Corpses were neatly placed on both sides of the road. They were all shot and killed by the opponent's attack. There were also a few broken corpses. Obviously these were caused by explosive weapons. Tian Heng turned his head to look at those corpses.
And from time to time, there are still some burnt things coming from the air. Those are the smell of burnt baggage from the Qi army. Just burn them all
"Oh..." Tian Heng took a look at this moment and sighed.
"My lord, why are you sighing?" A counselor at the side said at this time
"The Qin people said they would not participate in the war, but their people in the rear caused a lot of damage to our army. If our army hadn't been in a hurry to withdraw, I'm afraid there would be no such consequences," Tian Heng said.
"We will also send a large army to completely exterminate these Qin people," Tian Heng said.
Tian Heng still knows about the fact that the Qi army's logistics supply convoys are often attacked. They know that the Qin people sent troops to do it, but there is no diplomatic channel between Qi and Qin. The Qi people can only repeatedly send troops to strangle, but the Qi army uses troops As there are more and more places, they can't maintain too many troops in certain places
Such repetitions have caused great logistical difficulties for the Qi army, but the strange thing is that Qin does not pay much attention to the existence of this army. They think that the war between the people of Qi and the people of Yan and Zhao cannot be brought to the fore. The people of Qin think that it is only their own. War can be regarded as an advanced war, not only with advanced infantry weapons, but also with the participation of a large number of artillery, airships and aircraft. This scale of war is something that no country can have. The people of Qin have always despised wars that don't even have a few advanced artillery pieces
Regarding the existence of guerrilla troops, the Qin people pretended not to see them. Some people knew that such troops existed, but they believed that the Qin people did not clearly participate in the war.
Participating in the war and intervening in the war are two different things. Qin people have never participated in the war, but only intervened in the war. Intervention includes limited military battles and a large amount of supplies. The money is too much. Qin's current economic situation simply cannot afford it. This is also an important reason why Qin people are unwilling to participate in the war.
People of Qin need money to fight wars. Now wars are different from before. People of Qin need not only sufficient food and population, but sufficient funds and money to be able to start wars and stop wars.
When Tian Heng's carriage was moving forward, the wheel on the right pressed a thin line. This thin line cannot be seen by ordinary people because he was well concealed by the weeds.
"Boom" a loud explosion
The counselor sitting on the right side was hit by a flying stone and the entire carriage was knocked down by the huge air wave.
"Hoo hoo" the horse screamed
Tian Heng's carriage was overturned on the spot, and the horses were also knocked to the ground, and the smoke of gunpowder was everywhere.
Just after the "Princess" explosion, some soldiers were still lying on the ground. They were frightened by the sudden explosion, and some soldiers were even kept standing. Obviously, he didn't expect all this to happen.
This is a guerrilla soldier of the Qin State who was disguised as a trip mine. The difference is that the soldiers of the Qin Army used detonators, which are only available to the Qin State Engineers. Set up the detonating materials.
Guerrilla cavalry usually use this trick to deal with the Huns. They will set up some cattle, sheep, or some Hun women and these explosives. When the Huns see these things, they will definitely go forward to snatch them, and as soon as they move the explosives, they will explode on the spot. the Huns killed
Especially the Huns who lacked supplies, they set this trap for the Qin people every time they were recruited, they were too short of supplies and could not be effectively dismantled
Now the rangers of the Qin State are using the tricks they used against the Huns to deal with the Qi people. They use some unburned materials as bait or directly set explosives on the road for blasting.
Originally, these explosives were cleaned up, but for some reason, the explosives were not cleaned up, because once the army passed by, they could easily suffer huge losses from the explosion, but I don’t know why Tian Heng’s carriage happened to pass by here, and then he was flown here. What a coincidence that the dynamite overturned the carriage
1358 No Scouting Report
"We have to find a place of our own. Let us have enough time to stay. We now have a merchant ship. We need to have our own harbor." The captain looked around with a telescope and said.Surrounded by the vast sea.On the edge of the sky.Where human vision is at the limit.It seems to be able to see the coastline.
