Daqin Engineers

Then the show started...

Zhang Qi led his guards to the forefront.

Zhang Qi's personal guards are all elites selected from the guards of the capital. They can also be said to be the personal soldiers of the Chu King. They are usually raised by good wine and meat, and their morale and combat effectiveness are naturally not comparable to ordinary troops.

They are also simple to deal with the horror of the Liang Army, that is, they send out a few soldiers to force their shields...

In fact, it can't be regarded as a forcible intrusion. After these shield soldiers enter the battlefield, they do not move forward, but use their shields to forcibly open the main body of the wolf.

This trick is something new.

The wolf pit is a long bamboo. It is not difficult to find the main trunk. The two shields rushed forward and forced the wolf pit to the left and right... and a path was split in the middle.

Although this path was still resisted by spears, there was no wolf to block the line of sight, so the threat was immediately smaller, and this battle was easier to break.

If Chu Jun had long thought of this kind of tactics or everyone was as brave as Zhang Qi's guards, it wouldn't be certain who would die in this battle between Qin and Chu.

On both sides of Zhang Qi are the cavalry of the capital guard army.

The most elite guards of the capital were actually chariots, but in this period, chariots were more colorful, and the chariots could not get out of the chariots to fight.

On the contrary, it is cavalry... It stands to reason that cavalry is better at fighting at once, and should not use cavalry to rush into battle.

However, as mentioned earlier, the cavalry in the Central Plains during this period were more horse infantry.

They don't have much riding and shooting skills, they use horses to maneuver to the destination and then dismount and fight.

Therefore, the cavalry is a selection of infantry to practice horse riding, and many noble children are among them.

This is due to cost and benefit considerations... If you do not select experienced and combat infantry training, it will lead to a greater probability of cavalry casualties on the battlefield due to defeat or other reasons.

And every casualty of cavalry will bring time cost, training cost and loss of horses.

Therefore, all countries choose soldiers with military exploits as cavalry and chariot soldiers, and the Qin army is no exception.

This is why Zhang Qi chose to break through with cavalry infantry.

Even Xiang Yan and Zhang Qi planned this way:

After these elite soldiers opened the gap and brought out the Queen of Chu, Xiang Yan would prepare horses and carriages outside. Then they only need to load the king of Chu, concubines and their luggage on the carriage, and each of the cavalry will be assigned a war horse. All the way to Dongting...This is another reason why cavalry is needed to break through.

Zhang Qi led his subordinates and a group of elites in front of him and rushed to take down the city.

Then he looked outside the village and couldn't help being overjoyed. There was a group of Chu army coming from the other side.

Without thinking about it, Zhang Qi shouted from afar:

"But what is under General Xiang? I am General Zhang Qi of the State of Zhu!"

The Chu Army outside the city immediately responded:

"I am General Xiang, who placed the commander of Lieutenant Xiang Rui. General Xiang ordered me to come to meet him. Will the King be well?"

Zhang Qi hurried forward and replied:

"The king is well, hurry up and cover me to break through!"

Xiang Rui responded and asked the soldiers to make way.

Zhang Qi didn't doubt that he had it, so he led his troops forward while constantly urging the rear to move fast.

However, the more Zhang Qi thought about it, the more wrong it became.

All this came too easy, and why didn't the Qin army counterattack at this time?

If Qin Jun was so easy to deal with, how could he return with tens of times the military strength in Ruyin but with a heavy loss.

In addition, Xiang Rui and his group looked at them, but looked like a wolf staring at a lamb that fell into a trap...

Thinking of Zhang Qi secretly saying bad, then shouted:

"It's a trick, they are Qin Jun!"

"Withdraw into the city, withdraw into the city..."

This Qi is quite capable and can see through Shen Bing's strategy.

In fact, Shen Bing didn't want to deceive Zhang Qi for long.

The reason why he took such a great deal of effort to make people pretend to be Xiang Jun to lure Zhang Qi into deceive, was only worried that King Chu, not far from the city, found that the situation was not right, and returned to the city immediately. When he wanted to catch him, it would be too late.

But if there is a "Chu army" in front of Zhang Qi steadily, so that they can move forward more smoothly and at ease, it will be difficult for King Chu to return to the city again.

At this time, even if Zhang Qi saw through this plan and immediately ordered to return to the city, it was already too late.

With an order from Shen Bing, "Xiang Rui" and others suddenly attacked Zhang Qi.

Because both sides were wearing the armors of the Chu Army, they were killing each other in chaos, even the elite guards of the capital.

At the same time, the beam army rushed over from the other side, and the guards of the capital suddenly became a mess.

Zhang Qi was about to retreat with his guards, but found that there was a deep pit several steps wide inside the walled city behind him, which forcibly broke the way back to the city for the capital guards.

In fact, it didn't just break the way back to the city for the capital guards.

The appearance of this deep pit actually broke the connection between Zhang Qi's tribe and Chu Wang's Chu... Chu Wang's Chu and his ministers and concubines followed Zhang Qi.

Originally Zhang Qijun could protect King Chu as soon as he turned around, but now...Zhang Qi could only watch the Liangjun approaching King Chu step by step.

Although all of the soldiers of Chu Wang’s team were wearing armor, most of them were disguised as concubines and slaves without the power to bind the chickens. There were only two wings and some soldiers, but facing a powerful beam army, it was like a praying man. Block the car.

Seeing that the king of Chu was unhappy, he hurriedly shouted:

"Go back to the city, go back to the city..."

But at this time, there was an urgent need to retreat. The Liangjun ambushing on the river bank suddenly broke out. After a stone bullet and arrow passed, the trail on the Huai River was blocked by the Liangjun.

The concubines immediately panicked and cried. King Chu hurriedly drew out his sword to defend himself, and at the same time shouted in the direction of Zhang Qi:

"General Zhu Guo save me!"

Zhang Qi could only sigh secretly:

"At this time, the gods are afraid that they can't do anything."

In fact, there is another way for Chu Wangfu to escape into the Huai River behind him.

At this time, the Huai River was completely waterless because the upper reaches of the Huai River were filled with "grass-wrapped mud". If Chu Wang Chuan was not afraid of getting dirty, he jumped in and rode up the river by night, and the Chu army blocked it again. It's impossible to let him escape back to the city.

But Chu Wang, the king of the country, was a great king of the country. Because his identity was also used to pamper him, he didn't even consider such a shameful escape method.

Then, before the Liangjun came forward, King Chu threw down his sword and shouted:

"I'm waiting, don't want to kill my life..."

After Shen Bing confirmed that it was King Chu he had caught, he passed the news on immediately.

At the same time, he took Chu Wang Chui to the heights of the walled city and lit a torch to make it bright.

Then the soldiers of the Qin Army shouted in unison:

"The king of Chu descends, and the kingdom of Chu is dead!"

"The king of Chu descends, and the kingdom of Chu is dead!"

...

The cry soon reached Xiang Yan's ears.

Xiang Yan didn't believe it at first, but seeing that the king of Chu was under the fire from the heights of the walled city, he had no choice but to order:

"Withdraw!"
