The Qin Army's arrow formation is unparalleled in the world. In the competition for hegemony among other countries, it is what other countries fear, let alone these strong men who have never been on the battlefield.
As the commander-in-chief, Pan Jin was naturally completely protected. After the arrow array passed, he pointed at the sword in his hand and roared: "Charge--"
However, the Qin Army's arrow array wreaked havoc and took away so many lives in an instant. The horror of the war had already frightened these young men to death, and there was no one left to obey his command.
Without any military literacy or military discipline, the young men who survived had panic in their eyes. No one rushed forward, but kept retreating.
"Huh!?" Pan Jin was furious when he saw this. He pulled the reins, rode his horse forward, swung his sword, chopped off a head, and shouted angrily: "Come on me! If anyone is afraid of the enemy, he will not advance. Military justice!"
But how can Qingzhuang know anything about military law?
Under his fierce shout, people screamed again, and the front row retreated even more panicked.
The front retreated, and the situation behind them was unknown, and the scene suddenly became commotion.
On the Qin army's side, in order to save arrows and attack Wudu, after a round of arrow formation, Su Yi shouted loudly: "Goldman Sachs!"
"Lead the cavalry and attack the left wing!"
"Zhang Dashan's right wing takes a detour!"
"No!" The two of them clasped their fists and pulled the reins in two directions.
Not long after, a deafening sound sounded, and thousands of horses began to gallop.
The command flag waved again: "All troops attack -"
"ha!"
After drinking together, rows of long halberds were instantly raised, and the soldiers of the Qin army began to step forward.
The heavy vertical shields were connected horizontally.
Neat marching steps.
A thorn-like halberd.
This is so shocking!
Although Pan Jin was still shouting orders, those strong men were still retreating involuntarily.
When fighting, we fight for morale.
This is a crushing attack with absolute momentum, and there is no comparison at all.
Not to mention that there are only 200,000 strong men, even 300,000 or 500,000, it is impossible to defeat the 100,000 battle-hardened regular army.
"Run! Run quickly——"
In panic, someone screamed, and then a chain reaction was triggered. The young man in the front row was so frightened that he lost his mind. One can imagine how loud it was.
Instead of turning around and retreating, the situation ended in a rush!
But with 200,000 troops, the battle line was too big. The people behind them were scattered by their own people before they could react. I don’t know how many people fell to the ground and were trampled to death.
In the chaos, Pan Jin was still shouting: "Don't panic! Don't panic -"
But there is no way this situation can be undone.
The two sides haven't really fought yet, and they are already on the verge of fleeing.
In the chaos, the Qin army had arrived, and their halberds stabbed down, killing a row of lives in an instant.
The miserable howl sounded again, and the blood spattered. The strong man ran faster, and some people couldn't escape. They raised their swords high, but in front of them were heavy shields. Before he could cut his sword, he was hooked by the halberd. His ankle was instantly pulled into the shield formation, letting out a miserable howl.
This is a total massacre.
In an instant, the Qin army had advanced dozens of steps, and within these dozens of steps, corpses fell to the ground.
Pan Jin was at the front of the team. He thought that with the number of people, he could stop the Qin army, but he was too naive. At this moment, he was already overwhelmed by the Qin army.
The rabble was defeated in one blow.
Su Yi also prepared cavalry on the left and right, preparing to sweep the battlefield, but there was no need for it.
Under the massive chaos, 200,000 young men were running and dying, and their blood had already stained the earth red.
Seeing this situation, a general of the Qin army couldn't help but said: "Commander Su, these people have no resistance at all. Most of them have thrown away their weapons and behaved like birds and beasts. At this point in the war, the general will think that these people They are all common people who were brought here by force. Now that they have been defeated, there is no need to pursue them anymore."
"Nonsense!" Unexpectedly, Su Yi shouted coldly: "These people are all the young and strong men of the Wu Kingdom. If they disperse like this, they will definitely be gathered by the King of Wu. Then it will be troublesome again! They will be destroyed in one battle. Only by doing this can we avoid future troubles forever.”
"But Su Shuai..."
The general wanted to persuade him again.
But Su Yi interrupted him coldly: "This is war! There are no immortals on the battlefield! Let alone the enemy!"
Under his cold-blooded military orders, the Qin army continued to pursue and kill, and this pursuit lasted for dozens of miles. At the end of the chase, the Qin cavalry gathered from the left and right and surrounded all the remaining young men in a huge area. in the open space.
Looking at the black armor and red tassels and the overwhelming iron cavalry in all directions, all the young men seemed at a loss. They looked left and right, and the panic in their eyes became more intense.
At this time, many people's weapons were long gone. Those who still had weapons in their hands hurriedly threw them away. Then, all of them kneeled on the ground in unison.
"Surrender, we surrender..."
"Please general, please let us go..."
There were so many cries and people kowtowing. As far as I could see, there were countless civilians kneeling on the ground.
"woo woo woo woo……"
There were also many children, who were only thirteen or fourteen years old, raising their hands to wipe away their tears.
Yes, the King of Wu's forced conscription order was to capture all males over the age of thirteen.
This is just the first batch. If this continues, only the old, the weak, women and children will be left in every household in Wudi.
The officers and soldiers of the Qin army had also stopped moving long ago.
Looking at these crying half-grown children, many generals closed their eyes deeply.
At this time, Su Yi had already arrived on horseback. After scanning around, he said calmly: "Send away all the children under the age of sixteen and let them go home."
"No!" A general immediately accepted the order.
He only said to let the children go home, but what about the other young adults? However, before he could give the next order, Lu Fan, a civilian officer in the army, hurriedly said: "Commander Su, these people are civilians. They were forced to go to the battlefield. They are not enough to form an army. Now they have been defeated. When Dismissed on the spot.”
Su Yi glanced at him.
Lu Fan continued: "Our land in the Central Plains has been war-torn for more than two hundred years, and the number of young people has declined sharply. If these people die under the butcher's knife today, every household in Wudi will cry, the population will wither, and production will wither. Farming is in ruins and the crops are in ruins!"
"I only care about military affairs and not politics." Su Yi said coldly.
"Su Shuai!" Lu Fan was so anxious that he even straightened his face: "If Su Shuai insists, I will give you a copy before the king!"
Hearing this, all the surrounding generals were startled. Some of them moved their lips, wanting to say something, but they didn't dare.
Su Yi had a lot of thoughts. His cold-bloodedness was on the battlefield, and he was not a truly heartless person. Otherwise, he would not have had his child sent away first.
There is an intention to massacre, because I am worried that these young men will gather again in the future.
After thinking for a while, he looked at Lu Fan and said quietly: "Master Lu, if these people cause trouble in the future, I will behead you in public."
"If this is the case, I will commit suicide to apologize." Lu Fan said seriously.
