Xiang Yan looked a little embarrassed. The doctor had simply treated his wound. The arrow from the city wall almost pierced his eye, just passing through the eye socket. Blood covered his entire face, making him look...
It was extremely terrifying, but Xiang Yan didn't care about the physical pain. The more pain came from his embarrassment. He had been running away for four or five days. Wang Jian, who was not a human being, didn't know the principle of not pursuing a poor enemy.
He began an endless pursuit of the defeated Chu army.
It was quite a posture of beating a drowned dog. The Chu army retreated all the way from South Korea and fled all the way. They were almost entering the territory of Chu State. The pursuers behind them still did not stop. Xiang Yan suffered a disastrous defeat this time. He was defeated by Wang Jian before.
During the siege with Zhao Kuo, the casualties exceeded 20,000, and the remaining 60,000 Chu soldiers failed to hide in the city. Under Wang Jian's crazy pursuit, so far, only Xiang Yan is left
More than 20,000 people attended.
When he went to war, he brought with him a total of 80,000 elite troops... Xiang Yan's heart seemed to be ignited by something, and he was in agony. He picked up the dagger several times, wanting to pay for his defeat with his life.
But Xiang Yan hesitated because Wang Jian's pursuit had not stopped, and if he committed suicide, the last twenty thousand people would also die here, and they would not be able to go home.
Xiang Yan has not closed his eyes for many days, because of this non-stop pursuit and because of his nightmares. Whenever he closes his eyes, he can always see his brother Linwu Jun shaking his head and sighing. He can
Seeing Jingyang furious and scolding him for why he had to advance so rashly, Xiang Yan woke up in fear. After waking up, he looked at the defeated soldiers around him, their uneasy looks, and listened to the miserable howls of the wounded soldiers.
Everything made Xiang Yan feel desperate.
Finally, Xiang Yan led these people to the border of Chu State. He asked his lieutenants to take the soldiers back to Chu State, but he asked for a horse and turned back to the battlefield.
Hundreds of Qin soldiers surrounded the Chu people who were far more numerous than them. The Chu people looked at them in panic. On the way to escape, they had dropped their weapons and faced the heavily armed Qin people.
, they could only fight back with bare hands. The Qin people were eager for the opponent to fight back, because Lu Buwei's order prohibited them from killing surrendered soldiers or enemies who gave up resistance... And by fighting back, they could just promote themselves to a few titles.
At this moment, with the neighing of horses, Xiang Yan, carrying the banner of the Chu State, rushed over, and behind him was a group of soldiers of the Chu State who had been defeated. They used the enemy's weapons to follow Xiang Yan.
Yan launched an attack from behind. The Qin people did not expect that they would be attacked by the Chu people. After a brief fight, the surrounded Chu people also launched an attack brazenly, cooperating inside and outside.
Xiang Yan was riding a horse, holding the Qin people's heads in his hands, looking at the Chu people in the distance who were picking up weapons.
Another group of Chu people were sent to the border by him, and Xiang Yan once again rode back to the battlefield. The difference was that this time, soldiers followed him immediately.
Wang Jian soon realized that something was wrong. He scattered the Chu soldiers in various places and the attrition became a bit serious. It was probably Xiang Yan's main force attacking them. Wang Jian ordered the soldiers to gather together and stop acting alone.
The Qin State no longer divided its troops to pursue and kill, and more and more Chu people fled the battlefield safely and returned to their hometown.
The loss of Maling was something that Pang Gong never thought about. With the fall of Maling, all of Pang Gong's deployments were destroyed, because Zhao Kuo could have sent troops from Maling to fight with Meng Ao, block them here, and annihilate them all.
, Pang Gong refused to sit still and wait for death. He immediately left Xinzheng with his army and retreated to the direction of Zhongyang, while the King of Han left with him. Of course, there were still people who were willing to stay and protect the New Deal.
The one who stayed to protect the New Deal was the former South Korean Prime Minister, Zhang Ping.
Sitting in the courtyard, Zhang Ping lost his usual solemnity. He smiled and listened to his son talk about the new knowledge he learned today. His son Liang is not yet nine years old this year, and he is at his most lively age.
, he had started reading, and Zhang Ping taught him how to read. He could read very quickly, even faster than Zhang Ping himself. This made Zhang Ping very happy. He used to think that South Korea should have a very smart Prime Minister.
Already.
Zhang Liang spoke seriously about the book he read today. He waved his hands and said excitedly: "I finally finished reading "Ma Fu Shu". Father, you are wrong. Ma Fu Shu is not plagiarized.
