Daqin Engineers

A few rockets shot from a distance in the direction of the Liangjun from the darkness and nailed them into the open space in front of the position.

This is Chu Jun's ranging.

Ranging in the dark is very important.

In fact, even during the day, ranging is very important, but during the day you can see it so you can find the distance based on experience. At night, you can only rely on rockets to make your eyes dark.

Rocket ranging is very simple. The soldier in the front row points a few rockets and shoots them towards the enemy. If they can shoot into the enemy's formation, it means they have reached the bow and arrow distance.

So my army fired all arrows at the enemy.

But this method is obviously outdated...

Shen Bing nodded to Wei Wei, and Wei Wei sent an order:

"Catapult, sack bomb!"

The messengers use drums to spread orders... This is a disadvantage of night operations. You can't see when you wave the flag, and you can only use voice to transmit information.

However, the Liangjun are veterans, and they are already familiar with this set. With the sound of drums, dozens of trebuchets are loaded with linen fire bombs.

After igniting an order, dozens of fire bombs soared into the sky and went straight to the Chu army.

Then only heard the panic call of Chu Jun, Mai Fireball has been thrown into the army.

Although this linen fireball hit the Chu army because it could not be ignited by the armor, but the fire light illuminates the Chu army clearly, and it instantly became a trend of the enemy's light.

Xiang Liang, the leader of this scene, was taken aback and asked quickly:

"What is that?"

A ministry will answer:

"That might be the rumors that the Qin army used to burn Handan!"

No wonder Xiang Liang didn't know.

In this period, the spread of information was spread by word of mouth, and it was difficult to convince people not to mention the slow speed.

The reason is that there is too much information spread by word of mouth that is getting more exaggerated, so that most of them only believe in half.

The fact that Shen Bing improved the trebuchet to make fire bombs had already spread among the Six Nations. Of course, the Chu army knew about it, but most of them just regarded it as a threatening opponent from the Qin army, so they didn't take it to heart.

At this time, as soon as the Mai fireball came out, Xiang Liang knew that this thing was real.

Before Xiang Liang could react, the second wave of stone bullets followed.

This wave was no longer a sack fireball, but a veritable stone bullet, so after only hearing a scream in the fire, a row of Chu soldiers was knocked to the ground.

There was a burst of cheers from the direction of Qin Jun.

In fact, the trebuchet's stone bullets can't kill a few people...This is a solid bullet, unlike modern artillery bullets that explode and knock down a large piece of shrapnel within tens of meters.

This stone bullet hit a few soldiers because of its rolling and bouncing. Some soldiers couldn't hit one if it happened to hit the formation.

The problem is that the Qin Army’s preemptive momentum has affected the morale of the Qin and Chu armies:

Originally, the Chu army came out in an encircling and raiding posture, and the morale of the Qin army was overwhelmed.

But in a blink of an eye, a wave of stones immediately adjusted their situation.

Chu Jun also had a trebuchet, but it hadn't reached the range yet, so he could only suffer from a dark loss and hardship.

This is sometimes the case in cold weapon warfare. Morale and confidence can affect the outcome.

Of course, Xiang Liang would not admit defeat. He calmly ordered:

"The whole army rushes!"

Xiang Lianghui's order is justified.

If the long-range combat is not better than the Qin army, of course, close combat is necessary, especially if the Liang Army is still unarmed, close combat is bound to be weak.

So Xiang Liang didn't even save the bow fight and chose to directly rush into the battle.

The drums immediately became denser, and the pace of the soldiers of the Chu army became faster and faster with the drums, and then they rushed towards the Qin army with a shout.

Wei Wei hurriedly shouted:

"Ready to meet the enemy!"

The general Wei Wei's command was conveyed in a single voice...At this time, even the drums were not easy to use, because the drums of the enemy and the enemy were mixed together with the sound of killing, and no one could hear it.

Sergeant Liang "drank" and stood in front of the formation at an angle.

But seeing a scream of horses in the dark, the Chu army rushed out of two teams of tanks on the two wings... The Warring States infantry was used to assist in the battle, especially when fighting on a flat battlefield.

These tank-like chariots took diagonal lines from the two wings and rushed into the formation, rushing into the enemy formation, and the infantry rushed forward to fight the enemy.

The torch was even lit on the chariot, and the archer kept igniting the rocket to shoot it into the Qin army.

This is actually to guide the infantry and tell them where to attack.

Xiang Liang watched Qin Jun stick out a row of bamboos from a distance, couldn't help but smile:

"The Qin army is so horrible that he uses bamboo to defend against the enemy. How can this thing resist my chariot rushing into the battle..."

But the face changed before the voice fell.

But seeing that the chariot just hit Mozhu and fell over and over, the chariot fell into a rout.

Where did Xiang Liang know that those are not common bamboo but wolves, barbed wolves.

Even with armor on the chests of those war horses, they would inevitably be cut open when they rushed in at high speed, and then they had to face a row of long spears hidden in the wolf's enclosure.

The other ends of these spears, including the wolf pit, were leaning against the ground.

So the chariot is equivalent to directly rushing into the gun array...This is a long life, and it is a strange thing not to turn on the horse.

Xiang Liang's heart secretly said badly, this battle seemed not as simple as imagined.

But it was already too late to retreat, and Xiang Liang had to bite the bullet and order to continue the attack.

The Chu Army infantry rushed into the formation with a loud shout.

The first few rows are usually sword and shield players, because when the enemy and us are some distance away, they usually release arrows to each other, and the sword and shield players can block arrows with their shields in front.

But when these sword and shield hands rushed into the wolf pit, it was like falling into a bush, with branches and leaves everywhere.

The soldiers’ first reaction was to force their shields, but they immediately discovered something was wrong... the shield was hung by barbs, but some people couldn’t distinguish between branches and barbs in the dark, it was just a face collision. On the hook blade.

So as soon as he rushed into the battle, he let out a cry of pain.

Then when they were blocked in the wolf's pit, the tips of their guns rushed toward their unshielded legs and heads.

After a scream, these sword and shield players fell in a pool of blood.

And these corpses will then become obstacles to the Chu soldiers charging behind. They not only have to worry about the barbs of the wolf and the tip of the gun, but also worry that they will trip over the corpse.

Before the battle, it was only bloody. You came and I fought very hard.

In Shen Bing's view, the Chu army's choice of night attack was definitely a wrong choice.

Because the wolf confinement was used to block the enemy's line of sight, it was more suitable for night battles. Many Chu troops died in confusion without even seeing the Qin Army.

However, the beam army played in an orderly manner. When the front wolves and spears blocked the enemy, the archers from the rear kept shooting forward.

Occasionally, an enemy rushes into the battlefield to consume a small team, and another team will soon come forward to make up.
