Chapter 745: Crossbows defeated Zhang Ren's ambush (second update)

"Retreat, withdraw."

Although Zhang Ren was brave and stabbed some Chu soldiers with a gun to death, the soldiers behind him kept falling down. The casualties of Chu soldiers were very light.

This army is too strong, really too strong.

Although Zhang Ren still had a sense of fighting, he did not dare to confront the Chu army on this flat ground again.

In addition, thinking of an ambush in the forest, Zhang Ren couldn't help but push it and shouted.

The soldiers also knew how to act today and how to pretend to retreat. Therefore, with Zhang Ren's order, the soldiers turned around and left.

However, it was not a pretending, but a defeat by the Pojun camp led by Chen Da.

"Chase and kill." Chen Da was overjoyed when he saw this and shouted. Because he was in a relatively low position, Zhang Ren's army was defeated in an instant.

Therefore, the knife on Chen Da's hand has not yet been seen.

The whole person is also full of energy.

"General, the emperor has an order to stop pursuing." But at this time, the rear army where Kou Feng was located had already laddered on the river.

The soldiers climbed past the ladder. The commander came over and ordered Chen Da.

"Don't chase the defeated enemy?" Zhang Ren asked.

"The emperor means that the enemy wants to pursue the enemy, but Zhang Ren is not a brave but unscheming person. The mountains and forests in this area are high and dense. If the general pursues it rashly, he may encounter ambush again. Therefore, the emperor means that a thousand crossbow soldiers cross the river and pursue them with the general." The messenger explained.

"Stop chasing first." Chen Da roared first, then looked at the dense forest ahead thoughtfully. Zhang Ren, who was still fighting just now, has now disappeared into the forest.

As a local snake, Zhang Ren should have a very good understanding of the terrain of this area. If you are not careful, you will be ambushed. The old saying goes, don’t chase the enemy.

It is indeed a famous saying.

However, if there are crossbow soldiers, even if they fight with Zhang Ren in the dense forest, they will probably have the upper hand.

The battle on the ground is fighting for the courage of blood and courage, and the battle in the forest is fighting for the cold arrow.

At that time, the reason why Kou Feng was so happy to get the Chu crossbow was that in addition to being able to deal with cavalry, he also had a very advantage in entering Shu.

Therefore, when Chen Da thought about this, he felt a little scared and sweated. He was so careless. If he did not bring the crossbow soldiers in, the 800 soldiers in the army might have been shot and killed by cold arrows.

Then the loss will be huge.

Because of the siege, the Chu army brought a large number of ladders in and then dropped them down. Not long after, a thousand crossbow soldiers passed through at full speed.

"Eight hundred soldiers of the Po Army camp, two hundred soldiers of the Shen'er's camp, and one thousand crossbow soldiers, follow me into the forest to chase Zhang Ren." Seeing this, Chen Da immediately led two thousand soldiers to chase him into the dense forest with an order.

In just a moment, it disappeared into the dense forest.

The rear army in the rear had completely stopped, and Kou Feng also ordered the soldiers to build a simple bridge.

Kou Feng himself also got off the war horse and found a big stone to sit down. Xiang Chong, Deng Ai stood beside Kou Feng.

"Your Majesty, isn't it a little rash to chase in like this?" Xiang Chong said worriedly.

Kou Feng smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Zhang Ren took the risk to leave the city, must have won a game, boosted the morale of their side, and defeated the momentum of our Chu army. This is not the case for our Chu State. If Zhang Ren's thousands of troops could be left in one battle, or even captured Zhang Ren himself alive. The defenses in this originally strong Fuling and Ba County area would have cracks."

"Since there is no strategy to defeat the enemy, we can only attack hard. If you give us a good opportunity today, of course we must seize it." Deng Ai nodded and said.

"Yes." Xiang Chong nodded and secretly wrote it down in his heart.

Kou Feng's rear army was waiting for the bridge to be built before advancing. Zhang Ren led his army into the dense forest and fled for a while.

Chen Da was not chasing him.

Zhang Ren couldn't help but order: "Stop."

With Zhang Ren's order, thousands of soldiers stopped immediately.

"General." The deputy general clasped his fists.

"That general Kou Feng was not fooled and did useless work." Zhang Ren sighed and said.

Zhang Ren was too shocked just now and didn't think about it. But now I think about it carefully. The one who killed his army just now must not be an unknown person. Even if the Chu State has many elite soldiers, it is impossible for everyone to be like that group of soldiers.

Each of them is tall and strong, much stronger than ordinary people. He is not afraid of life and death, and is very brave to fight and kill.

This reminded Zhang Ren of the famous Pojun Battalion in the State of Chu. In addition, the commander-in-chief just now happened to be Chen again.

It must be the broken military camp led by Chen Da, the general of Chu.

It is natural that the other party is a general of Chu State. It is possible to know the reality and see through his simple strategy.

Zhang Ren felt a little bitter in his heart. Although he lost to the most powerful Pojun camp in Chu, it seemed that he was not too embarrassed. However, this ambush battle that was sure of victory was fought like this.

