Chapter Forty-Six: The Hunt

Xiong Jing looked to the north when he spoke, the Qin army camp had been occupied by the Chu army, and there were countless Chu soldiers jumping and cheering in front of the camp. Victory, like a rain, quenches people's thirst. But behind the large camp that everyone could not see, only a few Chu troops pursued the Qin army that retreated in a hurry. It is not so much that the Chu army was victorious, but that the Qin army retreated.

Xiong Jing, who shouted 'Chu people, advance', fell, and did not see the evolution of the situation of the two armies later, if he knew that the left and right armies and the right wing of the Chinese army did not take the opportunity to detour to the rear of Li Xinbu, it is estimated that he would vomit a few liters of blood. It is really unjust to take such great risks and sacrifice countless generals, but not to annihilate half of the Qin army.

Xiong Jing was looking north, and he didn't want a cavalry army a few miles to the east to go north quickly, seeing that its queue was dense, and he was afraid that it was not under 10,000 people. The cavalry, the cavalry infantry of the Qin army, these people must have received the news of the defeat of the Qin army, so they abandoned Jiangyi and went north.

The horse is gone! Xiong Jing's first reaction was this, and then a kind of resentment arose in his heart: if the Chu army also had a cavalry, even if there were only 10,000 people, the outcome of this battle would be very different, but unfortunately his poor 2,000 cavalry had been exhausted in the confrontation.

"Hurry up, quick!" Xiong Jing reacted like this, Xiang Yan, as the main general, saw the Qin cavalry and subconsciously withdrew his troops. He was afraid that the divisions would chase too much and be counterattacked by the Qin army. In the current situation, it is only right to rectify the ranks, collect grain, and buy a pot for breakfast.

"The last general respectfully obeys the order." After Xiang Yan gave the order to Mingjin, he waved at Xiong Jing, "Our army will naturally pull out the camp after dinner, and line up in the south of Yiyi before dawn tomorrow morning." The Qin people were frightened, and our army should drive them out of the Chu realm with a bang. ”

"Where is Xiang Chao?" Xiong Jing rode around on a pony and didn't see Xiang Chao, and there was also a child of the princess surnamed Gong.

"The last general......" Xiang Yan didn't see his son, "The last general didn't see the dog either, I'm afraid he will pursue the Qin army." ”

The two armies were six or seven hundred paces apart, one was blazing with fire, and the other was cheering. There were only apprentices and chariots between the large camps, and not half of the cavalry was seen. It is unbelievable that his son died in battle, and the county witch said that he was not a short-lived person, so he could only pursue the Qin army.

More than ten miles north of the Qin army's camp, Xiang Chao and Concubine Jing were indeed pursuing the Qin army, but they did not pursue the Qin army's infantry army, but pursued the Qin cavalry, and the initiator was Concubine Jing. In a battle with the martial knights of the Qin army, less than half of the more than 1,000 riders remained, but there were not many noble sons and daughters wearing rhino armor and holding cavalry swords. Immediately fighting, dismounting and fighting, holding a five-foot sword, they are simply invincible, the four-foot Qin sword is broken, the leather armor is even worse, and the armor and bones are even slashed with a knife, it is simply flesh and blood.

"Brother Zijing, who is the person you are chasing, how can he be in the Qin army?" Le Ma stopped on the top of the hill, and the people and horses were sweating profusely, and the north wind blew, and the white steam immediately rose. After fighting for nearly an hour, the horses were tired, the people were tired, and countless Qin troops came in a hurry behind them, and more than 100 riders on their side would be surrounded by the Qin army if they were not careful.

"Zichao remembers the Chu army scout who attacked my left army's camp at night?" Fei Jing asked. Seeing Xiang Chao nodding, he said: "I thought that he was the same as the old scout, he was killed in battle, but when he was in the Qin army's cavalry formation, I saw him, and he was wearing Qin clothes!" ”

The more she spoke, the more resentful she became. The traitor is the most hateful, of course he remembers the boy named Fen, because of the old scout and his cover, he escaped, never expected that the boy named Fen did not die, but surrendered to the Qin army as a traitor.

