Sima Jie is very depressed now, in his expectations, but there are several ways to annihilate the rebels in Chen County, but he didn't expect that the rebels would abandon the city and flee.

According to the performance of the rebels holding the city wall a few days ago, it is not at all like an army that will flee in the wilderness.

Could it be that the power of the bow cart just scared them?

After thinking about it, Sima Jie only found such a reason.

Well, it's all because the general of the Shaofu has a high level of ordnance production, and the rebels have lost even the courage to resist.

After chasing for a while, Sima Jie saw that there were hundreds of big trees with lush branches and leaves on the road, and his face was pale: "Come on, clean up the trees, and the speed should be fast." ”

Hundreds of soldiers of the Qin army were ordered to move forward, drew their long knives, cut off the large branches that were linked together, and moved them to the side of the road together with the trunks, clearing a way out.

Sima Jie took the lead and once again led the army to chase in the direction where the rebels had left.

After chasing for a while, Sima Jie stopped in front of a big ditch, and as far as he could see, on the road ahead, there were hundreds of ditches more than one zhang wide.

"Come on, fill this ditch, Ben Shuai still doesn't believe it today, can this rebel escape Ben Shuai's pursuit?"

A moment later, Sima Jie stepped on the filled-in ditch and continued forward.

A quarter of an hour later.

"Come on, take three bridges and come out, Ben Shuai wants to cross the river. ”

Half an hour later.

"Come, move these stones, Ben Shuai will cross this mountain. ”

……

In terms of elite, the rebels were far inferior to the Qin army.

Even if Cao Shen used a lot of means to hinder the Qin army, he failed to make up for the gap between the two sides.

Or maybe the emperor lived up to his wishes and chased for two hours, and Sima Jie finally saw the tail of the rebels.

Seeing that the Qin army appeared five miles away and would soon be able to catch up, Cao Shen sighed softly, he couldn't escape anymore, if he was caught up by the Qin army, he would chase and kill him, and the 35,000 army would collapse at the touch of a button.

So Cao Shen ordered the army to stop and build fortifications on a hill, trying to resist the Qin army by virtue of its geographical advantages.

Five miles of land, it is really not long, Cao Shen led people to build two earthen walls, lined up the formation, Sima Jie and the Qin army appeared three hundred meters away from the rebels.

Cao Shen decisively ordered that 10,000 troops were in front, ready to meet the enemy, 10,000 troops were in the middle, ready to support at any time, and the remaining 15,000 troops were behind, continuing to build fortifications to resist the Qin army.

Sima Jie has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and he still has some experience in how to lead troops into battle.

At a distance of 300 meters from the rebels, Sima Jie struggled to rein in his horse, stopped, and then without saying a word, ordered the arrows to be released.

If you say too many cruel things at the moment, you will seem too stupid, only strength can prove everything.

The 20,000 army had a total of 3,000 archers, and although they were in a bit of a hurry, each of them carried at least three pots of arrows and twelve arrows in one pot, and these 3,000 archers alone brought nearly 100,000 arrows.

Each time, three thousand feathered arrows, forming a rain of arrows, fell on the rebels.

Cao Shen stood in the middle of the rebels, facing the baptism of "arrow rain", calmly teaching the rebel soldiers how to avoid stray arrows.

After pouring more than 50,000 arrows in a row, Sima Jie signaled the archers to retreat, and issued another order, shouting: "Fight with Ben Shuai." ”

After speaking, he took the lead and killed the rebels led by Cao Sen.

The elite of the Qin army is stronger than that of the rebels, but the rebels occupy a favorable position, and as soon as the two sides fight, it can be said that the fight is inseparable.

But as time went on, the Qin army gradually gained the upper hand and gradually pressed the rebels.

In less than half an hour, the rebels responsible for defending the first line of defense, with more than half of the casualties, retreated involuntarily.

In order to prevent the rout of the first line of defense from impacting the second line of defense, Cao Shen immediately ordered: "Brothers who belong to the first line of defense, withdraw and rest, and build the third line of defense by the way." ”

"Brothers of the second line of defense, forward, ready to fight. ”

Cao Shen's defensive style, from a certain point of view, is completely correct.

However, there is a huge difference in the strength of the two sides, and no matter what method Cao Shen uses, he is powerless to change this fact.

