Chapter 223: Run for Your Life!

"Hahaha, win!"

Wei Bao saw from a distance that his army had rushed to the position of the enemy's formation at a distance of four hundred paces, and a smile bloomed on his face.

At this distance, even if there is a shield array in the place to resist.

But in the face of the rush of 100,000 troops, it is like using a mantis arm as a car, and it is of no use at all.

Even if you don't use a sword, you can trample on the Qin army's seemingly bright pig iron shield to pieces.

Zhang Liang saw that the other party used a shield that looked bright, but was actually made of pig iron, and his brows furrowed even deeper.

The bronze smelting technology of the Qin State is extremely high!

In that year, the First Emperor relied on sturdy bronze weapons to conquer Korea by smelting pig iron.

Now the sturdy bronze shield is not used, and the shield made of pig iron is used instead, which makes people a little confused.

With Zhang Liang's knowledge, it is not that he does not know that there is a kind of stainless steel in the Western Regions that is extremely hard.

The scimitars used by the high-ranking generals of the Xiongnu were made of stainless steel in the Western Regions.

However, the steel smelting technology is extremely difficult, otherwise it is impossible for the Xiongnu to be qualified to wear it only by high-ranking generals.

What's more, in Qin Jun's hand, it is two meters high, like a shield of a wall.

How much steel does it take to build?

Even if Qin unified the six kingdoms, he would not be so rich that a shield made of stainless steel would form a steel wall!

Even if the Qin State could take out the money, the Western Regions would not have such a large output supply.

If Zhang Liang knew that there was a smelter in Shangjun that covered a vast area and was far ahead of this era, he would not think so.

Moreover, even with Zhang Liang's wisdom, he misguessed the purpose of forming a wall of shields to block the camp behind.

The appearance of the shield array was not to stop the Wei army's attack at all.

The main purpose is to prevent splashing at any time during the blasting, so as not to hurt one's own people.

For while the shield was raised, a long trumpet sounded on the mountain.

Heavily armed border soldiers rushed out of the tents.

According to many drills, they ran to the designated position in an orderly manner, and there was no situation at all in which the generals could not find the soldiers and the soldiers could not find the leading generals.

Wei Jun launched the final sprint in excitement.

No one noticed that under the dirt beneath their feet was a piece of hollow steel pipe made of splice of pieces.

Inside the light pipe, the ignited lead is burning.

Fusu became a specialized demolition team, and naturally carried out armed training according to regular troops.

In a big battle dominated by formations, explosives packs are an invincible weapon of destruction.

But there are drawbacks.

That is, it is easy to attract the attention of the other party after lighting the lead, and when the dense crowd runs by, even if it will not be trampled on, I am afraid that the lead will be trampled to pieces.

After discussion and research, the workshop specially smelted hollow steel pipes that could be spliced for the blasting army.

In wartime, the steel pipe is buried in the ground, and the person in charge of lighting the fire can hide from the battle array, and who will notice when the two armies face each other.

Boom Boom!

A continuous loud bang rang out four hundred paces away.

Suddenly, a ball of flames rose, and the ground the size of half a football field was surrounded by explosions.

The Wei army, who was next to the explosives bag, was blown to pieces on the spot.

And nearby, covered with crumbling iron filings.

In the blink of an eye, a large area of the charging Wei army fell to the ground amid screams.

The continuous explosions filled the Wei army's camp with smoke and dust, and even the view was blocked.

One hundred thousand Wei troops, in the successive explosions, were cut in half.

Rushing through the explosion area, he was stunned by the sudden serial loud noise behind him.

Twisting his stiff neck, all he saw was smoke and dust.

For a moment, they were dumbfounded.

Don't know if you should keep charging or should you retreat?

If you continue to charge, without the support of the rear army, you will be sent to death if you run up.

But if you retreat, the smoke and dust behind you are unclear, who dares to break in!

The tens of thousands of horses rushing in front were in a dilemma for a while.

Even, he didn't notice that the shield of the Qin army was withdrawn three hundred steps away, revealing the two thousand crossbowmen behind him.

A Wei soldier twisted his neck to look at the smoke and dust behind him, and asked with difficulty, "Junhou, what should we do?" ”

"We ......"

The marquis blinked, and he didn't know what to do in a panic.

Suddenly, there was a sharp break in the air in his ears, and he hurriedly turned his head to look, and suddenly opened his mouth wide.

There was horror in his wide eyes!

Woohoo!

The rain of arrows fell from the sky, and it became bigger and bigger in the eyes.

The marquis roared in horror: "Not good! ”

The soldier next to him only heard the warning, and did not even know what was happening, and was hit by an arrow in the head the moment he turned his head.

His body was crooked and he fell to the ground.

Woohoo!

The rain of arrows fell from the sky, and there was a scream.

The marquis who gave the warning was also lucky, and immediately bent down after the warning.

One of the soldiers in front of him was hit by four arrows in an instant, and his body fell backwards, blocking the rain of arrows that fell diagonally.

The subordinates around him kept falling, and the corpse was pressed down by the general Hou below, so he was lucky enough to pick up a life.

At the same time, I was horrified.

"The Qin army's strong crossbow is very powerful, but it only shoots one hundred and fifty steps, and here is more than three hundred steps away from the Qin army's crossbowmen!

Moreover, the rain of arrows only fell again after a short pause, as if it didn't need to be reloaded.

10,000 people fired a salvo, I'm afraid there is no such terrifying momentum! ”

The positions of the two sides were swinged, and the front army that had been cut off in the center was wailing under the rain of arrows.

Those who can still stand, raise their shields and flee for their lives in the smoke and dust.

Although the situation in the smoke and dust is unknown, it is better than standing in place and becoming a target.

It's just ten breaths of time, 10,000 soldiers died in front of them, and those who fled escaped, there was no one who could stand as far as the eye could see!

The army, which was blocked by the explosion, stared at the thick smoke and dust in front of them in a daze.

At the edge of the smoke, the wounded and bleeding Wei army could be seen screaming and wailing in a pool of blood.

For a while, a thought flashed through many people's minds: "Heavenly punishment? ”

In their opinion, only heaven can make such a huge noise!

cluck

The soldiers, who had just dodged the splatters of iron filings on the edge, retreated in terror, and made strange sounds of horror in their throats.

When the former army ran away in panic and rushed out of the smoke and dust, the people behind were even more frightened.

If it weren't for the military order, and the fact that they witnessed several escapees being hacked and killed, they would have been eager to turn around and run away!

By the time the smoke and dust slowly dissipated in the majestic wind, there was no one standing in front of them.

Knock knock!

There was a dull sound of horses' hooves.

In the haze, a cavalry rushed out of the smoke and dust.

In the blink of an eye, he rushed to the front, and a cloud of blood splashed with a knife in his hand!

Finally, someone broke down in the center of the horror and couldn't help but yell.

"Ah, run away!"

With this roar, the military spirit of the Wei army was completely dispersed!
