Xiong Jing did not kill Li Xin, but rushed ahead of him, and a row of Chu soldiers rushed out, and several spears stabbed Li Xin under the carriage to death in no particular order. Two years ago, when Li Xin led the Qin army to attack Fangcheng, he was young and killed more than 10,000 people. Li Xin also had no intention of surrendering to the Chu army, he knew that the Chu army would not let him go. He shouted something before he lost his breath, and then he was beheaded by Chu Pawn, and the head was finally raised high by the Yi spear.

Chu Pawn screamed excitedly, and Qin Pawn was so frightened that he was at a loss. Xiong Jing looked at Li Xin's bloody head and was slightly stunned, he didn't regret that he couldn't kill Li Xin personally, but thought that if he was defeated, the head would be provoked by the Qin people like this.

"Long live the King!" The extremely excited Chu army couldn't help but shout Long live the king, they finally forgot the anxiety and fear when the Han River went south, and once again believed that with their bravery, they could defend their mother country and sweep away the Qin people.

"Long live the King!" The soldiers shouted in unison again, including the Yan Qiu Division, who was rushing to the east, and their morale was like a rainbow for a while.

"Long live the King!!" shouted one after another, the Qin soldiers on both sides hurriedly retreated, and Zhuang Wudi, Shen Tong and the others, who were still in the bushes, smiled slightly. After the Battle of Daze, the Chu army defeated the Qin people again, once again instilling fear in the hearts of the Qin people.

"Report to Xiangyang quickly, say that Li Xin is dead, and our army has won a big victory!" Zhuang Wudi and Shentong happily forgot to tell the news in the rear, but it was Nao Xin who remembered this and hurriedly ordered. After the pigeon news was written, the shouts of the mountain and tsunami frightened the carrier pigeons, and as soon as they let go, the pigeon fled to the southwest and disappeared without a trace.

The Yingshi attacked the Qin army on the march, killed Li Xin, and then quickly attacked due east with the help of the Qin army's own chaos. Sixty miles in front of due east was the left army led by Zhao Wan, although the number was several times that of the Yingshi, but the land of the mountains could not be expanded, and the Qin soldiers who heard that the general was dead had no morale, and were completely crushed by the Yingshi's sword.

When night fell, on the battlefield forty miles west of Langshan, the largest counterattack organized by Zhao Wan, the general of the left army, was defeated by the Yingshi, and the cavalry of the Chu army, which finally caught up, slashed and killed the Qin soldiers who were scattered everywhere by starlight. The Xiong Jingyi spear standing next to the corpse pile had long been broken, and he was holding a chief spear in his hand, and his standing posture couldn't help but be a little shaky, he was too tired and sleepy.

"King Yu, Zhao Wan has been defeated, our army should return to the division to the north, and quickly pull out Xianghe Pass, otherwise the Qin army will ......" Deng Sui said loudly. Xiong Jing entered the ranks and fought side by side with the soldiers, but the generals of the Ying division still performed their duties and did not mess up.

"The king is tired." Xiong Jing seemed to be asleep, and Chang Jiang said slightly. Xiong Jing didn't fall asleep, he just dozed off, "How much does the Qin army have?" He asked, pulling himself together.

"Your lord, the Qin people are less than 100,000, not much." There are 20,000 or 30,000 Qin soldiers in the Chinese army's shogunate, and there are more than 70,000 Qin soldiers in the east, plus those who fled in rout, and the remaining Qin soldiers are indeed less than 100,000.

"But our army has no artillery." Zhuang Wudi and the others also stood on the side of the Qin people's corpses, they didn't speak, it was Nao Xin who spoke.

"The Qin army has become a frightened bird, and it is very afraid of me, and I am afraid that it has withdrawn from Xianghe Pass at this time and is heading north." Shintong said what Zhuang Wudi and others meant, which was also the meaning of the shogunate's strategists. "Only, only the weight and strength along the way......"

