Chapter 916: Great Valley!
The fortress of the Great Valley is not big, it is just built on the mountain, blocked at the mouth of the valley, in the absence of the Ugly Bull artillery, it is difficult for the Qin army to conquer the fortress, but there is the Ugly Bull artillery, and a dozen cannons can collapse the fortress.
East Coast!
After Yang Zhong saw the Qin army landing on the west bank, he immediately issued a second military order!
"General Ben's order, the artillery positions are moved to the west bank, lined up, and the big valley is bombarded, remember, we must blast out a way for Ben General, so that my army can climb the mountain roads on both sides of the valley, don't save the shells, give Ben a hard fight!"
Yang Zhong does not intend to pass through the valley through the big valley, he is not stupid, if the Qin army enters the valley, the Shu army will definitely throw things to smash the Qin army in the valley, then the Qin army will be dead and four disabled in ten, he will blast out a road at the high point on both sides of the valley, and the army will directly kill the high point, and do not give the Shu army a chance to kill and injure the Qin army.
Fortunately, the Qin army has artillery, which can blow up the rocks and open a mountain road from bottom to top.
"The general has an order, the artillery position is moved to the west bank!"
The order was quickly conveyed, and the artillerymen began to push the ugly bull artillery, and some of the officers and men also ran over to help, but when they moved under the west bank, the artillery generals at all levels began to worry.
The reason for the worry is that the west bank is three zhang higher than the river valley, and although the bank is a slope, the 30,000-pound ugly ox artillery can't be pulled up at all, and it's useless in many people, and the ugly ox artillery is really heavy and huge.
Yang Yi, who was in charge of the ten artillery battalions directly under him, rode a war horse to the east bank, and came to Yang Zhong's side and said: "General, the ugly cow-type artillery is too heavy and too big to pull it up at all. ”
Yang Zhong frowned slightly, he didn't expect the ugly bull artillery to have this drawback, and immediately asked, "How long will this process take?" ”
"An hour!" Yang Yi quickly replied.
"It's taking so long!" Yang Zhong was quite displeased, an hour is enough to change a lot, he is worried that the fighter will pass away, and he is even more worried about an accident, if the 400,000 Qin army is defeated here, it will be really a shame.
"Is there no other way but this?" Yang Zhongxin asked unwillingly.
Yang Yi shook his head helplessly and sighed, obviously there was no other way than to disassemble it into parts and pull it up.
"Since there is no other way, then there is no other way to do it, pass the order, and the sword and shield soldiers and crossbowmen will line up at the edge of the big valley to prevent the Shu army from going down the mountain to raid!" Yang Zhong made a decisive decision and decisively issued a military order!
"Yes!" Yang Yi rode his war horse and turned away, quickly conveying Yang Zhong's order.
At the command, 100,000 sword and shield soldiers lined up rows of shield walls at the edge of the big valley at an astonishing speed, and behind each row of shield walls, there stood a row of crossbowmen holding eight-stone crossbows, a shield wall composed of 100,000 sword and shield soldiers and 100,000 crossbowmen, which could be attacked from afar and defended by approach.
The wall of the shield of no solution!
Another 50,000 pikemen assisted the artillerymen in disassembling the Ugly Ox guns and pulling parts to the west bank.
Du Qi on the big valley saw the Qin army arrayed at the edge of the big mountain pass, and instantly guessed the intention of the Qin army, and immediately laughed happily: "Haha, the old man knows the weakness of the Qin army, the new large equipment of the Qin army cannot go ashore, they have to be disassembled into several parts before they can go ashore, and the reason why the Qin army listed the shield wall array is to prevent us from going down the mountain to raid and harass them to assemble large equipment!" ”
"This new type of large-scale equipment is very important to them, it is estimated that it is also the source of the Qin army's self-confidence, if we can destroy their large-scale equipment, they will not be able to break through the big valley, at that time, the Qin army will naturally know the difficulty and retreat!"
When Liu En, the deputy general beside Du Qi, heard this, he felt that it was very reasonable, but he still couldn't help but be a little embarrassed and said: "General, the Qin army's defense is too strict, and our army's morale is greatly damaged now. ”
"The old man already has a plan in his heart, I don't know if it's feasible!" Du Qi chuckled with a slightly sneering expression.
Seeing this, Liu En hurriedly echoed: "The general is really wise, I don't know what the general has in his heart, what is his plan?" ”
Du Qi was very useful when he heard this, and pointed to the edge of the big valley with a smile and said: "You see, the edge of the valley is a steep place, there is no oblique wave, if our army throws stones from above, the boulder falls down, the power of the boulder, which is not blocked by manpower, will be able to easily break through the Qin army's shield wall!" ”
"After breaking the formation, you lead 10,000 troops down the valley, enter the valley, and kill from the valley, not to break the enemy, only to be able to destroy the large equipment of the Qin army, as long as the large equipment is destroyed, this battle is a victory, of course, this is very dangerous, it is very likely that the whole army will be wiped out, I don't know if you are willing to take this risk!"
Speaking of this, Du Qi hid the smile on his face, and his face gradually became serious.
If 10,000 troops rush out of the valley and rush into the Qin army's array, there is a chance that they will be surrounded and suppressed by the Qin army, but as long as the goal is achieved, this casualty is very worth it.
As soon as Liu En heard this, the smile on his face instantly froze, and he couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart, you old bastard, you still think you have some good plan, isn't this asking me to take my brothers to death?
Liu En had to admit that Du Qi's strategy was still reasonable, but the price was to let him die with 10,000 brothers, which made it difficult for him to accept it, and he couldn't help complaining.
"For the sake of Dashu, the last general will go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and die without regrets!" Even if he is unwilling, he Liu En must take this risk, otherwise, I am afraid that in the next second, his head will fall to the ground.
Seeing that Liu En's attitude was still good, Du Qi nodded with satisfaction, "If this battle is won and you return safely, the old man will ask the court for credit!" ”
"Thank you, General!"
Liu En thanked him excitedly on the surface, but began to scold his mother again in his heart.
I'm afraid that I won't be able to receive it.
"General, the last general has a question in his heart, if we do what the general said, we need to move the boulder to the top of the edge mountain, and after doing it, if the Qin army enters the valley, our army will not have a boulder to smash the Qin army in the valley!"
The boulder is the best weapon to kill the enemies in the valley, without it, it is difficult to cause great damage to the enemies in the valley, and it is not unreasonable for Liu En to raise this question.
Of course, he did not raise this question just to remind Du Qi, but also to hope that Du Qi would give up throwing boulders from the edge of the valley, so that he would not have to take his brother to his death.
"Haha!" Du Qi smiled lightly, and said confidently: "It's okay, it's okay, you can rest assured, the old man can guarantee that as long as the Qin army's large equipment is destroyed, the Qin army will not dare to enter the valley, because the Qin army doesn't know how many boulders we have!" ”
