Daqin Engineers

Chapter 40

After hesitating for a while, Xun then gritted his teeth and said:

"Fine, I believe you this time!"

"Change formation, separate the trebuchets on two wings!"

A group of craftsmen who had prepared early responded to the promise and waved a small flag to change the formation and arrange the trebuchets into two wings.

Not only did they arrange the two wings, but also oriented the two wings layer by layer according to the meaning of Shen Bing and prepared fire bombs.

At this time, Li Mu's Northern Goblin Riding had appeared on the other side of the wilderness, and Yang Ting had not paid attention to the changes in the rear formation.

However, the husband Chen Kui found that the formation was wrong, and came all the way frantically and ordered Xiu to go back.

Xun used his usual set, pretending to be behind the ears to polish time.

In fact, when the Northern Goblin Riding appeared in Yang Ting's sight, she realized that she had made a mistake.

The Northern Cavalry simply didn't look like they were dismounted, and they had no intention of riding their horses into the formation.

They were divided into two teams, one from the left and the other galloping from the flanks, without slowing down from start to finish.

Yang Ting secretly said that it was bad:

"The enemy cavalry is going to bypass our army."

"The goal is..."

"Great Wall!"

Yang Ting was almost frightened by this thought.

"The Great Wall, Li Mu is going to attack the Great Wall!"

"Why is I so dull? That Shen Bing has repeatedly reminded Li Mu that this is Li Mu's plan to move the tiger away from the mountain!"

"The goal is the Great Wall, how can you fight yourself?"

"What should we do now, how should we do it?"

Yang Ting was at a loss for a while.

Shen Bing guessed right, Li Mu's goal was the Great Wall.

Prior to this, Li Mu prepared two offensive plans.

One is that Qin Jun did not find an ambush.

Then its main force will go straight to Matou Mountain and step into the ambush circle preset by Li Mu.

then……

Then there is no more.

Li Mu will clean up the main force of the Qin army first, and then win the Great Wall together.

At that time, Yang Duanhe had no luck.

Another solution: If the Qin Army finds an ambush, Zhao Jun bypasses the main force of the Qin Army and attacks the Great Wall.

Qin Jun has been out of the Great Wall for more than 20 miles.

Qin is an infantryman and Zhao is a cavalryman.

If Li Mu split up several teams of cavalry to harass, Qin Jun would not be able to return to the Great Wall in a few hours.

But Zhao Jun could take advantage of the speed of the cavalry to rush to the Great Wall for an onslaught.

Even if the main force of Qin rushed back in time, he would have to face the defense laid down by Zhao Jun.

Seeing the five thousand fine riders bypassing from both sides, Qin Jun could only stay where he was.

Li Mu couldn't help showing a smug smile on his face, and he hummed twice at the same time.

At this moment Yang Ting was really panicked, she even shouted in her heart:

"Father, daughter is not filial!"

"Not only failed to save you, but lost the Great Wall!"

"Once the Great Wall is lost, there is no more power to recover..."

however……

Just when Li Mu was triumphant and Yang Ting lost everything.

Suddenly a few flames soared into the sky and went straight to the sides of the formation.

"Let it go!" Shen Bing shouted.

Songming fire bombs once again soared into the air and flew toward the two wings amidst the sound of the machine.

Bundles of ignited Songming rolled down on the splendens that was half a person tall, and immediately ignited wildfires everywhere.

The horses of the northern cavalry mostly fought the Huns in the grasslands or deserts of Mobei. Have you ever seen such a scene?

Suddenly, he was frightened and the formation immediately became chaotic, and some cavalry even fell off their horses...

This is not because the cavalry is not good at cavalry, but that it is common for horses to fall in an era without stirrups and saddles.

This is also the reason why cavalry usually does not directly attack the infantry phalanx. Even in this era, it is more common for cavalry to dismount infantry.

Yang Ting looked back, who else wasn't the artillery?

At that moment, Yang Ting once again realized the feeling of coming to life from desperation.

It's time to come!

How can I forget the artillery?

Isn't it right to use fire bombs at this time?

The northern goblin rider was about to turn his horse to avoid the fire, but saw another wave of fireballs in the air.

This wave is sackcloth.

The fireball flew three hundred steps away like meteors, and after landing, it bounced and rolled along the steep surface.

In a short while, fire broke out, and on both sides of Qin's formation, two walls of fire had emerged from the ground.

Moreover, the wall of fire continued to spread around, and when it was blown by the wind, it spread around like a tide.

In fact, Zhao Jun cavalry can still rush over when the fire is not strong.

However, Li Mu let his subordinates sound the horns and abruptly took the cavalry back.

This is not a question of whether the cavalry can rush through, but whether they can rush through.

What if you can rush through one?

When the fire can't rush to the rear, isn't it divided into several sections abruptly?

Can the cavalry rushing by then conquer the Great Wall?

If it can't be captured, doesn't it mean that all the cavalry are put in?

Li Mu asked the men around him coldly:

"Then Qin Jun is really led by Yang Ting?"

The Ministry will answer:

"Yang Ting indeed."

After a pause, the minister added:

"But according to the spy's report, Qin Jun has a capable person."

The North Army’s marching operations have always focused on intelligence, so they have long been planted in the Great Wall.It's not surprising to know some news.

Li Muqi said: "Able man?"

The Ministry will answer:

"Exactly!"

"This person improved the catapult design fire bomb."

"Wuniu Mountain was defeated because of this."

"I'm afraid that this person is also the one who prevented me from riding with fire!"

Li Mu frowned, and asked dissatisfiedly: "Why did you report this time?"

The minister quickly replied:

"General Kai!"

"Only because of..."

"It's just an artillery soldier, and his subordinates think the intelligence is wrong."

"So I want to find out and report again."

Li Mu hummed:

"What to check out clearly."

"You don't believe that a gunner or soldier has this ability."

"How can intelligence be based on birth?"

Where did the generals dare to speak up, and hurriedly said:

"The general said that it was the fault of his subordinates..."

Li Mu waved his hand impatiently to interrupt the general's words.

At this time, Li Mu had no interest in accountability, fault, etc.

He looked at the Qin Junjun formation from a distance, and said thoughtfully while stroking the beard on his mouth:

"Artillery man and soldier?"

"It turns out to be an artillery man!"

"Could it be that he was the one who found our army ambush?"

...

Shen Bing on the other side is not as leisurely as Li Mu.

When Qin Jun cheered for blocking Zhao Jun's cavalry, Shen Bing anxiously looked towards Yang Ting:

"Withdraw troops!"

"Withdraw to the Great Wall!"

"If you don't withdraw at this time, do you keep it for the New Year?"

If it wasn't for being too far apart to leave the post, Shen Bing would have ran up and yelled at this little Nizi.

But this time Yang Ting finally reacted.

It didn't take long to play the banner of withdrawal.

The formation of the withdrawal is usually a "constant formation", that is, the troops are divided into front, middle, and rear parts.

Several parts shielded each other and retreated to prevent the enemy from attacking.

Only then did Shen Bing breathe a sigh of relief:

What a shit to save my life...