It is very simple for the front team to change from the front team to the rear team, just turn around, and it is difficult for the front team to change from the rear team to the rear team. If the strategists could think of the scene when the Qin army went north, they must have rushed and killed when the road was impassable, and there were all fallen soldiers along the way.

"Order the whole army to rest in place for a moment, and after a moment the whole army will go north." The fighter plane is fleeting, and the Yingshi can't stop no matter how tired he is, and he should go north as soon as possible.

The more anxious he chased, the more frightened Qin Jun was in his heart, and the faster he fled. The number of enemies killed is not the most important thing, the important thing is to make the Qin army afraid, which is the meaning of the battle of Lao Yu Mountain.

You can't rest in place for too long, if you do it too long, your body will be cold. A quarter of an hour can allow the soldiers to sit down and breathe, take a few sips of water, and chew a few salty pieces of jerky, and wait for the bell to ring, and the soldiers who have finished eating quickly march forward. At this time, in order to facilitate the march, the soldiers erected a fire every other mile, and under the light of the fire, the corpses of the Qin soldiers were displayed along the road.

The march seemed to become a kind of review, and the soldiers proudly reviewed their results. The song soon resounded in the procession: "Cao Yi spears are draped in armor, and cannons are rumbling and short soldiers are connected." The sun covers the enemy like a cloud, and the arrows and fallen soldiers compete to be the first......"

The majestic singing voice is exciting, and the whole army is energetic and marches towards Xianghe Pass, chasing the Qin people who have become frightened birds.

"Our army has won a great victory! The king wins! Our army won a great victory...... "Xiangyang, the brightly lit Xiangyang, the Lingqi from Yancheng galloped all the way and shouted all the way at night, and the Chu pawn on the city gate almost forgot to put down the drawbridge in surprise, and Lingqi stood outside the city for a while before entering the city.

After yesterday's news of Biyang, today is the day when Yingshi attacked the Qin people. From the morning, Nao Cun, Lu Yangjun, Li Er, and Don't ...... me, and the entire Great Sima Mansion was waiting for news from Master Ying. Unlike yesterday's sunny and rainy days, this morning the whole old Ying was raining heavily, after the pigeon news arrived in Yingdu, Yingdu could only send the news by fast horses, and in the second half of the night, the first pigeon news of killing Li Xin came in a hurry.

Hearing that our army had won a great victory, everyone who had been sitting for a long time staggered to their feet, Lu Yangjun almost jumped up, he patted his thigh and shouted: "Great victory, great victory!" Our army won a great victory......"

"Taiyi blesses. The Great Priest is blessed. Ancestors blessed. Nao muttered, he knew too well the meaning of this victory.

"When Nan Zheng defeats the Qin people again, my Chu country will be safe!" Li He also understands the significance of this battle very well, the boulder rolled down in the battle of Daze was held up by the spear of the Yingshi division, as long as the big wing gunboat can defeat the Qin army boat division on the water, the state of Chu can completely break free from the crisis, and the state of Qin will run out of food and die-

Death from the end of food can only happen in one situation, that is, the Qin army, whether it is the Ling division or the Zhou division, was defeated by the Chu army and completely suppressed by the Chu army. If you can't do this, the Qin State has no food, and the countries have food, so they send troops to grab it, so why do you need to grow it yourself?

The battle of Lao Ou Mountain gave Li He the hope of victory. The situation in the world has not been completely changed because of the protrusion of the Qin army's boat division and the occurrence of the Battle of Daze, as long as the Qin army is defeated in the first battle of Nanzheng tomorrow, the defeat of the Qin people will be decided.

Hopefully, there are still many concerns. The way of fighting of the big wing gunboats was to fight backwards, although the retreat operations were very unsuitable for the habits of the Chu army, and the generals despised them very much, but under the strict orders, the generals could still barely carry out the military orders. The real problem with backward combat is that the hand is sitting forward, but how can the hand sitting forward row backwards quickly? Even if they could paddle backwards, they couldn't be as fast as the Qin army's warboats that were rowing forward.

