Chapter 446

"Your Highness, the gate has been completely controlled by us, and the Huns have nothing to do against Habayashi Guard's shield formation!"

A herald Sima ran to the top of the city and reported to Zhao Kun excitedly.

Zhao Kun smiled slightly after hearing his report.

Although he was in charge of the Forbidden Army for a short time, the transformation of the Forbidden Army has never stopped, especially after returning to Xianyang, he has turned the Forbidden Army into an army of steel.

After all, it was to defend the imperial palace and guard the forbidden army of the first emperor. If compared with the general army, it would be too cheap.

At present, the most powerful cavalry in the Qin army is the thunder cavalry, who is best at penetrating, and the surprise attack is the ghost face cavalry.

The least fear of death is being trapped in the camp.

The special operations team was already independent from the Qin army and belonged to the category of special forces, not suitable for Habayashi Guard.

Habayashi Guard, as the imperial army, the most important thing is not combat power, but resistance to beating.

If you want to resist wrinkles, you must have rough skin and thick flesh.

Then, the first thing Zhao Kun thought of was armor and shields.

Because the public loser was kicked out by the public loser, so he was in charge of the military factory, and Mo Qin, who was attached to Qin, was very upset.

One by one scrambles to enter the military factory, making the arms race in the military factory happen frequently.

In this way, high-tech armaments emerge in endlessly.

Coupled with Zhao Kun's concept of modern ordnance, the development of the military factory is booming.

These armors and shields are the latest crystallization of the military factory: cold forging armor, fire steel shield.

Historically, cold forging armor originated from the Qiang people.

They use a unique cold section technology to beat thick pieces of diamonds with a hammer to one-third of the thickness.

The manpower consumed in this can be imagined.

And its powerful defense is also incredible: if you go fifty steps, you can't get in with a strong crossbow.

Military factories naturally do not consume manpower to forge, but use waterwheels to drive equipment to forge.

The consumption of manpower is saved, and the productivity is naturally improved.

As for the fire steel shield, it is also forged from steel, and its defensive power is not bad.

Although Habayashi Guard's attack power is not strong, but the defense power is definitely the top of the Qin army.

Ordinary swords can't do effective damage to shields and armor at all.

Unless the Xiongnu used a bed crossbow to attack, don't try to break through the shield array with ordinary weapons.

After pondering for a while, Zhao Kun smiled and ordered: "Good job, let the Habayashi guards continue to guard the gate, and no Huns are allowed to step into the corridor!"

"promise!"

The messenger Sima heard the words and took the order to go.

Zhao Kun continued to stay on the city wall and commanded [-] elite Liaodong troops to shoot outside the city.

It was another wave of shotgun shots. After the first row finished shooting, they retreated to the last row, the second row fired, and the third row got ready.

Repeatedly and endlessly, the Hun warriors outside the city did not have a chance to breathe.

They began to go mad, and ran desperately towards the city wall.

Then, after a few breaths, they were shot and killed by muskets.

This kind of scene reminded Zhao Kun of the scene where the Eight-Nation Allied Forces treated the invited troops in history.

The progress of the times has created a gap in weapons. How to fight against hot weapons with cold weapons.

After this war is over, I believe that many people will pay attention to the development of thermal weapons.

However, the Great Qin Empire is always at the forefront of the times and is invincible.

Sobbing.

Zhao Kun saw those Hun warriors who hadn't rushed under the city wall being shot and killed mercilessly by muskets.

The Xiongnu warriors wearing animal skin shields, enduring the impact of shotguns hitting the shields, frantically ran down the city wall.

Unfortunately, the ladder was pushed down by Qin Jun early on.

Although it is not difficult to lift the ladder, the most difficult thing is how to face the Qin army on the city wall after rushing up the city wall.

The muskets on the city wall were still firing shotguns.

The Hun warriors were thrown to the ground by the flying shotguns in the thick smoke.

The comrades beside them couldn't see them clearly at all, even if they didn't die immediately, they still couldn't escape being trampled to death by their comrades.

Finally, the Hun warriors sent by Modu Shanyu collapsed.

Those Xiongnu warriors who couldn't bear the Qin army's shotgun began to choose to withdraw from the battlefield.

However, now it is not something they can retreat if they want to.

Because the Huns did not protect their mouths and noses, they inhaled a lot of toxic smoke, and began to have adverse reactions.

Especially those Hun warriors ran all the way with shotguns, and even inhaled a lot of poisonous gas.

At first, they didn't feel anything special because of the adrenaline rush.

but.

When the morale drops and the secretion of adrenaline decreases, all kinds of adverse reactions come up immediately.

"Cough, cough, cough."

Countless coughing sounds came from under the city wall.

Seeing this, Zhao Kun on the city wall sneered.

He knew that the Huns' offensive was over.

"The two armies rotate!"

Following Zhao Kun's loud roar, Qin Jun, who was resting in the pass, immediately took up his weapon, covered his mouth and nose with a wet handkerchief, and ran to the top of the city.

The [-] Liaodong elite who retreated were finally able to wash the handkerchiefs that covered their mouths and noses.

