282 Breaking the attack and ambushing the Qin army's baggage

The convoy transporting the baggage stretched and twisted, like a long snake.

The entire team has nearly 10,000 people!

Of course, there are only a few hundred regular Qin soldiers and soldiers... Most of them are temporary recruitment by the Qin government.

These nearly ten thousand people are just the tip of the iceberg - Qin is mobilizing the whole country to prepare to welcome the three coalition forces of Chu, Wei and Han, which are likely to break out after the beginning of spring. Conservatively estimated that hundreds of thousands of people in Qin are trekking hard at this moment.

This is why Qin is strict and the mobilization ability of the Qin war machine is really strong.

If it were placed in Chu State, it would probably lead to a mutiny!

There was a civil war last year, and this year it encountered a heavy snowfall... The government also had to collect grain, corvee service, and prepare for war... The Qin people were in great pain!

However, these are not what a small leader like Ying Xiao needs to consider.

As night fell, the huge convoy of supplies was still trekking deep and shallow.

Ying Xiao ordered loudly: "Surry forward for another half an hour! There is a valley ahead, so you can camp with the wind."

The Qin army convoy continued to move forward - it was extremely painful to march in the snow, but it was as dark as it was today and its vision was unclear, which made it even more tormented.

Tens of thousands of Qin soldiers and the civilians advanced hard. When they arrived at the "cold" mentioned by Ying Xiao, they were exhausted.

Ying Xiao ordered again: "Camp!"

"This place is one day away from Danyu Camp!"

"We will set out early tomorrow morning and arrive at Danyu before dark!"

After this order, the baggage team complained... but no one dared to argue. Qin's law was extremely strict. If it was a loss of time, it would be a serious crime of beheading.

Just at this moment, a mountain wind blew.

A long whistle came from above... A three-point confusion appeared in Ying Xiao's heart...

So late, there are still people on the mountain?

Dear!

The sound of the bowstrings sounded violently!

The dense arrows shot down from above the valley!

The Qin soldiers beside Ying Xiao were shot to death by arrows before they could react!

shock!

The Chu people's ambush? Impossible! How could the Chu people touch this place? How could they know the specific time when their baggage convoy arrived in this valley?

Ying Xiao showed the unique calmness of a war general. He suppressed the shock in his heart, pulled out the sword from his waist, and let out a long roar: "Attack... Kill up the mountain!"

"Qin Law - Above the battle formation, those who retreat and surrender die! The family is in charge!"

"Cry with me-"

...

The Qin people's reaction was extremely quick.

For this long-distance, exhausted team, they showed an amazing fighting will!

Even the recruited men did not flee in scattered as Xiong Wuliang had expected... Instead, they picked up all the guys who were easy to kill and desperately rushing to the mountain to try to fight back.

Hong Shitou was shocked, but Gu Jing Wubo was on his face: "Continue to shoot arrows!"

Five thousand elite soldiers and five thousand hand-held crossbows.

The dense rain of arrows splashed down - Hong Shitou adopted the tactic of round-trip arrows to ensure that the arrow rain was suppressed continuously.

Even though the Qin people were fierce, they had no effect.

There were only a few hundred Qin soldiers with shields on their hands... Most of the Qin people were civilians.

Although these civilians are commendable for their courage... but they do not have shields on their hands, and they are even more unlikely to wear armor. They are the favorite targets of killing for the new Quyang army's crossbows... The crossbows of the Chu army are condescending and exert their maximum lethality!

Flying arrows are like locusts, and corpses are as piled up as mountains!

Although it was already dark, the Qin people were still very conspicuous targets on the white snow.

The soldiers of Quyang New Army fired arrows ruthlessly, as easy as shooting targets in the school field.

Wherever the arrows were splashed, there was a big rain of blood.

Qin and Chu have been in a bad relationship for many years, and although they have had a short alliance... the hatred of the Chu people towards the Qin people has not diminished at all.

