Cultivation of empire in the world of immortality

Chapter 37: Defeat King Youxian’s Tribe

The dark night covered the Qin and Han Dynasties. After passing the Western Camp, they rushed for more than a thousand kilometers. However, they did not see the Beiyuan cavalry spies. The Qin and Han Dynasties ordered the forwards to change direction and search northeast. It was not until dawn that the Beiyuan shepherds were discovered.

After finding a place on the back slope and ordering everyone to rest, Qin Han took two tribesmen in the middle stage of the second stage to catch tongues. Under the leadership of the treasure-hunting crow, the three of Qin and Han quietly captured five Beiyuan shepherds alive.

After asking, they learned that this shepherd belonged to the Dadu tribe and supplied food and grass to the Chinese army. When he heard that he was from the Dadu tribe, Qin and Han remembered that they had killed two generals of the Dadu tribe. What a fate. After asking about the supply situation of cattle and sheep of the Chinese army, I heard that the cattle and sheep of the Chinese army had been caught once every three days in the past, but now they were caught once a day. It was inferred that the cattle and sheep of the Chinese army could support the army for five days. The Qin and Han Dynasties determined that the food and grass of King Youxian of Beiyuan was basically gone. , it is already the end of the war, the enemy's offensive will be more fierce, and time is running out.

Qin and Han asked the entire army to rest for an hour and a half. Qin Lei, the second brother in the logistics department, complained that there were too few people and they were too busy. Qin and Han could only take away the strong men around them to help. The formation of the army was too short, and there was a serious shortage of professional personnel. They could only carry more burdens on one shoulder. At this time, Qin and Han wished they could have multiple clones, but that would not work. No more skills.

With the supplement of spiritual flesh, spiritual fruit, and spiritual water, the spiritual power of the entire army was replenished quickly. Qin and Han also brought out a large amount of fairy grass to allow Tianma to quickly recover his spiritual power.

The treasure-hunting crow was warning in the air. Qin Han knew that it was the sheep collector, and immediately ordered Qin Kai, the fourth team, to lead his troops into battle. The 1st, 23rd and 3rd teams were ordered to be the vanguard and continue to search and advance to the northeast alternately. The remaining 100-man teams followed up. When they encountered the Beiyuan cavalry collecting sheep, they were immediately annihilated.

Each team that received the order went forward according to the order. The fourth team pounced at a low altitude on the fifty or so Beiyuan sheep collecting cavalry. Under the leadership of the sharpshooter Qin Kai, the second wave of arrows took away all the cavalry on the ground. Half of them went to herd the sheep and catch the horses, and the other half went to clean Zhan Yang. They were verified by the clerk Qin Ya and handed over to the logistics. After that, the fourth team immediately swept to the north.

The seven teams sweeping in a fan-shaped manner had wiped out nearly 2,000 sheep-harvesting cavalry before noon. In addition to war horses, everyone no longer captured cattle and sheep.

The Qin and Han Dynasties had a lot of achievements, but those in Beiyuan were having a hard time waiting for the cattle and sheep to be slaughtered. At noon, the cavalry did not come back from collecting the orders. The Beiyuan Central Army Camp immediately sent five thousand cavalry to respond. King Youxian ordered the eldest prince to lead Wang Ting to marry him. The guards immediately imposed martial law to prevent Qin's sneak attack.

The second team detected a large group of Beiyuan cavalry attacking and immediately reported it to Qin and Han.

The Qin and Han Dynasties ordered the 1st, 23rd and 3rd teams to lure the enemy to the north, 78, 90 and 90 teams to pursue the rear, the 4th and 5th teams to press on both sides, and the 6th and 11th teams to guard. Qin and Han led ten strong men to surprise the enemy general or flag bearer.

After receiving the order, each team seized the battle position. The second team engaged the Beiyuan cavalry. Arrows from both sides came and went. It was the Beiyuan cavalry who suffered. Occasionally, a Pegasus would be hit by an arrow and fall, and the person would be caught and carried away by the tribesmen around him. Walk. When the first and third teams arrived, the Beiyuan cavalry suffered even greater casualties. After shooting three waves of arrows, the three teams changed formations and flew low to the north.

