"Keep it up! After running another twenty miles, our army will arrive at Shouchun City! ”

"Shangzhu State has sent a military report, please Qu Zuoyin's troops to build a position in Shouchun City, as long as we escape to Shouchun, we can live!"

"As long as you can't die, run to death! As long as we escape back to Shouchun City......"

During the Battle of Huayang, Bai Qi led the elite infantry to complete the rapid rush of 800 miles in eight days at the speed of traveling 100 miles a day, defeating the Zhao and Wei coalition forces, beheading 150,000 people and killing 20,000 prisoners, which went down in history.

But in this battle, the Chu army completed a rapid march of nearly 800 miles in only six days under the pressure of Ying Chengcheng!

Even if there are Chu troops who run to death from time to time, the rest of the Chu troops continue to run and never stop.

This is not only because there is a Qin army behind the unremitting pursuit, but also because all the Chu troops have a belief in their hearts.

As long as they escape back to Shouchun City, they will survive!

But when they really approached Shouchun City, they were greeted not by the camped tents, the hot soup and rice, and the brave friendly troops.

It's a battlefield full of corpses!

Looking at the Qin troops scattered around Shouchun City, looking at the flags floating at the head of Shouchun City, and looking at the friendly troops that rushed to break through, all the Chu troops were stunned.

"What the hell is going on!"

"Shouchun City, has it fallen?"

"Then can we still live!"

"I don't want to die! Woo woo ~ I want to go home! ”

The belief that has always supported them does not exist anymore!

Many soldiers had relied on a spirit to come here, and when they saw the flag of the Qin State fluttering at the head of Shouchun City, they could no longer hold on, and fell to the ground as soon as their eyes were closed.

No one knows if they are unconscious or dead.

No one cared if they could get back on their feet.

Most of the soldiers had lost their focus, and only a few generals could still notice the friendly forces that were galloping towards them.

"Shangzhu Country!" Zuo Yin Quhuan couldn't wait to ride his horse and rush to the front of this army, holding the tiger talisman in his hand to break through the barrier of Xiang Yan's department, and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Your department is finally here!" ”

Looking at Qu Huan, who was stained with blood and two arrows in his body, Xiang Yan's voice was extremely bitter: "Shouchun City has also fallen!" ”

Qu Huan lowered his head, clenched the reins, and said with a face full of self-reproach: "It's Ben Jiang who is incompetent!" ”

"Qin Shangzhu Guojian first defrauded the main force of our army by luring the enemy, and then stormed Shouchun City at any cost."

"Last night, the Qin army captured the city wall of Shouchun."

"The main force of our department quickly returned to help, and fought to the death in the city, but it couldn't resist after all."

"Ben will have to lead the remnants of the army out of Shouchun City."

Qu Huan looked at Xiang Yan with burning eyes: "Fortunately, Shangzhu came in time." ”

"Now the Qin army has just captured Shouchun, and Shouchun City has not yet been repaired, and the Qin army is exhausted."

"As long as you and I join forces to cover up and kill, we will definitely be able to ......"

Qu Huan's voice should have become more and more high-pitched.

But as he spoke, Qu Huan's voice became smaller and smaller, and finally dissipated completely.

It's just because he finally noticed Xiang Yan's dusty body.

noticed the tired, desperate, and hopeless gazes of Xiang Yan's soldiers.

even noticed the Chu Jun who died violently and fell.

How can this be the appearance of reinforcements!

An uneasiness rose in Qu Huan's heart.

Swallowing his saliva with difficulty, Qu Huan asked cautiously: "Shangzhu Kingdom, isn't your army here to help our department?" ”

Xiang Yan's voice was also extremely bitter: "Our army is also defeated!" ”

In just five words, it hit Qu Huan's heart like a heavy hammer.

When Wang Jian stormed Shouchun City, Qu Huan was extremely looking forward to the arrival of Xiang Yan's subordinates.

But when Xiang Yan's department really arrived, Qu Huan found that this was not a victorious division, nor was it a timely reinforcement, but just a huddle of two remnants of the defeated army for warmth!

The anticipation and excitement in Qu Huan's eyes faded.

Jing Chou cried out in despair: "There are only a few thousand soldiers left in our army, and there is not much grain and grass left, and Qin Chang'anjun's headquarters is fifty miles behind. ”

"Our army came to Shouchun City to find reinforcements!"

"Your subordinates have been defeated!"

Qu Huan's gaze turned to fear.

This is not a huddle between two remnants of the defeated army to warm up.

Co-author Xiang Yan's department not only failed to bring them reinforcements, but instead brought them pursuers!

Qu Huan asked in a loud voice: "Shangzhu Country, what should our army do?" ”

"There are only more than 10,000 soldiers left in our army!"

The Ying Cheng Sect in the rear was chasing endlessly, and not far from him was Wang Qian's department.

The two Qin armies combined had at least more than 300,000 imposing soldiers, but the Chu army had less than 20,000 remnants left.

What else can I do?

This battle has reached this level, it may not be useful to ask Bai Qi to take command, and Liu Xiu has to be allowed to make a comeback!

Taking a deep breath of cold air, Xiang Yan said bitterly: "Throw away the armor!" Keep running! ”

Jing Chou said sadly: "I'm afraid that our soldiers and horses can't run anymore." ”

Xiang Yan's soldiers and horses have been running for six days, and their physical strength has already reached the limit, and their running speed cannot be improved.

Compared to the Ying Cheng Division, their speed is indeed faster.

But if Wang Jian sent his new force to chase and kill, they wouldn't be able to run away at all!

Moreover, the fall of Shouchun City was a huge psychological blow to Xiang Yan's corporaries.

