I’m The King Chapter 1204: : Carrying forward the past and ushering in the future (Ninety-five) New Year’s bell (continued five)
Gou Yi finally felt that something was wrong. It was not because Zhao Jun showed strong combat power to firmly block his attack. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. The mighty army that can compete with the Qin army is not as good as it used to be, but the basic skeleton is still there. Gou Yiyuan does not expect a single attack to defeat them. Those who exerted great strength were much stronger than the garrisons in other places in Xizhao. 【To read the latest chapter of this book, please search 800】Baidu or search for ""-basket. . . Ba,
What made Gouyi's scalp a little numb was the intensive attack from Zhao Jun's long-range weapons. Although the opponent used the bed crossbow they are familiar with, it is well known that the bed crossbow is heavy and has an extremely slow firing speed. The advancing cavalry is not a big threat. If a cavalry is hit head-on by the bed crossbow, it only means that your bad luck is really a headshot.
But now the other party's long-range weapons, except for the bed crossbow, the crossbow arrows that covered the sky and covered the sky with a special sound of collapse caused him to suffer heavy losses. The first wave of attacks was caught off guard and could rush to Zhao Jun. There were very few cavalry in front of the position, and they had no attack power against the enemy, so they could only become victims of the Western Zhao army's swords and guns.
Although Gouyi is not familiar with this weapon, he definitely knows what it is. On this continent, only the army of Han is equipped with the magic crossbow. It can fire hundreds of crossbow arrows at a time, and the range can reach two-thirds of the bed crossbow. This kind of magic crossbow is definitely the biggest attack by cavalry Bad news.
But where did the Western Zhao army get so many magic crossbows? You must know that in the past two years, Daqin has worked hard and tried its best, but it was just a few dozen secretly obtained. The magic crossbows were all sent to the workshop in Xianyang for research and imitation, but from what Gouyi knows now, because the level of steel smelting in Daqin itself is far lower than that of the Han Dynasty, and the quality requirements for this kind of magic crossbows are for steel And extremely high. The imitated things are often shot more than ten times before they are all scrapped, and they cannot be put into mass production at all, let alone equipped for the army.
But now, there is the whistling sound of this magic crossbow in the Western Zhao army. It can be distinguished that there are at least hundreds of such weapons.
Gouyi's scalp was numb, and he felt something was wrong in his heart. There is only one possibility for Xi Zhao to obtain so many magic crossbows, that is, they colluded with the Han army. They took refuge in the Han State, so they were able to obtain so many weapons from the Han State that the Han State is still blocking.
Thinking of this, Gouyi felt that something was wrong. If the Xizhao army had defected to Han, then the military rebellion in Jinyang County this time would definitely not be so simple. Maybe it was a prepared plan against Daqin Calculating, why did Zhao Xilie have the guts to challenge the mighty Qin Jun? Where did his self-confidence come from?
There is only one possibility, the army of Dahan must have arrived in Jinyang County. Popular
What kind of army can block all news from suddenly appearing in Jinyang in a short period of time. The answer is self-evident, cavalry, powerful cavalry, they can even run faster than spies in their own country.
Since the Xiongnu and Donghu have surrendered to the Han, the cavalry of the Han has become the biggest heart disease of the Qin and Chu countries. No one can compete with them in this respect.
It's not that Qin Chu didn't want to equip cavalry on a large scale, but when there was a shortage of horses, the Han people almost controlled all the sources of war horses. Apart from obtaining war horses from some Zhao privately, Qin Chu also raised them domestically. In this way, war horses have become a scarce strategic resource, and secondly, it costs money to raise a cavalry. It can raise ten infantry very well. Compared with the two, the Qin and Chu countries are not interested in the large-scale deployment of cavalry. Only the Han people can have such a luxury, and they can mobilize a large number of cavalry at any time. .
Gou Yi stared at the map in front of him. If the cavalry of the Han Dynasty have already appeared in Jinyang, what do they want to do most?
Moving his fingers over the map, Gouyi's head began to sweat. Huo Di raised his head and shouted, "Come on!"
A Yajiang quickly ran up to Gouyi.
"Immediately send people back to block the infantry, tell them to stop advancing immediately, build a position quickly, and prepare for defense." Gou Yi said sharply.
"Ah?" The general obviously didn't react. Now that the cavalry's first wave of attack has failed, shouldn't it be time to urge the infantry to speed up so that the infantry and cavalry can cooperate to defeat Zhao Jun?
"Secondly, send another person to report back to General Lu quickly, say, say..." Gou Yi paused, and finally made up his mind to make his own judgment: "It is said that Zhao Jun has surrendered The change of Han and Jinyang was a conspiracy against our Great Qin, it is very likely that a large-scale Han cavalry has entered Jinyang County under the cover of Zhao Jun.”
