Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 357
Chapter 357
The five trenches outside the south gate of Xingyang City, which were two feet wide and more than one foot deep, were quickly filled with a smooth road more than a hundred feet wide by the tens of thousands of Xingyang people who swarmed out.The soldiers of the Qin army who fell unconscious or fell asleep were carried into the city one after another.

Including those cavalrymen of the Qin Army who were still insisting on their horseback, they were all lifted off their horseback one after another.

They could no longer dismount by themselves. Even with the aid of stirrups and saddles, the long-time gallop still pushed these soldiers to their limit.The insides of the two thighs and the buttocks that had been bumping on the horse's back were bloody and bloody, and the trousers on his body were soaked in blood and completely stuck together with the fuzzy flesh and blood.

Without the help of others, these cavalry soldiers of the Qin Army, who had been on horseback for two days and one night without sleep, could not dismount by themselves except for going to the toilet and even eating on horseback.

Fortunately, the battle was over, and the common people were all free, and they all stepped forward to help the soldiers of the Qin army get off their horses.

Ying Gang was extremely intoxicated by the picture of the army and the people working together.

But at this moment, deep down in his heart, he did not relax.

Xin Sheng has arrived, and the main soldiers of the Qin army have also arrived, and Xingyang is no longer in danger.

But the battle did not end there.

In the Battle of Xingyang, they had an army of [-] soldiers, but now only [-] are left, and [-] soldiers died on the battlefield.

Although no less than 20 enemy troops were beheaded back and forth, such casualties are really uncomfortable for the Qin army, which has better equipment and morale than the enemy troops.

Right now, Long Qi, Zhang Liang and others are fleeing one after another. If they are allowed to return to their camp safely, it won't be long before these gangsters will invade again.

There are too many great battles in the world, and it's time for a turning point.

If the top talents of these countries cannot be beheaded, there will be no way out for the future of Qin.

After Xin Sheng was settled, Ying Gang quickly summoned Wang Ben, Han Xin and others.

There were already many things going on in the city, and everyone was relatively busy. When they heard that Ying had just summoned him, everyone could only temporarily put down their work and go to see him.

Inside the big tent, Ying Gang directly expressed his inner thoughts.

"I want to hunt down the enemy army."

Although there are only six short words, it is no less than a heavy hammer beating their hearts.

Those present are all the titans of Qin, no matter how old they are or how many battles they have fought, there is not much difference between them in terms of experience.

The situation at this moment is in front of you.

Long Qi retreated slowly in a premeditated manner, and the burning of various materials in the camp was not considered serious, so it can be seen that his withdrawal was not too flustered.

In this case, whether it is Long Qi or Zhang Liang, they will inevitably ambush at important positions with elites to block.If they chased and killed them, they would be ambushed by the enemy if they were not careful.

"My lord, the general thinks it's inappropriate." Zhong Limei suggested.

He was originally from the state of Chu, so he had some understanding of the tactics of the Chu army.Since Long Qi chose to retreat, it is impossible not to be on guard.

"My lord, I also think it's inappropriate, at least it's a little inappropriate to chase and kill now." Wang Ben also objected.

Ying Gang immediately asked: "Then when do you think it is appropriate to hunt down? Could it be that all the enemy troops have been withdrawn to Chen County and then hunted down?"

Knowing that Ying Gang was full of anger, Wang Ben thought for a moment and said, "I know the young master is full of anger, and I am the same. But you must not act on your will when marching and fighting. I hope you think twice before acting."

Ying Gang's eyes immediately fell on the last Han Xin.

He is a "Soldier Immortal", so he will naturally have a better way.

Sensing Ying Gang's gaze, Han Xin thought for a while and said, "The general also feels that it is really inappropriate to chase and kill at this moment." As soon as he finished speaking, he said again: "But it would be a waste not to chase and kill at this moment."

"Why?" The others asked in unison.

"The retreat of the Chu army must be done with elites. We know it well, and the Chu army knows it too. Because of this, we must not fight the enemy at this moment, otherwise, we will be in the enemy's arms. But if we don't pursue and kill, our army will be under the city of Xingyang With so many casualties, how can we just let them go in vain. Therefore, the general thinks that we can wait until the enemy army enters the range of Chu State before launching an attack."

Ying Gang didn't talk nonsense, he moved directly to the sand table, looked up and down the sand table and said: "It's about [-] miles from Xingyang to Chenjun Road, they have fewer cavalry, and the speed of infantry alone must be slower. I think , we can wait for them to reach the plain, let go of our guard and attack again."

Han Xin saluted Ying Gang respectfully and said, "Your Highness."

Ying Gang didn't talk nonsense, looked at the few people in front of him and said, "In this case, I will start this battle myself."

"No!"

"Young master is the body of a thousand pieces of gold, and is an important existence of our Great Qin. How can you take the risk yourself at this time! If there are three good things and two bad things, you will not be able to explain to your majesty in the end!"

Wang Ben hurriedly dissuaded him, but unfortunately, Ying Gang seemed to have made up his mind.

"Don't persuade me, Taiwei, I have made up my mind. Besides, don't you still believe in my strength?"

As he spoke, he pulled out his peerless sword and swung it lightly, a gust of sword energy left a shallow pit on the ground.

It was only then that everyone remembered that Ying Gang was no frail scholar like Fusu.He is a master-level master, and he is also a rare top existence in the world.

Even though such a master is not very useful in fighting on the battlefield, it is not difficult to protect himself.

"Since the young master has made up his mind, I will not stop him. How many people do you plan to bring with you when you hunt down the young master?"

"It's chasing and killing. Naturally, it is impossible to use a large army, otherwise our movement will be exposed. I plan to bring the two thousand heavy cavalry."

"Heavy cavalry are not suitable for long-distance raids."

Ying just nodded: "Therefore, I plan to remove all the heavy armor on the heavy cavalry and horseback, leaving only the armor on the vital parts of the body. In this way, we can not only protect our soldiers, but also reduce the load and speed up .”

Several people nodded slightly upon hearing this.

But Wang Ben was still a little worried.

Although the Chu army and the others were defeated, there were at least tens of thousands of people left.

If two thousand heavy armored cavalry pursued and killed them, they might be able to kill not a single piece of the enemy's armor.

However, the cavalry without heavy armor faced infantry attacks, especially at such a disadvantage in terms of numbers, if they were a little careless, they might be annihilated by the enemy.

"In addition, each soldier will equip me with four pots of arrows and a machete."

The purpose of Ying Gang is very simple, that is to turn heavy cavalry into light cavalry.

And what he imitated was the iron cavalry tactics of Genghis Khan, who shocked the Eurasian continent in history. Relying on mobility and the power of arrows, he kept wandering around the enemy army and completely defeated the morale of the enemy army.

"Is...is that enough?"

"enough."
