Chapter 270: The First

On the bank of the Yishui River, the blood flowed into a river, and the red blood flowed into a trickle, soaked the loess on the ground, filled with potholes, and then flowed along the embankment to the Yishui River, and the large area of river water on the bank became bright red.

Thick smoke obscured the sky, so that the sun shining in the sky also looked dull, on the battlefield within a radius of dozens of kilometers, everywhere showed a doomsday atmosphere, tattered flags, broken knives and guns, everywhere, and what was even more shocking was that there were layers on top of each other, one on top of the other, and there was no edge at a glance.

The shouting and killing has gradually thinned out, only the most unconquered position is left, the Zhao army is on the Yishui River, experienced the biggest defeat since they founded the country, Yan general Zhou Yuan commanded nearly 100,000 troops, launched the most rearly general attack on the assembled Zhao army, which lasted five days, and finally ended with the fiasco of Zhao State, Zhao Guo's general Zhao Qi, and the standing army general Zhao Meng had fled yesterday night, leaving behind the Zhao army's most formed army, in order to cover Zhao Qi's escape, This army fought to the death and finally fell into the layers of encirclement of the Yan army.

The blood on the big knife in Gao Yuan's hand dripped down the tip of the knife, carrying the big knife, he walked in the front, on his left and right, two hundred Fufeng soldiers held high the identical big knife, more than ten people in a row, and moved forward, a little later, it was Meng Chong, Xu Yuan's pikemen, and the two wings, flanked by the other two battle camps led by Naha and Yan Haibo.

Gao Yuan let Meng Chong and Xu Yuan charge behind him, because they were not familiar with the combat routines of the Fufeng soldiers, and Yan Haibo and Naha did not have this problem, these two battle camps were not like Meng Xu and the others, advancing in a neat queue, but forming a semicircle, after trapping the enemy in, and then tightening inward, in this process, the other two hundred Fufeng soldiers that Gao Yuan put into the various departments played the role of the mainstay, and it was under the command and leadership of these people that those miscellaneous soldiers from various counties, so that it will not run around like a fly without a head.

At this time, the entire battlefield has been in chaos, and the other departments can hardly see the formation, the Zhao soldiers are running for their lives, the Yan army is desperately chasing, the mountains are all over the field, and the crowds are surging.

Not discouraged by defeat, not proud of victory, Zhou Yuan stared at the troops advancing high and far, a trace of gloom passed in his eyes, and his face changed in an instant.

"Gao Yuan, a real genius!" The words that popped out of Zhou Yuan's mouth were words of praise. Being able to effectively control the army on such a big battlefield, after such a big victory, this is not something that ordinary people can do, at least on the battlefield before the end, no one can do it, even Zhou Yu and Tan Feng are now just controlling their own soldiers, and considering that the source of the army in Gao Yuan's hands is complicated, and it has not been a long time to take over, Zhou Yuan is not very shocked.

The big knife in Gao Yuan's hand was raised, in front of his eyes, it was the last army of the Zhao army that was still in formation, and the other Zhao troops were busy chasing the stragglers at this time, for such a bone that was not easy to gnaw, obviously they didn't want to provoke, compared to this army, or those routs were more empty to deal with.

"Lift!" Gao Yuan shouted with disgust, and hundreds of large knives were raised at the same time.

"Cast!" Behind him, countless spears flew up in the air, with a sharp whistle, flying towards the Zhao army's position on the opposite side.

"Rush!" Following the soaring spear, Gao Yuan took a big step and rushed forward.

The spear arrives, and the man arrives.

The spear flew into the lineup of the Zhao army, causing a burst of chaos, and the extremely powerful broadsword had been cut down like Mount Tai was overwhelming, and there was more than one, and more than ten broadswords were chopped down at the same time.

The knife fell and blood was splashed, and in the shout, Gao Yuan and his two hundred personal soldiers were like a wedge, deeply inserted into the queue of the most rear-end Zhao army, and the big knife rose and fell, like rolling waves, where the knife waves passed, the Zhao army was like snow encountering the scorching sun, and it melted silently in the dazzling knife light.

The big knife split the crack, the pikemen followed, the two wings were outflanked, this Zhao army, which was attacked by several Yan armies and still stood for a long time, in front of Gao Yuan, finally like a scarred giant, could no longer support his body, and fell lightly.

The big knife in Gao Yuan's hand was raised again, and with a click, the fluttering Zhao banner collapsed, which was the last Zhao army banner on the battlefield.

With the fall of the banner of the Zhao army, the middle army of the Yan Kingdom in the distance let out a huge cheer, the battle of Yan and Zhao, at this moment, can be said to have completely ended with the complete victory of the Yan army.

In the middle of the day, the Yan army connected Weicheng, Fangcheng, Lincheng, plus the whole city that Gao Yuan had previously taken, and the planned combat goal of the Yan State this time was only the last city, which was confused. Zhao Qi and Zhao Meng led the remnants of the most defeated army, retreated into the city, and defended the door behind closed doors, but they didn't dare to take another half a step back.

These five cities were still taken from the land of the Yan Kingdom, but after the confusion of the cities, they were the native Zhao Kingdom. Zhao Qi went out this time and led nearly 100,000 people, but at this time, there were only more than 10,000 people who could retreat into the city with him, and they were defeated, and it was psychologically acceptable to lose these seized lands.

