The cavalry led by Ma Wei was no more than a thousand, but in this narrow valley, a thousand cavalry was enough. The pursuit of the cavalry made the Zhao army, who had stayed in Yanshi Sai and Chaona City because of the lack of horses, unable to rush forward to kill the enemy, but fortunately, they were still in deep shock and had no intention of rushing forward. Artillery, a cross-generational weapon, has finally made its bloody debut, and Xiong Jing had thought that they would be the first to sound in the Mediterranean.

"If the king has such an artifact, the Qin people will die." Li Mu's eldest son, Li Bo, who was also in the army, saw the corpses in one place and said so.

"Mortal?" Xiong Jing smiled, he did not think that artillery could be a decisive factor in war. "Without this artifact, the Qin people will also die."

Xiong Jing's idea was realistic, and the world-famous Pickett charged, and more than 100 people from the Southern Army rushed into the stone wall. In other words, before and after the First World War, as long as the tactics were excellent and the organization was effective, the infantry could break through the enemy's fire network (in addition to artillery, the fire network also included flintlock pistols and rifles that the Chu army does not have now, while in the pre-loading gun era, the wounds of bullets accounted for 47%, and the shells were only 37%), Fao (Melegnano, Solferino, ), Prussian (Le. Bourget), Russian-Turkish (Skobelev in Plevna), Russo-Japanese (the battle of the Ohara Division at Liaoyang) are all examples.

But in Li Bo's view, this is a kind of modesty, and he said convincingly: "The king is heroic." ”

Along the way, Li Bo was accompanied to talk carefully, and after Li Mu heard the news, he chased after him, and naturally he also had the intention of being a hostage. Xiong Jing did not answer, and after learning that Zhao Ren deliberately leaked secrets, he fell into a contradictory situation towards Zhao Ren, wanting to save Zhao on the one hand, and not wanting to save Zhao on the other. At this time, he only looked at the valley that was getting darker and darker, hoping to get news from Xiong Han, Yi Su and others. As for Mi Xuan, it was expected that after learning that Chu Zhao's cavalry army had attacked Qin, Zhao Zheng would definitely not let her out.

Thinking of Qi Xuan, he no longer had any joy. The temple has ended, and if nothing else, she is already drinking with Zhao Zheng.

"Servant!!" Xiong Jing scolded viciously, his woman was actually given by Qin Shi Huang.

"Brother Wang......" The visibility in the dim is only a few tens of meters, and after Xiong Jing scolded violently, he heard Xiong Yan's voice. The thought of this young brother snatching women for himself made him feel a little better in his heart.

"Meet Brother Wang." Xiong Han hurriedly dismounted and bowed, followed by Jing Fei and others. "The sinners pay homage to the king."

"Humph!" A group of lawless guys, Xiong Jing shouted: "Someone! Shut up. ”

"Brother Wang," Gong Jia stepped forward and grabbed Jing Fei and the others and put them in chains, but Xiong Han didn't move. "Brother Wang, the crime lies with me, I stole the royal brother's decree and released General Concubine and others out of the palace ...... privately"

"You?" Xiong Jing stared at his younger brother with a straight face, and only when he saw that he was hairy all over his body did he say: "Your crimes, the crimes of Brother Wang, will be punished by the queen mother." Do you know that Brother Wang also ran out of the palace this time? ”

"Ah......" Xiong Han saw that there was no ginger by Brother Wang's side, and there was no left and right history.

"Are you okay?" Xiong Jing's expression was no longer serious, and he turned his younger brother around with concern.

"It's fine. Brother Xie Wang ......" Xiong Han's heart swelled with heat, and he stepped forward to hold Xiong Jing's hand and said, "This is my sin." The Qin people knew that our army had entered Xianyang, so they humiliated the mission, and the young son of Mi did not welcome back. ”

"It's none of your business." Xiong Jing didn't know the mechanism of Zhao Ren's leak, and even if he knew, he couldn't blame Xiong Qiang. There are not only many obstacles between him and Mi Xuan, but also other obstacles that are difficult to overcome.

