Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

But this does not mean that the Wei-Chu Allied Forces have no defensive measures against the armored cavalry. Huang Xie looked at the armored cavalry's indomitable appearance, and gave the order with a very gloomy expression: "Send the order, order the strong crossbowman to step forward , must slow down the speed of this armored cavalry!"

Following Huang Xie's order, the big flag behind him was waved immediately, and the rhythm of the drums of the coalition army also changed, sending orders to the soldiers of the coalition army in all directions.

Just when Zhao Kuo heard the sound of the drum, he just used the saber in his hand to chop off the head of a general of the Chu army who was standing in front of him.

If besides Li Mu, there is one person in the younger generation of Zhao Guozhong who knows the armored cavalry well, then this person is definitely Zhao Kuo.

Even though there were chances of being transferred and promoted several times, Zhao Kuo had always firmly held on to his position as an armored cavalry lieutenant, and had no intention of giving it up.

Not for anything else, just for the wanton chopping of melons and vegetables on the battlefield right now, but the enemy is completely enjoying himself helplessly!

The turbulent and continuous enemies in front of him not only did not make Zhao Kuo feel any fear in his heart, but instead made him surge with infinite fighting spirit, shouting and fighting fiercely, only feeling extremely happy.

Suddenly, Zhao Kuo felt that there was nothing in front of him, and when he looked up, he realized that a large open area had been given up in front of him at some point, and behind these open areas were hundreds of large shields as high as people standing, forming a A large shield array with a width of one mile was formed.

In addition, Zhao Kuo can also see very clearly that there is a long crossbow protruding from each shield. With years of experience in the battlefield, Zhao Kuo can recognize it at a glance. What protruded from the gap was the powerful crossbow from the state of Wei.

"Do you want to block with a shield, and then shoot with a crossbow? Is it really a good idea?" Zhao Kuo's mouth in the helmet raised slightly, revealing a murderous arc.

As we all know, heavy cavalry such as armored cavalry have high requirements for speed, and if they want to start up, they must meet a long acceleration time and a long acceleration distance.If the speed is slowed down in such a crowded situation, then the armored cavalry has almost no chance to speed up again.

An armored cavalryman without speed is nothing more than a big tortoise wearing a heavy steel shell. As long as it takes a long time, the Wei-Chu coalition forces will wipe out this big iron-shell tortoise that has completely lost its advantage sooner or later.

So even when he saw the large shield array in front of him like a copper wall and an iron wall, Zhao Kuo didn't hesitate at all, but instead had a stronger fighting spirit.

The horseshoes were flying, and Zhao Kuo had rushed to the distance of about two hundred steps from the shield formation almost in an instant.

At this time, the commander of the Wei army shouted from behind the shield array, and then hundreds of crossbow bolts were shot directly, covering Zhao Kuo and hundreds of armored cavalry behind him.

Almost at the moment when he saw the crossbow shot, Zhao Kuo lowered his head subconsciously.

You must know that the only weakness of Zhao Guo's armored cavalry that may be killed by one blow is the eyes, so as long as you lower your head, Zhao Kuo doesn't have to worry about how much threat these crossbows can pose to him.

As Zhao Kuo expected, several crossbow arrows hit Zhao Kuo's head, chest, lower abdomen and other parts almost at the same time, making several short and crisp sounds in succession.

Zhao Kuo's whole body trembled, and he felt as if he had been punched several times at once, and his body felt uncomfortable for a moment, with a feeling of wanting to vomit.

Although the power of these crossbow bolts is indeed not enough to break Zhao Kuo's armor, the huge force that the crossbow bolts carry when they hit hard still makes Zhao Kuo very uncomfortable.

Fortunately, this uncomfortable moment was thrown away by Zhao Kuo. Just after this round of arrows passed, Zhao Kuo immediately raised his head, took out the bow and arrow from behind the saddle, and bent the bow to string it.

Although it is said that most of the armored cavalry came from the tall Zhao people rather than the nomads and Hu people in the north of Zhao, but as a cavalry, how could it be possible that they could not ride and shoot?

In the past few years of training, these armored cavalry of Zhao State have already practiced the art of riding and shooting very proficiently.Although it cannot be said that everyone is a sharpshooter, in such a situation where the enemy army is so dense, it is enough to be able to shoot arrows out, and this requirement is too easy for armored cavalry.

At the same time that Zhao Kuo was pulling and stringing his bow, hundreds of thousands of armored cavalry behind Zhao Kuo took out their bows and arrows one after another.

Zhao Kuo drew his longbow like a full moon, and then roared, "Shoot him, General!"

With a whoosh, at the same time that the second wave of crossbows shot out from the gap in the shield array, the bows and arrows of Zhao Guogu's armored cavalry also flew high into the sky, drawing a parabola in the sky, which was extremely accurate He quickly bypassed the frontmost shield formation and fell into the position of the coalition crossbowmen behind the shield formation.

In an instant, countless screams sounded from the position of the crossbowmen of the coalition forces, and the entire crossbowman position became chaotic because of this sudden blow, and even the shield formation in front of the crossbowman position also produced a trace of turmoil. confusion.

Zhao Kuo haha, put the bow and arrow in his hand into the saddle bag, and raised the saber in his hand high. The whole person, including man and horse, is like a heavy tank, ruthlessly facing the shield array that is already close at hand. hit the past.

"The traitors of the Wei and Chu countries, today is your death day!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Kuo slammed into the shield in front of him with his horse and man, and only heard a loud bang, and the shield in front of Zhao Kuo was instantly knocked away, and it was hit hard. It hit somewhere a few feet away, bringing up blood and screams.

And Zhao Kuo's whole body was also thrown backwards violently by the force of the rebound, and he almost fell off the horse, but fortunately, Zhao Kuo had quick eyesight and grasped the rein quickly, which allowed him to regain his center of gravity come over.

