Chapter 723: The mourning soldiers will win and attack the Qin army

On the road of life, there will always be many ups and downs and hardships.

It's just that some people will sink in this bumpy road, and some people will struggle out of the hardships.

But obviously, heaven and earth are unkind, and they will not change their established rules because of anyone or anything.

So, even though last night there was still a roar of wind accompanied by lightning and thunder, but today, the sun is still rising high.

The sound of whimpering horns also resounded in the sky and earth with the sun, and tens of thousands of Qin troops finished arranging, still stepping on the neat drum beat, and launched an attack on Xinzheng City.

It's just that today's Xinzheng City looks a little weird.

The whimpering trumpets and drums did not sound as promised, and there were not even many busy figures on the towers.

"Could it be that the Zhao army has abandoned the city?" Wang Di, who was standing in the Chinese army and observing the movements of the Zhao army, couldn't help but guess in his heart: It's impossible, the most difficult first three days have passed peacefully, and Zhao Jun has no reason to give up now.

What's more, now that he retreats, he can pursue it in an instant, and the losses of the Zhao army will probably be even greater.

But if you don't give up, in the face of your own attack, how can the city tower be so quiet?

Thinking about it, Wang Di never figured it out, and couldn't help but have a slight bad premonition in Wang Di's heart.

But no matter what, Wang Di still did not order a retreat, and at this point in the battle, no matter what Zhao Jun had to do, he would only have to accompany him. It's nothing more than a move.

The Zhao army in the city did not let Wang Ji wait for a long time.

Just as the Qin army was about to approach three hundred steps outside the city tower and began to gradually accelerate, a whimpering horn suddenly sounded in the city.

Immediately afterward, the huge city gate was suddenly opened.

is waiting for the Qin army

When he was surprised and inexplicable, a dense rain of arrows stopped the Qin army's footsteps to rush to the city gate.

At the same time, a white dragon burst out of the gate.

When I looked closely, it was a filial piety suit draped on the body of the cavalry of the Zhao army.

Led by Li Mu, who held a broadsword and took the lead, and the surviving cavalry team under General Lian Po. After that, tens of thousands of Zhao army foot soldiers also followed closely with their blades.

In the sound of whimpering horns, the sound of "avenging the old general" resounded in the heavens and the earth.

In the blink of an eye, the mighty cavalry of the Zhao army had already rushed in front of the Qin army's military array.

The collision of black and white instantly burst out with countless red blood flowers.

The blood sprinkling in the sky only inspired Zhao Jun's ferocity more and more!

All the Zhao soldiers were almost crazy, and all of them rushed towards the Qin army's onslaught without fear of death.

For a while, it was really impossible to tell who was on the offensive side and who was on the defensive side.

Yes, Li Mu took the initiative to rush out of Xinzheng City, which had complete fortifications, with tens of thousands of Zhao troops, and went straight to the array of the Qin army.

This is of course chaotic in the art of war, after all, it is a fool to give up the defender who has a huge advantage and instead attack the strong force with weak forces.

Huge losses, almost predictable. Even if the control is not good, it is not impossible for the entire Xinzheng City to be taken by the Qin army.

However, it is such a stupid thing, a thing with huge risks, but it is very necessary for Zhao Jun today.

The reason is very simple, the death of the old general has a real impact on Zhao Jun

It's too big, especially since the old general is still under siege in order to cover the more than 30,000 foot soldiers.

Not to mention anything else, just these 30,000 people, the depression in their hearts can be imagined.

Since there is a frustration, the best way is to let them vent.

And if you want to vent the frustration in your heart, it is impossible to defend with grievances, and only by taking the initiative to attack and fighting with the Qin army heartily can it be alleviated.

Compared with the morale of the entire army, a small loss of troops is somewhat insignificant.

The most critical thing, of course, is Lee

Mu should ensure that this will not lead to the loss of Xinzheng City.

Li Mu is obviously very sure of this.

Without him, the four words "mourning soldiers will win"!

Not to mention that the suddenness of the Zhao army's counterattack at this time was enough to grasp a certain initiative, just the formation that Li Mu discharged was enough to eat the Qin army.

Li Mu personally led the team, with the cavalry once led by General Lian Po as the lead, and the 30,000 foot soldiers covered by General Lian Po as the main force, launched an attack on the Qin army.

You must know that these more than 30,000 people owe General Lian Po a life.

After going to the battlefield, you have to fight to the death!

No matter how elite the Qin army is, under this kind of death-seeking attack, it can only be deflated.

Sure enough, the facts were not much different from what Li Mu expected.

The cavalry he brought with him, almost in a single face, had already rushed out of the Qin army's first-line formation several openings.

And the arrival of more than 30,000 troops in the follow-up was like a hammer smashing into the chest of the Qin army.

The Qin army, which had received heavy losses, unconsciously stopped advancing.

Of course, to contain Qin

The army's offensive was only the first step, and letting the Qin army retreat was the key to the battle.

It's a pity that the army with tenacious perseverance has never been the only one in the Zhao army.

