Chapter 709: Turning Defense into Attack
The Shu army began to change its tactics, only to see that their trebuchets were no longer loaded with loose stones, but replaced with boulders of more than 100 catties.
When the overwhelming boulders flew in, the horse-rejecting net wall of the Qin army's first front could not continue to withstand the impact of thousands of boulders and was crumbling.
"Lord, the net wall is about to fall, what should I do!" Dian Wei shouted anxiously.
Qin Feng just smiled and said, "It's okay, let the enemy enter the first direction, close the door and beat the dog." The order went down and retreated into the second line of defense. Order, Yuan Rong crossbowmen, enter the trenches and kill the enemy. ”
His order was quickly conveyed.
Jia Xu was calm at this time, and said: "It is impossible for such a giant stone Shu army to collect too much, if it is expected to be good, the enemy will not be able to break through the second line of defense of the lord." ”
However, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang have not fully understood the subtlety of this posterity position.
Therefore, when the Qin army's first horse rejection net wall collapsed, Liu Bei was ecstatic, thinking that he was going to break it all. At his urging, the Shu army launched a frantic attack.
And the Qin army immediately retreated to the second line of defense.
At this time, Liu Bei lost his smile. Because he finally found out that this is the first way, and there is a second and a third way after it. And so far, he hasn't even touched the edge of the Xiangyang city wall. He instantly turned into a bitter gourd face and said, "Military advisor? ”
Zhuge Liang quickly shook his fan, he had no good way to face the position of this future generation, but said: "Look again, look again." ”
"Rush!"
"Kill!" The Shu army came to the edge of the first ditch of the Qin army. The Shu army called the trench of the Qin army like this, and they saw the backs of many Qin troops, disappearing into the bends in all directions in the ditch.
"Timid as a mouse. I know that I drilled around in the ditch and chased Lao Tzu. These hateful Qin troops, hunt them down! ”
On the orders of the officers. The Shu army jumped into the trenches of the Qin army.
As a result, an unbelievable scene appeared, and tens of thousands of Shu troops who just wanted to rush up jumped into the ditch one after another. After that......, completely, disappeared.
At the moment when the last Shu army disappeared into the ditch, the battlefield became quiet and terrifying.
His own soldiers were suddenly gone, as if they had been eaten by the Qin army's position. Liu Bei, who was watching the battle in front of the position, witnessed such an infiltrating situation. Suddenly, his heart was broken, and he exclaimed: "Wow, there are monsters, my soldiers have all fallen into the ditch!" ”
"I've been pitted!"
"Pit kill!" The generals of the Shu army were also shocked.
Liu Bei pointed to the distant position in surprise and said to Zhuge Liang: "Military advisor, sure enough, this ditch dug by Qin Feng is used by the pit people!" ”
Ordinary people's thinking, how to dig a ditch, you have to show half of your head to observe the enemy's situation. Zhuge Liang didn't expect that he couldn't even leak out of his bun. "Is it deep?" He was also a little confused at the moment, and the feather fan shook sharply: "Look again, look at ...... again." ”
"Then ...... Look at ...... again. Liu Bei was a little weak at the moment.
Let's talk about the Qin army in the trenches.
More than 10,000 Shu troops were densely packed in the narrow ditch, as if a school of sardines had entered the trench.
"Not good. We can't go up! ”
"Wow, so deep!"
"Qin Jun is neurotic, digging so deep. It's almost a stretch! The Shu army looked up at the sky. There is the illusion of watching from the canyon. The ditch of the Qin army was too deep, and they fell into the ditch. Like a beast that falls into a trap, it can't get up no matter what.
One officer said, "It's okay. Chasing the back road of the Qin army, just chasing and killing all the way! ”
So, the Shu army had no choice, so they lined up in a row and marched in the trenches.
However, they soon found out that they had lost their bearings.
It turns out that this trench extends in all directions, like a labyrinth, and it is really difficult to go down for the first time and want to go out along the way.
A squad of the Shu army turned around in the trenches, secretly scolding, what kind of reputation is the Qin army, and they are not afraid of getting lost in this ditch.
At this time, a flash of vision flashed, and a Qin Jun suddenly appeared in front of the team.
The vanguard of the Shu army was startled and hurriedly stopped. However, the companions behind him did not notice it in a panic, and suddenly bumped into each other.
Fluttering, the mud on both sides of the trench slid down, and seven or eight Shu soldiers fell together.
"What a situation, what a situation!" The officer was furious, and said that he would fall even if he walked. However, he soon found the clue, only to see the Qin army appearing in front of him, holding a crossbow arrow with a metallic sheen in his hand, and the crossbow box was the size of a baby.
"Yuan Rong crossbowmen, they are the Yuan Rong crossbowmen of the Qin army!" The officers of the Shu army were full of heart, just because he knew the name of the Yuan Rong crossbowman clearly, the crossbow arrows in his hands could be fired continuously, and often one person could create a rain of arrows that could only be sent out by a team of people.
"Meet the enemy, kill him, kill him!" Seeing that there was only one person, the officer of the Shu army shouted.
The vanguard hurriedly raised his spear and stabbed it.
Qin Jun, the Yuan Rong crossbowman, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he pulled the trigger of the Yuan Rong crossbow in his hand.
......Woooo
Hundreds of small crossbow arrows in the crossbow box were fired non-stop. It's small, but it's tough and lethal.
Puff puff...... Puff ......, blood splattered.
"Wow!"
"Ahh The Shu army fell to the ground one by one.
The narrow trench could not dodge, allowing the Yuan Rong crossbow to exert the power of the guns of later generations, shooting at the enemy while also carrying the effect of stringing sugar gourds. And the Shu army platoon station helped to maximize this effect.
