"Your Majesty! Vice General Tian has an urgent matter to see! The eunuch Ling walked to King Qi's side, glanced at the dancing girl, and said cautiously.

Since taking the Tang Dynasty, the King of Qi first rewarded the generals, and then moved to the palace to summon beautiful women who can sing and dance into the palace as companions. If it weren't for the fact that the military situation was really urgent, the eunuch Ling would not dare to disturb the Yaxing of King Qi.

King Qi was interrupted and glanced at the eunuch order with obvious displeasure. The eunuch Ling's heart is a spirit. Fortunately, King Qi didn't mean to pursue it, but just said lightly: "Xuan!" ”

After a little pause, perhaps because he felt that there were still dancing girls in the hall on the side, which was a little unorthodox and detrimental to the monarch's authority, King Qi waved to the dancing girls and slaves in the palace and said, "Let's retreat!" ”

"Whoa!" The crowd crouched down and slowly retreated.

Before long, a general with thick eyebrows and big eyes hurriedly walked in under the leadership of the eunuch Ling. After the big salute, the middle-aged general said anxiously: "Your Majesty! Big things are wrong! The army of Zhao is coming! ”

King Qi was in a panic in his heart, how could the army of Zhao come so quickly, and he still wanted to spend a few more days in Gaotang! Although he was a little nervous in his heart, King Qi put on a nonchalant look, and said disdainfully: "Come on!" Could it be that the widow is still afraid of them?! Adjutant General Tian, how many Zhao Jun came? Who is leading the troops? ”

After speaking, King Qi pricked up his ears and listened carefully. In his heart, he made up his mind, if Zhao Jun was menacing, he might as well avoid the edge for the time being! Anyway, Gao Tang himself has already taken it down! You can't still defend the city when the Zhao army counterattacks!

Vice General Tian replied in a deep voice: "Your Majesty! There are 80,000 people in the army of Zhao State, and the leader of the army is Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains! ”

"What?! Eighty thousand? King Qi's heart tightened. He is just uniting with Wei to regain the Gao Tang Dynasty that belongs to him, is Zhao Guo so prosperous?! also sent Prime Minister Zhao Sheng to lead the troops, looking like he would not give up. Could it be that Zhao Guo is going to fight with Qi and Wei?!

Vice General Tian's face became extremely heavy, and he said, "The vanguard of the Zhao army is only fifteen miles away from the Wei camp. Now we are encamping! For the king's plan, for the Qi country's plan, the minister asked the king to move to Linzi, and the matter of defending the city was handed over to the minister! The minister must try his best to ensure that Gao Tang is not lost! ”

Don't look at the Zhao army, there are only 80,000 people, but the Qi and Wei coalition forces are only 110,000! What's more, the real combat power of Zhao's army. It is by no means comparable to the Qi-Wei coalition army! The only fortunate thing is that the east of Gaotang is all Qi soil, and reinforcements are convenient. Gaotang is a strong city again, and with the Wei army's response, it is impossible for the Zhao army to break the city without paying a considerable price. However, the king of Qi is in Gaotang, and after all, the defenders will not be able to let go. Only then did Vice General Tian want to persuade King Qi to evacuate.

The king of Qi pretended to say: "The enemy army has invaded the territory on a large scale, and the widow is the king of a country. How can you retreat when you hear the enemy's situation! It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate. The widow is still sitting in Gaotang, commanding the army to repel the Zhao army! ”

Vice General Tian was anxious when he heard this, if the King of Qi stayed, wouldn't the Zhao army go crazy and attack the city?! If there is a slight mistake, his whole family will be buried for King Qi! In a hurry, Deputy General Tian naturally ignored King Qi's action of glancing at the eunuch envoy.

