Battle of Changping Chapter 053 The retreat of the Qin army is unsustainable

When the elite cavalry of the Qin and Zhao army finally arrived at the gate, what was waiting for them was the sharp soldiers of the Qin army who had already adjusted their formation.

In the middle, a phalanx of shield soldiers and spearmen was formed to resist the possible advance of the Zhao cavalry;

On both sides, light cavalry pressed the position, and at the same time resisted the attack of the Zhao army's archers;

The archers of the rear army covered the retreat in three groups, the first group marched, the second group prepared, and the third group shot arrows, and then the third group turned to march, the second group shot arrows, and the first group took bows; And so on, always with a rain of arrows in the air. (Imagine the three or three formations of our army.) Even reinforced with crossbows at the junction of the various armies, cutting off all opportunities for the cavalry of the Zhao army.

As for the top of the barrier, the Qin army everywhere was centered on the captain, with the shield in front and the spear behind, forming a circle as a whole, and the colleagues who were slowly retreating behind the barrier rested the soldiers through slow rotation. Preserve the vitality as much as possible.

Circular formations slowly formed on top of the barrier like bubbles, gathering together towards the largest bubble of the Qin army's base camp.

Of course, such an obvious retreat intention of the Qin army was naturally discovered by the Zhao army very quickly.

There is no need for more instructions from Zhao Kuo, "beating the water dogs" is a necessary kung fu for every strong army! The Zhao army on the barrier saw the retreating Qin army, and one by one they charged at the Qin army as if they had been stimulated.

Even the peasant troops that Zhao Kuo intended to replace also burst out at this time, in addition to their amazing combat power, brandished the long knife in his hand and attacked the Qin army.

The reason why Zhao Kuo dared to change to these not elite teams was naturally the idea of reducing the losses of the main force, but it was more about letting this "reserve army" composed of elite troops and farmers see blood on the battlefield and become a real "army" as soon as possible.

And Zhao Kuo dared to act like this, just because he had already seen through Qin Jun's plan to release water. Such an army under his command, which is not an "army", just took such an opportunity to train his courage. This is a strong army of the people, and nothing else is good, and it is not a problem for the fox to fight a tailwind battle with a fake tiger.

At least, after experiencing the breath of death on the battlefield once, this mixed army of people and strong can give a little strength in the subsequent big war.

As a result, the retreat of the Qin army became a sad road for every Qin soldier who climbed the barrier.

In the process of retreating for more than ten meters in a short period of time, the Qin army quickly suffered the most jealousy from the Zhao army from all directions.

The arrow smashed into the head of the Qin army as if it was not money, and then the cavalry of the Zhao army, the foot soldiers, rushed up, just blocked the ruthless iron hooves of the Zhao army, and another spear stabbed over there, turned around and grazed the spear, and another long knife was already waiting on his own way.

With a poof, the skin on the neck has been cut by a long knife!

Blood spilled from the knife edge, and the energy of the whole body was also vented from the knife edge. Finally, the cold hands could no longer hold the huge long sword.

With a "dang bang", the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.

Immediately afterward, his eyelids were like the heavy city gate, smashing down incessantly, and the dazed Qin soldiers glanced around, trying to ask their comrades for help, but everywhere they saw was a fiery red, where were the comrades in black!

It turned out that taking advantage of the gap between the Qin soldiers being stabbed, the circle formation of the Qin army moved back a few steps slightly.

"Good! All right! Qin Zu's fiery heart gradually cooled. Finally, before Zhao Jun's other long knife came to his body, there was a bang, and the huge Qin pawn fell to the ground, completely cold from the inside out.

It can be said that every step of the Qin army's withdrawal from the fortress was paved with the corpses of the Qin army's soldiers.

For a while, the losses of the Qin army were heavy, even worse than the battle just now. In just a few hundred steps, the Qin army left behind thousands of corpses.

Fortunately, after the Qin army on the barrier was incorporated into the camp, it was temporarily safe.

With the retreat of the Qin army, the Zhao army gradually occupied the entire barrier, and the "Zhao" flag finally rose on the Qin army barrier on the east bank of Danshui! One side, two sides...... Countless flags were bright red under the light of the rising sun, almost turning the black barrier into a sea of red.

The Zhao army was filled with the joy of victory, and the shouts of the sky resounded throughout the west bank.

Countless generals of the Zhao army tried their best to maintain their majesty, but in the face of such a great victory, even if they tried to restrain themselves, their hearts were still excited, and they didn't know where to put their hands, and even wanted to sing loudly.

This is the barrier of the Qin army on the west bank!

This is the Qin army that has been confronting himself for three years, and has always forced his own army into a desperate situation!

"It's been three years, do you know how I've spent these three years!"

Finally, a voice of "Zhao Jun is mighty!" "The atmosphere above the walls was pushed to a climax.

"Zhao Guo Wannian!"

"Zhao Jun is mighty!"

Roars resounded one after another on the west bank fortress, which had been completely occupied by the Zhao army, and the bright red flags were shining under the rising sun, and the waves continued to roll on the black barrier with the morning breeze. ’

Even if he knew that it was the barrier that Qin Jun took the initiative to abandon, seeing the scene of the red waves rolling, and hearing the shout that resounded in the sky, Zhao Kuo still felt a burst of joy in his heart - his plan to fish in troubled waters and change the sky had already become most of it.

However, compared to more Zhao Jun, Zhao Kuo's happiness was short-lived.

Because Zhao Kuo clearly knew that this victory was simply given by the Qin army, and the real danger was coming towards him and his sons step by step.

Zhao Kuo knows better that many times the joy of victory will also be the poison of killing, especially in this ancient and unparalleled war, at this time, if you are happy for a while, you may need to pay the price of countless lives. To survive this damned war as much as possible, he and his men must immediately break free from the joy of victory.

"Herald." Zhao Kuo interrupted the cheers of the soldiers and heralds around him.

"In!" The herald was slightly stunned, but the long training still made him quickly restrain his expression, and then he clasped his hands into fists and replied loudly.

"In the first order, the army of the northern, central and southern routes, with Sun Gu's middle road as the mainstay, overcame fatigue, took the cavalry as the lead, and quickly launched a rapid and fierce attack on the Qin army fleeing west. Tell Sun Gu not to think about a detour to encircle, just pursue head-on, do everything possible, and try to kill and injure the living forces of the Qin army as much as possible! Zhao Kuo ordered solemnly

"Yes!" The herald was immediately ordered.

"Slow!" Zhao Kuo shouted to the herald who was about to leave, and added: "With a limit of thirty miles, you must not chase it too deep!" Tell Sun Gu: The cavalry charges into battle, the foot soldiers sweep the tail, and they are not allowed to fight. ”

"Yes!" The herald said yes again.