"Brother Zijing, is there a mistake?" Xiang Chao naturally knew the traitor among the scouts, "More than 100,000 Qin troops, how can we find this person?" In my brother's humble opinion, I waited for the horsepower to run out, so it was better to go back to the camp and resume my life. ”

"This is a grudge between me and him, you can go back to the camp first." After chasing so far after the battle, the people and horses were exhausted, of course Yu Jing knew that what Xiang Chao said was not a prevarication, but he was bent on killing the boy and didn't want to fight the horse and return to the camp.

"You and others have listened, Brother Zijing doesn't want to go back to the camp, he wants to kill the boy who rebelled against Chu and surrendered to Qin, you wait and go back to the camp, Brother Zijing and I will behead him." Xiang Chaoma turned around and turned back again. He didn't really want to go back to the camp, and of course, he didn't just want to hunt down the boy. In this battle, Chu defeated Qin, and he was happy to see the Qin army routing all over the mountains, if he rushed up to kill a few people, and the frightened Qin people shouted and ran, it would be even more pleasant.

"Brother Zijing and Brother Zichao will not return to the camp, and we will not return to the camp either." Those who are close are the children of nobles, and those who are farther away are the riders of the children. Young people always think similarly, and few want to go back to the camp to resume their lives. Previously, Chu cavalry was not as good as Qin cavalry, but now everyone has a huge iron sword given by the king himself, once the crossbow arrow is blocked, the martial knight will not dare to get close. With a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, the martial knight he killed just now was defeated and retreated, and he was even more fearless at the moment.

"I have heard that a sword needs to drink human blood to quench its thirst, and so does a sword. The Qin people fled, why don't we kill again to quench the thirst of the treasure sword. Xiang Chao was close to the side, and the arrogant son said, and between the words, he also waved the cavalry knife a few times.

"If you want to kill Qin's pawn, please do it yourself." Fei Jing was a little displeased. The rider who remained, he hoped to help him find the boy, instead of killing the fleeing Qin army. The Qin people really deserve to die, but if they target this kind of person, they will not be able to win, and they should be ashamed of the nobles.

After "driving" Fu Jing finished speaking, he beat his horse and galloped down the hill and swept in front of a group of Qin soldiers. Although the soldiers of the Chu and Qin armies did not have uniform clothing, they were immediately taken aback when they saw the black rhino armor on his body. After the concubine, more than 100 horses swept by, frightening everyone from entering again. When the cavalry was far away, they moved forward again.

"I'm going to kill... This person, in fact, is another... Yes... One thing. During the run, Fei Jing and Xiang Chao went hand in hand, Fei Jing was talking, but when the wind came, Xiang Chao could only listen intermittently.

"What's the matter... Nirvana... This fang? Xiang Chao asked, he was a little puzzled by Fei Jing's persistence.

"You... Know... King... How is it... Riding? Fei Jing asked. Without waiting for Xiang Chao to answer, he asked again: "King... Year... Not as good as... Toothy, yet... Riding skills... Skilled... No, no... You and me,... Know... Why? ”

The matter was about the king, Xiang Chao was closer to Concubine Jing, he turned his head sideways and said loudly: "I don't know." …… Why is that? ”

"That's... Yu Tong... Also since... Yingdu... Come... Worked in... 囿苑... See... King... Xi horseback riding... Arts,... It was... With me... Speech...... King... Horseback riding... Own... Arcane ,... In this way... Arcane ,... Unusual... people, etc... Days... Can... Ride ......"

Fei Jing looked around as he spoke, although his voice fluctuated, but Xiang Chao still understood the general idea. He was about to ask what kind of secret technique it was, but Yu Jing suddenly said nothing, and Ling Ran's eyes looked at a team of Qin people not far away, this team of Qin people was no less than a thousand people, and the chariot riders were mixed.

"Come with me! "Fei Jing steered his horse and turned and ran towards the group of Qin people.

