"Keep your head down!"

With a burst of shouting orders from the tun chief, the people poured the baby to the ground in a hurry, and then, a dense jingle rang out, which was the sound of a rain of arrows falling on the big oar of Wugang's car. Most of them were blocked, and only a few crossed the barrier, sparsely scratched down, or blocked by the swiftly raised shields of the Qin pawns, or pierced into their thick armor, only breaking the skin.

But shuttling between the front and rear lines, the people who transported the supplies were unlucky, they had no armor or armor, and the person in front of the baby was hit by an arrow in the thigh, and when he saw that the blood was not stopping, he screamed.

"Don't scream!"

The little tun chief who escorted them cursed and cursed, but the man did not stop, and screamed even more, and as a result, his throat was cut by a sword......

"Call out before the battle, and those who disturb the hearts of the army will be punished!"

Xiaotun Chang glared fiercely at the group of Shandong people in front of him, and said to a few people who were so frightened that they wanted to turn around and run away: "Those who don't listen to orders, run around, and mess with my formation, die!" ”

Everyone immediately trembled and did not dare to move, and the little tun chief spat on the people who had their throats cut, and asked them to carry them away by the way when they returned to the rear formation, and ordered:

"Pick up the dropped arrows and send them over!"

The baby was silent, looking down to pick up the arrows that had fallen when he fell.

He was originally a small merchant in Suiyang, Dangjun, pushing a cart back and forth between his home and the market every day, although his life was tight, but he was also okay.

It's just that after Qin destroyed Wei, the life of the merchants was not easy, not only did the city tax increase a lot, but the status became more and more inferior, and every time they were forced to do it, they had to be called up first.

This time the imperial court conscripted troops, Suiyang City had to send a thousand Dingfu, to Xianyang to serve a year of military service, the baby was unfortunately long, thousands of miles west to Guanzhong, when gathering in Zheng County, and was assigned to Beidi County.

In his cognition, Beidi County was already the end of heaven and earth, who would have thought that after the summer, they were still driven away, and together with the Qin army in Guanzhong, they went to the far Saibei, where the water was bitter and dry.

Half of the 15,000 people of the Beidi County Army stayed in Huamachi, and most of the remaining people were also placed in Helan Mountain, but the 2,000 of them were unlucky and were required to march with the army, and do some work of carrying arrows, sprinkling iron, thistles, and pushing Wugang chariots during the battle......

It is true that the prince of Fusu is kind-hearted and treats the people well, but the Qin army's laws before the battle are extremely strict, and it is also true, a little thing, is to behead to set an example.

There was a gap between the formations, but it was left to the reserves and heralds, and the people could only walk along the edge, ready to give way.

Another rain of arrows fell, and everyone lowered their heads to hide for a while, and this time someone was shot through the palm of the hand, and they didn't dare to shout.

The arrows of the Huns are mostly bones and stones, as long as they do not hit the vital point, they cannot die, and sometimes some people even deliberately take an arrow. If you don't scream, you can still be sent to the back, although there will be no doctor to treat you for the time being, at least you can stay away from this dangerous front for a while.

Although he is a peddler, he is bold, in this chaotic and noisy battlefield, when carrying arrows, there is still interest to watch, how Qin pawns fight against the enemy.

The Qin soldiers hid behind the chariot called "Wuhan Iron and Steel Car", which was interlocked in pairs, and there was a one-man high shield in front of it to block the Xiongnu arrows, but the crossbowmen of the Qin army could aim and shoot in the gap between the vehicles, and shoot the galloping Huns on their backs......

Even if the Huns were lucky enough to dodge the continuous fire of crossbow arrows and get closer, their horses would not be able to leap past the eight-foot-long spears in front of the Wuhan Iron and Steel cart, but would retreat in fear.

It's a pity that there are only 800 Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles, and they can't completely cover the five-mile front line, where there are no Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles, they have to rely on the flesh and blood of the Qin soldiers, Guan Ying saw that a team of Qin soldiers holding spears were on standby at any time, if the Huns broke through the antler car base, they all walked over, and the spears of 2 zhang and 4 feet were oblique, stopping the advance of the Hun cavalry.

The battle has lasted for two moments, although the Huns are more numerous, but because the Qin army is located in the corner of the two rivers to resist the enemy, the Huns can only attack from the front, several times to attack and shoot, but they can not break through the Qin formation, but they themselves have more casualties.

Another attack by the Huns was repulsed, and the infant was watching intently, but the voice of the little tun chief exploded in his ears:

"Don't look at it, go back quickly, I'm going to send some thistles this time!"

"Yui."

Guan Ying hurriedly ran with the people and the husbands again, each carrying a basket of iron and thistles, this thing has thorns on all sides, extremely sharp, Guan Ying was careless, and his fingers were pierced.

This item was also a sharp weapon against the cavalry, but the time was short, and the Qin army failed to scatter all the goods they carried in front of the battle.

But they have other ways to make up for it.

Along the way, they were loaded in dozens of cars, dragged by oxen and horses, and the bunch of bulky equipment pushed by these people's husbands finally understood what they were after being assembled by craftsmen at the scene.

"It's a flying stone."

Guan Ying muttered secretly, many years ago, when Wei Gongzi was responsible for guarding Suiyang, Suiyang people only had to be over fifteen years old, and they all went to the city to resist the Qin army, and the Qin army commanded tall flying stones, that is, trebuchets stormed the city wall and broke the outer gate of Suiyang.

