Chapter 292: Tianshui's Scheme

"Wang Qian, I handed you 20,000 heavy cavalry, and as a result, you suffered a huge loss, and this sin cannot be exempted, but now is the time to use the troops, I will write down this first, and then inform the king of the decision after the battle, you go down to rest and wait for my order!"

Bai Qi treats Wang Jian like his own son, the relationship between Wang Jian and King Qin is not ordinary, and he does have skills, but this battle is indeed a heavy casualty, even if the opponent's weapons cannot be stopped, but failure is failure, there can be no excuse, according to the law of Great Qin, Wang Jian is enough to destroy the three clans.

Fortunately, he is not a pedantic person, if he kills Wang Qian, it is tantamount to self-damage to his strength, so he did not cure the other party's crime for the time being, and will hand it over to the King of Qin to make a decision after the war.

"Thank you for the general's grace not to kill!"

Wang Jian stood up with tears in his eyes and left the camp, he has a firm personality, he has not cried since he joined the army, but this time it doesn't work, it's not that he feels wronged, but he feels powerless, he lost the last time he attacked Tianshui, but that time was not caused by strength, it was an unexpected factor that he lost to Liu Yuetian, who never thought of, but this time, the two sides still lost when they set up a position, and they didn't lose any temper at all, just like a child wrestling with an adult, this is a complete crushing of strength, he was beaten and cried by Liu Yuetian.

"Pass my order, the army will be encamped on the spot, and no rash action is allowed without my order, and the county will be notified in addition, and the rest of the army will be dispatched at any time."

This big war still has to be fought, but the previous plan has completely changed, and it can no longer be easily rushed, so it can only be fought steadily, consumed the other party little by little, or use other ways to find fighters, but this is a war of attrition, and the food brought by Shangjun and himself is only enough for the army for more than two months, if it cannot win during this time, then the Qin army will be in danger.

And Bai Qi learned from Wang Jian that the other party's victory did not only rely on powerful weapons, they had a plan for every step, first using trebuchets and weapons that could make iron bumps lower the speed of the cavalry, which reduced the advantage of the heavy cavalry, and then used the soldiers wearing hard armor as meat shields to block the front, and used the advantage of crossbow arrows to attack themselves, this is the tactic.

But the most important thing is the opponent's weapons.

Bai Qi took an iron short knife that Wang Jian picked up from the battlefield and slashed hard at the iron armor placed on the ground, and the iron armor was suddenly cut open, and the short knife was not damaged at all.

In the past, the Qin army relied on military literacy and hard armor, but now, the opponent's military literacy is not weaker than itself, and the armor is stronger than its own, and the weapon can pierce the soldier's armor, how can this battle be fought? Maybe we can only win by overwhelming numbers.

Bai Qi suddenly had a hint of bad omen in his heart, maybe this battle was the end of his own battle to kill the name of the god.

The news of Hongnong's victory soon spread to Tianshui, Chang'an, Dawu and Luoyang through the Flying Pigeon Legend, and all four parties were paying close attention to Hongnong

The happiest is, of course, Liu Che in Chang'an City, now Liu Yuetian represents himself, if he loses Hongnong in battle, the water will be dangerous that day, and even Luoyang will be difficult to preserve, if these three counties fall into the hands of the Qin army, then he will be left with Chang'an, but he has really become the commander of the light pole.

The strength of the Qin army is recognized as the head of the princes, and now it has been defeated by Liu Yuetian, which is enough to show that my Great Zhou soldiers have reached the strength enough to crush the princes of all parties, and see who will dare to fight the idea of the Great Zhou in the future!

Of course, the letter only stated that this was just the first battle, but after this battle, his side's morale was greatly boosted, and the advantage had tilted towards Liu Yuetian's side.

Of course, Sun Quan and Zu Ti are also very happy, this once again proves their eyesight, and at the same time, they are completely relieved, Liu Yuetian does not need to rescue himself, then he can concentrate on staring at Datang and Dawei, as long as there is movement between these two parties, they will go desperately.

And Shi Le, Chang Yuchun and the others have nothing to be excited about, they have absolute confidence in their lord, although the Qin army is strong, but in their hearts Liu Yuetian is a symbol of invincibility, so the news is just a sigh of relief, but they will soon mention it, because they have already received the news that Gesar of Tibet has mobilized 100,000 troops along the Jinsha River to Tianshui.

"My lord, he guessed right, Daqin and Tibet are really united, everyone, how can we fight this battle?"

Shi Le is now the head of Tianshui County, Chang Yuchun and Gao Huan assisted him, but the three of them each hold an army, Shi Le is a cavalry, Chang Yuchun is an infantry, and Gao Huan is now mainly responsible for the research and development of various weapons of trebuchet, and even the construction of the steam engine is also entrusted to him, in addition, Liu Yuetian is ready to start preparing for the construction of the navy, with the navy can go upstream to attack Tibet, this navy is also led by Gao Huan.

"Brother Shi, our Tianshui is now strong and strong, and there is nothing to worry about with just 100,000 Tibetan soldiers, this time it will be like the last time, we will kill as many as we came!"

Chang Yuchun said confidently without care.

"That's right, the lord just won a big victory, we can't fall behind, we not only have to win this battle, but also fight beautifully!"

Gao Huan echoed.

"My lord said that the future war will not only depend on troops, but also on what...... What advanced technology, Gao Huan, how are you doing there now? ”

Schler asked.

"Haha, that's great! In more than two months, those craftsmen have already designed the third ...... The third-generation steam engine, this kind of machine is too powerful, it is no longer a problem to push a big ship weighing 10,000 catties, in addition, Meng Sheng and Yin Long are indeed talents, they also used this steam engine on the trebuchet, and they actually threw a big stone weighing five or six hundred catties to a distance of more than a mile, it is unimaginable. ”

Gao Huan said excitedly.

He was still a little unhappy with Liu Yuetian's arrangement of his own work, but more than two months have passed, and he has realized how important these so-called technologies are.

The latest generation of steam engines has shown much more power than man, and even if his imagination is still very limited, he can project a stone weighing hundreds of pounds to a distance of a mile, which if used in war, it will definitely beat the opponent to despair.

Of course, the third-generation steam engine has only just been successfully tested and cannot be applied to practice, but the process should not be too long.
