On March 16, under the city of Dongwu (now in the area of Gucheng County, Hebei).

In the military formation of the Yan army outside the city, the general Wang Shi was holding a telescope to observe the movements of the Zhao army at the head of the city on the command platform set up. I saw that above the city, it was densely packed with soldiers of the Zhao army.

"General Qiyu, the Zhao army defending the city is unwilling to surrender." A Yan army general reported to Wang Shiyu.

Putting down the telescope in his hand, Wang Shi's face was expressionless.

"Humph! In this case, pass my general order, catapults to strike at the city, after the city is broken, the city guards, not a single one remains. Wang Shi snorted coldly and ordered.

"No." This Yan army general bowed down to receive the order.

Dozens of tall catapults have been pushed up to the front of the city by the Yan army. At the order of the catapult captain, the winch on the catapult creaked, and on the side of the lever, at this time the boulder had already begun to be loaded.

Under the catapult, the sound of Captain Yan's orders was constantly heard.

"Maximum charge, boulder loading."

"Ready to launch!"

“……”

Under the catapult, many Yan soldiers were busy.

On the other side of the lever, dozens of chord arms were pulled up one by one, and the catapult was already at its maximum range.

"Put." Captain Yan, who commanded the catapult, began to swing in turn, the pennant in his hand.

At the sound of an order, dozens of boulders on catapults were issued together. The projection of the boulder swept across the earth and whistled away in the air, and after a few moments, I saw the Tobu City Wall in front of me, shaking a few times, and dust and gravel spread everywhere.

Not to mention how the Zhao army defending the city felt, Wang Shi, who was on the command platform, shook his body after his own catapult sent out a boulder.

In the binoculars, Zhao Jun at the head of the city had already begun to run in a commotion.

"General, our army concentrated this catapult to attack one part of the city, according to the last general, after a few rounds, the walls of this Tobu Castle will inevitably collapse." Beside Wang Shi, the deputy general Hu Guiliang said loudly to Wang Shi.

Over the years, Hu Guiliang has relied on his military exploits to gain the full trust of Ji Kang and the respect of the soldiers of the Yan Army. This time, Zhao was personally appointed by Ji Kang as Wang Shi's deputy general.

"General Hu, pass on the order to go, let our army be ready at any time and attack the city." Wang Shi ordered.

"No." Hu Guiliang bowed down to receive the order.

The sound of "boom, boom" was endless, and the catapults of the Yan army continued to strike at Tobu City.

With a series of sounds, the Tobu City Wall was littered with stones and dust.

Tobu Castle was already scarred and crumbling.

The Yan army array under the city cheered together, which was deafening.

"Tobu Castle is about to collapse, give me a continued blow." On the command platform, Wang Shi's order was heard.

With a "boom", the Tobu city wall finally collapsed, and a thick cloud of smoke and dust swept into the sky.

"Attack, let me go into the city." On the command platform, Deputy General Hu Guiliang roared loudly.

"Kill." The Yan army under the city collectively let out a shout and rushed towards Dongwu City in order.

As a large number of Yan troops entered Dongwu City, the sound of fighting in the city suddenly resounded in the sky.

Just when Wang Shi attacked Tobu City, Rong Yi, the main general of the middle lane, had already set foot on the head of Feicheng.

The sound of fighting in the city has stopped. However, smoke is also rising in many places.

The fat city under the sunset is shrouded in blood.

General Liu Sheng walked up to the city tower, bowed down to Rong Yan and said, "General Qiyu, our army has cleared the remnants of the enemy in Feicheng. did not find that the Zhao army led by Pang Xuan came to help. ”

Rong Yan sighed and said to Liu Sheng: "General Liu Sheng, don't wait for Pang Xuan's ministry any longer. The general also just received the news from the Intelligence Bureau, just yesterday after our army launched an attack on Zhao State, Pang Xuan led the Zhao army to the south. ”

Liu Shengba clicked his mouth and said to Rong Yan:

"General, this Pang Xuan is not famous, I didn't expect that he would have such courage?"

Rong Yan's face was serious, and he said to Liu Sheng:

"General Liu Sheng, although you have been in Zhongyang County for so many years, you have confronted Pang Xuan's troops, and you have never really fought against this person. Although this Pang Xuan's statement is not obvious, his military talent is definitely not inferior to any famous general in the world. ”

Seeing Liu Sheng's surprised gaze, Rong Yan's face turned pale, and he said to Liu Sheng:

"General Liu Sheng, don't pretend. You haven't been without knowing your opponent for so many years? That's right, the order of Ben Jiang, the "running general", was given by Pang Xuan. ”

Rong Ma has been half his life, and now he is also a world-famous general, Rong Worm, for Pang Xuan and Tian Dan, this nickname given to him is simply heart-wrenching. His Mother's! This is the biggest stain on my life!

Seeing Rong Yan gritting his teeth, Liu Sheng and the Yan army generals around Rong Yan lowered their heads and forcibly held back the loud laughter they wanted to make. This feeling is very painful!

