Chapter 1029: Death is also Standing Death
One arrow after another aimed at the cavalry of the Qin army under the hillside, but the more than 1,000 Qin soldiers who were the advance team did not know that they were walking towards the ambush circle laid by the Qingzhou army step by step.
The partial generals who led the more than 1,000 Qin troops restrained their horses, raised their arms, and stopped the march of the team when they were about to enter the ambush circle of the Qingzhou army.
The moment he raised his arm, more than 1,000 cavalrymen all stopped, and their eyes looked at the hills on both sides.
The hill is very quiet, and there is not even the slightest sound of silence, and even the chirping of birds is not heard at all.
Looking at the hills on both sides, the face of the general of the Qin army was solemn, and he shouted to the more than 1,000 cavalry of the Qin army behind him: "Be alert, the Qingzhou army may be nearby!" ”
All the Qin troops responded, took the round shield from their backs and held it in their hands.
But on the hills on both sides, there may be Qingzhou troops, holding round shields, and they don't know which side to defend.
Although he felt uneasy in his heart, he took on the responsibility of finding the way, and the general did not dare to turn around and go back, so he had to order the team to continue to move forward.
Moving forward again, the speed of the Qin army's march was much slower than before, and everyone watched vigilantly at the hills on both sides.
Standing on the hill, looking at the Qin army that was gradually entering the ambush circle, Xun You stroked the beard on his chin, nodded and said: "The Qin army is really well-trained, and before it enters the ambush ground, it is already prepared!" ”
"With such a large army, our army really does not have much advantage!" Also looking at the cavalry of the Qin army that was slowly marching under the mountain, Sun Guan took Xun You's words.
Neither of them continued to speak, looking at the cavalry of the Qin army under the mountain, their eyes flashing with a complicated look.
When Xun You looked at the Qin army's cavalry, his eyes showed appreciation and admiration, while Sun looked at the Qin army, his eyes flashed with heavy jealousy.
There is no general who does not want his soldiers to be as strong as the Qin army, if Sun Guan is given an army like the Qin army, he is absolutely confident that he will retreat the attack launched by Lu Bu at Xuanyuan Pass that day.
Seeing that the Qin army had entered the ambush circle, the archers of the Qingzhou Army on the hillside did not launch their arrows, they all stared at the Qin army under the mountain one by one, and some of them were even nervous and even their hands were trembling slightly.
The partial general who led this group of cavalry of the Qin army, the more he walked forward, the more uneasy he felt in his heart, but with the task of exploring the road, he had to lead the army forward.
All he could do was watch around vigilantly, beware of the Qingzhou Army suddenly coming out from the side.
The cavalry of the Qin army gradually entered the depth of the ambush circle of the Qingzhou army, and the archers of the Qingzhou army on the hillside raised their longbows one by one, pulled the bowstring full, and aimed at the Qin army under the mountain.
Looking at the hills on both sides, the general of the Qin army suddenly shouted behind him: "Get through from here as soon as possible!" ”
As he shouted, he clamped his legs on the horse's belly and rode his horse forward.
The more than 1,000 Qin soldiers who followed behind him, hearing his shout, did not delay for a moment, and hurriedly galloped forward with their legs between the horse's belly.
The Qin army suddenly increased its speed, which caught the Qingzhou army on the hillside a little unprepared, and a Qingzhou army archer panicked, and his hand full of bowstrings was released.
An arrow caught in the strong wind flew towards the Qin army below the hillside.
The arrow did not hit the Qin army, but flew between several Qin troops.
Seeing a feathered arrow flying in front of them, those Qin soldiers hurriedly shouted, "There are enemy troops on the hillside!" ”
This arrow that flew out inadvertently undoubtedly told the Qin army the enemy's position, and the partial general who rushed to the front turned his war horse, pointed at the hillside where the Qingzhou army was dormant with a spear, and shouted loudly: "Rush to the enemy!" ”
Just when the cavalry of the Qin army was spinning around their horses, the archers of the Qingzhou Army on the hillside also loosened their bowstrings one after another with the order of the officer.
There were bursts of bowstrings, and countless feathered arrows flew towards the Qin army.
The cavalry of the Qin army, which had not completely turned around, was suddenly shot over by the feather arrows.
Under the hood of countless feathered arrows, although the Qin army had already made a defense, the war horses under their crotches could not be covered with shields.
Patches of war horses neighed, and one by one the horses were shot into huge hedgehogs by feathered arrows and fell into the dust.
Many soldiers of the Qin army, when they fell from their horses, still held shields to cover their bodies.
Most of them kept their balance, shielding themselves with the help of shields, and a few of them did not stand still when they fell from their horses, and fell to the ground, being shot with arrows all over their bodies.
Due to the too much grass and trees on the hillside, the Qingzhou army could not list the bow and arrow array, and the archers stood scattered on the hill, firing arrows freely at the Qin army.
