Chapter 27: Cleaning up the battlefield, the elder of the Haoran Sect arrived

"Who is it?"

On the battlefield, Lu Zonghui stood in front of a headless corpse, and he jumped like thunder.

He turned his head and swept the remnants around him one by one, his eyes seemed to be about to devour people alive, he gritted his teeth and said, "Which of you saw it, who killed Zhu Senjun?" ”

The old departments around him drooped their heads one by one, and no one answered.

Lu Zonghui grabbed the nearest soldier beside him and roared angrily: "Tell me, who is it?" ”

The soldier's face turned pale, and he panicked: "I don't know, the little one doesn't know......"

"What a fucking shit!"

Syllable!

Lu Zonghui slapped him.

This soldier was already injured, how could he withstand such a slap from the innate martial artist.

He passed out directly, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Lu Zonghui discarded this ordinary soldier like garbage.

The soldiers present were all silent.

Lu Zonghui looked around at everyone, and couldn't help but burn in anger.

Zhu Wei was one of his few confidants in the Eastern Army, assisting him in handling paperwork and giving him advice.

Now that he is dead like this, how can he not be angry?

"General, Zhu Senjun's death must have been done by King Wu's subordinates, and it has nothing to do with us?"

Lu Zonghui scolded: "Do I want you to say this nonsense?" ”

When he left, Zhu Wei was still alive, and by that time the Zhao army had already begun to withdraw.

It can't be Zhao Jun's hand, who killed Zhu Wei is obvious.

Not far away, Wei Wushu began to retreat at a fixed pace, in an orderly manner.

Lu Zonghui's face turned pale.

This time, the 10,000 army he brought, after such a toss, only 4,000 remained.

More than half of the losses were lost.

Most of them are thanks to this army.

After Juwei was injured, they also took his head away in the chaos.

"Wu Qi, it's very good." Lu Zonghui sneered: "Today, my skills are not as good as others, and I will suffer a loss from you." ”

"If you're so good, then you have to perform well in the rest of the battle."

This time, he promised the Martial King Zhao Hongming that it was just an expedient measure, and he had no sincere intention to fight against Zhao Jun with him at all.

Now that King Wu has such a strong team, he has a lot of confidence.

If you want to force him head-on, it will be impossible to give up the interests of Ying County.

Then there is only other way.

Zhao Jun is a force that can be borrowed.

If you do it well, if you fall out with Wei in the future, you can also leave yourself a way back.

On the other side of the battlefield.

Zhao Hongming stepped forward and stared at Zhu Wei's head.

He remembered that Wu Qi should not know Zhu Wei of the Eastern Army.

There are so many corpses and so many heads on the battlefield, but only one Zhu Wei in the Eastern Army is bringing, which is obviously intentional by Wu Qi.

Zhao Hongming was not a dull person, and couldn't help but look at Gao Yanshi.

The latter kept his head down, his hands in his sleeves, his eyes fixed on the ground, and remained silent.

Seeing him like this, the corners of Zhao Hongming's mouth rose slightly, and he had already guessed a rough idea in his heart.

Not long ago, this person was still making a lot of nonsense in front of him, but he didn't expect to die in Huangquan so soon, it is really impermanent.

Wu Qi saw that Zhao Hongming was silent, and hurriedly knelt down: "Your Highness forgives your sins and causes trouble for Your Highness." ”

"Hahaha, what is General Wu's crime?" Zhao Hongming stepped forward to help him up: "It's just a local officer, kill it." ”

Wu Qi comprehended: "Your Highness Xie." ”

Zhao Hongming took two steps forward, and as far as the eye could see, the battlefield was chaotic, with blood and corpses everywhere.

And not far from him, five hundred chariots were gathered together.

More than half of them are still intact, and they can be used on the battlefield after training.

It is the biggest gain of his battle.

Zhao Hongming said: "Next, what is General Wu going to do?" ”

"Take advantage of the victory and pursue it."

After leading 30,000 Wei Wushu to defeat Zhao's 180,000 army, he now has a good idea of Wei's overall strength.

Wu Qi clasped his fists and replied: "Hexi City is a lonely city, and it is difficult to hold on. Now after the defeat of the Zhao army, the people's hearts are fluctuating, and it is even more difficult to hold Hexi City, so after our army is repaired, we can attack Hexi and expel the remaining Zhao soldiers. ”

Zhao Hongming glanced at Wu Qi and said, "Is General Wu's goal in this battle only so little?" ”

Wu Qi raised his head, his eyes flashed and said, "What does Your Highness think?" ”

Zhao Hongming said another thing: "General Wu, you don't need to say it from this king, you also know that the military merit system implemented by Wei Wu has a big drawback. ”

This military merit system was formulated with his participation, and Wu Qi naturally knew the drawbacks behind it, but he still bowed and said, "Your Highness, please give advice." ”

"After this battle, Wei Wushu has already tasted the deliciousness of war, and there will be an invisible force that will continue to force you to go to war." Zhao Hongming opened his lips and said: "That is to say, once this law is implemented, it will never stop, even if you want to be content with the status quo, it is a sin." ”

Hearing this, Wu Qi was silent.

