Chapter Twenty-Six: Hama's Death

Peng Yue screamed in horror in exchange for a bunch of resentful looks.

"General, our army only has more than 1,000 archers, if you come out at this time, let's not talk about whether you can shoot the Qin army, I am afraid that with the benefit of the Qin army's strong crossbow, our army's archers will be wiped out if they don't have a face." The corners of Hama's mouth twitched.

"Even if that's the case, we can't sit back and watch the Qin army fill in the traps and barricades, right?" Peng Yue said urgently.

"General, don't be impatient, the Qin army is going to use the benefits of a strong crossbow to bully our army and want to break my camp. However, although the Qin army had more than 30,000 people, there were only 10,000 foot soldiers, and the cavalry dismounted was not an army. but our army is fifty thousand.

Now it is the best policy for our army to block the crossbow arrows of the Qin army first, and wait for the Qin army to clear the barricades for our army. Once the two armies fought, the Qin army's strong crossbow would no longer be of any use, and at that time, our army would occupy all the advantageous places and people, even if it could not annihilate the tens of thousands of Qin troops, it should be able to inflict heavy losses on the Qin army. ”

Hamato is not in a hurry.

"Good! Sir is really clever, and our army will act according to this policy. Peng Yue high-fived and laughed.

Bang Tuo also knows that he is suffering at this moment, he knows very well about the equipment of the 50,000 army, the cowhide shield that can be used to resist the crossbow arrows of the Qin army is less than 500 faces, and the crossbow arrows of the Qin army have always rained down arrows, how many people can this 500 big shields protect?

But if you can't even panic at this time, the main general Peng Yue, then these 50,000 are a patchwork army, and I'm afraid that they will already be in chaos without the Qin army attacking them.

Bang Tuo bowed to Peng Yue and said, "Then I will arrange this." "He's going to look for a shield. This is impossible to rely on Peng Yue. It may be okay for Peng Yue to charge into battle, but Peng Yue is too bad to fight on the march.

"Go ahead, and leave everything to sir." Peng Yue also knows his own affairs.

More than 10,000 Qin soldiers advanced very quickly, and there were no tools to dig and fill the pits, so they directly threw the things in the camp tent and put them on. The most important thing is to remove the broken copper thorns, iron nails and other objects that are densely scattered on the ground.

Hamatuo's army of 50,000 had already shrunk to the back of the camp, and he was almost up the mountain. It's not that I don't want to go up, it's just that this lonely mountain with a height of more than 100 meters really can't accommodate so many people, and the rugged terrain is not conducive to charging when the time comes.

Peng Yue looked at the "shield" that Bang Tuo had made out and almost didn't draw it directly.

"It's... This is what Mr. said about resisting the crossbow arrows of the Qin army? Peng Yue stammered as he pointed to thousands of logs that were the thickness of his arms and even calves, and then tied together with ropes, like simple shields like bamboo rafts.

Hama Tuo smiled bitterly: "General, this thing should be stronger than a cowhide shield. ”

Peng Yue waved his hand wordlessly and said, "Then quickly set up the formation, the Qin army is about to break the camp." ”

Five hundred cowhide shields were placed on the outermost part of the Qin army by Bang Tuo, and then dozens of people with huge "bamboo raft shields" were topped by one, and the top of their heads was covered tightly, Peng Yue gave an order, as if approving a turtle shell of 50,000 troops, slowly approaching outside the camp.

After the crisp sound of "crackling".

The wooden fence outside Peng Yue's camp was directly torn off by the Qin army's rope, and the fence fell, which meant that Peng Yue's camp had completely opened its chest to tens of thousands of Qin soldiers.

Before more than 10,000 Qin army foot soldiers entered the camp, they saw tens of thousands of chaotic troops appearing in the middle of the camp with "bamboo raft shields", slowly moving forward. The more than 10,000 Qin troops were stunned for a moment, and then laughed in unison.

