What made Wang Ling feel a little relieved was that the Qin army's combat effectiveness was not vegetarian. In just a short moment, the soldiers under his command completed the mobilization in time before the Zhao army's cavalry operations.

Compared with Wang Ling's nervous look, Li Mu looked at all this from afar, with a relaxed expression on his face, and he could even chat with the deputy general Xu Li around him leisurely.

"General Xu Li, do you think this round of impact can work?"

Xu Li thought about it and shook his head slowly: "It's hard."

In fact, what Xu Li didn't say is that he felt that this was a waste of the lives of the Zhao army's cavalry.

Li Mu saw Xu Li’s thoughts and laughed at it, not saying anything.

Just as the two of them were talking, the Zhao light cavalry from the front had already entered the range of the Qin army.

Wang Ling issued an order without any hesitation: "Che!"

With Wang Ling's order, the Qin crossbowmen who had already prepared were immediately pressed the hanging knife (trigger) without hesitation.

"Swoosh swish swish!" The dense crossbow arrows immediately shot out, covering hundreds of Zhao cavalry rushing in the front.

Many Zhao army cavalry were caught in the arrows and fell from horses. For a moment, smoke and dust were thrust, and the sound of horses rolling and screams of people sounded in the smoke and dust, which also made Wang Ling, who was watching all this, feel relieved.

It seems that the border cavalry legion of Zhao State seems to be nothing extraordinary.

But the next moment, Wang Ling's pupils suddenly locked slightly: "Hmm?"

In the smoke and dust in the sky, one after another of the Zhao cavalry rushed out and continued to rush towards the Qin army's chariot formation fearlessly.

Wang Ling suddenly discovered that the results of this round of volley shots were much smaller than expected.

The Zhao cavalry were all separated when charging, and the distance between horses was very wide, which made the Qin army's crossbows unable to fully exert their lethality.

Wang Ling was not panicked and ordered again with great calmness: "Win the string quickly and prepare for the second round of shooting!"

Although the cavalry is very mobile, Wang Ling knew in his heart that as long as his chariot formation was still there, the Zhao army light cavalry wearing simple leather armor would be helpless against their defense.

After two rounds of powerful crossbows, the Zhao cavalry in front of him finally approached the range of the bow and arrow.

By this time, Wang Ling could even clearly see the faces of the Hu cavalry rushing in front. These Hu cavalrymen in Zhao State were short and had two legs, which looked a bit ridiculous compared to the tall Qin soldiers.

But Wang Ling couldn't laugh at all. He sat on the saddle and skillfully bent his bow and arrows, shooting towards the Qin army's positions.

Hundreds of bows and arrows gathered into a rain of arrows and fell into the Qin army's positions. Many Qin soldiers could not avoid it and were caught in the arrows, and screams were heard.

Immediately afterwards, two extremely sharp sounds slashed through the air and pierced into Wang Ling's eardrum.

Wang Ling frowned and looked closely and found that the sound was actually transmitted by two arrows.

"This is whistling!"

Mingdi was originally created by northern nomads, but was later used on a large scale by the Zhao cavalry and became a prop for the Zhao cavalry to convey orders and guide the direction in combat.

Wang Ling's face changed slightly.

After these two whistles rang, the Zhao cavalry, who had originally rushed towards him like a tide, suddenly divided into two left and right branches from the center, and rushed towards the left and right wings of the front of the Qin army.

While changing direction, the Zhao army's cavalry were still bent their bows and arrows and shooting towards the Qin army's positions.

The horse's hooves trampled on the ground, and rolling smoke and dust filled the air. It seemed as if waves of sandstorms were shattered before the Qin army's position, which greatly hindered the Qin army's sight.

But the Qin army had a defensive advantage after all. Under the premise that the Zhao cavalry could not rush to the formation, the Qin army's powerful crossbows and arrows played a sufficient role, and waves of arrows shot out from behind the chariot formation, causing the casualties of the Zhao cavalry to continue to increase.

Military information after military information reached Wang Ling's ears.

