Chapter 286 Soldiers never tire of cheating

In order to return to his own territory, Li Ji attacked the barriers of Daliang Mountain. After a fierce battle, the Jin army suffered heavy losses. In the end, he had no choice but to withdraw his troops temporarily.

At the same time, all fronts of the Qin army began to slowly shrink toward the Daliang Mountain, and eventually, a situation of surrounding 60,000 Jin troops with 80,000 troops was formed.

It was completely controlled outside the barriers of Daliang Mountain, and it was in a Triangle Valley about 35 miles long.

If it were a wide open plain, surrounding 80,000 and 60,000, it would be impossible to complete, but here, the Qin army had all geographical advantages.

Su Yi lured the enemy into depth, cut off supplies, and implemented the strategic goal of counter-encirclement. He perfectly used the mountain terrain and the careful deployment between various dangerous and narrow roads, and could not do anything between first-class commanders.

The next day at noon.

Triangle Valley, the tent of the Jin army commander.

The deputy general carried the curtain in. After seeing Li Ji, he first clasped his fists and saluted, and then moved his mouth: "General, it's almost noon, and the soldiers below all complained."

Understanding what he meant, Li Ji closed his eyes deeply and then asked, "How many war horses are there?"

"After our army crossed the Baihe River west, we had a great battle with the Qin army. Later, we were ambushed in Xuanshi Valley, and the cavalry was seriously damaged, with only a few thousand cavalry." The deputy general returned.

"Kill it, but be sure to leave three thousand cavalry to break through." Li Ji said.

"But this..." the deputy general said in embarrassment: "If three thousand cavalry are left behind, it will probably only last for one day. Moreover, our army is at the bottom of the valley and the nearby mountains are all occupied by the Qin army. There are no weeds to eat, and there is no source of water."

"What do you think of?" Li Ji said in a panic: "Tell the soldiers! After lunch, go to the right and start a breakthrough!"

"No!" The deputy general took the order and left.

Su Yi guessed correctly. Seeing that the barriers in Daliang Mountain are unbreakable, Li Ji will definitely turn to attack other places.

But at this time, the 60,000 Jin troops could no longer get out of this Triangle Valley, but Li Ji didn't know it yet.

He ordered the army, and after 60,000 Jin troops barely filled their stomachs, they moved to the right gate again.

At the beginning, nothing happened during the Jin army's march, and it was quiet, but when it was about to leave the valley and the road became relatively narrow, there was no doubt that countless Qin troops stood up on the mountains on both sides.

The clamor made Li Ji unable to help but tie the reins, and then looked up at the surroundings.

Seeing the black armored red tassels all over the mountains, he couldn't help but widen his eyes: "Why are there ambushers here!"

All the soldiers of the Jin army were panicked and began to look around and were at a loss.

Some soldiers also began to shout in surprise:

"It's the Qin army! It's over! We are surrounded by the Qin army-"

"What a panic! If you dare to disrupt our morale, you will be killed immediately!" Some generals were there angrily shouting.

At this moment, on a commanding height on the mountain on the left, Su Yi walked out slowly. He was wearing a general armor and a cloak. After coming out, he directly stared at Li Ji below and asked with a smile:

"General Li Ji, don't be fine."

"Su-Yi!" Li Ji looked at him and immediately gritted his teeth. The two had faced each other several times before, and they talked and sarcastically, so they naturally knew each other.

Seeing his appearance, Su Yi smiled again: "It seems that the general is surprised and angry."

"The King of Qin is the king of a country! You, Su Yi, are the commander of a military army! The king and his minister have conspired to commit fraud! What's the skill!" Li Ji roared angrily.

"Haha." Su Yi smiled again and said calmly:

"I have heard that generals have been familiar with military books since childhood, so don't they hear that soldiers are never tired of cheating?"

As he said, he said again: "General Li Ji, in today's battle situation, the Jin army has been killed. If the battle continues, there will be more casualties. I advise you to order your headquarters to abandon your sword and armor and lie down on the ground to surrender to avoid self-inflicting mistakes. Otherwise, there will be only a dead end!"

"A man insulted me too much!" Hearing this, Li Ji could not bear it. After gritting his teeth, he immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and roared angrily: "Kill! Kill me-"

With his orders, the Jin army had no choice but to roar, and then began to climb and charge towards the mountains on both sides.

"Shoot the arrow!" Su Yi's face on the mountain turned cold and he waved his right hand forward.

As he moved, the flag was shaken. The Qin soldiers who had already hunched their bows and arrows immediately let go of their fingers. For a moment, thousands of arrows were fired at the foot of the mountain and launched a volley.

The sharp rain of arrows came over, hitting the low with high, which was simply too easy. After the Qin army in the front row shot the arrow, they immediately retreated and alternated with the back row. Then, another rain of arrows was about to come.

There was already a roar in the valley. Many soldiers of Jin soldiers rushed to the bottom of the mountains on both sides and had not had time to climb, but were already tied into hedgehogs.

Someone just put his hands on the hillside and was directly crushed by a huge rolling stone, vomiting blood and dying...

This was a tragic ambush. Although the Jin army was numerous, they were completely passive in the terrain and had no power to fight back. If you want to rush forward, you have to pile up your lives!

But how could I get up in this situation?

Not long after, at the foot of the mountain and in the valley, there were corpses that fell all over the ground, and even carved feathers were everywhere, and rocks were rolling everywhere, some of which were pressed against the dead bodies.

The eyes were filled with blood. The deputy general of the Jin army rushed to Li Ji while swinging his sword to block the arrows and said anxiously: "General! The Qin army relies on the mountains and the ground is difficult to climb. Our soldiers cannot attack at all. If they continue to fight like this, the entire army will be wiped out!"

Li Ji was also angry with Su Yi before. After calming down, he quickly said: "Hurry! Stop attacking the mountain and rush out of the Qin army to ambush!"

"Yes!" the deputy general responded hurriedly.

"The General has an order! Stop attacking the mountain! The whole army rushed out of the valley-"

The soldiers of Jin army had long since no longer wanted to attack the mountain, because that was no different from seeking death. When they received this military order, everyone almost turned around immediately. With the desire to survive, they even shouted: "Come on—"

Three thousand cavalry began to fight to the forefront, and a piece of dust was rolled up as the war horses stormed at lightning speed.

The arrows above the head were still shooting down from time to time. After the charge, many Jin troops immediately screamed and fell down.

Soon, the cavalry was about to rush out of the valley, but at this moment, a rope suddenly stretched out on the ground, and the front row of cavalry was still running hard, so how could they react? The war horse was instantly tripped by the rope, and amid the neighing sound, the knight on the horse was also thrown away.
