Chapter 601 Drawing water on the south bank of the Qin army

Facing the galloping Zhao army's elite cavalry, Qin Jun did not have the slightest fear at all, quickly adjusted the formation, and rushed forward against the golden blade of the Zhao army.

The sassy autumn wind whispers in the ears, and the black daqi is hunting in the morning sun!

All the Qin troops were ready to die under the long knife of the Zhao army, and all the Qin troops had already thought about dragging the Zhao army on the opposite side with their own lives.

Closer, closer, closer!

The arrow behind his back is already in his hand, and he can draw his bow and shoot sharply in a few more steps!

The soldiers of the Qin army immediately began to adjust their breathing, preparing to give a hard blow to the Zhao army on the opposite side.

At this moment, the formation of the Zhao army in front suddenly changed, and it was beyond the limit distance of the arrow's shooting, and the originally sharp arrow suddenly made an almost vertical turn to the east, and ran straight towards the Qin army column that was copying from the east.

"Not good!" Meng Fu's heart suddenly felt bad.

It's too late, it's fast, just when Meng Fu's brows shrank, the elite cavalry of the Zhao army, which came and went like the wind, had already broken through the front of the Qin army on the east side.

The inconvenient Qin army was not able to make any reaction before the Zhao army broke through.

When dozens of Qin soldiers fell to the ground, a voice instantly sounded in Qin Jun's heart: Can cavalry still be used like this?

The lieutenant of the left flank of the Qin army, who had just reacted, immediately chased after him with his troops.

And under this pursuit, the formation of the Qin army was disrupted by most of it.

When the Qin army was briefly confused and confused, Lian Po on the opposite side was not idle, and after running away a little, Zhao Jun did not leave here, let alone turn around to draw water.

Outside the range of the Qin army's arrows, the cavalry of the Zhao army, led by Lian Po, once again completed a silky turn of almost 100 degrees, and then rushed diagonally towards the Qin army.

While rushing, these thousands of cavalry shot arrows with bows, and with the help of horse speed, the bows and arrows of the Zhao army were solidly shot into the array of the Qin army.

Because of the problem of direction and angle, the bows and arrows of the Zhao army were almost always shot head-on, and they could be fired quickly into the array of the Qin army with the help of horses, while the Qin army could only shoot from the side and could not shoot into the array of the Zhao army at all.

In this way, you can hit me, and I can't hit you, which is obviously the most uncomfortable.

And after two rounds of projectiles, when the Zhao army was about to reach the range of the Qin army, Lian Po led the Zhao army to adjust the direction and rushed straight to the left flank of the Qin army.

In a flash of light, the cavalry of the Zhao army had already fought with the cavalry of the pursuing Qin army.

Obviously, the Qin army in pursuit still didn't expect that the cavalry of the Zhao army would fight back, and they suddenly panicked.

Lian Po, who had a white beard, still rushed to the front line, and between the long knife in his hand, the oncoming captain of the Qin army suddenly lost his life.

Without a command, the Qin army instantly fell into a brief chaos.

Taking advantage of the chaos of the Qin army, the Zhao army had no intention of staying, and between the sword in his hand, Lian Po had already led the elite cavalry of the Zhao army to kill the pursuing Qin army again.

In just a few turns, Lian Po led a few thousand cavalry and routed the army on the left flank of the Qin army.

Of course, defeat is not the same as total annihilation. Although the Qin army was killed and retreated, it quickly stabilized its foothold under the leadership of the follow-up Qin army and their respective captains.

However, this also inevitably delayed the offensive speed of the main force of the Qin army.

And in this short period of time, Lian Po has already rushed to the Qin army on the right flank with his cavalry!

"Well done!" The commander of the Qin army on the right flank was immediately overjoyed.

Obviously, after the left flank was repeatedly attacked by the Zhao army, the Qin army on the right flank also immediately stopped the outflanking movement, reduced the speed of the horse and turned to the left.

Seeing that the Zhao army broke through the left flank again, the lieutenant on the right flank seemed to have expected it, and immediately adjusted the formation, lowered the speed of the horse again, and prepared to deal with the impact of the Zhao army.

It's a pity that the ginger is still old and spicy.

In other words, the Qin army has been formed

The chaotic Zhao army has always firmly occupied the initiative on the battlefield, seeing the Qin army on the right flank reducing the speed of their horses again and again, and the entire formation even presents a half-moon-shaped posture.

If this collides head-on, it is obvious that it will immediately be entangled by the outnumbered Qin army.

The Zhao army, which only had more than 3,000 people, would inevitably become the mouth of the Qin army once it lost its mobility.

Of course, Lian Po would not be so easily fooled, seeing that the Qin army had already set up a formation, the long knife in Lian Po's hand was slightly oblique, and at the edge of the attack range of the Qin army's arrows, the elite cavalry of the Zhao army turned again.

And this time, the direction in which Lian Po's troops fled was the direction of drawing water to cross the river.

Obviously, from the perspective of the Qin military captain, Zhao Jun is going to evacuate. Especially when he saw that there were not many Zhao troops on the south bank of the water, he strengthened the idea in his heart.

Since Zhao Jun wanted to run, he definitely couldn't let them leave so easily.

Whether it was the lieutenant on the right flank, including Meng Fu, they were all anxious when they saw that Zhao Jun was about to leave.

On the battlefield, the more anxious you are, the easier it is to make mistakes. Immediately, whether it was Meng Fu or the Qin army commander on the right flank, he immediately issued an order to his subordinate troops to pursue with all their might.

It was such an order that allowed Lian Po to find a loophole.

Yes, until this time, Lian Po still had no idea of retreating directly to Jishui.

