Chapter Seventy-Six: The Thunderbolt Shows Its Might
Near the Lantian camp, countless troops full of red ants rushed forward
At this time, Cao Shen was ordered to lead 20,000 cavalry to take the lead, and in less than two minutes, the cavalry regiment had rushed in front of the shouting Qin army just now
Cao Shen's eyes narrowed, the strength of this Qin army was about 30,000 people, and the cavalry was only three or four thousand horses
The corners of Cao Shen's mouth rose, with this little force, he dared to face my army of almost 100,000? I'm afraid that the other party's master will have a convulsion
There was no need for the infantry behind him, and only 20,000 cavalry would be able to end the battle soon
At this time, the leading general of the Qin army was He Yutai, who fled to Guanzhong in the morning, and the 30,000 Qin troops looked at the red sea like a tsunami on the opposite side, and were not afraid at all, and bravely rushed towards the enemy army in front
When there was only a distance of more than 300 meters left between the two cavalry regiments with a huge disparity in strength, He Yutai shouted: "All the cavalry listen to the order and ignite the 'thunderbolt'!" ”
When the cavalry heard this, they suddenly attached themselves to their horses, and each of them drew a fire fold and a round iron weapon from their waists, and after a while, a strong pungent smell wafted in the air...
Between breaths, the two cavalry were less than a hundred meters apart, and the cavalry looked down at the half-burned lead in their hands, and their hearts were panicked
If one is bad or delayed, then this 'thunderbolt' is fatal on the spot...
"Ninety meters, eighty meters, seventy meters..."
He Yutai silently calculated in his heart, and when he estimated that the distance between the two sides was less than seventy meters, he shouted: "Throw !! ”
Among them, more than 2,000 knights did not dare to hesitate at all, and followed the inertia of the horse to throw the round iron weapon in their hands towards the Liu Bang cavalry on the opposite side
And the 20,000 cavalry led by Cao Shen suddenly saw countless things with Martian seeds smashed into the army in the sky, and all the knights were puzzled in their hearts for a while
"What is this? Smaller than a stone, what will it do? ”
In the middle of his thoughts, all those small iron balls had fallen into the position of 20,000 cavalry
When there are less than ten meters left between the two armies!
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ...............”
Countless loud noises that pierced the ears sounded, and the horses of the two armies that were sprinting were suddenly stopped by the loud sound and shock wave
Huge black smoke rose up, and the war at this time could really be called a battlefield filled with gunpowder. Since then, I am afraid that the situation of the future war will completely change drastically...
And at this moment, the 20,000 cavalry led by Cao Shen was in a mess, the horses neighed, the screams cried and cried, and the sound was endless...
Although Cao Shen was not affected by the explosion just now, he was very close, and his mind was blank for a moment because of the loud explosion just now. Looking back at the cavalry array, the scene was like hell on earth
But the opponent won't give you a chance, the more than 3,000 cavalry led by He Yutai controlled the reins of the horse when the enemy was stunned, chaotic, and stagnant, and smashed straight into the cavalry formation in front of him like a sharp sword!
"Kill!"
"Rush! ... Kill! ”
.....
At this time, the more than 3,000 cavalry led by He Yutai were like wolves entering a flock of sheep, and the other party was blown up by thousands of 'thunderbolts' just now, and the losses were quite heavy
Before he came to his senses, the Qin cavalry had already entered the formation
Cao Shen pulled the reins of the horse and shouted: "Steady!" Hold it for me!! The cavalry of the Qin army is small, and the array surrounds and annihilates the cavalry of the Qin army!! ”
After hearing the call of the commander, the cavalry finally calmed down and dispelled the terrifying fear from the unknown just now...