Especially Quyang County - when Xiong Wei was alive, Quyang Jun's lineage was very popular in Chu State... They were all damn Qin State, and Quyang County had been in decline for several years... If it weren't for the little master's wise and divine martial arts, Quyang would have been defeated long ago.

Now that we are taking revenge, no one will be ruthless!

The standard configuration of the new soldiers of Quyang Army is that each person carries thirty arrows - 5,000 elite soldiers, and they carry 150,000 arrows.

It sounds like there are quite a lot... but the crossbows equipped by Quyang New Army are extremely fast firing, and the arrows have been shot out in a short while.

"Hong Qianjiang, no arrows!"

Hong Shitou pulled his sword in his hand, stood up and shouted—

"The arrows and stones are gone, draw your sword to kill the enemy!"

Five thousand new soldiers who had been in charge of energy for a long time stood up from the warm snow tent, whistled down, stepped on the body of the Qin army, and rushed to the death!

...

Ying Xiao leaned on his personal soldiers to raise his shield and tried to protect him. He survived the rain of arrows by chance. He raised his head and felt a little cold.

The bodies of the Qin people were everywhere!

The white snow was covered with blood.

At this time, the Chu army rushed down from the mountain... Ying Xiao took a breath of cold air!

The leader of the Chu general was very brave. He held a spear in his right hand and a sword in his left hand, stabbed and stabbed, and rushed straight down... Even though the Qin civilians were brave, their equipment was too poor and they could not stop the Chu general.

In the blink of an eye, the general of Chu snatched to the vicinity, swung his sword, and actually cut off Ying Xiao's battle flag!

Without the guidance of the flag, the Qin people immediately dispersed. The Chu soldiers were relieved and boldly chased them everywhere, with their hands rising and falling swords.

Ying Xiao roared in despair - all the Chu soldiers in front of him were wearing armor, obviously the first-class elite.

But he just couldn't figure it out!

How did these Chu troops find out where the Qin army's food route is located?

How did you travel through dozens of miles and set up an ambush here?

How did you know the specific time of the arrival of the baggage?

It's impossible that I've been waiting in the snow all the time, right?

Qin Fa, the defeated army died... Although Ying Xiao was a prince of the royal family, he might have the chance to save his life... but he also felt ashamed to go back.

He waved his sword and was about to rush forward to fight against the General Chu!

But he was held back by his personal soldiers: "General! Don't be impulsive!"

"Young Master Zao still doesn't know the situation here. The general needs to go back alive and report to Youth Truly... You should not die in battle because of a moment of intent..."

Ying Xiao's eyes were so angry that he could only grit his teeth: "Retreat...retreat!"

"Scatter breakout!"

...

The battlefield was settled, and large zodiac corpses piled up in the valley.

Hong Shitou laughed happily - this battle was fought happily!

"Hong Qian Generals - the Qin army's corpses are countless, and our army suffered less than 30 casualties! Most of them were minor injuries!" Some soldiers came happily to report.

Hong Shitou was stunned at first, then smiled even more happily.

Although there is no specific number of casualties among the Qin people, there are conservatively thousands of corpses in the valley... but the elite soldiers under his command only have dozens of casualties!

Too exaggerated!

But if you think about it carefully, it is reasonable-

First of all, what was in front of us was not the regular army of Qin, most of them were just unarmed civilians.

Secondly, the Chu army has been raising energy and waiting for labor. The Qin Dynasty's baggage team has traveled a long distance, enduring the cold wind in the snow, and has been running around for a whole day, and has long been exhausted...

Third, the Chu army raided another ambush, and with intentionality but no intentions, the first wave of arrow rains fell, and the Qin people's baggage team had already suffered heavy casualties.

Finally, the Chu army was equipped with very well-equipped - a full set of iron armor, crossbows, and killing these Qin men was simply a dimensional reduction attack.

After a long time, Hong Shitou stopped laughing and ordered in a deep voice-
Chapter completed!
