887. Strategic success

Li Mu didn't speak, and acquiesced to Zhao Cheng's meaning, he Li Mu was loyal to Zhao Guo, not Zhao He and Zhao Zhang.

His help to Zhao Zhang was completely entrusted by Zhao Yong, Zhao's father, and now that Zhao Yong is dead, Zhao Zhang's defeat has been decided, and he can basically say goodbye to Zhao Zhang's forces.

But at this time, he didn't plan to help Zhao He win Zhao Zhang, because if he took refuge in Zhao He at this time, it meant that he had betrayed the enemy, and he became a traitor to Zhao Zhang, so that after he died, I am afraid that he would not have the shame to face Lord Zhao's father.

Zhao Zhang and they relied on the concealment of the mountain road to successfully evade the pursuit of Zhao He's army and the Qin army, and the Qin army entered the mountain road, but in this vast mountain, how can they find Zhao Zhang?

After they entered the mountain road, they could only rely on luck to catch up with Zhao Zhang, of course, their large army took the avenue, hoping to reach the entrance of the mountain road before Zhao Zhang.

Zhao Zhang stayed in the mountain road for a month, he looked at Tian Buli beside him with a dusty face and said, "You say, is the sky going to kill me here?" ”

Tian Buli said on the side: "Your Majesty, why do you say such depressing words? ”

"You are not dead yet, as long as you dodge the pursuit of Zhao Cheng and the Qin army, we can make a comeback with the strength of the Qi army!" Tian Buli looked at Zhao Zhang and said.

"Comeback?" Zhao Zhang looked at Tian Buli and was silent for a long time, then he suddenly said, "Will Qi Jun really help us?" ”

"It's not that I don't believe in Tian Xiang's ability, I don't believe in Qi Guo!"

And Lian Po on the side said: "Your Majesty, now we can only trust the Qi Kingdom!" ”

"Because the only thing that can help us turn things around now is the Qi Kingdom!" Lian Po looked at Zhao Zhang and said.

Zhao Zhang took a deep breath and nodded, of course he knew that now that his strength had all collapsed, he could only survive by relying on the Qi State.

After walking the mountain road for more than a month, Zhao Zhang looked ahead, and Lian Po hurriedly shouted: "The king's exit has arrived!" ”

Tian Buli looked at Zhao Zhang and said, "Your Majesty, let's leave quickly, if we don't leave, it may be too late!" ”

Tian Buli was worried that there were Qin Jun and Zhao He's troops here, so he persuaded Zhao Zhang to leave quickly, the avenue was easier to walk than the mountain road.

If the Qin army insists on pursuing the road, it is easy to reach the exit of the mountain road.

Of course, there were many exits to the mountain road, and the Qin army didn't necessarily know that Tian Buli would come out at that exit, so they had to disperse their forces.

Zhao Zhang nodded, and with the support of the guards, he walked out of the mountain road, and then looked at Lian Po: "Next, where are we going?" ”

Lian Po saw that there was a stone tablet at the mouth of this mountain road, which read: 'Thousand Valleys and Mountains and Forests', and he took a deep breath: "This is not far from Qianlin City, and Qianlin City has a garrison of the Qi army, let's go there!" ”

Lian Po thought that at this time, they wanted to take refuge in the Qi army, so they chose to flee to the city where the Qi army was garrisoned.

And after they came out, they knew that they couldn't stay here for a long time, and they had to leave, and they softened and encountered the Qin army, and I was afraid that everything was over.

However, the more afraid you are, the more you may come, only to see the cavalry of the Qin State wearing black armor holding the black Qin flag.

Lian Po looked at Zhao Zhang and said, "We still have three thousand guards, and I will use these three thousand guards to prepare for the king's evacuation!" ”

Zhao Zhang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lian Po and said, "What about you, general?" ”

"I'm too old to walk long, I'm willing to use my last old bones to escort the king!" After Lian Po finished speaking, he raised his sword and shouted, "Array!" ”

Tian Buli looked at Zhao Zhang on the side: "Your Majesty, let's go quickly, if we don't leave, it's too late!" ”

And the soldiers had already raised a long formation with their shields, blocking the Qin cavalry and setting up a path for Zhao Zhang.

When the generals of the Qin State saw that Zhao Zhang was about to flee from here, he hurriedly shouted, "You must not let them go!" ”

I saw the cavalry of the Qin State attacking, and Lian Po, the three thousand elite guards, blocked the first wave of the impact of the Qin State.

Lian Po said with a smile: "Although I am old, there is no problem in dealing with this group of miscellaneous soldiers!"

And the generals of the Qin State could only look at Tian Buli and Zhao Zhang, slipping away from under his nose, Lian Po looked at the generals of the Qin State: "Aren't you very angry?" ”

"Isn't there anything you can do about it?" Lian Po's ridicule made the generals of the Qin State extremely angry, but they were angry but helpless.

Lian Po set up a hollow phalanx, which is a phalanx dedicated to dealing with cavalry, and it is also Lian Po's famous formation.

Lian Po is famous all over the world for guarding, and this guard relied on the hollow phalanx to face the enemy and annihilate the enemy.

The pursuing Qin army was at least 10,000 people, and among these 10,000 people there were at least more than 2,000 cavalry.

The general raised his hand: "Give me arrows and shoot them!" ”

I saw that the bow and arrows began to shoot arrows, and the soldiers of Lian Po raised their shields to resist, and when the arrows were fired, the cavalry could not attack.

Because at this time, it is easy to cause self-casualties when the soldiers are attacked, and several waves of bows and arrows come down, and the soldiers of Lian Po have few casualties.

After all, they are the elite soldiers under Lian Po, who are good at defense, and they don't know how to resist bows and arrows.

Lian Po looked at everyone and said, "I am very happy to have your group of soldiers follow me!" ”

"Today I will fight here to the death, if there are brothers who want to leave, I will not say a word, and I will not be dealt with by military law!" Lian Po looked at these people and said.

And everyone was stunned, they looked at Lian Po: "General, you? ”

"I'm already old, I don't have many years to go, as a general, instead of dying in bed, it is better to die on the battlefield in style, which can be regarded as a successful end to my life!" Lian Po looked at the soldier and said.

"And you are different, some of you are still very young, only in their teens, and it is a pity to die here before ten, so I let you leave!"

"You still have a long way to go, there's no need to die here with me, an old fellow!" Lian Po said to everyone.

The people were silent, they heard what Lian Po meant, and said that it was nice to hear, Lian Po was going to fight to the death with the other party, and it was hard to say, this was to commit suicide here.

Of course, Lian Po did this, in fact, because he couldn't see his hope of victory, he only had 3,000 soldiers, and they were remnants, they had just experienced the fatigue of walking mountain roads, and their combat effectiveness was definitely not as good as their peak state.

And the opponent is the elite Qin army that has finished recuperation, they have 2,000 cavalry, 8,000 infantry, if they die here, he Lian Po will be defeated here.

And Lian Po has no way back, and the other side may have reinforcements arrive at any time, this battle, from the beginning, Lian Po knew that it was a lost war.

But this is another war that has to be fought, because he is tactically defeated by the other side, but strategically he will win, because it can allow Zhao Zhang and Tian Buli to successfully escape from here.
