Chapter 251: Within Two Days (Part II)

When reading novels, you can always see a certain historical fierce man, and when he sees the protagonist's tiger body, he immediately bows his head and worships. No matter how bad it is, there will always be a protagonist who seems to have to talk about a famous historical strategist for a while, and the strategist is immediately shocked that he is a confidant because of him, so as to have the heart of death, and then plan a five-year development plan for the current situation of the protagonist. (Three languages are the most common phenomenon)

Lu Zhe was autonomous for almost nine months, except for some desperate remnants of the Six Kingdoms, some low-level Qin troops who had no choice but to get on the thief ship, and more had to accept the Nanjun fathers and elders under Lu Zhe's rule, and there was really no one who thought that Lu Zhe had earth-shattering talents or the heroes of the world took the initiative to vote.

Well, Lu Zhe went all the way to snatch a Xiao He, along with those Liu Bang's starting team. What are these people like? Xiao He, who is most valued among them, is just doing his duty, and he usually doesn't speak without speaking, and he never says more. In addition, none of those A, B, C and D ran to Lu Zhe to buckle their heads, and they were either full of anger or had the mentality of being able to mix.

There are no generals in the army, and there are no civil servants in governance, Lu Zhe compared the time-traveling novels he read, and he came to a conclusion that he may not be the worst mixed, but he is definitely the most laborious one.

Zhang Liangti's two Jianyì Lu Zhe listened to it a little, in fact, didn't the two opinions be the best plan and the worst way out for him to do well?

One is that it can't bear it, so Nanling City is being built at a great cost, and the bridge connecting the south bank of the Yangtze River on the north bank is also being designed by craftsmen, but it is almost impossible to build a bridge across the river now.

The other is to repel the Qin army and then consolidate the defense system on the border with the Qin state, and then occupy the Tong County of Ba County to control the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and then maintain the status quo of Changsha County and Lujiang County maintained by Wu Rui and Huan Chu. After the above goals were achieved, Lu Zhe did not think about expanding again, but achieved a precipitation period of at least three years. While accumulating material resources, train the army under your command to lay the foundation for future plans.

Now that the Xianyang Center has sent an edict, the threat from the north will be temporarily eliminated, although he knows that the return of the Qin army will definitely be even more turbulent than this time.

With the lesson of the first encounter, the Qin army will be more prepared, and the next time they come to the outer fortifications, it is estimated that they can really only get early warning and can no longer stop the footsteps of the Qin army. However, Lu Zheming knew that such a result would occur, but he still had to accept it, because he needed to turn his head to deal with the threat from Xiang Liang and the Four Clans.

There will be such a predicament today is from the handiwork of the Xiang family, Lu Zhe seems to be calm in his heart, but in fact, he is already angry, he would rather work to move the people north without achieving results, but also to leave a big trouble and turn around and fight with Xiang Liang to show the evil anger in his heart.

Very irrational idea. However, life has been too tired to be rational in the world, why not vent evil anger and go crazy at the same time, even if you can't destroy the troops in the hands of the Xiang family, you must let the Xiang family lose a lot of losses and lose the right to speak in the court, so that the newly restored Chu court is no longer a pole of the Xiang family, and let the Xiang family face the opponent who fights for power?

If Lu Zhe's idea was known to Zhang Liang, it would inevitably surprise him. In fact, the strategy that Zhang Liang did not say was to weaken the Xiang family, and then use wealth or silk to win over the important ministers of the Chu court, so that the Xiang family would fall into endless infighting and have no time to target Lu Zhe again. Without Xiang's deliberate conspiracy, Lu Zhe's situation may not get better. But it's definitely not going to get any worse. You have to know that the environment that is targeted by someone and the environment that is not targeted by people is really two completely different forms.

Lu Zhe, who was focused on the battle ahead, did not talk to Zhang Liang again, what he saw was that his three-shot crossbow had reached a position two hundred away from the Qin army, and some sword and shield vehicles were also covering the soldiers to go up to make necessary precautions. Now on the battlefield, not only are there thick crossbow arrows and round stones flying in the sky, but after stepping into the distance of 200 steps, the crossbow arrows of both sides are also shooting back and forth, and the situation on the entire battlefield has become a little intense.

The crossbows of both sides fired at each other, and then the ballistas were added. Mei Wei remembered that there were already thirty-two bed crossbows that destroyed the Qin army, and he didn't know how many bed crossbows the Qin army carried, but he saw that the Qin camp had not fired any more thick crossbow arrows for about a quarter of an hour. His first repressive measures can be considered fruitful.

The Qin army's bed crossbow no longer fired, and Mei Li naturally knew that Su Lie pressed the sword and shield cart and the horizontal hook cart in, and the two kinds of equipment, one of the main defense, could cover the soldiers under the threat of the Qin army's arrow array, but the horizontal hook cart could push out the wooden planks that had been prepared in the car and step on the ditch dug by the Qin army.

When their troops pressed into two hundred paces, the Qin army seemed to open the gate and rush out, but they were shot back by Mei Kai's timely deployment of bed crossbows, car crossbows and crossbowmen, and the Qin army gave up leaving the camp after trying a few times and lying on more than 1,000 people, only some of the crossbowmen were transferred to shoot arrows at the three-shot bed crossbow operators outside the camp.

