Chapter 427: Piercing a chisel is like a broken bamboo
Lei Changye drove the Flying Fish Lady in the wheelhouse and drove along the Jingshui Valley to the northwest. Walk more than 150 miles northwest along the Jingshui Valley to the Qingshui River Valley. With its fertile water and grass and wide terrain, it was an ideal battlefield in Lei Changye's mind, and it was also a testing ground to test whether the donkey-style camel cart he designed could fulfill his tactical intentions.
After he fixed the route, he immediately asked a Yin general on standby by him to pilot for him, and he returned to the Wumeng Council Hall in the middle cabin to announce the deployment of this operation to the people gathered in the hall.
The sand table on the table has been replaced with the terrain of the Qingshui River valley. Bai Qi was arranging the position of the Xihu cavalry with the pharmacist and the others, while fiercely discussing the pursuit situation of the camel cart army.
Seeing Lei Changye enter the house, everyone fell silent, and everyone looked at him with anticipation.
"What's wrong? I didn't make a sound when I came in, what were you discussing?" asked Lei Changye with a smile.
"Lord Lieutenant, the Xihu army has been on the run for nearly seven hours, and the camel cart is setting off now, can it catch up with them in the Qingshui River Valley?" Bai Qi asked eagerly.
"With Huma's stamina and footsteps, he can run about 150 miles in seven hours. The speed of the camel cart was a hundred miles in an hour, and it was probably less than two hours to catch up with them. And according to my estimate, when they catch up with them, they should be feeding the horses in the Qingshui River valley to rest. Lei Changye said with a smile.
"By then, the Flying Fish Lady ship should have caught up with them a long time ago, right?" asked Bai Qi.
"No, I will follow them at a distance from them, once the heavenly ship appears, it will inevitably cause them to scatter and flee, which is not conducive to our army's total annihilation. Lei Changye shook his head, "I will always maintain a position behind the camel cart army, and after the camel cart army has defeated the entire Xihu army, I will put down my soldiers and horses from the heavenly ship to clean up the battlefield." ”
"Your Excellency Lieutenant wants to use the brand-new camel cart army as the main force to annihilate the 200,000 Xihu cavalry?
In his opinion, the camel cart and the Flying Fish Lady Boat, of course, the Flying Fish Lady Boat is the first striking force. However, he also agreed with Lei Changye's concept that the benefits of annihilation were greater than that of defeat. If a war of annihilation can be fought, a rout battle should not be the first choice.
"Why don't you wait with me and see how the results are?" Lei Changye smiled and patted Bai Qi's shoulder vigorously.
"......" Bai Qi took a deep breath. The camel cart was a new weapon that really made him curious. The power of the heavenly ship is obvious, but there is only this magic weapon ship in the world, and it cannot be popularized in the military. But camel carts can be mass-produced. For him, who is accustomed to commanding group operations, of course, the camel cart is more attractive.
"Hmph......" Zi Xin beside him shook her eyebrows at him while sneering, with an ambiguous look that you would kneel at Lei Changye's feet in a while.
"What's the trouble!" Bai Qi didn't want to pay attention to her.
"About two hours later, the camel cart army will arrive at the Qingshui River Valley, I will park the boat here, and then we will divide the troops into ten roads, Zixin, Dongfang Shuo, you lead the first road, follow behind the first squadron of the camel army, Liu Xiu, Yin Lihua, you lead the second road and follow the second squadron, Zhang Jiao, Zang Ba ......"
According to the formation of the camel cart army, Lei Changye assigned their direct troops to the high-level of the Martial Alliance.
"Subordinates obey!"
After he had been assigned, the people were ordered to prepare.
"Chengli, General Bai, you follow me on the ship, and if there is danger along the way, you will go to the rescue. Lei Changye raised his head and said to the pharmacist and Bai Qi who were still by his side.
"Order!" said the pharmacist and Bai Qi at the same time.
All the eight hundred Yin generals on the ship of the Flying Fish Lady have been sent to Shazhou to defend the city. Now the yin who is listening to orders on the ship will be the newly created yin general of Lei Changye. Although Lei Changye has been promoted to the sixth rank and has the ability to create stronger Yin generals, he can control the number of Yin generals, but it has not increased too much because of the stronger ability of Yin generals.
He could now control about a thousand fifth-rank peak Yin generals. There will now be more than one hundred and eighty Yin available for use on board. The rest of the attack firepower was all undertaken by Miss Yu Jiao, who had already risen to the peak of the seventh rank.
Recently, because of Lei Changye's promotion, he has driven his spiritual pet daughter Yu Jiao, who is closely related to him, to break through to the peak of the seventh grade. Her White Bone Ji's attack power has reached the same terrifying level as Xiao Liupin. Although the number of 800 White Bone Ji has not changed, the endurance of the attack has been extended by 40%, and it can reach six hours of continuous shooting.
This time, Lei Changye brought enough white bones and barbecue meat that could eat dozens of meals for Yu Jiao, which could make her skills play to the extreme.
Of course, these are his back-up tips in case the tide of battle turns unpredictably. His main means of attack this time was the camel cart army.
After piloting the celestial ship for a while, he had spotted an army of camel carts moving at full speed. He drove the heavenly boat to hide among the mountains in the Jingshui River Valley, and followed the camel cart army to advance slowly, so as not to let the Xihu soldiers and horses see the ship.
