Chapter 687: Defensive Array

The soldiers were very fond of this kind of confrontational and fierce sport, and they won the rankings and got the money, so they signed up one after another, determined to get the rankings.

At this time, the two teams on the field were competing fiercely, and in just a few breaths, Keju changed several people, and the soldiers watching around shouted excitedly, eager to rush up to replace them.

At this moment, the arrows that covered the sky suddenly appeared in the sky and fell towards the ground like meteors.

"Enemy attack! Get out of the way!" Zhao Kuo was shocked in his heart and hurriedly shouted.

Everyone looked up at the sky, and there was no time to think at this time, so they could only subconsciously look for cover, or rely on instinct to dodge.

Puff puff!

A few unlucky eggs were shot by arrows and closed their eyes in despair.

They thought they were finished, but after a while, they heard the noise around them, and realized that they were not dead, and when they opened their eyes, they found that the arrows had only penetrated the armor and had not hurt themselves.

Only the most unlucky one was injured and did not die.

"Great King, I'm afraid this was done by the Qin army." Liu Ping picked up the arrow on the ground and said in a deep voice.

"Launched an ultra-long-range attack so quickly, worthy of Wu Anjun." Zhao Kuo's face was a little ugly, and he signaled that the game would not continue, everyone could leave, and he would also go back to discuss things.

"The lethality is a bit low, and if the short-range attack is also this lethality, then the actual effect of this legion is not very large. In addition to this, this legion has a fatal drawback, using physical arrows. A rain of arrows came down, except for causing some panic to our army, it did not bring any losses, but the Qin army lost nearly 10,000 arrows, even if the Qin army's family has a great cause, it can't withstand such consumption." Liu Ping said.

When the Zhao army harassed the Qin army, they used internal qi arrows, although the physical arrows could also be used, but it was not necessary, it was a little bit to save a little, and it would take a lot of manpower and material resources to transport it from Zhao to the front line, so it was better to save it and transport food.

Qin's arrow reserves cannot be as rich as Zhao's, and there may not be much of a problem in a short period of time, but after a long time, it will inevitably be unable to support it.

And fighting a war is also cost-effective, if the enemy army killed has not shot out the arrow is valuable, then the arrow should not be shot, not to mention that the Qin army did not kill an enemy after a wave of arrows.

How many arrows to shoot properly, how much to lose.

"If we shoot at the Qin army, will we be able to speed up the Qin army's bow and arrow consumption?" Zhao Kuo suddenly thought of a point, the internal qi arrows of the shooting battalion and the strong crossbowmen consume the will and internal qi, and shooting a few more arrows can be used as usual training, and it can also improve the strength.

However, the Qin army's arrows are less than one, and if it can speed up the consumption of Qin army's arrows, it will be very cost-effective for the Zhao army.

「…… Possibly." Liu Ping nodded.

"Then shoot at the Qin army, and the shooting battalion and the strong crossbowmen will be separated, and they will take turns attacking the Qin army. The widow wants to see how long the Qin army can last." Zhao Kuo said in a deep voice.

"No." Liu Ping said.

On the way, Zhao Kuo met the guards sent by Le Yi to call him.

Le Yi also knew that the Qin army had just shot a rain of arrows towards the camp, so he immediately called a meeting of the soldiers.

Soon, Zhao Kuo came to the handsome camp, walked to the top and sat down, and said directly, "Let's talk about it."

"Your Majesty, according to statistics, in just a quarter of an hour, the Qin army shot three waves of arrows at our army, killing one soldier and wounding three soldiers. Although the casualties were not large, the morale of the soldiers was greatly damaged, and I am afraid that a rain of arrows will fall from the sky at any time." Le Yi said.

"Is there a solution?" Zhao Kuo asked.

"Not yet, but I'll find a way to do it." Le Yi shook his head, he thought of several ways, but none of them were universal, and at the same time, they could be achieved in a short period of time.

"Look, my lord." At this time, Tian Dan walked in from outside, clenched his fists and said, "The last general has just counterattacked the Qin army with the archery battalion and strong crossbowmen, but a battle formation rose above the Qin army and stopped most of the arrows."

"A battle formation that covers all the Qin army? How could it be in such a short time

Open in the room." Lecheng was shocked.

Although it didn't take much time for the battle array to open, the arrows fell faster, and by the time people saw the arrows, it was too late.

"It's indeed a battle formation that covers the entire Qin army's camp, but it's not like it just started." Tian Dan was also a little puzzled, he originally wanted to try a few more times, but Le Yi sent someone to call him, and he came back.

