Chapter 176: The South Wind is Warm, and This Life Is Broken (2)

On the forest path, several fast horses galloped forward, and the trees fell backwards along the way, which is also common, but now it is different, judging from the other party's clothing, it is not a Yan person, and it is also not a Qi person, a high felt hat is worn on the head, and the war horse is under the crotch, and the body is slightly short, but the horse's legs are more robust, and the patience is extremely strong, and it is also suitable for long-distance running.

Why did the Donghu cavalry appear on the border of Yanqi, most of the country of Qi fell into the hands of the Zhao army, and only a few small cities in the remote area still regarded themselves as the state of Qi, and the border area was also called the border of Yanqi.

"Drive!"

The whip in his hand was raised, and the sound was thrown in the air, and the war horse was habitual on weekdays, and when he heard this sound, it was like a horse whip hitting his body, and his four hooves accelerated and galloped forward.

Yan country city fortress, the tribal leader anxiously waiting for news, Donghu Wang looked calm, over the years has already developed a non-startling personality, Erdona stood aside, from time to time to look outside the city, Yan Wang inadvertently looked at the towering chest, although it was covered by clothes it was still difficult to hide.

Erdona gave a blank look

"Cavalry!"

A man pointed with his hand, and several black dots appeared in the distance, the black dots became larger and larger, and the speed of the cavalry was amazing, but in an instant, they quickly approached the fortress, shouting, and the sound of horse whips echoed each other.

A smile appeared on the face of King Donghu, and he could already see a qiΔ“ from the expression of the cavalry, "Great victory, Zhao people have fled, Zhao people have fled!" ”

The cavalry approached and shouted, the figure stood up from the horse, and the whip in his hand kept dancing, which was the characteristic posture of the victor, and everyone laughed, "Congratulations, Brother Wang!" ”

King Donghu said: "Tongxi, according to the covenant, you and I will share the gains." ”

Everyone walked down from it quickly, and the gate of the fortress opened and the cavalry entered, briefly recounting what happened along the way, especially when it came to the escape of the Zhao army and the takeover of Jimo City by the army.

"Capture Jimo!"

King Yan showed a look of disbelief on his face, you must know that he paid a great price for Jimo City that day, Zhao Kuo did not hesitate to capture Jimo at any cost, and his fancy must be the geographical location of Jimo City, as long as he controls this city, it can pose an absolute threat to other cities in the east, and now what is the reason for giving it up, there seems to be only one explanation, Zhao Guo has changed, and he has to retreat.

"Spies!"

It didn't take long for the Yan Kingdom scout to fly forward, "King! ”

"Is there any news from Zhao Guo?"

The man shook his head, "There hasn't been any news in months. ”

"Qin direction?"

"Qin's civil strife is still ongoing."

"Why did Zhao Kuo withdraw from the army!?" King Yan exclaimed, also with questions, this result was completely beyond King Yan's expectations, Zhao Jun's retreat was no longer in line with common sense, and the first two battles were completely dominant, even if he fought hard, he didn't suffer a loss, what trick was Zhao Kuo playing, King Yan couldn't help but tap his head with his hand, his thoughts were confused, only in this way could he sober up.

"Why bother so much, the Zhao army has been defeated, take advantage of the victory to pursue and drive the Zhao army back to Handan in one fell swoop." A tribal leader had a fierce face on his face, and the tribe's troops had suffered many casualties in the previous war, and his hatred for the Zhao people in his heart could be imagined.

"Where did the Zhao people retreat?"

"Presumably Linzi City."

Someone took the marching map, and King Donghu pointed with his finger, "If you can get this city, a radius of dozens of miles is completely under the control of the cavalry, and here, and the area here can be completely controlled!" ”

King Yan nodded, "Linzi City is the capital city of Qi in the past, which can echo Jimo, so that the entire land of Qi is owned by Brother Wang!" ”

"The entire Qi country!"

"Not bad!"

King Donghu nodded, "In this case, the Zhao people will definitely not give up this city lightly, attacking the city is not what the Donghu people are good at, if you want to win this time, you can only rely on the king to send troops to help." "The Yan camp did not participate in the fight with the Zhao army, and the Donghu tribe was brave and good at fighting, and they didn't take the Yan soldiers seriously at all.