Seeing Qin's provocative flight at low altitude, the Beiyuan cavalry general shouted, "The enemy is defeated and is fleeing. Give me chase."

The three centurions who lured the enemy north deliberately lowered their speed. This gives Beiyuan cavalry hope of catching up and satisfies Beiyuan's propaganda that they can shoot down at low altitudes and crush Qin soldiers on the ground.

The Beiyuan cavalry was still pursuing desperately. The eleven Qin and Han cavalrymen had already arrived in the sky above the Beiyuan cavalry. Eleven thousand-stone composite bows were equipped with armor-piercing arrows, aiming at the brightly armored generals. As Qin and Han's arrows were fired first, ten piercing arrows were fired. The armor arrows followed closely and rushed towards the target. In an instant, seven targets fell down, and the targets Qin and Han aimed at easily dodged. The Qin and Han motto was "shoot the general together". After saying that, he put the second-level formation armor-piercing arrow on the compound crossbow, aimed it and shouted "shoot". It took a second before the armor-piercing arrow was fired. The general of the Beiyuan cavalry saw the incoming arrows rushing towards him and hurriedly dodged his body. He dodged two or three arrows and carried four or five arrows. He couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and sighed that the armor was powerful. The next moment, he smelled of death. It made his hair tingle, and he tried to avoid it, but the armor-piercing arrow still passed through his chest, and its powerful force took him flying off his horse. Upon seeing this, the soldiers immediately leaned over to pick him up. The situation in front caused the Beiyuan cavalry formation to become chaotic and crowded.

When the four centuries who arrived from behind saw the cavalry crowded together below, they excitedly took out their hundred-stone compound bows and rained down waves of arrows. The Beiyuan cavalry suddenly suffered a disaster. It was already in chaos when the general was in trouble, but now it is even more chaotic after suffering this blow. They immediately fled in all directions, but the arrows continued to pursue them. Feeling that there was no hope of escape, the Beiyuan cavalry collapsed and chopped down everything in front of them. Upon seeing this, Qin and Han immediately ordered the entire army to attack. When the Qin and Han Dynasties "counted" the Beiyuan cavalry leaders who led the escape, the Beiyuan cavalry dismounted and surrendered.

The five thousand Beiyuan cavalry who attacked were basically wiped out. Four thousand one hundred men were killed in the battle, 803 were captured, less than a hundred escaped, and the general died. The Qin and Han Dynasties left three hundred troops to guard the prisoners and take charge of security. The remaining eight teams swept the battlefield, gathered their horses, weapons, armor, and arrows, and swept them away.

After staying for half an hour, Qin and Han ordered the prisoners to take off their armor and put their shoes on the fire. Seeing that all the shoes of the Northern Plains cavalry were thrown on the fire, Qin and Han led the army to fly north.

Flying and stopping all the way, trying to adjust the state. When night came and the camp was found, Qin and Han ordered the eleventh team to be on guard while the rest of the team rested.

In the tent of King Youxian's army, the generals were looking at the mutton on the plate but did not dare to eat it, and they were drooping one by one.

King Youxian looked at the many generals with a sullen face. They suffered heavy losses today. They were beaten to the ground and five thousand people were killed right before their eyes. This was simply a great shame and humiliation.

Ever since the prime minister went to Donghai City to buy food but failed to return, there was no one in this big account who could give advice. The attack of the forward army was frustrated, and countless tribesmen fell by the river every day. After fighting for so long, None of the goals discussed with the Prime Minister before the war have been achieved, the losses have reached an intolerable level, the food crisis has emerged, and it is impossible to continue without a decisive battle. For the safety of the throne, maintain prestige. A decisive battle is also needed.

King Youxian stood up and whipped out his scimitar, shocking the generals' eyelids to twitch. King Youxian raised his sword and shouted, "The decisive battle will be tomorrow."

"Da Tu'an, your 30,000 troops will form the east route and attack Qin Dong's camp."

"As you command, my king"

"Santos, your 10,000 troops will form the west route and attack the Qinxi camp."

