Chapter 569: The Flat Land Finally Shows the Traces of the Qin Army
Yes, this place is about to become the land of Qin.
Of course, the soldiers in the prime of life knew what the young man meant: this is the enemy's country, wouldn't it be better to eat up their little fish and let those hateful Qin people have nothing to eat?
Although the soldiers in their prime didn't understand any big truths, he also knew that if there was less food, there would naturally be fewer soldiers, and without these small fish, the combat power of the Qin people might be a little smaller.
This obviously cannot be miscalculated, and for a while, the prime of life did not know how to respond to the words of the young man. I had no choice but to "teach" myself, the father of the young man in front of me, on the young man in front of me again.
"Nowhere is it! Do not kill women or children. Seeing that the young man was still a little unconvinced, the prime man snatched the net and poured the fish into the water one by one.
Then he kicked the young man in the buttocks and yelled, "This is the rule! The biggest rule in the world! It's the same with fish. ”
The young man was obviously stunned by the sudden anger of the prime of life, and his big eyes turned red in an instant, but he was afraid of the majesty of the prime of life, but he didn't dare to refute at all, and he didn't dare to leave, so he could only stand in place aggrieved.
"What's the chief, don't beat the child! The doll is still young, and if you don't know how to teach it slowly! Another soldier in the river, who was walking to the shore with a big fish in both hands, said to the middle-aged man with a smile.
"It's still a little mile! It's all done! I will pay the tax next year, and if I am not sensible, how can I resist my family. The strong man replied helplessly, and then slipped the aggrieved young man out of the river with one hand.
Gently stroking some yellowed hair, the prime of life is a little distressed, the old father at home is old, and sick in bed, but the king's edict is that the family must have two people, if the old father is allowed to go on the expedition, I am afraid that he will have to explain the past if he can't get here.
There was no way, he had to let his underage brother quietly change his age and disguise himself as Ding, replacing his old father who couldn't act, and then he explained the past to the county, and he was a good captain in the army, and he had a good drink with the military judge, which could be regarded as a fool.
However, his younger brother is only eleven years old! Not to mention drawing a sword to kill someone, it takes a lot of effort to kill a pig. And what he will face is not the man fighting for water in the next village, but the Qin army! The Qin army, known as the tiger wolf!
Although he is also considered a brave warrior, otherwise he would not be able to sit in this long position with a white body, but in the face of the wolf-like Qin army, it is still difficult for him to protect himself, let alone take care of his younger brother.
I asked my younger brother to release the little fish, didn't I hope that Qin Jun could be a little compassionate and let his younger brother go in the war? But I can't say these words to my brother, or even to anyone.
The middle-aged man looked distressed, bent down slightly, and said softly to the young man: "You have to be obedient, now you are on the battlefield, if you are not careful, you will lose your life, the old lady at home is still waiting for you, understand?" ”
"I know, brother, I listen to you." Xu felt the strangeness of his brother, and the young man responded very obediently.
As they spoke, the nets and pockets of the rest of the people were already full, and if they were caught any longer, they could only be loaded with clothes, and immediately the soldiers came ashore from the water, put on the armor that was still on the shore, and prepared to return to the camp and fight tooth sacrifices!
It's just that just when the people and horses who were fishing in Hanoi were sparsely dressed in their clothes and armor, carrying a net bag full of Dengdeng, and preparing to return to the camp together, there was a sudden thunderous sound from the direction of Zhou Wangji in the distance.
The long-experienced Shi Chang immediately noticed that something was wrong, where did the thunder come from in the sunny weather?
Suddenly, Shi Chang's heart was cold. It's not a thunderstorm, then there is only another possibility-cavalry, and it is a large number of cavalry with tens of thousands of people, and only such a large-scale iron cavalry charging together will make such an earth-shattering sound like thunder.
And on the battlefield today, it is from the direction of Zhou Wangji, except for the Qin army, he doesn't think twice at all.
