Chapter 58 Withdrawal

On the battlefield, the Qin army continued to shrink its defense line. Zhao Kuo seized the opportunity and immediately sent out cavalry to attack.

"Shoot!" Jia Yan shouted, and at the same time he drew his bow and shot an arrow at the Qin army.

The cavalry kept raising their arms, throwing, raising their arms, throwing, and wave after wave of arrow rain continued to pour down towards the place where the Qin army was densest.

“Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!”

Due to the blessing of the battle formation, a large wave of arrows only caused a very small amount of damage, but Jia Yan did not give up and continued to lead the cavalry to circle around the Qin army.

More than 10,000 Zhao army cavalry surrounded the Qin army like an arc on the outside.

The Qin army's cavalry had been completely slaughtered by Yan Ju, and the short-legged infantry and chariots could not catch up with them. They could only watch the Zhao army's cavalry wandering around.

Bai Qi kept mobilizing his formation, trying to surround Jia Yan, and the Qin army kept alternating, like a huge roulette slowly turning.

"Want to catch me?"

Jia Yan turned around, led the cavalry away, then circled around and rushed in the other direction of the Qin army.

After being destroyed once by the Bai Qi group, Jia Yan was extremely wary of Bai Qi in his heart, and could even be said to be afraid.

As long as the Qin army had the slightest disturbance, Jia Yan would immediately turn around without any hesitation. Even if there was a group of Qin soldiers without armor in front of him, just a wave of arrows could cause a large number of casualties.

If they were equipped with saddles and stirrups, Zhao Jun's cavalry would not be able to complete such difficult movements and would most likely fall off their horses when turning.

Now, the Qin army can only eat dust behind them.

"Hahaha, brothers, these Qin troops can't touch us at all." Jia Yan said loudly, and the soldiers shouted.

Hearing the roar of laughter coming from the Zhao army, the morale of the Qin army suddenly began to plummet.

"The Zhao cavalry is really too cunning." Wang Hao cursed, wondering when they had ever been so angry on the battlefield before.

Bai Qi was silent, Zhao Jun's cavalry had a great impact on the battlefield, especially the cavalry equipped with saddles and stirrups, relying on their flexibility, they had completely crushed the chariots.

Bai Qi could even predict that one day, chariots would be completely replaced by cavalry.

In fact, the history of the development of cavalry in the Qin State far exceeds that of the Zhao State. The Qin State established its cavalry as early as the period of Qin Mugong.

However, because the selection of riders is too strict, it will take several more years of training to achieve initial results. Their effectiveness on the battlefield is far less than that of chariots and infantry, and they can only be used as messengers and scouts.

It is difficult, high investment, small in effect, and low in cost performance. This is the previous cavalry, so countries can only train some to transmit intelligence.

It was not until King Wuling of Zhao, who was in Hufu riding and shooting, that the cavalry gradually appeared on the battlefield in an organized manner.

The King of Qin was keenly aware of the role of cavalry on the battlefield, and immediately ordered the whole country to start training cavalry, learning Zhao's Hufu riding and shooting, and opened two large horse farms in Longxi, and continued to send spies to Zhao to learn cavalry training skills.

Even so, there is still a big gap between Qin's cavalry and Zhao's.

This is also the only place where Zhao State surpasses Qin State.

"Why didn't Zhao Jun send Zhao Feiqi?"

If the Zhao army had sent Zhao Feiqi just now, the Qin army would have suffered heavy casualties. Bai Qi didn't believe that Zhao Kuo couldn't see it. Even if Zhao Kuo couldn't see it, Le Yi, Tian Dan, and Lian Po could also see it.

Bai Qi suddenly felt uneasy. After fighting for so many years, he felt for the second time that the enemy army was not under his control.

But thinking about his arrangement, Bai Qi felt at ease again.

As long as Zhao Jun's retreat is cut off, even if Zhao Jun wins on the battlefield, it will be of no avail.

The Qin army will definitely win this battle!

"Where are the Qin Army's iron eagle warriors and black armored soldiers?" Zhao Kuo asked. He always felt that Bai Qi's use of troops was somewhat unclear to him.

It was better at the beginning. Although the Qin army suppressed the Zhao army, Zhao Kuo could still see Bai Qi's intentions, although he couldn't defeat him at all.

Now I can't understand it more and more. Slowly, the Qin army and the Zhao army became evenly matched.

This is definitely not a level that comes from nothing.

Zhao Kuo looked to the side, and Le Yi also frowned. The Qin army was in a good situation just now. As long as they sent out the Iron Eagle Warriors and the Black Armored Army to surprise the Zhao army, it would inevitably cause a large number of casualties to the Zhao army. He planned to remind Zhao Kuo to retreat.

As a result, the Qin army shrank its formation!

It’s as if both sides are playing match-fixing!

Le Yi suddenly raised his eyes, his eyes filled with disbelief, and he thought of some possibility.

"The army pressed forward and forced out the Qin army's iron eagle warriors and black armored soldiers."

Le Yi clenched his fists. If the Iron Eagle Warriors and the Black Armored Army still didn't show up, then...

"Don't worry about the Zhao army's cavalry. Concentrate your forces to attack the Zhao army's central army. The Zhao army's cavalry will definitely turn around to support you." At the same time, Bai Qi ordered.

"Crash!"

The dark Qin army collided with the armored, unarmored, and half-armored Zhao army.

"boom!"

A huge roar sounded, and the world became dark, as if it was the end of the world.

The war cloud suddenly began to roll, sweeping towards the enemy like an overwhelming river.

Huge mountains and crescent moons intertwined with each other, and a gray war cloud clung to the mountains, constantly eroding the Qin army's immovable mountain formation. Even so, the Qin army still did not take a step back.

Bai Qi fights one against two, never falling behind.

"Report! Commander, Bailishi has been attacked." At this time, a soldier rushed over from behind in panic.

"What!" Zhao Kuo swayed and asked: "How many people are there in the Qin army? How long has it been since this time? What was the situation when you left?"

"The Qin army has 30,000 men, and the Iron Eagle warriors are also there. It has been an hour and a half, and our army is still holding on." The soldier said quickly.

He rushed to Changping first, and then rushed here immediately. He was delayed a lot of time, otherwise he would not have been able to travel so long.

"Are there only Iron Eagle warriors? What about the Black Armored Army?" Le Yi asked.

"Report! Commander, the eldest son and Bailishi have been lost!" At this moment, another cavalryman rushed over from behind.

"boom!"

The Crescent Moon Formation above Zhao Jun collapsed instantly, turning into streaks of light like meteors streaking across the sky.

"Good opportunity!" Bai Qi's eyes lit up. Although he didn't know what happened to Zhao Jun, this was definitely an opportunity to defeat Zhao Jun. Even if it was a trap, he would step on it.

Bai Qi was about to give the order when suddenly, a cavalry covered in blood appeared in front of Bai Qi.

"Commander, Yewang City, Dakou Pass has been lost."

"What! South Korea and Wei have sent troops?" Bai Qi said in disbelief.

"It's Zhao Jun...Zhao Feiqi."

"Did Zhao Feiqi fly over?" Bai Qi smashed the chariot's railings with his palm and said angrily.

He has never been so out of character. The road south from Changping is all in the hands of the Qin army. How could Zhao Feiqi appear in Yewang!

The Qin soldiers below were trembling and did not dare to look up at Bai Qi.

"I understand, you go down first." Bai Qi waved his hand: "Send the order to withdraw the troops."

"Send the order and withdraw the troops immediately." Zhao Kuo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and ordered.
