Chapter 1512: Han Banner World 202 Decisive Battle 16

The white horse stood reining up, his face as gloomy as if a thunderstorm was about to fall. At the top of the city of Bin County, a flag was flying high, with an eye-catching white character on it. Among the Han army, there was only one senior general named Bai, and that was Bai Yucheng, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Second Military Region.

The top of the city was now filled with densely packed Han soldiers. Hurrying and hurrying, he was finally a step too late. Most of the Han army's reinforcements arrived, blocking his retreat to Xianyang.

On the top of the city, Bai Yucheng was proudly spreading his legs and standing on the two battlements. He was looking forward to the scene and was high-spirited. The previous dejection of being ready to run away was now gone. He was looking at the opposite side with pride. Bai Qi in the distance raised his hand high, raised his fist towards Bai Qi, and slowly extended his middle finger. On top of the city, the Han soldiers burst into laughter.

Bai Qi had no reaction, but Lu Yi was so angry that he rushed up to Bai Qi and shouted: "General Bai, give the order to attack! Earlier the Huns cavalry division was still trying their best to stop us, which shows that these Han troops have just We are just a tired force, we have no chance of victory."

Bai Qi slowly raised his head, turned around slowly, and pointed behind him: "Look, they are tired warriors, aren't we? Aren't you?"

Lu Yi led his troops to fight a bloody battle with the Xiongnu Cavalry Division. Although Guli's Xiongnu Cavalry Division was forced to retreat in the end, the losses were actually far greater than the opponent's. Not only did the Xiongnu Cavalry Division's personal combat skills far exceed that of the Qin army, even in cooperative operations, In battle, they are not inferior to the Qin people, and their equipment is of higher quality than the Qin army's cavalry. Take the armor and stomach on their bodies as an example, the Qin army only wears leather armor and rides on horses. It was impossible to wear heavy iron armor, as the war horses would not last at all, but the Han army was covered in iron armor. Lu Yi also had one of those armors, which he secretly obtained from Han. In the new army, all the senior officers of the cavalry had one. It looked dark, but Lu Yi knew that it was not just iron armor, because it was very light, and after scraping off the outer coating, it was actually shiny on the inside. No matter how long you leave it there, there will be no rust. I heard that in Han Dynasty, this new material was called soft steel.

The weight is not much heavier than the leather armor, but the protective ability is greatly improved. Although it still cannot block the full blow of the lance, it can greatly reduce the damage. However, the leather armor worn by Qin Bing is more vulnerable to the opponent's scimitar. Under it, it is like paper and can be cut in half easily. If Bai Qi's infantry brigade hadn't followed up. As the fierce battle continued for a long time, Lu Yi knew that he would be the one who couldn't hold on in the end.

They are no different from Han soldiers. Bai Qi's new army was also rushing forward with all its strength, sprinting with all its strength, only relying on its breath to support it. However, when they arrived at Binxian City and saw the densely packed Han soldiers above the city, they were already ready. This breath was released immediately. Although he was forced to support himself by the military order, the feeling of exhaustion from the heart was clearly revealed.

And Bai Qi needs to think of it. It's not just that, behind him. There was another group of Han troops that had been following them, which was the rebel army from Bashu.

Although it is an insurrectionary army, the combat effectiveness of this army has long been no less than that of the regular army. The joining of too many Han army officers and the import of countless weapons made Bai Qi have to worry about whether Zhanbin County could not be defeated in one fell swoop. If it becomes a protracted war, people will gather around Bin County and annihilate them.

The Han army will receive a steady stream of reinforcements, but now he is fighting alone. There is no need to expect Xianyang to send reinforcements, and Lu Chao does not have any reinforcements to send.

"We only have one way to go now." Bai Qi turned his horse's head and walked back lonely, "Let's meet Xu Yahua. I hope we still have a chance to meet them."

Bai Qi already felt that something was wrong. Since the Han army had deployed troops to Bin County to intercept him, did he really have a chance to join forces with Xu Yahua? If not, it will be self-evident what fate awaits you. The Han army will pounce on you like hungry wolves from all directions and bite you until all the blood in your body is drained.

"Lu Yi, with your troops as the vanguard, let's go!" Bai Qi did not dare to delay at all, and could only let the soldiers rush on with fatigue, even if they walked slowly, they had to walk first.

He was fighting in his own country, and now he was stepping on the land of the Qin State. However, he felt as if he was in the center of the enemy's country. Looking around, he saw that there were enemy armies in front, behind, left, and right, slowly squeezing him. Bai Qi felt his chest was tight and he had a feeling of being out of breath.

There was a time when Da Qin was still very powerful!

His eyes were slightly red again, and he didn't turn his head to look to the side, not wanting the soldiers to see his red eyes. Or, I will never be able to step into Xianyang again.

Baiyu, a little-known town, is destined to become the center of this war. When Chen Bin stepped into this small town, the entire town had disappeared without a trace. The army arrived, The people here had already fled after hearing the news, leaving only an empty town.