No one thought that in order to resist the crossbow arrows of themselves and others, these rebels would come up with such a seemingly useful but extremely stupid method. Of course, this method is still useful now when the Great Qin Front Army does not have a giant repeating crossbow machine.

It is precisely because these Great Qin soldiers know that this seemingly useful method, if it encounters Great Qin's continuous crossbow machine, then it is completely carrying a lantern into the thatched house and looking for death.

Although more than 10,000 Qin army foot soldiers smiled, they all knew that in the absence of large crossbow machines now, it could not be said that Peng Yue and the others' methods were very useful, but they were only useful.

Qin's crossbow can dominate the world, not only can be thrown.

The reason why the Qin army's strong crossbows were launched by projectile in previous battles was simply because although the Six Kingdoms were weaker than Great Qin at that time, at least the army's armor was very complete.

Projectile can make the bolt fall faster, and with the help of the falling force, it can tear through the armor and armor to kill the enemy.

And most of these rebels in front of them are clothed or even unclothed, even if they shoot flat, with the advantage of the Great Qin's strong crossbow, they can easily tear their clothes and cause more effective killing.

Seeing that the enemy had appeared and entered the range of the strong crossbow, the captain who led the team roared: "Ping! Shoot! ”

The strong crossbow that had been prepared for a long time was suddenly leveled. The sound of "boom" and "jump" triggers was endless, and the crossbow arrows shot out with a small sound of breaking through the air.

More than 10,000 crossbow arrows were like hornets, making a huge screaming sound and rushing straight towards Peng Yue's army.

Peng Yuejun, who was originally wearing a "bamboo raft shield" on his head, was suddenly caught off guard by the sudden change of shooting method of the Qin army.

Although there are more than 500 cowhide shields in front of the front, how can it be all-encompassing, the sound of "aggressiveness" is endless, and the five hundred shields are suddenly filled with small crossbow arrows eight inches long, cute but deadly.

The big shield blocked some of the crossbow arrows, but there were no less than thousands of crossbow arrows that drilled through the gaps, fiercely penetrating through the body, and the screams were endless. Peng Yuejun's originally neat formation suddenly became chaotic.

More than 10,000 foot soldiers shot a wave of crossbow arrows, without stopping, taking advantage of the chaos of tens of thousands of chaotic troops, spread their feet and ran. Some Qin Jun didn't forget to turn around and laugh a few times while running.

What is called an uncle can bear and an aunt cannot be tolerated, Peng Yue finally realized.

Everyone knows that although the Qin army's strong crossbow is good, it can't continue to shoot continuously.

Peng Yue and the others originally planned to use this method to get as close as possible to the Qin army, and took advantage of the gap between the launch of the Qin army's crossbow machine to rush out in one fell swoop, but now they didn't expect that the Qin army, which has always been known for its bravery, would run away after shooting a wave of crossbow arrows, and it seems that the 20,000 cavalry behind them had no intention of making a move.

Seeing that Peng Yue was about to give the order to rush and kill as soon as he threw away the big shield in his hand, Bang Tuo, who had been following him, couldn't care much, and grabbed Peng Yue and said urgently: "The general is angry!" ”

Peng Yue's eyes widened, and he shook off Bang Tuo's hand and said angrily: "The Qin people fled without a fight, such a good opportunity." If you don't chase and kill at this time, when will you wait? ”

"General, the Qin people want to lead our army out of the mountain, if our army really rushes to kill at this time, and when we get to the wilderness, does the general think that we can fight with these tens of thousands of troops to fight more than 30,000 Qin troops? General, my army can't get out of the mountains! ”

"Don't get out of the mountains! Don't go out of the mountain, wait for the Qin army's strong crossbow to be ready, will I wait and wait for the arrow? If the Qin army only used a strong crossbow to shoot us and others, and did not engage our army, then we would just wait to be shot here one by one like the Qin army killing chickens and sheep? Peng Yue said with a pale face.

