At the end of Qin, I became a son of the plane

Chapter 61, the end of the road

The Qin army ran all the way to Xiang County for two hours, but soon the initial excitement was over, physical fatigue came, and they had to slow down.

"General, look behind you!" Tan Ma shouted.

Bai Meng looked at the back of the team and saw an earth dragon moving quickly towards them.

Bai Meng gritted his teeth and said, "Rebellious cavalry!"

Bai Meng is not afraid of the rebel cavalry. He is confident that his infantry phalanx cannot be broken by the rebel cavalry, but it is very disgusting for the rebels to use cavalry to hold them back.

It was obviously a journey of less than 200 miles, but it was dragged by the rebel cavalry for two days, and it was not even halfway through.

He wanted to use his infantry phalanx to completely eliminate the rebel cavalry, but he also knew that this was impossible. The rebel leader Xu Fan was too cunning, and the rebel cavalry did not charge the formation, but shot cold arrows through his own phalanx. Even though he was dragging his own army, there was nothing he could do.

"The army is gathering, spears are facing the enemy!" Bai Meng said fiercely.

It was impossible to ignore it completely. That would be allowing the rebel cavalry to destroy his own army. He could only order the army to gather into formation.

When the Qin army heard this order, the Qin army, which was originally like a long dragon, formed five giant spear phalanxes in units of a thousand people.

Although there is no need to worry about this formation, the cavalry will collide, but if you want to march quickly, don't think about it. The speed of the Qin Army's new army has dropped by more than 10 times, and you still have to worry about the enemy's cavalry in the rear.

Xu Fan led 500 cavalrymen and didn't care when they saw the Qin army gathering in the square formation. Instead, he led the cavalry to cross the Qin army from the rear left and rush to the front of the Qin army. Instead, he used his bows and arrows to shoot at the Qin army's formation randomly. Then leave quickly.

"Puff, puff, puff" 500 long arrows shot into the Qin army's forward like raindrops, and the sound of arrow clusters entering the body was dull and harsh.

Dozens of unlucky ones in the phalanx were shot by long arrows. Among them, a dozen of the most unlucky ones were hit in vital parts and fell to the ground.

Bai Meng said angrily: "The crossbowmen counterattack!"

"Boom, boom, boom!" The crossbowmen, who were protected by the spearmen at the core, also fought back at the rebel cavalry, shooting hundreds of long arrows. Unfortunately, the rebel cavalry ran too fast, and the rebel cavalry escaped. It was within the range of the Qin army's crossbows.

Next is Bai Meng's most disgusting harassment tactic. The rebel cavalry is divided into multiple groups and has been wandering out of the range of the Qin army's crossbows. They find the rear and flanks and immediately launch a wave of cold arrows. In this case, Bai Meng The army can only be ordered to form a circle. Such a formation can effectively reduce the harassment of cavalry, but it is a luxury to hope to advance.

The two sides fought like this until noon. Xu Fan led the cavalry to have lunch and rest, and the Qin army also consumed their little energy in such a tiring confrontation.

Although Bai Meng also knew that his soldiers were tired, he could only drive the tired soldiers to continue marching.

But this time the Qin army marched for less than an hour.

The sound of war drums resounding throughout the world came from behind, and the sound became louder and louder.

Qin Jun looked to the rear and found that the smoke behind him was like an earth dragon, stretching for more than ten miles.

Captain Wei Jing saw the smoke and said in despair: "The rebels have assembled at least about 2 troops."

Although this number is not high, for the Qin army at this time, it is already an invincible enemy.

Bai Meng shouted: "Speed ​​up the march."

But at this moment, the loud horn horn sound suddenly appeared in front of the army, and the sound of thousands of horses galloping quickly sounded.

The soldiers of the Qin army watched the rebel cavalry coming from the front, blocking their way forward. "We are surrounded!" Qin soldiers shouted in despair.

Bai Meng shouted: "Form up and face the enemy in a circular formation!"

Under the command of Bai Meng, the Qin soldiers formed a circular formation with shields for defense and all their spears pointing outwards, like an extremely huge hedgehog.

The cavalry commanded by Xu Fan did not rush up immediately, and then waited for the rebel infantry in the rear to slowly approach, 5 miles, 1 mile, and finally completely surrounded the Qin army step by step.

At this time, Xu Fan stepped out and shouted to the Qin army: "Brothers from Chen County, you have run out of ammunition and food. Surrender. Surrender now, and our rebels promise not to kill you."

Bai Meng shouted with a hint of panic: "Don't listen to the enemy's nonsense. These rebels are murderers. They like hanging people the most."

Xu Fan laughed loudly when he heard this and said: "Although our rebels have hanged many people, these people are corrupt officials who deserved their punishment and officers who pursued our rebels. I dare to swear to Taiyi God that our rebels have not hanged them." To kill an innocent person, let alone an ordinary soldier, the minimum standard for hanging someone here is over 100 generals, and ordinary soldiers cannot enjoy this treatment."

Xu Fan's words gave many Qin soldiers a sense of security.

Xu Fan continued: "Most of you are from Chen County, and we are all from the same hometown. The thousands of wounded soldiers you left behind in Qixian County were treated by our rebel army. Our rebel army even treated wounded soldiers, so how could we kill them?" If you, Chen Jun people, don’t fight Chen Jun people, as long as you put down your weapons, I can guarantee that you will be let go home.”

Most of the Chenjun soldiers were shaken when they heard that they had returned home. They no longer wanted to fight.

Bai Meng could no longer tolerate Xu Fan continuing to talk. If he continued talking, the entire army would collapse.

He shouted: "Fire the arrow!"

But the crossbowmen didn't listen to his orders at all at this time. They were running out of ammunition and food. Everyone really didn't want to fight, especially the soldiers from Chen County.

Bai Meng grabbed the crossbow and shot an arrow at Xu Fan.

But Xu Fan stood far away and was well prepared, so the arrow didn't hit him at all.

Xu Fan rode back to the formation and shouted at the same time: "I will not kill anyone who drops his weapon!"

Then he commanded his rebel army: "Attack the entire army!"

"Kill!" The rebel cavalry and 1.5 rebel infantry all surrounded and killed the remaining Qin army.

"Ding, ding, ding!" A large number of soldiers from Chen County dropped their spears and shouted: "Don't kill me, I am from Chen County. Don't fight your own people!"

With these surrendered soldiers, the Qin army's circular formation completely collapsed, and more and more soldiers from Chen County surrendered.

Bai Meng could only desperately gather a group of Guanzhong soldiers to break out of the siege.

But Xu Fan led the rebel cavalry to pursue Bai Meng. Xu Fan himself took the lead and charged at the front. He pierced Bai Meng's body with the spear in his hand. Then he threw the body in front of the fleeing soldiers and shouted: "Surrender, don't kill!"

These soldiers were still a little hesitant. They were from Guanzhong and were worried about being massacred by the rebels.

However, the cavalry following Xu Fan's rear also surrounded and killed hundreds of Qin troops who did not want to surrender. The Qin troops were demoralized by the killings, and the last few Qin troops who resisted also dropped their weapons.

At this point, the rebel army wiped out 5000 Qin troops with less than a hundred casualties, and Chen County completely lost its mobile force.
