Chapter 2478 The Great Victory in Gaojing (9) - Baima Yicong VS Feixiong Army

Chapter 2474: The Great Victory in Gaojing (9) - Baima Yicong VS Feixiong Army

Baima Yicong may not be the most powerful cavalry in the Qin Dynasty, but it is definitely the most impressive and eye-catching elite.

Daqin Baima Yicong rode all white war horses, equipped with silver helmets, silver armors, silver guns, white robes and other silver-white equipment, it was extremely gorgeous.

But no one who saw it didn't say he was handsome.

Such a gorgeous and powerful elite cavalry is obviously the existence that all generals dream of, but Qin Emperor Ying Hao never changed its command.

That's right, Baima Yicong has a good commanding position, and it has always been Gongsun Xuanyuan.

It wasn't until half a year ago that Gongsun Xuanyuan, perhaps because he thought the white horse was too ostentatious, or because of other reasons, voluntarily submitted a letter to resign as the general of the white horse. Only then did the elite commander change and was transferred to Liangzhou.

As the only elite battalion of the Qin Army in Guanzhong, Li Shimin was naturally very concerned about Baima Yicong.

Knowing that Brother Baima Yicong was transferred away, Li Shimin asked his subordinates to confirm many times, and all he got was that Baima Yicong had indeed gone to Liangzhou, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

But what Li Shimin never expected was that Baima Yicong, who was supposed to be in Liangzhou, now appeared on the battlefield of Haojing.

Although the fine cavalry in front of him was no longer a white horse, and its equipment was not the most flamboyant silver-white equipment, Li Shimin still easily recognized that it was a white horse.

There is no other reason, the slogan of the white horse righteousness is "Where righteousness comes, life and death follow each other, the sky can learn from it, and the white horse is the proof." 'Li Shimin has heard it too many times.

Each elite battalion has its own slogan, and each army is also its own pride. Generally, they will not shout the slogans of other troops.

So it is obvious that this cavalry is the White Horse Yi Cong.

After reaching this conclusion, Li Shimin felt even more uneasy.

It turned out that Bai Ma Yicong's transfer to Liangzhou was a conspiracy, and as early as half a year ago, Daqin had been planning for this day.

It's just that I don't know whether this plan is Wu Qi's idea or Wang Jian's idea.

The plan to transfer Baima Yicong was actually Wu Qi's idea.He purposely asked another cavalry force, or even an army that might not be cavalry, to put on the white horse righteousness' equipment and ride away all the white horses, in order to mislead Li Tang.

Under the habit of thinking, Li Tang's senior officials, including Li Shimin, all thought that the white horse Yinjia was the white horse Yicong, and they also thought that Baima Yicong had been transferred to Liangzhou, and the Qin army no longer had an elite battalion in Liangzhou.

But in fact, Bai Ma Yicong was still in Guanzhong, and he was under Li Tang's nose, just changed his equipment, and no one in the whole Tang country found out.

Li Shimin didn't discover the whole conspiracy, not because he was careless or something else, but because he never thought that Daqin would use such a trick at all.

Facing different opponents, the acting style is completely different.

Even in the face of a powerful opponent, Daqin is upright, focusing on righteousness, supplemented by ingenious schemes.

But in the face of weak opponents, it is obvious that they use power to overwhelm them, push them with strength, and basically do not use conspiracy and tricks.

With Daqin's stature, facing a weak country like Li Tang, it is obviously possible to push him by force, and there is no need to use such tricks.

But Qin Jun not only used it, but also used it at the most critical moment, which made Li Shimin a little uncomfortable.

The top officials of the Qin Army never underestimated Tang Jun from the beginning to the end. On the contrary, he underestimated the chief general of the Qin Army, Wang Jian.

At this thought, Li Shimin regretted endlessly in his heart, but the thing had already happened, and it was too late for him to regret it any more.

The most important thing at present is to defeat Baima Yicong. Only in this way can the Qin army be defeated and win.

"Flying Bear Army, kill it."

Li Shimin drew his sword and shouted, planning to participate in the fight himself.

Among the [-] Tang cavalry, only [-] are from the Feixiong army, and the other [-] are ordinary Xiliang iron cavalry.

Seeing the lord personally participating in the battle, the cavalry of the Tang army increased greatly. They all screamed with red eyes and rushed towards the Qin army shouting, only to be hit by a round of arrows head-on.

The crossbows of the Qin army have a longer range than the Tang army. If the cavalry confronted head-on, based on the distance calculation, they would shoot the Tang army two more rounds.

