Great Wei Overlord

Chapter 1081 Strategic Deterrence
Chapter 1091 Strategic Deterrence

Ye Wuji said: "Although we have 80 people in Teotihuacan, there are only [-] soldiers, and the rest are servants. Our country Wei is the most honest, and we will never discount anything we say."

The Aztec Empire is now at the end of its rope. The nearest army of the Aztec Empire to Teotihuacan is at least a hundred miles away, and it will take at least two to three days to arrive here.When the reinforcements arrive at Teotihuacan, I am afraid that Teotihuacan will already be in ruins.

Drowning people will grasp at the last straw.After much deliberation, Traloca finally decided to accept the friendship of the State of Wei and let them admit that they are descendants of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, but they will lose their autonomy.But compared with death, this cost is almost negligible.

Meng En smiled, he felt that his task could be completed, Wang Ding also smiled, he felt that the title of Marquis was beckoning to him.

Yaxing Aim is a nobleman of the Aztec Empire. His father is the former Tlaloc. In his understanding, the Tlaloc should belong to him.However, he became an ordinary nobleman and was excluded from the core power circle. For Yaxing Aim, this result was unacceptable.

Yaxing Aim encouraged Tikal's army, making these primitive tribe soldiers howl with excitement, and even frightened the small animals in the jungle to flee in panic.Just when Yaxing Aim was about to attack, the gate of Teotihuacan opened automatically.

"Could it be that the Aztecs are going to surrender?" Yaxing Aim said to himself: "It must be so. Facing such a majestic army, resistance can only be a dead end. Living as a slave is better than dying." strong!"

However, what came out of the city gate was not the Aztecs who wanted to surrender, but a group of very strange black armored soldiers. These black armored soldiers raised their swords and guns and walked towards them slowly.

"What's going on here?" The perplexed Yaxing Aim hesitated for a while.

But at this moment, the situation was like an arrow on the string, and it had to be launched. Yaxing Aim was not as relaxed as before. He stared forward with a sullen face, and said viciously: "Attack."

"Attack." The order continued to be issued, and those Tikal officers and soldiers rushed towards the Wei State Control Guard with various weapons.In the eyes of Yaxing Aim, the enemy only has 50 to [-] people. No matter how brave the enemy is, they cannot defeat the Tikal army, which has [-] or [-] times the advantage.

At this time, Yaxing Aim felt inexplicably uneasy, but he didn't force himself to suppress the bad feeling in his heart, and said to himself silently in his heart: "Don't worry, there are so many of us. , Victory belongs to us in Tikal. The huge gap in strength cannot be made up by relying on courage.

But Yaxing Aim was still wrong, but he didn't know the true power of Wei Guo's expedition team.With 150 steps left, Meng En raised his hand and gave the order for the crossbow to shoot.

For weapons, Huaxia has been leading the world's technological advancement in ancient times.According to historians' research, as early as 3 years ago in the late Paleolithic period, humans in China had already started using bows and arrows.When Huaxia's surroundings just learned to use stone axes, stone knives and bone arrow clusters, the Huaxia people were already proficient in using bronze weapons.When the surrounding evil neighbors and old enemies learned to use bronze weapons, China had already entered the Iron Age.When the surrounding tribes and countries entered the Iron Age, China has already entered the Firearms Age.

In the ancient Chinese nation, in fact, with the tribes of surrounding countries, they have always maintained at least one era of equipment advantages.The Qin crossbow and the broad sword of the Qin Dynasty can blast the Huns out of the sky. Of course, the Huanshou sword and the rhubarb crossbow of the Han Dynasty can also hang the Huns and ravage the Donghu.That's why there is the bold statement: "A strong man who offends me will be punished even if he is far away", and there is even a strong statement: "All the sun and moon shine on are the ministers and concubines of the great man".Even in China's most desolate period, China's technology can still easily throw off the surrounding streets.

Almost all the technologies invented by China are related to the military. When steel was invented, it was first used in the military, and then various tools.But the Native Americans are just the opposite. They want to priest the gods. A Tikal Empire with a population of less than 200 million has more than [-] pyramids preserved to later generations, whether it is the Mayan civilization, the Inca civilization or the Aztec civilization. Civilization, in fact, all civilizations in America have achieved extremely high achievements in astronomy, mathematics, agriculture, art, and writing, but have stagnated in military affairs for a long time.

Today, the army of the Tikal Empire hardly has a steel weapon, and the number of bronze spears, spears, and guns is also very limited. Most soldiers only hold wooden guns that have been slightly heat-treated. As for the cowhide armor, the armor rate is actually low. Yu Yicheng.Looking at the Tikal Empire army in front of him, Meng En actually smiled and said, "Aren't we a bit too bullying?"

"What we do is to bully people!" A member of the expedition guard laughed: "We have encountered more than tens of thousands of aboriginals, and it is precisely because they are backward and ignorant, otherwise how could we have survived to this day?"

