———— the following text————

A moment later, strangely shaped chariots slowly appeared in the Wei army's array, moving slowly towards the battlefield.

These strange chariots, nicknamed turtle chariots by the soldiers of the merchant and water army, are shaped like a huge turtle, about the size of a house, and except for the bottom, the rest of the front, back, left, right, and upper five sides are covered by thick iron armor, invulnerable, and can be called an iron wall.

The only problem is that because this kind of turtle cart is propelled by the soldiers inside the chariot with manpower, the mobility is simply miserable, and even a three-year-old child can leave it far behind.

Of course, Zhao Hongrun didn't expect these tortoiseshell chariots to cause any casualties to the Qin army, and its existence was originally to build a defensive line.

"When the ......"

"When the ......"

One by one, the tortoiseshell chariots slowly moved towards the battlefield at an unbelievable speed. The sound was made by the chains hanging between about two or three chariots, about six or seven, in staggered positions.

Probably noticing the tortoiseshell chariot from the rear, Wu Ji, the general of the Shangshui Army, was slightly stunned.

Because as far as he knew, when these tortoiseshell chariots were put into use, it meant that a certain King Su had decided to launch a full-scale general attack.

Yes, it may sound ridiculous, 20,000 Wei troops launched a full-scale general attack on more than 100,000 Qin troops, but in fact it was.

No, behind the defensive line composed of tortoiseshell chariots, the crossbowmen of the Wei army were slowly moving forward with these iron tortoises, and from time to time they were shooting crossbow arrows at a small angle.

In fact, the Wei crossbow can not only shoot horizontally, but also slightly raise the angle without affecting the power of the crossbow arrow.

At least for the Qin army's fragile armor or even the black-faced pawns who didn't have any armor at all, even if the Wei crossbow used the least powerful projectile, it could cause considerable casualties.

"Clean up the corpse!"

Wu Ji gave orders to the Shangshui soldiers under his command.

This war has reached this point, in fact, there is no need for the sword and shield soldiers of the Shang Shui Army to kill the enemy, and the crossbow soldiers of the Wei army will replace the sword and shield soldiers as the protagonists of this war.

Under the shocked gaze of countless black-faced soldiers, the sword and shield soldiers of the Shang Shui Army and the Yan Ling Army stopped advancing, focusing on cleaning up the corpses on the battlefield and leaving a "passage".

What exactly is Wei Jun doing?

The Qin army's black-faced soldiers and Changge soldiers couldn't understand it, but it didn't take long for them to see something very unbelievable—a steel defense line composed of hundreds of tortoiseshell-like chariots and iron chains.

At this time, the crossbowmen of the Qin army had also pressed the front line and shot a rain of arrows at the Wei army, but the effect was minimal.

Because the soldiers of the Shang Shui Army and the Yan Ling Army, relying on the shields in their hands and the sturdy armor on their bodies, they almost unscathed the baptism of arrows and arrows of the crossbowmen of the Qin army.

And those tortoiseshell cars, the rain of arrows can't cause any hindrance to them.

On the contrary, the Wei crossbowmen behind the tortoiseshell car defense line, they brought a devastating blow to the Qin army with their Wei crossbows, which had a longer range and greater power than the Qin crossbows.

The Sichuan cavalry was dispatched, and they guarded the two flanks of the Wei crossbowmen; And the 50,000 cavalry of northern Sichuan, who have not been put into the battlefield so far, also slowly appeared from the Wei camp in Hangu, holding the Wei army at the tail, I don't know what intentions they have.

At this time, Wang Di, the general of the Qin army, had already come to the front line of the army, looking at the abnormal Wei army with a solemn expression, and he faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart.

Intuition told him that the Wei army was preparing for a general attack, but the question was, the difference in strength between the two armies was so great, did the Wei army really dare to counterattack the Qin army?

