Chapter 1204: Carrying on the Past and Opening 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 and firmly blocked his attack. After all, a skinny camel was bigger than a horse. No matter how bad Zhao Jun was, it was still the one that once shocked the world. , a strong army that can compete with the Qin army, although it is not as good as it used to be, its basic skeleton is still there. Gou Yiyuan does not expect that a single attack can defeat them. Zhao Xilie still has a great deal to do with the army he personally leads. The strength is much stronger than the garrison in other places in Western Zhao. [To read the latest chapter of this book, please search 800] Baidu or Haosearch "" - basket. . . bar,

What made Gou Yi's scalp numb was the intensive attacks from Zhao Jun's long-range weapons. Although the opponents used the bed crossbows that they were familiar with, as we all know, the bed crossbows were heavy and had extremely slow firing speed. They were not suitable for scattered attacks and high-speed cavalry. The threat is not great. If a cavalryman is hit head-on by a bed crossbow, it only means that your bad luck is a headshot.

But now, in addition to the bed crossbow, the opponent's long-range weapons, the overwhelming sound of the crossbows with a special collapsing sound, caused him to suffer heavy losses. The first wave of attacks was caught off guard, and those who could rush in front of Zhao Jun's position The cavalry was already depleted and had no attack power against the enemy. They could only become victims of the swords and guns of the Western Zhao army.

Although Gou Yi is not familiar with this kind of weapon, he definitely knows what it is. Read the full text of Taking a Female Disciple on a Journey to the West. On this continent, only the army of the Han Dynasty is equipped with the divine machine crossbow. It can fire hundreds of crossbow arrows at a time. This divine machine crossbow can reach two-thirds of the crossbow. It is definitely the largest cavalry attack. Bad news.

But where did the Western Zhao army get so many divine machine crossbows? You know, in the past two years, Da Qin worked hard and tried its best, but they just secretly obtained dozens of divine machine crossbows. , all were sent to the workshop in Xianyang to study imitation. However, from what Gou Yi knows now, Da Qin’s own steel smelting level is far lower than that of the Han Dynasty, and this kind of divine machine crossbow has extremely high quality requirements for steel. . The imitation products are often scrapped after being shot more than ten times, and cannot be put into mass production at all, let alone equipped with the army.

But now, the whistling sound of this magical crossbow among the Western Zhao army. It can be determined that there are at least hundreds of such weapons.

Gou Yi's scalp was numb and he felt something was wrong. There is only one possibility for Western Zhao to obtain so many magical crossbows, and that is that 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.

When he thought of this, Gou Yi felt that something was wrong. If the Western Zhao army defected to the Han Dynasty, then this military rebellion in Jinyang County would definitely not be that simple. It might be a prepared plan against the Qin Dynasty. Zhao Xilie Why did he have the courage to challenge the powerful Qin army? Where did his confidence come from?

There is only one possibility, the Han army must have arrived at Jinyang County. Popular

What kind of army can in a short time,

Block all news suddenly appeared in Jinyang. The answer is self-evident, cavalry, powerful cavalry, they can even run faster than the spies of their own country.

Since the Xiongnu and Donghu surrendered to the Han, the Han cavalry has become the biggest worry for Qin and Chu. No one can compete with them in this aspect.

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 controlled almost all sources of war horses. In addition to obtaining war horses through some private Zhaos, Qin Chu also bred 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 countries, Qin and Chu have little interest in large-scale cavalry deployment. Only the Han people can have such luxury and can mobilize large quantities of cavalry at any time. .

Gou Yi's eyes were fixed on the map in front of him. If the Han cavalry has appeared in Jinyang, what do they want to do most?

Moving his fingers on the map, Gou Yi began to sweat on his head. Huo Di raised his head and shouted loudly, "Here comes someone!"

A tooth general quickly ran to Gou Yi.

"Immediately send people back to block the infantry, ask them to stop advancing immediately, build positions and prepare to defend." Gou Yi said sharply.

"Ah?" The tooth general obviously didn't react. Now that the first wave of cavalry attacks had failed, shouldn't it be time to push the infantry to speed up so that the infantry and cavalry can cooperate to defeat Zhao Jun?

"Second, send another person to report back to General Lu quickly, say, say..." Gou Yi paused for a moment, and finally made up his mind to make his own judgment: "It is said that Zhao Jun has surrendered to Han. The Jinyang Incident is 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 Gou Yi finished speaking, he found that General Ya was standing there dumbstruck and motionless. He couldn't help but became furious. He stepped forward and kicked the General to the ground, "Are you deaf? Why don't you go and do it quickly?" ”

"Yes, General Gou, General Gou will do it right away!" General Ya got up from the ground and ran out in a daze.

