Sun Youdao is extremely tenacious and has no intention of giving up even when he is in trouble. He believed that Qin's army had all moved to the front to encircle Tianhe, and it was impossible for there to be any army in the camp.
As long as Sun Youdao breaks out of the burning camp, he will have a chance to leave.
"Kill out."
Sun Youdao ordered again.
When Sun Youdao rushed forward, the personal guards around him and the other generals rushed to the front.
Everyone has rushed out of the camp.
Large numbers of people still have fighting spirit on their faces. Even these Qi soldiers were still angry and wanted to defeat the Qin army in one battle after rushing out.
They want revenge.
Outside the camp, Bai Cejun was wearing armor and looked calm. Behind him, the soldiers formed an orderly formation.
However, these infantrymen did not move rashly, only the archers in formation continued to shoot arrows. Arrows rained down, falling inside and outside the camp, reaping the lives of Qi soldiers. When Bai Cejun found a large number of Qi soldiers rushing out of the camp, he said lightly: "Arrowmen, step forward and release arrows."
Five hundred crossbowmen came forward, with 250 people in the front row and 250 people in the back row, staggered forward and backward.
In this way, the crossbow is more lethal.
call out! call out! !
Five hundred crossbow arrows flashing with cold light were quickly shot out.
Crossbows are different from bows and arrows. Bows and arrows are cheaper to make and easier to shoot on a large scale, but they are less lethal. Crossbow arrows are different. The cost of making crossbow arrows is more expensive, but their power is unparalleled. Moreover, the crossbow arrows advance in a straight line and have stronger penetrating power.
Five hundred crossbow arrows flew through the air, and in a blink of an eye they were in front of the Qi soldiers who had just rushed out of the camp.
Phew! Phew!
Arrows shot through the bodies of Qi soldiers, and even one crossbow arrow killed two in a row, and even penetrated directly through the bodies of three Qi soldiers.
Corpses fell to the ground one after another.
The personal guards around Sun Youdao suffered heavy losses, including five casualties one after another. Sun Youdao looked around and found that more than half of the Qi soldiers who rushed at the front were killed, causing heavy casualties.
Sun Youdao's heart sank.
Does he still have a chance to counterattack?
Sun Youdao looked at the dark Qin army formation outside again, feeling even more worried in his heart. He originally thought that this surprise attack would be easy and smooth, but he did not expect that he would be in such a difficult predicament. Sun Youdao originally wanted to counterattack the Qin army, but at this moment, he put away all thoughts of counterattack.
The strength of the Qin army was at least five to six thousand. He faced so many Qin troops blocking him, so it would be great if he could escape.
Simply, I didn't see Qin's cavalry.
As long as he breaks out, he can escape. This is his only chance to survive.
"Break through and retreat directly."
Sun Youdao directly changed his strategy and shouted: "Everyone separate, avoid the shooting of bows and crossbows from both sides, and break out. Everyone, break out quickly."
One by one, the Qi soldiers quickly changed directions.
Those who rushed out of the camp went to the left and right sides to break out individually.
When Bai Cejun saw the Qi soldiers leaving on both wings, a sneer appeared on his lips, and the expression on his old face was even colder. Qi's troops wanted to break out from both sides, but they were too naive.
The crossbows are still going on.
Bows and arrows are also harvesting the lives of soldiers inside and outside.
Even Bai Cejun here did not order the deployment of troops to attack. He continued to stare at the phalanx of bows and arrows and crossbows. Under continuous shooting, more and more Qi soldiers were killed.
Sun Youdao led his men to break through the encirclement, and had already circled to the left wing, and were out of the range of bow and arrow shooting.
At this moment, Sun Youdao breathed a sigh of relief and became happy.
He finally escaped.
"Speed up, speed up the evacuation."
Sun Youdao did not dare to delay and continued to evacuate with his people. They were only some distance away, less than a thousand steps away, when they saw the rumble of horse hooves coming from the official road in the distance.
A group of Qin army cavalry rushed towards them.
More than a thousand Qin army cavalry were placed on the battlefield and had little effect. But at this moment, the sudden appearance of more than a thousand Qin army cavalry seemed to be reaping the consequences of life, making Sun Youdao's heart feel colder than ever before.
It turns out that the Qin army’s trump card is here.
The Qin army actually had cavalry to block the attack.
"Kill out."
Sun Youdao ordered again.
The few soldiers under his command continued to charge forward, but in the blink of an eye, the cavalry swept in. A large number of Qin cavalry swamped Sun Youdao and his party, and swords fell down, bringing with them a shower of blood.
The Qi soldiers who faced each other and rushed to the front were killed one after another without exception.
The personal guards around Sun Youdao were also killed one after another. The Qin army's cavalry broke through the defense line formed by the guards, reached in front of Sun Youdao, and killed him with a single blow.
Sun Youdao raised his sword to block, but a knife slashed down from behind.
Bah!
The blade broke through the armor and forced into the skin. Blood splattered, Sun Youdao gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his back, struggled to swing away the fallen blade, and wanted to break out of the encirclement. The moment he swung the sword with all his strength, his chest opened wide.
A knife was cut out of the air.
The sharp blade flashed a cold light in the air and scratched Sun Youdao's neck.
puff!
Blood splattered.
Sun Youdao's throat was cut, and a look of pain appeared on his face. He opened his mouth to speak, but after his throat was broken, his voice was a whoosh, and he could not speak. In the blink of an eye, endless darkness swept over, and Sun Youdao's eyes turned completely dark.
thump!
Sun Youdao's body fell off the horse and fell directly to the ground.
Sun Youdao was killed directly.
"Kill, kill all the dog thieves in Qi."
The generals leading the Qin army shouted, and a group of cavalry went back and forth to kill all Qi soldiers who escaped. Even if someone escaped temporarily, he would be caught up and killed by the cavalry in the blink of an eye.
The camp was already burning into a sea of fire.
Amidst the fire, screams could be heard.
In such a huge camp, when the sea of fire hits, many people will always be trapped in it and unable to escape, so that they will be burned by the fire. However, many people who fled to the gate of the camp were shot by bows, arrows and crossbows, causing numerous casualties again.
Even if they escape, there will still be cavalry to kill them.
This is a triple kill.
The first is the burning of fire, the second is the shooting of bows and arrows, and the third is the killing of cavalry.
Under such a premise, all Qi soldiers were defeated. Even the infantry around Bai Cejun had not yet been put to use. You must know that Lin Feng left with the army and left 8,000 elite troops for Bai Ce's army, including 7,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry.
In addition to the 1,000 men left by Bai Cejun in the camp to pretend to retreat, there were 6,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry outside.
With such a scale, Sun Youdao's military strength was completely wiped out by calculated calculations but not by accident.
Bai Cejun continued to wait, and the fighting continued for another quarter of an hour. All the soldiers of Qi who escaped were killed.
Ying Yuqian came to Bai Cejun from behind and said with a smile: "Shuai Bai, we won this step. The next step depends on Xun Peng."
Bai Cejun smiled and said: "Xun Peng has eight thousand troops, which is enough to win in one battle. But since we have won, we can send people to help Xun Peng. I estimate that Xun Peng's location will almost trigger a war."
Ying Yuqian nodded, looking forward to it.
Bai Cejun quickly made arrangements. He first arranged for sentries to go to the front line and pass on the news of the complete annihilation of Qi soldiers to Lin Feng. Then, the generals responsible for leading the troops were arranged to lead a thousand cavalry and five thousand infantry to attack the Qi camp.
Bai Ce's army left two thousand men behind and began to clear the battlefield around the camp.
