Chapter 541: The rabbit is anxious and bites people
Ironically, when the Yum Qi army dismounted and jumped into the trenches, the situation of the battle took a significant reversal.
It must be noted that the basic strength of Qi is the infantry, and the best in the infantry will be selected into the Yum Infantry Army. Only the top in the Yum Infantry Army can enter the cavalry unit and learn how to ride a horse to fight.
These people are more powerful on the ground than on the horse.
As soon as they jumped into the narrow trench, they would form three people, with merit and defense; advance and retreat in an orderly manner, and cooperate with tacit understanding. They generally use a combination of swords and guns, with guns and main attacks, and swords to defend. The main attacks are unpredictable, like a poisonous dragon going out to sea; the defensive swords and water cannot be poured in, like a wheel flying. In a short while, those miscellaneous infantry soldiers were killed and suffered heavy casualties. Even the Jingshan Army struggled to support and retreated step by step. The battle situation was in danger for a while...
"Shield!" Seeing a spear stabbing several people in succession, the team leader roared, and a round shield came from the side, trying to seal the spear.
But the martial arts of the Yum Army were so powerful that it was beyond imagination. He shook his wrist and pulled out a spear. The tip of the gun was around the edge of the shield like a poisonous snake, and was stabbing the shield soldier's arm. With a scream, the soldier's shield fell to the ground.
The robe next to him rushed to rescue him, but was trapped by the spear, so he could only watch him open by another Qi soldier!
The sun has set in the west, and the sun is soft and not dazzling. The fierce battle is still in full swing on the Makino land.
Although the soldiers of the Jingshan Army Guard Battalion tried their best, they could not make up for the shortcomings of absolute strength. The Yum Cavalry fell one after another, but they were not very rare, and they even beat the originally solid defense line like the tide.
When the Qi army's scattered cavalry finally bypassed the two wings of the chariot formation and prepared to encircle them, he heard a rapid gong sound, and the soldiers of the Jingshan Army quickly gave up their positions and retreated from the reserved passage into the last line, without giving their opponents a chance to make dumplings.
Seeing that he lost another time, the Yum Cavalry, who had enough of his cowardice, went completely and continued to rush forward without stopping. This time he faced the Wuhan Iron and Steel Car Formation again.
When I saw the strict Wuhan Iron and Steel Chariot formation, the Yum Cavalry all had numb scalps, and many people even started to retching. The aesthetic fatigue was really untreatable...
"Bag ball! You can't have some fresh ones!" Qi Jun cursed one after another.
Even if you scold me, you have to continue fighting. The Yum Cavalry, who is already familiar with the road, directly surrounded the two wings, and as a result... they encountered a continuous trapped pit. Shi Wei dug this time, which was obviously more attentive than the first time. It was not only deep but wide, but also quite long. It was not so much a pit, but more accurate as a trench.
The fierce Yum Army was trapped in a pit like dumplings. "Is it still over?" The soldiers of the Yum Cavalry rushed collectively and shouted: "Is this a war or a house to play!!" From the beginning to now, almost two thousand brothers have fallen down, but they have never even touched the human hair. They have never fought such a cowardly battle in their life!
When the Bodhisattva heard their call, he immediately gave some fresh things to the masters. He saw a row of Qin troops suddenly popping out of the next trench, holding long spears and poking them indiscriminately. Then he heard a slap sound, and countless cavalrymen were caught and killed.
"Linking war horses together is like connecting warships together," Qin Lei smiled gracefully, "It was just a joke." But he said regretfully, how pleasant it would be if he dressed up as a feather fan and Lunhuang scarf and said this...
I saw that around the royal flag, there were several trenches that were not too deep but were sufficient. These trenches were well connected and could make the infantry enter and exit freely. But for the Yum Army's serial horses, it was nothing short of an insurmountable natural barrier.
