The Chu army was in desperate situation.

This time, going north to Youyan was a bold attempt by Xiang Yu to break the unfavorable military situation of the Chu army. Youyan was the closest to Chu State and the only pasture that had not yet fallen into the hands of Qin State. If it could successfully occupy the territory of the former Yan, especially the two lush pastures in Yuyang and Liaodong, the Chu army would no longer be subject to the lack of war horses and compete with the powerful Qin on the wider battlefield in the north.

The formation of the Chu army's sharp cavalry made Xiang Yu fall into greater danger while seeing hope. The Huns' southern invasion caught the Chu army off guard and suffered heavy losses.

Jixian.

In the Chu army camp in the city, Xiang Zhuang had a tight face and was inspecting his subordinates' lineup. During this period, the Chu army's military discipline was so severe that Xiang Zhuang could do was to restrain his subordinates. At the same time, he had to do everything possible to launch several sneak attacks on the Hun camp at night to obtain some food to satisfy his hunger.

"Major General, if we continue to be trapped, we will probably be like the people in the city. Instead of waiting for death, we might as well fight him to the death--!" A confidant captain next to Xiang Zhuang held his sword tightly and advised him quietly.

Xiang Zhuang's subordinate.

The number of people at the most has dropped sharply to more than 6,000 now. If they continue to be hungry, there will be even fewer soldiers who can fight. If the Huns attack, they will disperse first.

"Wait for another three days. In three days, if there is no news of reinforcements, we will protect the overlord and fight out." Xiang Zhuang's face twitched when he stood up, and his days of hunger made his strong body shaking.

Chu Army in Jixian.

Xiang Yu's personal army was the strongest, but this army had only a thousand people. Secondly, Xiang Zhuang's troops were the most powerful. If they wanted to successfully break through the layers of encirclement of the Huns on the periphery, without Xiang Zhuang's support, Xiang Yu would never be able to escape.

Luanshui.

Just two hours after the arrival of Gan Yong, the inspected Huns discovered that a strange and familiar army in black armor unexpectedly appeared, making the long-term battle-wearing Huns as if they were facing a great enemy.

Not all the Huns were not very knowledgeable. The unique symbols of the Qin army, the harsh faces and the fearsome crossbows, all indicate that this is a force that cannot be despised.

Xubuhun, the king of Youguli, who was responsible for the periphery, has been proud recently and unexpectedly annihilated nearly 20,000 people from Zhou Lan's army in the Chu army, which made Xubuhun's reputation reach the left and right wise kings, and Maodun was unable to bear the ill recently. The important task of commanding the armies of various tribes was naturally carried out by Xubuhun.

South of Jixian.

When Xubuhun received the news that a part of the Qin army had advanced to Luanshui, he was fighting fiercely on another battlefield. Men should not only be majestic on the battlefield, but also be majestic on women.

"King Guli, this Qin army is very strange, with only five or six thousand people. But they dare to go deep into the hinterland of our Great Huns. What are they relying on? Are they just relying on crossbows, or are there other Qin army lying dormant?" the military supervisor Zang Yan persuaded.

"Zang Yan, you are afraid of being beaten by the Qin people. Just a few thousand people can fight in the wild, and you can do the number of Great Hun cavalry. Come and gather people to encircle and annihilate this Qin thief." Xubuhun got up from a beautiful Yan woman in front of Zang Yan. The object under his crotch shook and dripped a few drops of turbid white liquid.

Zang Yan followed Maodun's order and came to Xubuhun, called comfort, but in fact, he was a military supervisor. However, his words obviously did not serve as a warning. On the contrary, Xubuhun was very disgusted with Zang Yan, a guy who regarded himself as a Hun. It was no wonder that a person from a foreign race called him a Hun. This shameless guy was not only Xubuhun and didn't want to like him, but also other Hun generals. He also kept away from Zang Yan.

On the banks of the Luan River.

A war of encirclement and annihilation and anti-encirclement and annihilation began.

Under Gan Yong's command, Qin crossbow soldiers coldly faced batches of approaching Xiongnu cavalry with dense crossbow formations. When the arrogant Xiongnu cavalry approached with a group charge formation, they were hit by the arrow formation.

