After driving away the Qin army patrol post, 500 Zhao troops also climbed the hillside and occupied the ridge. The army of the Gaodu East Route Army unfolded in front of him.

About five miles behind the Qin sentinels was the vanguard of the Qin army's thousand men, who lined up in ten columns; Ten miles further back, there were six columns of 3,000 men. Behind the column was the large camp of the Qin army, and the soldiers were lining up, all carrying a large number of livestock. Obviously, the Qin army was moving their camp to the mountain where they were!

The 500 men of the Zhao army will immediately send people to report to the 10,000 generals behind: there are a large number of Qin troops coming, there are ten teams of about 1,000 people in the front, and a large number of six columns in the rear; At the same time, there was also a movement of the Qin army in the distance, and the purpose was unknown.

Ten thousand people will find that the situation has changed, immediately stop leaving the camp, and send someone to report to Zhao Kuo.

The Qin army, which was five miles away, also saw the Zhao army on the ridge while receiving the sentry report. They immediately changed the ten-column column into five horizontal rows during the march and outflanked the sides of the ridge. Before the envoys sent by the 500 Zhao army ran back to the camp, the Qin army had successfully changed its formation and advanced to the foot of the mountain, and began to advance from both sides to the top of the mountain. The Zhao army had only one hundred archers, and the Qin army moved out of the way and attacked the two sides, making it difficult for the five hundred men of the Zhao army to decide whether to use the archers separately or concentrate on one group.

After a little hesitation, the Qin army had already climbed halfway up the mountain. There is no need to hesitate in the five hundred generals of the Zhao army. He ordered to bend his front and face the rushing Qin army, and when it was a hundred paces away, he gave the order to shoot.

The Qin army wielded a long bamboo pole, which looked much easier than wielding a wooden pole spear of the same length. They did not have many shields, and when they saw the arrows coming at them, they nimbly spread out or lay down to dodge; After dodging the first round of arrows, he ran and rushed up.

The number of the Qin army was originally more than that of the Zhao army, and when one of them fought, the Qin army naturally became two rows of horizontal formations, and the rest of the soldiers naturally moved to both sides, encircling the flanks of the Zhao army at once. The Zhao army was a five-row horizontal formation, folded into two fronts, each front only had fifty people, and after being outflanked, the formation was completely scattered, and they could only fight on their own.

In one-on-one, face-to-face white-knuckle combat, the Qin army's weapons took advantage of it: compared to the heavy and clumsy spear, the bamboo Zhengge was light and agile, and could advance and retreat flexibly; For the same light halberd, the bamboo is better than the longer; For the shield, that, of course, is even more unilateral suppression! Not to mention that the Qin army still has an advantage in combat power. Soon after the start of the battle, Zhao Jun was very difficult and injured many people. Seeing that the situation was not good, the five hundred men immediately ordered to concentrate on breaking through in one direction, and they rushed out with a dozen people around them, and the others who followed also rushed out; The other small groups of soldiers, who had been separated, also rushed out when they saw that the Lord was about to rush out. Due to the bows and arrows that opened the way, after a few volleys, most of them ran out. Five hundred men will quickly gather the people and try to free the soldiers who are surrounded inside. But the Qin army turned its head and outflanked them again, and the five hundred men did not dare to fight, so they had to lead the team to retreat, using bows and arrows as cover to block the approach of the Qin army. Seeing that the Zhao army had reorganized its formation and was bent on retreating, and seeing that there were also Zhao troops assembled in front of Zhao Bi, the Qin army thought that they were reinforcements, and did not dare to chase after them, so they only eliminated the 100 or so Zhao troops that were surrounded, so they slightly reorganized themselves on the mountain and prepared their defensive positions.

When there was a fierce battle on the mountain, 10,000 people would just send someone to report to Zhao Kuo. Everything that happened on the ridge was watched by him and his soldiers, and the battle did not last long, maybe only for a moment, but the thrill in it was still impressive. And the most embarrassing thing for 10,000 people is that today's sortie may be about to come to naught.

After another moment or so, the envoy returned, and the general ordered that the 10,000 men would not have to attack the Danshui Qin army, but instead drive the Qin army that had come from the eastern hills, and if possible, drive their reinforcements as well.

The 10,000-strong general received the order, and while summoning the 500-man general to inquire about the enemy, he ordered the whole army to continue to camp and line, but to turn to the east rather than the south. In the course of the formation, 10,000 men will call 5,000 generals and 1,000 generals to their side, and while listening to the 500 generals report on the enemy's situation, they will indicate the route of attack. According to the opinion of the five hundred generals, if the Zhao army was concentrated and attacked with bows and arrows, the Zhao army could gain the upper hand; If they were broken up and entered a melee, the Qin army would already be difficult to deal with, and the Zhu Zhengge in their hands was too advantageous.

The 5,000 regular soldiers were assembled, and the 5,000 odd soldiers were scattered on both sides and between the formations, and marched towards the mountain to the sound of drums. 10,000 generals, 5,000 generals, 1,000 generals, each with their own battalion to supervise the battle, anyone who cowers, beheaded!

After repulsing the first battalion of the Zhao army and occupying the ridge, the Qin army doctor reported to the rear army the battle results and the situation that the Zhao army had troops fighting on the wall. The Gong Cheng, who led the front army of 4,000 people, ordered the Gong Doctor of the Forward to hold on to the ridge and wait for the arrival of the army.

When the order arrived, Doctor Gong looked at both sides of the mountain, and both Qin and Zhao's teams were only four or five miles away from the mountain. However, since the Qin army was a column and the Zhao army was a horizontal team, the Qin army's marching speed was obviously faster than that of the Zhao army. If he had stayed on the mountain, he could have waited until the army arrived.