The number of archers in the Qingzhou Army was far more than a thousand, and although they did not form a large array, the arrows they could shoot were endless, but they almost obscured half of the sky.
A few rounds of arrows were fired, and there were very few Qin troops whose horses were not hit, most of the Qin troops had fallen off their horses, and more than a thousand people were shot and killed in just an instant.
A feathered arrow was stuck in the shoulder, and blood oozed from the shaft of the arrow that had sunk into his shoulder.
The war horse under his crotch had been shot by the Qingzhou army, and when he fell off the horse, he picked up the shield from the corpse of a Qin soldier, covered his body with the shield, and galloped towards the Qingzhou army on the hillside.
The soldiers of the Qin army who followed behind the partial general, braved the arrows fired by the Qingzhou army, and every few steps they rushed out, one or two Qin soldiers would fall under the arrows of the enemy army.
The distance between the two sides is constantly narrowing, and the arrows shot by the Qingzhou army are getting stronger and stronger, and the fallen Qin army is much more than before.
The injured arm on the shoulder was holding a spear, and the other was holding a shield, and had already rushed to the distance where the archers of the Qingzhou Army could be seen.
The cavalry of the Qin army behind him no longer had any war horses, and on the way they charged, they were full of war horses and corpses of Qin soldiers who had been shot by arrows.
The charging Qin army didn't seem to notice these at all, and when they killed the Qingzhou army, each of them had a hideous expression.
Under the shooting of the Qingzhou army, the number of Qin troops charging was getting smaller and smaller, and in the end, there were only more than 100 people left.
Seeing that the Qin army was about to rush to the front, the archers of the Qingzhou Army were also in a hurry, and many people were even ready to turn around and escape.
"Infantry, charge!" Sun Guan, who was standing on the hill, saw that the only remaining Qin army was about to rush to the archers, and knew that if they were allowed to succeed, the archers would definitely suffer great casualties, so he hurriedly gave the order for the infantry to rush and kill.
Sun Guan gave an order, and the infantry of the Qingzhou Army, who had been prepared for a long time, let out a shout in unison, and rushed towards the Qin army that was rushing up the hillside.
The partial general, who led more than 100 Qin troops to charge, when they collided with the enemy, due to the sharp pain from the wound on his shoulder, the spear flew out of his hand.
At the moment when the spear fell, a Qingzhou soldier carried a short spear and stabbed him fiercely.
Seeing that the short spear was about to pierce the general of the Qin army, the general picked up his shield and slammed it towards the temple of the Cao army.
The temple was smashed, and before Cao Jun's short spear could reach the Qin army's partial general, he fell to the ground.
The Qingzhou army, which was hundreds of times larger than the Qin army, rushed up, and the people in front were still fighting with the Qin army, while the people behind let out a shout and pushed their companions in front of them hard.
The powerful squeezing force compressed the Qin army in one place, and one by one the Qin army fell, and under their feet, the corpses of the Qingzhou army lying were by no means less than the number of people they died in battle.
The disparity in numbers made the process of ending the battle much faster, and the Qingzhou Army's heavy infantry launched a charge only a moment of tea, and the battle had come to an end.
The shouting of killing stopped, and the hillside returned to silence.
Countless Qingzhou troops stood on the hillside, but their eyes were fixed on the two people standing among them.
One of the two people standing in the crowd was already in tattered clothes, covered in blood, and even on his cheeks, there were wounds one after another.
The wounds on his cheeks were deep in the bones, but there was no longer blood.
He stood in the crowd, holding the neck of a Qingzhou soldier with one hand.
The Qingzhou Army, who was pinched by his neck, had bruised eyes on his face, his eyes protruding and his tongue sticking out slightly, and he had been dead for a while.
It was none other than the one who was pinching the neck of the Qingzhou army, it was the partial general who led the cavalry of the Qin army.
On his bloodstained face, his expression was solemn, his eyes were looking straight ahead, but there was no trace of brilliance in his eyes.
He was dead, dead under the short spears of countless Cao Jun.
At the moment of death, he also tightly choked the neck of a Qingzhou army and pulled a back-mounted enemy.
The Qingzhou army on the hillside looked at him, closer, and when they looked at him, their eyes showed unconcealable fear.
The smell of blood lingered on the hillside, and the breath of death lingered in the hearts of every living Qingzhou soldier.
No one stepped forward to push down the Qin army's partial general, and all the Qingzhou troops around him inevitably felt a burst of panic in their hearts when they looked at him who was already dead.
On the hillside, Sun Guan and Xun Yu stood side by side.
Looking at the corpses of the Qin army generals who were surrounded by the Qingzhou Legion, their faces were also solemn.
Surrounded by enemies, they can still fight so bravely, what power can such an army have to stop their advance?
A harsh mountain wind blew across the hill, and every Qingzhou army that blew felt a chill all over their bodies.
The mountain wind swept past the general of the Qin army who was standing frozen in the killing field, and the general's body shook slightly, and finally fell straight to the side.
