Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 205 The World Returns 1: The Battle on the Western Front

Chapter 205 The World is One and the Battle on the Western Front ([-])

The King of Qin said resolutely: "General Sima, I don't appreciate your words of persuasion, so I have nothing to worry about, so I will flood this land with the blood of the soldiers of the two armies." He drew his sword out of its sheath suddenly, Roared: "Attack!"

The Qin army shouted "attack" in unison, armed with weapons, and rushed over like a tide.The king of Zhao was captured. In the minds of the soldiers, today will be the last battle. The desire for victory has aroused the blood of the soldiers. .

With a wave of Sima Shang's hand, the archer stood up, stretched out an arrow from the hole in the fence, and aimed at the Qin army.Sima Shang did not immediately give the order to release the arrows, until the Qin army was placed very close, until the Qin army rushed to the edge of Haogou, then he gave the order "release!" The arrows shot straight at the Qin army, and many Qin soldiers fell to the ground after being hit by the arrow.Those with great momentum even plunged headlong into the ditch, stirring up waves, which is really beautiful.

Qin Jun was holding back his energy, how could he be frightened by a rain of arrows, the one in front fell down, and the one behind rushed over without stopping.The shield in his hand moved forward, forming a shield wall, and advancing towards Zhao Ying.

"Rocket ready." Sima Shang ordered, Zhao Jun's archers immediately ignited the rockets and nocked the arrows.

Sima Shang ordered: "Shoot up to the sky! Let it go!"

The arrows in the hands of Zhao Jun's archers pointed at the sky obliquely, forming a 45-degree angle, and shot them all together. The arrows first shot a certain distance into the sky and then fell down.

Qin Jun's shield was raised up, forming a dense shield formation, blocking Zhao Jun's arrows.Only hearing the sound of thumping, Qin Jun's shield was full of arrows.During the Warring States period, due to the level of manufacturing, shields were not made of pure iron, but mainly made of wood. The shields were filled with rockets and burned quickly.

Modern ballistics has proved that the 45-degree upward firing has the longest range.Sima Shang is a good general, very shrewd, how can he only shoot from the back at 45 degrees, and constantly order the archers to change the angle to shoot the rocket. Qin Jun knew that the shield was going to catch fire, but he had no choice but to use the shield to resist.

There was a spectacular and strange scene in front of the formation of the two armies. Countless Qin troops advanced forward with fiery shields in their hands.In terms of time, the Qin army could have rushed to the edge of Haogou before the shield lost its effect, which was quickly verified.However, another problem came again, that is, the trench was dug wide and deep, and it was very close to Zhao Jun's camp, so that Zhao Jun could shoot and kill Qin Jun.

Zhao Jun is a very well-trained army, and he knows what to do without Sima Shang's orders. The archers bend their bows and arch arrows, and they don't use rockets.Ever since Wuling King Hufu shot horses, the people of Zhao State are better than other countries in horse riding and archery. To be sure, the number of arrows hit by the Qin army was unknown, and they all fell down in one fell swoop, like fallen straw.

Since the reform of Shang Yang, the people of Qin State advocated bravery and courage in public battles. Coupled with the years of wars in the Warring States Period, the men of Qin State who have not been on the battlefield may only be children or people who are born disabled. The soldiers of Qin State have been on the battlefield many times , With rich experience in the battlefield, he was not afraid at all, and shot at Zhao Jun with a continuous crossbow.

Liannu is famous for its long continuous shooting ability and fierce firepower. Unfortunately, Zhao Jun has a stockade to rely on. Most of the arrows shot on the wooden fence, and only a small part of them shot in. The lethality is limited. Only a few unlucky Zhao Jun arrow.

Zhao Jun was backed by a fence, and was in a favorable position. He only shot arrows and never left the camp. He shot and killed an unknown number of Qin troops.But the Qin army was so brave that one wave fell, and another wave went up again.Not long after, there was a thick layer of corpses floating in the ditch, all red, and a strong smell of blood filled the air.

"Your Majesty, this is not a solution. We have to think of another strategy." Wang Jian suggested to King Qin.

King Qin nodded and said, "I think so too. General Wang, what can you do?"

Wang Jian thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, I am incompetent and have not thought of a good strategy yet."

King Qin asked Meng Wu, "Where is General Meng?"

Meng Wu pondered and said: "Your Majesty, I think the biggest difficulty is not Zhao Jun's rain of arrows, but the ditch. If the ditch can be filled, the problem will be much easier."

Qin Wang sighed: "This is the method Lian Po adopted during the Changping War. Back then, he relied on a moat to block the attack of our hundreds of thousands of troops. In addition, the outcome of the Battle of Changping is still unpredictable. General Lian Po passed away, but his legacy is still there, and today his legacy is difficult for everyone. Mr. Liaozi, what can you do to overcome this situation? Daohaogou?"

Wei Liao smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, Liao Zi thought it could be filled with soil."

With one word to wake up the dreamer, the king of Qin clapped his hands and praised him, saying: "Good idea. Wang Jian, you should send an order to the soldiers to fetch soil and put it in bags. If there is no bag, wrap it with clothes. Take the soil and rush to the On the edge of Haogou, throw it into the ditch. The widow wants to see if the water comes to the earth, or the earth floods it!"

This is indeed a wonderful way to cross the Haogou, Wang Jian gladly took the order and left.

"Stop attacking, wait until we get good soil." King Qin said to Meng Wu.

Meng Wu took the order and passed on the order. The Qin army waited for the enemy in strict formation and did not attack again.

Regarding Qin Jun's actions, Zhao Jun couldn't understand for a while, and some generals asked in puzzlement: "General, what does Bao Qin want to do?"

Regarding this question, Sima Shang also didn't understand, and said: "Whatever he does, if he dares to come, he will shoot me an arrow, and defending the camp is victory."

After less than a cup of tea, the Qin army reorganized and launched a new round of offensive.This time, the Qin army did not charge, but lined up in a neat battle formation, each with a shield, and slowly moved forward.

Although Qin Jun's advance was slow, it gave people a feeling of invincibility. General Zhao Jun involuntarily pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and became nervous for no reason.

Sima Shang frowned and deciphered Qin Jun's intention in his heart, how could he understand it in a while.Not long after, the Qin army had entered the range, and a general asked: "General, do you shoot?"

After a moment of contemplation, Sima Shang ordered: "Shoot. Use rockets to break the shields of the Qin army. The sooner the shields of the Qin army are broken, the better for us."

With one order, the arrows were like locusts, and the Qin army still resisted with shields, advancing without stopping.

The advancing Qin army suddenly uttered a cry, threw away the shield, two people carried a bag, or one person carried a bag, and rushed forward, throwing the bag in his hand towards Haogou, splashing water one after another.

"No, they are filling the ditch with soil!" A general blurted out in shock, with panic showing on his face.