"Let them see the true strength of our Great Wei!" Following Meng En's order, the fifty members of the expedition guard immediately gathered together, forming a miniature spear formation.The front and arrow formation is a very common formation in the ancient formation. To explain it in the military terms of later generations, it can be summed up in four words: "Central breakthrough!"

With Meng En at the front, the fifty soldiers of the expedition escort moved forward silently. They had experienced too many battles with fewer enemies and more enemies, and they had long been used to it.In fact, the strength of Wei's army has been tested countless times. Facing Hu cavalry, Wei's infantry can block five with one.If it is armed by the natives of the Nanyang islands, the infantry of Wei State is enough to stop a hundred with one.Although they only have 51 people, if the Tikal army needs more than [-] superior troops, and they charge bravely, they can offset the bow and crossbow advantage of the Wei army. A Wei State soldier needs to pay nearly a thousand casualties.No matter how you calculate, there are more than [-] enemies in front of you, and it is impossible to do anything to them.

Yaxing Aim looked at the army slowly coming out of the city gate, and a very absurd feeling rose in his heart. He felt that these Wei people must be lunatics.Not even the bravest warriors of Tikal could face twenty enemies at once.But the other party only has more than fifty people, which is only nearly one-thirtieth of theirs.Twenty people fighting one is already a sure-win battle, let alone nearly 30 of them fighting one. "Win!" Yaxing Aim made an assertion in his heart.

Yaxing Aim's frown stretched out, and a sneering smile appeared on his lips at the same time.However, he seemed a little excited. Yesterday's surprise battle, the victory came too quickly, which really made him a little unhappy. The [-] troops of the Aztec Empire, who had long forgotten what war was, were too easy to fight.In less than an hour, they were all hacked and killed by the army of the Yandi Carl Empire.

This is understandable, the Aztec Empire has not had a war for nearly a hundred years, and all soldiers with combat experience have long since died of old age, and even in the entire Aztec Empire, the only people who have seen blood are those who are responsible for disposing of The executioner of the criminal slave.He had already found that the Aztec army was vulnerable, so he surrendered to the Tikal Empire.Yaxing Aim shouted excitedly: "Tikal warriors, attack!"

The barefoot soldiers of the Tikal Empire rushed towards the Wei State Expedition Guard with long legs.The brave Tikal warriors run very fast. They can cross mountains and ridges, such as walking on flat ground, and they can also chase migrating bison on foot.However, they didn't know that they were courting death.

That's right, they are courting death.The longest range of the Wei State infantry standard horse crossbow can reach up to 150 steps, and the distance of [-] steps has a very strong lethality.Especially against this kind of army that has neither shield nor armor.

"Shoot!" Meng En gave the order.

The soldiers of the Wei State Expedition Guard in the front arrows quickly filled the crossbow arrows into the arrow slots and fired.During the use of the crossbow machine of Wei State, it was found that when the enemy was charging, the shooting of the crossbow machine would easily cause unnecessary waste.For example, when it comes to targets that are threatening to crossbowmen, usually many crossbowmen will judge them and shoot them immediately.As a result, a target is usually hit by tens of hundreds of arrows, or even densely inserted with almost no gaps.In response to this phenomenon, the Wei State Staff Department formulated a strategy.Each combat unit (company or platoon) is led by its captain to shoot the first arrow, and the crossbowmen of its troops will spread to the surrounding area of ​​the arrow.

Watching the archery of the Wei State expedition team, Yaxing Aim smiled. Although the Tikal Empire didn't have much bow and arrow equipment, it didn't mean there wasn't any.The bows and arrows of the Tikal Empire are actually the most primitive hunting bows. Although they can shoot at a distance of [-] to [-] steps, the effective killing distance is only [-] steps. If you want to deal with thick-skinned animals, such as bison or wild boars, then You need to shoot at a distance of thirty steps.But Wei Guo's army actually started shooting beyond the three arrows. Can the arrows fly over such a long distance?This is simply a waste of arrows. You must know that the cost of making each arrow cluster is not low. What a prodigal, what a fool.

But just when Yaxing Em laughed out loud, without any warning, the dozens of people running in the front fell to the ground screaming.Since these Tikal fighters were running at full speed, the Tikal fighters who fell to the ground were stepped on by the fighters rushing up from behind.In fact, most of the dozens of soldiers who were shot were not seriously injured, especially the soldiers who were shot in the upper limbs or torso. Although they would bleed to death, the process would be very long, but those who could not stop He stepped on the big foot piece of his foot without hesitation, and the screams gradually subsided.

Just when those Tikal fighters realized that something was wrong, they were exposed to the crossbow of the Wei State Expedition Guard.The shooting speed of Wei Guomagong crossbow is very fast, and the highest record currently held by Wei Guojun is that ten breaths (ten seconds) can shoot seven rounds.Of course, ordinary soldiers are definitely not so perverted, but they can still shoot four to five rounds.

