I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 155
The Zhi clan's troops who received the order did not hesitate, and immediately advanced, and they would not charge until they were within a hundred meters of the enemy.

This is a natural option. If you are really five or six hundred meters away from the enemy, you will be in a charging posture.

Hearing the order of "the whole army to attack", the officer of Wei's troops looked towards the direction of the nest car, waiting for the flag over there to signal the march.

From here, we can also see the characteristics of the Spring and Autumn Period. The soldiers of each family only obeyed the orders of the family, and it was difficult for a battlefield commander to cross.

However, Wei Ju was completely dumbfounded at this moment.

Why did Gong Zilu come here in a rage, and then yelled at Zhiyao before the battle?
Wei Ju also couldn't understand why Zhiyao shot and killed Gong Zilu, and gave the order for the whole army to attack.

"Your Majesty!" Uncle Jian waited for a few breaths, and seeing Wei Ju still in a daze, he said urgently, "Don't delay!"

As the commander-in-chief of the whole army, Zhiyao has already charged, and at the same time, all Zhishi's troops are advancing. As Zhiyao's subordinate and Zhishi's ally, Wei Wei has not moved. Not only is he disobedient, but he will also lose his responsibility as an ally.

Wei Ju came back to his senses, and said hoarsely, "Attack!"

The banner issued an order, and Wei's troops, who were about [-] breaths slower, could be considered to have advanced.

At this moment, Wei Ju has too much confusion, the only thing he knows is that this is the best chance to defeat the enemy.

"What did Zhiyao do to anger your son?" Wei Ju was still thinking when he got out of the car.

On the side of the coalition forces, seeing that Gong Zilu was shot down without any resistance at all, to be honest, he didn't feel that Zhiyao was cheating or anything.

The original thing, from the perspective of the coalition forces, was that Gong Zilu was the first to initiate the invitation to be a teacher, and he was fair and just. It is not unfair to say who wins and who loses, and some are just inferior to others.However, there has never been any controversy about being killed when one's skills were inferior to others.

So, Zhiyao shot and killed Gongzilu, or Gongzilu killed Zhiyao, is there anything strange about it?
It's just that those who should be confused are still confused, and then they see the Jin army attacking, and they are at a loss!
Dou Huai's face was flustered, he knew in his heart that he could be confused, but the army must not be chaotic, and he kept repeating: "Leave the formation, form the formation!"

No matter how loud a person's voice is, it is limited after all, and Dou Huai is only a soldier who can try to stabilize the range of his voice.

Waiting for Dou Huai to find out that it was useless, Xin Yiheng ordered: "Fight, fight!"

Military orders that are too complicated cannot be issued by trumpets or flags, but military orders such as advance are sufficient.

The Chu army moved, but after they moved, they lost their coordination. Some people ran wildly at the beginning, and more people just moved forward slowly.

When Liu Yang saw the Chu army advancing, he suddenly showed a "sunshine dog" expression.

Look at the Jin army on the opposite side. Although it is advancing at a high speed, the formation has no tendency to mess up at all.

Look at the Chu army who was ordered to advance, the formation itself is not neat, let alone the order of the formation after the advance.

Liu Yang has been a native of Jin for most of his life, how could he not know enough about the Jin army, and at the same time he is no stranger to what the Chu army looks like.

What is the situation now?The commander-in-chief of the Chu army was shot down in front of the formation. For the Chu army, not only lost the commander, but also suffered a blow to the morale of the army.

Of course, not every Chu soldier fell into panic because of the death of Gong Zilu, and some Chu soldiers entered a state of grief and anger.

So, after the Chu army started to advance, they did not move forward more than a hundred meters, and the originally unscrupulous formation was completely messed up.

The two sides approached each other at a distance of about a hundred steps. The Jin army shot a lot of arrows, while the Chu army only shot a few arrows.

Arrows from the two armies fell, and most of the arrows were actually shot in the air. The arrows that hit people may not be able to kill the target on the spot.

For example, Zhishi soldiers wearing paper armor, the arrows hit the armor, and the arrow did not penetrate the armor, so they could continue to charge with arrows stuck in their bodies.

On the side of the Chu army, a considerable number of people wearing wooden armor, rattan armor or leather armor fell down without being hit by an arrow.

Arrows, right?As long as it doesn't hit a vital point, such as the head, neck, or heart, it is actually causing injuries. The arrow in the torso is likely to lose too much blood and be fatal when the wound is treated later. The arrow in the limbs is easier to deal with if it does not hit the artery.

Zhi's crossbowmen shot evil gold arrowheads, and because of cleaning up the inventory, many of the arrowheads were actually rusty.

Rusty gold?As long as it hits and breaks the skin, there will be a lot of trouble afterwards, and the wound will inevitably become inflamed and pus.

In this age when medical skills have not been fully developed, there is no good treatment for illnesses, and there is no disinfection in dealing with trauma.

Therefore, even if the soldiers of the Chu army who were hit by the evil gold arrowheads were not killed today, their successors would most likely be tortured by various inflammations.

In fact, Zhiyao is still not cruel enough, otherwise soaking in feces and urine before using it is directly engaging in the original version of bacterial warfare.

