Bi San's death once again seriously stimulated the barbarian soldiers' previous confidence in victory. In their view, apart from their cunning character, the people of the Central Plains were not as brave as them at all. Now it seems that is not the case. His Majesty the Barbarian King Two of the three generals died in the first round.
Ji Jie put away his gun and sat on the horse, pointed at the Barbarian King from a distance, stretched out his left hand and hooked his fingers.
In fact, with Bi San's martial arts, he wouldn't be able to even make a move in front of Ji Jie. Who made him expose the secret of the scimitar too early? In the final analysis, he still suffered the disadvantage of short weapons.
"Ji Jie, accept death!" Zhidu ignored everyone's dissuasion and came over with a gun.
Xiong Bi, who returned to the formation, became much more awake after taking the pills and could now sit up. He watched Ji Jie and the system fight together and said to the people around him: "I didn't expect that barbarians also like to play dirty. , If I had known this, I would not be polite to that ugly man, and I would not have fallen into this trap. I still want to kill the barbarian king, so there is no need for you to take action!"
All the lieutenants nodded one after another, although many people thought that Xiong Bi was being stubborn.
"when……"
The two guns collided with each other and made a crisp sound. Ji Jie and Zhidu felt their hands go numb at the same time. They were equally powerful and neither one took advantage.
…
Don't trust anyone but yourself! This is Lu Buwei's consistent style, so when he heard that the barbarians had started fighting with the Zhou army, he didn't show much surprise. This was related to the fact that the Qin army was defeated by Ji Jie several times. To a certain extent, not only him, but the entire Qin State no longer believes that the Qin Army is invincible.
Since his own army may not be able to win, how could he put all his treasure on the Barbarian King?
"Come, go and invite General Meng!" Lu Buwei ordered his subordinates.
Meng Ao quickly arrived at the Prime Minister's Mansion, bowed to him and said: "Master Prime Minister, I will obey your orders!"
"You did a great job in leading hundreds of thousands of people back to Xianyang through the trail last time, and you deserve praise!" Lu Buwei said this first.
Meng Ao was stunned, thinking back to the last time he was ordered to return to Xianyang, Lu Buwei never praised him, because at that time he already knew that he had fallen into Ji Jie's scheme. What does it mean to look back and mention it again now?
"The general doesn't understand what the prime minister means!" Meng Ao said bluntly. He knew very well that his intelligence was not as good as Lu Buwei's. Instead of trying his best to guess, it would be better to ask directly.
Lu Buwei smiled faintly and said: "I want General Meng to lead a group of troops to go around Ji Jie's rear defense, and launch a sneak attack while he is fighting with the barbarians. I will use the same path as last time, but I still don't know what is going on." Go out when you feel like it.”
Meng Ao was startled and said quickly: "That path is no longer safe. If the Zhou army sets up a formation on the outside, they will undoubtedly fall into a trap!"
Lu Buwei's old face sank and said: "Of course I know, so I put you in charge of this matter. I believe that General Meng must have a better way to complete the task! You have been defeated by Ji Jie many times, don't you want to clear your name?" "
Meng Ao frowned. This was indeed an opportunity. Although it was still unclear whether it would be successful or not, he still nodded and said: "Okay, I will take the order!"
"That's right!" Lu Buwei patted him on the shoulder and said: "The reason why Ji Jie defeated you many times is because he didn't play according to common sense. He can do this, why can't you? I have confidence in General Meng I will definitely return in triumph!"
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for your kind words!"
…
Ji Jie and Zhi Du fought for no less than thirty rounds, and they were still neck and neck. The soldiers on both sides cheered for their general at the top of their lungs. The shouts became louder and louder. They were more excited than the two fighting men.
"when……"
This time, after their weapons collided, they did not separate immediately, but began to use their strength.
Barbarian King Zhidu gritted his teeth and suggested: "Ji Jie, do you dare to let your subordinates compete with my barbarian soldiers? I guarantee that your Zhou army is no match!"
"Nonsense!" Ji Jie said tit for tat: "Don't brag too much, let's start a showdown. Your people are mainly infantry, and mine are all cavalry. Don't say I'm taking advantage of you. Give you a moment." Array in time of the clock!"
"No need, you and I will return to the formation, and you can launch the charge. I will let you see the power of my barbarian soldiers!" Zhi Du took back his spear.
Ji Jie also took back his weapons, and the two of them returned to their formations.
"Xiong Ben, I will leave you two hundred personal guards to escort you back to the city!" Ji Jie confessed, and then said loudly: "Warriors of the Great Zhou Dynasty, follow me to attack the barbarian army formation and kill!"
"Kill!" Twenty thousand people shouted in unison.
The barbarian soldiers also started shouting. Although they were not as orderly as the Zhou army, they were still very powerful.
Xiong Ben was well aware of his physical condition. The toxins had not been completely eliminated and he could not meet the requirements for continued fighting. He returned to Bajun City under the escort of two hundred personal guards.
Ji Jie took the lead and led the cavalry to form a sagittal formation, like a sharp knife inserted into the barbarian formation.
"Ding dong... click..."
The two sides fell into a melee, and slightly strange sounds came and went. Ji Jie quickly realized a serious problem: it was difficult for Zhou Jun's swords and spears to penetrate the barbarian soldiers' rattan armor, and he had to use all his strength to penetrate the spears. The enemy's body, as for weapons such as knives and axes, rarely cause damage to them!
Damn, this rattan is really domineering.
"Focus on attacking the parts of the enemy's body that are not covered by the vine armor!" Ji Jie pierced the throat of an enemy with a spear and shouted: "Don't chop at their vine armor, save your energy!"
The battlefield was in chaos. Although Ji Jie shouted as loud as he could, only some people around him could be heard.
Fortunately, the metal armor of the Zhou army was not a vegetarian, but it was still not as good as the rattan armor of the barbarians. It was light and could offset the damage caused by blunt weapons to the body. Coupled with the numerical advantage, they quickly gained the upper hand.
"Ji Jie, you underestimate my barbarian soldiers too much. You will die without a burial today, hahaha!" Zhidu laughed arrogantly, and swung his spear across the throats of the two Zhou soldiers.
"Keep rushing, rush!" Ji Jie didn't care so much and continued to rush forward.
With the help of the impact of the horses, the Zhou army successfully broke the barbarian soldiers into two sections and got behind the enemy. Zhi Du was not worried at all, because the Zhou army's casualties were far greater than those on his side.
"Prepare the thunderbolts!" Ji Jie ordered and sounded a signal flare at the same time.
In Bajun City, the artillery commander saw the signal flares soaring into the sky and shouted: "All artillerymen listen to the order, target the barbarians, prepare to fire a volley! Listen to my command and fire!"
Thunderbolt bombs and sky-shaking artillery shells arrived at the same time, exploding in the barbarian formation.
"Damn it, I don't believe you can withstand the bombardment!" Ji Jie looked at everything in front of him cheerfully, but he suddenly became stunned and the expression on his face turned into a bitter smile.
