"The Chu army has broken down, as long as our army can hold on here for a moment, they will definitely collapse on their own. Then our army will be able to launch a counterattack and defeat them in one fell swoop!"

Facing the stunned looks of the two or five hundred lords under his command, Li You was very confident.

He has a reason to be confident.

First of all, the Chu army on the opposite side is a defeated army, don't look at their large numbers, but their own military spirit is unstable.

The Qin army hung behind them, and before they could make a move, they scared this Chu army into a tendency to collapse, and deserters appeared all the way.

Just following behind has such a record, so if it really starts, these Chu people will not have to scatter and flee, how can they beat him Li You's five thousand sharp soldiers.

In addition to the unbearable Chu army, Li You was also full of confidence in the 5,000 people under his command.

First of all, in the past six months, he has to eat and dress the 5,000 people under his command, pay out of his own pocket, add clothes and shoes to them, and often express condolences, and the closeness is beyond words.

And before, he used the incident of "Li Ran Run" to kill many long-tongued slanderers, so that his soldiers also saw his majesty.

With such a combination of grace and power, who is not convinced?

Under such circumstances, the 5,000 soldiers under his command are not allowed to serve themselves and fight to the death!

"It seems to be Taiyi...... It was Haotian who wanted me to make Li You famous here. He Zhao Tuo used to be on the bank of Surabaya to defeat the left Sima Zhaoping of the Chu State, and I, Li You, will also fight against the water on the bank of the Rushui River today, and destroy him Sima Ye Sheng, the right of the Chu State!"

"Zhao Tuo didn't catch Zuo Sima at the beginning, so if I, Li You, can capture Zuo Sima in this battle, wouldn't I have to beat him Zhao Tuo again?"

Thinking of this, Li You felt his heart beating faster, and he didn't even listen to the advice of his general Gongao.

"I'm sure I'll be able to defeat the enemy and win this battle, so don't talk about it later. Gongao, I will allocate another 500 soldiers and horses to you, and then bring your original 500 elites, so that it is a thousand."

"You take these thousand people to leave from the east side, go around to the back of the Chu army, and when our army and the Chu people are in the middle of a fierce battle, you suddenly lead the army to raid the Chu people, so that this battle will be won."

Hearing Li You's words, several other two or five hundred lords also reacted.

"Li Junhou actually wants to fight against Rushui and follow the example of the former Zhao general Surabaya to win a great victory."

"I see, it seems that our army will win this battle!"

Although Li You was unhappy that his subordinates compared him with Zhao Tuo, but now that he heard that Zhao Tuo was in the name of the battle, they were full of confidence, and he had no choice but to suppress his dissatisfaction.

Li You secretly said in his heart: "Zhao Tuo's last battle? Oh, I'm going to be better than him."

Gong Ao still felt inappropriate in his heart, and felt that the name of the last battle was so big, would the Chu army be defenseless?

But seeing that Jun Hou and all his colleagues were full of confidence, he didn't have much to say, so he could only take the order to go down, order a thousand men and horses to go east, and find a way to go around to the rear of the Chu army.

……

The Chu army came faster than expected, and just when Li You led the army to retreat to a riverside clearing, and just let the generals lay more than a dozen chariots sideways as an obstacle, the Chu army had already arrived.

"What are these Qin people doing, not even running?"

On the chariot, the right Sima Yesheng looked at the Qin army's military formation on the bank of Rushui in the distance, and his brows were furrowed.

In the military discussion before launching the attack, they presupposed, in the face of the sudden return of the Chu army, it was very likely that the Qin army would choose to retreat to drag down the Chu army, and they even made several sets of response plans for this.

How do you know that when the Chu army returned to the division, this Qin army actually did not run, but set up a formation near the water, this move exceeded the expectations of the right Sima, and made him feel a little caught off guard.

At this time, more than 9,000 soldiers of the Chu army had already set up military formations under the command of Chu generals at all levels.

The formation of the Chu army was in a ring shape, encircling the Qin army on the riverside.

"It seems that this Qin general wants to take the back of the water as a battle, like the battle of Surabaya of Zhao Tuo in the past."

Zheng Zisu glanced at it and opened his mouth with a solemn expression.

