Chapter Seventy-Five: The Battle of the River

In the evening, the Han and Wei coalition forces finally arrived in Pingyin, and the Qin army could be seen from afar, and the black pressure was overwhelming.

"How many soldiers did the Qin army cross the river?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"Your lord, you have already crossed the river 80,000 to 90,000, and the army behind you is still crossing the river, and the Qin army has even pulled small boats to transport troops, it seems that it is planning to transport all the 150,000 troops over today." Liu Ping said.

It's not that the Qin army doesn't have boats, but there aren't many, and they are all small boats that transport grain and grass, otherwise they wouldn't have spent manpower and material resources to build pontoon bridges.

"The Han and Wei coalition forces are here."

Si Li looked at the coming coalition army, his face instantly became solemn, and with a wave of the long sword in his hand, he did not move like a mountain formation to cover the Qin army, and the earthy yellow war clouds rolled in the sky.

"There's no problem with backing up, right?" King Qin said with some concern.

He had already handed over all the command to Si Li, and no matter what Si Li had arranged, he hadn't stopped it, but now when he saw the arrival of the Han army and the Wei army, he couldn't help but be a little worried.

The Qin army only crossed the river with more than 80,000 troops, and more than 60,000 did not have time to cross the river, while the Han and Wei coalition troops were 250,000! Nearly twice the gap!

"As long as the Fei Lian Army can block Wei Wushu and the strong crossbowmen of South Korea, our army can win." Si Li said solemnly.

Almost all of the elites of the Qin State were in Shangdang, and a small number were in Nanjun to guard against the Chu State.

In addition to the Fei Lian Army and 20,000 cavalry, the other soldiers led by him were still farming at home half a month ago.

Even if it is a fixed annual military service, it is only a month of "watchman" repairing the city wall and participating in some training, and most of them are on the battlefield for the first time.

But fortunately, the two armies of Han and Wei are also rookies, and the soldiers have just put down their hoes and have not been on the battlefield for long, otherwise Si Li would never dare to deploy the formation like this.

And the Qin army also has an advantage that the Han and Wei coalition forces do not have, that is, the king of Qin!

It is unimaginable that the royal drive will increase morale, as long as the king of Qin does not retreat, the Qin army will fight to the death!

"Can you block it?" King Qin looked at Qin Hong, the commander of the Feilian Army beside him.

"Kill as many as you want." Qin Hong's reply was concise and firm.

If it was the former Wei Wushu and the strong crossbowmen, the Fei Lian Army would still regard them as opponents, as for the current two legions?

Native chicken tile dog!

"Knock knock!"

The heavy sound of drums spread across the river.

The two sides had a tacit understanding, and without any answer, they launched an attack directly.

The Qin army slowly advanced, with 20,000 cavalry equipped with stirrups and saddles, and infantry with large shields, including Wang Qi and Shuai Qi, who walked in the front of the center.

King Qin didn't know how to command a battle, but he knew what kind of approach would best stimulate morale, so he decisively erected the royal flag, and he stood under the royal flag in a royal robe, so that all the soldiers could see it.

Zhao Kuo did not show weakness, and also stood the Shuai Qi at the forefront,-for-tat with the King of Qin, and at the same time the military flags of the three kingdoms of Han, Zhao and Wei, slowly advancing towards the Qin army.

Just when the distance between the two sides was only about a mile away, the two armies increased their speed at the same time.

"Everyone, rush with me!"

The veteran Storm Kite Changge waved, covered with a sharp arrow array, and the fiery red war cloud swept away, driving the chariot to rumble towards the Qin army, and a crimson sword light more than 100 meters long slashed out, and the entire Qin army battle cloud was dark.

Looking at the flaws exposed by the Qin army, the storm kite did not hesitate at all, and immediately led the Han army to plunge directly into it, and killed the thousand generals of the Qin army in front of him.

"Capture King Qin alive!" Storm Kite shouted.

"Capture King Qin alive!" All the soldiers shouted, and the sound shook the heavens and the earth.

Stove desperately commanded the army to block the kite, and a drop of sweat slipped down his cheeks, but the strength of the veteran was beyond his imagination, and the battle formation that had just been maintained was shattered by the storm kite in three times and two times.

"Die!"

The storm kite slashed a Qin general again, roared angrily, the momentum was like a rainbow, the murderous aura was soaring, the chariot was like thunder, and it crushed the Qin army by stepping on the smoke and dust.

On the other side, Xin Yuanyan led Wei Wushu and directly inserted into the Qin army with amazing momentum, tearing a hole in the Qin army's defense like opening melons and chopping vegetables.

A terrible scream echoed on the battlefield, and when had these soldiers who had not been able to put down their farm tools have seen such a tragic scene, some soldiers could not bear it, and directly held on to their weapons and vomited, and then were pierced in the throat by the enemy's weapons.

Seeing this, the remaining soldiers could only endure the discomfort and desperately fight with the enemy.

The entire battlefield is like a huge grinding plate, constantly strangling the flesh and blood of the soldiers, and it will not change because of the will of any soldier.

"Crossbowmen, attack!"

With Zhao Kuo's order, five thousand strong crossbowmen raised their bows and crossbows, and the cold arrows were aimed at the Qin army, exuding a terrifying coldness.

"Whoosh" Five thousand crossbow arrows shot out violently, cutting out fiery red tails in the sky, and falling towards the Qin army like meteorites.

"Puff puff!"

The crossbow arrow pierced through the battle clouds, and the speed was barely weakened much, and it instantly submerged into the chest of the Qin army, and the blood flowers bloomed one after another, and a large open space appeared in the Qin army.

South Korea is known for its crossbows, and the crossbow arrows used by strong crossbowmen are all specially made, which have extremely strong penetration and armor-piercing capabilities, even large shields can penetrate.

It is said that the strong crossbowmen at their peak could even attack without physical crossbow arrows, and the lethality was extremely amazing, so Wu Anjun would take the lead in destroying the strong crossbowmen in the Battle of Yique, causing Korea to lose its inheritance, and it has not been restored until now.

"South Korea's strong crossbowmen can't be allowed to use their full strength." Si Li said in a deep voice, "Summons the order, assault the coalition army, and forcibly destroy the crossbowmen." ”

Layers of orders were conveyed, and soon reached Juan's ears.

"Soldiers, kill with me!"

With a loud roar, the spear flicked, and the front arrow array was covered, and 20,000 cavalry pierced into the coalition army like a sharp sword, rushing straight to the strong crossbowmen.

"The chariot is resisted, don't give the Qin cavalry a chance to run." Zhao Kuo immediately commanded the army.

The Han and Wei coalition forces did not have formed cavalry, so they could only rely on chariot formations to block the cavalry.

However, today's cavalry of the Qin army is not comparable to that of the past, and their strength has reached the level of elite cavalry equipped with saddles and stirrups, and the chariot is left behind at a single turn.

"Shoot me the arrows!" Seeing that he couldn't stop it, Zhao Kuo ordered.

The strong crossbowmen suddenly raised their arms, and a dense rain of arrows shrouded towards the Qin cavalry, and in an instant, hundreds of cavalry fell from their horses.

"Leave it alone, rush me!" A hideous smile appeared on her face.

With the speed of the cavalry, at most two waves of arrows can rush in front of the crossbowmen, and when the time comes, it will be a torture.