Speaking of which, Zhao Wujiu sent his trump card to force him to retreat or even seize Qin Lei's royal flag and restore the morale of the Qin army to zero. But he never expected that he was proud and killed all the invincible Yum Cavalry in Qin State, which became an absolute joke in front of a group of infantry.
This can only be said that "there is a shortcoming, and the strengths are a shortcoming." Even Zhao Wujiu, who is awesome, has made too one-sided mistakes in the development of cavalry... In theory, the serial horses he developed against the Qin light and heavy cavalry were still very effective. Otherwise, he could not even pick up several imperial guards of Qin and gain an unbeaten reputation.
But everything has its advantages and disadvantages. It is like a mountain with heavy armored cavalry, and it is not too heavy to connect them. You know, Yum Shenggong's move is based on the Qin cavalry head-on and infantry as decorations. He naturally takes advantage of the cavalry hedge head-on. But when he encounters Qin Lei, a guy who has no prejudice against infantry and is well versed in the art of cavalry, how can he not suffer a big loss?
The Yum Cavalry, which was blocked by the trenches, was quite helpless. They were also struggling with the Qin army's waves of stone bullet attacks, so they did not dare to stay by the trenches, so they had to retreat for the time being to find a way.
Several cavalry generals looked devastated. They could not understand why the serial cavalry, which was once powerful, looked so ridiculous today?
Some people who are pessimistic have even begun to doubt the significance of the existence of this army...
"Everyone raise your head!" Looking at the dusty appearance of his generals, the deputy general in charge of the army was angry, and waved the whip and whipped them all, shouting: "The General is still waiting for our good news! If you want to die, you have to wait to seize the flag and die!" He sighed and said, "We have signed a military order. Are you all tired of living?"
When the generals heard this, they immediately cheered up and said, "General, what do you think you should do? Let's listen to you."
"I want to hear about you..." The deputy general said angrily: "One person is short, everyone should make a decision."
The generals also knew that the fire was burning, so they no longer had their reserve and used their brains to figure out solutions. Someone said, "Why don't we pave the way?"
"Are you dead when you are in the trench?" The deputy general said in a bad tone: "How could someone let you pave the road?"
"Then we will send some cavalry to dismount and occupy the trench first," someone interrupted, "and then lay the board!"
"Yes!" The deputy general slapped his thigh and said, "What did we do before we came to the Yum Cavalry?"
"It's better to be a soldier..." The person next to him didn't understand his intentions and asked stupidly: "What's the matter?"
"Why can we be selected as the Yum Cavalry?" The more we thought about it, the more we felt that this matter was reliable. Before the subordinates could speak, they shone with their eyes: "Because we are the best infantry! Right!"
"Yes!" the generals shouted proudly: "We have always been the best!"
"Do you still have confidence in infantry war?" The deputy general finally revealed his mystery, which caused the generals to take a breath and said, "General, do you want us to dismount?"
The deputy general knew well that 'It is better to provoke the general', so he made a disdainful expression and said, "Aren't you afraid?"
Sure enough, the gang of old men under his command could not resist the excitement and shouted loudly: "How is it possible? We are all the best among infantry!" "The infantry of Qin State is even worse than their navy. How can we compare with us?"
"Then let's get off the horse and fight!" The deputy general said with a ferocious look on his face: "Let them taste the power of our Yum Army!"
"Yes!" The generals responded in unison, obviously all agreed with the decision.
I just don’t know what kind of expression will be when Yum Sheng gets the report...
Blood splattered the spearman's face. He stuck out his tongue and licked his cheeks. He shivered in intoxication. The spear in his hand suddenly accelerated and injured three Qin soldiers in succession.
The gunman laughed bloodthirstyly and was about to continue committing a murder, but was attacked by a sharp sword. Before he could react, he saw the autumn-like sword slid down the barrel of the gun quickly. The gunman couldn't withdraw his gun, and was cut off his four fingers holding the gun by the flashing sword.
Before he could feel the pain, the gunman felt a chill in his throat and blood gushed out. He wanted to scream but couldn't make any sound, and then he knelt softly on the ground.