You must know that the reason why the Wei army was able to block several ferocious offensives of the Qin army was that in addition to the fact that the Wei army's weapons and equipment were far superior to the Qin army, the geographical environment also accounted for a certain factor - the Wei army was located in the narrow area of Hangu, and this narrow space limited the Qin army's various encirclement tactics, and it could only choose to break through.

But now, the Wei army has been taken out of that narrow-minded place, what are they thinking?

"......" Wang Yi looked at the slow-moving tortoiseshell carts of the Wei army with an expressionless face, and then looked at the crossbowmen of the Wei army behind the tortoiseshell car defense line.

He knew that as long as the Changge soldiers and the black-faced army could break through those tortoiseshell carts, then the Wei crossbowmen in the rear were lambs to be slaughtered.

The question is, can you rush through?

Just when Wang Yi was thinking about this question, in fact, the Qin army's Changge soldiers and black-faced pawns had already launched an attack on those tortoiseshell cars.

They rushed to the tortoiseshell carts, slashing and chiseling with their weapons, but they were never able to pose any threat to the thick iron armor.

Having changed their minds, they wanted to pass through the iron cables between the tortoiseshell cars, but just as they crossed one chain and were about to cross the second one, the Wei crossbowmen behind the tortoiseshell cars launched a volley, and the cold crossbow bolts pierced their fiery bodies.

If it is said that when facing the sword and shield soldiers of the Shang Shui Army and the Yan Ling Army, the Qin State Commander Ge Bing and the black-faced soldiers still had the courage to fight back, but now in the face of those iron bumps, they were a little at a loss.

These things are invulnerable...... How to kill? Or rather, how to block it?

"Clear the way for the convoy!"

Wu Ji, the general of the Shang Navy, ordered his soldiers to clear the road so that the convoy could pass through the battlefield strewn with corpses.

The Wei saber and shield soldiers, who are just full of scenery, can only be reduced to porters at the moment, because the protagonists of the battlefield at this moment are the crossbowmen behind the chariot.

The crossbowmen of the Wei army, free-flowing and scattering, caused waves of arrows to rain down, killing the bewildered Qin soldiers in front of the chariot.

If it is said that there are still casualties between the Wei army and the Qin army, then now, it is simply a one-sided massacre.

Because the infantry of the Qin army on the front line of the battlefield could not cross the defensive line composed of those tortoiseshell vehicles at all, they could not effectively threaten the Wei crossbowmen in their rear.

"Puff-"

"Puff-"

One after another, the Qin infantry fell to the ground with arrows, and when they died, their faces were dazed.

They don't know how to fight back.

What the? A general of the Qin army who commanded the battle?

Those generals of the Qin army had already been sniped and killed by the snipers of the Wei State.

To be precise, whether it was those Qin generals riding war horses or Qin pawns who were suspected of being generals, they were all sniped by Wei snipers one after another, so that now, when the indestructible tortoiseshell car formed a steel defense line and slowly approached the Qin army, those Qin infantry were at a loss and didn't know how to counterattack.

"Combat convoy! Fleet ......"

"Poof——!

A Qin general summoned the convoy at the top of his voice, hoping to break through the Wei convoy's convoy defense with the help of the convoy, but as soon as he showed his head, he was shot by the Wei army's crossbowmen, killed by an arrow, and fell off his horse.

However, the Qin army's chariot was still summoned, and they sprinted towards the Wei army's tortoiseshell carts, not knowing whether they wanted to crush the sturdy tortoiseshell carts or cut the chains between two or three tortoiseshell carts.

But in the end, they didn't do any of that.

The soldiers of the Shang Shui Army, who accompanied the tortoiseshell cart, watched with calm eyes as the oncoming Qin army chariots crashed headlong into their Wei army's tortoiseshell chariots, but the latter did not even shake it.

During this period, there were also several Qin army chariots that planned to cut the iron chains between the tortoiseshell chariots, but they cut down, except for the sparks splashing, the iron cables only appeared a white road, and those chariots were "killed" on those iron cables, and the people turned over on their backs, and there was no sound.

