Chapter Twenty-Seven: Victory in the First Battle
"Rumble!" In the earth-shattering loud noise, I saw the Qin army driving out of the camp like a tide, one team after another.
The Qin army was not in the slightest disorder, orderly, and orderly, and at a glance it was a well-trained elite.
"Qin Jun!" The Huns were surprised when they saw it.
Immediately afterwards, the Xiongnu was angry and shouted: "Qin dog, suffer death!" ”
Qin Yiren instructed Li Mu to dig the ancestral grave of the Xiongnu, which was an intolerable shame for the Xiongnu, and they hated the Qin army together, roaring loudly, and rushed over at the Qin army.
"Woohoo!" The Huns rode their horses and charged, and at the same time released arrows, and the sound of breaking the air was loud, like thunder.
I have to say that the Huns' archery skills are very good, Qin Yiren saw it in his eyes, and couldn't help but cheer loudly: "Good!" Pick! ”
Although the Xiongnu are hated, Qin Yiren will not erase the merits of the Xiongnu. If you want to defeat the enemy, you must face up to the enemy's merits, otherwise everything will be empty talk.
"I have heard for a long time that the Huns have ridden and shot, and it is true!" Huang Shigong, Li Si and Han Fei were also full of praise.
"Shoot the arrows!" Suddenly, there was a thunderous roar in the Qin army, and it was Li Mu who gave the order.
"Woohoo!" For a time, countless arrows were shot out from the Qin army, densely packed, covering the sky and the sun, and even the sunlight could not penetrate, like a net against the Huns.
The Xiongnu's cavalry is certainly good, but the Qin army's cavalry is not bad, and this round of arrows is undoubtedly revealed.
"Ahhh Screams rang out, and both the Qin army and the Xiongnu were hit by arrows.
Those who were shot by the Huns were wounded if they did not die. One after another. The casualties were significant. On the other hand, the Qin army. The casualties were not large, mainly because the Qin army was much better equipped than the Xiongnu.
The Huns are dressed in leather armor, and their protective power is really not flattering, can the arrows of the Qin army not suffer great casualties?
The armor of the Qin army is mostly bronze armor, and although its protection is not as good as that of iron armor, it is much higher than that of leather armor. Again. The Xiongnu's bows and arrows were not as powerful as the Qin army's bows and arrows, because the Xiongnu's technology was far inferior to that of the Qin State, and the lethality of their arrows was limited.
After a series of arrows, the Xiongnu's charge was finally stopped, and they had to retreat and prepare to charge again.
And Li Mu seized this moment and ordered the Qin army to line up. The shooting of Shicai was carried out by the Qin army during the march. There is no formation yet, and its power is limited. If the Qin army forms a formation and comes to shoot again. The casualties of the Huns would have been much higher.
The Qin army was well-trained, and the formation was very fast, and it didn't take much effort to form a formation. I saw several phalanxes appear in the local area, converging into a huge military array, like a black sea tide.
As soon as the formation of the Qin army was formed, the aura of slaughter was emptied, straight through the nine skies, and it was shocking.
"This Li Mu is really amazing, he is handy in command, and he is not a little rusty." When the generals of the Qin army saw it, they were very surprised, and they had to be convinced, and they couldn't help but praise loudly.
In addition to the fact that the Qin army was well-trained, there was another reason why the Qin army was able to line up so quickly, that is, Li Mu's command was very orderly. This kind of result, Qin Yiren is not surprised, after all, Li Mu is an unborn military genius, if he doesn't even have this ability, how can he be inseparable from Wang Qian. Moreover, when Qin Shi Huang destroyed Zhao, Zhao's military strength was far inferior to Qin's, and it was in that situation that Li Mu was able to resist the attack of the Qin army, so that Wang Jian couldn't help it, how difficult it was.
And these generals of the Qin army don't know this, according to their thoughts, Li Mu is a general of Zhao, although he is very familiar with the Qin army, but he has never commanded the Qin army, and the first time he is commanded, he is always unfamiliar, and there will always be some problems. To their surprise, Li Mu didn't have this sense of rustiness at all, as if commanding the Zhao army he was familiar with.
"This is Qin Jun?" Just looking at it in his eyes, he was shocked.
He has heard for a long time that the Qin army is extremely powerful, and looking at the world, except for Qiang, no one dares to touch the tiger beard of the Qin army. Seeing that the Qin army was so powerful today, I couldn't help but be shocked.
If it were an ordinary day, he would definitely think twice about whether to attack or not. However, today, he was blinded by hatred, and only thought about revenge and hatred, and washed away the shame and shame, and this shock only existed for a very short time, that is, hatred surged up, and shouted: "Warriors of the Great Huns, kill!" Kill all the Qin dogs! Revenge and hatred! ”
patted the horse's back and galloped out first.
Although the first round of attacks was very unfavorable, the Huns, who were blinded by hatred, were not afraid, on the contrary, they were still high-spirited, roared loudly, followed Shan Yu, and rushed towards the Qin army like a splash of wind.
"Boom!" In the earth-shattering loud noise, I saw that the Huns were like stormy waves, surging, unstoppable, and rushed towards the Qin army.
At the place where the horse's hooves were stepping, the dust was flying, and in just a few moments, a huge dark cloud suddenly appeared, connecting the sky to the ground, covering the sun, and the sky was dark, which made people feel depressed.
Hatred was filled in their hearts, the Huns were unwilling to swear to take revenge, their fighting spirit climbed to the highest peak, all of them were red-eyed, roaring loudly, wanting to fight to the death with the Qin army.
