Chapter 1243: Hard to shake
Standing at the highest point of the Shuanglian City, Qin Feng looked at the battlefield not far away.
"It's much weaker than Deng Su's Iron Cavalry." He murmured.
Deng Su's number of iron cavalry was not large, but its sharpness was much stronger than the Thunder Army. The Battle of Hengdian was the most dangerous war that Qin Feng encountered since the day of his reprimand. Even when he faced Moro's hundreds of thousands of troops, he had only more than 10,000 troops, it was much more dangerous.
The most cruel battlefield at that time was when Deng Su's iron cavalry faced the miner's camp. With a blow, Deng Su smashed several layers of the miner's camp's military formation and was deeply embedded in the miner's camp's military formation. It was not far from the breaking formation. If Deng Su had been allowed to penetrate the miner's camp's battle formation at that time, the Battle of Hengdian might be another result.
In the end, the miners' camp withstood Deng Su's attack and dragged down the invincible cavalry. The price paid by the miners' camp was that the casualties of the entire camp reached two-thirds.
But now facing the Thunder Army, the Miner Battalion is not simply taking a defensive position, but leading the attack. This is completely different from when he fought fiercely with Deng Su's troops. The Miner Battalion is called the most powerful army in the Ming army because of this battle.
The heavy infantry withdrew the impact of the full armored cavalry, which was not in history. The reputation of the miner's battalion shocked the mainland, and Qi and Chu began to study the application of heavy armored infantry in the army.
Heavy armored cavalry and heavy armored infantry are all army with extremely obvious advantages and disadvantages, with large investment and few applications. In the end, Qi State also learned from the Ming State that it also equipped the heavy armored troops of such a battle camp, while Chu State had to cancel such a high-investment plan due to the sharp deterioration of its finances later.
"Your Majesty, the Thunder Army is weaker than Deng Su's Iron Cavalry back then, but the miners' camp is stronger than that back then." A general from the Fire Death Camp standing beside Qin Feng whispered.
"That's true!" Qin Feng nodded with a smile. Over the years, the selection of troops in the miners' camp has become increasingly harsh, and being eight feet tall is the most basic requirement. The lives of the people in the Ming Dynasty have become richer and richer, and the people are eating better and better, and their figures are getting stronger and stronger. The miners' camp is at least much wider than before, and is no longer limited to selection from miners. As long as the requirements of the miners' camp are met, they can be elected.
Furthermore, their weapons and armor are no longer the same as back then. The armor is much lighter than before, but its protection ability is increasing. Otherwise, those heavy infantry wrapped in iron armor would not have jumped up on the frame of a carriage. It would have been great if they could take steps and trot after wearing heavy armor. Ordinary soldiers would basically not be able to move when wearing such a set of armor.
The slashing saber in his hand has been improved for several generations. In addition to the sharpness of the knife itself, it has extremely strict craftsmanship to the center of gravity, length, etc. The only purpose is to allow the person who uses this knife to exert the maximum lethality with the least strength.
This is due to the powerful advanced technology of iron and steel making and the special weapon research department of Ming Dynasty. With the same knife, Qi and Ming Dynasty seem to be no different from each other, but when the actual battle is played, you will find a huge difference.
The Ming Miner Battalion was indeed invincible on a specific battlefield. Qin Feng estimated that even if he was trapped in the army of the Miner Battalion, the final result would be to be exhausted by these iron cans and then split into pieces.
Compared with the fierceness of the miner's battalion on the other side, it is much more concise. The traditional infantry defends the formation of cavalry. Before the positions, there are various obstacles, trenches, horse-resisting horses, antlers, thunderbolts, and powerful crossbows that are a bit outrageous. The crossbows before the infantry are densely packed with one after another.
Who made them have a large number of weapons here? Chen Zhihua is not afraid of not enough, but is afraid of not enough people. After all, whether it is a thunderbolt crossbow or a crossbow machine, it requires special training before it can be used proficiently, and it cannot be used casually by pulling individuals.
Of course, Chen Zhihua took advantage of his innate advantage of being the maker of the war plan and had already made some preparations, so the number of long-range weapons of the Giant Wood Battalion is more than twice that of the ordinary war battalion.
After the dense crossbows, there is a huge shield formation. After the shield formation, rows of spear soldiers formed a cold and lush gun forest. Among the gun forest, there are strong archers hidden. Unlike other military camps, there are basically no archers now. Because Chen Zhihua himself is a sharpshooter, the archer army is still retained in the Giant Wood Camp. Of course, this archer is not the other archer. They all drive strong bows, and all bows and arrows are specially customized.
