The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 258: End of the first battle

The two armies quickly fought. After all, the distance between the two sides is not far apart. On the plain, there is no limit to the distance, without the slightest cover, the two sides set up their positions, and it will not take long to be able to come into contact with each other.

However, before the war, the two sides' respective war equipment, whether it is a catapult, a crossbow array, or a ballista, or the regular beasts of the public transport family, special organs, and the like.

They are constantly pouring out their unique charm on the battlefield, bringing up bursts of bright red, and losing the lives of countless people.

In this tragic battle, countless people lost their lives. The lives that were cherished by people are cut off like grass and mustards.

The war didn't last long, probably about three days, and the battle came to an end.

After all, it was just a test by both sides. The troops invested were not too much, and the scale of the war was not too large. It is reasonable to end it so quickly.

In the final analysis, the biggest role of this battle is to test the respective strengths of both sides, and to declare the strength of their respective forces through the battle to deter the enemy.

After the war, in addition to leaving behind a corpse, it also took away countless happiness and hope.

The war was so tragic. Under the intimidation of their respective officers, the soldiers on both sides had no retreat at all. They really had to do their best to use their lives to fight for a chance.

Under this kind of persecution, the casualties were naturally heavy. Among them, the Qin army was better. Their war equipment was much better than the opposing coalition forces, and their combat experience was also richer, with only 70,000 casualties.

As for the coalition forces, it would be much worse.

This time the coalition forces are all soldiers and horses of Yuguo. The soldiers and horses of the Yuguo are mainly divided into two parts. The first part is the newly recruited and trained army after Yuguo came to this world, with a total of 10,000 people. They fought south and north, destroyed Donghu, Jizi Korea and the Xiongnu, and participated in the battle to defeat the Yan Kingdom.

Of course, such an army has its level of eliteness. Needless to say, it is indescribable to be brave and capable of fighting. It can be described as the best elite in the world, except that most of them have no internal strength.

The other part is the cannon fodder drawn from the Xiongnu. Although the Xiongnu lives in the north and lives in the vast grasslands, they have lived a life of exile since childhood.

Besides, I have to endure the conquests of other tribes. I grew up in killing and being killed since I was a child. Naturally, he has a wolfish nature and is extremely fierce.

But they were arrested after all, their morale was even more sluggish, and their fighting spirit was not as strong as on the grasslands, but they were considered elite.

This time in the battle, Zhong Yu did not assign the Huns to be cannon fodder. Instead, he chose half of the imperial soldiers and half of the Huns, and the two cooperated to supervise and draw the fighting will of the Huns.

Now is the time when Yuguo is short of major generals, and the war has been developed to this extent, which has greatly exceeded Yuguo's original plan and is heading in an unpredictable direction.

No one knows what will happen in the future. Fortunately, Yuguo has achieved its goal, which has seriously consumed the strength of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period. Except for a small corner of Qi, which is located in Shandong, the other six countries have lost a lot of strength.

According to the news he knew, he came to such a conclusion after passing it through the dark guards everywhere, and after a little integration with his ministers.

That is the entire Central Plains, north of the Yangtze River, the total population is less than 1/3, and most of the losses are young and middle-aged. The strength of the Central Plains can be said to be weakened by a whole half, and the previous grand occasion will no longer be restored.

This can be seen from the passing roads, where no one can be seen for more than a dozen miles, some are only broken villages, and wild dogs and hungry wolves looking for food.

On the battlefield now, if they just force the Huns to come forward and be cannon fodder, even though they are forced by their power and pressure, for the sake of their own ethnic group, they dare not refuse.

But their combat efficiency will definitely be extremely low. Even if they can't postpone it, they will probably retreat after two deliberate fights, and they won't be desperate at all.

Because they are now what kind of their own dead spots, the law does not blame the public, 10 million people retreat together, does Yuguo really dare to kill them all?

Zhong Yu really didn't dare, let's not say that this is a 10,000 bloodthirsty wolf clan, it is impossible to wait for death and let him kill.

Just say that after so many soldiers died, the form of the battlefield would definitely change drastically.

First, since Qin's strength is almost the same, it will become only half of Qin's, and its strength will be greatly lost. Besides, after I have so many fewer people, not only the morale of my own soldiers will be greatly affected, but also the soldiers of Yan and South Korea behind them will greatly reduce their fighting will.

With this kind of worry, Zhong Yu certainly didn't dare to act recklessly. He had to think about it reasonably, so that he could maximize the characteristics of the cannon fodder of the Huns and let them shed the last blood for himself.

That's why the two sides will have the same force, be in the same position, and go to the battlefield together. This kind of plan comes out~IndoMTL.com~ The elite of the imperial kingdom are present, and the elite of Yu Guo can be used as a breakthrough to fight against Qin. Attack and make some breakthroughs on the tactical level.

Secondly, seeing that their suzerain states are so ferocious, the Huns who have bloodthirsty elites in their blood will naturally be aroused in their hearts and become fearless together.

With the leader, coupled with the situation on the battlefield, the fighting power of the Huns will inevitably be maximized, and their role is more than just cannon fodder.

Therefore, after the war, the Yuguo withdrew about 10,000 elite soldiers of the Yuguo, plus about 5,000 Huns remnants, and the casualties were 15ooo more people than Qin.

This time the battle really shocked the State of Qin. They did not expect that the fighting will of the soldiers on the opposite side of the kingdom would be so brave and strong, not afraid of life or death.

In ancient times, those who could withstand 10% of casualties were considered regular troops. Thirty percent is elite. Fifty percent, that is the battlefield hero, a precious trump card under the hands of each general. As for 80% or more, that is a kind of force that can be met but not sought.

However, the Warring States Period is naturally not the kind of dynasty of later generations. Hundreds of years of war have long made all civilians in the Warring States Period accustomed to killing. Their tolerance for casualties is far greater than that of every dynasty in later generations.

Those who can withstand more than 30% of the casualties are all mobs who are temporarily conscripted. More than 50% can be regarded as a regular army. Over 80% are the elite trump cards of each country.

But even if it is such an elite trump card, there are not too many countries. Xiang Han, Zhao and Wei, with three or forty thousand people, is not bad. As for the Qin Chuqi countries, that is, 10,000 people.