The Huns have not yet arrived, and their murderous aura has arrived, which makes people's hearts palpitate.
"The Xiongnu are really not to be underestimated, no wonder they can cause such a disaster in the Han Dynasty!" Qin Yiren was surprised when he saw it.
The Huns grew up on horseback, could live their lives on horseback, were good at riding and shooting, and were born warriors. If there is strict discipline, sophisticated equipment, and strict training, the Xiongnu will definitely be even better.
In fact, the nomads of the desert are natural warriors who can burst out with amazing energy if used well. Of course, because the nomads can only bend their horses and bows, they do not have developed civilization and advanced technology, and their weapons and equipment are extremely backward, although they are fierce and good at fighting, it is difficult to shake China, and the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Turks are all destroyed because of this.
Of course, there is one exception, and that is the Mongols. The Mongols are the culmination of the nomadic people in the desert, not only the Mongols are brave and good at fighting, but also sophisticated equipment, strict discipline, strict training, and advanced tactics, which are the fundamental reasons why the Mongols were able to sweep across the Eurasian continent.
The reason why the Mongols were able to have such a strong combat power was that the Mongols caught up with the good time, and were supported by the Han people in the north who had advanced technology, and had sophisticated equipment.
The Xiongnu did not have this kind of good luck, although the Xiongnu were very brave and good at fighting, but in the end it was because of the birth defects of the Xiongnu, and was broken by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, and finally the entire race disappeared.
"The Xiongnu race should not be underestimated, and the Xiongnu must not be allowed to get the land of the Hetao!" Qin Yiren admonished himself in his heart.
The land of the Loop is not only a natural pasture, but also an extremely important strategic springboard, and whoever controls the land of the Loop has a strategic advantage. If Huaxia mastered the land of the Hetao, Huaxia could use it as a base to attack Mobei and fundamentally destroy the Xiongnu. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu, which was a good use of the strategic base of the Hetao.
If the Xiongnu get the land of the Hetao, the Xiongnu can use it as a base and cause disaster to the Central Plains. The actions of the Xiongnu in the early Han Dynasty are the best proof of this.
Just when Qin Yiren changed his mind, he saw countless crossbow arrows shot out of the Qin army's array, and it was Qin's crossbow that was powerful.
"Woohoo!" The sound of breaking through the air was shrill and piercing, like the screeching of a missile.
The Qin crossbow is the most important weapon of the Qin army, this is powerful, so what is it? I saw an overwhelming number of crossbow arrows appear in the air, covering the sky and the sun, and the sunlight could not penetrate it. Countless crossbow arrows were woven into a huge arrow net, and they were fiercely covered by the Huns.
"Puff puff!" A series of muffled flesh-pounding sounds rang out.
"Ahhh It was accompanied by bursts of heart-rending screams.
I saw many Huns flying in the air, dancing with their hands, as if they were dancing in space.
Qin crossbow is the most powerful crossbow in ancient China, its power is shocking, even the strong crossbow of the Han and Tang dynasties can not be surpassed, Qin crossbow this might, is in the string of human flesh skewers, the Huns ranging from three to five are strung together, flying in the air, Wei is magnificent, can be called a wonder.
"Bang bang bang!" The sound of a series of crashes sounded the sound of these flying Huns falling to the ground. In just a few moments, these fallen Huns were piled up into small mountains.
These mountains of corpses piled up by corpses couldn't help but tremble, and the screams of the Huns were indescribably weird.
In this round of shooting, the Huns paid an extremely heavy price.
And the Xiongnu were far away from the Qin army, and wanting to shoot the Qin army was tantamount to a fool's dream.
This is the advantage of the long range of the strong crossbow!
Although the Xiongnu were good at cavalry archery, they were completely suppressed by the Qin army because their range was far inferior to that of a strong crossbow. This was an important reason why Meng Tian was able to defeat the Xiongnu in the land of the Hetao.
The Xiongnu were very good masters of guerrilla warfare, and if they were allowed to give full play to their advantages, the Qin army might not be able to defeat the Xiongnu. However, the Xiongnu did not have sophisticated equipment, and when they encountered the strong crossbows of the Qin army, they were only slaughtered, and the scene in front of them was the best interpretation.
"Woohoo!" Just after a round of crossbow arrows, another round of crossbow arrows appeared, and the Huns suffered many casualties and accumulated a lot of corpses.
Rounds of crossbow arrows continued to appear, and more and more Huns were shot, and the Huns became more and more chaotic.
The Xiongnu fought without any rules, no formation, and the fight was a surge, and facing the Qin army with a strict formation, it was tantamount to sending them to death.
If the situation was so unfavorable in ordinary times, the Xiongnu would have scattered as birds and beasts, and fled as far as they could. However, today is different, the Huns were blinded by hatred, and there was only one thought in their hearts, that is, revenge, although the casualties were not small, but they did not escape. Not only did they not flee, but they rushed even harder.
If you look at it from the air, you can see countless Xiongnu converging into a sea and charging at the Qin army. And the Qin army is like a rock in the vast ocean, no matter how the Xiongnu attack, it will not move.
The corpses on the ground accumulated more and more, at first it was just a mountain of corpses in the east and a mountain of corpses in the west, then there were more and more corpse mountains, and then when I looked at it, there were mountains of corpses everywhere.
Moreover, there was more and more blood on the ground, first a lake of blood in the east and a lake in the west, and in the end, the entire battlefield was red. Glittering in the daylight, bewitching and eerie, indescribably terrifying. (To be continued.) )
