Daqin Engineers

The benefit of the Black Armour is a sharp drop in pressure.

On the one hand, the Black Armored Army can rest at night, because Xiang Bojun has never dared to attack the city at night since the last infiltration battle.

On the other hand, the Black Armed Forces can concentrate their forces on the east for defense, and even they can rest in batches.

But even so, the Black Armored Army that has been fighting hard for days is still hovering on the edge of the city break.

I don’t know how long it took, Chen Duan, standing at the head of the city, suddenly shouted:

"Cavalry, cavalry from the west!"

The reason why Chen Duan was so excited was because Xiang Yan's army to the south of Ruyin was unlikely to retreat in this direction, so the cavalry appeared on the west side and it was most likely the Qin army.

Sure enough, soon a black "Yang" banner appeared in the sight of everyone, and the soldiers immediately cheered.

But the Chu army under the city wall was all dejected like wilted cabbage.

There were not many cavalry troops coming, there were only dozens of them. They should be the spies the Qin army had placed in front of the troops, so they just waved a few flags in the direction of Ruyin and did not approach.

But this is enough, because the arrival of the spies means that the main force will not be too far away.

Uncle Xiang flew to Zhang Qi in the first place... It was time to withdraw the troops in Xiang Uncle's intention, but Zhang Qi was crushed by it.

Now the Qin army spies have arrived at Ruyin, there should be no doubt about the withdrawal.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Qi still ordered:

"Send cavalry to disperse it and continue to attack the city."

As a result, even the few lieutenants placed by Zhang Qi refused to agree:

"General, Xiang Yan withdrew from Rushui and Qin army must take Ruyin to break the line of defense."

"If our army continues to attack the city, it will face the main force of the Qin army with hundreds of thousands!"

"General, I have not built defenses except for the siege in the past few days, and the troops are less than 50,000 and the morale is low. If I fight the Qin army here, I am afraid..."

In fact, Zhang Qi also knew that he had to withdraw at this time, he just couldn't swallow this breath.

When Bo Xiang saw Zhang Qi still unmoved, he turned his eyes and persuaded:

"The subordinate General Zhizhuguo intends to fight the Qin army."

"The guards of the capital are led by General Zhuguo, and the cavalry and chariots are the main force of the guards."

"If the general loses here, who will defend Shouchun?"

"Therefore, my subordinates implore you to attack the city here, and the general will take the lead!"

What Uncle Xiang said was very good, but it was Xiang Yan who was in charge of the military at this time. Even General Zhu Guo, Zhang Qi, did not dare to withdraw and leave Xiang Yan's son here.

However, Zhang Qi can be considered a step down, he sighed and said:

"Fine, this trip will be cheaper for Shen Bing's servant, and come back to take his life later."

"General Xiang is commendable for his courage, but if the battle is set, there is no need to attack again, so let's retreat to Shouchun with me!"

The generals were overjoyed and rushed to promise.

So it didn't take long for the Chu army to retreat like a tide, leaving only an abandoned tent, siege equipment and corpses.

When Shen Bing and the black armies saw this, they didn't even have the strength to cheer. They just sat on the wall.

When people are stressed, the adrenal hormone secretion accelerates, so they don't feel tired. When they relax, they feel like the bones of the whole body are scattered.

After a while, Wang Ben laughed:

"Have a great battle!"

"With 3,000 manpower against the 70,000 elite of the Chu army, Wang Ben had never even thought about it before."

"But under the leadership of the lieutenant, this battle has come true..."

Chen Duan took a sip of wine with the water bag, then handed it to Shen Bing, and said:

"I can't believe it until now. I will really repel the Chu Army. Seventy thousand Chu Army?!"

Wang Ben asked:

"Do you still hope that Chu Jun won't succeed?"

"If Chu Jun wins, I'm afraid that Zhang Qi will have to wait for my corpse to vent his hatred."

Chen Duan smiled weakly:

"With this battle, what regrets is it that the corpses are broken into pieces..."

A mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth before he finished speaking.

Seeing that something was wrong, Shen Bing hurried forward to tear off Chen Duan's leather armor... He discovered that his abdomen had two sword wounds wrapped in sackcloth, and it had been a few days since the wounds were suppurative.

It turned out that Chen Duan kept fighting with injuries in order not to affect the command of the Black Armored Army.

Looking at his injury, it might be okay if he recovered a few days ago, but now the wound has been seriously infected, and he can only wait to die in the era without antibiotics.

Shen Bing sighed and only asked:

"Do you have family?"

Chen Duan's intermittent answer:

"There is an old mother, look at Vice Admiral..."

Shen Bing nodded:

"Don't say anything."

"Don't worry, I will treat her like a biological mother."

Chen Duan breathed a sigh of relief, and then shivered a few times as if catching a cold and then disappeared.

The surrounding soldiers bowed their heads in salute, and the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was rain or tears that drenched everyone's faces.

Shen Bing slowly picked up Chen Duan's body, walked to the bottom of the city step by step, and then lay it flat on the ground... There were more than a thousand corpses, the dead black armored soldiers.

The ancients were very taboo against the death of a guest in a foreign land, because they believed that if they were buried elsewhere in the foreign land of the guest, the soul would not find a way back home and could not be reincarnated into the soul.

Therefore, all these corpses were not processed in the capital in order to have a chance to be transported back to the beam for burial.

Looking at the corpses in one place, Shen Bing didn't know what it was like.

They believe in themselves and follow them from birth to death, but in the end this is the result.

Although they won, they also got credit.

But what is the meaning of these victories and credits to them?

Sometimes Shen Bing didn't know if he was right or wrong to participate in the disputes of this world.

Just when Shen Bing was in a daze, there were soldiers at the head of the city shouting excitedly:

"Lieutenant General, reinforcements, reinforcements are coming! It is the general's troops!"

It was Yang Duanhe’s troops who were here. Knowing that Ruyin’s fighting was tense, he personally led five thousand light cavalry and five thousand chariot soldiers to come to reinforce... Qin’s army was heavy and not heavy, so it was already a cavalry of this size. Not bad.

Originally, Yang Duanhe thought he would have to fight a battle in Ruyin to get out of the siege, but apparently he was too worried.

The Chu army had already withdrawn when Qin Jun arrived.

Due to time constraints, the Chu army did not even come to move the corpse in a hurry and did not bury it... Part of the reason was that there were too many casualties during the infiltration war. More than 20,000 people were killed and injured in one night, and it was too late to bury it.

Another part of the reason was that the Chu army was confused in the organization and did not know each other, and there were so many people who had no relatives and no reason, so naturally they could not take care of them.

The corpses all over the place left Yang Duanhe and his cavalry stunned.

Yang Duanhe even asked Li Yan next to him:

"Is there anyone else in our army to reinforce Ruyin?"

"Otherwise, with the number of three thousand Shen Bing, how could the Chu army be killed or injured like this?"
