Chapter 269: The Stone Throwing Cart

The change of concept, in many cases, is more important than the use of an advanced jishu.

The new Qin State under Li Yuan's rule, while bringing vitality to the people of Qin State, is also transmitting a kind of high-spirited Xiangshang, as a generation of young people, Gan Yong is the most deeply felt, but also the most acceptable one.

Just like just now, bravely speaking out his ideas as a captain is unimaginable in the Qin army, which has a strict hierarchy and as many as 19 military titles.

Attack Li Qi.

Gan Yong's suggestion was put into the discussion agenda as a feasible plan, which made Gan Yong very nervous and a little apprehensive.

"Although Li Qi is very weak, if he can't defend it, it will not be easy for our army to annihilate 20,000 people in a while. Moreover, the speed of attacking Li Qi and Chen Yu's rescue will be faster than Liu Bang's. Chen Feng had been silent, and this time he finally raised his concerns, and this way of discussing the enemy's plan before the battle in the Qin army made him feel very novel.

In the Chu army, fighting against the enemy is often Xiang Yu's words, and occasionally Fan Zeng proposes one or two strategic supplements, and in other princes' armies, it is generally the boss who speaks, and the others nod their heads in agreement, and then the big guy comes forward to slash and kill.

The only thing that had a decent discussion atmosphere was Liu Bang's Han army, because Liu Bang himself let go of the military aspect, and generals such as Cao Shen, Zhou Bo, and Xiahou Ying, plus Zhang Liang, Xiao He, Li Shiqi and other strategists had different opinions, and sometimes fierce disputes occurred.

An excellent commander is not only to delegate power and let his generals express their opinions, but more importantly, to reasonably guide the discussion when it enters the critical node, and in this regard, Li Yuan has done quite well.

"Ladies and gentlemen, once we attack Liu Bang. Chen Yu and Li Qi will definitely send troops to rescue each other for self-preservation, but from Chen Yu's psychological point of view, the time and intensity of the rescue will not be too fast, after all, between Liu Bang and Chen Yu, it is only a relationship of mutual use, if Liu Bangjun can consume a little more of our army's liliang, it is also what Chen Yu and they want to see. ”

Li Yuan paused at this point. He also said: "Therefore, we can completely use a strong force to attack Liu Bang, so as to create the illusion that our army wants to swallow Liu in one fell swoop, so as to attract Chen Yu and Li Qi's reinforcements. ”

In the four years of conquest, what was given to Li Yuan was not only status, glory, and women. The most important thing is the experience gained from fighting again and again.

This kind of experience is not a golden finger falling from the sky, it is Li Yuan's real personal comprehension, and the bloody battles of the Qin army seem to be easy. The danger is also blood-wrenching.

"Next, I order: Chen Xuan, Cao Xin, and Gan Yong's troops will follow Ben Hou to attack Liu Bang's camp on the left flank of the Zhao army; Su Jiao's light cavalry was responsible for spying on the news of Chen Yu and Li Zuo's armies. The heavy cavalry ambushed between the giant deer and the Qingzhang water, and the enemy came to help, and they were all annihilated. Li Yuan shouted.

After synthesizing the meaning of the generals. Li Yuan Zuihou made a decision, encirclement and reinforcement, which is also a classic tactic, Li Yuan used it once in the battle between the Qin army and the Han army in Nanyang County, but that time it was a siege and reinforcement, and the real focus was on Wancheng, and this time, the Qin army focused on reinforcements.

Of course, if Chen Yu and Li Qi don't save them when they see death, Li Yuan doesn't care about taking the opportunity to solve Liu Bang's old opponent, to be honest, Liu Bang's attacks again and again also make Li Yuan feel annoyed.

——。

The victory or defeat of the battle is just a thought.

The main force of the Qin army was approaching day by day, and the suffocation of this oppression made Liu Bang feel both familiar and frightened. Rising up again and again, failing again and again, brought Liu Bang deep despair and resentment.

Liu Bang hadn't had a good break for several days, and judging from the intelligence obtained by the scouts, Li Yuan's Qin army was attacking in a direction that was directed at his side.

"Ofan, Li thief, this is a place where you want me to die." Liu Bang hated Li Yuan in his heart, and said to Zhang Liang, who also looked haggard.

"Under the command of Pei Gong, there are more than 18,000 generals of the Zhao army, and the combat power of this army is not to say that it is confronted with the Qin army, even compared with the original Han army, it is also inferior. Now the only thing available is morale, Zhao Di has many sad songs, and Qin has a pit and killing enmity, if we can arouse the desire for revenge of the generals, maybe we still have a chance to live. Zhang Liang thought about it again and again, and only after a while did he say a cautious admonition.

Liu Bang's temper has been very bad recently, although Zhang Liang is quite important, but the so-called idea is you, and you are the one who bears the responsibility for the idea.

"That's the only way, Zifang, you will go to Julu City tomorrow, and once the Qin army attacks our army, you will immediately urge Chen Yu to send troops. If Chen Yu refuses, you will go to Handan and tell your wife, saying that I, Liu Ji, have broken my promise, let her run as far as she can with her son, and never come back——! Liu Bang muttered.

