Chapter 141: War
Outside the tent, the soldiers fought non-stop, and inside the tent, they asked and answered lightly.
It seemed that the cavalry dressed in the Qin army was very anxious, and after only two quarters of an hour, they began to tentatively send two or three horsemen forward, saying something like "return to obedience as soon as possible" and other words were as annoying as flies, provoking the patience of the Chu people.
At this time, Long He expressed disdain while observing the other party: "Dirt buns are dirt buns, if they can let the horse run away within two miles, I will screw off my head!" With so many cavalry, there should be at least five miles left for the horses to warm up......"
"People came from Xiayi overnight, so they didn't need to warm up."
"Xiayi? After hundreds of miles over mountains and mountains, don't you prepare camels? Huh, Μ Μ Sure enough! You see that horse is foaming at the mouth, tyrannical creatures, these guys are simply tyrannical creatures! β
Yu Zhou tilted his head: "You will feel sorry for the horses, after this battle, all the war horses will belong to you, okay?" β
"Good! That's what you said! β
"I said it, but I didn't ...... if I said it"
Long He wilted after hearing this, but when he turned his head and saw the tens of thousands of horses ridden by the other party, he quickly recovered his spirits, and his two fat hands kept rubbing back and forth, turning back and forth in circles, and the nail leaves were rattling.
"Zi period, you think of a way, think of a way not to hurt these horses, okay? Tribulus terrestris breaks bones and tendons every time, I want war horses and don't want to eat horse meat......"
"You're asking me to find a way to defeat this group of people and not destroy these horses?"
"That's right!"
"To your sister, will I become a horse and be ridden by you?
People have legs, feet and brains, and no matter how stupid they are, they know that they can't beat them and run.
Brother Yu is leading all the cavalry to attack the city, how can we chase four legs with two legs is a problem, do you still expect to get all the good things? β
After listening to this, the heat in Long He's eyes did not subside, but the expression on his face became more and more disappointed, he also knew that this request was a bit unreliable, but for a person who loves horses and is obsessed, it is really a bit difficult to let go of seeing so many war horses......
While the two were talking, Yan Heng handed over another note, this time, Yu Zhou's brows tightened after reading it, and after a while, he seemed to have figured out something, his expression was relieved, and he sent it to him without waiting for the little fat man to ask: "Hurry up and see, and send it to the military advisor after reading it." β
Long Ji looked at it and was furious: "This is coercion!" This is a robbery while the fire is burning! When they look back, Brother Xiang will definitely give them a good look! β
Yu Zhou laughed at himself: "Anti-Qin? It's really a good hand against Qin, one by one to occupy the righteousness and make small calculations, the princes of the Eighteenth Road don't seem to do anything serious, they have to bite out a Gu king......"
"What are you talking about? What are the Eighteen Princes? β
"It's okay, let's talk about the story of the social drama, the princes in the play like infighting, just like this guy!"
Long He returned the note to Yan Heng, and his anger did not subside much: "What is the origin of this Qin Jia?" How dare you do such a thing? β
Yu Zhou thought for a while, and the impression in his heart gradually became clear, but he didn't tell Long He, just replied casually: "A small character who is not in the stream, don't worry about it, let's take care of the present." β
Looking back, most of the cavalry led by Xiang Ji had entered the city, and the shouting of killing became deeper and deeper, and at the same time, the cavalry that confronted the Chu army outside the city couldn't help it, and after several temptations, they finally let go of the four hooves and let the war horses start galloping.
"Knock, knock, knock......"
The drumbeat of the Chu army finally changed, and the Beiwei battalion was arrayed with swords and shields, and bows and crossbows were aimed at the front, just waiting for the enemy to approach before engagement.
Long He was a little excited, and quickly climbed on the war horse with a spear in one hand and quickly pulled a spear, now in Chu Ying, he is one of the few guys with horses to ride.
It's just that......
Yu Zhou still couldn't muster any momentum, and after waving his hand to order, he slapped the little fat man on the back: "You don't have no war horses, why are you harming my monophon." β
"Whew-"
The groans of the wooden shelves and the cracking of stone bullets silenced the conversation between the two men, and at the same time, there were ten long-standing eight-bull crossbows, thick crossbow arrows and stone bullets roared forward, one drawing a parabola high in the sky, and the other clinging to the ground like a poisonous snake spitting letters.
Seven hundred steps, this is the range limit of the eight-bull crossbow that Yu Zhou is now equipped with, but in order to maximize the power of the arrows, the Beiwei battalion specially put people closer before knocking down the bracket.
The spear-like arrows are worthy of the name of one shot and three swords and arrows, and the last one comes first, and when the stone bullet is still whistling in the air, it has been wrapped in the power of thunder and tearing the enemy formation, and the ten long arrows are like ten fierce beasts entering the flock, leaving the ground in ruins.
In the face of a military formation of tens of thousands of people, no matter how ruthless the giant crossbow is, its power is limited, but this thing obviously exceeded the expectations of the "Qin cavalry", and they were hit head-on just after instigating the war horse, and their momentum slowed down, and many people looked at the horses nailed to the ground in alarm.
If the eight-bull crossbow brought about an accident like a split, then the ensuing catastrophe was even more impactful.
The stone bullet arrived, jumping and running all the way, and even the opportunity for a person to neigh and roar was not left for them, and the flesh and blood body was in this moment, telling their fragility with broken bones and tendons, and what was even more shocking was that the crossbow arrows flew over at most leaving a little space, and the stone bullets smashed down, and a long bloody road was shocking.