The trebuchet in front of him was much smaller than the siege heavy weapon that Guan Ying had seen in Suiyang City a few years ago, and its range was only a little farther than that of a bow and arrow, but it was added to the wheel by the ink man, which was more flexible.

Under the order of the Qin soldiers, the people put the iron and thistle terrestris they moved into the wooden basket of the catapult, and more than a dozen people pulled the rope at the same time, and with a burst of shouting, the iron and thistle terrestris weighing dozens of catties were projected out......

Like the seeds sown in the hands of farmers during spring ploughing, dense thistles fly out and reflect the light in the sun.

They were not thrown far, dozens of steps far away, more than ten steps near, sprinkled onto the trampled grass in a mess. This area was originally without thistles, and it was the focus of the Huns' concentrated forces to attack, but then the Huns who came in one after another turned their horses on their backs......

In this way, where there were no Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles, the Huns would not be so easy to break through.

However, the babies who were running around in various departments to transport supplies also noticed that on the entire front line that was five miles long, the Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles were arranged on the left and right sides and in the center, and where there were Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicles, they would not throw thistles......

Before he could think about the reason for the Qin commander's actions, the next time he transported the arrows to the right position, Guan Ying noticed through the gap between the Wugang cars that a few miles away, a large number of Huns were crossing the Dusitu River, where the water was slowing down.

"Hu reinforcements have arrived?"

He couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart, although the people of Kwantung didn't like to be called by the Qin people, but they also knew that if the Qin army was defeated in this battle, they would fall into the hands of the Xiongnu, even if they didn't die, they were afraid that they would become even more miserable slaves, and they would be taken to cold places to graze sheep.

Fortunately, when the men turned back to the rear again, Guan Ying looked across the river and found that a cavalry had appeared there, and was crossing the pontoon bridge built by a thousand people.

As the "Li" character banner stepped onto the pontoon bridge, as the white horse general who walked in the front got closer and closer, the Qin soldiers guarding the east bank all raised their weapons and let out a burst of cheers!

First the Longxi dialect, then the Northland dialect, and finally the Guanzhong dialect, converged into one ......

"General Fly!" (See Chapter 372)

They were shouting: "General Fly! ”

……

"If you can break through the Qin Formation, you will definitely burn all these hateful cars!"

Under the eagle flag, Tou Manshan jumped like thunder.

He understood the Qin people's method of warfare, and whenever he encountered the Huns attacking, he would ride the car outside and swing it, and then use the Qin army's strong bow and crossbow to guard the key places, so that the Huns could not enter lightly.

In the face of this method of warfare, the Xiongnu basically had nothing to do, compared to the sharp Qin crossbows, even if they galloped closer, in the face of the Wu Iron and Steel car and the Qin pawn's spear array, they also hesitated to move forward, and the arrows thrown into it, at most killed and injured some people and archers without armor, and rushed several times, the Qin people did not kill and wound hundreds, but they had lost more than 1,000 soldiers......

The Xiongnu nobles and the ten thousand horsemen were at a loss, and Tou Manshan Yu could only find Ju Wu to inquire.

"Mrs. Ju, what do you think?"

Ju Wu was opposed to Touman giving up attacking Baiyang Mountain and attacking this Qin army instead, his original suggestion was to put a fire under Baiyang Mountain, burn down the Qin people's defensive fortress, and then cause a fire in the mountains and forests, so that the Qin soldiers could be broken!

As a result, before the fire was lit, there was a light rain yesterday, although it stopped for a while, but the ground was wet, which not only extinguished the desire of the Huns to set fire, but also allowed those Qin troops to get rain and last for a few days.

Facing these Qin army bases in front of him, Ju Wu also had only one suggestion: "I'm afraid there is no other way than fire attack." ”

But when it can't compare to Baiyang Mountain, it is difficult for the Xiongnu to attack and shoot arrows closely, let alone calmly set fires, and the Qin people's front is five miles long, and there are rivers on the left and right, so it is easy to extinguish small fires......

"Who would have known that the Qin people could set up car formations everywhere."

Facing the difficult to gnaw on the shell of the king in front of him, Tou Manshan was anxious and angry, and his patience had been exhausted in these days.

Since it is difficult to succeed at the moment, the best choice is to retreat quickly.

Some time ago, Touman led the army to attack and wipe out 3,000 Shangjun chariots, the siege of Baiyang Mountain, and shot and killed 2,000 Qin soldiers, while his own side only lost less than 1,000.

It's a pity that the Qin army's chariots and cavalry, which came and went without a trace, also attacked his herd in the rear, killed a thousand cavalry, slaughtered a thousand herdsmen, and drove or plundered the livestock.

Overall, the Huns have suffered a small loss, and after returning, there will definitely be rumors that he is old, has lost his pasture, and is no longer worthy of making a big single Yu.

But just when Tou Manshan retreated in his heart and asked the Huns to stop attacking and withdraw first, the Qin army's front, which was originally as stable as a rock, began to mess up!

One by one, under the impetus of the people, the Wugang cars began to move forward slowly, and behind them were dense spears......

The Huns had the illusion that they had been attacking for a long time, but they had not been able to shake the mountain, and now they seemed to come to life, staggering, with a mountain full of spear jungles, pressing on themselves!
