Chapter 450: Battle of Qinhua

Lian Po stood at Kanghou Pass, watching the Qin cavalry being forced to follow suit, and nodded.

The speed, archery, and organizational efficiency of the Yuezhi cavalry were several levels higher than those of the other side, and they were no worse than the elite cavalry of Zhao. This Hua family cavalry, which had no reputation, was so powerful. Then how powerful could the super army that was rumored in Handan City to be able to crush the elite cavalry of Zhao and fight 500 Zhao soldiers with 5,000 men without losing a single soldier be?

The first impression of the Yuezhi cavalry on everyone was flexibility and speed. It took nearly ten minutes for the 50,000 Qin troops to split up. At this time, they found that several Yuezhi cavalry teams quickly merged. They rushed to the farthest Qin cavalry team. The Qin cavalry team was not in a dominant position in numbers and was killed by the Yuezhi cavalry and retreated step by step. Waiting for the Qin cavalry to come up again, the Yuezhi cavalry quickly separated again, leaving them with a distant back.

The two sides were in a stalemate for half an hour. During this period, the Qin elite soldiers approached many times, but the Yuezhi cavalry fled flexibly. Seeing this, Bai Qi asked half of the Qin elite soldiers to deal with the Yuezhi cavalry. As a result, he really experienced the difficulty of dealing with light cavalry.

Without the Qin cavalry to contain them, the Yuezhi cavalry was more relaxed. Seeing the Qin elite soldiers arranged in battle formation, they watched from a distance, waiting for the next move of the Qin elite soldiers.

As soon as the Qin elite soldiers approached the Yuezhi cavalry, the Yuezhi cavalry shot a round of arrows. When the Qin elite soldiers raised their large shields and the archers in the back row were ready to fight back, the Yuezhi cavalry left again.

The Yuezhi cavalry seemed so calm, and occasionally they could perform the following riding skills such as extreme galloping and rapid shooting. After a while, the Qin elite soldiers lost hundreds of soldiers, but they had no way to deal with the Yuezhi cavalry.

Bai Qi was among the elite soldiers of Qin State, and his eyebrows could not help but frown. Although Qin State now had an absolute advantage, it could not be said that it could completely relax. The 20,000 elite cavalry of Zhao State was not easy to deal with. The newly appeared 30,000 cavalry seemed to be grassland cavalry. He was very surprised that they actually helped Zhao State.

At this time, Bai Qi saw the elite cavalry of Zhao State appear, and he hurriedly asked the elite soldiers of Qin State to break away from the entanglement with the Yuezhi cavalry and drive towards Kanghou Pass. These grassland cavalry were all light cavalry, with fast speed, but they were definitely not as good as the Central Plains cavalry in a hard battle. He asked 50,000 cavalry to entangle the Yuezhi cavalry. As long as the elite soldiers of Qin State captured Kanghou Pass, Qin State would have won completely.

The Yuezhi cavalry hurriedly retreated when they saw the 50,000 Qin cavalry coming up to entangle them. They also kept retreating when the Qin cavalry approached them, as if they were just here to help the elite cavalry of Zhao State, and it would be enough to entangle the Qin cavalry.

All the Qin army also felt that the final decisive battle would be between 100,000 elite soldiers of Qin State and 20,000 elite cavalry of Zhao State. Zhao's elite cavalry came to Qin's elite soldiers, and after several charges and tests, they did not really launch an attack. Seeing this, Bai Qi ordered Qin's elite soldiers to approach Kanghou Pass. Zhao's elite cavalry did not dare to let Qin's elite soldiers take Kanghou Pass, otherwise their retreat would be blocked and they would be completely at a disadvantage.

But Zhao's elite cavalry did not seem to be in a hurry at all. They kept making tentative attacks around Qin's elite soldiers and kept following Qin's elite soldiers to approach Kanghou Pass. Seeing this, Bai Qi suddenly had a bad premonition, but he didn't know where this premonition came from.

"General Bai, look!" The general next to him pointed to the direction of the Yuezhi cavalry and said to Bai Qi.

I saw that the Yuezhi cavalry ten miles away suddenly began to charge at the Qin cavalry. Didn't they hold back the Qin cavalry? Why did they suddenly take the initiative to fight with the Qin cavalry?

Many Qin generals looked at the Yuezhi cavalry charging at the Qin cavalry from a distance. They found that the Yuezhi cavalry actually left about 10,000 people and horses to choose to retreat. This operation puzzled everyone.

"Do they want to quickly repel 50,000 Qin cavalry with 20,000 troops, and then defeat 100,000 Qin elite soldiers together with Zhao's elite cavalry?" said a general beside Bai Qi.

"No matter what, as long as we take Kanghou Pass, Zhao's resistance will inevitably collapse quickly. There are no more than 5,000 defenders at Kanghou Pass now. We only need two hours to take it down." A Qin Xiantian general said easily.

The Qin elite soldiers continued to advance towards Kanghou Pass. At this time, Bater led 20,000 Yuezhi cavalry to quickly kill into the Qin cavalry formation. The two cavalry regiments quickly merged together. Because the Qin cavalry had an advantage in number, everyone saw that the Yuezhi cavalry disappeared in the Qin cavalry formation.

But everyone noticed a strange thing. The Yuezhi cavalry charged from north to south, and the Qin cavalry met from south to north. As a result, when the entire Qin cavalry surrounded the Yuezhi cavalry in the middle, the entire battlefield slowly began to move southward.

