The Qin army's messy crossbow arrows just showed that they had also arrived here temporarily, and had entered the battle before they had fully entered the position.

Su Qin immediately understood: Fortunately, it was because he woke up more than a quarter of an hour earlier that the large army did not completely enter the ambush circle of the Qin army.

Probably because he ordered the troops to stop advancing, Sima Cuo understood that the ambush plan had been discovered, so he temporarily decided to launch an ambush battle in advance, right?

Under the current situation, rushing for time is the most important, and Su Qin must immediately convey his general order.

Before the herald rushed back to the Chinese army, Su Qin urgently used the guards around him to convey the order, and he didn't care if he had someone to protect him.

Su Qin gave orders to the forty or fifty colonels guarding the Chinese army, and told them to rush to various places desperately to give orders: order all the coalition troops to immediately change from the rear to the front and retreat backwards in an organized manner without a moment's delay.

Su Qin hurriedly ordered General Yan Sui to rush to the front, leading the original vanguard to break the rear, and be sure to block the pursuit of the Qin army. Retreat while fighting, do not fall in love with the war, and do not stay.

He ordered General Zhou Shao to lead the troops in the middle section to cover the retreat of the main force of the coalition army, organize an effective counterattack, and if there were anyone who could climb the rock, they would be selected immediately, climb the mountain to engage the Qin army, and eliminate the terrain advantage of the Qin army. Not to occupy positions, but to kill and wound the crossbowmen of the Qin army, and reduce their volleys.

Qu Xin, who was originally the queen of the palace, led the army to immediately turn the horse's head and change it to a vanguard force. Qu Xin was ordered to command all the troops behind the original palace and retreat in an orderly manner. If it is intercepted by the Qin army, it must be disrupted and scattered, and the pursuit will be exhausted, so as not to leave hidden dangers for the subsequent retreating troops.

These Chinese army guards who were responsible for conveying orders were divided into three groups and immediately went to the location of Yan Sui, Zhou Shao and Qu Xin to convey the commander's orders. The reason why Su Qin sent so many people to pass the order was that the situation was extremely critical, and if the order could not be conveyed, the consequences would be extremely serious.

Su Qin was anxious and regretful at this time, so anxious that he was worried that the coalition army would be trapped and died in this valley, and regretted that he did not carefully assess the possibility of leaking secrets in the coalition army's combat plan yesterday, so it led to today's predicament.

Su Qin was in a hurry, so he simply abandoned the military vehicle and did not sit, and ordered the junior colonel to lead a war horse and ride on the horse to command the troops to retreat in an orderly manner.

Su Qin himself also organized nearly a thousand soldiers who were good at rock climbing around him, and ordered them to climb to the top of the mountain on his side under the leadership of two brave captains, and when they reached the top of the mountain, they killed many crossbow archers pursued by the Qin army.

Su Qin looked at the Qin army running on the high mountain, and then looked at the soldiers who kept falling around him, his heart was about to jump to his throat, and he really wanted to climb the mountain with those two captains and kill the crossbow archers who were ambushed by the Qin army.

However, he is now the commander of the three armed forces, how can he easily leave the command post of the Chinese army! In desperation, he could only try his best to make a posture as steady as Mount Tai and unwavering, and while pulling away the feather arrows, he shouted to the soldiers: "Close to the rock wall, retreat in an orderly manner." The more panicked you are, the easier it is to get shot, so be calm! ”

The junior colonels of the Chinese army around Su Qin were worried about his safety, and they came to persuade him one after another: "Please board the chariot, it is very dangerous outside." ”

But Su Qin waved his hand to them, he was still willing to stay on horseback, personally command the retreating soldiers, face them directly, and let them see the figure of the commander, so that the retreating troops would be much more stable and steady.

After another half an hour, the heralds rushed back from all over the place, and they were the first to set out to convey the order to stop the advance, but the situation on the temporary battlefield changed, and the troops fell into panic, so they were hindered on the way back.

Su Qin asked about the situation of the battle in the rear, only to know that Lu Daoyan was already in place, and he commanded nearly 10,000 people from Qi and Zhao to intercept the pursuit of Shi Hong, the general of Qin, in the back.

When Su Qin heard Shi Hong's name, he felt a sense of familiarity, and after thinking about it for a while, he remembered that this person had also participated in the war of the Qin State to destroy the Yiqu State, and he was Sima Cuo's subordinate at that time. It seems to be a big man with a black face, and he is very brave in battle, and he is used to using an iron spear.

Su Qinxin said: "This Shi Hong is also a general who can fight well, it seems that the troops behind the palace will not be easy, the pressure on Yan Sui will be very great, and the situation is more difficult." ”

Su Qin's expectations were not bad at all. The difficulties encountered by Yan Sui were much more serious than he imagined, because he not only had to block the Qin army's pursuing troops, but also had to guard against the Qin army's crossbow archers who were constantly firing arrows on the mountain.

A good Yan Sui, in the end, he is also a person who fought out from the military formation of thousands of troops, from the army in his youth, he has been in the army many times in the Qi army, and later because of his courage and tenacity, outstanding martial arts, so he was selected as a palace guard, closely protecting Qi Wangtian and becoming the monarch's four major personal guards. However, the fate was not good, but he was induced by the charm of the East China Sea, and he narrowly attacked the king, and under the rescue of Su Qin, he was able to return to the army and charge on the front line again.

Yan Sui hid Su Qin's grace for rescue deep in his heart, so when he encountered the battle array, he never flinched and was loyal, which was also the reason why Su Qin liked to keep him by his side.

Now that it was 100,000 urgent, Yan Sui shouldered the burden unyieldingly, he gritted his teeth, determined to resist desperately and complete the task.

The feather arrows that Yan Sui encountered were not as sparse as Su Qin's location, and the Qin army in the middle did not completely enter the position, so the feather arrows seemed to be much sparse and messy.

And the rear where Yan Sui was located was the area where the Qin army was waiting for him, and they entered the position where they had ambushed in advance, and the crossbow archers of the Qin army took turns to release arrows, and the dense crossbow arrows were like flying snowflakes, splashing towards Yan Sui's side.

Yan Sui commanded the army to continuously shoot at the Qin army's crossbow arrow position, and the two sides released a burst of arrows on one side, attacking in turn like a bamboo among plum blossoms.

However, the troops behind the palace could not stay still for a long time, so they had to hurry forward for a while when the Qin army's feather arrows stopped slightly, and if they encountered the Qin army's arrows again, they quickly looked for a hidden place to avoid the Qin army's crossbow arrows.

In this way, the marching speed of the troops behind the palace was greatly affected, and after about half an hour, the Qin army rushed up from the mountain road, they lined up in a neat queue, and the leader of the general had a big waist and a round waist, holding a black spear, which was more than a foot long, and the tip of the spear pointed forward, and ordered the Qin soldiers under his command to hurry forward to catch up.

Yan Sui saw that the troops behind the palace of the coalition army led by him were constantly attacked by the Qin army ambushed in the crossbow arrow position on the mountain, with a large number of dead and wounded, and they had to fight and retreat; The troops pursued by the Qin army advanced lightly, moved quickly, and were not threatened by feathered arrows.

He knew that if he was just allowed to be slaughtered by the other party and helpless, the troops of the palace he led would soon be completely defeated by the Qin army.
