Zhao Kuo knew long ago that this journey would never be that easy. Because of the institutional gap, the other countries knew nothing about the internal situation of the Qin State. However, he was riddled with holes in this aspect and was beaten by the Qin people. The infiltration was very thorough, and there was no privacy at all. Spies were arranged at the bottom, and large sums of money were bribed at the top. I am afraid that the people of Qin knew about Zhao Kuo's borrowing of grain earlier than King Zhao.
The more than 200 knights that Lord Pingyuan could lend him gave Zhao Kuo a lot of peace of mind. He thought that with such a large scale, he could run unimpeded in Zhao Kuo's territory, but he did not expect that the Qin people could actually organize themselves in the enemy's territory. Raising an army of hundreds of people and equipped with bows and crossbows made Zhao Kuo a little scared. If the Qin people broke through the Danshui defense line, and there were these internal and external cooperation in the rear, wouldn't they be able to directly attack Handan?
Now, Zhao Kuo has no time to think about this anymore. He is very scared in his heart, but he cannot let everyone find out. If even he shows fear, then these disciples will definitely lose their courage, and they will not be able to do it again. A road was cut on the sheep intestine slope. Zhao Kuo pretended to be open-minded and ate the meat with big mouthfuls. Everyone also ate with open arms. Zhao Kuo praised their appetite from time to time.
He looked with some worry at the knights in front of him who were chatting, laughing, eating and drinking. After spending so many days together, he was very familiar with these people. When he found out that his choice could determine their lives, Zhao Kuo couldn't help but panic. , Ge handed him a piece of mutton. The mutton had been left for a long time, and the taste was already a little wrong. Even if it had been roasted on the campfire for a long time, it was still like this. Zhao Kuo took the mutton from his hand, and his hands were shaking.
He raised his head, looked at Ge, and said with a smile: "This mutton is very hot."
Ge didn't say anything, he was just wiping his dagger carefully.
Li Yu suddenly came over and asked: "Young Master, since the other party has relaxed its vigilance, why don't you wait until night, when they are asleep, before launching the attack?" Zhao Kuo shook his head and said, "The other party just relaxed his vigilance. , it will definitely not leave people on guard, you can’t see at night, and if you light a fire, it will be easy to be discovered, not to mention it is difficult to command, and there may be a situation of killing each other.”
Li Yu nodded. He had not experienced war and had not even read any art of war. Zhao Kuo ordered: "Later, you don't have to follow me to fight. Take these charioteers and distribute them on both sides. I have Reuse." Li Yu nodded, and Fu Zhao on the side said helplessly: "Young Master, if there are too many people, it is inconvenient to hide yourself, not to mention that these drivers are old and they may not be able to help much. , but if they escape, it will cause bigger problems."
Zhao Kuo nodded and said with a smile: "I know, I don't want them to go to war." Then, he stood up, looked at the sky, his face gradually became solemn, and said: "Please lead them to do a good job. Get ready." Then Zhao Fu summoned the knights and the young and strong drivers, a total of more than 400 people. Under Xing's guidance, they all wrapped their bodies with branches and leaves and painted their faces with mud and grass.
It was already evening, the sun had already set, and the sky was getting dark. Zhao Kuo and others were ready. Zhao Kuo pulled Li Yu in front of him and ordered: "You take all the charioteers and distribute them on both sides. At the entrance, when we rush out and fight the enemy, you lead them in shouting that there is no need to go out to fight, just stay where you are, hit the tree trunks, and make noises..."
"Then what are you shouting for?"
"Please lead them to curse the Qin people and shout to kill the thieves."
"I see."
Zhao Kuo ordered Li Yu, and then he pulled out the sword from his waist. This sword was a gift sent by King Zhao when he was crowned. It was also a sharp blade. Zhao Kuo led his people to the road leading to the crown.
On the small road on the high slope, we parted ways with Zhao Fu. Xing naturally followed Zhao Kuo. Today, Zhao Fu also followed Xing to familiarize himself with the road he was going to. The two groups carefully passed through the dense forest and quickly climbed up.
The slope.
"Who?! Enemy attack!!" Before Zhao Kuo could react, he heard someone shouting in front of him. When he took a closer look, he saw a man hiding in the treetops. He noticed the situation here, holding a crossbow in his hand.