The main general Chen Zhihua now uses all the cloud-piercing bows from Molo back then. Molo's colorful cloud-piercing arrows have been lost. Over the years, the Ming Dynasty's military workshop has been collecting materials to recreate the colorful cloud-piercing arrows for Chen Zhihua, but to this day, it has only created five pieces.
Of course, Chen Zhihua had very few opportunities to use these five cloud-piercing arrows. Generally speaking, he used only ordinary arrows. Although it was ordinary, compared to the arrows used by other soldiers, it was already very unusual. The cloud-piercing bow was too powerful. The ordinary arrow buttons were pulled open and shot out before they could fly far. The force contained in it had already twisted the arrow into a twist. So in Chen Zhihua's view, ordinary arrows were already extremely special for ordinary people.
The Thunder Army advanced step by step with the casualties, constantly cleaning up obstacles along the way. If it were normal, they would not have adopted this tactic that was the most unprofitable for the cavalry. But today, they used this seemingly stupid tactic, because behind the miners' camp and the Giant Wood camp was the Ming Dynasty's logistics supplies camp, and in the huge warehouses, there were tens of thousands of Ming troops on the front line. If they killed him, the Ming army would be unable to continue.
Stepping on his companion's body, covered with the plasma sprayed by his companion, Thunder Cavalry approached the military formation of the Giant Wood Camp step by step.
Chen Zhihua pulled the cloud-piercing bow. As soon as everyone heard the vibration of the bowstrings in their ears, the feather arrows had already flew into the attacking Qin army, and a huge flag fell down.
Above this distance, only Chen Zhihua's cloud-piercing bow can shoot into the enemy's array.
The military flag was where the soldiers' spiritual sustenance was placed on the battlefield. When the military flag fell, even the Thunder Army couldn't help but panic. The connection of the cloud-piercing bow sounded, and more than ten large Qin army flags broke and fell down one by one.
Above the positions of the Giant Wood Camp, bursts of cheers came.
Chen Zhihua smiled and shook his hand. Even though he practiced the blue sea tide, it was still too far from the two brothers, Mo Luo and Luo Yishui. If he continued to ejaculate, he would inevitably strain his arm.
Time passed every minute and second. After paying a huge price, the Thunder Army finally got together with the opponent they faced. Obviously, after a brief temptation, they focused on the breakthrough on the Giant Wood Camp, and the center of gravity of the battle began to slowly shift towards the Giant Wood Camp. A strange scene appeared opposite the miner camp, and the heavy infantry actually forced the Thunder Army to retreat.
"Your Majesty, the Thunder Army is playing tricks. They want to pull out the miner's camp. As long as the miner's camp chases out, there will be a gap between them and the Giant Woods camp. The Thunder Army must have wanted to break through. They run, but the miner's camp cannot catch up." Xu Sanmei, who was standing beside Qin Feng watching the battle, looked at Qin Feng with some nervousness.
"Well, you have a lot of vision!" Qin Feng glanced at the female general with admiration, "You can actually see the Qin people's plan. You are right. They prepared this way. Although the miner's camp is strong, it will not be able to let the Thunder Army retreat within such a little time."
"Then your Majesty, won't you give General Lu a reminder?" Xu Sanmei said aiqi.
Qin Feng looked at Xu Sanmei with some amusement, "Well, I think Yang Zhi often talks to you about General Lu Feng?"
Xu Sanmei said a word, and immediately didn't know how to answer.
"I guess he wouldn't have anything good to say when he talks to you about General Lu Feng, right?" Qin Feng said with a smile.
Xu Sanmei blushed and said, "The general just said that General Lu Feng is a muscle lump. He has grown flesh but not his brain after all these years."
Qin Feng laughed: "I guess this kid would say this, tell you, Yang Zhi played a duel with Lu Feng back then, ha, Yang Zhi, who had read a lot of military books, was killed by Lu Feng without leaving any armor. How revenge does this kid hold? After so many years, he still wants to slander Lu Feng from time to time."
Xu Sanmei looked at Qin Feng with a tongue. Yang Zhi was the object of his admiration. She had always believed in what Yang Zhi said. Now she heard another version from His Majesty.
Of course, it was not that she did not worship Qin Feng, but in her heart, Qin Feng was too far away from him, just like a god in the sky, and Yang Zhi was much closer to her.
"So, you don't need to worry about Lu Feng, he knows where the bottom line is!" Qin Feng said relaxedly.
Xu Sanmei looked at the battlefield. After a moment, the pace of the heavy infantry of the miners' battalion stopped, but their position at this time made the Thunder Army extremely embarrassed. It was really a dilemma. It was a dilemma to launch a fierce attack on the miners' battalion again, but they were cavalry and it was easy to slow down. It was not that simple to raise the speed again, because there was not enough space.
