The most powerful fool system

Page 157

　Finally, two days later, Xiang Yu reluctantly withdrew his troops and returned to Pengcheng.

　Xiang Yu's third crusade against Han Xin has since failed.

　And just when Han Xin was in the south, he defeated the [-] elite infantry of the Chu army, forcing Xiang Yu to retreat back to Pengcheng.

　At the junction of Julu County and Guangyang County in the north, a place called Tengshan, a huge ambush also started.

　"Kill!"

　On the hills on both sides of a road going north, soldiers of the Qin Army in black clothes and armor can be seen everywhere, swooping down from the hillside.

　On the road, it was the more than 7 Yan army infantry led by Zang Tu.

　After Zang Turang's general led the Yan Army cavalry to the north, he led more than 7 Yan Army infantry and rushed to Ji County desperately.

　Zang Tu thought that Xu Feng's goal was his capital, Ji County.

　But in fact, Xu Feng's real goal is to run towards the main force of the 7-odd Yan army under his command.

　Xu Feng sent out scouts, and after thousands of choices, he finally found such an excellent ambush place.

　And here is the fastest way for the Yan army to go north to Ji County.

　Xu Feng also counted Zang Tu's mind, knowing that Zang Tu must rush back to Ji County at this time, and most likely choose to take this shortcut.

　So Xu Feng took fifty thousand soldiers of the Qin army and set up an ambush circle here.

　After three days of waiting, the more than 7 Yan army led by Zang Tu really plunged into the ambush circle of the Qin army.

　"Kill, kill out."

　Zang Tu shouted eagerly.

　But unfortunately, for this battle, Xu Feng and Guo Jia had carefully arranged everything. How could it be possible for the Yan army in the ambush circle to break out easily.

　Thousands of armored infantry of the Qin army firmly guarded the exits on both sides of the valley, blocking more than 7 Yan troops in the valley.

　Then, the archers of the Qin Army on the mountains on both sides first attacked with falling rocks and arrowheads, and then the infantry charged to kill.

　Originally, after encountering an ambush, these Yan army officers and soldiers panicked.

　Facing the swooping and killing of the elite Qin army infantry, after half a day, many Yan army miscellaneous soldiers collapsed and chose to surrender.

　Seeing that the situation was not good, Zang Tu ordered the most elite guards under his command to protect him forcefully, exited from the northern valley, and killed him.

　Unexpectedly, there are thousands of Qin cavalry outside, waiting for them.

　This battle lasted from noon until dark. The 7 Yan army fell apart, and the main force of the [-] Qin army led by Xu Feng almost collapsed.

　Of the more than 7 soldiers of the Yan army, more than 2 were killed by the Qin army alone, and more than 4 were captured.

　In the end, there were not many Yan troops who really followed Zang Tu to break out and escape smoothly.

　In this battle, Xu Feng came to destroy the vital forces of the Yan army.

　Xu Feng believed that for the land of Yan with a vast land and few people, if the main force of the 7-strong Yan army in Zang Tu's hands was wiped out, most of Yan's military strength would be weakened.

　It was no longer possible for Zang Tu to raise another Yan army of [-] in a very short period of time.

　After all, Yan's land is not like Han Xin's Linzi and Handan, Xu Feng's Guanzhong, Xiang Yu's Pengcheng and other places, with a large population and strong blood recovery ability.

　"His Majesty."

　After the battle, Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong returned to Xu Feng.

　"Have you found King Yan Zang Tu?" Xu Feng asked.

　"Returning to Your Majesty, the incompetent minister let Zang Tu escape.

　Zang Tu fled into the forest with his men, and our cavalry could no longer pursue them.

　However, Weichen had sent someone to lead his pawns into the mountain to continue the pursuit, and he would never let Zang Tu escape easily. "

　Zhao Yun replied.

　Although Zang Tu was not caught, Xu Feng was slightly disappointed.

