Chapter 222
The wind and snow became more and more violent.
The soldiers on both sides were shivering with cold.
If the stalemate continues like this, even if the soldiers don't fight, many people will die from illness.
This is something that neither party can accept.
The Qiang people's sword is also very clear.
He looked south in the direction of Jade Valley, but still no one came back to report.
Do we really want to miss this opportunity?
Just when he sighed and was about to order the withdrawal.
In the snow in the south, a figure came running wildly.
The eagerly awaited Qiang people all widened their eyes.
"Here it comes! The news is here!"
Yuan Jian also suddenly became energetic.
Staring at the approaching scout.
When the scout came closer, he asked without even opening his mouth.
"How's the situation in Jade Valley?"
But who knew that the scout was suddenly startled.
Then echoed.
"This subordinate is a scout sent by the patriarch of the clan."
As soon as these words came out, all the Qiang people who raised their spirits immediately sighed.
Yuan Jian also closed his eyes forcefully, his expression unable to conceal his disappointment.
"Then is the Qin army really that strong? It has the right time and place in the Jade Valley. Is it so difficult for [-] light cavalry to defeat [-] infantry?"
Seeing Yuan Jian's dissatisfied expression, the clan members no longer dared to speak.
But the scout followed closely and reported back.
"Yuanjian, don't worry. I ordered the clan leader to send his subordinates here just to report. The army has successfully detoured behind the Qin army. You see when to attack!"
Yuan Jian waved his hand impatiently.
"What's the attack? You can't even defeat 2 people, but you can defeat 10,000+ from the front?"
Yuan Jian's dissatisfaction was clearly revealed.
"That's all! Go back and tell him to withdraw the troops!"
"Come back and evacuate westward with me, wait until the snow melts!"
But after the words fell, the scout not only did not retreat, but instead took a step forward.
Some said anxiously.
"I clearly ordered the clan leader to ask his subordinates to bring them back if they have anything else to say."
Although Yuan Jian was a little impatient, he still listened.
"The army was already several miles away from the back of the Qin army, and the opponent's right army's formation was too far forward, revealing a huge flaw."
"Now as long as there is a large army in front to attract attention, I can charge into the crossbow formation."
"Clan leader Ming Ling also said that even if there is no big victory in Jade Valley, we will definitely defeat the Qin army if we seize this opportunity."
Such words made Yuan Jian suddenly open his eyes.
Said with some doubts.
"Is this true?"
The scout hurriedly reported back.
"My subordinates have seen it with their own eyes, and it is indeed what the clan leader said."
"The Qin people's right army has only ten thousand warriors behind them."
"It will definitely not be able to stop the army from charging at such a close range."
The scout's determined words made Yuan Jian, who had already given up, frown again.
He looked at the deepening snow and knew in his heart that this was his last chance.
At this time, Patriarch Liu next to him saw Yuan Jian's thoughts and frowned.
"If it's true, I might as well take a gamble!"
"The army pretended to attack the left side of the Qin people from the front, and ordered the two armies at the rear to cooperate."
"In this way, the Qin people will definitely focus on the battlefield on the left side."
"Let the clan leader Mingling make a surprise attack then."
"If they can break into the Qin army's camp, they will no longer have the advantage of a powerful crossbow, and it is very likely that tens of thousands of people will be wiped out by us in one fell swoop."
These words made all the Qiang people frown and think.
Should we give it a try?
At this time, among the clan leaders, a person with a somewhat straightforward temper said.
"What are you afraid of? Even if there is an ambush, our Qiang army can evacuate immediately."
"Can the Qin army catch up with us in such a snow-covered scene?"
"If we wait any longer, we will completely lose the opportunity. Even the advantage of the horses will be wiped out by Qin Nu, and we will be at a disadvantage!"
This statement was also supported by the other clan leaders.
"Indeed, we can't waste it any longer no matter what."
"If we wait any longer, the horses that the soldiers are sitting on will no longer be able to lift their legs."
"When the speed advantage is lost, we will really lose sight of one thing and lose the other!"
Yuan Jian looked at the clan leaders who all agreed with him and finally made up his mind.
"Okay! If that's the case, then I'll meet the Qin army now!"
"Command, 4 frontal cavalry and [-] troops from the southwest will follow us to pretend to attack the Qin left army."
"It is bound to make them feel the crisis on all sides."
"In this way, we can create the best opportunity for the Mingling clan leader!"
"There are 2 people left. Once the Qin people all focus on the left side, they will immediately attack the Qin right army with the Mingling clan leader from front to back!"
To be cautious, after the layout is completed.
Yuan Jian warned again.
"If you discover that the other party is ambushing you halfway, don't be reluctant to fight."
"You can leave quickly. The Qin people have no cavalry and we are in an invincible position."
As soon as the words fell, the entire Qiang formation started to move.
Except for a few scouts who went to notify other armies.
The [-] light cavalry in front started to push forward again.
In front of the Qin army.
Looking at the Qiang people who were slowly accelerating and rushing towards the left side of the army.
Zhang Liang said.
"Do you want to capture our left army at all costs?"
"Where did they get their confidence?"
As soon as the words fell, the Qiang people actually began to accelerate towards the Zuo Army.
At this moment, a scout suddenly reported from behind.
"Report! Two large armies of Qiang people have gone around to the rear of the army!"
"It seems we are going to attack the left army together!"
The scout's words immediately made everyone's eyes widen.
"Are the Qiang people coming out in full force? Do they really intend to determine the outcome of this battle?"
