Chapter 225: The Chu army retreats

Xiang Yan commanded under the city.

Seeing that the Chu army was attacking the city tower one after another, and the Qin army guards in the city were more and more defeated, as if they couldn't hold it, he said: "As soon as tomorrow, Pingyu can be taken, and Meng Tian is probably desperate." ”

Xiong Qi asked, "How are the reinforcements of the Qin State?" ”

Xiang Rong next to him said: "According to the news, Meng Yi of Yingchuan has finished recruiting the county soldiers and is ready to rush to Pingyu, it will take two or three days to get from Yingchuan to Pingyu, as for Ning Teng of Nanjun, there has been no movement yet, and the scouts have not been able to find out the news." ”

Xiong Qi worried: "Nanjun is in a state of combat readiness, if you get help, you can be the first to send troops, and there will be no movement." ”

After such a reminder, Xiang Yan finally felt that something was not right.

After hesitating for a while, he decided that he could not fight anymore and ordered: "The whole army retreats!" ”

Although Pingyu is important, the situation is not clear now, so it is better to ensure the safety of his army first, retreat ten miles in the direction of Chen Cheng first, and then wait and see what the situation is.

The order to withdraw the troops soon sounded among the Chu army.

Those soldiers who were about to attack the city were stunned for a while, and after determining that it was really an order to retreat, they could only give up attacking the city that was about to be taken, and had to retreat.

"General, retreat!"

The Lieutenant said.

Meng Tian was not in a hurry: "Wait and see, we haven't seen the general's order yet, don't rush out of the city." ”

Not long after the Chu army retreated, Xiang Liang suddenly walked up from the rear army: "Father, it's not good!" The rear army was attacked, and the barracks were burned. ”

Hearing this, Xiang Yan looked back suddenly, and sure enough, he could see the firelight, and shouted, "Go back quickly!" ”

The Chu army retreated faster and faster, and it was clear that there were signs of confusion.

On the castle tower.

"General, it's on fire!"

The lieutenant pointed into the distance and said excitedly.

Arson, which is the order agreed between Bai Zhong and Meng Tian, said decisively: "Open the city gate, go to battle, kill!" ”

Qin Jun had been suppressed for several days, and he had already held his breath.

Finally able to go out of the city to kill the enemy and kill the Chu army to take revenge, they couldn't bear it anymore, they all rushed out of the city gate, and under the leadership of Meng Tian, chased the retreating Chu army and killed it.

——

The rear army of the Chu army.

The reinforcements of Nanjun were taken away by Bai Zhong's people in advance, and of course the scouts of the Chu army failed to find out.

Early in the morning, seeing that Xiang Yan was attacking the city again, Bai Zhong directly led his troops and killed them in the rear army of the Chu army, the first thing to do was not to do anything else, but to set fire to create chaos, and as soon as the fire burned, it spread from various tents.

The grain, grass, and materials inside were quickly burned to the ground.

Bai Zhong opened the rage and frenzied battle, led Ying Shu, Wang Li and Li Xin, a total of more than 50,000 people, in the rear army of the Chu army, they opened a killing ring, only to kill for a while, Xiang Yan and they gathered the main force to counterattack.

"Retreat first!"

Bai Zhong shouted.

After the order was handed down, this part of the Qin army did not fall in love with the battle, and retreated, and the counterattacking Yan army suddenly fell into the air.

Xiang Yan still wanted to chase and kill, but Meng Tian came out of the Pingyu City Tower and also entered the Chu army, Bai Zhong saw that Meng Tian had already left the city, and also commanded the soldiers and horses to kill again.

Both of them formed a flanking attack.

Although the Qin army was not as numerous as the Chu army, the Chu army was intercepted and killed during the retreat, and its strength was greatly reduced.

Xiang Yan understood that he had fallen into a trick again, so he had no choice but to retreat, and did not dare to fight with the Qin army again.

