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

Chapter 400 Where to escape?
During the time when the Maurya army gathered.

The light cavalry in the west of the plains did not do nothing.

They divided into thousands of teams and took the lead in sweeping the Maurya supply convoy westward.

Make sure that no one can send food into the 450,000-strong army before returning again.

King Asoka of the South also knew the reason why Qingqi did not attack.

His face looked slightly ugly.

"Cut off food and fodder!"

The enemy really wanted to use these 200,000 cavalry to slowly wear them out.

This intention made Ashoka difficult to accept for a while.

How could the Qin general be so arrogant?

"With the command of the God King, even a slight setback to our Maurya Dynasty's army will not hinder our goal of destroying Qin."

"That's right!"

"Send the order, divide the three armies and march together, and withdraw from the plains to the west!"

He pointed at the scattered Qin cavalry in the west.

"Someone in the end seems to have easily defeated this plan, and may even swallow their 100,000 cavalrymen who have penetrated deep into the hinterland!"

When it came to my mouth, it changed to "greeting" again.

As long as they can retreat temporarily and regain their morale.

Although he was very angry at the moment, he still suppressed his anger.

"It's so greedy that a snake swallows an elephant!"

The general's words made Ashoka stand up suddenly.

The anger had been suppressed for several hours, and now it seemed that it had found an outlet.

"The enemy formed such a formation in order to use the flexibility of the cavalry to continuously consume and encircle the soldiers who wanted to evacuate."

As soon as he finished speaking, the infantry general who had abandoned his heavy cavalry and was forced to save his cavalry suddenly stood up.

"The other party actually wants to surround us in this way?"

The prime minister next to him opened his mouth again and almost said that there were only 450,000 left.

"At that time, the retreat of the soldiers on the east side will turn into a rout."

This made him very angry, but it was all because Da Qin was too insidious.

"The worst thing to avoid during a march is for the enemy to know his intentions."

"If our withdrawal is too obvious, the Qin cavalry on the east side will definitely combine with the 60,000 infantry to apply pressure!"

"Report to the King of Gods!"

"How do you think we should withdraw our troops?"

"I thought I could see the direction of my army's movements in advance from the outside."

Although they had the advantage, they not only failed to take advantage in the successive confrontations.

"But this plan is just their whim."

It has been disguising itself as a weak country with only tens of thousands of infantry.

"As long as these cavalry dare to block it, we will attack with all our strength."

Thinking of this, Ashoka no longer hesitated.

"Restore the food route and reorganize the formation."

Attack again. It is absolutely impossible for the enemy to take advantage in a head-on conflict.

He sneered with a bit of embarrassment and anger.

"As long as we dare to evacuate in a large scale, they will take advantage of the chaotic formation to attack with all their strength."

He glanced at the Qingqi of the Qin people who were following the army to the west, and their formations were spread out within a radius of ten miles.

"At the end of the day, we will all think that we cannot move together."

The general's eyes lit up when he saw that the God King was willing to listen to his opinions.

"Otherwise, with them always behind us, it would be difficult for the soldiers to let go and attack."

The general's words made Asoka ponder for a moment and quickly nodded.

He was also suppressed by the Qin people many times.

Ashoka also agreed with this.

"However, Wei Chen still suggested that the army should defeat the cavalry on the west side first."

"So that we can gather the cavalry in advance to stop them."

"With only one hundred thousand cavalry, and such a loose formation, how can it possibly stop our 600,000-strong army?"

Said very excitedly.

"Is this true?"

The general suddenly took a step forward and knelt on one knee.

"The general will never talk nonsense!"

"If I can't do it, I'm willing to die to apologize."

Ashoka suddenly opened his eyes and shouted.

"it is good!"

"That's how it should be."

"I will give you the authority to command the army!"

"As long as you can defeat the enemy's 100,000 cavalry today, I will reward you with whatever you want after the war!"

The general gritted his teeth as he finished speaking.

"I don't ask for anything else, I just want no one to interfere and no one to stop me during this battle!"

The general was really frightened by the change of formation just before the battle.

At this time, I just want to have unimpeded command authority.

Ashoka narrowed his eyes and did not hesitate at all.

"Don't doubt people who are suspicious of you, don't be suspicious of people who are employed!"

"I believe in you today. General Barry must not let me down."

After finishing his words, Barry raised his head with firm eyes.

Take the lead towards the western front.

Ashoka narrowed his eyes and asked softly.

"Do you think he can win?"

The Prime Minister beside him had not spoken until now.

"We will definitely win. General Bali has been fighting with you for nearly ten years, step by step, establishing the current territory for the Maurya Dynasty."

"Since he has confidence, he will never lose here."

Ashoka also nodded vigorously, placing all his hopes on Barry.

As Barry came to the front line to take command of the army.

While summoning the generals from all parties, several areas were secretly divided.

While following the map, he continued to deduce Qin Qi's possible reaction.

