Chapter 38 Fight Back

The soft spring mud was soaked in blood, and the grass turned red. Countless corpses fell in the huge pit, some of which were dismembered and broken, and their internal organs were exposed outside the body. To the north of the huge pit, the corpses were even denser. They fell in love with each other, unable to see their faces, only yellow leather armor, leather helmets, and broken spears on the bodies.

The Qin army was defeated and the Chu army won. This battle would change the fate of the whole world. However, the battle was not over yet, and the Qin army was not completely disintegrated after the collapse of the formation. The twelve divisions of the Chu army had a total of 600 lines and 200 lines of Qin army. The Qin army that was not attacked by the barbarian spear still maintained some formations. They quickly walked away and the Chu army followed.

The infantry's pursuit was not as small as the cavalry, especially the Chu army. The Chu army had only 50,000 people, while the Qin army was not only 100,000. There were 16 and 70,000 defeated soldiers after the front bombing. The defeated soldiers in the middle rushed to the rear formation, while the defeated soldiers on both sides bypassed the rear formation. The rear formation was broken by the Chu army's spear. Even if the six hundred Qin soldiers facing the Chu army were all killed, there were only 30,000.

The Qin army had at least 150,000 people, perhaps more. These tens of thousands of people fled north. In order to escape, all the heavy iron armor and huge armor were abandoned. The chief spear weighing more than ten pounds, the round shield weighing several pounds, and the copper coins that entered Wei land and plundered from the Wei people. All these things that hindered their escape were discarded.

In addition, they also abandoned their general Meng Tian. Meng Tian finally died of his sword. Meng Gong and a few followers knelt beside his body and cried. It was not until the pursuing Chu soldiers approached that Meng Gong was crying and shouted: "This is General Meng Tian!"

Xiong Jing didn't care how fast the Qin army was to flee, and the pursuit was already within the plan of the shogunate counselors. Perhaps, those strong Qin soldiers could escape to Daliang and escape the Yellow River in one breath, but most of the Qin soldiers could not escape far without food, supplies, and without establishment.

Even if they fled to Changping, there were no boats there. The boats transported them to Changping either advanced to Chenying with the army, anchored on the side of the gulf, or retreated to Daliang. Just like the pursuit on the snowy night two years ago, the Chu army would continue to chase them until they were exhausted.

"Report to Da Ao, the Qin general Meng Tian is dead." The cavalry heard that Meng Tian is dead, and rushed to report.

"Meng Tian is dead?" Xiong Jing was not surprised and a little surprised. The Meng family's three generations of people joined Qin as generals, and both father and son died on the battlefield.

"Of course, his corpse is under the feather flag." What the Chu soldiers wanted was not the corpse, but the feather flag. Li Xin's feather flag was seized by the Chu army, and Meng Tian's feather flag was seized by the Chu army. Now it is probably the only one who is Wang Jian's feather flag.

"Forget it, let's get rich." Xiong Jing felt that he had won this battle easily and luckily. Once the gunpowder exploded, the Qin army was defeated. After another attack, the Qin army was defeated again. Such an easy battle made him feel like he was standing on the thin ice, which was very unreal.

"Wei." The cavalry ran out. When Xiong Jing rode his horse forward, he saw the feather flag that was being confiscated by the soldiers, and also saw Meng Tian who was placed under the feather flag. An old man was kneeling beside the body, and saw the phoenix flag waving in the wind, and turned around and bowed to him.

Li Xin died at the hands of Chu soldiers because the Chu soldiers did not treat him as a general. Meng Tian had never been young in Chu. After his defeat, he died like a general like Chu general. Chu soldiers, who had a deep-rooted concept of hierarchy, treated him as a general. Xiong Jing did not take much attention to Meng Tian. He just met the losers according to customs. Just imagine that if the gunpowder buried did not explode, the Chu army would not be so easy even if they won.

"After the heavy burial, I sent Meng Tian back to Qin with a boat." Xiong Jing turned his head and ordered his side. "And he told the King of Qin: General Meng is brave and good at fighting, and has never humiliated his entrustedness. If he cannot win this battle, it is not that he is as brave as others, but that his skills are inferior to others."

"I Jingnuo." The enemy who belittles himself is often belittles himself. The people around him do not object to Xiong Jing's arrangement. Only Peng Zong said worriedly: "If the Qin people knew that I would defeat him with gunpowder..."

"It depends on whether the hundreds of thousands of defeated soldiers can be killed." Xiong Jing smiled. The Qin cavalry was driven away shortly after the war started. Only the Qin infantry and Qin generals were led by the explosion. These people would definitely escape, and it was impossible for them to be killed and captured.

"If I have not killed all..." Peng Zong asked. He buried gunpowder in the decisive battle, and the enemy exploded and he pursued with the situation. This feeling is indeed very satisfying. Peng Zong was obviously still unsatisfied.

"This method can only be used once, and if it is used again, the Qin people will not fall into the trap." Xiong Jing sighed. He also regretted that this method can only be used once. The key is that the Chu army has too few troops. If the battlefield is like the Battle of Changping, the battlefield is a closed valley with Bai Qi's army, how can these 300,000 people be defeated? As long as the Chu army does not say it, the Qin people will never know.

"If so..." Peng Zong, Zhuang Wudi, E Cao, these Simas spoke in unison, and finally Zhuang Wudi said: "If the Qin people attacked me with 600,000 people in this battle, the Qin State will be destroyed."

