General Wang Hao looked at the raging fire burning in the distance, gritted his teeth, and his eyes were burning with anger. This partial division of the coalition forces burned three granaries in Huashan in three days. Wang Hao knew that he could not
If he waits any longer, according to the enemy's speed, all Huashan granaries will be burned down in less than ten days... Wang Hao also knows in his heart that the enemy may be seducing him and setting up an ambush around Huashan to wait for him.
But even if Wang Hao knew this, he still had to go to the rescue. The Huashan Granary was really important to Qin... Wang Hao stood on the military chariot and looked at the soldiers in front of him. He whispered: "
The enemy has already reached Huashan... When did the people of Qin ever suffer such humiliation? How can we allow the enemy to show off their power outside Xianyang?! They burned, killed, and looted outside Huashan, burned our farmland, and killed our families.
, please prepare to die in battle and follow me to drive these evil thieves out of the land of Qin!"
"The second and third sons all followed Lord Wu An to conquer various countries... Now, Lord Wu An is no longer here, and all the Lords are old... But Lord Wu An's soul!! He is still watching us! How can we let him
disappointment?!"
Wang Hao shouted, and the soldiers standing in front of him also hit the ground hard with their daggers.
"Boom~~Boom~~Boom~~"
Wang Hao immediately divided his army into four groups, each leading 20,000 troops, and fought in the direction of Huashan. The city where he was stationed was not too far from Huashan. After half a day's journey, they had already seen it.
The flames burning in the distance illuminated the entire night, and the rolling heat waves continued to hit them... Wang Hao felt the heat wave that almost burned him. At the same time, he raised the torch in his hand and asked the soldiers
We are ready to fight.
At that moment, heads appeared all over the mountains and plains. The coalition ambush appeared in front of them. Arrows flew towards the soldiers like raindrops. Only the first round of arrow rain fell many Qin people.
, in such a sky, they holding torches have become very conspicuous targets, and the fire burning in the distance also allows the archers to no longer be affected by the night and can display their own skills.
Wang Hao raised his shield, roared, and launched an attack from the mountain road towards the coalition forces, which were far more numerous than himself. After several rounds of arrow rain, the Qin people's forward finally encountered the coalition defense line on the road, and both sides
During the battle, General Wang Hao was at the forefront. He stood on the military chariot and stabbed the soldiers to death one after another with the spear in his hand. The other Qin soldiers followed him and continued to attack as he continued.
The terrain of Huashan Mountain is not conducive to chariot combat.
Wang Hao asked the chariot troops to bypass the enemy's defense line and rush to the rear of the coalition forces through roundabouts, while he led the charge with the remaining three troops... This battle at Huashan lasted for a whole night, and under the light of the flames
Everyone was fighting like crazy. Wang Lu was very brave and led the weak Qin people to capture the high ground for a time, forcing the coalition forces to retreat.
But when Pang Gong, who was ordered to outflank Wang He, suddenly appeared from behind and successfully surrounded Wang He, the battle situation was a little different. The Qin people were attacked from both sides, which made them panic, and there was a gap in the line.
Lu was not surprised or even confused. He had already guessed this. There were very few coalition forces on the frontal battlefield, which meant that they still had back-ups.
Just when the coalition forces surrounded the Qin people and thought they were sure of victory, Wang Hao just calmly changed his offensive defense line, completely exposing his rear to the coalition forces, but the spearhead was aimed at Pang Gong.
At this time, the Zhao ** team came, and a cry of killing suddenly came from the distance. The chariot troops that Qin had been waiting for for a long time finally came out. Wang Hao divided the army into four groups, and one of the chariot troops was
They did not put in chariots, but just went around Huashan and gathered in the rear.
Wang Hao knew that the chariot troops could not play a role in mountain warfare, so he arranged this army in advance. His order was to stand still. If the coalition forces surrounded him from the plain areas at the rear, then go and tear them apart.
defense line, killing their soldiers... Therefore, when this chariot force slammed into Zhao's army from the right, Zhao's defense line was immediately torn apart.
The chariot ran over enemies one after another, and Wang Lu, who had been prepared for it, started to break through from here.
