Infinite Replacement

Chapter 50: The last three lines of defense

Boom--

Boom--

Boom--

Let the air tremble, let the blood boil, and the majestic drums beat. The black armor, black shield, holding the long Ge, and the grim black mask of the Qin Guo heavy armored infantry lined up in a neat queue. The instruction to march as the drum sounded, started as a whole, forming a black cloud, oppressing the Chu army camp hundreds of meters across.

The momentum of a good army will surely be able to consolidate into one. The collection of 10,000 people is enough to produce a suffocating effect. As his opponent, when he was overwhelmed by this momentum, he was already lost.

Fortunately, the face of the Qin army, but defeated the Qin army several times a day ago. The victory brought them courage and morale to face the enemy, and enhanced their confidence and fighting spirit. At this point, Jingyu's operations for two consecutive months are about to fully begin, and the effects of successive battles two days ago are showing.

Qin Jun gradually approached the attack range of Chu Jun archers, and they finally began to charge.

Riding on the warhorse, Jingyu's position is on the top of a low **** on the route of Qin's march. There are hundreds of meters away from where the archer is ahead. He waved his hand, and Chu Jun's drum drum sounded. At the same time, the archers in front began to neatly raise the sky at an angle of 45 degrees, shooting their sharp arrows.

Five thousand archers, together with a thousand Qingqi archers, a total of six thousand people, divided into three ladders. Every second, an arrow is thrown in a ladder. In this way, after the third second, the first two thousand soldiers can shoot arrows again.

In this type of battle, the accuracy of archery is not a concern, but the coverage and the number of times archers can pull the bow. They don't care how many people they missed, as long as they disrupted the enemy's charge formation. For the enemy who missed the net, the heavy armor infantry in front will help to solve it. This is not possible, and there are cavalrymen waiting for reunion.

However, Chu Jun's defensive heavy armoured infantry, this time did not meet Qin Jun who ran through the archer and covered the area. Behind the battlefield, Wang Jian could not help but frown.

"Get them all back immediately!" he ordered.

The officer in charge of the order was also watching Qin Jun's charge, and he could not help but stunned. It was not until Wang Jian glared at him again that he was taken aback and quickly ordered. Unfortunately, it is already too late. The more than a thousand heavy armored infantry rushing to the front seemed to run to the edge of the cliff, and all fell off and disappeared. The soldiers who saw this behind them stopped at the edge of the huge pit that suddenly appeared. The unfortunate ones were hit by the uninformed brothers behind them.

"Stop it!"

"Stop it!"

After such cries, finally the entire Qin army heavy armor stopped. They looked at the pit under a depth of about ten meters with fear, and there were countless sharp wooden thorns erected. Many of the fallen Qin army soldiers were penetrated by this wooden thorn and hung on the wooden pile. There are still some undead, who repeatedly reach out for help. Only at this height, the enemy is in front, how can there be time to save them.

At this time, the archers of the Chu army adjusted the attack range. Qin Jun gathered most densely by the pit, and this became the best attack area for archers.

Qin Jun, shocked by the facts in front of him, even for some time forgot to use a shield to protect himself. It wasn't until hundreds of people hit the arrow that the retreat signal sounded in the rear, and they retreated back in panic.

auzw.com Wang Jian’s location is also high. Looking at the trench that was about five meters wide and hundreds of meters long across the battlefield, he sighed:

"He chose this terrain as the battlefield. With this arrangement, it should be considered."

This is the only way to pursue the Chu army. The flat ground, about a few hundred meters wide, is wide on both sides. Although it is midwinter, it is only in the south, and the ice surface is not very thick. Ordinary people may be able to pass through, but the army collective charge ran over, how to support the ice? If it falls, the cold river water is enough to make people lose their fighting power instantly.

In this case, there is only one way to pass from the front.

Wang Jian speculated in his heart that Jingyu Ding began to build the trench here when Qin Jun began to build a strong base. When he came, he wondered how exactly there would be three low slopes one higher than the other across. Now think about it, those should be piled up by digging soil and there should be more than one trench. Look at the color of the soil on those low slopes for a month or two.

Another point is that there are traces of burning in the nearby woods, so that they have no planks to lay on the trenches? Wang Jian shook his head, and there should be other purposes. Because of the more than 300,000 troops brought here, the timber for the construction of the camp is enough to lay trenches.

‘Just, what would it be? 'He can't think of it for the time being.

Right now it is the morning of the day, and the fighting cannot stop there. Wang Jian then ordered that, from the timber for the construction of the barracks, select and distribute to the sergeants appropriately. At the same time, under the cover of the shield soldiers, more archers of the Qin army slowly advanced to the vicinity of the trench. Of the tens of thousands of archers, Chu Jun clearly has no chance of winning against thousands of archers.

Jingyu decisively withdrew the archer and the heavy armored infantry in front of them to the first low slope. In this way, Chu Jun was out of the shooting range of the Qin Jun archer, and was able to strike the Qin Jun through the trench at the first time.

Qin Jun’s infantry carried the wooden board to the first trench, and laid several layers in a row to prevent the heavy armored infantry from stepping down when they charged. Then, Qin Jun no longer charged, but continued to slowly cover the archers by heavy armored infantry, advancing toward the position of Chu Jun.

‘Wang Jian, it’s already decided that I have other trenches ready to be given to Qin Jun. Jingyu smiled slightly.

Seeing that Qin's heavy armored infantry advanced to the shooting range of Chu's archers, he issued another command. The drum sound changed, and I saw it on the second low slope. Suddenly, the sergeants lifted dozens of simple wooden structures to see their appearance, clearly like a catapult.

The low **** raised the simple catapult, allowing it to shoot farther, reaching nearly 300 meters. A football-sized stone, a migratory locust is usually shot out and poured into the Qin army camp. Not to mention the heavy armor, the Qin army archers became the first victims. Dozens of stones are not many, but the visual effects it creates are beyond imagination. Anything that is hit, the broken bones and tendons are folded lightly, and the whole head is not broken.

Although the number of Qinjun crossbowmen was large, the attack was affected by the rocks. The archers of the Chu army were on a low slope, and their shooting distance exceeded theirs. Moreover, there was a gap in the front of the heavy infantry guarding them. Cooperating with the rock formation and the arrow array, Qin Jun's advancement speed was very slow, and no doubt caused a lot of casualties.

As soon as Wang Jian saw this, he came to understand, ‘the burnt woods, and the purpose of covering up this. ’

He withdrew both the archer and the heavy armored infantry, and then pushed the front of the army outside the first trench. Then, the famous Qin Guoqiang crossbow force debuted. They are the biggest ones at this time. Before shooting, you need to pedal your bow, pull your arms around the waist, and use your full strength to wind the string. The rate of fire can't be compared with ordinary crossbows, and the mechanical power is not good, so Wang Jian didn't use them at first, but their range and power were not to be underestimated.

Jingyu immediately responded, retreating the heavy armored infantry and archers to the first low slope. The catapult at the second low **** also lowered some height, hiding behind the low slope. The strong crossbow can't shoot him at this third low slope, but he can give orders from the third low slope. The archers in front and the catapults don’t need to aim. You can just follow his command to throw and block the enemy.

Wang Jian had expected this. He threatened the crossbow not only to drive down the enemy's heavy infantry and archers, but also to prevent the cavalry hiding behind the low slope. Qin Jun's assault began again, even if he risked stones and archers, he would not stop. Then, the second trench was shown before the first low slope. Qin Jun immediately laid planks and continued to attack, rushing to the top of the low slope.
