General Qin

Chapter 261 Battle of Surabaya

With a leap of his legs, Hei Hip jumped into the battle formation of the Qin army from the gap between the two carriages.

Immediately afterwards, the Qin soldiers who had just moved out of the way came up again, holding crossbows in their hands, and using the cover of the wooden body, they aimed at the Chu people who were about to enter the range.

"Marquis, I did a good job. I yelled at the Zuo Sima of Chu, and he was so angry that he immediately ordered the Chu army to launch an attack. In this way, it was against our plan. Should it be credited?"

Heibutt ran in, pleading for credit with a shy face.

"After the battle, let the military judge write a note for you, and go back to Xianyang to ask for a reward for you. Now, go command your soldiers, and we will face a bloody battle next." Zhao Tuo said in a deep voice.

Black Butt responded, and ran to direct his 1,000 soldiers to defend with a smile on his face.

Zhao Tuo stood in a car specially designed for him to watch and command.

He first looked at the situation of the Chu army from a distance, and saw that the Chu army who rushed to charge after receiving the attack order in a hurry was still some distance away from them.

Zhao Tuo took advantage of the situation and shouted: "Second and third sons, the Chu army has arrived. We have no chance to retreat. Surabaya is behind us. It is a desperate situation. The only way for us to survive is to defeat the Chu army in front of us!" "

"Beat them, we can go home, this is our only hope to go home! Go home!"

Under Zhao Tuo's loud call, the homesickness of the four thousand soldiers of the Qin Dynasty was mobilized again, and at the moment the Chu army was attacking head-on, this emotion reached its peak and turned into a strong fighting spirit and fighting spirit!

"I'm going home!"

"Defeat the Chu people and go home!"

...

Four thousand Qin soldiers roared loudly together, many people's eyes filled with tears, and their hands holding weapons were trembling.

Even General Pi Xin Wu, who was sitting in the back, was affected by this emotion. He excitedly raised his intact arm and shouted: "Go home!"

Seeing that the Qin army's fighting spirit reached its peak at this moment, Zhao Tuo nodded in satisfaction, and then jumped off the chariot.

Stand tall and see far.

But if there were a few sharpshooters from the Chu army, maybe one shot would kill Zhao Tuo, Zhao Tuo didn't want to put himself in such a dangerous situation.

Today's Qin army battle formation does not require him to command from a high place.

These four thousand Qin soldiers have only one mission and one tactic.

That is to hold on!

Four thousand blocks ten thousand!

Until, that decisive opportunity arrives!

At this moment, the soldiers of the Chu army who galloped hundreds of meters also entered the range of the Qin people's crossbows.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Arrows flew like a storm, and the Chu people who rushed to the front fell down in a row, wailing.

Under the call sign of the military officials, the Chu soldiers who followed closely stepped on the bodies of these robes and continued to charge towards the Qin army.

As long as they ran fast enough, the Qin people would not be given another chance to shoot arrows.

But immediately, after the Qin soldiers who had finished shooting the crossbow arrows retreated, the second wave of Qin soldiers holding crossbows came up again, and they also shot wildly at the Chu army, and this time the distance was closer and the shots were more intense. To be sure, at least dozens of Chu people fell down in a wave of shooting.

But Qin Jun's shooting stopped here.

The crossbowmen retreated immediately after shooting, and the Qin soldiers with spears and long beryllium came up to them. They put the long weapons in their hands in the gap between the carriages, facing the charging Chu people.

As long as the Chu army rushed to the front of the formation, they would stab out the long beryllium and spears, piercing those hateful Chu people one by one.

Nearly 30 horse-drawn carriages of the Qin army were placed horizontally around Surabaya, forming a half-moon shape, forming a special barrier.

In the gaps between each adjacent carriage, there are spears and long berylliums several meters long. From a distance, the entire Qin army's position is like a hedgehog with sharp thorns, which is very impressive. Difficult to do.

So Chu Zu who rushed to the front was very helpless.

The Chu soldier holding a long weapon was about to approach cautiously, and with the spear in his hand, he had a stabbing contest with the Qin soldier on the opposite side, to see who would stab first.

But Pao Ze, who immediately followed closely, pushed these Chu soldiers forward involuntarily.

Then Qin Jun's spear came out like a dragon.

The sharp spear tip pierced the Chu soldier's leather armor, pierced into his stomach, punctured his stomach, and then pierced his back, piercing into the body of the Chu man behind him again.

Accompanied by the screams of the Chu people, the spears stabbed out frantically, retracted, stabbed out...