Wang Hao completely ignored the enemy behind him, and just kept charging towards the Zhao people's defense line, constantly advancing, and cooperating with the left and right cutting of the chariot troops. Soon, he was about to break through and leave, while the veteran Pang Nuan was watching.
After this scene, he immediately started a new arrangement. He divided the army into three groups. Two troops were used to deal with the chariot troops on the left and right, involving them and preventing them from continuing to charge. However, he took one of them with him.
Attack Wang Lu directly head-on.
Pang Nuan knew that Wang Ran's troops had been fighting for a whole night and were now at their most exhausted. At this time, as long as he could be held back and attacked front and back with the coalition forces behind him, he would definitely die here.
As the two sides engaged in battle, Pang Nuan continued to direct the troops to fill the gap, constantly involved, expanded the front line, and strived to prevent the enemy from having any room to break through.
Wang Hao didn't know who was commanding the army in front of him, but he knew that this person was difficult to deal with, and the situation was very unfavorable to Wang Hao. If he continued to delay, he would be trapped and die here... Wang Hao
He gritted his teeth and left two troops to fight, but he led the main force to follow the chariot troops to break through directly from the left...
When this battle ended, Wang Hao left here with less than 40,000 people, but here, more than 50,000 corpses were left behind. The casualties were so heavy because Wang Hao abandoned them.
These people were eliminated, and the main force was withdrawn from the battlefield... Of course, the situation of the coalition forces was not very good. The Yan people suffered the most serious casualties, with more than 40,000 people killed in the battle. The original coalition forces of 200,000 people were here.
After the battle, the number of troops was reduced to 80,000 in an instant.
Lord Xinling led the army and continued to rest and recuperate in the Huashan area, while the Qin people returned to Yin and Jin again... Ju Xin hoped that the army could directly attack Xianyang and destroy Qin in one fell swoop, but Pang Gong hoped to leave here because Mongolia
There are still 300,000 elite soldiers there. With the current situation of the coalition forces, if Meng Ao were to block them here, the consequences would be disastrous.
But in Xianyang, King Qin still didn't wake up.
The bad news came again that Wang Hao was defeated and fled, which made the ministers a little panicked, because Xianyang is so empty now, and if the enemy wants to attack Xianyang, all the ministers from the King of Qin to the ministers will be killed...
The people of Qin had not been so scared for a long time, and the king of Qin, who was the backbone, was even in a coma, which intensified the panic. Some ministers suggested that they move the capital with the king and temporarily rush to the north to wait for news from the front line.
Of course Lu Buwei rejected this proposal... The king is seriously ill. At this time, taking him on a long journey is to kill the king?
Of course, Lu Buwei was also very scared. He did not expect that the situation would become like this. Such a bad situation made him not know how to solve it for a while. He could only find the ministers he trusted and let them help.
Find a way by yourself... Everyone sitting in front of Lu Buwei was a little silent at the moment, and they couldn't pay any attention. At this time, Han Fei sighed and stood up slowly.
He said: "I do have a way...but..."
Lu Buwei looked at him hurriedly and said, "Qin is in its most critical moment now. Please don't hesitate..."
............
Zhao Kuo was sitting in the courtyard with his head lowered, not knowing what he was thinking, while Zhao Kang stood beside him and kept asking: "Father...brother, when will they come back? I'm so bored alone.
..When will they come back?" Zhao Kuo raised his head, rubbed his head lovingly, and said with a smile: "They went to the palace to visit King Qin, and they will be back soon..."
"Father...Gong Ge said that Lord Xinling who attacked Huashan was your friend. Is this true?"
"Yes...he is a very good friend of mine."
"Then why does he still attack Qin?"
"Because he wants to protect his home... He wants to protect his relatives..." Zhao Kuo said a few words and then said no more. Zhao Kang could only play alone in the courtyard in depression.
Zhao Kuo's heart was very complicated. King Qin suddenly fell ill, which made him a little worried. The war between Qin and the allied forces made him feel cruel. And when he heard that Lord Xinling bypassed Hangu Pass and attacked Huashan directly,
At that time, he was also very surprised and couldn't help but admire his friend's extraordinary military talent.
He is becoming more and more powerful... The appearance of such roundabout tactics in this era is really shocking.
