Chapter 948: Brilliant Hanwei (72)
Longmen, a total of 2,000 Zhao troops and 3,000 Wei troops stationed, 5,000 people to defend the Longmen, which is not large, is more than enough in terms of troops, after all, this is an important node to connect Wei Zhao, Zhao army guard Song Chixuan belongs to the Zhao Qi system, is also an experienced general, under his command, the defense of Longmen has been watertight, did not let the Qin people find a little loophole.
But this time, it was obviously beyond his ability, he received the order to lead the two armies of the Zhao army to retreat to Daliang, and the defense line he was originally responsible for would be taken over by the Han army, when he received the order, Song Chixuan was still relatively happy, and the Qin people had been fighting for so long, his nerves were always in a highly tense state, after all, the opponent's strength was beyond his own side, and he couldn't help but be careful in everything and care everywhere. It was a good thing for him and his army to finally be able to return to the rear to recuperate.
When the two thousand Zhao troops packed up and prepared to embark on the return journey, the Qin army's iron cavalry suddenly came and tore through the previous solid defense line in an instant, and the two thousand Zhao troops rushed to meet the battle, only held out for less than an hour, and were defeated in many places, and the Qin infantry that followed quickly expanded the results to the two wings, and continued to attack the Wei army's defense line, and for a while, Longmen was already in danger.
"Resist, take a step back, slash!" On the chaotic battlefield, Song Chixuan led his last formed team to face the surging Qin army, desperately counterattacked, and firmly held the last stronghold. His only hope now is that the Han army that came to take over the defense can quickly arrive when they hear the news and drive the Qin army out of Longmen while the Qin army is not firmly established. And every little more time I hold on to now, I will lay the foundation for victory in the next Longmen counterattack.
The Han army still has a small half a day's journey, which Song Chixuan has already learned about the specific situation from the scouts, before, he didn't care about this, the front line has been calm for too long, and the adjustment of the armies on both sides has always been the highest secret, it is impossible for the Qin army to know such detailed news, and the Zhao army, which has been stationed here for too long, is like an arrow, so when his subordinates began to pack up and withdraw from the position in advance, he did not pay much attention to this matter.
But when Qin Jun pinched the timing so accurately, Song Chixuan knew that something must have gone wrong. With the passage of time a little bit, there are fewer and fewer soldiers around him, and the Han army that should appear here is still nowhere to be seen, and Song Chixuan finally fell into despair.
The entire front has fallen into chaos, he has completely lost contact with all his subordinates, not only the Zhao army, but even the Wei army with two wings have also fallen into the situation of fighting for themselves, Song Chixuan knows very well that in this case, it is impossible for his army to win, the reason why the Wei and Zhao coalition forces can hold the Dragon Gate is that it is a complete defensive system, when this system is broken now, and the armies fighting separately are facing the more powerful Qin army, it is only a matter of time before they are annihilated.
"Break out, kill out." Song Chixuan hissed and roared, and with his last remaining troops, he turned around and killed outside the battlefield.
The anger in Song Chixuan's heart was incomprehensible, no matter how the Qin army got the news that the two sides were going to change guards and suddenly launched an attack, he had worked hard to support the entire half a day, although most of the defense line had been lost, but if the Han army arrived on time, it was not impossible to turn defeat into victory, but after half a day, the Han army that should have appeared was still nowhere to be seen. Back to the girder, you have to settle this account with the other party.
At this moment, only the dozens of cavalry who were closest to him remained, and the others did not catch up, but they were afraid that they would never be able to catch up, looking back at Longmen, Song Chixuan's heart was full of remorse, if he was still cautious and cautious, and waited until the Han army arrived before starting to prepare for the retreat, how could there be such a situation now?
The front is already Erlong Mountain, the chasing soldiers behind him have been thrown away without a trace, and his safety seems to be no problem, without waiting for him to let go of this breath, the war horse under the crotch suddenly neighed, the horse lost its front hoof, Song Chixuan's whole person immediately flew out like a cloud, people in the air, he was horrified to see that his dozens of horse guards, almost at the same time, all of them were plotted, on the avenue, suddenly bounced countless triphorse ropes, and the sound of people shouting horses neighed into one.
Countless figures sprang out of the darkness, and before these people who tripped and fell to the ground could make a second reaction, they were already pressed to the ground, and in an instant, they were tied up into rice dumplings one by one.
Song Chixuan was extremely shocked in his heart, could it be that the Qin army had already infiltrated here and set up an ambush? It doesn't make sense, it can't be.
In the darkness, being pushed and shoved, staggering all the way forward, Song Chixuan was horrified to see that in the night, his vision was filled with a black steel jungle, rows of soldiers and javelins stood in the dark, and in the forward, he heard the sound of horses' hooves gently gouging the ground, and countless cavalry once again showed in front of his eyes.
This is the Han Army! Song Chixuan almost couldn't believe his eyes, they had already arrived at Erlong Mountain, but they stopped here, sitting and watching the defense line of Longmen being broken through and occupied by the Qin army, what did they want to do?