"I'll observe with you later." Le Yi said.

"Okay." Tian Shan nodded.

Everyone discussed for a while, but there was no result, so everyone came to the outside of the camp together, preparing to attack the Qin army.

Since the Qin army already has a perfect method of guarding against long-range attacks, there is no need for the Zhao army to spend energy on re-researching, just copy it and use it.

"Shoot the arrows!" Tian Dan ordered.

Soon, tens of thousands of light arrows appeared in the sky and shot towards the Qin army camp, just when the light arrows were about to fall into the Qin army camp, a strong earthy yellow light bloomed from the camp, and the war clouds rolled, blocking most of the light arrows, leaving only a few through the war clouds, and it was difficult to cause any more damage.

When all the light arrows fell, the battle clouds over the Qin army gradually subsided, and after a minute or two, they completely disappeared.

"A solidified battle formation? Not really." A light flashed in Le Yi's eyes, and he seemed to have discovered the weakness of the Qin army's defensive array, "Give me a bow."

The guard next to him hurriedly took off the bow and arrow on his back and handed it to Le Yi.

Le Yi stretched out his bow and set up an arrow, but he didn't aim it, and randomly shot an arrow in the direction of the Qin army's camp, and the arrow gradually disappeared into the sky, but the Transcendent Realm military generals were still able to lock on.

At the moment when the arrow fell above the Qin army, the defensive array covering the Qin army's camp rose again, blocking the arrow that Le Yi had shot.

"Bai Qi didn't know what method he used, so he changed the defensive battle formation into a large formation that was automatically maintained for a long time, which would be hidden in normal times and would automatically defend when attacked. However, the last general had already discovered the weakness of the Qin army's large array. No matter how many arrows are fired, even if there is only one arrow, the Qin army's defensive array will all be opened."

"The amount of internal qi consumed by this large array is massive and cannot be maintained for a long time, so it can only be hidden in normal times and manifest when it is attacked. As long as we keep attacking the Qin army and consume the strength of the Great Array, it won't be long before the Great Array collapses." Le Yi said with a smile.

Qin Jun's idea is indeed ingenious, but at present, it is still a little too rough, and maybe it can be improved and used on Zhao Jun. However, how to improve Le Yi is still only a little idea, and it needs to be slowly experimented later.

In the Qin army camp, the smile on Bai Qi's face had long since disappeared, and was replaced by a face like ice.

The big array that he had been studying for more than a month was cracked by Zhao Jun like this!

"Will ...... General!" The general of the Qin army looked at Bai Qi with a winch, for fear that the other party would not be happy to give him a sword, "Are we still shooting?"

"You go back first." Bai Qi waved his hand, no matter how angry he was, he didn't have the habit of spilling his anger on ordinary soldiers.

"There are still two problems that need to be solved now, one is the internal qi arrow, the consumption of the physical arrow is too great, and the lethality is not good, so it can't last long at all, and the talent of the internal qi arrow must come out in order to constantly harass Zhao Jun." Bai Qi muttered.

It is not his character to have revenge and not take revenge.

He was disgusted by Zhao Jun for more than a month, and he had to go back disgusted.

"The second is the problem of defending the Great Array." Bai Qi looked up at the sky, Zhao Jun was still shooting arrows, there were only one or two arrows at a time, but the big array had been maintained because of these two arrows.

In desperation, Bai Qi could only turn off the battle array.

"We have to find a way to adapt the overall defense to a local defense, and the smaller the range of the triggered defense, the less internal qi will be consumed. Maybe you can change the Great Array from consuming internal qi to consuming heaven and earth aura, internal qi is limited, but heaven and earth aura is infinite." Bai Qi thought as he walked back.

However, his energy alone is really limited, and the past month or so of studying the defense array and the ultra-long-range attack legion at the same time has exhausted him, even if he is exhausted to death now, he can't do it

It can be studied in three directions at the same time.

Sima Cuo was still training Qiang Qi and didn't have time to help him.

Qin Wangji finally agreed to train the Qiang cavalry according to the training methods of the Qin army, and Bai Qi made it very clear to him that he would either strengthen the training of the Qiang cavalry or send the Qiang cavalry back directly.

He can accept a legion of average strength but obedientness, but he will never accept a disobedient legion, even if he is strong, he would rather give such a legion to the other side.

Qiang Qi naturally will not be obedient, but when they arrive in the Qin State, it is no longer up to them to decide whether they are obedient or not.

Bai Qi didn't attack them before, it wasn't that their strength was so strong that even Bai Qi needed to be jealous, it was just because Qin Wangji didn't give an order.

