This is war, undoubtedly a nightmare for the people, heavy taxes, inescapable military service, how many people are displaced, how many people are separated for this reason, how many people can't bear to part their clenched hands, once separated is a lifetime of separation, how many people look forward to seeing that figure appear again, and so on is indeed a cold corpse, war, has always been regarded as the most bloody game for men, whoever can dominate here can have the world, Yao Shunyu, and later Xia Shang Zhou, the same is to rejuvenate the country with martial arts, The strong eventually replace the weak.

A general was protected, the flag in his hand waved, a team of men and horses rushed out again, several soldiers rushed out together, carrying a long ladder on their shoulders, quickly passing the guò arrow rain cloud ladder obliquely up, from time to time someone fell down with an arrow, others quickly made up, the speed was not affected at all, the soldier held a shield and climbed up the ladder, and suddenly fell a burst of rocks on it, the soldiers fell down in a pool of blood, the corpses under the city wall were stacked together, and the soldiers behind were still moving forward.

"It's never the way to go!" Zhao Kuo's eyes fell on the city, in addition to the soldiers, there were vaguely many people dressed in black moving back and forth, the original loopholes suddenly became perfect with the addition of the men in black, and the soldiers close to the city wall could not escape the fate of being killed, the men in black held the long sword and moved flexibly, once someone climbed up the ladder, he immediately took out the sword.

"The terrain of Maiqiu is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and those Mo disciples who are good at defending the city participate, so they can't take it after attacking several times in a row, and the king is even more angry about this, and orders the general to take Maiqiu within a month, so that more people will die." Zhao Yun also shook his head again and again.

The middle general ordered the flag to move again, and another team of men and horses rushed out again, so that repeated battles will inevitably continue to appear, and the war will test not only combat strength, but also endurance and financial resources.

Zhao Kuo urged him to step forward, and finally saw the general holding the order flag, his face was gloomy, his bronze face, he was forty years old, there was a spear hanging on the saddle, a sword hanging from his waist, and he was wearing a majestic battle armor, Zhao Yun followed by his side, his eyes never left Shen Wan behind Zhao Kuo, he could always feel a murderous aura from this woman, after all, he was an outsider, if it wasn't for Gongzi's request to accompany him, he would definitely not take outsiders into the barracks lightly, and the distance was shortened to be secretly vigilant.

A few people approached, and the general turned around, "It's Kuo'er who is here, and I'll have a good drink with you when my father takes Maiqiu today." ”

This person must be Zhao Hao, his father, he is Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo on paper, now should be the time to show his peerless eloquence, "Father, if you fight like this, the casualties will be too great, the opponent's city gate is strong, and it may be difficult to break through for a while, the city is well prepared, and the cloud ladder is even more difficult to play." ”

Zhao Hao snorted coldly, "Sun Tzu's art of war has a cloud: 'Fight the enemy several times, encircle and annihilate, the defenders of Maiqiu are less than one-fifth of me, as long as you keep attacking, you will definitely be able to take it.'" ”

"Father, grandson also said that those who make good use of soldiers, the soldiers of the people instead of the war, the city of the people instead of the attack, the destruction of the country instead of the long, will fight for the whole world, so the army is not immediately profitable, this method of attacking is also." The classic sentences of my grandson that year quickly flashed in my mind, and I didn't want to come in handy at this time, I really regretted that I didn't study it well.

Zhao Hao laughed, "Kuo'er, you don't know if you haven't been trained on the battlefield, why the army of Zhao State can't capture a small Maiqiu, the first is the terrain here, which is not suitable for the army to move forward, otherwise the cavalry has already leveled here, and the second is the Mo disciples who are good at defending the city, these people are very difficult, and they are even more skilled, and the third is that the guards here are well-governed, which is also admired by my father." ”

At the mention of the guards, Qin Wan's body couldn't help but move, "Who is this girl?" ”

"She is Qin Wan, the daughter of the guard?"

Zhao Yun suddenly raised the spear in his hand after hearing this, and finally knew why he felt this way, he didn't want her to be the daughter of Qin Shan, the general of Maiqiu, this time there must be another use, Gongzi is really confused, if he had said such an identity earlier, he would have taken her down.

Qin Wan was behind Zhao Kuo, with a long sword and dagger at his waist, Zhao Hao gave a look, once he angered this woman, his son would inevitably be affected, Qin Wan snorted coldly: "I know that you people won't believe me." ”

"Zhao Kuo believes you."

