Daqin: You were asked to build the Great Wall and you destroyed the Huns?

Chapter 220 Da Qin’s horse must be taken back!

Snowflakes were flying, and the day was uneventful.

As night approached, a shout suddenly rang out in the Qiang camp.

"Report!"

"Twenty thousand people in the Qin army's camp left under cover of night."

"The direction is exactly Jade Valley."

The Qiang people in the camp became excited almost immediately.

The scout continued.

"They seemed to want to avoid our detection. They traveled lightly and lightly. Instead of entering from the west side of the valley, they took a detour to the southeast and climbed up the mountain and entered the valley from another direction!"

Hearing this, Chief Liu couldn't help but smile while stroking his beard.

"Sure enough!"

Yuan Jian also narrowed his eyes.

After deciding on this plan last night, Yuan Jian ordered a big horse-breeding clan to move the horses there.

And deliberately left some traces.

I thought it might take a day or two, but I didn't expect the Qin people's scouts to be so efficient. They immediately discovered the valley dozens of miles away from them.

"Are the thirty thousand Qingqi ready?"

Patriarch Liu beside him immediately echoed.

"Xun Yuanjian has already followed the horses to ambush outside the Jade Mountain."

"As soon as the Qin army enters the valley, they can immediately block the valley entrances on both sides and catch turtles in an urn!"

The corners of Yuan Jian's mouth raised slightly.

"In that case, what are you waiting for?"

Yuan Jian stood up suddenly and grabbed the sword beside him.

"Soldiers! They all say that the Qin people are fierce."

"Today I want to see if the Qin people dare to come out of camp to fight my army in such weather!"

"Send the order, the whole army will attack, and 5 people will follow me to call for formation."

"The rest of the soldiers were divided into three groups and guarded the areas leading to Jade Valley."

As soon as these words came out, Chief Liu was stunned.

Wasn't it discussed at the beginning to confront the Qin army head-on with all their strength, and then retreat immediately after the Qin army captured the Jade Valley?

Why do we suddenly have to divide our forces again?

Ignoring the confused Chief Liu, Yuan Jian narrowed his eyes.

"More than 2 troops were mobilized. Just eating [-] people is not enough. Once Jade Valley is besieged."

"Then the Qin people must send someone to rescue!"

"As long as they can defeat another reinforcement army and the Qin army is disheartened, they can try to attack from the front."

"In this battle, I will make the arrogant Qin people dare not march westward for a hundred years!"

After the words fell, all the clan leaders agreed one after another.

"The sword is wise! It is enough to contain only [-] cavalry from the front. In this weather, do the Qin people dare to pursue them?"

Another person followed suit.

"That's right! If they dare to chase them, we only need to rely on the strength of our horses to continuously encircle and encroach on them from the side, disrupt their formation, and even defeat them all in one battle!"

These radical remarks made Patriarch Liu frown.

Said with some doubts.

"Isn't this a bit greedy and rash?"

Yuan Jian was the first to speak out.

"Clan Chief Liu is overly worried. If you think there is anything wrong, you can point it out."

"We will definitely consider it seriously, and there is nothing wrong with being cautious!"

Patriarch Liu opened his mouth, but found that the Qin army had no chance of retaliating.

If he were the commander-in-chief of the Qin army, in this weather, even the 2 people sent to Jade Valley would give up decisively, otherwise no matter how many reinforcements he sent, they would be in vain.

Seeing Patriarch Liu speechless.

Yuan Jian laughed.

"Okay! Since all the clan leaders have no objections."

"Then, send troops to attack Qin!"

After several hours.

Except for the 11 cavalrymen who went to Jade Valley, the remaining [-] Qiang troops began to march southwest.

This time, except for those tribal family members hiding deep in the west, the Qiang people have almost come out in full force.

Such a huge movement, although blocked by wind and snow, was still discovered by the scouts.

The soldiers immediately reported to the military camp.

Ying Xuan in the camp is examining the map.

Thinking about whether the battlefield is too close outside the military camp.

Suddenly hearing the reward, he raised his eyebrows.

"Well done, you really dare to deliver it to your door!"

"The whole army obeys the order and marches out to the hill three miles away to face the enemy."

As soon as the words fell, the troops in the camp immediately moved into action, and each marching formation braved the wind and snow and began to approach the hills on the north side.

When a group of soldiers arrived, they could already see the dark Qingqi of the Qiang people in the distance.

Neither side took the risk and looked at each other across a flat area several miles apart.

In front of the Qiang formation.

Yuan Jian looked at the Qin army, all of which were infantry.

Eyes narrowed.

Patriarch Liu on the side subconsciously tightened the reins.

"The snow is now a foot thick, which is when the cavalry can still attack quickly."

"The Qin people rely entirely on the crossbow array for defense. As long as we don't rush into the crossbow array and continue to test them from a distance, we will definitely find their weak points."

"At that time, change the direction and charge a few more times, disrupting the opponent's formation, and they will all be lambs waiting to be slaughtered!"

