Chapter 922: Grasshoppers after Autumn
At this time, Qing Ji looked at it, saw its chaos, and watched its flag, and his heart was still a little hesitant.
This is indeed a sign of defeat.
The soldiers of the Zhao army and the Zhongshan army threw away their armor and only cared about escaping, without the slightest idea of counterattacking.
Xu Menchao, who was on the side, followed: "King, the minister thinks that Zhan is as the general said."
"Don't miss the opportunity, never miss it. Now that the enemy army has been defeated and fled, if Zhao Jun can be captured and killed, and then Jinyang can be broken by the situation, Zhao State will be like a dead country!"
"The King!"
Hearing this, Qingji waved his hand and said, "Mingjin, collect the troops."
"Why is this so, my lord?"
"Poor don't chase. Zhao Ying, this person, is good at using soldiers, talking about deceit and cunning, he is no less than a widow."
Qingji squinted his eyes and said, "If the widow is him, he will definitely not be stupid enough to use the last living force of the Zhao State to fight Wu Jun head-on."
The people who know themselves best are often their enemies.
When Zhao was already at the end of his life, shrinking his defensive line and holding on to Jinyang City to wait for reinforcements from other countries to come to reinforcements was the best countermeasure that Zhao Ying could use.
At such a time, how could Zhao Ying be arrogant?
Qingji hadn't thought of this before.
Now, looking at the enemy army fleeing in a panic, Qingji can already guess a rough idea in his heart.
If Qingji guesses wrong, it doesn't matter.
Anyway, Zhao Ying is already a grasshopper after the autumn, and he can't jump for too long.
"Newspaper—"
After a long time, a small colonel hurriedly came to report to Pegasus, "My lord, something is wrong!"
"Zhang Gongzi's troops and horses were in the area of Baiwuling, and they were ambushed by the Zhao army!"
Hearing this, Qingji looked around, looked at the Wu army generals behind him, and said, "Xu Men Nest, Zhanru."
"The minister is here!"
"The two of you immediately lead 20,000 soldiers and horses to the White Mist Ridge to gallop to help and rescue Wu Zhang and them!"
"No!"
The cavalry led by Gongzizhang pursued too quickly, so the previous Qingji, the order had not yet been conveyed in place.
Now, Gongzi Zhang's troops and horses have been ambushed, and Qingji can calmly dispatch troops to rescue them.
……
Changping.
In the big tent of the Chinese army of the Zhao army, Yin Duo, Zhao Wuxian and other generals all had solemn expressions.
Miserable!
They got the news that the army led by Zhao Ying had once again lost in Qi County, suffered heavy losses, and had to withdraw to Jinyang City to rest.
The original Zhongshan reinforcements were not much left.
In a fit of rage, Zhongshan Jun had already withdrawn the soldiers and horses to save Zhao.
In other words, Qi County has been completely occupied by the Wu army.
At this time, the main force of the Zhao army on the Changping front line could not get the grain and straw supplies from Jinyang.
The grain road was cut off, which meant that the day when the Zhao army was defeated was not far away.
"Da Sima, now that the army is running out of food and grass, the people are panicking, and the soldiers have to kill horses to satisfy their hunger."
Zhao Wuxian sighed and said, "The supplies from Jinyang's side can no longer be counted on."
"Wu Manzi changed his previous posture and chose to confront our army instead of attacking the camp, clearly wanting to consume our Zhao army."
"I don't think we can afford to wait like this. If we wait until all the horses are killed and eaten, and there are no grass roots and no bark, the soldiers will inevitably flee in large numbers, and the army will be crushed."
"In that case, why don't the army launch a counterattack and fight with Wu Manzi?"
Hearing this, Yin Duo smiled bitterly and said, "Fight? Childe, with all due respect, what will I, Zhao Jun, fight with Wu Jun?"
[The app that has been running stably for many years is comparable to the old version of the book-chasing artifact, which is used by old bookworms.]
We are waiting for our army to launch a counteroffensive, so that we can instigate the whole army to deal with it and strike later."
"Therefore, taking the initiative to fight, for my Zhao Jun, the odds of winning are too small......