The situation on the battlefield is not unchanged, since Mei Li and Su Lie have approached the Qin camp two hundred steps away, the Qin army's bed crossbow is no longer firing after losing the best means of counterattack, Sima Xin watched Lu Zhejun's strange equipment "spit out" the wooden plank and cover the trench, and the two trenches that were painstakingly dug basically had no effect.

Sima Xin didn't have a very good card, the bed crossbow continued to shoot will be covered and destroyed by the enemy's more than ten or twenty bed crossbows, and the crossbowmen who sent out to form an arrow array will be killed by the enemy's bed crossbows and crossbowmen in a large area, and even the crossbowmen who were queuing up were swept by a cobblestone bullet, and the head of a soldier in the front row exploded directly, and more than a dozen people in the back also vomited blood and smashed the tragic situation.

As a last resort, Sima Xin had no choice but to order Zhou Xing to withdraw his troops to the second camp, and then ordered Li Heng and Shao Ai to gather soldiers on the left and right flanks and prepare for the enemy to rush the camp and start hand-to-hand combat.

Mei Kai and Su Lie were ordered to attack only from a distance and not attack the camp, and Sima Xin, who was preparing according to common sense, waited for a long time for the enemy to shoot thick crossbow arrows and cobblestone bullets, and had no intention of sending hand-to-hand combat soldiers to attack, which made him feel more worried instead of feeling relaxed.

Although the Qin army is unstable, it will never hesitate to fight hand-to-hand combat, and the Qin army in this generation has always been using the advantage of arrows to press others to shoot, and now it has become the enemy shooting They have no power to fight back, and the huge gap in Sima Xin's opinion will only further collapse the morale.

"The enemy army has completely suppressed our long-range attack, and they have prepared sword and shield carts and defensive fronts," Sima Xin was anxious and asked Changshi Qin Jun, "Do you have any good methods?" ”

Qin Jun is just a long history, he is not a general or a strategist, he is responsible for the logistics and management of the army and the literature and history of recording military exploits, how can there be any way?

"General!" Next to him, a lieutenant of about forty years old, his name is Shima, who was originally a member of the Northern Xinjiang Legion sequence, and was later transferred to the Central Plains Legion. On this occasion, there was no part for the captain to speak, but he saw that Sima Xin was a little out of shape, and Changshi frowned, so he couldn't care so much, and saw Sima Xin and Qin Jun turn their heads together, and hugged their fists: "There is a building in the job." ”

Sima Xin didn't look at his identity if anyone could come up with a good method now, and hurriedly said, "You say!" ”

Shima maintained a fist-hugging posture: "The Qin army has been diffuse, they are targeting the Chinese army where you are, but the left and right flanks have not been attacked, it can be seen that the enemy army mainly wants to hit the morale of the army." The enemy's bed crossbow and bow crossbow troops have now become a protruding form, and the enemy has 30,000 soldiers guarding equipment, but the left and right wings of our army together have 60,000. ”

Sima Xin walked to the front of the sand table and looked, but the enemy's situation on the battlefield was as Shima said, Lu Zhe's army was only attacking the Chinese army, and the left and right flanks were just suppressed, and now the enemy army was indeed bullying a little ahead, causing part of Lu Zhe's army to seem to be disconnected from the troops behind to form a protrusion.

Changshi said: "On the battlefield of the enemy, there are nest cars observing the three camps of our army, and every move is in the control of the enemy. ”

Shima frowned, now it has been completely suppressed, forming a passive situation that can only be beaten and cannot fight back, and the already unstable military spirit that has lasted for a few days is likely to collapse, at this time the destruction of the enemy's offensive is the most important, how to reverse the disadvantage with so many concerns?

Sima Xin, who had been staring at the sand table, was extremely in a dilemma, he knew that what Shima said was right, but Changshi's concerns were also common sense, and he really couldn't make up his mind for a while.

"And wait, wait." Sima Xin synthesized: "See if the enemy will advance again, if it advances, give up the second barrier, attract the enemy's protrusion more obviously, and then according to the captain's method, order the left and right flanks to send troops." ”

"Good!" Changshi Qin Jun also thinks that this is the safest, "The deeper the enemy army is, the more troops can be sent to destroy or capture the weapons of the Qin army in one fell swoop." ”

"Alas......" Shibuma, who sighed secretly, saw that the coach and Changshi had made up their minds, he was just a lieutenant who knew that the more he delayed, the more inappropriate it would be, but what else could he say? If you say more, you are not giving opinions, but you are metaphorically saying that the coach and Changshi are stupid donkeys.

The whole afternoon was spent in the thick ballista of arrows, time passed slowly, and the ballista fired stone projectiles that had gradually stopped as the sky was getting darker.

After night fell completely, Mei Kai made adjustments again, he set back some of the ballistae and bed crossbows, leaving about fifty of them to continue firing at the Qin camp, and the rest were moved back like ballistas for maintenance.

"The Lord's order is to shoot for two days and nights in a row," Mei Hong looked a little tired? He looked at Su Lie, who was smiling: "I asked you to lead the army to guard at night?" ”

Su Lie had a reason to laugh, he originally thought that he could only stay in the rear in this battle, but he didn't expect to be transferred. For him, it is an excellent thing to be able to fight a battle, and when he is happy, he naturally puts on a smiling expression: "Don't let the camp be attacked, the 30,000 soldiers under the command of Lie are guarding you, and there is no trouble to talk about." ”

Two days, such a long-range shooting will be maintained for two days, Mei Kai is very curious about what will become of the Qin army after being shot like this for two days. (To be continued......)
