"Quickly look for it!"
Old General Shi led thirty thousand cavalry and quickly arrived at the place where his subordinate Ye Ao was ambushed. Looking at the corpses on the ground. he ordered.
Looking at the corpses that were filled with arrows, Old General Shi looked at the valleys on both sides.
"Which general will lead the army this time?”
Old General Shi muttered. The arrows on the ground had already confirmed that Ye Ao had not lied about the military situation. Even he did not expect that someone would ambush over ten thousand people here.
Without a wide field of vision, it was very easy to expose the dense forest.
Who was this person?
"General, we didn't find any grain soldiers from Yongzhou.”
Soon, a guard rode over to report.
"It should be in front. He ordered 5,000 cavalrymen to go first. The army will follow!"
General Shi ordered.
He had already confirmed that the people sent by the State of Zhao this time were definitely not ordinary people. He had a vague feeling that he was really going to lose this time. Since the other party was here for the rations, they would definitely go ahead and continue their ambush.
"Old Man Yu, this old man will never have the face to see you again.”
He sighed. Old General Shi shook his head. It was as if he could already see that there were more than 2,000 corpses on the valley road ahead.
His only hope now was for that brat surnamed Xiao to be afraid of death and let the soldiers cover his escape.
However, when he saw the scene in front of him. However, the hope was a little slim.
"General, please give me a chance to atone for my sins!”
This time, Ye Ao also came, ignoring the injury on his waist. Hearing Old General Shi's words, he pleaded.
This was his only chance to redeem himself.
He had already returned to the barracks and reported the ambush to the old general. He could not escape punishment, but his family could be spared. There were no regrets.
If he encountered the Zhao army again, he would definitely die in battle.
"Go!"
Old General Shi knew Ye Ao's personality very well about this general who had followed him for so many years. He also knew what Ye Ao was thinking at the moment.
"Yes!"
......
"Captain, the sky is getting dark. The Zhao army should have retreated, right?”
In the valley, Zhao Kun asked as he watched the sky gradually darken.
"The other party is Li Mu.”
Xiao Xiao shrugged.
Normally, they wouldn't continue ambushing in such a situation, but since they knew that the other party was Li Mu, Xiao Xiao naturally wouldn't let his guard down.
This was why he chose to stay here instead of retreating to the border. Who knew if the Zhao army who had attacked them from behind had really retreated or if they had retreated to continue ambushing them.
...
" Captain, there's the sound of hooves!!!"
Suddenly, Han Cheng, who was at the front, ran over and shouted as he ran.
Hearing this, all the soldiers who were resting on the ground stood up and quickly formed a defense.
Everyone was on guard and did not dare to underestimate him.
Xiao Xiao also stood up and looked down the valley. He did not know if Great Qin's cavalry or Li Mu's army would appear.
If it was Great Qin's cavalry, it would be great. However, if it was the army of Zhao.
Today, not only would they not be able to avoid a life-and-death battle, but even the 100,000 soldiers surrounding Xinzheng would also be surrounded.
The sound of horse hooves grew louder and louder, like a roar in the valley.
Soon, a figure appeared at the corner of the road. Then, like a black torrent. An endless stream of black-armored cavalrymen rode their fully armored warhorses out of the valley road.
"It's the Qin army! It's Great Qin's cavalry!"
"It really is our Qin army!"
......
Looking at the black flag, looking at the cavalry that belonged solely to their Qin country. The soldiers laughed and shouted.
At a glance, the black armored cavalry that covered the entire mountain path had also pulled on their reins in the distance and stopped, facing them in an orderly manner.
Xiao Xiao mounted his horse and walked out of the formation. Then, he saw the general of the cavalry coming over.
After a hundred steps, Xiao Xiao suddenly realized that the person who came over was Ye Ao, the person who had exchanged blows with him that day.
Xiao Xiao had a strange look on his face.
"Captain Xiao, it's me! It's great that you're fine!"
Ye Ao was not as arrogant as he was that day. When he saw Xiao Xiao and his group, he was practically teary.
As long as Xiao Xiao and the others were fine, as long as the military rations were still there, then his crime was not worthy of death. At most, he would be demoted. He would not be beheaded.
"Military order!"
However, Xiao Xiao didn't argue with him. He looked at him coldly and even touched the sword hilt at his waist.
"Here, here!"
Seeing Xiao Xiao's expression, Ye Ao could only laugh bitterly.
He probably knew that because of what happened that day, Xiao Xiao didn't really like him.
Arriving in front of Xiao Xiao, he looked at Xiao Xiao's vigilant appearance. He smiled bitterly as he took out the military order from his pocket, but at this moment, the square cloth was already stained with a lot of blood.
"Captain Xiao, today was indeed not intentional. We were ambushed by the Zhao army in front. Fortunately, they had already retreated. Otherwise,"
Ye Ao looked at Xiao Xiao, who was looking down at the military order, and explained. But before he could finish, Xiao Xiao interrupted him coldly.
"I know."
....
"Then! What was that? Why would Captain Xiao?"
Ye Ao, who looked embarrassed, looked depressed. As he spoke, he suddenly looked at Xiao Xiao in confusion.
Didn't the Zhao army retreat?
Oh, perhaps they had gone to the front to take a look and had only retreated when they saw the corpses on the ground.
Yes, that was definitely the case. It wasn't hard to explain how Captain Xiao knew about it.
Xiao Xiao took a deep breath and sighed after reading the military order.
"Are you talking about them?"
Xiao Xiao turned his head and gestured to the soldiers behind him.
Instantly, a pair of hands was raised in the neat formation. However, there were heads in his hands.
At a glance, the entire army formation was filled with severed heads.
“...”
When Ye Ao saw this scene, his mouth was agape and his pupils were wide open. It was as if his entire body was frozen.
