C544 Doomsday for the Gupta (I)
God has closed this door for you, and will surely open another window for you! Maybe it was because of those words, but just as Meng Tianhu was about to use the gunpowder to blow up the Ganges River embankment, create a flood, and use the flood to send the troops to the front lines, when the entire army of the Qin Army Army was only a third of the way to their destination, the torrential rain that fell for half a month suddenly stopped.
The Eternal River Plains, which had a radius of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, suddenly became clear. Losing a large amount of rainwater, the flow of the Ganges River fell rapidly. When the Ganges River embankment was blown apart, the water on the flat surface was at least one and a half feet deep. But after a short period of time, the water level had rapidly dropped. Meng Tianhu watched anxiously in his heart. If the water level were to drop, even if they could barely reach Rajmer, the centipede boat that was in charge of transporting the army's supplies and supplies along with the various small boats would not be able to return.
Just as Meng Tianhu was at a loss of what to do, General Fu Bo of the Qin Army's Navy sat on the boat with the's Deputy Fleet Leader Zhou Tong Meng Tianhu. From far away, Zhou Tong's unique loud voice shouted, "This General Meng is in a bad situation! I'm afraid our navy will never return! "
With regards to Zhou Tong's grievances, Meng Tianhu could understand. Anyone with a brain would have thought that without a sufficient source of water, the flood would quickly subside. Meng Tianhu did not care much about the more than four thousand small wooden boats that he captured from the Gupta's navy, but he did care about the more than five hundred centipede ships that were used as close-combat beehive tactics in the active service in the Qin Army. The prototype of this type of Centipede Ship was a light sailing ship from the Spanish Navy in the sixteenth century. Of course, Xie Fei didn't steal it for use directly, but made some huge changes to it. The mast that was originally placed was immediately cancelled, and from then on, Qin Army's Centipede Ship would be small, light, fast, eat shallow water, and have a small target, but its combat power was not weak at all.
Meng Tianhu laughed helplessly: "General Zhou, you've seen it yourself, what do you mean by 'heaven's will'?! This is heaven's will. Even if we order the fleet to go back the way we came, you all won't be able to go back! "
Zhou Tong thought for a moment. They had already traveled two-thirds of the way back. Even if they went back along the same route, they could still travel half the way back. Zhou Tong said with a sad face: "General Meng, what should we do? It's fine if those boats are destroyed, but there are more than five hundred centipede boats among them! This is all the light ships in the Third Fleet, if not for these 500 over centipede boats, what could our navy possibly do to control the Ganges? But now, I have become the commander who suffered the most losses in the history of the Qin State's navy. I really don't know how to explain this to the Emperor! "
Although the flood had receded, the road ahead was still difficult. Even when Meng Tianhu thought hard, he still could not figure out how to bring the five hundred centipede ships back into the water.
Meng Tianhu smirked: "Brother Zhou, don't be discouraged! If the Emperor asks out the truth, you push the responsibility on top of you. The plan was formulated by me, and the order was given by me.
Zhou Tong said: "When the time comes, General Meng better not admit to it!"
"How can you not admit to this? This was a great achievement. Could it be that there are people who think that they have done too much? " A voice sounded from behind the two of them, causing Meng Tianhu and Zhou Tong to unconsciously look behind them.
At this time, Huan Wen laughed leisurely: "There is a saying, as we come, we can do it; when the flood recedes, all battleships will not be able to return. Is this the biggest loss to the Qin Army's navy? But that's not the case. We can change our perspective and think from the perspective of His Majesty. "
"Switch positions and think?"
Huan Wen nodded: "That's right!"
Huan Wen quickly walked to the catapult's prow and pointed to an octopus crossbow. "There are four octopus crossbows and two catapults on each of the more than five hundred centipede ships, we can transform the stranded centipede ship into a semi-fixed fortress to defend against the Gupta's cavalry's attacks. These two thousand octopus crossbows and a thousand catapults are equivalent to twenty thousand soldiers. "
Meng Tianhu smacked his own head. Why didn't I think of this? The Gupta's cavalry has a total of more than two hundred thousand troops, our entire force only has eighty thousand, and the odds of us winning are not high anyway. If we can increase this power, our odds of winning will increase by at least thirty percent! "
"Use whatever power you can! "Good boy, your majesty's military strategy is truly profound!" Meng Tianhu scolded Huan Wen with a smile.
The torrential rain had stopped ~ ~ In Gupta Army's camp, cheers sounded throughout the huge camp. Vikramaditya scrambled to his feet. Even though he was the sovereign of a country and had been in the army for many years, he felt that there was nothing wrong with it. At this moment, the cheers were clearly filled with the color of celebration. With the help of the servants, the Vikramaditya put on armor. He turned to the attendants in the tent and asked, "Do you know when it will be so noisy outside?"
When the Vikramaditya was fully dressed, the servant in charge of checking the details quickly reported, "The almighty King, Buddha has blessed the Gupta Empire, the torrential rain has stopped, now that the flood has retreated, our army can continue to attack!"