A stout Hun centurion shouted. He urged the horse to rush forward. In his heart, he longed for the glory of killing the enemy's head, which would give his tribe a generous reward and gain the advantage in the subsequent grassland survival competition. However, the next moment, the warriors of this small tribe regretted it.

"Prepare, let it go!"

"Let it go again!"

"The third group, rush!"

The three-stage attack tactics of the Qin crossbow soldiers made the Huns' fierce attack a complete failure. The war horse under the centurion's crotch fell to the ground in this rain of arrows. The war horse's helpless front hooves fell to his knees, causing the horse, who was not too careful to be warned, to throw it high and unexpectedly roll into the front of the Qin crossbow formation.

"ah!"

The Hun centurion struggled to get up dizzyly. When he opened his eyes and saw crossbows aiming at him, his eyes were finally filled with fear.

Unfortunately, it's too late.

As the Huns stood up, several arrows pierced straight into his hot body. In an instant, his strong and powerful body trembled for a few times, and then fell backwards to the ground weakly.

Sky.

It is still blue, like the blue lake on the north seashore of my hometown.

Unfortunately, I can never go back.

The moment he closed his eyes, the Hun centurion was filled with regret.

The first attack of the Huns rushed forward with an arrogant and wild attacking posture, trying to disperse the Qin army, dominated by infantry advantages, with the wild advantages of the cavalry. Unfortunately, their efforts had to be declared terminated when they finally approached the Qin army's formation 200 steps away.

Just now, the lucky and unlucky Hun centurion was the one who rushed to the front, while the other Hun cavalry fled in a panic in front of the endless rain of arrows.

"Infantrymen come out and collect arrows quickly." Ma Jin's voice was loud. Under his command, teams of Qin infantry holding long beryllium and spears quickly passed the crossbowmen's army formation and arrived at the battlefield of death where the Huns fell to the ground.

After the Qin infantrymen who had just arrived, they did not even look at whether the enemy soldiers on the ground were dead or not. They just cooperated with one spear to stab the head first, and the other cut off the head, and the third one pulled out the arrows that shot into the body. The other two were responsible for the surrounding vigilance.

The screams rang out again on the battlefield.

This time, the wounded Huns who tried to pretend to be dead and escaped their lives. They thought they could retreat until the next attack came, but they did not expect the Qin army to kill so hard that they became the most unfortunate one on the battlefield.

——.

"What sound?" Xubuhun, the King of Youguli, who was located in the back of the Huns and was proud to command the battle, finally heard a familiar scream and screaming sound in front of him, and couldn't help but ask.

"Master, no, most of the two thousand elite cavalry that were rushing into the formation were shot and killed by the Qin people, and only more than three hundred cavalry escaped. What should I do?" Before Subuhun could react, a Xiongnu commander covered in blood stumbled and ran back.

"Everyone is dead, why are you running back?" Subu Hun roared angrily, drew out his sharp sword and slashed the head of the timid leader.

Blood gushed out of the headless cavity.

After spraying for a while, the lifeless corpse fell down suddenly.

"The Great Huns only have warriors, no cowards, Qin thieves have organic crossbows, our strong horses, people come, siege me from all sides, and will not stop until they break the Qin formation." Subu Hun, who was red-eyed, shouted, waved the sword that was splattering blood in his hand, and commanded teams of Xiongnu cavalry to rush forward.

Human life is sometimes the least valuable.

In the face of glory, not to mention the lives of one person, it is the lives of hundreds or thousands of people. In the eyes of Hun nobles like Subuhun, it is just a string of numbers.

The Qin army's crossbow is very powerful.

However, crossbow arrows are limited. Similarly, after multiple consecutive rounds of launch, mechanical failures such as machine scraping and damage will occur. According to common sense, Xubuhun, who infers the continuous combat power of the Qin army, decided to use rounds of continuous attacks to eliminate the Qin army's arrows and crossbows. He believed that as long as there were problems with the crossbows and arrows on the Qin army, the resistance of the Qin army would end.
