Chapter 185: In an instant

As a general in the Qin army, Meng Ming's own strength is not weak.

Meng Ming was born in Yi County, and was the descendant of the Meng clan, a former great clan in the Qin State.

Yixian was once the most elite place of the Qin State and the main source of recruitment for the soldiers of the Qin State.

Although at this time, Yixian County no longer had the glory it once had, it was still an extremely important county of the Qin State.

And the Meng clan is the big family here.

In addition to the Meng family, there are two major clans in Yixian County: West and Bai.

The three major clans live here, in charge of land and water, and the three major clans are all century-old families of the Qin State.

The ancestor of the Meng clan is Meng Mingshi, the son of Baili Xi, a famous minister in the time of Mu Gong, and the ancestors of the Xibai clan are the two sons of the famous minister Jian Shu of Baili Xi in the same period, Xi Qishu and Bai Yibing, the three of them once attacked the Jin Kingdom together, and the relationship between the three clans of Mengxi and Bai has always been very good.

After Qin Mugong, the descendants of the three ethnic groups always lived next to each other, and for more than two hundred years, they gradually occupied most of Yixian.

The three clans are all diligent and warlike clans, and they have always been the hometown of noble cloth and the ancestors of the knights of the Qin State.

After the Shang Dynasty changed the law, the subordinate agriculture Jingtian was abolished, and the people of the whole country became "national people", and the knightly privileges and priority privileges of the three tribes of Mengxibai disappeared as soon as they became the old Qin people who were equal to the countrymen.

At this time, the Meng and Xiqi tribes gradually declined due to poor farming, and the Bai clan gradually became the largest clan in Yi County.

It is worth mentioning that Bai Qi, the former god of war, was also born in Yixian County and was a child of the Bai family.

With the rise of Bai Qi, the Bai clan became more and more prosperous, but with Bai Qi's death, the number one clan in Yi County dissipated.

The Meng and Western clans, since their decline, there are no outstanding children who can ascend to high positions.

Fortunately, the Meng clan still has some influence in the army, while the Xi clan is in complete decline.

The once prominent Mengxi and Bai clans have become a cloud of smoke, and now the dignitaries of the Qin State are the Wang and Meng clans headed by Wang Jian and Meng Tian.

This Meng Ming is the most outstanding son of the Meng clan's generation, ranking among the Qin military captains.

After all, the Meng clan is a big clan in the past, although it has declined, but there is still some heritage, those in the eyes of ordinary people, extremely mysterious and rare methods of guiding and training the body, in the Meng clan, but there is a complete inheritance.

Meng Ming, as the most outstanding disciple of the Meng clan in this generation, naturally has the support of the entire Meng clan, plus Meng Ming himself has some talent, and his strength at this time is also quite strong in the Qin army.

Otherwise, with the decline of the Meng clan, if Meng Ming did not have strong personal strength, it would be impossible for him to stand out among the wolf-like Qin army.

Without strength, he couldn't even suppress the soldiers under his command.

Just like Huan Qi, his strength is actually weaker than Meng Ming, Wang Yu, and Li Yi.

But Huan Qi's talent above the unified army is much higher than that of the three, so he is in the position of the main general.

This situation naturally made the three of them very indignant in their hearts, thinking that the position of the main general should be theirs, but it was stolen by this Huan Xiaoer.

Although the three of them could not refuse Huan Qi's military order because of the Qin Army's military law, the three of them did nothing less than to disobey the yang and the yin.

Meng Ming's strength was extraordinary, and when he looked at the figure of the enemy from a distance, he realized that something was wrong.

Unless the general army marches in a hurry, the speed of the march is not much faster.

Therefore, even if the cavalry has limited combat effectiveness at this time and cannot really serve as a frontal attack force, his role is still very large, and that is because it can play the role of pursuing and defeating the army.

