Let's start with the West Bank barrier where the crowd will have high hopes.

Not to mention that it has been damaged after a major battle, even if Zhao Kuo mobilized tens of thousands of troops to repair it continuously, it would be difficult to repair the old and completely restore the original defensive power.

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, the barrier has been repaired, and the innate problem of poor internal defense of the barrier alone is doomed to not last long.

What's more, the offensive of the Qin army is a two-sided attack, and the 50,000 troops on the barrier have nearly 30,000 horses, but they are only a temporary patchwork of the people's strong army, although they have experienced the first battle of the fortress, but compared with the elite Qin army, there is obviously still a big gap.

Therefore, Zhao Kuo's order to Xu Li was only to hold on for three days. Even according to Zhao Kuo's original intention, it didn't matter if he held it for three days or not, as long as he could kill and injure the Qin army as much as possible, it was enough; The three-day period is more of a word of comfort for the people to hear. With this three-day appointment, we can give the soldiers a reassurance, and only then can they rest assured that they can defend the fortress.

Of course, with the strength of the barrier and the ability of the calendar, it should not be a problem to keep it for three days. And in the third day, it was basically the limit of the barrier army.

When the three-day period arrives, and the walls are broken, almost all the pressure will be pressed on the hundreds of temporary fortresses.

Although each fortress is built according to the terrain and can be regarded as a dangerous place, it is not as dangerous as the fortress, and the fortress can only be held for three days, and the limit of the limit is that the fortress can last for a day or two.

However, although the fortress is small, its large number adds a few points to it, coupled with Zhao Kuo's secret tactical arrangement, it is that the Qin army wants to pull it out one by one, and it also takes some effort.

But in the end, no matter whether it is a barrier or a fortress, it cannot change the fundamental situation on the battlefield.

And what about the northern road where Zhao Kuo concentrated his combat power? Can the situation be reversed?

I'm afraid not.

Because Zhao Kuo didn't have 80,000 cavalry in his hands at all! Not even fifty thousand. More cavalry had already been transferred to the Daliangshan barracks.

Even if Zhao Kuo had all the combat power, he would not be able to break through the encirclement of the Qin army's northern front at all.

Because the opponent Bai Qi had arranged a full 100,000 cavalry plus 30,000 elite infantry on the northern road, the most likely escape route of the Zhao army, even if the cavalry of the Zhao army could fight back and forth with the cavalry of the Qin army, the remaining infantry soldiers would not be able to break through the defense line composed of 30,000 elite soldiers.

Moreover, once the Zhao army withdrew from the defense line of Guangwolf City and completely invested its forces on the northern road, the Qin army's forces in Guangwolf City were also liberated. An army of 100,000 can support the northern route at any time and block the way for the Zhao army to flee north. Even if the Zhao army doubled its strength, it would be difficult to break through.

At least the formation of troops to break through, it is basically impossible, let alone defeat the Qin army.

Therefore, Zhao Kuo, who was given high hopes by the generals, actually had no intention of breaking through at all, nor did he think that he would be able to reverse the tide of the battle.

Obviously, Zhao Jun has fallen into a dead end carefully arranged by Bai Qi, a dead end that Zhao Jun has to drill, and a dead end that he cannot get rid of if he drills.

And everything that Zhao Kuo arranged had only one purpose from beginning to end: to get into the Qin army's trap, preserve his strength as much as possible, and kill and injure the Qin army's living force as much as possible.

If you don't get into the Qin army, you can't induce the Qin army to have all its strength;

Unless the strength of the Qin army is forced, the combat strength of the Qin army cannot be effectively killed;

Without killing the combat strength of the Qin army, the Wei army will not come forward to disrupt the situation;

Characters who do not preserve their own strength and cannot receive the final victory.

Of course, the matter has come to this point, and the ending is no longer beyond Zhao Kuo's control. However, I have to admit that no matter how bad the final outcome is, because of the change of the sky in Daliangshan, it is impossible for the Qin army to slaughter 400,000 Zhao troops as in history.

On the west bank of Danshui, the only thing Zhao Kuo could do was to gather the will of the 300,000 army and resolutely give the Qin army a hard blow. As for the final victory, it depends on whether Lian Po can invite reinforcements in time, and it also depends on the timing of Daliangshan's elite attack......

Like a big gamble, the 300,000 troops on the west bank of Danshui, including Zhao Kuo himself, are just a ticket, not even a bargaining chip.

Fortunately, under Zhao Kuo's performance of "suppressing first and then promoting", the generals of the Zhao army were not full of confidence, but at least regained some of their confidence, and it was enough to go into battle with such a mood. As for the rest, blood will be the best class.

Seeing that the generals had no objections, Zhao Kuo immediately ordered the army to move again.

Coincidentally, the cavalry units in the Zhao army happened to be concentrated in the north, while the infantry were mostly concentrated in the south, which was much less chaotic.

However, in the eyes of the generals, such a coincidence is the best evidence that the general had predicted, and of course this is not a coincidence at all.

In any case, nearly 300,000 Zhao troops quickly turned around more than ten miles away from the fortress of Guangwolf City, one was dominated by cavalry, and rushed towards the north road, while the main force was the rear team to the front team, slowly retreating towards the fortress along the way.

Zhao Jun's retreat naturally couldn't hide from Qin Jun's eyes and ears. Everyone else was fine, but the Light Wolf City Lord General Sima was wrong, and he was directly stunned on the spot.

"Lao Tzu stayed up all night, and finally adjusted the defense line in place, you came to attack it, and try the quality of this barrier! What if it's just an empty city! Sima couldn't help but wail in his heart.

It's no wonder that Sima was stunned. After Bai Qi dispatched the army to the north and south, Sima Cuo can be said to have exhausted himself, reorganized the new soldiers and veterans, adjusted the defensive measures, and did not sleep for a few days and nights, and even because of the matter of the reserves, he even had trouble with Wu Anjun Bai, in order to increase the strength of the defensive soldiers of the fortress.

You didn't even fight?

Are you worthy of me!

Sima Cuo's face turned from white to blue, obviously a little difficult to accept this news.

Don't say that Sima was wrong, even Wu Anjun was stunned when he first heard the news that the whole army of Zhao Jun had turned.

Did I overestimate Zhao Kuo, the commander of the Zhao army, or did I underestimate him?

Just got the news that our army had built a barrier in the Light Wolf City, so he decisively ordered a turnaround?

Is the sense of smell on the battlefield so sensitive?

What about the reckless man who said that he was inexperienced?

"I really don't know whether to praise Zhao Kuo for being cautious and careful, or to scold him for being cowardly as a mouse." Bai Qi shook his head helplessly, and kept scolding in his heart.

However, Bai Qi was a battle-hardened person in the end, and he quickly recovered from his shock.

"That's it! Zhao Jun did not attack, but there were fewer surprises. Bai Qi looked at Sima Cuo and comforted him slightly, then turned around and gave an order to the generals.
