Chapter 206 Is Qin Jun cheating?

The Xiongnu cavalry were stunned for a moment, and so was Maodun.

Charge, get shot at, chase, but never get close. How should this battle be fought?
In the second battle, the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry killed nearly three thousand Hun cavalry, including one thousand knights equipped with shields.

After two rounds of arrow rain, all the Snow Dragon Knights put away their bows and crossbows in unison and turned around and galloped away without hesitation.

This kind of strict discipline and execution is unparalleled in the world!

It was this self-control that enabled them to resist the temptation to expand their victory and retreat resolutely even though they had already inflicted heavy damage on three or four thousand enemy cavalry.

They were as swift as the wind, and even with their fine horses the Huns could not catch up with them and could only watch them from afar.

At this moment, both the Huns and Maodun were shocked.

How could the Qin army be so decisive?
What kind of archery is that?
Is it possible that besides a strong bow, there is also a chain of arrows that is even better?
And it can be used twice in a row?
What powerful archery!

What a powerful general!

Even if three thousand brave warriors were sacrificed, they could still resolutely turn their horses around in the face of imminent victory!

Sure enough, there was an expert in the Qin army who saw through at a glance that their cavalry units were mainly engaged in close combat. Once they got close to the enemy, it would be difficult for them to win even if their numbers were equal!

Moreover, the opponent's speed is amazing, their actions are consistent and extremely fast!
The three thousand cavalrymen acted as one. At the command, they turned around and fled in unison without any interference!

This is undoubtedly a strong enemy! Fortunately, they only have 3,000 people.

After this confrontation, he had figured out the enemy's strength, and with the 60,000 troops he led, he was able to surround and destroy them.

Otherwise, relying solely on these 3,000 cavalrymen to cooperate with the main force of the Qin army would become a major problem in attacking the Qin army and capturing Xianyang.

Thinking of this, Maodun Chanyu no longer hesitated and decisively ordered: "All troops attack!"

"Five thousand mounted shield soldiers as the vanguard, twenty thousand long sword soldiers as the front line, and thirty thousand mounted archers as the two wings to encircle the enemy. We must not let a single enemy escape!"

"promise!"

Despite Maodun's extraordinary wisdom, he eventually fell into the trap.

I have to admit that the first emperor's series of arrangements were indeed brilliant. They were all strategies and enticement!

If it were in the past, the First Emperor might not have had so many strategies and schemes.

This is what he learned from the Thirteenth Young Master's chain of tricks after he came out of seclusion!

If you don't see the rabbit, don't let the eagle fly!
When the First Emperor saw the entire 60,000-strong army on the opposite side attacking and chasing them, a smile flashed across his lips.

Humph, you finally can’t hold it back anymore?

This time, let Maodun Chanyu learn a lesson.

"Order! Use bows first, then crossbows. Pull the bows when the enemy cavalry is 800 meters away, switch to crossbows at 500 meters, and shoot ten arrows in a row within 300 meters to penetrate the enemy cavalry in front!"

“Here!”

With the full deployment of the grassland cavalry, the true identity of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry was revealed.

The midday sun was blazing, the steam was rising, and 60,000 cavalrymen were sweeping in, unstoppable.

The encircling troops on both sides galloped forward first, like a storm.

However, the First Emperor and others failed to see through this plan. They stood there in a daze, holding their positions, completely unaware that the crisis was approaching.

Another half a quarter of an hour later, when the enemy's 25,000 central cavalry came like a torrent, the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry tried to escape in panic.

However, at this moment, facing the sudden attacks from both sides and the acceleration of the Xiongnu cavalry in the center, the three thousand Snow Dragon Cavalry were instantly surrounded by 60,000 enemy troops.

It seemed that these three thousand brave warriors were about to be overwhelmed by the surging Hun cavalry, like lambs falling into the ocean.

