The Jagged Empire of Daqin

Wang Kai is the Shu general in charge of the west bank defense line. After being bombarded by the Qin army, he led his army back to the valley immediately, and took the remnants of the west bank defense line to the valley for rest.

"Twelve thousand!" Wang Kai replied respectfully.

He originally had [-] troops, but after being bombarded by the Qin army's artillery, he suffered [-] casualties, leaving only [-] troops under his command.

Du Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes burst into several gleams, and said in a calm tone: "General Wang, you are in charge of the defense line on the west bank. Now that the defense line on the west bank is lost, if your majesty finds out, I'm afraid you will be furious. Even if you belong to the Wang family The eldest son will not escape His Majesty's punishment, at least he will be dismissed from his position, and at worst it will harm the whole family, General Wang must be very clear about His Majesty's character, His Majesty hates defeated generals the most!"

Wang Kai is not an ordinary general. He is from the Wang family, one of the four great aristocratic families in the Great Shu, and he is still the eldest son. Anyone who dared to retreat privately would have been cut down long ago.

And Du Qi said these words to Wang Kai inexplicably now, just to remind Wang Kai that he is a guilty body and needs to make meritorious service.

Wang Kai was young, he had not been in the army for long, and the city was very shallow. When he heard Du Qi's words, his face turned pale in fright, and he knelt down on one knee and raised his hand to compose. In the end, the general is willing to make atonement for his crimes!"

He is not afraid of Shu Emperor Du Xiao, but he is afraid of the Wang family's family law, which is strict. Anything that insults the family or affects the whole family will be severely punished. If you don't die, you have to shed a layer of skin.

Before the family law, everyone in the Wang family is equal. Even if he is the eldest son, he will be punished. This punishment is much heavier than the national law.

Seeing Wang Kai immediately submitting, Du Qi was very proud, and felt the pleasure of playing with others and applauding.

"General Wang, my father and your father are very close friends. If only this old man knew about this matter, I would naturally hide it from General Wang. But all the soldiers in the army have seen it. General Wang, in less than half an incense stick, you The defense line on the west bank was lost, and the morale of the entire Shuhe army plummeted!"

"Your Majesty and your father will not be able to appease your anger if you count many crimes, but General Wang, don't worry, the old man has a way to save you. As long as you make meritorious service before the army, the old man will use this to speak well to His Majesty, and even invite you In this way, not only will General Wang not be convicted, but he will be rewarded instead!"

As expected of an old fox, Du Qi hit Wang Kai with a whole set of combo moves, which made Wang Kai terrified before he was happy. He couldn't wait to ask: "The general said directly, as long as he can make meritorious service before the army, the general will definitely do his best!"

Wang Kai was completely led by the nose by Du Qi.

"Okay, since General Wang has the heart to make amends, I don't dare not give up the chance. As long as General Wang leads [-] troops out of the valley and goes straight to the Qin army's shield formation, persist for half an hour. It's a great achievement!" Du Qi finally showed his fox tail.

PS: "Please book in full!"

Chapter 921 Bombing the Great Valley!

Du Qi needs Wang Kai to help him delay the time and slow down the progress of the Qin Army's cannons. In this way, his boulder can be smashed into the Qin Army's shield before the Qin Army's cannons are put together. , the purpose can be achieved.

Although there are so many, the two Gu Shu armies will be wiped out, but as long as they can block the advance of the Qin army, even if there is only one soldier left in the battle, it is worth it.

Hearing the first half of Du Qi's words, Wang Kai was a little excited at first, thinking that he had a chance to make amends, but when he heard that he led an army out of the valley to fight the Qin army head-on, Wang Kai's excitement turned into fear .

Attacking the Qin army's shield formation head-on, is there any chance of survival?Also, my subordinates are all the remnants of the West Bank army, and they have not recovered from the thunder bombing of the Qin army. Taking them up, I am afraid that they will hit the stone with an egg, and everyone will be afraid of fighting!

"General, looking at the shield formation of the Qin army, at least there are more than 15 troops, but the last general has only [-] remnants, and the morale is low. Isn't this a frontal impact, isn't it hitting a stone with an egg?" concern.

The west bank is densely packed with well-equipped Qin troops, rushing up to seek death.

