Compared with Wang Ben's advance and retreat, Longqi is desperate to survive, either lose the mountain pass, all of them die without a place to be buried, or break out of the siege, but the latter is even more difficult because of the restrictions of the terrain, although Longqi only has one way to choose.

Long Qi chose to stick to the exit, leaving the hope of life for the soldiers, so that they would not die of heart, they had more than 100,000 troops of food and grass in their hands, enough to support them for several months.

"I don't know how General Meng's battle is going?" Wang Ben said in a deep voice.

Now if you want to win, you can only look at the situation on Mengwu's side, as long as Mengwu guards the exit, successfully ambushes the Chu army, and allows the army to occupy two mountains, it is enough to take the Chu army. Originally, Wang Ben sent a large army to press on and take the mountain pass several times, the Longteng army made good use of fire to attack, Longqi used fire oil to ignite the grain cart, relying on the terrain to prevent them from continuing the attack, and then used the numerical advantage of the Chu army to recapture the exit.

Wang Ben only had 50,000 men under him, and Xiang Yan left nearly 100,000 people to Fan Zeng, Long Qi could use his life to fill and seize the mountain pass, because that was the only way to live, so the Chu army was not afraid of death, and on the Qin army's side, Wang Ben's purpose was to block the exit and trap Long Qi to death here, so he gave up the high mountain that occupied the mountain pass and turned to encircle the mountain pass with all his might. If it weren't for the rain of strong bows and arrows, the Dragon Legion might not be able to really break out.

"Water and fire are ruthless, there is not enough water on the first line of heaven to suppress the fire attack of the Dragon Teng Legion." Wang Ben said, thinking of this, Wang Ben felt powerless, and after going back, Wang Ben decided to study the water attack well to avenge the fire attack of the Dragon Teng Legion.

"There is no news from General Meng's side yet." Said the adjutant general.

"Now I can only wait, the road up the mountain on this side of the entrance is being targeted, and I can only wait for General Meng." Wang Ben said helplessly.

At this time, Long Qi had already seen the guards disguised as Xiang Yan, and already knew Fan Zeng's plan, looking at the Qin army outside the mountain, he was also entangled, if he forcibly broke through now, the Longteng army might not have much left.

"General Long, don't hesitate any longer, if the Qin army continues to move forward along the top of the mountain, we are now trapped and have only a dead end, and breaking through now is the right way." Fan Zeng's voice suddenly sounded.

"Mr. Fan, how is the general?" Ryuki asked.

"If you don't get medical treatment, I'm afraid the general will die here." Fan Zeng shook his head and said.

"What about the medics?" Ryuki asked.

"I've seen a military doctor, and the arrow is only a fraction of a minute away from the heart, and they don't dare to pull it out rashly." Fan Zeng looked at Long Qi and said: "General Long, don't hesitate any longer, the Longteng army has suffered heavy losses, as long as someone can rush out, they can keep the fire and re-establish, if they wait until the Qin army in the rear occupies the high ground, our hundreds of thousands of troops will be completely cut off." ”

Looking at Fan Zeng, Long Qi also knew in his heart that they would be mortal if he waited any longer, Long Qi took out a tiger talisman from his arms, which was the tiger talisman of the Longteng Legion, and at the same time asked his subordinates to take the military flag of the Longteng Legion.

"Mr. Fan, the future of the Dragon Teng Legion is up to you, and this brother and I must appear when we break through so that we can boost morale." Long Qi said.

"I see, General Longqi is going well." Fan Zeng saluted and said.

Wang Ben was still waiting for Meng Wu's support, and his men reported that the Chu army had opened the bunker debris at the mountain pass.

"The Chu army is going to fight to the death, the whole army is on alert, where are the defenders of Yufu?" Wang Ben asked, after a long time of attack, Wang Ben asked people to go to Yufu to mobilize the defenders.

"Yufu's defenders are still ten miles away." Said the adjutant general.

"Let the whole army be on alert and respond to the charge of the Chu army at any time, and hope that General Meng's support can be delivered as soon as possible." Wang Ben said.

The terrain is also a double-edged sword, they relied on the steep terrain of the first line of heaven to ambush the Chu army, and the relative topography of the first line of heaven also gave the Chu army time to breathe, no wonder anyone, but they were not prepared before, they didn't expect Fan Zeng to be so cautious, leaving people to guard at the entrance, although the number is only more than a thousand people, but they can also rely on the terrain to temporarily block them, and they can't launch a large-scale attack.

At this time, Meng Wu was leading his soldiers along the mountain road to support Wang Ben, and the interior of the valley had been blocked by rocks, and their remaining soldiers were cleaning up to facilitate the army's attack from the rear.

"The encirclement of the Qin army is about to form, if we can't break through, we only have a dead end, there is still a chance to break through the encirclement, if you are willing to break through with me and the general, follow me and charge towards the Qin army." Long Qi shouted as he stood in front of the remaining Chu army.

Xiang Yan, who was played by the guards, also stood up, and after seeing Xiang Yan, the Chu soldiers, who were originally a little hesitant, suddenly became resolute, they were willing to believe in Xiang Yan, and believed that Xiang Yan could lead them to break through.

"Breakout!!" The soldiers of the Chu army shouted.