The swordsman held the blood-dropping sword horizontally, looked at the Qi army in front of him coldly, and said to the person behind him: "The prince has an order, you can retreat!" Seeing that it was a master of worship in the royal palace, the soldiers of Jingshan Army jumped out of the trench and retreated like a tide.
The Qi army was about to pursue, but when the swordsman roared, a team of black guards wearing fine black chain mail and red necklaces on the helmet came out of the crowd and set up a formation in the narrow trenches.
It is not the Mandarin duck array, but its variant...the Five Elements array.
The black-clothed guards set up a formation in units of five. The wolf-hun soldiers stepped forward and stood side by side with a shield soldier to form the first line of defense. Two spearmen followed him, and a short-sword hand behind the palace, firmly guarding the passage.
The soldiers of Qi army waved their spears and launched several fierce attacks. However, they had no choice but to find that they could neither attack nor defend against the Five Elements Formation... As long as they were touched by the wolf, they would be caught by countless barbs on them, and they would be pierced by spears in an instant! Although the Qi army shouted with guns and attacked desperately, they had no gains except falling a hole.
Seeing that the situation was extremely critical, Qin Lei had to send his last reserve team... his personal soldiers, Black Guard, to cover the murdered friendly forces.
But the number of black-clothed guards is too small. Although they have an absolute advantage in the local area, they will soon find it difficult to face the endless enemies on all sides...
‘Beep…’ The sharp whistle sounded, and the black guards attacked desperately, and beat the Qi army to the point of being in a hurry and retreated one after another. However, they took the opportunity to leave the battle group and fought and retreated calmly.
After teasing the ace of Qi, Qin Lei's king flag had to move!
It has to be admitted that this was Qin Lei's mistake in judgment... He regarded the combat power of the Jingshan infantry as the average level of the Qin infantry. He thought that he had 30,000 infantry and 60,000 civilians to help him, so he could defend the central army. However, he did not expect that his infantry was so overwhelmed that when he reached the real sword and gun battle, he immediately suffered heavy casualties and had no power to fight back. I really don't know how the boss and the Li family trained the infantry!
Yum is imminent, and he is still in a grudge, which shows that his nerves are so thick that they are really different from ordinary people.
"Move the flag!" Retracting his mind and focusing on it, Qin Lei ordered in a deep voice: "Forward!" He had no choice but to command the commander's flag was the fighting spirit of the army. If he could not be as stable as Mount Tai, he could only move forward bravely!
The black tiger roaring flag slowly moved towards the battlefield, causing the Qin cavalry who were rushing to the right wing of the Qi army to cheer in unison, and even forgot about fatigue and pain, and burst out with a more fierce fighting will!
Two of these handsome generals are particularly prominent, one is Bo Shang Saiyang in a white robe, and the other is Chu Qianjun in a white robe. The two danced the mace and the caltrop bones like meteors, and there was no enemy under their hands. They rushed left and right and suddenly entered a state of no one; taking the general's head was like taking a pupil!
Under the leadership of the two, the Jingshan cavalry fought bloody battles, forcing Zhao Wushang to organize the defense line that Zhao Wushang had been easily organized, and once again scattered. The Tiance Army and the Longxiang Army, who had breathed a little breath, took the opportunity to cover up and kill them, completely crippling the right wing of the Qi army like a wind sweeping the broken clouds!
The reason why the Jingshan Army fought so hard was because they saw the black tiger flag moving forward... It means that the prince's central army encountered an irresistible danger!
Zhao Wujiu kept staring at the Qin army's battle flag. When he saw the flagpole shaking slightly, his grim expression finally loosened a little... But in the next moment, his smile frozen on his old face.
He never expected that the boy opposite him would advance instead of retreating!
"It's really a newborn calf who is not afraid of a tiger..." Zhao Wujiu smiled helplessly and looked at his right wing worriedly. As expected, he saw the Qin army's morale boost, and he killed the two reorganized Qi soldiers, shaking the fallen flowers and water!