The Vikramaditya was dressed entirely in military attire, with a serious face, he walked out of the tent. Seeing the afterglow of the setting sun, the hundreds of thousands of war horses roared into the sky. More than two hundred thousand Gupta warriors were chattering away with faces full of excitement as they howled wildly at their companions. It was already late in the night, so Vikramaditya could not see the expressions of the soldiers clearly. However, he could feel that at this moment, the entire army camp was filled with a festive atmosphere!
Finally, after the days of invisibility had gone away, Vikramaditya felt his entire body relax. Although the flood could have made it easier for him to destroy the city, it was mostly inconvenient. Most importantly, their food supply, especially the horses' food, was very little. If they relied on their horses to eat the weeds on the ground, it wouldn't be enough to ensure the stamina of the war horses. In wartime, war horses needed to be fed extra food to ensure their physical strength.
Looking at the countless soldiers brandishing their sabers and the loud howls of "Roar ~ ~ ~", they were excited to the point that they were like furious elephants.
On the contrary, he was much calmer. Ever since he fought with the Qin Army, the Gupta Army had always won more and lost fewer, losing cities consecutively, and the entire Gupta Empire was also in pieces. The Vikramaditya was slightly moved, why did a person like the Qin Emperor appear in this world, why did he have to be a warrior that was even fiercer than the Gupta Army?
Seeing that the main forces of the Union Army of India were all gathered around the Hadwa region, while the main forces of the Qin Army were roaming around the Kara Peninsula and the acanthopanax, this was the best opportunity for him to counterattack. He had to win on this point, otherwise, he would lose his power and status. If he failed, even if he entered the path of rebirth, he would not have a good ending. Going to hell to suffer would be inevitable.
Vikramaditya stopped the emotional sighs in his heart and immediately jumped on a tall, red warhorse. He used all his strength to shout, "Warriors of the Gupta, our Gupta Empire will win! My great Vikramaditya will bring you all to wipe out this rebellion and return to Huadian City honorably! "
Countless soldiers responded. Their roars tore through the sky and pierced straight into the clouds, "My Gupta Army is victorious, victorious!"
The setting sun's sunlight shone onto Vikramaditya's body like a pillar of light. The golden sunlight and the golden armor made him look like an invincible war god! Seeing the solemn scene, countless Gupta warriors couldn't help but kneel on the ground and worship.
Vikramaditya sighed with emotion as he looked at the pious soldiers on the ground. He roared, "Buddha has spread the radiance of benevolence and helped us Gupta Empire erase the mystery. Buddha will not give up on his followers. Kill all the pagans, spread the buddhist mantra across the world! "
"Roar!" Roar! "Roar!"
The Gupta Army had exploded the most tenacious belief in their hearts. Under the same sky, after reaching the Qin Army of Dalagemore, the flood had almost subsided. Right now, the deepest flood was only above their knees. At this time, on one hand, the Qin Army let the airship scout the movements of the Gupta's cavalry, and on the other hand, she used the stranded centipedes to set up a semi-fixed position. Of course, in order to prevent the many centipede boats from being destroyed by the Gupta Army, it was the first sand sack shelter in the history of the world.
The Qin soldiers used a cloth bag to fill the bag with sand and set up a barrier around the Centipede Boat. Every centipede boat would form their own combat unit, and the tunnel would be the first to connect them. It could be said that these more than five hundred centipede ships had been converted into a bunker, making it a formidable fortress. Almost every ship required tens of times the enemy to attack, and they had to pay a heavy price to conquer this useless military fortress!
Just like the Gupta Army, at this time, the Qin Army also exploded with strong conviction. These simple men, who relied on their military merits to prepare to change the living standards of their families, were like a rain of men. Originally, in the Age of Cold Weapons, the battlefield was just to dig a trench and set up a camp.
At this time, the Qin Army had already dug up thousands of gaps in a row. Same as normal fighting, the Qin soldiers was also very meticulous in their attitude towards the construction of the fortifications, arranging layers of camouflaged positions, establishing grain storage warehouses, construction of artillery and fire dragon chariots, wutong tank s and catapults, replenishing arrows and shells, stone bullets, light loading of military equipment, forming of a team, preparing for battle.
Meng Tianhu's Battle Command Headquarters had also been established, and had established communication links with all the combat units at the frontlines. The entire ambush position for dozens of miles was slowly coming to an end, the peaceful night sky was covered with stars, the Qin soldiers s had entered into a deep sleep, while Meng Tianhu had not slept for a long time. Victory belonged to those who had made sufficient preparations.
He carefully checked the arrangements everywhere, afraid of leaving any loopholes for the opponent to take advantage of. He checked the supplies everywhere and the reserves of all sorts of strategic items!
Meng Tianhu's main tent was brightly lit, from Meng Tianhu's main tent to the outside, the smell of gunpowder in the surrounding dozens of miles of ambushing ground was extremely strong!
The Eternal River Plains, which had a radius of hundreds of thousands of square kilometers, suddenly became clear. Losing a large amount of rainwater, the flow of the Ganges River fell rapidly. When the Ganges River embankment was blown apart, the water on the flat surface was at least one and a half feet deep. But after a short period of time, the water level had rapidly dropped.
