It is said that the night before dawn is the darkest time. But in the eyes of all the Tiger Ben soldiers at this moment, they have seen infinite light. The battle that ended half an hour ago was so painful. The 5,000 Tiger Ben Army against the 8,000 Great Qin Cavalry was supposed to be a desperate fight of equal strength. Even in the hearts of the battle-hardened Captain Wu Sheng, they are ready to die in battle. However, no one could have imagined that victory would come so easily. The Tiger Army has won a big victory! It's not just a big win, it's a hearty big win!

Just two hours ago, Wang Xuanwu, who thought that he would be able to reach Dragon City without much effort, finally ushered in his first battle after entering the territory of Zhao State.

At that time, the vanguard of this cavalry had just begun to enter the Pingling Pass, and most of the cavalry waiting in front of the pass were also ready to pass through the city. At this moment, the sound of horses' hooves began to sound not far from the left. In the darkness, I don't know how many enemies are coming, and the calm is broken.

"General! The enemy has appeared, it is the cavalry of Zhao State! ”

The scouts on the periphery hurriedly ran over to report the news. However, Wang Xuanwu did not seem flustered, he was like many cavalry soldiers around him, and he was inexplicably excited.

"Zhao Guoren dared to take the initiative to run to death, we can't ask for it! All the soldiers obeyed the order, followed the commanders of their respective teams, and carried out a cooperative outflanking operation, and must annihilate all the enemies that appeared, and not let them escape again! ”

Wang Xuanwu, who raised his long knife high and gave the battle order, was not aware of the danger at all. He loudly urged several cavalry captains under his command to lead their troops into battle. However, he was too underestimated. He didn't know what kind of sense of honor this newly established cavalry of the Zhao State had in his heart, let alone what kind of sharp weapons were already aimed at them in the other party's hands.

Fighting at night would have been a taboo for cavalry. Whether it's an enemy army or your own army, it's likely to cause confusion and accidental injury. However, the Qin army, which finally encountered a combat opportunity, obviously couldn't care about it much. They adjusted their formation in the shortest possible time, and with the general's order to attack, the brigade of men and horses took the walls and moat of the fortress as their backs, and viciously pounced on the cavalry rushing from a distance.

If you look down from a high place, the situation of the two armies on the battlefield in front of Pingling Pass is very obvious. Under the illumination of thousands of torches, the Great Qin cavalry who shouted and rushed to kill was like an angry fire dragon, with its scales and claws flying and winding to form a glaive shape, wanting to strangle the enemy troops rushing over in it. And the Tiger Ben Army is like a cold arrow shot in the night, once it leaves the string, it will not hesitate and never look back!

The war horses of the two sides were rapidly approaching, and a cold smile appeared on the face of the Qin military captain who rushed to the front, he raised Changge, and the more than 1,000 Changge behind him also flashed with light. This is a tactical coordination that the Great Qin cavalry is very good at. Chang Ge is in front, sword and shield are behind, and has both charging and defensive functions, and can give the opponent a hard lesson and setback at the first glance.

However, before his smile could disappear from his face, he felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his body had fallen from his horse when he heard a sound like raindrops in his ears at the same time. Before being crushed by the huge horse's hooves that followed closely behind, countless exclamations and screams rang out all around, and like this captain, the crossbow arrows shot by the Zhao people from the darkness easily tore through their armor, and the cavalry of the Qin State were cut by the sickle of the god of death.

The people of the Qin State definitely did not expect that the cavalry of the Zhao State would release arrows under such circumstances, and the lethality was so huge! If it was on the battlefield during the day, the two cavalry were hedged, and the cavalry of the Qin State could of course also release arrows in advance to inflict casualties on the enemy. But it was in the dark of night, and there was no need to use a bow and arrow. Instead of indiscriminately throwing arrows without a goal, it is better to concentrate on killing the enemy with the knife and Changge in your hand!

It was precisely because of this that the Qin cavalry had no intention of using bows and arrows, and their bows and arrows were not taken off from behind the saddle at all. And now, when the two sides are still twenty or thirty feet apart, huge casualties began to appear in the army on their side. Qin Guocai suddenly realized that the cavalry of Zhao State was beyond their imagination! However, it is too late to regret it now.

The strength of the cavalry charge on the battlefield mainly lies in breaking through all obstacles in front of it like sharp knives, and then endlessly, destroying the opponent's will to fight with irresistible momentum. However, once the offensive is blocked and the tip of the knife is broken, then it will be an irreparable disaster for the cavalry behind.

The first round of crossbow arrows that came head-on, the Qin cavalry was almost indiscriminately hit. The crossbow arrows fired by the Tiger Ben Army's divine crossbow do not need to be aimed at all, within this optimal shooting distance, as long as they aim at the front on their horses, pull the trigger, and a rain of arrows shoots away, regardless of people and horses, almost all of them are invincible.

