After a while, Qi Jun, who was resting, heard an unusual sound, and they all stood up vigilantly, turned over and clenched the weapons in their hands. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Before they could see where the enemy was coming from, they heard the footsteps of many archers lined up, and then there was the sound of bows and strings, and Shen Zhao shouted: "There is an ambush!" Quickly retreat into the ditch and protect the grain and grass! After that, he turned his horse's head and ran desperately to the spirit worm ditch, and the Qi soldiers followed behind the main general, throwing all their weapons away, and they only had to flee with their heads in their hands.

Although there are archers who are overwhelmingly releasing arrows, but because there are many strange rocks here, most of the arrows shot are blocked, and it is difficult to see the target clearly in the dark, so few Qi troops were shot, and most of them escaped into the spirit worm ditch smoothly.

Bao Huai was so angry when he saw it, he shouted: "Chase after them, don't let them run away!" ”

The adjutant general next to him persuaded: "General, this place is steep and steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, we must not fall into the ambush of the Qi army!" ”

Bao Huai just heard General Wei shouting "grain and grass baggage", his heart seemed to be scratched by a cat, he originally thought it was just grain and grass but did not expect that there was also baggage, Qi country's weapons are the first in the world, if you can capture some, it will be like a tiger when attacking the city and plundering the land.

Thinking of this, where could he listen to the words of the deputy general, he just said: "Don't worry too much, this spirit worm ditch is only narrow in the middle, and the exit entrance is very spacious, if there is an ambush, you can just exit." ”

Bao Huai led his troops into the Spirit Worm Ditch, and at the beginning he was still cautious, slowing down, and ready to retreat at any time.

Why is it that this spirit worm ditch is too dim, and I can't see anything clearly, I only heard Qi Jun shouting loudly in front: "We have few people, we can't get the grain and grass, so we stay, it's important to escape!" Then I listened to the chaotic running of horses ahead, mixed with the creaking of rolling wooden wheels.

As soon as he heard that the grain, grass and baggage had been left behind by the Qi army, Bao Huai's eyes began to be bloodshot, and he ordered the troops to move forward quickly, lighting up the torches and illuminating the surroundings to see where the Qi army had hidden the grain trucks.

Qi Jun was waiting for this opportunity, originally in the spirit worm ditch in the middle of the night, it was dark, how could we tell the enemy from me? The rebels put torches on point, and the positions of the two camps were immediately revealed.

Suddenly, on the stone hill next to the Spirit Worm Ditch, the war drums beat up, and the Qi army was in a team of five people, standing on both sides of the cliff, and the commander gave an order, and the soldiers threw the wood and boulder that had just been prepared to the side of the torch.

For a while, screams and voices broke out in the ranks of the rebels, and the ranks were in chaos.

Bao Huai knew about the plan and ordered the team to retreat quickly, but how could the Qi army give them such an opportunity? The Qi army blocked the exit with hay and branches, and when they saw that the rebels wanted to withdraw, the Qi army immediately set the hay on fire, and the Spirit Worm Ditch soon became smoky.

The rebels near the exit were dazzled by the smoke and could not see the target clearly, thinking that the Qi army was guarding the exit and hiding their bodies with smoke as cover, so the rebel general ordered to release arrows at the exit, hoping to shoot the Qi army holding the ditch mouth and facilitate the escape.

The Qi army had already taken refuge by this time, and the rebels were shooting arrows through the smoke at the huge pile of hay and branches, until the arrows were exhausted. Seeing that there was no movement ahead, the rebels thought that the Qi army had been killed by an arrow, so they were relieved and boldly rushed towards the ditch.

When the Qi army heard the raining arrows in it, they knew that the rebels were ready to attack, so they took out a big bow from behind them, drew the bow and arrows, and returned it to him in the way of others.

The rebels rushed out, but they didn't know that a field of sharp arrows was overwhelming, and the soldiers who rushed in front fell one after another, and those behind saw that the situation was not good, and turned around and ran back.

But it happened too suddenly, the front retreated, and the back didn't know why they were still rushing forward, the end of the head was panicked, trampling on each other, and there were countless dead and wounded. Even Bao Huai was knocked off his horse by the rebels, trampling the running crowd to death......

The battle lasted about two hours, and the rebels were almost wiped out, with only a few hundred men breaking out of the encirclement and escaping. Shen Zhao stood at the mouth of the Spirit Worm Ditch, looked at their distant backs, and ordered the deputy general to lead a team of men and horses to chase them, but not to catch them, just make a movement and let them run faster. Because, he also needs these people to go to the rebel camp to report the news of this defeat.

The sky was gradually bright, Shen Zhao led the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, counted the captured materials, and returned to the camp with these things to resume his life.

It is said that Fan Qiu, the chief general of the rebel army, arrived at the main gate of Fuluo City late, and before he could line up, he saw a group of cavalry covered in blood running over, and they saw Fan Qiuchi telling him about the situation last night. Fan Qiuchi listened, his face turned pale, his eyes were dark, and he almost fainted. The people next to him hurriedly supported him, and the first thing he said when he came back to his senses was: "Quick, quick, withdraw to Cliff City!" ”

Returning to Cliff City, Fan Qiuchi ordered the city gate to be closed tightly, and the heavy troops held on to the outer city to prevent a sudden attack by the Qi army. He quickly returned to the mansion with his entourage, and as soon as he entered the hall, he collapsed on the chair before he took off his armor, and said in his heart: "It's over, it's over, it's not long......"

The main general is so sluggish, not to mention the subordinates, one by one depressed and languishing.

Fan Qiuchi was already upset, looked left and right, and saw that the soldiers were all like this, and he was even more angry, and slapped the table: "Bastard thing, is Lao Tzu raising you just to see these crying faces?" The more he scolded his subordinates, the more frightened he became, and his spirit became more and more wilted, and he yelled angrily when he saw it: "If you do this again, pull you out to sacrifice the flag!" ”

At this moment, someone next to him stood up and arched his hand: "General, don't worry, I have a plan to solve the dilemma at this time!" ”

When Fan Qiuchi heard this, he turned his head and said, "Old General Wan, please speak!" ”

Wan Jinjin said: "The annihilation of the entire army of Baohuai was something we did not expect, and the morale of the whole army suffered a heavy setback. ”

As a result, how could Fan Qiuchi not know, his brows furrowed even tighter.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Wan Qijin leaned over and said, "The general might as well be like this...... and whispered a few words in his ear.

Fan Qiuchi's face instantly brightened, but soon the clouds pressed again, and he turned around and said, "This is afraid of damaging the military prestige, right?" ”

Seeing that he couldn't make up his mind, Wan Qijin said: "When this life is hanging by a thread, you can only use extraordinary means." ”

Hearing this, Fan Qiuchi had no scruples, and he said to the left and right: "Pass the order, since the start of the army, all the soldiers have sacrificed their lives and forgotten death, and the officers and soldiers who are specially allowed to garrison the city take what they need in the city, regardless of the size of the rank, take more and get more!" ”

Fan Qiuchi was quite strict in governing the army, and after occupying four cities, he got along well with the people of the city, which was one of the reasons why his power could grow rapidly.
