The camping of the Great Qin army in the field has standards and norms.

There are five camps in the east, west, south, north and middle of the camp, and each camp has a separation zone several zhang wide in the middle, and there are drainage ditches in the isolation belt, of course, to prevent fires.

It was based on such strict standards that Yang Xiong didn't pay attention to the dozen or so camps that were burned by the arrows, and naturally there were five hundred foot soldiers sent out to deal with them before, and his energy at the moment was focused on the more than two thousand Jiangdong iron horsemen outside the camp.

When the more than 150 Jiangdong iron horses that were galloping back were still on the road, Yan Shihe and Gan Ke waved their hands and two hundred Jiangdong iron horses came out of the formation and rushed towards the camp.

Yang Xiong was secretly anxious when he saw this, he knew very well why this rebel army only used these small groups of cavalry to rush and kill, it was for the sharpest crossbow of Great Qin, if most of it attacked, it would just give Great Qin a chance to use his strong crossbow.

Although these small groups of cavalry can also use strong crossbows to deal with them, Yang Xiong knows that once he really does this, then it can be said that he has just fallen into the hands of the rebel general.

The Qin crossbow is very sharp and powerful. But the biggest weakness is that it can't be fired continuously, and after shooting a crossbow arrow, you have to stop and reload the crossbow. He believed that the rebel commander was waiting for this opportunity.

As long as he orders the army to fire a salvo, then the next second should be the time for this rebel army to attack in a big way. Although Yang Xiong didn't think that these two or three thousand cavalry could break through the camp, there were still thousands of cavalry missing, and he couldn't take this risk.

This second wave of Jiangdong cavalry did not shoot their bows and arrows when they were only more than 60 paces away from the main camp like the more than 200 Jiangdong cavalry in the first wave, but this wave of cavalry began to turn their horse-drawn bows and shoot arrows after only charging more than 60 steps.

And this distance is exactly the limit range of the Great Qin archers, a hundred steps. Obviously, the loss of more than 50 people just now made Yan Shi and Gan Ke change their tactics. After all, there are only more than 8,000 people in Jiangdong Iron Cavalry.

More than 200 rockets fell like meteors, and dozens of Great Qin soldiers fell to the ground with arrows! Most of the rest were shot at the wooden fence of the camp, which quickly burned, but fortunately there was a professional fire brigade with large bags of dirt covering it, and the fire was quickly extinguished.

The rebels were not discouraged at all, the second wave did not go back, and the third wave of two hundred knights came out again.

With a slight wave of Yang Xiong's hand, more than 500 Great Qin infantry soldiers suddenly raised the strong crossbows in their hands in unison, "humming" more than 500 crossbow arrows pierced through the darkness, and with a whistling and flashing dazzling cold light, they swooped down fiercely towards the more than 200 soldiers who were unscrupulously preparing to draw their bows and shoot arrows.

The five hundred people hurriedly retreated after releasing the crossbow arrows, followed by a row of more than five hundred crossbow arrows rising into the air, followed by a third wave of crossbow arrows! Yang Xiong was determined to leave the more than 200 people who came out this time.

Since all the Jiangdong Iron Cavalry were relatively scattered, he chose to divide them into three times and use 500 crossbows each time to make sure that he would not miss one.

"Retreat!"

Yan Shi and Gan Ke were shocked when they heard this voice, and shouted in unison.

But apparently it was too late.

Three consecutive waves of more than 500 crossbow arrows covered and blocked the front and back roads of the more than 200 horsemen who rode Jiangdong's disciples.

More than two hundred Jiangdong iron horsemen watched as dense crossbow arrows pounced from the darkness and burrowed into their bodies.

After a series of screams and screams of war horses, more than 200 horsemen, including men and horses, were shot into hedgehogs, and not a single person escaped from the sudden attack of three waves of strong crossbows.

The smell of blood began to permeate the quiet early summer night.

This is the first time that these Jiangdong iron horsemen have really faced death so closely, and the more than 200 robes who were shouting and laughing with themselves a moment ago have become broken corpses lying on the cold yellow earth in the blink of an eye.

The thick color of blood stung their tear-filled eyes!

"Great Qin! Great Qin! Great Qin! ”

Three earth-shattering shouts suddenly resounded through the night sky like monstrous waves!

It was more than 6,000 Great Qin foot soldiers beside Yang Xiong in the camp.

The blood of the rebel cavalry who had been unscrupulously galloping outside the camp was splashed on the spot, which made the thousands of Great Qin soldiers who had been holding their breath all excited, and they couldn't help but shout.

Hearing this cheer, the eyes of the remaining more than 1,000 Jiangdong disciples suddenly turned blood red!

Lying on the ground were their elder brothers, younger brothers, neighbors, partners who had grown up together, brothers who had trained and lived together for more than a year, and now these people were lying quietly on the ground, without a sound.

Grief and anger suddenly turned into bitter hatred for Qin Jun!

At this moment, there was a faint sound of muffled thunder in the east and west directions of the camp at the same time!

The sound of horses' hooves!

Yang Xiong's face changed! The retreating cavalry really arrived in the east and west camps!

Although Yang Xiong knew from these cavalry horses that these people must be elites, but with their little strength and advancing at the same time, he really thought that the Great Qin infantry soldiers were all muddy?

Yang Xiong smiled coldly. Immediately, he focused his attention on the front of the large battalion, which was obviously holding back more than 2,000 cavalry. Now that the troops have been divided, then there is no need to worry about being sneak attacked, Yang Xiong began to think about how to eat this bold cavalry.

