88. Attack! Obscure!
Zhao Kuo's demolition of Gaoping Pass is actually very dangerous.
If in the process of destroying the city wall, the Qin army of Duanshi City took the opportunity to attack, it would be difficult to defend.
However, more than 300,000 surrendered Qin troops who were put back were stuck in the middle of the road, hungry and cold, and the road was blocked.
Don't say march.
The guards of Duan's city were worried that the Zhao army would come at the end, so they directly closed the city gate, ignoring the robes and begging for food outside the gate, and even planned to sit back and watch these Qin soldiers starve to death.
If it weren't for the arrival of the Win Yiren who had just asked for troops to send troops to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and forcibly looted the grain and grass in the treasury of the Eastern Zhou Mansion, these Qin troops who were put back would have starved to death many people.
Win Yiren had the intention to kill the guard general Liwei and win the hearts of the army, but because the guard did not violate the Qin law, he had no way to start.
When Yiren escaped, his wife and son were hidden in Handan.
He went to Xianyang alone and worshiped Mrs. Huayang as his stepmother, and his identity was immediately different.
Coming with him was the last backbone of the Qin army, Meng Fu, who looked at the soldiers who were already yellow and thin, and were as thin as firewood, and felt distressed.
These soldiers, after experiencing hunger and cold, and corpses and bones, will wake up from their dreams in this life, as soon as they hear Zhao Kuo's name.
Trembling all over.
Of the more than 300,000 surrendered troops, only a little over 200,000 returned to Duanshi City alive.
The whole road was littered with decomposing or decomposing corpses.
But not a single wild dog gnawed on a carcass.
Because as soon as there are wild dogs, then there will be a group of hungry people with green eyes rushing to pounce on them and eat them alive.
None of the hairs will be left.
"Order the whole army, attack Gaoping, and all the glory lost by our army must be recovered!" Meng Fu looked angry.
"General Meng, don't be impulsive." Ying Yiren shouted.
At this time, he attacked, and he just caught Zhao Kuo off guard. Don't seek to occupy the city, but only to gain something. This breath is not out, my old Qin should not think about fighting again in ten years. ”
Meng Fu only brought 50,000 cavalry of the Qin army, and although he got a lot of grain and grass from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, he was overstretched if he still had to support these soldiers.
Bai Qi's failure due to lack of food is just around the corner.
The state of Qin was already in a famine, and logistics could not keep up. Meng Fu only hated himself for not making up his mind earlier when Yingyiren persuaded him to admonish the King of Qin together, and was a little hesitant about attacking the Eastern Zhou.
knew this earlier, before attacking Changping, he directly destroyed the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and took away their grain and grass, regardless of his righteousness in the Zhou Dynasty.
He Ji Yan, can have several divisions.
The Saturday Division has long been history.
In that case, Wu Anjun would not be forced to die because of lack of food.
Swallowing anger is not the true color of the old Qin people.
A tooth for a tooth is the style of Lao Qin.
Ignoring the dissuasion of Wang Jian and others, who had escaped by luck, Meng Fu led 50,000 Qin troops with Yang Duanhe and Mengwu, who were also holding their breath, and went straight to Gaoping Pass.
At this time, the Wei army was in full swing to carry out the demolition, reconstruction and reconstruction of the old city of Gaopingguan.
The location of Gaoping Pass is too important, reaching Youyan in the north, Yiluo in the south, and Hedong in the west, "according to the spine of the world, when the throat of Heshuo", it is the traffic throat and military key point of the Shangdang area, and it is an important node connecting Changping and Duanshi City and Yewang City.
No one will ignore the existence of this level.
After the fire at Gaoping Pass and the drumming of the hanging sheep a few nights ago, Xin Lingjun realized that the Zhao army should really plan to exchange the city for food, and then continue to pursue and kill the Qin army.
Those arrangements were for fear that the Wei army would once again play behind his back.
However, it is not ruled out that the Zhao army is ambushed not far away, ready to kill the horse pistol.
Therefore, when many people and soldiers went to Gaoping Pass to carry out reconstruction work, Xinlingjun laid countless crossbowmen and heavy infantry next to the broken walls of Gaoping Pass.
