A World of Ice and Fire
Chapter 618:A World of Ice and Fire
Another general's speech of the center of exhortation to the person who spoke before, he knew that although his little partner's emotional intelligence was somewhat low, his combat effectiveness was very strong.Although the consul said that the D-Qin cavalry was not much of a man's ability, the officer who had been following the situation of DhQin told them privately before they left, and that the cavalry of D-Qin could not be underestimated, especially if they would be a kind of man for a squad, and it was really very difficult to unite.
In this way, this character more cautious general left a heart, after all, the enemy is also close to 300,000 people and horses, in case the combat is really strong, they are long journey, not ten nine stable can achieve very good results.
Hu Hai was still really quite punctual, according to the time the messenger told them, not early, not too late, with their own 30,000 horses arrived.
After Hu Hai, he saw that the sergeant brought here was much more regular than the last time, but the hundreds of thousands of people in front of him were still wearing everything, and a look was a miscellaneous army, the same cannon fodder.
The Chinese army's 100,000 up and down the horse is clearly armored, the weapon Yu Xuanang, a look is with great confidence, Hu Hai cold eyes also see, these are the real Romans elite, they want to defeat the Dqin people in the territory of Seliu, the main thing to rely on is certainly this team of horses.
"Since you have also arrived, then start quickly, otherwise once the DQin people saw the clues, our raid will not be so simple, now at least we must take a city first, otherwise how can we make them panic?" 」
After Hu Hai arrived, a Roman general arranged him to the position of the rear army, and it seemed to them that Huhai and his 30,000 shrimp crabs would certainly not play a role in any way, and it would be better to help point the way or something.
Hu Hai was also happy, he silently followed the big army quickly in the direction of Seryu, but his heart did not know what to think.
The place where they are currently starting is a day away from Seylu, and there is no decent force around them, which provides a good convenience for their marching secrets.
The reason why the time of the march was set at this hour was that, according to the speed of their march, it would be very late at night when they arrived at Séluci, which was of course the best time for a surprise attack, and although the Romans were arrogant, they still had complete experience in this respect, otherwise they would not have won the final victory in the war with Hannibal.
But when they set out for most of the day, the city of Sedule received a message from the people of Sedule to the next general of Han Xinjun.
It was a letter written in the language of the Peacock Dynasty, and after Han Xin and Meng Cai found the right person to translate it, they all showed a look of surprise, because the epistle was written on nothing else, but within a day the Roman army would come down to the city.
In fact, Han Xin and Meng Cai had learned from Philip V that the great army of Rome had rushed to the news of Sedul, and their estimated time was the two days, but the news was undoubtedly more accurate, and they were surprised by nothing else, it was they who had no other allies besides Philip V and Xiang Yu, and it was impossible for someone so deeply to control the first-hand information inside the enemy to inform them.
“Did you shoot it early?”
“It will not be the plume, who should be waiting at this time at the border of the Sedule and the Peacock dynasty in case of need, and he knows that it will not be long before he can be mixed into the ranks of the Romans.”
After making several speculations, Meng and Han Xin were basically rejected by themselves.
But it is impossible to guess who this person is not affecting the accuracy of the news, and if there is no previous news of Philip V, Han Xin will not be very dare to believe it, but now the accuracy of the news is certainly no problem.
Knowing the direction and approximate time of the enemy's arrival is of great significance to Han Xin and Meng Cai, who are sitting in an army of two or three hundred thousand, and they will certainly not allow the enemy soldiers to come to the city.
And they both knew that if they had not been in alliance with Philip V and the letter, the enemy would have been a raid on them.
The two quickly set a strategy, this first battle must let the enemy know the power of the Qin, in other words, to face the enemy, the enemy wants to attack them, then they give the enemy an ambush, on the one hand can catch them off, on the other hand through this battle can know the enemy's real ability, for the future of the other battle to prepare.
In fact, at this time, there is not much time left for Han Xin and Mengtao, they organized some horses, or by Meng Cai out of the city ambush, Han Xin in the city to answer.
In Scully's this period for Meng Cai is simply in heaven, he has been guarding the upper county, he has always been in the upper county, he thought that he has been like this in his life, but did not expect Higdor to send him to the Peacock Dynasty, and let his war career rejuvenated the second spring.
At the beginning of the war against Seyron, although Meng was Han Xin's deputy, but when there was a war, Han Xin, as the commander of this time, even if he wanted to recruit again, had to sit in the city, and almost every time the matter of killing outside the city fell on the body.
And these wars, whether in the face of the Séluites, or later the Romans sent to test the army, Monty let them know the strength of the Great Qin cavalry, this time the face is likely to be the real elite of the Romans, although a little nervous, but still very excited.
If he can defeat the Roman cavalry this time, then even if he is old when he really wants to attack Rome for two years, he must have a lot of credit.
In the night, Meng Cai took a hundred thousand of the most elite people out of the city, according to the direction of the Romans, they will choose to attack in this city, which has been judged by Han Xin and Meng Cai a few days ago, and they have been arranged for the guards of this city for several days.
