"There's no way forward. There are Zhao people blocking the way in front. A Qi soldier holds his gun. Curled up next to a fire. He also rubbed his hands together from time to time. Although the early spring has arrived. But the cold wave moves south from time to time. The weather is still a little cold.

This Qi soldier was obviously a bit redundant. Because. The soldier next to him took nothing. Curled body. Leaning against a rock. Eyes closed slightly. He was resting. For the future. He doesn't know anything. Can't think of anything. Because that's how the tide of battle develops. He was also helpless.

And other soldiers. It's mostly godless eyes. They are well aware. The current situation. There is no way back for them. Their back road has been cut off by the Zhao army.

And in front of the bridgehead established by the Zhao army. The corpses of Qi soldiers were piled up on the road to the south bank of the river.

There are a variety of postures. There are those who have broken arms. There are those that have been broken belly. The entrails flowed all over the ground. The head is opened. The ravens in the sky flew around like locusts. They are going to eat the meat to fill their stomachs.

"The Zhao people established a bridgehead position there. And. Their position seemed to have stabilized. A Qi centurion said with a telescope.

"That's right." A commander of the Qi army said.

"With our current strength. We simply can't take the position of the Zhao army. There are too few of us. And the staff is too scattered. At this time, Zhao Jun's commander said.

"That's it. If we can't cross the river. Then tens of thousands of us will be suppressed here. The centurion asked worriedly.

"I know. But. You have to understand. We simply don't have the strength to organize such a massive offensive now. We simply could not capture the positions on the opposite side. The centurion put down the telescope in his hand and told the centurion heavily.

"Look at the dead bodies lying motionless on the ground? Those are the consequences of our rash actions. The commander said.

"Everybody wants to go back alive. But. Let's see if Zhao Guoren will agree. More and faster chapters are here. The Commander asked.

"There were no less than a thousand dead people lying there. There are too many people who want to go back. But. None of them gathered to launch a powerful attack. Outcome. A lot of people were shot here. We're blocked here. The commander said.

"You mean." The centurion asked.

"We're going to wait. Gather strength. Gather the stragglers. We're going on a bigger offensive. We need to be a little patient. The commander said.

"Okay." The centurion said. But. The centurion's expression was one of anxiety. Many Qi troops have such looks. They were all Qi soldiers who were scattered by the cavalry of the Zhao army. Be the first to update their marching ranks. The formations were scattered. They only know. Head south. You can return to your home country. Then they don't have to fight.

But. They didn't know until they got here. The Zhao army had already established a defensive position here early. The two bridges leading to the other side of the river were also burned by Zhao Jun.

There are none of the other ferry crossings. The water situation is worrying. In the early spring temperatures melting. The ice is no longer able to support people to cross the river. Some Qi soldiers who tried to cross the river by stepping on ice were drowned alive in the river. Although there are a lot of people who drowned in it. But there are still many soldiers who continue to try to cross the river. But the results were all in vain. Doing so will only increase the number of casualties among many soldiers. In this way. It's getting worse and worse.

"The morale of our soldiers is not high. Many soldiers had not eaten for days. Can we really win such a war? "The commander inspects the battlefield. He had only a little more than 500 soldiers. Plus those scattered skirmishers. The number of people is around two thousand. But. They didn't have much fighting power to keep fighting.

"Strengthen the defense. We're going to trap those Qi troops. A lieutenant of Zhao Jun said as he walked back and forth with his gun on his back.

"Tie the barbed wire to a dense point." The lieutenant said to a soldier.

"Yes, sir." The soldier said.

"The people of Qi can't rush anymore. Why don't we kill it. "This time. A Zhao soldier asked, waving a shovel in his hand.

"Hmph. Here's the command from above. The lieutenant snorted coldly.

"We are cavalry. But he did the work of an infantryman. A Zhao cavalryman complained.

"Who made us run fast. Those damn infantry slow. A Zhao soldier said.

"It's good that we can survive." Another Zhao Jun said.

The reason why Zhao Jun did not take the initiative to attack. Their strength is still very weak. Their current presence at the bridgehead is still very small. The total strength was no more than 1,500 men. The bridgehead position was only initially established. Although reinforcements kept coming. But the defenses are still weak.

