Although Li Zuoche was riding a tiger, he was not able to dismount, because Mengtian's troops were too few, and what he had exposed to people now was only a part of his total strength, so even though he knew that Mengtian was retreating in search of a fighter opportunity
, but he still caught up without hesitation.
Even if he pushed the left and right armies far away, he didn't care at all.
Li Zuoche was amazed when he saw Meng Tian's more than 30,000 infantrymen retreating rapidly, changing their formations in an instant with the sound of a drum to form a huge attack formation. The elite will always be the elite.
.
But when he saw Mengtian's tooth flag appearing in front of the formation, and with the more than 30,000 soldiers pointed by the tooth flag heading towards his own army, Li Zuoche was not surprised but overjoyed. This was exactly what he wanted.
result.
Although the more than 30,000 infantry in his central army is far behind Mengtian's Jiuyuan Army. However, these 30,000 infantry are not his real strength. His real trump card is that he is surrounded by 30,000 soldiers.
Thousands of chariots and more than ten thousand flying cavalry in the rear formation of the Chinese army.
The more than 20,000 archers who were originally prepared also fell behind, but Li Zuoche believed that with Meng Tian's meager 30,000 infantry and the more than 10,000 Jiuyuan Jingqi who were wandering outside, it was impossible to attack them in a short time.
Wear your own Chinese army formation.
As long as he delayed Mengtian's army to drink tea, the two armies on the left and right, which were now nearly a thousand steps behind, could quickly catch up, encircle Mengtian on the left and right, and calmly surround Mengtian's more than 30,000 soldiers. At that time, Mengtian
Tian is truly unable to fly.
Mengtian didn't know Li Zuoche's plan at all, but Li Zuoche's guess about Mengtian's plan wasn't entirely correct either.
The thirty-nine original infantry retreated quickly, and now they suddenly rushed forward like tigers down the mountain. The Qin army counterattacked from a distance of more than 200 steps, and the Zhao army did not react hastily but still moved forward. In the meantime, most of the Zhao army was killed.
Entered the range of the Qin army's powerful crossbows.
Lighten the tooth flag!
The familiar and melodious "buzz" sound suddenly rang out.
But the difference this time was that Mengtian, who had received Hu Hai's advice, had already changed the Qin army's method of launching powerful crossbows on the way north.
The more than 10,000 infantrymen who rushed at the front were the first to fire, still throwing more than 10,000 crossbow arrows, forming a black rain of arrows that roared into the unsuspecting infantry formation of Li Zuoche who did not stop.
middle.
The powerful crossbow arrows used gravity to tear apart the armor of Li Zuoche's army, which was stronger than other soldiers. A flash of blood suddenly appeared, and screams broke out. The infantry of Li Zuoche's army who were still chasing fell instantly.
It rained heavily.
Just after the first wave of crossbow arrows passed by, "Buzz", another wave of more than ten thousand crossbow arrows were thrown out from the center of the counterattacking 39,000 Yuan Army. Li Zuoche, who had just breathed a sigh of relief and had a chance to escape with his life,
When the infantry heard the familiar terrifying scream, their expressions suddenly changed.
No one expected that the Qin army could load the crossbow so quickly and fire a second wave of crossbow arrows during the attack. After another series of miserable cries, the already sparse infantry of Li Zuoche's army had been reduced by almost five.
Six thousand people.
When Li Zuoche heard the second wave of crossbows whistling in front of the Qin army's formation, his face suddenly turned pale. If the Qin army was really equipped with powerful crossbows that could be fired continuously, then his 30,000-strong army could only be used as a weapon by the Qin army.
Eat the snack in one bite.
"Blow the trumpet!" Li Zuoche shouted.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The rapid sound of horns sounded from Li Zuo's army in the car, which was calling the left and right armies to come quickly for support.
"Buzz!" The roar of the third wave of arrow rain instantly overshadowed the sound of horns rang out in Li Zuoche's army. This time the crossbow arrows were obviously much denser than the previous two, and they covered the sky densely, forming a large area.
Dark clouds swarmed down.
This is a crossbow fired simultaneously by the counterattacking front army of 10,000 infantry and the rear army of 10,000 infantry. After being buffered by the central army, the front army had already reloaded the crossbows while running, and the front army was the first to do so.
He was the vanguard who contacted the enemy, so this time he fired the best crossbow arrows together with the rear army who fired last.
Just as this wave of arrows fell, the last wave of arrows from the Chinese army fell like raindrops again.
In just ten seconds, four waves of crossbow arrows shot out a total of fifty thousand crossbow arrows!!
The results of these 50,000 crossbow arrows were also extremely brilliant. Even Mengtian, who used segmented shooting in actual combat for the first time, couldn't help but feel lost for a moment when he saw the tragic situation of Li Zuoche's army on the opposite side.
The loss of consciousness was followed by deep fear.
Because after the crossbow arrows were fired, the more than 30,000 infantrymen covered in front of Li Zuoche's army were still intact. God bless them, but there were no more than a few thousand of them intact. The rest were either killed on the spot, or fell to the ground wailing, and their blood flowed into a river.
Because of this, Li Zuoche's truly hidden thousands of chariots and more than ten thousand flying cavalry were completely exposed, because the infantry that were blocking them were basically lying on the ground now.
Without such a wonderful method taught to him by His Majesty the Emperor, the counterattack that he originally thought would be a success would have become his own burial place.
Mengtian's feelings for Hu Hai are unadvertised//The addition of too many unknowns about the emperor made Mengtian's awe of Hu Hai completely rise to another level. Isn't this the same as the descent of heaven and man to the earth?
Compared to Li Zuoche, who had only been quiet for a moment, he was truly confused and desolate. A few crossbow arrows flew over his head and were directly inserted into the Chinese army chariot that served as the command post.