The Chu soldiers with short soldiers wanted to avoid the spears of the Qin army, and wanted to climb onto the carriages that were used as shelters, so that they could jump into the Qin army's battle formation behind and kill all sides.

But behind the carriage, there were also Qin soldiers holding long halberds and swinging wildly there, hooking or pecking, killing and wounding these Chu people non-stop.

Of course, after paying some painful casualties, someone from the Chu army took advantage of the opportunity of their robes to block the spears, rushed to the carriage, and killed some Qin soldiers with spears in their hands.

Even more brave Chu people took the opportunity to jump into the battle formation of the Qin army behind the carriage, trying in vain to have a massacre. Although these Chu soldiers were quickly killed by the Qin people with short soldiers with random swords inside, they still Caused some damage to the Qin army.

Amid the sound of war drums and under the threat of the military judge, the soldiers of Chu rushed towards the battle formation of the Qin army one by one.

The bright red blood flowed by the banks of Surabaya. After every scream, someone would fall to the ground. There were more and more corpses. Some corpses piled up in front of the carriage were more than half a meter high.

From time to time, bold Chu soldiers climbed to high places with the corpses of the Chu army's robes, trying to jump into the Qin army's battle formation from above, but such people were often shot down by the stringed crossbowmen behind the Qin army, and became A member of this mountain of corpses.

In this weird battle, the Chu army didn't need any formations and tactics at all, they just needed to charge forward with weapons. Their purpose was to break through this line of defense made up of car barriers, rush into the Qin army's battle formation, and kill them all. More Qin people died.

The Qin army didn't need any formations, they just needed to block the Chu army from the barrier formed by the carriages. If a Qin pawn fell, the Qin pawns from behind would go up to make up for it.

In the eyes of the soldiers of the two armies, there was nothing else but the word "kill".

"Zuo Sima, this Qin army is too cunning. They used those vehicles as cover to kill and injure our army in large numbers. If this continues, even if they can be wiped out here, our 10,000 people will definitely suffer heavy casualties!"

Jing Tong gritted his teeth and opened his mouth, looking at the tragic battlefield in the distance, his eyelids twitched.

When he saw these carriages for the first time, he didn't think much about it. He just thought that Qin Jun was cowardly and didn't dare to confront them head-on, so he could only make some cover to hide behind.

With the bravery of the Chu people, they can win with a few charges at most.

Unexpectedly, in the real fight, the barriers formed by those carriages were much stronger than Jing Tong imagined. With the Qin soldiers behind the carriages wielding spears, swords and halberds, the bank of Surabaya became a death zone for Chu people.

So what if the Chu army has 10,000 troops?

In front of the line of thirty carriages, the available troops were not all the same as the Qin army.

So although Zhaoping called for the whole army to attack, in fact, the Chu army sent to besiege in the first round was only 5,000 people.

Because facing the Qin people's half-moon-shaped defense line, there are only a few people who can fight. If there are too many people, the others can only stand behind and stare at each other, unable to exert their strength advantage at all.

And because the Qin army had cover, the Chu army suffered far more casualties than the Qin people.

"Then what do you say?"

Zhaoping turned his head sideways and looked at Jingtong coldly.

Cold sweat broke out on Jing Tong's forehead, and he actually didn't know what to do.

In the current situation, he always felt that it was impossible to take down the Qin army by force, but should he retreat?

Looking at Zhao Ping's eyes that were red with anger, Jing Tong knew that this was impossible.

And Jing Tong can understand and know why.

Honor of nobility.

undefiled.

If it was him, maybe he would do the same.

"I have 10,000 people, even if I exchange two for one, I can kill the people of Qin here!"

Zhaoping gritted his teeth, his words were full of hatred.

He was a veteran of the Chu army, and he had to be taught by Zhu Guo. He could be regarded as one of the best generals in the Chu army. He was quite strategic in the military, so he would not have acted like this.

But helplessly, this Qin army stimulated him so much that he almost lost his mind.

Mouth full of obscenities, obscene insults.

Not only scolded Zhaoping in public, but also scolded his mother for being a lowly maid.

As the first son of the Zhao family, can Zhaoping bear it?

Not to mention the black butt exposed by the black buttocks kept appearing in his mind.

What a shame!

Zhaoping is mad with hatred!

So what if all 10,000 Chu people died in this battle?

Then pull 10,000 people from the cities of Chu.

The lowly common people of Guishou, one will die and another will be born.

How could their lives be compared with the honor of a nobleman!

"I'm going to kill Zhao Tuo, Hei Bi, and all Qin people!"

