Chapter Twenty-Four: Pretending to be the Wind
As five hundred armored Shushan guards rushed into the battlefield, the scene suddenly became cold. Wang Li stood aside, and he could feel the cold breath exhaled from the captain's nose.
"Captain Sheng Yong, the other party is not good, and the number is at least eight hundred."
Sheng Yong nodded, "It seems that we are the main force of the other party, one is not good, I am afraid that all of us will have to fold here." ”
Sheng Yong pulled out the ring-headed long knife at his waist, this kind of standard long knife flowing from the workshop in the northwest of Yingziyi, which had become the favorite standard saber of the Great Qin officers.
He raised the long knife in his hand and pointed forward. The slender blade body exuded a cold light, just like the devouring luster in Sheng Yong's eyes at the moment.
"Brothers, we're on the stubble. If anyone survives this time, don't forget to take care of the other brothers' families. Sheng Yong shouted and said proudly.
"Drink! Drink! Drink! ”
If it was an ordinary team, after listening to Sheng Yong's words, I was afraid that I would throw the weapon in my hand forward and raise my hand to surrender, but the morale of this team was getting higher and higher.
In Wang Li's opinion, Sheng Yong is undoubtedly a rough man, but this rough man can best win the hearts and trust of the soldiers.
Sheng Yong turned his head and whispered to Wang Li: "Later, I will command the team to open an opening in the local encirclement, and you take the opportunity to escape." ”
"The soldiers are all here, how can I escape?" Wang Li said a little stubbornly.
"You melon baby, you have to leave if you don't want to go, this is an order." Sheng Yong said viciously.
"You derelict in your duties, and you still talk to me about military law." Wang Li said disdainfully. Looking at Wang Li's current appearance, it is completely a copy of Sheng Yong's just now.
The battle on the front line has become more and more tense, and dozens of Shushan guards have approached the shield array of the Qin army. Sheng Yong didn't have the energy to take care of Wang Li anymore, he snorted loudly and said angrily, "Whatever you want." ”
The spears of the guards of Shushan are sharp and slender, and the long spear body is made of a kind of green bamboo in the mountains, which is slender and flexible. Even Changge, in the hands of the soldiers of the Qin army, could not cut off the spear. And above the tip of the spear, there were purple-black iron spots, which seemed to have been quenched with poison.
This kind of weapon is very annoying, because as long as it is cut a little, then the soldiers of the Qin army are afraid that they will immediately lose their combat effectiveness.
The soldiers of the Qin army were already small, and if they continued to fight according to this style of play, it would be a matter of time before they failed.
"Shoot!" Sheng Yong commanded more than 30 crossbowmen in front of him to fire a volley at the place with greater pressure in front, instantly slowing down the enemy's offensive.
Your crossbows are extremely powerful, but they can't withstand the tide of attack. Twenty paces away, the number of more than 100 infantry with shields gradually decreased, and many of them were in the chaos, drowned in the spears of the guards of Shushan, and many never got up again.
"It's time to retreat." Sheng Yong muttered in his mouth. The voice was so small that only Wang Li on the side could hear it.
The two centurions under Sheng Yong had all moved forward to the front line. Those who can be hundreds of commanders in the Qin army are all warriors who are invincible to a hundred. But even that can't change the situation of the trough cake.
If the shield soldiers in front of you are all folded cleanly, then the crossbowmen in the rear and a heavy soldier with short blades will not be able to resist the opponent's round of impact at all.
Seeing that he was gradually defeated, Sheng Yong thought of retreating.
But where do you go back?
The number of the other side was at least four or five times that of his side, and all of them were combatants, and there was no drag of heavy troops like the Qin army.
On the battlefield, the sound of swords was in a hurry, and Sheng Yong was keenly aware of a weak point of the enemy army. It was just a tiny flaw, fleeting.
"Over there." Sheng Yong's long knife pointed out, and more than 30 crossbowmen turned their crossbows, and there were several more rounds of salvos. Immediately afterwards, Sheng Yong personally took a few guards around him and rushed to the left side.
"Let's go!"
Behind Sheng Yong, Wang Li and a hundred baggage soldiers, and more than 30 crossbowmen rushed out in an orderly manner. The shield soldiers on the oblique side also began to change directions, and while resisting the guards of Shushan, they slowly moved closer to the direction of Sheng Yong.
"My lord, the Qin army is about to break out of our encirclement." At the same time as his subordinates made a statement, Yu Ziqi could clearly see that a hundred and ten steps away, the brave leader of the Qin army with his men rushed away from his own front. The shield soldiers of the Qin army pressed the formation in the rear, while their crossbowmen fired at their own men and horses from time to time, and gradually withdrew outside the encirclement network.
"Finally hooked?" Yu Ziqi sneered, the Qin army array is rigorous, the soldiers are well-trained, if he continues to attack, although he can break the Qin army, but the cost of his own side losses is also relatively large.
In this battle, Shushan had a great advantage, but compared with the Qin army that invaded Shushan this time, Yu Ziqi thought that his side could not have any advantage at all, at least in terms of numbers.
Minimize losses, preserve strength, and at the same time try to consume the enemy's strength, and improve the quality of your own soldiers in the battle. This is what Yu Ziqi thinks at this moment.