I saw that the clear water in the tub instantly became cloudy.

Immediately afterwards, they felt a burning sensation in their throats. Fortunately, they replenished water immediately, which greatly relieved the discomfort in their throats.

Those who are well-prepared and have a sore throat, let alone the Hun warriors with weaker defenses.

Zhao Kun on the city wall silently listened to the coughing sound coming from below the city, and looked at the thick smoke with a sneer, as if he wanted to see Maodun through the thick smoke.

And this time.

All the Hun warriors who were able to withdraw had already begun to retreat, and the rest were the Hun warriors who were so smoked that they couldn't even move.

You don't even need to think about their fate, that is to be suffocated to death by poisonous smoke.

Seeing the retreat of the Huns warriors in front, Mao Dun was furious immediately, and shouted angrily: "The warriors of my great Huns cannot retreat, go up, go up to me!"

Mao Dun fell into a state of rage, and the retreating Hun warriors were in a state of dismay, but did not return to the battlefield.

The surrounding Xiongnu leaders and chiefs finally spoke: "Calm down your anger! You guys have been fighting for hours, it's time to rest!"

After the words fell, Mao Dun hadn't opened his mouth yet, heart-piercing screams came suddenly.

I saw those Hun warriors who had retreated screaming and scratching their own throats.

After a while, he gradually lost his breath in the struggle.

Seeing this, Da Shanyu Maodun was shocked, and suddenly turned his eyes to the new translator who had contributed this trick.

hum!
The new translator was struck by lightning, his head was buzzing, he felt that something was wrong, and immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "The big one is for forgiveness, the big one is for forgiveness!"

"This is not the villain's fault. The villain's strategy has clearly obscured the Qin army's sight, and won the opportunity for the army to break through the pass!"

"In the end, you can't blame the villains for not being able to conquer the pass of the Qin army in the end! This is because the Huns warriors lost to the Qin army."

"puff--!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Mao Dun raised his knife and cut off his head.

Seeing this, the surrounding Hun leaders and chiefs were not only not nervous, but relieved.

Da Shanyu beheaded the translator from the Central Plains who offered his advice, indicating that it was not the Xiongnu warriors who couldn't do it, but the strategy offered by the translator from the Central Plains.

In this way, there is nothing wrong with them.

Anyway, there are many Central Plains people in the army, so just find another translator.

At the same time that Mao Dun was sharpening the new translation.

Zhao Kun, who was on the top of the city, also went down to the pass, slowly took off the two layers of towels on his face, and washed them.

Immediately afterwards, he moistened his throat with water and ordered the doctors accompanying the army to check the conditions of the soldiers of the Qin army.

Not long after, Zhao Kun came to the gate of the city and ordered engineers to repair the pass gate and take advantage of the situation to strengthen the gate.

The Xiongnu's siege ended in a complete victory for the Qin army.

The Xiongnu adopted thick smoke tactics, which at first surprised them and effectively weakened the mighty Qin crossbow.

But Zhao Kun quickly adjusted his tactics and directly asked [-] Liaodong elites to carry muskets on top.

Facing the all-round dimensionality reduction attack of muskets, countless Huns were shot and killed by shotguns.

The Huns again failed to ascend the city, although they broke a gate of the pass with a battering ram.

However, Zhao Kun directly sent the Habayashi guards who escorted Yingzheng into Yunzhong County, causing the Huns to fail again.

In the end, the morale of the Huns collapsed, and because they inhaled a lot of smoke, their cleverness was misunderstood by their cleverness, resulting in countless non-combat attrition of Huns.

The massive offensive had to end hastily.

After several consecutive failures in attacking the Qin army's pass, Maodun's mentality changed drastically.

Some different voices sprouted secretly, and his temper became more and more irritable.

Within a few days, he tortured and killed more than a dozen female slaves in a row, making the Hun warriors around him terrified.

The two sides temporarily fell into a strategic confrontation, and Zhao Kun did not continue to provoke Maodun.

For a while, both sides were taking the time to rest and prepare for the next big battle.

Just as the front line of Yunzhong County seized the time to rest, the Great Wall Pass of Jiuyuan County ushered in a group of familiar visitors.

"Uncle Hei Fu, look quickly!"

Looking at the hundreds of cavalry in the distance, the young Qin Jun immediately became nervous.

Hearing the words, the old Qin Jun named Hei Fu quickly got up from behind the battlements, squinting his eyes and looking in the direction pointed by the young Qin Jun.

When a black flag of the Qin army came into Heifu's eyes, his pupils shrank slightly, and he shouted at the young Qin army without thinking.

"Hurry up and report to the Jiuyuan guard!"

"okay!"

The young Qin Jun reacted, and immediately ran towards the pass.

After hearing the news, the guard of Jiuyuan brought people to the city wall non-stop, and nervously watched the hundreds of horsemen rushing outside the city.

"Why, why are there only a few hundred riders?"

The guard of Jiuyuan looked at the cavalrymen running towards him, and his heart skipped a beat, a bad premonition arose spontaneously.

