Chapter 696: Crushing of Strength
Castle.
Qin Wangji, Bai Qi, Fan Ju, Wei Ran, Lü Buwei and others all stood at the head of the city, looking around, along the entire turbulent water, wolf smoke was billowing out, and I don't know how many beacon towers were ignited.
The sound of fierce fighting came from afar, and the air was full of the breath of slaughter, and even the turbulent water was faintly red.
"The Zhao army has launched a general attack." Wei Ran said in a deep voice.
They had expected this general attack, and if they were Zhao Jun, they would also choose to cut off the enemy's wings first, and then target the enemy's main force.
It's just that they didn't expect this general offensive to come so quickly.
"If our army can win this battle, it will successfully turn the tide of the battle, if it fails......" Fan Ju suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking.
But everyone understood what Fan Ju meant, if the Qin army was defeated, the turbulent defense line would be completely lost, and the only way for the Qin army to retreat to Wuguan, analyze the city, and defend the middle line.
That was the last line of defense in Guanzhong.
Geographically speaking, the city is located in the plain, without the mountains to rely on, and it is not a heroic city in the world, and the advantages that the turbulent water it relies on can provide are limited, and it is not an easy place to defend and difficult to attack.
The reason why the Qin army has been unwilling to give up the city and retreat to Wuguan is to be able to have one more line of defense and one more buffer zone.
No one can guarantee that Wuguan will definitely be able to stop Zhao Jun.
But as long as the city is still there, Wuguan will definitely not be lost, and the Zhao army will not be able to attack Guanzhong.
Of course, there is another reason that all the way south from Yucheng is Nanjun, which is also the location of the former capital of Chu, which is the most prosperous place in Qin except Guanzhong.
Once the city is lost, Nanjun will directly face the attack of the coalition forces.
The state of Qin was reluctant to give up Nanjun.
Bai Qi looked at the Zhao Junshuai banner that was faintly visible in the distance, and his right hand subconsciously pressed on the hilt of the sword, and his cold eyes exuded endless killing intent.
"The king, the generals, and the soldiers are all ready." Xin Wu climbed the city wall, quickly walked in front of everyone, and said with his fists clenched.
"King, the city is in danger, you go back and wait first." Bai Qi turned to Qin Wangji and said.
"Okay, the widow will go back and wait for the good news of Wu Anjun." Qin Wangji nodded, turned around and went down the city.
"Go according to the plan." Bai Qi's gaze swept over everyone's faces one by one, and finally ordered.
"No." Everyone clasped their fists and saluted, stepped down the city wall in turn, and led their respective legions to the battlefield.
"Kill the enemy with this king!" Finally, Bai Qi boarded the chariot and led the Qin army towards the Zhao army camp.
……
"Bai Qi really chose to attack our army!" Zhao Kuo looked at the Qin army's battle flag that was getting closer and closer, and ordered, "Beat the drum."
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
The powerful soldiers stood in front of the war drums, waving their arms vigorously, and the heavy drum sound resounded through the heavens and the earth, and all the soldiers were in high spirits, grasping their weapons with both hands, ready to fight at any time.
In the sky, the war clouds quickly condensed, and then continued to roll, becoming thicker and heavier, and finally condensed into a huge crescent moon, and the moonlight sprinkled down, like wisps of gold thread falling on the soldiers, and the morale of the army began to rise.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
All the soldiers shouted loudly, the sound shook the sky, and the turbulent water stirred up waves more than a foot high.
After receiving the order, the sword and shield soldiers carrying the large shield in the center began to advance slowly, and the speed of the cavalry on both wings continued to increase, gradually distancing themselves from the large army.
The Qin army stopped on the shore of the turbulent water, waiting for the Zhao army to rush over.
Over the years, the cavalry of Zhao State has laid a mark of invincibility on the battlefield, and even Bai Qi has to admit it.
The Qin army lined up on the banks of the turbulent water, which was able to use the river water to effectively weaken the strength of the Zhao army and gain an advantage for the Qin army.
If the Qin army is victorious, the turbulent water can still block the way of the Zhao army, buying more time for the Qin army to kill the enemy.
Bai Qi did not send cavalry, most of the cavalry of the Qin army was taken away by Wang Jian and others, and there were only 10,000 Qiang cavalry left around him, which was not the opponent of the Zhao army at all, even if he sent out
It's to die.
Bai Qi ordered them to wander outside, looking for opportunities, as long as the Zhao army was in decline, they would attack immediately, and if the Zhao army had been strong, they would choose to avoid the battle.
This is also to prevent the Qiang cavalry from rebelling against the water, or surrendering, affecting the Qin army.
Although Bai Qi had not yet received the news that the Qiang cavalry led by Juan had surrendered to the Zhao army, it did not affect his distrust of the Qiang cavalry.
Even if Sima Cuo has trained the Qiang cavalry very well, without experiencing the baptism of several wars, the Qiang cavalry cannot really change.