Baima Yicong was good at riding and archery, and his arrows were far more accurate than ordinary Qin cavalry. In just two rounds of shooting, six or seven hundred Tang cavalry fell off their horses.

Seeing this, Li Shimin was relieved. With nine thousand Qin cavalry, only six or seven hundred people were shot down in two rounds. It seems that Baima Yicong is not doing very well.

What Li Shimin didn't know was that he was deceived by Wang Jian again. He thought that there were 9000 Qinqi on the opposite side, but in fact there were only [-], and Wang Jian hid the remaining [-].

Li Shimin calculated according to [-], which is why Qin Qi's riding and shooting hit rate is absolutely low, but if it is [-], he will shoot down one-tenth of his enemy troops in two rounds, and this hit rate is already quite high.

Tang Jun also fought back after two rounds of crossbow arrows, and the two sides began to shoot at each other.

After three rounds of shooting, the distance between the cavalry on both sides had been shortened to 50 meters, so both sides tacitly put away their crossbows and replaced them with javelins.

Seeing that Tang Jun was also equipped with javelins, both Wang Jian and Huang Tianhua showed pained expressions, and they were obviously surprised by this.

"Sure enough, Li Shimin has a trump card." Wang Jian sighed softly.

He is not a person who likes to gamble, but at this moment he is praying in his heart, hoping that Li Shimin has no other cards to show, otherwise, even if Qin Jun wins in the end, it may only be a miserable victory.

The javelin was also the first equipment used by the Qin army, and it shined brilliantly in cavalry battles.

But before that, no other country except Qin had used javelins on a large scale.

The reason is that the javelin consumes too much steel.

Javelins consume a lot of iron. A javelin made of all metal weighs eight catties at its lightest.

The heavy javelin against heavy cavalry weighed fifteen catties.

If the cavalry is equipped with javelins, it is good to win the battle, after all, it can be recovered and used repeatedly.

But if the battle is not won, or if the battle is lost, the tens of thousands of javelins and 10,000+ catties of steel will be given away in vain, and this is just a war.

In this era when there are still many spearmen in many countries who still use wooden spears with iron heads, equipment such as javelins is too extravagant, and it is not affordable for ordinary countries at all.

If there is steel for making javelins, it is better to replace all spearmen's spears with all-metal ones.

This is also the main reason why only Daqin has been using javelins again.

It's not that other countries don't want to use it, but they can't afford it at all.

Daqin will not use javelins in all wars, but will only use them in some key battles. After all, there will be dozens or even hundreds of small battles in a big battle. It's too extravagant, even Daqin can't afford such consumption.

Even Li Tang's spearmen were still using wooden spears, so obviously they couldn't afford javelins.

But Li Shimin equipped the cavalry with javelins in this battle. Obviously, after a long time of planning, he secretly built a large number of javelins, just for use in this battle, in order to catch the Qin army by surprise.

Li Shimin took the javelin as a hole card, and his plan did succeed.

Neither Wu Qi nor Wang Jian expected Tang Jun to fight with javelins.

For the cavalry, the distance of 50 meters is very short, and the cavalry on both sides projected only two rounds.

Tang Jun threw more than 5000 javelins, only causing more than 1000 casualties to Qin Jun. Although the hit rate was less than one-tenth, it was already the highest hit rate for Tang Jun.

Qin Jun threw more than [-] javelins, but caused more than [-] casualties to Tang Jun, and the hit rate exceeded one-tenth.

It can be seen from this that Tang's use of javelins is still far behind Qin's.

After two rounds of long-range attacks with crossbow arrows and javelins, the Tang army had [-] horses left, while the Qin army had [-] horses left.

Even before the head-on battle, the Tang army suffered [-] cavalry casualties, while the Qin army suffered [-] cavalry casualties, two-thirds of which were killed by javelins.

Li Shimin's trick made Qin Jun pay a heavy price, but it was still within the tolerable range.

Before the start of the battle, Wang Jian had a rough estimate of the casualties of this battle. As long as the number of casualties did not exceed [-], it would be a big victory, and if it exceeded [-], it would be a miserable victory.

Although it seems a bit thrilling now, it can still control the casualties within [-].

boom……

After the long-range attack, the iron cavalry of Qin and Tang countries finally collided head-on.

Before the two armies collided, Li Shimin finally realized that the number of cavalry in the Qin army was not right.

He couldn't estimate the exact amount, but it certainly wasn't nine thousand.

Li Shimin never expected that Wang Jian's [-] cavalry, against his own army of [-], would be fine if he didn't go all out, but he dared to divide his troops.

No one else has the courage, Ying Hao is not as courageous as him.

