Chapter 538: It's Outdated (Part II)

It's the Spring Festival, everyone must be happy and happy~~~

……………………

Ballistae and ballistas are not magic weapons to deal with chariots, in fact, even if the current ballista is equipped with a sight like Wangshan, it is still not very good, after all, can you ensure that you can accurately see the straightness of the crossbow arrow, the chute of the ballista itself, the driving force of the bowstring, and finally the wind force must also be taken into account. If you can ensure the hit rate with a lookout sight, anyone will desperately build a ballista, and then easily take tens of thousands of ballista to conquer the world.

The appearance of large equipment is first of all to attack the city with walls to serve, using them for field warfare is more of a deterrent to the enemy, and it cannot become an absolute main force at all, and anyone who does not know this point of view is not worthy of becoming a qualified general.

In this kind of hunting, due to the difficulty of the chariot turning, it may be possible to achieve good results by pre-calibrating the shooting elements, but once the chariot does not enter the pre-calibrated range, it is extremely difficult to hit a moving chariot with a ballista, even within a range of 15 meters.

Nearly 600 long-range attack equipment have been fired, and the result they have achieved is to wipe out the chariots of the Qiyan coalition army to 147 left, and when these chariots reach the distance that the ballista cannot fire due to the elevation angle limit, it will be the turn of many crossbow troops and melee troops to take over the combat vehicles.

It turns out that a chariot without a horse Kai can make the chariot rest as long as it is covered by a burst of arrows, but the chariot with armor for the horses is not so easy to deal with, especially the soldiers on each chariot are wearing heavy armor because they don't need to move, so if you see a chariot being pierced by arrows almost like a hedgehog and continuing to charge at high speed, don't make a fuss, because heavy armor is really not an arrow can easily shoot through, even if it pierces the armor, it can't be fatal.

Under the continuous blows, when the Qiyan coalition army broke into the 100-meter range of Lu Zhe's army, there were still more than eighty chariots with horses and armor, but they were only these chariots. The Qi Yan infantry who followed them were constantly shot by ballistas, ballistas, and arrows, and they either became corpses on the ground or turned around and ran back.

"The time has come to test us!" Su Lie was a little sullen because of the roaring voice wearing the mask, and he was constantly cheering for the heavy infantry who erected the inclined shield wall: "Steady, every shield face is steady!" Just move the shield under one wheel of the enemy tanks, and those tanks should topple! ”

Who doesn't know this truth? But seeing an imposing chariot crashing into it at high speed, without a strong enough heart and guts, he would be too scared to sell his legs.

"Steady! The enemy's infantry is all out of touch, and there are only a few chariots coming up, they are your military exploits, your meritorious fields, and the wealth of our road to the warriors, just kill them. That's it! Yongya was also yelling, what he shouted out was what he wanted, so the lower-level chiefs, captains, and soldiers must also want it.

Qualified grass-roots officers are an indispensable part of an army, and a grass-roots officer who knows how to motivate the soldiers and belligerents is the most valuable asset of every army, and they will determine whether one basic squad after another has a strong desire to fight, and whether one squad after another has a desire to fight determines whether the army is strong or not.

Lu Zhe has been reorganizing the army for nearly a year, and he should have cultivated a group of qualified grassroots officers on the basis of the original one, and there are not many officers like Yongya who inspire morale at the front line.

The reason why these grassroots officers are so dedicated is not out of any national responsibility or for the country, but simply because of the belligerence of the non-commissioned officers under the formation to which each officer belongs and how many military merits they will receive. What kind of capital, wealth, acres, and titles can military merits be converted into...... And so many more are directly related.

The movement of the chariot at full speed is really too big, especially the chariot pulled by the horse in the horse cayette, it runs so fast that even the ground will shake for it, and the closer it gets, the more it will test whether a person is a qualified soldier or not.

What does it mean to be a qualified soldier? Every era, every army, has a different meaning. For the present era. Don't see the enemy approaching and immediately turn around and run is a qualified soldier, and a soldier who is about to approach the enemy and can hold his breath and wait for the order to fight is an excellent soldier, who can not run away and has the courage and skill to fight after the order is given, he will definitely be an elite soldier.

The ground was shaking, and the shaking was getting louder and louder. Not every soldier can be able to stop his mind and see death as home, and what both recruits and veterans can do is try to suppress their desire to turn around and run away. And in this case, the internal atmosphere of an army becomes quite important. If the people around you are all eager to try, even the timid can become more courageous, and if the people around you are eager to kill the enemy and make contributions, then the cowardly will definitely be affected.

In the first stage of the hunt, there were only about eighty chariots left to attack, and Lu Zhejun's side had already ensured an undefeated situation, so what reason did the soldiers have not to be excited?