"It's because of hitting a rock with an egg, it's a great achievement!" Du Qi said with a half-smile.

Wang Kai fell silent, this sentence is not without reason, the greater the difficulty, the greater the credit.

Wang Kai gritted his teeth, bit the bullet and responded: "The last general takes orders, and immediately leads our soldiers to charge down the valley!"

Du Qi smiled gratifiedly, and immediately helped Wang Kai up and said with a smile: "The old man will wait for the good news, and the general will go slowly!"

Wang Kai bowed down again to salute and bid farewell, and then summoned his remnant army. The remnant army on the west bank was shocked when they heard the order to charge in Xiagu, and some couldn't believe it.

His grandma, who had managed to save her life from the gate of hell, and now she is going again, with so many Qin troops, isn't going out of the valley purely courting death?

The military order is like a mountain, and even though the remnant army on the west bank is afraid of the Qin army, they have to follow Wang Kai down the mountain, but Wang Kai didn't say anything to boost morale, let alone what rewards after winning. In the eyes of Wang Kai, the children of the big family, Qiu Ba is Tu Qiu Ba, who was born to work for the noble class.

Who cares if they die?

Just when Wang Kai led his soldiers down the valley, an ugly bull-style artillery was successfully put together, and the hideous muzzle of this ugly cow-style artillery was facing the Dagu Fortress five hundred steps away!

One door...two doors...three doors...

Gradually, one ugly cow-style artillery piece after another was assembled, lined up on the thousands of feet long west coastline!

"Ok?"

On the east coast, Yang Zhong, under the banner of the Chinese Army, found some figures of the Shu army and round boulders on the edge of the valley top. Seeing this, Yang Zhong subconsciously looked down the edge of the valley top, which was the shield formation of the Qin army. If a boulder falls from above, with the density of the Qin army, one boulder can kill five or six people.

Yang Zhong looked at his artillery position again, and found that there were only ten or twenty Ugly Bull artillery pieces assembled.

"Order, after the entire army retreats to the artillery position, the artillery position will start shelling immediately!" The situation was urgent, and Yang Zhong didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately issued an order for the entire army to retreat and the artillery position to start shelling immediately.

"The general has an order, the whole army retreats!"

"The artillery position immediately launches shelling, there must be no mistakes!"

"Reload hand reload!"

Yang Zhong ordered the entire army to be conveyed in an orderly manner. After the order was issued, the 20 soldiers of the Qin Army on the edge of the valley immediately retreated to avoid the range of the boulders hitting them. Shelling in parts of the Great Valley!

Among the fifteen ugly bull cannons, thirteen were aimed at the Dagu Fortress, and the other two were aimed at the mountains on the left and right sides of the fortress.

The Dagu Fortress and the Dagu Mountain are about [-] paces away from the Qin Army artillery position. This distance is actually the blind spot of the Ugly Bull Cannon, because no matter how the barrel is extended, there is no barrel extension index for [-] paces.

However, the Great Valley Fortress is very high, and the gun barrels only need to be extended by one finger, and the shells will not bypass the Great Valley Fortress, and will hit the Great Valley Fortress firmly. The other two artillery barrels aimed at the mountain only need to Stretching four fingers, you can hit the top of the valley, but the accuracy is hard to say.

But what the Qin army wants is not accuracy, but deterrence, so that the Shu army can understand that they are all among the targets of thunder, and it is useless to hide on the top of the valley, and they will still be bombed. As long as you understand this, The morale of the Shu army is bound to collapse.

Because the last breath of the Shu army's morale is supported by the Shu army's belief that the top of the valley is absolutely safe. Knowing that the top of the valley is not safe, it makes no sense for the army's morale not to collapse.

Du Qi, who was standing on the big rock at the top of the valley, saw the Qin army retreating, and was suddenly overwhelmed. His plan was actually seen through by the Qin army!

But if you think about it carefully, isn't the plan to smash the Qin army with boulders to confuse the Qin army's shield formation so that Chugu's army can successfully destroy the Qin army's large equipment?Now that the Qin army has withdrawn the shield formation, isn't it just in line with his own wishes?

Thinking of this, Du Qi felt a lot better.

"Order General Wang and Deputy General Liu to lead the army out of the valley together and destroy the Qin army's large equipment at all costs!" Du Qi shouted decisively.

