At this time, the gate of the Qi army camp finally opened, and Kuangliang's carriage drove out slowly under the escort of a group of Qi soldiers, and stopped in front of everyone.
Kuang Liang's face looked extremely haggard, his eyes were bloodshot, and with a helpless expression on his face, he said hoarsely to the other generals of the three kingdoms in front of him, "Everyone, I just received the name from the King of Linzi last night. Let me withdraw.
I'm so sorry, everyone. "
The three main generals Han Wen, Ju Xin, and Jin Bi were stunned at the same moment, looking at Kuang Liang in disbelief.
"Da Sima, are you joking?"
"Great Sima, Qi State is now the leader of the overall situation. You have withdrawn your troops, what should we do?"
"Big Sima, think twice!"
Kuang Liang was not moved by the eager questioning and persuasion of the three people, but he gave a helpless smile, "Everyone, frankly, I don't want to withdraw the army, but just like Jingyang Da Sima said yesterday, the king's order is hard to break." ah!"
When Mingming Jingyang was there, Kuang Liang fought with Jingyang for the position of Allah, but at this moment Kuang Liang suddenly understood the state of mind that Jingyang had when he withdrew yesterday.
Sad.
On the city wall of Lingqiu, Lian Po, Lian Jing and a pair of personal guards were striding forward.
Lian Jing said happily, "Father, since the retreat of the Chu army, the enemy's offensive has been significantly reduced yesterday. Lingqiu City should be able to hold on for a longer time!"
The white hair on Lian Po's forehead was blown by the morning wind, his face was still quite serious, and he said lightly, "It's not time to relax yet, there are still as many as 30 enemy troops outside the city, and they still have the ability to attack Lingqiu at any time." The power of the city!"
Having said that, Lian Po actually relaxed a lot in his heart.
Who wants to die if they can live?
Lian Jing quickly responded, and suddenly sighed, "30 is indeed a little too much. It would be great if one or two of the remaining four countries withdrew their troops."
Lian Po was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, "It's a shame you can figure it out, I'm afraid even Wu Xinjun wouldn't dare to think like that!"
Suddenly, a scream came from not far away, "Everyone, look, Qi, have the people of Qi withdrawn their troops?"
Lian Po, Lian Jing and his son stopped at the same time.
The next moment, the figures of the two appeared beside the battlements in an instant, and their four eyes were fixed on the Qi army camp outside the city.
Sure enough, in the big camp full of purple flags, countless Qi army soldiers were slowly leaving the big camp, bypassing Lingqiu City and heading east.
Lian Jing tremblingly said, "Father, have the people of Qi retreated?"
The muscles on Lian Po's cheeks couldn't stop trembling, and it took a long time before he said, "Yes, the troops are really withdrawing."
Amidst the cheers resounding from the city wall, Lian Jing asked his father another question, "Father, do you think this is also in Wu Xinjun's scheme?"
Lian Po was silent for a long time, and he looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.
"This old man has been dissatisfied all his life, but Mr. Wu Xinjun has no choice but to obey!"
Chapter 257 What should we do now?
Kuang Liang just left and retreated with [-] Qi troops.
Like Jingyang, Kuang Liang was also extremely decisive when he left, so decisive that the remaining three-nation coalition forces were dumbfounded.
On this day, the Allied Forces did not launch any attack on Lingqiu City, because the chief generals of the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms began to think about a problem in the commander's tent.
The general of the Han army, Han, said with an ugly face: "Everyone, now that Chu and Qi have withdrawn their troops, maybe it's time for us to retreat too."
Speaking of national strength, South Korea should be the weakest country among the vassals. Weakness is often associated with fear of trouble, so it is not surprising that South Korea was the first to retreat.
After Han's voice fell, Ju Xin, the leader of the Yan Kingdom, couldn't help being a little moved, and sighed: "To be honest, after the victory in the Battle of Gaotang, the old man really didn't expect that it would turn into such a situation. Could it be that in the Kingdom of Zhao? Is there someone like Zhang Yi and Su Qin?
The old man really admires how he was able to convince King Qi and King Chu under such circumstances. "
Lord Xinling, deputy general of the Wei army, said quietly, "It's not Zhang Yi, nor Su Qin, but Wu Xinjun Zhao Kuo!"
Lord Xinling has always regarded Zhao Kuo as his greatest enemy. As the saying goes, the person who knows you best will always be your enemy. Therefore, Lord Xinling, who has studied Zhao Kuo for several years, can immediately learn from these things. There is a strong "Zhao Kuo flavor" in it.
Ju Xin couldn't help turning pale when he heard the words: "Then Wu Xinjun is really so strong?"
Han nodded with a heavy face and said: "To tell you the truth, the old man also led the army to serve under the command of Wu Xinjun under the order of my king of South Korea. If it comes to the surprising victory in the use of troops, I am afraid that there is no one in this world who can compete with you." Wu Xinjun is on par."
