Chapter 736: Long-range strike

The long ditch with a width of about several meters is impossible for ordinary soldiers to jump over, and if you build a simple bridge, it is not only inconvenient to move, but also it is wooden, and once the Qin army attacks, it will become an incendiary product.

After thinking about it for a while, Huang Zu said decisively: "There is no good way, but to fill in the soil and refill the long ditch into flat land." ”

There are 900,000 coalition troops, and the manpower is so large, moving up and down, not to mention a long ditch, even a lake can fill it up for you.

After thinking about it, Han Zhou and Huangfu Ye also nodded, and the former said: "At present, although it takes some time and effort, this is the safest. ”

Huang Zu said: "Let's do it, in addition, order the fourth formation of soldiers to immediately cut down trees and make cloud ladders." ”

On his side, he was ready to suspend the war and deal with the transportation problem first, and the Qin army was also discussing this.

At the place of discussion, Goldman Sachs took the lead and said: "Su Shuai, after today's battle, the last general thinks that Huang Zu will definitely deal with the problem of Changgou, and we should now go and refill the oil and oil." ”

"There's no need, save some use, the war is still going on." Su Yi said: "Huang Zu is not a fool, he will not rush again, so it is useless to put fire oil now, and he will definitely fill the long ditch." ”

"So, what does Su Shuai mean?" Goldman Sachs asked tentatively.

Su Yi said: "Do you know what distance was set when you dug this long ditch?" It was just the distance of my Qin army's arrow array, and the opponent's arrow shot couldn't reach us at all. ”

This is a typical example of attacking one's own strengths and attacking one's shortcomings.

When the generals heard this, they all subconsciously glanced at each other.

Su Yi continued: "This ditch is definitely impossible to stop the coalition forces, but in terms of the role of this ditch, we can annihilate the enemy army to the maximum......"

Both sides redeployed, one night without a word, the next day.

The coalition forces arrived outside the pass again, but this time, Huang Zuke did not give the order to attack, but sent thousands of soldiers, carrying shovels, to carry out the earth-filling fortifications.

But when these people had just come to the ditch, before they could start moving, the city was closed, and several rows of crossbowmen had finished arraying, and they had drawn arrows from their backs.

"Arrow Array Preparationβ€”"

The sound of armor rubbing was instantly connected, and all the soldiers moved in unison.

Su Yi waved his right hand.

"Shoot the arrowsβ€”"

An order, a buzz, sharp arrows left the string at the same time, shot out, and instantly formed a black cloud, dense black spots, gathered together, from the city pass quickly swept up, overwhelming, from top to bottom, fiercely covered to the ground!

That's too fast! It's too big!

Plop puff plop!

The sound of arrows entering the flesh sounded instantly, mixed with one after another miserable howls.

Countless coalition soldiers were shot to the ground, and in an instant, the ground was full of diagonally inserted eagles, and there was no place for people to stand.

Under the shroud of arrows, there were thousands of soldiers who were ready to fill the earth, and few survived.

Seeing this scene, all the coalition generals in the rear were dumbfounded.

The deputy general of the Spirit Army couldn't help but swallow his saliva, and said with wide eyes: "Huang Shuai...... This distance ......."

"The Qin army's arrow array, standing alone in the world, is not in vain." Huang Zu's face was gloomy and he said: "This distance, for the Qin army, is within one arrow, but for us, it is impossible to launch a return shot." ”

"That, that ......" The lieutenant general wanted to say something, but Huang Zu had already waved his hand: "Heavy shield hand!" ”

"No!" Some generals immediately responded.

Subsequently, a large number of soldiers, carrying heavy shields on top of each other, marched neatly and step by step towards the edge of the long ditch.

Seeing this, the adjutant general couldn't help but say: "Huang Shuai, if it is supplemented by a heavy shield, the speed of the soldiers filling the soil will have to be completely slowed down, how long will it take." ”

"What's the solution?" Huang Zu glanced at him angrily.

And with the heavy shield hands of the coalition army in battle, they lined up near the long ditch to form a tight shield array, and the Qin army did not easily release arrows.

Immediately afterward, a large group of ordinary soldiers began to rush forward, ready to pick up shovels and fill in the earth again.

At the head of the city, Su Yi was not in a hurry: "Break the army crossbow!" ”

With his order, the crossbowmen retreated, and one after another crossbow beds were exposed, lined up in the city, and other soldiers were methodically and quickly loaded with thick crossbow arrows, and then pulled the crossbow beds apart together.

The sound of mechanical clattering was linked.

These crossbow beds do not contain many arrows, but there are only three of them each, but these three crossbow arrows, each of which is the thickness of an arm, and are long and pointed, look extremely intimidating.

Such three crossbow arrows require a great explosive power of the crossbow bed, so when they are opened, they are pulled apart by a number of soldiers and use the strength of milk.

When everything was ready, the coalition forces also began to move, Su Yi did not hesitate, directly waved his right hand, and gave a decisive order again: "Release!" ”

"Crossbow-"

The command flag waved violently, and the generals of the various departments shouted.

The soldier in charge of the crossbow bed immediately cut the thick rope with a single sword.

Tension force, instant rebound.

Airplanes! Airplanes!

Tearing the air, each crossbow bed, three arrows fired at once, thick and long, extremely sharp large crossbow arrows, hanging from the head of the city, with a devastating momentum, violently pierced into the coalition shield array.

The rumbling sound of impact sounded one after another, and the miserable howls were even more connected.

The thick crossbow bolt hit the heavy shield, with that kind of powerful shooting force, how could the shield hand withstand it, and the person in front didn't even react, and was directly knocked out.

In a corner of the battlefield, the heavy shield flew wildly, smashing into the crowd, and three thick arrows were castrated after breaking through the shield array, almost piercing a vertical line.

This is not at all a human stop, nor is it a little chaos at all, but a wide range of casualties.

A crossbow bed has three broken crossbows, and the Qin army has six and eighteen thick arrows, which come in a salvo, and the scene can be imagined.

In the chaos, the surviving coalition soldiers dared to approach and began to scream and flee.

The soil in the long ditch has only been filled in a few times, and there have been such heavy casualties.

The generals of the coalition forces who were watching the battle in the rear had a hard time seeing the extreme.

The deputy general of the Lingjun also subconsciously said: "Huang Shuai, this, this ......"

It's just that before he finished his words, Huang Zu had already said with a cold face: "Keep filling in!" ”

Yes!? The deputy general grinned: "This, Huang Shuai, the bow and crossbow of the Qin army are too terrible, I don't know how many casualties there will be if you fill it like this." ”

"If this ditch is not treated, the casualties will only be greater! Ben Shuai didn't believe it, how many bows and crossbows could he use in the Qin army! "Huang Zu cut the railway, he has no choice, this long ditch has always been a hidden danger.

And the matter of Qin's crossbow is also the reason why Chu State wanted to assassinate Ji Ping.

The crushing of the distance made the coalition army in a completely passive state in the fortifications before the siege, and it was extremely uncomfortable to be beaten.

But just like Su Yi said, although it can frustrate the coalition forces somewhat, it is absolutely impossible to stop them from attacking the city.
