"Protect the commander! Don't let that man escape! Keep him!"
There were many figures outside the military tent. Wu Xiong only saw a figure floating away. Countless arrows were shot at him, but they were all crushed by this man's true energy.
It is not unusual for top martial arts masters to break into the enemy's camp. Even the Zhou army has a group of warriors who follow the army. There are only a few whose cultivation is around the fifth and fourth grades. However,
Not much in quantity.
It is generally used to kill enemy generals.
But there are very few people who dare to break into the Chinese army camp single-handedly like this man.
And there are even fewer people who have the ability to escape unscathed. .??.
There is no doubt that the opponent must be a top expert.
Thinking of this, Wu Xiong put the hand holding the envelope behind his back without leaving a trace, and looked at the generals who were surrounding him.
"I'm fine, Commander. Please be more vigilant."
The others quickly agreed.
Wu Xiong returned to the military tent alone, took out the envelope and frowned.
What is the purpose of the other party allegedly delivering the letter alone?
After opening the envelope, Wu Xiong's pupils shrank as his eyes fell on the contents of the letter.
The next day.
In a mountain col outside Feiyan Pass, Zhao Kang randomly picked up a piece of yellow withered grass on the ground and put it in his mouth.
He came here alone.
About half an hour later, just when Zhao Kang thought that the other party did not dare to come, a figure appeared in his sight.
When the figure approached from a distance, the outline gradually became clear, it was Wu Xiong.
Looking at Zhao Kang, Wu Xiong was very confused and confused. Now that his army was unable to advance or retreat, it was a great opportunity for Qian's army to gain the upper hand.
If the other party doesn't make any arrangements, why do they still want to meet me here?
"Marshal Wu."<
br>
Zhao Kang shook his hand as a greeting.
Wu Xiong frowned and called Master Zhao. When Zhao Kang went to the State of Zhou to celebrate his birthday and participate in a cultural gathering, the two of them met once in the main hall.
Zhao Kang spat out the withered grass in his mouth and said with a smile, "Marshal Wu is very courageous. Are you not afraid that Zhao Kang will set up an ambush here and directly make you, the commander-in-chief of the armed forces, unable to come back?"
Wu Xiong said calmly, "How could the Imperial Master know that my commander would be unprepared when he came here? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Zhao Kangyile said that even though Wu Xiong was hiding it, he could still detect the other party's nervousness. He was too lazy to say any more scene words and said with a smile, "Then I'm not polite. I have no other reason for asking Marshal Wu to meet. I just want to give Marshal Wu a
A choice.”
Wu Xiong was stunned for a moment, then snorted coldly, "Should Guoshi Zhao ask me, Wu Xiong, to lead the army to surrender? If so, then there is no need to continue the conversation."
"Hey, Marshal, don't be so excited. Just listen to what I have to say."
Zhao Kang said with a smile, "Since the two armies have been facing off, Marshal Wu's 300,000-strong army has lost troops and generals. At this moment, there is even less food and grass."
"Trying to break through my Feiyan Pass is tantamount to wishful thinking."
Wu Xiong was furious to death. Although what Zhao Kang said was true, he still felt unhappy. He was about to retort a few words when he heard Zhao Kang speak again.
"And I don't hide it from Marshal Wu. There are not many troops in Feiyan Pass, only 110,000 or 20,000. Although it is not difficult to capture you, the loss of troops and generals is inevitable in the end."
Wu Xiong's face looked better now, "What on earth is Master Zhao going to say?"
Zhao Kang said calmly, "It's very simple. Marshal Wu, please withdraw your troops."
Wu Xiongyi
Hearing this, he immediately laughed angrily, "Are you kidding me? Why should I withdraw my troops?"
Zhao Kang smiled and said, "It's very simple. You can't defeat me, and I have burned a lot of food and grass. Why don't you withdraw your troops and waste them? Waiting to be wiped out by me?"
qnb
Wu Xiong's face turned red but he couldn't say a word for a long time, even though he had been thinking about withdrawing troops for the past two days.
And even the person who took the blame has been found.
But when Zhao Kang said it so bluntly, he still felt very humiliated and almost got excited and wanted to fight Zhao Kang.
Seeing him like this, Zhao Kang also knew that the other party was not at peace in his heart, so he smiled and said, "Don't be excited. Listen to me, you have been defeated one after another. Now is the time when your morale is low. Although I will have to waste some energy if I want to eat you, but
If we really fight, you will definitely lose."
"The marshal hasn't forgotten the defeat of the vanguard army, has he?"
Wu Xiong fell silent. He still vividly remembered the disastrous defeat in the siege of the city a few days ago. Now he also understood how Lin Kuohai's vanguard army was defeated.
With that kind of weapon, if he had to go head-to-head with Qian Jun, he might not have much chance of winning.
Zhao Kang added, "Now that Li Muyi has just ascended the throne, it is time to show off his grand ambitions. If we know that Marshal Wu went out with hundreds of thousands of troops, but in the end his entire army was annihilated."
"I'm afraid Marshal Wu's nine tribes won't be able to protect themselves."
"Are you trying to scare me?" Wu Xiong said with a serious expression.
Zhao Kang "Just stated the facts, so it is the best choice to lead the troops to retreat now. As for the reason for the defeat."
"Didn't I put back Lin Kuohai for you? Marshal Wu could put all the blame on him by then, saying that Lin Kuohai colluded with me and betrayed military intelligence, which led to your defeat and heavy losses.
.”
"But fortunately, Marshal Wu, you fought bravely and commanded the army to resist. Finally, you led your men to fight a bloody way through my siege, keeping the army and horses intact."
"In this way, Li Muyi won't make things difficult for you anymore. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"
Wu Xiong...
He almost thought that Zhao Kang was the roundworm in his stomach, and he actually told him all his thoughts these days.
At this point in the conversation, Wu Xiong stopped pretending and looked at Zhao Kang with some confusion: "Why are you doing this?"
With such powerful weapons, the Qianjun army is bound to win this battle. Why not send troops to attack at this moment and completely annihilate ourselves?
Hearing his words, Zhao Kang said calmly, "It's very simple. You are not worth my trouble now. My opponent is still waiting for me."
Wu Xiong understood that Zhao Kang did not want to confront him head-on now. He still needed a large number of troops to do other things.
Thinking of this, Wu Xiong sighed in his heart, said nothing more, and silently turned around and left.
Zhao Kang then spoke at the right time.
Wu Xiong paused for a moment. Hearing what Zhao Kang said, his heart couldn't calm down and he quickly quickened his pace and left.
after one day.
The scouts on the front line who were spying on the enemy quickly rushed back to Feiyan Pass.
"Informing Commander Zhao, the enemy troops have withdrawn!"
Everyone in the hall was overjoyed. Zhou State had retreated! Qian State had won!
Li Long quickly said, "Commander Zhao, do you want to send troops to pursue us?"
There will be endless troubles after letting the tiger return to the mountains. Now the Zhou Dynasty's withdrawal of troops is also an opportunity.
Zhao Kang shook his head, "No, let them go. What we need now is to make arrangements to deal with the real enemy!"