On Zhi's side, because of the deployment of the array, the sword-shield soldiers ran at the forefront. When they were about 50 meters away from the enemy, the officer repeatedly issued instructions. The sword-shield soldiers in front stopped, and the sword-shield soldiers behind them stopped. Keep up, and then start to organize the formation.

One sword and shield soldier after another stood at a distance of about [-] centimeters from each other. They blocked the shields in front, and the long-handled machetes were stuck on the ground at the bottom and then leaned forward.

The sword and shield soldiers formed an army formation in an extremely fast time, which only shows that the results of usual training have been reflected.

Afterwards, the spearmen followed. They stood in the back row of the sword and shield soldiers, and then stabbed their spears through the gap between the sword and shield soldiers, and a forest of spears appeared in a moment.

The rest of the troops that followed up included Sword and Shield Soldiers, Spear and Spear Soldiers, Spear Soldiers and Spear and Ax Soldiers; Among them, the Sword and Shield Soldiers, Spear and Spear Soldiers, in addition to increasing the thickness of the army array, moved towards the two wings. Extend it; it is not easy for a heavy armored unit like spearmen and axemen to run fast, otherwise they should actually be at the forefront, and they are currently forming an independent column.

Archers?Or add crossbowmen?Of course Zhishi has these two types of arms, but most of the time, other types of arms are making temporary guest appearances, and the number of professional crossbowmen is relatively small.

When the various arms formed an army formation, the number of arrows shot by Zhi's side was greatly reduced, until they stopped shooting arrows completely.

The Chu army did not stop shooting arrows. The arrows they shot landed in the formation of Zhi's troops, which did not make the formation of Zhi's troops chaotic at all.

That's when the arrows fall, some are blocked by the shield, and some hits, regardless of whether they break the defense or not, if there is a robe falling around, the vacant space will be filled immediately.

Because the Zhi family has been popularizing paper armor, in fact, the Chu army's arrows did not cause a large death rate to the Zhi family.

The fact is also the same, as long as the armor rate increases, the results that archers can achieve will inevitably decrease.

For example, in some film and television works, everyone is obviously wearing armor, or the style of metal armor, and a large area is covered by the rain of arrows, or the arrow shoots on the armor but kills it with one blow. It's making trouble!
What will be the real situation?People in armor were shot so that their armor was full of arrows and they could still fight endlessly, because they could be injured but not immediately fatal, and they could persist until the blood loss was severe before they fell.

Especially for some generals, their armor is more sophisticated, unless the arrows shot did not hit the armor, otherwise it is a problem whether they can penetrate the armor if they hit, so there are many generals who are shot like hedgehogs , They can also bravely kill the enemy in a row.

What can really cause chaos to Zhi's army is the Chu army's chariots charging up. Some of the Chu army's chariots were targeted by arrow rain in the middle of the charge. Did the crew members die? Unable to withstand the rain of arrows, he ran and died.

Zhiyao and other chariot troops, as the commander, Zhiyao is already in the core position of the army formation, and the rest of the chariot troops are in a state of swimming and waiting on the left and right sides of the rear.

While Zhishi's troops were forming the formation, fast-running Chu soldiers had already come up. If they continued to charge, they would bump into Zhishi's formation, and would either be pierced by spears or slashed to death by sword and shield soldiers.

A considerable number of Chu soldiers rushed to deliver the heads too quickly, giving enough warning to the Chu soldiers behind, and made some Chu soldiers who were running fast stop in place. And continue to rush forward.

The collision between the enemy and us took place, and a large number of Chu soldiers fell in front of Zhi's army.

Liu Yang, who was hesitating whether to let Fan's troops advance, was shocked.

"Of course the Chu army's morale is shaken, but when did the Zhi family become so capable?" Liu Yang didn't know that the Zhi family had something to train new troops.

Now, the Fan family is facing a difficult choice. Moving forward may not be effective, and it may be a waste of time; if they don't join the offensive, they may be able to reduce losses at the moment, but they will have to face the wrath of Chu State next.

When Liu Yang wanted to order the troops to attack, he heard roars coming from the front.

"attack!"

"attack!"

"attack!"

"drive!!!"

This is when Zhiyao saw the sharp momentum of the Chu army being knocked out, and at the same time the Wei's troops in the rear followed up and ordered the troops to continue to advance.

It can be seen that there is already a wall of corpses in front of Zhi's army, and they need to step on the corpses of Chu soldiers to move forward.

At the same time, Zhi's chariots on the left and right wings rushed in from the half of the Chu army after cruising.

Seeing that Liu Yang, who had absolutely no power to recover, he swallowed back the attack order he was about to issue, and looked at Dou Huai.

Not to mention Dou Huai's military quality, he is definitely not an ignorant person, how can he not see that this battle is doomed to fail?
but!

but!

but!

First, Gong Zilu was shot down when he was leading the division, and then the Chu army couldn't beat the Jin army at all. What can Dou Huai do?
The state of Chu has an old tradition of killing generals when defeated troops, the dead Gong Zilu cannot be killed again, only Dou Huai bears the responsibility for the defeat.

No matter what, Dou Huai knew he was doomed, and waved his sword with a distorted face, shouting: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Liu Yang who saw that scene was completely upset!