"Kill the master's father to death by random punches!" The name is Boasting, but it was actually boasting. Zhao Wujiu waved his hand and called the messenger over and said, "I order Zhao Wushang not to force the elimination of the Qin army, just stop them from breaking through!" When the infantry fights against the cavalry, if they want to attack, they can only trade their lives. But if they want to defend, they can still form a formation to achieve it reliably.
Zhao Wujiu's intention was very clear, that is, to capture the king first! Block the main force of the Qin army behind the formation, concentrate all his efforts to seize the Qin general flag first...
Qin Lei encountered great trouble. He didn't expect that the Yum cavalry would get off the horse faster. Although the Yum cavalry did not dare to approach the slowly retreating black guards for a while, everyone knew what they were waiting for... Once they left these twists and turns and went to the open place, they would siege the Black Guards in large numbers! It is said that a good tiger could not hold the wolves, so they didn't believe that those only five hundred black guards could still be held.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Shi Gan knelt down on one knee and said, "Please leave quickly, Bei Zhi lead the black-clothed guard to break the rear!" Cutting off the rear would mean that the whole person was killed. It was hard for him to say so.
"Fart!" Qin Lei didn't appreciate him at all and sneered: "You underestimate me too much." He said, stretched out his hand and pointed at the Qi army slowly approaching, and said: "The Lone King has a plan that can make everyone escape unscathed, do you believe it?"
Shi Gan thought to himself: 'Ancestor, when is it time, and he is still keeping him here.' Nodded quickly and said: "Prince, please!"
Qin Lei patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Did you see the earth slope in the east?" Shi Gan followed the prince's gaze and indeed saw a small earth slope more than ten feet high not far to the east.
He nodded and heard the prince continue, "You ride on your horse, take the battle flag on it, and shake it hard on the slope, and we will be safe."
Shi Gan was stunned and said in a stern voice: "You are not playing with me..." Although the prince has been promoting himself as Lu Dongbin, as his number one confidant, Shi Gan naturally would not expect him to borrow the apricot yellow flag of Taishang Laojun.
"When is it!" Qin Lei frowned and said, "Go quickly, it's too late."
Shi Gan thought it was true, and the prince could not joke at this time. He then replied, "Which flag?"
"Whatever..." Qin Lei said irresponsibly.
The conversation between the two attracted the master guards beside him, but it made Qin Lei Niu glar at him and cursed roughly: "What are you looking at? Why don't you run away quickly!" The guards laughed and guarded the prince slowly heading north.
The Yum Cavalry chased the black-clothed guard and left the trench. 'It feels good to have a broad vision!' The leading deputy general spat fiercely: "Brothers, we should have avenge and revenge!" The Yum Sawed together, and quickly re-arrayed, preparing to encircle these hateful 'heedgehogs' in large numbers.
"General, look!" The deputy general's personal soldiers suddenly pointed to the east.
When the general heard this, he saw a Qin general immediately above the earth slope, waving a fiery red battle flag... as if summoning reinforcements.
The deputy general's heart tightened and said in a lost voice: "Look at what's wrong with the east?"
A group of personal soldiers looked around, and a sharp-eyed screamed: "There is smoke and dust over there!"
Everyone quickly looked in the direction the man pointed, and indeed saw a team of black cavalry appearing on the horizon with sunlight on the east side! Looking at the smoke and dust rising, there were at least 10,000 or 20,000 people!
After asking for an appointment to see the time when the brigade of cavalry arrived on the battlefield, the deputy general was shocked and sweated in a cold sweat, and ordered loudly: "Stop moving forward!"
"Stop moving forward, stop moving forward..." the messenger shouted while running wildly behind the team.
After a long time, the soldiers stopped slowly and looked at the center of the team for no reason, not knowing what was going on.
"Set up!" The second order arrived soon. Because of the glorious history of defeating the eight imperial guards of Qin, when he saw the Qin cavalry, the first reaction of the deputy general was to "Set up the horse and fight"!
