Chapter 129: Its Blood Xuanhuang
Wang Jian, the general of the Qin State, had very rich combat experience. What he does best is capture fighter planes. He sees any changes in the situation on the battlefield and the growth and decline of the forces of both the enemy and us, and adjusts his operational arrangements at any time.
In today's Battle of Pingling Pass, what he was most worried about was the continuous tentative attack of the Zhao cavalry on the edge of the army. That would not only cause trouble to the march of the Qin and Wei armies, but also make it easier to shake the morale of the army when the grain and grass in the rear had already been burned.
However, Zhao's cavalry did not do that. It is clear that they have been carried away by the victory. He was directly killed in the army. Wang Jian was overjoyed, he felt that the opportunity to annihilate this cavalry had come.
In fact, in the face of the Qin people who were not afraid of death, the charge of the Tiger Ben Army was indeed troubled. Their marching speed slowed down significantly, and in a short period of time, although they caused a lot of casualties to the Qin army, dozens of their own horses had fallen off their horses and died.
"Pass the order! Don't worry about casualties, do your best to tighten the encirclement, no matter what the price is, you must also strangle all the cavalry of the Zhao State here! ”
Wang Jian gave the order to die. He personally supervised the battle, and no one dared to retreat half a point. Most of the Qin army surrounded the Tiger Ben army that had entered it, layer after layer, and let them rush left and right, but it was always difficult to move forward.
Murong left the city with blood-stained robes, and he didn't know how many enemies died under his lance. If he was alone, no matter how many Qin troops there were, they wouldn't be able to stop him. But of course, he can't leave the Tiger Army alone. Although he really wanted to kill the generals again to frustrate the enemy's spirit, however, General Qin was in the Chinese army, and under the obstruction of tens of thousands of elites, it was already difficult to kill him.
"General! Kill yourself first! Don't let them get stuck here......! ”
Wu Sheng and several other lieutenants were also covered in blood. Seeing that the situation was unfavorable, they loudly urged Murong to leave the city. However, after the other party overturned several Qin troops who rushed over one after another, he only said one word loudly.
"All the soldiers of the Tiger Army, advance and retreat together! Hold on a little longer, and I believe that His Highness and the Dragoons will soon be killed...... Don't waste your bolts, save them for when you need them! ”
Hearing Murong's loud shouting order to leave the city, all the cavalry of the Tiger Ben Army admired it in their hearts. Since the general does not abandon them, how can they not fight hard! At this moment, perhaps only the knife in his hand and the blood in his chest can live up to the glory of a warrior.
After many years, the army of Zhao and the army of Qin finally began a real hard-fought contest. Ten thousand armies are fighting, and blood is shedding in the wilderness. Between every breath, dozens and hundreds of people died. Life at this moment is nothing but grass in the wind, dust on the ground.
At this moment, the rear army of the Qin State suddenly became chaotic. The Dragoons have finally arrived!
In Chu Jiangmian's prediction, the Dragoon Army and the Tiger Ben Army attacked the Qin and Wei armies head to tail and launched an attack at the same time. It should be possible to disrupt the enemy's position in one fell swoop, thus achieving the best chance of victory. It's just that he didn't expect that the speed of the Tiger Ben Army led by Murong Licheng would be so fast. Before they could arrive, they had already defeated Wei Wushu and rushed into the middle of the enemy's headquarters.
Seeing the scene of the fierce battle of the ten thousand armies from afar, Long Yu, who rushed to the front, didn't say anything, he raised the long knife in his hand high, and led the dragoons to pounce viciously into the ranks of the Qin army. There is only one belief in the heart of every warrior, His Royal Highness personally fights with the army, and in such an important battlefield, the Dragoon Army must not lose to the Tiger Army!
The addition of this new force directly disrupted the deployment of the Qin army. No matter how fierce and difficult the Qin people were, they were no longer afraid of death, but under the front and rear attacks of such two elite cavalry, in less than half an hour, they were in chaos.
Murong Licheng was keenly aware of the changes in the enemy army, although he had not yet seen the shadow of the dragon cavalry soldiers, but he and all the tiger cavalry knew in their hearts that they were coming! Just around the corner, fight side by side with yourself!
"Crossbow bolts open the way! Break through the gap and go straight to the Chinese army! ”
Murong left the city and shouted, and immediately reached out from behind to take off the crossbow machine, aimed at the enemy in front, and a box of crossbow arrows shot out, and those who were hit by the arrows fell to the ground one after another. When the other cavalrymen heard the order, they did not hesitate to shoot all the crossbow arrows that had already been fastened in their hands.
Ten thousand arrows were fired at once, like a shower of rain and thunder. At such a short distance, the Qin State foot soldiers, who were only wearing half armor, were simply difficult to resist. The crossbow arrows shot by the Divine Crossbow were extremely powerful, and in the blink of an eye, the dead were in disarray, and hundreds of people were either killed or injured, and the eyes were immediately empty.
All the cavalry of the Tiger Army immediately raised their long knives again, and the war horses stepped over the ground with dead and wounded, roaring like tigers, and went straight to the Chinese army where the banner of the Qin State was located. The Qin army, which was already in a panic, retreated one after another, and it was no longer possible to stop them.
