PS. Present the May Day update, don't hurry up to play after reading, remember to vote for the month first. From now on, you can enjoy double monthly passes for the 515 Fan Festival, and you can also take a look at other activities with red envelopes!
More than 10,000 Shence troops were fully armed and rushed straight to the coalition camp.
This coalition army thought that there was no strong enemy nearby, and they were anxious to attack Luoyang, so the large camp was built without any defense, and there was no horse rejection nearby, so it was a mess, just using this place as a temporary station.
And now, when the Shence Army appeared on the horizon, a large number of scouts had rushed into the camp to pay their respects, and the entire camp began to boil.
The various divisions began to hurriedly prepare to meet the enemy.
It is obviously impossible to rely on the camp to defend to the death, because there is no chance to defend at all, and when it comes to this, it seems that there is no other way than to fight to the death with the Shence army.
Wei Chenliang's heart had sunk.
When these divine soldiers descended from the sky, he felt that something was wrong, but he knew that there was no way to retreat at the moment, even if he fled now, not to mention the pursuers behind, even the five army camps that had occupied various heights and key points were difficult to deal with.
There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, and it seems that the only way to survive is to fight a bloody way.
At this time, he didn't have time to boost any morale, so he hastily arranged the troops, expelled these soldiers from the camp like cattle and horses, and then set up their own formations one by one.
In fact, most of the governors present did not have much experience in leading troops, and they were all a little panicked at this time, so Wei Chenliang was a little timid.
This is also a matter of no way, what the Wei family can trust is their own relatives, their choice of talents is not extensive, those who are loyal to the Li family cannot be entrusted with important tasks, and those who are loyal to the other five surnames and seven families do not dare to trust easily. The people of the Kanto region should be careful, this is full of calculations, and the number of people who can be reused is limited, since there are few particularly talented, naturally, they have to select talents from their relatives.
The Wei family is certainly a big family. There are also a lot of talents cultivated, but Webster needs too many talents, and they must be allowed to occupy key positions, which is already stretched.
Originally, they had already prepared, Wei Chenliang and these people. After all, I have never eaten pork, I have always seen pigs walking, and I have also had the experience of being a feudal official. But when something really happens, I don't have such a good bearing.
As far as Wei Chenliang is concerned, what he is most worried about is not so, but what he is worried about is the elite foot soldiers who have already sharpened their knives. Although they were only watching from afar, they forbade it. How could Wei Chenliang not know how powerful these people were.
These people, however, are well-trained and battle-hardened, enough to be ten in one, and these people have defeated many soldiers and horses. It can be described as a hundred battles. These men are armed with the finest weapons, and even have the most impressive repeaters.
And obviously the only way to deal with these people is to get close to them as quickly as possible. Let them fall into a fierce battle, and after all, there are many people on their side, and there are more ants to eat elephants, at least there is a chance to defeat them.
But......
How to get close to it quickly? They didn't have cavalry at all.
That's right, the coalition army has no cavalry at all, these fiefs are all in the south, and the weather in the south is relatively hot, it is difficult to train war horses, although there are horses in the army, they are few and pitiful, and they cannot be organized into effective combat forces at all.
At this time, the coalition forces were still in chaos, and it was difficult to coordinate between the various departments, and if they were given enough time, they might barely be able to look a little bit for them, and now, ...... Apparently there is not enough time.
So they inevitably began to push each other, and even began to scold, and there was slight confusion everywhere, as well as all kinds of scolding.
Wei Chenliang frowned, at this time, the Shence army had already begun to attack, they were like a long snake, lined up, and then slowly pressed towards this side with a bang.
Getting closer......
Wei Chenliang's forehead was already in a cold sweat, he knew very well that the other party would not give him a chance to prepare, and at this time, he had to bite the bullet.
"Fight!" Wei Chenliang roared, and drums began to sound in the camp.
Knock knock knock......
