Battle of Changping Chapter 144 Yingyi led the army into the mountains

In the dense woods, the 30,000 army led by Zhao Wei had been lurking all day, but fortunately, the tall trees covered the sky and the sun, blocking most of the summer heat.

Even so, Zhao Wei was still a little bored in his heart, and he didn't even use much for dinner. Among them, there are not only worries about the body of Zhao Kuo in the Chinese army, but also worries about the battle in front of him.

According to Zhao Kuo's instructions, if the Qin army, which could not be stationed to reinforce the eastern battlefield before noon tomorrow, he and his tens of thousands of troops would immediately retreat. And this also means that the "encirclement and reinforcement" operation has failed.

Once this operation fails, the Qin army is bound to make some adjustments, and it is almost impossible to find such an opportunity. In other words, Zhao Jun will completely fall into a situation of being passively beaten. This is something that the soldiers of the Zhao army, including Zhao Kuo, never want to accept.

But now that half of the stipulated time has passed, let alone the reinforced Qin army, I haven't even seen a figure.

He raised his head and looked at the moon that had been covered by dark clouds, and then looked into the distance to his right - in the pass of Qifeng Mountain, a few birds flew up from time to time, and the 10,000 troops led by the generals who attacked the Qin army had already arrived, and they were busy reorganizing their soldiers.

Perhaps, staying outside the fortress and eating those thousands of Qin troops completely is the best choice.

Zhao Wei was a little remorseful, if he went by himself, he would definitely be able to take the Qin army's camp, so that even if the ambush was not successful, the loss of the eight thousand Qin army would be enough to comfort the damage of the army yesterday......

It's not that Zhao Wei doesn't trust Zhao Kuo's arrangement, it's that Zhao Kuo himself is not completely sure, otherwise he wouldn't have ordered Zhao Wei to withdraw if the Qin army didn't arrive at noon tomorrow.

It's just that there has never been a regret medicine in this world.

Just thinking about it, a probe horse quietly entered the forest and soon came to Zhao Wei's side.

"General." Tanma lowered his voice and reported in a low but firm voice: "Five miles away, if you find the traces of the Qin army, I am afraid that it will only take half an hour to pass through here. ”

"Oh?!" Zhao Wei's heart was excited, and sure enough, he was still calculated by my general.

Immediately got up, woke up the generals on the side, and said: "Prepare for war quickly, the Qin army will be here soon!" ”

"Yes!" When the generals who woke up heard Zhao Wei's words, they immediately became excited, and after agreeing, they immediately carried their knives and went to their respective defense areas.

Rolling wood, hay, and fire oil were already prepared there, and the soldiers who were already asleep were carefully woken up one by one, and between the whole outfit and delivery, the originally quiet mountains and forests instantly became a little restless, but they were quickly calmed down under the suppression of their respective captains. Fortunately, the birds and beasts in the mountains have long been captured by the army, and even if they want to report to the Qin army, they can't do it.

"Order the Seven Peaks Mountain to prepare for battle!" Zhao Wei continued to give orders to the heralds on the side.

Seven Peaks Mountain, called Seven Peaks, is actually the homonym of "Qi Peak", or maybe there are several drums on the peaks, so it is called "Seven Peaks" by the local people.

Its peaks are also high, and its roads are steep. There are valleys that are connected like knives and axes, with peaks on the left and right, and the near-vertical angles make the sides almost impossible to climb. There is only one passage out of the valley, but the crossing is not wide, and four carriages side by side are already its limit, that is, no one more can cross.

However, this valley is the only way for the Qin army to go south.

The number of people does not need to be too many, as long as there are thousands of people, and it is difficult to get out of the exit even if there are thousands of troops. Therefore, Zhao Wei handed over this relatively easy defense to the generals who hurried back, after all, after a long journey, the combat power was bound to be lost.

At the front end of the Qifeng Pass, the mountain suddenly slowed down, although it was still endless, but there was no steep trend, and the 30,000 elite Zhao troops led by Zhao Wei were hidden in the rolling mountains.

Soon, the soldiers of Zhao here had just recovered from their dreams, and the advance of the Qin army had already arrived less than a mile away, and there was even a faint sound of the Qin army's sonorous hooves in the slight wind.

As a result, the mountains became quieter and quieter, and even the croaking of frogs and cicadas disappeared.

If Yingyi is more careful, he may be able to detect the abnormality in the mountain road, after all, the only possibility for the frogs and cicadas to disappear collectively is the existence of an ambush.

It's a pity that Yingyi didn't notice it.

Not only because the sound of clattering horses' hooves filled his ears, but also because the flames of revenge had filled his mind - rushing to the scene as soon as possible and defeating Zhao Jun who dared to attack was the only thought in Yingyi's heart at this time.

"The whole army accelerates! Swift through the valley road! Yingyi urged the war horse under his crotch and ordered the army.

Although Yingyi was anxious and couldn't fly to the eastern battlefield immediately, the general's basic literacy was not lost, and in the face of the valley road that was unfavorable to him, he at least knew to speed up.

However, this also exposed the contempt for Zhao Jun in Yingyi's heart - knowing that it was easy to be ambushed in the valley road, he did not send scouts to investigate in advance, and second, he refused to change the route, but only accelerated the valley road according to the order contained in the military book. As everyone knows, the intersection of Qifeng Mountain in front of him is blocked, and no matter how fast he is, he can't rush through.

Even, because of the excessively fast marching speed, it was inevitable that the queue of the Qin army became dense, and the rear army also entered the ambush circle of the Zhao army faster.

If Zhao Kuo is here, he will definitely take the opportunity to crown the name of "talking on paper" on the head of the winner.

Of course, in fact, there was nothing inherently wrong with Yingyi's order to speed up the passage, after all, leaving the valley road a moment earlier would be out of danger a little earlier. Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Ying Yi can't give this order, can the 15,000 horsemen under his command escape this tragedy?

Apparently not. From the moment Yingyi hurriedly led the troops out, a tragedy was already doomed.

The valley road is very long, stretching for more than a mile, and between the twists and turns, it is enough to load all the long marching troops of Yingyi's department.

Yingyi, who took the lead, looked at the towering mountain peaks not far ahead, and his heart suddenly throbbed, such a steep terrain, if Zhao Jun blocked it in front, then ......

Yingyi didn't dare to think about it, shook her head and buried the fear deep in her heart, and comforted herself: Turn the bend in front and go out, it's okay, Zhao Jun is far away in the east battlefield, where will he come to this north road, and besides, this is only a little more than two hours away from the camp, if it is......

Yingyi, who was comforting herself, had quickly turned the last detour.

I don't know when, the dark clouds overhead have been quietly removed, and the cold white moonlight instantly sprinkled all over the earth......
