Chapter 335: Peak duel (eight)

Then thousands of light cavalry from the Knight Camp followed the three hundred heavy cavalry and broke into the Qi army formation. More than a thousand light cavalry rushing in front showed their shiny ring-headed swords. Through endless close combat, they pulled the gaps that the heavy cavalry broke through. More than two thousand light cavalry who were subsequently supported threw a swagger of flying spears at the heads of the Qi army's heavy armor, causing great damage to the Qi army's heavy armor.

There were about 6,000 light cavalry, and they were divided into two groups, circling the left and right wings of the Qi ring formation, and used cavalry shooting to suppress the Qi army archers and spearmen in the center of several ring formations, so as not to let them shoot arrows or throw flying spears to kill their heavy cavalry and the light cavalry that followed the heavy cavalry into the Qi army formation. For a moment, the Qi army was beaten to no avail!

#############

In the towering car, Lou Jing and Cheng Hei's generals' faces turned pale.

Han Xin also had a solemn expression, and the elite was the real elite. Even if there was no commander of the commander, they could cooperate and show super attack power. Compared with this cavalry, the tens of thousands of Chu cavalry that were fighting with the Qi army ahead were simply a group of mobs!

Han Xin had only seen two such elite soldiers in his life.

One is Xiang Yu's 100,000 elite troops. In the Battle of Gaixia, it would be hard to say whether Han Xin could win in the end if the Chu army had not had enough food. The other is the Chu cavalry in front of him. Under the fierce attack of this Chu cavalry, the 60,000 elite troops of the Qi army were beaten to no avail. If the Qi army does not change its formation, the troops will be defeated in at most half an hour!

After calming down, Han Xin said in a deep voice: "The big flag is back, and the battalions of the central army retreat alternately, while the rest of the army retreats in battle."

"Here!" Cao Qi replied with a loud bang, turned around and came to the back of the car, raising the triangular flags on both sides. In an instant, the Qi Central Army, which was struggling to support, began to retreat slowly. A few hundred steps ahead, the more than 200,000 Qi Army, who were strangling the Chu army with all their might, also stopped the offensive and began to turn around and retreat.

#############

The Chu army was in the main formation, looking above the chariot.

The personal military captain Tie Niu pointed to the front of his finger and said excitedly: "General, look, Qi army is retreating!"

Bi Shu nodded and said coldly: "Han Xin wants to exchange space for time, and try to slowly consume the spirit of my cavalry camp with his advantage of military strength, and then try to counterattack, and make a good plan!"

After saying this, Bi Shu said: "Then the order, the Xiaoqi Battalion will attack with all its strength, and the other armies and battalions will strengthen their offensives, and will entangle the enemy in front of them at all costs. They must not be allowed to withdraw and revolt the Xiaoqi Battalion!"

"Yes!" Tie Niu replied loudly, turned around and shouted, "The general has an order. The cavalry battalion has a strong attack. The rest of the troops and battalions will entangle the enemy in front of him at all costs! At all costs!" More than a dozen commanders guarding the flagpole responded loudly, and raised dozens of triangular flags at the fastest speed.

#############

Pengcheng, the Huainan Army had already broken through the Qi army's front camp, but when attacking the Central Army's camp, it was stubbornly resisted by the Qi army, especially the Qi army's crossbow, which caused great damage to the Huainan Army!

After thousands of elite soldiers were killed and killed, Ying Bu was furious and urgently ordered Zhao Zhen to transfer dozens of catapults.

At this moment, more than 20 catapults were lined up outside the Qi army's central camp. However, before Yingbu's orders, rows of stone bullets roared out of the Qi army's camp. The soldiers of Huainan were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties. Several of the more than 20 catapults had just been set up were also destroyed.

It turns out that Cao Shen had been waiting here for a long time. Even when the war was at its most intense time, even when the front camp was broken, Cao Shen never used a catapult cart and a crossbow. It was not until the Huainan army attacked the central camp that Cao Shen finally sacrificed a bed crossbow. Now, when the Huainan army was about to use a catapult cart to suppress the Qi army's bed crossbow, the Qi army's catapult cart started first.

After the initial panic, the Huainan Army quickly stabilized its position and shot against the Qi army's catapult.

"Damn it!" Ying Bu was still so angry that his hair and hair were all open. It would be fine if he fought like this, but he was so embarrassed to fight like this. How could Ying Bu feel? At this moment, Ying Bu ignored the strong opposition of Zhao Zhen, Fei Zhu and other generals, and personally led three thousand elite troops to launch a fierce attack on the Qi army's central camp.

Ying Bu is not a naughty man, and the three thousand imperial guards have made sufficient preparations.

Rows of giant oars were pushed to the front. These giant oars were all superimposed by giant oars above three sides, with a thickness of more than five inches, which was enough to withstand the shooting of Qi Jun's crossbow! With the cover of the giant oars, Yingbu's three thousand imperial guards advanced to the trench outside the Qi Jun camp without any effort.

Now, the Huainan army can no longer move forward, at least before clearing the deer fort in the trench or filling it up, it can no longer move forward. Of course, at this time, the flying spear of the Huainan army can also pose a threat to the Qi army hiding behind the fence of the camp, especially the Qi army's crossbow, which can no longer be out of storm.