Because even if the main pawn does not maintain the formation, he has to take his weapons and wear armor, and under such a burden, he naturally can't catch up with the remnants of the defeated soldiers who have lost their armor and abandoned their armor.

At this time, the cavalry needs to go to cover the kill, so that the rout army can maintain the rout all the time, instead of retreating a distance and then resting and assembling and regaining some combat strength.

It's far away, that is to say, even if the normal pursuing troops travel faster than the Qin army carrying the axle weight, it is not much faster because of the armor.

After all, it is necessary to maintain a certain combat effectiveness, and it is impossible to go all out on the road.

Meng Ming didn't hear the sound of horses' hooves, only the sound of chaotic footsteps, obviously, the pursuing enemy only had infantry, not cavalry.

But with Meng Ming's far beyond ordinary eyesight, what he saw was that these pursuing enemies were moving extremely fast, and in his estimation, even those routs who had lost their armor and were completely concerned about fleeing for their lives would not be able to run so fast.

But he clearly saw that the pursuing enemies were all dressed in heavy armor, and the weapons in their hands were not trivial.

It is counterintuitive to be able to walk like a fly while carrying such a heavy burden!

"Quick, arrows, shoot!"

Meng Ming's face changed abruptly, and he urgently ordered the crossbow troops to attack.

"Wow———— hum ——!"

With the sound of a bowstring and the humming sound, like a flying locust, a black cloud rose from the Qin army, and flew straight towards the heavy black shadows that rushed in the distance.

Meng Ming didn't even have time to test the shot, because when he saw those black shadows, suddenly, the speed of those black shadows suddenly soared, and in an instant, they had already entered within hundreds of steps.

Meng Ming didn't have time to make more arrangements at this time, but fortunately, the arrow array had been laid out before, and the crossbowmen were all ready to take their bows and arrows.

With Meng Ming's order, these crossbowmen bent their bows and arrows at a very fast speed, shooting the arrows in their hands.

The dense arrows look terrifying, there is no way to dodge, there is no way to avoid it, this is exactly the Qin army's arrow array that the Qin army relies on to become famous and powerful in the world.

No matter how elite the troops are, they have to be shot into a sieve in front of this arrow array, and they can't be defeated.

Although Meng Ming was surprised by the speed of the pursuing enemy, he couldn't help but show a hint of pride on his face when he saw the swarming black pressure.

Unfortunately, this expression did not last long, and it changed color in an instant.

I saw that in the face of that terrifying arrow array, those pursuing enemies did not choose to dodge at all, but did not reduce their speed and completely ignored it.

Although it was not in a formation, the overlapping and endless black shadows carried an unstoppable momentum and directly pressed towards the Qin army formation.

In the eyes of the nations, the extremely terrifying arrow array was only like a breeze, shooting into the black shadow that was pursuing, and there was not even a single movement.

This couldn't help but dazzle the Qin soldiers, and before they could think about it, they saw countless warriors in heavy armor, holding giant swords and huge shields, and their incomparably strong bodies rushing in front of them.

There was not even a trace of resistance, and the crossbow troops in the front line did not even have time to fire a second arrow, and they were all fallen and easily routed by the enemy.

The infantry of the Qin army in the rear was no exception, although the Qin army was well-trained and had a firm will to fight, but under force majeure, they did not have any ability to resist at all.

Even Meng Ming, who was the main general in the formation and the strongest in martial arts, only struggled a little more, and was stunned by the black armor warrior's shield.

Not only Meng Ming's department, but even Wang Yu and Li Yi's department, who were ambushed on both sides, were easily defeated by the black-armored warriors who suddenly arrived.

The 30,000 Qin troops were defeated in an instant, most of them were stunned and killed, and only a small number of people who were in the back, had excellent luck and had some vision, escaped with their lives and ran towards the rear.

After the black-armored warriors defeated these Qin troops, they did not stop, but left a small number of people to guard the prisoners, and the rest continued to chase after most of the Qin army.