Only a compass.Nautical maps are also very simple to make.It's so simple that you can't see your position at all.The second lieutenant and the captain with some experience can know some of his position with the help of the stars in the sky.But in nautical technology.They are still missing something important.for example.Nautical chart with latitude and longitude.nautical clock.A sextant for measuring latitude and longitude.These are important technical equipment for long-distance voyages.The Chu State Navy still lacks such equipment.
For this reason, merchant ships and warships will choose to sail along the coastline not far away.that's why.On the vast sea.There will be warships constantly carrying out robbery activities.the reason is simple.It is because the routes are too densely arranged not far from the coastline.These are all caused by the technical reserves in place.Update as soon as possible
The vast sea is extremely wide.There are only a few waterways.Combat behavior among merchant ships will continue.
"We need to find a port of anchorage. And establish our stronghold there." The captain said at this time.
"Captain. I don't know if I have an idea or not." The first mate said at this time.
"Speak." The captain of the warship said at this time holding a telescope to check the surrounding situation.
"According to what we have discovered recently, it may be impossible for us to find a natural port. Especially the places close to the state of Chu. These places are still unfamiliar to us," the first officer said.
"The most important thing. These places. Most of them are occupied by our immigrants. They will not accept us," said the first officer.
"What do you mean?" asked the captain at this time.
"What I mean is. Please come to more and faster chapters. We might as well find a place. Land. Then attack the nearby immigration stronghold. Then. Let's do other things." At this time, the first officer said.
When the captain heard this, he shook his head negatively.
"Our strength is still very weak. You know. On such a large ocean, we have only one warship. If we attack rashly at this time, it will cause serious losses to us. We may not be able to win the opponent's stronghold. The opponent They have an advantage in numbers. You must know that each of their strongholds has a considerable number of mercenaries. Look at our manpower. The total does not exceed 200. Our advantage is at sea. Not on land." The captain analyzed at this time .
"We give up our superiority at sea. And fight those on land. Obviously we will be at an absolute disadvantage. What we have to do now is to establish a stronghold. Not. Fight them. Now is not the time. Maybe some time in the future One day we will do this. But definitely not now." The captain put down the binoculars in his hand at this time. . .Then he gestured with his hands.
"Yes. Captain." The first officer nodded in approval.
"Okay. Now we need to find a place of our own to build our berthing port. Drifting at sea for such a long time is not an option." The captain issued an order at this time.
The boat was quickly approaching the shoreline.Warships after a battle need to find a place to replenish their supplies.Especially fresh water.and other supplies.
"There is a coast ahead." A sailor on the watchtower shouted loudly.
"It's getting late. We need to dock at night today," said the captain.
"We need a port to anchor too much." The captain then looked up at the sky.The sky is clear though.But the captain knew.Such weather usually does not last long.
The ship changes course.The coast is entering the sight of all crew members bit by bit.
"We are going to land 50 people first. More and faster chapters are coming. We can provide you with limited artillery cover. The rest is up to you." The captain said to the first officer at this time.And the other crew members said.
And those crew members are fully armed.They had bayonets attached to their rifles.Bullet belts hung all over his body.The gondola is slowly lowering down at this time.
The crew is in the final stages of preparation.
"Your task is very simple. It is to ensure that our ships can dock safely. I will order our artillery to provide enough cover. Understand." At this time.Said the captain to the mate.
"Understood. Captain. I will take our people to build a safe landing beach." The first officer said at this time.
"I will land on the beach when the second wave of ships lands. At the same time. Our ships will try to get as close to the coastline as possible to provide you with enough artillery support," the captain said.
"I understand the captain," said the mate.
"Okay...it's time for us to act." The first officer said at this time.
"Okay. Good luck to you." The captain said at this time.
"We will," said the mate.
"Okay. Brothers. Get on board." The first officer said at this time.
"Action. Action." The first officer said loudly at this time.
The crew waved an arm this time.at the same time.Others quickly lowered and lowered their rifles from the ropes to the boats.
The first mate was the last to arrive on board. "Go ahead." The first mate shouted loudly.
"Clatter." The ship kept approaching the coastline at this time.
At this time, the captain took a telescope to check the situation in the distance.Something slightly dangerous appears.The captain would immediately give the order to fire.
