"Wonderful!" Zhao Slip clapped his hands: "The Qi army is rashly advancing, and it will be easy to win by setting an ambush!" ”

Then, Zhao Hua's eyes lit up, and he seemed to think of something again......

Hearing Xiong Wuliang's order, the Shaohu sergeant, who was holding back his anger, responded positively.

Because Xiong Wuliang's subordinates were well-trained, although they suffered two major defeats in a row, coupled with a rout and escape all the way, they were not defeated like most Chu troops.

So far, the 1,500 Shaohu Army has maintained a complete marching formation.

The swords, shields, spears, halberds, and crossbows carried by the army, including armor and other combat equipment, were also basically not lost.

Because the Shaohu Army was located in a later position, it contained a lot of routs along the way - now the total strength of Xiong Wuliang's command has not decreased, but has increased, and there are more than 3,000 people.

Therefore, Xiong Wuliang dared to fight back against the 3,000 Qi army that was chasing behind his back at this time, and he was completely sure.

The Shaohu soldiers were well-trained to hide in the woods on both sides of the road, and the rest of the Chu soldiers also followed suit, hiding on both sides of the road.

The vanguard of the Qi State, which was pursued by three thousand, was defenseless and plunged headlong into the encirclement of the Chu army......

I don't blame them for being careless - the Chu army fled all over the mountains, and for a whole day and night, they did not encounter any resistance.

It's time to pay for their arrogance!

Xiong Wuliang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he waved his big hand: "Release the arrow!" ”

Shaohu suddenly got up: "The lord has an order - release the arrow!" ”

Xiong Wuliang's subordinate, the most ruthless killing move is not the fine iron armor and melee combat on the body, but the continuous rain of arrows.

The crossbows in the hands of the 1,500 Shaohu Army sergeants were brushed and fired, and more than 10,000 crossbow arrows poured out in an instant......

Like a black cloud, it shrouded the Qi army in the middle of the road......

The flanks of the marching Qi army were covered by a rain of arrows, and most of the marching Qi soldiers did not have their shields in their hands.

In a flash, the 3,000 Qi army had already suffered heavy casualties.

After a volley, Shaohu saw that the Qi soldiers were already in chaos, so he drew his sword and shouted: "Second and third sons, kill with me!" ”

The soldiers of Chu who had been in the nest for a long time were like tigers descending from the mountains, slaughtering from the dense forest...... The Qi soldiers had no formation at all, so they could only resist by instinct.

The 3,000 Chu troops slaughtered head-to-head, especially the 1,500 Shaohu soldiers, who still maintained the wedge-shaped arrow of the charge in the chaos, fully demonstrating the results of the combination of weekday training and Langya rotation training.

In just a moment of incense, the battlefield has fallen silent.

None of the 3,000 pursuing Qi troops slipped through the net, and all of them fell in this forest road, which was actually not rugged.

"Lord, great victory, great victory!" Shaohu's face was full of excitement.

"Killed 3,000 enemies, captured 30 chariots, and countless ...... of flags, snare drums, swords and halberds"

Xiong Wuliang nodded, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

More than 3,000 Chu soldiers suffered only a few hundred casualties in this battle, and they created such brilliant results with mental calculation or unintentionality.

The morale of the three armies was greatly boosted, and the haze brought about by successive defeats and retreats was swept away.

Xiong Wuliang was about to give the order to take the loot and continue to retreat south, but he was summoned to slip and pull his sleeve-

Zhao Slip: "Lord, there is a fighter plane in front of you!" ”

"The commander of the Qi army drove straight in, but due to the logistical supply, the main force must have returned to the vicinity of Xiapi to wait for the baggage - the [Jin Bei] city in front of it must have no troops to garrison."

"Instead of continuing to retreat south and being chased and beaten by the Qi army, you might as well turn around and recover the county town south of Xiapi!"

Xiong Wuliang thought about it for a while, and also felt that what Zhao Hua said was very reasonable.

