50,000 archers of the Qin army released arrows at the same time, making a strong sound of breaking the sky, and the cavalry of Zhao State suddenly heard a buzzing sound, as if the wind was rising, and they didn't know what was going on, so they all looked at each other.
Suddenly, the screams came one after another, and the cavalry of Zhao State were hit by arrows and fell off their horses.
"Oh no, I'm in an ambush. ”
The vanguard of the cavalry of Zhao State saw the ambush of the Qin army, and quickly turned around and wanted to retreat, but the cavalry behind did not know what was happening in front, and they all urged the horses forward.
For a while, the sound of arrows falling from the cavalry of Zhao State, and the screams of the cavalry colliding with each other and trampling on each other were endless, Zhao Kuo saw that the front army was in chaos, and hurriedly ordered someone to find out what was going on.
After a while, the scout came to report, "General, the front army was ambushed by the Qin army as soon as it left the valley, and our army suffered about 5,000 cavalry casualties. ”
At this time, it was getting late, it was dark and dark in all directions, the situation was unknown, and the Qin State ambush in front of it could be that the Qin State deliberately set up an ambush to ambush the Zhao army, or it could be that the Qin army set up an ambush to deliberately delay and block the pace of the main force of the Zhao army.
Now, the Zhao army has chased here, it can be described as a dilemma, and the situation ahead is unknown, if the army is withdrawn, Zhao Kuo is really unwilling, and has lost nearly 20,000 people, and even the shadow of the main force of the Qin army has not been seen, which is too much to say.
Zhao Kuo asked the scouts to hurry to the front to find out the situation of the Qin ambush and how many people there were in the Qin army, so that it would be convenient to make a judgment, and at the same time let the whole army stand by in place.
The three armies of the Zhao army all stopped, those Zhao troops who did not get out of the mouth of the canyon were relatively lucky, there was no danger, those cavalry who had already left the mouth of the canyon were miserable, and became the live target of the Qin soldiers, and after a while, all the seven or eight thousand Zhao cavalry were the souls of the Qin army.
Zhao Kuo was restless in the Chinese army, and the scout came to report, "General, the mouth of the canyon is full of dense forests, it is getting late, and the sight is too poor, so there is no way to know how many people the Qin army has ambushed." ”
When Zhao Kuo heard this, he couldn't help but be furious, "It's really a waste, I don't know what to do with your scouts." ”
"General, although you can't see the Qin army, judging from the density of arrows, it is estimated that there are at least 30,000 people. ”
When Zhao Kuo heard it, he knew that it should be the ambush of the main force of the Qin army, but he didn't expect that Wang Yi still had such a strategy, but since he wanted a decisive battle, then I would accompany you to a decisive battle, where did Zhao Kuo know that the commander of the Qin army had already changed people and was replaced by Bai Qi, if Zhao Kuo knew that it was Bai Qi who was in charge of the army, he would definitely not dare to take it so lightly.
Zhao Kuo's father, Zhao Hao, once told Zhao Kuo that in today's world, he admires one person, that is, Bai Qi, the general of the Qin State, and everyone else is not worth mentioning in his eyes.
Zhao Kuo knew that the main force of the Qin army must be setting up an ambush in front, since this is the case, then it must be a decisive battle with the main force of the Qin army, Zhao Kuo ordered the cavalry of the front army to advance with all their might, and they must rush through the dense forest.
Seeing that Zhao Jun had retreated into the canyon, the Qin archers stopped shooting and waited for Zhao Jun's next move.
The Zhao army received Zhao Kuo's order, and the cavalry of the front army sprinted with all their might, but the mouth of this canyon was too narrow, and at most a hundred or so people could rush out at a time.
Seeing that the Zhao army began to charge, the Qin cavalry began to shoot arrows again, and the 50,000 Qin archers had 10,000 arrows, and the 100 or so cavalry who rushed out had a hairy use, and they all died in a moment.
However, the main general did not order a retreat, and the Zhao cavalry could only rush forward, and after a while, nearly a thousand Zhao cavalry died at the mouth of the canyon.
The corpses of nearly 1,000 Zhao cavalry and war horses almost covered the valley mouth of the entire canyon, and the cavalry behind could only step on the corpses of the cavalry in front of them, so that the march was slower, but in less than a quarter of an hour, more than 3,000 Zhao cavalry were shot dead at the mouth of the canyon.
The narrow canyon mouth was completely filled with the corpses of cavalry and war horses, and the cavalry behind couldn't rush out if they wanted to.
The cavalry of Zhao State breathed a sigh of relief, and then, silently, dragged the bodies of those dead brothers back and buried them on the spot, the morale of the Zhao army was very low, and everyone felt very confused about the prospects.
Zhao Kuo called Zhao Han and asked him to lead a hundred people to hurry back to mobilize grain and grass, and let the follow-up troops come to reinforce, Zhao Han followed the Zhao army for a day, tired and his waist was about to break, he wanted to rest on the spot, but he didn't expect to be caught by Zhao Kuo again, so he had to reluctantly accept Zhao Kuo's general order, take a hundred people, and go on the road again in the boundless night.
Zhao Han scolded Zhao Kuo's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, but he didn't know that it was because Zhao Kuo gave him such a task that he escaped from his life.
The rear of the Zhao army, Hu Kui was in Xiwang Mountain, Du Chen was in Hanwang Mountain, Sikong Ying was in Tangwang Mountain, and Fang Qian was ready in Daliang Mountain.
Early the next morning, Zhao Kuo sent scouts to find out the reality of the Qin army, and as soon as those scouts came out of the canyon, without exception, all died under the Qin army's random arrows.
Zhao Kuo sent cavalry to carry out a tentative charge, so as to observe the reality of the Qin army, this temptation does not matter, Zhao Kuo was taken aback, the archers of the Qin army are at least more than 50,000 people, so many archers are surrounded by the mouth of the canyon, it is strange that the Zhao army can rush out.
Such a situation is to be shut down and beaten by others, and one person is killed when it comes out, there is no suspense at all, if you still insist on not withdrawing the army, it is estimated that the Zhao army will definitely be wiped out at the mouth of this canyon.
Zhao Kuo thought about it again and again, and decided to withdraw the army, leaving Qingshan in the green mountains without fear of no firewood, and could no longer waste blindly with the Qin army here, so he ordered the three armies of Zhao to retreat, the front army to the rear army, and the rear army to the front army, and began to slowly retreat backwards.
The Qin army scout reported the news of Pegasus to Bai Qi, Bai Qi sneered, and said, "I only think of withdrawing the army now, it has already been over, come here, send the news of Zhao Kuo's army being surrounded to Xianyang, and let the king send troops to support." ”
The three armies of the Zhao army slowly retreated backwards, and when they first arrived at Daliang Mountain, they saw countless Qin soldiers emerging from the top of the mountain, and those Qin soldiers threw a large number of rolling stones and trees from the top of the mountain, and the Zhao army was caught off guard, and many people were killed and injured immediately.
The attack on the Zhao army was the Qin army's Fang Qian, and after a rolling stone and a wooden shot, it was a wild shot by five thousand archers, and the Zhao army was shot to the point of crying wolf.
The archers of the Qin army were condescending, and they were strong crossbows, and their power was greatly increased, and the Zhao army shot from the bottom to the top, and the power of the bow and arrow was greatly reduced, and they couldn't even touch the hair of the Qin army.