The purpose of the retreat battle is to maintain a certain distance from the enemy boat, and then keep firing the cannon while the enemy boat is chasing. If you don't retreat as fast as the enemy's boats are advancing, the two boats will soon collide, and the guns will lose their value if they collide.

The solution is not impossible, as long as the Chu army's boat division faces the enemy with the stern of the boat, and advances backwards, the problem of retreating speed is not as fast as the enemy's boat advancing will be completely solved. It's a lot like a horseman's return arrow, striking the enemy with his bow in retreat.

However, this seems to raise a new question: what if the enemy boat does not chase after itself? Turn the bow of the boat and fire the cannon while chasing the Qin people? What if the Qin people change their retreat to advance and rush again? And urgently turn around and turn the stern of the boat against the enemy?

Li Ji's subordinate, Cao Cao Peng Jingfei, described to him the battle of the Great Wing Gunboat, and it took him half an hour to understand how the Great Wing Gunboat fought. At this time, he understood why the general of the boat division would cancel the big wing gunboat in the first place - not only because the way of fighting backward made the boat division dislike, but because the way of fighting the big wing gunboat was either useless or too complicated.

It is useless to say that the bow of the boat is against the enemy, and at this time, the artillery mounted on the bow of the boat can only fire one shot, and it is better not to install it; Too complicated is to say that the bow of the ship is turned against the enemy and the stern is turned against the enemy. This will increase the difficulty of commanding the battle with the generals, and it will also bring chaos to the array of boat divisions.

The large-wing warship only needs one and a half of the hull of the gyratory diameter to complete the 180-degree turn, that is, forty meters, but this is a warship. Two warships turn at the same time, and the space required may be eighty meters. Even if the two ships are closely overlapped, the diameter of the rotation will not be less than 55 meters (the two ships are 15 meters apart from each other), and the diameter of the rotation will not be less than 115 meters if the five warships overlap and turn. In addition, the left and right sides should be kept at a certain distance from the river bank to prevent stranding, and the width of the river channel is close to two hundred meters.

From this point of view, the tributary waterways outside the Great River, the Great River, and the Great Ze were not suitable for the operation of the large wing gunboats, because the width of the waterway limited the rotation of the gunboat array. In addition, Jing Fei also cautiously warned: Even if the stern of the boat was against the enemy, the large-wing gunboat with only 124 wooden oars in the whole boat would have 56 wooden oars less than the five-oared war boat with 180 oars of the Qin people. According to the information that Zhibisi had received from the Far West, the five-oared Wings rowed at full speed a full section faster than the Great-Winged Warship.

This means that the five-oared wings can chase nearly thirty meters every minute, and if the large-wing gunboat fires at a distance of two hundred meters (the probability of hitting the guns at this distance is higher), then at most half an hour, the bronze ramming angles on the bow of the five-oared warship will crash into the stern of the gunboat.

In other words, if a large wing gunboat is chased by a five-oared warship, with the first shot, it has only six or seven chances to sink or damage an enemy ship and slow it down. If it's not a five-oared warboat chase, but two, three, or four five-oared warboats, there will be less than two chances of each on average.

This is the disadvantage of the small number of short oars in the hull of the large-wing gunboat, but if the large-wing gunboat is made larger, and the wooden oars are increased to the point that they are not afraid of being chased by the five-oared warboat, the diameter of its rotation will rise sharply, 40 meters will become 70 meters, and the width of the waterway will be greatly increased.

The flaws of the weapon itself are like this, the tactics are not perfect, and the most important thing is that it has not been tested in actual combat, which is a problem that Li Ji is worried about. He has no way to do this, just as Nao Qian prayed just now, everything can only be blessed by Taiyi, by the great priest's order, and by the ancestors of the king.
