172 The ambush is blocked

"Fire!"

With Baili Meng's order, in an instant, with the rising sun, in the weeds and muddy ditches on both sides of the post road, which were only more than two hundred meters away, nearly a thousand assault rifles suddenly exploded, and almost in a short moment, the leading Zhao army charioteers were wiped out.

Immediately afterwards, on both sides of the long post road, countless crossbow arrows were thrown, and the vanguard of the Zhao army suffered a devastating blow, and the cavalry of the Zhao army in the panic broke through to both sides, and some tried to rush forward over the chariots blocking the road, and many turned around and wanted to escape, completely chaotic into a pot of porridge.

As the gunfire waned, it died out.

A powerful cavalry force of tens of thousands of people suddenly slaughtered out of the slope and directly plunged into the open space between the cavalry and infantry of the Zhao army, completely separating the 100,000 army of the Zhao State and dividing it into two.

"Ambush, ambush among us! It's the cavalry, the cavalry of the Qin army! ”

"Panic what! Rush me! It must have been their scouts who spotted us and made an improvisation! Don't be afraid! Rush me, crush them, and rescue Binh Duong City! ”

In the face of the panic of the soldiers, he raised his arms and shouted, although he didn't expect that the Qin army would actually make an ambush in advance, but first of all, he couldn't panic, and he definitely couldn't let the soldiers see his judgment mistakes, he had to be calm!

I have to say that Hu Xuan's shouting did have a great effect, and the more than 80,000 foot soldiers of the Zhao army, who were still at a loss in a panic, instantly stabilized their minds and began to rush towards the Qin cavalry.

But is it true that the Qin army only has more than 10,000 people?

Of course not!

Because the Zhao army led by Hu Yu was not aware of the Qin army's ambush before, and the marching plan adopted was completely a long snake formation, so that the pocket mouth of Bailimeng's original pocket could not completely wrap the Zhao army, so Bailimeng temporarily changed his strategy and did not order an ambush attack against the main foot soldiers of the Zhao army, but waited.

They were waiting for the cavalry of these two armies to go around to the rear of the infantry brigade of the Zhao army, complete the encirclement of the Zhao army, and completely tighten their pockets!

Finally, just when the cavalry of the 38th Army had just rammed into the main formation of the Zhao army, the other two armies responsible for tightening the pockets were finally in place, and the Qin army completely let go of its hands and launched a full-scale attack!

In the face of the Qin army foot soldiers who suddenly appeared from all directions, as well as the 20,000 Qin army cavalry who appeared behind him inexplicably and were charging at him, his expression could no longer be confident.

"Quick, array! Array! Block them! ”

As the main force of the Zhao State, and there have been a lot of fierce battles, these soldiers under Hu Yu are not vegetarians.

With the continuous issuance of Hu Xuan's orders, except for the cavalry and charioteers who had lost contact and could basically be counted as all dead, the remaining Zhao soldiers immediately formed a formation centered on Hu Xuan.

The shield wall was built in the left and right directions at the same time, and then the soldiers holding the halberd hid behind the shield wall, and directly stretched out various weapons up to seven meters long through the gap in the shield wall!

By the time the cavalry of the Qin army in the rear rushed to the tail of the Zhao army, it had become a hedgehog-like existence, and the cavalry could not find a breakthrough at all.

Seeing that the cavalry of the Qin army stopped, the foot soldiers of the Qin army on the left and right also slowed down their pace and did not dare to rush into battle, and laughed!

The Qin army, the so-called army of tigers and wolves, is nothing more than that!

It didn't take a single soldier to solve the threat of the Qin army in three directions, and Hu Yu directly decided to take the means of breaking the wrist of a strong man, forcibly abandoning the tens of thousands of Zhao army foot soldiers who had been fighting with the first cavalry division of the Qin 38th Army, and once again erected an impregnable shield wall in their rear!

"Humph! Just because this is worthy of being my opponent? ”

The overall situation was decided, Hu Yu laughed insolently, and immediately began to order the archers to step forward and prepare, and once the Qin army tried to charge, he would immediately inflict a devastating blow on the Qin army with overwhelming arrows.

......

"Crossbowman, up!"

Soon, those Zhao cavalry and the tens of thousands of foot soldiers who were separated had been slaughtered, but in the face of the remaining 70,000 main forces of the Zhao army that had been retracted into the turtle shell, Baili Meng was also a little helpless for a while.

If it was a battle of life and death, he would have ordered the cavalry to forcibly charge into battle, and after paying a certain number of casualties, as long as even one cavalry crossed the shield wall of the Zhao army, the turtle shell of the Zhao army would be completely shattered immediately.

However, at the moment, Baili Meng does not dare to do this, the troops in his hands are limited, although it is true that he is five or five with this Zhao army, but this is only part of the main force mobilized by the Zhao army this time, not all!

If the cost of destroying this Zhao army is too heavy, then in the face of most of the remaining main forces of the Zhao army that have been assembled in other directions and led by Pang Nuan himself, the Qin army will have no power to fight back.

Suppressed with crossbow arrows?

Baili Meng knew that it was not feasible, Zhao Jun's shields were too dense, and it was a plain area, and Zhao Jun also had a large number of archers, and the two sides shot at each other, and no one could help anyone.

Let the Separate Regiment go and solve these shields with automatic rifles?

These automatic rifles are indeed powerful, but trying to penetrate the shield beyond the range of the bow and arrow is simply wishful thinking.

What's more, even if you can penetrate the shield and wound and kill some Zhao soldiers, what can you do?

In this way, it is just a temporary panic for Zhao Jun, because the last thing Zhao Jun lacks is people, and what Baili Meng lacks most is bullets, this is not an equal war of attrition at all.

"The last general will see the general!"

Just when Baili Meng was thinking hard and couldn't find a way to deal with it, Huan Qi arrived!

Not only did Huan Qi arrive, but Huan Qi also brought most of the main forces of the First Army and the Second Army in the direction of Wucheng, which were supposed to be attacking Pingyang City at this moment, as well as all the trebuchets, bed crossbows, shield carts, and rushing carts!

"I didn't expect it to be him!"

Seeing the tortoise shell of Zhao Jun in the distance, Huan Qi was not too surprised.

He had already learned through LΓΌ Buwei's insiders that the general in charge of leading the troops of the Zhao army this time was Pang Nuan, and the deputy marshal was Hu Nuan, who had followed Lian Po for a long time before.

According to Huan Qi's understanding, this person has been following Lian Po for a long time, and he didn't learn Lian Po's other abilities, but he learned a lot of life-saving skills.

Therefore, after Huan Qi learned that the main force of the Zhao army was about to arrive, he immediately made arrangements, and after leaving a part of the troops to continue to put pressure on Pingyang and Wucheng to ensure that the Zhao army in these two cities would not leave the city, he immediately pulled over a large number of things used for siege.

Obviously, Huan Qi has calculated correctly, and this time, I am afraid that he is going to make a mistake, from today onwards, on the land of China, his turtle shell array, I am afraid that he will never see it again.
