Chapter three hundred and fifty seventh traps
Xiang Yu is invading!
And continuously break through several defense lines of the Qin army.
During the Chu army's full efforts to launch an attack, the Qin army's response, overall, was a very passive situation, which was very different from the military guiding ideology of "using me as the main body and promoting my advantage" advocated by Li Yuan. Where is the advantage of the Qin army when facing the Qin army's crazy attack? What method is used to reflect it?
The problem was placed in front of Li Yuan and the generals. The Chu army's waves of attacks were like layers of waves, constantly rushing to the Qin army's defense line. Every time a layer was broken, the morale of the Chu army increased a little, and Xiang Yu even raised his arms and shouted, shouting that his generals and soldiers would wipe out all the Qin people.
Under the Qin army's flag.
Li Yuan and Li Zuoche surrounded a simple sand table made of sand, and were deducing the changes in the current situation step by step. Every time the Chu army took a step forward, the small red flag representing a step, and the corresponding small black flag originally in that position would be removed.
A must-have for modern marching and fighting: sand table.
The first-level generals of the Qin army have been popularized, and resourceful generals like Li Zuoche are even more surprised by the live broadcast of the sand table.
A good memory is worse than a bad pen.
Sand, soil, and small wooden poles are all things that can be seen everywhere. The Qin army even did not even need to carry it, so they could restore the entire battlefield situation in a short period of time. Once they wanted to withdraw, they only needed to let the soldiers destroy the sand table with a few shovels so that they could not see anything.
"Wuhou, Xiang Chu has approached the fifth line of defense of our central army. The last general thought that he could not wait any longer. If Xiang Ji went crazy, our army would be unable to save it." After listening to several unfavorable military reports, Li Zuoche could not sit still and said with a slightly nervous expression.
Li Yuan nodded and said in a cold tone: "Our army on the southern line has now reduced its strength and has begun to move closer to our central army. In this way, Xiang Ji must speed up the investment of more troops to break through. Let us wait a little longer, and wait until all the elite forces of the Chu army enter the encirclement and then deal a heavy blow. At that time, let Xiang Ji know that the ambush that attacked our Qin Dynasty is not so easy to enter and exit."
This battle of the chasm.
Li Yuan's command and judgment ability were very mediocre. Judging from the current war process, there were many similarities with the Julu War. The command of the Qin army seemed mechanical and rigid, lacking decisive response. But in fact, all these deceptions were just to deepen Xiang Yu's impression.
The most glorious pinnacle of Xiang Yu's life was that when the princes were watching the walls, he led the Chu army alone to defeat more than 400,000 Qin troops led by Zhang Han.
This glory is like a shackle, which makes Xiang Yu immersed in it and cannot be liberated for his whole life. Psychologically, if the Qin army set up a battlefield situation similar to Julu on the battlefield, it is to lure Xiang Yu into the trap of fierce fighting. In order to deal with the Chu army's final fierce attack, Li Yuan even prepared a variety of counterattack methods.
7:00 a.m.
The Chu army took three minutes to break the fourth and third line of defense of the Qin army. The vanguard arrow was only one thousand feet away from the Qin Zhongjun. At the same time, Li Zhongxiang, who was returning to the aid, was launching a restrained attack on the rear wing of the Chu army. The war between Qin and Chu was already here, and it was already a situation of dying.
There is no possibility of retreating, unless you give up your subordinates and run away alone, as for whether you can escape in the end, it depends on luck. Li Yuan did not think about letting Xiang Yu go back from the beginning of the battle between the Honggu. This civil war between the princes lasted for seven years, and for Qin, which was about to face the evil wolf Huns on the grassland, there was not much time for adjustment.
"The left chariot obeys the order: You will lead the chariot troops to fight and order the throwing troops to fight!"
"Order: a part of the cavalry detours from the flanks and attacks the infantry brigade of the Chu army."
"The rest of the soldiers will fight with me!"
The commands followed the flying figures of the central army scouts to all directions. At this time, the Qixing Star in the east had risen and the sky began to brighten. The Qin army camp became excited because of the Chu army's sudden invasion. Red and black were like two completely different torrents, constantly consuming their energy during the fight until one side withdrew.
Xiang Yu rushed directly to the central army of the Qin army. With the severe situation where two lines of defense were left, Li Yuan also actively dispatched troops and prepared to face the vanguard of the Chu army. In addition to the 7,000 elite troops of the central army in the headquarters, Li Yuan also recruited Li Zuoche's rear chariot troops to join the defensive battle group.
Chariot.
It is an ancient means of combat.
During the Spring and Autumn Period when horse riding was not popular, generals often stood in a carriage pulled by a double horse or a four horse, holding the shaft of the carriage with one hand and holding the sword with the other hand, posing with a style that no one else could be better than me. Of course, if we talk about the demeanor of the chariot in the battlefield during wartime, there would be no other person except the Duke Xiang of Song who dared not attack to show his kindness to show his kindness.
At the end of the Warring States Period, with the reform of King Wuling of Zhao's "Hu Clothing, Horseback Camera" and the deepening of the integration of the people of the Central Plains and the northern nomadic peoples, horse riding gradually replaced chariots and became the mainstream on the battlefield, and the chariots representing an era were gradually submerged in the torrent of history.
However, after the revival of the New Qin Dynasty, out of preference for later armored tank troops, the chariot was retained as a special military. Correspondingly, a large number of craftsmen who built chariots changed to make vehicles for long-distance transportation in Chidao. This area is huge, which looks like an inflatable golden-bellied car with a nice and appropriate name: pregnant women.
There is nothing wrong.
The pregnant woman's belly is loaded with enough supplies to supply the troops. On the outer layer of protection, there are copper nails at the connection between the wooden boards. At the same time, in order to prevent a fire incident, the surface of the wooden board is also coated with a thick layer of tung oil.
