Chapter 72: The Battle of the Ambush Begins to Change
After Sima Zhi returned, after a while, the soldiers and horses of the Saluo Kingdom followed, and there were only about 200 zhang left from the ambush place of the Qin army. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Qin Feng looked at the enemy army that was getting closer and closer, and his heart blossomed, get closer! Come closer! Come closer, you people, and don't want to leave alive!
When the soldiers and horses of the Saluo Kingdom were only 100 zhang away from the Qin army, they only listened to Qin Feng's order: "Release the arrows"! Tens of thousands of bows and crossbows and arrows were fired in unison, like a big black carpet, and they rushed towards the soldiers of the Kasaro Kingdom.
Pi Liuli, who was shouting loudly on the horse, looked up and saw the rain of arrows that almost covered the sky, and was stunned for a moment! Ambush! Sure enough, there are ambushes! But with such a large formation, how many ambushes are there? If you add one piece to all the crossbowmen in the country of Salo, you can't shoot so many arrows!
How did he know that there were 50,000 sergeants in the headquarters of the Qin army, and each sergeant was equipped with a hand crossbow, although these hand crossbows were time-consuming to fill and issue, but in such a batch, there were nearly 20,000 arrows in each round of arrow rain. In this not very wide area, a sea of arrows has already formed, and the 50,000 army of the Kansaro Kingdom is like a small boat on the sea that will be overturned by the waves at any time, and life and death are only in an instant.
"Retire! Retire! There is an ambush"!
At this time, it was too late to retreat, and after a rain of arrows, the sergeants of the Saro-Kingdom fell to the ground with arrows. Then there was a second rain of arrows, then a third, a fourth!
The Qin army's arrows seemed to be endless, and the torrential rain was pouring down, covering the soldiers of the Kansaro Kingdom, although these soldiers were all holding shields in formation, but they still could not stop the powerful crossbows. Countless people were shot through shields and killed.
"Run! The shield can't stop it! Run! The military formation does not work"!
When the sergeant of the Kingdom of Kanzaro saw that his shield could not stop these arrows, he was so shocked that he could no longer care about any military formation. Towards the road from which they came, they scattered and fled.
Seeing that the Qin army's bow and crossbow were so powerful, the lord of the Kansaro Kingdom, Bi Liuli, was also under the protection of the Guards Regiment and rushed towards the city of Kansaro, in the direction of life, and ran for his life.
After they dispersed, the killing effect of the Qin army's bow and crossbow was indeed greatly weakened. Just when they thought they could get out of range of the arrows, they would escape. But they never expected that running out of this 100 zhang that heralded death, what was waiting for them was not a way of life, but two cavalry on the left and right of the Qin army, and the two roads were no less than 30,000 Qin army iron cavalry.
The two cavalry that came out of the dense forest were led by the generals of the Qin army and the city lords of the Vidi tribe respectively. They used their own cavalry as a unit, intertwined with each other, and completely divided the tens of thousands of troops of the Kansaro Kingdom into scattered small pieces outside the city of the Kansaro Kingdom, and then began to charge and kill in batches.
Where did the soldiers of the Sasolo Kingdom still have the slightest resistance at this time, like a flock of sheep, being chased by the Qin army. If you run a little slower, you will be stabbed to the ground by a spear from the Qin army, and if you run fast, you will be picked up by the oncoming Qin army with a shot.
Not only that, the Chinese soldiers led by Qin Feng also put away their bows and crossbows and held Zhangba spears, formed a military formation with each other, shouted loudly, and slowly slaughtered the soldiers of the Salo Kingdom in front!
The lord of the kingdom of Kansaro, Viruri, looked at the nearby city of Kansaro, and then looked at the tens of thousands of troops he led, like cream that had fallen into a pot of oil, melting little by little in the hot oil.
"My life is at rest"! With the knife in his hand, he had to kill himself on the spot, so as not to be captured by these Qin soldiers.
At this moment, I only heard the sound of rumbling horses' hooves in the direction of Kasaro City. The leader in front of him shouted loudly: "My lord do not worry! Hong Chou is also coming"!
Hearing this, Viliuli looked at the cavalry in the distance and shed tears of excitement. Putting away the sword that had been placed around his neck, he was overjoyed: "Warriors! Reinforcements are coming! Kill the past and join the reinforcements"!
Since ancient times, setting up ambushes is the most taboo for the enemy to come to help, even if it is only a small support army, it is also a big impact on the ambush. What's more, there are a lot of support troops in the country of Kansaro, and there are nearly 10,000 cavalry rushing in front, and the soldiers behind are even more visible.
When the sergeant of the Kasaro Kingdom saw that his reinforcements were coming, the fighting spirit in his heart germinated again. The Qin army is still those Qin army, and the sergeants of the Saluo Kingdom are still those sergeants, but the slaughtering momentum of chopping vegetables and melons just now ceased to exist in an instant!
