A turbulent era! Group after group of young people have emerged. Lei Fei, Chao Cuo, Yuan Ang, Li Shang and others are the best among many young people. They have seized the opportunity, while more people are unknown. They are just ordinary soldiers in the Western Expedition, their names are just numbers in the military register, and their experiences may be just a bunch of waves in a certain battle. The flaming tail ship still doesn¡¯t give up the fight in desperate situations! Wave after wave of crossbow bolts shot out from the fire, repelling the approaching Romans again and again. Looking from the ship where Lei was sitting, it could be found that the hull of the tail ship had tilted seriously. If it weren't for the helmsman, He and the oarsmen still refused to give up, fearing that the warship would sink to the bottom of the sea early. "Bang the drum! Tell Marquis Yan Jun that I, the Great Qin general, am proud of him; I, Lei Fei, am proud to have such a good brother like him!" Lei Fei said loudly with a twinkle in his eye. Between men. He has his own pride that moves the world. The captain of the tail ship said that he was from the south like Lei Fei, a native of Wu, Jiangdong County. He was already thirty-six years old and had a young family with one son and one daughter. The ancestor of Yan Hui was Yan Yan, the only southern disciple among the seventy-two disciples of Confucius. In the Wu area, there were Wu and Yue first, and then there was Qiang Chu. Here, there are dense swamps and snakes and insects. The people live here. The natural conditions are harsh and the life is extremely miserable. It is not easy, but in the mountain and forest area, the Shanyue people wear red hair and shawl, live with snakes and pythons, and the folk customs are fierce, which is completely different from the Jiangnan area where Wu Nong talked softly in later generations. Yan Hui joined the Qin Army in the thirteenth year of the Qin Dynasty, which was at the end of the Unification War. When the Qin State dispatched the Southern Expeditionary Army to deal with Mitsukoshi, the situation at that time was already very clear. Although Mitsukoshi had Xiang Zhuang, Zhao Tuo, Compared with the generals of Great Qin, a capable general like Mei Juan is really no worse than one or two. The Battle of the Southern Expedition. Yan Hui followed the large army around in the vast jungle in the south, but did not get any decent credit. Later, as the war subsided. Yan Hui returned to his fields and became a self-reliant farmer in Jiangdong County with peace of mind. However, this kind of boring life is too difficult for those who have experienced military career. Great Qin¡¯s Western Expedition! Emperor Shenwu Li Yuan ordered all counties to summon warriors to join the process of expanding the territory. Yan Hui immediately signed up in Jiangdong County. However, because Jiangdong is too far away from Guanzhong, when Yan Hui and others arrived in Chang'an, they could only be incorporated into the baggage rear troops. One step behind, one step behind. Yan Hui¡¯s second military career started in a dull way, without any glorious victory. There is no classic battle example of defeating more with less. Instead, there is only the pursuit of the remnants of Parthia and the annihilation of one or two groups of bandits who dared to take advantage of the Qin army's baggage. An ordinary soldier, he was promoted to the captain of a ship in the Qin Navy. The structure of the navy is different from that of the land army. The status of the captain of a ship is equivalent to that of the captain of an army. Of course, due to the limitations of the ship's tonnage and the number of people it can carry, the number of Yan Hui's men, including the oarsmen, is only a mere 120 or so. This number is comparable to that of the army commander who commanded thousands of men. Comparing the teams, the differences are huge. However, Yan Hui doesn¡¯t care. For him who grew up among rivers and lakes. Being able to step on the deck of a ship and row the warship with a wooden oar is a blessing given by God. The drums are beating! The sound of familiar drumbeats cheered Yan Hui up. From this series of drumbeats, he could feel the meaning expressed by the friendly ship, which was that Lei Fei had not come back to rescue him. Yan Hui had no complaints. From the moment he joined the Qin army, he understood what kind of army it was. sacrifice spirit. It is a required course for every Daqin soldier with ideals and beliefs, countless times. In his dream, Yan Hui imagined that he could be like his ancestors in Gaolin, Chang'an, with their names engraved on the forest of steles and being admired by generations of young soldiers. Maybe one day, his son will pass by Gaolin¡ª¡ª. "Brothers, prepare - let go!" Yan Hui pursed his lips tightly and silently took out the last ten