"As you command, my king"

"Qu Lu Chushan, Qu Lu Chu Farewell, you lead your headquarters, a thousand personal guards, and a total of 38,000 people with the vanguard to attack the Qin army's central camp."

"I obey, father," the eldest prince Qu Lu Chushan said happily.

"Father, my army has suffered heavy casualties. There are now less than 20,000 warriors. Please send some warriors to strengthen the central army." The fourth prince, Qu Luchu, said aggrievedly.

"Fourth brother, don't you know that now is the time to help your father solve his problems? You still have 20,000 troops, why do you still want your father's personal guards? What should I do if my father is safe?" The eldest prince scolded his younger brother.

King Youxian nodded appreciatively to his eldest son. He said, "That's it. Generals, go back and prepare for the decisive battle tomorrow. God Sirius, protect your believers and defeat the enemy."

"Sirius God" the generals raised their hands to the sky and shouted.

At midnight, the spies came to report that the camp of Beiyuan's rear army had been determined. Qin Han summoned the captains to inform them of the severe situation, and asked them to lead the tribesmen to persist until victory, and arranged a night attack plan.

The Qin and Han Dynasties ordered the 80th and 90th teams to surround the enemy camp, the 11th team to guard the south, and the remaining teams to concentrate on attacking the main camp.

At two quarters of Yinshi (3:30 in the morning), the main offensive troops attacked the Beiyuan rear army camp and moved back. When they reached the sky above the camp, as the command flag was lowered, arrows rained down from the sky in a continuous stream, and wailing screams were heard from below.

Qin and Han ordered "replacement of rockets".

The rocket then flashed high in the sky until it crashed to the ground, igniting everything that was combustible.

The great chaos in the camp caused the rear army commanders to wake up and rush to send orders to disperse and fight back. The order soldiers shouted wildly over and over again, so that the chaotic cavalry was gradually organized. When the hunters in the sky saw their prey gathering together, they immediately focused their fire. The smart cavalry fled out of the camp and formed a 'skirt' around the edge of the camp. Seeing this, the three teams surrounding the enemy immediately greeted them with rockets.

When the Qin and Han Dynasties saw the situation forming a confrontation, they immediately led ten elites to attack the leader of the Beiyuan cavalry. The Beiyuan cavalry lacked a command, and the chaos increased. People roared and horses roared, performing a bloody dance.

As time passed, only the rear army tent remained strong. The Qin and Han Dynasties once again concentrated ten thousand-stone compound bows and concentrated fire for three rounds with armor-piercing arrows before breaking their resistance.

Of the 20,000 Beiyuan rear troops, less than 5,000 broke through.

"Report, Beiyuan cavalry is attacking eighty kilometers south, numbering ten thousand."

Qin and Han Dynasties immediately ordered to "turn westward"

The Qin army, which had no time to clean up the battlefield, rushed westward without stopping.

With a distance of more than a hundred kilometers from the Beiyuan reinforcements, Qin Han immediately asked everyone to eat on the spot to restore their spiritual power. After everyone fed the Pegasus first, they wolfed down the spiritual meat and spiritual fruits.

The fourth prince, Qu Luchubie, came with his troops to help. When they entered the camp, only a mess was left. A feeling of fear came over him, and the fourth prince felt worried about the future of the tribe. Enemies come and go like the wind, which is a huge contrast from previous years when they only defended but did not attack, making it difficult for the tribe to resist.

Qin and Han saw that everyone had recovered a little, and Tianma had recovered well and could still fight. Then he said to everyone, "My dear friends, the enemy is around us. If they are not eliminated, we will not survive. Do you want to live?"

"Think" everyone shouted.

"Then go fight, don't be afraid of exhaustion, persistence is victory."

"Fight, fight, fight" everyone shouted.

Running on the ground while recovering their horsepower, when they were still twenty kilometers away from the Beiyuan rear army camp, the Qin and Han Dynasties ordered a triangular assault formation. After the order was given, each team lined up behind Qin and Han in reverse order. Qin Han led everyone to rush to Beiyuan reinforcements.