But it was too late to think too much at this moment.
The left army was under too much pressure from being besieged on three sides and was in danger of retreating.
The Chinese army must stay close to assist in the defense.
All the soldiers began to give orders to adjust the direction of the crossbow phalanx and ballistae.
The adjustment has just been completed.
There was another charge.
When everyone turned around, they saw Qiang people rushing out of the mountains and forests a few miles away behind the right army.
But at this moment, the direction of the army's crossbow formation was already pointed to the left. "There is no time to guard against them!"
All the generals knew they had been fooled.
Seeing the [-] Qiang people approaching with ferocious expressions.
There were only [-] sharp men holding long swords behind the right army.
Facing the cavalry who use the terrain to speed up, even a stick of incense cannot hold on!
The generals of the Qin army were all stunned.
They knew that the right army was finished.
All that can be done now is to ruthlessly defeat the Qiang people who attacked the left army.
Only in this way can we win back a victory.
But when the generals turned around, they found that the main force of the Qiang people had turned around at the last moment.
The opponent had no intention of charging within the range of the crossbow.
They just want to eat the right army.
Everyone present looked panicked.
Only Ying Xuan could not control the corners of his mouth.
"Sound from east to west?"
"It's quite skillful to use."
Zhang Liang beside him also laughed out loud.
"Want to play with us in the art of war?"
"Don't you know that Da Qin is the birthplace of the art of war?"
The rear of the right army.
The faces of the ten thousand warriors guarding the back were full of panic.
No one expected that the Qiang people would come around here.
The road to the northwest has clearly been guarded.
Where did these people come from?
No one answered them.
Only the ferocious look on the clan leader's face was getting closer.
At this speed, a sharp man holding a long sword cannot stop the opponent.
As long as they tear open a gap, they can rush into the crossbow formation.
Everyone knew it would be a wanton massacre.
The Mingling clan leader was trembling with excitement at this moment.
Is this invincible Great Qin really going to be defeated by me today?
In the distance, the chiefs of the Qiang clan couldn't help but tighten their grip on the reins after the feint attack.
Yuan Jian also stopped at this time, staring at this scene.
Seeing that the [-] light cavalry led by the clan leader Ming Ling were only one mile away from the crossbow formation of the right army.
The remaining [-] light cavalry of the northern frontal army were also charging.
The right army was already unable to hide and was attacked from two sides.
The result is beyond doubt.
No one would think that those right-wing troops could withstand the killings of the cavalry on both sides.
The Qiang people even smiled.
But right now.
The leader of the clan, who had taken the lead, flew out of his horse without any warning.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers following him also made the same move one by one.
The horse's neighing sound suddenly sounded, which seemed to be in great pain.
Everyone hurriedly looked around and found out.
The flat snow suddenly collapsed at some point.
There were deep trenches several feet deep all over that area.
The upper part of the deep ditch is filled with endless branches and debris.
It was covered with heavy snow and no trace could be seen.
If a galloping horse steps on it, it will become a sharp weapon that can break the horse's legs.
The [-] Qiang troops almost rushed into a radius of one mile and barely breathed before they fell off their horses one after another.
The tragic screams echoed here.
No horse could cross that area.
The corners of Ying Xuan's mouth curled up.
As early as the first night before it snowed, he sent a thousand men to dig out several such areas three miles outside the camp, just to guard against cavalry sneak attacks.
No superfluous nonsense.
Ying Xuan ordered coldly.
"Soldiers, the time for revenge has come!"
"Today, we will avenge the villagers of Guanxi Racecourse and our people of Great Qin!"
"Kill me!"
As the voice fell, the crossbow phalanx that took the lead in adjusting its direction began to exert force.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The hail of arrows completely understood the screaming horses.
Also shot dead were the nearly [-] Qiang cavalrymen.
In the distance, Yuan Jian and others saw this scene, and their eyes were already splitting.
"Retreat! Retreat immediately, it's a trap!"
As soon as the words fell, not only the remaining [-] Qiang people who had not rushed into the deep ditch area quickly turned around and fled behind them.
Even the two cavalrymen in the south of the left army retreated quickly.
He was afraid that he and others would also be left under the terrifying rain of arrows.
In such weather, Yuan Jian and others were nervous and covered in sweat.
Patriarch Liu said even more panicked.
"Fortunately! Fortunately, the Qin people don't have horses."
"Otherwise, tens of thousands of soldiers would have been killed here just now."
The other clan leaders were also happy.
But at this time, thousands of Qingqi finally arrived from the direction of the Jade Valley in the south.
However, they did not bring the news of victory as Yuan Jian and others thought.
Instead, they all became extremely panicked and kept looking back behind them.
Before they got close, they shouted to the Qiang army.
"cavalry!"
"Qin's cavalry!"
"We were fooled! The Qin people have cavalry, and they are extremely powerful!"
In fact, he didn't need to shout, the Qiang people could see him.
Far away from these people, a large black mass of cavalry was quickly chasing after them.
What they are holding is a familiar black flag!
Yuan Jian's eyes widened, and he had no time to think about why Da Qin still had so many cavalry!
He turned around suddenly and said.
"Evacuate! Evacuate to the northwest!"
Chief Liu also shouted.
"With such heavy snow, they can't catch up with us without anyone stopping them!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, God seemed to respond to him specifically.
Their retreat direction.
The snow-white earth could not hide the dazzling light of the silver armor.
Needless to say, almost all the Qiang people saw the dazzling silver-armored cavalry standing on the retreat route at this moment.
