Da Qin: We just traveled through time and you proclaimed yourself emperor in Rome

Chapter 151 The first confrontation between Great Qin and the Maurya Dynasty

After marching at full speed for a month, the army appeared outside the Mauryan city of Kashubhi.

Wang Jian led the army and stood at the end of the horizon. Behind him were the endless old Qin people. Ten armies gathered together, a total of 200 million Qin soldiers.

Among them, there are millions of elite soldiers who have followed the First Emperor to unify the six countries and have extremely rich combat experience.

The remaining 100 million are logistics soldiers. However, with the increase in the national war system, their physique has changed greatly.

Except for the lack of combat experience, they are no different from veterans. On the way here, Wang Jian specially asked these people to lead the battle, and after training, they all looked good.

Wang Jian squinted his eyes and looked at the city in the distance, with a strange look in his eyes.

Rather than calling this a city, it would be better to call it a large village.

This city is very big. The city wall in front of it covers an area of ​​nearly a hundred miles. You can't see the end at a glance, but it is only about ten meters high, which makes it look a bit shabby.

Normally, the ancient city walls were so high, which was considered good, but now that the national war system has come, bringing with it the technology of later generations, including the advent of steel bars and cement, the city walls are still only this high, which is a bit unreasonable.

The lowest city wall in Da Qin is nearly 20 meters.

Wang Jian raised his hand and gestured to the side, signaling the people behind him not to act in a hurry.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully observed the distance.

There are many slaves standing there on the city wall, holding bricks and cement, building the wall. It can be inferred that the Maurya Dynasty did not know that they were coming, but the construction speed was simply slow.

Through the development speed of light industry, the approximate strength of a party can be inferred.

When Wang Jian understood everything clearly, he waved his hand gently and ordered his people to raise the battle flag and blow the horn of attack.

The people of Lao Qin walked very lightly, hiding their figures in the darkness, and approached the city wall.

It wasn't until he arrived at the city wall that the people on the city wall discovered his trace.

At this moment, slaves were busy on the walls of the Mauryan Dynasty. Someone inadvertently saw the black figure approaching from the city. He was stunned. Before he could speak, a crossbow arrow appeared first and sealed his throat.

It wasn't until several bodies fell that there was no commotion on the city wall.

"General, something is wrong!"

Someone yelled in horror.

"I'm bored."

The soldier in charge of the patrol was woken up from his sleep. His face was full of irritation. He was about to curse when he suddenly noticed Da Qin soldiers coming from a distance and was stunned for a moment.

I pinched my thigh hard, wondering if I was dreaming.

The severe pain made him regain consciousness quickly.

He was so frightened that he stood up from the ground. Without saying a word, he turned around and ran away to report the news.

City Lord's Mansion.

The Lord of Kashubi City was lying in the yard, hugging him from left to right, with a smile on his face, so happy.

This place is the closest to Da Qin, but due to the obstruction of the Himalayas and the fact that it is winter, the Qin people will definitely not be able to reach it, so he lives in drunken dreams every day.

boom!
The wooden door of the city lord's mansion was knocked open, and the soldiers ran in in a panic.

"You bastard, didn't I, the city lord, give an order? Without my order, no one can get close to me?" The city lord could only tremble for the last time, but was suddenly frightened, and his face instantly turned extremely pale.

Without hesitation, he reached out and picked up the saber from the side of the table, a look of madness on his face.

He swore that if he didn't kill this soldier, he would never be a human again in his next life!

Several maids were obviously frightened and quickly picked up their clothes to cover themselves.

There was no embarrassment on his face, but full of teasing, wanting to see how this soldier would be torn into pieces.

"Lord City Lord, something serious has happened. Someone is coming. Someone is coming."

The soldier ignored his fear and spoke in horror.

boom!
Before he could finish his words, the city lord kicked him to the ground and looked at him as if he were an idiot.

"Didn't I tell you not to sleep while guarding the city? How did you think of this city lord's words as farts?" The city lord smiled coldly.

Anyone who has seen the map knows that it is absolutely impossible for Qin soldiers to reach here.