Qu Luchu, the fourth prince of Beiyuan, ordered a large army to stand by outside the camp and only sent 500 people into the camp. It was getting dark, and he had to lead his army back to participate in the decisive battle.

Qin and Han led their troops to rush to the sky above the cavalry square outside the camp, and fired fiercely at the shaking black shadow. Howls of pain continued to be heard. The Beiyuan cavalry quickly dispersed, and under the command of their respective generals, they launched an air counterattack. The Qin army suffered some casualties, and a dozen Pegasus horses fell. Qin Han led everyone across the ground camp and ordered them to climb higher. He personally led a ten-man commando team to fire fiercely at the place below where the counterattack was fierce, causing the enemy to fail to counterattack. He had no time to check the results and continued to look for the leading target to attack. After more than ten rounds of shooting, there was still no chaos among the Beiyuan cavalry on the ground. Qin and Han decided to withdraw first and then make plans.

The fate is unpredictable. If the Qin and Han Dynasties shoot one more round, the four princes of Beiyuan will be wiped out. Qu Luchu moved away from his bodyguards, looked for the war horse and rode on it. Just now, he had a close brush with death, and only a few of his guards were shot to death. The enemy in the sky saw him organizing troops and kept catching him. He narrowly escaped being killed, so he hurriedly summoned the generals.

When he saw only two generals, Qu Luchu looked up to the sky and roared, his roar full of unwillingness. Only two of the ten generals he had worked so hard to recruit were left. The loss of two of the three third-level powerhouses made him very heartbroken, and it hurt to the core of his heart.

After tidying up and abandoning the seriously injured, Qu Luchubie led his troops south. Qin and Han watched Beiyuan's movement from a distance and saw that it was heading south eagerly, ignoring the wounded, and must be going to participate in the decisive battle.

The Qin and Han Dynasties ordered the 11th team to clean the battlefield and bring back the remains of the Qin clan members, making sure that their souls could return to their hometown.

Qin and Han led their troops to hang behind Qu Luchu's troops. As soon as the Beiyuan cavalry stopped, they immediately rushed over to shoot arrows and retreated as soon as they fought back. The Beiyuan cavalry had to speed up and run away, but the annoying Qin family chased them and shot them.

The Qin and Han Dynasties let each team take turns to attack in the sky, continuously attacking the Beiyuan cavalry and slowing down their marching speed. Qin Jun's continuous attacks have reached the limit of physical strength, and now they are fighting for endurance.

Seeing that most of Qin's troops were on the ground, the Beiyuan cavalry excitedly divided their troops to pursue them. Seeing the Beiyuan cavalry chasing after them, Qin and Han led their troops to fly a "kite", which always made the Beiyuan cavalry unable to stop and wanted to retreat but refused to give up.

The two thousand people who were separated were dragged into pieces, and the maximum number was less than three hundred. When Qu Luchubie realized the danger, he immediately sent an order to withdraw his troops and let the red-chasing cavalry come back. But the order was given with caution, and after losing more than a thousand people, they broke away from Qin's pursuit.

When it was only more than fifty kilometers away from the lower camp of the Beiyuan Chinese Army, the Qin and Han Dynasties ordered to stop the pursuit and wait for the 11th Corps to catch up with the main force and then go west.

Qin Han ordered everyone to eat on horseback to restore their spiritual power. After running for more than a hundred kilometers, Qin Han asked everyone to stop and feed the Pegasus.

He was worried about the Western Front. According to the prisoners' confession, there were more than 10,000 cavalry on the Western Front, plus the herdsmen who could draw bows and arrows. The conservative number was 30,000. Qin's Western Camp had less than 5,000 troops, and its strength was still low. situation is even more difficult to deal with. Not only did they have to fight, but they also had to strictly defend the western section of the Qianshui River. This situation had to make Qin and Han's hearts pick up in their throats.

Seeing that the exhausted tribesmen had recovered a little, Qin Han immediately urged everyone to speed up the march. Everyone gritted their teeth and climbed onto the captured Kitabahara horse to let the Pegasus recover.