Ju Xin's expression became more and more ugly, and he said, "If that's the case, then what are you and I waiting for?
It is better to withdraw the troops as soon as possible, otherwise, once Wu Xinjun attacks, we will wait." After the retreat of the Qi army, the remaining Yan, South Korea and Wei countries combined had only 18 soldiers and horses, which was already different from Zhao Kuo's [-]. Not far away, if you add the tens of thousands of defeated soldiers in Lianpo Lingqiu City, there will be no difference.
Defeat the No. 1 general in the world with no difference in troop strength?
Juxin is not so optimistic.
However, the next moment, what Lord Xinling said shocked Ju Xin and Han's heart.
Lord Xinling said slowly: "It is true what you two said, but I want to ask you a question here. Kuangliang and Jingyang retreated under the orders of King Qi and King Chu, and now the two have orders from King Han and King Yan." ?
The two should know what it means to withdraw troops without an order, right? "
After Lord Xinling's words fell, Han and Ju Xin's expressions changed in unison.
After a few seconds, Ju Xin showed a reluctant smile and said, "If the king knew about this situation, he would definitely agree with the decision to withdraw troops."
Lord Xinling sighed and said, "Why is Juqing so naive?
As long as there is no order from King Yan, even if your withdrawal is really in line with the situation, so what?
After all, you will still be accused of arbitrarily decided crimes, and you will even lose your family because of it! "
Sweat began to flow down Ju Xin's forehead, and he said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Xinling, stop joking, why is this?"
Lord Xinling said solemnly: "Ju Qing, although you are the chief general, what you are responsible for can only be matters on the battlefield.
To start a war with Zhao State or to cease war with Zhao State must be ordered by the king in any country.
If you withdraw your troops without King Yan's order, wouldn't it make King Yan think that you want to seize power with King Yan?
At that time, it would be a strange thing for you not to die! "
Lord Xinling's words were extremely sharp, making Ju Xin sweat more and more, but he was powerless to refute.
Because Mr. Xinling is right, the right to start war and the right to cease war are originally the powers that belong directly to the monarch!Han smiled wryly, and said: "Mr. Xinling, stop talking, I know you are always resourceful, please find a way to solve our current predicament.
After all, the three kingdoms of you and I are all grasshoppers on the same rope, one prospers and the other loses, isn’t it? "
Lord Xinling glanced at Jin Bi, who nodded slowly.
Therefore, Lord Xinling continued to speak: "Both of you, the Marquis also said just now that it is absolutely impossible to retreat without the king's order.
But Zhao Kuo's tactics have already been sent, so our only choice is to fight Zhao Kuo to the death three days later! "
After Lord Xinling's words fell, Han Heju Xin turned pale with shock.
Han said in surprise: "A fight to the death with Zhao Kuo?
But now we only have 18 people. "
Ju Xin also smiled wryly: "Yes, Lord Xinling, it would be fine if Lian Po is the leader of Zhao Guo, but that is Lord Wu Xin, Zhao Kuo!"
Han and Ju Xin panicked.
Lord Xinling had a plan in mind, and said, "Why do you two want to overwhelm others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige?
Lianpo in Lingqiu City has been besieged by our 40 coalition forces for many days and has already been unable to fight. What Zhao Kuo can rely on is actually the [-] Zhao army in his own hands.
We used 18 to fight Zhao Kuo's [-], and we also have nearly twice the force advantage! "
Han said helplessly: "That's what you said, but Mr. Xinling, I really don't have any confidence."
Ju Xin nodded again and again.
Lord Xinling's face darkened, and he said coldly: "General Han, Juqing, you two should think about it carefully, now it is impossible for you to leave this place and have to fight Zhao Kuo, otherwise you will disobey the king's orders! Whether you want to be killed by King Han and abandon the market after you return to the country, or take a gamble and fight Zhao Kuo to survive, it is entirely up to you!"
After Lord Xinling's words fell, Han Heju Xin's face turned green and pale, hesitating endlessly.
Lord Xinling saw the hesitation of the two men, and took the opportunity to say: "You two, our army has superior strength and morale. After careful calculation, the chances of winning are still very high! And as long as we defeat Zhao Kuo here, then the capital of Zhao State will be defeated." Handan has no troops at all to guard it, not to mention the heavy damage to the Zhao country, and it is not impossible for our three kingdoms to destroy and divide the Zhao country equally!"
Mr. Xinling's revelation made Han and Juxin finally make up his mind with his emotion and profit.
Han gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Xinling is right, this time I will fight with Zhao Kuo here!"
Ju Xin also slammed his fist on the table with a bang: "Yes, I fought with Zhao Kuo!"
Seeing Han and Ju Xin's performance, Lord Xinling looked at Jin Bi again, and both of them had smiles on their faces.
After a while, Han and Ju Xin left hand in hand, only Lord Xinling and Jin Bi remained in the tent.
