come back without encountering the enemy, right?
"Even if it will cause a lot of losses, it is necessary to break the turtle shell of the Qin army."
As soon as he thought of this, Wu Han did not hesitate at all, and shouted decisively: "Charge." ”
Seeing this, Gao Shun shouted: "Javelin preparation, come forward, prepare, throw." ”
Bai Qi had already expected in advance that the coalition forces might send cavalry to deal with the trapped camp, so he asked Gao Shun to bring 3,000 javelins in advance, which really came in handy.
The 1,000 soldiers behind the shield immediately took down the javelins they were carrying when they heard the order, and when the cavalry approached the shield array for fifty meters, a thousand javelins were thrown at the cavalry.
Brush...... Brush...... Brush......
Three rounds of javelin throwing, 3,000 javelins, at least six or seven hundred casualties to the cavalry, for a time the battlefield was full of mourning.
Listening to the screams on the battlefield, Liu Xiu's heart was dripping blood, there were many Xiliang cavalry among them, and the Xiliang cavalry in his hands was one less dead.
"As long as you can get close, with the impact of the cavalry, you will definitely be able to break through the shield formation, and this casualty is completely worth it." Liu Xiu comforted herself so much in her heart.
Liu Xiu miscalculated, if it was an ordinary shield, it would naturally not be able to block the impact of the cavalry, but the shield of the camp was unusual, it was a strong shield with a characteristic of weighing forty catties on each side.
After the two hundred shields formed a whole, it was a steel wall weighing 8,000 catties, and it was both prosperous and lossy, plus the limited force area, and the support of the soldiers behind, how could the light cavalry break it?
Rumble...... Rumble...... Rumble......
The coalition cavalry continued to attack the shield array of the trapped camp, but the result was that the men were knocked on their backs under the shield array, while the shield wall was intact, but the position was slightly rear.
"How is this possible?"
Liu Xiu and Wu Han, as well as the entire coalition army, were all dumbfounded, and they couldn't believe that this was true.
What kind of shield is this? It's too hard, isn't it? Everyone secretly said in their hearts.
"Qin Jun's shield, no, it is all weapons, and the steel used is much stronger than ordinary steel."
Liu Xiu secretly said in his heart, he couldn't help but doubt that the equipment of the Qin army was indeed much more advanced than theirs.
"Could it be that Qin Hao has obtained a new smelting method?"
After a blink of an eye, a hint of clarity flashed in Liu Xiu's eyes, and he said in his heart: "Qin Hao must have received the help of the Mo family or the Gong family, otherwise it would be impossible to create such a sophisticated ordnance, and it seems that I must also have contact with the hundred families." ”
Liu Xiu also knows that cooperating with Baijia is seeking skin with the tiger, but as long as he controls it properly, he can still get benefits, Dong Zhuo and Qin Hao are the best examples.
Just when Liu Xiu was thinking wildly, new changes took place on the battlefield.
After a few rounds of collision, the two thousand cavalry had already fallen under the shield wall, and knowing that they could not break the giant shield, they naturally did not moth to the fire, but wanted to bypass the shield wall.
A hint of mockery flashed in Gao Shun's eyes, and then he shouted: "Form a circle." ”
"Hey...... Hey...... Hey ......"
Two hundred soldiers worked together, and there were huge shields weighing thousands of catties on each side,
