Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 265
Chapter 264: Changhuan City Breaks Down
Outside Changhuan City, in the camp of the Zhao Army and the large tent of the Chinese Army, Xin Zhao summoned all the generals to discuss matters concerning the siege of the city. It has been more than a year since the 80 Zhao army went south, although Zhao Guo has already prepared for this time. It is very sufficient, but after fighting for so long, it still has a great impact on the people's livelihood of Zhao Guo. Now Qi and Wei can be said to have been disabled by Zhao Jun, and there is no threat to Zhao Guo, so Zhao Guochao Some people in the hall have already suggested that Xin Zhao should retreat and fight again in the future. If King Zhao hadn’t been supported by the great ambitions in his heart and asked King Zhao to suppress all the remonstrances to retreat, I’m afraid that Xin Zhao would have to return to Jinyang with the army. up.

What Xin Zhao needs to do now is to break through Wei State quickly, to give confidence to the ministers in the court, to let them know that it will not take long to destroy Qi Wei and seize the Central Plains, so Xin Zhao can't wait any longer.

"Everyone, in recent days, there has been an accident in the Wei army in Changhuan City. If the general guessed correctly, Pang Kuo has already lost power. Now the person in charge in Changhuan City is Wei Bu, the general of the Wei army. Although I don't know if this is Wei. What the king meant, but what is certain is that the change of commander in the middle of the battle will be a great blow to the morale of the Wei army, and our army has an opportunity." Zhao Xin said, looking at the generals.

"General, is this true?" Li Rubing asked. It is a taboo for military strategists to change commanders before battle. Li Rubing didn't believe that King Wei would be so stupid, so he had doubts about this matter.

Zhao Dao said: "General Li, I would have known what you were worried about, but what I could be sure of is that this matter is likely to be inseparable. Besides, even if it was Wei Jun's trick, in the strength of our army of hundreds of thousands In front of him, so what can a little conspiracy do?"

Li Rubing nodded, Xin Zhao also made sense, as the saying goes, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is very pale and powerless.

Seeing that no one had any objections, Xin Zhao explained his siege plan, saying: "Now our army has more than [-] troops here, four times the Wei army, and has an absolute advantage, so I decided to attack immediately. Fortress, as long as Wei State is defeated, we can lay siege to Qi State. Now the court is under great pressure, and we will completely destroy Qi and Wei within a year. I hope you will encourage each other!"

"Yes, General!" Everyone responded.

On June 18, Qianyuan [-]th, Zhao Jun launched a strong attack on Changhuan City, and Wei Bu also led Wei Jun to resist desperately. However, due to the power struggle in the army, the morale of Wei Jun was greatly hit, so Wei Jun resisted and did nothing. It wasn't very intense, which made Xin Zhao very happy and ordered the army to step up the offensive.

Wei Bu was also very helpless about this. He also tried many methods to stimulate the morale of the Wei army, but it was all in vain. After all, Pang Kuo's prestige in the Wei army was so high that many people in the Wei army were against him. Wei Bu was dissatisfied, and Wei Bu couldn't convince the whole army for a while, so Changhuan City began to crumble under the powerful offensive of Zhao Jun.

In a rage, Wei Bu beheaded several generals of the Wei army who were unable to resist. This made the Wei army even more alienated. Xin Zhao also took advantage of the chaos of the Wei army and began to confuse the generals of the Wei army to surrender.

On the night of June 18th, [-]th year of Qianyuan, a general of Wei Jun quietly opened Changhuan City and let Zhao Jun enter the city.

As soon as Zhao Jun entered the city, he began to kill. Countless Wei Jun soldiers who were still asleep were beheaded, and Wei Bu also woke up from his sleep and led his troops to resist in a panic.

Just when Zhao Jun entered the city, Chu Fei brought a large number of Pang Kuo's old troops to the grain depot and found Pang Kuo. When Pang Kuo saw this, he was shocked and heard deafening killing cries. He asked quickly, "What happened?" ?”

Chu Fei said anxiously: "Great Sima, Zhao Jun has entered the city!"

"What!" When Pang Kuo heard this, he was shocked and said: "A few days ago, I heard that the Zhao army had just started to attack, how could it break the city so quickly? Could it be that our Wei's tens of thousands of soldiers are all decorations? "

It’s no wonder that Pang Kuo was so surprised. The Wei army has 10,000+ people anyway. Although the Zhao army has 50 million people, they can also break through Changhuan City. What about the city?

