  Chapter 127 Battlefield (Happy New Year)

   Zhao Di, Wu Sui.

   This was originally a famous military fortress in Zhao State.

   But now, this place has been completely reduced to ruins.

  The remnants of armor and broken weapons scattered around, the smoke of gunpowder and the flames of war have witnessed the tragic battle here not long ago.

  Facing the war weapons made by the Gongshu family's domineering mechanism, even the Wusui city wall, which was more than several feet high, could not sustain it in the end. Under the repeated bombardment of various war weapons, most of it finally collapsed.

  The fortress that lost its walls is like the West that lost Jerusalem two thousand years later.

  Although the city is still there, it is no different from the boudoir of a young woman who keeps its doors open late at night.

   Now it is an abandoned fortress.

   However, no one found out.

   Just here, the war just ended not long ago.

   After being repelled, a Qin army team quietly returned to the ruined city, and began to rebuild the collapsed city wall.

   "Uncle Dajiang, what are we doing?"

  In the Qin Army squad, a recruit named "Lu Wei" was carrying blue bricks and gravel in the ruins, while showing doubts, he couldn't help asking the senior beside him.

   "Fix the wall!"

   "What? Repair the wall? Repair the wall at this time, what should we do if Zhao Jun comes back suddenly?" Hearing this, Lu Wei couldn't help exclaiming.

   "Don't worry! Now the frontline army has led Zhao Jun to the battlefield hundreds of miles away. Even if the opponent starts to retreat at this time, it is impossible to return here within four or five days."

   Veteran 'Da Jiang' didn't care about Lu Wei's worries at all, and said carelessly.

  However, hearing this, Lu Wei not only did not feel relieved, but felt even worse.

   "Four or five days? But if such a city wall is to be repaired, it will take a month at the earliest!"

As soon as the veteran 'Da Jiang' said this, before he could speak, he heard another veteran beside him grinning at him and saying, "Hey~~ boy, you're new here! I'll let you learn more today and let you know What is a supernatural skill?"

  ······

  ······

at the same time.

  Qin, Yanmen.

  Meng Ao stood on the top of the wall wearing a battle armor, followed by Meng Tian on the left and Qin General Huan Juan on the right. The three looked at the 100,000 Zhao army tents stationed outside the city with cold eyes.

   A month ago.

  Qin general Meng Ao led an army of 200,000 troops to Chen Bing on the border of Zhao State, and asked Zhao Wangqian for an explanation on the grounds that "Qin State [new grain] was stolen a few months ago".

  Zhao Guo naturally refused to admit it.

  Luoxingmen’s theft of [New Grain Seeds] is indeed just a fabrication by Mo Jun and Ying Zheng, but Zhao Guo’s theft of [New Grain Seeds] is a fact.

  The stealing was done by petty thieves, and Zhao Guo, as one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, naturally couldn't openly admit that he had done such an unbearable thing.

   So Zhao Guo said: "Old Qin! You came over to question me so openly, and I, Lao Zhao, can't make up for it. This matter is very difficult!"

  Then Qin Guo overturned the table: "Difficult to do? Then don't do it!"

  Niang Niang opened her eyes and took a good look.

   I, Lao Qin, brought so many troops here, do you seem to be doing business with you?

  So the war is about to break out.

   Meng Ao led an army of 200,000 troops to march from two routes, and within half a month, they went down to Yanmen and Yunzhong in Zhao State.

   And it is still advancing towards Zhao's domestic line until it reaches the outside of Zhao Guowusui City.

   Until then.

   Zhao Wangqian finally couldn't sit still.

   Hastily dispatched General Zhao Huzhe to lead an army of 100,000 to help from the rear, and finally fought against the Qin army outside Wusui City for three days and three nights.

  After paying the price for the destruction of half of Wusui City, Zhao Jun finally succeeded in keeping the Qin Army out of the city, and launched a counterattack, pushing the Qin Army back to the land of Yanmen.

Um!

  At least in Zhao Guo's view, Hu Zhe at this time has indeed pushed back the front line.

   However, in fact, this is Meng Ao's strategy to lure the enemy into the depths.

  ······

   "It's almost time!"

  Looking at the scorching sun gradually rising in the sky, Meng Ao took out a 'sundial pocket watch' from his bosom, silently calculated the time it would take for Wu Sui to build the city wall, and said in a deep voice.

   "Where is Meng Tian?"

   "Here is the humble position."

   "I will order you to command an army of 50,000 troops, march from the left flank, and block the enemy's left retreat. There must be no mistakes."

   "The subordinate takes orders."

  Meng Tian bowed to lead Meng Ao's command.

   Immediately afterwards, Meng Ao opened his mouth to the right again.

   "Where is Huan Yu?"

   "This subordinate is here."

   "I will command you to command an army of 50,000 troops, march from the right flank, and block the enemy's retreat from the right. There must be no mistakes."

   "The subordinate takes orders."

  Huan Jue also respectfully cupped his fists and saluted, and received Meng Ao's command.

   "The rest of the soldiers follow the general's command, march from the front, and attack!"

  Accompanied by Meng Ao's order, the 200,000 Qin army suddenly dispatched, and with an unprecedented momentum, suddenly launched an attack on Zhao Jun's camp.

   It was only the first round of charge, and countless Zhao Jun were immediately stunned.

   After all, in the wars of the past few days, Zhao Guo has always been victorious. Why did the situation suddenly become like this?

   Only half an hour.

  The frontline army of the 100,000 Zhao army was crumbling under Meng Ao's repeated attacks.

   Seeing that his own army was about to collapse, General Zhao could only issue military orders, and was forced to choose to retreat temporarily, planning to return to the rear to regroup before making plans.

   But next.

   Something that Ling Huxie didn't expect happened again.

  In this battle, the Qin army had obviously gained a huge advantage, but they didn't even clean up the battlefield, and directly pursued the defeated Zhao army.

  Such behavior made Hu Zhe unable to bear a moment of surprise.

To know.

   Today's Zhao army has only lost, but it has not been completely defeated and lost its combat effectiveness.

  In this case, chasing after it like this is never the right decision.

   There is no way to enter the forest, and no way to chase after the poor.

  This is the most basic essentials of the art of war.

  War is about repeating, declining again, exhausting three times...

  A long chase will not only consume a lot of physical strength, but if the chase fails to achieve results, it will easily lead to a decline in one's own morale.

  If this is the time.

  The enemy suddenly launches a counterattack, and it is easy to have a desperate comeback.

  This kind of low-level tactical error, logically speaking, should not appear on a master of military art.

  Hu Zhe was quite puzzled by what Qin Jun was doing, but Qin Jun's pressing force did not give Hu Zhe much time to think.

   Facing the pursuit of nearly 200,000 troops, Hu Zhe could only fight and retreat.

   Until five days later.

  When the remaining 70,000 to 80,000 Zhao troops of Commander Hu Zhe retreated back to Wusui, the group of people looked at the scene in front of them, and their eyes widened instantly.

  ······

   New Year's Eve, I'm a little busy, the update is late, sorry!