"Qin Army Iron Cavalry!" He shouted, then turned his head to his subordinates and ordered: "Give up everything and return to camp quickly!" ”
"No!" The soldiers obviously trusted their own chief, and without saying a word, they threw the net full of fish in the direction of the river, and regardless of whether the fish could swim back into the river, they turned around and ran with their chief.
Even the short-legged child pretended to be an adult, and ran with the adults, but in a hurry, he tripped over the wild vines growing on the shore and fell to the ground, and before he could cry out in pain, a big hand lifted him up.
It was his brother's big and generous hand.
"The grass and trees are lush nearby, put your coat on your back, just hide here, don't make a sound, don't be discovered! If I look for you tonight, you will run south and go home. If you meet a strongman in black and ask you about your clothes, he will say that he took them from a dead man, understand? Before the child could say anything, the strong man had already opened his mouth and said solemnly.
"Brother, I want to be with you!" The child obviously didn't know the urgency of the moment, and still held his brother's arm and refused to let go.
"How did you promise me? Well? Let go! Shi Chang viciously pushed the child away, stuffed a small package in his arms into the child's arms, and then turned around and ran towards the camp without looking back: "Live well, A-Niang is still waiting for you to go back." ”
Looking at the figure of his brother passing away, the child's eyes were already full of tears, and he carefully opened the small package left by his brother, which contained a few big coins, a piece of bread, and a piece of starch candy that he had been hungry for a long time.
At this moment, his nose was sore, and tears could no longer be suppressed, but the elder brother's warning to leave sounded again, and the child had to hug himself tightly with his dirty little hands, and the corners of his mouth bit his sleeves fiercely, trying not to cry out loud.
Not long after my brother left, the thunderous sound became closer and closer, as if it were in my ears! The child could even hear the bell ringing in front of the horse's chest. The child, who was so frightened, had to hide his head in the crook of his arm, and sat trembling among the dense grass and vines. 33
Fortunately, the target of the Qin army was only the coalition camp not far away, and it only swept past the Luoshui side, and did not investigate it carefully, and the child seemed to have escaped.
But the coalition battalion didn't have such luck.
The chief here settled his brother a little, and took three steps and two steps, and finally caught up with the brothers, and then the group rushed to the camp with their weapons in hand.
Although the camp is not far from the river, it is also hundreds of paces away.
The good news is that because Shi Chang discovered it in time, when Shi Chang rushed back to the camp with his people, the figure of the Qin cavalry still did not appear in the visible range.
The bad news was that the scouts in the camp climbed the high watchtower, and as far as the eye could see, a thin black line was being seen running towards the camp from far and near. Time is running out for the coalition forces!
Fortunately, the vanguard belongs to the generals, although more of them are won by the generals of the Chu State, but in the end they are still the elite, and the generals of the Chu State have pulled up their own family foundations, after all, they are here to fight for merit, not to seek death.
Even the thousands of people sent by the other two families are each of the elite.
The vanguard of the coalition army, which is still elite, the moment he got the news, the bells and drums for preparing for war were beaten, and everyone from the general to the non-commissioned officers began to prepare for the battle.
It's too late to ask for help, but the latest situation must be reported to the main force of the Chinese army immediately, and the general didn't say a word, and scattered all the probes who reported the news - quickly told Xinling Jun: 100,000 urgent, the Qin army is coming! For the sake of the alliance's face, pull the brothers!
It's too late to dig a ditch to repair, but how much can you move if you refuse to move a horse, don't care about the army's own way out, first resist all the roads, as long as you hold it, the fastest two or three hours, the slowest is at midnight today, the main force of the coalition army can arrive, and then you are afraid that there will be no way out?
The archers are in place in front of the camp gate, and the sharp arrows can take as many as they want, once the Qin army enters the shooting range, ten thousand arrows will be fired immediately, don't think about saving arrows, and the only two pairs of bed crossbows are above the main gate, as long as the Qin army dares to break the door, shoot him for me!