When the Qin and Han troops arrived, the battle between the two sides had already entered a fever pitch. A large number of Northern Plains cavalry dismounted and piled onto rafts, rushing towards the south bank of the river. Both sides no longer cared about casualties and just wanted to destroy each other. When the general's flag was in the water and most of the Beiyuan cavalry were also in the water, Qin and Han, who had no time to take a breath, led their troops from the air to attack targets in the river, shooting armor-piercing arrows at the enemy generals one after another.

Under the attack of Qin's clearing, the surface of the western section of the Qianshui River was filled with Beiyuan people. Some were out of breath, some were struggling, and some were struggling to swim to the south bank. The color of the river water is blood red and very charming.

When the mulberry military flag fell into the river, a tragic offensive and defensive battle ended. The victorious Qin family did not cheer for joy, it was too miserable.

There were more than 5,000 people in the West Camp with less than 1,500 people left. They also lost hundreds of people in the Qin and Han Dynasties, and more than 700 people were lightly or seriously injured, which can be considered seriously disabled.

More than 10,000 enemy cavalry were wiped out, and more than 10,000 herdsmen were killed in the battle. Nearly 20,000 herdsmen were captured, and countless cattle, sheep, and horses were seized.

The elders of the Xidaying tribe immediately sent personnel to report the victory to the Central Military Camp.

The Chinese camp, which was engaged in a fierce battle, received the report of victory from the Western camp, and everyone was overjoyed. He was originally worried that the West Camp would be breached by the Beiyuan people, but now he has received good news from them. He is organizing troops to come to support the Zhongda Camp. This made everyone who was struggling to defend even more happy and quickly asked them to send troops to help.

There were about 900 people left in the Qinhan headquarters, and the 500 people supported by the West Camp rushed towards the Zhongda Camp non-stop. Except for those who led the way and were on guard, the others lay on their horses and fell asleep. When they were still five hundred kilometers away from Zhongda Camp, Qin and Han ordered them to stop marching, rest on the spot, and feed the Pegasus. After half an hour, everyone just took a breath and was immediately ordered by Suhan to change to Kitarama and continue on their way.

Towards evening, the armies on both sides of the river temporarily withdrew their troops and returned to camp. After a fierce battle for a long time, both sides were exhausted and suffered heavy casualties. Qin's situation is better. , with the blessing of bed crossbows and trebuchets, the number of casualties was very few, the number of injured was high, but the loss of weapons and equipment was large.

After the Qin and Han troops arrived, they were immediately called to attend the military meeting. After hurriedly explaining the rest and recuperation matters, he followed the ordering troops to the military meeting tent.

In the eastern section of the Qianshui River, Datu'an led his troops to march slowly. A cavalryman came quickly from the distance, stopped in front of Datu'an's horse and said urgently, "Marquis Dadu'an, our army is defeated on the west road, and the battle is going on in the middle."

"I know, send the order and set up camp on the spot." Datuan said to the ordering soldier.

"Marquis Dadu, should we speed up our march? If we miss the military plane, it's hard to explain to the king!" A general was worried.

"I have traveled more than two thousand kilometers to execute the order. How can we fight without rest?" Datuan shouted angrily.

Qin and Han arrived at the military meeting tent and saw that everyone had heavy faces and remained silent. Until the oppressive atmosphere overwhelms the impatient.

A clan elder said anxiously, "We can't go on like this. We only defend but don't attack. By the time the battle is over, there won't be many clan members left."

"Then what do you think we should do? Are we going to let the Beiyuan cavalry trample on our homeland? There are rivers and natural dangers, so we have to fight hand-to-hand with a powerful enemy? How many of us are there, and how many of the enemy are there?" Another clan elder roared in retort.

Seeing the commotion, nothing could be discussed at the moment. Qin Han went to his grandfather and asked, "Grandpa, do we have oil?"

Qin Hai looked at his grandson and said in a daze, "Yes, but it is for the food of the lay people in the clan."

"We can use oil to attack with fire. When the Beiyuan people cross the river or attack the camp, we can kill the enemy on a large scale." Qin Han thought that fire attack was the method that the Qin family needed most at the moment.