Li Zuoche's heart was bleeding when he saw that the infantry of the Chinese army, which he considered to be elite, were annihilated by the Qin army's powerful crossbows in just a few dozen breaths.
He was deeply afraid that he had always thought that with his own talents and an army several times larger than Mengtian's, he would be able to take down Mengtian in one fell swoop and annihilate the Jiuyuan Army heading north, setting up a great situation for the restoration of the Zhao Kingdom. Now he discovered that,
Sometimes people may not be able to defeat the sky, and more people may not be able to defeat weapons.
If Meng Tian escapes this time, with the strength of Da Qin's current weapons and equipment, it will not only be tens of thousands of infantry that will be annihilated next time, but the recently re-established Zhao State and himself and others will be wiped out.
.
Whether it was the Qin army who personally caused such a major victory, or the surviving infantry or Li Zuo's chariots and cavalry who experienced it personally, they were all shocked by the unparalleled lethality of the crossbows and stopped on the spot.
The battlefield that was supposed to be filled with shouts of death fell into an eerie silence at this moment.
"Whoever captures Meng Tian alive or takes his head will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households and will be rewarded with ten thousand gold coins!"
Li Zuo stood on the chariot and shouted loudly, his high-pitched voice reaching into the sky.
As the sound of Li Zuo's chariot fell, more than ten thousand flying cavalry rushed out from behind Qian Cheng's chariot with the momentum of Mount Tai. More than ten chariots followed closely behind under the control of the driver, divided into two groups and surrounded them, obviously wanting to encircle them.
Thirty-nine thousand original troops were surrounded here.
When Meng Tian heard Li Zuoche's shouting, a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes, and his tooth flag pointed at Li Zuoche's location.
More than 30,000 Jiuyuan infantrymen descended from the mountain like fierce tigers, drew their swords, and pounced on the over 10,000 flying cavalry who were charging towards them.
More than ten thousand flying cavalrymen clamped their horses' backs tightly, skillfully took off the long bows on their backs, picked up the bows and set arrows, and took the lead in meeting the over thirty thousand Qin infantry who rushed forward.
This sudden attack of more than ten thousand feather arrows immediately caused heavy casualties to the thousands of Jiuyuan infantry who rushed forward. Thousands of them screamed and fell to the ground. Meng Tian, who was in the middle army, watched as he followed him
Thousands of soldiers of the former army who fought in the southern and northern wars fell to the ground after being hit by arrows, their eyes cracked.
He whipped the horse hard, and Meng Tian rushed out first, followed closely by more than a dozen Dragon Guard soldiers and thousands of personal guards who guarded Meng Tian and held the tooth flag. They all rode their horses to catch up and held the door firmly.
g is in the middle.
Li Zuoche's more than ten thousand flying cavalry could only shoot one round of feather arrows, and the two armies collided fiercely.
The moment the two armies met, the sounds of broken bones and tendons were heard, accompanied by the continuous screams of the horses.
The Jiuyuan infantry at the front suddenly fell to pieces. After all, the infantry and the cavalry intersect, and the cavalry with the combination of man and horse has a great advantage. Fortunately, the Qin cavalry, the three artifacts of the cavalry, has not yet been fully equipped, let alone Li Zuoche's flying cavalry.
.
Of course, the Jiuyuan infantry in the front row sacrificed their lives, but the numerous Jiuyuan infantry behind them won the opportunity to kill the enemy. In addition, the Jiuyuan infantry risked their lives to block the attack, and Li Zuoche's flying cavalry could not penetrate the enemy.
The thick and deep formation consisted of thirty-nine thousand soldiers.
Without space to move, it would be a tragedy for the cavalry to face infantry that was several times their size, especially the brave and well-equipped Jiuyuan infantry.
The Jiuyuan infantry had been fighting with the Hun cavalry for a long time, and they had already figured out how to deal with the cavalry. Not to mention that Li Zuoche's flying cavalry was now far inferior to the Hun cavalry.
The two armies were intertwined, and countless people fell every moment. However, due to the obstruction of more than ten thousand flying cavalry, the Jiuyuan infantry could not move quickly at all.
By drilling through the cavalry formation, there would be no threat to Li Zuoche.
If the strength of the two armies is equal, then everything is easy to say. The key is that Li Zuoche and Qiancheng chariots are on the outside, and there are more than 100,000 infantry from the left and right counties, who are surrounding them, and are about to arrive to completely surround Meng Tian
This 30,000-strong army went deep alone.
At this time, Li Zuoche's chariots had separated to the left and right, and were about to take the lead in completing the initial encirclement of Meng Tian's army.
The 19,000 original cavalrymen who had been cruising on the right flank of Mengtian's army saw the thousands of chariots getting farther and farther away from Li Zuoche. At this time, they suddenly rushed into the battlefield and went straight to Li Zuoche, who was only guarded by more than a thousand personal guards.
go.
This immediately frightened the more than 500 chariot soldiers who had moved to the right wing of Mengtian's army and were about to complete the encirclement. They hurriedly gave up the encirclement and rushed back to rescue Li Zuoche. It was not their fault. The battlefield was now filled with shouts of killing.
Originally surrounded in the center, they never noticed the cavalry cruising in the distance.
The chariot soldiers who had moved to the left wing of Mengtian's army were in no hurry even if they wanted to rush back. They could only wander around the left wing of Mengtian's army. Jiuyuan infantry were constantly being hit by the wandering chariots.
He fell to the ground and was crushed to death.
The spearmen on the chariot also continued to succeed in sneak attacks, and the Qin army's casualties increased rapidly.
The balance of victory seems to have tilted towards Li Zuoche's side~~~!!.
