Chapter 134: Cannon fodder troops

(First of all, I would like to thank all the book friends who rewarded me in July. It was you who made me smile when I was typing; and then I would like to express my gratitude to Sanjiang Niang for her steadfastness in resolutely rejecting my advances for the sixth time. Well, how about the third one?

Seven times, in conflict!)

Jiuhou was frightened and uneasy.

After hesitating for a moment, he quietly got off his horse and came to a sacrificial place among the Guifang tribe's team. Then, he called his attendants and said a few words.

After a while, a little man covered in black robes with only two eyes walked out of the crowd and came to Jiu Hou. He didn't say a word, but just stood there, as if

She was waiting for Lord Jiu to salute her.

"High Priest, the war is about to begin. Please move to a safe place first. The athletes may not be able to take care of you later——!" Jiu Hou knelt down respectfully and solemnly touched his head to the ground.

"Jiuhou, I'm worried that the war will be unfavorable, but it doesn't matter. Wherever the sons are, I will be there!" A clear and sweet voice came from behind the black robe, which made people want to see their true appearance.

"High Priest, tell me the truth. In this war, our Guifang clan may suffer a catastrophe. If the High Priest does not agree to leave, I will have you kidnapped and left. In addition, I will leave a team of warriors behind.

Once the war goes bad, they will protect you and the children of your clan and escape the pursuit of the Qin people!" Jiu Hou lowered his voice, with a faint and peaceful smile on his face.

At this time, no one would suspect that Jiuhou, the leader of the Guifang tribe, had decided to quit, but in fact, the leader, who was in his sixties, was in charge of his funeral arrangements.

"Then, let's wait for the big leader to leave together!" The man in black robe was still hesitant. It was obvious that she couldn't bear such an important burden.

"High Priest, I am old, but you are still young. If the Guifang tribe wants to survive, it is not old men like me who rely on it, but you. I believe that my vision will not be wrong -!" Jiuhou smiled bitterly.

He smiled and said.

Watching the little black figure leave, Jiu Hou let out a long breath. When he got on his horse again, he seemed to be back to his youth again.

"Nine tribes of ghosts, will you follow me to kill the enemy?" Jiu Hou pulled out his bronze sword and shouted sharply.

"Kill!" After a burst of shouts, the athletes of each tribe took the lead in urging their horses to charge towards the Qin army's formation. Jiuhou could no longer care about the temptation. He decided to strike first and concentrate all his strength to defeat the Qin army who came from afar.

Caught off guard.

——.

The galloping, neighing, and shouting of war horses, intertwined with the gurgling sound of the Dinghe River, formed a three-dimensional war scene that was shocking.

Compared with the lively tribal coalition, the Qin army was much quieter. Apart from the heavy breathing of the soldiers, there was almost no other sound.

The location of the Chinese Army.

Li Yuan stared coldly at the increasingly approaching tribal coalition, with a disdainful smile on his face. Guifang was not the Huns, and the enemy general opposite was obviously not a famous general. He had experience in controlling a coalition of multiple tribes.

What is the difference between insisting on attacking despite obvious deficiencies and seeking death under such circumstances?

"Order: Crossbow troops, move forward and fire three rounds quickly——!" Upon hearing Li Yuan's order, the captain of the Chinese army behind him immediately raised a flag.

"Order: Infantry pikemen, step forward twenty steps, raise your head and stab -!"

"Another order: cavalry troops, surround and kill the enemy's small forces——!"

"The rest of the troops will follow the Chinese army and press forward——!"

Signals from the Qin Army's central army were quickly typed out, and were conveyed to the captains and military princes of each military formation, and then to the ears of ordinary soldiers in the formation.

Compared with the rigorous Qin army, the coalition generals of Guifang and other tribes had no idea what they were going to do next. All they could do was to follow the large troops and rush to kill. Even if there were traps and fire pits in front of them, they could only cover their heads.

Jump down.

Field battle!

The Qin army is not afraid of any opponent.

Even the most powerful cavalry unit of this era could not get any advantage in the face of the Qin army's rigorous and orderly multi-arms joint combat advantages.

A well-trained army that regards military discipline as its life is a war machine that is running.

Even death could not stop the Qin army's generals.

——.

north.

The battle was fierce.

In Fufeng City, the Qin military captain Han Xin who stayed behind was talking to veteran Xin Sheng. Xin Sheng had just wiped out the remaining small Chu army fleeing troops in Qishan and was preparing to escort these prisoners to the Longxi area.

After taking control of Yongqi, the Qin army abolished the previous practice of killing and surrendering soldiers. The strong labor force was an important manpower reserve that was urgently needed at any time.

"Old General Xin, Han has something to ask for, and I don't know whether I should say it or not?" Han Xin greeted Xin Sheng to the distinguished position on the left with a sincere attitude, and then said.

"Colonel Han is serious. Colleagues like you and me, why talk about anything else? Just tell me if you have anything to say?"

The courage to agree to stay.

"General Xin, Han's subordinate, has five thousand soldiers. Most of them are newly recruited soldiers, and their combat strength needs to be improved. If Liu Bang's army invades in large numbers now, Han may not be able to support it for too long. Therefore, I want to ask General Xin

Borrow some troops and use them as a spearhead to defend against the incoming enemy." Han Xin said solemnly.

"What, Lieutenant Han, are you kidding me? Xin Sheng's subordinates are all second-line heavy troops and are not strong in combat. How can they be worthy of the important task of defending the city?" Xin Sheng changed his face when he heard this.

"The old general misunderstood. The soldiers Han wanted to borrow were not the baggage soldiers, but the Chu army prisoners of war escorted by the old general." When Han Xin saw Xin Sheng's expression, he knew there was a misunderstanding and hurriedly explained.

"Prisoners of war, how can they go to the battlefield? Aren't Colonel Han afraid that these prisoners will defect on the battlefield?"

untie.

"The old general is very worried. However, Han has an idea. According to the investigation, among the Chu army, they all gathered together in one place. They have many brothers, many relatives, and many fellow villagers. Now, Han only needs those who have

Brothers, if your relatives are in the army, if you have two brothers, you can choose one. If you have three brothers, you can choose two to serve in the army. You can choose as many as you can. I wonder if the old general may agree." Han Xin explained.

.

"Haha, Lieutenant Han wants to use the hostages as coercion to make these Chu army prisoners of war die. Such an idea is really wonderful. In this case, I will accept it——!" Xin Sheng nodded, and Han Xin chose

These Chu soldiers are obviously used as cannon fodder. Once Liu Bang comes to attack, these Chu soldiers will be killed on the front line.