After Gouyi finished speaking, he found that Yajiang was standing there with his mouth gaping and not moving. He couldn't help being furious. He stepped forward and kicked that Yajiang on the ground, "Are you deaf? Do it soon."
"Yes, General Gou, the last general will do it right away!" Ya Jiang got up from the ground and ran out in a daze.
Gouyi wandered around anxiously in the temporary tent, relying on a weapon to make such a judgment, for him, it was very risky, once it was proved otherwise, His future will be greatly affected by this, but compared to the possible crisis, Gou Yi has no mind to consider these things.
Now what he wants to think about is not how to break through Zhao Jun's blockade and fight under Jinyang City, but how to retreat safely. If all the speculations are true, there is no doubt that Jinyang City , Yang Jie's five thousand Qin army should no longer exist in Quanguo.
"After the order was passed, the left army continued to attack, but the intensity of the attack was reduced, and the attack was mainly diversionary. After dark, the right army and the central army began to retreat quietly. The three armies took turns to cover and break away from the enemy. "
Having made up his mind, Gou Yi immediately issued a series of orders. He wasn't worried that Zhao Xilie would find out his whereabouts, because even if he knew, he wouldn't have the guts to chase after him. I can't do anything if you line up, but if you push your nose and face and dare to catch up, then don't worry about me. .
The cavalry on the left side of the Qin Army has maintained an attack every half an hour or so. The intensity of the attack is not as strong as the first wave of attacks. , and immediately retreated when encountering a slight resistance, while the cavalry on the left was attacking, and the cavalry on the right and the central army began to make exact preparations for retreat.
Winter nights always get dark very early, coupled with the extremely bad weather, the sky is full of wind and snow, very early, the sky darkened, Qin Jun's attack suddenly stopped, under the cover of wind, snow and night Under such circumstances, they left the battlefield and retreated towards Lubin. Gouyi now only wanted to join his infantry, and then retreated to Lubin first, and then retreated to Hangu Pass.
Gouyi's reaction was not unpleasant, but faster than him were the two cavalry of the Han Dynasty. When Gouyi guessed the truth and started to retreat, the two cavalry of the Han Dynasty had already arrived The attack position launched a swift and violent attack on the infantry team of the Qin army.
In the past two years, the Qin army has almost regarded Zhao's territory as its own back garden. As for the flat-headed soldiers, no one thought that they would encounter large-scale enemy cavalry attacks on their own territory.
Among the wind and snow, more than 10,000 infantrymen of the Qin army dragged into a long line, stretching for several miles, forming a long snake on the road, which became an excellent target for the cavalry to attack . The sound of howling wind and snow covered the sound of the cavalry approaching. When the first cavalry of the Han army rushed into the Qin army and began to slash and kill, the Qin army hardly made any reaction.
Squads of cavalry are like the scythe of death, recklessly harvesting the lives of the soldiers of the Qin army. Without a thick formation, long-range weapons and obstacles to block, the infantry confronting the cavalry is a tragic ending.
The cruel reality of more than 10,000 cavalry against more than 15,000 infantry, even the strength of the two sides is almost the same, so that the Qin army has no resistance at all. It collapsed.
It cannot be said that Qin Bing was not brave. Under such an unfavorable situation, they resisted bravely at the beginning, but the huge gap in strength quickly destroyed everyone's confidence. To be brave, but to die, to die in vain, the Qin army broke up, and in the snowstorm, there were fleeing figures and chasing cavalry teams everywhere. The fleeing Qin army was either caught up and killed by the Han cavalry, or Just throwing down their weapons and raising their hands to surrender to their opponents, more than 10,000 Qin troops were all defeated in a short period of time.
Among the wind and snow~IndoMTL.com~ Standing high and far under the banner, looking at the one-sided Qin army, I couldn't help but shake my head, no matter how elite the troops are, they have no ability to resist under such circumstances of.
"Send the order, try to catch the prisoners, don't kill them indiscriminately, these are all good young adults, and they will be my subjects in the future!" Gao Yuan said, the reason for this order is to follow him this time There were two cavalry from different races. Gu Li, the leader of the cavalry of the Huns, was originally the daughter of the royal family of the Huns. The whole family was killed by the Qin people more than ten years ago. She was the only one who escaped by chance. People hate like bones, if she can kill one more person, she will never kill one less.
When night fell, the battle was over. Half of the more than 10,000 Qin soldiers were killed, and more than half were taken prisoner. Only one in ten escaped in the snow.
When Gouyi withdrew from Mao'er Mountain and got rid of contact with Zhao Xilie, the infantry team he dragged behind had been wiped out, and he was walking towards a death trap step by step.
Ten thousand cavalrymen were waiting for his arrival leisurely. To be continued. ~ Search Basket*, you can read the following chapters in full