The reason is very simple, although the main force of the army has withdrawn to the north bank of Jishui, it still needs time to assemble, and it needs time to form a blocking position on the north bank.

At this time, he marched to the north bank, and once the Qin army followed and attacked, the unprepared Zhao army was very likely to suffer a big loss in the melee.

Of course, this is not what Lian Po wants to see. At the very least, it is necessary to let the Zhao army, which has crossed the water, set up the archer position, and Lian Po will start to cross the river.

Of course, this is not something that Lian Po can procrastinate if he wants to.

However, obviously, Lian Po and Zhao Jun's luck was not bad, and Qin Jun, who was in a hurry, really made a mistake again.

The right-wing Qin army, which had just gradually formed a half-moon-shaped formation, was now about to change into a pursuit formation, and Rao was so strong that the Qin army would inevitably hesitate a little in the change of formation.

And this short hesitation is the opportunity for Lian Po and Zhao Jun.

Yes, they killed again and again!

Another corner of nearly 100 degrees, because the ship was small and good to turn around, even if Zhao Jun made a turn after the Qin army changed formations, he still completed the turn faster than the Qin army.

The Zhao army, which adjusted its direction again, immediately attacked the Qin army again.

This time, their target, of course, was the right flank of the Qin army.

Needless to say, in a panic, the right flank of the Qin army was once again broken by the Zhao army.

However, Meng Fu in the rear finally saw the situation on the battlefield clearly, and finally no longer had a headache and sent reinforcements.

Seeing that the right flank was broken by the Zhao army again, Meng Fu did not send more troops to assist the right flank. Instead, they threw their forces into the left flank, which had gradually regrouped.

His goal was clear, that is, to use the forces of the left flank to cut off the retreat of the Zhao army.

Aren't you trying to break my right wing? I don't want it! This 10,000 army, even if you kill it, you can't kill it!

But in the end, you still have to cross the river, as long as the soldiers and horses on my left flank can successfully circle the rear, your thousands of soldiers and horses will not be able to escape, even if the troops on the right flank suffer heavy losses, it is worth it.

It's a pity that Meng Wei somewhat underestimated Zhao Jun's ability, and also overestimated his own subordinates.

You must know that the Qin army on the left flank has just been defeated, and even the commander was beheaded by General Lian Po, even if it was blocked by the follow-up troops and stopped retreating, it was inevitable that there would still be chaos.

Even if Meng Fu immediately reassigned the lieutenant, it would be difficult to command the whole army in a short period of time.

Naturally, there was a hesitation in the speed of the counterattack.

You're late

Suspiciously, General Lian Po had already drawn up a plan there, and General Lian Po, who took the lead, was even more confident, and almost at the moment when he broke through the Qin army on the right flank and made it chaotic, Lian Po took the army to turn around.

This time, the Zhao army can finally retreat!

Looking at the main force that had gradually crossed the water and gained a firm foothold, Lian Po knew that his task of covering had been completed, and all that remained was the question of how he could leave safely.

"Cross the river!" After holding back the order for a long time, Lian Po could finally shout out loudly.

Everyone was not stingy with horsepower, and immediately according to the original plan, they divided into several roads and began to rush towards the water.

The Qin army behind him, who was responsible for the outflanking of the right flank, was still adjusting, and the outflanking of the left flank had only reacted, and as for the main force led by Meng Fu in the middle lane, it was even far away.

For a time, there was no force at all that could stop the Zhao army from retreating north.

Of course, Meng Fu and his 50,000 cavalry still did not give up, and soon regrouped from the temporary chaos, and by this time, the three armies were almost on the same plane, except for the slightly forward on the left.

Since it was already slow, in order to avoid being broken by the Zhao army again, Meng Fu simply merged the three armies and reorganized them into a sharp arrow formation and chased after Lian Po.

In fact, if he didn't change the formation at the beginning, he didn't want to annihilate the Zhao army in front of him, and he kept the sharp arrow formation and the Zhao army attacking, and he was hard-hitting, even if Lian Po had great ability, he would not be able to erase the gap in the number of people more than ten times.

It's a pity that it's a thought.

However, it's no wonder that the man who sees the banner of the word "cheap" on the pole will also have a bad thought!

Defeating Lian Po, or even capturing Lian Po alive, what a great merit this is, and how much prestige it will have.

Seeing that such an opportunity to make a name for himself is in front of him, let alone a young man like Meng Fu, even a veteran like Wang Yi may not be able to endure it!

In the final analysis, it is still slightly inferior.

Obviously, it has a force advantage of more than ten times, but it can't be brought into play.

On the local battlefield, it is always the Zhao army that occupies the advantage of troops, and it is always the Zhao army that can beat itself, but he has no choice but to do the Zhao army. Several disguises made the left and right wings of the Qin army even more defenseless.

Of course, then again, if Wang Yu hadn't transferred the 20,000 cavalry troops, Meng Wei would have been able to thicken the strength of the left and right wings, with 20,000 troops on each side and 30,000 in the middle.

It's a pity that everything is so rushed.

Wang Ji transferred 20,000 cavalry, pinched the fleeing Wei army, and annihilated the main force of the Wei army on the south bank of Jishui.

But because of the transfer of 20,000 cavalry, the troops in Meng Fu's hands were not so sufficient, which also gave Lian Po room to play.

Whether it's a gain or a loss, who can say for sure?

Besides, if the Qin army really has 70,000 people, maybe Lian Po's tactics will change again!

But either way, the facts have been cast, and no amount of thought is meaningless.

The pursuit continued, but as the situation on the north bank of the water gradually unfolded in front of the Qin army, everyone knew that they had no chance.
