"Quick, go tell the general, there is an ambush, there is an ambush!"

After receiving the order, the vanguard of the Zhao army, which immediately went out to pursue the vanguard of the Qin army that had inexplicably turned around and fled, suddenly found that he had stepped into the ambush circle of the Qin army when he chased it out for fifteen miles and was about to catch up with those Qin troops.

Looking at the overwhelming arrows falling from the sky, the vanguard general of Zhao State hurriedly ordered people to go back and tell Pang Nuan that the Qin army had an ambush while directing the battle.

Because the vanguard general rushed too fast, he was seriously out of touch with the main force of the Zhao army, and by the time Pang Nuan received the news, all the four thousand vanguard troops of the Zhao army had already been killed.

"Huan Qi! I'm going to let you die without a place to bury!" ”

As a Qin general who was once captured alive by Li Mu, he first killed Hu Yu and his 100,000 army, and now set up an ambush pit for his 4,000 pioneers.

But anger did not break Pang Nuan's sanity, and he immediately ordered his troops to slow down their march and constantly adjust their formations during the movement, so that they could be ready for a decisive battle with the main force of the Qin army at any time.

At the same time, in order to prevent being ambushed by the Qin army again, he also greatly increased the number of scouts.

From the adjustment of the deployment to the initial results, it only took one hour!

An hour later, Pang Nuan received the latest information, the Qin army was adjusting its deployment, and as for every step of the Qin army's adjustment, it was watched by the scouts from a distance and sent to Pang Nuan.

On the front of the two armies, the Qin army set up dozens of crossbow arrays, each of which was twenty or thirty paces apart, and each crossbowman was protected by a soldier holding a shield.

At first glance, this is a rather puzzling plan for the allocation of troops, because according to this plan, whether it is chariots, cavalry, or infantry, it is completely possible to destroy these Qin arrays with a single charge.

Of course, Pang Nuan knew that Huan Qi would not be so stupid, because his scouts had already discovered that the main force of the Qin army was moving towards both sides of this Dao array, and it was obvious that the Qin army was planning to deceive the Zhao army into rushing into the encirclement of the main force of the Qin army at the cost of the death of all these crossbowmen.

In response, Pang Nuan decisively adjusted the deployment again, from the whole army advancing in unison to the two flanks forward.

Before the two armies were in full swing, the clash between the commanders of the two armies had already been staged.

The Zhao army had scouts, and the Qin army also had scouts, and in response, Pang Nuan's Qin army commander 'Huan Qi' immediately adjusted his combat deployment, and the crossbowman array was split in two from the middle, directly giving way to the middle.

Not long after the Qin army had just finished adjusting here, Zhao Jun had already appeared in the field of vision of the Qin army's crossbowmen.

Because Pang Nuan was worried about the Qin army's ambush, the speed of the Zhao army's advance was not fast, it was steady and steady, and the formation was extremely tight.

The array of crossbowmen of the Qin army was too far apart, so the arrows fired in the first round were very sparse, and there were basically no casualties to the Zhao army.

After the first row of crossbowmen fired ten arrows in a row, they quickly retreated close to the second row of crossbowmen, and at this moment, Zhao Jun had also entered the range of the second column of crossbowmen.

The two columns of crossbowmen fired a salvo, and then retreated, retreated to the third column of crossbowmen, and fired another volley.

On the surface, the Zhao army walked unhurriedly, and the Qin army retreated unhurriedly, but in fact, the casualties of the Zhao army were increasing, and the Qin army's arrow array was also constantly compressed.

However, in the face of the main force of the Qin army that did not know where to ambush, Pang Nuan did not dare to order a charge, so he could only advance slowly under the rain of arrows.

Finally, after the Qin army's crossbowman array was continuously compressed by more than a dozen columns, the casualties no longer allowed Pang Nuan to advance so slowly, and he had to order the cavalry and charioteers to charge!

However, just as the Zhao army began to charge, the Qin army, which was at the forefront, suddenly began to retreat directly, and the rest of the Qin army's crossbowman array also began to quickly throw after the Zhao army entered the firing range, and the projectile ended decisively retreating.

It's just that their retreat is not to compress the formation as before, but to retreat in earnest, until they retreat to the rear of the last column of crossbowmen, and then arrange a new bow and crossbow array.

"It's a trap!"

suddenly realized that the Qin army completely adopted the tactics of flying kites thoroughly, and if it continued like this, I was afraid that before the main forces of the two armies faced off, the troops in their hands would be shot to death by the Qin army.

"Order, the whole army charges!"

Just after braving the heavy rain of arrows and paying heavy casualties, after the cavalry troops of Zhao State, who had finally rushed in front of the Qin army, fought with the Qin army foot soldiers who had been waiting for a long time with shields and long swords, Pang Nuan finally gave the order for the whole army to charge.

However, with the whole Zhao army charging, the Qin army, after eliminating the last part of the Zhao cavalry, immediately turned on the escape mode, and no longer cared about the main force of the Zhao army that had not yet caught up.

It wasn't until the Qin army once again distanced itself from the main force of the Zhao army that they stopped again, and the crossbowmen fired another volley to suppress the Zhao army's charge.

After a volley, run, stop, shoot again!

"Bastard! Shameless! ”

Without a cavalry unit that could move quickly, Pang Nuan could only watch the Qin soldiers who were light and simple keep flying kites, and he couldn't help but scold angrily, but there was nothing he could do.

"Stop! Don't chase it! ”

No matter how much he chased, he couldn't catch up, and in desperation, Pang Nuan could only order all the troops to stop, but he didn't expect him to stop, and the Qin army immediately stopped, and then he didn't stop the arrows.

The casualties of the Zhao army continued not to decrease as a result.

Finally, as the sun gradually sank in the west, and the Qin army's crossbowmen were no longer effective, Pang Nuan waited for a turnaround.

At night, the Qin army stopped shooting, and the Zhao army also camped in place and lit a bonfire.

"Be fast, be hidden!"

Bonfire? Camp?

It's all an illusion!

was flewing a kite during the day, suffering heavy casualties, and finally managed to survive until night, how could Pang Nuan let go of such an opportunity?

It seems that the Zhao army has set up camp, but in fact, under the cover of the night, the Zhao army has quietly left the camp, touched out from the north and south directions, and then went all the way forward, straight to Anyang City behind the Qin army!

Pang Nuan did not want to take the opportunity to take Anyang, but to ensure that he would adjust his deployment without being discovered by the Qin army, and wait until dawn to directly cut off the connection between the Qin army and Anyang City, so as to surround and annihilate these Qin troops who dared to play with him.

However, Pang Nuan's strategies, Yang Duanhe would not have imagined?

Will Yang Duanhe stupidly wait for his back road to be cut off by Pang Nuan?

It's simply not possible!

In the night, it was not only the Zhao army that acted, but the Qin army also took action.