In less than ten minutes, the shadow of Yuezhi cavalry appeared in the rear of Qin cavalry. Slowly, Yuezhi cavalry appeared in the rear of Qin cavalry. Countless Yuezhi cavalry rushed out from this gap, and their leather armor was stained with blood.

In less than a few minutes, all Yuezhi cavalry rushed out of the Qin cavalry regiment. They rushed south for more than two miles and slowed down their horses. Bater rode on a BMW and looked at the enemy in the distance quietly. Just one charge had already made the enemy's formation chaotic. The enemy also knew the importance of cavalry combat. Some generals began to lead their cavalry to move north. Only by keeping a distance from the Yuezhi cavalry and organizing the formation again could they launch a charge against the Yuezhi cavalry. Otherwise, they would be completely overwhelmed. It was thought that this grassland cavalry would not be very strong in hard combat, but the result was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

The Yuezhi cavalry lost only a few hundred people in this charge, while the Qin cavalry lost more than 3,000. When the Qin cavalry began to withdraw, the battle area was already full of Qin soldiers.

Bater saw that all the Yuezhi cavalry behind him were ready, so he urged his horse to charge at the Qin cavalry again. The Qin cavalry was much weaker than he thought. The Yuezhi cavalry he led was one level higher than the opponent, so it should be very easy to defeat the opponent.

The Qin cavalry was still in the retreat formation. When they saw the Yuezhi cavalry attack again, they began to order all the cavalry to charge. If they didn't charge, they could only wait to be overwhelmed by the opponent.

However, many Qin cavalry who were still in chaos couldn't even find their own squads. They saw that the front had started to charge and could only follow. Half of the Qin cavalry had not yet charged, and the Yuezhi cavalry had quickly rushed to the central army. The Qin cavalry fell off their horses and disappeared in the endless horseshoes.

Many Qin cavalry hadn't reacted yet, and the Yuezhi cavalry came in again. They raised their spears and charged at the Yuezhi cavalry. Seeing that every Yuezhi cavalryman was above the Great Perfection of Kaiyuan Realm, it was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep to deal with their ordinary cavalrymen whose average combat power was not enough to reach the Great Perfection of Quen Ti Realm. A Qin soldier stabbed a Yuezhi cavalryman in the chest with a spear. With the defense of leather armor, the Yuezhi cavalryman would definitely be pierced through.

However, the Qin cavalryman suddenly felt a strong force coming from his hand. The opponent was a Qidong Realm. The [Gold Silk Soft Armor] plus the Qi body protection actually made the Qin cavalryman fall off the horse. Before he could exclaim, he was stabbed in the chest by another Yuezhi cavalryman. Countless Yuezhi cavalrymen stepped over him. When the last Yuezhi cavalryman rode over his body, no one could recognize him.

Bater led the Yuezhi cavalry's second charge. There were already groups of cavalrymen who began to flee everywhere. When he organized the charge formation for the third time, the entire Qin cavalry no longer had the courage to continue fighting with them. The chaotic Qin cavalry began to move gradually southward, and the speed of movement was getting faster and faster.

When Bater arrived 500 meters away from the Qin cavalry during his third charge, he saw that some cavalrymen in the Qin central army had already accelerated their escape speed. Some saw the Yuezhi cavalry coming and were ready to charge and fight. Some stood still, not knowing which team they should follow. Others began to flee northward and to the sides of the army. The entire Qin cavalry quickly became extremely chaotic.

The Yuezhi cavalry saw this and quickly divided into dozens of teams. They quickly rushed into the Qin cavalry formation and chased those soldiers who dared to resist. Seeing those rebels being quickly submerged under the charge of the Yuezhi cavalry, many people had only one thought at this time - escape.

The Yuezhi cavalry chased the Qin cavalry from north to south and fled all the way south. They killed about 5,000 Qin cavalrymen in three charges. The remaining 40,000 Qin cavalrymen had no ability to organize resistance. The power of cavalry without a team was basically zero. They fled all the way south without noticing that they were getting closer and closer to their rear army.

Some frightened cavalrymen quickly rushed towards their rear army. Among the fleeing cavalrymen, one captain shouted that they should not rush towards their own formation, but who would listen to this at this time? If they fled slowly, they would die. As long as they could escape into their rear army and have the chariot formation to block them, they could survive.

At this time, in the Qin sharp soldiers' formation, all the Qin generals opened their mouths wide. The 50,000 Qin cavalrymen only lasted two rounds under the charge of the 20,000 grassland cavalrymen. This cavalry's hard-fighting strength was stronger than their free-fighting ability.

"General Bai, what should we do now? The cavalrymen have been defeated and are fleeing towards the rear army. If they disperse the rear army chariot formation, our 150,000 rear army may be completely dispersed." A Qin general looked at Bai Qi and said.

"I don't know where Lian Po found such a special force. The enemy left 10,000 people just to drive the Qin defeated soldiers to the rear army's auxiliary troops. Now we can only hope that our rear army can hold on. Most of the Qin elite soldiers are infantry. It is too late to rescue them now. Besides, we are surrounded by Zhao's elite cavalry. We should speed up the capture of Kanghou Pass. As long as we can take Kanghou Pass, Lian Po's special force will be meaningless." Bai Qi said.

At this point, the Qin elite soldiers still had no worries. Whether it was the 50,000 cavalry of Qin or the 150,000 auxiliary soldiers, they were all surrendered soldiers from many countries. It was just that the Qin generals were in charge of commanding them. The tough battles still depended on the Qin elite soldiers themselves.