Many of the things in it are not found in other books..." Zhang Ping's wife said with some displeasure: "Liang!" Zhang Ping shook his head and said happily: "He
You are right and well said, so there is no need to be angry."
The young Zhang Liang looked at his mother's red eyes, and he seemed to realize something. He asked: "Father, what happened?"
"It's okay, just study hard and you don't need to ask any more questions..." Zhang Ping smiled and said: "In addition to studying, you also have to learn swordsmanship, archery, and driving skills. It's just that
Reading is not enough, what are your ambitions?"
"Of course, like you, I want to serve as the Prime Minister of South Korea and make South Korea stronger so that no other country will dare to look down upon it!" Zhang Liang's eyes widened and he said seriously, and Zhang Ping laughed.
, he touched Zhang Liang's head lovingly, and then said: "Okay, for your ambition, don't always study, don't forget what I said..." Zhang Liang nodded as if he understood.
Zhang Ping then smiled and hugged his son, and he said seriously: "When I was young, my father asked me the same question, and my answer was the same as yours..."
"Then you realized your ambition?"
"Half achieved."
...
Pang Gong left Xinzheng with his army, and immediately joined forces with Lian Po. Before Zhao Kuo's army had arrived, he took the lead in launching an attack on Meng Ao. The two sides fought in the wilderness outside Zhongyang, and Meng Ao
They wanted to keep them and wait for Zhao Kuo's support, while Pang Gong and the others wanted to devour Meng Ao and then turn around to deal with Zhao Kuo. This can be said to be a peak showdown between Pang Gong, Lian Po and Meng Ao.
Ao, these three last three famous generals from the old era, began their final fight here.
Meng Ao still adopted his usual strategy, desperately attacking Lian Po's army, trying to open a gap in the weak Wei army, but Lian Po commanded the chariot to start cutting, cutting Qin's army into several pieces.
But Meng Ao was not so easy to deal with. Under Meng Ao's command, Qin's various ministries fought without appearing chaotic. Pang Gong led Zhao's army to start a roundabout outflank, and Meng Ao opened the gap in Wei first.
, the encirclement was broken before the outflank was completed.
Lian Po was so angry that he simply drove his chariot towards Meng Ao. The old general's fiery temper had not changed at all. He took the lead, just like when he was twenty years old, no one could stop him.
There were soldiers shouting to kill everywhere, corpses and blood everywhere. This was a melee. Soldiers from four countries started a bloody fight here. No one wanted to retreat. People kept falling, and people kept falling.
Someone let out a howl of pain.
Thick smoke billowed, turning the whole world extremely dark. The strong smell of blood was so foul and unpleasant. Under the millstone of war, countless lives were crushed. The millstone spun faster and faster. Pang Gong completed his
After the deployment, the coalition forces attacked the Qin army from all directions at the same time. Meng Ao's resistance became a little difficult. In front, he could vaguely see Lian Po's flags waving and approaching in his direction.
Meng Ao gritted his teeth, suddenly took out the spear from the chariot, and headed towards the place where Lian Po's flag was.
When the chariot rumbled and charged forward, the two old enemies finally saw each other. Lian Po was covered in blood. He smiled ferociously and raised the spear in his hand high. Meng Ao was not afraid at all, and so was Lian Po.
Baring their white teeth, the two chariots rushed towards each other. When the chariots crossed each other, the two of them almost thrust out the spears in their hands at the same time, "Plop~~"
Meng Ao's spear pierced Lian Po's shoulder, but Lian Po's spear missed. Lian Po's target was Meng Ao's head. If Meng Ao hadn't lowered his head in time, he might have stabbed his head to pieces.
Even so, Meng Ao still felt a chill on his scalp, and his helmet had been knocked off by Lian Po. The chariot quickly turned around, and the two rushed together again, and the two changed into Changge, "Bang"
~~"
The huge force almost caused the two of them to fall off the chariot. Meng Ao's hands were numb, and even the weapon was a little unsteady, but Lian Po still held the Chang Ge firmly in his hand. When Lian Po charged again,
At that time, Meng Ao had no choice but to escape. He could no longer hold a weapon. He didn't understand why this old man was so strong and so brave even with an injured shoulder. If he had another round, he would die here.
It's in the old man's hands!
As Meng Ao left the battlefield, the Qin people could no longer entangle him. Pang Gong did not give up this good opportunity. He divided the army into three groups and pursued and intercepted Meng Ao from three aspects. Meng Ao used chariots to clear the way.