"As ordered!"

The messenger immediately got the order and quickly conveyed the order to Wang Kai and Liu En.

Wang Kai and Liu En have already come to the valley from the top of the valley, but their army has not all gone down the valley, only one or two thousand soldiers have come down, and another [-] soldiers are going down the valley.

"fire!!"

Suddenly at this time, a loud roar came from the artillery position of the Qin Army!

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"

There were bursts of muffled noises from the artillery position of the Qin Army, and the huge recoil shook the dust around the artillery, and the shells burst out from the barrel, causing the barrel to spew out bursts of fireworks along the way.

"Qin Jun Tianlei is here!"

"Hurry up and hide!"

"Shanggu!"

When the familiar muffled sound reached the ears of the generals and soldiers of the Shu army, it instantly made the Shu army frightened, especially the Shu army who had just descended the valley. Panicked, but not yet afraid, thinking that the Qin army's thunder could not hit the top of the valley.

But the next scene let them know that they were wrong!

"Boom"

"boom"

"boom"

Violent explosions sounded endlessly, shells hit the fortress at Taniguchi one after another, erupting with terrifying power, easily tore apart the seemingly incomparably strong fortress piece by piece, and the valley tops on the left and right sides of the valley also fell one after another. A cannonball just hit the soldiers of the Shu army who were carrying the boulder.

PS: "Please recommend a ticket, ask for a monthly ticket!"

Chapter 922 Shuhe Victory!

"boom"

Beautiful fireworks bloomed on the top of the valley, and the blazing heat wave swept away with billowing smoke and dust. The boulder and the soldiers of the Shu army were torn into pieces together, and the pieces also smashed in all directions with power. The Shu army within [-] steps from the center of the explosion Either dead or disabled.

The entire valley was shaken, and many soldiers of the Shu army on the top of the valley lost their foothold and accidentally fell down from the top of the valley, turning into a corpse with cracked bones and bloody flesh.

The sky was dry and dry, and after the artillery exploded, a circle of fire was left behind. The fire swept along the dry weeds and swept around. The billowing thick smoke stimulated the Shu army, making the Shu army burst into tears, coughing and covering their noses.

"boom"

"Boom"

The Qin Army kept bombarding the fortress and the big valley. Every time the shell fell, it seemed to hit the hearts of the soldiers of the Shu Army, one after another, until they lost all their momentum and fighting spirit, and every soldier of the Shu Army became a panic. The bereaved dog ran away in a hurry.

The Shu army in the valley, as well as Liu En and Wang Kai have also disappeared.

Du Qi slumped down on the big rock disheartened, and muttered to himself with a dead face: "It's over, it's over..."

He knew that in this battle, the Shu army was defeated, a huge defeat!

Du Qi stood up straight, and slowly pulled out the sword from his waist, and put it on his neck. He took a deep breath, closed his eyes and muttered to himself: "Brother Emperor, I'm here to look for you!" !"

"Pfft!"

A stream of blood spattered out, and Du Qi fell limply...

"boom"

"Help!"

"Run!"

"The great general killed himself, the great general killed himself!"

"Withdraw, withdraw!"

The sound of violent artillery fire mixed with the shrill panic echoed throughout the valley!

With the passage of time, more and more Ugly Bull cannons were assembled, and the scale of bombardment of the Great Valley became larger and larger. Gradually, the entire Great Valley was covered by a sea of ​​flames, and there was no tragic sound except for the sound of artillery fire and the sound of burning fire. cry.

However, the Qin army did not give up the bombardment, and continued to bombard it, until the valley fortress was completely flattened, and the bombardment stopped until two mountain roads were blown out.

About half an hour later, under more than 30 rounds of shelling by the Qin army, the fortress in the valley was razed to the ground. Everything in the valley was seen by the soldiers of the Qin army, but they didn't see anything, because the valley was full of fire, and it could be seen from a long distance away. Feel the fiery temperature.

There was still a smell of barbecue in the air, and a few wild boars were faintly seen fleeing in a hurry in the sea of ​​flames, and finally exhausted, they fell down on the hot ground with a plop, turning into a roast pig.