The thunderous drums were like a reminder, and finally overpowered the noisy sounds.
As the drums beat faster and faster, they finally ...... The coalition army has some appearance, these hundreds of thousands of people, scattered within a few miles, each loosely preparing to meet the enemy.
Wei Chenliang knew very well that at this time, he could only set an example, and others could not count on it, if he wanted to boost morale and let everyone use his life, the only way was for the Shenwei Army to set an example.
Among the towns of the Wei family, to be honest, only Wei Chenliang really worried about military training, so the strength of the Shenwei Army can be said to be the strongest among all armies.
At this time, he didn't say anything, Wei Chenliang directly gave the order, and the Shenwei army attacked.
"Kill!" Finally, there was still a powerful general of the Shenwei Army who turned over and got on the horse. This person is the deputy general of the Shenwei Army, surnamed Zhao Mingwei, Zhao Wei is also a veteran, like Fang Jing, he has served as a military attache in the Flying Cavalry Army, but ...... The fate of the two was completely different, Fang Jing became the governor of the Shence Army, while Zhao Wei had heard of his bravery for a long time because Wei Chenliang went to Shenwei Town, so he asked him from Empress Wei and took him to the Shenwei Army for training.
To a certain extent, Fang Jing and Zhao Wei's training method can be said to be from the same school, and both sides inherit the system of the Flying Cavalry Army, although they have also been modified, but the essence is not different.
But...... Obviously, training is not only about methods, but also about resources.
Different resources, the trained soldiers are completely different.
The Shence Army is built with all its might, and has the best logistics system in the world, and because of this, it can withstand the most demanding training.
But what about the Divine Army? To put it mildly, the vast majority of people in this era only have two meals a day, morning and evening, and if both meals are white rice, it is good, and the Shenwei Army is like this, although it is barely supported, but you expect a group of guys who only have two meals a day to learn to practice to the death like the Shence Army every day, but I am afraid that it will not take half a month. You have to lie down eighty percent of the soldiers.
Not to mention, the Shence Army has the most sophisticated equipment, and at the same time, it has trained a group of middle- and lower-level military attaches as the backbone, and each of them has extremely rich combat experience.
Zhao Wei seemed a little lacking in confidence, but at this time. But he still turned over and got on the horse and shouted: "Prepare to ......"
Finally, there was still residual power, and Zhao Wei gave an order, and countless military horses began to assemble towards him.
At this time, the Shence army on the opposite side was getting closer and closer......
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………
"Kill!" When the Shence Army was getting closer and closer, Zhao Wei raised the long knife in his hand high, and countless Shenwei troops like Hong Feng rushed towards the Shence Army.
At this point today, in fact, this more elite Shenwei army is more clear. What they are facing is a certain death, and if they want to live, they can only live and die with the gods.
Zhao Wei usually governs the army very strictly, so the Shenwei army is still the same.
Countless people scrambled to raise their swords and rushed towards the Divine Army.
Their wishful thinking was simple, to set an example for themselves, and then to boost the morale of the other ministries. In the end, everyone simply rushed to kill together, but anyone who could hit the Shence army hard. There is a chance to escape.
Whoa......
The Divine Army suddenly stopped advancing.
Everyone looked ahead, and then everyone raised their repeater in their hands.
The repeater has been widely used in Qin Shaoyou's army, which is of course thanks to the large-scale production of the repeater, and with the passage of time, the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in the production has become more and more skilled. And because of large-scale production, some processes and manufacturing processes have also been improved on a large scale.
Now the daily output has been as high as hundreds of pieces a day, in addition, there is also the production of crossbow arrows. It is also on the right track, which is enough to support the consumption of training and operations.
For this reason, the soldier holding the crossbow also has a special belt, which is tied to the body, and there are small holes in the belt to load the crossbow arrows, so that the short crossbow arrows are more convenient to carry, and there are as many as thirty crossbow arrows carried by each person in the Shence army.