"Okay, send a message to the clan immediately and have someone send it to you as soon as possible." Qin Hai decided after pondering for a moment.

Everyone decided to try the Qin and Han methods. One day is worth the wait.

As soon as day broke, the Beiyuan Middle Route Army launched an attack. Arrows from both sides crisscrossed each other, and blood flowers bloomed in the crowds on both sides. As soon as the Beiyuan people boarded the raft, they would be bombarded by crossbows and trebuchets. Neither side can do anything to the other, they are confronting each other and consuming each other.

In the Qin and Han Dynasties, they mainly looked for stones on this day, riding Beiyuan horses and digging for stones on the grassland. At midnight, the clan's oil supplies had been delivered, and Qin Han discussed specific plans with the clan elders.

According to the tactics of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the onslaught will be strengthened before noon tomorrow. Only one-tenth of the attack strength will be reserved between noon and evening to lure the enemy across the river. They will wait for the Beiyuan people to set fire to the river when they are halfway across the river, and set fire to the camp on the other side to force them to cross the river. chaos.

The next day, they attacked fiercely as planned, and the huge casualties made King Youxian think of retreating. But after noon, the pressure on Beiyuan's front line dropped sharply, and Qin's attack power was less than 10% of its usual strength. King Youxian and his generals were overjoyed when they heard about it, as if they saw victory in sight, but to prevent fraud, they ordered the front line to change sharply. After an hour and a half, they saw that the Qin army's attack was strong and weak, and they were determined. King Youxian's troops will hit the road army to press forward, and he will personally supervise the battle.

Seeing the Beiyuan people coming out in large numbers, Qin and Han's troops responsible for discharging oil also made final inspections.

Half of the people in Beiyuan went into the water, but the expected large-scale crossbow arrows and stone throws did not come, making the people in Beiyuan scream with excitement and paddle desperately. For a time, the Qianshui River was filled with dense rafts. The sparse rain of arrows and slings seemed to be the last to resist, but instead aroused the desire of the Beiyuan people.

Seeing that the first batch of warriors were about to board the south bank, King Youxian no longer hesitated and waved the remaining warriors to cross the river.

When the fastest Beiyuan man was still more than ten meters away from the south bank, it started to rain and rockets came from a distance. The Beiyuan people were horrified to find that the raindrops continued to burn when exposed to fire, and also rained on them. The first one who caught fire jumped into the river, the second, the third..., more and more Beiyuan people jumped in In the river, they were struggling desperately.

Seeing this scene, King Youxian hurriedly raised money to retreat his troops. But it’s not easy to retreat.

The fire burned for more than an hour. The Beiyuan people who were lucky enough to climb up to the south bank were shot to the ground by the Qin people who were guarding here.

Seeing that the situation was over, King Youxian of Beiyuan panicked and fled northward with his bodyguards. The eldest prince Qulu Chushan and the fourth prince Qulu Chubie quickly gathered their men and fled north.

Seeing that the enemy had fled, the clan elders ordered an all-out attack. Qin and Han immediately led their troops to cover up the killing, hanging kites behind the fleeing troops. The moment King Youxian abandoned his troops, the outcome of the war was decided.

In Dongda Camp, the Qin family counterattacked the Beiyuan East Route Army as usual, but also remained vigilant to prevent the Beiyuan people from playing tricks.

"Report, Lord Dudu, the army in the middle route has been defeated, and the king has withdrawn his troops."

"Send the order, withdraw the troops and go home." Da Tu'an said decisively.

The soldiers of the Qin family in the East Camp were in disbelief when they saw the Beiyuan cavalry retreating like a tide.

Qin and Han led more than 900 troops and more than 5,000 tribesmen to follow the Beiyuan cavalry and ran northward for nearly 2,000 kilometers before receiving the order to stop the pursuit, and each ministry took turns to withdraw.

In this battle, the army of more than 100,000 soldiers of King Youxian of Beiyuan was defeated. Although they paid a heavy price, the Qin family began to truly rise from this moment on.
