What's more terrible is that the two consecutive heavy sword attacks caused Sima Cuo, who raised his sword to defend himself, to be in pain. This is true for General Sima, let alone others.
Without any time to think, Sima Cuo used his hands again to push back the two long knives. At the same time, the long sword swept across, forcing the three Zhao soldiers in front of him to retreat.
But the fatal will never let someone go like this: just after forcing three Zhao soldiers back, five more Zhao soldiers surrounded them.
Sima Cuo then looked around and found that the Qin army that could still fight on the horses only had about thirty or forty people left, and almost everyone had two or three Zhao troops besieging them in front of them. , there were as many as ten people in front of him. Obviously, he was too brave and was besieged by the Zhao army.
The Zhao army's fighting skills were not inferior to the Qin army, and with the help of stirrups, their strength was far superior to the Qin army. Now that the Qin army has reduced its numbers, the Zhao army has even formed a siege on the Qin army.
Although the sound of swords clashing "dang, dang, dang" is endless, everyone knows that this battle has lost its suspense. In other words, the moment the Qin army's cavalry raised their hands to block, there was no longer any suspense in this battle.
Even earlier, when Zhao soldiers accurately shot hundreds of Qin soldiers with bows and arrows from 300 paces away, and the Qin army gained nothing, the battle ended in suspense. Of course, from Zhao Kuo's point of view, from the moment he learned about the Qin Army's northward movement, the Qin Army's operation was doomed to fail.
The most deadly thing about the sharp arrow formation is the extremely sharp arrows! This is true for the enemy, and it is true for yourself.
If you can't block this sharp arrow, your enemy will be pierced and slaughtered; if you can't block it, you will be killed and surrounded.
How could Sima Cuo, a veteran of the battlefield, not know this truth? ! How could even the elite soldiers of the Qin army, who had experienced hundreds of battles, not know the result? It's just that they are unwilling to give up. Even if there is only a slight possibility, they will try their best for this, even if they pay for it with their lives.
retreat? From the moment the front arrow formation was formed, everyone understood that there was no longer an option to retreat. Because of the sharp arrow array, although it is powerful in attack, it is weak in defense. It is also a drag on the escape route. Facing Zhao Jun's flying geese formation, there is no way to escape.
Unfortunately, that rare opportunity did not come to the Qin army.
The Zhao army is not only powerful in long-range combat, but even stronger in close combat. Almost only warriors with a length of more than 10 years can withstand the attack of a Zhao army. That's the best among sharp men! For the ordinary Qin army, he could be a hundred generals with less words!
"Where did Zhao Kuo get such a powerful army?" Sima Cuo, who had finally repelled several Zhao soldiers, was completely confused.
"Or maybe Zhao Kuo has some secret weapon in this cavalry? Even with such a powerful team, there shouldn't be so many people! You know, the Qin army is only a thousand warriors. There are only more than a hundred of them, so where did the Zhao army get so many soldiers with such strong martial arts skills and strength?" Sima Cuo thought while waving the long sword in his hand.
Suddenly, there was only a "pop" sound, and then, a large ball of blood sprayed straight on Sima Cuo's face.
That was the sharp soldier beside him, who blocked Sergeant Zhao's fatal blow for himself.
The blood with Rui Shi's body temperature was like a bucket of ice water, which chilled Sima Cuo's heart.
"This is not the time to think about these things!" Sima Cuo blocked another sneak attack from Zhao Jun and calmed down a little.
I took the time to take a look at the battlefield at this time. The situation on the left was the least optimistic. I was about to be completely surrounded by Zhao Jun and the entire army was wiped out. The front battlefield was also not optimistic. I had been passively beaten, and now I was turning around. The space left was gradually reduced, and Zhao Jun seemed to be deliberately slowing down the pace. He was probably waiting for the battle on the left to end before encircling our army on the front.
Although the situation on the remaining right wing, that is, the area where you are located, is also very bad and passive, perhaps because of your own existence, the situation is actually the best among the three roads, at least it has not been completely wiped out for the time being. danger.
But once the left and center lines fall one after another, how long can I hold on? ! Six hundred warriors, what's left now
, already less than a quarter.
Defeated, already defeated! The remaining question is how to end this painful battle!
surrender? That's impossible, Qin has no generals who surrendered! It is impossible for him to be the Qin general who surrendered, and the six hundred warriors under his command would not be willing to lay down their weapons! Even with Zhao Kuo's character, he would not accept any surrender at all!
rush ahead? Looking at Zhao Kuo who was resting in the distance, Sima Cuo felt a deep sense of powerlessness. Man said that he could no longer break through the hundreds of Zhao troops in front of him. Even if he forced his way through and reached Zhao Kuo's side, he didn't know what secret weapons Zhao Kuo had waiting for him. He didn't even need any secret weapons. As long as he let the frontal crossbows, which had slowed down, come back to support, there was nothing he could do.
retreat? Perhaps it is the best and only choice under the current situation.
Especially the equipment of Zhao Jun, especially the giant man who is as invulnerable as an iron tower, and the news that the bow and arrow can shoot over 300 steps on the galloping horse, etc., are obviously very important. If this news can be obtained Taking it back to Xianyang is considered to be a worthwhile trip.
Of course, Sima Cuo knew that these were just his words of comfort. What the annihilation of the six hundred warriors meant to the Qin State, he knew very well that although this information was also precious, it would eventually be revealed to the world. , and even with the help of Black Ice Platform, it doesn’t take much time to know a thing or two. But these six hundred warriors cannot be cultivated overnight.
But no matter what, retreat may be the best option.
But under the current situation, the formation has been completely disrupted, and there is no barrier for retreat. The only problem is that the Zhao army on the opposite side is also a mediocre cavalry, and there are bows and arrows under his command that can shoot three hundred steps. Can the Rui warriors really outrun it?
Even if I stay to stop the Zhao army, I am afraid that with my own ability, I am lucky to be able to stop ten Zhao soldiers. The rest... Now the two armies are fighting together anxiously?
Moreover, but, if you lose, you are defeated, so you have to admit it! Only if you dare to admit defeat can you fight the next battle successfully!
No matter what, even if only one person can get Xianyang back, it is still a profit.
Immediately, Sima Cuo was about to order the entire army to retreat, but he didn't want to...