"General, we have all landed in the west!" The personal soldier reminded him kindly, but he received a whip from the deputy general. He only heard him curse and said, "I'm not blind! The whole army turned back, the target horse team, and advance at full speed!"
Although the Yum Army was quite upset about this order, they still implemented it resolutely. They turned around quickly, wearing heavy armor, and still walked as fast as they were dismounting.
Looking at Qi Jun who had retreated, the black-clothed guards who were already holding a decisive belief in death were stunned, and they all looked back at Qin Lei with the eyes of looking at the gods.
"That's a big deal!" Qin Lei waved his hand with a stern face and said in a deep voice: "Are you still yelling?"
"Okay!" The black-clothed guards responded and rushed towards the prince...the war horses beside him. After a while, they all got on the horses and grinned at the prince, "You have been waiting for a long time."
"No rules!" Qin Lei laughed and cursed, and said to the guard next to him: "Call your commander back..." As he said that, he glanced at Shi Gan, who was still shaking the flagpole, and said: "He looks a little stupid."
After saying that, he turned around and ordered the chariot to start, and secretly wiped his sweat while the person was not paying attention. I don’t know if there was an “empty city plan” in history, but for a poor man without any reserve team, he could only do it.
Yes, he played a trick. Thinking that before "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was released, he shamelessly plagiarized the rare masterpiece of Zhang Yide, a man from Yan. He ordered Gou Ji to secretly take the black-armored cavalry to the woods in the distance, cut some branches and tied them to the horse's tail and drag them. In this way, two thousand cavalrymen lined up in a row, and the smoke and dust raised behind him were enough to simulate five to ten times the force. This was similar to the fight between two gangsters, and if they couldn't beat him, he shouted: "Don't leave if you have a habit, my buddy is here!" He just bluffed.
But whether this move is useful is not something that Qin Lei can decide alone. It also depends on whether the other party is good at cooperating and willing to be fooled... This is related to the IQ of the Yum Cavalry Head. If that person can calculate, he will definitely calculate that even if Qin Lei treats his pants, he will not be able to raise 10,000 or 20,000 cavalry. The reason why he asked Shi Gan to run to a high place to shake the flag was that he hoped that Qi Jun would follow his ideas.
Fortunately, the deputy general didn't like to study and was very insensitive to numbers. After being fooled by Qin Lei, he finally did not disappoint his expectations. Seeing the Qin army's actions, he finally made a wrong judgment... he believed that the Qin army's ambush appeared, and then ordered the entire army to retreat and look for horses.
After going all the way, I spent a lot of effort. Taking advantage of this rare opportunity, the Qin army's 60,000 civilians and 30,000 infantrymen could finally escape from heaven and hide in the east of the battlefield.
The black-clothed guard also gained a temporary breathing opportunity. Together with the black-armored cavalry who cut off their tails, they surrounded the prince's banner and slowly moved forward, wanting to meet with the large army.
Zhao Wujiu's eyes never left the Qin army's commander flag, so he naturally saw the Qin army teasing his trump card. However, in this era, communication is basically yelling. When the messengers come over to pass the message, the daylily will be cold.
So he had no instructions, but just patiently watched his subordinates' stupid performance.
But he didn't just watch the fun, but he still saw some tricks. Touching his beard and thinking for a while, Zhao Wujiu suddenly laughed and said, "Boy, it's not good for a woman."
As he said that, he was energetic and said, "I ordered Wu Zhilong to attack the Qin infantry and civilians!" He muttered softly, "I still take civilians with them in war, and I am looking for death..."
"Yes!" The messenger left quickly and conveyed the Duke's order to the final reserve team.
"The commander has an order. Your troops will attack immediately and attack the Qin infantry and civilian team!" The commander soon arrived at the central army that had been holding their troops unmoved, and sent a deep voice to a general who had closed his eyes and rested.
Chapter completed!
