The Battle of Changping Chapter 093 What is it like to go to the battlefield in person
Zhao Kuo, who was supposed to be sitting on the high platform, had already put on his armor neatly, a layer of cloth armor, a layer of leather armor, and a layer of armor made of fine iron, heart goggles, arm guards, and leggings were all prepared, and a long knife was also polished by the soldiers, and finally tied the white cloak.
"Breaking Qin, it's today!" Zhao Kuo, who stood on the high platform again, took the spear handed over by his own soldiers on the side, raised it high, and said loudly to the two thousand elite armored cavalry and three thousand sharp soldiers under the high platform: "All the troops, go with the general to break Qin!" ”
"Kill!" The soldiers in the audience raised their swords one after another, and shouted together with Zhao Kuo.
That's right, Zhao Kuo is going to the battlefield! The kind that fights in person! (Zhao Kuo inherited the body, and the martial arts are still there.) )
Although the generals tried hard to dissuade them, saying that the situation of the army was now favorable, even if they wanted to complete the final blow to the Qin army, they only needed to transfer the elite cavalry, and there was no need for the general to personally enter the battle.
"Time." Zhao Kuo replied indifferently to the generals: "Time is no longer on our army's side. Although the barrier is there, it is a matter of time before it falls, and the road has been cut off, although our army has grain and straw, it can only support it for more than 20 days. It is necessary to take down the enemy in front of you as soon as possible, whether it is to return to the north or to take advantage of the victory to go south, it is necessary and urgent to solve the Qin army in front of you. ”
"The army has been fighting hard for several days, and it is not enough to stimulate the fighting spirit of the whole army if it is not the general himself, and it is not enough to quickly defeat the Qin army in front of him if it does not stimulate the fighting spirit of the whole army." Zhao Kuo continued to add.
For a while, the generals were speechless.
Of course, these words are nothing more than deception.
The real purpose is only known to Zhao Kuo, and even Zhao Wei beside him does not know the intention.
"To maintain Zhao Jun's fighting spirit in despair, there is only bloodshed, a lot of blood, and enough red blood!" (At the end of Chapter 090) Zhao Kuo knows very well that only his own blood is noble enough and red enough, and only by going to the death in person can the Zhao army completely obey his orders in the next battle and continue the battle.
Of course, this is also an important move for Zhao Kuo to win people's hearts and plan for the future - if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger!
Zhao Kuo, who was neatly dressed, soon took the last new force of the Zhao army, 2,000 elite cavalry, 3,000 light cavalry and 10,000 foot soldiers, and slowly boarded the battlefield.
The vanguard army is still the elite cavalry, but Zhao Kuo and Zhao Wei are between the three thousand light cavalry and the elite cavalry, Zhao Kuo knows very well what he will face later, he can go to the battlefield by himself, but he can't send him to death.
Zhao Kuo's big move here naturally did not escape the victory that had been closely observed.
Intuition told Ying Yi that Zhao Jun had played his cards.
Without the slightest hesitation, Ying Yi summoned the lieutenant in charge of the ballista and ordered him to concentrate all the remaining ballista in the army in the middle lane, but behind the second line of defense.
Obviously, until the last moment, Yingyi was still reluctant to show these crossbows.
The Qin army here is moving quickly, but the marching speed of the Zhao army over there is not slow, especially the galloping elite cavalry, which quickly became a bright light on the battlefield under the sunlight.
"Sure enough! Zhao Jun really hid a lot. Ying Ye looked at the elite cavalry of the Zhao army galloping wantonly on the battlefield, and his heart was relieved.
Immediately, Ying Yi ordered: "All the reserves are out, and the whole army will fight!" ”
"Yes!" All the generals agreed in unison.
As he spoke, Ying Yi led all the generals down from the high platform together, and each went to the troops he led, and when Ying Yi gave an order, he wanted to kill the generals.
However, Ying Yi, who was sitting on the tall horse, had his eyes slightly closed, as if nothing had anything to do with him, only two ears, standing high - he was waiting for the sound of the crossbow arrows fired by his ballista to break through the air.
At this time, the elite cavalry of the Zhao army was like no one on the battlefield, and between the horizontal and vertical slashes, thousands of Qin troops had been cut to the ground, and the two lines of defense in front of the Qin army also collapsed.
Just as the Zhao army was preparing to chisel through the Qin army's main formation, capture the Qin army's main general alive, and end the war, an accident happened.
"Buzzing" followed by several "whooshing" sounds, along with the hot air, reached the ears of the elite armored cavalry of the Zhao army.
Especially the elite cavalry who have already experienced it once, they are all too familiar with this kind of noise.
In just an instant, cold sweat had already crawled all over the back of the Zhao Jun knight - where was the sound of the bowstring trembling, nor the sound of arrows breaking through the air, it was clearly the sound of death sung by death.
It's just a pity that although the arrows of the crossbow are not as fast as the speed of sound, at such a close distance, they can't be slower than the speed of sound by a few seconds, and when the cavalry of the Zhao army heard the sound and reacted, it was already too late.
There were a few more "poofs", which were the sound of long crossbow arrows piercing through the cavalry of the Zhao army.
In an instant, the cavalry of the Zhao army, which had just been invincible, suffered heavy losses.
"Order: The cavalry army on the north road, the whole army presses, no matter what the cost, tear a gap for the general!" Zhao Kuo's voice came almost at the same time as the sound of arrows breaking through the air.
"Yes!" The pro-soldier behind him immediately agreed.
Immediately, the big drum in his hand shook wildly, and the horn and drum beat behind him also wanted to make a piece.
That was the signal of the general attack of the Zhao army!
"Attack!" Hearing the sound of his own bow and arrow and the sound of Zhao Jun's horn, Ying Yi, who closed his eyes and recuperated, also opened his eyes instantly, pulled out the long sword in his waist, pointed at the sky, and roared angrily.
Immediately afterwards, the Qin army's side also shook wildly, and the drums and horns resonated. The last 20,000 troops that had been prepared immediately followed Ying Yi and rushed in the direction of the Zhao army.
The general ordered, all the cavalry of the Zhao State in the north knew that it was time to fight hard, including the elite armored cavalry at the forefront.
Behind him was the general, and the elite cavalry did not hesitate at all, and continued to charge against the attack of the crossbow, bound to use their own lives to tear a bloody path for the follow-up army.
Not only the elite cavalry, but also the entire northern battlefield, whether it was the archers, light cavalry, and even the foot soldiers advancing in a phalanx, they all began to attack desperately, almost frantically.
The crossbow suffered heavy losses under the suicide attack of the Zhao army's elite armored cavalry, and the light cavalry of the Zhao army followed actually picked up the broken heavy cavalry armor and put it on another cavalryman. Although a hole was broken, it was able to defend most of the area, and it still went on a rampage. Even if the armor is damaged, a few pieces of armor are a good pair of armor.
Obviously, Zhao Jun is a bit "not martial arts" in doing this, after all, your iron armor can be used together, and things like ballistas can be used again if they are destroyed!
Good guy, Qin Jun saw this "three years of new and three years old, and another three years of sewing and mending", and he also called him a good guy!
