"Hey, let's go now, you just took a look, hello!"

Turning around, Gu Nan's eyes were dull, but there was also an indescribable determination.

————————————————————————

While Gu Nan was recuperating, the tug-of-war between the Qin and Zhao armies had lasted until the fifth day.

"Kill!" Shocking shouts of killing could be heard several miles away.

The originally clear Qinshui of the Dan River was almost stained blood red, and dead floating corpses and broken long swords stuck upside down could be seen everywhere.

The blood seeped into the soil, almost dyeing the ground reddish brown.

In front of an army twice as many as its own, Zhao's army was on the verge of collapse, but the temporary defense line they built was still standing there, like a dead tree in a strong wind, struggling to support it under the attack of the Qin army.

The temporary camp was undoubtedly rudimentary. A soldier of the Qin army split the broken wood on the fence with a sword and rushed into the camp.A Zhao soldier roared wildly, hugged him and knocked him out of the camp, and died in the blink of an eye under the chaotic swords of the Qin army outside.

"Everyone! Hold on!" Zhao Kuo, whose armor was cracked, knocked down a Qin soldier and shouted loudly, panting heavily.

After shouting, he looked at Qin Bing who continued to surround him, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said weakly, "Stay here for a few more days."

I don't know whether I am talking to the soldiers or to myself.

Then he raised the sword in his hand and rushed into the crowd again.

Zhao Kuo couldn't even remember how many times this was the first attack launched by the Qin army.

His body was covered in blood, and even his hair was clotted with blood.

With 40 people defending the offensive of more than [-] troops for five days under unfavorable terrain, the suffering is unimaginable.

It won't win, but Zhao Kuo's goal is not to win.

As long as the Qin army can't go north, the battle will be won.

"Kill!" Who knows who yelled again, and the killing sound was everywhere, and countless people fell to the ground again.

Bai Qi stood on the high ground of the barracks, overlooking the Zhao Jun barracks in the distance below.

"Are they still going to fight?"

"Yes." An adjutant said: "At present, they have no intention of surrendering. It seems that Zhao Kuo is holding back."

"A dying prey wants to hurt the hunter..."

Bai Qi folded his hands behind his back, turned and left.

Zhao Kuo is indeed a good young talent, and it will be more difficult to fight this battle in the hands of that old fellow Lian Po.

It's not just Qin and Zhao who are staring at this battle, the other "tiger wolves" are all watching here.If the Qin army is serious, it will be very difficult to attack Zhao.

Qin's offensive retreated temporarily.

In the dilapidated barracks, there were faint lights of fire.There are few smokes rising from the kitchen, cooking food that is hardly recognizable as food.

In the past few days, Zhao Guo's military rations were divided into three portions, but it was still not enough for everyone.

"General, there is not much ration left." The earth-colored soldier sat beside Zhao Kuo, took a sip of the muddy soup, and said, looking around.

Zhao Kuo paused while drinking the "soup": "How long can it last?"

"No matter how much you save, you can only eat for a day and a half." The soldier said carefully and softly.

If the army is about to run out of food, if the soldiers hear it, it will easily cause mutiny, so you must be careful.

"Where are the generals? Has there been any talk in the battalion these days? About reinforcements." Zhao Kuo asked with a low voice.

"Yes." The soldier swallowed, "At first some people doubted whether the reinforcements would really come. There were also some small-scale mutinies, but they were all suppressed in time."

He swallowed the dry biscuit in his hand.

Zhao Kuo's eyes were tired, but he was firm: "Keep guarding."

The soldier nodded and left.

Zhao Kuo sat on the spot, holding the dry biscuits in his hand and didn't finish eating, and put the remaining half in his arms.

The matter of reinforcements was about to be seen, and the morale of the army was defeated much faster than he imagined.

Not surprisingly, his next arrangement should continue.

Thinking of this, Zhao Kuo moved his chapped lips and stared blankly at the ground.

Chapter 48: Underdogs must win

On the winding mountain road, Gu Nan was wearing armor and stopped on Brother Hei.

Nian Duan's face was reddish, and he sat in front of her with his horse's head half in his arms.

Feeling that Gu Nan stopped, he turned his head, saw Gu Nan's appearance, and jumped off the horse with his mouth curled up.

"I'll send it here." Gu Nan pulled Brother Hei's reins: "Go all the way well, avoid mountain roads, and don't ask people to arrest you again."

"Do you think there are people like you in this world?" Nian Duan said.

Gu Nan raised his eyebrows, it was indeed they who arrested him, but he didn't participate either...

But in the end it was my own fault, Gu Nan didn't speak.

Nian Duan took two steps towards the mountain road, but turned around again: "Hey, I'm leaving, do you have anything to say?"

I was afraid of what to say, and you kept talking...

Gu Nan touched her nose helplessly, jumped off the horse, took off the long sword from her waist and threw it into Nian Duan's arms.

"Keep it on the road for self-defense."

After speaking, he took Brother Hei's rein and left.

In the past, she would chat with Nian Duan, but now she is a little scared, afraid of having some old friends.

Had to leave in a hurry.

Holding the long sword in his arms, Nian Duan snorted: "It's my girl who didn't save you in vain."

He looked up and said, "It's another sword. Do all swordsmen in this world look like this?"
