Qiang Qin

Updated: 2010-12-30

The Qin army in Sanchuan City was already exhausted after fighting the Chu army in the past few days. If the location of the city was not so beneficial to the defenders, they might have been defeated.After all, the tens of thousands of people in the city are not the real elite soldiers of the Qin State. It can even be said that they are just the old and weak army of the Great Qin. Let them guard the city gate and take care of the law and order. Maybe they can handle it easily, but such a difficult task The struggle is not something they can bear.

Chen Ping shuttled through the barracks under the guard of several personal soldiers, cheering up the soldiers, but what Chen Ping saw was the full camp of dejected soldiers and those wounded lying on the ground moaning continuously. the wounded. "Let's persevere, everyone. The emperor should have pacified Chu. Once he knows that our counties in the Central Plains have been attacked by the Chu army, he will definitely come back with his troops. Then we can take revenge." Chen Ping Encouraging the soldiers, although he didn't know how much the soldiers would listen to what he said, he kept encouraging them.All the soldiers looked at Chen Ping with expressions on their faces. They only hoped that the war would end soon.

"Prime Minister, there was a sudden change in the Chu army outside the city. The general guarding the city did not dare to make a decision on its own, and ordered the villain to come and report it." When Chen Ping walked out of the barracks, a soldier stepped forward and whispered.

"Oh? Take me up there to have a look." Chen Ping immediately guessed whether the Qin army brigade from the expedition to Chu had rushed back, causing the Chu army to panic.But at the same time, he warned himself not to have too much hope.Ascending to the top of the city, Chen Ping looked down under the dim moonlight, and saw the fires shining in the Chu army camp. Many Chu troops were still running around, as if they were fighting an enemy army.Chen Ping tried his best to look, but he could only see two teams fighting, but he couldn't be sure that the other side was his Daqin army, so he praised the general who came over and said: "You did a good job, the situation is not clear now, we still It's better to stay still, otherwise the Chu people will have an opportunity to take advantage of it." At the same time, he ordered: "The situation outside the city is unclear, we just need to stay on the city, and we will naturally know when it is dawn."

As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of horsemen suddenly ran out of the Chu army camp and came to the city and shouted: "Who is the guard in the city? Quickly open the city gate and send troops to attack the Chu army with our army." There was war in the voice. After the gasp.

Chen Ping whispered a few words in the general's ear, he nodded and said, "Who is the general? It's too dark today, and it's really impossible to distinguish the enemy from us. Please hold on outside the city for a while, and we will open the door in the morning." The city came out to respond."

The man under the city dodged a spear stabbed from behind, stabbed the enemy to death with his backhand, and said: "I am the deputy general under General Zhang Han. Now General Zhang has brought 2 horses and has already fought The Chu army is fighting together, but our army is not strong enough to confront the Chu army head-on. If the day breaks, our [-] troops will have no way to resist the enemy. Please send troops to help the generals in the city quickly. "

"Why are there only 2 horses?" Chen Ping was very surprised, so he asked people to ask this question.

"Our army has been exhausted from conquering Chu all the way, so the emperor ordered General Zhang to bring an army back first. General, please open the door and help us defeat the enemy, otherwise the 2 people will be buried here." The man was anxious He said anxiously, his tone full of anxiety and uneasiness.

Chen Ping hesitated unceasingly. If this is the strategy of the Chu army, then once the city gate is opened, the Sanchuan city will be occupied by the Chu people, and Xianyang will be in danger by then, but if this is true, 2 people will be trapped. Surrounded by nearly [-] troops of the Chu army, he must have narrowly escaped death, and I am afraid that he will not be able to explain to the emperor by then.After much consideration, Chen Ping decided to take the risk of sending out troops. Apart from the concerns just now, he could also see from the performance of the sergeant that Sanchuan City might not be able to defend for long. Can the Chu army be wiped out.So Chen Ping sent someone to send a message: "Go forward and let me verify your integrity. If you are indeed a general of our Great Qin, we will naturally send troops to the city."

The man was overjoyed when he heard the words, and quickly urged his horse to move forward. A torch was thrown down from the city, and the man stood where the torch could shine.The defenders on the city looked at the flames, and found that although the clothes on this man were blood-stained and a little messy after the hard battle, they could still be seen to be Daqin's military uniform.After the man had seen them clearly, he urged again: "Quickly open the door, we are indeed here by the emperor's order, and General Zhang still has the emperor's will."

Chen Ping was about to order people to open the city, when he heard the word "emperor", he felt a movement in his heart, as if he had caught something, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly whispered a few words to his own soldiers, although the man was puzzled , but still went down the tower.However, Chen Ping did not rush to order people to open the city, but said to the man below the city: "Just wait a little longer, and I will open the city gate after I gather the army guarding the city together."