Zhaoping roared angrily: "Let those injured wastes back down and get out of the way, and send all 4,000 people up except for the short soldiers. I will kill all the Qin people at all costs!"

Jing Tong was shocked, knowing that Zhaoping's order could not be changed, he quickly sent an order to the generals, and Ming Jin called back the five thousand Chu troops who were attacking.

Of the 5,000 Chu people who fought in just half an hour, only less than 4,000 were able to return, and most of them were injured.

In the Qin army formation, Bai Rong wiped the blood from his face, walked back and said, "Mr. Jun, the people of Chu Mingjin, do we want to take this opportunity to hunt down?"

Zhao Tuo shook his head and said, "No need, they still have thousands of fresh troops. If they attack, they might be ambushed and lose the protection of the chariot fortress. Then Zhaoping probably needs another group of people to attack."

"You take advantage of this time to let the injured and exhausted Paoze retreat to the back to rest. Then move the body to the rear, so as not to affect the next battle. Xiqigu, you take my short soldiers up, you must We must withstand the next attack from the Chu people. I am in the rear and do not need your protection."

"only."

Xi Qigu didn't say much, he took the order and stepped forward, leading five hundred short soldiers, to join the deployment in the front row.

Zhao Tuo looked at those Qin soldiers walking back from the front row. Many of them were limping, with their hands drooping weakly.

The long-term fighting and fighting not only made them highly nervous, but also exhausted their bodies. It happened to take advantage of the Chu army's replacement to go to the rear to rest and change defenses with Pao Ze who had stayed in the rear before.

Of course, this is only a part of the people, and there are still some Qin soldiers who will never stand up again, never return to their hometown, and see their relatives.

Zhao Tuo was silent.

During this short rest period, the Qin soldiers threw the corpses of the Chu people in the battle formation into Surabaya behind them, and the remains of Paoze were temporarily piled up on the shore to clean up the battlefield behind the carriage so as not to affect the next stage. battle.

Zhao Tuo made a rough count and found that in this round of attacks, the Qin army had killed nearly 400 people. This number was almost the same as the number of people who died in battle since their war against Chu.

"Although there are many casualties in our army, more Chu people will die. This is thanks to the carriages you brought. Otherwise, my 4,000 Qin army and his 10,000 Chu army would have such a record. .”

Seeing Zhao Tuo's mournful face, Xin Wu couldn't help but comfort him.

Zhao Tuo nodded, as Xin Wu said, judging from the densely packed corpses outside the carriage, the casualties of the Chu army this time were several times that of the Qin army, at least thousands of people.

Moreover, they not only killed and wounded the Chu army a lot, judging from the appearance of those Chu soldiers fleeing in embarrassment after Mingjin, Zhao Tuo estimated that the remaining three or four thousand people might have been scared out of their wits and lost the ability to attack again. and guts.

Next, the Qin army only needs to withstand the second round of the Chu army's attack.

At this time, all the Chu troops who had besieged before had withdrawn.

In the battle formation of the Chu army, the heavy drum was beating, and the military order from Zuo Sima was issued. After receiving the order, four thousand Chu troops walked towards the battle formation of the Qin army on the bank of Sishui.

The Chu army launched a second round of attacks.

This time, the battle was still fierce. Although these Chu soldiers were frightened by the corpse of Pao Ze in front of the carriage, they were still a new force after resting for half an hour, and their offensive was still very fierce. Stop damage.

"Mr. Jun, why hasn't Shejian come? Could it be that he wants to wait until our army's battle formation is broken by the Chu people before he makes a move?"

Zhang He retreated from the front line, covered in blood, complaining in front of Zhao Tuo.

Although covered by horse-drawn carriages, the morale of the Qin army was like a rainbow, which made their combat effectiveness far surpass that of the Chu people, and they were able to cause a lot of damage to the enemy.

However, the Qin army's own casualties are also increasing, and the death toll seems to be close to 600, and the remaining soldiers are getting more and more tired.

Zhao Tuo pursed his lips.

Sure enough, not everyone can use the last stand. No wonder, except for Han Xin and a very few famous generals in history, most of the generals who dared to use this move ended in failure.

Even if their Qin army has all kinds of good state blessings, their hearts are like an arrow, their morale is like a rainbow, and they are brave and good at fighting, it is still difficult to offset the gap in the number of thousands of people.

It is so difficult to win more with less, and it is not the world's famous general An Neng.

But Zhao Tuo is confident.

Because he still has backhand.

"Shejian, it's your turn."