"If the person who slashed his sword under the banner was Zhao Zheng, wouldn't it be better?" Xiong Jing answered angrily and gave Zhuang Wudi a blank look. He also wanted to destroy Qin State once and for all, but in fact, Chu State failed to do it.

"Reported to Da Ao, all the divisions are unwilling to stop eating." As everyone laughed, they ordered the cavalry to come from afar. Previously, Xiong Jing issued an order to eat on the spot. After the meal, the entire army took turns to pursue the defeated Qin army soldiers in the form of a marching force.

"Why don't you stop?" Xiong Jing was unhappy. Did he refuse to obey the army after winning the battle?

"He said that the Qin people ran, and if our army was eating..." Lingqi recounted the words of the divisions, but he was actually reluctant to stop the pursuit.

"Is this a joke?" Ling Qi was interrupted by Xiong Jing before he finished speaking. "Stop eating quickly, and follow the marching team to pursue him in turn. Do not make any reckless mistakes. Violators will be dealt with by military law!"

"Yes!" Lingqi immediately ran north after being ordered. Looking in the direction he left, tens of thousands of Qin troops were running in the endless fields, densely packed with large areas. Because it was too far away, it felt like it was just a group of colorful ants moving in the rain. The Chu army was chasing with all the queues.

Without the strong soldiers following, the Chu army could not accept the prisoners during the pursuit. Some Qin soldiers who could not escape were chased and stabbed to death immediately after being chased. The Chu army chased them quickly, and the Qin army ran away. In panic, even if the number of Qin troops was twice that of the Chu army, they could only escape desperately. What does defeat mean? This is defeat like a mountain.

On the battlefield, Xiong Jing watched Lingqi get farther and farther away. Twenty-five miles north of the battlefield, Gui Jing watched Lingqi get closer and closer. This was the Lingqi he sent to search Xiang Chao in the north before, but he didn't expect them to come back so soon.

"Report——!" Lingqi shouted loudly when he was still a mile or two away, "The Qin people return south! The Qin people return south..."

"What is it?" Gui Jing shook his hand, and the kettle he was holding fell to the ground. He was drinking water the moment before.

"The Qin people return south! The Qin people return south..." Lingqi was still shouting, but Qi Jizeng pointed to the north and said, "The Qin people are coming!"

The entire resurgence process was planned. The rest of the troops of the Mama dragged Xiang Chao, and Gui Jing from the left wing three or forty miles westwards must also dragged him. Only in this way can the cavalry return to the Chu army that was attacking the Qin army's rear formation without any obstacles. However, both Qin army formations were defeated, and in the fields north of the battlefield, either the Qin army defeated or the pursuing Chu army spearmen.

The ones who fled in the front were the Qin generals and generals who led their short troops. The resurgence of their cavalry was unbelievable. Unfortunately, when he led the army to fight back, Zhu Fen was not excited at all, but his heart was chilling. The situation was as he imagined. The infantry was defeated and after the army was defeated, they were now running for life. Looking around, he did not see Meng Tian's flag, and he understood that this was a complete defeat.

"General Fen..." Someone was calling him. Several cavalrymen came over, leading the way was Qiang Sheng who could ride horses, and Zhao Yong standing on the carriage farther away. They all seemed to want him to stop.

"How can it be, how can it be..." Huo was incoherent and his teeth were shaking. He seemed not to see Qiang Sheng running towards him, his legs clamped his horse's belly and swept past him. Following him, following his military flag, the rest of the cavalry also swept by, and no one stopped.

"Why is this? Why is this?" Zhao Yong tilted his head and picked up eight horses in the carriage. Hunten rushed over, and some of the soldiers were knocked down by them, which made Zhao Yong very unhappy.

"General Fen wants to return to attack the Jing people." Qiang Sheng was galloping past the cavalry and splashed with mud. Later, he and Zhao Yong fled in front under the escort of short soldiers, and tens of thousands of defeated soldiers were behind them.

"Return to attack the Jing people?" The defeat made Zhao Yong aged ten years in an instant. He smiled and said, "Our army has been defeated, what's the use of returning to attack the Jing people at this time?"

"If you don't want to fight back if you don't have any use?" Qiang Xu bowed to Zhao Yong, "Please ask General Zhao to return to the sea of ​​sand to tell the king, Qiang Xu thanked the king for his kindness." Qiang Xu bowed and took the horse away. He was not going north, but chasing the fierce cavalry to the south.

After rushing past the short soldiers in front, they ran for several miles and were covered with black and broken soldiers. These frightened birds saw the rushing cavalry and thought it was Chu cavalry, so they were so scared that they hurriedly avoided them. When they got closer and closer, they found that it was Qin cavalry, and immediately cheered. With the cavalry guarded each other, they could get rid of the pursuit of the Chu army and escape safely to Changping. However, with the experience of being led by generals before, they had not yet approached these fugitive soldiers, and shouted: "Shut the flag! Kill-!"

"The general has a destiny: Yanqi! Kill-!" The mission of the Mercedes-Benz Central Army was not clearly conveyed, but the cavalry behind the main general Yanqi followed Yanqi. This was what was explained before the war. For this reason, the cavalrymen even deliberately wore the red clothes of the Chu army, but they did not have the huge armor of the Chu army.
