Zhao Kuo, who was sitting at the head of the city, tried to contain the excitement in his heart.

The so-called "half ninety for those who travel a hundred miles", the more Zhao Kuo knows that he needs to calm down at this critical juncture. A slight accident may cause Li Mu's plan to fall short.

It's better to be still than to be still.

To be honest, Zhao Kuo, who is in the city of Yanhe, can not do much.

No matter how the Yan army chosen, Zhao Kuo could only deal with it passively, no matter how the pursuit battle in Handan County developed, Zhao Kuo could only watch quietly from a distance.

Even, Zhao Kuo couldn't even tell others what he was thinking.

"Things are made in secret, and words are defeated." doesn't need to be reminded by others, Zhao Kuo in his previous life has suffered too many losses. Even his henchmen Zhao Ping and Sun Gu and others, Zhao Kuo couldn't say it clearly.

Even for what Li Mu is about to do, Zhao Kuo must remain in a state of ignorance.

Without him, as the future King of Zhao, Zhao Kuo must let his body radiate a sun-like light, and because of this, any bit of stain will be ruthlessly magnified. What's more, it is such a filth as being a bureau murderer, which a successor will never allow himself to be contaminated. 33

No matter what, Zhao Kuo could only wait quietly for things to develop.

This wait, another night passed quietly. Between the stars and the stars, the morning sun has shone on the earth.

Suddenly, Zhao Kuo seemed to see that the Yan army camp was restless, and there seemed to be signs of pulling out the camp?

Pull out the camp?

Offensive?

No way! Is the commander of the Yan army so rigid? It's just been a bloody battle, and it's going to make a comeback? Zhao Kuo was a little unconvinced.

But it has to be said that if the main general of the Yan army is smart enough and bold enough, he should indeed launch another round of attacks on Yan and the city before leaving.

Whether it's to block the pursuit, or as the last fight of the Yan army, you should do it. At least if Zhao Kuo himself is the main general opposite, he will definitely launch another round of attacks.

Without hesitation, Zhao Kuo immediately stood up and ordered: "Scouts go out of the city, find out the movements of the Yan army, and prepare for battle." ”

"Yes." The soldiers around him immediately replied.

Immediately, the drums in the city sounded, and the soldiers who had rested all night rushed to the city tower, ready to meet the Yan army's charge.

Under the city tower, the two side doors quietly opened, and more than a dozen cavalry rushed out of the city gate at the fastest speed in an instant, and then divided into left and right roads, and hurried towards the direction of the Yan army.

At the same time, after the castle tower, the young men continued to transport the rolling wood and stones to the castle tower.

And the artillery battalion is also putting the finishing touches on the catapult.

Obviously, with Zhao Kuo's order, the entire city immediately turned into a fried hedgehog, which was bound to pierce a few thorns at the Yan army who dared to attack.

It's a pity that the Yan army didn't think about continuing the offensive at all.

Last night, General Li Bi's words had been analyzed very thoroughly, of course, in fact, these were just excuses. The most important thing is that in Qing Qin's heart, there is no desire to win. To be precise, Qing Qin didn't think that he would be Zhao Kuo's opponent, even if Zhao Kuo only had a few thousand soldiers and horses in his hands.

There is no way, his spirit has been cut down by Zhao Kuo under the city.

Listening to the sound of drums in the city from afar, Yan Jun's movements became faster and faster.

In just a quarter of an hour, the first thousand-man team had already left the gate and headed south, followed by the second and third......

"You wait for the two, and quickly report back to the general: the whole Yan army retreats south. From here, I continue to monitor the movements of the Yan army. Seeing this, the scout commander immediately said to the two people beside him.

"Yes." The other two scouts immediately agreed.

Immediately, the clattering hooves of the horses galloped again in the direction of the city and the city.

However, after the tea, the scout was brought to Zhao Kuo.

"General Yushang: The whole Yan army retreats." The scout immediately reported to Zhao Kuo.

"Oh?" Zhao Kuo stood up with some surprise.

It was no wonder that Zhao Kuo was so surprised, because Zhao Kuo knew very well in his heart that once the Yan army retreated, not only would the siege of Yan and the city be solved, but Li Mu's plan would also become more feasible and realistic. It can be said that the sooner Yan and the Yan army outside the city retreat south, Li Mu's plan will be seamless.

"General." Sun Gu on the side was also surprised: "Is our army chasing after you?" ”

Obviously, although Sun Gu roughly knew the current situation in Handan County from Zhao Kuo's description, he didn't know Li Mu's plan, so he didn't know that what Zhao Kuo and Li Mu wanted most now was for the Yan army on the opposite side to go south as soon as possible.

In Sun Gu's thoughts, sending a force to delay the retreat of the Yan army, waiting for Zhou Qi's army to arrive, and then attacking the Yan army would be the best choice to inflict heavy losses on the Yan army.

And Zhao Ping on the side immediately showed the same expectant expression.

Zhao Kuo looked at the two of them, but said with a faint smile: "Look at the Yan army camp, it has long exceeded the maximum attack distance of our catapults, that is to say, if we want to attack the Yan army, we can only rely on our cavalry and foot soldiers." However, in the whole city, the troops were already insufficient, and almost everyone was wounded.

There are only a thousand people who can take out their hands and go out of the city to fight, and these more than a thousand people can't play any role in delay in front of the tens of thousands of Yan troops, but they lose their lives in vain.

Moreover, what if this Yan army is pretending to retreat, but in fact it is for attacking? ”

"Yes." Sun Gu also lowered his head in shame when he heard this, it seemed that he was still so happy, and he didn't take into account the already crumbling city defense at all, it really shouldn't be.

"There's no need to pursue." Zhao Kuo continued: "Send more cavalry scouts to monitor the Yan army along the way, and beware of the Yan army turning back to attack. After the Yan army retreated ten miles, raise the red flag to report! ”

"Yes." Sun Gu immediately agreed.

Immediately, under the city tower, the two small doors opened again, and dozens of elite cavalry rushed out of it and rushed away in the direction of the Yan army.

Above the city tower, the soldiers of the Zhao army who got the news also held the swords and spears in their hands tightly, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the road in front of the city and the military camp of the Yan army in the distance, looking forward to the red flag that symbolized victory and appeared under the city tower earlier.

Waiting, no matter who it is, is an ordeal.

Fortunately, the Yan army, which was eager to flee south, did not let the soldiers of the Zhao army in the city wait for a long time. But half an hour later, a bright red flag as blood, facing the sun, accompanied by the north, slowly danced in the direction of the city and the city!

"Won?" The soldier of the Zhao army asked with some hesitation!

"Won!" Another soldier of the Zhao Army replied affirmatively.

The city tower, which was still holding its breath and concentrating, instantly fell into a sea of cheers and joy......

Some people died, but not completely......