Right Sima took a closer look, and the other party was really leaning against Rushui and blocking the chariot in front

A posture of backing the water.

"If we are on our backs, then this Qin army will inevitably ambush the strange soldiers behind us. I'll look at their numbers...... The odd soldiers should be about 1,000 people, and when our army engages the Qin army here, they will kill from the rear and raid our army in order to win."

Right Sima Ye Sheng whispered, and then he raised his hand and pointed to the thousands of black-armored Qin soldiers on the bank of Rushui in the distance, and laughed: "I don't know who the Qin general is on the other side? You're not an idiot!"

"In the past, Zhao Tuo fought against the water, and there was no way back to retreat, which inspired the soldiers to fight to the death. The second is to rely on the ambush of the strange soldiers, who caught Zhaoping off guard, and was caught by his charge, which will lead to the defeat of our Chu army. Now that I know that there is a strange soldier buried behind him, how can I do this?"

"I can win Zhaoping in a battle against the water, but it is useless to me Ye Sheng!"

Right Sima finished laughing, and immediately ordered, "The Art of War is the remnant of the Yunwei Division. Send an order to go down and vacate the north side, and give those Qin troops a way to escape, lest they have no way to retreat and fight to the death with our army."

"Zisu, you send another 2,000 men to form a battle formation in the rear of our army, and send cavalry around to reconnoiter the traces of the Qin army's strange soldiers."

"As for the thousands of Qin troops in front of you, let's shoot them with our army's bows and crossbows first, and wait until the arrows are missed, and then attack!"

"Yui!"

Zheng Zisu agreed and received the order to go down to arrange.

Soon, the formation of the Chu army began to be mobilized, and a large number of Chu army crossbowmen came out of the formation, set up strong bows and crossbows, and shot at the Qin army.

"Shoot me back!"

In the Qin army's formation, Li You also ordered the Qin army's archers to counterattack.

Although their number was smaller than that of the Chu army, they had more than a dozen chariots as a barrier, and the two sides would not fall behind when they fired at each other.

It's just that Li You's eyes couldn't help but look north.

The soldiers originally arranged in the north of the Chu army all moved to the center, emptying all the sections north of the Qin army.

In this way, if the Qin army loses the battle, the soldiers can run to the north without fighting to the death.

The battle of Shangcai also relied on hard barriers to resist the Chu army's deathly counterattack, and did not allow them to get much exercise.

Such an army that lacked war experience was suddenly a little unable to support it as soon as it fought with the Chu army, which had more troops than itself, on the bank of Rushui.

After an hour, the Qin army suffered heavy casualties, and even the car array blocking the front was broken through several gaps by the Chu army.

The faces of the remaining more than 3,000 Nanjun soldiers already had a look of fear on their faces.

"Hold on! Our army still has surprise soldiers, just wait for our army's surprise soldiers to attack, and the Chu army will definitely be defeated!"

"Second and third sons, hold on to me, and win this battle! I will not be sorry to wait!"

"If anyone dares to escape, behead the public, and bring disaster to the family!"

Li You shouted, his face was pale, and his forehead was covered with sweat.

The situation was even more critical than he expected, and now if he wanted to win, he could only rely on Gongao's thousand strange soldiers.

Under Li You's shout, the remaining 3,000 or so Qin soldiers were a little more stable.

On the one hand, military law is strict, and once you escape from the battlefield, you will be severely punished.

On the other hand, it was Li Junhou who said that they still have strange soldiers, and as long as the strange soldiers attack, everything will be fine.

"Gongao, where is my strange soldier!"

Just when Li You and all the Qin soldiers were waiting for the prime minister, eager to attack with surprise troops and break the Chu army.

A thousand strange soldiers led by Gong Ao came, and they appeared from the rear of the Chu army in a detour and charged towards the position of Sima Daxu, the right of the Chu State.

But soon, with the report of the Chu army's sentry cavalry, the two thousand Chu troops who had been prepared immediately greeted them.

Gong Ao's subordinates are all elites, but one thousand against two thousand, under such a quantitative gap, plus the Chu army is also prepared, they can't break through the interception of the Chu army at all, let alone rush to capture the flag, and even have the risk of being defeated by the Chu army.

"That's all there is to it?"