The next moment, the Great Snow Dragon Riders decisively drew out their three thousand longbows and, regardless of everything, fired a volley of arrows at a distance of eight hundred steps!
boom!
The sound of the bowstring was like thunder.

Hundreds of Hun cavalrymen surrounded on three sides fell one after another.

boom!
The second volley brought down hundreds more.

boom!
The third volley resulted in the same loss. After three volleys, the Xiongnu cavalry on both sides lost one or two thousand men each, and there were also casualties in the center.

In this battle alone, three volleys from 800 meters away resulted in the death of nearly 5,000 Huns.

However, the Huns seemed to have received an order to fight to the death. Although their companions fell one after another, the remaining soldiers still rushed forward recklessly.

The Great Snow Dragon Riders saw this and their formation became thrown into chaos. The urge to flee and fight were intertwined, and cracks appeared in their command system.

Seeing this good opportunity, Maodun Chanyu was overjoyed!
He waved his hand and the entire army charged forward at the fastest speed.

Until the 25,000 cavalrymen of the central army approached within 500 meters of the Great Snow Dragon Cavalry.

boom! !

Zhuge Crossbow activated!

This time, all the arrows of the three thousand Snow Dragon Riders were aimed at the central army!
Ten consecutive shots, without missing a single one.

Starting from five hundred steps.

boom-!

boom-!

boom-!
The wooden shields exploded like pieces of paper, and the shield riders fell one by one, in an orderly and cruel manner.

When the first cavalry swordsman rushed to four hundred steps, all five thousand cavalry shieldmen had fallen.

When the first cavalryman wielding a broadsword stepped over the corpses of his comrades and faced the Great Snow Dragon Riders, he was greeted by the third, fourth, and tenth rounds of Zhuge Crossbow fire!
Without the obstruction of wooden shields, each Zhuge Crossbow could penetrate one person and still have enough power to penetrate another person!
The Snow Dragon Rider was not impatient and continued to pull the trigger in an orderly manner.

boom!
A row fell down, bang!

A row fell down, BAM! .
After the seventh round of firing, less than half of the 20,000 Hun cavalrymen who were charging head-on were left.

boom!
boom!
After two crossbow shots, only four thousand were left out of the eight thousand men.

The last 4,000 Hun cavalry felt the wind of death from all directions.

Everyone was horrified to find that dozens of their companions fell down one after another, and they seemed to be the lucky ones who escaped the net and survived by chance.

At this moment, any instructions were thrown out of the window.

The sparse team stared at the three thousand silver-armored soldiers in front of them, their minds were blank and fear filled their hearts.

In the last 200 meters, both the Xiongnu cavalry and their horses seemed to be stuck in an impasse that could not be broken.

Chanyu Maodun, who was in command with only a few thousand personal guards behind him, was completely stunned at this moment!

Not two bursts?

Ten times in a row?

Maybe more?!
Qin Jun, is this cheating? ! !
How to fight this? ! !
I actually fell into a trap!!!

The Hun cavalry on both sides, which had lost two thousand men each, were now hesitant and fearful.

When the Qin army raised Zhuge Crossbow for the tenth time, even without Maodun's order, the three Xiongnu forces reined in their horses at the same time and instinctively avoided the deadly threat.

In an instant, the 60,000 Huns were reduced to less than 40,000, and their fighting spirit was completely gone.

boom!
Their last bit of fear turned into crossbow arrows and shot out, and more than half of the 4,000 Hun cavalrymen who were facing them fell down.

At this point, the main force of the 25,000 Hun cavalry was reduced to less than 2,000. They were terrified and no longer able to move forward.

The strongest assault force of the Huns was almost destroyed!
"Pass the order, retreat ten miles and reorganize the army!"

Seeing that the tactical goal had been achieved, the First Emperor decisively ordered a retreat.

If the Huns came out in full force like a machine at this moment, the Great Snow Dragon Riders would probably be in a tough battle and losses would be inevitable.
