Chapter 620: 3 Arrows, 0 Victory

Early the next morning.

All the Qin troops in the city received orders to go out of the city and attack Xianggu Mountain Stronghold.

Most of the Qin troops were actually somewhat resistant to this order.

The battle in Baiyue Land has been going on for a long time, and it didn’t take long before it stopped.

Moreover, they also knew about the Elephant Valley. The terrain was steep and they had tried to conquer it before.

But they lost a lot of men and couldn't win any of them.

But they had military orders, and they heard that this order was given by His Highness the Crown Prince, so they could only obey it.

Of course, I can't help but slander His Royal Highness in my heart.

In any case, the Qin army embarked on the journey.

The people in the city also saw this scene, and after hearing the news, they gave up hope on everyone's actions.

There were also some people from other cottages who followed them not far away.

Looking at it this way, this army does not look like an expedition, but like a parade.

At this time, Zhao Tuo was walking at the front of the army, and Zhao Lang and his men were escorted in the middle.

"Master, there are a lot of people following us, do you want someone to drive them away?"

Nu frowned and said at this time.

Zhao Lang shook his head calmly,

"It doesn't matter, let them follow."

His purpose is to demonstrate, and the more people, the better.

Just looking at Hu Hai who was following Zhao Mier eagerly in the distance, Zhao Lang sighed slightly and said,

"Call Hu Hai back!"

Why do these people like to be lickers so much?

Soon, Hu Hai came back reluctantly, followed by Zhao Tuo.

He gave Hu Hai a look and then looked at Zhao Tuo with a smile.

"Your Highness, our army is approaching Xianggu Mountain Stronghold."

"It's just that the Elephant Valley Village has been prepared for a long time and has set up defenses. The spies said that there are still giant elephants, so it may be difficult to attack."

"And businessmen from other surrounding villages and even other counties have also come here."

"Once the attack fails, it will probably damage the majesty of our army."

Zhao Tuo explained the situation and finally persuaded him,

"Your Highness, why don't we return to the city after some hunting."

Facing Zhao Tuo's persuasion, Zhao Lang said extremely relaxedly,

"It doesn't matter, let me try."

With that said, he walked directly to the front of the line.

Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment. What do you mean by asking you to try it first?

But seeing that he couldn't stop Zhao Lang, Zhao Tuo's eyes flashed with fierceness at this time, and he might as well let the other party try.

Anyway, these people will definitely not be able to take down this Elephant Valley.

When the other party sees those elephants, the other party will give up.

When he saw these giant beasts for the first time, he was frightened.

There are none of these things in the north.

Soon, the Qin army arrived in front of a valley.

"Your Highness, this is the Elephant Valley, and the village is at the deepest part of the valley."

Zhao Tuo said at this time.

Zhao Lang took a look at the terrain and knew why the Qin army failed to capture it.

The widest part of the valley can accommodate a dozen people walking side by side.

It sounds okay, but during a war, no matter how many people there are, they can only come in waves.

And this is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that now there are two elephants with people on their backs, standing in front of the valley!

Extremely horrifying!

Not to mention that the faces of ordinary Qin soldiers were a bit frightened, even his guards looked a little pale.

Just think of how much damage these behemoths can do in such cramped terrain!

No one wants to fight with each other here!

No wonder the people in this village are so arrogant.

When Zhao Tuo looked at Zhao Lang, he found that the other person's expression was extremely indifferent.

It was nothing like the first time I saw the giant beast.

Fortunately, looking at everyone's faces, he felt slightly relieved.

This battle should be impossible to fight.

After all, even if Zhao Lang wants to fight, he can't do it alone.

As soon as they got closer, a copycat came to them and yelled loudly. valley

Although Zhao Lang couldn't hear it, he could guess that it was definitely not a good word.

Zhao Tuo just wanted to translate, but Zhao Lang urged him forward. Zhao Tuo was startled and said quickly,

"Your Highness, please be careful!"

"If you must attack, I will ask the sergeant to go up and try it for you."

Hearing this, the faces of Qin Jun around him became even more ugly.

Wouldn't trying this mean you'd die?

Even if they are not afraid of death, they don’t want to die!

But the next moment, they were stunned for a moment, because Zhao Lang said,

"It doesn't matter, I'll do it myself."

Zhao Tuo thought his ears had heard it wrong and said in disbelief,

"Your Highness, what did you say?"

Zhao Lang did not explain, but directly rode forward.

Under everyone's gaze, he bent his bow and nocked an arrow.

Everyone felt a little baffled, let alone whether it could be shot from such a distance.

Even if it hits, ordinary arrow targets will not do much damage.

Soon, the arrow flew out!

Then it landed a few meters in front of the elephant.

Seeing this scene, there were other copycats who were watching, but some people couldn't help it and laughed loudly.

Even the people on the elephant's back couldn't help but laugh.

When the two armies faced each other, Zhao Lang's behavior was like a joke.

Most of the Qin troops behind Zhao Lang also felt a little embarrassed.

Only Zhao Mier, who was beside Zhao Tuo, frowned slightly.

She still remembered that yesterday, with only a bow, Zhao Lang forced the leader of Lone Wolf Village to ask for help!

How could this happen today?

Zhao Tuo on the side showed an imperceptible smile, then stepped forward and said,

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely courageous! He is not timid in the face of giant beasts! He has given Xianggu Village a deterrent, and I will definitely report it to His Majesty later!"

"It's just that we should withdraw first today..."

boom!

Before Zhao Tuo could finish his words, a roar rose into the sky!

Thick smoke, fire, mixed with fine earth and stones, rushed around.

But Zhao Tuo stood there blankly, unable to understand what was happening.

When the smoke dissipated, the two elephants in front of the valley had already led people into a panic and fled inside!

The sound of the entire battlefield also stopped suddenly, and everyone seemed to be choked by invisible hands.

At this time, Zhao Lang ignored Zhao Tuo next to him and shouted directly to the stunned Qin Jun behind him,

"Come with me!"

After saying that, he took the lead and headed towards Elephant Valley!

The big dog and the others naturally followed closely.

With someone taking the lead, the other Qin troops followed with a bit of fanaticism.

The valley that was previously inaccessible has become smooth due to the pioneering efforts of the giant elephants!

The opponent also tried to fight back, but unfortunately, after Zhao Lang shot two more arrows.

It completely collapsed!

Apart from the terrain advantage, the two sides are not on the same level at all!

Now that Zhao Lang has solved this problem, victory is within reach.

Looking at the Xianggu villagers kneeling and surrendering in front of them and the panicked giant elephant, Zhao Tuo seemed to be in a dream.

The look he looked at Zhao Lang was filled with awe.

He knew that after Zhao Lang's three arrows, there would no longer be any stronghold in the land of Baiyue that disobeyed Da Qin's orders.

As for his little thoughts, he also followed them

Zhao Lang remained as indifferent as ever,

"Back to the city."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

It was like just doing a small and insignificant thing.

It's not that I'm pretending, it's just that compared to the previous battle, this battle really didn't have any challenges.

He did not feel honored to use gunpowder against a group of people who were almost still in the tribal era.

Now go back to the city and wait for the supplies to reward your sergeants to arrive, then quickly return to Xianyang.

He couldn't let the soldiers who died in the battle wait for him.
