Chapter 183 Great victory! Victory report returned to Xianyang! Ying Zheng was excited!
Looking at the raging fire in Yanggao City.
In Long Zhang's opinion.
This must be Wei Wuji's plan.
Hundreds of thousands of Qin troops will be destroyed in Yanggao City and burned to ashes.
"Pass on this general's order."
"The Qin army has been burned by the flames."
"Follow me and bypass Yanggao and attack the Qin army camp directly."
"Defeat Qin in one fell swoop." Long Zhang shouted loudly.
"I will follow your orders."
Many Wei generals responded one after another.
But just as Long Zhang finished speaking.
Boom, boom, boom! The earth suddenly began to tremble.
"Report."
"Your Highness, General Long."
"Qin army, Qin cavalry is attacking from the rear."
A scout came running to report in panic.
"What?"
Long Zhang's face changed and he looked back suddenly.
Although they were far apart, the shaking of the earth and the countless black-armored Qin cavalry charging towards their army under the rising sun almost blocked the entire road behind them.
They have no way to retreat.
This moment.
Long Zhang, who was originally happy that he had burned hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, turned pale.
He hadn't expected this to happen.
Qin cavalry of 100,000.
Even if he still had 50,000 elite troops preserved at this moment, it would be of no avail.
"Defense in the form of a fish scale formation."
"Break out to the south."
In just a blink of an eye, Long Zhang made the decision and shouted loudly immediately.
The formation of the 50,000 Wei troops changed immediately, with the entire army forming a battle array, with archers in the back and spearmen in the front.
As the Wei army's formation changed.
The footsteps of the cavalry from the rear were getting louder and louder.
Zhang Han, the main general, was leading the way.
Holding a spear.
When the Wei army was already within the range of the Qin arrows, Zhang Han shouted, "Riders and archers, make a detour!"
"Wind, wind, wind."
The 100,000 Qin cavalry shouted fiercely, quickly spread out their formation, and dispersed to surround the enemy.
Eighty to ninety percent of them were former Zhao border troops.
But now they have become the criminal army of the Qin Dynasty.
Looking at the Wei army ahead was like looking at prey for every Qin cavalryman.
For the elite soldiers, killing the enemy means achieving success.
For the convict army, killing the enemy meant escaping slavery.
Fifty thousand Wei troops seemed not enough to be divided up.
The wind roared and fell.
All the Qin cavalry put down their spears and raised their bows and arrows. With the sound of bowstrings trembling, countless arrows were shot towards the Wei army formation.
“Ah…ah…”
Arrows flew everywhere.
Countless Wei soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
But it’s far from over.
The horse-riding and arrow-shooting continued.
In the past, the Zhao State was so famous for its Hu clothing, horse riding and archery that no one could match it.
Now they have completely turned into a powerful weapon of the Qin Dynasty. They ride and shoot wildly, and even if they do not get close to the Wei army, the rain of arrows will kill countless Wei soldiers.
"Zhao Hufu Riding and Shooting."
Long Zhang gritted his teeth, a trace of fear on his face.
As a general of Wei State, how could he not know that this was the Hu clothing and cavalry shooting that made Zhao State's cavalry so successful in all its battles.
"How could these Zhao surrendered soldiers really work for Qin?"
"Are they crazy?" Long Zhang was extremely confused.
But at this moment.
The Qin cavalry around them were frantically detouring, with no intention of getting close, as if they were going to destroy them with a rain of arrows.
"Dismantle the defensive formation and break out in formation."
Long Zhang shouted loudly.
The Wei army changed its formation, trampling on the corpses of their comrades.
“Break through.”
Long Zhang swung his sword.
The Wei army quickly dispersed and rushed to the south.
Want to break through.
"Outflanking."
Zhang Han commanded his Qin cavalry with ease, widened the distance between them and the Wei army, and continued to shoot arrows.
Just as the Wei army approached ten feet under the rain of countless arrows.
"kill!"
Zhang Han did not hesitate at all and led his cavalry to charge.
Cavalry encirclement and suppression.
The results are obvious.
As time goes by.
These 50,000 Wei troops were like meat on a chopping board and were slaughtered crazily by the Qin cavalry.
Even the Wei army who shouted to surrender had no chance to survive.
Every Qin cavalryman was killing crazily and killing the enemies madly.
Until the sky was completely bright and the sun was high in the sky.
The very center of the Qin cavalry encirclement.
Long Zhang, some of his generals, and some of his personal guards were trapped inside.
Of the 50,000-strong army, less than a thousand are left alive.
Surrounded by these 100,000 cavalrymen, it is almost impossible to escape.
The entire Yanggao City was littered with corpses.
It's even more cruel than in the city.
Zhang Han rode slowly towards them, holding a blood-stained spear in his hand.
"Dragon Seal."
"You lose."
Zhang Han looked down at Long Zhang.
