Five hundred steps.

Four hundred and fifty steps.

Four hundred steps.

Three hundred and fifty steps!

Three hundred steps!!

When the 100,000 Chu soldiers who acted as a frontal attack entered three hundred steps away from the Qin army camp, the soldiers in the camp were already panicked because until now, their commander had not allowed the camp crossbowmen to attack the Chu army. At this time, the ferocious faces of the Chu soldiers wearing red armor could be seen!

"The long halberd, the spearman is ready to face the enemy." Li Xin finally began to issue a new military order, but this military order made many people unaware of it. In this situation where the military force is not at all superior, what is General Li thinking?

Although he was puzzled by the military orders issued by Li Xin, these Qin soldiers could only follow Li Xin's military orders. The reason is very simple, because Li Xin has a military command that represents the absolute power in the army!

Qin Junlu: Those who do not respect the general's orders shall be killed!!

When the Chu soldiers holding swords and shields in the front had already rushed into the Qin army camp one hundred and fifty steps, Li Xin narrowed his eyes and shouted: "The powerful crossbowman covered and shot from 600 to 700 steps!!"

Tens of thousands of powerful Qin crossbowmen who had been waiting for Li Xin's shooting instructions for a long time immediately launched according to the angle of Houwang Mountain. A black "cloud" suddenly rose from the Qin army camp and landed on the ground between 600 and 700 steps away from the Qin army camp with the whistling sound of death.

The Chu soldiers who happened to charge towards the Qin army camp in this area, except for a few extremely lucky guys who screamed in scattered a few screams, the other Chu soldiers shrouded in the rain of death were shot at the hornet's nest with the powerful impact of the dense rain of crossbow arrows.

The Chu army's attack formation, which was originally like a red tide rushing towards the Qin army camp, looked down from the air. The area between 600 and 700 steps away from the Qin army camp was completely cut off by crossbow arrows. The reason why this area could cut off the progress of the Chu army soldiers behind was that in addition to the dense "arrow forest" filled with half-legged "arrow forest" that made the soldiers unable to hike for a while, under the "arrow forest" that just appeared, the corpses of the Chu army soldiers who were nailed to the land in various strange postures gave the huge psychological shock to the Chu army soldiers behind. It was also the biggest reason why they stopped moving forward.

Don't be anxious if the Chu soldiers behind him didn't come up, but the other section of Chu soldiers cut off by the crossbow arrows was in trouble, because after charging more than a hundred steps, they found that their troops of less than ten thousand people were rushing to the forefront of the Qin army camp alone! And there were countless ill-intentioned Qin soldiers in the Qin army camp looking at them with a full look. It was indeed true, because in the eyes of the Qin army soldiers, these people were all military achievements that could walk and jump! (The Qin army consciously ignored these enemy bodies from the neck~~)

"Sword and shield hands, long halberd hands go and kill them! The powerful crossbow hands quickly load the arrows and prepare to support the flanks." After Li Xin saw that the plan he designed in his heart was realized, he became particularly happy, and then he smiled again on his face.

It turned out that Li Xin had a deeper understanding of the Qin army's powerful crossbow formation than others. He knew that the strong crossbows would be the strongest weapon that would destroy the world when gathered (the strong crossbows were indeed one of the most terrifying weapons in that era!). Once the time of release was wrong, the opponent would be targeted to defend. This time, the reason why Li Xin wanted the frontal army of the Chu army to travel so close to carry out a coverage strike was to maximize the results of using the strong crossbow formation for the first time before the upper generals of the Chu army led by Xiang Yan carried out targeted defense.

The result showed that Li Xin's seemingly risky action this time was indeed a successful achievement of maximizing the results. When the silenced front-facing Chu army vanguard was killed like a wind and cloud-like Qin soldiers in the camp, and Li Xin shot a brilliant crossbow arrow at the Chu army flanking the Qin army, it was initially estimated that the losses of the Chu soldiers would definitely exceed 20,000!

.......................division line...............

"Clang! Clang! Clang..."

A harsh sound of gold sound came from the Chu army's main formation. Xiang Yan knew that he had underestimated the power of the Qin army's crossbow formation this time, so he wanted to withdraw his troops and re-arrange his methods to deal with the Qin army's crossbow formation.

"The Chu army retreated!"

"Hahaha, Xiang Yan, the most powerful man of the Southern Chu barbarians, is just like that. He is not the enemy of our General Li Xin at all!"

Although Li Xin secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was not as ecstatic as those soldiers. He knew that the reason he could achieve such great results in the first battle with Xiang Yan was only because he used a powerful crossbow formation to launch a surprise attack on Xiang Yan. Xiang Yan, who suffered a loss, would inevitably make targeted solutions next time. After all, the initiative on the battlefield is in the hands of Xiang Yan, and he can only passively wait for Xiang Yan to take action.

"Father, I disappoint you." Xiang Rong, who was in charge of the Qin army camp in front, said half-kneeling on the ground, lowered his head and said depressedly.

Xiang Yan looked at the oldest son in front of him, but there was no smile on his face as before. However, when Xiang Yan recalled the "cloud of death" that rose from the Qin army camp today, Xiang Yan could only admit that the biggest reason for this failure was that he underestimated the combat power of the Qin army.

"Rong'er (Rong'er?) Get up. It is not your responsibility to be defeated in the first battle. It is because the power of the Qin army's powerful crossbow is too terrible. Faced with such things that human power cannot compete with, even if you lead the army for your father, you will never escape the defeat." Xiang Yan sighed lightly, and still let Xiang Rong fight.

"Father..." Xiang Rong was a little reluctant to speak but stopped.

Xiang Yan waved his hand: "Although we were slightly defeated by the Qin army in this battle, our advantages are still very obvious. What we have to do next is to find a way to deal with the Qin army's crossbow formation, rather than continue to be entangled in previous failures."

The crowd agreed with each other. The originally solemn atmosphere in Xiang Yan's commander became a little calmer. Everyone turned their hope to the white-haired veteran in the main position. They believed that as the commander of the army, Xiang Yan would never disappoint them.

Sure enough, after Xiang Yan held his cheek with his hands and thought for a long time, he suddenly stood up: "I didn't want to use the things transported from Qi so early. Now it seems that if I don't use these treasures, I'm afraid that even if I take over this Qin army, my army will suffer heavy losses. Forget it! Since Wang Jian didn't come, let's give it to Li Xin, a kid! Come on, we have to arrange it, and this time we must annihilate these Qin dogs in one fell swoop!"

The Chu generals were immediately overjoyed and hurriedly surrounded Xiang Yan and began to listen to Xiang Yan's strategy against the enemy.

ps: I feel my stomach hurt these two days. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve eaten Wangwang Xianbei and had a bad stomach~~(I have to eat Xianbei three times a day, at least ten small bags at a time (*^__^*))