"Pei Gong ——!" When Zhang Liang heard this, he couldn't help but wet his clothes with tears, Liu Bang's words were almost his last words, even if he could escape ten times, it didn't mean that he could get his wish next time.

"Okay, what are you crying about, big man, stand up and pee, lie down and don't think about anything when you die. Ovary, after this farewell, I'm afraid Zaijian won't be able to do it, don't think about me! Liu Bang said while laughing, his eyes were red, wet, and a little crystal flickering.

After Zhang Liang left, Liu Bang immediately ordered the whole army to be formed, he personally led an army, Liu Jia and Han Wangxin were separated, and the Zhao army used the camp as a barrier, prepared more arrows and obstacles, and greeted the arrival of the Qin army with a stubborn posture.

——。

Rumble!

A huge rock fell from the sky.

Smashed down in the center of Liu Bang's military camp, after the stones were in close contact with the solid hard ground, they scattered and burst apart, like a bowl of small stones splashed in a disorderly manner, hitting more than ten unlucky soldiers, two of the most unfortunate of which were hit in the head, and immediately burst their brains, and fell to the ground unable to move.

"Hide." Han Wangxin's face was gloomy and he shouted urgently.

"General Han, the big guy who can throw stones in the enemy army is too fierce, and he can't hide anywhere." A Zhao military captain had a torn armor wrapped around his head, and he had no choice but to reciprocate.

"Hey, this battle is really unfought, Pei Gong, what is the news, when will King Zhao's reinforcements arrive." Han Wangxin bent down into the low barracks tent made of wood and asked impatiently.

"There is no news yet, Pei Gong replied, let's hold on for another three days." A close confidant reported weakly.

"Three days, I'm sorry, I can't hold on for a day, and for three days, let him Liu Ji come here for a day to try." Han Wangxin shouted and scolded with his shirt open, took off his helmet and threw it to the ground.

Han Wang didn't hesitate to say anything, he had always been suspicious of going north to Zhao State, the reason why he didn't turn his face with Liu Bang was because of Zhang Liang's mediation, but this time, Han Wangxin couldn't help it.

This time it was a confrontation with the Qin army.

Han Wangxin's troops were put at the forefront, which is not to say that Liu Bang deliberately made it difficult, but that there were more than 1,600 Han army veterans in Han Wangxin's army, and these soldiers had fought with the Qin army, and they were much stronger than the Zhao army in terms of experience.

At the same time, in order to increase the confidence of the troops of the former army, Liu Bang also transferred the only remaining 500 crossbows in the Zhao army to Han Wangxin.

It's a pity that the changes in the battle situation left Liu Bang and Han Wangxin speechless.

On the first day of the Qin army's onslaught on the camp, Li Yuan reversed his cautious attitude and directly dispatched Cao Xin's Yueshi soldiers, compared with the last time there were only more than 1,000 people, this time Xiaoyue's strength to join the Qin army was surprising, this was mainly due to the Yue's soldiers who accompanied Cao Xin to Nanyang County to fight, and after returning to Longxi, they were rewarded handsomely according to their military merits.

Stimulated by interests, the Yue people finally put the scruples of the tribe and clan behind. Cao Xin brought 3,000 Xiaoyue soldiers with him this time, including 500 archers with great strength, 1,200 foot soldiers, 700 light cavalry, and 600 strong men.

These specially selected Yueshi soldiers were mainly responsible for manipulating seven rough wooden stone-throwing carts made by the Lishan soldiers, and with the strength of the Qin State, the speed at which new weapons appeared on the battlefield was also accelerating.

The principle of this kind of rough wood cow tendon stone throwing car is very simple, that is, the law of leverage, in the Western medieval castle offensive and defensive battles, the stone throwing car has been widely used, and in the Chinese cold weapon war, the stone throwing tool first appeared on the battlefield, and it was still postponed to the era of the Cao Yuan War during the Three Kingdoms.

With the jishu ability built by Qin Guobing, it is not difficult to make a stone-throwing car, and the key is whether the master's comprehension ability is reached, after all, no one has an impression of this kind of thing except Li Yuan. After Sima Yin devoted himself to the affairs of military construction, military manufacturing gradually began to embark on the channel of rapid development.

The battlefield is the best place to test new weapons, the tense relationship between Qin and Zhao also makes the craftsmen of the military construction excited, such as these seven stone throwing cars, from the idea to the trial, it only took a short two months, there is no difficulty in wood, the only trouble is the pull of the elastic rope, after many shiyan, it is finally confirmed that the cow tendon is the main lifting auxiliary material.

Cow tendon has a strong telescopic ability, which is impossible for ordinary ropes, which can also make the stone throwing car have a longer range on flat ground, which makes the stone throwing car have a wider range of applications. (To be continued......)

PS: Well, on the premise of not trying too much, start the use of some new weapons and new jishu.
