The villain system of Mingyue in Qin Dynasty
Chapter 370 Defeated three armies in a row and crossed the White Horse southward
The sun rises from the sky, the morning light shines, the halo is thin, and the earth is in chaos.
Zhang Han stood on top of the ruins, holding a sword with one hand, panting. He exhaled cold air between his breaths, regaining his strength. Even though he was highly cultivated, after a night of fierce fighting, Zhang Han was still exhausted at this moment.
Zhang Han looked back and saw that his eyes were full of charred black bodies and corpses scattered all over the place, mottled with all kinds of gray colors, and it was extremely gloomy.
Last night, 10,000 Qin soldiers fought hard and defeated the 100,000 Qi and Wei coalition forces. Now the rebels are scattered, and Qin generals Su Jiao and She Jian are leading the army to hunt down the remnants of the rebels.
After winning such a major victory, Zhang Han didn't feel any joy in his heart. In the battle last night, although the Qin army severely damaged the rebels, its own losses were also huge.
Ten thousand dead soldiers, not even one out of ten. Now, among the corpses everywhere, the remaining dead soldiers in black are very conspicuous. When the blood subsided and the murderous intent subsided, these people completely lost the indomitable momentum they had last night and fell limply to the ground, smiling and crying, and their feelings were hard to understand. Zhang Han closed his eyes and didn't pay attention, and he didn't have time to pay attention.
A fast horse approached, causing a din on this secluded battlefield. The fiery red battle armor was conspicuous, attracting the attention of the civilians and soldiers who were cleaning up the battlefield. The knight on the war horse quickly came to Zhang Han's side, bowed and said: "General!"
Zhang Han opened his eyes and said, "Have reinforcements from Taiyuan and other places arrived?"
The reason why Zhang Han did not personally lead his troops south to pursue him was to wait for the reinforcements to arrive from Taiyuan and other places.
"Reporting back to the general, the 20,000 cavalry of Yunzhong County in Taiyuan have been reorganized. Following your Majesty's order, the front army has left the ford, and is still thirty miles away from Handan. The remaining armies are gathering towards Handan from various places. It is expected to be four to five days can be completely integrated.”
"Let him arrive at the foot of Handan City in an hour, rest for half a day, and then follow my general to go south to Jipu to quell the chaos."
"Yes!" The knight raised his hand, got on his horse, and turned back.
……..
In the wilderness, King Jiu of Wei's hair was in a messy bun, and his royal clothes were damaged in many places. He was in a very embarrassed state.
At this moment, he was sitting on the rock with the support of the guards around him, his face covered with charred dust. Wei Wangjiu didn't have time to deal with his description. Looking at the five or six guards around him, a sad color appeared in his heart.
I think back on that day when he put on the king's robe, reestablished the state of Wei, led an army of 20,000, and marched north to Zhao. How high-spirited he was.
And all of this was burned to the ground by Zhang Han in that night. Nowadays, Wei Wang Jiu only has these few loyal guards around him. The remaining ones fled and scattered, and the 20,000-strong army withered away.
"Your Majesty, water!"
A guard fetched water from nowhere, carried it in a bag, and delivered it to King Jiu of Wei.
Wei Wangjiu looked at the clear spring water in his pocket, and then at the guards with cracked lips and teeth around him, sighed, and said, "Give water to everyone!"
"Your Majesty!" The guard was still hesitating. Wei Wang Jiu waved his hand and said, "Okay, if you continue to hesitate, there won't be much water left."
Looking at the dripping water, the guard finally obeyed Wei Wang Jiu's order.
After everyone finished drinking water, in the distance, dozens of Qin soldiers suddenly appeared in everyone's field of vision, gathering here from all directions. Obviously, these dozens of Qin soldiers had already discovered Wei Wang Jiu, but instead of alerting him, they followed quietly and ambushed Wei Wang Jiu at this intersection, intending to capture Wei Wang Jiu alive.
"No! Your Majesty, the Qin soldiers are chasing us! Your Majesty, let's run away!"
"Escape?"
Wei Wangjiu took a look at the surrounding mountains and fields, which were very dark and deserted. In the woods and fields, there are figures of the Qin army.
Where else can you escape?
Wei Wangjiu stood up, sighed deeply, and said: "I led 20,000 troops to the north of Zhao. I was waiting for success and established the hegemony of Wei. But what?! What! Tell Wei Bao that Wei has been handed over to him."
With that said, Wei Wangjiu drew his sword and wanted to kill himself, but was stopped by the guards beside him.
"Your Majesty, no, we are not at the end of the road yet!"
"I am the king of Wei. If I were captured alive by the Qin army and put in shackles and chains, how could I have the face to see the previous kings of Wei again under the Nine Springs?" Wei Wang Jiu pushed away the guard who blocked him and was about to swing his sword. .
There was a sudden roar in the forest, and then, arrows rained down from the sky, killing dozens of Qin soldiers who surrounded Wei Wang Jiu one by one.
