Under the suppressive cover of endless bows and arrows, tens of thousands of Wei soldiers came out from Mount Mu, rushed into the center of the Chu army, and cut off the army. [Read]

Facing the sudden war, the Chu soldiers seemed dumbfounded.
You must know that they were completely unprepared, because their generals revealed to them that after bypassing Mushan, their more than 60,000 troops would be divided into three armies and stationed in Linying, Zhaoling, and Xiping.
This means that this year's war has ended, and it means that after months of hard work, they finally have the time to rest and repair.
No one thought that the Wei soldiers, who did not take the opportunity to attack at night even if they saw the Chu camp on fire or even civil strife last night, would actually ambush near Mushan early, on the only way for the Chu soldiers to withdraw, waiting.
The latter threw themselves into a trap.
Gao... Gao Ming!
In the chaotic military situation, Qu Cheng stared dumbly at the tens of thousands of Wei soldiers pouring out of the mountains and forests. It must be said that he was also a little stunned.
At this moment, Qu Cheng finally realized Zhao Hongrun's true purpose of letting him take the opportunity to burn the Chu army's camp.
That was not to cause chaos in the Chu army so that the Wei soldiers could take the opportunity to attack at night. The real purpose of burning down the Chu camp was to break off Xiong Tuo, the king of Yangcheng, from continuing the stalemate with the Wei soldiers near the Yan River, and let him
The idea of quitting emerged.
After all, it is already early November, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Once the Chu camp is burned down, it is impossible for Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, to spend more than ten days rebuilding the camp. Moreover, the military tents and other supplies will also be lost.
Not enough to rebuild a military camp.
Therefore, once the Chu camp was burned, Xiong Tuo, the king of Yangcheng, had no choice but to give up and honestly withdraw his troops and station them in various cities.
Once the king of Yangcheng, Xiong Tuo, chooses to retreat, he will definitely pass through Mu Mountain, where Wei soldiers set up an ambush. It is far safer than taking advantage of the internal strife and fire in the Chu camp to sneak attack the Chu camp.
As for whether the Chu camp was burned actively or passively, thinking about it now, it actually doesn't matter.
The Chu army... is over. Yikanshu?·1?k?aWatchn?s?h?uWatch·??
Looking at the bewildered Chu soldiers around him, Qu Cheng secretly said in his heart.
He couldn't help feeling a little emotional. Because when everyone's attention was focused on the chaos deliberately created by the Chu army yesterday, even Qu Cheng once mistakenly thought that the Wei soldiers came to attack last night, but the fact is that the Wei army, or
It was said to be His Royal Highness Prince Su of the Wei State. He thought one step further than everyone else.
He did not choose to lead the Wei troops to attack the Chu army last night when the Chu camp was on fire. Instead, he chose to set up an ambush at Mu Mountain, the only route the Chu army would pass through when retreating, and waited for those who had spent the night in vain.
of Chu soldiers.
On the one hand, there are Wei soldiers who are waiting for work with ease and seriousness, and on the other hand, there are Chu soldiers who have spent the whole night in vain and are not only tired but also have no fighting spirit. Even if the latter's force is twice that of the former, so what?
Just as Qu Cheng expected, facing the Wei army that was coming down from all over the mountains and fields, the Chu soldiers at this time were not even as good as the soldiers under the command of Pingyu Lord Xiong Hu, because at first, people like Chu general Wu Gan and others had built a line of defense.
, to resist the momentum of the Wei army, but now, this Chu army has almost no resistance.
Thinking about it, this Chu army had been struggling for most of the night last night and was already exhausted. How could they cope with the high-intensity fighting?
It is precisely for this reason that Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, ordered his soldiers to withdraw westward quickly before daybreak, in order to prevent the Wei army from fighting out of Yanshui Camp at this time.
Unexpectedly, the Wei army did not break out from the Yanshui camp. Instead, they ambush here in Mushan early.
"Those who surrender will not be killed..."
While charging and fighting, the Wei soldiers shouted that slogan again.
Hearing the familiar voice urging surrender, the former soldiers of Xiong Hu, who had surrendered to the Wei army before, dropped their weapons one after another and knelt down to surrender.
Perhaps in their view, King Su of Wei was a Wei army commander who kept his promise. He had promised to release them within six days, and as expected, all 30,000 of them were released on the evening of the sixth day.
Since the Wei army did not kill them at the beginning, they will not kill them this time. A reading?·1k?a?nshu·
Holding on to this glimmer of hope, many former soldiers of the Xiong Hu Army shouted that I was a soldier of the Xiong Hu Army, that I had participated in the construction of the Yanshui Camp, or that I was a prisoner of your Wei Army. They held their heads and knelt down on the ground.
Unlike the Wei soldiers in Dangshan camp, the Wei soldiers in Junshui camp and Yanling camp did not even look at the Chu soldiers who dropped their weapons and knelt down to surrender, and instead went to kill those Chu soldiers who were still resisting. As for later, not only the original Chu soldiers of Xiong Hu's army surrendered one after another, but also the Chu soldiers of Xiong Tuo's army pretended to be Chu soldiers of Xiong Hu's army in order to survive. They also shouted the same words and knelt down to surrender.
The scene was like wheat blown down by the autumn wind. Whenever the Wei soldiers passed by, the surrounding Chu soldiers looked down at the wind, so that there was no suspense in this battle.
This scene was imprinted in the eyes of generals such as Zai Fugen and Lian Bi, but it made these generals of Chu State extremely angry.
