When Liu Bang's 70,000-strong army was rushing forward desperately, Li Xin led 3,000 knights to the flanks. Zhou Bo immediately ordered the archers to shoot.
Unexpectedly, thousands of cavalrymen led by Li Xin pressed their bodies against the horse's neck, held their crossbows against the horse's body and shot at the approaching Liu Bang archers.
"咻咻咻咻咻..."
"咻咻咻咻咻..."
Arrows from the two armies came back and forth, and each suffered losses, but the cavalry led by Li Xin all stayed close to the horses. Few knights were hit by arrows, but many horses were hit by arrows. Fortunately, half of the horses were equipped with iron armor.
, the overall loss is not very big
But Liu Bangjun's archers did not feel comfortable. They faced the Qin army's arrow rain without better protection. One after another people fell to the ground.
After withstanding three waves of arrows, Li Xin's cavalry just came into contact with Liu Bang's army.
Such well-equipped elite cavalry broke into the infantry... The scene was like a group of tigers breaking into a flock of sheep.
Nearly three thousand fine cavalry under the leadership of Li Xin were like sharp arrows, splitting Liu Bang's 70,000 army into two at high speed, stopping the momentum of his army from rushing forward.
In less than a minute, Liu Bang's army suffered heavy losses. Seven to eight thousand soldiers were killed on the spot by this group of cavalry.
Li Xin was holding a long halberd and wearing golden armor and a red cloak. He was like a god descending to earth. As he waved his halberd, two or three soldiers in red fell into a pool of blood...
So fierce! Thousands of black-armored knights behind them were instantly inspired to be brave when they saw how fierce their general was. They all waved their swords with blood-red eyes and charged forward without hesitation towards the place where the enemy troops were most concentrated.
It seems that Qin Knight no longer knows what death is, and all he sees in his eyes is killing...
However, Liu Bang's 70,000-strong army was defeated in front of this elite and brave cavalry team of less than 3,000 cavalry...
"Ahhhh..."
"Ahhhh..."
.......
Liu Bang's army was already in chaos, and he was trying to think of a way to surround and eat the Qin cavalry that had rushed into the army, but he didn't expect that there were shouts of killing coming from all directions.
Looking around, I saw countless dark Qin troops rushing out from the two wings of the army. Upon closer inspection, they turned out to be no less than fifty or sixty thousand.
In a few breaths, the Qin army infantry on both wings were close to Liu Bang's army, threatening to surround it.
At this time, Hu Qing, the surrendering army who was behind Liu Bang's army, saw that the time had come and shouted: "Soldiers of the Qin army, God bless our great Qin! General Li Xin has sent a large army to surround Liu Bang. We will not help Qin at this time.
When?"
The more than 10,000 Qin troops who had surrendered to Liu Bang changed their expressions after hearing this. Hearing what Hu Qing meant, they had just surrendered to Liu Bang in the morning, but they were going to rebel again this afternoon?
Hu Qing continued to shout: "Listen to my order! Wrap your left arm with a strip of cloth to distinguish Liu Bang's army, and follow me to kill all the enemy troops!!"
As he spoke, Hu Qing drew out his sword, cut off a piece of his robe, and wrapped it around his left arm.
Then he turned around and looked at the surrendering troops. When the surrendering troops saw that the general said they would rebel, they dared to delay. They gritted their teeth and cut off their robes and tied them to their left arms.
After such an operation, although Jiang Jun was wearing the same clothes as Liu Bangjun, he was clearly distinguishable and would not have killed the wrong person.
But the real Liu Bangjun was frightened by the sudden appearance of tens of thousands of Qin troops at this moment, and did not react at all to Hu Qing's surrender operation from behind.
Hu Qing shouted: "Kill!! Cooperate with my main Qin army to kill all the bandits!!!"
Once again, he rushed into the red camp at the head of the team, slashing anyone who had no scarf on his left arm. In two breaths, five or six people were slashed to the ground by Hu Qing.