The pursuit speed of the Yan army was extremely fast, on the third day of Zhao Qi's retreat into the city, the cavalry led by Tan Feng of the Yan army had already arrived under the city, and on the second day, the first infantry arrived, to Tan Feng's surprise, it was not the standing army of the Yan State, but the miscellaneous army of Gao Yuan.

Gao Yuan's robe was no longer the same, it hung on his body in wisps, and there were holes everywhere, some were cut by knives and guns, and some were burned by flames, his face was black and covered with dirt, and if he threw away the knife and gun in his hand, he would be a beggar.

Complementing Gao Yuan were his subordinates, as were the two hundred Tsing Yi Fufeng soldiers, and the other soldiers were even more unbearable. When we arrived at the bottom of the city, all we had left was gasping for breath.

Tan Feng looked at Gao Yuan in front of him and opened his mouth wide, "Gao Yuan, don't you and your steps need to sleep and rest?" Why is it so fast, what about the big army, what about Zhou Yu, what about Jiang Dawei, and the general?"

Gao Yuan grinned, the dust on his face fell, and he reached out to wipe it, finally revealing a little skin color, "It's almost there, they will be there tomorrow at the latest."

"I'm asking how you were so fast?"

"Soon?" Gao Yuan pursed his lips, as if the Yishui River was not too far from the city, four days, walking less than a hundred miles a day, is it not very fast? Glancing back at those subordinates whose legs and feet were obviously weak, he shook his head with hatred, still can't do it, like his two hundred wind soldiers, even if he goes into battle right now, it's not a problem, but those guys have become soft-footed crabs. Fortunately, Tan Feng arrived ahead of schedule, if he was the first, Zhao Qi waved his troops, he would be tragic, and he would immediately become a big victory.

"Naha, set up camp, bury pots, cook food, and get some good food for the brothers." Gao Yuan shouted loudly.

"Okay!" Naha replied loudly, I haven't seen him for a few days, this guy's beard came out again, and even his mouth was covered, and sometimes Gao Yuan wondered, did this guy's hair grow a little abnormal, and he could grow so long without shaving for a few days?

The current Naha is a camping expert under his command, and the speed of setting up the camp is not only fast, but also offensive and defensive, which makes Gao Yuan feel impeccable.

"Infantry!" Gao Yuan shouted again.

"County Lieutenant, I'm here!" The infantry rode his horse and ran over, although he couldn't pull the bow yet, but his right hand was able to barely lift the knife, Yishui River battled, the infantry didn't fish to participate in the battle, this time the pursuit, this guy was going to die or live and followed.

"Take your brothers around and see if there's any real stuff to get to open for the brothers." Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"Yes."

"You can't rob it!" Gao Yuan said loudly: "The people in these places are also my big swallow people!"

"How dare I?" The infantry smiled: "If you want the county lieutenant to know the way, you won't cut off my skull!"

Tan Feng looked at it with some dumbfounded, not long ago it was still a group of garbage miscellaneous soldiers, under the leadership of a figure in green clothes, dragging their tired bodies and starting to camp, everyone was so tired that they didn't have any strength to speak, but they didn't pull down any of the things that should be done, who should do what, it seems that they have been planned before.

Gao Yuan turned around and looked at Tan Feng with a shy face, "General Tan, it's okay!"

Tan Feng didn't react for a while, "What did you say?"

Gao Yuan smiled: "General Tan, when I came to report, I could bring more than a hundred good horses, and after a few battles, there were less than twenty war horses left in the whole army, where do you have a lot of spare horses, do well, reward me a little, so that my scouts will not run on two legs?"

Tan Feng was angry and funny, he didn't expect Gao Yuan to have such a lazy side, but he was also useful in his heart, this guy regarded himself as a friend, otherwise he wouldn't speak in this tone, although the tone was lazy and scoundrel, but there was a sense of affection inside.

"I don't have many spare horses anywhere, so I can only give you twenty, is that enough?"

"Enough, enough!" Gao Yuan was overjoyed, looking at Tan Feng's eyes, he was a little more affectionate, "When I get rich, I will definitely pay it back. But I'm so poor that I can only make a white slip first."

Tan Feng raised his head and smiled, "Gao Yuan, don't think about it, this time in a big battle, your head work can't run, I estimate, a general's position can't run you, according to the rules, if you are named a general, then you have to go to Jicheng in person to thank the king, and the reward will be indispensable at that time, I will stay where you are, and wait for you to pay the bill."

"Go to Jicheng!" Gao Yuan had no smile on his face, stunned.

"What's the matter, are you still thinking about riding a high-headed horse and going to Yefu with a sedan chair, the war is over, you go to Jicheng, as long as you dare to go, I will personally lead the horse for you and bouquet flowers?" Tan Feng tilted his head and squinted at Gao Yuan.

"General Tan is not afraid of offending Ye Xiang?" Gao Yuan laughed.

"Others are afraid of him, why should I be afraid of him?" Tan Feng sneered, he is the cavalry general of the Yan Kingdom's standing army, he has real power in his hands, and his family's power is also very great, and behind him is Ning Zecheng, another giant of the Yan Kingdom, who is really not afraid of Ye Tiannan.

"We'll talk about it then!" Gao Yuan didn't answer directly, if Tan Feng was just a friend, Gao Yuan would indeed be very moved, but when he thought of Ning Zecheng behind this person, Gao Yuan couldn't see through what this person was thinking in his heart, he didn't want to be a knife in someone else's hand.
