Chapter 86: Zhou Wen escaped
So a tragic rebel captain named Tian Ji, with 10,000 people at the tail of the 200,000 army, stayed behind as cannon fodder.
10,000 people, it's a lot, but it's not much, it's not a lot to say less!
But with such low morale now, coupled with that feeling of abandonment, what combat effectiveness does 10,000 rebel infantry have?
It can be said that there is basically nothing.
was directly attacked by the three thousand Great Qin Iron Cavalry for two rounds, and most of the casualties were directly lost, and the rest were able to escape, and those who surrendered surrendered.
So, the 3,000 Iron Cavalry continued the pursuit.
zuihou, after Zhou Wen led an army of less than 190,000 and marched more than 20 miles, it was finally a tragedy.
The rapid march of thirty or forty miles made these peasant troops miserable.
The elite troops of the former army can stand up to it, but they are also tired enough. But the middle army and the rear army are directly slow, and they can't keep up with the front army at all.
The front army had a total of 50,000 horses, and the distance between it and the Chinese army was nearly half a mile.
The 50,000 Chinese army was a mile away from the rear army.
The nearly 100,000 rebels in the rear army could not run, and even if those officers pumped them and beat them, they would have struck.
And the 3,000 iron cavalry led by Ying Zheng are constantly impacting the rebel army.
The 100,000 front army of the 300,000 army pursued behind Great Qin was already less than two miles away from the rebels' rear army.
At this time, the strength of the peasant army and the regular army was clearly displayed.
However, the pursuit of thirty or forty miles also made these Great Qin Armor soldiers scold their mothers.
Finally, Zhou Wen had to issue an order, and directly asked the nearly 100,000 troops of the rear army to stop and resist directly
If it is said to resist, it is estimated that it is a direct surrender.
What strength do they have to resist?
In the end, the 100,000 horses of the rebel rear army surrendered after being directly caught up by the Great Qin front army.
And Daqin's pursuit did not stop, but continued to pursue the rebel Chinese army less than half a mile away.
Zhou Wen of the front army just wanted to cry when he saw that the rear army had surrendered en masse, it seems that it is estimated that the whole army will be wiped out tonight!
・・・
In an instant, the 100,000 armor soldiers of Great Qin came into contact with the 50,000 Chinese troops of the rebels.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The morale of the Great Qin armor was like a rainbow, and he violently killed the 50,000 rebels.
At this time, Zhou Wen's younger brother Zhou Wen, who led the Chinese army, penetrated his armor with blood, and drew his knife and roared, "Steady and steady!" ”
It's a pity that the defeat is like a mountain, and with such a low morale, where can it withstand the wrath of Great Qin?
Zhou Wu saw that the situation was extremely critical, but he knew that if he couldn't resist the pace of the Qin army, then his brother Zhou Wen in front of him would also be pursued.
At dusk, Zhou Wu looked back behind him, several generals and thousands of personal soldiers swore to accompany each other, and all of them were already soaked in blood.
In the distance, tens of thousands of men and horses have been completely defeated, and at this time, their 50,000 remnants are still fighting.
"If you pass it down, you must resist it for half an hour!"
"If you pass it down, you must resist it for half an hour!"
"If you pass it down, you must resist it for half an hour!"
Zhou Wu clenched the big sword in his hand and began to walk towards the Great Qin army behind.
Behind him, thousands of elites followed closely.
・・・
After a long and rapid march of more than twenty or thirty miles, including Zhou Wen, everyone was already so tired that they were about to lie down, and the physical strength of the officers and men of the whole army had been seriously overdrawn.
Zhou Wen looked back, and at this time, the vanguard of Great Qin had already exchanged hands with the Chinese army.
There was a gloom in his heart, in fact, he knew that it was impossible to retreat the 200,000 army.
Although it was more than ten miles away at that time, after all, this army was too big.
"Is it really the end of the road?" At this time, Zhou Wen, as the supreme general, asked himself in his heart.