Right Sima Ye Sheng couldn't help but sneer when he saw that the Qin army's strange soldiers were blocked.

"Come, announce to the Qin army in Rushui that their strange army has been broken by us, and if you want to live, then flee to the north. Our army is benevolent and righteous, and those who flee will not be chased!"

The corners of the right Sima's mouth turned up slightly, and he gave an order.

He was not prepared to annihilate the Qin army here, because it was likely that there was still the main force of the Qin army on the way to the north. If it is forcibly annihilated, not only will the Chu army suffer heavy casualties, but it will also be delayed for a lot of time under the desperate struggle of the Qin army.

He only needs to break this Qin army and make it impossible for the Qin army to entangle.

When the selected soldiers of the Chu army spoke Qin language, shouting the news that the Qin army's strange soldiers were broken by the Chu army.

The more than 3,000 Qin soldiers on the banks of Rushui completely collapsed.

They don't have the heart to die at all, and they have survived until now all by the constraints of military law, plus they hope to break the enemy with strange soldiers.

Now that the strange soldiers have been defeated, it will be the end of death in vain if they continue to fight.

Not to mention their military candidates, they have the title of "Li Ranran", and they once left their soldiers and fled for their lives alone.

Therefore, many Qin soldiers quietly glanced at their own soldiers, for fear that he would abandon him and escape alone.

Under such circumstances, someone finally couldn't hold it anymore and turned around and ran towards the north without the Chu army.

A thousand miles of embankment, destroyed in an anthill.

Seeing that one person took the lead in escaping, how could the remaining Qin army go to fight with the Chu people, and one by one spread their legs and ran north.

"My army, my last battle......

Li You looked at this scene in a daze, his face was like ashes, and his eyes had lost their brilliance.

This is obviously his shame before the snow, and how did he become like this?

He Li You didn't even think about running away this time!

I'm not Li Ranran!

"Wait, our army is gone. We escort the army to leave quickly, and do not fall into the hands of the Chu people."

A black-faced short-range soldier looked anxious, and without waiting for Li You to nod, he escorted Li Junhou with short-handed soldiers to the north.

In the distance, Right Sima looked at this scene from the chariot and smiled at the left and right: "I have heard that in ancient times, there were more ugly women, and when they saw Xi Shi's sick heart, this girl learned from Xi Shi's appearance, and held her heart and was in it. When the rich people in it saw it, they closed their doors and did not come out; When the poor man saw it, he took his wife and walked away."

"Looking at it now, the Qin general on the other side is also the ugly girl of that Yue."

"This person wants to follow Zhao Tuo's backwater, but he doesn't know that the soldiers are flexible, but he is laughing at the world!"

At this time, seeing that the Qin army was fleeing, and the soldiers of the Chu army did not pursue, some Chu generals passed on the words, and thousands of soldiers shouted and mocked: "The Qin generals are like a Yue woman, and they will bring humiliation on themselves!"

At this time, Li You had not run far when he could hear the laughter coming from behind.

Although the Chu people shouted in the Chu language, Li Youben was a Shangcai Chu person, so he naturally understood the meaning of the words. And he also knew the allusion of the Yue girl's imitation, and now seeing that the Chu people actually compared themselves to the ugly girl of Yue who imitated Xi Shi, Li You, who was suddenly angry, blushed.

"Damn, why is Zhao Tuo Xi Shi and I am an ugly girl!"

Li You was so angry that he shouted, but he rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot.

About ten miles north of the Rushui battlefield.

There was a well-groomed Qin army heading south.

"Li Youbu was besieged by the Chu army and set up a formation on the bank of Rushui to treat each other?"

Ren Huan received the scout's report, and his face was full of surprise.

In the face of the Chu army's return to the division's attack, shouldn't Li You's correct approach be to lead his troops back to drag down the Chu people?

Why did he fight with the Chu army on the spot.

"Could it be that Li You wants to drag the Chu people and wait for our troops to come forward, break through the Chu army together, and capture the right Sima of the Chu State?"

"Li Junhou has such a heart for meritorious work, what a good person!"

Ren was overjoyed, passed the order, and ordered the soldiers to speed up the march to meet Li Youbu.

"We have made great achievements in the present day!"