consecutive arrows from the arrow box on his back. After checking them carefully, he placed them one by one on the bronze crossbow. In the launch box. Before becoming the captain, Yan Hui was an excellent crossbowman. Now, the casualties on the tail ship are increasing day by day under the dual pressure of the Romans and the fire. Only five of the fifteen crossbowmen can still shoot, including Yan Hui, the temporary guest commander. Five people. With only a single force, it can be imagined how difficult it would be to resist the Roman soldiers who kept trying to jump off the side. Fortunately, the innovation of crossbow technology gave Yan Hui the confidence to give it a try. The machine crossbow in the hands of the Qin crossbowmen is a new type of repeating crossbow, a portable repeating crossbow.Crossbow arrows usually come in five boxes, which is fifty powerful arrows. Including the ten boxes rescued from the warship, Yan Hui had already fired one hundred and forty crossbow arrows in just half an hour after the battle. , this density is unmatched by the old single-fire standard crossbows. If in the past, he could fire a hundred arrows, even five or sixty arrows, his eyes and arms would be sore. Although the crossbow does not require arm support, long-term use of the flat-end crossbow will still give people a strong The oppressive feeling, and even if I squinted my eyes and stared at Wangshan for a long time, I couldn't bear it. However, after replacing the new repeating machine crossbow, the difficulty of the crossbowman's firing has been greatly reduced. Ten arrows are fired in a row, and the overwhelming force of arrows is shot out. Even if the crossbow is a little off, it can still make people unable to hide. "Marquis, the crossbow bolts are gone!" "Marquis, the Romans are coming, let's fight!" The sound of drums in the distance gradually became inaudible. Yan Hui took a long breath of the slightly fishy sea breeze and used his armor. The cloth bandaged the burns on his back, and he could hear the soldiers' shouts clearly. After paying the price of more than 200 people, the Romans finally approached the besieged Qin army's tail ship. . ¡ª¡ª. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Up and down the Roman fleet, the excitement started when they saw the Qin warships on fire, then they were repelled time and time again, and then there were angry accusations. Crassus was livid, and one after another of his capable men went into battle, which lasted for an entire hour, but he still couldn't deal with a single enemy ship, causing Crassus to lose so many elite soldiers. If this spread, It would be a shame for the Roman navy to go out. He now wants to take a closer look at how the Qin Army¡¯s weapons are made, and how the Qin Army soldiers on the enemy ship survived the burning ship. Aren¡¯t they afraid of being burned to death? die! For soldiers on the battlefield, it is a common occurrence and happens almost every day. However, no one except God knows whose head the word death will fall on. The cruelty of the subsequent battle was revealed from the beginning. The naked Roman soldiers screamed strangely and jumped over from the springboard one by one. Thinking of their great achievements, they fought fiercely with the remaining Qin soldiers on the tail ship. Yan Hui gathered together the twenty-one soldiers and oarsmen who were still alive on the stern ship. Among them, there were Qin people from the east, Jews and Assyrians recruited locally in the Mediterranean area. No matter what their backgrounds or identities were, , now, they are back to back, trusting their companions, and pointing their swords at the enemy. At the bow of the tail ship, a thin Qin army crossbowman abandoned his crossbow without a crossbow and held a broken sword in his hand. In front of him were two ferocious-looking Roman soldiers. In the roundabout area, the defensive formation formed by Yan Hui had long been in pieces, and the divided Qin soldiers continued to fight with fearless courage. The crossbowman retreated slowly, his back was very close to the fire. The Romans smiled ferociously. Obviously, they hoped that the vulnerable Qin soldier would escape into the fire by himself. In that case, they would You can safely and boldly watch a performance of burning people alive. "Haha, the Qin people are indeed cowards, he escaped!" Amidst the triumphant shouts of the Roman soldiers, the Qin army's crossbowmen accidentally entered the fire scene as they expected. The fire burned the armor without mercy. Immediately turned the Qin soldier into a burning man. However, the thin and thin Qin soldier who was burned by the fire did not scream. His footsteps suddenly started to move quickly, and his target went straight to the two Roman opponents. PS: This chapter makes up for the sin of missing and delaying updates a while ago.