If you continue to retreat like this? That's a dead end! No matter how much he runs, he can't outrun the Qin army.
And now they're so close.
Stop for a decisive battle with the Qin pursuers? It's still a dead end! Zhou Wen knew in his heart that these armies were the opponents of the Great Qin Armor? If it weren't for the Yingchuan City Wall, it is estimated that in a decisive battle, the 400,000 troops would be wiped out at one time!
A peasant is a peasant, an army is an army, and it is not won by numbers!
"Tell the front army, all go up the mountain!" In the end, Zhou Wen made this decision.
50,000 people, all up the mountain!
Only by hiding in the mountains will there be a chance to get rid of the pursuit of the Great Qin army, and at the same time, 50,000 people, it will not be so difficult to command, and they will be able to escape even more.
At this time, Zhou Wen has no choice, and now he can only take risks, I hope this decision can escape, Zhou Wen is looking forward to it.
"The general has an order, the whole army goes up the mountain!"
"The general has an order, the whole army goes up the mountain!"
"The general has an order, the whole army goes up the mountain!"
Suddenly, the 50,000 former troops led by Zhou Wen once again regarded the Chinese army as cannon fodder, abandoned them fiercely, and fled directly to the mountains.
At this time, the rebel Chinese army was killed by the army led by Ying Zheng and retreated again and again.
"King, Zhou Wenxiao'er ran away, he led 50,000 rebels into the mountains!"
At this time, Ying Zheng was killing Zhengshuang, and he saw Ying Qiang running to report to him.
"What?" After Ying Zheng listened, he then looked forward, and saw that tens of thousands of rebels at a distance of about a mile in front began to pour into the mountains next to him one after another, and those torches were sparsely lit.
"Then let them run, it's not easy to chase when you go into the mountains, poor Kou Mo chase, let's get rid of this place first!" Ying Zheng took a look, since Zhou Wen'er had hidden in the mountains, it was not easy to pursue, anyway, Yingchuan City was broken, and most of the 400,000 rebels were wiped out, so the next thing was to attack Chen County, and these small groups of defeated troops would not be able to achieve any climate.
"No." Win the strong way.
At midnight, the 400,000 troops of Yingchuan City were killed and surrendered to 350,000, and the remaining 50,000 were all hiding in the mountains in the dark.
Daqin did not pursue any further, but returned to the camp with those surrendered troops.
In Chen County, it was a few days after Chen Sheng received that Yingchuan City was broken.
"What, Yingchuan City is broken? Zhou Wen's whereabouts unknown? There are less than tens of thousands of people left in the 400,000-strong army? When Chen Sheng heard this military information, he almost vomited blood.
In less than three days, Yingchuan City was broken by Daqin's army, and the 400,000 troops were completely wiped out overnight!
Is the 400,000-strong army useless? Or is the Great Qin army invincible in the world? Chen Sheng asked himself in his heart.
At this time, Chen Sheng had already realized the true power of the Qin army.
Chen Sheng felt unprecedented pressure in his heart at this time.
Yingchuan City is broken, then the lion of Daqin will approach Chen County, but there are only 200,000 troops in Chen County, so can he resist the lion of Daqin? The 400,000 troops of Yingchuan City couldn't resist for three days, how many days could they resist? One day? Two days?
At this time, Chen Sheng remembered the letter of suggestion that Zhou Wen had written to him two days ago, saying that he wanted to recall Wu and Song's troops, and he was not too cautious as Zhou Wen at that time, but now he knows. The lion of Great Qin is not covered, it destroyed the Six Kingdoms and drove the Huns back then, this is the strength of Great Qin.
But now that they are going to be recalled, it is estimated that when they come back, Chen County will be breached.
But again had to go to the recall!
"Order, immediately recall Wu and Song generals will meet Chen County, 100,000 urgent!"
Zuihou, Chen Sheng still issued this urgent order.