"The ministers meet the king......" As soon as the Qin army retreated for several miles, the Chu army, which was unbreakable in the encirclement, held on until the Zhao army led by Ma Wei rescued him. It is a pity that there are only more than 300 of the more than 1,000 people left.

"Where is Yi Hou?" Xiong Jing didn't see Yi Tong, only his cousin Yi Tong.

"Your lord, your lord," before the Qin army frantically attacked the chariots, and the heavy horses still couldn't resist each other. "Big injury."

"Where are the people?" Xiong Jing said urgently. "That's not a quick blood transfusion."

In addition to the gunner and knight, there were healers and two bloody men who boarded the two flying shearboats. urged to save people here, and Xiang Chao said: "Your lord, Zijing ......"

"How?" Xiong Jing is anxious, Fei Jing is the main general of the cavalry, he must not die here.

"Fainting too." Xiang Chao replied. "It also needs to be treated by a doctor."

"King, although the Qin army is defeated, how can it disturb my back road on the other side, it will be night, please get out of the valley quickly." Li Qi also killed, with more than ten injuries on his body, but most of them were minor injuries, the Qin army was tens of thousands of people, and he crossed the Qin army across the river and surrounded the thousands of people of the king of Chu.

"Herald! Take the wounded and comrades, and get out of the valley quickly. Xiong Jing ordered: "There is no one left!" ”

"The minister has his life, and there is no one left." Xiang Chao hit the horse and galloped back, his energy seemed to be endless.

The Qin army only retreated a few miles before regrouping its position, but the artillery was given to Zhang Han, Wang Ao, and Zhao Yong just now, and these Qin generals were greatly shocked. Under the angry fire of the artillery, the Qin army couldn't even rush in, so how could they fight? With the fear of artillery, the Qin generals tacitly withdrew the army beyond the valley mouth, leaving only an army of thousands of people inside the valley mouth to hold the valley mouth. All arrangements were stopped, and the shogunate at the mouth of the valley summoned the generals to discuss the war.

"When King Jing comes, he should be killed." Commander Zhao Yang was obviously unwilling to accept the defeat just now. "If our army can shoot with a strong crossbow......"

"A strong crossbow can shoot no more than one hundred and fifty paces, but a witch weapon can reach three hundred paces away." The Chu people worship witches, and the artillery people don't know what to call it, so they can only order it to be a witch weapon. "The strong crossbow has not arrived, the witch weapon has sounded, and it is useless."

"I'll wait and see King Jing invade my Great Qin safely?!" Zhao Yang glared at Han Shen, the crossbow general who spoke. "The rate of King Jing is only 3,000 people."

"If I have a horseman, I may be able to go around and charge him." Another lieutenant offered a plan, but this plan was to draw cakes.

"When the witch weapon is fired, it spits out fire, and when it stops, someone pretends to be a arrow. When the crossbowman runs out of arrows, so does the witchcraft. "Zhao Yong said what he thought in his heart, although he is old, he is by no means mediocre." If a soldier rushes at him, he will not spin his heel when he dies, or he may be able to approach him and break his formation. ”

"What General Zhao said is very true, but most of the soldiers under his command are old and weak, and when they hear the sound of witch weapons, they are already frightened, and it is difficult to rush." Zhao Yong is reasonable, but Zhang Han transferred most of the crossbowmen from Xianyang, and there are less than 3,000 pawns.

"Report ——!" While Zhang Han was talking, there was a scout outside the tent. "General Yu, King Jing led the army to retreat and go out of the valley."

"King Jing has retired?" The generals were surprised, in fact, everyone had a hidden worry in their hearts, afraid that King Jing would lead the cavalry to gallop Xianyang, and with the power of that kind of witchcraft, Xianyang would be shocked. This is also the reason why everyone is holding the valley mouth, and now King Jing is leading the army to retreat, and after the hidden worries are gone, everyone has a kind of unwillingness: how can King Jing be released from Daqin like this? Counting the remnants of the army, he was less than 3,000 men.