The Eastern Front is still under constant harassment and attack by 100,000 cavalry.

He must speed up.

Finally after several repeated exercises.

After confirming that there were no omissions, he and everyone in the future smiled.

Looking at the scattered Western cavalry, he showed a look of disdain.

"Great Qin? No matter how arrogant you are in the east, when you come here, I will make you understand that arrogant soldiers will be defeated!"

As the words fell, planned orders began to be issued.

The 450,000-strong army began to roll like a huge chariot.

The first to advance was the center of the army.

As the soldiers charged, a vanguard arrow protruded from the center of the army in a short period of time.

Seeing that the Maurya Dynasty began to attack.

The scattered cavalrymen in the west responded quickly.

They also gathered in the middle from all sides.

This scene did not exceed Barry's expectations.

He even narrowed his eyes and smiled excitedly.

"That's it, come together and fight us!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the forward of the army was attacked by Qin Qi's crazy arrow rain.

A large number of soldiers were exhausted.

But Barry turned a blind eye and just watched Qin Qi gathering.

Little by little, until all the Qin cavalry were almost surrounded by the arrow tip protruding from the army.

Enjoy this killing feast.

He just shouted loudly.

"Attack!"

After a few breaths, under the command of war drums, several generals who had been prepared suddenly gave orders.

At the north and south ends of the army.

Tens of thousands of elite soldiers each withdrew their heavy armor and attacked with light armor, and began to rush quickly.

Viewed from a high altitude, it looks like a three-dimensional figure facing the 3 Qin cavalry who are fighting crazily with the Chinese army.

Ashoka and others deep behind seemed to have figured out his purpose at this moment.

The Prime Minister suddenly narrowed his eyes.

"General Barry, this is to use the sacrifice of the Chinese army to lure the enemy into our siege formation!"

"But in this case, it depends on whether the other general is greedy."

"If I weren't greedy, I'd probably react quickly and exit easily!"

There were other generals beside him who also frowned.

"Yes, at this moment, we must retract the central army into the main army before the other party recovers."

"In this way, we can lure the enemy deeper and make it easier to encircle them."

But as soon as they said this, they discovered that the army was in the middle.

The slaves who were constantly being massacred by Qin Qi not only did not retreat less at this moment.

Even charging westward in an even more crazy form.

It seemed that he didn't care at all whether Qin Qi would find out and wake up.

This move made everyone frown.

At this moment, they suddenly discovered.

The Eastern Front is also changing.

When the western front moved forward, every open space it gave up would be filled immediately by the troops from behind.

Such a move is equivalent to the Eastern soldiers also gradually retreating with the central army retreating first, and the two wings following closely to make up for it.

In this step-by-step manner, it won't take long for the army to withdraw from the plain area.

When the time comes, they will enter the mountains, rivers and forests they are familiar with.

Then you don’t have to be so frustrated anymore.

Not only is this approach not radical, it is even a very prudent move. But it is difficult to defeat the opponent's Qingqi as Barry said.

Even in this process, the losses suffered by the army were huge.

Just when everyone was slightly disappointed.

But the Western front was changing again.

With the encirclement at the north and south ends, Shi Wan Qingqi discovered it early.

Start retreating immediately.

This time they pressed forward and killed more than tens of thousands of people.

My own losses were only a few thousand, so I didn’t feel any loss at all.

Every general was very excited.

They looked towards the south, and saw the infantry charging at a very long distance, and even had time to taunt them for a while.

"Still want to surround us?"

"Are you crazy?"

Everyone evacuated easily. There was no pressure at all.

But just as they turned around.

In the middle of the Maurya army, half of the remaining cavalry suddenly rushed out from the cover of the army.

He led 20,000 people in a suicidal pursuit behind Qingqi.

This scene shocked everyone.

Even the 100,000 Qingqi were stunned for a moment.

No one cared about the defeated cavalry at all.

No one regards them as opponents.

But right now.

Tens of thousands of infantry troops from the north and south of the Maurya Dynasty were rushing towards them with all their might.

Even when he was about to cross the cavalry position.

Twenty thousand cavalry would be their nightmare.

As long as they are entangled, the only thing left for the 100,000 light cavalry is the siege of more than 400,000 troops.

This scene made Ashoka in the back almost jump with excitement.

"it is good!"

"Brilliant move!"

The generals also stared with excitement.

General Barry really did it.

The enemy's 100,000 cavalry have reached a dead end.

Even if not all are destroyed, half will be left here.

All the Maurya soldiers were excited.

Barry, who was on the front line, believed that the battle was a foregone conclusion.

The gradual retreat of the eastern defense line gave the Qin people no chance to enter the formation again.

The West besieged the opponent again, and even if it could only kill half of them, the remaining enemies would not have the courage to surround them again.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief since the war started, and laughed and mocked.

"The generals of the Qin army were so arrogant after all that they thought they were cavalrymen and they could rest easy?"

