I’m The King Chapter 684: : Why is it too urgent to fry with the same root (6)
Chapter six hundred and eighty-four: Why is it too urgent to fry the same root (6)
It has been a while since Li Mingjun moved to Nanzhang, but Qin Lei can't hold on, so he is not in a hurry to attack. As long as the coach Zhao Qi wins Xiling, Nanzhang will become a water without a source, a tree without roots, In the past two days, he has dispatched troops to help Hu Liang maintain the food roads and ensure that the supply of the army besieging Xiling is safe. , with you all the way!
It is strange to say that when his army came out these few days, those Daijun soldiers and civilians who had been attacking Liangdao by ecstasy suddenly disappeared without a trace. smell, but what exactly is this anxiety, but he can't find out the root of it, so he can't help but raise his vigilance.
It wasn't until the sentry came to report that Qin Lei from Nanzhang suddenly came out and attacked his army on his own initiative. Then he seemed to realize that the news of Xiling's emergency had reached Nanzhang. Qin Lei couldn't sit still any longer, so he could only take the initiative to attack.
As for the disobedient people who attacked the grain road, they probably also knew that Xiling City was about to be lost, so they refrained from their actions and wanted to become obedient citizens of Da Zhao.
"It's too late to think of this at this time!" Li Mingjun snorted: "After the war, let's settle accounts after the autumn. , just in time.”
With a firm mind, Li Mingjun immediately beat the drums to raise his account and gathered all the generals.
"Immediately send an order to the people who are helping to maintain the two roads to gather in Nanzhang. When the headquarters of our Chinese army is fighting fiercely with the Nanzhang army, they will penetrate from both sides and defeat the enemy."
"The Chinese army is assembled, and I will go to the front line in person to defeat Qin Lei in one fell swoop."
With the sound of drums and horns, thousands of Zhao troops poured out from the camp. Not long after they formed their formation, they saw a group of Nanzhang troops appearing from a distance not far ahead.
Zhao General Wu Quan has been very unhappy these days. He was ordered by Li Mingjun to lead two thousand troops from his headquarters to assist Hu Liang in maintaining the grain road from Hefeng to Nanzhang. Not even a traitor's hair was caught, so the credit is naturally not there, but the whole team is exhausted. Compared with the well-equipped camp, the life outside is naturally miserable. It is not bad to be able to set up a firewood to boil some snow water while eating cold and hard steamed buns. The miserable soldiers also complained. It wasn't until he finally received Li Mingjun's order to rush to Nanzhang that he breathed a sigh of relief. The old turtle Qin Lei who was shrunk in Nanzhang finally couldn't help poking his head out, knocked off his protruding head, and took In Nanzhang, their hard days are over.
He ordered the troops to hurry on their way. Wu Quan just wanted to end this war that made him very angry. Hurry up and finish the fight. Have a happy new year with your family.
In Wu Quan's view, there was no suspense in this battle. The most troublesome thing in the past was that the Nanzhang soldiers stayed behind closed doors. The battle at Hefeng was enough to alert people, but since Qin Lei led his troops out, the outcome of this battle was already doomed.
Similar to the general Li Mingjun, Wu Quan believed that Qin Lei's sudden change of strategy must be due to the fact that the commander Zhao Qi had made a breakthrough in the attack on Xiling City, forcing Qin Lei to take a risky attack. Miraculously, after defeating the headquarters, they were able to return to aid Xiling.
"Idiots are talking about dreams!" Wu Quan snorted, looking at the white steam rising in front of his eyes, he spat again, "The weather is f*ck too cold."
Suddenly there was a commotion from the front army, looking from the side of the central army, it turned out to be a mess, Wu Quan couldn't help being furious, and just about to explode, there was the sound of horseshoes ahead, and sentinels flew towards them.
"General Wu, the former army encountered an ambush. The rebels dug pits on the road, buried bamboo sticks and other sharp weapons in the snow, and these people set up ambushes in the dense forest on both sides of the road. The army was caught off guard for a while, and dozens of brothers were injured."
"How many people?" Wu Quan was a little nervous.
"Not many, there should be only a few dozen people. The former army general, General Cai Dong, has led a team to pursue them. I have you all the way!" Sentinel said with a relaxed expression, "It should be just ordinary harassment."
Hearing that there were only a few dozen people, Wu Quan was also relieved. It seems that the rebels are impatient and want to prevent him from going to Nanzhang to rendezvous. This also shows from another aspect that the battle of Nanzhang should have already begun. up.
"Don't worry about the harassment. After Cai Dong comes back, tell him to be careful and send troops to sweep the wings to clear the obstacles for the main force to pass quickly." Wu Quan said.
"Yes!" The sentinel quickly turned and left.