He shot it towards Zhao Kuo. Ge on the side rushed up and pushed Zhao Kuo down. The crossbow arrow flew past Zhao Kuo's ear. Zhao Kuo was trembling all over and his hair stood on end. He jumped up suddenly with a hanging hanging behind his back.
He raised his sword and shouted: "Kill!!"
Under this fear, he had already screamed out Po Yin, and his voice had been deformed and looked very strange. At this moment, Xing rushed forward and started fighting with the thief who had just jumped down from the tree trunk. Xing sword
He stabbed the man in the chest. The man was not wearing armor. Fortunately, he pulled out his sword and the man fell down. The disciples shouted and rushed out. Ge quickly let go and jumped to the ground. Zhao Kuo followed.
The diners rushed over!
On the slope on the left side, there were more than a hundred Qin people lying down. After hearing the shouts of killing, they jumped up quickly, took out their swords without thinking, and raised their bows and crossbows. They were well trained.
Su, didn't even panic. Of course the leader was among them. The leader stood up and looked forward. He was frightened when he saw a group of weirdos coming towards him, but he didn't have time to do anything.
What was he thinking? He could only shout: "Kill the enemy and behead him!!"
Zhao Fu on the other side was not discovered originally, but the roar on the left side directly awakened the enemies on the other side of the slope. Zhao Fu didn't say much, and directly led the people to rush forward, and the two sides fought together!
The Qin people who were resting suddenly saw such green-faced monsters. They were all frightened. In a daze, the Zhao people took advantage of them and backed away. Fortunately, they quickly recovered and quickly
Counterattack.
Zhao Kuo was mixed in with the crowd, and his mind went blank. He raised the long sword in his hand and ran. When he rushed up, there was already fighting in front of him. From time to time, someone fell down. Zhao Kuo was at a loss.
Looking at all this, he just raised the sword in his hand. At this moment, he saw Ge Zheng jump up and wipe out a person's neck with his sword, while another enemy swung his sword towards him from his left side.
go!
Zhao Kuo jumped over in an instant! The long sword in his hand slashed towards the man! But he closed his eyes and only heard a thud. The long sword in his hand seemed to have cut something, and a burst of fire splashed onto his body. Zhao Kuo
When he opened his eyes, the man was lying on the ground howling, but his arm fell to another place. Looking at the bloody scene, Zhao Kuo felt his stomach churn and almost vomited.
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the dense forest not far away!
"kill!"
"Kill Qin Dog!"
"Surround them!! Don't let them escape!!"
But it was Li Yu who led the crowd to roar with all their strength and hit the surrounding trees with wooden sticks, making a noise. There were hundreds of old and weak people around Li Yu. Although these people could not go into battle to kill the enemy, they could still stand there.
There was no pressure in the empty shouting here. The shocking shouts of killing immediately shocked the Qin people. They turned pale and looked in the direction of the dense forest. The leader also panicked and looked to the rear, looking for a way out.
This roar made Zhao Kuo wake up. He jumped up to a high platform, pointed around and shouted: "Our reinforcements are here!! Don't let them go!!" The diners screamed strangely, and again
A charge was launched, but this time, the Qin people could not withstand the charge. The leader shouted, trying to stabilize the soldiers, but luckily he had already rushed in front of him, forcing him to not give orders and could only concentrate on fighting.
.
This Qin man was tall and very strong. Fortunately, we fought with him for a while. His hands were numb and he could hardly hold the sword. Fortunately, the Qin man was defeated. Helpers came to help him in the battle immediately. Four retainers surrounded the Qin man.
No matter how brave the Qin people were, they couldn't deal with four people at the same time. The four of them launched attacks at the same time. He just looked at Xing in front of him and rushed towards Xing regardless. Xing already understood what he meant.
When Xing was fighting in the countryside in the past, if he was besieged, he would just grab someone and beat him up. This guy wanted to replace me. Xing understood this, and he suddenly threw the long sword in his hand and quickly left.
He picked up the crossbow from the ground, pointed it at the man, and fired it fiercely. At such a short distance, the crossbow's power was maximized, almost piercing the man's body. The leader trembled and looked at the arrow on his chest.
, pointed at Xing, wanting to say something, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.
Xing smiled disdainfully, you wanted to fight to the death, but unfortunately you chose the wrong person. I am not a Yanzhao warrior, I am just a bandit.
The death of the leader completely crushed the Qin people who were still resisting, and these people collapsed instantly.