In a matter of moments, the Qin army suffered heavy casualties. As the horses in front fell, the cavalry that followed closely behind had no time to react, and even if they were not hit, they fell one after another...... The brigade soon became a crowd, crying out miserably, unable to advance.

At this moment, the Tiger Ben Army, which came with a murderous aura, galloped in front of him. With the light of the sword, they split in two, like a tiger growing two wings, close to the left and right wings to cover and kill. Countless splashes of blood began to stain the night red, and hundreds of lives were lost in the course of riding by.

Wang Xuanwu, the chief general who pressed the formation in the middle of the Qin army, looked at the cavalry that began to show signs of chaos and defeat, he was shocked and angry, raised his long knife, beat his horse and rushed forward. The hundreds of horsemen around him hurriedly followed closely and protected him in the middle. After slashing a retreating Qin soldier under his horse with a single sword, the young general, who had high hopes from many, shouted loudly like a thunderbolt.

"Those who retreat are killed! Rush forward with me and kill ......! ”

Unexpectedly, the aftermath of the killing word was not broken, but he suddenly found that there was a big mess in front of him. I saw that the cavalry of the Qin State was staggering, people were injured and horses were gone, and under the firelight, a war horse killed the resistance of thousands of horsemen and jumped out. A few zhang away, the general immediately took the main general under the banner of the Qin army!

The Qin cavalry who was responsible for protecting Wang Xuanwu was taken aback, and they didn't have time to think about it, so they rushed up, trying to block the Zhao general who was killing. However, they have only lost their lives in vain. Murong left the city by directly riding alone to take the life of the enemy's general, how could ordinary people stop it! He roared, and swept through thousands of armies with a long lance in his hand, and whoever he encountered, he would die if he touched it, and he would die next to it, the sword flew wildly, the bones were broken and the tendons were broken, and wherever the horse passed, there was no enemy!

Wang Xuanwu prides himself on being skilled in swords and horses on weekdays, and is sought after by many people as the rising star of the Wang family. I have always thought that Lao Tzu is the best in the world! However, at this moment, looking at that majestic figure, he finally understood how arrogant and ignorant he was before! Feeling that compelling murderous aura, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and while shouting to call the cavalry behind him, he raised his sword to resist.

Murong Licheng had already stared at his figure, and in the blink of an eye, he rushed under the banner. The distance between him and the enemy general was imminent, and he used his arms so hard that the tiger-headed divine lance slashed down diagonally from mid-air. The two lieutenants who rushed to the rescue were beaten and flew out with knives, and then the lance head of the long lance swept over the head of the enemy general, and the helmet and head were smashed to pieces. The commander of the eight thousand Great Qin cavalry died tragically in his own army without even snorting.

After beheading the general, Murong left the city, did not stop, and with a hand, the Qin army made a big decision. He didn't even look behind him, the war horse continued to rush forward, as long as the Qin army in front of him was killed!

The cavalry of the Qin State were all shocked to see their lord die so miserably. In addition, the enemies coming from both sides shouted loudly and slaughtered. Their will to fight was quickly disintegrated. As the lieutenant of the Chinese army seized Wang Xuanwu's body and left, the Qin army began to flee in all directions.

However, it is not easy to escape in the hands of the Tiger Army. The Qin army originally thought that fighting with their backs to the city could avoid worries. Unexpectedly, when the army was defeated, this became the biggest obstacle to their escape.

Many Great Qin cavalry who were panicked directly rolled into the moat with their men and horses. Although the moat outside Pingling Pass is not deep, because of the heavy rain just a few days ago, the silt inside does not reach the horse's legs. Whether it is a war horse or a cavalry in armor, after being trapped inside, it is difficult to come up for a while. And these people were naturally very unlucky, and the Tiger Army shot them very easily.

As for those who walked around the city, most of them were caught up and killed. Only a few who saw the opportunity quickly finally escaped with their lives. From start to finish, the battle didn't take more than two hours. The 8,000 most elite cavalry of the Qin State were buried in the dark night in front of Pingling Pass.

And now, the dawn is about to break in the east, and the Tiger Ben army, which is pursuing with victory, has also stopped for the time being. Because, as far as the eye could see in front of them, was the camp of the 130,000 army of Qin and Wei.

"General! What do we do now? ”

Captain Wu Sheng's eyes flashed with excitement. He, like many Tiger Warriors, wiped and wiped the Divine Crossbow in his hand as if it were a treasure, the most powerful weapon they had ever used. If Murong Licheng said the order to continue the attack now, everyone would rush into the enemy camp without hesitation. Perhaps, only in this way can the blood boiling in the chest be calmed.