　But in this battle, Xu Feng's main purpose was to destroy the main force of the Yan army and eliminate the vital forces of the Yan army.

　Now, at least this purpose has been perfectly achieved.

　Zang Tu without an army is like a toothless tiger, and he is no longer a threat to Xu Feng.

　"Forget it, recall the soldiers, there is no need to pursue Zang Tu.

　Tomorrow's army will go north to Ji County. "

　After Xu Feng gave the order, he was not very interested in whether Zang Tu could be caught.

　"promise."

　"Your Majesty, in this battle, we captured more than 4 Yan soldiers. How should we deal with these Yan soldiers?"

　Guo Jia at the side asked Xu Feng for instructions.

　In this ambush, the Qin army won a complete victory.

　Because many Yan troops were defeated and surrendered too quickly, there were only more than [-] Yan soldiers who died in battle.

　The rest, except for the thousands of people who protected Zang Tu and broke out, the remaining more than [-] soldiers of the Yan army were all blocked in the valley, and finally surrendered to the Qin army.

　But now, for Xu Feng, it is also a problem to deal with these Yan army prisoners in this way.

　After all, the Qin army was not strong at this time, and Xu Feng would go north to attack Jixian, bringing the [-] Yan army captives, which was a hidden danger after all.

　"Han Sheng, I will give you [-] soldiers and [-] civilian husbands. You will escort the [-] Yan army captives and return to Jinyang first."

　Xu Feng thought about it, but he was still reluctant to throw away the [-] Yan army captives, and said to Huang Zhong.

　Huang Zhong was a little disappointed when he heard Xu Feng's order. As a result, he would not be able to participate in the next battle.

　But Huang Zhong still obeyed the order.

　"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely take the [-] Yan army captives and send them back to Jinyang safely."

　In fact, at this time, Xu Feng still has two options if he wants to deal with the [-] Yan army captives.

　Just like how Xiang Yu killed more than 20 Qin troops, he could take the [-] Yan troops captive, kill them all, and free their troops.

　It is also possible to capture and release the [-] Yan troops.

　With the temperament of these soldiers in ancient times, even if they were let go, it would be absolutely difficult for Zang Tu to call them back in a short time.

　However, Xu Feng felt that the first method was too cruel and unnecessary.

　It is also impossible for Xu Feng to release the [-] Yan army captives for nothing, that would be too wasteful.

　You must know that what Daqin urgently needs at this time is labor.

　And these more than 4 strong Yan army captives are completely free huge labor force!

　No matter what, Xu Feng had to send them back to Guanzhong to contribute to the transition of Daqin from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age.

　To put it bluntly, it is to send them to mine!

　On February 7, after Xu Feng wiped out the main force of the Yan army of more than [-] in Zang Tu's hands, he continued to march northward with his entire army. This time he really went straight to Ji County.

　At the same time, more than twenty miles south of Ji County, a large-scale cavalry battle was also going on.

　The protagonists of the two sides are the [-] cavalry of the Qin Army led by Ma Chao, and the cavalry general Wen Yue under the command of Zang Tu, who led the [-] cavalry of the Yan Army who went north ahead of schedule.

　After Ma Chao joined Xu Feng, Xu Feng then sent him back to Guangyang County, where he was stationed in the south of Ji County, responsible for blocking the Yan army returning from the south.

　Originally, Xu Feng sent Ma Chao to intercept the Yan soldiers who might slip through the ambush circle.

　However, what Xu Feng didn't expect was that King Yan Zang Tu would send his cavalry back to Ji County in advance.

　It also made it impossible for Wenyue's [-] Yan army captives to be ambushed by Xu Feng.

　But when he was about to arrive in Ji County, he encountered [-] Qin cavalry led by Ma Chao.

　Naturally, Ma Chao couldn't let the [-] Yan army cavalry enter the city, so he attacked decisively and intercepted the [-] Yan army cavalry.

