Many people would not have thought that this seemingly random act by the Holy Emperor Hu Hai would actually create the Royal Newspaper Academy that would become the mouthpiece of the entire Da Qin in the future.
At this moment, these students of the Royal Academy who are receiving Hu Hai's earnest teachings naturally never thought that there would be such a day in this newspaper academy. At the moment, they are excited to be so close to His Majesty the Holy Emperor of Qin, and for His Majesty the Holy Emperor to be there.
I am thinking about what I said in my mouth and reported it to the hospital to criticize the ills of the times.
…………
Sheche City, Western Region County of Da Qin Dynasty.
After sacrificing the flag and swearing an oath three days ago, the Pingyi general Li Xin led the Great Qin Pingyi Army's 80,000 cavalry and 20,000 White Tiger Army infantry as the first legion of the Qin's Western Expedition. They left Sheche City and crossed the Holy Pass of the Kunlun Mountains to enter Pa
Mir Plateau, officially entering Central Asia.
At the same time, Du Teng, the chief general of the White Tiger Army, left 10,000 Pingyi Army cavalry to garrison Yarkand City, and personally commanded the 30,000 White Tiger Army infantry and 10,000 Pingyi Army cavalry still stationed in Yarkand City to set off.
out,
Du Teng's 40,000-strong army was marching in the direction of the three small towns of the Iya Kingdom, which were only a hundred miles away from Shache City and located in the basin at the foot of the Kunlun Mountains.
The officials from the Ministry of Rites who delivered Hu Hai's letter to Iya had returned a long time ago. Three days was the last deadline given by Hu Hai to Iya. If Iya had not chosen to join the Qin Dynasty, the Kingdom of Iya would have been devastated by the Qin Dynasty.
It is impossible for Hu Hai to leave such a kingdom that is hostile to the Great Qin lying on the road from the Great Qin to Central Asia just because Iya is the Princess of Loulan and a stunning beauty.
Either surrender or be destroyed.
These are the two paths stated in Hu Hai's letter to Iya. The specific choice is up to Iya.
In three days, all of Li Xin's army had passed through the Holy Mountain Pass and entered the Pamir Plateau. But long before Hu Hai officially declared war on the Vanyana, Vayana, Nagara and other countries in Central Asia, he was stationed in
The 5,000 White Tiger Army troops of Lu Xiong at the Holy Mountain Pass had already attacked first and defeated the 20,000 Vanyana army that came to provoke them.
The battle between the 5,000 White Tiger Army and the 20,000 Fanyana Army lasted less than two sticks of incense.
The White Tiger Army's entire legion of 100,000 people is the only legion in the Qin Dynasty with only 10,000 cavalry. Others, such as the Royal Xuanwu Army's heavy armored corps, have 30,000 heavy armored cavalry and 10,000 light cavalry;
However, the White Tiger Army is the legion equipped with the most large-scale repeating crossbows among the sixteen legions of the Qin Dynasty. The number of large-scale repeating crossbows equipped by the entire legion has now exceeded 2,500, which is basically every forty soldiers on average.
The soldiers have a large repeating crossbow machine.
If one new crossbow machine is added to each man's hand, the White Tiger Army still maintains the title of having the highest attack power among all legions in the Qin Dynasty, even if Weng Zhong's Royal Xuanwu Army heavy armor legion faces the White Tiger Army's 2,500 large-scale continuous-firing crossbow machines.
The only option is to retreat three feet.
Lu Xiong's 5,000 White Tiger Army was equipped with more than 100 large-scale repeating crossbows. Facing these more than 100 large-scale repeating crossbows, Fanyan's 20,000-strong army did not even enter the White Tigers.
Within two hundred steps of the army's position, it had completely collapsed.
This is because Lu Xiong deliberately let them into the range of the small hand crossbows of the White Tiger Army in order to maximize the damage to these ignorant Fanyana people before launching the large continuous-fire crossbow machine.
Otherwise, with the new large-scale continuous-firing crossbow machine having an effective killing range of more than 1,800 steps, Fanyan's 20,000-strong army would not even be able to get within the 1,500-step range.
There is a three-foot-long spear on the ground that is as thick as an arm. Well, in the eyes of Fanyan, it is just a spear, although it is shorter than a spear. Every time the shrill sound of breaking through the sky is heard, it will be heard in the dense crowd.
Blood grooves were plowed through the ranks.
If that spear is meant to kill people, then the inch-long black crossbow arrows raining down from the sky every few breaths is the death sickle that chases and seizes souls.
There may be a possibility of escaping in the face of the spears, but there is no possibility of escaping in the face of the rain of crossbow arrows that seems to be denser than the rain. I can only watch dozens of crossbow arrows tearing apart my thin armor.
and skin, piercing your own body.
These small countries in Central Asia saw the war machine from that legendary ancient eastern country for the first time, and were fortunate enough to be the first to feel it. Although the cost was their lives.
Seeing that the Fanyana Corps abandoned no less than five or six thousand corpses in less than a stick of incense and began to turn around and flee. Following Lu Xiong's order, three of the five thousand White Tiger Army infantrymen had one cone, and ten each had one cone.
They formed a large cone, and hundreds of people formed a larger cone-shaped charge formation, drew their sabers, and pounced on them like tigers descending the mountain.
Even in a tail-to-tail pursuit, long-term training still allows the White Tiger Army to maintain a strict cone-shaped formation. The power of teamwork is always more lethal than a person fighting alone.
After ten years of accumulation and innovation, the Great Qin Army has already broken away from the primary form of judging military merit based on heads set by the original emperor. Instead, it has changed to a unified method of judging military merit based on the regiment, school, captain, and the organization of the Great Qin Army.
