Chapter 37 Qin and Zhao confrontation
"Come back!"
The new army was completely disillusioned in the face of countless Qin troops, and Wang Yi said that Lian Po's army had retreated, and the only hope left in his heart was completely shattered, so he simply gave up, maybe he could save his life.
The guards hurriedly spoke out to stop it, how could the general trend have gone, the soldiers have dropped their weapons and walked out of the city wall, Wang Ji showed a smile on his face, and with a wave of his arm, the archers who had already been prepared shot out one after another, and refused to let go in the face of the Zhao army that had surrendered, which was enough to see the ferocity of the Qin army.
The arrow hit the body, blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and his finger pointed at Wang Yi, who was sneering, not wanting to be a dead end.
"There's no way back, fight with them!"
"Fight!"
The defenders of Zhao State were less than 1,000 people, and they rushed to kill, and the guards waved their weapons to block desperately, the inner city was far from being comparable to the outer city, the Qin army had an absolute advantage in numbers, the city walls on both sides fell, and the Qin army rushed inward along the city wall.
"Retreat into the alley!"
The guard killed one person and jumped down, the inner city was occupied, and the only people who could rely on it were the houses of the people and the dark alleys, and there were less than a hundred people left around.
"Glory even though you die!"
The guard laughed, "Today, we will pay tribute to 20,000 soldiers with the blood of the Qin people!" ”
Tired figure, thin body, most of the body with scars, a remnant of the army burst out with amazing combat power, less than a hundred people relied on the alley to fight with the Qin army, from noon to dusk, the defenders were killed, as the last soldier fell, all the 20,000 defenders of Light Wolf City were killed.
Wang Ji stepped forward, "I don't want the Zhao people to be so fierce, these are admirable people, and they are buried thickly!" ”
The so-called thick burial is just digging a big pit to bury all the corpses, which is better than the violent corpse wilderness, more than a dozen big pits are dug up, 20,000 defenders are all buried, the light wolf city becomes a blood city, the ground is full of blood, a gust of wind passes, lightning and thunder, heavy rain comes in an instant, the raindrops hit the ground and glow red, slowly condense into a ditch, and keep washing the blood stains on the ground.
Heavy rain is exactly what Lian Po taboos, once the heavy rain comes, the waters on three sides of the light wolf city will inevitably skyrocket, so he simply retreats to Hyunshui before the rainy season arrives.
Lian Po ascended the heights, a white electric light crossed the night sky, the light wolf city was faintly visible, the last flag representing Zhao in the light wolf city disappeared, I couldn't help sighing, the light wolf city completely fell into the hands of the Qin army, such a choice is also a helpless move, this battle Qin is different from Zhao State, Qin State is prepared, fully prepared, the soldiers will work together, raise the strength of the whole country and Zhao decisive battle, Zhao State is not, Feng Ting's letter was delivered to which there is no lack of resistance, thinking that this move will inevitably provoke Qin State to trap Zhao State in a catastrophe, although King Zhao insisted on a war, How could he raise troops in a hurry, the grain, grass, and equipment could not be compared with Qin, and the only thing he occupied was the geographical advantage.
Footsteps sounded, Lian Po turned around, and a person walking behind him was Feng Ting, his eyes fell on the sky above Light Wolf City and he couldn't help but sigh, "20,000 lives were buried in the hands of the Qin army like this!" ”
Lian Po's face was gloomy, "This is an evil deed committed by the Qin people, and one day we will have to pay for it!" ”
"Is General Lian going to use this as a line of defense to confront the Qin army?"
"Yes, this place occupies the danger of Hunshui, plus the formation of natural hazards in the eastern mountain range can protect the rear without worry, between Hanwang Mountain and Hyunshui is a flat land, which can fully exert the power of the cavalry of Zhao State, and a team of elite soldiers is stationed here, and the Qin army will definitely not be able to conquer it!"
Feng Ting nodded again and again after hearing this, "The layout of the army can be said to occupy a favorable geographical position, and the area around Danzhuling and Changping Pass is the gateway between Zhao and Shangdang, so you can't lose it!" Otherwise, the enemy will be attacked on the belly and back, the grain and grass will not be able to be transported, and the army will inevitably encounter danger! "Feng Ting has served as a county guard for many years, and he is very familiar with the terrain of Shangdang, but now that the periphery has been lost, and all the western barriers have been occupied, only by completely maintaining the eastern defense line can he hope to win.
Lian Po smiled: "County guard, please look!" After speaking, he pointed to a mountain range behind his hand, and the mountains were high and cliffs, "As long as you draw troops to build a stone city along the line here, you only need to send a small number of people to garrison it, although Changping Pass is important, but there is still a dangerous pass here, if you can hold on, you can also get rid of the worries of Danzhu Ridge!" ”
"The general refers to the dangerous place on the eastern side of the sheep's head?"