There is also a mountain road blasted on the left and right sides of the valley. Although the mountain road is narrow, it can also be used for people to climb the valley easily. With these two mountain roads, the difficulty of attacking the natural barrier of the Shu River has been greatly reduced.

An hour later, the fire in the valley near the west bank had been extinguished. Yang Zhong sent a battalion of infantry on each side of the valley to the valley to check the situation. There were only a few charred bodies and remains in the valley.

Hearing this news, Yang Zhong heaved a sigh of relief. He lived up to his grace and successfully captured the Shu River. The next step is to occupy the Great Valley, put out the fire, rest in place for a whole day, and choose another day to march westward and capture the city!

Yanshui's 30 troops attacked from the moment of the hour until the end of the afternoon, and it took a long time to end the battle.

Compared with the smoothness and speed of other battlefields, the Battle of Shuhe was considered slow, but it also proved that the terrain of the Shu Dynasty was complicated, and a mere 30 troops could withstand the continuous bombing of [-] Qin troops and artillery for most of the day.

In the Battle of Shuhe, the Qin army had zero casualties, and the number of enemies wiped out is unknown, but it is estimated to be almost [-]. Knowing the approximate number of enemies wiped out, you can know how many Shu troops fled. About [-] Shu troops fled.

On the first day when the Great Qin launched an all-out war, Manshan Pass fell in the Great Xia Dynasty, Shalong Pass and Changmen in the Great Zhao Dynasty fell, Xishui Pass and Tankou Pass fell in the Great Qi Dynasty, and the Shuhe important area in the Great Shu Dynasty fell.

All together, the Qin army wiped out 50 enemies and captured 84 prisoners on the southern border within one day. About 21 troops from various countries escaped, and 150 million and [-] troops from various countries died.

The Qin army sent all the captured prisoners of war to the mainland of Daqin and handed them over to the nearest government for processing. Governments in various places on the border were also ready to accept prisoners of war and housed and detained them.

After their first major victory on the southern border, the Qin army did not choose to immediately launch a covering attack and pull out the fortresses. They all chose to rest and reorganize, first deal with the aftermath of the battle, and then choose to continue marching.

And on the first day of the all-out war, Yingchang led the 20 capital battalion and 30 supply battalion, and the [-] direct artillery battalions were still on their way on the grassland. They had not yet arrived at Yanshui Pass, which was still about half a month away. the distance.

Two days in a flash!

Total War Day Three, May [-]rd!

De-wood its Southern Prairie region!

The mighty 50 black-armored army lined up a thick long dragon to march on the flat and vast grassland. The Great Qin Emperor Ying Chang, the Great Qin Wu King Bai Qi, and the Great Qin Prince Ying Jiang rode tall horses and stood in the ranks of the Chinese army. .

Pei Ji, Xu Shui, Cao Zhen, and Lu Quan followed behind the three of them on horseback.

"Today is May [-]rd, the third day of the outbreak of the all-out war, and I don't know what the situation is like on the battlefields!" the First Prince Ying Jiang muttered softly with a rather worried expression.

Hearing Ying Jiang's muttering, Pei Ji grinned loudly behind him and said, "Don't worry, eldest prince, our Daqin has artillery, and any fortified city in front of our Qin army will be crispy tofu, which can be destroyed easily. The appearance of the prestige, the nations will be shocked, maybe, the alliance of the nations to attack Qin will end here, haha!"

Pei Ji was as optimistic as Ying Chang about the matter of defeating Qin, and was not at all worried about defeat on the front line.

You can still lose with artillery, and you can still be a fart. Go home, wash and sleep.

"Remember, in the future, if you lead an army into battle, or sit in the palace, you must never say such a thing. Even if you care about the front line, you must keep it in your heart, and you must not let others see your worries!" Ying Chang was expressionless. , said softly with a deep tone.

When Ying Jiang heard this, the worry on his face quickly disappeared, replaced by confidence!

He understood the meaning of his father. When he led the army to go out, he was the commander. When he was in the palace, he was the emperor. Whether it was the former or the latter, he was the person who gave hope to thousands of people. Followed by worry, it leads to turmoil in the army and unstable morale.

"My son, please remember!" Ying Jiang nodded confidently and solemnly.

PS: "Please order in full, order in full, order in full!"
