One thousand one hundred twenty-four It's witchcraft, isn't it?
A transformed army, when they have suffered huge losses, they can still grit their teeth and persist in fighting bloodily until the last man.
There will be a retreat, but there will be no collapse.
And most of the old armies, as long as the losses in battle reached twenty or thirty percent, it would trigger a chain reaction, causing the army to collapse, and Sun Wu could not recover it after his death.
The whole army was annihilated because it was surrounded, there was nowhere to escape, and it was definitely not that it persisted in fighting to the last man in the face of adversity.
The Qin army may not have reached that level at the moment, and the speed of transformation is not so fast, but when it comes to fighting, there is no confusion and panic in the eyes of the Qin soldiers, and they begin to have a vague concept, and a faint voice tells them why they are fighting.
Not for military salaries, not for food, not for the slaughter and looting of cities after the war, but for something else.
They don't really know it for the time being, but they just feel that way.
We must move forward, we must win, we must not break up, we must not run away.
Strict military discipline and education are slowly shaping the will of a national army.
In the long night on the eve of the transformation, the Qin army could also find that faint ray of light and advance for the front.
Right now, under Luomeng Pass, the Qin army, which has a well-groomed army, is eyeing Luomeng Pass.
The Banshu army on Seki Castle trembled.
Yang Yong stood on the city tower and watched the movements of the Qin army from afar.
"What are they pushing out? Is it artillery? ”
The generals next to him also looked at it.
"It seems to be artillery, and it doesn't really look real, but it seems to be big."
"Big?"
Yang Yong looked at the artillery on his city tower: "Is it bigger than our artillery?" Put it that far? It's got to be two miles away, right? Can they hit us in two miles? Isn't this a fool's dream? ”
The ministry seems to agree.
"My subordinates haven't seen an artillery that can hit Erlidi, so it's just a bluff, but general, our morale is not high, and we urgently need a victory to save morale, so it's better to let my subordinates take a cavalry to rush out?"
Listening to the general's invitation to fight, Yang Yong shook his head.
"No, in this situation, my task is to defend Luomeng Pass, we have suffered a lot of losses, and there can be no more losses, Luomeng Pass City is tall and deep, and a husband is a pass that is not open, as long as we don't retreat, there is no way for the officials and soldiers to take us, no matter how many they come!"
After hearing this, the general's face was full of concern.
"General, you said, if we guard other checkpoints with heavy troops at the beginning and refuse to fight, will we be able to drag the officers and soldiers until the food is exhausted and retreat?"
Yang Yong was stunned for a moment and pondered for a while.
"Don't say it again, don't think about what has happened, what can you do? Those bastards have ruined our family! Back then, even the Mongols couldn't take our Banzhou, and now they have been forced to this point by the official army! ”
Yang Yong was also very sad and angry, he did not support the three-way attack, but he couldn't refute Yang Yinglong's decision, and as a result, the news of the defeat of the three roads came, and it was Yang Yinglong who fainted, and he was the one who wiped his butt in the fire.
How did they end up in such a situation?
"Pass the order, hold on, who dares to go out and fight, behead!"
Yang Yong issued strict military orders, which are beyond doubt.
I have to say that his approach is very correct, and if it is for other armies, it is very difficult to take this Luomeng Pass without any special skills.
In fact, An Jiangchen has a way to take down the Luomeng Pass, but Qi Dayong seems to be very confident in himself, so he also wants to see how confident Qi Dayong is, where does his confidence come from, and he also wants to know how powerful the huge artillery is.
The gunners of the Qin army skillfully operated the huge cannons, and one by one they erected flags to indicate that they could be ignited and fired after processing, and when they were all loaded, the artillery team officer issued an order to fire and adjust the firing position in turn.
This is not good for the Hongyi cannon, the movement is too large, the recoil is too large, and the firing position must be readjusted after each launch, and the rate of fire cannot be raised.
However, if the rate of fire of this giant cannon is increased, it is estimated that it will be terrifying, right?
The Qin gunners calmly made the final setup, then lit the torches, squatted down, covered their ears, and looked ahead.
The gunner lit the fuse and crouched down, covering his ears.
The Qin army's large array was some distance from these artillery, and their faces did not change, and someone told An Jiangchen and Song Chengen to plug their ears or send someone to appease them, otherwise it would be easy to frighten the horses.
An Jiangchen and Song Chengen were still a little unimpressed, but since it was a military order, they still did it, so that the whole army could be psychologically prepared, and the voice would be very loud.
They looked at the cannon with great concern.
In the next moment, they watched the huge body of the cannon shake violently, and the muzzle of the cannon spewed out huge smoke and fire, and after a loud sound like thunder, the ground shook a little, and an iron bullet wrapped in thick smoke streaked across the sky and bombarded towards Luomengguan.
The sound was constant, the Qin army had long been used to it, and their faces still did not change, and a few war horses were slightly restless, and they were appeased by the cavalry, and they were all very skilled.
The An's native soldiers and the Song's native soldiers were very different, many people were startled, covering their ears with frightened faces, and a few war horses did not block their ears, and they were so frightened that they neighed in the formation, and there was a little chaos in the formation.
An Jiangchen and Song Chengen's eyes kept chasing the iron bullet and flew to the direction of Luomeng Pass, and they saw that the iron bullet flew in the direction of Luomeng Pass......
Then it smashed on the Luomeng Pass, as if it directly hit the city gate tower on the city, and a cloud of smoke exploded on the city wall, and what Dingxi splashed up, and you could see that someone seemed to be smashed and flew up, and there was a fall under the city tower.
Beat...... Hit?
Just right?
This...... It's hex, right?
This thought suddenly occurred to both of them.
In their opinion, if it weren't for witchcraft, how could they hit so far and so accurately?
Did the Qin army already have such a terrible weapon?
That...... Isn't that invincible?
They looked at Qi Dayong with a look of shock and a slight panic, but they saw Qi Dayong with a look of surprise.
"Hey, hey! Hit the first shot? Good! Good! Very good! Come! Give me a reward! That artillery crew, each person will be rewarded with ten taels of silver! ”
"Yes!"
The lucky artillery crew was rewarded with ten taels of silver each, which was more than three months' monthly salary, as a reward for a good start, and they didn't need to make major adjustments, just fine-tune back to the original combat position and design angle, which was really lucky.
An Jiangchen and Song Chengen judged from Qi Dayong's tone that this was probably the result of good luck, not inevitable.
They breathed a sigh of relief.
But then they realized that they shouldn't let go.
Because even if you're lucky, this cannon really exists.
Then, the second cannon fired, missed, and smashed directly into the hill on the far left side of the city wall, with little great damage.
To their chagrin, they adjusted the orientation and angle of the artillery.
This was followed by the third, fourth, and fifth......