The next moment, Zhao Kuo was finally pleasantly surprised to find that the Wei-Chu Allied Forces had only one shield array!

At this moment, there is no more that damn shield in front of Zhao Kuo, only countless panicked Wei and Chu allied forces.

Zhao Kuo laughed loudly, held up the saber in his hand, and then slashed down hard: "I will die for this general!"

Behind Zhao Kuo, one after another armored cavalrymen followed in Zhao Kuo's footsteps and launched an attack towards the Wei-Chu coalition forces, crashing wildly into the shield formation formed by the Wei-Chu coalition forces.

Although many horses with armored cavalry were directly knocked down, or knights were knocked off their horses by the shock force on the shield or even broke their bones, but the entire shield array has been completely knocked apart, more The armored cavalry completely broke through the shield line along the road opened by other cavalry.After rushing into the Wei Army's infantry and crossbowmen positions behind the line of defense.

When a group of heavy armored cavalry faces an army formation composed of crossbowmen and light armored infantry, the result is beyond doubt.

This is not a fair battle at all, but a one-sided massacre!

At this moment, in the main formation on the right wing of the coalition forces, Huang Xiejingyang and Tian Chong looked at Zhao Kuo who looked like a god descending from the earth, and the three faces were all stunned.

Damn Qin people, why didn't you explain in advance that this armored cavalry is so fierce?

Zhao Guo's general Le Cheng, who is leading [-] soldiers from Zhao Guo's left wing, is known for his stability, but facing such a good opportunity, how can he miss it?Under Le Cheng's command flag, countless soldiers of the Zhao army swarmed along the road opened up by the armored cavalry, and launched waves of breathless offensives towards the Wei army coalition forces.

The battlefield lasted only half an hour, but the three generals of the Wei-Chu Allied Army discovered in horror that the 15 troops under their command had already started to be defeated!

"Damn it!" Huang Xie couldn't help but roared: "Send someone to ask Wang Lu for help immediately, and ask him to send reinforcements quickly! Also, find a way to stop this hateful armored cavalry, otherwise we will do our best today! Die here!"

Chapter 786 The Crazy Offensive of the People of the Qin Kingdom

Undoubtedly, in the battle situation on the left wing, the coalition forces of the Wei and Chu countries encountered a lot of trouble, but at the same time, in the center of the entire battlefield, the main force of the Zhao army led by Zhao Dan and led by Lian Po also encountered great difficulties. Here comes the trouble.

This time Zhao Guo dispatched not many cavalry troops to Suiyang, except for the armored cavalry, there were only a few thousand light cavalry, which could not be as powerful as the armored cavalry on the battlefield of thousands of horses. Charged into the formation, so Lian Po simply waved all the light armored cavalry to the left flank, so that the two types of cavalry could cooperate with each other and defeat the enemy's right flank in the fastest time.

In addition, in order to strengthen the attack on the Wei-Chu Allied Forces, Lian Po also handed over 20 of the [-] Central Army this time to Le Cheng to attack the Wei-Chu Allied Army, while the remaining [-] Central Army were released separately. In the center and right wing.

In other words, apart from the 10 Central Army of the Central Army led by Lian Po, the remaining [-] people are all county soldiers and young adults from all over Zhao.

If it is facing ordinary troops, this kind of combination is actually worthy of a battle, but right now, corresponding to the main force of the 15 Zhao State Central Army, it is the main force of a full [-] Qin Army.

It is precisely because of this that although the two sides seem to be in equal numbers, the situation has slowly changed to the unfavorable direction for Zhao Jun from the moment they entered the battle.

"Shoot!" An officer of the Qin army roared, and hundreds of Qin crossbowmen who had already completed their formation pressed the trigger at the same time, and shot a wave of extremely dense arrows at the Zhao army swarming in front of them. The soldiers of the army were shot by the arrows and fell to the ground screaming, causing the entire advancing queue to stagnate immediately.

After shooting a wave of arrows, these crossbowmen of the Qin Army began to retreat and rewind in a very disciplined manner. At the same time, many soldiers of the Qin Army with swords and swords rushed out behind them, and rushed forward to strangle with the soldiers of the Zhao Army. Together.

In addition, hundreds of chariots of the Qin army also went straight to kill the Quartet in the position of the Zhao army. The officers of the Central Zhao State made Zhao Jun's command suddenly chaotic. The right hand of the chariot kept sweeping the front with a long dagger. Every time the dagger went down, several soldiers of Zhao Jun would scream and fall to the ground.

Hundreds of chariots led thousands of soldiers of the Qin army as vanguards to rush forward non-stop, with crossbowmen on the left and right flanks as assistance. Their momentum was extremely strong, causing thousands of casualties in a short period of time. Immediately, Zhao Jun suffered heavy losses.

Lian Po, the general of the Zhao army, saw all of this situation, and the general Lian Po's face sank, and he waved his hand vigorously: "Send the order, push the eight-ox crossbow up, and bombard the chariot of the Qin army! "

With Lian Po's order, dozens of huge eight-ox crossbows that had shown their power in the Battle of Suiyang City were immediately pushed to the front line amidst the shouts of thousands of fighters, and slowly aimed at hundreds of steps. Outside, the Qin army's chariots were killing all directions.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Zhao army on the front line were defeated by the Qin army, and they all retreated towards the position of the Ba Niu crossbow.

The two or five hundred leaders of the Zhao army shouted with all their strength: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

However, no one listened to him, and the scattered soldiers of the Zhao army ran around like headless flies, causing a little chaos in the Baoxu crossbow position.

At this moment, a Zhao Guo general rushed over and shouted: "Why didn't you launch it?"