Zhao Wuxian gritted his teeth and said, "Trapped in Changping is tantamount to death."
"Fight hard with Wu Manzi and fight for your life, maybe you can put him to death and come back to life, and win an unexpected victory."
Yin Duo fell into deep thought.
As a veteran of the battlefield, Yin Duo is clearly aware.
In a head-on battle, Zhao Jun was not Wu Jun's opponent at all.
Not to mention that the chief general of the Wu army on the opposite side is Wu Zixu, who has long been famous in the world and has a deep plan, just the sharpness of the weapons and equipment of the Wu army under his command and the strength of the combat power are not comparable to the Zhao army.
This is why the Zhao army chose to build fortifications at the beginning of the war, after losing several battles.
Playing with Wu Jun?
That's clearly looking for death.
At least, Yin Duo couldn't see how much chance Zhao Jun could win.
"It's really inappropriate to sit in Changping now."
After Yin Duo pondered for a moment, he said, "For today's plan, our army can only break through."
"Where are you going to break through?"
"Jinyang, or Handan."
"Handan is not advisable."
Zhao Wuxian vetoed without hesitation, and said, "Handan City has long been surrounded by Tian Sui Tho's troops, and there, my Zhao army can't enter or get out."
"It may be possible to break through to Jinyang. Jinyang City has a lot of grain, and the city is high and deep, and the fortifications are very strong, so it is most suitable to rely on the mediation of Jinyang City and Wu Manzi."
Hearing this, Yin Duo smiled bitterly and said, "Childe, don't hide it. At this point, no matter where our army chooses to break through, it will inevitably encounter a big battle, and there is a danger that it will be exposed to the enemy on its back."
"Here in Changping, if the Zhao army moves, the Wu army will move. Son, you can lead the army north to Jinyang, break through as much as possible, and bring as many men and horses back as you can."
"Old man, you can break off the prince and fight a bloody battle with Wu Jun!"
"The Great Sima ......"
The look on Zhao Wuxian's face was very complicated.
What does it mean after the break, Zhao Wuxian knows very well.
I saw Yin Duo say meaningfully: "The monarch does not think that I Yin Duo is despicable, and entrusts me with a heavy responsibility, and I am grateful. Now is the time for the old man to repay the king's kindness."
……
The next day, after some careful planning, Changping's Zhao army began to break through.
Zhao Wuxian led 80,000 horses all the way north and returned to Jinyang, while Yin Duo led the Zhao army of less than 30,000 people to take charge of the break and fight with the Wu army for his life.
When he saw the initiative to attack, Wu Zixu had already realized that something was wrong.
"It's not good, Zhao people want to withdraw!"
Wu Zixu held the sword in his hand and stood on top of the chariot to give orders.
"At all costs, kill all the Zhao troops who are in front of our army, and leave no one behind!"
"No!"
Wu Zixu is a ruthless man who is good at fighting a war of annihilation.
At such times, it is undoubtedly more "cost-effective" to decapitate the enemy than to capture the enemy.
"Kill me!"
Yin Duo waved the spear in his hand, one man and one horse, and took the lead in killing into the phalanx of the Wu army, and he fought a bloody way with the courage of a horseman.
Zhao Jun's sharp soldiers are also very strong.
At the moment when their lives were most threatened, they burst out with extraordinary combat effectiveness.
Basically, two or three Zhao soldiers died, and only one person died on the Wu army's side.
However, this still made Wu Zixu very distressed.
Zhao Jun is an elite division, why not Wu Jun?
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Hugh Hugh!"
When the Zhao army broke through to a narrow area, the Wu army's crossbowmen, who had long been ambushed on both sides of the mountain road, fired arrows in unison.
Suddenly, densely
Ma's crossbow arrows, like locusts crossing the border, quickly shot hundreds of Zhao soldiers.
"Poof!"
Yin Duo, who rushed to the front, had more than a dozen crossbow arrows on various parts of his body, and blood was splashed everywhere.
Yin Duo slowly lowered his head, looked at the crossbow arrows on his body, and finally gritted his teeth, and fell unwillingly in a pool of blood, dying of anger.
