No matter where these Jin troops came from, and why they caught them, a group of lone Qin soldiers, facing the sudden enemy army, the only way to survive is to charge head-on!
Captain Di Qin faced the rain of arrows and rushed forward with his brothers. Countless arrows passed by them. The soldiers pushed left and right to block, avoiding the attacks of the arrow clusters.
The soldiers of Di Qin had rich combat experience per capita. Although they were panicked for a while, they adjusted after they took a breath.
Soon, they no longer passively endured beatings, they drew their bows and loaded arrows, and began to give the Jin army some color.
To be honest, when it comes to individual soldier ability, Jingzhou soldiers are naturally no match for Qin soldiers. If we don’t talk about anything else, just in terms of physical strength, Qin soldiers can draw a big bow with the strength of two stones with one big hand.
Such close range archery can almost achieve perfect accuracy.
Now the two armies met on the hill. Both sides were equipped with war horses and were engaged in high-speed hedging. At this time, another major advantage of the Qin soldiers was highlighted.
The Di people originate from outside the Great Wall. Bow and horse are the foundation of their life. Riding war horses and exercising and archery are their special skills.
On horseback, the accuracy of archery by the Di people was much better than that of the Jin army.
Originally, the strength of the two sides was evenly matched, but the Jin army had a preemptive advantage. A wave of arrows rained down, injuring 20 to 30 Qin soldiers.
It must be said that it caused heavy losses to the Qin soldiers.
However, once the Qin soldiers started running, the Jin army's advantage was quickly eliminated.
The accuracy of the arrows dropped rapidly, and even a dozen arrows could not hit an enemy soldier.
The two armies were about two hills apart. Zeng Jing raised his arrows and tried his best to kill them. He also felt that the Qin army was approaching quickly.
And right next to him, many of his fellow Jingzhou soldiers were struck by arrows and fell to the ground.
"Captain, we can't go on like this. The Qin army's bows and arrows are better than ours. If we only fight with bows and arrows, I'm afraid we won't be able to fight."
The soldiers following him helped the team leader block two arrow clusters flying at an angle, and he couldn't help but worry.
When they received the news about Cui Yanyou, the soldiers were full of confidence and thought they could easily achieve military success.
However, when they actually set foot on this mountain and faced the powerful Qin soldiers, they realized that the so-called military success was never easy to achieve.
Only strength is the solid foundation for victory.
"Don't be afraid!"
"Don't forget, besides bows and arrows, we also have other weapons!"
"Now we are no longer afraid of close combat with Qin soldiers!"
"As soon as we charge forward, we will immediately reveal our weapons. We can't let the Qin soldiers seize the opportunity!"
Speaking of these other weapons, the soldiers' eyes suddenly lit up.
right!
I was confused for a moment as to why I had forgotten this artifact.
The soldiers shot arrows hard and charged hard. Under the protection of the archers in front, they grasped the spears in their hands.
"Kill!"
"Come on!"
Suddenly, the calm hills were full of shouts and shouts of killing. The Qin soldiers' strong bows and arrows were indeed powerful. When the soldiers of the two armies connected with each other, the Jin army, which had an absolute advantage, also had
Dozens of people were injured.
Although some soldiers were not seriously injured, it was obvious that they could no longer fight.
At the moment when the leading charging troops of the two armies were about to collide, the Qin soldiers had already unsheathed their swords and were ready to fight.
As long as you can charge and kill a few times in the battle formation, it is possible to save your life.
The leader of the Qin army galloped on his horse and was about to slash with his sword, but suddenly he felt severe abdominal pain. When he lowered his head, he saw that there was a sharp iron point inserted into the armor-wrapped abdomen!
"What is this?"
"How can it be?"
He looked at the other end of the pointed tip in disbelief, and saw Zeng Jing, the leader of the Jin army, holding a spear and using both hands to turn the spearhead that had penetrated the Qin soldiers' belly from side to side.
Following that gentle movement, Qin Bing screamed repeatedly, and the heart-wrenching pain was dragging him to hell!
Soon, the unfortunate Qin soldier lost his strength. Before his eyelids drooped, he saw in a trance that almost all Jin soldiers holding spears controlled their weapons with both hands, with an unprecedented range of movements.
Big, but still able to ride steadily on the horse!
This group of Jin soldiers has a good background. Could it be that they have undergone special training?
He had no time to think too much, because his living soul had already left him. Zeng Jing drew his spear, and Qin Bing quickly fell off his horse.
More Qin soldiers have not realized that this battle is different from many previous battles. They still rely on long swords, bows and arrows to fight hard.
However, as the distance between the two armies became closer, bows and arrows that required a certain shooting distance were no longer effective.
Facing the wolf-like and tiger-like Jin army, many impatient Qin soldiers had even thrown away their bows and arrows and used double swords.
Soon, they will realize that this is a foolish move.
Because, fighting swords, they are not necessarily the opponents of the Jin army.
"Where to run!"
"Suffer death!"
In order to maximize the effectiveness of the improved weapons, Wang Mi never relaxed the strict requirements for the daily training of the soldiers from Yuanjiang garrison to Xiangyang City.
Liu Yu, Tan Pingzhi and others were his capable assistants. Under their special training, the mental outlook of Jingzhou soldiers could be said to be completely new.
Even the martial arts of Beifu soldiers, who have always been brave, have improved to a higher level.
Two Qin soldiers wielding long swords rushed to kill them for a while and realized that the situation was not good. They slapped their foreheads, turned around and ran away.
However, on a slightly narrow hill, one can only move forward, but cannot retreat.
Moreover, the Jin army, which is red-eyed with murder, will not give you a chance to turn back. Their horses' heads have just been crossed when they were noticed by the Jin army.
Before they could take a few steps away, the soul-chasing spear pierced them.
There was a muffled sound in the forehead, and the Di Qin soldier was stabbed. He struggled for a moment as if he had been struck by lightning, and leaned back.
At the same time, two other Qin soldiers who tried to escape were also successfully surrounded by the Jin army. The two stood back to back to protect each other.
Seeing the stabbed comrade in the back, the two men immediately realized that they would never be able to break out of the encirclement by fighting alone.
"What's going on with this group of Jin troops?"
"My martial arts skills have greatly improved!"
The two of them stood with their backs to each other, talking softly, their eyes still staring at the surrounding Jin army, and they did not dare to relax for a moment.
"yes."
"Moreover, I noticed that their riding skills have also greatly improved. You see, they don't even have to hold the reins when attacking."
"When you attack with weapons in both hands, your riding skills are as good as those of our army!"
"really!"
"If you and I, brothers, are ordered to rush out today, we must report this to General Fu!"
Although Qin Bing, who had extremely keen combat nerves, still couldn't figure out what went wrong, he was already certain that there must be some unknown secret behind the Jin army's greatly increased combat effectiveness.
And this secret is enough to influence the battle situation in Xiangyang City.
More and more Jin troops were surrounding them, and the Qin soldiers also discovered that more brothers had been surrounded by the approaching Jin troops.
Within this circle, there were twenty or thirty Qin soldiers who were unable to advance or retreat!
The Jin troops outside the circle were watching eagerly. Some of them held some kind of improved long-pole weapons in their hands, while others held long knives with blood beads dripping from the side of the blade.
They are hunters, and Qin soldiers are their prey.
