Chapter 265: The Helplessness of the Turtle Shell

"My lord, there is a lot of fire outside the south gate, it should be that King Han is preparing to escape."

In the woods outside the south gate of Hancheng, a military general walked up to Zhao Ji to report.

These people were the same Zhao Ji and his party who had just been ordered by Qin Wu to rush from the west gate to the south gate to ambush them. Because scouts had been sent to clean up the players and NPCs outside the south gate in advance, and then the army did not light a large number of torches when it moved, Zhao Ji led 10,000 soldiers to ambush in the forest, and did not attract the attention of the king of Han in Hancheng.

And because it was late at night and the lights were blind, the storm kite didn't expect that there would be 10,000 fewer people at Ximen at this time.

No one could have imagined that Ximen, who was originally the strongest and used as the main direction of the attack, was now the emptiest side of the army. If Han Wangan wants to break through, it can be said that the success rate of breaking through from the West Gate is the highest, but unfortunately, everyone was frightened by Qin Wu, thinking that the West Gate was the base camp of the Wu army, and Han Wangan did not dare to confront the main force of the Wu army at this time, so he naturally chose the south gate where no one was.

"Hide yourself and wait for them to come."

Zhao Ji said.

Han Wangan led the army to flee for his life, and there were naturally many scouts in front of him, but this black light blinded, and the scout's reconnaissance vision was reduced to an extreme, and the speed of intelligence feedback was also extremely slow, because he was worried about being pursued by the military army who found the situation here, and the speed of Han Wang'an and his party was not slow, so the efficiency of scout's reconnaissance was extremely poor.

Zhao Ji led 10,000 armed troops to ambush in the depths of the dense forest, and set up an ambush, a small number of scouts entered the dense forest to investigate, but there was no return, there was no time to transmit information to the outside, and they were killed by the ambushed soldiers in the dense forest.

"Doctor, do you think there will be an ambush by Qin Wu outside this city?"

In a golden luxury chariot, Han Wang'an was dressed in military armor, carrying a sword at his waist and carrying a longbow, and asked Li Yang, who was riding on a horse beside him.

"I didn't get the information that there are a large number of armed forces outside the south gate, and the enemy may be holding the idea of encircling three and missing one, and doesn't want to fight to the death with us, so there shouldn't be an ambush by Qin Wu here."

After thinking for a while, Li Yang said.

Although he said so, Li Yang's heart was also in turmoil at this time, how could one of the seven heroes of the dignified Zhou Dynasty be forced into such a situation by a rabble who had betrayed the Qin State.

"Huh? Why are there so many straws and branches on the ground? ”

After walking for a while, looking at the straw and branches everywhere under his feet, Li Yang suddenly felt a little wrong in his heart.

This thought didn't last long, and there was an immediate movement in the woods on one side, and countless soldiers in red armor came out of the woods with torches. The largest number of them turned out to be archers, who took out their longbows and put their swords on the torches, and the arrows burst into flames.

Rocket!

"It's not !! good"

Seeing so many archers lighting rockets, and thinking of these straws and branches around him, Li Yang's complexion suddenly changed dramatically, and he screamed.

Sou! Sou! Sou!

The will of the Wu army archers who bent their bows and arrows were not diverted by Li Yang's exclamation, and with the sound of arrows breaking through the air, thousands of rockets crossed a yellow trajectory in mid-air, and the parabola fell into the formation of the Korean Janissaries.

The flames on the arrows ignited the straw and branches on the ground, and the ground under the feet of the 10,000 Praetorian Guards suddenly burst into flames.

Qin Wu had laid out not only straw and branches here, but also a lot of fire oil looted from various towns and sprinkled on these ignitions. This time it encountered an open flame, and it suddenly burst into flames.

"Battlefield Hint: The ambush is successful, and the morale of the military army is +1!"

"Battlefield Tips: The fire plan is successful, and the morale of the South Korean Praetorian Guard is -1!"