"Shoot the arrows!" Zhao Kuo ordered.
The Shooting Battalion stood on either side of Zhao Kuo, with tall bed crossbows in the first two rows, three rows in the middle holding crossbow machines, and bows and arrows at the end.
After receiving Zhao Kuo's order, all the soldiers began to attack at the same time, and the arrows burst out, and after flying into the air, the arrows began to split, some split into two arrows, some into three arrows, and the top part of the soldiers could even split into five arrows.
Half of the sky was covered in a dense rain of arrows, and then poured down towards the Qin army.
Bai Qi's pupils shrank, his hands were subconsciously clenched, and Zhao Jun's long-range attack legion was stronger!
At the same time, the Qin army's bow and crossbow battalions also launched an attack, and the arrows of both sides collided and intertwined in the sky, sparks bloomed, and arrows continued to land, but more arrows still followed the previous trajectory, attacking each other.
Both sides raised the big shield at the same time, and the Qin army suddenly sounded a series of explosions, and under the continuous blow of the arrow rain, the big shield exploded, shooting the Qin army behind into a hedgehog.
A smile appeared on Zhao Kuo's face, and a rain of arrows fell, and the number of Qin troops that fell was at least ten times that of Zhao's army.
Bai Qi was able to create an elite army of bows and crossbows in such a short period of time, and even had the ability to strike at ultra-long range, which was already very strong, but the time given to him was too short after all.
A person's energy is limited, and if he has to grasp all places, he is destined to not be able to do everything.
The Zhao army did not stop because of the turbulent water, Le Cheng and Tou Man led the Zhao army across the turbulent water, and at the same time, the Qin army's arrow rain also attacked the two armies.
The Youyun Iron Cavalry did not dodge or dodge, relying entirely on its own defense to resist the Qin army's arrow rain, no one fell off their horses, and after reaching the charging distance, everyone began to accelerate at the same time, rushing towards the Qin army with great momentum.
"Let's all die." Tou Man roared, and the black-red light bloomed from the long knife, like a meteorite cutting through the sky, instantly smashing the Qin army in front of him to pieces.
This was the first time he led his troops into battle, and everyone questioned him, but King Zhao overrode public opinion and let him lead a legion alone.
And told him that if he behaved well enough, after this battle, he could be the commander of the legion and lead a legion all the time.
Touman didn't know why Zhao Kuo valued him, but he knew that if he wanted to get ahead, this was his only chance.
This battle is his dragon gate, as long as he crosses it, his future is infinitely broad in the future.
The Hebei cavalry under the command of Touman are basically the former Huns, and their cavalry and archery level is still above the Qiang people.
They have only one goal, to kill the Qin people and make meritorious deeds!
As long as they killed or captured a Qin soldier, they could become Zhao people, have household registration, own houses and land, and be able to marry wives and have children.
If you kill two or more Qin soldiers, they will also be able to obtain a knighthood, have a bigger mansion, more land, more rewards, and maybe even a fief.
They don't have any concept of home and country, they used to be Huns, and now they are trying to become Zhao people.
Because it's better to be a Zhao person.
They don't want to go back to the old days when they didn't have enough food and clothing.
"Kill!" Tou Man took the lead, rushing into the Qin army's formation with an unrivaled momentum, and then tearing apart the Qin army's defense line like a withering and decaying force.
The cavalry behind him rushed in along the cracked place, smashing to the left and right, constantly expanding the flaws of the Qin army.
Qin Jun's face was hideous, and he desperately blocked Zhao Jun with a big shield, but
The heavy shield looked extremely thin at this moment, and with a wave of Touman's big sword, a row of shields exploded, and the Qin army behind it was split into two, and blood sprayed out, staining the ground red.
The commander of the Qin army kept directing the soldiers to step forward, but he shrank behind.
Zhao Jun, a young player, is too terrifying, even if he steps forward, it is impossible to block the opponent, and he may not even be able to stop it for a round.
He is just an ordinary Gangyuan Realm martial artist, even if he is considered an ordinary kind in the Gangyuan Realm, it is absolutely impossible to be an opponent of the Transcendent Realm, even if the other party is suppressed by Zhanyun.
Everyone knows that the transcendent realm is not invincible on the battlefield, and it can't even be highlighted much in many cases. But when there is no corresponding powerhouse on your side, you will immediately feel the power of the powerhouse of the transcendent realm.
At this moment, there is only one transcendent realm powerhouse in the Qin army, even with the addition of the deputy general of the Black Armor Army and the commander of the Feilian Army, there are only three of the two pseudo-transcendent realm powerhouses who rely on the military soul.
Far from being Zhao Jun's opponent.
"Chop Zhao Jun's horse legs, as long as Zhao Jun can't run, we won." The commander of the Qin army ordered loudly.
What he said was not wrong, but shrinking in the rear, how to cut the legs of the Qin army's horses? And how to make Zhao Jun unable to run?