General Rong Yan looked around, laughed and said to the generals:

"Alright, the generals can laugh if they want! Don't make any mistakes with everyone. ”

Suddenly, above the tower of Feicheng, a burst of laughter broke out.

After everyone laughed, Rong Yan sighed:

"Don't hide it from you, I will admire Pang Xuan'er very much. He led his army south to Xindu in this way, and our army's plan to encircle his troops under the house city could no longer be realized. ”

"In this way, our army may progress smoothly in the early stage, but in the later stage, the attack on Xindu and Handan will be subject to the stubborn resistance of the Zhao army. This Pang Xuan has a very deep strategy! ”

Above the city tower, all the generals of the Yan Army were heartbroken.

There was no longer the joy of attacking Feicheng just now, and everyone's faces became solemn.

Rong Yi raised his head, looked at the sky, the setting sun, and ordered:

"Don't think about it so much, immediately report the military situation here to the king."

The Rong Oyster Department had just crossed the Hutuo River, and it was very close to Wuyang, the lower capital. After the battle of Feicheng was finished in the afternoon, at dawn the next day, the carrier pigeon had already brought the message to the Wuyang Palace.

After looking at Rong Worm and Le Jian, the two of them passed on the military information back to themselves. Ji Kang came to the map in front of the wall and set his eyes on the place of Xindu.

The veteran general Pang Xuan led his troops south, and the Yan army's several armies were already unable to catch up.

As Rong Yan said, since then, Yan Jun's plan to gather Pang Xuan's troops in the area of House City has completely failed. The plan formulated by the Yan army before the war to divide and annihilate the Zhao army turned into a decisive battle with the main force.

When he came to Wuyang, Ji Kang also asked Pang Xuan's friends Ju Xin and Su Belly what they thought of Pang Xuan.

The two of them, Xin and Su, were very contemptuous of Pang Xuan, and said to Ji Kangyan: "Pang Xuan is easy to hear." ”

Ji Kang was stunned at that time, you two of you are so small to look down on Pang Xuan, is it appropriate?

No wonder in the previous life, the two of you led the army to attack Zhao, and the 600,000 Yan army was beaten by the Zhao army of more than 100,000 people, and the two of you were also beheaded by the two veterans Pang Xuan and Lian Po.

After Ji Kang looked at the map for a while, he turned to Tian Guang, Han Fei, and Ju Wu behind him:

"This veteran Pang Xuan is really good. Regardless of the opposition of Zhao Guo's court, he was so determined. ”

Tian Guang, who has always been reluctant to speak more, looked at the map behind Ji Kang at this time and said:

"Your Majesty, not only that, our army's three-way army is attacking Zhao State. If Pang Xuan does not lead his army to retreat south, but fights a decisive battle with our army on the south bank of the Hutuo River, our army will be sure of victory. ”

"However, at the moment, Pang Xuan led his troops to retreat south, if nothing else, the veteran Lian Po will also lead his troops north, if his two armies will work together and attack our various armies separately, the war will fall into unpredictability."

Looking at Shimoda Mitsuki's young and resolute face, Ji Kang smiled on his face.

Tian Guang's words, like Rong Yan's letter, all talked about this.

Ji Kang clicked on the land of Xindu on the map and said to the three of them:

"The old tiger is still a tiger! The veterans Lian Po and Pang Xuan, although they are both over 70 years old, are still not to be underestimated. You can give a draft edict to the commanders of the armies of all walks of life, and order my armies not to be rash. ”

Ji Kang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he decided to change the military plan of the Yan army according to what Rong Yan said in his letter.

Turning around, Ji Kang said to everyone in the hall:

"The edict stated that the Bo Wangsuo of the South Road Army was mainly to guard against the Qin army in Anyang and the Wei army in Liang, and to contain the Zhao army in Pingyang, and not to attack the enemy army without reason; In addition, the Second Army of the Navy was stationed in Wei County and participated in the defense of Wei County. ”

"After capturing Dongwu City, Wang Shisuo's department of the Eastern Route Army should not rashly cross the Great River (Yellow River) and attack the sand dunes (now the area of Guangzong County, Hebei), and after sweeping the Zhao State City to the east of the Great River, the eastward march and the Middle Route Army will converge in the house city."

"After occupying Jingcheng, the army of the West Road occupied Chili and Yi'an (now southeast of Shijiazhuang, Hebei), and then went south along the eastern foot of the Queen Mother, captured Bairen (now Longyao County, Xingtai City, Hebei Province), and joined the army of the Middle Road."

"After occupying Feiyi, the army of the middle road was marched into the house (now southwest of Gaoyi County, Hebei) and Shancheng (now the north of Baixiang County, Hebei Province), and at any time to respond to the east and west armies of our Yan Kingdom."

Speaking of this, Ji Kang pondered again and continued:

"After the convergence of my eastern, central, and western armies in the area of House City, Ling Rongyi is the main general, and Le Jian and Wang Shi are the deputy generals. The matter of the previous battle, the three of them discussed with the generals and decided it, and there was no need to report it to the widow. ”
