Chapter 110
"Is this Ge Ying crazy with 50,000 attacking 100,000? I want to eat Ge Ying's entire army?" Hu Hai murmured to himself.
The four guards behind him looked calm. They all knew that this emperor liked to charge and must protect the personal safety of the second generation.
The left and right armies were ready, and the three armies formed an inverted Pin shape, facing Ge Ying's troops, as if they were surrounded by a half.
When Ge Ying saw the powerful lineup of the Qin army, a hint of bitterness appeared in her heart. This was not an attack on the empty city, but it was clearly a delivery to others.
He wanted to retreat, but when he thought of the fate of fleeing back to the general from Zhou Wen's defeated army a few days ago, Ge Ying sighed inwardly: King Chen's methods are cruel, and he will kill the nine clans when he escapes back.
With the nerve to bite, Ge Ying conveyed the general: "Concentrate all his troops and attack the enemy's central army."
The sound of "dongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong" war drums came from Zhang Chu's army. Teams of infantry held their shields high and pushed forward with halberds in their hands. Instead of advancing quickly, they lined up in neat teams, using shields to form a protective formation to prevent the Qin army's bows and arrows.
The Qin army was famous for its bows and arrows. Although Ge Ying was not a famous general, she still knew how to use the minimum defensive formation.
As the battle formation of Zhang Chu's soldiers advanced, several lieutenants who commanded the bows and arrows in the Qin army ordered the bows and arrows together, and all the archers were bent in the bows like a full moon, with long arrows pointing to the sky. Just when the Zhang Chu's army entered the attack distance, thousands of arrows were fired at the same time.
One side of the two armies was silent like death, while the other side only had the "rattle" sound of armor rubbing during marching.
The four fields were filled with fighting spirit and murderous aura.
When Zhang Chu's army was a hundred feet away from the Qin army, the lieutenant responsible for commanding the crossbow soldiers raised the long sword in his hand. The effective shooting distance of the Qin crossbow was within a hundred feet.
Once more than a hundred feet, Zhang Chujun's movement speed increased significantly, and they tried to pass through this fatal distance as soon as possible.
The Qin army did not fire arrows. They were waiting for more Zhang Chu soldiers to enter the shooting range.
"Kill." When approaching the Qin army seventy feet, Zhang Chu army roared and began to charge.
"Let it go!" Almost as they launched a charge, several lieutenants put down their long swords at the same time.
"Bang!" The sound of the uniform bowstrings shook the whole field.
Bows and arrows flew up directly from the Qin army like black clouds in the sky, drawing a deadly arc in the sky and heading straight for Zhang Chu army formation.
"Defend!" A roar broke out in Zhang Chu's army. The formations that were already somewhat scattered because of the charge, were immediately reorganized. Although they were a little messy, they could still resist bows and arrows.
The arrows were like rain, and few were blocked by Zhang Chu's soldiers' shields, and more of them fell behind the shields and above their bodies. Bright blood flowers exploded under the strong bow and crossbow.
Immediately, wailing everywhere.
"Crash!" General Zhang Chu, who was shocked by the Qin army's long-distance bow and arrow, immediately issued a charge order, attempting to cross this death zone.
"Bang", "Bang", "Bang"
Three huge bowstrings that shook the four fields from three different directions.
When Zhang Chu's army rushed into the range of 50 meters in the central army, the bows and arrows of the left and right armies of the Qin army also reached an effective shooting distance, and three waves of black rain of arrows shot out from different directions.
As the rain of arrows fell, Zhang Chujun fell in large numbers. The lucky ones were shot through the head and chest and died on the spot. The bad luck was nailed to the ground and howled, and they would not die for a while and suffer alive.
Very few people with strong and lucky skills avoided the rainy bows and arrows and rushed straight to the Qin army formation.
"Bow and arrow shot straight." Under the command of the captain, all the archers laid flat bows and arrows and shot arrows at the rushing Zhang Chu soldiers. The soldiers with their feet still shot the Zhang Chu soldiers behind them into the air.
Under several rounds of volleys, Zhang Chu's vanguard's troops died heavily, but some people rushed to the Qin army.
The archers in the front row separated and evacuated before Zhang Chu's army rushed forward. Teams of light cavalrymen who had already prepared had rushed straight towards them, and even more powerful chariot troops were thrust forward.
"Kill!" The Qin army finally broke the silence and burst out with its first roar.
As the Qin cavalry began to attack, the two armies immediately collided bloodily. As the central army moved forward, the left and right wings of the Qin army remained half-encircled, and kept shooting bows and arrows at the subsequent Zhang Chu soldiers.
In this state, Ge Ying's army was dead. At this time, Ge Ying was scared out of her courage and had no intention of fighting again. After the vanguard rushed out of the troops, he was ready to evacuate. The poor vanguards did not know that they were going on one after another under the rain of arrows, and their chief general was ready to escape.
Hu Hai stood on the horse and saw a large flag embroidered with the word "六" slowly moving back from afar.
"Ge Ying is about to escape, and order the two wings to surround and pursue him." Hu Hai pulled out his long sword, rushed out with his horse, and chopped over a soldier Zhang Chu who was blocking him. Behind him, several guards took action, and in Zhang Chu's army it was like cutting melons and vegetables.
The 100,000 Qin troops began to attack, and the sound shook the four fields. Ge Ying rushed over and the dead and wounded vanguard could hardly stop the Qin army for a moment, and was strangled into the black military formation.
After the cavalry and chariots, some soldiers who were injured and fell to the ground were also trampled to death.
"Retreat!" Ge Ying no longer cared about the complete military formation, and roared wildly and fled backwards. As long as he returned to Gaoyang City, he could use the city wall to block the Qin army's footsteps until the reinforcements from Chen County arrived. This may be a glimmer of his life. Now he regretted the impulsive decision just now. It was obviously not wise to fight the Qin army head-on.
With Ge Ying's roar, Zhang Chu's soldiers seemed to collapse and threw away their armor. When they came, they were like tides, but when they retreated, they were like waves hitting the rocks, shattering and scattering.
Once the military formation collapses, there will be no more power to turn the world back.
The two wings of the Qin army immediately surrounded most of the Zhang Chu soldiers who followed Ge Ying in the center. Only a few soldiers following Ge Ying fled in time and did not fall into the encirclement.
In the army on both wings, a general on the left waved his mace and killed his flesh and blood. A young black-faced general on the right danced his spear with a long spear, rushing left and right in the crowd like chopping melons and vegetables.
"Don't kill those who surrender!" A loud roar came from the central army.
"Don't kill those who surrender." Then almost all the central army roared, overshadowing the noise and wailing on the battlefield.
The soldiers of Zhang Chu, who had already distracted, saw that the master general had fled, who would die in vain? They immediately knelt down in a dark way.
Su Jiao waved his mace and yelled. He had not killed enough. Helplessly, the order for the surrendered person to not kill came from the second generation Hu Hai, and he did not dare to violate it. After roaring a few unwillingly, he looked at the direction of Ge Ying's escape, waved his mace and yelled: "I am not satisfied, chase Ge Ying with me and go straight to Gaoyang."
As he said that, he waved the mace covered with blood and flesh, and rushed straight towards Gao Yang. Behind him, ten thousand Qin soldiers followed closely.
Hu Hai smiled slightly and simply asked Su Jiao to be a vanguard. He left some of his troops and asked Ren Xiao to command and conquer the surrendered soldiers. He led the main force of the Qin army and rushed straight to Gaoyang.