Gou Yi was anxiously turning around in the tent he had set up temporarily. It was very risky for him to make such a judgment based on a weapon. Once it was confirmed that the facts were not true, his future would be greatly affected. However, compared with the possible crisis, Gou Yi no longer had the mind to consider these things.

Now he had to think about how to break through the blockade of the Zhao army and reach the city of Jinyang, but how to withdraw safely. If all the speculations were true, there was no doubt that Yang Jie's 5,000 Qin troops in Jinyang City should no longer exist.

"Pass the order down, the left army will continue to attack, but the intensity of the attack will be reduced, mainly with diversionary attacks. The right army and the central army will begin to retreat quietly after dark. The three armies will cover each other alternately and break contact with the enemy."

Having made up his mind, Gou Yi immediately issued a series of orders. He was not worried that Zhao Xilie would find out his whereabouts, because even if he knew, he would not have the courage to chase him. You have arranged your battle formation, and I can do nothing about it. But if you dare to chase me, I will not be polite to you.

The cavalry on the left side of the Qin army has been maintaining the intensity of attacking every half an hour or so. The intensity of the attack is not as strong as the first wave of attacks. It seems fierce, but it is just scratching the itch. They retreat immediately when they encounter a little resistance. While the cavalry on the left side is attacking, the cavalry on the right side and the central army have begun to make definite preparations for retreat.

Winter nights always get dark very early, and the weather is extremely bad, with wind and snow all over the sky. Very early, the sky turned dark, and the Qin army's attack suddenly stopped. Under the cover of wind, snow and darkness, they left the battlefield and retreated towards Lubin. Gou Yi now only wants to meet up with his infantry, and then retreat to Lubin first, and then retreat to Hangu Pass.

Gou Yi's reaction was fast, but even faster than him were the two cavalrymen of the Han Dynasty. When Gou Yi guessed the truth and prepared to retreat, the two Han cavalrymen had already arrived at the attack position and launched a swift attack on the Qin army's infantry.

In the past two years, the Qin army almost regarded the territory of Zhao as its own backyard, coming and going as they pleased. This time, there were cavalrymen leading the way in front. From the generals to the flat-headed soldiers, no one thought that they would encounter a large-scale attack by enemy cavalry on their own territory.

In the snow and wind, more than 10,000 Qin infantrymen were dragged into a long team. The team that stretched for several miles was placed on the road in a long snake, which became an excellent target for the cavalry to attack. The whistling sound of the wind and snow obscured the sound of the cavalry approaching. When the first Han cavalry rushed into the Qin army and began to kill, the Qin army made almost no reaction.

Teams of cavalry were like the sickle of the god of death, wantonly harvesting the lives of Qin soldiers. Without a solid formation, long-range weapons and obstacles, the infantry against the cavalry was a tragic ending.

More than 10,000 cavalry against more than 15,000 infantry, and the cruel reality that the strength of both sides was almost the same, made the Qin army have no resistance at all. Less than an incense stick of time after the sudden attack began, the Qin army collapsed.

It cannot be said that the Qin soldiers were not brave. Under such unfavorable circumstances, they still fought bravely at first, but the huge gap in strength quickly destroyed everyone's confidence. If they persisted, it would not be brave, but death, and death in vain. The Qin soldiers were scattered. In the wind and snow, there were fleeing figures and chasing cavalry teams everywhere. The fleeing Qin soldiers were either caught up and killed by the Han cavalry, or they dropped their weapons and raised their hands to surrender to their opponents. More than 10,000 Qin soldiers were all defeated in a short period of time.

In the snow, Gao Yuan stood under the big flag, looking at the one-sided Qin army, and shook his head. Even the most elite troops would not be able to resist in such a situation.

"Pass the order, try to capture prisoners, don't kill them indiscriminately, these are all the best young and strong, and they will be the people of my Han Dynasty in the future!" Gao Yuan said. He gave this order because two foreign cavalry followed him this time. The leader of the Xiongnu cavalry, Guli, was originally the daughter of the Xiongnu royal court. The whole family was killed by the Qin people more than ten years ago. Only she escaped by chance. She hated the Qin people like bones. If she could kill one more person, she would never kill one less.

When night fell, the battle was over. A small half of the more than 10,000 Qin soldiers were killed, and a large half were taken prisoner. Only one in ten people could escape in the snow.

When Gou Yi evacuated Maoer Mountain and got rid of contact with Zhao Xilie, the infantry team he was dragging behind had been completely destroyed, and he was also walking towards a death trap step by step.

More than 10,000 Han cavalry were waiting for his arrival at leisure. To be continued. ~Search the basket* bar to read the full text of the following chapters