With Qin Wangji's order, Bai Qi didn't have any worries, and after giving Sima the wrong order, he handed over the training to Sima wrong.

The Qiang cavalry originally united to resist, but after being easily suppressed by Sima Cuo with 10,000 Longxi cavalry, they became much more obedient and began to cooperate with the training of the Qin army.

In fact, even if Sima Cuo didn't train Qiang Qi, it would be difficult to help him.

Sima Cuo is already old, and his thinking and reaction ability have not decreased by one and a half compared to his peak.

Sima Cuo back then, even Bai Qi didn't dare to guarantee that he could defeat it. Now, Bai Qi can already feel that he has opened up a significant gap between the other party.

"Go and call Wang Ji and Wang Qian." Bai Qi thought about it for a while and decided to hand over the matter of training the internal qi arrow to Wang Di. As for Wang Qian, there is still a long way to go, and you can learn from the side.

It didn't take long for Wang Ji and Wang Jian to rush over, clasp their fists and say, "General."

"The ultra-long-range attack legion has been completed, and there is still an internal qi arrow left, and I plan to leave it to you to complete." Bai Qi said to Wang Di.

"The Last General...... I don't know how to complete the Inner Qi Arrow." Wang Di said.

"It's very simple, you can first ask the soldiers to put their will on the arrow, wait until everyone is proficient, and then take the arrow away, solidify the vitality with the will, form the arrow, and then ......," Bai Qi said.

"......" Wang Yi was silent, where is this simple? No single step can be done by a human being, okay! That's why you'll find it simple.

"The Last General...... Work hard to get it done." In the end, Wang Yi still agreed with a bitter face.

"If you don't know, you can come and ask me." Bai Qi said.

"No." Wang Di said.

Bai Qi looked at Wang Jian again: "Don't lead the troops to fight against the Zhao army during this time, leave the battle to Xuan." You don't have a chance to command a war with more than 100,000 people for the time being, and the following wars are no longer a problem for you, and you won't gain much experience if you continue to fight. Next, you will follow Ben and Wang Yi to learn how to develop battle formations and train legion talents."

"The battle between the two armies is not only the commander's command ability, but also the elite level of the soldiers, logistics, strategy, training, terrain, weather, people's hearts, adaptability, etc. What we have to do as commanders is to strengthen the strengths of our army and make up for the shortcomings of our army. Weaken the enemy's strengths and exploit them. If you can do that, there are few people in the world who are your opponents."

"The last will be remembered." Wang Jian said solemnly.

Bai Qi took Wang Ji and Wang Jian to the Shuai camp, and Bai Qi took out two books from the table, one was bamboo slips and the other was paper, and handed them to Wang Qian.

"These are my experiences in commanding troops for so many years, you can learn from them, but you can't follow my path, my path is only I can walk, if you go...... It's going to die a terrible death. and do not do as I do. Killing too much...... It's hurtful." Bai Qi said slowly.

He doesn't have any opinions, not only Wang Qian, but Wang Yi has also read these manuals, but Wang Ji has limited talent, he doesn't learn much, and even fewer dare to use them on the battlefield.

"General Thanks, General." Wang Jian bowed heavily, this is the grace of preaching.

For the next period of time, the battlefield returned to calm.

The Qin army was busy studying the defense array and the internal qi arrows, while training the Qiang cavalry.

Zhao Jun was also busy studying the defensive array

Zhao Jun's research speed is much faster than that of Qin Jun, Zhao Kuo, Le Yi, Tian Dan, Wei Wuji, Qin Kai, Pang Xuan...... A large group of people got together, and soon they studied the principle almost completely, and then they formed a model, constantly perfected it, and then applied it to the whole army.

In just half a month, Zhao Jun came up with a strengthened version of the defense array.

No matter how many arrows the enemy fires, only the large array within a radius of one meter will trigger, and the large array in other places will still be dormant and will hardly consume energy.

Moreover, Zhao Jun's defensive array does not need to consume internal qi, and can absorb the aura of heaven and earth on its own.

However, Zhao Jun's research did not stop, Zhao Jun not only had to defend against the Qin army's long-range attacks, but also created long-range attacks that could penetrate the Qin army's defense array.

When the two armies of Qin and Zhao hated each other, Prince Zhu also suffered the biggest blow in his life.

His dad didn't die!

Even if he didn't die, he almost abolished him.

Fortunately, everyone opposed it, and he retained his position as crown prince.

Even so, he lost his qualification to supervise the country and was ordered to return to the East Palace to face the wall.