However, unwillingness is just unwillingness, as soon as you enter the valley, the boatmaster cannot sail. The Qin army was infantry, and although the Chu army was not all cavalry, it could maneuver sixty or seventy miles in one night with one person and two horses in a light state. And along the Huangshui to the north is all valley roads, the Qin army has no possibility of detouring the front, and when it reaches the north of Huangcheng, the terrain is already a pass, and it is even more impossible to intercept. What is the geography of the first line of Huangshui, all the generals know it in their hearts. They knew that King Jing had really run away this time.

"Zhang Han!" In the Qutai Palace, Zhao Zheng stared at Zhang Han who was kneeling under the case, if his eyes could be ignited, Zhang Han would have been burned.

"The minister is guilty! The minister is guilty! "Zhang Han paused again and again." Please punish the king. ”

"Punishment?!" Zhao Zheng gritted his teeth, and his face became more and more gloomy.

"The Great King." Seeing that Zhao Zheng was about to deal with Zhang Han again, Wei Yi, who recommended him, had to speak.

"What did Wei Qing say?" Zhao Zheng's fiery gaze turned to Wei Yu. "Do you want to exonerate him?"

"Definitely." Wei Yi waved his sleeves, "The minister asks for credit for General Zhang." ”

"Please?!" Zhao Zheng's breathing was even more urgent, if it weren't for Wei Yi, he would almost drink heavily.

"Yes." Wei Yu knew that Zhao Zheng was angry, but he could only admonish him like this. "King Jing has such a magic weapon, I don't know. General Zhang forced King Jing to use his witchcraft to get out of trouble. Dare to ask the king, what will happen if his army and the two armies of the Jing people face off against each other, and the king of Jing suddenly uses his magic weapon to break our army's formation? ”

"Where did you get the witch weapon?!" Zhao Zheng became more and more angry, "These are all illusory words. The widow has ordered the Imperial Governor's Mansion to investigate the matter thoroughly. ”

"The Great King is also false." Wei Yi heard that King Jing of Qin Huiwen's tomb was out of trouble, and he was also deeply suspicious of the 'King Jing Envoy' reported by the commander of the army, but Wang Ao was his disciple, and Wang Ao he absolutely trusted. "Please stand back from the king."

Wei Yi is a national lieutenant, Zhang Yi and Fan Sui, whom Zhao Zheng relied on, and when he asked for this, Zhao Zheng had to endure his anger and swing back.

"The words of the minister can only enter the ears of the king." After withdrawing left and right, Zhao Gao, Zhao Yong, and Zhang Han were still in the hall.

"Stand down." Zhao Zheng waved again. At this time, Wei Yu summoned a person from the hall, who came in a hurry with a wooden box.

"King, please see, the witchcraft used by this King Jing is also." A black ball was carefully removed from the wooden box - as expected, the grenadiers were unreliable, especially when it came to secrecy. After Wang Ao reported that King Jing had used a magic weapon that could breathe fire and make loud noises, Wei Yi immediately ordered people to search the tomb carefully and found this thing in the grass.

"That's it...... King Jing Witch Weapon? Zhao Zheng's face changed several times, looking at the black ball with some fear, he was worried that evil ghosts would emerge from the ball.

"Yes, yes." Having studied the entire black ball, he carefully opened the bottom cover of the charge and removed the gunpowder wrapped in silk. "The ball is made of evil gold, but I don't know what is contained in the silk."

"It's a witch weapon, how is this, how is it ......" The cast iron ball was not weird, and the silk was also very familiar, but Zhao Zheng didn't dare to look at the things wrapped in silk.

"Since it is a witch weapon, there should be a blessing (mantra), and the minister does not know it." Wei Yi is a remnant of the Yin Shang dynasty, and in line with the nature of the Yin people, he believes that witchcraft can only be used if it is used with a blessing, but he does not know that it is lit by an open flame.
