Qin Emperor Ziying

Chapter 158 Chu Shang
Chased by the cavalry of the Qin Army and Li Xin's vanguard, the fleeing Chu army was harvested piece by piece like straw.

Riding on a war horse and walking in the front, Jing Qi saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart, and kept yelling at the Chu army to stop fleeing, and set up a formation to fight to the death with the Qin army.

And Jing Qi himself was waving his whip and desperately urging the horse to gallop forward.

Facing the turbulent flow of people behind him, if he stopped, he might become the first commander-in-chief of the first army to be trampled to death by his own side. At this moment, he could only drift with the crowd in grief and indignation.

Gradually, most of the Qin army also caught up from the two wings, forming an outflanking state of the Chu army.

Some soldiers of the Chu army ran and suddenly found in horror that their left, right, and even the front had been blocked by the Qin army.

The remaining 20 to [-] Chu troops were made dumplings by a full [-] Qin troops. It was not until then that the fleeing Chu troops were forced to stop.

"The descendants will not be killed!" Li Xin, who was covered in blood like a god of killing, rushed his war halberd to the ground, and shouted loudly at the surrounded Chu army!

"Those who surrender will not be killed!", "Those who surrender will not be killed!"...

The 20 Qin army immediately waved their weapons and shouted together. 20 bloody men shouted together, and the billowing sound hit the sky, as if it wanted to disperse all the clouds in the sky.

Many soldiers of the Chu army turned pale with horror in front of such momentum.

"I am a big man of Chu, I would rather die than surrender!" With a low but energetic response, the front of the Chu army slowly opened a narrow passage, and a veteran with grizzled hair and beard walked through it with his chest held high. out.

This person is the commander-in-chief of the Chu army, Grand Sima Jingqi of Chu!

Although Jing Qi lacked talent in military command, he was born in the royal family of Chu, but he was by no means weak.

What Jing Qi said was strong and powerful, which could not help but arouse a trace of blood in the Chu army, but the next incident suddenly extinguished this newly sprouted blood.

"I surrender, don't kill me!" A well-fed fat man rolled off a very strong horse, ran out of the queue regardless of his image, and fell to his knees with a plop In front of Li Xin.

Jing Qi took a closer look, and found that the fat man was one of the lords who accompanied him on the expedition—Jing Xi, Lord Qing Ye.

Jing Xi was also from the royal family of Chu, so he was still his nephew.

Seeing this, Jing Qi's eyes were so angry that his eyes were about to burst. A respected lord surrendered in public without dignity, which undoubtedly dealt a huge blow to the morale of the Chu army.

Although Li Xin didn't know Jing Xi, judging from his "plump" figure, he was by no means an ordinary person, and he must be a high-ranking member of Chu State.

Hastily helped Jing Xi up, and said solemnly: "General Gao Yi, save the army from attacking. I don't know what the name of this general is?"

For Jing Xi who was the first to surrender, Li Xin naturally showed great enthusiasm.

"Villain Chu Qingye Jun Jingxi." Seeing Li Xin's attitude, Jingxi felt relieved at the moment, as her life was saved.

Now that he has surrendered, he naturally has to maximize his role, and Jing Xi is very clear about this.

Thinking of this, Jing Xi immediately turned his head and shouted with all his strength in the direction of the Chu army: "My subordinate Qingye, why don't you quickly descend!"

There are still 4000 to [-] troops under Qing Yejun's command. Seeing that their lords have surrendered, these troops naturally have no reason to resist. They put down their weapons and walked out of the Chu army formation to surrender to the Qin army.

With Jingxi, the lord, who played a good leading role, seeing that the surrender could really save their lives, two more lords led their subordinates to surrender to the Qin army one after another.

Scatteredly put down their weapons, and there were not a few who surrendered to the Qin army.

At this time, after the two generals standing behind Jing Qi looked at each other, one of them stepped forward and said to Jing Qi:

"Big Sima, let's surrender if we can't do it for ourselves!"

The person who spoke was named Qu Ding, who was also one of the confidantes of the follower Jing Qi who came to take up the post from Shouchun.

Hearing this, Jing Qi was even more furious, and said angrily: "Even if I fight to the death, I will never beg for the head of the Qin people."

As he spoke, he wanted to pull out the long sword in his waist.

"I will kill you shameless person first."

His most trusted confidants all wanted to beg for surrender, Jing Qi was naturally furious, and as he spoke, he wanted to stab Qu Ding with his sword.

Facing the long sword stabbed by Jing Qi, Qu Ding stood where he was, without any intention of dodging.

"呲拉" Accompanied by the sound of a sharp weapon piercing through the leather armor and piercing into the body, Jing Qi's movements suddenly froze in the middle.

Turning his head back in pain, it was another of his confidants - Qu Gu who shot.

"Da Sima, offended, you want to be loyal to the country, but we want to survive!" Qu Ding said slowly without changing his face.

With endless unwillingness, Jing Qi closed his eyes forever.

"Our army is willing to surrender!" Qu Ding and Qu Gu threw their weapons to the ground, stepped out of the ranks and shouted to Li Xin.

The main general died, and the leading general had already surrendered, so the remaining Chu army naturally followed suit.

They threw down their weapons one after another and surrendered to the Qin army.

The news of the collapse of the central camp of the Chu army and the death of Jing Qi soon spread to the Chu army on the east and west wings.

With a hole in the center, the Qin army can directly threaten the rear of the Chu army on both wings at this moment.

Under the onslaught of the Qin army regardless of casualties, the already precarious Chu army camp immediately fell into disarray.

If you continue to stay here, you will definitely be wiped out by the Qin army just like the central camp.

It must be withdrawn, and it must be withdrawn immediately.

At this time, there are two ways for the Chu army to go.

First, cross the Huai River to the south and return to the army in Shouchun.

Second, chase Xiang Yan eastward and join him.

The pros and cons of this are easy to distinguish.

At this moment, Shouchun can be said to be extremely empty, only the palace guards and some patrolling soldiers are left, there are no other soldiers at all, and all they can rely on is a city wall.

Although returning to Shouchun, the army can defend the capital, Pingyu is hundreds of miles away from Shouchun.Although it is not far away compared to the land of thousands of miles of Chu, it is very likely that they will be overtaken by the Qin army before they reach Shouchun.

However, Xiang Yan only set out for only a day, and the army will not move too fast. At most, they will live here only a hundred miles away. Moreover, Xiang Yan not only has 20 unscathed Chu troops, but Xiang Yan himself is the leader of the Chu State. A mighty general like Optimus Pillar.

When Qing didn't see Xiang Yan, Qin Jun and Chu State had a stalemate for a year and did not dare to act rashly.

In the country of Yu, returning to the army and Shouchun's defense of the country can be said to be promoted, but it is safer for Yu private to go to reconcile with Xiang Yan.