After the soldiers of the Kansaro Kingdom, who were under siege, converged with the nearly 10,000 cavalry who came to the rescue, the soldiers and horses of the Kansaro Kingdom, who were obviously in a weak position, became a stalemate with the cavalry of the Qin army in an instant. With the hope of life, they naturally have the courage to live, because they know that if they don't kill the Qin army in front of them, they will not be able to go back to the city of Saluo that is close in front of them!
Seeing this, Qin Feng knew that this ambush might only end here! Just as he was preparing to give the order for the cavalry to open a gap and let the Sergeant of the Salo Kingdom go back. According to what he thought, once these soldiers saw that the way was wide open, they would definitely have no heart to fight and rush back to the city, and then the Qin army would take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and they could also add some more gains on top of the results of this battle.
At this time, Tan Ma reported that there was a large number of soldiers from the Scara Kingdom to the left and right of his army and to the rear, with no less than 70,000 or 80,000 soldiers, and these soldiers were outflanking the Qin army.
Out of what it must do, attack what it will save. Good strategy! Qin Feng exclaimed, it seems that there are capable people in this Saluo country!
Qin Feng hurriedly ordered the phalanx of soldiers not to move forward, but to form a formation on the spot in a defensive posture, and then ordered the cavalry who were killing in front to return to help as soon as possible!
After the cavalry of the Qin army retreated to help according to the order, they saw the command flag waved again and again in the hands of Hong Chou, the commander of the army of the Qin army, and the soldiers of the Qin army, who had formed an encirclement of the Chinese army of the Qin army, no longer advanced forward, but confronted each other from a distance, so that the Qin soldiers could not move at all.
After suppressing the Qin army, the cavalry of the Qin army was on the way back to help, and the military advisor Hong Chou asked the lord of the country to take the defeated army into the city slowly, and he led the soldiers and horses to bring the horses and weapons left on the battlefield back to the city of Kansaro together with the wounded soldiers.
And the 90,000 troops of the Qin army could only watch these soldiers of the Saro, after cleaning the battlefield, carrying the wounded soldiers one by one, pulling the war horses, holding the weapons, and leaving calmly.
After the cavalry of the Qin army came back to help, he looked at the three-sided army formation of the Saluo Kingdom that surrounded him on the left and right rear, and he was gearing up one by one, and wanted to rush to kill the Saluo State army formation now.
"General! What are these infantry troops worried about? The heavy armored cavalry of our Qin army, as long as they rush, they can rush away"!
Qin Feng shook his head and looked at the Warrior Pawn Phalanx in front of him, this was not an ordinary Pawn Phalanx, between each phalanx, there seemed to be an implied formation.
"Former general, these phalanxes of the soldiers of the Kansaro Kingdom seem to imply a formation, can you tell what kind of formation it is?"
As soon as Meng Xin brought the cavalry of his headquarters back to help, he felt that these phalanxes of soldiers were quite strange, and at this time, he was reminded by Qin Feng, and after looking at it carefully, he couldn't help but be surprised: "General, the phalanx arranged in front of our army should be the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation, the left side must be the Liuding Liujia Formation, and the right military array must be the Heaven and Earth Sancai Formation"!
Speaking of this, Meng Xin gasped: "General, these ancient military formations are the secrets that I don't pass on in China, even if I am a famous general in China, not everyone can arrange it, how can these Tianzhu people also arrange it?"
If these military formations were said to be set up by the Tianzhu people, Qin Feng would not believe it if he was killed, it seems that most of the capable people in this Saluo country are his own compatriots and people from China. And he has great talent, otherwise he will definitely not be able to lay out these formations.
"Former general, can you recognize it, can it be broken"?
Meng Xin lowered his head when he heard this: "General, although the last general knows this formation, he will not be able to break the formation. However, Zhisu Shi has studied the formation since he was a child, and if he is here, he will definitely be able to break it!"
Sima Zhi saw that the two of them didn't say how to rush and kill, but just said something about the bird formation, and hurriedly said: "General, even if he lays out the Rausch sub formation, you give the last general 10,000 iron horses, and the last general will be able to scatter them all!"
Qin Feng shook his head: "Ah Zhi, our cavalry has just fought repeatedly, and it is already the end of the crossbow, how can you still rush through these military formations!" Even if the soldiers are not tired, the horses also need to rest, and they will definitely not be able to survive this big battle!"
Sima Zhi listened and glared: "Then what?" Let them go back"?
Qin Feng smiled bitterly: "Go back?" People have to be willing! These military formations are quite extraordinary, and they can be attacked and retreated, and they can be defended. At this time, whether our army is attacking or defending, it is not sure to win! Ah Zhi, the situation of our army at the moment is quite dangerous! It's not that we can't let people go back, but whether they let me go back or not, I'll wait to go back!"