"Clean up the corpse!"

The 1,000 generals of the Shang Shui Army calmly gave the order and removed the obstacles that hindered the progress of the tortoiseshell cart one by one.

As a result, the tortoiseshell cart of the Wei army continued to move forward and continued to crush the Qin army.

From beginning to end, these tortoiseshell carts did not cause any casualties to a single Qin army, they just moved forward in an orderly manner, and it was the Wei crossbowmen behind these tortoiseshell carts that really killed tens of thousands of Qin troops.

These Wei crossbowmen repeated the steps of loading and firing crossbow arrows, and they didn't even need to consider safety issues, because the infantry of the Qin army couldn't touch them at all.

Even, because of the range, even the crossbowmen of the Qin army could not pose any threat to them.

This can't be considered war at all......

The general of the Qin army, Wang Di, watched that scene with a gloomy face, and led the escort cavalry to charge towards a tortoiseshell car. Immediately, with the help of the galloping force of the war horse, he slashed into the iron wall of a tortoiseshell car.

Hearing a loud sound, the blade of the long knife in his hand shattered, but looking at those tortoiseshell cars again, there was only a shallow dent.

Sturdy to this point?!

Wang Di's face showed a look of shock, he naturally knew what kind of power his angry blow was, but in front of the tortoiseshell car of the Wei State, it was not worth mentioning at all.

"Poof—"

A slender arrow pierced Wang Di's shoulder, and he subconsciously looked at the back of the tortoiseshell car, where several Wei snipers were slowly putting down the strange sniper crossbows in their hands, preparing to load the crossbows, while the rest of the Wei crossbowmen had already aimed the crossbows in their hands at him.

"Protect the General!"

More than a dozen escort riders shouted and rushed to Wang Yi.

Immediately, only to hear a chaotic sound of puff, the dozen or so guards were hit by a dozen arrows one by one, spitting blood from their mouths and falling off their horses.

"General Wang Ji retreats quickly!"

One of the guards, who was lucky enough not to be shot dead on the spot, shouted loudly with a mouth full of blood.

As a result, as soon as he finished speaking, he was shot into a sieve by the crossbowmen of the Wei State.

……

Gritting his teeth, Wang Di turned his horse and left.

The Qin army in the middle of the battlefield has collapsed, and is being slaughtered by the infantry, chariot soldiers, and crossbow soldiers of the Wei army, and on the two flanks of the battlefield, 50,000 cavalry from northern Sichuan have outflanked them at some point, with great ambitions, as if they want to slaughter more than 100,000 Qin troops here.

On the entire battlefield, the sky was covered with arrows, and almost every time they blinked, hundreds of Qin troops were killed by arrows.

Looking at this scene, both Qin general Wang Yi and Qin Shaojun have clearly realized how big the gap between the Qin army and the Wei army is.

Is the Qin army not fierce enough?

No, this is the difference caused by the armaments of the two countries.

Wei's armament strength made it possible for them to turn the tide of the war, even due to their absolute inferiority in strength.

"The Qin army was defeated ......"

In the Wei army's main formation, Lintao Jun Wei Ji said with a complicated expression.

"And rightfully so." Zhao Hongrun said lightly: "We know the composition of the Qin army, but the Qin army doesn't know anything about us, not to mention ...... There is a huge disparity in their skills. ”

Lintao Jun Wei Ji exhaled with a complicated expression, and then asked Zhengse: "Next, Your Highness wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue?" ”

"There's no next step......"

Zhao Hongrun shook his head slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Just today, let Qin Jun understand what despair is!" ”

With that, he waved his hand and shouted, "Order!" All the army is attacking! …… Take the main camp of the Qin army for this king! Annihilate this Qin army in this grassland! ”

"Yes!" (To be continued.) )
