The gate of Shouchun City slowly opened, and a group of Huainan troops drove out of the city under the leadership of Ji Ling, and quickly lined up a formation outside the city.

As soon as the city gate opened, Tai Shici, who had been waiting not far away with 10,000 Qin army iron cavalry, raised his arms high, and shouted to the Qin army cavalry lined up in a large array behind him: "Strong crossbow preparation!" ”

With Tai Shici's order, all the cavalry took off the crossbow from their backs from the knife bag on the side of the **** war horse in their hands.

One arrow after another was placed on the strong crossbow, and all the Qin cavalry, without exception, were ready to fire when they charged.

Staring at the Huainan army rushing out of Shouchun City, Tai Shici did not immediately order the whole army to attack.

There are not many Huainan troops out of the city, and since the city gate was opened, the Huainan army that ran outside the city was no more than 5,000 people at most.

Fighting with 5,000 Huainan infantry, the Huainan defenders on the city wall could easily shoot arrows to kill the Qin cavalry who rushed forward.

"General!" Tai Shi Ci was waiting for more Huainan troops to come out of the city, and an officer rode up behind him and whispered to him: "There are more and more Huainan troops, if our army does not charge again, it may be difficult to defeat them!" ”

Turning his head to look at the officer, Tai Shici didn't speak, but the corners of his mouth tugged slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"Remember, the whole army!" More and more Huainan troops lined up outside Shouchun City, and Tai Shici shouted to the heavy cavalry of the Qin army behind him: "Fight with the enemy, remember not to rush into the city!" ”

"No!" As soon as Tai Shici's shout fell, 10,000 cavalry responded in unison.

The cavalry of the Qin army lined up in formation on the opposite side, and on the wall of Shouchun, Yuan Shu held the battlements with both hands, his brows were furrowed, his eyes stared at the Qin army on the opposite side without blinking, and said to Yang Hong beside him: "The Qin army only puts cavalry on the opposite side, do you want to use cavalry to intercept my 70,000 army?" ”

"King Qin's use of soldiers has never followed common sense!" Yuan Shu's question was asked, Yang Hong was also at a loss, and said: "It is not impossible to block the 70,000 main force of our army with more than 10,000 cavalry!" ”

Listening to Yang Hong's words, Yuan Shu first frowned tightly, and then suddenly raised his face and laughed a few times, raised his hand and pointed to the cavalry of the Qin army led by Tai Shici, and said to Yang Hong: "10,000 cavalry, blocking 70,000 troops, if it is not the madness of King Qin, what is it?" ”

When Yuan Shu said this, although Yang Hong still felt a little unstable in his heart, he echoed and said: "What Your Majesty said is very true, King Qin is crazy when he thinks about it!" ”

The Huainan army that left the city gradually reached 20,000 people, and a large array of considerable scale was also set up outside Shouchun City.

Staring at the large array outside the city, Tai Shici turned his head and glanced at the Chinese army behind him.

The moment he turned his head, he saw the banner of the Chinese army suddenly swaying from side to side.

The flag shook and flew violently in mid-air, making a "whirring" wind sound.

Glancing at the banner flying fiercely in the wind, Tai Shici took down the double halberd from behind him, pointed forward, and shouted: "The whole army charges!" ”

As soon as the shout fell, Tai Shici's legs clamped the horse's belly, and he took the lead in riding the horse and rushing out.

Seeing him rush out, the 10,000 heavy cavalry of the Qin army all clamped their legs between the horse's belly and followed him closely, rushing towards the Huainan army near the city gate like a tide.

I thought that the heavy cavalry of the Qin army was just intercepting the Huainan army out of the city, but I didn't expect that they would dare to take the initiative to charge, standing on the city wall Yuan Shu saw this scene, he was stunned at first, and then hurriedly shouted to the Huainan army on the city wall: "Release the arrow!" Shoot the arrows! Shoot them! ”

Yuan Shu's order was issued, and the Huainan army on the city wall did not dare to slack off, and they set up arrows on the strong bows one after another, and shot towards the heavy cavalry of the Qin army that had already launched a charge under the city.

Countless arrows rained down on the heavy cavalry of the Qin army, but the heavy cavalry of the Qin army in the charge did not take off their shields to block, but one by one they held strong crossbows and fired crossbow arrows at the large array of the Huainan army on the opposite side.

The rain of arrows falling from the city flew towards the heavy cavalry of the Qin army, and one by one the heavy cavalry in the charge or the arrows from the war horses under their crotches fell to the ground.

But the arrows they shot also caused trouble to the Huainan army, which had just formed a formation and countless people were moving outside the city.

The Huainan army's array, which had not yet been fully formed, did not form an effective defense at all, and the arrows fired by the heavy cavalry of the Qin army flew into their array, and one by one the Huainan army fell under the feathered arrows.

"Kill!" The double halberd in his hand flicked towards both sides, and Tai Shici let out an angry roar and rushed into the Huainan Army's large array first.

The war horse slammed into the big shield of the Huainan army in front, and the Huainan army holding the big shield snorted, and flew backwards in the air, knocking over the companions behind them.

More and more heavy cavalry of the Qin army followed behind Tai Shici and collided with the large array of the Huainan army.

Before colliding with the big array, the heavy cavalry of the Qin army carried the strong crossbow back to their bodies, drew out the Pu knife, took off the round shield, and while knocking over the Huainan army in the front, they brandished the Pu knife and rushed into the array of the Huainan army.