"Great." Chen Bin smiled and said: "This saves us a lot of trouble. Now, take action immediately and set up a defensive position. Here, we will become a nail and nail it here."

The 19th Army immediately became busy, felling wood, collecting stones, digging soil, and demolishing houses. At this moment, the 20,000-strong army turned into engineers and devoted themselves to the intense process of building fortifications.

Chen Bin had to make his defenses stronger and stronger, because he was very likely to be attacked from two sides, Bai Qi on one side and Xu Yahua on the other.

Baiyu is a small place, but its geographical location is very important. It is firmly stuck at the middle node of the two armies. With Baiyu as the center, Chen Bin placed one of his divisions in Baiyu, about five miles away from the town in the east. Yangcun, one branch is located in Jiaowan Village in the west direction, while he is in charge of Baiyu. Chen Bin played a little trick in the layout of the defense line. He exposed a gap in the northwest. It seemed to be a flaw in the entire defensive position, but if the attacker really wanted to make a breakthrough from here, when they highlight this gap Later, you will find that you have fallen into a nightmare trap. Chen Bin has arranged a pocket behind this opening.

Killing and injuring attackers in large numbers will effectively demoralize the attackers. This is the experience Chen Bin has gained from many such combat battles, and these seemingly casual arrangements can often have miraculous effects. Just as Yang Dasha believed that although Mei Hua was weak, he was the best at fighting tough battles and had the strongest will, Meng Chong also believed that under his command, Chen Bin was the best candidate to fight. As a former general of the Yan Army who served highly, Chen Bin was also a senior general in the Han Empire. He may not be able to win by surprise, nor may he have any whimsical ideas, and he always seems to be on the right track, but for a fighter, the most rare thing is this. He does not rush forward, is not greedy for attack, and adheres to one idea to the end. That's blocking you. This is also the most troublesome type of leading general for attackers. Used in the right place, it can shine like a gem. On the battlefield of Donghu, Chen Bin led more than a thousand soldiers, and the snow and water formed a city of ice. He actually withstood the attack of tens of thousands of Donghu people, which became a miracle in the history of the war against Donghu. It was also Because of Chen Bin's tenacity, he created a good opportunity for the Zhengdong Army to eliminate the opponent.

Now, Chen Bin is here again.

Gu Li also appeared in Baiyu with her remaining less than 3,000 cavalry. Next, the Huns cavalry division will also appear as a party in Baiyu's death battle.

"We had a tough battle with Bai Qi's cavalry." Seeing Chen Bin's surprised look, Gu Liyan said concisely and concisely: "I lost a lot of people. About a thousand people died on the spot, and some were injured. I sent them away and brought the rest with me.”

"It seems that Bai Qi's army can still fight a tough battle." Chen Bin frowned and said thoughtfully.

"Yes, the impression they give me is that they are like the Eastern Conquest Army a few years ago." Gu Li said: "They are more difficult to deal with than Xu Yahua's troops. You have to be careful."

Chen Bin smiled: "This time, I am the home court." He patted a small cannon beside him, "Mr. Gu, do you know how many of these things I brought with me this time?"

"How powerful is this little thing?" Gu Li asked curiously. It was a little different in appearance from the artillery in her image.

"Even though he is small, he is very powerful. It is specially used to deal with infantry, and the firing speed is very fast. The emperor gave him a new name, called mortar." Chen Bin said with a smile, and took out a cannonball as if it were a treasure. Pass it to Gu Li.

Different from the previous black and round cannonballs, the cannonball in front of me is completely made of steel. The streamlined body is shining with golden color, and it looks very beautiful.

"This is the latest infantry gun, which uses a primer trigger. This is the latest masterpiece of our Dahan Ordnance Research Institute. It was inspired by the latest muskets from Fengrui Arsenal. This thing is much more convenient to shoot than artillery. Yes, the disadvantage is that the range is shorter.”

"Mortars?" Gu Li said with a smile: "The emperor loves to name these things. By the way, have you heard about the white phosphorus bombs at Hangu Pass?"

The smile on Chen Bin's face changed slightly, "I'd rather never come across that thing in my life. And I don't want to see him on the battlefield." He shook his head repeatedly, "It's too miserable."

"What's so terrible about killing the enemy?" Gu Li disagreed.

Chen Bin sighed slightly: "If you had heard about the tragic situation at that time, you wouldn't think so. Twenty thousand people fell dead in the city in less than an hour. Gu Li, in front of you, there are 20,000 hunters. You can kill them in an hour." Can you finish cutting?"

"What kind of thing is so powerful?" Gu Li was shocked.

"It is very powerful, but it also has certain limitations during the attack. Qian Zhongyi's army huddled in Hangu Pass. In order to avoid our artillery fire, they built countless anti-gun caves. These turtle caves eventually became It became their burial place, this white phosphorus thing, hey!”

"Forget it, let's not talk about this. Agu Huaien will also come, but which side is he on Xu Yahua? You will be a target to attract the enemy's firepower this time." Gu Li laughed.

"But this is also the last time." Chen Bin smiled and said: "And this time, I know we will win without a doubt." (To be continued.)