A pair of crossbows have been raised, they are too familiar with the crossbows in their hands, with the extensive equipment of the crossbows, and when fighting, the dependence on the bow and crossbow is getting higher and higher, so the practice of the bow and crossbow is also more and more, at this moment, everyone here raised the repeater, it is indescribably familiar.
People from afar have begun to get closer, and even many people can already vaguely see each other's faces.
Almost all of them reflexively realize that the other side has entered their effective range.
Merely...... They were still holding their repeaters steadily, not moving.
When the order to shoot was given, they pressed the bracket without hesitation.
Sneer......
Countless sounds of breaking the air were heard.
Immediately after, the locusts that rained down shot out.
After that, the faces in front of them began to twist from anger to anger, and many fell to the ground as if they were harvesting wheat.
It doesn't take much time to get a salvo from the second and third rounds.
Countless arrows never stopped, suddenly obscuring the vision in front of them.
At this time, the Shenwei army began to suffer a large number of casualties, and they had long heard of this legendary repeater, and even ...... The Shenwei Army, which is not far from Luoyang, is also interested in repeating crossbows, and Wei Chenliang even tried his best to get more than a dozen repeaters from various channels, but ...... The repeater was of no use to him, because he did not have enough means to supply the bolts needed for the repeater.
The crossbow arrows must be produced in the workshop of the Shence Army, because the crossbow is fired, so the accuracy of the crossbow arrows is extremely high, otherwise it is very easy to 'get stuck', and once stuck, the repeater will become a waste.
Wei Chenliang has not tried to produce this kind of crossbow arrows, but this kind of accuracy needs are not bad, but he can't help but be staggered, on the one hand, the cost is too great, it is by no means what he can afford, after all, the craftsmen he recruited may produce more than a dozen crossbow arrows in order to get a qualified crossbow arrow, and special inspectors are needed, this cost is beyond his bearing, and on the other hand, it is still a cost problem, even if you can produce on a small scale, and the cost of small-scale production is even more expensive, If you want to reduce this cost, the only way is to mass production, but he soon found that if you want to mass production, the cost is even higher, and this crossbow arrow alone requires tens of millions of dollars of investment a year, which is by no means something that he can afford as a governor, but I am afraid that even the imperial court will not be able to bear this astronomical amount.
But when the Shenwei Army really saw the power of the repeater, it realized that this high cost was worth it to some extent, this kind of repeater with great lethality and extremely fast rate of fire was under the group fire, almost leaving no dead ends in all directions, and one by one people fell, not to mention the Shenwei Army, I am afraid that even if it is a flying horse, I am afraid that it will be difficult to get closer.
Wei Chenliang's forehead was already in a cold sweat, he was watching the battle in the rear, seeing that his Shenwei army was so consumed, his heart was bleeding, he gritted his teeth, and couldn't help shouting angrily: "If it goes on like this, I am afraid that the whole army will be wiped out, and it will be difficult to get close to the thief army...... Don't worry, you see, this Shence army is not without loopholes to drill, their two wings, obviously there are omissions, if at this time, the various departments take advantage of this opportunity to rush to kill the past, we have a lot of people, we are ten times the other party, what are you afraid of, don't be afraid, ...... Command all the ministries to march quickly and destroy the thieves...... Only today, otherwise ......"
Halfway through his words, someone came in a hurry and said with a crying voice: "Governor, the Jingzhou army has withdrawn ......."
Withdrawn......
Wei Chenliang shuddered, and then he really found that on his flank, the governor of the Jingzhou army, that is, his cousin, had actually panicked like a lost dog, and began to leave in another direction with his subordinates.
He...... How could he be like this, did he think that he could run away?
Wei Chenliang gritted his teeth, he never imagined that he was desperate in front and didn't ask them to be pioneers, but these guys didn't even want to press the formation, and when they saw that the big thing was not good, they actually wanted to take it as the best policy.
Stupid...... It's stupid.
