Chapter 195: The Decisive Battle
Chapter 195
The warm spring breeze looks very bleak in Wushan.
The dust was flying under the scorching sun, and the rumbling sound resounded through the sky.
The red phalanx of the Chu army was like a vermilion bird under the scorching sun, and the majestic momentum was from the clouds.
On the other side, the Tang military formation, which was crimson mixed with bright yellow, looked unusually calm.
The commanders of the two armies are arranging their troops, preparing for a later fight.
Suddenly, among the Chu army, a person rode out of the battle on a fast horse.
"The chief general of the Tang Army, dare to come out and talk about it!" Qu Heng's voice came from afar.
Gongsun Qi frowned, and then walked down from the point platform.
Qin Yuan stopped Gongsun Qi, "Be careful of deception!" โ
Gongsun Qi smiled and said: "Don't worry, in front of the two armies, no one dares to cheat." โ
Gongsun Qi turned over his horse and rode out.
"I didn't expect that the coach of the Tang Army was so young, which is really surprising." Qu Heng arched his hand and said, a hint of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
Gongsun Qi returned the salute, "General Qu, could it be that after fighting for so long, General Qu has not investigated us?" โ
Qu Heng looked embarrassed, he really didn't investigate.
Because Qu Heng didn't look down on Tang Jun, he didn't bother to investigate.
After the failure of the siege, the defeat of the Weihe River and other things, Qu Heng was so annoyed that he forgot to investigate these.
Gongsun Qi continued: "General Qu, as a member of the Qu family among the three households of the Chu State, if you die here, I am afraid it will be a great loss for the Qu family. โ
"General Ben is kind, give General Qu a choice, retire now, General Qu still has a way to live."
Hearing Gongsun Qi's words, Qu Hengda laughed out loud, as if he had heard the funniest words.
"General Ben Guaner and others only have 60,000 soldiers and horses, you can see the army behind General Ben! That's 130,000 troops! โ
Qu Heng looked at Gongsun Qi very arrogantly, and said: "This general can also give you a way to live, if you take refuge in my Chu State, this general can allow you to be a high-ranking official!" โ
Gongsun Qi chuckled, "Okay, don't talk about this kind of nonsense, it's just a waste of time." โ
"General Qu, did you call General Ben out just for this nonsense?"
"Humph!" Qu Heng snorted coldly, "This general is in the heart of cherishing talents, but you don't understand the heart of this general, so that's it." โ
After Qu Heng finished speaking, he turned around and left directly.
Gongsun Qi looked at Qu Heng's back and shook his head with a smile, and then shouted: "General Qu, if you are defeated, General Ben will let you live, and then you have to run faster!" โ
"Wait for death!" Gongsun Qi responded angrily.
Gongsun Qi returned to the formation and re-ascended to the point general platform.
Gongsun Qi took a deep breath, still a little nervous in his heart.
After all, this was the first time he had commanded such a large force and engaged in a head-on battle with the enemy.
Qin Yuan also seemed to see Gongsun Qi's nervousness, rode on the war horse, raised his head and said to Gongsun Qi: "Calm down and follow the acting." โ
Gongsun Qi smiled at Qin Yuan and said, "I'm not nervous, but excited. โ
"That's good, I'm leaving!" Qin Yuan clamped his horse's belly between his legs, and then walked towards the other end of the military formation.
"Boom, boom, boomยทยทยทยทยทยท"
There was a deafening sound of drums in the Chu army, and then in the large formation of the Chu army, the Changge army phalanx walked towards the Tang army with heavy steps.
The Changge of the Chu army refracted a dazzling light in the sun, and a fierce murderous aura shrouded the military array.
After seeing this scene, Gongsun Qi, who was on the platform, ordered very calmly: "Changge soldiers go out to meet the enemy!" โ
The herald next to him immediately waved the flag in his hand, and when the generals of the various armies saw it, they immediately understood Gongsun Qi's order.
"Go out to meet the enemy!" The general in front of the formation pulled out the sword at his waist and waved, and the Changge phalanx leaned and walked towards the Chu army phalanx with neat steps.