Unless Qin soldiers have wings and can fly over the Himalayas.

is it possible?
"Look clearly, this mountain range is called the Himalayas, which is nearly 8000 meters high. Tell me, how did the Qin soldiers fight here? Ah! Can you tell me?" The city lord grabbed the soldier's head and pressed his face on the table. above the map.

I thought to myself, do you think this king is an idiot?

"Lord City Lord, I really didn't lie to you. Someone really came. I don't know if they are Qin soldiers. I only know that they are all wearing black armor and they are very brave."

The soldier almost burst into tears, his little face trembling with fear.

"roll!"

The city lord kicked him to the ground impatiently. Just as he was about to finish what he had just unfinished, but at this moment, the corner of his eye suddenly focused on the soldier.

As if he saw something, he quickly took two steps forward.

He raised his sleeve and wiped it on the soldier's armor. He glanced at it by the candlelight. His expression changed instantly after he saw it clearly.

Bloodstains!
"Idiot, why don't you report something as big as this quickly?" The city lord had a bad premonition in his heart. He kicked the kneeling soldier to the ground and hurriedly walked out.

The soldier was dumbfounded and felt extremely aggrieved.

special!
You obviously don't believe it, but you still blame me?
Not daring to hesitate, Yi Lulu got up from the ground and hurriedly chased after him.

The city lord left the city lord's palace, grabbed a carriage from the side, rushed to the city gate, and stepped up the city wall. When he saw the dark figures below the city, he was completely stunned.

Everywhere he looked, there were people everywhere, and the black soldiers almost covered the plain outside the city gate.

These soldiers were all wearing helmets and armor, holding Changge in their hands and carrying Qin crossbows on their backs. Just one look at them was shocking.

The war had already completely broken out, and because he was not here just now, the initial opportunity was missed, so that some Qin soldiers rushed to the city wall.A fierce battle is going on.

The city gate was blocked, and countless Qin soldiers were surrounding it and attacking the city gate.

There were soldiers from the Mauryan Dynasty in the city, rushing from the military camp to support them. Many of them didn't even have time to put on their clothes. It was obvious that they were asleep just now.

All this happened so suddenly, it only took a stick of incense.

"Damn it, how did these Qin soldiers fight here? That's the Himalayas over there. Can Qin soldiers really fly?"

After seeing the situation on the battlefield clearly, the city lord felt a little calmer. He raised his hand and took the map next to him, staring at the Himalayas with a look of disbelief on his face.

When the travelers of later generations arrived, they brought with them world maps and distribution maps of mountains, rivers, and rivers. Therefore, the ancients were familiar with various mountain ranges, but they were not much different.

It was precisely because of this that he let his guard down.

"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and transfer as many people as you can from the military camp. Hurry up!"

The city lord roared like crazy.

He turned around and looked outside the city, hoping to find the leader of the Qin army and capture the thief first, but he was soon disappointed. There were too many people and he had no idea where the other party's general was.

At this moment, Wang Jian stood on the chariot, and he was almost 100% sure that the Maurya Dynasty did not show weakness to the enemy, but really had no defense, with a relaxed expression on his face.

But deep in his eyes, there was still a hint of doubt.

This battle went so smoothly that it made him wonder if this was an illusion.

A soldier has experienced countless battles in his life and has extremely rich combat experience, but this is really the first time for him to fight such a massacre.

Not only him, but also many soldiers on the front line were stunned.

After being stunned, there was ecstasy.

This is almost the same as picking up military merit directly on the ground.

As a result, many Qin soldiers were beaten at the beginning, but in the end, they completely let go of their hands and feet, screaming and charging at the front line.

"Due to the long journey this time, I didn't bring a crossbow or a construction truck. I thought it would be a waste of time, but I didn't expect it to go surprisingly smoothly."

Wang Jian took paper and pen and recorded the process of the battle on it, focusing on the strength of the Maurya Dynasty. Then he waved his hand and ordered people to come over and send it back to Daqin.

Every major battle requires timely reporting, this is the rule.

Although the First Emperor never cared about it and claimed that he could arrange all plans on his own, the rules could not be broken.

Two hours later, the Qin army's advantage gradually slowed down, and all the soldiers in the Mauryan Dynasty camp recovered.