The sound of breaking through echoed in the canyon, resounding in the sky, Wang Ben outside the valley and Meng Wu above naturally heard it, and the footsteps under Meng Wu's feet became faster again, and Wang Ben's side pressed all the soldiers up, preparing to fight to the death with the Chu army.

For a while, the two sides were tense, and with a shout from Long Qi, they took the lead and rushed towards the outside of the mountain, behind them were countless soldiers of the Chu State.

"Shoot the arrow!!" Wang Ben shouted.

A collision between the rain of arrows and flesh began, the Chu army in front consumed the arrow rain of the Qin army with their lives, relying on the momentum of not being afraid of death, the Chu army charged towards the Qin army one after another, even if the Qin army relied on the strength of the arrow rain, it could no longer force the Chu army into the valley, looking at the Chu army that was getting closer and closer, Wang Ben could only order to give up the bow and crossbow, draw out the long sword and the Chu army for close combat.

For a while, the entrance of the entire valley became a huge meat grinder, because of the restrictions of the terrain, both sides could not carry out a large-scale battle, only the soldiers in front of the battle died, and the people in the rear immediately topped up, at this time death was already the norm, and everyone was already red-eyed.

At this time, the commander's order has expired, and everyone has only one goal to move forward and kill all the people in front, and the people on both sides dare not retreat, and once they retreat, they will face death.

Because of the gap in numbers, when the Qin army was about to highlight its disadvantages, a large amount of arrow rain fell from the high mountains, and the support of Mengwu arrived, and at the same time, the defenders of Yufu also came to the battlefield, with support, the morale of the Qin army was great, and the morale of the Qin army overwhelmed the Chu army in despair, and the battlefield began to fall in the direction of the Qin army.

Long Qi was still constantly supporting, mobilizing all the soldiers who could be mobilized, at this moment, the sound of the Qin army's rushing and killing came from behind the Chu army, and the three Qin troops began to continuously compress the Chu army, and the lives of the Chu soldiers were constantly being harvested.

Long Qi looked at the chaotic battlefield, and could only pray in his heart that Fan Zeng and Xiang Yan could break through safely, and then Long Qi drew his long sword and rushed towards the Qin army.

The sound of rushing and killing lasted for a long time, and it was not until the sun completely set that the sound of rushing and killing in the canyon stopped, a large number of torches were lit, and Wang Ben and Meng Wu, who were covered in blood, met, and both of them showed tired looks.

In this war, the Qin army suffered almost 20,000 casualties in exchange for the annihilation of the Chu army's hundreds of thousands of troops, which should be a great honor, and exchanged 20,000 people for more than 100,000 elites of the Chu army, such a record is enough to make Wang Ben and Meng Wu both marquis in one fell swoop, but their faces are not very good.

They occupied the right time and place, and also used the sacrifice of 20,000 people in exchange for more than 100,000 troops of the Chu army, this casualty exceeded the psychological estimate of the two, but the matter is a foregone conclusion, and the two have nothing to say, these 20,000 people are just their rough estimates, and the specific number will only be known when the results of the battlefield cleaning come out.

"This time the mistake is in me, and I didn't seize the high ground at the entrance at the first time." Wang Ben said.

"I can't blame you entirely, we didn't expect Fan Zeng to be so cautious, the terrain of the first line of heaven is too complicated, and there is a gap at the exit, which gave Xiang Yan time to sort out the retreat of the army, the sky is not as good as the people." Meng Wu said.

If the topography of the first line of heaven is the same as the original Maling Road, it is fine, but the entrance and exit of the first line of heaven are the same situation, the entrance is a hillside, and the exit is also a hillside. Therefore, Meng Wu, who was ambushed at the exit, could easily ambush Xiang Yan, and Wang Ben was also unable to seize the high ground at the first time because of this hillside, so that the Chu army had a chance to breathe.

"The casualties will be properly arranged, and the general needs to report to Xianyang next." Meng Wu patted Wang Ben's shoulder and said.

It was the first time for Wang Ben to participate in a battle of this scale, or to occupy the right time and place, such casualties and almost being broken through by the Chu army, which made Wang Ben, who had never experienced setbacks, feel frustrated for the first time in his heart, and began to doubt himself a little, Meng Wu looked at Wang Ben, his eyes were full of envy.

If you want to become an excellent general, you can't continue to grow without experiencing setbacks and failures, as long as Wang Ben has crossed this hurdle, he will have the opportunity to continue to rise in the future, squeezing into the level of the world's famous generals, this is the only way to plan for military power, as for Yang Duanhe and Li Xin, one of these two people is taking the military situation, and the other is not clear, so far only the young Zhuang faction in the Qin army Yang Duanhe and Wang Ben The future of the two military roads is clear, as for his son Meng Tian's future is also a military strategy, It's just that it hasn't been shown yet.

Wang Ben is not as complicated as Meng Wu thought, in addition to the hurdle in his heart, he wants to make a book of military skills to read. Although military skills refer to the kind of people who use mechanical ingenuity to march and fight, military skills contain not only the use of equipment, but also the use of strategy and geography, such as mountains, rivers and lakes, feng shui and fire, etc., which belong to the school of military skills.

The battlefield cleanup started with the corpses of the Qin soldiers, the corpses of these soldiers were neatly placed, Meng Wu and Wang Ben led the guards to wait on the side, and the other soldiers all went to rest, with the sound of bells and the green lights in the distance, Meng Wu and Wang Ben stood up straight.

There are two more chapters in the afternoon
