The Queen's Engineering Army

Chapter 31 The cavalry chases and kills
"Are you happy?" Shang Yang asked with a smile.

"Of course, I see that you are desperate today, isn't this the best thing in the world?" Young Master Ang said cheerfully.

"me?"

Shang Yang shook his head slightly, "I am cornered, nothing to worry about, and the enemy country is cornered, it is a great joy."

"Shang Yang, you're still brazen about what's going on now. How about this old man to show you a way out? If you want to follow my advice, I'll ask King Wei to keep you safe." The young master pointed at Shang Yang, showing alms look like.

"Oh, then tell me, Yang is all ears." Shang Yang smiled curiously.

"Keep incognito, continue to be my servant, and plan for me for the rest of my life."

Young Master Yan raised his head slightly. Although he hated Shang Yang to the core, he had to admit that Shang Yang had great talents, so he wanted to let Shang Yang serve him in this way.

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."

After hearing this, Shang Yang disdainfully laughed.

"What are you laughing at?" Young Master Yan narrowed his eyes and said coldly.

"I laugh at you, you are so smart. You and I were defeated in the battle, and we lost the city, the land, and the shame. If I were the king of Wei, I would have cut off your pig's head to enforce the law of the country." Shang Yang mocked.

"you!"

Young Master Ang was furious, and then his expression changed and he laughed loudly, "Shang Yang, Shang Yang, you are dying, and you are still talking like that, it's really pitiful."

"Hmph, don't worry about it."

Shang Yang snorted coldly, turned his horse's head and galloped north.

"Ha ha……."

Young Master Ang felt very relieved as he watched the desperate Shang Yang go away.

"Drive, drive."

Gong Ziqian led more than 500 Qin troops to catch up, all of them were cavalry, and more than 1000 infantry chased behind.

In order to capture Shang Yang, the formation is not small, which is enough to show the importance he attaches to Shang Yang, and he must not be allowed to escape.

Run for half a day.

Shang Yang came to a river, counted the time, and it was almost time, so he stopped and turned his horse's head, waiting for Yingqian.

Not long after, Yingqian arrived with a large group of troops and saw Shang Yang waiting by the river, and raised his hand to stop the army.

Driving the horse alone, Yingqian calculated Shang Yang's escape route and sent people to intercept him. Even if Shang Yang continued to run forward, he would be caught.

Unless he can escape to Wei State, it is impossible for him to escape.

"Mr. Shang, let's capture him without a fight."

Ying Qian's face was expressionless. In his eyes, Shang Yang was already dead.

"Young Master Qian, since I can't escape, just kill me." Shang Yang glanced at him and said in a deep voice.

"Hehe, the old man said that he would never dare to lynch Lord Shang."

"You and I have known each other for more than 30 years, can't you even give me a good time?" Shang Yang asked again.

"Shang Jun, don't talk too much, let's go back with the old man to meet you." Yingqian became impatient.

"Wait, let me have a sip of wine, and I'll go back with you." Shang Yang dismounted and took the cowhide water bag from the side of the horse.

"Mr. Shang, I know you are stalling for time. It is useless. I have sent cavalry to hunt down your people. Don't have any other fantasies." Yingqian sneered, wanting to see Shang Yang's panicked expression.

"Oh, I see." Shang Yang said lightly, without showing too much surprise, as if he had expected it.

Yingqian was very disappointed, he didn't see Shang Jun's expression of pain and loss.

"The people in Shangyu County rebelled, and more than 800 people fled to the southeast Shu Kingdom. The old man sent people to chase and kill them all, and wiped them all out."

Yingqian's face was gloomy, and he said coldly: "Mr. Shang, is it okay for this old man to report to the Lord like this?"

Shang Yang's expression was cold, he stared at Yingqian, and said with a sneer, "Young Master Qian, killing me alone is not enough, do you really want to kill them all like this?"

"Shangjun, I was ordered to suppress the rebellion and act according to Shangjun's law. Where did I go wrong? Please Shangjun, please point it out." Ying Qian asked in surprise.

"You are so cruel."

……

Shangyu County is located at the junction of Qin and Chu, half a day can reach Chu, and another day can reach Dahan Village.

"Hurry up, we will soon reach the border of Chu State."

There are guards on horseback urging.

However, with more than 800 people rushing like this, the target is too big and the speed is too slow. If there are pursuers behind, the consequences will be disastrous.

There were a few elderly people along the way who couldn't keep up with the team, so Guiguzi had no choice but to leave some dry food for them to escape by themselves.

Without the ability to survive, one can imagine the fate of these old people.

But Guiguzi had no choice.

"Sir, there are Qin cavalry chasing after three miles behind." A leather armor guard rode over to report.

"how many people?"

"About two hundred cavalry."

"two hundred?"

Guiguzi muttered.

Shang Yang has already attracted most of the main force of the Qin army, otherwise there would not be only these two hundred cavalry chasing them.

But these two hundred cavalry are not something these old and weak women and children can stop.

We must find a way to slow down the cavalry.

As long as you enter the territory of Chu State, it will be easy.

"Leave fifty young men and send out weapons to block the pursuers." Guiguzi said calmly.

"...here."

The guard hesitated for a moment, but took the order to retreat.

Because he knew that the young men who were left to resist the pursuers would most likely not survive. This was a fatal mission.

Whoever goes, whoever dies.

But for the safety of their wives and children to escape, the men had no choice, and quickly organized fifty young men.

Each person with a bronze sword or halberd stayed behind to buy time for his wife and children to escape.

As the cold wind blew, a young man raised Shang Jun's flag and it blew loudly.

With a firm gaze, he clenched the weapon in his hand and stared straight ahead.

Soon, Yingqian's deputy general led two hundred cavalry and appeared in Qing Zhuang's sight.

"...Call."

The deputy general reined in his horse and raised his hand to signal the troops to stop.

"Does this person just want to block us?" the deputy general laughed disdainfully.

From a military point of view, the young and strong with poor equipment are completely incomparable with the well-equipped Qin cavalry who have experienced wars.

A burst of charge can kill them all.

"General, those people are probably staying to die, so as to delay our pursuit." Said the centurion next to him.

"Hehe, then kill them as soon as possible!"

The lieutenant sneered, raised his hand and swung it forward.

"kill!"

Following the order, two hundred cavalry rushed over with their weapons brandished.

There was the sound of iron hooves, and the trampled ground trembled slightly.

Gudong.

The young and strong swallowed with difficulty. If they hadn't had their wives and children behind them, they would have dropped their weapons and fled in fright.

Relying in front of the chaotic rocks can effectively offset the speed advantage of the cavalry, and the impact of the cavalry will not be so strong when the soldiers meet shortly afterwards.

However, there is still an essential gap between soldiers and civilians.

The main difference is that these cavalrymen are professional soldiers who have seen blood, while Qingzhuang is just a strong common man.

"what."

"kill."

More than 200 cavalry rushed to kill one by one. Although the speed was slowed down by the rocks, the offensive was still very strong.

Blood stained the stone.

Most of the fifty young and strong fell down, and the rest were covered in blood, and many of them were also injured.

"Don't let them pass, hold them back." A middle-aged strong man raised his bronze sword and shouted.

He rushed to Qin Jun.

Others were also infected, and raised their weapons one after another to give up a suicidal attack on Qin Jun.

If there is no war, the safety of his wife and children cannot be guaranteed.

Although he died, his wife and children were safe.