After the advent of the national war system, Qin soldiers' physical fitness increased by 118% in total.

The Maurya Dynasty is 90%, which is [-] points less than the Qin soldiers, but it will not be defeated so quickly, and it can be regarded as barely capable of fighting.

call!
The Lord of Kashubi City stood on the city wall and let out a long breath.Within two hours, the Maurya Dynasty paid the lives of nearly [-] soldiers, but finally stabilized the situation.

But soon, he became nervous again.

As time passed, Qin Bing's warlike advantages gradually emerged.

"Qin Bing is so crazy. It's as if he is risking his life. Every time he takes a shot, he is exchanging injuries for injuries. We are no match."

"The equipment of the Qin soldiers is extremely sophisticated. There are only 30 people with iron equipment in our city, which is completely unmatched."

The two deputy generals came to the city lord and shouted in horror.

The reason why I had the illusion that I was evenly matched with the Qin soldiers just now was because too many people died in the Mauryan Dynasty, and their corpses blocked the Qin soldiers from attacking.

When the Qin soldiers cleared away the corpses that had stumbled on the road, the situation became one-sided again.

"Why panic? We are fighting at home and Qin Bing is fighting away. The advantage lies with us. It is Qin Bing who should be panicking!" The city lord pretended to be calm and roared.

At this time, I must not be the first to panic.

"Pass my order and ask King Asoka for help immediately. Send someone quickly." The city lord seemed to have remembered something and said suddenly.

The war broke out so suddenly just now that he panicked for a moment.

"Lord City Lord, it is said that King Asoka is mobilizing troops and generals and planning major events. We are asking for help at this time." The soldier next to him stood up and said hesitantly.

boom!
Before he could finish his words, he was slapped in the face.

The city lord cursed loudly and said: "Don't you see how many Qin soldiers there are, can we stop them?"

"By the way, to prevent the Qin soldiers from sending people to kill the scouts, just send me 1 people to ask for help. I want to see if the Qin soldiers can stop them all."

He grabbed the soldier who was about to leave and warned him.

Immediately, the corner of his mouth raised with a sneer, wanting to see if the Qin soldiers could surround everyone here.

It is no longer important why Qin soldiers appeared. Even if they were figured out, it would not be important to the outcome of this war.

As for why the news was not received in advance, it is easy to guess that Qin Bing must have wiped out several villages on the road to prevent the news from leaking.

Between Da Qin and the Himalayas, due to the barren land and year-round snow, there are no large tribes, only hundreds of small villages. It is normal that Da Qin cannot be stopped.

"Qin Bing is really cruel. He actually wiped out all the hundreds of thousands of people of my Maurya Dynasty. These bastards deserved to be killed with a thousand cuts." The city lord clenched his fists, with resentment in his eyes.

Of course, there is more to worry about.

I have long heard that Qin soldiers are brave and capable of fighting alone.

"General, there is no need to worry. There are many soldiers in the city, and we also have the most advanced iron smelting technology. These Qin soldiers cannot pose a threat to us."

The deputy city lord stood beside him and comforted him in a low voice.

"hope."

The city lord said absently.

hum!
Before he could finish speaking, a crossbow arrow flew past his scalp, bringing blood to his face, which made him frightened and he quickly stepped back several steps.

"Haha, is this what you said there is no need to worry about? What are you waiting for? Send troops, hurry up and let the Qin soldiers take a look at the crossbows made by me, the Maurya Dynasty!"

The anger in the city lord's heart suddenly rose.

Somewhat frightened, he bent down and picked up the crossbow arrow that fell on the ground. It was just a little bit short of killing him!Looking at such exquisite arrows, I felt slightly silent.

Although they are both iron tools, the iron tools of Qin Bing are completely different from the iron tools they invented.

Qin Bing's craftsmanship was so sophisticated that with the same materials, it left the Mauryan Dynasty far behind.

According to his estimation, there is more than one version missing...

Fortunately, the city of Kasu is large enough to extend the battle line, and with the large population in the city, there is no fear of being destroyed in a short period of time.

The biggest feature of the Maurya Dynasty is its large population and large city.