The north of the Qingshui River to Yiyi is mostly plains, the sun has not yet set, and the golden sunlight is sprinkled all over the grassland, and it also shines on the retreating Qin army. The retreat of the Qin army was a big defeat in the eyes of the great general Meng Wu, but in the eyes of the commander Bai Lin, it was harmless at all.

The Chu army made up a pocket array to put hundreds of thousands of Qin army troops into it, but there was no way to eat the Chinese army in the pocket array, if it were not for the sudden collapse of the right army and the sweep of the Chu army, it was difficult to predict who would win and who would lose in this battle.

What if the Qin army was defeated, and what about tens of thousands of soldiers killed and wounded? As long as the king insists on destroying Chu and the Fu Festival is spread, it is easy for each county to summon another 300,000 people, and the soldiers summoned are completely defeated by the old, weak, sick and young of the Chu army. The kingdom of the heavens, with Qin as the hegemon, bowed down to Qin, how could the Chu State be defeated in a war?

If they want to defeat the Qin State, in addition to destroying their own more than 200,000 people, the Chu army will also annihilate the Qin army three more times. With such a million armor soldiers dying, only the old and weak were left in the country, and the Qin State could collapse. But the Chu army has no cavalry, and no resourcefulness, so it can't encircle and annihilate itself at all, so how can it defeat the Qin State.

"Our army will come back next time, and we should destroy the country of the Jing people!" Bai Lin's half-truths and half-truths on the carriage boosted the morale of his subordinates. As the left army of the Qin army, although he was not overwhelmed by the Chu army, he retreated with 20,000 people and actually messed up by himself. Up to now, he can't find a general, he can't find a soldier, and there are only more than 1,000 people under his command.

"What the Captain said is very true, although the Jing people are brave, but they are not resourceful. If they set up an ambush here, our army will be killed in time, and we will all die here. Haha...... "More than 1,000 people gathered in chariots, mostly officers and short soldiers, and some cavalry. After Bai Lin finished speaking, another person under the command of the commander immediately echoed, this person was typical of a crow's mouth, and before the laughter stopped, a cavalry came fiercely and viciously.

"Formation! Formation! Bai Lin also panicked, although the enemy army only had more than 100 horsemen, it was not easy to provoke that posture.

"Fen! You suffer death. "More than 100 horses ago, the cavalry knife of Fei Jing was out of the sheath, and the tip of the knife only pointed to Yu Tong Fen next to the Rong car where Bai Lin was, the cavalry of Chu and Qin fought a big battle, and the martial knights who rushed away after the defeat of the main army were also chaotic, Bai Lin's department was familiar with Fen, so he retreated to Yiyi under Bai Lin's command, and he didn't expect the Chu army to chase after him, let alone that Yan Jing would chase after him.

"Kill!" Fei Jingfeng rushed over, and several armor soldiers who couldn't avoid it were dragged by him with a cavalry knife, not only the armor was cut, but the belly was also cut, and the blood and intestines fell together when they knelt down, but fortunately, the pain of these people was quickly ended by the knights behind. The cavalry swords swung over, and they were immediately in a different place, unconscious.

"Fenfen!" Fei Jing rushed to the front, he crossed the line of Qin people, and when he approached Bai Lin's chariot, he stretched out his arms and waved his knife, not wanting to shrink down immediately, rolling between the mount and the chariot, and Fei Jing's knife was only slashed on the saddle. The horses neighed, and at the same time, a few black things fell in front of them, which were the heads of Chu pawns and the heads of knights.

"Fenfen." Fu Jing returned to the horse, at this time Fen was already lying on Bai Lin's chariot, the chariot did not gallop, hundreds of short soldiers quickly protected the chariot, forming a small phalanx, and the nearby Qin army soldiers also rushed to help.

"Kill!" Yu Fen, who narrowly escaped the catastrophe, was scared and glad at the time when he stared at the knife running towards him, he didn't want Xiang Chao on the other side to throw a knife, and with a 'bang', the blade passed through his body and nailed him to the wooden pole behind the car.