Wang Jian saw that the armies in front and behind were retreating, and he was shocked and angry. He was about to personally carry his knife to lead the troops to fight to boost morale, but unexpectedly, the lieutenant, a confidant who had been defeated and retreated, had already run over in a panic and said loudly.
"The enemy cavalry is already coming this way! The front army can't stop them, so the general and the prince should quickly move with the Chinese army! ”
When Wang Jian heard this, he was furious! No matter how cautious he is, at this critical juncture, he suddenly loses his former calmness.
"Bold! Dare to disturb the hearts of our army, and quickly lead the army to meet the enemy! I will come after that, and those who dare to retreat will be slashed immediately! ”
However, seeing his fierce appearance with his sword drawn in his hand, the lieutenant not only did not retreat in fear, but fell to the ground with many people around him, crying and shouting: "General! We'll fight to the death...... But that can't be done! For the safety of the Shogun and Childe, please get out of here as soon as possible! ”
Wang Jian was so angry that he raised his sword to cut the leading lieutenant at his feet to warn the others. Unexpectedly, Gongzi Nie Yunfeng reached out and hugged his arm and persuaded him loudly.
"The cavalry of the Zhao army is fierce, and the general is temporarily avoiding its front with the Chinese army, which is the best policy! Let's go! ”
Faced with the unanimous request of everyone around him, Wang Jian had no choice. He finally glanced back at the scene of the fierce battle not far away, and he could already faintly see the shadow of the cavalry of the Zhao State appearing. I couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, and finally gave the order to retreat.
Although the 8,000 cavalry of the Qin State were all destroyed, there were still hundreds of cavalry in the army. The most important duty of these brave men on the battlefield is to protect the safety of the commander. After hearing the order, they surrounded Wang Jian and Nie Yunfeng and quickly began to move to the northwest.
The generals who stayed behind finally put their minds at ease. The reason why they care so much about Wang Jian's safety is that they have unspeakable hardships. Because the Qin State has strict military regulations, if the general dies on the battlefield, then the general and above will be beheaded! Even if they can't die on the battlefield, they won't be able to return to Qin. And what's more, you have to bear the stigma of shame. Their families are also hardly treated. Such a harsh decree could certainly greatly strengthen the combat effectiveness of the Qin army. But at the same time, when it comes to life and death, they have to think more about the future.
"It's time to fight to the death with Zhao Jun! For the favor of King Qin...... Kill! ”
In the roar of the generals and colonels, a large number of Qin troops rushed over regardless of life and death, blocking the hooves of the cavalry of Zhao with their own lives. They are not cowards, and if they are destined to die in a foreign land, they will die a heroic death!
The dragoons who came from the west finally saw the shadow of the Tiger Army. The forwards of the two are already less than a few dozen feet apart, and they are about to converge. At the same time, Chu Jiangmian, who was rushing with the army, also saw the movement of the opponent's Chinese army banner from a distance.
"Go and inform General Murong immediately, you don't have to fight! Quickly break through the Chinese army, don't let Wang Jian escape! ”
Shoot the man first and shoot the horse, and capture the thief first and capture the king. I don't know when it started, Chu Jiangmian became interested in the so-called famous generals in this world. He really wanted to convince them one by one, and it must be a very interesting thing!
Some knights rode away. Soon, Murong Licheng, who had received Chu Jiangmian's personal order, immediately told the whole army, marched forward bravely, and after killing the enemy army in front of him, he went to chase after the main general of the Qin army.
And Chu Jiangmian ordered all the soldiers of the dragoon army to shout in unison: "Wang Jian has fled!" The Qin army has been defeated...... Those who surrender will not die! ”
I have to say that the departure of Wang Jian and the Chinese army guards greatly affected the morale of the army. Many of the former and rear sergeants who were still desperately resisting, when they looked in the direction where the Chinese army was, in the vast wind and sand, they really couldn't see the general's banner. Already terrified by the lack of food and successive defeats, they suddenly lost the courage to continue fighting. This is where the chaos and the rout begin!
On the battlefield where the two armies are fighting, morale boosting is extremely important. Once the frenzy of defeat began to surge, even some brave Qin troops wanted to fight again, but they were powerless. Whether they were brave or cowardly, they were all caught in it, following the direction in which their general had left, and running for their lives along with those Wei warriors.
And the Dragoons and Tiger Warriors, who finally began to fight together, followed them from both sides, like a huge pair of scissors, constantly crossing and reaping the lives of the defeated.
The so-called defeat is like a mountain! Whether it is the Qin army or the Wei army, they have no intention of fighting. What they are thinking about now is to hurry back the way they came, leave the territory of Zhao State, and maybe escape with their lives. It's just that after passing through these hundreds of miles in high spirits, it is not easy to escape again!
"General Long Yu! You take the dragoon army and the majority of the tiger army and continue to pursue the defeated army of Qin and Wei. Dozens of miles ahead, 30,000 reinforcements from Wutong Pass were waiting for them...... Don't let a single soldier escape! ”
Long Yu led the order loudly and chased the enemy with more than 6,000 cavalry, which was like driving a flock of sheep. Chu Jiangmian looked back at Murong Licheng, who came from the horse, and smiled faintly.
"Xiaoli, go! Let's go and meet that famous general of the Qin State. ”