　At this time, the [-] cavalry of the Qin Army led by Ma Chao, as a victorious division, had long been arrogant, and they were never afraid of any enemy.

　Besides, they really don't pay attention to the mere [-] cavalry.

　"Kill!"

　On the plains in northern Hebei, cavalry from the Qin and Yan armies charged vertically and horizontally, and cavalry from both sides kept falling off their horses.

　However, the Yan Army cavalry could not compare with the [-] Qin Army cavalry under Ma Chao's command in terms of strength and equipment.

　Of the [-] cavalry under Ma Chao's command, half of them were cavalry veterans who had survived the previous battle with the Huns, and each of them was an absolute elite.

　In addition, all the cavalry of the Qin army were equipped with armor and sabers, which completely abused the cavalry of the Yan army.

　Even if the Yan Army's cavalry has 1 more troops than the Qin Army's, it cannot make up for their disadvantage at all.

　In the end, after more than two hours of the cavalry battle between the two sides, the [-] Yan army cavalry led by Wen Yue was still defeated.

Chapter 173 The Fall of Ji County

　173 The Fall of Ji County

　[Seek to collect and subscribe! 】

　Wen Yue led more than [-] cavalrymen of the Yan Army, who were defeated and fled into Jixian City, not daring to go out to fight.

　Ma Chao was engaged in a diplomatic war in Ji County, but Wen Yue remained unmoved and avoided the battle.

　In fact, the previous battle with Ma Chao allowed the generals of the Yan Army to fully see the ferocity of the Qin Army's cavalry.

　With strong strength and excellent equipment, the two sides are not at the same level at all.

　Wenyue's ability to escape back to Jixian County was already a blessing, so how could he dare to go out of the city to fight the cavalry of the Qin Army led by Ma Chao.

　"coward."

　Ma Chao was outside the city of Ji County, calling for a battle for two days. Seeing that the Yan army in the city was determined not to leave the city to fight, he cursed disdainfully.

　At this time, far away in a forest at the junction of Guangyang County and Julu County, Yan King Zang Tu hid here with three thousand remnants of the Yan army.

　Zang Tu sat on a big rock, his face was ugly, and he didn't say a word.

　Zang Tu didn't expect that the Qin army would ambush them on the way, and they suffered heavy losses in this battle.

　Regarding this point, Zang Tu knew better than anyone else, and his heart was very heavy.

　"Your Majesty, drink some water."

　A guard handed over the water bag and said to Zang Tu.

　Zang Tu didn't take the water bag, looked up at his confidant guard, and asked in a deep voice, "Zhang Ming, are they back yet?"

　Zang Tu sent his cronies out to explore the way, worried that Qin Jun had not left yet.

　"Not yet, Your Majesty."

　"Your Majesty, my servant is back."

　Not long after, a general of the Yan army hurried back with a dozen soldiers of the Yan army.

　Zang Tu stood up excitedly, and asked, "Zhang Ming, what's the situation outside now? Has Qin Jun left?"

　"Back to your Majesty, Qin Jun has already left.

　According to the news we inquired, the Qin army set off for the north yesterday and left here. "

　A middle-aged Yan general came over and reported to Zang Tuhui.

　"Just go." Zang Tu relaxed after hearing this.

　But immediately, Zang Tu's face changed. He knew that Qin's army was heading north, and they were probably heading for his capital.

　"Go, let's go too."

　Thinking of this, Zang Tu couldn't stay in the forest for a moment, and immediately led the remnants of the [-] Yan army out of the forest and headed north.

　"My lord, are we going back to Ji County?"

　On the way, General Yan asked Zang Tu.

　"Let's not go to Ji County, now the Qin army has probably surrounded Ji County, and we can't enter the city even if we rush back.

　Let's go to Zhuo County and look for Old General Wu.

　I only hope that Wen Yue can hold on in Ji County, and we still have a chance in this battle. "