A new method for assessing military merit.
In this way, although it stifles the emergence of individual heroism and dampens the enthusiasm of soldiers, it is far more likely than the possibility of disputes or even killing each other over heads, and the possibility of unnecessary battle losses due to failure to maintain formation on the battlefield.
Ten years ago, the military merit conferment system may have been the basis for the Qin Dynasty to unify the world, but ten years later, due to Hu Hai's repeated deliberate changes, it had long lost its original purpose.
It is undeniable that the military nobility system is the basis for the Qin Dynasty to unify the world, but using profit as the driving force to drive soldiers to fight may temporarily achieve victory, but when there is no war, how can soldiers obtain military exploits? What will happen then?
As time goes by, the military title system will inevitably disappear. As for the military salary system of the Qin army, Hu Hai is thinking about it. When the time is right, he can formally implement a complete replacement and abolish the military merit conferment system.
The military nobility system made Great Qin warlike and aggressive, which had both advantages and disadvantages. But today's world's technology as a whole is still in its infancy. This was achieved through great efforts in the past ten years. It only relied on two human legs.
, and how far can it be shot? What's the use of just shooting it down without effective control?
When Li Xin's army arrived at the Holy Mountain Pass, Lu Xiong's 5,000 White Tiger Army had just finished sweeping the battlefield. Fanyan's 20,000 army was wiped out in one battle, including the general, who also died under the crossbows of the White Tiger Army, leaving only a few survivors.
Vanyana's soldiers, who numbered thousands, escaped.
Naturally, there will not be too much oil and water on these Fanyana people, but the corpses must be disposed of, and there are more than 2,000 prisoners who also need to be arranged. Of course, these prisoners are the main force in processing the corpses of Fanyana soldiers.
To be honest, the battle against Fanyan's 20,000-strong army made the White Tiger Army soldiers who were bent on fighting feel very disappointed. The contrast was too big. Although the White Tiger Army looked down on Fanyan's soldiers, and the 5,000 White Tiger Army's powerful crossbows were not without
Flaw, I originally thought that no matter how unbearable Fanyan was, he would at least be able to fight with me with real swords and guns.
As a result, these Fanyana people were already in disarray before even engaging in battle. As a result, they were unable to find the energy to pursue and kill all the White Tiger soldiers.
Li Xin didn't say much about Lu Xiong's battle. On his way here, he had already seen the victory documents from Lu Xiong and others. After stopping for a day's rest at the Holy Mountain Pass, Lu Xiong's White Tiger Lieutenant was left behind.
The army continued to guard the Holy Mountain Pass and was responsible for returning the prisoners of Fanyana back to Sheche City. Li Xin then commanded his troops to formally enter the territory of Fanyana Kingdom.
…
Li Xin's 100,000-strong army is advancing. The country of Fanyana, which has received the annihilation of the 20,000-strong army sent to punish the small eastern country, is already quarreling over the annihilation of the 20,000-strong army.
Naturally, the total loss of the 20,000-strong army was not enough to devastate the Vanyana Kingdom, which had more than ten cities. What was frightening was that the 20,000-strong army completely collapsed within two hundred steps of the opponent's formation.
, but the other party only has 5,000 people.
Naturally, the Fanyana people would not know whether the reason why they were able to walk two hundred steps was because Lu Xiong deliberately released water to let them get closer to die. If they knew, I am afraid that at this moment King Fanyana would have begun to consider whether to go directly
Surrendered.
Regarding how to deal with the Eastern Great Qin, Fanyana was divided into two factions. One faction was the main war faction headed by the family of the fallen general of Fanyana, and the other was the peace faction that advocated reconciliation and a temporary cessation of war.
In the debate between the two parties, both parties seemed to have forgotten a serious issue, that is, whether Great Qin would send troops to attack Brahmanya.
On the first day of the fifth lunar month in the 60th year of the Qin Dynasty, Li Xin's army took less than half an hour to capture the seemingly defenseless Fanyana border fortress Luocheng, and captured the defending general of Fanyana, Fanyana County.
Wang Luoxie and the soldiers who defended the city were more than 10,000. In the battle of falling into the city, Li Xin's army suffered only a few hundred casualties.
After capturing Luocheng Fortress, Li Xin did not take any rest. After leaving 30,000 troops to garrison Luocheng, he immediately marched westward and captured the Fanyana Kingdom on the night of the second day of May, which was less than 200 miles away from the royal city of Fanyana.
Dieluo City is the second largest city in the country.
Since Li Xin never stopped in Luocheng, Dieluo City did not receive any news of the fall of Luocheng Fortress. They took advantage of the darkness to cover the Pingyi Army's 20,000 cavalry in two groups and forcibly broke through the simple gate of Dieluo City and entered Dieluo City.
Inside Luo City.
In just an hour, the banner with the word "Qin" began to fly on the top of Dieluo City.
In this battle, 20,000 flat army cavalry strangled more than 30,000 Vanyana soldiers and civilians, and burned, killed, looted and looted countless people. After the war, Dieluo City was in flames and could be seen dozens of miles away.
.
After Li Xin entered the city, he did not see any prisoners of Fanyana's soldiers. There were only flames burning everywhere, broken corpses all over the streets, and women who had their clothes stripped and dumped randomly in various parts of the city and were ravaged to death.
Dieluo City seemed to ignite the animal nature in the hearts of the Donghu cavalry who surrendered to the Qin Dynasty, and turned into a hell on earth under the hooves of the Pingyi cavalry.