"Even for cavalry, the speed at which they respond to instructions takes time."

"With such an opportunity, all it takes is one surprise to completely trap them here."

"You really dare to surround an army of 450,000 with 200,000 people?"

"On paper, it's too idealistic a design!"

Barry seemed to have great disdain for Da Qin's commanding generals.

He let out a loud laugh.

On the western front, more than 20,000 cavalrymen were chasing madly with javelins.

One hundred thousand light cavalry had to turn around and fight back to prevent them from getting close and disrupting the formation.

But this move was exactly what Barry wanted.

As soon as he counterattacked, his speed slowed down.

The soldiers who crossed their positions on the north and south sides had begun to encircle them at this moment.

Even if they abandon everything and speed up their escape now, they must leave half of their people behind.

Ashoka and others behind him were already laughing.

"This move will wipe out half of the Qin people's cavalry in one move. Let's see how courageous they still have to resist the invasion of my Mauryan Dynasty army!"

From their perspective, it seemed that overall victory would gradually unfold as a result of this encirclement.

But just now.

In front of Ying Xuan on the top of the northern mountain.

The identity cards of the Forbidden Army officers and soldiers were spread out all over the place.

Ying Xuan stared at the ant-like formations in the west.

Say something coldly.

"Split your troops into three groups!"

"Repulse the north and south sides and give the Chinese army time to fight."

As the words fell, the pieces of gold beside him disappeared out of thin air.

Voices echoed in the minds of the Forbidden Army soldiers.

On the battlefield.

One hundred thousand Qingqi suddenly seemed to have given up resistance.

Suddenly dispersed.

Thirty thousand troops went south, thirty thousand went north, leaving 40,000 Chinese troops to flee for their lives.

This scene stunned Barry.

It seems that he didn't expect that the other party could respond like this.

But the next moment, a scene appeared that made his eyes widen.

The southern cavalry actually maintained an almost terrifying coordination.

At the same time, they faced their own northern and southern armies.

When facing these cavalry, the light infantry without their escorts were like weeds, being harvested in a one-sided madness.

The sight made Barry freeze.

He looked to the south and then to the north.

Unexpectedly, no party was able to break through under pressure and complete the encirclement.

Directly ahead, more than 20,000 cavalry finally approached the remaining Qin cavalry formation.

They were the first to throw the javelin.

The first wave did cause some damage to Qin Qi.

But then, they were faced with the neat firing of forty thousand Qin crossbows.

In just a few rounds, the last 20,000 cavalrymen were lost.

It's so late and so fast, it all happens at the same time.

When the generals of the Maurya Dynasty reacted.

One hundred thousand Qingqi have gathered together again.

Their attack, which cost tens of thousands of lives, failed.

Barry's eyes widened.

It is unbelievable that the enemy army can achieve such terrifying coordination.

After all, that is an army of 100,000!
It’s not like a child is standing in front of someone being scolded.

"The Qin people must be confused!"

Barry, who was already panicking, shouted unwillingly.

"The Chinese army continues to charge!"

"The slaves are not allowed to stop. I will push them all to the front line."

"Rush behind the Qin people, otherwise they will die here!"

Without stopping, Barry gave another order to a herald waiting behind him.

"When giving orders to all armies, there is no priority."

"Leave a hundred thousand troops on the east side to garrison where they are."

"The rest of the troops will charge with all their strength and cover each other."

"As long as one of them can rush behind them, these 100,000 cavalry will be able to stay here!"

"I don't believe that these 100,000 cavalry can stop our forwards time and time again?"

As the order was given again.

The entire Maurya army began to boil.

There were groups of infantrymen trying to break out of the plains.

But this moment.

On top of the mountains in the north.

Ying Xuan's eyes widened.

Keep an eye on the Western Front.

Every tiny movement of the Maurya Dynasty fell accurately in his eyes.

As names were called out one by one, orders were issued one after another.

A terrifying scene appeared.

No matter which direction or angle the 350,000-strong army attacks.

One hundred thousand cavalrymen seemed to have eyes.

Divide troops in advance and block in advance.

They are like a pool of water, sometimes spreading rapidly and sometimes gathering continuously.

But he could always fight back the soldiers of the Maurya Dynasty.

It was as if there was an eye in the sky staring at them.

Barry's whole body was shaking at this moment.

Such a terrifying reaction, such incredible cooperation, and such a powerful level of combat power.

The soldiers of the Mauryan Dynasty were almost desperate.

The two sides are not on the same level at all.

The gold cakes in Ying Xuan's hand were being consumed rapidly.

Ashoka's soldiers also fell crazily.

Ying Xuan is using his financial resources to crazily replace the lives of the Que Dynasty!

Ashoka from behind watched helplessly, becoming more and more panicked at this moment.

He swallowed and seemed to finally realize something.

"Do the people of Qin want to fight and destroy the Maurya Dynasty?"