And Zhao Jun asked the cavalry to cross such a distance to carry out interspersed tasks. Its purpose was to cut off the retreat of the Qi army. So. Their biggest task at the moment is to establish a stable bridgehead position. Based on this. The Zhao army chose a conservative defensive position against them. Strengthen their defenses. They know. There will be a fierce battle going on here. They can't avoid it. But what can be done is to strengthen the defense capability.

"Da-da-da-da." And in the camp of the Qi army about a hundred miles of the river. A Qi cavalry quickly broke into the camp.

"Urgent military intelligence. Urgent military intelligence. The cavalry marched forward at a fast pace. He shouted loudly.

"Urgent military intelligence. Urgent military intelligence. The shouts of the cavalry resounded throughout the camp.

"This morning. How many emergency military situations are there. A Qi army cook asked the soldier on the side.

"I don't know. Quite a lot. Quite a bit anyway. Looks like we're not in a good situation. The Qi soldier said worriedly.

"Not really. The more this emergency military intelligence. My heart. Alas. Do not say. Cooking went. With that, the cook turned and left. But more Qi soldiers are concerned about the situation here. They know. Something is wrong with me.

"Here. And here. "In the barracks tent. A large group of Qi army generals marked the latest situation on the sand table they made.

"And here. The infantry of the Zhao army also appeared here. At this time, a general of the Qi army planted a small flag with the symbol of the Zhao army on it. And more and more places appear the symbol of the banner of the Zhao army. With more and more of these signs. The breathing of the Qi generals was about to stop. They know it all too well. What is Zhao Jun's actions doing?

Zhao Jun looked. To eat all our troops in one bite. A Qi army general said.

"It's horrible. Their appetite is just too great. The general said.

"It's scary. They're just too fast. I'm worried. Our situation here. At this time, a general of the Qi army pointed in the direction of the river and said.

"Shhhh The general kindly reminded him not to say anything more. Because Tian Heng, who is the commander, has a very ugly face at this time. Unfavorable battle reports against the Qi army. It flew like snowflakes. He couldn't breathe under the pressure. Zhao Jun's movements were very fast. Originally, there was still a glimmer of hope. At this time, I couldn't even swallow my saliva. His heart was about to jump out. News of the defeat of the Qi army was everywhere all around. There is no good news. The Qi army continued to retreat. And Zhao Jun kept pressing up.

The scariest thing is. His wings are very insecure. The cavalry of the Zhao army had already appeared on both of his flanks. More and more battle reports have pointed out the final destination of Zhao's army. That's the river. They want to block the back of the entire Qi army.

"Newspaper. Report. All the while, the cavalryman who had rushed in quickly rushed in with a report of battle.

And all the generals stopped breathing at this time, and watched the cavalry rush in with the battle report.

At this time, a Lang general quickly stepped forward to take the battle report, opened it and handed it to a general. And all the people looked at the general.

"River water." The general said only two words. All of them let out a loud sigh of relief.

"We're done." A general of the Qi army said involuntarily.

And everyone gasped. And Tian Heng heard the news. The heart is already half dead. His last hope was dashed. He hoped that the Zhao army had no intention of attacking there. But the truth is. They had already rushed over there. And bridgehead positions were created.

A Qi army general used trembling hands at this time. A banner of the Zhao army was planted on the north bank of the river. This note. The Zhao army has completed the encirclement of the Qi army as a whole.

The Qi army still had more than 80,000 men on the north bank. The Zhao army had no more than 20,000 troops. More than 20,000 surrounded more than 80,000 people. However, the speed of Qi Jun's overall information was much lower than that of Zhao Jun. This gives Zhao Jun a lot of advantages in terms of messaging.

"Whew." At this time, Tian Heng calmly exhaled and said.

"Everyone. If there's a good way to say it, try to say it. "This time. Tian Heng said helplessly. The gap between what he learned and what he made was too great. It was so big that he didn't even know what to do.

"This." Commanders, look at me. I'll look at you. Signaling that there is nothing good to be done about them themselves. Because they know. The current situation is: The main forces of the Qi army are outside. There were no troops on hand to retake the bridgehead on the north bank of the river. Most importantly. They need to build a new line of defense. to ease the pressure on them from the infantry of the Zhao army. If the situation is allowed to develop. So. The Qi army was defeated only once. Tens of thousands of men and horses will be defeated. They are well aware of the current situation.

Tian Heng didn't have any way. And Zhao Jun's aggressiveness at this time made all of them breathless.