They did not expect that the former soldier Xiong Hu, who had surrendered to the Wei army once, would be so vulnerable to the Wei army. In order to survive, he even surrendered to the Wei army for the second time without any resistance.
What makes them even more angry is that even the soldiers under their command have begun to imitate the former Xiong Hu soldiers in order to survive. This is simply embarrassing!
"Don't panic! Don't panic!...The Wei army is far inferior to our army in strength, but our army has not been defeated yet!"
"Counterattack! Counterattack!... Anyone who dares to surrender to the Wei army will be killed immediately!"
Zaifu Gen and Lian Bi quickly scolded the Chu soldiers around them, either encouraging or threatening them, hoping to revive the fighting spirit of their Chu soldiers.
Under their encouragement and threats, some of the Chu soldiers finally regained their fighting spirit and tried to form a defensive line to block the Wei soldiers. Unfortunately, they were extremely exhausted from last night's events and were simply unable to stand up to the Wei soldiers. With one blow, the Wei soldiers easily broke through the defense line.
This made the Wei soldiers feel a little surprised: Today's Chu soldiers are really weak for some reason, and their weakness is not worth mentioning.
"It's over..."
Looking at the overwhelming defeat, Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, felt his eyes go dark.
He simply couldn't accept what he saw with his own eyes.
At this time, Zaifu Gen and Lian Bi quickly rode their horses to Xiong Tuo, the Lord of Yangcheng. The former said urgently: "Young Master retreats, I will stay behind with Lian Bi." After that, he did not wait for Lord Yangcheng. How did Xiong Tuo react? He shouted angrily at the guards beside him: "Why don't you escort the young master to evacuate?!"
After hearing this, dozens of guards around Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo woke up from a dream, and quickly protected Xiong Tuo and evacuated south.
Watching Yangcheng Lord Xiong Tuo quickly evacuate from the battlefield under the protection of his guards, the worried look in the eyes of Zaifu Gen and Lian Bi retreated slightly. They looked at each other, then dispersed and rode their horses to arrive. Our own military is in a strong position.
After thinking about it, they did not expect to be able to reverse the defeat and defeat the Wei army, but at the very least, they had to buy enough time than Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng, who was withdrawing from the battlefield at the moment.
"How can our great Chu soldiers and generals bow their heads to a small country like Wei!"
After shouting a few beautiful words, Zaifugen led his guards and took the lead in launching a counterattack against the Wei army.
He hoped that by taking the lead, he could inspire the Chu soldiers under his command who had no intention of fighting.
It has to be said that Zaifu is worthy of being a general under Xiong Tuo, Lord of Yangcheng. In addition to being good at leading troops, he is also very skilled in martial arts. He killed several Wei soldiers in an instant, causing the Chu soldiers around him who were still resisting to A quick breath of air.
At this scene, Bailiba, the general of Junshui Camp who was watching from a distance, his eyes lit up, he laughed and rushed over, patting his horse: "Haha, General Chu, don't bully my soldiers, let me fight with you. .”
Come to think of it, Bailiba, the general of the Junshui camp, has been doing nothing these days, and he has been working hard. Now he finally saw a Chu army general with superb martial arts. He was so martial that he immediately abandoned his guards and was alone. Come and kill.
"Qiang!"
The long iron in Bailiba's hand struck fiercely with the long-handled sword in Zaifu Gen's hand, and sparks flew everywhere, followed by a loud bang.
But the result of this round of hard work was that Zaifu Gen and his horse took two steps back, while Bailiba just swayed and quickly counterattacked.
Okay, so fast...
Zaifu suddenly turned his head as he thought. In an instant, the sharp point in Bailiba's hand almost grazed the former's neck, leaving a diagonal blood mark under his cheek.
"Good hiding place!"
Bailiba was overjoyed to see his hunting heart, and his tiger eyes shone with brilliance. His hands shook, and he used his skill to swing his front end, hitting Zaifu Gen's face hard.
Just after hearing a snap, a stick-sized blood mark immediately appeared near Zaifu Gen's right eye, and his forehead was bleeding from the sharp impact.
Zaifugen couldn't help but scream in pain and subconsciously narrowed his right eye.
But at this moment, Bailiba suddenly clamped his legs on the horse's belly, causing the front hooves of the horse under his crotch to fly into the air, and kicked the chest of the horse under Zaifu Gen's crotch hard with both hoofs. He heard a scream from the war horse. , the war horse under Zai Fu’s crotch staggered back a few steps.
At this time, Bailiba's legs pinched the horse's belly again, causing one of the horse's front hooves to fall to the ground, and he rushed forward a few steps.
At the same time, Baili Ba Shi held it with one hand in his left hand and quickly pulled out the sword from his waist with his right hand. While the horse under Zaifu Gen's crotch had not yet stood firm, Baili Bashi swung the sword with his arm and slashed at Zaifu Gen. of the neck.
Immediately, a piece of flesh was cut off from Zaifu's neck, and blood spurted out like a fountain all over the place.
"Good...riding...skill..."
I saw Zaifu Gen's eyes widening as he struggled to praise Bailiba's superb riding skills. Then he fell off his horse with a thud and died immediately.
Looking at Zaifu Gen's body lying on the ground, Bailiba shook off the blood on the blade of the sharp sword in his hand with some hesitation.
He didn't feel much excitement. After all, the Chu general's riding skills were far inferior to the Korean generals he had encountered while fighting in Hebei.
The cavalry skills Bailiba used just now to fight against the enemy were also imitated by the Koreans he met back then.
A quick and sharp killing move. (To be continued.)
