"Come for me, whoever kills Bai Qi will be rewarded with ten thousand gold and be crowned king!"
Zhao Kuo swung his sword fiercely, pointed the blade forward, and shouted.
He doesn't care whether he has the right to make someone else a king or not. Let King Zhao handle those troublesome matters!
As long as Bai Qi is killed, the battle of Changping will be won, and he will no longer have to worry.
Even if he becomes a rich man when he returns home and then lives to eat and die, Zhao Kuo will be satisfied.
When Lian Po heard Zhao Kuo's words, his expression changed, and he wanted to stop him, but it was too late, Zhao Kuo had already shouted out, and all the soldiers went crazy, waving their weapons and rushing towards Bai Qi crazily.
Overflowing with gold and being granted the title of king, this is something that one would never dare to dream of, and it is enough to make all the soldiers fight for it.
"All the troops, retreat. I am at the rear. Send someone to inform Xin Wu and ask him to withdraw." Bai Qi reluctantly ordered.
In this state, it is impossible to defeat Zhao Jun.
After so many years of fighting, this was the first time he took the initiative to retreat. Although he was tricked, no one could have predicted that Le Yi and Tian Dan would appear on the battlefield, but Bai Qi would not make excuses. If he lost, he would lose.
Excuses are only made by weaklings.
A truly strong person thinks about how to win back next time.
"Commander, why don't you let Xin Wu try to attack Baili Stone." Wang Hao gritted his teeth and said.
"There are many defenders in Bailishi, and Zhao Jun can support them at any time." Bai Qi shook his head.
Bai Qi's original plan was to attack Zhao Jun, fake defeat and lure Zhao Jun into Danshui Valley, and then lead his army to block the entrance of Danshui Valley.
At the same time, another large army was sent to attack Changping. Changping had no general and could be captured easily.
At this time, the Qin army that tempted the Zhao army had already penetrated deep into the Danshui River Valley. In order to destroy this part of the Qin army, Baili Shi would inevitably send troops to attack the main force of the Zhao army in front and back.
At this time, the five thousand Qin troops who circled behind Baili Stone took the opportunity to sneak attack Baili Stone, and Baili Stone would be captured.
Changping was lost, the retreat was cut off, and 400,000 Zhao troops had no choice but to be trapped here alive.
In the end, Li Mu gave Bai Qi a surprise and directly destroyed the Qin army in the valley. The appearance of Le Yi and Tian Dan was completely beyond Bai Qi's expectation. The three of them ruined Bai Qi's plan.
"If we fail to capture it this time, our army will have no hope of annihilating the Zhao army." Bai Qi said in a deep voice.
His goal was never to gain or lose a city or a place, but to annihilate Zhao's 400,000-strong army so that Zhao would no longer have the power to compete with the Qin army.
The purpose of Zhao State is to defeat the Qin army and defend Shangdang, so it is impossible to give up Changping unless it is absolutely necessary. Once Changping is given up, all troops will be withdrawn to a hundred miles. Although it is more conducive to defense, it is not conducive at all.
attack.
In the end, we could only wait until the food and grass were exhausted, completely abandon Shangdang, and withdraw to Handan.
At that time, not only Handan may face Qin's military front at any time, but Jinyang will also be occupied by Qin.
This is absolutely unacceptable to Zhao Guo.
If the Qin army fails to attack Bailishi, Zhao will be wary. In order to preserve the 400,000-strong army, it is very likely that the Qin army will withdraw from Changping or even abandon Shangdang. Then the Qin army will no longer be able to completely annihilate the Zhao army.
But as long as the Qin army has not attacked Bailishi, even if the Zhao army has doubts, it is impossible to abandon Changping and withdraw from Bailishi.
This is people's luck.
Bai Qi took advantage of this point of Zhao Jun.
For Bai Qi, if the Zhao army could not be completely annihilated, even if the entire Shangdang was captured, the war would be a failure.