The shield soldiers also quickly relocated the long shield, and the long shield was set up in the gap between the gate and the surrounding area and the fence to prevent the Qin army's arrow rain from hitting their own soldiers.
There were also spearmen, whose spears were slammed into the ground and the other end rested against the long shield by the fence, with the shield defending against the onslaught of the cavalry.
The gold juice will be burned for me, and the stone-throwing cart will be pushed up for me, don't care if it's in time or not, don't care if it's useful or not, first assemble it and use it.
The sword and axe hands and long sword men were all urgently assembled, wearing armor and helmets, forming a phalanx, ready to fight hand-to-hand with the Qin army at any time.
That's right, wolf smoke! Quickly ignite the three-pillar wolf smoke!!
I have to say that daring to take the position of pioneer, this general surnamed Jing of Chu State still has something, at least compared with those wastes in the three clans of "Qu, Jing, and Zhao", this general is already the elite of the elite.
After all, in a short period of time, he had already thought of everything he could think of, and the scheduling of troops was quite orderly, and he was not confused because of the sudden attack of the Qin army.
But it's a pity that since he decided not to advance or retreat, and began to camp on the spot, but never thought about the possible attack of the Qin army, he and his vanguard army have stepped into the abyss step by step.
And this strategic mistake cannot be solved by a quick response.
In terms of terrain, for the convenience of getting water, the large battalion was not stationed on a dangerous mountain, but in an area close to the plain, which was obviously more conducive to the cavalry of the Qin army than to the infantry of the coalition army.
Although there are more than 1,000 cavalry in the coalition army, the cavalry will obviously not be the opponent of the 30,000 cavalry of the Qin State.
But can you defend the village?
In terms of troops, the coalition army is 20,000 to 30,000, and it is still in absolute weakness.
In terms of combat power, because the army of Zhao was independently commanded by General Lian Po, there were only the troops of Chu, Han, and Wei here, although they were also the elite of each country, but compared to the army of Qin, there was no need to ask which team had higher combat power.
What's more, the Qin State led troops to attack, or the star of tomorrow - Meng Fu!
Obviously, the Coalition will not give the Coalition any chance.
In fact, the cavalry of the Qin State did not even give the coalition army much time to prepare, the rejection horses in front had not been placed, the archers in the rear had not yet been fully in place, and the shields and spears had only protected part of the camp, and even the sword and axe men and swordsmen, many of whom were still in the camp tents, were being scolded by their respective officers, and they were ignorant one after another.
Obviously, in the face of the surprise attack of the cavalry of the Qin army, the coalition forces were not prepared at all. As for what gold juice and what stone thrower, the coalition forces did not have any time to prepare.
With a few "bang, bang, bang" sounds, several rejecting horses that had just been placed in front of the gate of the village were instantly knocked away by the Qin army, and even the hundreds of soldiers who had placed the rejecting horses and had not had time to return to the village also fell in a pool of blood.
"Close! Close the door! The lieutenant of the Chu military academy in charge of the Zhaimen immediately ordered in horror.
Outside the gate, there were hundreds of soldiers rushing towards the gate. It's just that the captain of the Chu military academy can't care so much, because not far from the hundreds of soldiers, the cavalry of the Qin army has already attacked with long swords.
For the safety of more people, the lieutenant of the Chu military academy could only order the door to be closed.
As the lieutenant gave the order, the wooden gate was slowly closed under the impetus of dozens of soldiers.
Seeing that the gate that represented the hope of life was getting narrower and narrower, expressions of horror, despair, and even disbelief appeared on the faces of the coalition soldiers who remained outside the village.
It's just that what they don't know is that not far behind them, Qin Jun's long sword has already glowed with bursts of cold light under the light of the setting sun.
With a "bang", the gate of Dazhai was finally closed.
The lieutenant of the Chu military academy who gave the order silently lowered his head, trying not to look at the tragic scene, so as to reduce the guilt in his heart a little.
For a moment, the wails filled the air......
Some people died, but not completely......
