sweeping the world

Chapter 791
War is inherently full of cruelty and blood, both for oneself and for the enemy.

The Han army faced the collision of enemy chariots. It was a kind of pain that must be endured in a hasty battle with chariot troops in the field. It was also something that had to withstand the pressure, otherwise it would completely collapse.

Fortunately, chariots are very particular about the combat environment and need flat terrain without obstacles. Once there are obstacles in the way forward, they will be limited.

The tragic scenes at the front of the battlefield are being staged all the time. It is only with the increase of obstacles on the ground that the frequency of collisions by Gitanardo chariots decreases.

Li Jun must learn to ignore the cruel scenes and focus on the overall observation.He allowed the troops to advance appropriately based on his own judgment, and even sent jumping soldiers to enter the battlefield first.

Jumping soldiers is an academic name, they are a group of relatively flexible and light arms, they mainly swim and attack in field battles, and when necessary, they act as chasers to chase down the enemy's defeated soldiers.

At this moment, due to the fact that there are too many obstacles on the battlefield that can stop the chariots from advancing, some chariots of Jitanado had to slow down in advance. Some of them stopped intact, and some of them did not stop Hitting the obstacle in time, a considerable number of tanks appeared to stay put.

The jumping soldiers rushed forward quickly. The chariot lost its speed. The two or three people who were originally on the chariot had no intention of resisting. Catch and kill.

It's not that the stopped chariot soldiers don't want to drive the horses pulling the chariot again, it's that the chariot needs to be moved to change direction.And just three people couldn't move the car body at all.

In the Spring and Autumn Period of Zhu Xia, when chariots were the main force on the battlefield, each chariot would be accompanied by at least fifty infantry.Although these infantry are fighting with the chariot, they also have another function, which is to help move the chariot anytime and anywhere.

Only the chariot troops charged forward in Jitanado, and the infantry stayed behind and did not move. They obviously wanted to rush directly into the formation set up by the Han army. Perhaps they did not consider the need to turn around at all. Perhaps the commander who ordered the attack did not I never thought that the chariot that launched the charge would be able to go back.

After the Han army eliminated all the Gita Nador chariots that could be resolved, the originally noisy battlefield fell into an eerie silence.Most of the people looked at the scene after the battle with some fascination, the scattered or stacked corpses in various shapes and broken chariots.

The attached army that was supposed to complete the movement of the left and right wings to outflank them did not know when they stopped, and they were far from meeting Li Jun's requirements. When he found out this, he was very annoyed and sent his own soldiers to solve it.

The headquarters of the Han army, which suffered the impact of the chariots, would not have suffered heavy casualties, but the scene of the chariots impacting was too shocking.Wartime is not the time to count the casualties, but it takes a little time to stabilize the morale of the army, so it is temporarily unable to take any action.

On Gita Nado's side, the number of their charging chariots was [-]. They did not defeat the Han army headquarters in one fell swoop as they expected. Only about [-] chariots escaped back to the main formation.

"We can't fight anymore." Kun Ado-san watched the approaching enemy troops on the left and right flanks: "Retreat, if you don't retreat, you will be in danger of being surrounded."

No one had any objection, and the order to retreat was conveyed, and soon the Guitanado's troops began to move.They need to first untie the racks and ropes that connect the horses and the chariot body, then several people work together to lift the chariot to change its direction, and then reattach the racks and ropes. How much time it takes depends entirely on the speed of the work.

Li Jun spied the movement of Ji Tanado's side through the binoculars. He gave the order to attack without any hesitation, and his eyes were full of murderous intent as he looked at the attached troops on the left and right wings.

"General Lang." Dai Shen called out in a surprised voice, "Our cavalry troops are rushing here."

Li Jun looked in the direction Dai Shen pointed. There was a cloud of dust over there. Through the telescope, he could vaguely see the distinctive banners of Zhu Xia. It should be that Qian Jiantong was the first to deal with the enemy he was dealing with. He chose to attack this side. Carry out rescue operations.