"Qin's chief general, Zhang Han."
Long Zhang stared at Zhang Han and recognized him at a glance.
once Upon a time.
When Zhao Feng was the deputy general, his reputation was already known, and he became the main general later.
After Zhao Feng's reputation spread, everyone knew that Zhao Feng had two powerful generals under his command, one was Zhang Han and the other was Tu Sui.
"It seems that you know a lot about my Wu'an Camp." Zhang Han smiled faintly.
Long Zhang looked at the Qin cavalry who were watching him with eager eyes, each of them had a burning look in his eyes, as if he wanted to tear them into pieces.
But then.
Long Zhang suddenly smiled: "Indeed, I lost."
“But you didn’t win either.”
"Although your Wu'an Camp's cavalry is still there, the infantry must have been reduced to ashes along with Yanggao City."
"And Zhao Feng."
"Isn't he known as the undefeated god of war?"
"Today he died at the hands of my Long Zhang. Even if Long Zhang dies today, Zhao Feng will be buried with me, as will hundreds of thousands of Qin soldiers. It's worth it."
"One day my name will be recorded in history books."
"Hahaha……"
Speaking of.
Long Zhang burst into laughter.
He was still very satisfied with the outcome of this battle.
But at this moment.
"Yeah?"
A sudden voice was heard from the Qin army formation.
I saw many Qin cavalry dispersing.
A chariot slowly drove towards here.
Long Zhang's face changed and he looked over immediately.
"Who are you?"
Long Zhang stared at the person who came, frowning: "Zhao Feng?"
"how?"
"Do you think it's strange to see me?" Zhao Feng smiled faintly.
"impossible."
"You have clearly already charged into the city, and were at the forefront. How could you possibly come out alive?" Long Zhang looked at him in horror, somewhat unable to believe it.
He had always thought that Zhao Feng would die in the sea of fire, but now that Zhao Feng appeared alive, his momentum of leaving his name in history was completely shattered.
"Burn the city with fire, it is indeed a good strategy."
"It's just that you are too confident."
"Do you really think that I, Zhao Feng, don't know how to advance or retreat?"
"The moment you burned the city, I led my warriors out of Yanggao City."
"All those burned to death in this city are soldiers from your Wei State." Zhao Feng said with a sneer.
As soon as these words fell.
Such as being struck by lightning.
Long Zhang almost fell off his horse.
"impossible."
"That's impossible."
"How could you possibly lead the army to retreat?" Long Zhang's eyes showed reluctance.
This burning of the city not only failed to keep Zhao Feng and the Qin army, but instead burned down nearly 100,000 Wei troops in the city.
It's like shooting oneself in the foot.
Zhao Feng didn't intend to say much. He slowly raised his hand and held up the Longquan in his hand.
"Leave no one behind."
Four cold words came out of Zhao Feng's mouth.
Just a moment.
The Qin cavalry, who had been unable to hold back any longer, all rushed out.
"Zhao Feng."
"Fight to the death."
Long Zhang roared and rode his horse towards Zhao Feng.
See his figure.
Zhao Feng had an extra sharp arrow in his hand.
With the blessing of true energy, he waved his hand casually.
Under Zhao Feng's terrifying power, the arrow was like being shot from a strong bow, breaking through the air in an instant.
With a "puff" sound.
The powerful force of the arrow directly pierced through the armor on Long Zhang's chest, piercing Long Zhang in an instant.
"Kill the general of Wei State and pick up 100 points of all attributes." A prompt appeared on the panel.
Follow closely.
Many Qin cavalry rushed forward and directly wiped out all the remaining Wei troops.
Battle of Yanggao City.
It took less than three days.
It's over.
On the chariot.
Zhao Feng stood majestically, looking around at the Qin cavalry soldiers around him: "Soldiers."
With the blessing of true energy, a loud shout was given.
The eyes of everyone around were focused.
"A battle today."
"Beautiful kill."
"now."
"I will also fulfill my promise to all the soldiers in the army." Zhao Feng said loudly.
The words spread as the whole army repeated them.
"Sima of the Central Army." Zhao Feng shouted in a powerful voice.
"Here." Kuai Pu rode over immediately.
"Count the enemy kills as quickly as possible."
"In our Wu'an Camp, any elite soldier who kills the enemy will be promoted according to his merit. Any prisoner who kills the enemy will be pardoned from his slavery and become an ordinary soldier of the Great Qin, enjoying the annual salary of a soldier without a title. Any prisoner who kills more than six enemies will be promoted to the first level of title."
“This matter.”
"Implement it as soon as possible." Zhao Feng shouted.
"I obey your command." Kuai Pu replied loudly.
And after Zhao Feng's voice fell.
All the prisoners in the cavalry battalion had excited looks on their faces, especially those who had successfully killed and beheaded the enemy.