Wei Wang Jiu's hand holding the sword hilt stopped stiffly. Amidst cheers, Wei Wang Jiu's general Zhou Shi ran from the mountains to him.
At this moment, Wei Wangjiu's hand was still very stiff and it was difficult to put it down. Extremely sad but happy, two drops of tears appeared in the dry corners of Wei Wangjiu's eyes.
The sword fell from his hand. Wei Wang Jiu grabbed the shoulder of General Zhou Shi who was kneeling in front of him and said, "It's great that you are still alive!"
Zhou Shi was also filled with emotion and said in his hands: "The general is incompetent and has caused this great humiliation to my king. Please forgive me."
"What is the general's crime?" Wei Wangjiu helped him up and asked, "How is the war situation now?"
After hearing what Wei Wang Jiu said, Zhou Shi also sighed and said: "We were defeated, and most of the Qi army was destroyed. King Qi was also killed by Zhang Han, and the general gathered the defeated army along the way. Now he has two thousand soldiers, who can protect him." The king returns south."
"Our army was defeated in this battle. Zhang Han will definitely not let us go. What about the Qin army's pursuit?"
"In the end, I will find out from the mouths of the skirmishers that Qin General Su Jiao will lead an army south to pursue us, and She Jian will lead an army to help Julu."
"What about Zhang Han?" Wei Wangjiu asked eagerly.
"No news!"
After hearing this, Wei Wang Jiu hesitated in his heart. At this moment, no news is the worst news. As the commander-in-chief of the Qin Army and the general who conquered the east, how could Zhang Han not make any movement at this critical moment?
King Jiu of Wei had a sad look on his face, but Zhou Shi couldn't see it, so he comforted him and said: "Your Majesty, this place is still under the Qin army's front. It is not advisable to stay for a long time. It is better to retreat as soon as possible."
"That's right. Where does this place lead to?"
"You can go down to Fanyang in the south, and you can also go to Jingpu. I wonder where the king is going?" Zhou Shi asked.
The distance from here to the two places is not much different. However, Fanyang is close to Baima Road and is still under the control of the coalition of princes. As long as they pass Baimajin, they can smoothly return to Linji, the capital of Wei.
Wei Jiu pondered for a while and asked, "Is General Jipu the general of Chu, Xiang Ta?"
"Exactly, Chu general Xiang Ta led eight thousand troops to garrison at Jipu."
Wei Wangjiu nodded and said: "It's not too late. At this moment, Xiang Tatou should not have received the report of our army's defeat. If the Qin army makes a surprise attack, the consequences will be unpredictable. We will rush to Jipu immediately." "Yes, Your Majesty! "
Zhou Shi led two thousand defeated soldiers to escort Wei Wang Jiu to Jipu. But they ran all night, and at dawn on the second day, they saw the defeated Chu army all over the long road.
Among the crowd, the one resting against the big tree was obviously Chu General Xiang Taida.
Xiang is very young and very talented. The Xiang clan has made war generals in every dynasty, but Xiang is one of the few who is proficient in internal affairs. Otherwise, he would not have led an army alone and stationed his troops in a strategic place like Jipu.
Seeing the friendly flags, the Chu army did not stop them. In fact, they are exhausted at this moment, so even if they try to stop them, there will be no good effect.
Wei Wangjiu came directly to Xiang Ta and asked, "General, why are you here?"
Although both of them were embarrassed, Wei Jiu was still very surprised. Jipu has eight thousand troops. Even if the Qin army attacks, it is impossible to be defeated so quickly and miserably?
Xiang Taitai supported the tree trunk with both hands, stood up with difficulty, and said with cupped hands, "I have met the King of Wei."
After saluting, Xiang Tat said: "The day before yesterday, Zhang Han led thousands of cavalry to attack my camp at night. I was caught off guard and my eight thousand soldiers suffered heavy casualties. Fortunately, the soldiers used their lives to stop Zhang Han and I escaped."
Wei Wangjiu was puzzled. With only a few thousand horses, even a surprise attack would not defeat Xiang Tao so miserably!
You must know that Jipu is a place for storing grain, and all supplies must pass through there. Xiang Ta is a delicate person, how could he not be heavily guarded?
Xiang Taitai seemed to see Wei Wang Jiu's doubts and explained: "This Qin army is different from the previous cavalry armies. Not only are the horses they ride extremely fierce, but in the wilderness, the Qin army's cavalry crushed wolf bones with one hoof. Moreover, their horse equipment is also unique, and their fighting methods are flexible and diverse. I remember that when Yingzi Yi was still the prince, he led 20,000 horses out of the fortress. After that, this army guarded Taiyuan and other places, and there was no news. This time, Zhang Han's The leader should be this cavalry army."
Wei Wang Jiu nodded and said: "Now that the thorns have been lost, and the Zhao army's food and grass in Julu have been cut off in half, it will be a matter of time before the news of defeat comes. We'd better go to Fanyang immediately!"
