Daqin Engineers

The Chu Jun's charge was blocked by Qin Jun like a flood hitting a dam, wave after wave surged up, wave after wave was beaten back.

Moreover, the Chu army in front was rushing, and the Qin army kept shooting arrows at the back of the Chu army.

This is another advantage of the Mandarin Duck Array, which can match the distance and length.

For example, long spears, wolves, and sword and shield soldiers cooperate, and the crossbowmen are not idle behind.

There were even trebuchets in the rear that continuously fired stone bullets.

But Chu Jun could not do this.

In order to ensure the continuity of the assault force and the fear of accidental injury, the army’s charge in this era requires the rear crossbowmen to release arrows only before and at the beginning of the encounter, and retreat after receiving the enemy to avoid becoming an obstacle.

And Qin Jun is exactly the Liangjun formation is obviously more flexible.

In addition, these archers can also be converted into swords and shields at any time...The shield is a light-weight rattan shield, and the bronze sword is standard equipment for self-defense hung on the waist.

Once the wolves in front are broken by the enemy, only the captain gives an order, the crossbowmen will retract their bows and draw their swords to step forward for reinforcement.

At this time, the strength training of the Liang Army during this period of time was just used. They either split with swords or pushed with shields, and the soldiers of the Chu army stayed out of the defense.

The Wolves from the rear took advantage of this time to come up.

Xiang Liang couldn't help being shocked when he saw this.

If he realized that he underestimated the enemy and then withdrew, it would be okay, and the loss would not be too great.

However, Xiang Liang was unwilling.

Xiang Liang thought to himself:

This battle is unreasonable!

To be prepared to fight against the unprepared, and to fight against the unarmored army with elite soldiers, plus the Chu army's strength, is there a reason for invincibility?

Therefore, Xiang Liang not only did not withdraw his troops, but instead ordered the Fu troops at the two ends to come for reinforcements.

There were 20,000 troops at the two ends, and they were originally used to prevent the Liang Army from escaping.

But now the beam army is rigorously rectifying the whole formation without fleeing, and of course they don't need to continue to ambush. After getting orders, they will outflank the beam army from both ends.

No wonder Xiang Liang would have hope for this.

In ancient times, it was a taboo to be surrounded by enemies in combat.

The reason is that the enemy is located on the periphery, and can put as much force as possible into the battle within a unit time.

However, the space for activities of the encircled troops is very limited. Once the outer line of defense retreats, the internal space will be compressed again, and the inside is crowded and chaotic, unable to exert its due combat power.

But what Xiang Liang didn't know was that the Liangjun didn't need to worry about such encirclement, at least there was no need to worry about being surrounded on three sides.

The first is that the combination of the wolf bell and the spear in the hands of the Liangjun is a defensive weapon, which can easily block the enemy's charge and avoid space compression.

Followed by the Black Armored Army in the Bianhe behind.

If anyone has the most advantage in this battle, it must belong to the Black Armour.

If the Chu Army wanted to encircle the Liang Army on three sides, the flanks of its front and rear armies would inevitably be exposed to the Black Armored Army.

The Black Armored Army is riding a wheeled warship in the river without worrying about getting close to the enemy, and the whole body of rattan armor is not afraid of bows...

So there is no need to worry about your own safety at all, just let go of your guts and throw arrows at the flank of the Chu army in the river.

On the other hand, the two Chu army before and after joining the new battle group... They could not break through the beam army, and they could not deal with the black armour's bow. Not only did they fail to "flip" the beam army, they were in the beam army and black armour Under flanking.

Chu Jun was beaten and wailed for a while, with countless casualties.

Even more deadly was that it was dark at this time, and Xiang Liang, who was at the back of the battle formation, couldn't see the tragedy of the Chu army on the side of Bianhe.

Xiang Liang also said that the Qin army would collapse soon under his siege, so he shouted:

"Attack, keep on attacking!"

"Anyone who bravely kills the enemy has a reward!"

It wasn't until the two armies had a bloody battle for a stick of incense that a messenger covered in blood came to report:

"General, there are countless deaths and injuries before the army, Lieutenant General Li asks for reinforcements!"

At this time, Xiang Liang realized that the battlefield situation was not what he had imagined, and hurriedly asked:

"How can the former army suffer countless casualties?"

The messenger answered:

"Our army was unable to break through the Qin army's defense line, and was attacked by the Bianhe Qin army from the side..."

Xiang Liang was stunned for a long time, and then his weak opponent ordered:

"Receive troops, Mingjin retreats..."

The reason why the Liangjun has been on the defensive is not because he was afraid of the Chu army, but because the Chu army rushed to find the way of death like moths to the fire, so why not do it.

At this time, as soon as the Chu army withdrew, Shen Bing certainly would not let them go easily:

"Chasing, ten miles back to the army!"

Immediately, the Liangjun shouted to kill Zhentian and launched a counterattack.

The Chu army had already lost all morale at first. At this moment, seeing the momentum of the Liang army's counterattack so fierce, no matter where he dared to resist it, he pulled back and fled.

But Chu Jun could not run away but also could not run away from Liang Jun... All of the Chu Jun wore armor, but the Liang Jun was lightly dressed, especially during this period, the Liang Jun had been accustomed to jogging the next day.

However, Chu Jun rarely had such training, even with or without the strength of Liang Jun, so he couldn't run panting for a few miles.

As a result, the Liang army from behind surged up like a tide...

If it weren't for Shen Bing's worry that there would be an ambush in the dark night, they would only be allowed to chase for ten miles, I'm afraid they would chase Chen Cheng all the way tonight.

However, Shen Bing was a little uncomfortable when the Liangjun returned, because many of them were holding the head of the Chu army in their hands and cheering high...

Shen Bing secretly asked, could this savage and ferocious thing also be contagious?

This was the case of the Qin army before, and it was the same after these Wei soldiers surrendered!

But thinking about it, it’s not surprising... They are soldiers fighting against the enemy on the battlefield, so this is not brutal and ferocious for them, but brave and bloody.

What's more important is that these heads also represent merit and glory, meaning that their relatives will be proud of them when they can get freedom and get benefits such as fiefdoms and homesteads.

So how can they not be ecstatic.

Even Wei Wei couldn't hide his joy. He sighed and said to Shen Bing:

"The lieutenant is wise, the subordinates admire it!"

"The lieutenant has used all the training of the Liang Army in these two months and is just right. It is as if this battle was foreseen..."

In fact, how did Shen Bing know that there was such a battle?

This battle shouldn't be in history...Is there any record of Shen Bing in the specific history? I don't know if there is Shen Bing.

The reason why Shen Bing trained like that was to pick up the most important training items in army combat, that's all.

Xiang Liang, on the other side, was frightened by this battle.

After he fled to Chencheng, he didn't even dare to return to the city.

Because as soon as the soldiers returned to the city, the Qin army from behind might block them in the city after catching up. They wanted to leave and couldn't leave.

Xiang Liang assembled his army outside the city, and then ordered the five thousand soldiers in Chencheng to transport the grain and grass out, and then went straight to Ruyin, the next line of defense.
