Xin Honggao said: "Go a little further, wait until you meet the team transporting baggage and firearms, and then give them a big wave."
Zhao Huaiyi smiled and nodded: "As long as Zhu Fang's army is destroyed, we have a 50% chance of taking the capital of Zhao State directly, and a 70% certainty of holding half of Zhao State in our hands."
Xin Honggao nodded and said: "Although the military advisor honestly shouldn't be too ambitious, I still hope that we can set our goals higher. After all, as the old saying goes, if you ask for the middle, you will get the best, and if you ask for the best, you will get the middle."
Jiang Hong said; "But we must also focus on stability. No amount of risk is too much when we are alone. Now we hold the future of Shuzhou in our hands. If something happens to the army we lead, Shuzhou will be in danger."
I am afraid that the state can only barely defend itself, and it will be difficult to send troops to fight again within a few years."
Xin Honggao nodded and said, "What you said makes sense."
Zhao Huaiyi said: "I think it's better to adapt to changes. The battlefield is constantly changing, and plans never keep up with the changes. How can you say one thing and do another?"
The three most core generals are all telling their own views.
In the end, we still have to focus on stability and pursue cautiously.
It is naturally good to be able to capture the capital of Zhao State, but if it cannot be captured, it is necessary to stop the losses in time and retreat as soon as possible.
On the other side, Zhu Fang was still pursuing hard.
Most of their armies are lightly equipped, while the other side's army needs to transport a lot of heavy items. The siege side needs to prepare more.
Therefore, if Zhao's army is not lazy, there will be no problem in catching up with the enemy's army.
Finally, after several days of hard pursuit, Zhu Fang finally saw the light!
It’s really the dawn!
And it’s getting closer and closer to me. Not only is it getting closer, it’s getting hotter and hotter!
The overwhelming thunder and kerosene were just smashed down.
Not only are there throwing thunderbolts, there are also thunderbolts that grow on the ground.
Suddenly, the few cavalrymen were knocked off their feet by the explosion, and the infantry that followed were also caught in a sea of flames.
It was as if people were throwing firearms from all directions, raining down on people like them for free.
Zhu Fang, who was familiar with the art of war and had considerable confidence in himself, was shocked when he saw such a scene, and his mind went blank.
The sages never taught him how to guard against firearms!
How and what should be used to prevent such large-scale firearms from pouring down?
He had no plans at all.
At this time, even strategy 1 is useless. Most of the people around have turned into corpses, and there is no way to send a message.
There are only a few cavalry around him now, and they are guaranteed to kill every one of them.
The place where they stayed had already been bombed once. If they didn't come back for a second time in a short time, it would be safe for the time being.
It's just that Zhu Fang couldn't imagine how could there be such a large number of firearms on the opposite side?
Shouldn't their firearms have been exhausted long ago?
And weren't their catapults destroyed when they retreated?
Where did they get the catapults from?
How come thunderbolts grow on the ground?
Zhu Fang couldn't figure it out, but it probably wouldn't be useful if he figured it out next.
Because there was no command, the entire army was in chaos.
An army with a command is unstoppable, but an army without a command is worse than tens of thousands of pigs. At least the pigs can run rampant, but without a command, an army is left with nothing but chaos.
Xin Honggao looked at everything in front of him with a telescope on the observation deck and couldn't help laughing: "It's so fun! So fun! How did they know that we not only laid mines on the ground, but also buried kerosene! Now this time, it's so exciting.
It was because they beat them that the entire army ignored each other."
Xin Honggao looked at Zhao Huaiyi and said, "You continue to take command here, I will write the battle report."
After that, Xin Honggao walked off the observation deck.
There will be no second outcome to this war.
Zhao Huaiyi took a telescope and looked at the Zhao army in the distance, which had been defeated and their retreat was surrounded by a sea of fire. He felt doubtful in his heart.
He directs?
What a shit he is commanding!
Now the other side is completely engaged in a trapped beast fight, okay?
Now he just wanted to think about how cooked the other party would be.
These catapults were built in the rear after Xin Honggao sent a message to the army transporting baggage. The previous ones were indeed burned.
Catapults have always been easy to make, and they are not difficult to make and are very fast.
The army retreated to the designated location, then took over the firearms and built catapults sent by the baggage troops waiting in the rear, and buried kerosene and thunder in the ground in advance.
Zhu Fang had learned so many art of war but had never learned how to deal with firearms, so he lost so miserably.
If they continue to defend and engage in street battles with Shuzhou's army, they may overwhelm Shuzhou's army. Once they leave the protection of the city, these people will immediately become vulnerable to firearms.
Zhu Fang paid a heavy price for his rashness, which cost at least half or even the entire country of Zhao.
Originally Zhu Fang escaped the bombing, but Zhao Huaiyi felt that the bombing was not thorough enough and the enemy still had the ability to resist, so Zhao Huaiyi asked the catapult to adjust the distance and angle and bombed again...
This time the battlefield was completely clean.
Soon Xin Honggao's good news was spread back to Shuzhou City.
Xu Qing sat in the study and watched the victory report, then pulled Long Bing'er, who was walking over, into his arms.
Long Bing'er held Xu Qing's slightly dishonest hand and asked, "How is the situation on the front line?"
Xu Qing said: "A great victory. We were bombed back and forth by Zhentian Lei several times. It was not easy to find a few survivors. This was a huge loss for the Zhao State. There were even holes in the defenders in many places. Now the army has begun to pursue the victory.
, your dream of being queen is one step closer."
Long Bing'er was obviously very happy when she heard Xu Qing's words, and then frowned: "Why are you poking me?"
At this time, Xu Qing had already poked Long Bing'er's bulging belly, which made Long Bing'er confused.
Xu Qing said: "The child has stopped making noises all morning. Let me poke him and see what's going on."
Long Bing'er raised her mouth and said, "Maybe he's asleep. Stop poking him. He's finally so peaceful. If you wake him up later, it's my fault."
Xu Qing retracted his hand and said: "Okay, okay, I listen to my Bing'er and let this little guy sleep well."
Long Bing'er sat sideways on Xu Qing's lap and crossed her arms: "Humph~"
Xu Qing looked at Long Bing'er's arrogant look and lowered her head...
