Chapter 755 The King of Infantry
Chapter 753: The King of Infantry
These five thousand cavalry are the ace of the coalition''s victory, so Wu Han will certainly not send them all. In his opinion, the cavalry is born to restrain infantry, so sending two thousand is enough.
Among the two thousand cavalry sent by Wu Han, one thousand were the Western Liang Iron Cavalry, and one thousand were the Jingzhou Cavalry.
Two thousand cavalry rushed towards the Qin army like a sea of ??storms. The momentum was extremely huge, and even the earth fought for it.
Seeing this, Gao Shun''s eyes flashed with fear. Although the camp was heavy infantry, it was not necessarily worse than the cavalry when he fought, but heavy infantry was still infantry after all, and it was unwise to fight hard for cavalry.
"Fortunately, there is already a new type of shield, otherwise there would be a lot of casualties this time."
Gao Shun said in his heart, then shouted: "Stop the march and prepare for the shield."
With Gao Shun''s order, the soldiers of the trapped camp immediately stopped and raised their shields. The orders were so prohibited, which was rare in the world.
Gao Shun looked at the scattered cavalry on the opposite side indifferently, waved his sword and pointed it straight at the enemy, shouting coldly: "One or two battalions, spread out, and set up a group of wolves and shield formations."
"The ambition to fall into battle is to die but not live..."
The two thousand soldiers in the front stalking camp quickly dispersed while shouting. Less than two hundred people formed a large group, and then activated the small mechanism on the shield and connected the shields with the left and right to form a giant shield.
The shields equipped by the Qin army are all unified standard shields, and only the shields of the trap camp are characteristic steel strong shields. There is a solid small mechanism on the edge of this shield, but they are connected in series to form an extremely solid whole.
The huge shield on ten sides was quickly assembled on the battlefield.
After seeing this scene, not only the Jingzhou coalition forces, but also the Qin army behind them were shocked. This is too high-tech, right?
"Damn? Why does he have a good thing every time he has Gao Shun''s camp? The lord is too biased. If not, I want it too."
Li Cunxiao said with a jealous look on his face. Although he didn''t know the specific function of this assembled shield, it was obviously a good thing at first glance.
Bai Qi glanced at Li Cunxiao and said lightly: "That is an infantry shield. Even if it is given to Feihu Camp, can you use it?"
Li Cunxiao opened his mouth, but he was speechless. Who told him that his Flying Tiger Army was a cavalry? It was impossible to use good equipment in front of him. That feeling was as uncomfortable as being scratched by a cat.
Zhou Yu''s eyes were full of stunning expressions, and then he asked Bai Qi: "General, you have known the power of the new shield formation in the Cangzhen Camp for a long time, so that the ten thousand troops behind him can connect with the enemy''s central army with minimal casualties?"
Bai Qi did not answer directly, but instead answered the question erroneously: "If you want to successfully defeat the enemy, you must first fully understand yourself, so that you can use every bit of power in your hand just right."
A thoughtful look flashed in Zhou Yu''s eyes, and he looked thoughtful. After a while, he took a deep breath and clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, General Zhou Yu has received the teaching."
Bai Qi nodded and said nothing more. He was optimistic about Zhou Yu''s future, so he took the initiative to mention him. If Li Cunxiao asked him with a elm-headed and elusive head, Bai Qi would definitely not bother to pay attention to it, because even if Li Cunxiao said that, he would not be able to understand it.
In the coalition camp, Wu Han saw that Gao Shun''s army was in a short while and assembled a thousand-faced small shield into a ten-faced giant shield wall and stood up in place. He felt a bad feeling in his heart.
"The shield wall composed of two hundred shields should be able to be broken away by the impact of the cavalry, right?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Wu Han''s eyes. Obviously, he was not sure, but the cavalry had already rushed out. You can''t come back without even touching the enemy, right?
"Even if it will cause considerable losses, the Qin army''s turtle shell must be broken."
As soon as he thought of this, Wu Han did not hesitate at all and shouted decisively: "Charge."
Seeing this, Gao Shun shouted: "Prepare the javelin, go forward, prepare, and throw." Bai Qi had already expected in advance that the coalition might send cavalry to the trapped camp, so Gao Shun brought three thousand javelins in advance, which was indeed very useful.
The thousand soldiers behind the shield formation immediately took off the javelin they carried when they heard the order. When the cavalry approached the shield formation fifty meters, a thousand javelins threw them out at the cavalry team.
Brush…Brush…Brush…
Three-wheeled javelin throws, three thousand javelins, which caused at least six or seven hundred casualties to the cavalry, and for a while, the battlefield was full of sorrow.
Listening to the screams on the battlefield, Liu Xiu''s heart was bleeding. There were many Western Liang cavalry among them, and one of the Western Liang cavalry in his hand died less than one.
"As long as you can get close, with the impact of the cavalry, you will definitely be able to break through the shield formation. This casualty is completely worth it." Liu Xiu comforted himself in his heart.
Liu Xiu miscalculated. If it were an ordinary shield, it would naturally not be able to withstand the impact of the cavalry, but the shield in the trap camp was unusual, and it was a strong shield with a characteristic weighing forty kilograms on each side.
After two hundred shields form a whole, it is a steel wall weighing 8,000 kilograms, and it is both prosperous and the other is damaged. In addition, the area of ??force is limited and the support of the soldiers behind it is supported by the soldiers. How can light cavalry break through?
Boom...boom...boom...boom...boom...
The coalition cavalry continued to attack the shield formation of the trapped camp, but the ending was that the people were knocked over under the shield formation, while the shield wall was intact, but the position was slightly moved backward.
"How is this possible?"
Liu Xiu, Wu Han, and the entire coalition forces were all stunned and could not believe that this was true.
What kind of shield is this? It''s too hard. Everyone said in their hearts.
"The Qin army shield, no, is all weapons, and the steel used is much stronger than ordinary steel."
Liu Xiu said in his heart that he had no choice but to doubt that the Qin army''s equipment was indeed much more advanced than theirs.
"Did Qin Hao get a new method of smelting?"
In a blink of an eye, a trace of understanding flashed in Liu Xiu''s eyes and he thought to himself: "Qin Hao must have received help from the Mo family or the Gong family, otherwise it would be impossible to create such excellent weapons. It seems that I must also contact the Baijia."
Liu Xiu also knows that cooperating with Baijia is about making a fuss with Hu, but as long as he controls himself properly, he can still get benefits. Dong Zhuo and Qin Hao are the best examples.
Just as Liu Xiu was thinking about it, new changes took place on the battlefield.
After several rounds of impact, the two thousand cavalry had already fallen under the shield wall. Even though they knew that they would not break the giant shield, they would naturally not fly into the flames when they arrived later, but wanted to bypass the shield wall.
A hint of mockery flashed in Gao Shun''s eyes, and then he shouted: "Form a round formation."
“Hey…hey…hey…hey…”
Two hundred soldiers put their strength together, and each side had a huge shield weighing thousands of pounds, which was moving quickly and began to change into formation again.
