Battle of Changping Chapter 089 The Chaotic Qin Front Suddenly Slashed

It was too late to say that it was too fast, because of the spear, the Qin army had fallen to the ground, and the follow-up cavalry could not fill the position at the first time, so a vacancy was naturally exposed in front of Zhao Jun's eyes.

As the vanguard of Zhao Jun's cavalry, Zhao Wei naturally quickly discovered this opportunity. Turning the horse's head slightly, he saw the weak point of the Qin army and rushed away first, and the Zhao army behind him also followed quite tacitly.

With a long knife in his hand, his body was slightly lower, and he rode in quickly.

only heard a "poof", and the cavalry of the Qin army who rushed to fill the position were already hated under the sword of the chief general of the Zhao army......

Drawing his sword, he stepped forward to block the long sword that another Qin soldier had just attacked, and then pushed the long sword back, and used both hands to exert his strength together, using the speed of the horse to press the sword and the sword into the body, and another Qin soldier hated the knife.

And several Zhao pawns around the main general also cooperated with each other, each with their own gains, and the Qin army array, which was unable to react, was quickly torn open by the elite armored cavalry of the Zhao army.

The cavalry of Zhao State, the strongest in the world, really lived up to its reputation, and as soon as it appeared, it gave the Qin army a dull blow.

The proud military formation of the Qin army was easily torn apart like a paper tiger in front of the elite cavalry of the Zhao army.

The swords met, and in just one round, the Qin army then paid the price of thousands of people.

Seeing that the Zhao army was about to chisel through the middle of the Qin army, once the Zhao army was chiseled through the line, the consequences would be unimaginable, and it was very likely that all the 50,000 troops would be explained here.

The Qin army is not an incompetent army in the end, it can always burst out with stronger combat power in critical moments, and it always uses "heroic" characters to stand up. The cavalry commander Yingyi is such a character.

In the face of such a critical moment, Yingyi immediately made a decision, and took his own soldiers to rush to the elite cavalry of the Zhao army.

And the Qin army in front of Zhao Junjingjia also used their lives to successfully delay their horse speed, and soon, Yingyi had already faced Zhao Wei, under the competition between the two, Zhao Wei, who was tall and tall, was actually in a weak position (similar to Dian Wei and better at foot combat), but with the cooperation of the pro-soldiers, the two armies fought back and forth for a while.

And as the battle continued, the speed of Zhao's horse slowly slowed down.

Speed is the key to the survival and defeat of the Zhao cavalry!

Once the battle is scorched, it is the loss of the advantage over the enemy.

Zhao Kuo, who stood on the high platform of the Chinese army, obviously understood this truth very well. This battle has already taken a great advantage, and if it continues to fight, I am afraid that it will be disadvantageous to my own army. What's more, it's time to trim up.

Immediately, Daxu issued an order: Mingjin withdrew his troops.

Immediately, the sound of clanging came from the rear of Zhao Jun.

When Zhao Wei heard this, he immediately exerted his strength, threw out several short spears, forced Yingyi and his own soldiers back, and then commanded the army and slowly retreated.

In the first round of the battle, the battle lasted for more than an hour, and finally ended with the Zhao army losing 2,000 soldiers, while the Qin army lost about 6,000 soldiers.

Needless to say, the two armies returned to the camp for dinner, but Wang Yi and Yingyi looked at the battle damage in their hands, and they couldn't help but feel a pain in their hearts. In half a day, more than 5,000 soldiers were lost, this is the most elite cavalry in the whole army!

I still fight more and less.

The two looked at each other, and they both saw the worry in each other's hearts.

"Let's go straight on!" Wang Yi sighed lightly.

Of course, Yingyi understands what Wang Yi said, but is it only half a day before she has to show her hole cards?

After a little silence, Yingyi finally clasped her fists with both hands and said, "Yes, the last general will arrange it." ”

That's right, what Wang Ji wants to dispatch is one of the hole cards that the Qin army relies on to become famous - the crossbow!

The car crossbow is actually a simplified version of the bed crossbow, although it does not have the range and power of the bed crossbow, it is much lighter than the bed crossbow and can be adjusted at any time. And because it is tied to the chariot, the recoil is borne by the chariot, so it is much more powerful than ordinary crossbow arrows.

And the strongest record of the crossbow is the battle between Meng Tian and the Huns in history, the crossbow directly beheaded 100,000 Huns under the horse for thousands of years, and its power can be seen.

Of course, compared with the Mengtian period, today's crossbow is much inferior in both quantity and power, otherwise the Qin army would not cherish it and use it as a hole card.

For the hole cards at this time, both Wang Yi and Yingyi are actually unwilling. Because the earlier the hole cards are played, the worse his effect is, Zhao Jun will definitely try his best to adjust after learning of his change of moves, in order to invalidate his hole cards.

The reason why Wang Yi still proposed that Ying Yi finally recognized the crossbow to resist the enemy, the reason is very simple, because the crossbow has a natural restraint on the elite cavalry of the Zhao army who has just been in the limelight! The kind of restraint that borders on incomprehension.

If it is said that the crossbow is not useful for the general cavalry, whether it is the archer or the light cavalry, after all, the cavalry comes and goes like the wind, and the crossbow cannot catch up no matter how convenient it is. Only for the elite cavalry like Zhao Jun, which is quite close to the heavy cavalry, it has a considerable restraint effect.

Although Zhao Jun's elite cavalry is powerful, his limitations are also quite obvious!

First, because of the heavy armor, both the war horse and the knight are actually under great pressure in the battle, even if the war horse and the knight are the best of the best, but they are still not durable to fight, which is also one of the important reasons why Zhao Kuoming Jin withdrew his troops;

Second, although the speed of the elite cavalry is not slow, but because the weight is too heavy, because of inertia, once the direction is determined, it is difficult to change lanes in the middle, far less flexible than the light cavalry, in the battle on it, the main general of the Zhao army can only slightly turn the horse's head to fine-tune the direction, but can not come and go like the wind.

Such shortcomings, especially the second point, directly lead to the natural restraint of the ballista. Like a chariot, although it is not as flexible as the light cavalry, it is also flexible in adjustment, and the speed is not slower than the adjustment of the cavalry.

Just put a row of crossbow carts on the route of the Zhao army's elite cavalry attack.

Like a torrent of steel, Zhao Junjing's cavalry was not a modern steel giant after all, once he encountered the arm-thick crossbow arrow on his way......

The fine armor of the Qin army is not easy to defend against even a short spear, how can the fine armor of the Zhao army be defended?

The consequences are beautiful to think about.

Originally, Wang Yi and Ying Yi still wanted to hide such a big killing weapon, and wait for the decisive battle to give Zhao Jun a "surprise", but they didn't expect that their cavalry would be shattered into scum when they touched Zhao Jun's cavalry!

Some people may ask why they don't learn Zhao Jun's tactics?

The selection of the war horse armor may be able to be made up quickly, but the training and practice of tactics requires a lot of time.

Don't underestimate the technique of throwing a spear, the waist, body, and arms exert force at the same time, or on the bumpy war horse, this is not the most difficult, more than a thousand spears can be thrown to an area in a concentrated manner, neither fighting each other, nor leaving a large blank, this is where the difficulty lies.

What's more, even if Zhao Jun is familiar with the tactics, even if he learns them, it is difficult to guarantee that Zhao Jun has already cracked them. That would be even more doomed.

Since Zhao Jun's tactics could not be learned, he could only use his own methods to deal with the enemy. And the few hole cards left in his hand are the crossbows, which just restrained the elite cavalry of the Zhao army.

Out of this card, I am a little sorry for myself and my subordinates.