Hama Tuo's mouth opened a few times, and he said resolutely: "General, the last general is willing to ask the general not to lead the troops out of the mountain." Thinking that Meng Tian had sent reinforcements here, it must have been that Lord Xiangguo had already sent troops, and Meng Tian wanted to besiege and kill the 50,000 troops behind him before fighting with Lord Xiangguo, and he had relieved his worries.

Now, as long as we can hold back these tens of thousands of Qin troops, with Meng Tian's tens of thousands of elite soldiers, they will definitely not be the opponent of the hundreds of thousands of troops of Lord Xiangguo, and if Meng Tian is defeated, then the entire Handan, Hanoi, and Shangdang will be in the pocket of my Zhao State. Please think twice! ”

It can be said that Bang Tuo is worthy of being Li Zuoche's most reassuring adviser staff, although everything he said is speculation, but it really talks about the correct solution, once Zhang Wu Qianliang's 40,000 troops are dragged here, it is almost impossible for Meng Tian to defeat Li Zuoche's 180,000 troops by close to 30,000 infantry and 10,000 cavalry.

If you change to the main general, maybe with the bravery and elite of the Jiuyuan Army, it is possible to fight for a miserable victory, but Li Zuoche is not a bad general. The soldiers are bearing, and they will be in a nest, and the words are rough but not rough.

Although Peng Yue is not very good at leading troops to fight, he knows which is more important and can distinguish between right and wrong.

Bang Tuo's meaning is very clear, he wants to use the lives of these 50,000 people to drag these 40,000 Great Qin soldiers to help Li Zuoche defeat Meng Tian on the battlefield on the other side.

But Peng Yue hesitated, he defected to Zhao Guo for wealth, not for Li Zuoche to sell his life, although Li Zuoche gave him the high position of Zhu Guo, but he helped him to lay down the giant deer, he thought he deserved this position.

Li Zuoche defeated Meng Tian, and all the credit belonged to Li Zuoche, because at that time, he was sure that he would be slowly worn to death by the Qin army if he stayed in this camp. For the sake of an ethereal victory that has nothing to do with him, let's first say that Li Zuoche will win, but he wants to take his own life.

Peng Yue really didn't have such a high consciousness.

"General, rush. What benefit did he get from winning over the brothers? You and I are dead. It's a big deal, we escaped and went to the mainland to fish. ”

The one who spoke was a big thief who followed Peng Yue to join Li Zuoche, and Peng Yue's personal guards were all a group of thieves who had fished with him in the mainland in the past.

"Yes! Boss, run! ”

"The general will take the brethren and kill them."

…… Someone started, and the remaining thieves who ran over with Peng Yue responded one after another.

"Shut up!"

Hama Taku's eyes were suddenly shattered when he heard the words of these thieves, he never thought that these people would say such things at this time. Once Peng Yue, whose original position is not very firm, is shaken, then it doesn't matter if the 50,000 army is buried, and it doesn't matter if he dies.

With this 40,000-strong army on Meng Tian, the balance of the battle between Li Zuoche and Meng Tian was about to tilt immediately.

"You dare to ...... so big"

"Presumptuous!"

Peng Yue interrupted Bang Tuo's words with a loud shout, and slowly glanced at the surrounding rebel army and said, "The general has made up his mind, continue to take fifty steps forward, and the whole army will rush over and kill all these damned Qin people." ”

"Whoa!"

The dozens of guards who followed Peng Yue responded in unison.

"Poof! Peng Yue! Er is a bandit, Lord Xiangguo did not despise you, but gave you a high position, and treated you very kindly, and now this old man is so greedy for life and afraid of death, wolf heart and dog lungs, you will not be good" Bang Tuo was angry and a mouthful ......of blood spurted out, pointing at Peng Yue and scolding.

"Click"

A shining sword flash with a crisp sound. A stream of hot blood spurted out more than three feet high.

Hamataka still maintains the lip shape of the word "death", but he can no longer say it. In a daze, he found himself suddenly flying higher and higher, and a headless corpse below was slowly spurting hot blood and slowly falling to the ground.
