Chen Rui guarded the middle formation, a reasonable but slightly surprising decision, of course, surprised by his relationship with the King of Qin, after all, the army led by his great victory over the Liang army was the Qin army.

However, the war was imminent, and no one would bother with such an inconsequential issue, and they were ordered to reorganize their troops and horses.

Chen Rui will not have any opinions, after all, the middle formation is the safest position, the closest to the main general, he is still inexperienced, and he can observe and learn.

The camp here is still based on the battalion, but it is obvious that this level of array battle is not based on the battalion, but on the troops.

Fortunately, they have been prepared and practiced for a long time, and now the generals will not be panicked and disorderly when they reorganize their troops and horses.

Because of this, the soldiers left to Chen Rui's command were only the 1,000 personal soldiers.

In less than half an hour, nearly 300,000 troops lined up in a huge open space outside the camp, and the scale of the army, the majesty of the army, and the momentum of the wind and clouds made Chen Rui, who was next to the general platform set up by the Chinese military chariot, surging and enthusiastic.

If you can command an army of this size like an arm in this life, you will have no regrets!

But Chen Rui knew very well that it was impossible for him to do it now, and the slightest mistake in it was very likely to cause chaos in the formation, which would then lead to the rout of the army, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Let's go."

The large array moved forward, and the pace of nearly 300,000 soldiers made the earth tremble, hitting the heart, and the dust raised behind it was like a huge sandstorm.

Soon after, the two armies looked at each other from a distance, and the soldiers of both soldiers shouted to strengthen the army.

"Whew, whew, whew......"

"Bell!"

Until the Chu army stopped advancing, the front army held the shield and placed the iron shield on the ground to form a shield wall, and the sound of shouting stopped.

The Wei army also stopped five hundred meters away from the Chu army, don't get me wrong, the two armies are making the final preparations before rushing into battle, checking the armor equipment and formation, and the bow and crossbow are not fired, but it is not a confrontation in order to let the generals come out of the battle to challenge, with the intention of making meritorious contributions by single-handedly killing the generals, and then hitting the enemy's morale and winning the victory. It is even more unlikely that the commanders of the two armies will come forward to say hello and reminisce about the past, this is a war, and it is not a child's play that can decide the outcome with individual bravery.

Taking advantage of this gap, Chen Rui can also take a good look at the world-famous and terrifying one of the most powerful armies of today, the Ironclad Army.

The foot soldiers are tall and mighty, wearing black heavy armor, the helmet is shaped like a phoenix wing helmet, wearing a spine, with an angle of attack before and after, on the left and right sides of the bowl-shaped helmet, connected with a composite shape of leather and armor, the lower edge hangs straight down the neck, protecting the back of the head and neck of the human body, and the cheek guards on both sides are connected together, and the face is also shrouded in the helmet, only the eyes are exposed.

With a long sword at the waist, a spear on his body, a crossbow in his hand, and a cross-arrow bag, from the range to the process, coupled with the armor of absolute protection, it can be said that he is armed to the teeth.

The few cavalrymen in the Iron Armor Army had the same armor as the foot soldiers, but there were no bows and crossbows, only spears and swords, but their horses were also covered with heavy armor, like steel beasts.

Seeing such an army standing in front of the Wei army's array, Chen Rui's heart couldn't help sinking, he remembered a sentence, 'It's better to be famous than to meet, and meeting is better than being famous', I heard how strong this army is, and he thinks it's just like that, but after seeing it with his own eyes, he really felt their strength and fear.

If nothing else, such an army like a steel monster will make the enemy fearful for three points when it fights there. Those who are not mentally strong may be directly frightened.

Chen Rui really wanted to see the face of the former sergeant, but he couldn't see it! He had no choice but to look at Qin Zihao to see what he looked like and how he felt when facing this army.

All right! He couldn't see it, because his father-in-law's expression was as usual, and his face was expressionless, so that people couldn't see what was going on in his heart.

However, this made him sure in his heart that his father-in-law had fought against Wei several times, and there must be a way to deal with it, and the strength of the Qin army was obvious to all. With Kuang Zheng's long sword pointing and shouting "attack", the big war began.

"Knock, knock, knock......"

The sonorous and powerful war drums sounded, like a knock on people's hearts one by one, making people's hearts tremble, and the timid people were probably already frightened, just like Zhou Quan, who was riding a war horse and followed Chen Rui on the battlefield for the first time, his face turned pale for a while, and he looked crumbling, which made Chen Rui a little worried, afraid that he would fall off the horse, and gave Zhang Ning a look and asked him to take care of him more.

Zhang Ning received the child's signal, glanced at Zhou Quan, and nodded knowingly.

After the Wei army's array approached more than half a mile, that is, more than two hundred meters, Peng Ai raised the spear in his hand forward and shouted: "Bow and arrow array, release arrows." ”

The archers of the Chu army obeyed the order to throw feather arrows upward, and in an instant, the arrows in the sky crossed a beautiful arc in the air, forming a rain of arrows, falling to the Wei army behind the ironclad army, "ding, ding, ding" The sound was endless, many bows and arrows were blocked by the shield of the Wei army, and such a distance could not break the armor, but there were also unlucky Wei soldiers who were shot in the parts without armor, let out a miserable scream, and suffered a lot of injuries.

However, not many people fell, because at this time, they fell down, probably not because of their injuries and bleeding to death, but because of the stampede of the robe, so at this time, no matter what the injury, do not fall easily.

Only when he is too injured to support him or is unconscious, he will collapse and leave his life to Providence.

Mi Kang, the general of the Wei army, also issued an order to release arrows, and the ironclad army in front skillfully filled crossbow arrows shot towards the Chu army, and the archers behind him also threw upwards, and in an instant the arrows of the two sides converged in the air, and many feathered arrows collided in the air, unable to fall, and many deviated from the direction.

However, there were still a lot of shots into the two armies' formations, causing some casualties, and after a few rounds, the two sides suffered mutual damage, but in general, the casualties of the Chu army were larger, most of them were caused by the crossbow arrows of the ironclad army.

It's not because their crossbow arrows are powerful, but because their distance is closer, the arrows of the Chu army are useless against these steel monsters, and they are shot at the Wei army behind them, compared to the ironclad army that shoots directly at the front of Chu, the distance is longer.

After the crossbow arrows of the ironclad army were shot into the air, the drums of the Wei army became more and more urgent, and the ironclad army pointed at Yin Jun's spear and shouted, "The ironclad cavalry rushed into battle and killed." ”

The Ironclad foot soldiers moved out of the way, allowing the Ironriders behind them to charge forward.

"Kill, hurry, up,"

The speed of the heavy armored iron cavalry continued to increase, although the number was not much, only more than a thousand, but its galloping momentum was no less than that of ten thousand cavalry.