Outside Gaoping Pass, the Wei rangers who had changed into new war horses were also scattered by Xinling Jun all over Gaoping Pass, repeatedly reconnoitring.
"Wolf smoke! There is wolf smoke! ”
Wei Jun, who was standing on a high place, saw the black smoke rising in the distance and shouted anxiously.
"Quick! Fast! Fast! Defend in place, shield up, and get ready to draw your bow! ”
Xin Lingjun shouted anxiously, although the night attack of Zhao Jun before was proved to be just harassment, but who dares to guarantee that this time, Zhao Kuo is not real.
On the night when the Zhao army pretended to be a night attack, nearly half of the arrows in the Wei army's inventory were shot, although the follow-up arrows could be picked up and remade, but after all, the inventory was consumed a lot.
Credible Lingjun ordered that this time he still had to go all out, and he must not save arrows!
It is said that Duweicheng was repeatedly harassed by Zhao Kuo, and the final word was made.
Xin Lingjun will never allow himself to become Zhao Kuo's record.
The sharp arrows shimmered with a dangerous sheen.
"Cavalry, lots of cavalry." Several Wei sentinels were approaching on horseback.
Although the horses given by Zhao Jun consume more food than ordinary war horses, so they have a strong ability to sprint short distances, but their durability is relatively poor, and they slow down when they can't run much.
The horses are as if they were carefully selected.
Therefore, when the Wei army's sentry cavalry arrived, Xinlingjun could already hear the thunderous sound of horses' hooves on the road in the distance.
"Pull the strings!" Xinlingjun waved his big hand, Jin Wei waved the command flag, and the herald gave orders loudly.
Wrong.
Why is it that the army who came here wore black uniforms?
And they are all the standard armor of the Qin army.
Jin Contempt looked hesitant, looking at the cavalry in the distance, and the command flag in his hand did not dare to fall for a long time. He had long been scared by the Qin army.
"What are you waiting for!" Xinlingjun roared, and Zhu Hai, who was behind him, put his hand into his arms again and held the forty catties of iron.
"Didn't a few Qin soldiers who fled to us say that Zhao Kuo let people wear the clothes and armor of the Qin army and sneak attack Gaoping Pass! He's sure he's going to do it again! I, Wei Wuji, will never do the second white rise. Hurry up and release the arrows! ”
In the cavalry group in the distance, Meng Fu looked puzzled.
From a distance, the city wall of Gaopingguan has collapsed by half, and the city gate is gone.
Moreover, how do those soldiers guarding the pass look like Wei troops? Could it be Zhao Kuo's suspicious plan again?
Meng Fu originally planned to go to Gaoping Pass and directly try to attack to see if he could gain something, but now he had to send someone to investigate.
It's just that Meng Fu also had a surprise idea of fighting the Zhao army this time, so at the beginning of the full-speed cavalry assault, the army formation was very long, and after the Chinese army slowed down, the front army received the order relatively late.
Therefore, the front army of the Qin army, before reaching Gaoping Pass, had a slight tendency to slow down.
Unlike the infantry, when the cavalry of the brigade was marching, it was difficult for the horses to do the order, and if they wanted to slow down or stop, they needed a lot of space, so some of the Qin troops did not even deliberately slow down, wanting to make room for a buffer for the robe.
They felt that the Qin army and the Wei army were currently in an ambiguous state, and the Wei army not only borrowed grain and roads to the Qin army, but also sent troops to cut off Zhao Kuo's back route.
If it weren't for Bai Qi's lack of food, now that Qin and Wei are working together, they would have solved Zhao Jun a long time ago.
The Wei army will not attack itself, otherwise it will be a war.
Moreover, he also had a messenger to inquire, and General Meng Fu also slowed himself down. This will definitely not be a fight.
So they weren't so vigilant that some didn't even raise their shields!
"I want to pretend to be Qin Jun to tempt me! I want to pretend to be an ally and sneak close to me! Do you think I, Wei Wuji, am a fool? Xinlingjun snatched the command flag of Jin Contempt and waved it down vigorously.
Suddenly, arrows rained down!
Xinlingjun's face is like iron.
Even if it comes, it's the real Qin Army, so what!
All for the sake of Wei.