Without the support of their hearts, these soldiers may have no motivation to continue running.

Xiang Yan said calmly: "You can run as much as you can." ”

"If they couldn't escape, they would have been allowed to surrender."

"When the king blames, Ben will bear all the responsibility!"

All the generals looked at Xiang Yan in amazement.

Ordinary soldiers have either long since died in battle or have snuck away.

Those who can follow them to the present are the relatives of the nine clans of the generals.

Xiang Yan's order was at the cost of the heavier responsibility on his back, giving the children of all ethnic groups a way out!

Jing Chou immediately bowed his hand: "Thank you Shangzhu Kingdom!" ”

"The grace of the Shangzhu country, we should all remember it!"

All the remaining generals also bowed their hands in unison: "Thank you, Shangzhuguo!" ”

"The last general will definitely lobby the clan and speak for the Shangzhu country!"

Xiang Yan squeezed out a slight smile and returned the salute: "Thank you." ”

"There is not enough time, so please send orders to all the departments immediately."

"Our army has no time to rest, and will continue to advance eastward immediately!"

All the generals bowed their hands in unison: "Only! ”

——

Throwing off armor is often used to describe a fiasco.

But in fact, throwing off the armor is like the escape wisdom of a gecko's broken tail!

As Xiang Yan gave the order to throw away his armor and unload his armor, a large pile of top-notch equipment exploded on the battlefield, dazzling the eyes of all Qin troops.

"My great water! It's fine armor! ”

"Look at this knife! It's gold! ”

"Gold is a big deal, look at this armor, this is decorated with beautiful jade!"

Seeing this superb equipment all over the ground, the Qin army under Wang Jian suddenly couldn't walk.

Instead of going through a lot of effort and taking a big risk to chase a group of enemy troops, why not bend down and pick up a piece of gold?

The rebel army under the command of Ying Cheng Chan swarmed towards the armor blade like a greedy hound.

If it weren't for the military judge behind him, these rebel armies would probably fight without hesitation!

It's all money!

His gaze shifted from the chaotic battlefield to the running Chu army, and Yang Duanhe's face was full of smiles: "The last general also wants to invite a partial division to reinforce Chang'anjun's department." ”

"But now it seems that Chang'anjun won the victory earlier than my department."

"Chang'an-kun, worthy of Chang'an-jun!"

Wang Jian smiled happily: "It is really the luck of Great Qin to be able to get Chang'an Jun, and it is also a blessing for us." ”

"Let's go, follow Ben out of the city to greet him!"

Led hundreds of soldiers, Wang Qian, Yang Duanhe and other generals went out of the city together and headed towards the west.

Soon, a big shot appeared in front of the generals.

Wang Jian sat on the horse, smiled and arched his hand: "I heard that Chang'an Jun won a big victory. ”

"Ben will be Chang'an Junhe!"

Ying Cheng rode his horse in front of Wang Qian, and returned the salute with a smile: "General Wang broke Qu Huan's department and captured Shouchun, the former capital of Chu, and even made the remnants of the Chu army have no way to enter the city, so they have to continue to flee in a hurry." ”

"This general is also the king general!"

The generals on both sides laughed heartily.

The two armies won decisive victories in two battlefields at the same time, inflicting heavy losses on the Chu army, which made the generals of both sides maintain extremely high enthusiasm and confidence in this battle.

After a few words of greeting, Wang Jian said directly: "There are about 13,000 remnants of the remnants of Chu Zuo Yin Huan's department. ”

"There are about 4,000 remnants of the Chu Shangzhu State."

"Just now, these two troops and horses have completed the merger, and they have lost their armor and left their tired soldiers to continue to flee."

"The general only sent the troops who had just attacked the city to continue the pursuit, and did not send a fresh force to chase and kill."

Ying Chengcheng thought about it for a while, and then understood Wang Qian's plan: "Admiral Wang is ready to take advantage of the situation to pursue?" ”

Since Wang Jian deliberately did not use the new force, he was obviously not ready to chase and kill the Chu army, but was ready to drive the Chu army!

Wang Jian nodded and said, "My Great Qin's grain and grass are still enough to support our army to fight for a few more months. ”

"And the grain stored in Shouchun City is enough to support our army for more than a month."

"Such a good opportunity, I would have thought that I should not miss it!"

Ying Chengcheng agreed without hesitation: "This is also what the general wants!" ”

"The previous time the king of Chu sent troops to attack Qin, and he would have broken through Shouchun City to tell him."

"This time, the king of Chu sent troops to attack Qin again, and the general should break through the city again, and let the Chu country pay the price of blood!"

When Ying Cheng Chan fought Xiang Yan alone, he was still a little nervous and unconfident, so Ying Cheng Chan would subconsciously look for all the methods that could be used.

But the two successive victories gave Ying Chengcheng confidence, and Wang Qian's arrival dispelled the last trace of worry in Ying Chengcheng's heart.

Come! Battle!

Whoever instigates is the dog!

Wang Jian was stunned: "Chang'anjun, this battle of my Great Qin is definitely not a battle to destroy the country and break the capital. ”

"The king just asked us to fight back the Chu army and try to collect some grain and grass to reduce the pressure on the country."

"And now that Zhao is still at war with our army, the pressure on General Qi's department is not small."

"I want to take all the north of the Yangtze River, and I don't have the intention of watching the city!"

Wang Jian originally thought that Ying Chengchan, like him, was ready to conquer the grain-producing areas of Chu State, so as to take away the grain stocks of Chu State and relieve the pressure on grain and grass in the country.

As a result, Ying Chengcheng actually went to the capital of Chu State?

There was no such plan before the war!

Mind him, my lord!