"Commander, you retreat first, and I will take the rear." Wang Hao said resolutely.
At this time, even Empress Bai Qi will have to pay a huge price, and may even die.
The Qin State can live without him, Wang Lu, but it cannot live without Bai Qi, especially when the Zhao State may rise again.
"All troops, retreat, I will take the rear." Bai Qi's cold voice repeated again.
This failure was caused by his poor thinking, so he must protect the army until it all retreats. Even if he is Lord Wu An and the commander of an army of 600,000, he cannot be an exception. This is Bai Qi's principle.
"promise."
Wang Lu could only obey Bai Qi's order and began to command the army to retreat.
"Everyone, let me kill you!"
Yan Ju led Zhao Feiqi, who had less than three thousand remaining, to kill the retreating Qin army.
In this battle, Zhao Feiqi's losses were extremely serious, but everyone felt very happy because the Qin army's losses were much greater than theirs!
"Where are the cavalry? Where are our cavalry?" Wang Hao shouted.
"General, our cavalry...has been completely wiped out..." the soldier said.
"Guards, follow me to form a formation and stop..." Wang Hao suddenly stopped. He thought that all his guards had been buried in Changping City in order to cover him.
Wang Lu, who had never shed a tear after so many years of fighting, at this moment, tears could not help but fall from the corners of his eyes...
"I'm here to stop the Zhao army, you retreat!" Wang Hao's solemn and solemn voice echoed on the battlefield.
"Stop them." Le Yi ordered.
The Zhao army continued to surge towards the Qin army. Bai Qi led the black armored army to stand at the end. With a wave of the Long Yuan sword, a large area fell down, and the surrounding corpses had piled up into a mountain.
Bai Qi fought and retreated, and the soldiers around him kept falling, but this tall and majestic body still stood upright. His body was covered with blood, both from the enemy and from his own.
After all the Qin troops retreated, Bai Qi began to lead the remaining Black Armored Army, which numbered less than a thousand, and began to retreat south.
Le Yi led his army to follow closely and pursued them all the way to Guanglang City.
"General, Guanglang City has been occupied." Wang Hao said sadly.
He couldn't understand why the Qin army, which was clearly on the verge of victory, suddenly suffered such a defeat!
"Hahaha, Mr. Wu An, you didn't expect that such a day would come." Jia Yan stood at the top of the city and laughed wildly at Bai Qi.
After the Battle of Huayang, Bai Qi's figure lingered in his mind like a nightmare. He had never been so happy.
Bai Qi gave Jia Yan a cold look. Jia Yan instantly felt a cold air rising from his tailbone to the back of his head. His mouth was open, but he could not speak.
"Withdraw to Gaodu." Bai Qi suppressed the anger in his heart and led the remaining army to withdraw towards Gaodu.
"Ming Jin." Le Yi looked at Qin Jun who was leaving and waved his hand.
"Just let Bai Qi go like this?" Zhao Kuo was a little unwilling. He risked his life as a bait, but in the end he still failed to kill Bai Qi.
"Although the Qin army was defeated, their numbers are not smaller than ours. Unless they use special terrain, they cannot be retained. If we continue to pursue, we may be ambushed." Le Yi shook his head.
"The Qin Army's equipment is better than ours, it has more troops than us, and it also has two military spirit legions. It's pretty good that we can fight to this level."
Lian Po walked over from a distance and said excitedly.
To be honest, defeating Bai Qi was something he had never dared to think about before.
Zhao Kuo achieved such a dazzling result in the first battle of his life. Lian Po didn't understand why he was dissatisfied.
"Unless casualties are ignored, Bai Qi cannot be left alive."
Tian Dan also came over, with a smile on his face. Unlike Lian Po Leyi, Tian Dan's smile only contained the excitement of returning to the battlefield, not the pride of the Zhao people for defeating the Qin people.
"In that case, let's retreat." Seeing the three people saying this, Zhao Kuo said helplessly.
