Chapter 187 The Battle of Qin Luo: Ning Ming Dies!(1/2)
Chapter 187 Battle of Qin Luo: Ning Ming died!
Clouds covered the sky, and without the warm light, the battlefield filled with blood and fighting suddenly became cold.
The soldiers of both sides fired at each other with crossbows, and the trebuchets also kept on firing.
Since the Luo people were condescending, the Qin army would naturally suffer.
"Boom!"
The boulder fell from a high altitude, and with huge potential energy, it smashed the person's head into the neck.
This is an extremely horrific sight that is indescribable.
Killing with swords can only frighten timid ordinary people, but facing the soldiers in battle will arouse murderous intent and bloodshed.
But the visual impact of a living person whose entire head is instantly sunk in and turned into a completely unrecognizable piece of flesh is completely different.
In the face of such a huge force that would kill or injure him even if he touched him even slightly, it actually made no difference whether he wore armor or not.
Luo Ji stood on top of the city, looking at the damage caused by the crossbows and trebuchets.
The Qin people stood more densely. Although they were protected by large shields, they still suffered a lot of casualties in the face of Luo's large crossbows and trebuchets.
The power of crossbow arrows is beyond comparison with ordinary swords and arrows.
Even for a soldier who was wearing armor, if he was hit by a large crossbow from the front, his armor would be dented directly. The sharp crossbow arrow penetrated his chest, and bright red blood could not help but gush out, and he died suddenly.
As for the soldiers without armor, there were even several corpses strung on the same crossbow arrow at the same time.
Luo Ji looked at the slightly chaotic Qin army's formation and nodded with satisfaction. It seemed that Qin's most elite army did not go into battle today.
Luo Ji certainly did not expect something like a trebuchet to kill the Qin people.
That is really ridiculous. Unless these instruments are extremely large, their main function is to suppress morale and disrupt the formation.
It serves as an auxiliary for the troops that will attack the city later.
Wang Jian commanded the Qin army to attack the city in an orderly manner. Normally, they would be surrounded by three and one missing.
But the purpose of surrounding three and missing one was to break the fighting will of the soldiers in the city.
But the attack on Zhaocheng was different. Wang Jian did not think that the soldiers in the city would surrender.
Then it is natural to besiege on all sides, giving full play to the Qin army's advantages in numbers and siege equipment.
Attack Zhaocheng from all directions and without blind spots.
The Qin army did not launch a large-scale charge immediately.
Facing the Luo army, whose physical strength and energy are now at their peak, there is no difference between that and death.
Wang Jian sat in the middle of the army and ordered to the generals, "Don't attack without authorization between the various camps.
You all must already know what happened to Bai Cheng.
If something like that happens again, can anyone take responsibility?
The brave warriors of the Luo Kingdom are extremely brave and guard against the sudden attack of the Luo Kingdom army.
Each battalion shall be arranged in formation according to my orders. There must be no disorder and the attack shall be rotated.
This is the battle to attack Luo!
Not the rotten fish and shrimp like Zhao Weihan!
You all must put away your frivolous thoughts, and when facing Luo people, you must be careful and careful again and again, do you understand?"
Wang Jian's tone was very stern. It was the first time that the generals saw him so solemn. They all sat up straight, saluted and said in unison: "Yes, General!"
"First spend a month to sharpen the spirit of the Luo people and let their energy dissipate. Time is on our side."
All the generals agreed in unison and continued to organize the Qin people to attack the city.
Wang Jian stood under the Chinese army's banner and observed the entire battlefield. This was an extremely safe place.
No one in this world can cross the distance of 1,500 steps and kill a commander in the midst of thousands of troops.
Amidst the sound of drums, the people of Qin stepped forward with their shields raised, one group of people protecting the front and the other group of people protecting the top of their heads.
The clanging sound kept coming from the big shield. The Qin army relied entirely on the big shield to defend against the arrows shot from the city wall.
These powerful and heavy arrows made the hands of the large shield soldiers begin to feel numb.
The Qin people were also fighting back, but attacking from low to high was naturally inferior to attacking from high to low, so the casualties were higher.
But even though he didn't say it, everyone knew it.
Luo people's life is precious, Qin people's life is cheap.
It’s hard to tell who makes more money from such an exchange.
Zhaocheng.
Facing the Qin people's attacks, which were not particularly fierce, but continued, Luo Guo's office began to discuss countermeasures.
Luo Ji looked a little solemn and said: "It seems that Wang Jian was able to defeat the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han, not just because the three kingdoms were incompetent.
He wants to fight a stupid war, he just wants to sacrifice his life and exchange the lives of the Qin people for the lives of the Luo people."
Everyone's faces looked a little ugly.
There are 600,000 people in Qin, even if half of them die.
It is still possible to organize large-scale sieges.
But if half of the Luo people died, they wouldn't even be able to defend the city.
Luo Ze also frowned tightly, "If it was a field battle, it would be like what the step son led the daredevils to do before.
By directly defeating the front army or a few battalions, the entire army can be swept away.
But in the siege battle, the initiative was completely controlled by the Qin people.
Beat the drums and advance, shout the gold to withdraw the troops.
The Qin people rotated in turn, and even if their morale was reduced, they could fight to the last soldier without external attacks."
Luo Ji clenched his fists tightly and said in a deep voice: "If this continues, it will be like a cow or sheep being bled, gradually falling into death.
Is such a silent collapse what we want?
Legend has it that there is a strange flower in the south of the sky. It is extremely beautiful but blooms for a short time.
If flowers and plants are like this, what about people?
The sages said that one would rather die singing loudly than to live in silence.
How much more to die in silence?
Luo people are unyielding!
This is not the exit that Luo people should have.
As a descendant of King Su, he is brilliant when he is prosperous, and he will shock the world when he declines!"
Everyone understood what Luo Ji meant. Since everyone on the left and right was dead, it would be better to die vigorously.
Throughout history, the unyielding ambition of the Luo people will last forever.
…
After deciding on the strategy of taking the initiative, Luo Shi has been looking for opportunities to observe the strength and weakness of the Qin army's battalions.
As night fell, in this era when most people suffered from night blindness, the Qin army naturally retreated.
But this was an opportunity for the Luo army, and tactics such as night attacks were rarely used.
Because there is no large-scale and highly mobile cavalry, this tactic is not very practical.
The mainstream of this era is still the battle between large armies, which mainly relies on the side with larger numbers and stronger tactics to win.
Luo Ji and several other princes led the daredevils to attack again.
They selected the battalion with the worst discipline observed during these days.
To rob a camp, we are looking for an army that can easily cause chaos.
Even in the dark of night, the view is not very clear.
But Luo was so familiar with the area around Zhaocheng that Luo Ji could feel the Qin camp even with his eyes closed.
Tens of thousands of cavalry quietly reached the Qin army's camp. There were dots of fires in the camp and there were patrolling soldiers.
The almighty heavenly soldier can not only serve as a battlefield charge general, but is also qualified as a killer.
They completely defeated a group of Qin troops in a few breaths, without even a sound being heard.
But the slight smell of blood in the night wind still made the patrols feel that something was wrong.
"Hi, how's it going over there?"
Another patrolling soldier asked loudly, but it was not his comrades who answered him.
But an arrow coming through the clouds!