"General, the Zhao army on both sides of the left and right have already gone around the rear of our army!"

"General, this division of cavalry has gone around the left and right wings!"

At this moment, a huge sound of horse hooves sounded again, and the smoke and dust that were about to dissipate on the front of the Qin army suddenly became denser again.

Another Zhao army cavalry broke out from the smoke and dust and came towards the frontal position of the Qin army.

Wang Ling took a deep breath and suddenly had a headache.

"Why are the cavalry of the Zhao army so endless?"

This time, there were at least two thousand Zhao cavalrymen appearing in the front of the Qin army!

What made Wang Ling even more unhappy was that the Zhao people were much faster than themselves, so even if they only appeared in front of Wang Ling at only one thousand or two thousand every time, Wang Ling had no choice but to take the initiative.

What just happened was almost unchanged and was staged again in front of the Qin army.

A moment later, another whistle sounded. This time, the two thousand Zhao cavalry who appeared in the front of the Qin army divided their troops again, and walked around the front of the Qin army and headed towards the left and right sides.

...

"The Zhao cavalry is back, come back!" A panic-like shout came into Wang Ling's ears.

When Wang Ling looked back, he found that the two Zhao army and thousand cavalry that had bypassed the Qin army's position at the beginning actually appeared on the two wings of the Qin army again after turning a large circle!

Looking down from the sky, you will find that these Zhao army cavalry are like several fierce poisonous snakes, constantly surrounding the Qin army that has formed a formation to protect itself, shooting arrows while spinning, but they will never launch a rush to the formation.

Every quarter of an hour passed, a Zhao cavalry would slowly withdraw from the battlefield, and then a new Zhao cavalry would join the battle group.

Time passed minute by minute, and before I knew it, the sun had set west, and it was about to fall into the west horizon in at most half an hour.

On all sides of the Qin army's positions, there were the sound of horse hooves made by the Zhao army's cavalry when they rode their horses, and there were rolling smoke and dust everywhere.

Wang Yan stood on the high chariot and looked around. He could not see anything except the countless smoke and dust and the Zhao cavalry that appeared in the smoke and dust, as well as the bows and arrows that kept shooting out of the smoke and dust!

Wang Ling frowned. Although the battle did not cause much damage to the Qin army after the past half day of battle, the feeling of having enemies from all directions and not being able to see clearly the enemy's arrangements was really bad.

What made Wang Ling even more worried was that because these Zhao army cavalry had been interspersing in front of the Qin army at high speed but did not launch a frontal attack. In addition, their formation was far less dense than that of the infantry when they charged, and there were smoke and dust as a cover, the Qin army's arrows actually had limited killing of these Zhao army cavalry and were not as effective as they deal with infantry.

The chariots Wang Ling carried in this battle were limited, and the other three sides lacked sufficient protection except for the front line of defense, so the infantry could only hold shields and act as cover in front.

If we continue to consume this, when all the arrows are exhausted, Wang Ling's army will probably become the turtle in the jar of the Zhao cavalry!

A chill broke out in Wang Ling's heart.

But Wang Ling immediately became calmer again because Wang Ling suddenly remembered that he had reinforcements!

Although Wang Ling didn't carry too many arrows with his army, as long as he saves a little, it should be fine to last a day or two.

As long as reinforcements arrive, they can cooperate inside and outside and defeat the Zhao army!

At this time, another sound of horse hooves came from the smoke and dust from afar. It was obvious that the Zhao army general on the opposite side dispatched another cavalry.

For some reason, when Wang Ling heard the sound of horse hooves, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

The sound of horse hooves seemed too heavy and too dense.

Wang Ling turned his gaze left and right, and finally found the source of the sound.

It does not come from the front of the Qin army, but from the flanks of the Qin army.

Wang Ling seemed to remember something, and his face changed.

"Does it mean..."

Just when this thought came to Wang Ling's mind, a cavalry that Wang Ling had never seen before rushed out of the rolling smoke and dust and appeared in Wang Ling's sight.
Chapter completed!