They were freed from slavery and became ordinary soldiers of the Qin Dynasty, which meant that they were human again.
"The general is mighty."
"The general is mighty."
"I will follow the general till death... I will follow him till death..."
Countless prisoners soldiers raised their weapons and shouted loudly.
This moment.
It is enough to make all the prisoners' worries disappear and return to their original aspirations.
The old warrior smiled at the excitement of the criminal army and was used to it.
because.
Many of them were also former convicts, and they had experienced this kind of excitement.
This is like a person sentenced to death being directly pardoned.
Being a slave is almost the same as being sentenced to death, except that slaves live longer and suffer more, while being executed is quicker.
"Zhang Han."
Zhao Feng said in a powerful voice.
"I am here." Zhang Han responded immediately.
"Yanggao City has been breached, and one of Wei's defense lines has collapsed."
"Almost all of the 150,000-man army was wiped out."
"Our army should seize the opportunity and strike."
"I order you to lead the cavalry southward at the fastest speed. Take the cities you encounter while the Wei army is still unaware of the news."
"The armor on the corpses of the Wei army can all be used."
"This, there is no need for me to say more, right?" Zhao Feng said in a deep voice.
Zhang Han took one look at the corpses of the Wei army scattered all over the ground and immediately understood what was going on.
"I understand." Zhang Han responded immediately.
"Send the order to Tu Sui and Li You."
"Divide the troops and move according to the original attack route."
"The three main camps of the large camp will be divided into three routes and attack the Wei capital as quickly as possible." Zhao Feng said immediately.
"I will pass the order immediately." Zhang Ming responded immediately.
He immediately arranged for his personal guards to pass on the message.
"Kuai Sima."
"Quickly compile the battle report and report it to Xianyang immediately."
"Your Majesty must have been waiting for this great victory for a long time." Zhao Feng looked at Kuai Pu and smiled again.
"Yes." Kuai Pu also looked excited.
immediately.
Zhao Feng waved his hand.
The guards immediately drove away in the chariot.
"All soldiers, listen to my orders."
"Take off all the uniforms and armor of the Wei army."
"And finish off all the corpses."
"In this battle, no one will be left alive," Zhang Han ordered loudly.
"I will follow your orders."
Countless sharp warriors responded immediately.
…
Wei State, Heluo City!
"attack!"
Huan Yi was in the center of the army, directing the siege.
Countless Qin warriors attacked the city one after another.
A siege battle, a battle to pile up lives, this is all about filling up with lives.
Even though countless rocks fell and countless arrows were fired, the Wei army's defense remained unbreakable.
Wei Wuji had been planning for the past two years. Naturally, he had studied Zhao Feng stationed in Yunzhong and Qin's veteran general Huan Yi very thoroughly and knew how to fight them.
Heluo City is not only guarded by the generals selected by Wei Wuji, but now he is also visiting the city in person.
"Your Majesty."
"The Qin army's attack is fierce. With our army's manpower and combat power, it is impossible to hold on."
"Perhaps, we really have no choice but to adopt that plan." Pang Wu said seriously.
Wei Wuji calmly raised his head and glanced at the attacking Qin army, then said, "General Pang Wu."
"Please give your orders, Your Majesty." Pang Wu said immediately.
"One month."
Wei Wuji raised a finger and said very seriously: "I only want you to hold on for a month. After a month, carry out that plan and both sides will perish together."
"I will do my best." Pang Wu bowed immediately.
Wei Wuji shook his head: "I don't want you to do your best, but you must hold on."
"This battle."
"The Qin State dispatched two large camps."
"Hangu is the old camp of the Qin State. In the past, the five countries joined forces to attack Qin. The army had more than one million people, but they were blocked by the 300,000 troops of Hangu. With only one camp to stop five countries, you can imagine the combat effectiveness of the Hangu camp. And Huan Yi is an old veteran who has experienced hundreds of battles. If we want to lure him into the city, we have to make him believe that our army can no longer hold on, and it is not intentional."
"Only in this way can we annihilate the Hangu camp."
"certainly."
"The more critical issue is the war in the north. If we want to protect the Great Wei, we must defeat an army. The Wu'an Camp is our chance."
"As long as we cherish this month, perhaps Long Zhang can destroy the Wuan camp with a strategy of destroying both sides and march north in one fell swoop."
"The crisis of Qin can be resolved." Wei Wuji said in a deep voice.
It can be seen from this.
This was Wei Wuji's final strategy for resisting Qin after much thought.
If he won, the Wei State would be able to defeat the Qin army and survive.
This was his final desperate struggle.
"Your Majesty."
"Is Zhao Feng really that easy to deal with?" Pang Wu asked hesitantly.
"Compared to Huan Yi, Zhao Feng might be easier to deal with."
"My Great Wei has no choice anymore." Wei Wuji sighed.
At this time!