"Move to the left, good ...... Stop! Yongfang's eyes widened as he looked at the chariot that was rushing in front of him, and if the horses and antlers were knocked away, they would be responsible for toppling the chariot.

There was a spacing between each of the beveled shield arrays, and that was precisely to give them room to adjust the array. At the same time, there is enough open space next to each array, otherwise even if the oblique shield is really used to overturn the enemy's chariot, how many people will be killed if the chariot overturns and falls?

The chariots of the Qiyan coalition army, which had rushed the most, were already less than thirty meters away from the horses and antlers that had been lined up during the war, and at this time, the ballistas, ballistas, and crossbow troops of Lu Zhejun's troops had stopped firing, except for the shield array in front that was about to meet the impact, including the combat sappers and the rest of the troops were taking advantage of this gap to adjust their formations.

Not only were most of Lu Zhe's army adjusting their formations, but the Qiyan coalition army, which realized that the first wave of attacks had failed, was actually changing formations.

The first wave of attacks launched by two hundred and fifty chariots and 12,500 infantry soldiers is now less than seventy chariots left, and it has to be said that this is a situation that the top brass of the Qiyan coalition army did not expect in advance. Their original plan was that once the two hundred and fifty chariots and infantry troops in the center of Lu Zhe's army entered the center, the troops on the left and right flanks would form a double arrow to force up, so that it would be an offensive of a central breakthrough plus a flanking attack on the left and right, but the attack on the front of the center was approaching, but what was the use of only the chariots without the breakthrough of the infantry army? So the offense was a failure.

Lu Zhejun's ballista and equipment for firing cobblestone bullets were too many, and the continuous arrow array coverage was too terrifying, so he took the initiative to attack such an enemy army lined up in formation, and the 30,000 people rushed up to be smashed by thick crossbow arrows and cobblestone bullets, and they were close to the life that was constantly covered by the arrow array.

If the attack fails, then you can only defend, this is the unanimous view of Tian Rong and Zang Di, and it is also the only way to turn the tide of the battle, after all, Lu Zhejun always has to move when he launches an attack, and the moving position is definitely not as rigorous as when he is stationary, so the Qiyan coalition army can always find a flaw, right?

Most of the forces of the two armies were adjusting their formations, one from defense to attack and the other from attack to defense, but the fighting did not stop because most of the troops were adjusting their formations.

I found out that the charioteers of the Qi Yan coalition army, who had not kept up with the infantry army, are now full of tragic thoughts, not how much these charioteers regard death as home, but the chariots that are galloping at high speed can't fucking stop at all, what else can they do except show tragic colors and continue to charge?

The first chariot crashed into the horses or antlers that were blocking the way on the road, but not all the horses were pierced by the sharp reproaches and antlers, after all, the horses that pulled the chariot were trained, and the instincts of the creatures would not make those horses stupidly seek death, they would throw their necks and smash into the obstacles except that they really couldn't avoid it.

The chariots that had been killed by antlers and horses were once again thrown out with their hands dancing in horror, but it was rare for the chariots to be lifted from back to front.

If there are obstacles blocked, then naturally there will be no Qiyan coalition chariots that have been hindered, those charioteers who are lucky enough to continue to charge do not feel anything to be happy about, in fact, if they can turn the chariot, they would rather turn around and run back to their own formation, even if they can't turn and can stop, they are very happy to surrender immediately to save their lives. The problem is that it can't be stopped, a high-speed galloping chariot needs at least a buffer of about 100 meters to stop after accelerating, otherwise the end of the war horse running at high speed and pulling the reins is the end of a car being destroyed and killed, but now where is the 100 meters for them to be used as a buffer space, even if it can collide with Lu Zhejun and cause casualties, it can only be a martyr in this hunting battle.

What does it feel like for a high-speed chariot to be pressed against a large area made up of shields? Even if there are dozens of robes and robes being forced together, it is a feeling that suddenly seems to be pressed down by a mountain, if there is no psychological preparation in advance, the sudden force will make people spurt out a mouthful of old blood directly. With prior psychological preparation and physical defense, the high-speed running horses' hooves first trampled on the shield wall, and the very fast-paced stampede also made several soldiers with the wrong posture directly astringent blood at the corners of their mouths and softened their bodies.

"It's fucking heavy!" The posture of the Yong Tooth is correct, and it is because of the correct posture that he can still curse in his mouth, otherwise he should be like those unlucky people who either have misaligned bones or dislocated spine and lie on the ground.

The heaviness came suddenly, and before there was a loud sound of the chariot overturning, and the sudden heaviness came and went suddenly, and the soldiers supporting the inclined shield array were still stunned, when the chariot toppled and the screams of the people reached their ears...... (To be continued......)