In the beginning, Wu Quan didn't take this small-scale attack like a child's play to heart, but as he went forward, the density of such attacks began to increase significantly, and the number of people gradually increased. Ten people, to more than a hundred people in the middle, and in the end, a large-scale attack team of hundreds of people appeared. Although the opponents had simple weapons and looked like they were dressed like local villagers, they dug pits as traps , set up some small traps for hunting, and shot back arrows from time to time, which caused Wu Quan more and more difficulties. Finally, the current military general Cai Dong was ambushed during a pursuit, and he left dozens of lives in embarrassment to escape. After returning, Wu Quan was finally furious, and came to the front army in person. After being attacked again, he finally caught the attacker's tail. Wu Quan, who was chasing after him, was determined to wipe out all the rioters. Well, the scale of this mob is between two and three hundred people, and it should be the main force of the mob that creates difficulties for themselves on this road.
"Catch up with them and kill them all!" Wu Quan drew his knife and shouted angrily. At this time, there were more than 500 Zhao soldiers following him, and these soldiers were also shocked by these endless attacks. Getting angry, he chased after him with all his strength, and seeing the two sides getting closer, the figure of the other party who had been running suddenly stopped. Under Wu Quan's surprised eyes, the mob who had just been in a mess and broke into an army, In the blink of an eye, a small phalanx was assembled. The speed of the opponent's actions made Wu Quan suddenly feel horrified. At least in this kind of fleeing, he thought to himself that his army would never be able to assemble so quickly and effectively.
The assembled two or three hundred rioters raised their skirts and took out a dark object from inside. The first and second rows quickly squatted down. When Wu Quan saw the things in their hands, he was only a few hundred steps away from them. up.
"Arms crossbow!" Wu Quan exclaimed, following his cry, Lin Lin's strange cry sounded suddenly, hundreds of crossbow arrows rushed towards his face at an astonishing speed, Wu Quan yanked his horse, The war horse neighed, and the sound of thumping was endless. His horse had been hit by countless arrows, and it fell down amidst the whine. Wu Quan quickly jumped off the horse, looked around, and his heart sank. At the bottom of the valley, with just this round of salvo, dozens of people under his command fell.
"Go ahead, don't let them shoot the second round!" Just as he jumped off the horse, Wu Quan was already running forward. Behind him, there are veteran soldiers with rich experience, without the slightest hesitation, stepping on the corpses of their companions, holding their spears, and rushing forward with shouts.
The second round of crossbow arrows was fired again, and it was not true. Compared with the first round, it was much sparser. This time, the opponent's attack only knocked down a dozen people. The opponent also dropped the crossbow and drew out the saber from his waist.
Wu Quan looked at the all strong and strong man on the opposite side, and thought of the black crossbow arrows, he already understood in his heart where the opponent came from.
"Conquer the Eastern Army!" He gritted his teeth, but the fear in his heart continued to grow.
The sudden sound of thunderous horseshoes made him finally fall into the abyss, and those Zhengdong soldiers who were disguised as rioters rushed out of the dense forest behind them, furious like a tidal wave, and rushed like lightning.
"Run away!" Wu Quan immediately turned around, with the strength surging from all over his body, he turned wildly and ran towards the way he came, and immediately returned to the main force to gather the army and form a formation, otherwise the opponent's cavalry would attack , is enough to defeat all his soldiers and horses.
With human legs, how can you run faster than a war horse? Wu Quan only ran a few dozen steps, and the sound of horseshoes in his ears was already knocking on his ears, and the sound of Lin Lin's feathered arrows was endless. The screams and howls are endless.
There was a sound of wind in the back of his head, Wu Quan suddenly stopped, turned around, and the saber in his hand went up to meet him forcefully. There was a sudden sound, his wrist shook violently, and the saber flew out of his hand. A cold light flashed in front of his eyes. Cool, he wiped it subconsciously, but saw blood on his hand, and the cavalry who attacked had already galloped forward without even looking at him.
Wu Quan fell heavily to the ground, and in his last vision, he saw countless cavalry passing by his eyes, rushing towards his army not far away.
"It's over!"
This is his last consciousness, and then he fell into eternal darkness.
Wu Quan's troops were wiped out on the way to Nanzhang without even a splash.
"Clean the battlefield, count the wounded, and evacuate the wounded on the spot, and the rest immediately follow me to Nanzhang!"
After a series of orders were issued, the infantry turned their attention to Hengdao, "Hengdao, Captain Bai, are you ready?"
Heng Dao nodded vigorously, "Don't worry, Commander Infantry, Captain Bai and the rest of the brothers have been working on this for the past few days. When the time comes, we will give Li Mingjun an unexpected surprise under the city of Nanzhang."
"Great!" The infantryman stretched out his hand and plucked the bowstring, amidst the buzzing sound, he laughed loudly, "Take Li Mingjun, Zhao Qi will be the softshell turtle, we, maybe we can go back to celebrate the New Year! "
Bai Yucheng and the other special team members who are discussing between the two have been doing one thing these days, that is to mobilize the folks from all over the country and eight miles, Hefeng's massacre of the city, and Hu Liang's food protection army are going crazy The people who had already harbored resentment against the Zhao court finally burst into anger. Just throwing a little spark in it was enough to ignite the sky-high fire. Countless villagers marched towards Nanzhang from all directions, and the team grew stronger and stronger. .P