Qin Wan immediately lowered her head, "General Zhao, General Maiqiu is no longer the original General Qin, and his father has been framed." At the mention of her father who was killed, Qin Wan burst into tears.

"I don't want General Qin to do it! It's a shame to lose an opponent who deserves respect. ”

The second team of the charge also failed, and the blood flowed like a river under the gate, and the third team had already been assembled, even if they saw the tragic death of their comrades, there was still no retreat, this is the fate of the soldiers, and retreating from the battle was also death, it was better to die on the way to the charge.

"Who is the current guard?"

"My father-killing enemy Qin Yu!"

Zhao Hao nodded, "When we were attacking the city, we already saw that there was chaos in the defense, I originally thought that the troops were insufficient to guide the guide, but it turned out that the generals were changed, and the generals must be unstable on the spot, so it will be of great benefit to us, and the land of Maiqiu will definitely be captured!" ”

Zhao Hao is used to fighting on the battlefield, Zhao Peng's belief in his life is to save people, how can such a tragedy happen in front of him, "Father! What can you do if you capture Maiqiu in such a hard attack, the loss of troops is far above the opponent, and even if you win, how many people have lost their relatives and how many people have been displaced, it is also a loss. ”

Zhao Hao snorted coldly, "Casualties on the battlefield are inevitable, and what determines the outcome of a battle is nothing more than who is capable?" Who has heaven and earth? What is the law? Which of the soldiers is stronger? Soldiers' training? What is the reward and punishment? The rest is child's play! ”

"Since this is the case, what is the use of what to do, Sun Bin has lost his legs back then, why he can be invincible, it depends on whether he is fighting or not, and the victory or defeat of a war is not the city and land occupied but the hearts and minds that can be obtained."

Zhao Hao's face sank, Zhao Yun shook his head again and again, after all, this is a battlefield, everything is only the general's own decision, no matter what kind of orders are given, they can only obey, no one can disobey, if you change the strategy at will, it will not violate the law, and it will damage the general's prestige even more.

The soldiers on the city wall ran back and forth, and the men in black walked through it, inevitably waiting for the next offensive of the Zhao army, and they were also tired after fighting for days, even if they stopped for a short time, they became precious, leaning on the city wall and closing their eyes, they had already become numb in the face of the arrows and boulders that were thrown.

A person was in tattered clothes, with a frightened face, his body was trembling against the spear, he was no more than twelve or thirteen years old from his age, his immature shoulders were leaning on the spear full of bloodstains, he couldn't tell whether it was the blood of his companion or the blood of Zhao Jun, his face still had the immaturity of a child, he must have been captured for military service, he didn't want to let go of such a child, watching the tragic death of his companions around him, watching Zhao Ren who was swarming along the ladder finally couldn't help but stab out the spear hard, with a scream, bright red blood flowed from his throat, he killed someone, There is no joy, there is only fear.

Why is there a war?

Zhao Hao's command flag was raised again, and the third team camp was suddenly shrouded in sorrow, without fear and without any joy, the siege of the city for days has never been able to seize the city wall, the city gate is even stronger, plus the archers arranged above, the soldiers responsible for hitting the door often did not run to the front and were killed and wounded.

Everyone is waiting quietly, waiting for the moment when the flag is waved, and the short silence makes people understand more the meaning of life, not war but survival, and can only survive if you can achieve victory.

Zhao Hao's eyes were gloomy, Ling Qi held it in his hand, his eyes fell on the corpses under the city wall, those are his most loyal subordinates, how can he not be heartbroken when he sees a team falling, it's just that King Zhao is urging him to take Mai Qiu within a month, if he can't win, he will inevitably be implicated, after all, Kuo'er is young and doesn't understand the stakes, but what he said is not unreasonable, although Mai Qiu has changed the guards, but the soldiers who defend the city have already been trained for a long time, plus the Mo family disciples who are uncertain, The army of Zhao State has been unable to capture Maiqiu after repeated attacks, and what is the difference between these people he brought, and the way of attacking the city is also the same.

"Retreat!"

Zhao Yun on the side couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, he didn't want this sentence to come out of the general's mouth, he has been by the general's side for many years, and he knows the general's personality very well, is persistent, persevering, and never gives up lightly.

"Pass my general's order, the front army will become the rear army, echo before and after, and retreat!"

The camp turned sharply and there was no confusion, and there were cheers from the walls, not in victory, but in order to live, and the child seemed to be equally inspired by the atmosphere, with the spear in his hand raised upwards and an innocent smile on his face.
