Chapter Ninety-Eight: Dispatch of Troops

"Oops! Our army is pinned! Xiang Yu's nervous hands were about to dig into the meat, and his mouth was long enough to fit a chicken. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Xiang Yan's brows twisted into a pimple, he didn't expect that the Qin army could still have such combat power under the siege of the superior Chu army. Looking at the Tushan bag in the distance, Xiang Yan narrowed his eyes. The banner of the king of Great Qin was hunting and fluttering in the blazing sun, and a young man stood like a javelin under the banner of the king. No wonder the Qin army was so brave, it turned out that the king of Qin personally supervised the battle.

Look at Hu Hai who is standing on a high platform like a nail, and then think of the aristocratic young man of Chu who knows all day long that he is a prostitute for drinking. Xiang Yan sighed heavily, maybe Chu Guo was really exhausted. I didn't expect that King Qin would personally take the risk and personally lead the Qin army deep behind enemy lines. Is this battle really going to be lost?

"Xiang Liang! You press up with my guards, and the crossbowmen follow up with the assist. The left and right wings are enclosed around the dirt mountain. The Lord of Great Qin is there, as long as we cut off that royal flag, we will win. "As a veteran on the battlefield, Xiang Yan has a lot of experience in commanding. He could see at a glance that that Tushan Bao was the eye of the Qin army. It's a pity that God doesn't bless Da Chu, and he doesn't even have a dirt mountain bag on his side. He could only stand in the carriage and direct the battle.

"No!" Xiang Yan bowed her head and promised, raised her head and glanced at her father, and left without looking back. Everyone knows what this battle is about, Xiang Yan pressed his own guards, which proves that he really wants to work hard. Although he is the heir of the next generation of the Xiang family, he has no eyes on the battlefield. God knows if I'll be able to come back.

"Grandfather ......!" Xiang Yu's eyes were red, and he really wanted to follow his uncle. But without Xiang Yan's order, he couldn't go anywhere.

"You're not allowed to go! It's okay if my Xiang family doesn't have a son, but it can't be without a grandson. The bloodline of the family still depends on you to pass it on, Yu'er! Anyone can die in this battle, but you can't. If it really ...... You get on the fastest horse and go! Sometimes it's harder to live than to die. Xiang Yan had an ominous premonition, after the battle just now. The pre-war optimism had vanished, and he had thought of crushing the Qin army with numerical superiority. Now it seems that it is not as easy as expected.

Both sides were mobilizing troops, and Xiang Liang drove into the battlefield with Xiang Yan's guards. This guard is the essence of the Xiang family, and the three thousand strong soldiers are all the survivors of a hundred battles on the battlefield. There are no more than a dozen war wounds on his body, and he is embarrassed to say hello to others. And they are also the best rhinoceros Chongkai in Chu State. Holding a heavy mace, it can be said that he is dying and dying. Because of its excellent combat power, this guard will win every battle, and the Chu army called it the "Immortal Army".

Xiang Liang took this immortal army and plunged into the right flank of the Chu army. At this time, Chu Dayong and the hoplite division had just driven to the rear of the Qin army.

Qi Guoyuan and Ao Canghai quietly left the Qin army's main town with elite archers. began to bypass the flank of the Chu army and march towards the flank and rear of the Chu army.

In the position of the Chinese army, Zhang Han was leading the takin cavalry into the starting position. Perhaps they were the most calm, because the Chinese armies on both sides did not engage at all. The Chinese army of the Chu army had no choice but to retreat as a last resort to resist the bombs thrown by the war elephants. Miao Long drove the last two hundred rhinos to the front of the formation, and in a moment they would be the first to charge.

Whether it was the Qin army or the Chu army, the front was already crowded into a lump. Reinforcements from both sides could not reach the battlefield smoothly, and it was simply impossible to get them to withdraw now. The two sides are fighting in one place, and turning around means death.

Now the advantage of the battlefield is still on the side of the Chu army. After all, they had a numerical advantage, even if the casualties were a little more than the Qin army. But after the Qin army was exhausted, the advantages of the Chu army were revealed. The Chu army began a ferocious counterattack, and for a while, the Qin troops in the front row, who were physically exhausted, fell to the ground one after another.

Xiang Liang quickly grasped the fighter and immediately ordered: "Archer throw!" ”

Although the bows and crossbows of the Chu people were not as strong as those of the Qin army, the Chu people were the first to invent heavy arrows. The so-called heavy arrow means that the arrow is long and heavy. The thing was fired at an angle of forty-five degrees into the sky, and then fell rapidly with the heavy inertia of the arrowhead. At this time when the two armies were scorched, the power of the heavy arrow was undoubtedly revealed. Although because of the front of its own robes, it is not possible to hit the enemy's front army.

But it is possible to carry out covering, indiscriminate shooting to hit the rear of the enemy army! The Qin army in the front row often died because they could not get the strong support of the rear army.

With Xiang Liang's order, the crossbowmen of the Chu army immediately raised the crossbow. Tilted up forty-five degrees, firing wildly into the sky. The sound of the crossbow strings sounding like the wind was blowing. The sun in the sky was darkened by the dense array of arrows, and then the rain of arrows fell down like drops.

The Qin army was originally lightly armed and thinly armed, and most of the blades in his hands were long halberds, which could not play a role in covering at all. A rain of arrows fell, and the Qin army suddenly fell a large number of people. Some of them had several arrows stuck in their bodies, and they fell to the ground, wailing and rolling wildly. The sound was so fierce that the robes were shocked.

"Let's go!" When Chu Dayong saw the tragic situation of the Qin army, he immediately gave an order. They were dressed in the armor of Pingliang's latest technology, and they had shields in their hands. The Qin army was afraid of this kind of projectile, and they were not afraid at all. This kind of heavy arrow, hitting them is like tickling them.

Four hoplite divisions immediately filled the space left by the retreat of the Qin army. The sky darkened once more, and the hoplites raised their shields above their heads. Only a "clanging" sound was heard, and a rain of arrows hit the hoplites.

The arrows slammed into the armor and bounced off with a single click. The armor of the hoplites was greased, and the arrows slid off when they hit it. Even if it doesn't slip away, it will be bounced off by the hard armor. Pingliang's latest technology steel, that's not talking.

The captain of the Qin army reacted quickly, and the crossbowmen of the Qin army immediately threw them into the sky. However, their shooting effect was far less good than that of the Chu army, except that they did not have heavy arrows. The Chu army was equipped with a lightweight bamboo shield, which was also one of the reasons.

The Qin army, which had lost the support of the rear army, was soon crushed by the surging Chu army. The survivors fled to the rear one after another, and some of them didn't run fast enough, and it was a blow to be caught up by the Chu army. The spear peeked out of his chest, and the corpse was left unattended.

The Chu army, which wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, suddenly saw a team that looked like canned people. These people stood in the sunlight and sparkled, like little metal people!