The man said: "It's very good, I'll go back and report to General Zhang." Then he went back and went back.And when he saw that he brought people back to kill, Chen Ping's eyes flashed again.

In the camp of the Chu army that looked down from the top of the city with little lights of fire and constant killing sounds, the lineup was in order at this time, thousands of Chu troops were fighting on the sidelines, while the others stood there silently, waiting. The opening of Sanchuan City Gate.Xiang Yu was in the middle, and when he saw the man running back, he hurriedly asked, "Wang Jiu, what's the situation? Did Qin Jun really fall for it?"

The man named Wang Jiu nodded excitedly and said: "At first they wanted to wait until dawn before opening the city gate, but at the end of the day they had an idea and said that they were coming on the order of the emperor of Qin, so they were a little loose. Once the troops are gathered, the city gates will be opened."

"Okay! If Sanchuan City is destroyed right now, you, Wang Jiu, will be the first!" Xiang Yu said happily.Then he ordered the whole army to be ready to enter the city at any time and occupy Sanchuan City.In the past few days, the Chu army has been attacking the city for a long time, and the Chu army held their breath. Now that the city is about to be broken, all the soldiers are very excited. They only think about how to slaughter after entering the city to vent their hatred.

After waiting for half an hour, when Chu Jun even began to doubt whether Qin Jun was really in the trap, with a creaking sound, the gate of Sanchuan City, which had never been attacked, slowly opened.When Xiang Yu saw this, he didn't care about waiting for the Qin army to come out of the city. He pointed the long knife in his hand and shouted: "Soldiers, kill!" He took the lead and killed Sanchuan City.Seeing this, the Chu soldiers were unwilling to let them down, and they all screamed and killed them. It seemed that they could already see their knives slashing on the necks of those Qin people.

Nearly [-] Chu troops swarmed towards the city gate, but no Qin army rushed out of the gate. This unreasonable phenomenon made Xiang Yu alert.But at this time, the Chu army in the back had been rushing forward continuously, and the people in front couldn't stop even if they wanted to, so they could only keep moving forward with inertia until they entered the city gate.

As soon as they entered the city gate, what the Chu army saw was not the Qin defenders who were stunned and didn't know what to do, but thousands of dense crossbow arrows.Countless crossbow arrows blocked the sight of Chu soldiers like dark clouds covering the sun, and shot at them.Because the Chu army rushed into the city, they didn't pay attention to any formation. They thought that once the city gate was cheated, they would just wait to kill, but they were killed by the Qin people first.

After a shower of arrows, another shower of arrows. Obviously, the Qin army in the city had already used all the crossbows and arrows for this time.The Chu army was suddenly shot and killed thousands of people by the Qin army's crossbow arrows. They were all panicked and forgot to charge up, and some even turned around and wanted to leave the city.But all the Chu troops rushed over, and the gate of the city was blocked tightly by the Chu troops who came up from behind. Those Chu soldiers who wanted to retreat could only collide with those who came in, which made the whole situation even worse. Confused.

Xiang Yu knew that he had been fooled again as soon as he saw Qin Jun's arrow rain, but after the Chu army was attacked, there were bursts of screams, and Xiang Yu's order could not be transmitted.In fact, if the Chu army rushed forward when encountering the Qin army's arrow rain, I am afraid that the Qin army would have to fight the Chu army hand-to-hand before firing a few waves of arrows. The regiment completely lost the courage to charge forward.This gave Qin Jun more opportunities to shoot arrows and kill them.

After all the arrows carried by each crossbowman were exhausted, the Qin army rushed towards the Chu army who had lost its fighting power under a loud shout...

A battle without suspense soon ended with the Chu army withdrawing from the city in embarrassment. After all, the Qin army did not dare to go out of the city to pursue the Chu army. After the Chu army retreated, they closed the city gate.In this battle, the Qin army annihilated nearly 2 Chu troops at a cost of less than a thousand casualties, and most of the Chu troops who escaped were injured.

Chen Ping heard the flaws in Wang Jiu's words, because now everyone in the Qin country already called the emperor the emperor, but the people of Chu obviously didn't pay attention to this.And when Wang Jiu heard that the defenders in the city were willing to open the city gate, instead of waiting there to lead the way for them to go directly to Zhang Han to cooperate with each other, he actually went back there, which was also an abnormal move, so Chen Ping said I am even more sure of a strategy of the Siqin people.

However, the situation in the city was not optimistic, so Chen Ping simply followed his plan and decided to take the risk of opening the city gate to let the Chu army come in and attack suddenly.Everything was as expected by Chen Ping, and the Chu army ended the battle with a big defeat.The victory of this battle also greatly inspired the Qin army defending the city, and gave the already hopeless soldiers of the Qin army regained the confidence to defeat the Chu army.
