Battle of Changping Chapter 035 The cavalry entered lightly and the archers resisted

The Qin army is also worthy of being the most elite unit in the Warring States, and it has already planned for the attack of the Zhao army.

In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire West Bank Barrier was launched like a war machine.

As for the barriers, the Qin army on duty was already in full swing, with the neighing of people, the metal sound of armor rubbing, the creaking of the wooden cart transporting, the collision of arrows carrying and dropping, and the sonorous sound of swords unsheathed.

The Qin army fortress in the mist, like a giant beast that had been awakened, slowly opened his giant eyes, looked at the edge of Zhao Jun not far away, and did not have the slightest fear, but slowly showed its sharp fangs, and then stretched its strong arms, as if to take Zhao Jun into his arms, and then slowly wear and devour it little by little.

Some people were frightened, but no one was afraid.

The Zhao army was just a military exploit in the eyes of the soldiers of the Qin army.

It's just that this attack is obviously different from previous attacks.

The Zhao army's military camp was like a bow of a crescent moon, taking advantage of the early morning mist to shoot three thick and fiery arrows towards the Qin army's Danshui defense line.

The arrow and the shield soon collided, and the collision was a collapse of the sky!

Except for Zhao Kuo, no one knew that the history of China would be completely rewritten from this moment!

"Quick, quick, speed up the river crossing!" Captain Zhao Jun urged his subordinates.

The clattering hooves of the horses almost trampled the Danshui.

The first wave of the Zhao army's attack consisted entirely of cavalry, not a direct attack by the cavalry, but in order to reach the fortress as quickly as possible.

The Zhao army had many cavalry, even soldiers who could not ride horses, they were also brought on horses by the cavalry, with only one goal: to quickly cross the river while the mist was in the mist, interspersed under the Qin army fortress on the west bank, and establish a defensive front and an advance base on the west bank.

Zhao Jun was very fast, and Qin Jun's reaction was not slow.

Soon, a neat roar from the Qin army swept across the sky!

"Wind! Gale! ”

A rain of arrows followed!

Despite the mist, the arrows that the Qin army was proud of were still not vegetarian - since they couldn't do a precise strike, then let's cover it with firepower.

Looking up, the dim sky was like a bunch of locusts passing by, and the triangular arrows were shining with a little cold light under the faint sunlight, like an impenetrable starlight net, enveloping the main force of Zhao Jun's river crossing, which was a suffocating sense of despair.

That's right, the Qin army is to win by quantity.

But all the tidal flats and rivers where there was the sound and figure of the Zhao army did not escape the covering attack of the Qin army's arrows.

The Zhao army, which was still on the march, was simply powerless and unable to fight back.

"Raise your shield, bow your head, and speed through!" On the side, another Zhao military lieutenant whipped his mount while shouting to remind his soldiers to protect themselves.

Sergeant Zhao raised his shield while whipping his seated war horse and charging quickly, so as to quickly escape from the purgatory-like river. This is the way that Zhao Jun has no way to do.

However, Qin's arrows were not vegetarian. Through the mist, a graceful curve was cut through the air, and the arrows fell on the Zhao army's front at great speed. Luckily, the shield was blocked, but more arrows mercilessly pierced through the not-so-heavy armor and pierced straight into the body of Sergeant Zhao.

In the clanging collision, the screams, falling water, cries for help, and roars suddenly became a mess.

The originally clear Dan water was quickly stained red with blood.

looked at the comrades who kept falling into the water in front of him, and listened to the constant cries for help in his ears, saying that he was not distressed was fake. But there is no way, no matter Qin or Zhao, whoever wants to attack must face the difficulty of "Danshui".

There is no way, rushing through is the only way to live! Landing on the beach has always been the most difficult subject in warfare, and this was the case in the era of cold weapons, where the defenders almost had a huge advantage, and as long as they were not destroyed by a surprise attack, it would definitely be a nightmare for the landing force after reacting.

The landing force had no other way but to fill in a path with human lives. And the road filled with the lives of comrades-in-arms will soon be re-suppressed by fire. Therefore, speed is the most important factor for beach-rushing landing.

Come on!

Hurry up! Faster!

Don't hesitate to go any further!

Not only the lieutenants and lieutenants of the Zhao military colonels on the side urged the soldiers to move forward, but the adjutant generals, generals, and even the craftsmen who were still working in the rear were shouting in their hearts.

We all know that speed is the key to attack, but there is resistance from Danshui and a rain of arrows, it is not easy to overcome the fear in my heart, even if it is as strong as Zhao and Qin's army, it is inevitable that they will hesitate a little in such a battle.

Faced with the fear of death, the soldiers inevitably paused, and even the horses under their crotches could be frightened, even though they also knew that it would only be more dangerous to stay.

At this time, the role of the school is reflected.

A sensible general will give the most correct instructions to the soldiers under his command at this time, and a general who takes the lead can also give the best example to the soldiers under his command.

And the reason why the armies of Qin and Zhao are as strong as Xu is obviously that there is no shortage of such generals.

"Follow me!" A roar of anger erupted in Zhao's army.

Immediately afterwards, a white horse jumped out from among the horses, and the man on the horse, dressed in heavy armor, bowed low on the horse's back, holding a shield in one hand to protect the horse's head and his own vital points, and holding a gun in the other hand swept down the scattered arrows around him, and in the face of the dense arrow rain of the Qin army, he took the lead and was about to rush to the west bank.

Obviously, this sentence of "rush with me" that dares to be the first is much more effective than the "rush with me" that is thousands of sentences in the rear.

And the power of example has always been endless, with the captain taking the lead in setting an example, the officers and soldiers of the Zhao Army under his command naturally followed the captain and sprinted.

At the moment when the white horse stepped on the west bank, the cavalry behind them also did the same, bowing down one after another, their legs clamping the horse's belly heavily, and the long whip in their hands also whipped on the horse's ass.

The horse under the crotch also seemed to feel the master's fear of death, of course, it was more likely to succumb to the master's merciless whipping, and under the pain, he immediately became crazy, and his hooves were all in unison, and even the man and the horse sprinted towards the west bank without hesitation.

One, two, three......

More and more Zhao cavalry finally arrived on the west bank of Danshui.

Just when more and more Zhao troops crossed Danshui and the battlefield situation was thriving, the originally thin fog finally couldn't withstand the warm sunlight and gradually dissipated.

With the improvement of visibility, Zhao Jun, who had just crossed the Danshui, faced a more severe test.
