Chapter 62 Success is imminent

Ju Cheng and Wei Bing were still debating in the Qin camp, and some of their words made the fledgling Huan Chong at a loss. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Ju Cheng continued: "Although our army won a small victory this time, it also exposed the target, Handan and the nearby cities do not know, they will definitely mobilize troops and horses to besiege our army, if they do not retreat, the situation of our army will be dangerous."

Huan Chong felt that there was some reason and asked: "How to arrange it with the general."

Ju Cheng pointed to the map and said: "The fertile fields here are all plains, our army retreated a hundred miles and set up camps, while hoarding grain and grass while dividing troops to attack the nearby Zhao army, if the Zhao army at this time comes to attack me with all its strength, we can send a part of the soldiers and horses to pretend to stick to the camp, and take advantage of the empty internal forces of the Zhao State to attack the city, the Zhao people will inevitably return to our army to ambush them, so that the Zhao people are exhausted, but we have taken the initiative on the battlefield, and it is only a matter of time before Xu Tu advances to break through Handan."

Wei Bing was taken aback when he heard what Ju Cheng said, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Ju Cheng was a "talent", and he was afraid that Huan Chong would listen to his suggestion, so he hurriedly said to Huan Chong: "General Ju's plan is not appropriate, the general has ordered to attack Handan as soon as possible, how can we delay a lot of time here, and if our army is delayed here If Li Mutian comes out to encircle and suppress our army, most of the soldiers and horses in Handan have already been transferred out because of the continuous campaign, and our army has a large number of light and heavy cavalry that can be used for long-distance attacks, and if the night is a rapid march can be reached under the city of Handan in less than half a day."

Although Huan Chong felt that Ju Cheng's strategy was good, when he heard Wei Bing's rebuttal, he remembered that his father died at the hands of Li Mu back then, so he said to the two: "Don't say it, General Ju and his soldiers and horses will stay tonight, and all the rest of the soldiers and horses will rush through here and go straight to Handan."

After finishing speaking, Huan Chong walked out of the camp, and Ju Cheng saw that Huan Chong's mind had been decided, and sighed and said: "Our army will be defeated here."

Wei Bing knew Ju Cheng's ability very well in his heart, and thought that Ju Cheng would always be a scourge if he lived, so he walked up to Huan Chong and said: "Big brother, according to the original deployment, Fei Ling and I have to take the lead, but now that Fei Ling and I are both injured, we will definitely not be able to fight, and General Ju is so strong that it is better to let the two of us guard the village and General Ju will go out with the army."

Huan Chong heard that it made sense, so he ordered Ju Cheng to go out with the army, Wei Bing and Fei Ling stayed in the camp, Ju Cheng agreed without thinking much after getting the news, at this time Wei Bing quietly walked outside the village and released a pigeon, the pigeon flew quickly to Zhao Ying, Liu Xiang found out and took out a note from the pigeon's feet.

After reading it, Liu Xiang learned all the battle plans of the Qin army, and also knew that Ju Cheng had to get rid of this person, so he summoned the generals and gave an order.

At night, the herald announced that the time had come, and Huan Chong ordered the soldiers and horses to move forward quickly.

When the Qin army was less than a hundred meters away from Duanling, he saw more than ten torches dotted in front of him, and the first one stood on the horse with a steel whip in one hand, Ju Cheng took a torch and walked to the front of the battle, but found that this person was Han Chao, so he said to Han Chao: "I thought who was the defeated general, didn't you follow Chen Ji to run here as a bandit."

Han Chao shook the double whip in his hand and said, "It's not too late to know when you fall to the ground."

After hearing this, Ju Cheng threw the torch in his hand and hit Han Chao with a knife, and when the torch flew in front of Han Chao's eyes, he was whipped by Han Chao and fell to the ground in two, Ju Cheng took advantage of the opportunity of Han Chao whipping the torch to rush with a knife, fortunately, Han Chao had already taken precautions and turned his wrist at the moment when he dropped the torch, and two long whips hit Ju Cheng's knife back.

Suddenly, sparks burst out, Han Chao's arms continued to press Ju Cheng's big knife hard, Ju Cheng saw this and took the big knife back in his hand, Han Chao's double whip distance was limited, so he didn't continue to resist the big knife, Ju Cheng shouted and burst out the strength of his whole body, and the broken tilt big knife picked up at a fast speed.

Han Chao hurriedly staggered the two long whips in his hand, but he didn't expect Ju Cheng to make such a big force, this blow forcefully picked off Han Chao's double whips, Han Chao was shocked to the point that his arms were numb and almost fell off the horse.

Han Chao was so tired that he shouted on horseback: "Retreat quickly."

The more than 20 Zhao soldiers who blocked the road all withdrew into the valley, Ju Cheng led the army to chase but found that there was a valley in front of him, because the night was dark, so Ju Cheng did not venture into the valley.

Huan Chong saw that the army had stopped, so he walked up to Ju Cheng and said to him, "General Ju, why do you stop marching?"

Ju Cheng said: "Now that the night is dark, and the valley in front of us is full of cliffs on both sides, if the enemy has an ambush in the situation of our army, it will be dangerous, it is better to order thirty cavalry to enter the exploration."

Huan Chong felt that Ju Cheng was reasonable, so he ordered thirty cavalry to enter the valley first, and Liu Xiang, who was ambushing on the top of the mountain, found that someone came in and was about to wait for the opportunity to give the order to release arrows, but he saw that the other party was only dozens of people from the number of torches, so he knew that these horses were just here to explore the way, so he said to the soldiers: "Don't let go of arrows, this is just the soldiers and horses of the Qin army."

After these horses circled the valley and saw that there was no ambush, they went back, and Huan Chong received their report and said, "All the men and horses have entered the valley."

Tens of thousands of soldiers of the Qin army entered the valley in a neat row, but they did not know that what awaited them would be a sea of fire.

Liu Xiang waited until all the Qin troops entered the valley, stood up and pulled out his longbow to look at a chariot and shoot, knocking down a horse on the left side of the chariot, causing the whole chariot to turn over, and all the soldiers of the Qin army were shocked and hurriedly set up a defensive position, but it was too late.

More than 5,000 archers of the Zhao army fired rockets into the valley, and these rockets ignited the thatch that had already been poured with oil on the flat ground, and the entire valley was on fire in an instant.

The number of chariots of the Qin army were overturned to the ground because of the arrows of the war horses, these overturned chariots were stuck in the middle of the road and blocked the road, many Qin soldiers struggled to flee for their lives in the sea of fire, and the formation soon became a mess, Huan Chong saw this and hurriedly shouted: "The infantry shield first covers the cavalry to withdraw from the valley."

The Qin army had reached the most rugged part of the valley, and the cavalry retreated to the mouth of the valley under the protection of the infantry, but because there were too many people to block the valley, it was difficult for these cavalry to take a step back and only be beaten passively.

At this time, there were countless people who were hit by arrows in the valley, and Ju Cheng sighed deeply when he saw this scene and said: "Huan Chong, if you had listened to me earlier, how could you have fallen to this point."

Ju Cheng held down his knife and drew his bow and shot an arrow to the top of the mountain, this blow knocked down a Zhao soldier, Liu Xiang saw that he immediately mobilized more than fifty archers to release arrows at Ju Cheng, Ju Cheng waved the broken tilt knife to remove the rain of arrows and retreated.

The war continues. If you want to know what other strategies the generals have next, please see the next breakdown.