There are one and two, they are all hit at an unimagined distance, the charging formation of the "Qin cavalry" gradually began to mess up, no one wants to be the next dead corpse or nailed to the ground and wailing unlucky, there are "smart people" who rely on equestrian skills to be a little more familiar, driving the war horse to move and run left and right, but the whole cavalry team is not at peace.
Seeing this, Yu Zhou felt even more bored, this group of enemies was originally forced to get on the horse, and there was no decisive will to fight and the commander who ordered and forbidden, and the rout should be taken for granted.
It's just that he really couldn't figure out what the other party was trying to do, so he asked: "Check out, who is the leader of the enemy army?" β
"Under the command of the puppet king Wu Guang, he will return to Li."
"Wu Guang? Li Gui? β
"Exactly."
Yu Zhou thought for a long time without any impression, and continued to ask: "How is this person's temperament?" What is the record of the shot? β
When Yan Heng heard this, he immediately put on a coaxing expression, and said in the tone of "Look at Er Nai's insertion and selling the head": "There are four generals under Wu Guang's command, which are Tian Zang of Chen County, Li Gui of Qi County, Deng Shuo of Gongren, and Wu Xu of Yangcheng.
But I heard that Tian Zang has been on bad terms with Wu Guang recently, Deng said, Wu Xu's new people don't have to worry, it's this Li Gui, that's also donkey and eggs, the surface is ......"
The front sounded like a word, and the more he went to the back, the more he didn't hide his disdain, Yu Zhou was about to whip after hearing it, and said: "Don't be arrogant and arrogant, forget what I said before?"
Those who spy on intelligence, there is one thing to say and two to say, don't mix personal subjectivity into it, tell me again, what war experience did this Li Gui have before? β
Yan Heng thought for a while, then replied with a smile: "No, either the war is too small and we haven't found it."
You can rest assured in the sub-period, can I still count in my heart? This kind of guy who has no war experience can serve as a partial general, so it can be seen that Wu Guang's department is just like that, what is there to worry about? β
"This is in the army!"
"Oh, Captain!"
The cavalry was closer, though the speed was not increased to the extreme, although the running was a little crooked, the rear rider pushed the front rider, one wrapped the other, and it was not up to one or two people to stop.
It's just that in the eyes of the Chu army, such a charge is not only no threat, but even full of flaws, no different from being sent to be slashed and killed.
"Throw!"
"Shoot-"
"Shoot ββ! Again"
The strong crossbow of the Chu army was fired, and the overwhelming arrow cloud made Li Gui's pupils constrict, thinking that he had met the elite of the first emperor sweeping the world, he had not finished a thought, the arrows had already fallen and turned into a wail, and the soldiers who fell off their horses were trampled into flesh by the latecomers, and the neighing of the mounts of the horses that lost their front hooves was desperate.
Li Gui never thought that this war, which should not have happened in King Chen's opinion, would fall into a dead end without warning, and there was no room for maneuver, so he could only step forward......
Well, using cavalry to deter the Chu army from the back road without scaring the other party is a mistake by King Chen and King Wu, so who came up with the idea of this idiot named Wuping Junban to be the supervising army? Why did this bastard give the order to attack instead of the main general?
After another turn of thought, he remembered that this person was King Chen's confidant, specially used to control the generals, since Ge Ying's incident, King Chen no longer seemed to trust his old subordinates, and his heart was cold......
What surprised Li Gui did not end, after the Chen Jun knight paid a heavy price to break through the crossbow array, he did not expect that the other party's crossbow arrows were not shot at all.
As the two layers of clouds rose into the air again, this guy who was still somewhat knowledgeable had cold hairs standing up all over his body, his teeth were stumbling, and he hated to spit out a sentence: "Double Arrow Repeater ......!" β
"What kind of double-arrow crossbow is not double-arrowed, the cavalry combat power is better than the foot soldiers, is it difficult to defeat these Jiangdong people?"
Hearing Wu Pingjun's natural tone, Li Gui couldn't hold back any longer, and roared: "Double Arrow Repeater!" That is a sharp weapon that used to be powerful for a while!
You know that cavalry is superior to foot soldiers, are they cavalry? Do you know how many people have to die......"
Wu Ping Junpan still took it for granted: "How can there be immortals in war, King Chen is not raising them in vain, they have to work hard if they should be desperate." β
Li Gui's eyes narrowed: "But King Chen didn't say that he wanted to start a war, let alone let King Wu's subordinates be sent to death!" β
Wu Pingjun's expression became a little calm: "General Li, do you know King Chen, or do I understand King Chen?" β
ββ¦β¦β
While the two men were arguing, a large number of horsemen suddenly lost their horses, and one of them fell to his knees and rolled several times, and neither the man nor the horse could get up.
The follow-up cavalry couldn't avoid it, and rushed forward on its companions, and the unlucky ones on the ground screamed in pain, and the cavalry who jumped over fell again, becoming a stepping stone for latecomers.
Seeing this, Li Gui had no intention of arguing, frowned tightly and looked at the battlefield, and carefully searched for several times, but he didn't find anything wrong, and suddenly suddenly said: "There is a trap!" The Chu army has long been prepared, withdraw! β
"General Li, I am the envoy of the prison army, I said that I am not allowed to withdraw!"
"Fuck you, didn't you see that Lao Tzu's subordinates are going to die!"
Wu Pingjun's eyes were not good: "General Li, you can treat the offensive words as if you didn't hear them, but if you disobey the military order, you will be offending King Chen!" β
Li Gui is not such an assertive guy, he was frightened by others, thinking of the dirty relationship between Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, he didn't dare to argue, he only muttered: "How is this good, what if it is defeated......
"How can you be defeated as a knight and a foot soldier? It's good to rush through this formation, and the general doesn't need to worry about it. β
After speaking, Chen Jun's drum beat became more urgent.