While he was thinking, the courtyard door was opened. Han Fei took Zhao Zheng and Cheng Xi into the courtyard. Zhao Zheng seemed a little silent, but Cheng Xi kept sobbing. Zhao Kang hurriedly walked up and smiled.
He shouted: "Brother!!" Zhao Zheng forced a smile and nodded towards him. Then Han Fei said to Zhao Zheng: "Please be prepared and bring more clothes for the winter."
Zhao Zheng nodded and walked towards the room. Zhao Kuo looked at them in surprise and asked, "What are you preparing for?"
Han Fei looked at him and said seriously: "Teacher, this is the case. The coalition forces are going to attack Xianyang, and Xianyang does not have enough troops. Therefore, I propose that Zheng'er go to the coalition camp and persuade Lord Xinling to withdraw.
Lord Xinling watched my son grow up, he will definitely not harm Zheng, let Zheng go to Wei State as a hostage to end this war..."
"What?!" Zhao Kuo stood up immediately. He frowned, looked at Zhao Zheng who walked into the inner room, then looked at Han Fei seriously, and asked: "How can you let a child take risks?
Do you think it’s appropriate to send a child to the enemy’s barracks to persuade the enemy’s generals to retreat?”
Han Fei looked at Zhao Zheng. Zhao Zheng thought for a moment and then said seriously to Zhao Kuo: "Father, senior brother wants you to send troops...so he arranged these. He asked me to tell you: As a Qin
Since the young master of the country has the ability to save Qin, he cannot hesitate. It is wrong not to do it if he has the ability." After saying that, he looked at Han Fei again, bowed down, and then said:
"Sorry, I can't lie to father."
Han Fei was stunned. He shook his head helplessly, then looked at Zhao Kuo and said, "Teacher, you once said that with great ability comes great responsibility... You obviously have the ability to change everything. Obviously you have the ability to change everything.
You have the ability to save all the people in the world...but why are you unwilling to do it? You could have saved many people, but you just sit here and let them die. What is the difference between this and killing people?"
Zhao Kuo sat down again and said: "It is the war that kills people, not me."
"Then go and quell the war, teacher. Who else can do this besides you?"
"You want me to take Qin soldiers to kill soldiers from other countries... I don't like war, and I don't want to kill people..."
Han Fei said angrily: "Then you just let those people die? In the past ten days, the coalition forces killed tens of thousands of captured Qin soldiers... These soldiers were originally following your ideas.
, they no longer kill prisoners, and they no longer kill innocent people indiscriminately... But they were treated like this. The Yan people set fire to and killed people everywhere. Several cities were burned into ruins, and tens of thousands of people were burned.
Death...can you hear their cries?"
Zhao Kuo opened his eyes suddenly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.
"what did you say?"
Han Fei was startled, and then he said: "These are all true, and they are definitely not made up for you to go on an expedition. You can go and take a look. Outside Xianyang, there are people fleeing, and there are many children.
There are many insulted women... Do you want to watch them suffer like this? You can obviously save them..." Zhao Kuo stood up suddenly and walked quickly to Han Fei.
"Jun Xinling...how could he commit such atrocities??"
"This is a coalition army. Lord Xinling can control Wei's army. How can he control other armies?"
"Teacher... go take a look outside Xianyang. There are desperate people there, and more people are still being killed right now..."
Zhao Zheng had never seen his father look so angry. He saw his father's face turned red and his eyes bursting with anger. He saw his father put on the military uniform again. His father, who was already tall, put on the military uniform.
After that, he became even more majestic, and his momentum made people dare not face him or look directly at him. He saw his father take out the sword that he had not used for a long time, and the sword shone with a cold light.
He hugged his mother, who was crying, and he comforted his eldest mother, who also looked a little angry, and Zhao Kang. Zhao Kang had never seen his father look so powerful, and he shouted happily.
He followed Shan and put Shan's face on his own for a long, long time. Finally, he walked in front of him.
"Zheng... When I'm not around, you will be the strongest man in the family. You have to take good care of your mother, eldest mother, younger brother and sister... If I die on the battlefield, you don't have to do it for me.
Revenge..." Zhao Kuo rubbed his head, hugged him tightly, then let go, and then walked out of the house.