Sun Ru said angrily, "Big Sima, it's all Wei Bu's trash. If it wasn't for him, how could the Zhao army break through the city so quickly?"

"Wei Bu? What's wrong with him? With his ability, there's no reason why he was defeated so quickly." Pang Kuo was even more puzzled. Although he and Wei Bu were at odds, he still recognized Wei Bu's ability. Among Wei Guo, only he can overwhelm him. How can such a character be defeated so quickly, or is it said that Zhao Xin and Zhao Jun are too powerful, if that is really the case, then what hope does Wei Guo have.

"It's like this." Chu Fei explained: "Since the accident of Da Sima, the morale of the army has been low. During the battles in the past few days, they were all suppressed by the Zhao army. Killed several side generals and lieutenant generals, one of the side general's younger brother is also a side general, in order to avenge his brother, secretly informed the Zhao army, opened the city gate tonight, and let the Zhao army enter the city."

When Pang Kuo heard this, he said angrily, "Wei Bu misled me. He didn't investigate the relationship in advance, which led to our army's defeat. He will definitely become Wei's sinner!"

"Da Sima, now is not the time to talk about this, please think of a way." Chu Fei said, now that the Zhao army has entered the city, and the Wei army is in chaos, if there is no way to do it, all these 10,000+ people will be buried here Changhuan City is gone.

But what can Pang Kuo do? With the city in hand, Pang Kuo still has the confidence to deal with Xin Zhao, and even dragged it off for a year or so until the Zhao army ran out of ammunition and food, and took the initiative to retreat, but now the city is gone. Now, what can he use to resist hundreds of thousands of Zhao troops?

Pang Kuo smiled wryly and said: "What else can we do now? The Zhao army has already entered the city, and staying in Changhuan is a dead end. The only way out now is to quickly withdraw from Changhuan with troops and horses, so as to preserve how much strength we have. How much is it, Sun Ru and Feng Kui!"

"The last general is here!" Sun Ru and Feng Kui responded.

"The two of you immediately summon troops and horses in the name of this Sima, and gather as many troops as you can. After half an hour, we will withdraw from Changhuan." Now that the Zhao army has entered the city, there is not much time left for Pang Kuo. So Pang Kuo only gave Sun Ru and Feng Kui one hour. After one hour, no matter how many soldiers and horses they gathered, they had to withdraw from Changhuan. If it was too late, it would be too late.

After Sun Ru and Feng Kui left, Pang Kuo said to Shang Luo again: "General Shang, hurry up and control the south gate, and let us retreat!"

"Here!" Shang Luo responded.

Sun Ru and Feng Kui set up a huge banner, and for a while, Wei Jun, who was still in a panic, seemed to have found an organization, and came here as a bee chrysalis, but this was also discovered by Zhao Jun, and a large number of Zhao Jun came here When they were killed, Feng Kui had no choice but to personally lead troops to block Zhao Jun, and let Sun Ru continue to gather troops.

An hour later, Pang Kuo led his troops to kill Changhuan from the south gate, but out of 10,000+ Wei troops, less than 5 people could follow Pang Kuo to kill them. After leaving the city, Pang Kuo did not dare to stay, but went all the way south. Wei Bu, can only let him fend for himself.

After Pang Kuo left, the faith in the hearts of a large number of Wei troops collapsed instantly, and they put down their weapons and surrendered one after another, while Wei Bu, Wei Li and others died in the chaos.

In this battle, the Zhao army suffered more than [-] casualties. In addition to the losses in the siege of the city in the past few days, the total casualties were more than [-], the Wei army was killed more than [-], and more than [-] were captured.

After taking control of Changhuan City, Zhao Xin sent troops to send all the Wei soldiers back to the north of the Yellow River to prevent them from making trouble.

When cleaning the city, it was discovered that Pang Kuo had led tens of thousands of Wei troops to kill him. Xin Zhao also frowned. It was still troublesome for Zhao Jun not to kill Pang Kuo. There is no other way.

It is said that after Pang Kuo killed the city, he led the remnant soldiers all the way south to the east. Although Pang Kuo regained power as he wished, the Wei army has become a defeated general with less than 5 soldiers left. As for the army, so Pang Kuo wrote to the king of Wei, requesting that tens of thousands of people stationed in Chen Jun and Pei Jun be transferred to support and make a final effort.