The archers of the Huainan army on the city wall shot arrows closer and closer to their own large array, and later, the arrows fell on the heavy cavalry of the Qin army, and even accidentally injured their own soldiers.

There were more and more Huainan troops pouring out of the city, and the Qin army looked a little thin in the encirclement of the Huainan army.

The Huainan army, which fired arrows at the head of the city, gradually did not dare to shoot arrows under the city wall, and they all just put their feather arrows on the bowstring, but their eyes looked at Yuan Shu, who was also standing at the head of the city.

Looking at the battlefield below the city with both hands on the battlements, Yuan Shu saw that the heavy cavalry of the Qin army was gradually crushing the formation of the Huainan army.

The Huainan army that poured out of the city gate was rushed back and forth by a group of Qin heavy cavalry, and many Huainan troops did not die under the Qin army's simple sword, but died in the collision of the Qin army's war horses.

Rushing into the Huainan Army array, the double halberd in Tai Shici's hand flew up, constantly stabbing the Huainan Army beside him.

One by one, the Huainan army fell under his double halberd, but more Huainan troops continued to pour towards him like a tide.

More than a dozen Huainan soldiers rushed to Tai Shi Ci's approach, raised their short spears in their hands, and stabbed down fiercely at Tai Shi Ci.

At the moment when a dozen short spears pierced him, Tai Shi Ci let out a loud shout, and one arm stirred around, stirring all the dozen short spears under his armpit.

Then he let out a loud cry again, and with a twist of his body, more than a dozen Huainan soldiers were thrown out of the army by him like throwing a cloth bag.

Ji Ling, who led the Huainan army to rush out of Shouchun, saw Tai Shi Ci rushing to the front, and he had the heart to step forward to fight, but seeing Tai Shi Ci so brave, he felt a little empty in his heart, and he didn't dare to ride a horse to Tai Shi Ci with the reins in his hand.

"Kill! Rush up and kill! Not daring to kill Tai Shici, Ji Ling waved the blade in his hand and shouted loudly to the Huainan army that was facing outside the city.

The soldiers on both sides were mixed together, and there were shouts of killing all around.

But even so, Tai Shici still heard Ji Ling's shout.

He turned his head and glared at Ji Ling, pinched his legs on the horse's belly, and shouted: "Ji Ling, take your life!" He rushed straight towards Ji Ling.

Seeing Tai Shi Ci rushing towards him, Ji Ling felt a little empty in his heart at first.

But he also knew that if he retreated at this time, or ordered the soldiers to go to block Tai Shici, it would be a great blow to the morale of the whole army.

In this battle, the Qin army rushed too suddenly, not only was Yuan Shu at the head of the city defenseless, but even Ji Ling did not expect that the Qin army would dare to take the initiative to charge the Huainan army, which was far outnumbered by them.

Due to the sudden rush of the Qin army, the Huainan army, which was not ready, was not fully boosted in morale at all, and was hurriedly drawn into the battle. “

Thinking of this, Ji Ling couldn't care about that much, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and he greeted Tai Shi Ci with his blade.

As soon as the two horses intersected, Tai Shici waved his halberd and slashed down towards Ji Ling.

The double halberd slashed down, Ji Ling shouted, raised the three-pointed two-edged knife in his hand, and blocked it against the double halberd.

Tai Shi Ci's split was not the slightest bit fancy, and the double halberd slashed the three-pointed two-edged knife, which directly shocked Ji Ling's back wall and made him numb.

Leading the army to conquer the battlefield, Ji Ling has also seen many tough opponents in Yulu, but he has never seen a fierce general like Tai Shici who can make his arms numb with just a single slash, and the blade in his hand almost fell to the ground!

Just blocking this split, Ji Ling felt that there was a considerable disparity in strength between him and Tai Shi Ci, and raised the blade in his hand towards Tai Shi Ci, taking advantage of Tai Shi Ci's short halberd to block, turning around the war horse, and riding the horse to run out of the battlefield.

On the city wall, Yuan Shu saw Ji Ling fighting with a general of the Qin army, and was about to ask someone to beat the drum to help Ji Ling fight, but suddenly saw him spinning around his horse and fleeing towards the periphery of the battlefield, he was suddenly startled, and asked Yang Hong behind him: "What is Ji Ling doing?" ”

Seeing this scene in the same way, Yang Hong was also full of astonishment, and when Yuan Shu asked this sentence, he subconsciously replied: "Could it be that General Ji Ling is not as good as General Qin?" ”

Just when Yuan Shu and Yang Hong were both looking at Ji Ling with a shocked expression, Ji Ling, who was being chased by Tai Shi Ci very closely, knew that if he ran like this, he would be caught up by Tai Shi Ci sooner or later.

The two fierce generals fought under the city, although Tai Shici said that his martial arts were stronger than Ji Ling, but he would not be able to pick him off the horse for a while.

Yuan Shu and Yang Hong at the head of the city watched the battle under the city, and almost sighed at the same time, Yang Hong even said to Yuan Shu: "General Ji thought that it was difficult to fight with the enemy army in the army, so he deliberately ran to the empty realm to kill the enemy general!" ”

Holding the battlements with both hands, Yuan Shu nodded and said to Yang Hong: "Pass the order, beat the war drums, and help General Ji fight!" ”

"No!" Clenching his fists and bowing, Yang Hong responded, and then shouted to the soldiers behind him: "Beat the war drums and help General Ji fight!" ”