Yuan Jian nodded slowly, but he also knew that if he wanted to test out the Qin army's weaknesses, he didn't know how many soldiers' lives it would take to fill them.

Doing this right from the start will damage morale too much.

We still have to wait until the news of the great victory comes back from Jade Valley.

Only then can we lead the victorious army to a decisive battle with the Qin army.

"Pass my order, as long as the Qin army goes south without dividing their forces, we will be in a stalemate with them here."

"When the people from Jade Valley finish dealing with the Qin army, they will be anxious!"

But what he didn't know was that Ying Xuan was also waiting.

……

Jade Valley.

The low hills on both sides are already covered with snow.

In the middle of the valley, there is a depression.

A large number of horses were gathering at this moment.

If you look carefully, you can recognize that these are all horses lost from the Kansai Racecourse.

There are nearly a thousand Qiang people surrounding the horses.

They set up camp and made a fire to cook as usual.

It seems like this is just a very ordinary tribe.

Little did he know that there were [-] Qin troops approaching in the distance.

The leader of the Qin army was Wang Li.

When the heavy snow started to fall yesterday.

Wang Li fell into deep worry.

If this continues, the road will be blocked by heavy snow, and 10,000+ troops will be trapped in the area unable to move.

It is also difficult to transport grain and grass from the east, but the Qiang people can take the initiative to intercept it by taking detours.

In this situation, it is almost like being passively beaten.

Although he kept telling himself in his heart that he should have confidence in the eldest son who was like a god in military skills, the reality was here.

Regardless, he was still worried.

It happened that at that time, the scouts reported news of Jade Valley.

Wang Li almost immediately decided that he must attack.

Before the heavy snow piles up, this is Da Qin's last chance to defeat the Qiang people!

As long as these horses can be snatched back, the young master's attack on the Qiang tribe can be considered a success.

No matter how I regained some face, there was no need to risk further.

And with horses, there is room for maneuver with the Qiang people.

Even if the young master wants to continue fighting, he has the means to fight back and will not be too passive.

So he volunteered and personally led 2 people, vowing to bring the horses back!
Although Ying Xuan was a little surprised, he agreed to let him go after thinking about it.

After all, in history, although Wang Li was defeated by Xiang Yu and Julu, there seemed to be no sound, but that was compared with Xiang Yu.

As the grandson of Wang Jian, Wang Li was also one of the famous generals in the late Qin Dynasty.

It is more than enough to command such a small-scale war.

Wang Li, who had already rushed to the side of the valley, was indeed more cautious than ordinary generals.

He poked his head and kept observing the surroundings of the valley.

A large number of scouts were also sent.

The young lieutenant beside him asked softly.

"You are so careful, is there something fishy in this valley?"

Wang Li frowned and said.

"A terrain like Jade Valley is an excellent place for an ambush."

"If I were a Qiang general, even if I didn't deploy thousands of troops around, I would definitely set up some ambushes high in the valley."

"But at this moment, the valley is extremely quiet. Except for a small tribe that raises tens of thousands of horses, there is no sign of any Qiang cavalry."

"Are you saying it's normal?"

The young lieutenant nodded slightly, and then continued to ask.

"You asked the young master for [-] more soldiers, why didn't you let them follow?"

Wang Li kept scanning the valley, trying to see what was unusual.But he kept talking.

"Ten thousand people are enough to capture the valley. The remaining people are just to prevent us from being blocked in the valley."

"Although there is a large army to restrain the front, the other side does not dare to send too many people."

"But if the opponent has a back-up plan, these 1 people will not be able to defend their retreat."

"At that time, we will have to rely on the [-] soldiers at the rear."

"With their help outside, we can master the plan!"

When the deputy general heard this, he realized that Wang Li had actually used him as bait.

Suddenly I felt anxious.

"No, General, you are putting yourself in danger, it's not worth it!"

But before he finished speaking, Wang Li raised his hand to stop him.

"Don't say any more."

"Last time it was because of our hesitation that the master's plan had no room for development. Afterwards, the master not only did not blame us, but also pretended that he had no intention of killing the enemy after the first copy."

Wang Li clenched his hands into fists.

"This time, if I cannot bring these tens of thousands of horses back for the young master, I, Wang Li, will not be able to face the elders of my family!"

He turned around suddenly and looked at the soldiers behind him.

"Wait for your orders!"

"Leave 1 people to guard the southern valley entrance, and the rest will follow me."

"Take back my Great Qin's horses!"

After the words fell, Wang Li rushed out first.

The ten thousand soldiers behind him remained silent and followed closely with their heads lowered.

They were all people who had experienced the Yuezhi War, and a small team of five people cooperated with each other tacitly.

When the Qiang people in the valley discovered them.

Wang Li was already less than one mile away from them.

"Enemy attack!"

A sharp cry came out.

Suddenly, thousands of Qiang people armed with scimitars rushed out of hundreds of camps.

It seems that these people are well prepared.

Wang Li narrowed his eyes.

"as predicted!"

But this move did not make them retreat at all.

The soldiers were silent for a long time, and finally broke out at this moment.