If they continue to flee, the Chu army will always be chased and bitten by the Qi army.

If [Jin Bei] south of Xiapi can be recaptured, it can also effectively curb the speed of the Qi army's pursuit, and facilitate the regrouping of the Chu army that has scattered and fled.

The most important thing - if you continue to flee south, then the war will soon extend to Xiong Wuliang's fiefdom.

"Go north and recover Jin Bei!" Xiong Wuliang hesitated for a moment and then ordered.

The Shaohu soldiers naturally responded positively to the lord's order, and the more than 1,000 Chu soldiers who were temporarily contained also obeyed this Quyang monarch who had just created the results of the battle.

"Call back!"

"Regain Jin Bei!"

……

"Untie all the horses that can still be used, and push the chariot into the ditch!" Peony Tiger carried a bloody sword and gave orders—

"Recover as many bolts as possible!"

The Chu soldiers happily cleaned up the battlefield, and according to what Shaohu said, they tried their best to pick up the arrows that were fired.

Needless to say, the Shaohu army was well-armed, and the rest of the Chu soldiers quickly armed themselves with the weapons of the Qi army - the Qi country was rich, and the weapons were much better than those of the Chu state.

On the fourth day of August, the 3,000 Chu troops under Xiong Wuliang did not retreat but advanced, and went straight to [Jin Bei]!

……

Jin Beicheng.

Sure enough, it was as if Zhao Slip expected - the main force of the Qi army was waiting for supplies in Xiapi, and the number of Qi troops guarding Jin Bei was only five hundred.

Moreover, these Qi soldiers did not expect that the Chu people, who had fled for their lives, would dare to counterattack, and the garrison was very lax.

The general of the Qi army guarding [Jin Bei] was a young general named 'Jiang Lu'.

This person is the younger brother of Jiang Yu, the pioneer general of the Qi State.

"Chu people, they are all a bunch of waste!" Jiang Lu lay on the body of a beautiful woman and pinched the woman's jaw, "But the women of Chu are still very useful." ”

The woman bowed her head angrily.

Jiang Lu laughed cruelly: "Madam, you have to behave better, otherwise Ben will send you to reunite with your Chu husband with a sword......"

After the Qi army invaded the territory of Chu, under the leadership of Jiang Yu, they went all the way to collect and expropriate, burn, kill and loot, and there was no restraint at all.

Jiang Lu, like Jiang Yu, believed that burning and killing was the best way to boost the morale of the soldiers.

After occupying [Jin Bei], Jiang Lu did not have the slightest intention of restraining his soldiers, but indulged the sergeants to rape and plunder.

Although Jiang Yu did not restrain his subordinates, Jiang Yu himself did not participate in the burning and looting - while Jiang Lu took the lead in raping, burning, killing and killing for fun.

The so-called upward and downward effect - with such a leader, Jin Bei's 500 Qi Army is of course even more crazy and unscrupulous.

Looking at the entire Jin Beicheng, the Qi army was already heavily in blood debts......

……

Xiong Wuliang's 3,000 Chu troops marched all the way, and after the ambush battle, it only took half a day to come to the city of northern Jin.

Perhaps the Qi army was too paralyzed and careless, and no scouts were sent outside the city.

Even summoning slips feels incredible—

It's a war! And also on the territory of the state of Chu!

Qi people, too arrogant!

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and the three thousand Chu troops came to the city of Jin Bei with great fanfare, but they were not discovered by the Qi army!

Xiong Wuliang put his hand on the pergola and looked at it - the purple flag of Qi on the city wall fluttered lazily, and there was not even half a figure in the city.

At the city gate, there were only three or five Qi soldiers laughing and playing.

The gates of Jin Bei were wide open, and when they looked through the gates, there were no pedestrians on the streets—the ground seemed to glow a dull red, which stretched along the road to the gates......

Smelling the faint smell of blood in the air, Xiong Wuliang's face twitched, and an ominous premonition welled up in his heart-

……