When the 20,000 Qin troops suffered a quarter of the casualties, the rebels no longer had too fierce resistance, not because they didn't want to, but because they really didn't have any.

Because the army of 35,000 is almost dying.

In order to save the remaining rebels as much as possible, Cao Shen could only retreat again and again, and finally retreated to the top of the mountain, with no way out.

Sima Jie, who was originally a little depressed, was in a good mood at the moment, slowly walked up to Cao Shen, and asked, "The way to obstruct traffic, but you came up with it?"

Cao Shen replied with a smile: "Some small methods that do not enter the stream cannot enter your eyes, so you can see and laugh." ”

Sima Jie was very satisfied with Cao Shen's attitude, and said a little arrogantly: "Qing Ben is a beautiful woman, why should you be a thief? Ben Shuai cherishes your talent very much, you can lead the army to surrender." ”

Cao Shen didn't think it was wrong, so he thought about it for a while, and said, "Your Excellency, can you give me more time to think about it carefully?"

Sima Jie glanced at the top of the mountain, there were not many rebel soldiers left, and they could be destroyed in an instant, so he pretended to be generous and said: "How about this marshal give you an hour to think about?"

Cao Shen smiled softly when he heard this, bowed down, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your understanding." ”

Sima Jie immediately ordered the Qin army to retreat a hundred meters, leaving a little space for the other party.

At the beginning, Sima Jie was very angry with the rebel general, and he couldn't wait to order the corpse to be broken into thousands of pieces, until he had just won the battle, and the whole person was much more comfortable.

It's not ordinary people who can come up with a hundred or ten ways to obstruct traffic.

In order to be able to accept Cao Shen as a guest, Sima Jie can be said to be thoughtful and well-intentioned.

For Cao Shen, the time Sima Jie gave him to think about it can be regarded as procrastination.

You can't give up until the last minute, can you?

Half of the time passed quickly, and suddenly, the small mountain shook continuously.

Cao Shen looked surprised, could it be that he moved?

At this moment, the Qin army scouts rushed over and shouted to Sima Jie: "Qiqi Marshal, there is a large army found in the north, about 50,000, less than three miles away from here, the origin is unknown, please be careful." ”

Sima Jie was stunned when he heard this: "North, could it be the reinforcements sent by Liu Ji?"

Immediately, Sima Jie smiled: "It's just right, come here, line up, and prepare to fight." ”

Then Sima Jie looked at Cao Shen and asked in a deep voice, "What are you thinking about?"

Cao Shen replied with a smile: "Now that reinforcements have arrived, how dare you surrender lightly?"

Sima Jie smiled angrily and said, "Do you think that a mere 50,000 rebels will be the 20,000 elite opponents of Ben Shuai?"

Cao Shen said disapprerovitously: "Yes or no, Your Excellency will wait a while, won't you know?"

Sima Jie's face showed a fierce light: "Since this is the case, Ben Shuai can't keep you." ”

After speaking, he will go forward to take Cao Shen's life.

I saw Cao Shen unhurriedly took out a talisman from his arms.

The talisman dissolved, forming a shield that protected Cao Shen in it.

There are not many other things in Confucianism, and there are not a few things like this kind of life-saving.

Liu Ji specially wrote a letter to the Confucian saint and asked for a lot of such talisman treasures.

Cao Shen, as Liu Ji's heavy minister, was fortunate to get some.

Sima Jie tried his best, but he only made the shield shake a few times, and he couldn't break it at all.

At the same time, an army of 50,000 people who did not know where to come had already arrived, and they couldn't help but rush towards Sima Jie's army.

"I can't help myself," Sima Jie said casually with a smile on his face.

What surprised Sima Jie was that the 50,000 unknown army easily tore through the defense line of the 20,000 Qin army and harvested the heads.

It was almost crushed, and the 20,000 Qin army was defeated and retreated, and the array was in chaos.

Sima Jie roared in disbelief: "You can't be a rebel. ”

The whole person pounced, wanting to rely on the peak strength of the Divine Soul Realm to save the decline.

In the unknown army, two people immediately flew out and blocked Sima Jie, making him completely unable to support the Qin army.

Even the two joined forces, making the flustered Sima Jie in danger.

A quarter of an hour later, Sima Jie desperately paid the price of an arm and escaped by chance.

The 20,000-strong army was not so lucky, and was left on the hillside.