After looking at the Jiangjun troops behind them, their irritated eyes began to turn red. They all raised their spears and swords and charged towards the surrounding Liu Bang troops, killing everyone on sight...
At this time, Liu Bang, Xiao He, Zhang Liang and others who were in front of the army were all covered in cold sweat. In this situation, how could his uncle's Qin army only have 70,000 or 80,000 people? There might be more than 100,000 people.
"Report...Qin Fu's troops on both wings of our army are already fighting with our army!"
Liu Bang wiped the sweat from his head and said, "Approximately how many people are there?"
"Report to the lord! It is estimated that there are more than 50,000 troops!"
After hearing this, Liu Bang sat down on the ground.
"Report...Lord, Hu Qing's surrendered troops in the rear suddenly counterattacked and are heading towards the front of our army!"
"What? Hu Qing rebelled too?"
Zhang Liang and Xiao He were horrified when they heard this, and only now did they finally realize that everything had been tricked... Hu Qing surrendered, He Yutai withdrew his troops, and led Liu Bang's entire army into the pass to ambush...
A few people just felt dizzy. They didn't expect that they would get through the border all the way and plot against each other. They didn't expect that they would fall under Xianyang City...
"Report... my lord, the Qin army on both wings and the interrogation army in the rear have completely surrounded our army. Our army has suffered heavy losses. The Qin army's cavalry is charging towards the lord..."
Liu Bang was sitting on the ground, his heartbeat quickening, and he quickly stood up. Nothing was more important than his own life.
Liu Bang came to Zhang Liang's counselors and said in a deep voice: "Zifang, Xiao He, we'd better retreat. The situation is over. If we don't leave, I'm afraid all of us will have to stay here."
Xiao He stomped his feet unwillingly: "My lord, the 20,000 cavalry led by Cao Shen are still in front. If Cao Shen annihilates the Qin army he encounters and turns around, our army may not be able to fight! At this time, lord, retreat, then I
The morale of the army is in chaos, can my lord bear to see the soldiers sacrificed in vain?"
Liu Bang quit and roared: "The Qin army in the pass is too cunning. Do you think they didn't count Cao Shen's 20,000 cavalry? I'm afraid it's more dangerous than good... wu wu wu..."
As he spoke, Liu Bang wiped the corners of his eyes and couldn't help crying.
Zhang Liang ignored the two of them and stood on the carriage looking at the messy battle situation behind them.
It's okay if you don't look at it, but when you look at it, you can see that the Qin army and the surrender army on the left and right are like three sickles, quickly harvesting their own army.
As for the three thousand Qin cavalry who had just been surrounded by Liu Bang's army, when the three Qin armies completely surrounded Liu Bang's army, the pressure was greatly reduced!
The Qin cavalry was like a poisonous snake in its belly, quickly emptying Liu Bang's army...
It's terrible. This is completely a one-sided war. In less than an hour, I'm afraid that all the 50,000-strong army led by Liu Bang will be wiped out.
Zhang Liang's mind was spinning rapidly, and suddenly his eyes flashed, and he came to Liu Bang and others, and said calmly: "Master, Brother Xiao, today's situation is the ovary. I miscalculated. I should not let the master rush without understanding the situation."
Enter the customs."
"The situation is critical now. The way for the army to retreat has been blocked. My lord, Brother Xiao, please quickly bring a cavalry to break through. As soon as you reach Aoguan, return to the land of Bashu and fight the Qin army again one day.
..”
Liu Bang stepped forward and took Zhang Liang's arms with both hands and said: "Good brother, what's the use of talking about this now? It's not your idea to march into Guanzhong. Let's go together, leaving the green mountains behind. When I go back, we can organize the drum again.
, fight with the Qin army again in the future!"
Zhang Liang opened Liu Bang's hands, turned sideways and sighed: "My lord, I can't leave. If I leave, the will of our army will instantly collapse, and then it will be even more difficult for my lord to escape from Guanzhong."
"I will lead the remaining troops to entangle the Qin army and give the lord time to escape..."