Qu Heng, who was in the Chu army, smiled easily after seeing this scene.
Judging from the other party's command, it was decent, and there were no other schemes.
This is much simpler for Qu Heng, as long as he responds decently, even if the opponent's combat power is strong, relying on the advantage of troops, he can achieve victory.
Moreover, Qu Heng can also quickly grasp the initiative, and a sudden change of tactics can make the Tang army's commander chaotic.
The phalanx of the two armies quickly came into contact with everything, and the two armies were separated by seven or eight paces, constantly stabbing or slashing at the enemy with the Changge in their hands.
After this Changge is chopped, it can cut the throat of the enemy army with a sharp pull.
However, the equipment of the Tang Army in Cangxian County has long been improved, and the throat part is also protected by armor, and it is made of stainless steel, so the bronze Changge cannot cause damage at all.
Of course, this equipment is not invincible.
The Chu army soon changed its tactics and attacked specifically at the places where the Tang army was not covered by armor, causing the Tang army to also suffer casualties.
At this time, the Chu army suddenly increased its troops, and thousands of Changge soldiers pressed again.
Gongsun Qi frowned, Qu Heng wanted to encircle the Changge phalanx he sent out.
Gongsun Qi sneered and ordered: "Pass the order, fight and retreat." โ
"No!" The herald waved the flag again.
At this moment, the Chu army again changed its offensive.
Hundreds of chariots rushed out of the Chu army's large array and killed the Tang army directly.
Seeing this scene, Gongsun Qi hurriedly issued an order.
The next moment, a whirring roar sounded in the sky.
Directly one by one, the boulders flew out, and finally smashed into the chariot phalanx of the Chu army.
The huge stone directly smashed the chariot of the Chu army, and even if it did not hit the chariot, it could shake the war horse out of direction and rampage on the battlefield.
Suddenly, the Chu army's vehicle formation was broken, and the battlefield was even more chaotic.
Qu Heng's face was dark when he saw this scene, he didn't expect that the Tang army would actually use the trebuchet here, isn't this used for siege?
Just when Qu Heng was angry, he saw a group of soldiers rushing out of both wings of the Tang Army at the same time.
Armed with round shields and scimitars, these soldiers quickly rushed towards the Changge phalanx of the Chu army.
"Not good!" Qu Heng's face sank, and he immediately ordered the cavalry to charge.
The rumbling cavalry quickly rushed out of the Chu army's large array and rushed straight towards the Tang army that rushed out from both flanks.
However, to Qu Heng's surprise, these Tang troops suddenly dispersed.
I saw that in the center of these sword and shield soldiers was a group of soldiers with heavy armor beside them, holding a large sword seven feet long, a blade three feet long, and a four-foot handle.
"Kill!"
These people shouted angrily, and the sound of killing shook the heavens and the earth as if they were shaking, and then went straight to the cavalry of the Chu army.
"Humph! Do you think you can deal with cavalry with heavy armor? Laugh! โ
However, before Qu Heng could finish, he saw these heavy infantry raise their broadswords and slash towards the cavalry.
"Boom!"
The loud sound of the broadsword falling to the ground kicked up a cloud of dust.
And the war horses and people who were hit by this knife were directly split by this knife.
"What!" Qu Heng was shocked!
Such a picture was constantly staged on the battlefield, which shocked the generals of the Chu army in amazement, and the war horses under them were agitated.
At this time, Gongsun Qi showed a reassuring smile.
At the beginning, Gongsun Qi was very optimistic about the Modao team formed by this adult.
Although the Mo Dao team selected all the strong men in the army and the equipment was extremely well-equipped, it still looked too bulky.
However, the performance of the Modao team today was simply unexpected, and the picture of people and horses was simply shocking.
At the same time, the sword and shield soldiers had already been pasted to the Changge soldiers of the Chu army.
Although Changge soldiers had swordsmen on both wings, they could not break through the shields, and they were immediately tortured and killed.