Although the 20,000 cavalry suffered heavy losses by the inexplicable iron ball just now, the main force of the cavalry is still there, and if the formation is tightly arranged, it can still eat this Qin cavalry
After reacting, all the knights pulled the reins in their hands to control their horses and rushed towards the Qin army
But... It seems to be a step too late
Because the two armies were too close just now, the Qin army took advantage of the chaos to rush into the cavalry formation and slash and kill indiscriminately, losing nearly 3,000 knights on the spot
Cao Shen and other generals who watched it were in pain, counting the cavalry who had just been bombed. In less than one round trip, I am afraid that seven or eight thousand cavalry have been lost
Cao Shen's eyes were blood-red, he pulled out his long sword, roared angrily, and galloped towards the Qin cavalry formation... And when the cavalry behind him saw that the main general was taking the lead, they all followed even more frantically to tear this Qin cavalry alive
The black cavalry regiment was surrounded by a sea of red, but He Yutai led the black knights without panic at all, steady and steady, and did not collapse
And although Cao Shen's more than 10,000 cavalry were extremely bloody and brave, it would be difficult to eat this Qin cavalry for a while
But time waits for no one, the two armies haven't fought for a few rounds, and the 27,000 Qin Bu troops behind them have already taken the lead in rushing to... However, the 70,000 army led by Liu Bang still has two miles to ......
The earth-shattering sound just now also alarmed Liu Bangbu's army, which was still marching, and all the troops were shocked and stopped breathing for a moment
After Liu Bang and Zhang Liang said a few words, they immediately ordered the army to speed up, and they were very worried about what happened to the 20,000 precious cavalry... These cavalry are the real main force, and without them, no matter how many infantry they have, they will not be able to accomplish anything
When the 27,000 Qin infantry saw the encircled Qin cavalry regiment, they all angrily held spears and slaughtered this red sea...
At this time, when Liu Bang's main army was walking quickly to a mile away from 20,000 cavalry, suddenly!
Countless black arrows flew into the sky, and hundreds of red-clothed soldiers fell to the ground in a breath
And Liu Bang's army was also blocked by this sudden rain of arrows, and the army stopped!
Liu Bang's face was shocked, and he didn't expect that the Qin army had also set up an ambush here, and shouted: "The shield army is forward, stop the Qin army's crossbow arrows!" ”
"Whoa!"
I saw 5,000 soldiers holding huge shields standing on the side of Liu Bang's army
"Bang, bang, bang, bang......"
In a moment, the shield army formed a long line of defense, and under the superposition of the two shields, the height actually blocked wave after wave of Qin army's arrow rain
"Boom Boom...."
Suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves, and judging by its momentum, it seemed to be in the thousands
However, the sound of the horse's hooves is like a death knell at this time, where is this the rotten and war-fearing Qin army? This is obviously the Qin army that swept away Liuhe
And Liu Bang's guess was right, only to see a black cavalry team coming out from behind a mound, and it was seen that its number was about 3,000 horsemen
The main general who led this cavalry was none other than Li Xin!
Li Xin swung the horseshoe under his feet with both feet, nodded with satisfaction, and muttered: "Gongzi can come up with such a wonderful thing, it would be nice if he could equip the whole army with horse shoes this time, but unfortunately there are less than a thousand horseshoe...... Otherwise, it would be easier to take Liu Bang's 30,000 rides, hehe. ”
Three thousand black-armored cavalry followed behind Li Xin, running quickly to approach Liu Bang's army
Liu Bang's face was shocked, and he pulled Zhang Liang: "Ovary, how could the Qin army do such a subtle ambush?" What should I do? ”
Zhang Liang was also shocked by this wave of ambushes, his face turned pale, he miscalculated, he completely miscalculated
Zhang Liang took a deep breath and said calmly: "Lord, I'm afraid that there will be famous generals in this Qin army, otherwise it will be difficult to do such an offensive..."
"Now the 20,000 cavalry led by General Cao Shen still don't know what the situation is, it is better for our army to move forward, break through the Qin Fu army, and quickly rendezvous with the cavalry."
Liu Bang did not hesitate after hearing this, and shouted: "Zhou Bo! The swift army marched forward with all its might, and the cavalry was less than a mile away from us! ”
After hearing this, Zhou Bo immediately gave up his hand: "Oh! ”
