Chapter 1,707 Wang Li(2/2)
"Don't worry, I have the final say on this territory of East County!"
"What's more, the war isn't over yet."
Wang Li's words made it even more obvious that the two of them had reached a deal.
Zhong Limei couldn't quite understand what was going on. Fortunately, it was not his turn to speak, so he didn't understand.
Wang Li then patted Zhang Han on the shoulder, as if the relationship between the two was very close:
"Brother Zhang Han, would you like to come and enjoy hunting together?"
"Hunting?" Zhang Han expressed confusion - he really didn't know what was going on.
Did Wang Li find any target to attack?
Wang Li laughed and simply explained, "The unexpected surprise that my subordinates just discovered!"
"Come!"
After saying that, he walked directly outside the camp without giving Zhang and Han a chance to answer.
Zhang Han naturally would not refuse and asked Zhong Limei to follow him.
………………
In the mountains and forests, a large number of armor-piercing soldiers were gathering, and at the destination they were heading to, many soldiers had already gathered around them.
Long Qie's deputy general Cao Jiu was huddled together with dozens of Tenglong Legion soldiers, defending with all their strength.
They can't do anything except defend. Not to mention the huge difference in numbers, the opponents are still full of crossbowmen.
And because they were unexpectedly besieged, they didn't even have horses as cavalry, they were just heavy armored infantry at most.
In the mountain and forest terrain, they fought hard with the powerful crossbowmen.
Fortunately, many of them were equipped with large shields, otherwise they wouldn't even be able to defend, and they would just close their eyes and wait for death.
Even so, in the face of the continuous rain of arrows from the armor-piercing soldiers, Cao Jiu's soldiers are constantly reducing their numbers, and it is estimated that they will not last long.
The empire's ace army has the inherent characteristics of a strong army such as strict military discipline, well-equipped, well-trained, etc., but unlike the Golden Fire Cavalry and the Pingyang Heavy Armored Soldiers, the equipment of the Armor-Piercing Soldiers is particularly sophisticated!
They are equipped with the latest powerful hand crossbows carefully designed and manufactured by the Gongshu family. They have many advantages such as easy portability, continuous firing, and the accompanying arrows are light and easy to carry.
In addition, there are various other high-end powerful equipment.
Of course, the power is first-class, and the cost is also first-class, otherwise the entire empire would not be able to support such a 30,000-strong crossbow force.
When it comes to frontal annihilation battles, the armor-piercing soldiers who have fought many battles can almost always destroy the enemy quickly and with overwhelming force - if not, the situation will probably be the other way around.
Now it's up to them to destroy everything.
What's even worse is that more armor-piercing soldiers are coming.
Fortunately, at this time, Cao Jiu's reinforcements also arrived.
Long Qie, Ji Bu, and Yingbu each led a team of cavalry and inserted themselves into the formation of the armor-piercing soldiers from three directions at the same time. By taking advantage of surprise, they directly tore apart the connection between them and disrupted their relationship.
Formation.
This greatly reduced Cao Jiu's pressure, but he still couldn't escape.
When facing strong crossbowmen, you cannot directly expose your back to the opponent to escape.
I want to escape unless someone cuts me off.
But their manpower simply does not support this operation.
Long Qie and the other three also thought of this, so one of them was responsible for digging directly into the deepest part of the Hundred Battles Armor-Piercing Soldiers formation and replacing Cao Jiu.
The three of them have outstanding personal strength. As long as Cao Jiu can safely withdraw before the reinforcements of the opponent's large forces arrive, the people behind him can break out of the encirclement on their own.
The most important thing about this matter is the race against time, so... Yingbu took the initiative to take on this task.
After the operation began, he took the lead and penetrated into the center of the enemy's encirclement, and immediately found the besieged Cao Jiu.
The soldiers he led rushed out of a temporary retreat channel.
"Quickly go! I'll cut off the queen!" Yingbu got off his horse and immediately shouted to Cao Jiu.
"General Yingbu!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Cao Jiu was a little hesitant.
Cutting off the queen was the most dangerous thing, not to mention that he was facing strong crossbowmen.
But there was no time to lose, so Yingbu immediately urged, "Hurry up! Execute the order!"
"...General, take care!"
Having said this, Cao Jiu no longer hesitated and immediately followed the large troops to evacuate.
The situation on the battlefield changes rapidly. If he talks too much nonsense, both of them may have to get involved.
Yingbu waved two short swords and charged directly into the re-encircled Qin soldiers.
The crossbowman is indeed troublesome, but fortunately the terrain here is complex and mountainous, so he has room to maneuver.
With the current number of enemy troops, as long as Cao Jiu and the others wait for a moment or three to completely withdraw, he will be able to withdraw.
There is nothing wrong with their plan, but they have a plan, and so do the armor-piercing soldiers.
On the hillside not far away, Wang Li was riding a horse, observing the battlefield situation from a high position, with Zhang Han and Zhong Limei beside him.
Seeing Yingbu and others rushing into the battle to save others, Wang Li showed a satisfied smile.
Zhang Han and Zhang Han both had their own plans in mind as they watched the allies they had just made not long ago fall into danger.
Zhang Han's main consideration was whether there was any special meaning to Wang Li taking them both to see it - although Zhang Han didn't think Wang Li could know so quickly that they had reached a secret deal with Long Qie and others.
After thinking for a while, he took the initiative and said, "This is the Chu army... they are breaking out."
Wang Li smiled even more when he heard Zhang Han's reminder, without any sign of impatience, "The more fiercely the bait struggles, the more it attracts the attention of the big fish, doesn't it?"
All of this was originally a trap deliberately arranged by him.
In fact, the large force of armor-piercing soldiers had already gathered here, but they had remained hidden and pretended that reinforcements had not arrived.
Otherwise, it will scare the big fish hiding in the dark.
He didn't even know Cao Jiu, so it was almost impossible to capture or kill him.