There is no law in the world that is perfect and without drawbacks, but it is the lesser of two.

The military merit system achieved by Wei Wushu can improve the combat effectiveness of the army in a very short period of time, but the sequelae are also as Zhao Hongming said.

There was no turning back from the bow.

"Wei Wushu must continue to expand externally in order to maintain the fulfillment of military achievements, and you must know this better than I do."

Zhao Hongming said what he thought in his heart, and said with a smile: "Since Zhao Jun wants to occupy my Ying County, why can't I take Hedong County, which occupies them, General Wu thinks?" ”

In the past, when Wei Wushu's combat strength was unknown, his expectation in his heart was that he could resist Li Mu's army.

And now that Wei Wushu's combat power is so fierce that it is comparable to that of an army of 180,000, then his goal is not just defense.

Wu Qi observed his words and looks, thinking that his Royal Highness was already a martial artist in the Martial Courage Realm, and Wei Wushu's performance was extremely good, so he naturally had other ideas.

He said solemnly: "Kou can go to me, and I can go." ”

Zhao Hongming said: "Okay." The good news of this king and other generals, you don't have to worry about logistics, this king will ask Zhang Yi to cooperate with you as much as possible. ”

"Yes, Your Highness."

Zhao Hongming instructed: "Gao Yanshi, drive back to the city." ”

"Get on the road."

……

Hedong City.

After many days of preparation, Quan Erbao had rested and planned to leave Hedong City, and then go to Handan to join his friends.

Holding a donkey he bought, with a long knife from the Wei camp hanging from his waist, he walked on the streets of Hedong City.

There are more people on the streets than in previous days.

There are many martial artists of the Zhao Kingdom, almost endlessly.

Quan Erbao knew that these people should have been recruited by Li Mu to crusade against Yingjun, and the number was even more than he had expected.

He was gloating when the doors of the winery on the side of the street opened.

Two strong men dressed in brown shorts walked out one after another.

Listening to their accents, they are not locals on this side of Hedong, and their temperament is more suitable for the northern region, and the people who are close to Yan are a little heroic.

"When the elders of the Haoran Sect arrive, we will almost rush to the battlefield."

The strong man at the head, with a burly figure, tilted his head to talk to the person next to him.

Since the distance was not very far, the conversation between the two also fell into the ears of Quan Erbao.

"Big brother, there are 100,000 troops who came with Haoran Sect this time, plus the 20,000 people from our batch, a total of 300,000 troops, this is already close to the national war, right?"

Three hundred thousand?

Hearing this, the horizontal flesh on Rao is face couldn't help but tremble when he was already out of Wei Wushu's Quan Erbao.

What a joke.

He later learned that even after the expansion, the number of Wei Wushu in Ying County was only 30,000, and he was not looking for death for the 300,000 army of the Shang Zhao State?

Thankfully, I was gone.

It's a pity that the stupid centurion obviously had a good opportunity to go with him, but he didn't go, and he was reluctant to give up the sesame title.

What kind of Wei Wushu, he has long known that it will not last long, and the 300,000 troops facing Zhao will only be killed without leaving a piece of armor.

Quan Erbao felt that he was more wise, and his steps were more brisk when he walked.

At the same time, he also pricked up his ears and listened to the conversation between the two in front of him.

"Li Mu is going in the direction of the big trouble this time."

"Big brother, what else do you know about the inside information, tell my brother about it. The battlefield is a matter of life and death, if you know a little bit, maybe you can save your life at a critical time. ”

The strong man at the head said: "I don't know the specifics, I only know that the 100,000 army behind is led by Elder Shi Kaiyou Shi of Haoran Sect, and there is not only one elder of Haoran Sect who comes here, but two other elders also came." ”

"Isn't it? Three elders of the Haoran Sect came at once? ”

Quan Erbao stretched out his neck curiously and pricked up his ears to inquire.

All he had heard about Zhao Jun had been about Zhao Jun recently, but it was the first time he had heard about Haoran Sect.

The two strong men in front of him didn't seem to have a very high cultivation, and their spirits were not very sharp, so they didn't notice the eavesdropping movements of Quan Erbao behind them.