With an army of 200,000, it is not very difficult to rush out in the encirclement of more than 100,000 Qin troops.

The Chu army quickly distanced itself from the Qin army and fled to the east, but fortunately, the reaction came in time and there was no excessive battle damage.

"Father, it's Bai Zhong here."

Xiang Liang gasped.

It was indeed Bai Zhong who came, and they could all see it when they were fighting just now.

They fell for Bai Zhong's trick again!

Xiang Rong said: "Bai Zhong and Li Xin appeared at the same time, and General Zhaoyue should have been killed by him." ”

Xiang Yan said with a gloomy face: "Go back to Chencheng and talk about it, it's a pity for Pingyu and Shangcai." ”

Chu Jun didn't entangle anymore, and he also understood that if he was entangled with Bai Zhong, he would suffer the loss.

They retreated directly and soon walked away, leaving only thousands of corpses behind.

Bai Zhong didn't chase after him, even if he caught up, he could kill most of the Chu army, and the battle damage would not be less, so he would return to Pingyu City first and meet with Meng Tian.

"General, I'm sorry!"

As soon as he arrived in the city, Meng Tian knelt down.

As a general's general, he actually fought such a defeat, which is to lose the face of the general.

Li Xin knelt down again, all the plans came from his hands, and the responsibility was greater, and he was ashamed in his heart.

"Get up first, go and beat Shangcai tomorrow, and then you will go back to Xianyang and ask for guilt in front of the king, not in front of me."

Bai Zhong said.

The thought of going back to see the king made them feel uncertain.

But if you lose the battle, you can use the title to offset the fault, except for cutting the knight, there should be no chance to follow Bai Zhong under Bai Zhong in the future, especially Li Xin, and he may also be assigned to the frontier as a border general.

But it's not bad to be able to save his life.

Next, Meng Tian wrote another letter to tell Yingchuan that the crisis had been lifted and there was no need to come to support.

The next morning.

Bai Zhong left 10,000 men to defend Pingyu and went north to attack Shangcai.

Shang Cai's Chu army knew that it was invincible, and directly opened the city and surrendered.

They were all Xiong Qi's soldiers before, so they would change their banners against Qin so decisively, Bai Zhong did not pity them, nor did he accept surrender, and killed all the more than 5,000 people who defended the city.

The people in the city were also violently suppressed by the Qin army, and no one dared to start a rebellion again.

The first battle to destroy Chu came to an end.

Bai Zhong did not leave immediately, and continued to lead the troops to guard here, and then waited for the arrival of the king of Yingzheng to decide where they went.

"Open the Properties Panel!"

It was quiet, and Bai Zhong thought silently in his heart.

Host: Bai Zhong

Grade: 6

Achievements: Medium Shift, General, River of Blood

Merit points: 6570

Exercises, skills: longevity, Mozi swordsmanship, eight methods in the well

Special Abilities: Berserk (Advanced, 500%), Berserk (Advanced, 426%), Kazuki (Intermediate, 55%), Enslavement (Advanced, 661%)

At the end of this battle, the merit points only rose by more than a thousand points.

The martial arts cheats in the system mall cost 100,000 at will.

"When will I be able to save 100,000?"

Bai Zhong felt that there would be more battles in the future, and as the commander, he would personally go into battle to kill the enemy, and there were not many people who relied on combat merits alone.

After simply reading it, he turned off all the panels.

He was stationed in Shangcai for several days, slowly maintaining good order.

Then, the edict of Yingzheng came.

The person who came to send Wang Zhao was still Zhao Gao, and he said that Meng Tian and Li Xin would return to Xianyang, and Bai Zhong would continue to guard Wuguan, and if necessary, he would call again.

It's over, Zhao Gao reminded: "The king is very angry now, after the two generals go back, they should pay attention." ”

These are all things they expected.

Li Xin smiled bitterly: "Thank you Zhao Fuling." ”

Then, they followed Zhao Gao back.
