Chapter 238 Encounter on a Narrow Road

Encounter on a narrow road.

On the battlefield, two armies meet in the same direction and at the same time in a dark night. This chance may not happen once a hundred times.

However, this time, Guan Ying and Feng Xuan collided head-on.

Thanks to being ambushed one step earlier than the Han army, being more accustomed to the experience of fighting in the mountains, and having more patience, the Ba people discovered the route of the Han army first.

At this time, due to the lack of sufficient food, most of the Han soldiers had poor night vision at night, so they had to rely on the guidance of the guides in front and holding hands one after another to cross this jungle swamp.

"Whoosh!"

A soft, almost inaudible voice sounded, accompanied by the shrill cry of the Han army guide. The Ba scout's arrow was originally intended to hit the guide's throat, but the visibility at night was too poor.

All the scouts could aim at was a blurry figure.

"Hurry, cut my butt for me -!" The guide covered his butt with one hand and waved it around in panic. The Ba people's homemade bamboo arrows were nailed to the unlucky guide's buttocks. This numb feeling made the experience

The rich guide mistakenly thought he had been bitten by a poisonous snake in the swamp.

Venomous snakes are scary.

If the wound is not treated in time, it will soon be lifeless. Dig out the ulcerated flesh of the wound, and then sprinkle some detoxifying herbs. If this simple treatment method is effective, then a life can be saved.

On the contrary, it will lead to death due to poison and death.

The guide's despair could not be understood by the Han soldiers who were inexperienced in jungle combat. When they heard the guide shouting "cut your buttocks", each one of them almost laughed out loud.

Cutting off the buttocks, what's going on? Could it be that this guide has a habit of Longyang? The random shouting of the Han army guide did not win him any help, but while the Han army was stunned, one after another black shadows emerged from the mud.

The swords that came out with a dim light were like death scythes that harvested lives, causing the unprepared Han army generals to lose consciousness in an instant.

"There are enemies."

"Enemy attack!"

It was only then that the Han generals began to realize that the guide had not been bitten by a poisonous snake at all, but had been shot in the buttocks by an arrow from an ambushing enemy.

——.

Only by taking surprise can you attack the unprepared ones.

The Han army was in chaos.

Such panic caused the Qin army to inflict maximum damage.

"kill!"

Feng Xuan shouted loudly and struggled to get up from the mud. His right hand tightly grasped the unsheathed thick-backed war sword beside him. Ba Ren, who had been lying in wait for a whole day, also vented his incomparable anger halfway.

on the opponents encountered.

"puff!"

The sharp sword fell.

He opened the mouth of a stunned soldier from his shoulder blades to his abdominal cavity, and red and hot blood splashed, drenching Feng Xuan all over.

The iron knife penetrates the bone.

Sharp as a sword.

Knives and swords play different roles on the battlefield, but in terms of close combat, the thick-backed Huanshou Dao has obvious advantages in chopping. The sword can only be used for quick stabs, and its power is incomparable to that of a sudden sword.

Their slashing and killing skills were incomparable. The Ba people, equipped with iron ring-head swords, were even more powerful on the battlefield. They were unstoppable.

Feng Xuan slashed all the way, and no fewer than ten Han soldiers fell under his sword. Based on past circumstances, the bronze sword in his hand was curled up and unusable. But tonight, although the Huanshou Sword had one,

Two places were breached, but it did not affect Feng Xuan's ability to kill people with his sword.

——.

The baby's breath hit his chest.

People are unlucky, and even a sip of cold water will clog their teeth.

Only Xia Houying and him knew about the plan of the detour and night attack. Even the three thousand soldiers under his command did not know where they were going, so there was no possibility of leaking the secret.

How did he know about the group of enemies who ambushed him halfway? Or maybe the purpose of this Qin army was the same as his own, and they planned a night attack?

The main force of Han King Liu Bang will not arrive until noon tomorrow. The more than 20,000 Han troops who served as the vanguard lost nearly 6,000 troops after the fierce battle during the day, and their morale was also very low. If this Qin army launched an attack at night,

It is very likely that the Han army will be defeated without warning.

When he thought of this, Guan Ying couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

The battlefield is a place for battles of wits and courage. Xia Houying is determined to make a desperate move. The Qin army that has the upper hand may also send a surprise force to seek the possibility of a quick victory.

Ahead, the screams became more and more intense.

Guan Ying immediately became anxious. He had already heard the screams of the Han army generals. This was obviously a sign that the war ahead was unfavorable. There were only a few generals in the Han army. If Guan Ying could not arrive at the front line in time, the Han army would be in danger.

Collapse is probably not far away.

"Who is this person with such fighting prowess that he can kill his elite soldiers in such a miserable state?" Guan Ying thought bitterly as he strode forward.

The contact point where the two armies fought.

The Han soldiers who were huddled together and retreating were already frightened. First, dozens of them were killed unexpectedly by this group of enemies who emerged from the swamp, and then they lost more than 300 soldiers in the night battle.