Battlefield prompts rang one after another.

"Extinguish the fire, extinguish the fire!"

Looking at the flames on the ground, Li Yang hurriedly shouted.

On the slope outside the woods, the Wujun archers were still firing rockets, and beside them was a team of captains Ge Wubing, under the command of various officers, rushing towards the panicked enemy in front of them.

On this side, some of the Praetorian Guards were rushing towards the enemy, while others were busy extinguishing the flames around them, and their movements were inconsistent.

The Wu army archers unscrupulously poured arrows on the hillside outside the woods, while the Korean army archers were trapped in the large army formation, and occasionally counterattacked, but the strength was not enough, but it provoked the collective fire of the Wu army archers.

Even though this is an elite Praetorian Guard of 10,000 people, it is also at a disadvantage when it encounters Zhao Ji's ambush.

The battle at the south gate here began, and Xi Qishu and Feng Quji, who had been feintting to attack the east and west gates just now, immediately rushed towards the south gate with a large army.

Looking at the suddenly withdrawn Wu army, the Han army at the head of the city was puzzled for a while, and when the battle stopped, they inquired about the information, only to find that the king of Han had left the Han city with the most elite Praetorian Guards, and was ambushed outside the city, and at the same time, there was a large-scale rout of soldiers at the south gate.

After getting these two important news, all the Han soldiers were stunned.

Some people's thoughts are that the king of Han gave up Hancheng, and the Han soldiers at the south gate also gave up Hancheng, so what do we stay and defend the city?

The idea of the other part of the people is to serve the country loyally and want to go outside the city to rescue King Han.

No matter what kind of idea you have, you have to go out of the city. But the difference is that the latter went out of the city to rescue directly under the command of the generals, while the former took advantage of the chaos to rush into Hancheng, or find relatives to flee together, or loot, get some money to escape, and prepare enough food before fleeing.

The Korean army, which was originally unanimous with the outside world, suddenly fell apart because of two thoughts, and the actions of the two sides were inconsistent, and the resistance in Hancheng suddenly decreased greatly.

Only the north gate with the tyrant kite is still in the Qin Wu fight, the two sides launched a fierce street battle around Han Cheng, even if Qin Wu, Feng Zheng and Xi Qi Shu took the lead, but the Wu army was hit by the Han soldiers on the streets and alleys and in the houses in the street battle, and the losses were quite large for a while.

And because he knew how powerful Qin Wu was, the Storm Kite didn't take the initiative to come up and fight with Qin Wu at all, even if the Han soldiers of the Storm Kite Legion were demoralized a little by Qin Wu's majestic stunts, but with the help of the geographical advantage in the city and the endless flow of Korean soldiers behind him, it seemed that there was no end to the Korean soldiers, and the Storm Kite was sure to drag Qin Wu in the city and hold on until the arrival of reinforcements.

It's a pity that the wish of the violent kite can't be realized anyway, no matter how hard he works to defend the city, under the corruption of most people, Han Cheng will be lost today.

As the strongest elite soldier in South Korea, the Janissaries initially had a little higher morale than the ordinary army, and with the flames in the array being extinguished, after a period of panic, the Korean Janissaries finally stabilized their position, recovered a little of the morale that had been reduced by the fire plan, and launched a strong counterattack against the military army that rushed out of the woods.

However, at this time, Xi Qishu and Feng Quji, who came from the east and west, also happened to lead a large army to arrive, and they united with Zhao Ji with a total of 40,000 people, and launched a siege against 10,000 Korean Janissaries.

Suddenly attacked, the Praetorian Guards did not have time to arrange the battle formation, and at the same time the flanks and abdomen were attacked by the enemy, and they were already at a disadvantage.

Then the Korean reinforcements chased out of the city were late, but the 10,000 rear troops left behind by Feng Quji and Xi Qishu completely isolated them from the Janissaries of King Han.

