That's right, Zhao Kuo is ready to run.

Just when the spies reported: the first Qin army in the north suddenly headed to the east, and the first Qin army in the west suddenly headed south.

If you don't moisten it at this time, you really can't moisten it!

Even if you think about it with your heels, you know what the Qin army that suddenly went east in the north and the Qin army that suddenly went south in the west were going to do.

What are you going to do? What can you do, naturally you will besiege the Wei army and go. And there is only one possibility that the Qin army, which has stopped all night, has such a sudden action - the army of the fortress and the light wolf city and the Jiepai Ridge has already arrived or is about to reach the flank of the Wei army.

Then the question becomes, is it the Wei army and our Zhao army that will attack the Qin army first, or will the Wei army or their own Zhao army be unable to withstand the pressure and be broken by the Qin army?

The answer to this question also seems self-evident.

Let's talk about his side first, although the nail position is still there, but his own strength has shrunk in his eyes, and the 20,000 troops who went out to the Light Wolf City, all the positions, light and serious wounded are added together, Zhao Kuo can't even make up 60,000 capable troops, and almost all of them are wounded and exhausted.

With such a shortage of troops, such a dangerous combat force, and the siege of hundreds of thousands of troops of the Qin army on all sides, it is a miracle that it has been able to hold on until now. As for how long it can last, Zhao Kuo really doesn't know. Even, if it weren't for the timely arrival of the Wei army yesterday, the Qin army might have appeared outside his camp gate at this time.

I'm talking about the Wei army's side. Although Zhao Kuo did not know the characteristics of the Wei army's strength and weakness, judging from previous examples, whether it was the Battle of Yique or the Battle of Huayang, it all showed that the Wei army with the same strength saw that the Qin army had almost no strength to fight.

After a little calculation of the strength of the Qin army, it is not difficult to find that Bai Qi almost mobilized hundreds of thousands of Qin troops to attack the Wei army, so how many troops did the Wei army have? Zhao Kuo had calculated before Lian Po set off, the 100,000 Wei army that came to aid was the bottom line, but 150,000 may be the limit of my Wei army.

In this way, once the Qin army arrived, the defeat of the Wei army was almost inevitable.

Then the only question is how many Qin troops the Wei army can kill and injure, and how long it can hold out!

Zhao Kuo folded his fingers and slowly calculated the account, since the beginning of the war, he has been superior and inferior, but in the end, he also used the lives of more than 200,000 Zhao troops under his command to knock down more than 200,000 troops of the Qin army, and the battle loss ratio was almost one to one;

In yesterday's battle, the Wei army raided the Qin army, and his side also launched a counterattack against the Qin army, and the effect was not bad, plus a night of fierce battle, the losses of the Qin army may be tens of thousands.

In today's battle, there is Lian Po, no matter how weak the Wei army is, it should be able to tear off a piece of flesh and blood from the Qin army, not more, thirty or fifty thousand is enough.

In this way, the total number of Qin troops in Shangdang will probably not exceed 150,000, and his own troops in the periphery alone will be nearly 120,000

Even if the soldiers and horses that broke through on their side could not be put into battle for the time being, with 120,000 troops occupying a favorable position outside, and the Qin army was in danger of combat strength, lacking food and weapons, coupled with the reduced morale caused by the cut off of food and grass, it was not too difficult to break through the encirclement with only 150,000 troops!

In other words, the meaning of the Zhao army's current stubborn defense - to stabilize the Wei army, has disappeared as the Qin army launched a siege and annihilation war against the Wei army. Although if the Zhao army stayed and continued to cooperate with the Wei army, it would be possible to destroy more Qin troops, but after the arrival of the peripheral army, all this was no longer necessary.

Even, the existence of Zhao Kuo has become the only turning point for the Qin army.

So, take advantage of the Qin and Wei wars! Hurry up and run, that's what Zhao Kuo has to do.

Run must be run, but you can't run to Africa! Where to run from and where to run is particularly critical and important.

"Herald: Shrink the whole army, all the way north!" Zhao Kuo put on his armor with the help of his own soldiers, and ordered Sun Gu beside him.

Northward! That's right, even to the north, and only to the north!

To the east and south, although there is an attack by the Wei army, Zhao Kuo does not think that the remaining soldiers and horses can break through the front line of the Qin army, otherwise he will not have to run, not to mention, even if he is lucky enough to chisel through the Qin army and join the Wei army, there is still the Qin army on the outside, Zhao Kuo does not think that the coalition army will be divided

After that, it can burst out with one plus one greater than two. There is a high probability that the trip will be delayed due to inconsistent opinions, and will eventually be broken by the Qin army.

The east and south are sent first, so how to choose between the west and the north?

In terms of distance, it is obviously the closest to move west in the direction of Light Wolf City, and there are only 20,000 elite soldiers in Light Wolf City, although the 60,000 troops under Zhao Kuo are broken, but if they are repaired, they are also combat power. Moreover, there was a hoarding of Qin army's ordnance, grain and grass in the Light Wolf City, and the Zhao army was able to get enough replenishment as soon as possible.

But it was precisely because of the importance of Light Wolf City that Zhao Kuo had to give up the idea of breaking through from this side.

Knowing that the Light Wolf City behind him is an empty city, and he is still hoarding his own grain and grass, can Bai Qi still let you break through to the past? Don't even think about it, even if you fight all the soldiers, or even transfer back to the south, you will be prevented from going to the Light Wolf City!

As a result, only the north side remained.

Coincidentally, in the north, where the army was originally at its peak, in the repeated draws, there were only 20,000 troops left, which was the least troop among the four sides.

If you want to surround the Zhao army and avoid being "surrounded by the Zhao army", you must try to average the combat power on all sides, so that the Zhao army has nowhere to eat; With the arrival of the Wei army, Bai Qi had to concentrate the main force to the southeast where the Wei army was located.

As mentioned above, there is the Light Wolf City behind the west, and Bai Qi has to guard against it, so he retains more than 10,000 troops in the west, and it is only an extra 10,000 troops, which can be seen from the overstretched strength of the Qin army. The sequelae of fighting with Zhao Jun to defeat hundreds of thousands of troops were slowly revealed.

Of course, the encirclement and suppression of the Wei army over there, and the possible breakthrough of the Zhao army here, Bai Qi will naturally not be without measures. It's just that the only thing he can do because of the lack of troops is to order the army under his command to stick up, fight with the Zhao army thoroughly, and not give the Zhao army a chance to assemble and break through.

The reason why Zhao Wei was able to exploit the loophole last night was because the Qin army contracted the defense line and the whole army repaired.

However, the Qin army in the north is still too small after all, and in the current battle situation, it seems that Zhao Kuo no longer needs to make that dangerous trick of hiding the sky and crossing the sea.

Since you can't hide it, you just don't hide it!

Showing the carriage and horses, it is a hard power!