The eunuch Ling naturally understood the idea that King Qi wanted face and wanted to have a lining, and immediately said in a loud voice: "The minister thinks that this matter is absolutely inappropriate!" The king is the prince of all vehicles. Don't be in danger! Otherwise, where will the people of the country be placed, and where will the society of the country be? The king's residence and temple are strategizing. Generals charge into battle on the battlefield, and this is their own responsibility. The king's body is a blessing and misfortune for all the people, don't worry about the whole country of Qi because of a small loss! ”

Vice General Tian hurriedly said yes, and sighed in his heart that the eunuch Ling was worthy of being a close minister of the king, and he put on this high hat. If the king of Qi does not return to Linzi, he will ignore the well-being of all the people of Qi. Because of this, Vice Admiral Tian swore an oath: "The minister must do his best to die, and it won't be long before the minister will repel the Zhao army." When the time comes. Wouldn't it be beautiful for the king to get on the car and then move to Gaotang to reward the meritorious soldiers! ”

King Qi pretended to sigh embarrassedly, and said helplessly: "I'm afraid that the widow is here, Deputy General Tian is not good to perform!" That's it! The widow handed over Gao Tang City to Deputy General Tian. Vice General Tian must not live up to the expectations of the widow! ”

"The minister must keep it in mind and swear to die!" Vice General Tian breathed a sigh of relief and said busily.

King Qi smiled and waved his hand, saying, "With the flames of war, the people will not be able to live in peace." Every time the widow thinks of this, his heart aches! In order to repel the Zhao army as much as possible, the widow sent the prime minister to lead the troops to support, how about helping Deputy General Tian? ”

Deputy General Tian was overjoyed when he heard this, and with the support of the prime minister, he would be invincible. As soon as he wanted to tactfully express his hope that Linzi would send troops to support, King Qi took the initiative to accept it so considerately, which saved a lot of effort.

"Your Majesty, see if we can set off for Linzi as much as possible, so as to coordinate the overall situation and save the ministers and the people from worrying." The eunuch on the side asked for instructions. The Zhao army is not yet besieged, but it is always good to escape from this place that is about to become a battlefield sooner. The eunuch Ling didn't have the idea of returning to Linzi, a safe place, as soon as possible. It is natural to persuade the king of Qi to be safe, after all, if the king of Qi is safe, he can be safe as a eunuch.

King Qi nodded, and instructed Deputy General Tian: "The news of the widow's departure is blocked first, so as not to make the army unstable!" Deputy General Tian still seized the time to prepare the city defense. ”

"Whoa!"

Nanyang County, Wuguan.

The morning sun is rising, and the first rays of sunshine of the new year are sprinkled on the city of Wuguan, reflecting a fiery red. The smoke of last night's gunpowder has not completely dissipated, the broken flags, the corpses everywhere, the ownerless war horses, the vast world is bleak and desolate. It is completely forgotten that today is the first day of the new year. Those soldiers who died last night had no chance to see the sunshine of the New Year, and those who survived were not as happy as they imagined. No one knows how long this battle will last, how many battles will break out before it stops, and how long he will be lucky in these countless battles.

The Korean army at the head of the city has changed five waves, initially it was the 5,000 elites who were originally stationed at Wuguan, and now most of them have died in battle; The second wave was 2,000 reinforcements, which had also been wiped out; The next three waves were reinforcements from Wancheng, and the losses were heavy.

The Korean army lost more than 10,000 people before and after, in exchange for nearly three times the casualties of the Qin army. But the Qin army fought to the death and did not retreat, and almost dragged down the Han army in Nanyang with human lives. If it weren't for the Yulin army rushing out and killing a few times, it attracted a lot of troops from the Qin army. The consequences are unpredictable.

The casualties of the Korean army were so large, the strong attack of the Qin army was a factor on the one hand, and on the other hand, the first two waves of the Korean army faced the Qin army with absolute superiority, and it was not until the arrival of the army in Wancheng that the ratio of forces between the two sides dropped to an acceptable ratio for the Korean army.

Jin Di stood at the head of the city, looking at the smoke outside the city. Silent. The resilience of the Qin army was beyond Jin Di's imagination. Knowing that Wuguan was a fortified city, and knowing that he had arrived with reinforcements, the Qin army would not retreat. The second batch of reinforcements has already departed from Wancheng and will arrive today according to the itinerary. At that time, Qin Jun's life will be even more difficult. Unless the Qin State continues to increase its troops, it will have to helplessly watch as its own forces become more and more until it overwhelms the other side.

It is undeniable that the Qin army commanded by the commander of the Qin army on the opposite side, Lu Gong, had the upper hand at the beginning and inflicted heavy losses on the Han army at a very small cost. But times have changed. Now it's yourself who has the initiative. According to the current casualty ratio, as long as the fighting lasts for another two days, the number of Qin troops will be inferior. Jin Huang felt that it was time for the Qin army to retreat. Don't look at the Qin army's unstoppable courage now, that's because with a breath in his mouth, once he is frustrated and realizes that there is no hope of recapturing Wuguan, it is definitely war-weary and irretrievable.

