Chapter 243: Fishing for Military Merit

Soon, the cautious army of 40,000 was divided into three phalanxes, in the shape of pockets, and set up a formation.

The front 20,000 cavalry were responsible for meeting the enemy head-on, while the 10,000 cavalry on the left and right were responsible for the attack on both flanks. In this way, a three-sided attack can obviously annihilate the 10,000 pursuers of the Qin army with one blow.

For King Su Shen, who is a bit arrogant and arrogant, and even almost arrogant, he is still extremely confident in his own arrangement.

What's more, he also needs a battle to prove his ability.

Since the death of his father half a year ago, he inherited the throne as a young man, although the throne has been stable for half a year, but because of his young age, in fact, the generals and ministers within Su Shen do not have much respect for him as the new king in their hearts.

All this, King Su Shen is still very clear in his heart.

In the final analysis, it is because he has not shown the ability to govern the country, and he has no merits.

Therefore, King Su Shen is in need of a battle to prove himself.

Originally, he thought that he could lead an army of 40,000 troops, gallop to the aid of Fu Yu, and join forces with Fu Yu to fight against Qin, and he could make miraculous achievements and prove his talents.

However, who knew that Fu Yu would lose so quickly and so badly, so that this plan to help Fu Yu was completely ruined, and it ended up in a situation of no success.

However, in order to be cautious, in order to preserve this 40,000 main force of Su Shen, King Su Shen had to choose to retreat and return to China to defend against the enemy.

In the face of the Qin army, he ordered a retreat, and he gave the soldiers an image of being afraid of the enemy and incompetent. It is impossible to say that there is no grievance and helplessness in the heart.

And now, the Qin army has sent 10,000 pursuers, isn't this a turning point?

First, these 10,000 pursuers are a mile away, if they are not defeated, their main force will be restrained by them, and when the main force of the Qin army chases after them, their 40,000 people may never go back.

Second, he has 40,000 warriors, and if he wants to defeat the 10,000 Qin State pursuers, he obviously has a chance to win, so he can prove his ability with this battle.

It can be said that facing the pursuing troops of the Qin State is not only conducive to his own cautious position in the future, but also conforms to the current battlefield situation.

And if you listen to the advice of the young general, leave 10,000 people, and lead the remaining 30,000 troops to escape, it is the most unwise choice.

In this way, not only will you lose 10,000 troops, but you will also have to return to the country with a reputation of being defeated.

In this way, the new king will have no status in the country of prudence.

For us, the ambitious King of Prudence, it is clear that he can triumph with victory, but he has to choose to leave 10,000 soldiers and horses and go back in a crushing defeat, which is simply the most stupid way to do it!

And he is not a big fool, so fighting is the wisest decision.

Thinking of this, King Su Shen wanted to praise his resourcefulness and kindness, and the way of improvisation was even more exerted in his own hands.

Soon, the Qin army crossed a hill, and their figures finally appeared in the sight of the Su Shen army.

At this time, the two armies were less than 800 paces apart.

When King Su Shen saw it, he immediately ordered: "Su Shen warriors, don't let the Qin army escape, kill me!" ”

Yes, King Su Shen was very worried that the Qin army would turn around and flee.

Because his side had set up a position to meet the enemy, and his strength was four times that of the Qin army, the Qin army would obviously retreat and flee when he saw this scene.

Therefore, it is necessary to rush forward as soon as possible and force the other side to fight hard.

"Kill!"

With the order of King Su Shen, the three phalanxes, divided into frontal attack and flank attack, totaling 40,000 people, immediately roared and rushed towards the Qin army in front.

Every prudent soldier is majestic and imposing. Because in their opinion, this battle of resistance is completely a hunt for the Qin army.

10,000 Qin troops rushed into the encirclement of 40,000 Su Shen troops......

The Qin army was defeated, and apparently this was something beyond doubt.