"kill!"

Fierce roars echoed in the valley.

Just when Wang Li was about to rush into the Qiang camp.

A large number of strange screams were heard from the east and west sides of the valley at the same time, and then the Qiang cavalry who had been lying in wait for a long time rushed out of the forest one by one.

"Roar! Roar!"

"Ha ha!"

"We have been waiting for a long time, Qin people, accept death!"

Seeing this scene, the ten thousand soldiers Wang Li left on the hillside in the southeast of the valley immediately rushed to stop them.

Before the Qiang people could pick up their speed, they cooperated with the crossbowmen to block them.

But in the other direction of the valley, there were also more than 1 Qingqi rushing towards them.

Wang Li in the Qiang camp cut off the head of the enemy in front of him with one sword.

Hot blood burned his eyes.

Without enough time to wipe it off, Wang Li frowned and looked east.

Some said in disbelief.

"Why so many!"

"Aren't they afraid of being defeated by the Young Master's army head-on?"

But it's too late to say anything now.

Wang Li knew that now he could only kill the thousands of people in front of him and quickly drive the horses out of the valley.

Even if only one person survives, everything will be worth it as long as he can bring the horse to the young master.

At this time, the last ten thousand soldiers of the Qin army came to join the battle.

Although they ran as hard as they could, the speed of the Qiang horses was still too slow.

By the time they arrived, nearly ten thousand Qiang people had already rushed into the valley and rushed towards Wang Li.

Seeing this scene, Wang Li yelled.

"The spearmen will follow me to stop the enemy! The rest of them will rush in quickly and we must bring the horses back!"

As soon as the voice fell, a thousand soldiers out of the ten thousand soldiers rushed out immediately.

They lined up in order holding bronze spears more than one foot long (3 to 4 meters).

Together with the 1000 warriors who followed Wang Li, they formed a combination of long and short soldiers.

The cold wind cut across their faces like a knife.

Although the valley is large, in this environment.

The opponent is condescending, as long as they are willing to pay the price to disrupt their own formation.

The rest will be carnage.

The soldiers knew it in their hearts.

They are afraid that it will be difficult for them to leave alive!
Even Wang Li didn't care about life and death at this moment.

He turned around and saw the Qiang camp that was about to be penetrated, and the soldiers who were approaching the horses.

With a smile on his face, he turned around and shouted loudly.

"Soldiers, let Qiang Rong see the bloody nature of the Qin people!"

"Da Qin! Yongchang!"

The two thousand soldiers who followed him also roared.

"Da Qin! Yongchang!"

next moment.

They rushed towards the galloping cavalry and horses without hesitation.

We must use our flesh and blood to block the Qiang people here.

Wang Li could already predict that the fate of himself and others would be a bloody scene.

He felt a little desperate inside.

But right now.

A louder and deeper "kill" suddenly sounded from the forest on the right.

Everyone trembled inwardly, the Qiang people actually had reinforcements!

Wang Li turned back solemnly.

The next moment, he saw a dazzling black flag rushing out of the snow-white forest.

There is a big Qin character embroidered on it!

Wang Li's eyes widened, and he heard the other party's loud and clear shouts before he could react.

"Young master is invincible!"

"Young master is invincible!"

Wang Li blinked and saw the leader.

Wearing black armor and holding a halberd in one hand, he was extremely tall.

The horses under his command were extremely fast, and they actually came from behind.

Throw a halberd from the side.

"puff!"

The huge force severely pierced a Qiang man.

After that, his momentum continued unabated, and he hit another person again with his halberd.

People turn their backs.

The mighty charge of nearly ten thousand Qiang people was suddenly suffocated by this one man.

Then, before Wang Li could marvel at his bravery.

Then he opened his eyes wide and saw that the three thousand cavalrymen following that man were all holding spears and riding stirrups.

Before approaching the Qiang people, they relied on the strength of their feet.

He picked the opponent with one shot.

When the spear is used up, the left hand relaxes and discards it.

The right hand on the waist suddenly drew out the long sword.

Conveniently, he cut off the head of the Qiang man on the right.

Such a terrifying killing efficiency made Wang Li and other soldiers couldn't help but widen their eyes.

"Who are these people?"

"Could he be under the Young Master's command? How could he be so brave?"

Don't give them any time to marvel.

In the second roar of "Young Master is invincible!"

With only a cup of tea, three thousand cavalry were able to kill nearly ten thousand Qiang Qingqi.

The scattered Qiang people all had expressions of shock and fear on their faces.

He was soon surrounded and killed by the surrounding infantry soldiers.

Wang Li just wanted to step forward and ask.

However, Xiang Yu, the leader, seemed to be unhappy.

Then he set his sights on the northwest, where the Qiang people were still fighting with [-] infantry soldiers.

But those people also saw the scene of collapse in the valley, and the Qiang corpses all over the ground gave them deep fear.

In addition, Xiang Yu took the lead in charging at this moment, with a shocking momentum.

He was so frightened that he didn't even care about the infantry in front of him.

Desperately fleeing to the rear.