"Ahead is the valley, the mountain road is narrow, the terrain is complicated, the Qin army is not familiar with the terrain, we take the small road, we will definitely be able to surround them before they enter the valley. At that time, the Qin army will no longer have the strength to turn over. ”
"Yes!"
"The people of Shushan are very strange." Walking on the mountain road, Sheng Yong said.
"They didn't catch up, what was the idea?" Wang Li said.
The sun had sunk below the horizon, and darkness had fallen upon the earth again. Wang Li looked at the somewhat tired soldiers around him, and suddenly felt a sense of desolation in his heart.
"The mountain road here is difficult, there are many forks in the road, and it is not surprising that the people of Shushan rushed to the front of us in the next moment." Sheng Yong said, helping a wounded soldier up a steep slope.
"There are not many antidote herbs we carry, and they can't withstand long-term consumption, is there a way for Brother Sheng to get out?" Unconsciously, Wang Li's name for Sheng Yong has changed.
"What's the solution? The Hayabusa and three scouts who asked for help had already been dispatched, so I don't know if our reinforcements will be able to come in time! Sheng Yong sighed slightly and said
The road ahead is difficult to understand, and his team is already in a difficult situation. I don't know when, there will be a dark arrow.
In such an environment, it is a great test for the psychological and physical tests of soldiers.
It is Sheng Yong himself, who seems to be holding a breath of air in his heart, and it is rare to stretch. Sheng Yong suppressed the irritability in his heart, the more dangerous this situation is, the more an excellent general can control his temperament.
"Let's go! Whether he can escape his life this time depends on the will of God. ”
It's a pity that the luck of Sheng Yong and the others doesn't seem to be very good.
Hundreds of Qin soldiers walked in the mountains all night, and in the early hours of the morning, before entering the valley, they encountered the men and horses of Shu Mountain again.
The valley is a narrow valley road with not very high rock walls on both sides, and mountain climbers can even walk on it with their bare hands. Before the valley falls, there is a gentle slope with several small roads connecting here. The people of Shushan took advantage of the fact that before the Qin army entered the valley, they came out of the path and surrounded them.
Nearly a hundred shield soldiers of the Qin army surrounded the front of the array, with the baggage soldiers behind them and the crossbowmen behind the baggage soldiers. Hundreds of people formed a circle.
Sheng Yong, Wang Li is standing at the core of the formation, the people of Shushan have not attacked for a while, I don't know what the leader of the other party is thinking?
Yu Ziqi looked at the Qin army in front of him and was surprised.
Is this the Imperial army that has annexed the world? The hundreds of people in front of them were obviously the epitome of this huge army, but what they did had greatly exceeded the expectations of Yu Zi Period.
Just after a big battle, and after walking all night in the cold and rugged mountain roads, until now, Qin Jun's face still has a fighting spirit.
Yu Ziqi began to read military books since he was a child, and he knew the importance of morale to an army on the battlefield.
Therefore, in order to destroy the enemy's army, it is necessary to first weaken the enemy's morale.
Yu Ziqi deliberately let the Qin army go on the battlefield yesterday, just to let them gradually lose their morale in the harsh environment of the mountains.
But the strength of the Qin army far exceeded his expectations. He's forget it! The fierce battle intent on the faces of the Imperial soldiers was definitely not disguised. Even if the victory is already in hand, there is still a chill in Yu Ziqi's heart.
If the Qin army that came to attack Shushan was like the Qin soldiers in front of them, then Shushan, is there any possibility of survival?
On the battlefield, in the circular array of the Qin army, Sheng Yong raised the long knife in his waist, aimed it in the direction of Taniguchi, and laughed: "Fortunately, it's not a Jedi yet, there is still a glimmer of life." Get out of the way. ”
Sheng Yong's actions are all in the eyes of Yu Ziqi. The Qin army array, which was still circular, began to change formations. The center of the tight circle array revealed a gap and turned into two semicircles. Sheng Yong grabbed the long knife and walked out of the Qin army's array. Behind him, there were more than a dozen strong warriors, including the two centurions of the Qin army, most of them were officers such as Wu Chang and Shi Chang.
"Did you do it?" Yu Ziqi smiled, and at the entrance of the valley, he placed two hundred guards of Shu Mountain, which was almost the same as the total strength of the current Qin army.
The cold wind blew out of the valley, and Sheng Yong roared and said to the officer who followed him.
"As the generals of Great Qin, we should open the way for the army and leave a way for our soldiers to survive. Ladies and gentlemen, are you afraid? ”
"I'm afraid his grandmother is a bear. Sheng Yong, what kind of article are you writing as a ****, are you fucking this piece of material? them ****. ”
A centurion behind Sheng Yong suddenly shouted.
Hearing his subordinates scolding like this, Sheng Yong laughed instead of being angry, and said, "Well said, do their ****." ”
"them ****!"
Although these Qin army officers who were born in peasant households were vulgar, the surging pride made the people of Shushan frightened.
The heroes cherished each other, and at this moment, a trace of remorse suddenly arose in Yu Ziqi's heart. Perhaps, they should have been eliminated last night. (To be continued.) )