Soldiers, this made the already suspicious Han generals even more frightened.

"There's a ghost, everyone, run away!" When the first timid soldier abandoned his weapons and turned around to run away in fear, a great rout affecting the entire Han army was about to begin.

"A group of cowards and incompetent people." Guan Ying was filled with hatred. After the continuous defeats, the old soldiers in the Han army were either captured and killed, or they became ruffians who lost their energy and spirit. Such soldiers would be successful.

The battle is fierce enough, but when fighting hard against the odds, you will lose all your fighting spirit.

Among Guan Ying's 3,000 Han soldiers, nearly half were ruffians like this. When the Ba people killed their companions one after another like evil spirits at night, these brave soldiers in the Han army retreated.

"If anyone retreats, kill, kill, kill!" Guan Ying, who finally arrived at the front line, saw this and became furious. He stabbed a fleeing soldier next to him and shouted wildly.

There are strong enemies in front and fierce soldiers behind.

The fleeing soldiers of the Han army huddled together in a panic. After finally hearing Guan Ying's scolding from his voice, the soldiers weighed it in their minds. Finally, Guan Ying's usual ferocity began to gain the upper hand. Under extremely reluctant circumstances,

Next, the Han army began to slowly huddle forward.

——.

The Ba people moved forward indomitably.

Guan Ying's shout was like a identifying light, causing the Ba warriors who were eager to kill the enemy generals and make military exploits to pounce on him one after another.

The Qin army became more and more courageous as they fought.

It has been more than two hundred years since the country was destroyed. The bloody and fierce nature of the Ba people, Shi people, and Qiang people deeply immersed in these Daba mountainous areas was burst out at this moment.

Facing a strong enemy, the Han army became less and less willing to fight. Some of the soldiers who were more clever even took advantage of Guanying's soldiers not paying attention, lying on the ground and pretending to be dead. After the main battlefield was transferred, these soldiers escaped

The collapse of life immediately disappeared into the vast darkness.

Guan Ying was still shouting for a fierce battle, but there were fewer and fewer Han soldiers around him.

The Ba people struck again and again, each time causing dozens of Han soldiers to fall. As time went by, the vigor in Guan Ying's heart was also worn away bit by bit. This kind of psychological fatigue made this soldier

The brave generals of the Han army who had experienced hundreds of battles also began to feel despair.

"Who is that person opposite? Do you have the courage to stand up and let Grandpa Guan have a look?"

"Qin Gou, come on, come on, I'll make a profit by killing one. Killing two will be enough." Guan Ying screamed wildly, his voice desperate and weak.

Guan Ying shouted several times, but Qin General Feng Xuan seemed to turn a deaf ear and just led a group of Ba men to kill the Han army repeatedly. Seeing that no one agreed, Guan Ying opened his eyes wide in anger and thought.

I tried to look for him, but it was dark all around and I couldn't see where my opponent was.

In the face of such random encounters, the unique mutual induction between the Ba people played a very important role. This is an almost innate feeling. In contrast, the Han soldiers were unfamiliar with the tacit understanding.

A lot.

The gap widened little by little. When the Big Dipper in the east began to dazzle, Guan Ying suddenly discovered that most of his three thousand soldiers had fled, and most of the soldiers who continued to resist the Qin army's attack were injured, but they were limited to

The war supervisor was intimidated by his own soldiers, so he had to endure hardships.

"Forget it, today next year will be the taboo time for me, Lao Guan. Ru Yinhou, you have harmed Lao Guan." In despair, Guan Ying, who always looked fierce, couldn't help crying loudly.

Everyone has moments of weakness.

Compared with Liu Bang's die-hard brothers such as Xia Houying and Zhou Bo, Guan Ying, who joined later, was not loyal to Liu Bang to the extent that he could sacrifice his life for him. But now the situation is forcing Guan Ying to be trapped in a tight siege, and he can't leave even if he wants to.

No more possibility.

——.

Battle of the Swamp.

Near dawn, it finally came to an end.

The Ba people defeated the many with less, and Feng Xuan led his troops to continuously attack, completely defeating the Han army of Guanying's tribe, which had a thousand men more than himself.

Guan Ying, a fierce general of the Han army, died in this battle.

After the Ba people discovered the identity of General Guan Ying, they immediately swarmed up like sharks after smelling blood. Guan Ying's personal bravery had no chance of being used in the face of a group fight.

However, this fierce and cunning Han general proved his strength at the last moment. Before he fell in despair, more than twenty Ba warriors died in front of him.

Guan Ying died.

Xia Houying's surprise attack plan, which he had spent the whole day painstakingly laying out, was aborted. When the result was conveyed to Xia Houying, who was still dreaming, the Han King's most trusted general could not say a word for a while.

The plan that had been painstakingly accumulated went astray at the most critical step in its implementation. The destruction of the Guanying Division reduced the morale of the Han army to its lowest point. What Xia Houying had to worry about now was not how to attack the Qin army, but what method to use.
