Huo Qubing pierced the soldier in front of him with a spear, then pulled the Sky-breaking Spear out of the soldier's body, then raised the spear high and shouted to the cavalry behind him:

"Follow up, those behind! Smash them to pieces!"

The Qin cavalrymen sped up one by one. The soldiers in the Chaoguo army camp woke up one after another shortly after the enemy attack. They were well-trained and immediately put on their armor, helmets, and weapons, and ran outside the tent to form a battle line.

However, the sudden attack by the Qin cavalry still dealt a heavy blow, especially to the new recruits who had just joined the army.

Although they had received training, this was their first time on the battlefield. When they learned that their camp had been broken into, they were so scared that their hands and legs went weak. Many of the new recruits even thought of running away.

Wasn't it said that this place was absolutely safe? Why did the enemy attack? What on earth were these cavalrymen who suddenly appeared? Where did they come from?

The other side of the river has not fallen, and the bridge over the Fen River is still there! What is going on?

"No retreat! Those who fear fighting will be executed!" A general took a sword and killed several fleeing recruits. This served as a warning to others, and all the fleeing recruits stopped in an instant.

"Quick! Shield soldiers, go forward immediately! Don't keep the camp in front! You have to defend the one behind!"

The generals in the camp immediately gave orders, and soon tens of thousands of Chao soldiers lined up with shields in hand, blocking the Qin cavalry's path.

"Humph! These cavalrymen are not even wearing armor? They dare to attack our military camp like this, leave them all here!"

The general commanded the archers to get longbows and quivers, and then asked the shield soldiers to form a formation and wait for the enemy to come and stop them!

Once the cavalry is slowed down, it's time for the archers to kill indiscriminately!

The general in charge of the command was already imagining himself making glorious military achievements, and the thought of this made him smile from ear to ear.

"Everyone get ready!" He raised his hand and shouted, looking straight ahead, and gradually saw the Qin cavalry who were about to charge.

The shield soldiers of Chao State held their iron shields tightly in their hands, but the Qin cavalry took out the iron crossbows on their backs and loaded them with armor-piercing arrows.

When Huo Qubing saw that all the cavalry were ready, he shouted, "Shoot!"

The Qin cavalry immediately pressed the trigger, and tens of thousands of crossbow arrows shot out at the same time!

These armor-piercing arrows flew through the air quickly and hit the iron shields in the hands of the shield soldiers, but the armor-piercing arrows failed to penetrate these iron shields!

Huo Qubing's face changed. These armor-piercing arrows had helped them eliminate many of the Hu people's cavalry and shield soldiers on the grassland.

But now they cannot break the shield soldiers' defense with just one arrow. This shows that the iron shields in their hands are more powerful than those used by the Hu people!

“Haha, you think you can shoot us with just arrows? These cavalrymen are a bit naive.” The commander of the shield soldiers said with a smug smile.

Huo Qubing also chuckled at this time, and his expression only changed briefly before returning to his previous confidence.

The first wave of arrows indeed failed to break the turtle shell of the Chao people, but what about the second, third, or fourth wave?

The second round of crossbow arrows followed closely. The shield soldiers of the Chao Kingdom had just recovered from the first wave of shooting, and the next moment they felt the shields in their hands shake violently!

Huo Qubing's pupils suddenly trembled. He waved his hand and shouted sternly: "Shoot again! Break their turtle shells for me!"

The Qin cavalry, who had quickly reloaded their armor-piercing arrows, raised their crossbows again. With the help of the burning bonfire in the barracks, they could clearly see the shields in the hands of the shield soldiers.

"Bang bang bang!"

The armor-piercing arrows were shot out at the same time! This time, three armor-piercing arrows were shot in a group, in the shape of a Chinese character "品" and flew straight towards the shields in the hands of the shield soldiers of the Chao State!

"Boom boom boom!"

The armor-piercing arrow hit the iron shield heavily, and then the sound of the shield cracking spread across the battlefield!

The shield soldiers all had terrified expressions on their faces. They subconsciously lowered their heads to look at the shields in their hands. As the fourth round of arrows came, their shields were completely pierced at this moment!

After quickly shooting four rounds of arrows, the Qin cavalrymen at the front put away their crossbows and switched back to their original spears.

This time, they used the iron hooves of their war horses to break the defense of the Chao country's shield soldiers!

The first gap immediately appeared in the shield soldiers' defensive formation. The shield soldiers in the rear wanted to block it immediately, but many Qin cavalry had already rushed in through the gap.

"Kill! Kill them!" Huo Qubing also rushed into the gap. He shouted while killing the enemies. Soon he had taken the lives of more than a dozen Chao soldiers.

Once the gap appeared, there was no possibility of blocking it, and 50,000 Qin cavalry poured into the military camp like a hot knife through butter.

Some Qin cavalrymen used crossbows to shoot and kill Chao soldiers, while others used their speed advantage to destroy the bonfire in the Chao military camp.

They used the tips of their spears to pick up the bonfire pots on the ground, and those flaming pots smashed onto the tent. The fire instantly spread and engulfed the entire tent!

"Ah, fire! There's a fire! There's a big fire!" The North Korean soldiers screamed. Those affected by the fire fell to the ground and rolled back and forth in pain and despair.

"Where are the archers? Why aren't they fighting back!" the commander yelled hysterically, but the next second he saw his own archers being ruthlessly hunted down by the Qin cavalry.

Their speed in reloading arrows was not as fast as that of the Qin cavalry. Even in a relatively narrow area like in the tent, the Qin cavalry could reap their lives like evil spirits!

The commander looked terrified. The shield soldiers were broken, the archers were slaughtered by the cavalry, and the infantry were also dispersed by the cavalry.

Are all his troops going to die here? Damn it! Why are his troops at the outermost edge of the camp?

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

At this moment, a horn sounded from the rear of the army, and the next moment, a roar like a tide surged over.

Reinforcements from other troops in the Chao camp have arrived, and Chao cavalry has also joined the battlefield, and the situation on the battlefield has reversed in an instant!

The commander heaved a sigh of relief. The reinforcements came just in time! If they had come any later, he and his men would have died here.

"Brothers, kill them! Reinforcements have arrived! Don't leave any one alive! Don't leave any one alive!" the commander shouted excitedly.

The Qin cavalry were forced to stay together, and more and more Chao soldiers came and surrounded them.

"Hahaha! Although I don't know where you came from, do you dare to launch a surprise attack on our Korean army camp with only tens of thousands of people?" The commander sneered at the Qin cavalry.

"Humph! He doesn't even wear armor. It seems he wants to have a quick game. It's a pity that he still has to hold out until our reinforcements arrive, haha!"

Huo Qubing looked at the Chao soldiers around him. He quietly clenched his Sky-breaking Spear and locked his eyes on the commander who had a smug look on his face.

According to the military advisor's plan, it was inevitable that they would be surrounded by the Chao army, and the rest would depend on General Guan's Wei Wu soldiers...