Bai Qi and the medicine master couldn't help but run to the balcony of the VIP building on the upper deck, looking down condescendingly at the huge convoy rumbling in the river valley, anxiously waiting for the moment when the convoy caught up with Xihu's soldiers and horses. Neither of them had ever seen an example of a camel cart actually being used on the battlefield, and while they were curious about the effectiveness of the camel cart, they were also extremely nervous.
Two hours later, the camel cart army drove into the Qingshui River valley with a wide field of vision, and Lei Changye steered the Flying Fish Lady boat to crash into the tail of the camel cart army array, slowing down at low altitude, not daring to be too aggressive.
At the front of the military column, the shrill alarm whistle of the five-foot dai department in the west of the Xihu army had already sounded. Wuchidai is a scout tribe established after Xihu conquered the areas around Hexi and Longshan, with 50,000 households under its jurisdiction, and most of the men were trained from an early age as a standard of scouts.
The cheek scouts are very conscientious and extremely alert. After the armistice between Xihu and the Tang Dynasty thirty years ago, the vast majority of the confrontations between the Xihu army and the Tang soldiers did not turn into large-scale hot wars, but small-scale scout contact battles, so the Tongshu scouts were the main opponents of the Tang soldiers in the past 30 years, and therefore they were extremely strong in the past 30 years and evolved into one of the main combat forces of Xihu. Many of the Tang veterans who participated in the Baiyin Righteous Cong subconsciously blushed and their hearts beat when they saw them.
The camel cart where Xuanjin was at the forefront of the camel cart army immediately showed the left and right five-color flags. When Lei Changye saw her flag, he immediately manipulated the Flying Fish Lady boat to fly to the front of the queue, and ordered the Yin General standing on the Flying Fish Lady's boat to hold high the five-color flag and show the same flag to all the camel carts.
At the same time, the camel chariot army accelerated out of the canyon, fanned out in the wide river valley according to the position indicated by the flag, and formed ten large columns according to the orientation of their respective squadrons, and at the same time, the two squads in the squadron formed twenty small columns according to the left main and right subordinates.
These twenty columns were like twenty bull-eared sharp knives piercing into the Xihu army scattered in the river valley. Although the Tongcheek scouts blew the whistle, the Xihu army had already been chased by the camel cart army when they reacted.
The Thunder Sword Man of the camel cart began to frantically fire the Five Elements Thunder Method. The Shushan disciples who manipulated the Thunder Sword were all veterans selected by Xuanjin, and most of them were big players, and they were old fritters tempered by Lei Changye's fifteen yin generals in the three-legged Golden Toad Tower, and they had practiced team battles against wizards in Netzhou, and the inertia of cooperating with each other was deeply rooted in the bone marrow.
They naturally divided their work according to their position in the battle. On the camel cart that rushed at the beginning, the Thunder Sword people frantically strafed the rolling mines, and the scout cavalry who were running back and forth and the Xihu soldiers who were chasing the horses and wanted to get on the horses were all paralyzed.
The thunder sword people in the subsequent camel cart bombarded the Xihu soldiers who were in confusion with their hands and golden thunder. At the back of the line, the camel cart thunder sword man ended with a spiral fire thunder.
Through the crossbow window of the donkey-shaped carriage, the crossbowmen on the camel cart shot at the Xihu soldiers who had rolled into a gourd.
It was found that there was not a single cheek scout left of the camel cart army, and all of them were completely killed by the Five Elements Thunder Law and the rain of crossbow arrows.
The camel chariot army was extremely ferocious and interspersed in the array of the Xihu army, crushing one Xihu cavalry after another with strong firepower, leaving behind a bloody corpse, rumbling forward without stopping for half a step.
Lei Changye parked the Flying Fish Lady boat at the east end of the Qingshui River valley and lowered the gentle slope bridge. The twenty silver volunteers who had been prepared for a long time were like a bright silver tide, rolling down from the boat and spreading out at the eastern end of the river valley, forming a huge silver fishing net. All the remnants of the Xihu soldiers in the charge of the 300 camel carts just now will be mercilessly strangled by this army.
When this group of troops was all deployed in the Qingshui River Valley, Lei Changye once again drove the boat into the sky and flew in the direction of the camel cart army, always keeping a distance from the camel cart army. When the ship's Yin General and White Bone Ji see a camel cart in difficulty or danger, they will immediately provide fire support around it.
In this way, the car occasionally overturns, or the camel cart climbed to the top by the Xihu army, will also be saved by the rescue of the Flying Fish Lady's boat.
Under such an unprecedented ferocious piercing and advance of camel carts, the 140,000 Xihu army that had rushed to respond was completely unable to organize effective resistance, and the Xihu cavalry that crisscrossed the Western Regions was overwhelmed by the fire rain one after another.
Master Zhu Ling led five hundred monks and soldiers to protect Shang Siluo's one person and three horses, and ran towards the west of the river valley without his life, and now they only thought about one thing, and it would be safe to run to Liangzhou.
But their horses had been running for a day and a night, and they could not run at all, and they had not gone a few steps before they were overtaken by the camel cart forward.
Tuoba Huaiguang and Shang Wanwen led a hastily gathered 10,000 cavalry to block the camel cart, but more than 1,000 elite archers died when they first made contact. These Gui Dongdai knights died a tragic death in front of the camel cart as if they had been melted by the fire of the sky.
"This battle can't be fought!" Shang Wanwen tore off her leather armor hat and threw it on the ground.
