Battle of Changping Chapter 071 The South Camp was Broken and the North Road was in danger

Obviously, this blow hit the soft underbelly of the Qin army, the shield soldiers could not protect the cavalry of the tall horses, and the interspersing of the cavalry also limited the speed of the Qin army's foot soldiers, so the bow battalion after several adjustments finally made a contribution, and finally caused "greater" damage to the main force of the Qin army.

Unfortunately, it was already too late.

The Zhao army that fell under the rain of arrows, spears, and swords of the Qin army is already countless, and more importantly, the Great Bow has fallen, the main general is gone, and no matter how many kills and injuries there are, it is already too late to face the current situation.

No matter how stupid a person is, when he sees Da Xu's fall, he should know that this battalion of Zhao Jun is finished! And the rear military captain, who was able to quickly assemble his own archers, naturally understood better what it meant for Daxu to fall.

Seeing that his own Chinese army had fallen into endless chaos, and the cavalry of the Qin army was also trying to pass through the chaotic Chinese army camp tent and rush towards the rear army, that is, where he was.

After all, the lieutenant couldn't care about anything, and shouted: "Withdraw!" He took the lead and retreated to the north with his own soldiers.

Only the following soldiers suffered, it was impossible to surrender, those who had war horses immediately rode war horses and fled to the north, and a few lively Qu Chang and a hundred generals organized their brothers to fight and retreat, and went to the jungle in the west.

Fortunately, the chaos of the Chinese army stumbled the Qin army. It also gave Zhao Jun in the rear army a little respite.

But in the end, the prominent part of the southern army of the Zhao army, a large battalion of nearly 10,000 people, was defeated by the whole line in less than half an hour under the thunderous offensive of the Qin army.

What's even more desperate is that the Qin army never wanted to fight a rout, in the north of the Zhao army's camp, a Qin army had already outflanked the past, and was waiting eagerly for the fleeing Zhao army to throw itself into the net.

As a result, the Zhao army that fled to the north, except for a few lucky ones who ran alone, were almost all intercepted and killed by the Qin army's partial division in the north, including the captain who fled first.

Instead, the knights who fled for their lives and the hundreds of foot soldiers who retreated to the west were able to escape.

The knights of the Zhao army, who had escaped by chance, frantically slapped the horses' buttocks, ignoring the horses, and sprinted in the direction of the march of the Zhao army, knowing that they must attack the Qin army in time and the news of the destruction of the southern army was transmitted back to the camp of the southern route army.

Because the southern Zhao army was originally responsible for defense, under the arrangement of the main general Li Jie, it did not concentrate the 50,000 main army in one place, but leaned forward and backward according to Zhao Kuo's instructions.

It's just that what Zhao Kuo and Li Jie didn't expect was that the important battalion that was responsible for monitoring the Jiepai leading the Qin army and assuming the early warning responsibility of the South Road Army, an army of tens of thousands of people, was actually defeated so quickly and so completely under the offensive of the Qin army. If it weren't for the hundreds of defeated soldiers who hid in the jungle and brought the news back in time, I am afraid that the army of the South Road would have suffered a big loss.

On the Qin army's side, as soon as the Zhao army salient was resolved, the army turned around and rushed towards the barrier on the west bank of Danshui, and almost at the same time, the Qin army that had a roundabout north detour was finally discovered by the Zhao army's army on the north road.

On the winding avenue, the galloping war horses stirred up the dust in the sky, almost obscuring the entire sky with the sun hanging high, and through the not clear sunlight, the scouts of the Zhao army who walked to the hills were almost stunned by the scene in front of them.

He was just ordered to sweep the Qin army scouts on the North Road, who would have thought that he would see such a situation.

Looking at the boundless marching columns, the scouts of the Zhao army couldn't even believe their eyes: shouldn't the main force of the Qin army be in the Light Wolf City, why did they run to the north road? Or is it so close to the north of Danshui?

And just as the Zhao army scouts were in a daze at the Qin army, the Qin army obviously also discovered the Zhao army standing on the hills through the layers of dust.

The Qin army did not hesitate at all, and immediately the Qin army in several places took action.

"I'm afraid there are no less than 100,000 troops in this army!" A Zhao Jun scout muttered to himself.

When the scout commander heard this, he finally reacted: the main force of the Qin army gathered here, there must be some plan, and it must return to the Chinese army as soon as possible, otherwise the army is in danger of overturning. And the Qin army rushing under his feet also seemed to confirm the judgment of the commander.

"Retreat at full speed, and tell the general quickly: A large number of cavalry troops of the Qin State were found in the north, and the number was no less than hundreds of thousands." The scout commander who first discovered the Qin army's rush roared angrily at his subordinates.

As he was talking, the Qin army on the opposite side had already come towards this small group of Zhao army scouts, although the order to encircle and attack had been received, and most of the troops had been in place, even if they were discovered by the Zhao army, it would not be a big problem, but obviously, in order to be foolproof, the Qin army still wanted to continue to delay the time when the Zhao army found himself.

Since this is the case, then this small group of Zhao Jun must stay here one by one.

Fortunately, the scout commander was obviously also a battle-hardened person, not only immediately judged the importance of the news he had discovered, but also knew the Qin army's intentions from the two divisions of the Qin army.

And he knew better that relying only on his own group would not be the opponent of the Qin army at all, and he would soon be driven into the encirclement of the Qin army.

It doesn't matter if the dozens of men and horses under his command have been explained, but the shocking news that the main cavalry of the Qin army appeared in the north cannot sink with his own troops.

Hundreds of thousands of troops may have a different fate because of this news.

It is to transmit the news back to the Chinese army and to the general at all costs.

And in the face of the battle with a huge disparity in strength, the only way he can think of is - disperse and break through!

Without the slightest hesitation, the scout commander roared again: "Disperse and break through, at all costs, be sure to bring back the news." ”

"Yes!" The scouts quickly understood the seriousness of the matter, and as they turned their horses' heads, they complied, and sprinted with the commander as soon as their legs clamped the horse's belly.

A race soon began in the north.

In front, dozens of Zhao army scouts washed down the gentle slope to the south along the hill where they were located, and quickly lifted the horse speed, while the Qin army in the rear had already risen because of the advantage of the first strike, and saw the Zhao army fleeing south, and immediately divided the army and came along the extension of the hill.

Soon, the Zhao army's scout headquarters had already rushed down the hills, avoiding the dilemma of being besieged by the Qin army, but the crisis was not resolved.

Tun Chang, who had just run down the hills, looked back slightly, only to feel that his scalp was numb, and the smoke and dust that were still on the road had already risen behind him, and several Qin troops who ran the fastest were not even a hundred steps away from him.

Don't look at the fact that there are only a few people, but once they are entangled, it is only a blink of an eye to be caught up by the follow-up Qin army.