It's not that there are no cavalry on their side, the problem is that they exist as scouts, and the number is really less.In fact, scouts are a very valuable unit even if there are a large number of them. Even if you kill ten enemies and lose one scout, it is a loss-making business. Li Jun would not be stupid to let precious scouts do that kind of thing.He ordered the infantry to attack, but he did his best. He might capture some of the infantry troops of Gitanardo, but it was impossible to capture the chariot soldiers.

The final result of the battle was that Li Jun's side had indeed bitten some of Gitanado's infantry, and Qian Jiantong's troops, who came to help them, chased them for twenty miles and intercepted more of Gitanado's infantry and a small number of soldiers. For the chariot soldiers, the results of the battle were not counted until after the night fell and the troops were withdrawn.

"It really comprehends that sentence, there are no obsolete units, only generals who can't use them." Qian Jiantong just got the statistics from Chang Shi: "We can find 420 chariots that we destroyed or captured. According to your description, the number of casualties in our tanks is at least a thousand?"

Li Jun's face was gloomy, and he said in a muffled voice: "It's a matter of course for the last general to send out a shield squad to try to intercept the charge of the enemy's chariot."

That's not to say, trying to organize a shield squad that tilts the shield wall to subvert the enemy's tanks. The effect of their efforts is not very good, but in some respects they still achieved the original goal, which is to intercept as many enemy vehicles as possible. Army chariots, if the enemy chariots are not allowed to hit the front line freely, the problem is that the casualties are really too serious, directly abolishing more than half of the tower shield soldiers in a division system.

"Don't ask about the process, if you can accomplish the goal, it's the correct response." Qian Jiantong seemed very tolerant. He really didn't think there was anything wrong with Li Jun's response, but it was another matter for those attached to the army: "Officers ten One kill is not enough!"

The command system of the Han army did not care whether the attached army could achieve the goal of outflanking the enemy by outflanking the left and right wings at that time.Not to mention asking why the affiliated army ignored the clear military order and acted as a crowd. After returning to the barracks, they summoned the officers of the affiliated army and started killing people by drawing lots according to universal rules.

Ten draws and one kill will be used in many ways, usually for defeated soldiers, those who die by drawing lots will pay the price, and those who are lucky enough to survive will also be deterred.In addition, it is aimed at military officers. Zhu Xia's side is quite tolerant of military officers' settlement after autumn, but Rome's side is much stricter.

"Out of the ten, four are selected for the canon punishment." Qian Jiantong didn't know the example of Rome, but was really annoyed, and added with a cold face: "The soldiers will execute ten draws and one kill."

What is the attached army used for?Anyway, it's not pretty.The Han army did not expect too much from the attached army, but it was absolutely unbearable that the attached army dared to ignore orders.

Li Jun was not the supreme commander of this army, otherwise he had issued the same order a long time ago, and he simply carried out the order after receiving Qian Jiantong's instructions.

Of course, it is not to do things casually, but to gather the headquarters of the Han army for preparations, and then dispatch the group of attached troops who disobeyed the military order to control them in batches.

Not every attached army will accept their fate during the process, they will clamor after they know what is going to happen.At this stage, some people must die, and their deaths have a deterrent effect, making the rest of the people draw lots with a fluke mentality.

"There's no need to be like this." Zantep Deilaos Shulaka wrinkled his face, and it was not the first time he pleaded for mercy, and he promised again: "I will restrain it, and similar things will not happen again .”

Qian Jiantong looked at the Sans who were clamoring again. Those who got the death lottery didn't want to die at all, either crying or trying to escape. The scene was a bit chaotic for a while.

"The reason why the army is an army is that the army desperately needs discipline." Qian Jiantong did not deliberately show fierceness, turned his head to look at Zantep Deilaos Shulaka expressionlessly, and said: "If you make a mistake, you should be punished." Lesson learned, blood will give those who are left the deepest and most peaceful memory, so that they will not make mistakes again."

Zantep Deilaos Shulaka was almost crying: "There are nearly a hundred officers and more than a thousand soldiers. They can play a greater role on the battlefield."

On the other side, Li Jun had already ordered the headquarters to be vigilant, and distributed weapons to other Ah Sans who had drawn birth lottery, and sent people to shout out.