"I'm worried it's more than that." Xiang Ta said in a deep tone, "That day in Nanyang, Qin general Han Xin led an army of 10,000 and forced Shao Yu back. The cavalry he led was the same as the cavalry in Zhao. Afterwards, we speculated These 10,000 cavalry were already the elite of the Qin army, so I didn’t think much more about it. But as we can see now, if there are really 20,000 such cavalry in Zhao Di, Guandong is thousands of miles of fertile land and has a thorough water network. Zhang Han led it This cavalry army goes south, and within a few days, it can move six to seven hundred miles and cut off the coalition's food routes. Once the food routes are disturbed, Xingyang's 200,000-strong army will be in danger!"
Xiang Ta is very thoughtful and has already predicted the future war situation from last night's battle. After hearing what Xiang Taida said, Wei Wang Jiu's mind changed rapidly. The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became. He said in panic: "No, if the 100,000 Qin troops from Zhao land go south again, I'm afraid it will be a disaster for all the countries." If it survives, the country will be restored to its ruins."
After Wei Wang Jiu finished speaking, the two of them were silent for a while.
Zhou Shi stood aside and said with his hands: "Your Majesty, no matter what happens in the future, the Qin army may be chasing us at any moment, so we should retreat quickly."
"That's right." Wei Wangjiu gritted his teeth and said, "General, it's better for us to rush to Fanyang immediately. Zhang Han's Qin army is marching so fast, if it takes a few more days, Fanyang will not be able to escape. What a disaster!"
"What the king said is that we should return to Fanyang immediately. It is important to defend the Qin army." Xiang Ta said.
……….
On Guangwu Mountain.
A woman stands alone on a solitary peak, standing in the wind, her clothes fluttering, she is Wangyou.
"Junior sister!"
The tall man came behind Wangyou and said hello.
Wangyou turned around, looked at the man, and said, "Senior Brother Wangsi, you are also here in Xingyang!" "Junior Sister has a mission, and I will definitely complete it." Wangsi said.
"Thank you, senior brother. The reward I promised to senior brother will definitely be given to senior brother." Wangyou said with a smile.
Following these words, the atmosphere between the two became stagnant for a while. Wangyou's words inadvertently made Wangsi feel a layer of separation.
"Junior sister, you know I didn't help you just for the reward."
"I know!" Wangyou nodded lightly and said, "But at this moment, I can't give you anything except a reward."
"Junior sister, it's been so long. Are you still unable to let go?" Wangsi looked at the indifferent Wangyou and asked.
"I have put down my hatred, otherwise Master would not let me come out." Wangyou said with a slightly calmer expression.
"Yes, you have let go of your hatred. But what about the others?"
Wangsi's words came back to his ears, but Wangyou waved his sleeves, turned around, and no longer faced Wangsi.
"Junior sister!"
Wangsi stretched out his hand, only a few feet away from touching Wangyou's sleeve. But he finally put down his hand, shook his head and sighed.
"Oh no!"
In the sky, the Mo family's mechanism Suzaku was flying in the sky, quickly approaching the mountain peak, and the people on top shouted loudly, attracting the attention of the two people on the mountain peak.
Wangle and Wangqiao jumped down from the top and came to the two of them, saying: "Failed, defeated!"
Wangyou frowned slightly and asked, "What failed!"
"They're all defeated!" Wangle, as the Mangeidong of Renzong, is responsible for intelligence work just like Robber Zhi. At this moment, with the help of the Mo family's mechanism Suzaku, they quickly penetrated the battle ahead. "The armies of Qi, Wei, and Zhao have all been defeated!"
"This is impossible!" Wangyou said doubtfully: "The Qin army in Zhao's country only has one hundred thousand people. Even if Zhang Han is a famous general in the world, it is impossible for him to defeat the armies of Qi, Wei, and Zhao in such a short period of time. That is There are 150,000 people!"
Wangsi looked at Wangyou and sorted out the authenticity of the news as he spoke, as if his thoughts were all in it.
"Could it be that the Great Wall border troops went south?"
"No!" Wangle shook his head and said, "It's the Qin cavalry from Taiyuan, with 20,000 cavalry. Zhang Han first defeated the Qi and Wei forces in Handan with great force, killed the king of Qi, and then attacked Quliang and led his troops , Julu, cut off the food route of Julu Zhao army, Zhang Er and Chen Yu could only return along the original road, and were chased by the Qin army, suffering heavy losses along the way. Wei Wang Jiu and Chu General Xiang Ta retreated to Fanyang first, They defended the White Horse, but they were unable to resist Zhang Han's front. Now they retreated to Linji, preparing to ask for help from various princes. I'm afraid it won't be long before the Qin army in Zhao will cross the river south."
"Ying Ziyi! So this is what you had in mind all along?" Wangyou bit his teeth lightly, his indigo was slightly red, he didn't know whether he was angry or too excited. "He was demoted to guard Yunzhong in the Ming Dynasty, secretly managed Taiyuan, Mayi, and Yunzhong, and trained 20,000 horsemen. Is it just for this moment?"
"Senior sister really understands me!"
The familiar voice came, and Wangyou and Wangqiao's emotions were pulled to the extreme.