Jin Huang is like a patient hunter. Quietly waiting for the moment when the morale of the Qin army will fail. Although almost no one in the entire Wuguan City is now unwounded, Jin Huang thinks that such a price is worth it. If you are bitter, you will suffer. The Qin army is even worse, and it is even difficult to ride a tiger at the moment. Abandon it, the price paid has been so much, reluctant; Go on, I don't know how many lives it will take to fill it in to recapture Wuguan. The so-called authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and the truth is simple. But the Duke may not understand.

The smoke of the cooking stove rose in Wuguan City, and the Korean army began to prepare their ordnance and food in an orderly manner. The fighting in the past few days has allowed the Korean army to find out the rules of the Qin army, and almost after breakfast, the Qin army will launch the first wave of siege. Of course. The kind-hearted Qin army will make a "surprise" in advance from time to time before or when the Han army has not yet eaten. Last night's battle lasted for most of the night, and the fierceness of the battle was definitely the fiercest since the start of the war. The Qin army lost a full 4,000 troops, but did not gain an inch of land. The Han army didn't think that the Qin army would make a big funeral for this, and even forgot to attack the city.

"Lord Gunjo! Lord Gunjo! A captain ran over breathlessly, looking relieved, surprised, and annoyed.

Jin Huang knew who was coming when he heard the voice. He handed over the task of listening to the movements of the Qin army's camp under the city to the other party to keep an eye on, thinking that there was the latest news from the Qin army. However, I have repeatedly explained that I need to meditate every time I am in a big event, and I look like this panicked, what kind of system it becomes. So Jin Huang just snorted coldly and didn't turn around to talk.

The lieutenant immediately realized his faux pas, but the news was so shocking that he was a little out of his mind in excitement. After calming down his excitement a little, the lieutenant arched his hand and said, "Lord County Guard! According to the scout's report, the camp of the Qin army under the city has been emptied! ”

"What? The Qin army retreated?! Jin Di turned around and said with half confusion and half surprise. If the Qin army retreated, then his plan would be chaotic.

"Yes!" The captain said with great certainty: "Thinking that the strong attack of the Qin army last night was to puzzle our army, when the scouts went to investigate as soon as possible, they found that the Qin army was too quiet, and when they boldly stepped forward to investigate, they found that the Qin army had retreated, and the entire battalion was completely empty. ”

"Pass my order, send a hundred Yulin troops to investigate, be sure to verify the movements of the Qin army, and ensure that there is no ambush in the camp." Jin Di thought for a moment and commanded.

"Whoa!" The herald on the side quickly retreated. The rest of the generals also understood that the retreat of the Qin army was smelling abnormal. The reason for the failure is that the Qin army retreated and wanted to lure the main force of the Korean army out of the city. As long as the Han army is defeated outside the city, the Qin army can completely take Wuguan in one go. For Qin Jun, the previous dilemma was naturally solved.

Soon, more than 100 elite cavalry feather forests swarmed out, and within half an hour, the chief who was in charge of leading the team came to Jin Di's side and said respectfully: "General Qiyu!" Twenty miles to the west, he did not find any trace of the Qin army. However, traces of the Qin army's chariots and horses were found on the road, and the main force of the Qin army had undoubtedly retreated. ”

Jin Huang nodded expressionlessly, and instructed: "Continue to track westward, and once you find the movements of the Qin army, report it immediately." ”

The uncle's face was overjoyed, and he responded: "Oh! ”

"The rest of the generals have their own duties. Without the order of the county guard, it is not allowed to go out of the city to pursue the Qin army without authorization. Violators, behead! Jin Yu continued.

"Whoa!" The generals said solemnly. looked at each other, and they all understood Jin Di's intentions. Don't look at the heavy casualties of the Qin army, but now there are at least more than 20,000 complete combat strength, and more than 10,000 Korean troops are fine to defend the city, but they have to fight with 20,000 Qin troops in the field, and there are fewer victories and more defeats. It's better to wait for Wancheng's reinforcements to arrive before making plans. (To be continued......)