Song Chixuan wanted to shout angrily and roar, but his mouth had been firmly blocked, and he could only let out a muffled snort from his throat.
There was a flash of fire in front of him, and Song Chixuan was escorted to the firelight, and his knee was kicked by someone, and his body involuntarily weakened and fell to the ground.
"Song Chixuan?" A voice came from in front of him, Song Chixuan raised his head, and in front of him, a general dressed in the costume of a senior general of the Han Army was looking at him with a smile on his face, his eyes moved down, and he saw an iron foot, infantry! The supreme general of the Han State who commanded the Han army into the Wei State.
Song Chixuan now knew very clearly that the fall of Longmen was absolutely inseparable from this person, otherwise, his army would not have stopped at Erlong Mountain. He shook his head angrily and glared at the infantry with blood-red eyes.
"In the Battle of Longmen, as the main general, he broke away from the battlefield, abandoned the soldiers and fled, Ning Chixuan, are you guilty?" The infantry stared at Song Chixuan condescendingly and asked sharply.
Song Chixuan stared at each other, struggling desperately.
"Want to argue?" The infantry smiled, stretched out his hand and tore open the rag in Song Chixuan's mouth, as soon as the rag was pulled out, Song Chixuan was already roaring angrily, "Traitor, it's you, it's you who betrayed the intelligence, it's you who don't save you when you see death, you sit back and watch the Dragon Gate fall, you won't end well."
The infantry snorted coldly, "Song Chixuan, the two armies have changed their guards, and your army must wait until our army arrives before they can withdraw from their positions and leave the defense line, but what do you do, if you complete tactical actions in strict accordance with wartime regulations, how can this situation occur?" The Dragon Gate is lost, you are not guilty, you should be beheaded according to the law, what else do you have to say?"
"I'm the general of Zhao State, it's not your infantry's turn to speak, I want to see General Zhou." Song Chixuan roared: "Even if you want to cure me for the crime of missing the plane, it will not be your Han army's turn."
The infantry clapped their hands and said, "Okay, if you really don't see the coffin and don't shed tears, if you want to see General Zhou, you will get what you want."
Song Chixuan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he returned to Daliang and returned to the Zhao army camp, he would not give his life in such a daze, but the next scene made him almost unable to believe his eyes, Zhou Changshou, who should be in Daliang, actually appeared in front of him.
"Song Chixuan, I'm here, what else do you have to say?" Zhou Changshou pressed the handle of the knife with his hand and stared at Song Chixuan coldly.
"General Zhou, you, you ......"
Looking at Zhou Changshou, Song Chixuan understood a lot of things in an instant, his eyes were full of shock and disbelief, staring at Zhou Changshou, his mouth opened and closed, and he couldn't say anything.
"General Bu, I want to have a few words with him alone, okay?" Zhou Changshou looked at the infantry and said.
"Of course no problem, General Zhou, please!" The infantry waved their hands, and the two guards dragged Song Chixuan up and walked to the rear, followed by Zhou Changshou.
Under a big tree, Song Chixuan cut his hands upside down, sat cross-legged on the ground, and when he saw Zhou Changshou appear here, he no longer had any hope of living.
"Zhou Changshou, I just want to ask you, why did you betray Da Zhao?" Song Chixuan asked sharply.
Zhou Changshou stared at Song Chixuan in a daze, and after a while, he said: "General Song, you have always been a descendant of Zhao Shoufu, I just want to ask you one thing, what is the meaning of General Zhao's death that year?"
Song Chixuan was stunned, looked at Zhou Changshou, but did not speak.
"Among the generals who attacked Daijun with Zhao Shoufu back then, except for Zhao Xilie and Li Mingjun, the others died, and General Zhao and Zilan died together, I just want to know, how did General Zhao die?" Zhou Changshou's voice gradually became cold.
"The imperial court has made it very clear in this matter, it was Zilan who set a trap and killed General Zhao."
"Song Chixuan, are you an idiot for me?" Zhou Changshou snorted coldly: "To be honest, I can let you go back to Zhao Country with a way out. You know the truth, don't you?"
"I don't know." Song Chixuan was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head, "Zhou Changshou, no matter how General Zhao died, it is already a thing of the past, as the general of Zhao State, you should serve Zhao Guo, not General Zhao alone. If you're doing this now, you're forgetting your ancestors!"
"I used to think that the past should be passed, and the living will always continue." Zhou Changshou sighed, "But Zhao Shoufu doesn't think so?" Wu Zeng should be dying by now, right? Who will come after him? I think that the next step should be to call me back to China, or the reason is to transfer me to the Hedong camp to take over Wu Zeng's position, but I am afraid that I will never be able to reach Hedong, Zhao Shoufu must have prepared the men and horses of the tiger and leopard, and as soon as I return to China, I will be taken, and this Zhao army in Wei will gradually withdraw to Zhao under your command, isn't it?"
Song Chixuan's face was pale, but he didn't say a word.
Looking at Song Chixuan's face, Zhou Changshou understood that he had not guessed wrong, he stood up a little lonely and strode away. Two soldiers came over with knives, and Song Chixuan sighed and closed his eyes. R1152
