Chapter 293: The First Battle

Chen Cheng of Chu State

As the former capital of the Chu State, Chencheng can also be regarded as a rich and majestic city. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info However, it is this city that records the history of the Chu State from prosperity to decline.

Sixty years ago, it was Bai Qi who defeated the Chu army and captured the old capital of Chu, Yingdu, that the king of Chu was forced to move the capital here. It didn't take long for Chen Cheng to be abandoned again and moved to today's Shouchun.

Although Chen Cheng has a lot of bad memories of the Chu State, as the front line of the anti-Qin war today, a large amount of grain and ordnance have indeed been hoarded here.

As an elite soldier of the Chu State, although the weather has begun to gradually cool down at this time, at all times, there are always diligent soldiers in the watchtower on the city wall, always keeping an eye on the movements of the Qin army outside the city.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Suddenly, on the east side of the city wall, there was a thunderous sound. Even the sturdy city walls shook faintly.

"Look! It's our people! ”

"General Long is here!"

"Your Majesty's reinforcements have arrived!"

On a tall handsome flag, a huge "dragon" character was reflected in the eyes of a group of Chu generals, which made the Chu pawns, who were still trembling, suddenly excited.

"Open the gates!"

At the gate of the city, there was a sudden sound of excited Chu pawns, shouting and screaming.

"Squeak!"

The city gate, which had been closed for a long time, revealed a trace of ancient and old atmosphere, and slowly opened in a puff of smoke and dust.

"General, as you said, the first to come was this dragon legion." Bai got up beside him, and Meng Wu, who was temporarily serving as a deputy general at the moment, said with a little surprise.

"Let the lads go! Try to see if the water of this dragon army is as deep as they have heard! Bai Qi said with a chuckle.

Meng Wu glanced at Bai Qi strangely, and couldn't help but scold in his heart, why did this person who seemed to be much older than himself always look old-fashioned.

However, on the surface, Meng Wu did not hesitate at all and directly agreed.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Beneath the black camp, a layer of smoke rose from the ground. It was the 10,000 Qin State light horsemen who had already been prepared and left the camp!

"General! Look! Beside Long Ao, an adjutant general pointed to the Qin cavalry in the distance like small black dots and exclaimed.

"I didn't expect that the Qin army would send troops so quickly!" Long Ao, naturally, also saw the Qin army that had already left the camp and came in line with them, and he couldn't help but be shocked by the reaction speed of the Qin army.

Originally, according to his plan, he entered Chen Cheng in a bright and bright manner, in order to strengthen his own momentum and increase the confidence of his own soldiers.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that the Qin army planned to rely on 10,000 light horsemen to directly block them from entering the city!

At this moment, the gate of Chen Cheng has been completely opened, and the Chu soldiers are also in a dilemma, hesitating whether to close the city gate again.

However, if the city gate is closed, then the Tenglong Legion must face the Qin army, and it must be defeated.

As the two sides got closer and closer, Long Ao, who had excellent eyesight, also saw clearly the general on the banner of the enemy who was coming.

"Mon? Could it be that it is Meng Wu, the deputy general of the Qin army? Long Ao's eyes couldn't help but flash a glimmer of light.

If he can fight the first battle and defeat the deputy general of the Qin army, he will definitely be able to severely demoralize the Qin army. It's just that Meng Wu, who can serve as the deputy general of the Qin army, will be so belligerent?

Long Ao's eyes became more and more solemn.

"Look! General Long, take the initiative to attack the Qin army! On the city wall, a Chu pawn shouted without shouting.

"Win! Win! ”

Suddenly, the Chu army, who was still struggling with whether to close the city gate, turned to cheer for Long Ao.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

More than 20,000 iron riders, like two black, and silver iron streams, far away, are about to collide together.

"Huh? So young, isn't it Meng Wu? ”

As the two sides got closer and closer, Long Ao found that the leader was actually a young man who was no more than the age of a weak crown, which obviously did not match the image of Meng Wu.

"Humph! I don't know how thick the sky is, and the Qin army can't help but underestimate our Tenglong Legion! ”

Seeing that the Qin army actually sent a kid to fight against him, despising himself so much, Long Ao couldn't help but feel a wave of anger in his heart.

Meng Tian, who was in the lead, looked at the Tenglong Legion that turned sharply, and couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

The Qin army's camp was located in the north, while the Tenglong army came from the east, and it turned sharply, and the left flank was inevitably unable to keep up. The formation also became a little messy.

"Attack to the left!" Meng Tian saw the opportunity and shouted.

"Boom, boom!"

Galloping horses, bright armor, and chilly swords. On the battlefield, iron and blood are the best symphony!

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

About a few hundred paces apart, the arrows on both sides struck like locusts.

The sound of muffled humming, the sound of falling horses, the neighing of horses, suddenly sounded. However, no one will stop for that. Because, after an arrow, the people on both sides are already close at hand.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”

This time, the neighing of the war horse was even more tragic. Under the supervision of Ying Zheng, Meng Tian's martial arts in this life are even more than before.

The halberd in his hand, under the wielding, can always take away several lives. It didn't take long for the dripping blood to stain his delicate armor a dark red.

"Humph! Newborn calves! Long Ao snorted lightly, and did not care about the left flank, which suffered serious losses, and directly led the Chinese army and went straight to Meng Tian's rear flank.

"General! The Chu army has gone around behind us! ”

After the first battle, a man who looked like a lieutenant rode a fast horse and rushed to Meng Tian's side, his face was full of blood, revealing a little anxiety.

"The rear army has suffered heavy losses, and if this continues, we are afraid that we will be attacked by the tail!"

Meng Tian's brows furrowed slightly, but above his rugged face, he was still cold and abnormal.

At this moment, the losses of the Chu army are obviously much greater than the Qin army, but if they are really attacked by the rank of the Chu army, then the Qin army under the passive will definitely suffer much more losses than the Chu army.

"Storm the gates!" The halberd in Meng Tian's hand pointed to the city gate that had not yet been closed, and shouted.

In the distance, in the camp of the Qin army, Meng Wu couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat when he saw Meng Tian attacking towards the flank of the Chu army.

"Hehe, this kid has a bit of guts." Bai Qi nodded lightly, and the color of approval in his eyes was overflowing.

"The general has won the prize!" Meng Wu, who was in a hurry, only regarded it as a word of relief from Bai Qi. After all, if these 10,000 light horsemen suffered heavy losses, the punishment Meng Tian faced would definitely not be light.

"Order, let's attack!" Bai Qi turned around and walked towards the lookout.

And during the same period of time, the 20,000 infantry troops that had been hastily assembled rushed out of the camp in a panic again.

"General?" Meng Wu looked at Bai Qi with some confusion. Even if you want to help Meng Tian, why do you want to send an infantry army? Wouldn't it be better to have ready-made cavalry?

"Hehe, you're not as good as your kid!" Bai Qi said with a chuckle.

"General, general, what do you mean?" Even Mengwu, who has experienced dozens of battles, is a little confused at the moment.

"Why do you think, your boy, to storm the city gates?"

Bai Qi turned his head, glanced at Meng Tian who was sprinting towards the city gate again, and continued: "If it is a boy from the Long family, continue to chase him, if these ten thousand people and horses are blocked at the city gate." Then Chen Cheng, we can take it today! On the contrary, as long as the boy of the Long family does not chase, he can turn around calmly, even if he retreats, he will not be so passive. ”