The generals of the Zhao army rushed to the front, on the other hand, their own generals, they didn't know where to hide, only the voice came, the Qin army had long had no belief in confronting the Zhao army, even if they could muster up the courage and desperately cut off the legs of the Zhao army, they would be quickly killed by the Zhao army.
Hearing the voice, Touman suddenly raised his head and looked in the direction of the commander of the Qin army, the commander of the Qin army instantly felt a tightness in his heart, as if he was being targeted by an ancient fierce beast, and he trembled all over.
"Die!" Touman took out the longbow from behind his back, aimed at the commander of the Qin army, and as soon as his fingers loosened, the arrow flew out instantly, hitting the opponent's chest, and the huge force took the commander of the Qin army out of the air, and did not stop until he pierced through the third soldier.
"Huh!" Touman put away his bow and arrows, looked at Bai Qi's direction, stretched out his tongue and licked his lips, a hideous smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, this is the number two person in the Qin army, and he is also the real commander of the Qin army, King Zhao attaches great importance to him, and even adjusted the reward for killing Bai Qi to be the same as killing King Qin.
"When Lao Tzu kills Bai Qi, who in the entire Zhao Kingdom dares to look down on Lao Tzu?" Touman's eyes gradually became crazy, the big knife rolled with black and red light, and the crazy evil qi strangled the enemies around him, and killed him towards Bai Qi's location.
"Huh?" Bai Qi immediately found that there was a problem on the right flank, and just wanted to send troops to support, but there was also a problem on the left flank, and Le Cheng had already led Yan Yun Tiecai to kill the Qin army in front of him, and was about to approach the position of the bow and crossbow corps.
Crossbowmen do not have any melee ability, as long as they are approached by the Zhao army, the consequences can be imagined.
"Hahaha, the Qin army is so vulnerable!" Le Cheng laughed.
The former Qin army was invincible in the world, and Sima Cuo Baiqi and others were even more invincible, destroying Bashu, beating the Chu State and moving the capital, and overwhelming the six eastern countries.
During the battle of Yanhe, he and Lian Po were even more afraid of the strength of the Qin army and did not dare to face the battle.
Now he knew that there was no such thing as an army that would always win.
In the past, Qi Zhi's skill attack and Wei Wushu were invincible in the world, and finally declined, and then the Qin army swept the world, and the countries could not be the same, and now they are also pressed and beaten by the Zhao army.
The Youyun Iron Cavalry became more and more courageous the more they fought, the rich black aura almost completely wrapped the body, and the moonlight sprinkled on the armor, like a point of light flowing, and the tough breath was about to break through the battle clouds of the Qin army.
The rain of arrows of the Qin army continued to fall on the Youyun Iron Cavalry, bursting out a series of sparks, and the speed of the Youyun Iron Cavalry was not affected in any way, and not a single soldier fell because of this.
The Youyun Iron Cavalry didn't even have the ability to use the force field to distort, and with a single eggshell defense, it could block the Qin army's arrow rain.
These ordinary bows and arrows are not enough to tickle them.
Whoosh!
At this moment, an incomparably sharp sound of breaking the air came from his ears, and the Shadow Cloud Iron Rider instantly sensed the danger, and stimulated his talent to the extreme, while swinging his horse lance and sweeping towards the flying light arrows.
"Strike of the will?" An arrow of light shot into Lecheng's shoulder, but failed to shoot it through, but
Lecheng felt a faint willpower rush into his brain.
The movements of the Youyun Iron Cavalry who were hit by the arrow suddenly stagnated, and even the running speed slowed down, and the surrounding Qin troops saw this, seized the opportunity, and rushed towards the Youyun Iron Cavalry one after another.
Many iron cavalry were dragged off their horses by the Qin army, or their legs were cut off by the Qin army, and they fought with them, and the casualties of the iron cavalry increased instantly.
The smile on Le Cheng's face disappeared without a trace, and his gloomy face was almost able to squeeze out the water.
The Shadow Cloud Iron Cavalry has extremely strong defense, and it is immune to almost all ordinary attacks, even the Army Soul Legion can resist it, but it has a weakness, that is, it cannot be immune and defend against will attacks.
The will attack completely has no effect on the distortion of the visual field, even if it is displayed in the form of a light arrow, the force field distortion cannot distort the speed of the light arrow, and the eggshell defense is a magic skill for defending against entity attacks, but it has almost no effect on the will attack.
If it weren't for the Qin Army's bow and crossbow corps' weak will, and the Youyun Iron Cavalry itself had a strong will, this wave of arrow rain would not be as simple as falling more than a hundred soldiers, and it would be possible to lose nearly a thousand.
Although bows and arrows alone could not achieve such great lethality, the Youyun Iron Cavalry was surrounded by Qin troops who were eyeing them fiercely, and as long as they showed the slightest flaw, these Qin troops would rush up and bite them to pieces.
