Tada!
Tada!
A fast horse galloped towards the valley under the moonlight.
Moments later-
"General, the King of Han has sent his troops!"
"General Sima Shang and the Han army have already forced Wang Jian's army to retreat!”
On the hillside, when Li Mu heard the news, he immediately clenched his fists. A trace of relief flashed across his face as he muttered,""Our king has finally done the right thing.”
Logically speaking, privately criticizing the ruler was disrespectful and would be beheaded.
But over the years, the actions of Zhao Wangqian and Prime Minister Guo Kai had caused the entire court to complain.
Scolding the fatuous ruler and treacherous prime minister behind their backs had already become a common thing for the Zhao ministers.
The group of generals under Li Mu did not just scold Zhao Wangqian, but many of them had also persuaded Li Mu to lead the army to revolt.
However, these people were all scolded by Li Mu.
At this moment, another group of fast horses galloped over from afar.
"General!"
"Yi 'an…Yi' an City has been breached!"
The soldier said breathlessly.
Hearing this, Li Mu's face was filled with anger.
"This Zhao Yuan is really trash!"
"Yi 'an's resources far exceed Chi Li's, and they didn't even last as long as Chi Li's!”
"General, why aren't we attacking?"
The deputy general asked curiously.
When the Qin army completely occupied Yi 'an City, their cavalry would not be able to play much of a role.
"No need, continue waiting."
Li Mu said in a deep voice.
"General, but…"
"You mean the king's edict?”Seeing the deputy general's troubled expression, Li Mu said disapprovingly,"Ignore him."
"Right, you must watch over the four scouts of the Qin army. Don't let them escape.”
Li Mu said and walked down the hill.
……
South Line, Hanoi County.
Wang Jian's expression was a little ugly as he looked at the map in front of him.
Everything was going according to plan when they destroyed Zhao.
He had never thought that the usually cowardly Han Country would actually dare to interfere and send troops to support the Zhao Country.
This made him suddenly face the desperate situation of being attacked from both sides.
The army finally broke out of the encirclement, but they also suffered heavy losses.
Especially when the provisions were burned by Sima Shang's men, he had no choice but to withdraw his army back to Hedong County to make some adjustments.
"General."
Just as Wang Jian was feeling vexed, a young general opened the tent door and walked in.
"Zhao Tuo, you came at the right time."
Seeing that the person who came was Zhao Tuo, Wang Jian hurriedly opened his mouth and said,"Have you sent someone to inform General Huan He?”
"This general is worried that Sima Shang will lead the army to the north. At that time, General Huan He will be in danger!”
Zhao Tuo cupped his hands and said,"General, I've already sent a fast horse to inform him."”
"Should we retreat or…"
Zhao Tuo asked unwillingly.
He originally thought that by following Wang Jian, he would be able to destroy the State of Zhao in one fell swoop and achieve a great cause.
However, he did not expect to suffer such a crushing defeat.
"Wait for the king's order."
Wang Jian hesitated for a moment before saying.
Zhao Tuo didn't say anything.
……
Yi 'an City.
Seeing the city gate broken, Huan He was overjoyed and quickly waved his long sword!
"Soldiers, listen up! Quickly occupy Yi 'an City!”
Rumble!
All the vanguard soldiers rushed towards the gates of Yi 'an City.
On Xia Lan's side, after attacking the city, 60 soldiers formed 12 battle formations, with five people in each group, and charged towards the Zhao soldiers in the city.
Under Xia Lan's lead, they were like a sharp knife that tore through Zhao Jun's defense.
Wherever they passed, the Zhao army did not even have a single group!
Behind Xia Lan and the others, the military judge was a little stunned.
He had been a military judge for many years, but he had never seen such a brave Qin soldier.
Most importantly, this team's battle formation had a unique effect. They cooperated with each other in the chaotic formation and looked out for each other.
There were no casualties after the massacre.
On Xia Lan's side, the fact that she still retained 20% of her rationality after going berserk had greatly improved her combat ability.
Holding the Qin sword, Xia Lan used it as a dagger.
In her previous life, she had used all sorts of fighting and assassination techniques. Xia Lan's killing style was completely different from her previous style of killing after she went berserk.
The military judge had been in the mood to observe the formation of the 60-man squad.
But later on, he was completely shocked by Xia Lan's massacre.
……
The defense of Yi 'an City was not as strong as Chi Li's. After the Qin army entered the city, the Zhao soldiers guarding Yi' an City immediately ran towards the south gate of Yi 'an City.
When Huan He led the generals into Yi 'an, he couldn't help but sigh in relief.
Before the city fell, he had been very worried.
They were afraid that a cavalry would suddenly charge out from behind them. At that time, their soldiers would not be able to withstand the charge of the cavalry.
Now, as long as he entered the city, even if Li Mu brought an army to attack, he could resist for a while.
The Xiongnu in the north were having a good time. Huan He felt that even if Li Mu brought his troops to fight, he would not be able to hold them off for too long.
This was Huan He's plan.
"Pass down my order, quickly occupy the city walls and prepare to defend!”
Riding on his warhorse, Huan He gave the order.
"Yes!"
Everyone accepted the order.
The army quickly began to move.
Those who treated the wounded treated the wounded, those who cleaned up the corpses, those who moved the supplies…
Xia Lan and the other Qin soldiers who were chasing after the fleeing Zhao army were also summoned back.
Just like how he conquered Chi Li City, Huan He's goal was not to conquer the entire Yi 'an City.
His goal was still to use Yi 'an as a springboard to threaten Handan, so that the northern army of Zhao would not dare to easily go south to support Sima Shang.
However, what he did not know was that Sima Shang was currently leading an army of more than 100,000 soldiers towards Yi 'an!
The night was as cold as water. Although it was already summer in the north, the night was still a little chilly.
After experiencing the two sieges of Chi Li and Yi 'an, nearly half of the hundred thousand Qin soldiers had been killed.
Of the remaining sixty thousand soldiers, nearly ten thousand were injured.
Such casualties were beyond Huan He's expectations.
But there was nothing he could do.
They were only the vanguard, not the main force.
Their role was to restrain a portion of the Zhao army's forces, allowing Wang Jian to quickly attack the city and reach Handan.
……
Late at night, on the road about two hundred miles away from Handan City, an army was rushing towards Yi 'an City.
In Yi 'an City, many Qin soldiers were still unaware of this.
Beside the bonfire, Xia Lan was eating her food with a deep frown on her face.
He didn't know if he had remembered wrongly or if the wheels of history had already taken advantage of him.
This battle should have ended in failure, but now, they had actually won.
Was it because he, a transmigrator, had caused a butterfly effect on this world?
Xia Lan couldn't figure it out, so she could only think so for the time being.
However, this was also good. Although he did not use some of the survival techniques he had thought of before, it would be best if he could safely occupy Yi 'an City.
