Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me for corruption

Chapter 29 What a Qin Qing! What a great warrior in China!

"Send out the light cavalry on both wings, don't save your thunderbolts, and let me completely disrupt the enemy's formation!"

After Qin Mo's military order was issued, the light cavalry warriors on both wings immediately came out in full force, like two giant iron dragons with teeth and claws, swooping towards the Xiongnu formation from left to right.

The two Xiongnu kings probably did not expect that the Qin army would launch a decisive battle so quickly. Regardless of the chaos in the formation, they also sent nearly 40,000 horse archers to fight.

Such a large-scale cavalry battle made it seem as if the whole world was filled with the rumble of horse hooves!

Fusu's mouth felt a little dry when he saw it. He suppressed the palpitations in his chest and abdomen and said in a harsh voice: "General, is it too early for a decisive battle?"

This time, the Qin army fought all the way from the inside of the fortress to the foot of Yinshan Mountain in a fast and fast surprise attack.

This was his first time to experience such an upright battle like now.

"not early!"

Qin Mo shook his head decisively and said: "The greatest reliance of soldiers is thunderbolts. The power of thunderbolts is similar to the punishment of heaven, which can make people fear."

"But if the Xiongnu army is given time to adapt and its reality is revealed, the soldiers will inevitably have to fight a stupid battle, and the victory will be a miserable victory."

"Therefore, we will fight decisively, using dense thunderbolts to destroy the morale of the Huns!"

Thunderbolt bombs made of black powder exploded with terrifying force, but their power was truly unflattering.

Even if it is granulated black powder, its lethality is impressive!

While the two were talking, the light cavalry warriors had already engaged 40,000 Xiongnu horse archers.

"rush!!!"

Tu Sui and Ren Xiao took the lead, holding up their round shields to protect their horses. They lowered their heads and ignored the arrows hitting their armor, and charged at the 40,000 Xiongnu archers.

This close-to-face fighting style left the 40,000 Xiongnu archers at a loss as to what to do, and they all reined in their horses to get out of the way in shock.

The sparsely moving cavalry and archery formation suddenly became crowded!

The light cavalry warriors rushed straight through the passage that the Huns' archers had made way for. They used the match ropes wrapped around their arms to light and throw out thunder bullets one after another.

Boom boom boom——

Boom boom boom——

Boom boom boom——

Earth-shaking explosions resounded on the grassland, one after another, instantly overpowering the rumble of horse hooves.

The vultures circling in the sky were frightened and fled in all directions.

The Xiongnu archers on the ground were blown to pieces with their flesh and blood flying everywhere.

By the time the two groups of men and horses passed by each other and the deafening explosions stopped, the Huns' archers and cavalry were already in chaos.

Human screams.

Horse's neighing.

Then it resounded throughout the vast grassland!

In the Qin army's formation, Qin Mo shouted and ordered: "Heavy cavalry, attack!"

The guards on the left and right no longer need to ride their horses to deliver orders, they can only echo and shout: "Heavy cavalry, attack!!!"

Rumble——

Five thousand men, heavily armored and heavily mounted, under the leadership of the general Zhang Han, quickly moved forward and accelerated, forming a dense horizontal formation with a thousand men in a row, running over the Hun horse archers who had been destroyed by thunderbolt bombs.

Then he rushed forward without looking back.

Ahead, Tu Sui and Ren Xiao's light cavalry warriors were already bombarding with thunderbolts, disrupting the half-shrunk Hun army formation!

As for the 40,000 Xiongnu archers behind them, they were first bombarded by dense thunderbolts and then run over by 5,000 heavy cavalry. Some of them died, some were injured, and some fell off their horses.

The rest were so terrified that they prostrated themselves on the ground and begged the gods not to send any more punishment from heaven...

"Zhao Tuo, lead a thousand troops forward and collect all the horses first."

Qin Mo ignored the stunned Xiongnu soldiers and just pointed at the ownerless horses everywhere and ordered.

Without horses, even if these Huns soldiers come to their senses, it will be impossible to escape!