A guard came over and said, "Your Majesty, everything is ready."
"General Pang."
"Defend Heluo with all your strength for a month without losing it."
"I am ready to return to the capital." Wei Wuji said in a deep voice.
"Now everything is under the arrangement of His Majesty. What else does His Majesty want to arrange?" Pang Wu asked in surprise.
Wei Wuji shook his head and said, "General Pang, Heluo City is now in your hands."
After saying.
Wei Wuji turned around and left.
In his heart, he sighed: "If my plan fails, in the end, I can only hold on to Daliang. I hope it will work!"
"Farewell, Your Majesty." Pang Wu bowed and watched Wei Wuji leave.
Then.
"Pass on this general's order."
"Defend with all your strength."
"We must not let the Qin army break into the city." Pang Wu shouted loudly.
…
Qin capital Xianyang!
The imperial court hall!
The court meeting began.
Ying Zheng's eyes fell on Wei Liao: "Have any battle reports been sent back?"
"Return to the King."
"From the perspective of time."
"My Great Qin has only been attacking for less than half a month."
"Wei Wuji has deployed heavy troops to defend the border. It may take some time to achieve results."
"But please rest assured, Your Majesty."
"With the Hangu Pass and Wu'an Camp, we will surely destroy Wei."
"The national strength of my Great Qin is not something that the current Wei State can contend with." Wei Liao raised the imperial hu and said confidently.
"What the Shaofu said is absolutely right."
"After two years of recuperation, the treasury of our Great Qin is full. Within a year, we will surely destroy Wei."
"With General Huan Yi leading the Hangu camp, the Wei army will never be able to contend with this."
"Now I have already completed the allocation of grain and grass from various places, and handed it over to the county governors to allocate young and strong people for transportation. There will be no loss."
"I believe that Your Majesty will hear the good news soon." Wang Wan said with a smile.
"I second the motion."
"We are united in our great Qin, so the mere State of Wei is nothing to worry about."
"In the past, five countries joined forces to attack our Great Qin, and General Huan Yi tried his best to stop the five countries from attacking. This battle will surely show our glory again." Wei Zhuang immediately smiled.
From the words of Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang, they were all praising Huan Yi, but they did not mention Zhao Feng at all.
Obviously, this also carries a sense of flattery and criticism.
At this moment, we should try our best to push Huan Yi forward, and wait for Huan Yi to be the first to break through the border. Then the credit will belong to Huan Yi. Even if Zhao Feng breaks the city later, his military achievement will not be as good as Huan Yi.
This is naturally what they are planning.
"Two Prime Ministers."
“Everything is not guaranteed.”
"General Zhao Feng has been victorious in every battle since he joined the army, but you two have been praising General Huan Yi. Do you think General Zhao Feng is incapable of breaking through the border?" Hu Hai said with some sarcasm.
"Mr. Eighteen, you are too kind."
"Although General Zhao Feng has not been defeated, he is still too young after all."
"Compared with General Huan Yi, General Zhao Feng is still slightly inferior." Wang Wan said with a determined look.
"good."
"That's how General Huan Yi leads his troops."
"General Zhao Feng is still not good enough after all." Wei Zhuang also nodded immediately.
There were also many voices of agreement in the court.
"The two prime ministers are indeed very convincing."
"The results of the battle have not yet been announced, so everything is still uncertain." Li Si said slowly.
Originally, according to Li Si's previous temperament, he might not speak at this moment, but his son was also in the Wuan camp, so he naturally had to speak up to refute.
Naturally, he also saw the purpose of Wang Wan and others.
Just at this moment! "Report."
"Urgent report from Wu'an Camp."
"Great victory!"
An expedited messenger came running in from outside the hall, looking extremely excited.
"Victory report from Wu'an Camp?"
When they heard the word "great victory", all the ministers in the court were shocked.
The expressions of Wang Wan and Wei Zhuang, who had been flattering just now, changed slightly.
"Two Prime Ministers."
"It is said that it is unspeakable."
"Now it is the Wu'an camp that has first reported the victory." Li Si said with a sarcastic tone.
To this.
Wang Wan and the other two naturally did not say anything else.
The word "great victory".
The meaning is already clear.
On a high position.
An expected smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face.
"Show it up!"
Ying Zheng shouted in a mighty voice.
Zhao Gao immediately walked quickly into the hall.
The victory report was presented to Ying Zheng.
When he saw the contents of the report, Ying Zheng could no longer hide the smile on his face.
"Okay, okay, okay."
"Zhao Feng, you didn't disappoint me."
"The 150,000 troops deployed by Wei State in Yanggao City were overthrown in one day!" Ying Zheng laughed and looked down at the court.
You can tell how excited Ying Zheng is from the smile on his face.
Then.
Ying Zheng waved his hand and handed the report to Zhao Gao: "Read it to the ministers and inspire our court!"