The real fierce battle, which directly concerns the destiny of the two countries, finally began...

#############

On the north bank of Si Shui, fierce battles continue.

Trapped by hundreds of strong men with chests and backs exposed, the towering car was moving slowly forward. On the car, Bi Shu looked solemnly, and fine beads of sweat oozed out from his forehead, between his nose and even in his hair. The feeling of powerlessness that was rejected at all times and was restrained everywhere was still like an indelible haze covering his head.

Because of the fierce attack of the Cavalry Camp, Han Xin had no choice but to give an order to retreat.

But even when he retreated, Han Xin still firmly controlled the situation on the battlefield. If someone had been replaced, the Qi army would have been defeated long ago. However, under Han Xin's command, the Qi army was not in chaos at all. Whether it was the alternate cover between the various armies and battalions, or the cooperation between the various armies, it was perfect!

Although the Chu army attacked fiercely and tried to chasing and destroying the formation of the Qi army, it was still unable to succeed!

Even a light armed camp in the Chu army was surrounded by the Qi army because of its rash advance. When the rest of the army and battalions opened the Qi army's front to rescue the light armed camp, there were only less than one thousand people left!

With his rich experience in battle formations, Han Xin was always able to discover loopholes in the Chu army or the Qi army before Bi Shu, and always reacted before Bi Shu. Perhaps the gap between the two was only a small one, and the time difference in reaction was only a small one, but once it was projected onto the battlefield, this gap was immediately infinitely magnified!

If you lose a slight mistake, you will be a thousand miles away. This is what you mean!

By now, Bi Shu has already made it very clear that the Chu army has no hope of winning!

At the beginning of the war, the Chu army failed to defeat the Qi army with the benefits of weapons, and there was no news about Yingbu's Huainan army for a long time, so it was probably impossible to break the Qi camp. Now, as the last killer weapon, the cavalry attack of the Cavalry Camp could not destroy the Qi army in one fell swoop. Bi Shu was really exhausted.

However, even though he was unable to win, Bi Shu was not very busy.

How could Bi Shu not leave behind when fighting with a powerful opponent like Han Xin? Once the battle situation is unfavorable, the Chu army can retreat into the camp to defend. The camp has a large number of bed crossbows, well railings and catapults. These equipment are specially designed for the Chu army by the Grandmaster of Craftsmen. Both range and lethality are far superior to other countries!

With these sharp equipment and sufficient food and grass, the Chu army had no problem sticking to it for half a year.

But in this way, the fall of Pengcheng and the destruction of Huainan Kingdom will probably be inevitable, and it may also affect the great cause of the king to attack Bashu.

Among the chaos, the speed of the three hundred riders had slowed down.

Xiqilie had clearly heard the heavy breathing sound of the mount under his crotch. Obviously, the physical strength of the war horse was approaching the limit. Although the impact of the iron armored heavy cavalry was unparalleled, its endurance was quite limited. He carried a weight of 700 to 800 kilograms and charged continuously. No matter how strong the war horse was, it would definitely not last long.

So far, only more than ten riders have been lost in the three hundred riders.

However, the situation of the Three Hundred Riders is becoming more and more dangerous. As the horse speed slows down, the pressure faced by the Three Hundred Riders suddenly increases. The Qi army heavy armor formation, which was originally as unbearable as a native chicken and a tile dog, suddenly became thicker and solid. Now, every time the Three Hundred Riders advance a small step, they put in greater efforts.

Xi Qilie took a deep breath of bloody air, slightly relieved his chest and lungs that were about to explode, and then issued a vengeful order to retreat. The heavy cavalry could no longer continue to assault. This was because the Qi army had no experience in fighting against the heavy cavalry. Otherwise, the Qi army would only need to replace the light soldiers and the three hundred heavy cavalry should be explained here!

#############

In the center of the ring formation surrounded by the central army of Qi, Han Xin's car was slowly moving backwards under the guidance of hundreds of strongmen.

Seeing the heavy cavalry of Chu turn and retreat, Han Xin suddenly smiled proudly. What can the attack power of the heavy cavalry of Chu be sharp? In the face of the nearly endless defense of the heavy cavalry of Qi, it has to be stopped! Just like Xiang Yu's 20,000 personal troops were about to kill him, but were not defeated in the end?

Han Xin raised his right hand and said a little excitedly: "When the big flag is moving forward, the central army entangled the Chu cavalry at all costs, and the rest of the troops were divided into groups to rebel, and I could eat this Chu cavalry for me!"

"Here!" Cao Qi, the general of Suwei Lang, responded with a loud noise, turned around and waved his hand, and more than a dozen triangular flags quickly rose up.

In an instant, the Qi central army, which was slowly retreating, stopped retreating and launched a counterattack on the Chu cavalry battalion. The remaining army, which were fighting and retreating, were divided into two groups. One continued to fight with the Chu army in front of him, and the other part reversed backwards, trying to cooperate with the central army to encircle and annihilate the Chu cavalry battalion.

Standing on the car and looking down, I saw that the Qi army's Yanxing Formation was divided into two halves in an instant. One pair still maintained the Yanxing Formation, and the other half was separated from the Yanxing Formation and rolled backwards. The entire Yanxing Formation turned into a butterfly formation.