Feng Quji and Xi Qishu led the front army and the Chinese army to launch the most ferocious attack on the Korean Janissaries, and on the other hand, they sent the rear army to turn around and meet the enemy reinforcements that arrived one after another, and the battle situation has been in the hands of the Wu army from the beginning to the present.

It didn't take long for Qin Wu and Storm Kite, who were fighting in Beicheng, to get the information that King Han abandoned the city and fled, but was ambushed outside the city by the prepared Wu army.

For a time, the morale of the Wu army was high, and the morale of the Han soldiers was plummeting, I heard that the king had given up Han Cheng, and even met an ambush outside the city, many people wanted to turn around and flee, and many people also wanted to go out of the city to rescue the king of Han, but there was a violent kite sitting in Beicheng, and the Han soldiers of his legion had a slight change, and they were immediately suppressed by him with iron blood.

Seeing the storm kite hiding in the army formation like a turtle with a shrunken head, calmly and orderly commanding the army to attack the Wu army, Qin Wu only felt hatred itching his teeth.

Qin Wu was not afraid of a brave general like Meng Tian, but he was irritated by a wise general like Xiang Storm Kite who governed the army calmly and orderly.

If the former has low force, he can defeat it directly, and if the force is high, Qin Wu can besiege it, or he can win with wisdom, but in the face of a general like a violent kite, who does not seek merit but seeks no fault, it is like biting his fangs on a turtle shell, Qin Wu has no other way except to hate his teeth itching.

"Feng Zheng, you stay in place of me and continue to command the army to attack the city."

Unable to defeat the Han army in the city for a while and a half, Qin Wu shouted at Feng Zheng who was not far away, then turned his horse's head and rushed out of the city.

Standing on a tall building in the city and watching Qin Wu's departure, Storm Kite's brows suddenly furrowed.

He believed that he could hold Hancheng before the border army returned to help, even if there was such a thing as the sudden fall of the North City Gate, but the king of Han did not believe him, and the Korean civil and military ministers did not believe him, so he fled out of the city with the strongest army in the city, and was caught by the enemy's ambush.

In this case, it is as if the turtle shell of the violent kite blocked the enemy's fangs and claws, but as soon as the enemy stretched his sharp claws into the turtle shell a little bit, the tender meat inside immediately jumped out of the protection of the turtle shell in fright, and then was caught by the enemy.

For such a situation, the storm kite can only look up to the sky and sigh, helpless. Seeing Qin Wu ride away alone, he didn't have any choice.

The violent kite here felt helpless, but the South Korean Prime Minister Gong Zhongxuan over there felt a lot of regret.

What to run? It's okay now, I didn't get far before I was caught.

At the same time, Gong Zhongxuan was also full of fear of Qin Wu's wisdom. Under the condition that Han Cheng would soon be supported by 60,000 border troops, Qin Wu could still calculate that King Han would abandon the city and flee.

This ploy really frightened him, a B-class historical strategist.

(Unconsciously, God of War has gone from 180,000 words just on the shelves to 720,000 now.) God of War is not the worst book of the Demon God, but people always look forward, and no one can stop it, the results of this book are much inferior after all, and many people who subscribe higher than God of War have given up halfway, otherwise the update will be intermittent. For those who are competing on the new book list at the same time, the second book has been on the shelves for almost a month.

Among the demon gods, there have been many times when there have been plans to give up the god of war and reopen a new book, but think about it, forget it, continue to write, write more than a million words, and finish the complete plot of the idea, there are enough people in the palace, there is no need for me to have one more.

In the new book period, the demon god also said that the god of war wants to make up for some of the regrets of no one, and the regrets in the initial clicks and recommendations have been made up, so thank you for your support here. Although the results on the shelves are very sad, but being a man of his word must be done, and the demon god must still write the end of the god of war well to make up for the regret that no one ended in a hurry and was unfinished.

I hope the next book can make up for the lack of God of War subscriptions, hehe.