Seeing this, Qin Jun's face turned ugly for a moment.

Hei Fu, on the other hand, seemed to have noticed something, shook his head slightly, and then leaned out to look at the cavalry in the distance, and said, "Old man, I don't think their aura is like a sign of a big defeat!"

"Well, it may be the first soldier to repay the victory!"

Hearing Heifu's words, General Jiuyuan echoed and calmed down.

The officers and soldiers of the Qin army also breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that things were as Heifu said.

Soon, hundreds of cavalry approached the pass.

The soldiers of the Qin army guarding the pass took another deep breath, waiting for them to speak.

Outside the pass, Wang Li with a tired face patted his cheek, got up his spirits, looked up at the defenders on the pass, and shouted loudly: "I, Wang Li, are back!"

After saying that, Wang Li turned his head and took down the white wolf flag on his waist. He grinned and said, "Our army smashed the royal court of Youxian King and captured more than [-] men, women and livestock. The Xiongnu Youxian King's court was burned by our army!"

Hearing Wang Li's words, the soldiers of the Qin army on the pass were stunned for a moment, and then burst into cheers.

Looking at the white wolf flag in Wang Li's hand, the Jiuyuan guard immediately took a deep breath, waved his hand and said, "Clean up, and open the door to welcome General Wang Li's triumphant return!"

"Roar~~~"

The soldiers of the Qin army shouted in unison, and everyone's face was filled with excitement.

After Wang Li entered the pass, he left most of his soldiers in the pass to rest and meet the large troops commanded by Wang Yue and Wang Yan.

After replenishing his supplies, he headed straight for Yunzhong County with more than a dozen confidants.

The front line of Yunzhong County.

Zhao Kun is observing the Huns army on the city wall.

Suddenly, a soldier quickly ran to Zhao Kun's side, cupped his hands and said, "His Royal Highness, General Wang Li has arrived!"

Hearing this, Zhao Kun was stunned for a moment, and then rushed into the pass quickly holding his saber.

"Wang Li—!"

Zhao Kun shouted while running, and the voice immediately reached Wang Li who was resting on the ground.

"Son!"

Wang Li, who was exhausted, was shocked when he heard Zhao Kun's shout. He quickly got up, washed his face with cold water, and got up to look for Zhao Kun.

Soon, everyone met in front of the county capital.

"The last general will see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

When the surrounding soldiers saw Zhao Kun, they saluted immediately.

However, Zhao Kun only had Wang Li in his eyes, so he rushed to Wang Li and gave him a bear hug: "It's really time for you to come!"

"Fortunately, the last general will not be disgraced!"

Feeling Zhao Kun's embrace, Wang Xin's heart warmed, and he immediately took out the white wolf flag, showing off his achievements with a smile: "Young master, this attack on the various tribes of the Huns has yielded a lot of rewards. Captured his uncle Azar!"

"In addition, there are more than [-] captive livestock!"

"This is the White Wolf Banner of the Right Wise King of the Huns, and I presented it to His Highness the Crown Prince on behalf of the soldiers!"

Zhao Kun let go of Wang Li, glanced at the white wolf flag in Wang Li's hand, immediately laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Good job!"

"hey-hey."

Wang Li smiled.

Zhao Kun sized him up, nodded in satisfaction, then frowned as if remembering something, and asked, "How about the casualties of our army?"

"Lei Qi is wearing heavy armor, waiting for you to be no match!"

Wang Li chuckled lightly and said, "Those Hun cavalry were vulnerable in front of the Lei cavalry, my [-] soldiers only had hundreds of minor injuries, and no one was seriously injured."

Speaking of this, he paused and sighed again: "However, there are dozens of soldiers lost in the grassland, and I have sent people to search for them on the way back!"

"It's okay! It's normal to get lost in the vast grassland, don't worry about it!"

Zhao Kun smiled and patted Wang Li's shoulder.

Immediately, Wang Li looked tired again.

Zhao Kun realized in an instant that this guy should have come to report the military situation non-stop.

"Okay, you can go down and rest, and I will clean up your dust later, and I have to tell my father the good news!"

Zhao Kun said something casually.

When Wang Li learned that he was going to find Ying Zheng, he didn't dare to talk to him, so he immediately bowed his hands and withdrew.

Watching Wang Li go away, Zhao Kun did not set off to find Ying Zheng, but picked up the white wolf flag on his finger and pondered it carefully.

As long as he hangs the white wolf flag, the leaders and chiefs of the various ministries of Modun, including Modun himself, will know what happened.

At that time, they will definitely be irritated, and it is very likely to attract their crazy attacks.

And Zhao Kun didn't want to procrastinate any longer, and prepared to fight the next battle as the last battle to destroy the Huns.

To this end, he will start to deploy troops and generals to fight a defensive counterattack.

"Come here, quickly inform Li Xin and Han Xin, and let them support Yunzhong County without losing their own battle situation!"

"The last will obey!"

When the messenger Sima heard the words, he immediately understood, took the command talisman from Zhao Kun, and immediately ran out of the city.