"Get rid of them and wash away your shame. Otherwise, all of you will die!"

There are only 1 Ah Sans, and there have been Ah Sans who ignored military orders. The Han army looked at them and there was no positive comment anyway. It should look like an intruder, kindness cannot be appreciated, and only blood can be used to deter it.

It's not that the Han army wants to be a murderer. Every move must be strategic. If you adopt a high-pressure policy first, if you treat Ah San a little better later, you will definitely be grateful.

Ah San who got the death lottery, they are inviting those who got the life lottery to resist together.At the same time, Ah San, who had already drawn the death lottery, took action to survive. They either ran away, or made moves to attack the Han army, and without exception, they all turned into corpses lying on the ground.

Li Jun saw those Ah San who had drawn birth lottery holding weapons in their hands, some hesitated, some looked at the Han army fiercely, anyway, for the time being, Ah San didn't make a move to his comrades, and said two words coldly: "Let the arrow. "

The arrows were shot at Ah San who had drawn the lottery, because they had clearly received the order but did not carry it out. Killing them could show the importance of the order again, and also forced them to raise their weapons and rush forward to kill the fellow who had been drawn the lottery. robe.

The arrows shot by the archers of the Han army were a little sparse, but they didn't kill many people, but they played a "whip effect" and made those hesitant Asan move.

Ah San's choice of moving was a bit mixed, some rushed towards the Han army fiercely, some really attacked the comrades who had drawn the death lottery, and the rest knelt down and cried, and the scene was completely chaotic.

Ah San who was dying was all Zantep Deilaos Shuraka's subordinates, his cheeks twitched constantly while watching the chaotic scene, and his hands hidden in his robe kept clenching into fists.

Qian Jiantong naturally discovered the abnormality of Zantep Deilaos Shulaka. He felt that he had taken good care of not letting this Asan Brahmin clean it himself. Let this Asan Brahmin do this kind of dirty work from the beginning.

"Do you know why we Han people killed you in this continent?" Qian Jiantong didn't wait for Zantep Deilaos Shulaka's response, and continued on his own: "Because we Han people are more You pursue discipline more, and use discipline to restrain a group. Don’t think that we are targeting you specifically. Anyone who disobeys military orders, no matter who they are, should pay the price. Things like today don’t just happen to you.”

Zantep Deilaos Shulaka asked in disbelief: "You mean, Chinese soldiers will also draw life and death lottery?"

"Of course." Qian Jiantong nodded affirmatively: "Without blood as a deterrent, how can discipline show dignity? Not only do we Han people die, but Qin and Persia, which are both powerful countries, don't have such rules?"

Zantep Deilaos Shulaka is a Brahmin from a small country. He stays in a corner and exercises his privileges as a Brahmin to do his best.He didn't know if what Qian Jiantong said was true or not, but he felt much better after hearing it.

At the scene of the execution, because there were too many people, there were a lot of places that were allocated. In some places, the killing of the drawn death lottery was completed, and in more places, it was still going on.

Zantep de Yilaus Shulaka did not know what he had learned from Qian Jiantong's words. Afterwards, he walked to various venues and shouted to let the thirds accept their predetermined fate.

Something that surprised the Han people happened. After Zantep de Ilaus Shulaka shouted, the three of them actually obeyed the instructions. Those who got the death lottery did not necessarily want to die, but the life lottery was drawn. Ordering to kill the person who draws the death lottery is brandishing a weapon.

"His influence is so great?" Li Jun had already come to Qian Jiantong's side, watching Zantep Deilaos Shulaka's actions from a distance: "Is it class or personal charm?"

"Their side is very magical, and class suppression is very obvious." Qian Jiantong didn't think that the mediocre Zantep Deilaos Shulaka would have any superhuman charm. After thinking for a while, he said: "In their In the social system, the Brahmins can decide the life and death of the classes below the Kshatriya."

There is nothing strange about it. In any country or nation, the upper echelons can decide the fate of the lower classes, but Ah San's side is more obvious.

"I hope that after this time, Ah San can learn a lesson."

"Hopefully."