In fact, the Romans did not realize that in this era you can have ambition, but your strength must be enough to support your ambition.
DQin has ambitions, so DQin will have conquered the Peacock Dynasty and Seklu before and after, but DQin has always been in the power, attacking the Peacock Dynasty of the war Dqin prepared for two years, and then a hammer.
The attack on Saille was also successfully captured by Han Xin in the territory of Dhexin and the territory of the Peacock Dynasty for a short time.
During this period, although he knew the existence of Macedonia and the Romans, and knew that their strength was very strong, he never sent people to explore any of their affairs, not because he did not have that ambition, but because he understood that he knew the news at this time, he was also a way to do not have any way.
One of the truths that Qiao Gao knows is that when your strength really reaches that level, just like the current DQin, it will naturally attack their doorstep, and then the road left for them is only to surrender and die.
But the Romans obviously did not know this truth, or that they thought they now had that ability, so they not only sent personnel to observe the movement of Dazin, but also sent a large number of sergeants after discovering that DQin might develop into a threat to them.
All of this they have done, of course, has a basis, that is, the ability of DQin and the combat effectiveness of the army must not catch up with them, they want to destroy the DQin before the real development of the DQin, at least to let the Qin can only occupy the Peacock Dynasty, but can no longer advance.
They certainly did not know that DQin had united everything they could unite, and had prepared a large net for their army, waiting for them.
"The city of the twenty miles ahead is Sedule, and according to today's situation, the generals of DQin are really not on the defensive."
The two generals with the Roman army looked at the land of Sedule at about to arrive, sent a small team of reprimands to spy, and found that the other side really did not wait on the wall, and the two generals thus determined that their raid still had a very large possibility of success.
"I'll take a team of people to attack first, and if I can break through the city gate directly, I'll wait for follow closely behind."
The Roman general who looked down on Huhai before, looked at the situation and would attack it himself.
"No, I'm not afraid of ten thousand, I'm afraid, we're going to have to let those guys who can't fight first to try it, and if we really beat the big Qin general and catch up, I'll go and take the city gate again, otherwise if there's any change in it, our losses will be very heavy."
It must be said that there are still some very powerful people among the generals in Rome, which is the reason why the Roman consul sent them together, and the ability of these two generals is quite complementary.
If it really seems to be the first person to do so, it is indeed possible that the city of Sedulcan will be broken in the first place, but once in the ambush, the consequences will not be good, although the general who persuaded him did not believe that they would encounter ambush, but the intuition of many years of fighting still let him not agree with his companion a little impulse decision.
In this case, the two of them first called out a general who was not a Roman, and let him take the fifty thousand men under him as fast as he could from the gate that struck Saille.
At this time, Hu Hai took his 30,000 people or followed the army, watching what was moving without a city, and his heart could not help but observe a few minutes of silence for the 50,000 people, and the decision of the Romans was what he wanted to see.
After all, the result that Hu Hai wants to get is two defeats, and the premise of the two losses is that the Romans first used the sergeant to attack the city, and when the elite soldiers of Dhexin came out, it must be the finger-point against the Ma Man, which is the scene that Huhai wants to see.
The raid, the emphasis is on an efficiency, after the arrangement, the unlucky general with 50,000 people directly on the horse first attack, the other people followed closely behind him.
Soon, they reached the city not far, and the fifty thousand horses did not stop without any pause, and ran to the gate.
The silence above the gates and walls made them think that his raid had been a success, but it was clearly not so, and it was only three seconds of excitement that an arrow flew out of the city, right in the middle of the cavalry's cheek.
The screams reverberated in the night sky, which seemed very harsh.
"No, the big Qin people in this city are ready, and quickly let them withdraw!"
The general was still very happy with his previous decision, and if it were his elite Roman cavalry, there would be no big difference in the face of the arrows.
A scream was followed by a lot of screams, and the 50,000 people faced the rapid flight of the arrow, that was called a tragedy, it was all the Qin Qin, but when everything was shot, there was basically no possibility of survival.
"To inform them quickly, to retreat and then to think of the matter from a long time, it is that our 300,000 troops are very much on the trail, and have been perceived by the enemy, that the raid is no longer possible, and that some other means must be thought of."
After a little deliberation, the two generals made a decision to withdraw.
The 50,000 people lost thousands of them in an instant, and the rest fled in the arrows, and after hearing the retraction order, they fled quickly, and in the process of escaping, they were still shot a lot by the arrows.
When they were at last all retreating to safety, the Roman general ordered the horse to turn its head, suddenly there was a burst of rumble on both sides, and the experienced generals heard it all at once, the sound of horseshoes running fast.
“We are in ambush!Hurry up and prepare for the enemy!”
At this point, even if they could not believe it, they had to believe that it had been proved that not only had their raid plan had failed, but that they had fallen firmly into the encirclement of the enemy.
The time when Meng Cai chose to attack was simply to the point of pure fire, it was when the enemy's cavalry was turning the horse head to go back, this time the formation was very scattered, coupled with the panic caused by hearing the sound of the enemy's horseshoes, so that these cavalry were very passive.