Jin Bi said in a deep voice, "Mr. Xinling, this time I will let you do what you promised me."
Lord Xinling cupped his hands and said seriously: "Of course.
After this battle, the whole world will know that it was General Wei Jin Bi who led the army to defeat Zhao Kuo! "
Chapter 258 Decisive Battle Day
Outside Lingqiu City, the camp of Zhao Guo's reinforcements.
"My lord, the Qi army has completely retreated across the river, and there is not a single one left!"
When Xu Li spoke, there was obvious excitement and joy on his face, "Now, there are only three small countries of Wei Hanyan left!"
Zhao Kuo nodded and said, "Very well, let's go ahead and inform the whole army to strengthen their combat readiness and be ready for possible enemy attacks at any time!"
Xu Li was stunned for a moment, "Why is this?"
Zhao Kuo glanced at Li Mu beside him, "Come on."
Li Mu thought for a while, and said, "Returning to the Lord, Qi and Chu are big countries, even if they retreat now, they are not afraid of Zhao's revenge in the future.
The three countries of Wei, Han, and Yan are all small countries, and if Da Zhao retaliates against them in the future, they will absolutely be unable to resist.
Therefore, for the sake of safety, before reaching an armistice agreement with Da Zhao, these three countries should stick together tightly, and it is absolutely impossible to withdraw their troops. "
Zhao Kuo slapped his thigh and said with a smile, "That's very good, and Lord Xinling is on the opposite side, so this battle is settled."
Based on various historical materials and the current situation of the nightingales, it can be said that Zhao Kuo knows this Lord Xinling very well.
Lord Xinling is a person who understands the overall situation very well, so he will definitely not choose a short-sighted retreat, but will encourage the remaining Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms to fight Zhao Kuo for a decisive battle.
With Lord Xinling's eloquence, Zhao Kuo felt that it was not too difficult to persuade Han Wen, Ju Xin, and Jin Bi.
From Zhao Kuo's point of view, it is also very important for Zhao Guo to use a victory in Lingqiu to clean up the depressed atmosphere in the entire Zhao country after the defeat of Gaotang just after Zhao Guo, so that Zhao Guo can regain the momentum of the largest country.
Three days passed in a flash, and the decisive day came.
On this day, for the first time, the long-lost horn sounded in the Zhao army camp outside the city, and one hundred thousand Zhao reinforcements poured out of the camp to line up.
On the other side, countless troops were also pulled out from the camp of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces.
Wei Guozhu stood Jin Bi on the chariot, his whole face was obviously excited.
After Kuang Liang and Jingyang left, Jin Bi was able to become the undisputed leader of the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces this time, leading 18 Three Kingdoms Allied Forces and the current No.1 general Zhao Kuo to a real battle on the battlefield!Jin Bi glanced at Lord Xinling beside him, then turned his gaze to Han Wen and Ju Xin, and said in a deep voice, "You two, are you okay?"
Han Wen smiled and said, "I have betrayed Zhao Guo once, even if I want to return to Zhao Guo's embrace now, can Mr. Wu Xin trust me?"
Ju Xin also said in a deep voice, "Yan and Zhao are close neighbors, as long as Zhao is not in decline, Yan will not be at peace.
My Dayan soldiers and horses will definitely go all out in this battle! "
Jin Bi let out a long breath, and said seriously, "This is the best."
Due to the distance, three days is not enough time for the envoys from South Korea and Yan to return from the capital, so it is not surprising that Han Wen and Ju Xin are so firm.
Jin Bi waved his hand, "Send the order, let the whole army attack!"
This time, Jin Bi took [-] Han troops as the left wing, [-] Yan troops as the right wing, led [-] Wei troops as the central army, and left [-] reserve troops to guard the direction of Lingqiu City.
The formation is simple, and the goal is determined to defeat Zhao Kuo!When Jin Bi gave an order, countless soldiers of the three armies shouted, held up flags and waved their weapons and rushed out, heading straight for Zhao's camp.
Zhao Kuo squinted his eyes and looked at the billowing smoke and dust from the coalition forces in the distance. He listened to the reports from the scouts. After a long while, he sighed in disappointment, "This Jin Bi really hasn't made any progress at all."
Standing beside Zhao Kuo, Xu Li couldn't help laughing and said, "My lord's words are wrong. Jin Bi is just a middle-aged man, so naturally he can't fight against the lord."
Zhao Kuo shook his head and said sternly, "The so-called lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. No matter what, Jin Bi has made General Lianpo suffer and lose. You must not relax.
Uncle Xu, pass on the order and let our troops attack! "
This time Zhao Kuo only had [-] soldiers and horses in his hands, so Zhao Kuo decided to take a defensive stance.
"This time, the Marquis takes the left wing as the main attack direction, which means that the enemy's right wing Yan army is our breakthrough point!"
"Both the central army and the right wing are on the defensive this time. Be sure to hold the enemy firmly and wait for the left wing to defeat the current enemy army!"