King Yan smiled indifferently, "Naturally, since the covenant comes first, the widow will definitely not stand idly by!" ”

"Good!" King Donghu shouted, his voice was loud, although it was not as heroic as back then, "Immediately mobilize Wang Wei to rush to Linzi and defeat the Zhao army in one fell swoop!" ”

The order was issued, the elite under the throne of Donghu flashed out quickly, the same cavalry, but the momentum was completely different, with a bow and crossbow on his back, one by one he was in good spirits, Donghu Wang Wei was a veteran of a hundred battles, and he was proficient in raids, bow shooting, and position fighting, and he had defeated the 100,000 coalition troops of the four major tribes in one fell swoop with 40,000 Wang Wei, and the other party was slumped since then.

"The king, do you really want to send troops?" The strategist behind him stepped forward quickly and asked in a low voice.

"How can such a good opportunity be lost, the Zhao people are immortal, and the Yan Kingdom is always under the opponent's butcher's knife."

The man said: "I have heard that Zhao Kuo's use of soldiers is unguardable, king, don't be careless." ”

King Yan sneered, "The people of the world are afraid of him, Zhao Kuo is not afraid, pass on the order, the army set off, and rushed to Linzi with all the materials and equipment!" "King Yan has made up his mind, it is also a helpless move, the strength of the Zhao army is like a scimitar hanging over the Yan country, the entire Yan country is always facing the danger of engulfment, a war is inevitable, so he simply took the opportunity to send troops in a big way.

The strength of the Yan State on the periphery of the Guansai is close to 100,000, of which 30,000 are drawn from all over the country and have limited combat strength, and the remaining 70,000 are mobilizable troops, leaving 10,000 to defend the fortress, and the remaining 90,000 are ready to go.

The horn sounded one after another, more than 100,000 troops marched, the Donghu tribe attacked with all their might, leaving only 5,000 crossbowmen to guard the city, the infantry was close to 60,000, the Donghu army went first, and the rear was the bow and crossbow and the supply camp, and the army of more than 100,000 rushed to Jimo City.

"What is this?"

"General, this is the best chicken, and the marinated pork."

With a snap, he knocked it directly to the ground, "Take the best beef." ”

"There's no beef here."

"Why not, I saw that there were two scalpers."

"General, I can't help it, it's for farming."

"I'll kill you all again."

The Donghu general showed a fierce face, and the old man looked helpless, "Kill, kill, it's useless to keep it." "The eyes are full of reluctance, how many people's life, now they will become something in the mouths of others.

The roasted beef emits bursts of aroma, grabs it in its hand and stuffs it into its mouth, pours the good wine directly into its mouth, the mouth emits bursts of cheers, the bonfire is lit, and the Donghu soldiers dance to celebrate the victory, and the scene is lively for a while.

On the other hand, the people in the city hid at home, most of the food was snatched away, and they could only go hungry, some looked out, some swallowed saliva, and they couldn't remember the last time they ate meat.

"General, the king is here with Wang Wei, and he will arrive tomorrow!"

"Good!"

The three murderers will stand up at the same time, "Cheers to the hegemony of the Donghu people!" ”

There was nothing to say all night, along the way, the Donghu army entered the periphery of Jimo City, the cavalry settled, the Donghu King and everyone entered the city, and the three murderers waited in front of the city gate, and saw a team of men and horses flash out in the middle and quickly stepped forward.

"Well done!"

In the face of the love general, the expression of the king of Donghu revealed the meaning of approval, the three of them did not say much and bowed to the side, everyone entered the city, that is, Mocheng as the second largest city in the Qi country, the scale is not even under the capital of the Yan country, the people of Donghu sighed again and again, especially the towering buildings, the fine carvings on them, these are completely not possessed by the Donghu people, even if they learn the smelting of bronze technology, the weapons and bronze utensils produced are equally shoddy.

"Why are there no people in the city?"

"Back to the king, I have inquired clearly, and the Zhao people left with the people to go to Linzi together!"

King Donghu laughed, "Zhao Kuo is really naΓ―ve, he is already in danger and has to take care of these people, so not only can he not increase his strength, but it will only weaken the mobility of the army several times, how can this king let go of such a good opportunity!" "King Donghu has been fighting for many years and knows the stakes best, once there is a drag when attacking the tribe, the whole tribe will be in danger, just like the wolves on the grassland, once one of the wolves is sick or there are other situations that cannot keep up with the team, even the most united wolves on weekdays will not hesitate to give up their companions, this is not cruel but to let more wolves live.

"Brother Wang is going to pursue?"

King Donghu nodded, "Yes, even if the Zhao army at this time is on guard, it is still the weakest time in battle, plus there are people dragging it down, and the speed of movement along the way is even slower, as long as a few teams of cavalry are sent to launch a surprise attack from several directions, then the camp can be defeated in one fell swoop!" The king decided to fight in person. ”

"Okay, the widow commands the rear army, and raises a glass in Linzi City again!"