They barely escaped Pang Gong's pursuit, but the casualties of the Qin people were not light. Of course, the coalition forces also paid a heavy price. Just when the coalition forces were ready to continue the pursuit, Pang Gong chose to withdraw their troops and quickly rushed to
The next defensive point.
When all the coalition forces entered Zhongyang, Pang Gong breathed a sigh of relief.
Lian Po came in front of him at this moment. Pang Gong looked at Lian Po who was covered with injuries. He was worried and angry. He frowned and said seriously: "I heard that a young general can win through his own bravery."
Defeat the enemy. The old general defeats the enemy through his own strategies. You always take the lead in war. If you die in the enemy's formation, what will your army do?"
Lian Po laughed and said, "I know. When I reach your age, I will use my own strategies to defeat the enemy!"
Pang Gong was indeed much older than Lian Po. Hearing these words, Pang Gong was speechless. He just shook his head helplessly and then said: "Meng Ao was defeated for the first time. Ma Fujun did not have enough troops. In a short time,
I may not attack Zhongyang within. I would like to ask you to lead an army to wander outside Zhongyang. Please harass the enemy so that Ma Fujun cannot easily launch an siege. As long as it can be delayed for two months, Qin will
People must go back to farming...Ma Fujun will never let the war affect farming..."
"I see."
Lian Po couldn't help laughing as he spoke, and said: "Every time I fight against Meng Ao, he always has more food and soldiers than me. This time, I had the advantage and almost captured him alive.
If he hadn't run so fast, I would have beheaded him with one strike!" Lian Po couldn't help but smile and said: "Lord Xinling always teases me about Meng Ao. This time, I met Lord Xinling.
, I also have something to say!”
Pang Gong shook his head. Today's young people are more reckless than the last.
Lian Po led the Wei army and left Zhongyang, but at this moment, Zhao Kuo had already encountered Meng Ao. Meng Ao wiped the blood on his face and was about to bow to Zhao Kuo when he was supported by Zhao Kuo.
Standing up, he looked at the old general in front of him. The old general's hands were still shaking. This was not because of fear, but because he was injured. Zhao Kuo looked at him with some worry, and then asked: "You should go back and rest for a while."
Give it some time."
When Meng Ao heard this, he jumped up angrily and said: "Lian Po drove a chariot to attack my central army and wanted to kill the generals and seize the flag. I retreated because of lack of physical strength. How could I evacuate after suffering such humiliation?"
What? Please allow me to continue fighting, I must capture Lian Po alive!" Zhao Kuo shook his head and said calmly: "A general cannot send troops to fight because of his own anger."
Only then did Meng Ao calm down. He looked at the soldiers behind him and said, "Please give me ten days to rest."
Zhao Kuo then agreed to him. After learning that the coalition forces had retreated to Zhongyang, Zhao Kuo turned back and prepared to capture Xinzheng and Shanshi.
Wang Jian went to capture Shanshi, and Zhao Kuo came to attack Xinzheng.
As an isolated city, Xinzheng had less than 10,000 guards. After being surrounded by Zhao Kuo, the morale of the defenders was very low. When Qin used arrows to suppress the city wall and the rest of the army began to attack, these guards began
In the final resistance, Qin and Han soldiers were fighting together on the city walls. Zhang Ping stood on the city wall, holding a strong bow, and kept shooting at those Qin people who wanted to climb the city wall.
There were really too few guards here. Under Qin's high-intensity siege, the soldiers on the walls quickly retreated. Qin easily captured every city except the one in the north where Zhang Ping was.
position, still making the final resistance. When Zhao Kuo came to the north city wall, he raised his head and saw Zhang Ping standing alone on the city wall. There were only a few soldiers left beside Zhang Ping, and he was in ragged clothes.
, holding the sword and watching the Qin people around him warily.
"Hahaha~~"
Zhang Ping suddenly burst out laughing. He held the sword and twisted his body in an exaggerated way. He actually sang a song: "The powerful bows and arrows in the world are all from South Korea, the powerful crossbows in the world."
Ah, it is also made in South Korea. It can shoot through the enemy's chest from a distance, and it can pluck the enemy's heart from a short distance!"
The soldiers around him also started singing, "That sharp Korean sword can cut off cattle and horses on land, cut off geese in water, and split the enemy's armor when it encounters it!"
"The most powerful bow and arrow in the world!"
"That sharp Korean sword!"
Zhang Ping shed tears, sang loudly, and then jumped down from the city wall.