Then I thought of what Wang told him when he left the camp with the army, that he should not leave the camp at any time! Yang Xiong hesitated again. The punishment for violating military orders is more important than the military merits in front of him, Yang Xiong is thinking in his heart.

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves in the east and west, Yan Shi and Gan Ke were startled, and the young general divided his troops to attack the camp at the same time.

They didn't know how many Qin troops were currently stationed in this big battalion, but from the more than 10,000 Qin troops in front of them, they knew that the strength of the eastern and western battalions would never be too small.

The two couldn't understand what Xiang Yu was planning, but obviously at this time, the Qin army in front of them must not be allowed to have a chance to rush to the aid of the Qin army in the east and west, and minimize the pressure on Xiang Yu and them to attack the camp.

"Kill!"

Yan Shi and Gan Ke shouted in unison. As he spoke, he rode his horse ahead and rushed out.

More than a thousand Jiangdong iron horsemen who had been staring at blood-red eyes finally heard the order of the two, and immediately beat the war horses under them and galloped wildly.

During the gallop, more than 1,700 Jiangdong iron horsemen gradually widened the distance between each other, forming a long zigzag scattered formation, and went straight to the camp.

Yang Xiong, who was still struggling, was overjoyed when he saw that these rebels had actually delivered themselves to the door! However, the scattered formation of the Jiangdong Iron Cavalry made him a little helpless, and in this case, Daqin's strong crossbow could not exert the power of the salvo at all.

Fortunately, in addition to the passage in front of the camp gate more than ten zhang wide, the rest of the place is densely covered with horse rejection piles and horse pits, so there is no need to worry that these cavalry can directly approach the camp.

"Bow, crossbow scatter!" Yang Xiong ordered loudly.

With his voice, Yan Shi and Gan Ke had already taken the lead in shooting the rockets on the bow, and more than a thousand Jiangdong iron horsemen who followed behind the two of them twisted their bows and opened arrows, and nearly two thousand rockets crossed the entire battalion and rushed down with a "whoosh" sound of breaking through the air.

The bows and crossbows of the Great Qin soldiers also began to be fired, and from time to time, the Qin army or the Jiangdong iron cavalry galloping like the wind fell to the ground. The front of the camp was already in flames at this moment, and the rockets of the Jiangdong Iron Cavalry set fire to the camp tents and fences in the camp.

The battle situation is in a stalemate for a while!

The fall of every Jiangdong Iron Cavalry made Yan Shi and Gan Ke feel a pain in their hearts, there were only 8,000 Jiangdong Iron Cavalry, each of them was extremely precious, and if one died, one would be less.

The tide of battle first began to change in the direction of Dongdaying.

The periphery of the camp walls of the east and west camps was not as dense as the arrangement of horse rejection piles and horse traps in front of the camp, and there were only a few trenches on both sides that were not too wide, and the ground was sprinkled with a few copper thorns and iron nails.

Xiang Yu and Long He led three thousand Jiangdong iron cavalry to attack the east and west camps, and Xiang Yu's side was the east camp.

The number of infantry soldiers of the Qin army in the eastern camp exceeded that of Yang Xiong's own army, with a full 7,000 people, which is why Yang Xiong was not worried at all. But he ignored the important variable of Xiang Yu, or he didn't know who Xiang Yu was at all.

The 3,000 elite cavalry that followed Xiang Yu can be said to be the most elite 3,000 of the 8,000 Jiangdong disciples, and Xiang Yu has always only worshiped two words: "attack"! Therefore, when he saw that the east camp was not as dense as the front of the camp, there were only a few trenches that were no more than a few feet wide.

With a wave of the "10,000 enemies" in his hand, more than 3,000 elite horsemen formed a huge fan with Xiang Yu as an arrow, and went straight to the camp wall without stopping.

He Qing commanded the seven thousand soldiers of the Eastern Battalion!

He didn't expect these rebels to be so bold, completely ignoring the trenches arranged outside the camp, and not tempting at all, and directly charging directly as soon as they came up.

Looking at the more than 3,000 Jiangdong iron horsemen who were getting closer and closer, a hint of mockery flashed in He Qing's eyes.

When there were still two hundred paces away from the camp, suddenly a few war horses let out a long mournful roar, and their front hooves suddenly fell to the ground, and several knights on the horses were also caught off guard, and they were suddenly thrown off their horses and rolled to the ground.

This change suddenly made Xiang Yu's iron cavalry charge formation chaotic, and the more than ten Jiangdong iron cavalry who followed behind these horses were about to crash into the war horses that fell to the ground.

"Up!"

With both hands, he pulled up the reins with heavy force, and jumped over the fallen war horse without a single hair. Then they all bypassed the knights who had fallen to the ground, and continued to maintain a scattered fan-shaped formation and went straight to the camp wall.

At a distance of more than fifty steps, dozens of war horses stepped on the iron nails on the ground one after another, and the horses stumbled and fell to the ground and died, but the formation of Xiang Yu's army was still intact, and they came straight to the camp like a mountain and a sea.

One hundred and fifty steps!

"Crossbow!"

A burst of shouts came from He Qing's mouth!

Hearing this explosion, the Great Qin soldiers who had been waiting for a long time pulled the trigger one after another!

"Buzz!"

More than 5,000 crossbow arrows formed a black light and rose from the air from the camp, with a sharp whistling sound and rushed straight towards Xiang Yu's army!