When the Qin army's Yuanrong crossbowmen disappeared, in this trench, the Shu army squad was killed and wounded.
At the same time, the Shu army in each trench was hit hard and suffered heavy losses.
Suddenly, a white flag was raised. The remaining Shu army shouted loudly, "Surrender, the Qin army treats the prisoners preferentially!" ”
Yao saw the white flag, and Liu Bei, who heard the call, immediately became an O-shaped mouth. He didn't know what was going on in the ditch, and said angrily: "What's the matter, what's going on in the ditch?" Why did they all surrender? ”
The soldiers were also confused.
Liu Bei was extremely corrupted because of this, and he stepped forward a distance and shouted, "Qin Zijin, what have you done in this ditch?" ”
At the head of the city, the soldiers of the Qin army saw it really and admired it for a long time. Only then did they know the reason why the lord dug the trench one foot deeper, and it turned out that the enemy would not be able to come up if he jumped in, which just gave full play to the power of our army's Yuan Rong crossbowmen shooting at close range.
At this moment, Qin Feng shouted with a smile: "Liu Xuande, you can go down and take a look in person, don't you know!" ”
Liu Bei scoffed, and said in his heart, "Do you think I am Cao Mengde?" If you want to trick Uncle Ben into jumping into the pit, no way!
In this regard, the Qin army retreated as an advance, and after launching a counterattack, it recaptured the first line of positions lightly.
Liu Bei Gaden Gaden rode back to his side's front and said, "Qin Zijin is really hateful, but next time we take precautions, we can use catapults to strike ......." ”
After the order was delivered, the generals of the Shu army, who led the catapults, hurriedly came to ask for guilt.
It turns out that this Hanjiang Plain is not Shudi, there are no mountains, and it is difficult to find boulders. The boulder of the Shu army has been exhausted.
Liu Bei's face was cloudy and uncertain, and he said in his heart that the city wall of Xiangyang had not yet been touched, how would he fight with the Qin army in the future?
Zhuge Liang said at this moment, "Lord, I have lost almost 30,000 people, retreat first, and then think of a good strategy to break the enemy." ”
Liu Bei realized that the city wall was not touched, and there were no 30,000 soldiers and horses. To break through the front line of the Qin army in front of Xiangyang, you still have to ask for 100,000? It's also an attack on a fart. The rest must have died under the city.
The battlefield was full of wolf smoke, and there were screams of the Shu army who were not killed by arrows.
After Liu Bei hesitated, he had no choice but to order the whole army to retreat.
Guan Yu hurriedly said: "Big brother, look like there are still thousands of wounded soldiers?" ”
Liu Bei was secretly annoyed when he heard this, and said in his heart that Uncle Benhuang had supplies for these wounded soldiers to consume, but he didn't answer, but said unhappily: "Second brother, quickly organize a retreat, you bring 5,000 people to the rear." ”
Amid the cheers of the Qin army, the Shu army retreated like a tide, leaving only tens of thousands of casualties.
In this Xiangyang garrison battle, the Shu army lost nearly 30,000 men, while the Qin army suffered no more than three digits of casualties. With such brilliant results, it was Qin Feng who came up with this positional battle in the later generations.
After the Shu army left, the Qin army began to clean up the battlefield and treat the wounded of the Shu army. The surrendered Shu army was grateful, and it was no problem to sincerely submit to Qin Feng.
Twenty miles away from Xiangyang, the Shu army is a big village, and the Chinese army is a big tent.
"Qin Zijin is too despicable and shameless. Digging ditches everywhere in front of Xiangyang City, pitting people! The angry Liu Bei shook the only fat, angry Buddha's ear and said, "Kong Ming, you immediately think of a way to come out and break through Xiangyang City!" ”
However, Zhuge Liang couldn't figure it out in the face of the sudden positional battle in the future, but he still said: "Lord, rest for a few days to restore morale, and let your subordinates think about ......." ”
In this regard, Zhuge Liang wanted to go out for more than 20 days when he thought about it. Fortunately, in ancient times, the pace was slow, and it was normal to fight a war for several years. Liu Bei saw that Qin Feng didn't move, so he didn't urge.
Xiangyang City, the state pastoral mansion.
Jia Xu hurriedly walked into the council hall and bowed: "My lord, there is news from the rear that the 100,000 soldiers, horses and materials mobilized by various ministries will arrive one after another in the next three days." ”
Qin Feng stood up and said, "Liu Bei didn't move in January, since he didn't come, let's go over." The camp that surrounded him, and then sent an order to Yuan Zhi, if Jiangling City could not be defeated, he would temporarily return to the army and cut off Liu Bei's way back. In addition, when sending troops, send a letter to Liu Bei ....... ”
"Whoa!" Jia Xu retreated.
This month, it's not that Qin Feng doesn't want to attack, it's because the problem of the Qin army's unadaptability has not been solved. And with this month's buffer, and the medicinal diet conditioning of Hu Ming's military medical camp, the Qin army has adapted to the water and soil in the south of the Yangtze River.
In addition, reinforcements are about to arrive, and it is also time for Qin Feng to counterattack.
Three days later, the Qin army began to move, and 300,000 people left Xiangyang and began to build a ring camp around the Shu army's Dazhai.
Inside the Shu army village.
Liu Bei took Qin Feng's letter, and the letter roughly meant this: One ear, the true appearance is here. The Avatar can tell you plainly that the army of the Avatar will surround your camp, so you should wash one ear and wait for death.
One ear was Liu Bei's eternal pain, and he motioned to pick up the helmet on the desk and cover his head. Suddenly angry, he said: "Abominable Qin Zijin, Kong Ming, come up with a good idea!" (To be continued......)