Although the soldiers were not killed or injured, some of them were killed or injured after all. This was a huge blow to morale.

Zhang Ren raised his head and looked around. Although there were endless dense forests blocking him, Zhang Ren could not see the thousands of soldiers under the tent, but he could clearly feel a sense of depression.

"It's really counterproductive. I wouldn't have come out if I had known it." Zhang Ren hated a lot.

However, just when Zhang Ren was very regretful, a spy in charge of cutting off the rear rushed to Zhang Ren and reported: "General, there is movement in the rear. Maybe the pursuers have arrived."

The pursuit of the soldiers should have been a matter of fear. However, the spy had no panic on his face, but instead he was full of joy.

Because the spies knew that the ambush they set up was useful.

This time, the Chu army will definitely look good.

"I actually chased after me. Are you blindly arrogant or confident and arrogant?" Zhang Ren was immediately overjoyed, laughed loudly, and ordered: "Let's go, retreat to the ambush."

"promise."

At this moment, the soldiers, the defeated army just now, all responded to the promise, and walked towards the depths of the dense forest with Zhang Ren in high spirits.

Behind, not far away.

Chen Da also walked on foot, with soldiers protecting him in front of him and behind him. The soldiers in the Pojun camp were in front, the Divine Arm camp was on the side, and the crossbowman was behind.

Be organized.

However, the distance between the trees here is very fine and it is a bit slow to move.

"General, there are traces. It should be very close." At this time, the spy in front found some signs and reported back.

"Continue to pursue, remember, don't panic when you encounter ambush. Our crossbow soldiers have very fast archery speed and can kill Zhang Ren's army in a short time." Chen Da said with an order.

The most important thing about this is to say to the group of crossbow soldiers, after all, they don’t have enough experience in the battle.

"No." The soldiers all agreed and slightly accelerated their speed.

Soon, Chen Da and others came to a small hillside. Not only was there dense forests, but there was also a mountain, a place that was very suitable for ambushing.

"Swoosh swosh swosh swosh." Before Chen Da could order, arrows flew over the sky.

"Puchi, Puchi." Some soldiers from the army camp did not rush to avoid it and were shot on the spot. However, they were also cruel and immediately cut off the arrows and hid behind the trees.

"Kill." At this time, an army rushed down from the small hill ahead, and was the leader of the general. It was really Zhang Ren.

At this moment, Zhang Ren's expression was completely depressed, and he was full of excitement. He shouted and rushed over.

"The crossbow soldiers came forward and shot thousands of arrows at once. But they wanted to avoid Zhang Ren. The emperor said they wanted to capture him alive." Seeing this, Chen Da couldn't help but sneer and shouted.

"No." More than a thousand crossbow soldiers stepped forward and pulled the trigger.

Crossbow arrows are originally powerful and can be shot out, a tool of war with lightning speed. What's more, a thousand people are fired together, and they can be fired ten times in a row.

"Puchi, puchi, puchi."

Row after row, countless Zhang Renjun soldiers fell into pools of blood and died with their eyes closed.

Zhang Ren's eyes suddenly opened. What did he see? The arrows in the sky and the crossbowmen continuously pulled the trigger, and there was no sign of loading arrows.

This crossbow? Can this be continuously launched?

Zhang Ren was really completely confused this time. No matter how brave Ren Zhang Ren was, he could not be able to remain calm in such a scene.

His elite soldiers kept falling to the ground and wailing under the crossbow. However, the crossbow soldiers in front pulled the trigger again and again.

It completely broke the impression that the crossbow could only be fired once and then the arrow was loaded once.

Although Zhang Ren was not afraid of death, at this moment, he lost the courage to continue fighting. This was a massacre, this was a naked massacre.

Fortunately, he had just tampered with the bridge near Jinyan Bridge, causing Kou Feng's army to separate from each other and did not encounter this crossbow soldier.

If they meet on the plain, wouldn’t his army be harvested like wheat?

"Scatter, disperse. Withdraw and return to Fuling to report on your own." At this moment, even though Zhang Ren was loyal and brave, he would no longer dare to compete with the Chu army on the plains and on the mountains and forests.

Retreat to the city was Zhang Ren’s only thought at this moment.

"Let's go." Zhang Ren's loyalty is very famous in Yizhou, and he is even more afraid of death. He is afraid of it, let alone, seeing the ordinary soldiers who were killed in the past with their own eyes.

With Zhang Ren's order, he immediately scattered and ran away in all directions with no chance.

These soldiers are all from Shu and are best at walking in complex roads such as mountain roads, dense forests, etc. Therefore, Zhang Ren was not worried that they would be lost.

Finally, he looked at countless soldiers lying on the ground with distress. Zhang Ren gritted his teeth and turned around and left.

Several jumps quickly disappeared into the dense forest.

"Chasing Zhang Ren, don't care about the rest." Chen Dana would not let Zhang Ren go and ordered.

"No." Except for leaving a few people to take care of the injured, most of the rest immediately chased in the direction where Zhang Ren disappeared.