Obviously, I am the attacker, you still dare to go out of the city to face the battle, no one will be happy if you change it! Especially the Qin army, which has high morale and looks down on the world.

Therefore, in the face of the ferocious attack of the Zhao army, the Qin army not only did not flinch in the slightest, but instead aroused the bloody nature of the Qin army. As a result, the slogan of "Old Qin, go to the national disaster together" sounded again, and pieces of Qin troops shouted slogans and fearlessly rushed towards Zhao Jun.

On the one hand, Yan Zhao Nan'er, who sacrificed his life for the sake of the old general, and on the other hand, the old Qin people in the Guanzhong who went to the national disaster together, for a while, the two armies were actually scorched outside Xinzheng City.

Of course, as time passed, the balance of war inevitably began to tilt slightly in favor of the vegetarian Zhao army.

"The mourning soldiers will win", that is not just talk.

Standing in the Chinese army, looking at the battle situation in front of him, Wang Di's brows couldn't help frowning.

If it weren't for Zhao Jun's simplicity, Wang Yi would definitely be glad that Zhao Jun actually didn't defend the city, but went out of the city to fight.

With the advantage of this force, Wang Yi just gave the Zhao army a hard blow, even if he could not take Xinzheng in one fell swoop, it was bound to cause heavy losses to the Zhao army, and also laid the foundation for the subsequent attack.

It's just that this body is so dazzling under the sun.

Of course, he knew that there was only one reason why he could make the whole army of Zhao Jun Su: General Lian Po was seriously injured and died.

It stands to reason that this would be an excellent opportunity to attack, taking advantage of the chaos within the Zhao army.

But apparently, to replace General Lian Po

The man also knew this very well, and even gave Wang Yi a plan to turn grief into strength.

Under the attack of the Zhao army's mourning soldiers, it was obvious that the Qin army would not be an opponent.

Even if he had a certain advantage in troops, according to Wang Ji's observations, the Zhao army in the city had at least 150,000 or 60,000 people.

However, in order to take advantage of Lian Po's serious injury to attack Xinzheng, he did not wait for the follow-up 50,000 troops, so he hurried north with 200,000 troops.

In other words, the advantage of one's own strength is only forty or fifty thousand at most. Under the offensive of the Zhao army, the advantage of forty or fifty thousand troops is obviously not enough.

For a while, in the face of Lian Po's sudden departure, Wang Di didn't even know whether to be happy or sad.

The only thing Wang Ji knows is that he can't fight hard with this group of already crazy Zhao Jun now.

If they continue to fight hard, the two armies will inevitably enter the final decisive battle directly, and in the face of the Zhao army, which has a morale bonus, the Qin army is obviously out of a disadvantageous position.

The best I can see is a lose-lose situation.

Once the main army of his own front is seriously lost, there will be no need for the follow-up partial division to exist at all.

Faced with such a situation, Wang Yi also made a decision instantly: "Order: Mingjin withdraws his troops."

Immediately, with Wang Di's order, there were bursts of ringing gold in the Qin army's formation.

The Qin troops on the front line also immediately covered each other and evacuated to the Chinese army alternately.

Li Mu, who had already taken advantage of a lot, did not order the pursuit, obviously, he did not want to share the victory or defeat with the Qin army in Xinzheng.

The reason is very simple, although the Zhao army in the grievance is strong, in fact, it is like this

The strength of the can't last long.

Especially in the clash of hundreds of thousands of troops, there is no time for a few days to tell the winner at all.

And with the passage of time, the effect of mourning will also show a cliff-like decline. At that time, the problem of insufficient troops of the Zhao army will become the handle of the Qin army.

The biggest possibility is that the Zhao army won first and then lost, and after each side lost a large number of troops, they each retreated to their original positions.

Of course, this was not the result that Qin Jun wanted, but it was also not the result that Li Mu and Zhao Guo wanted.

You must know that for this decisive battle, Zhao Kuo even mobilized the Hu people of Jiuyuan County, and the entire Zhao State also paid a huge price for this battle.

If Li Mu changed this battle from a national decisive battle to a local battle, and it was the result of losing both, this would undoubtedly be a defeat for Zhao State.

Naturally, after taking advantage of a certain advantage, the Qin army took the initiative to evacuate, which would be the result that Li Mu wanted to see the most.

Of course, if Zhao Wei and his heavy cavalry were here, Li Mu's decision would have changed. The reason is also very simple, because the destructive power of the heavy cavalry is too strong, as long as the heavy cavalry participates, Li Mu can shorten the battle of several days to one or two days.

And in a day or two, Zhao Jun, with the blessing of the "mourning soldiers", almost had an absolute advantage over the Qin army.

If he can directly defeat the main force of the Qin army, and his own losses are not too great, Li Mu is of course willing to do such a deal.

It's a pity that although the heavy cavalry has always been in Handan, Zhao Kuo did not let Zhao Wei accompany him this time.

But no matter what, looking at the Qin army that had gradually withdrawn its troops and returned to the camp

, Zhao Jun behind Li Mu also let out bursts of shouts, the kind from the bottom of his heart.

Obviously, Li Mu's tactical goal has been achieved.