"Ahh!" The screams came again, and now the Tikal Empire soldiers' charging team was a bit chaotic, because it was too sudden and incredible.No matter how excellent a bow and arrow is, even if it is a gift from craftsmen to the Mayan king, that bow and arrow has been made by many excellent craftsmen, and its range is only more than 120 steps. These 120 steps are not within the effective shooting range, and the effective killing distance is not enough. Double the distance of ordinary bows and arrows, reaching eighty or ninety steps.But now, the bows and arrows of the Wei people have exceeded their limits.

Seeing dozens of hundreds of people fell down in the team, Yaxing Aim's face became ugly.Yaxing Aim collected his mind and managed to regain some composure. He had to do so, because he knew very well that since he had already reached this point, he must not back down.He is a traitor to the Aztec Empire, betrayed the Aztec Empire, and the Aztec Empire will never forgive him.Although the Aztec Empire was not powerful in force, it did not mean that they were a group of benevolent people. In fact, the Aztec Empire executed countless criminal slaves every year. The cruel methods were beyond imagination.If his sub-star Aim surrendered, the lightest punishment would be to burn him alive in the fire.

"Warriors of the Tikal Empire, attack, as long as you rush into the city of Teotihuacan, the inexhaustible wealth and countless beauties in it will all belong to the great Mayan king, and belong to the brave and fearless warriors! "In a very short period of time, Yaxing Aim thought of a wonderful way to boost morale.

The originally chaotic team finally stabilized slowly, but it was a pity that in this extremely short period of time, the soldiers of the Wei State Expedition Guard did not stop shooting, but continued to rain arrows on the Tikal Empire army.At a distance of one hundred steps, the horse crossbow can wear the hardest skull in the human body. Before the soldiers of the Tikal Empire ran ten steps, dozens of people fell down.

"Go ahead, ignore them, kill all the enemies, wealth and beauty belong to you, belong to the great Mayan king." Yaxing Em screamed loudly.

Only at this time, the soldiers of the Tikal Empire finally felt fear.Although they are ignorant and lagging behind, it does not mean that they are all fools. They are still clear about the situation that there is a dead end if they continue to move forward.

Just when Meng En led the soldiers of the Wei State expedition team out of the city to fight, Tlaloc, the High Priest of the Feathered Serpent, the High Priest of the Sun God, the High Priest of the Moon God and other nobles boarded the city wall of Teotihuacan to observe The scene on the battlefield.When they saw that the Wei State Expedition Guard, with just over 200 members, was able to kill more than [-] warriors of the Tikal Empire without any damage, they all took a deep breath in unison.

Tlaloc involuntarily opened his eyes wide, with astonishment and even a bit of terror in his eyes, looking straight at what happened next.He was already in a cold sweat behind his back at this time. In fact, there are dozens of city-states of different sizes around the Aztec Empire, and some of them did not surrender to the Aztec Empire and maintained absolute independence, while the Tikal Empire But the most belligerent empire in America.Since the establishment of the Tikal Empire, they have destroyed dozens of city-states and annexed or killed hundreds of thousands of people.The bravest Tikal Empire was vulnerable to the Wei State. If the people of the Wei State were really angered, wouldn't it be easy for them to destroy the Aztec Empire?
The High Priest of the Feathered Serpent God was actually not much better, he couldn't help shivering, a chill permeated his whole body, causing cold sweat to break out on his back, and murmured: "This...how is it possible... …how is this possible……."

In fact, Meng En was also a little anxious at this time. The seven-round crossbows fired by their 50 people had shot and killed at least two hundred Tikal soldiers. Although the enemy suffered heavy casualties, the enemy was still not defeated.Meng En knew very well what it meant that there was no rout.When the long-range weapons are suppressing the enemy, the disadvantage of the small number of people is still not obvious, but once the hand-to-hand combat is close, the disadvantage of the small number of people will undoubtedly be exposed.

In the past, when the soldiers of the Wei State Expedition Guard fought against the indigenous armed forces, they often won the victory after three or four rounds of crossbow shooting. When the enemy fled, they followed behind and pursued them.In this way, the record of Wei's army expanded more and more, and became more and more outrageous.Especially in the process of suppressing the indigenous rebellion in Zhenyuan Township, there was an even more disparate battle.A garrison army on Zhenyuan Island, Fenghuotun, with only five soldiers, relying on five crossbows, three horizontal knives, three shields, and two long spears, managed to hold on to the beacon tower for a day under the siege of thousands of native rebels. Without losing a night, their five soldiers achieved a record of beheading more than a hundred without losing a single person.

If the enemy did not retreat, the Wei State Expedition Guard would have to passively engage in hand-to-hand combat. In hand-to-hand combat, not all soldiers of the Wei State Expedition Guard would be beheaded by hundreds of people.Meng En said: "Mother, it's nothing more than that."

As he spoke, he took out a small black clay pot, and then unscrewed the wooden lid to reveal the cloth strips inside. Meng En put the cloth strips in the black clay pot on the torch and lit it.Immediately afterwards, Meng En threw the black clay pot out.Immediately after a loud noise came, a small black clay pot shattered, and a fireball with a radius of about ten feet suddenly appeared. After rapidly expanding outward, it immediately contracted inward, and then split into countless fireballs Flying all over the sky.