But Dr. Gong decided to take the initiative. He called all the doctors together, explained his idea to them, and decided to divide his troops into two directions, attacking the surprise soldiers on both sides.

The odd soldiers on both sides are basically halberd soldiers, without bows and arrows and shields. Although the Qin army had fewer shields, there were many archers: the Shiwu commanders all carried bows and arrows. Doctor Gong believed that if the strange soldiers on both flanks were defeated, the regular soldiers would not dare to abandon them and go directly to the mountain, but would turn around and attack them; And they fought and retreated, moving to the sides. - This buys time for the large army. He told the doctors to be flexible, only fight with odd soldiers, and contain the regular soldiers; Try to avoid fighting regular soldiers.

After deciding on the plan, the prince doctor personally led a battalion on the left and an official doctor led his battalion on the right, and each went down the mountain to meet the Zhao army.

The actions of the Qin army were immediately discovered by the Zhao army, and the ten thousand people were very strange, afraid of any traps, and ordered the troops to stop their advance, and meet them with 500 strange soldiers on each flank.

Doctor Gong didn't want his attack to have such a good result, and he was overjoyed. Ordered the troops to pull out of the horizontal line and meet the Zhao army.

Both sides were five hundred people, the Qin army had archers, and Chang Ge had the advantage, and the battle was almost no suspense. At a distance of 100 paces, the Qin army basically repelled the first attack of the Zhao army with a rain of arrows.

Zhao Jun understood the reality of the Qin army, and sent a thousand strange soldiers to drive away the Qin army. After firing three waves of arrows, the Qin army had already broken up the dense formation of the Zhao army, and the brawlers repelled the Zhao army with a single charge.

In both battles, the Qin army did not stop advancing. After a hundred paces of pursuit, the Qin army collected its troops, and the Zhao army was already close at hand, but it was only a mile away from them. The Qin army took a good time to reorganize, while forming a team, and harvesting the heads of the Zhao army that was shot down, without forgetting to recover the arrows shot and reuse them. Zhao Jun will be even more hesitant and will never dare to take a step forward. Sending surprise soldiers had to send heads, so they didn't dare to send troops to fight. The two armies strangely stopped at a distance of a mile!

Doctor Gong originally wanted to consume it like this, and the large army came up. Not wanting to be on the right flank, the Qin army took the initiative to attack the Zhao army. Doctor Gong secretly cursed stupidity in his heart, and could only order to advance towards the Zhao army.

Zhao Jun was still unwilling to turn the front around, and only met the enemy with surprise troops. When the odd soldiers only advanced to about a hundred paces away from the Qin army, they no longer advanced; And as the Qin army advanced, they moved to both flanks. The Duke was so angry that he ordered to halt his advance and move laterally to the left flank instead to avoid being attacked on the flank. And the Zhao army also extended the front in that direction, and the Qin army moved farther and farther away from the mountain, turning to the rear of the Zhao army.

At this time, the Zhao army came out in unison, cutting off the Qin army's road to Shanliang. The doctor screamed that it was not good, so he had to retreat, and then move to the left flank, trying to get back up the hill.

The Qin army was moved left and right, the front was stretched, and it was driven back. Seeing that the Qin army had no other movements, the 10,000 generals ordered the strange soldiers to pounce up. So there were about 2,000 Zhao troops on each flank, and they rushed towards the 500 Qin army. More than a hundred archers shot desperately, and each of them could only shoot a maximum of ten, although it caused some casualties to the Zhao army, but the battle still entered the stage of white-knuckle fighting.

The archers carried their bows on their backs, drew their short swords, and directed their soldiers into battle.

In the white-knuckle fighting stage, the role of the chief is much greater than that of the doctors. They shouted loudly, and their soldiers gathered or dispersed, and they met each other. Although the Qin army had an advantage in weapons, it could not stand the strength of the Zhao army, and several people fought around one person, completely at a disadvantage. While the doctor was fighting, he ordered to retreat. After withdrawing from Ersanli, Zhao Jun's side also withdrew his troops. The Qin army also pounced on them, preventing them from harming the wounded Qin soldiers as they retreated, and not even giving them a chance to pick up arrows. The Shiwu commanders put their short swords back into their waists, re-drawn their bows and released their arrows, forcing Zhao Jun to go back as fast as he could. Of course, when the Zhao army retreated, they also took all the wounded with them.

After the surprise soldiers drove away the Qin army on both flanks, the main troops of the Zhao army immediately marched towards the mountains. Seeing this, Doctor Gong briefly counted the number of soldiers, left the wounded soldiers in the rear, led the remaining troops, and continued to rush towards the flank of the Zhao army. The Zhao army's strange tactics were repeated, and they spread out towards the two flanks of the Qin army. This time, the Qin army ignored it and rushed in the direction of the Zhao army's main soldiers. The strange soldiers had no choice but to abandon the plan of outflanking the two wings and launch a frontal attack on the Qin army.

The Qin army was not mobilized, maintaining the thickness of the formation, and shooting at the rushing Zhao army with fierce arrows. Doctor Gong's pro-battalion also entered the battle, specially selecting those Zhao soldiers who were approaching and shooting them directly. Approaching soldiers were knocked to the ground by rows of Ge or lifted into the air. Several attacks failed to break through the Qin army's position. Zhao Junqi's psychology finally collapsed and retreated downward. Ten thousand people will have no choice but to turn the front of the main army and prepare to face the battle.