After Ashoka sends his army to arrive, they can attack from both inside and outside to destroy the Qin Dynasty.

"What the hell, my Maurya Dynasty has so many people, I don't believe it. We can't win even with our lives." The city lord said fiercely.

At this moment, the soldier who first tipped him off ran over in a panic.

The city lord glanced at him, suppressed the anger in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "I hope you can bring me good news this time."

"This……"

The soldier froze on the spot, hesitation on his face, not knowing what to say.

"You trash, tell me quickly, what happened." The city lord was shocked. It was obvious from the soldier's face that it was definitely not good news.

The soldier swallowed secretly, carefully handed over the secret message in his hand, and said: "Lord City Lord, a rough estimate is that there are more than 100 million troops from Great Qin."

what!
The city lord was stunned and suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with disbelief.

As if going crazy, he snatched the secret letter away, opened it with trembling hands, and read every word.

After a few minutes, his face became extremely pale, and his whole body felt like he had fallen into an ice cave.

No one expected that Da Qin would send more than 100 million people.

"If only a small number of people and horses paid a higher price, it would be possible to cross the Himalayas, but nearly 100 million people have crossed that mountain. How the hell is this possible?"

The city lord swallowed secretly, his face full of confusion, and he couldn't control his swearing.

There is another possibility.

just.

Some dare not think in that direction.

Although we don’t know the specific strength of Da Qin, since it can cross the Himalayas, it means that its strength is extremely terrifying!

"Our city of Kashubi claims to have an army of 300 million, but there are only 50 elite soldiers among them, and the remaining 250 million are militiamen, and the equipment they wear is only the most common bronze."

The city lord was originally in a good mood, but after thinking about it for a while, his heart completely sank to the bottom.

I didn't expect that the gap between him and Da Qin would be so big.

The Qin soldiers were brave, equipped with powerful equipment, and had a high will to fight.
"What am I..."

The city lord's face trembled, he clenched his fist and punched forward.

My heart was full of sadness and I didn't know what to do.

They will not be defeated in a short time. The entire city has a population of nearly 1000 million, and even [-] million pigs cannot be killed in a short time. However, they must think of the next countermeasures and how to break this battle.

After a few minutes, he became desperate. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't figure out how to break the situation.

In the past, when he heard people mention how amazing and extraordinary the Qin soldiers were, he sneered at them, thinking that it was just deception. No matter how strong they were, how strong could they be? Only now did he realize that the Qin soldiers were really strong, so strong that even people were afraid of them. Can't afford a fight.

"Bring out the prepared peacock crossbows and peacock bed crossbows to me. Even if all the resources in the city are consumed, we must stop the Qin soldiers."

The city lord clenched his fists and kept cheering for himself in his heart.

It's not that he didn't think about escaping, but as a city lord, he was too conspicuous. Who knows how many Qin soldiers were watching secretly. Once he escaped, he would definitely be attacked in groups.

And he doesn't think that with the more than 1000 million people in his hands, there is no chance of turning defeat into victory.

boom!
The war entered a fierce state, and the Qin soldiers and the Maurya Dynasty began to face each other in close combat.

Time passed quickly. Three hours later, the Qin soldiers broke through the city gate and entered the city. Many people of the Maurya Dynasty had no choice but to pick up wooden sticks and join the battlefield.

If they didn't take action to resist, they wouldn't be alive.

After these ordinary people exchanged their lives, the war situation stabilized slightly, and with their numerical advantage, they withstood the Qin soldiers' attack.

The sky is bright.

The Qin soldiers retreated from the city, retreated ten miles away, and entered a state of rest.

After a night of fighting, everyone was exhausted. Although they could continue to fight forcefully, Wang Jian was unwilling to cause unnecessary casualties.

The news here has been spread, there is no need to rush at this moment.

Rather than achieving victory faster, he cares more about the casualties of his soldiers.

"General, we probably lost more than 3 brothers in this battle. The Mauryan Dynasty lost more than 70, of which 60 were soldiers, and the remaining [-] were civilians in the city. More than a million people were injured."

General Wang Ping came to the battlefield and respectfully reported.