Of course, in the eyes of King Su Shen, he naturally thinks so. The only thing that is still uncertain is that there is only one problem, and that is the question of time to annihilate this Qin army.

This was also the only thing King Su Shen cared about, because if the time was delayed for too long, the main force of the Qin army might arrive.

Therefore, what he cares about now is that he hopes that the Prudent army can be quickly resolved.

It's just that to King Sushen's surprise, when the Qin army saw his 40,000 Sushen army, they didn't seem to have the intention of retreating and fleeing as he expected, but continued to rush forward very firmly, obviously intending to engage the Sushen army.

The scene of Qin Jun moving forward bravely and forgetting his life and forgetting death made King Su Shen can't help but feel a little admiration in his heart.

But......

This kind of courageous spirit is commendable, but the general of the Qin army is a stupid and stupid person.

Knowing that he is invincible, but he still has to be sent to death, the generals of the Qin army are not stupid?

"Haha, this battle can be decided quickly!"

Seeing that the Qin army did not escape, King Su Shen was very happy, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he confidently said to the generals around him.

All the generals also nodded, what they were most worried about was that the Qin army would turn around and flee, so it would take much longer to catch up and annihilate them.

…………

"All the soldiers of the army, the opportunity to establish miraculous feats has arrived, kill them with me!"

Su Jiao looked at the 40,000 Su Shen army in front of him, his excited eyes were red, he pulled out his Qin sword, and with a loud roar, he rushed towards the front of the Su Shen army......

Although he only has 10,000 iron horses, he ......

The iron cavalry of the 10,000 Qin army, but equipped with stirrups and saddles, how strong this combat effectiveness is, has already been fully verified in the battle with the Xiongnu and Fuyu army.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Qin army's iron cavalry equipped with stirrups and saddles is three times the enemy, and there is no pressure at all.

What's more, Su Shen only has a total of 50,000 standing troops, and if he can destroy the main force of 40,000 in front of him, it will essentially be equivalent to destroying Su Shen Country.

Next, it is enough to take the army over and take over the power.

Destroying the two countries in one day, can such a feat not make Su Jiao excited and almost crazy?

Not to mention that Su Jiao's eyes are red, even the soldiers below are all like they have been beaten with chicken blood, and everyone is eager to make military merits and increase their years.

Nowadays, although the military merit field has been abolished, there is a retirement system.

It is equivalent to saying that as long as you are on active duty, the more military merits you make, the more your title will rise, and the higher the retirement salary you will get after retirement.

Therefore, if Su Jiao ordered a retreat at this time, these soldiers would have to be anxious with him, and it was estimated that it would be light to scold him as a "turtle grandson who sells horses".

You know, just a few days ago, there was a guy who killed several Hun soldiers in Donghu, plus a Hun general, so that this guy directly jumped three levels in a row, and his annual salary increased by three times, which can make everyone envious.

"All the officers and men of the army, ignore the flanks and follow me to attack the Chinese army!"

When the two armies were two hundred meters apart, the enemy's two armies on the left and right had already attacked from the flanks on both sides. In order to avoid his own army, it was divided into three, which caused his strength to be inadequate, and Su Jiao directly issued a military order.

In his opinion, his own forces were already weak, and if he had to divide his troops to meet the enemy on both flanks, then his side would definitely lose this battle.

And the key to the decisive victory is to directly attack the enemy's Chinese army. After all, as long as the Qin army attacked their Chinese army, then it would be impossible for their left and right armies to crash into their own Chinese army formation, right?

Therefore, in Su Jiao's view, as long as the Chinese army can be crushed with one blow, then the enemy's left and right armies will lose their original role.

In the blink of an eye, the two armies collided.

Su Jiao's whole person stood up from his horse, raised the Qin sword in his hand, and slashed the enemy first......

"Kill!"

Suddenly, the sound of killing shook the sky.

The black torrent of the Qin army directly crushed the Su Shen Zhong army......