On both sides of the car body, there are several round holes that can accommodate the launch of crossbow arrows. This round hole is not big, and the crossbowmen in the car do not even need to aim at the mountain, because even if they see the target, they cannot change the shooting angle of the crossbow arrow. In other words, this is a fixed crossbow arrow shooting position.
This round hole shooting position can also be replaced with a spear stab when the enemy is approaching. When the enemy soldiers try to approach the body of the car, extremely sharp spears stabbed out. It is conceivable what the outcome will be if they are stabbed.
If the configuration of a chariot alone plus crossbowman and spearman is not a novel invention, it is not a novel invention. What makes people feel new is that this chariot is composed of four wheels, and it is not just a single layer, but a double-layer structure. The cerebral belly is the lower layer, and there is also a platform-like structure similar to the watchtower on it.
The platform is condescending.
Once it appears on the plain, it is like a huge advantage of looking down at the opponent out of thin air. On the platform, nearly 600 barbarians from Xiaoyue Branch opened their eyes wide and looked murderous.
fight.
It's nothing more than a game of competing for who is better than the trump card. After Xiang Yu's trump card was revealed, Li Yuan also began to send his own powerful troops composed of multiple troops.
——.
The Chu army broke through seven formations in a row.
Xiang Yu roared angrily, suddenly pinning the reins of the black horse, looking back at the Chu soldiers under his command.
A red torrent was sweeping the black tide. Although there were Qin people around, these Chu soldiers were red with their eyes and waving their weapons, just like evil ghosts.
"Haha, boys, go with someone to slaughter Qin dogs." Xiang Yu laughed loudly, and shouted with all his strength. He tried hard to lift the blood-stained halberd high. In fact, a beating heart in his chest was about to collapse into his throat. The salty smell in his throat and the bloody smell on his body intertwined, making him like a plague god coming from the sky, unstoppable and invincible.
Under Xiang Yu's crotch, the black black horse opened its mouth wide, panting heavily, and rushing continuously, making the battle-hardened horse unable to bear it.
The best age of a horse is three to five or six years old. The age of a black horse is nearly ten years old. In other words, its prime has passed and is gradually aging.
People are trapped and horses are exhausted, and the morale of the generals is slightly lowered while they are being wiped out.
However, Xiang Yu still had to launch a strong attack. His persistence and persistence once won him victory, but today, facing Li Yuan, who was more confident and powerful in his careful planning, there was no possibility of breakthrough on Xiang Yu's path forward.
Amid the shouts, there were several Chu army captains who were eager to make meritorious contributions. The captain shouted, and raised Yu Yong to cross Xiang Yu's horse's head and ran towards the next line of defense of the Qin army.
Unfortunately, their red waves go quickly and return quickly.
Before Xiang Yu could react, a large area of Chu troops in front had already fallen. In front of Xiang Yu, a series of wooden chariots with a height of two-story house suddenly appeared.
In the holes of the "house", the crossbow arrows that shot out quickly faced the Chu army's dense charge formations, almost without aiming. In just a quarter of an hour, the number of people who fell from the Chu army reached more than 200. What's more serious is that these Chu soldiers were all brave soldiers who could block ten.
"Overlord, the Qin people's crossbows are too powerful. Our army can't rush over, so it's better to turn..." A Chu army captain rushed to Xiang Yu with blood on his face, and reported in a hoarse voice.
"You, you are afraid of death - how can you be the general of Xiang Ji?" Xiang Yu shouted angrily, and a halberd poked out, pulling the anxious general Chu to the horse.
"Prepare the torch quickly and burn the baggage chariot that blocks the road."
"The Qin Gou has no reinforcements, and even the baggage troops have come out. Everyone should increase their strength." The Chu army generals shouted one after another. After the initial panic, the Chu people also came up with a way to deal with the war chariots and crossbow arrows.
"Bor!"
"Boop--!"
Just as the Chu army was shouting, the sound of heavy objects breaking through the air in the air was like huge rocks falling from the sky, with a hurrying sound of wind.
Xiang Yu took the black horse sideways and trots a few steps. He finally avoided a falling thick short spear. When the gun body brushed across his body, Xiang Yu felt a chill all over his body, and this feeling was like being challenged by an enemy general.
"Barbarian soldiers, barbarian soldiers' spears? Oh—."
In the Chu army, screams were heard, and Xiang Yu could even hear the despair of the familiar generals, but at this time, he couldn't take care of himself. If it weren't for the psychic horses, he would have been unable to avoid this rain of bullets by the Qin army.
According to the range, the throwing distance of the Yue branch soldiers is actually farther than the effective shooting distance of the crossbow soldiers. Just now, Li Yuan specially instructed the Chu army brigade to be closer, and the crossbow soldiers first launched the first round of shooting, and then dispatched the Yue branch throwing troops to carry out precise strikes on important generals located in the center of the Chu army.
Faced with short guns falling from the sky, there were more than ten Chu generals nailed to the ground, and even the personal cavalry protected by Xiang Yu lost more than twenty. What made Xiang Yu even more angry was that the soldiers who lit torches and tried to throw and burn the Qin army chariots were also "shot" one by one.
Compared with the Chu people who are used to throwing, the difference between the Chu people and the Yuezhi people who are used to throwing is not a little or two.
"Li thief, it's really cunning." Faced with the heavy blow, Xiang Yu gritted his teeth in hatred. His bloody double pupils were full of madness. He continued to rush in. Under the double blow of Qin crossbowmen and throwing soldiers, he was really unsure whether he could break the gap. But if he retreated, it would be even more difficult to get close to Li Yuan's central army flag.