Lian Po nodded, "Just like the words of the county guard, this pass is more dangerous, although it is difficult to do, after all, it can open up the connection between Handan and the land of Shangdang, and the situation of the battlefield is changing rapidly, and it will affect the whole body, so there can be no negligence!" ”
"What General Lian said is extremely true, the east of this place is the Hyun City and Changping Yao echo, there is a high mountain for the big grain mountain, the mountain is steep and can store soldiers, horses, grain and grass!"
"Lian Po Zheng has this intention!"
Wang Di left 10,000 elite soldiers to guard the Light Wolf City, the location of the Light Wolf City is extremely important, and it is used as a base to form a natural barrier with Lao Maling, which can completely besiege the Zhao army, and also block the way of the Zhao army.
Hear the sound of water from afar, only to see a big river across the two mountains, the blue waves of the river, the flowers on the bank are red and willow green, reflect each other, the scenery is pleasant, make people linger and forget to return. Wang Ji was bent on pursuing the army of Zhao State, and had no intention of watching the scenery, "Let's see if there is a suitable place to cross the river?" ”
More than a dozen fast horses galloped out, and it didn't take long to return to the camp of the Chinese army, "Back to the commander, there are three shoals that can cross the river, the upstream water is the most turbulent, the downstream is relatively stable, there are dark stones in the middle, and there are no boats in other places that are not passable at all!" ”
"Isn't this water the water of the water?"
The spy nodded, "Exactly, the water surface is more than 100 meters wide!" ”
Wang Yuren immediately checked the terrain, a large river meandered down between the mountains, the mountains on both sides were steep, if you lay an ambush soldier it is difficult to climb at all, one of them is relatively flat, with Lian Po's personality will not give up here, his eyes fell on the opposite bank, patches of wild flowers bloomed, there was no movement at all.
"General, do you want to cross the river?"
"Send a team of men and horses first, and remember to turn back as soon as you get halfway there!"
The general received the order, admired the boss, this move must have a deep meaning, a team of people and horses into the water, the water surface swayed the waves, the body made a rattling sound forward, the deepest part reached the waist, walking was inevitably difficult, the speed was also slow, Wang Di's face was gloomy, if Lian Po launched an attack at this time, the army could not compete with it at all, Qin soldiers came to the middle and immediately returned, and returned to the shore to pat their clothes, completely wet by the water.
Wang Yi carefully looked at the shape of the opposite bank, Lian Po's army has not heard from him since Lao Maling lost its movement, could it be that the autonomy could not stop the Qin army from returning to Handan, no, it should not.
"Send two thousand more men and horses to continue crossing the river!"
"Boss, is it over or not this time?"
"Over!"
Three thousand soldiers and horses entered the water, it was summer, the heat was unbearable, the soldiers couldn't help but pour the water on their faces to cool down, there were talking and laughing gradually approaching the other side, Wang Di's expression was relaxed, and he suddenly fluttered on the edges, and a flock of birds flew up among the wild flowers.
The bird is startled, and must be frightened, "It's broken! ”
As the birds flickered their wings and flew out, the arrows then shot at the Qin army crossing the river, the Zhao army ambushed in the wildflowers took the opportunity to kill, the arrows were bursting, the Qin soldiers who had just landed on the shore had not yet formed a formation, a burst of arrows came and suddenly killed and wounded, and hurriedly went into the water to try to retreat, a team of cavalry rushed out of the east side of the canyon, the sound of horses' hooves bursts, people bent their bows and arrows on horses, many soldiers fell into the water with arrows, the river was dyed red, and the corpses floated down the water.
Lian Po laid an ambush according to the water potential, Wang Yi was also helpless, the water potential was narrow, and the army could not cross the river in an instant, and the distribution of the past would only become the fish and meat of the Zhao army, so he simply set up camp and waited for the opportunity.
The Qin army's advance troops were all killed, the river was 100 meters wide, the bow and crossbow could not be effective, the Qin army had no choice but to watch the Zhao army retreat, time passed day by day, Wang Di sent people to shout and scold in front of the formation, Lian Po smiled indifferently and disagreed, "If Wang Yu has no way to cross this water, the army will definitely not be able to advance an inch!" ”
"Lian is quite cowardly, he doesn't dare to fight a decisive battle, Zhao people are a bad breed!" Wang Di selected hundreds of high-voiced soldiers to stand on the shore and pull their necks to beg the enemy and curse the formation, lying in the shadows, Zhao Bing was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and he wanted to rush over immediately and tear his mouth, * The army ordered that no one should cross the river, once the Qin army crossed the river, they were shot by crossbow cavalry.
The more Qin Bing scolded, the more energetic he became, and it also became unpleasant, what incompetent, cowardly, turtle, not a man and other insulting words came out, it was almost noon, the sun shone on Qin Jun's face, and he scolded Zhao Jun for a morning and had to go back if he didn't see Zhao Jun come out.
Suddenly, a group of men and horses flashed on the opposite bank, the war drums were beating, the same number of hundreds of people, the Zhao people were full of food and drink, and they also opened their throats and scolded, and the scolding in the land of the party continued, the two teams of armies looked at each other, and Qin and Zhao fell into a stalemate!