When the matter developed to this point, Li Shimin also roughly guessed Wang Jian's next goal, which was nothing more than to block his central army, and then use the hidden cavalry to attack his two wings in a detour.

Now that the battle on the two wings is in a state of anxiety, the intervention of any Qin army may become the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

With this in mind, Li Shimin immediately gave an order to Hou Junji in the rear, ordering him to bring 1000 troops to transport the fuel trucks that had been prepared in advance to the only way to the battle zone on the left and right wings. Let go of the fire to prevent the Qin army's iron cavalry from supporting the left and right wings.

If there is a big fire blocking each other, the Qin army can only take a detour, and the detour is a waste of time.

As long as the Qin army can be delayed for an hour, then the Tang army will surely win this battle.

"Wang Jian, Wang Jian, I don't believe you have other cards. No matter what your goal is, as long as the Chinese army can't hold it, you will lose this battle."

Li Shimin shook his head. After throwing out his distracting thoughts, Yu Wentai and Changsun Wuji, who commanded the infantry in the rear, led all the infantry to surround the Qin army from the flanks.

Even if the Tang army's iron cavalry is one thousand more than the Qin army's in number, and there is an increase in the force of "Zhenguan", there is still a gap between the overall combat power and the Qin army.

The cavalry alone cannot defeat the Qin army, so it is still possible to defeat the Qin army by relying on the infantry, or superiority in strength.

Yuwentai and Changsun Wuji had been waiting for a long time, and after receiving the order, each led an army of [-] to attack.

Since then, the [-] troops of the Tang army have all been mobilized, and there is no new force to mobilize, but the Qin army still has [-] cavalry who have not yet appeared, and a new force of [-] infantry has not participated in the battle.

Wang Jian held back Li Shimin's [-] army with only [-] cavalry. This ability to command battles is one of the few in Great Qin with many famous generals.

Qin army camp.

When Ji Dan saw [-] Tang soldiers encircling the country, but there were only [-] on his own side, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, and asked Wen Zhong, "Sir, it's not that I don't have confidence in you." , but Changsun Wuji and Yu Wentai are both famous generals in the world, with extraordinary abilities, Yu, are you really sure that you can block them both at the same time?"

Wen Zhong said confidently: "It's just two juniors. Today I will let them see how the soldiers of the older generation fight."

Wen Zhong is not an arrogant person. The reason why he is so confident is not because of himself, but because of the four thousand troops that Wang Jian handed over to him.

The [-] troops left by Wang Jian are called "Qin Wuzu", and they have been trained by three famous generals, Li Jing, Wu Qi, and Wang Jian. It's a matter of time.

The elite of Wang Jian's cavalry has the white horses, and the elite of the infantry has the soldiers of Qin. It is because of these two elites that he dared to use [-] cavalry to fight Li Shimin head-on.

On the other hand, Li Shimin had a large number of troops under his command, but only the elite Feixiong Army, and the Xuanjia Army was left in Chang'an by him.

If the Xuanjia Army is also there, the outcome of this battle may be hanging in the balance.

Of course, if Wang Jian knew, he would definitely make other arrangements.

Seeing that Changsun Wuji and Yu Wentai wanted to cooperate with Li Shimin to double-team Wang Jian, Wen Zhong decisively ordered: "Send the order, the whole army will attack."

"kill……"

The 4000 soldiers of the Qin army roared angrily. Although there were only 4 of them, they shouted a momentum of [-]. Each of them held a Modao, but they were wearing light armor.

This is of course not that the Qin army can't produce four thousand heavy armors, but that the positioning of Qin's soldiers is like this, and they need to retain a certain degree of mobility.

Under the leadership of Wen Zhong, the four thousand soldiers of the Qin Dynasty went down like tigers, five people formed a small pair, and a hundred people formed a squadron, a total of [-] squadrons, and went straight to Changsun Wuji and Yu Wentai.

Both Changsun Wuji and Yu Wentai obviously didn't expect that the last four thousand Qin army would be so powerful, and they also had such a strong general as Wen Zhong hidden, so that they were beaten by a pawn and couldn't guard against them, causing heavy casualties .

　I originally thought that this chapter would be able to finish the battle, but there is too much content, and I am already writing it, but I still haven't finished it, so I can only wait for the next chapter.

　　I have been resting for too long before, and I am a little unaccustomed to coming back these days, and the next update will gradually stabilize.

　　At the beginning of the Baiyin League, it was said that the chapter on anti-theft would not be published for two months. Now that two and a half months have passed, it will resume posting chapters on anti-theft, whether it is useful or not.
