Chapter 38
Due to the urgent military situation, the Women's Army rushed to the road, and in addition to having a meal and resting, they kept rushing on the road.
One day later! When the Women's Detachment Army was only a few dozen miles away from Hechi County, they encountered the Western Qin army who sniped the Women's Detachment Army to rescue Hechi County.
Li Xueyi reported excitedly: "Princess! According to the scout's report, there are five thousand soldiers from the Western Qin five miles ahead. We will snipe us on the road to rescue Hechi County."
After hearing Li Xueyi's report, Li Xiuning understood that the rescue plan was suspended. Only by defeating the Western Qin troops who intercepted the Women's Detachment could he rescue Hechi County dozens of miles away. She did not hesitate and shouted as she had stopped the formation of the Women's Detachment.
"Soldiers, our Women's Army will make the Western Qin soldiers who intercept us come and go." Li Xiuning turned around and said, "Prepare the banner of the Central Army camp!"
After the words came, a soldier held a red flag in the black edge that was fluttering in the wind, and was held high in the middle of the big word "Li".
"Swish!"
Li Xiuning pulled out the battle knife, raised it to his waist, and slowly walked to the front of the team. Behind him were a soldier's flag bearer, two flag bearers holding short-lived soldiers. Li Xiuning stood at the front of the entire formation.
On the left are two rows of cavalrymen, and on the right are their own guards.
Li Xiuning raised his sword with a solemn expression: "Start! Be careful to catch the enemy."
At this time, the Western Qin army battle formation that intercepted the Detachment of Women's Army five miles away!
"It's very good. The battlefield is very good. It's flat and not far from Hechi County. I don't think there is any need to find another battlefield." The Qin general Hun Gan was very satisfied with his choice of the battlefield first.
This position can give full play to the speed advantage of the Western Qin cavalry. As long as the line of the Women's Army is broken through, they can be blocked from rescue of Hechi County, and they cannot influence the entire Western Qin army to attack Hechi County.
A quarter of an hour later, the armies of both sides approached each other, and now the soldiers of the two armies could see the faces of each other's soldiers.
"Drum!" Li Xiuning shouted!
"Dong!Dong!Dongdong!Dongdongdong!" The dull drum sound made an exciting rhythm.
"Go forward!" Hungan also issued an order. At this time, the distance between the two sides was only a thousand steps. He rode his horse and ran in an instant, but as an experienced commander, Hungan would not order to accelerate. His subordinates were all the earliest veterans who followed His Majesty, and they knew what to do.
The long-range catapult bombarded and smashed it. The second wave was the attack of archers and crossbow archers. The long-range bows and arrows kept shooting and killing the opponent until the opponent could not bear the casualties and collapsed. This is the usual tactics of the Detachment of Women.
In the battle in the cold weapon era, formation is very important. As long as the enemy's formation is used to disrupt the enemy's formation, it is more about disrupting the opponent's formation. Archers and crossbowmen shoot in one go, light cavalry rode forward, archers and light cavalry shot and killed each other, and then rushed with heavy cavalry to attack the opponent's battle formation, and then let the subsequent infantry attack, and then end the war. In this year, the Detachment of Women defeated each opponent with such tactics.
"Eight hundred steps, each trencher is ready!"
"Six hundred steps!"
"Five Hundred Steps"
The messenger meticulously reported the distance between the two sides to fight.
Li Xiuning shouted: "Cattack attack!!"
"call!"
"call"
"call"…….
Twenty catapults were fired one after another. The moment a dozen pounds of spherical boulders were fired out, the soldiers who did not look at the results of the battle immediately made the next move and continued to operate the catapults as required. Each step was repeated countless times, and each move was an instinct that penetrated the bone marrow. All soldiers could also achieve orderly high speeds, and after more than a dozen breaths, they were ready again.
All the soldiers of the Detachment of Women were watching the results of this theory. They saw the spherical huge rock facing the cavalry formation coming at high speed. When the huge round stone launched by the huge force of the catapult fell into the formation, the powerful inertia continued to roll forward after landing, and like a plow, a blood groove of about dozens of steps was carved out in the dense formation, and rushed around in the Western Qin cavalry formation. Later, the Western Qin soldiers were yelling fiercely, and their blood stained the land under their feet red.
No matter how powerful the flesh and blood body is, in the face of huge power, the human body is as fragile as a piece of tofu. In the formation of the Western Qin soldiers, people are overturning and horses are rising. After the spherical giant rocks roll, they fly across the flesh and blood. Countless broken bodies scream and fall on the ground and fall off the horse. The armor is broken and the swords and guns are broken. Seeing the internal organs that make people vomit, the battlefield becomes Shura hell.
"Hu!" "Hu!" "Hu!" "Hu!"...
The catapult is launching another round of launch.
A huge round stone could smash more than a dozen people into blood and flesh. The soldiers of Xiqin were smashed by one after another, and the corpses were everywhere, blood red, and they were wailing and screaming...
