The two sides chased each other and soon reached the mouth of a valley.
Arrows shot from behind from time to time, and while the soldiers of the Qin army were running for their lives, some people screamed and fell to the ground from time to time.
Peng Shuang did not abandon the people, and they also risked their lives to follow him. The general who had called him earlier stopped and said seriously: "General, go first! The last general is behind!"
"No! Let's go together!" Peng Shuang refused directly.
"General!" The general was very anxious.
"This is a military order!" Peng Shuang said in a shocked voice, his tone unquestionable.
In such a critical situation, as a general, he did not care about his own life. The eyes of the surviving soldiers were red, and the general's nose was sore. Just when he was about to say something else, Peng Shuang said decisively: "Let's go!"
Everyone followed behind him, but as soon as they entered the valley, countless spiritual troops were already standing on the mountains on both sides. With the sound of their armors clashing, they all set up their bows and arrows, pointing straight down.
A spiritual general stood on a high place, looked up and smiled, and said: "Peng Shuang! Today you have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth! I advise you to dismount immediately and be bound, kneel down and come down! I will protect you. No loss of title!”
"Insult me!!" Peng Shuang was furious, riding a war horse and pointing his sword upward.
"Hmph! If you don't eat the toast, you will have to drink wine as a penalty and shoot an arrow!" Lingjiang's face turned cold and he said no more.
As he waved his hand, arrows poured down like rain.
Amidst the clanging sound, the soldiers of the Qin army waved their swords wildly to block the arrows, but in the same way, many people were nailed into hedgehogs and howled one after another.
"Quick! Protect the general!" the general shouted.
Before, Peng Shuang did not abandon everyone, but now at the critical moment of life and death, all the soldiers did not say a word, surrounded him, protected him in the middle, and began to block and rush out.
Arrows shot continuously from above, mixed with gravel and other objects. The soldiers of the Qin army were walking and dying along the way. Before long, most of the remaining thousand soldiers were dead.
If this continues, Peng Shuang and others will be responsible for this place.
Seeing his comrades fall to the ground one by one, Peng Shuang brandished his sword and roared angrily: "Su Yi harmed me! Su Yi harmed me——"
There are too many random arrows! After one round, there was another round, without stopping at all.
Peng Shuang, who had been injured in a fierce battle, was at the end of his strength no matter how brave he was.
Blocking the vital points above his head and chest, a cold arrow hit him with a pop.
Then another arrow.
Looking at the situation below, the spirit general responsible for the ambush in advance couldn't help but laugh again.
But at this moment, there was a sudden movement in the valley road ahead. Immediately afterwards, a large number of black armored and red tassels ran in quickly with vertical shields on their backs, aiming to meet Peng Shuang.
Seeing this, Peng Shuang's eyes suddenly stared: "Reinforcements are coming! Our reinforcements are coming! Brothers, charge!"
Already desperate, the few remaining Qin soldiers suddenly beamed with joy and swung their swords even more urgently.
On the mountain ridge, General Ling's heart tightened, and there was a trace of panic on his face, and he ordered repeatedly: "Quick! Shoot the arrow quickly!"
Although the random arrows were getting denser and denser, the responding Qin troops had already gathered together, forming a huge protective circle with their vertical shields. After receiving Peng Shuang's arrows, they quickly retreated without stopping.
"We can't let them run away! Quick! Shoot the arrow quickly!!" Ling Jiang was furious.
But in this situation, the ambush on both sides could no longer stop them.
There is no doubt that this was sent by Xiao Yuan. This place is not far from the Jialing front. Based on the military intelligence of the Qin army, this action will naturally take place.
After a while, the Qin army responsible for the response successfully withdrew from the ambush site.
At this time, Peng Shuang was not only hit by two or three arrows in his body, but also suffered many battle wounds on his horse. Seeing his own army, his tense nerves relaxed and he fell off his horse.
"General Peng." Chen Hui, the responding general, quickly stepped forward to support him.
"General Chen." Peng Shuang grabbed his arm, held on and said, "Tell the king, Su Yi harmed me, Su Yi harmed me..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately passed out.
oops! When Chen Hui saw this, he was so frightened that his liver and gallbladder burst. He quickly ordered: "Quick! Send General Peng back to the camp!"
Su Yi and Peng Shuang have similar military ranks, one is the commander-in-chief and the other is the general.
Often one is laying out the plan, while the other is leading the troops in battle and charging into battle.
But Su Yi would always provoke and trick Peng Shuang from time to time in order to win the overall victory.
This time, it's no exception.
What's more important is that every time this commander is ordered to go on an expedition, he has to ask Xiao Yuan to transfer Peng Shuang over.
It can be seen that Peng Shuang was important to the war. In other words, without this general, Su Yi would sometimes be unable to complete good strategic deployments.
After receiving the response, Chen Hui returned directly to the main camp without stopping too much.
Not long after, Huang Zu's army also pursued Gudao.
Seeing him, the spirit of ambush lowered his head, clasped his fists and said, "Shuai Huang, the last general is incompetent and let Peng Shuang run away."
The other party has a supporting force, so you can't blame him. Huang Zu also waved his hand, frowned and said: "Hateful!"
General Ling said quickly: "But don't worry, Marshal Huang, there are only a few dozen people left in Peng Shuang's group, and he himself was hit by several arrows and will die soon."
"I hope so." Huang Zu took a deep breath, his eyes even more worried, because he knew clearly that he was being tricked away from the mountain by Su Yi.
After squinting his eyes slightly, he said decisively: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. It is too close to King Qin's main force. Let's retreat first."
The Ling Army mobilized 400,000 troops for nearly two months of encirclement and suppression. In the end, although 20,000 troops were eliminated and General Peng Shuang was seriously injured, Su Yi's main force jumped out of the battle circle and had already begun to penetrate deep alone.
the other side.
After returning to the main camp, the military doctor arrived immediately and began to treat Peng Shuang.
The latter was still in a coma, lying on the bed. There were two arrows in the copper basin, and the water inside had already been dyed red.
Xiao Yuan was here. When the military doctor finished his work, he couldn't help but ask: "How is General Peng Shuang? Is he in danger?"
The military doctor shook his head and sighed: "Your Majesty, if such an arrow wound were placed on an ordinary person, I'm afraid he would have been killed long ago. General Peng Shuang is also a god. It's just that we have to wait and see tonight for the specific situation."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuan couldn't help but trembled in his heart. He looked at Peng Shuang on the hospital bed and said, holding back his sorrow: "Take good care of General Peng. If General Peng wakes up, he will notify me as soon as possible."
"Yes." The military doctor quickly saluted and accepted the order.
Peng Shuang was the first general to follow him. He had been a soldier all his life and had experienced hundreds of battles. In private, he was a brother to Xiao Yuan!
One can imagine Xiao Yuan's worried mood.
the next day.
After being notified by the military doctor, Xiao Yuan hurried over.
At this time, Peng Shuang had woken up. When he saw him, it was more like he had found someone to complain to, and he was about to go and salute him.
"Don't move rashly." Xiao Yuan quickly supported him.
Peng Shuang grabbed his arm and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, Su Yi harmed me, Su Yi harmed me..."