The strong man at the head continued: "It's the three of you, and I can pat my chest on this big brother and give you assurance." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, Elder Shi Kaiyou Shi of the Haoran Sect is already a martial artist of the four grades of martial arts, and this is all news from many years ago, and he has been in retreat in the door since then. Now maybe they have broken through and become a martial artist with five qualities of martial arts. ”

"The rest of the elders are basically in the Martial Courage Realm."

Another slightly shorter burly man was taken aback and said, "Three martial arts realm martial artists are participating in the battle together? ”

"That's why I said that Li Mu's plan to attack Ying County this time is not small, and their ambitions are afraid that they are not only the entire Ying County."

Hearing this, Quan Erbao couldn't help but smile a little bit on his face.

I didn't expect so many martial arts realm martial artists to participate.

Let's fight, let's fight.

It's better to knock out the brains of those stubborn dogs.

There are so many sunny avenues outside, and there is really no way to hang yourself from a tree.

He didn't listen to some of the gossip of the remaining two.

Quan Erbao led one of his little donkeys, humming a little song, and his mood was even more comfortable.

The little donkey with black hair on his back carried some bags and walked unhurriedly in Hexi City.

The outline of a city gate appeared before him.

As soon as he left this gate, then for him, a new life began.

The future will not be rich and rich, but it will definitely be more free and happy than in Wei Wushu's camp.

When Quan Erbao walked into the city gate, he heard someone outside the city shouting: "Close the city gate, close the city gate!" ”

"It's not time to close the city yet, what's going on?"

"Don't ask. There is an order from the top to close the city gate immediately, and there must be no mistake. If you have a business trip, you are the only one who asks! ”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

In the midst of the confusion, the gates were closed by the soldiers guarding the gates.

Quan Erbao hurriedly rushed over: "You wait for a while, let me go out of the city first." ”

"you. I didn't see the special situation now, and no one was allowed to go out of the city. ”

The county soldiers guarding under the city gate were unwilling to take care of Quan Erbao at all, and they trembled with anger.

He really wanted to draw his sword and cut off the head of this soldier.

It can be seen that the other party is overwhelming, and he is not necessarily an opponent, so he didn't dare to be impulsive, and watched the city gate close.

Quan Erbao comforted himself in his heart: "It's okay, it's okay to stay in Hedong City for a few more days and then go to Handan." ”

Many people were stranded under the city gates, unable to get out of the city, and were huddled together.

Quan Erbao heard many people muttering inside.

It was at this time that he heard the news of an earth-shattering shock.

"The 180,000 army in front was defeated, and King Wu of Yingjun used 30,000 troops to defeat Li Mu to the ground!"

"What? Really? ”

"Of course it's true, I have a relative close to Hexi City, and he saw it with his own eyes. After I knew it, I rushed back non-stop, packed up, and planned to go out to evacuate, but I didn't expect to be a step too late and trapped in the city. ”

"Has the follow-up army of Haoran Sect arrived?"

"It's coming soon. I heard that now Li Mu is holding Hexi City with tens of thousands of remnants. Now it depends on how the 100,000 army brought by Haoran Sect becomes. If they can't resist it, maybe our Hedong City will also change hands. ”

When Quan Erbao heard this news, his face was full of disbelief, he didn't want to believe it, and comforted himself: "Hmph, a group of rural villagers, what knowledge can they have, when the wind is rain, they will only be alarmist." ”

However, the words of the city gate guards chatting next shattered the last trace of luck in his heart.

"The Zhao army in front has been defeated, according to the meaning of the city to defend the ground, all adult men in the city will be recruited in the back, and we are afraid that we will be busy for a long time later. I just got married, alas...... The way of this world ......"

Quan Erbao's heart sank, and his whole body froze in place, unable to speak in a daze.

The news of the garrison of the city gate is very well-informed, and basically nine times out of ten it is true.

Is there really a big defeat ahead?

Even if it's 160,000 pigs, it's impossible to kill them so quickly, right?

Is Wei Wushu so powerful?

Quan Erbao only felt a little dry mouth.

Outside Hedong City, an army of more than 100,000 people was marching with banners embroidered with the characters "Zhao" and "Hao".

Led by three middle-aged men.

They had fair faces, wore white robes, and had an elegant aura all over their bodies.

These three people were none other than the three Martial Courage Realm elders who had come to the support of the Haoran Sect.

"Senior brother, should we take a break in Hedong City?"

"Let's go straight to Hexi City. I heard that the situation at the front line is not very good, and we must not delay, so we must arrive as soon as possible. ”

"Okay."