"Here."

Zhao Tuo, the general of the personal guard, clasped his hands and accepted the order, ordered a team of a thousand men to come forward, and collected the horses between the two formations.

Qin Mo turned to look at Fusu, who was gradually calming down. He pointed at the Hun army formation in front that had been dispersed by the heavy cavalry, and said: "My eldest son, they are all young and strong laborers. We can capture every one of them. Let's not do it." I’m free.”

"That's how it should be!"

Fusu nodded brazenly and drew the sword from his waist.

…

…

Shangjun, Wuku County.

Ying Zheng stood on the city gate tower, looking at the tens of thousands of Xiongnu prisoners outside the city, as well as countless cattle, sheep and horses, and said with a smile: "Conquering the Xiongnu is different from the conquests of other countries."

"In this battle, I think not only will we not lose money, but the national treasury will be full. Good luck! Good luck!"

Meng Tian respectfully said: "What your Majesty said is true. The wars among other countries are fought by the same family members, so they cannot help but tie their hands and feet."

"Comparatively speaking, it is easy to capture the city and capture the territory. It is the most difficult to appease the head of Guizhou and restore people's livelihood. The investment is large, but the harvest is very little."

"But there is no need to worry too much about these barbarians outside the Great Wall. Looting their populations, livestock, and goods can all enrich themselves!"

Ying Zheng nodded, and then suddenly looked into the distance. Danfeng narrowed his eyes and said, "There are several cavalry there with command flags on their backs. Maybe it's Qin Qing's military intelligence coming."

Meng Tian looked around and saw a number of people riding flying horses. He did not dare to neglect and immediately ordered his personal guards to go to meet them.

Leaning slightly, the knights, guided by the guards, ran towards the city tower, shouting from a distance: "Good news, the army has come out of the fortress to wipe out the Xiongnu royal court and capture Touman Chanyu alive!"

"Good news, the army came out of the fortress to wipe out the Xiongnu royal court and capture Touman Chanyu alive!"

"Good news, the army came out of the fortress and wiped out..."

Several riders came shouting the good news all the way.

Even though Ying Zheng was majestic and self-respecting, he couldn't help but get carried away at this moment. He clapped his hands and exclaimed: "Good! What a Qin Qing! What a great warrior in China!"

"Go around the city and announce the good news, making the people in the city happy."

"In addition, I will issue an edict to inform the people of Zhao and the people of all prefectures and counties in Qin... In this campaign against the Xiongnu, our Qin will be completely victorious!"

Under the influence of Qin Mo, he is now very good at winning people's hearts.

After receiving the emperor's order, the knight who reported the victory went around the city and shouted. After hearing this, the people in Wuku County ran out of the city to stop the knight who reported the victory to confirm.

After learning that the Xiongnu royal court had been destroyed and Lian Touman Chanyu had been captured alive, the people at the border of Zhao land immediately became excited.

There are laughing revelers.

There are also those who lie on the ground and howl.

The Xiongnu barbarians, who had plagued Zhao for hundreds of years, and General Li Mu did nothing about it, were finally eradicated.

From now on, the people of Zhao will no longer have to live in fear!

Some people saw Ying Zheng on the tower, and their excited cheers resounded inside and outside the city.

"Your Majesty the Emperor is mighty!!!"

"Your Majesty the Emperor is mighty!!!"

"His Majesty the Emperor is mighty..."

Ying Zheng stood at the top of the city, looking at the excited people inside and outside the city, and seemed to be touched in his heart.

This is the second time he has been cheered by the people of Zhao!

The first time, he only focused on the excitement in his heart, but didn't think much about it. This time, he was much calmer, and he thought more and deeper.

As an emperor who is worshiped by all the people, what should he do?

In other words, the responsibilities that a king should bear!

"Your Majesty, look quickly, there seem to be several more riders coming from that direction, and they are also carrying command flags on their backs!"

Meng Tian suddenly pointed into the distance and exclaimed again, which brought Ying Zheng's thoughts back.

Aim for the third update tomorrow!