The most unlucky one was broken by a rock, and his intestines were flowing all over the floor and he was still wailing and screaming.
A sergeant of Xiqin soldier stepped forward, raised his hand and helped him end the pain.
Hungan saw that his cavalry had suffered heavy casualties before he rushed to the opponent's battle formation. He secretly amazes that the launch distance of the catapult was so far, but he had a cold face and did not order to retreat, so that the cavalry would continue to charge.
The Western Qin cavalry archers in the front, rode their horses and jogged, had already approached 200 steps, and began to speed up and set their bows. With just a few breaths, they could shoot arrows into the chests of the women's soldiers, allowing them to taste the taste of death and scream. These Western Qin cavalry archers were very confident.
"Rise the bow! Aim!"
At this time, Li Xiuning had nothing to do, just stood in front of the central army and watched his generals command without any confusion.
"Start!" Li Xueyi was the first to issue the order to launch.
With the commands of the squad leaders in the queue, dense arrows were fired out.
"Swoosh!" "Swoosh!" "Swoosh!" "Swoosh!"...
Only two bows, arrows, crossbows were fired. The arrow rain was like a tornado. A large rain of arrows was created in front of the Western Qin cavalry. Two thousand Western Qin cavalry archers, but two rounds of fire were launched, all the ones that could still disappear on the horse's back.
After the bow and arrow and crossbow were fired twice in a row, the battlefield later fell into a brief tranquility. The Western Qin infantry, who were slowly approaching, suddenly seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall. The Western Qin soldiers walking in the front looked at the cavalry that were usually showing off their power and power, as if they were shot off the horse one by one by rain of arrows. They stood there in a daze and stopped subconsciously!
Even so, there were still continuous launches of arrows drilling into the crowd. Thirty or fifty unlucky Western Qin infantry were shot. One of the Western Qin soldiers opened their mouths because of surprise, and the arrow drilled into the mouth.
"The spearmen lined up to attack!"
The command is issued!
I saw the neat spearmen who walked out of the central army formation, holding spears and walking in neat steps. The formation of thousands of soldiers walking at the same time was simply like the earth shaking and shouting neat slogans, which made people easily feel a sense of fear in their hearts.
"kill!"
Take one step and shout.
"kill!"
…………
At this time, Hungan, who was surprised and awakened, noticed that the most elite cavalry shooter in the Western Qin Dynasty had already lost all his achievements.
Let’s look at the spearmen who came out of the Central Army formation. The shocking formation made people feel scared. Then, let’s see that the infantry’s body was standing there trembling and completely lost their fighting spirit.
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Hungan issued a retreat order, and the messengers around him were stunned for a moment. They retreated without even taking the battle?
"Beat the drum, the bow and arrow cavalry chase! Heavy cavalry pressed on!" Li Xiuning saw that the Western Qin soldiers were about to run away, so he temporarily changed the order.
"Dongdongdongdong! Dadongdongdongdong! Dadongdongdong! Dadongdong! Dadong!"
The war drum was the order, and the light cavalry then chased after the Western Qin soldiers. How fast the cavalry was? In a short while, the work uniforms entered the shooting range of the bow and arrow.
"shoot!"
The light cavalry of the Detachment of Women picked up bows and arrows to aim at the Western Qin infantry in one after another. The rain of arrows swept across like a strong wind. A large area of retreating Western Qin soldiers fell down instantly. At this time, no one on the battlefield carefully counted, but the number of people was definitely not small. Before the Western Qin infantry infantry responded, they didn't even hear the screams clearly. Another arrow was as anxious as a rainstorm, and a large area of Western Qin soldiers was shot down again.
After the light cavalry shot the second round, they had already chased behind the Western Qin soldiers, hung their bows and arrows on their horses, pulled out their sabers and the heavy cavalry that followed them, and began to rush forward. In fact, there was no formation now. The battle formation of Western Qin is now in chaos, and the soldiers are running away one after another, so they are still considering the formation.
"Victory?" Li Xiuning, who was standing in front of the formation, saw that the Western Qin formation was in chaos and knew that he had won the battle.
"Victory! Victory!" The generals behind him shouted excitedly, and then all the soldiers shouted together.
The pursuit continues. On the battlefield, the Women's Detachment is now chasing the soldiers, and the Western Qin soldiers are fleeing. Each of the Women's Detachment is a sabre. Anyone who dares to turn around and resist will be able to face it with a knife. If he does not surrender and is still running away, he will also be able to chase it with a knife.
When the escaped Western Qin soldiers saw this situation, how could their legs run past the horses, and simply threw down their weapons and kneeled down to surrender.
Hungan looked at the Western Qin soldiers who had already messed up their formation. Knowing that the situation was hopeless and the blockade had completely failed. He hurriedly led more than a hundred cavalry to report to Xue Ju.
