Chapter 712: One man is in charge, and ten thousand men are not allowed to open it! A ray of hope in a desperate situation!
Zhao Jun's surprise attack turned the entire Hou'ao Mountain into chaos.
So what if the coward abandons the Qin army’s camp and flees down the mountain?
The soldiers in front of Zhao Mao had already blocked the gentle slope from Hou'ao Mountain to Fukou Xing.
Nao Dan will definitely be blocked by Zhao Mao’s soldiers as he goes down the gentle slope, and then he will be overtaken and flanked by Hu Qiong’s Second Division.
If the Naodan Division retreats through the mountain road, it will be overtaken by the Hu Qiong 2 Division due to its slow moving speed, and its situation will be even more dangerous!
And Su Jiao's subordinates have been surrounded by three sides and have completely become turtles in the urn!
In the eyes of all Zhao army generals, this raid commanded by Li Mu had sealed the victory in the Battle of Hou'ao Mountain.
The Zhao Jun generals looked at Li Mu from questioning to admiration, and they couldn't help but praise: "The coach can make Lord Qin Changan so embarrassed! This battle will definitely help the coach's reputation. Take the world by storm!"
"It turns out that yesterday's defeat is for today's victory. I have clearly seen all the arrangements of the coach but still can't understand the coach's strategy. The coach's wisdom makes me feel ashamed. ! ”
"I said before that the coach must have a good strategy. Now, do you believe it?!"
The mood of Zhao Jun's generals suddenly became excited.
But Li Mu frowned slightly: "The Qin army withdrew too quickly."
Captain Huang Gaowei was startled: "What?"
Li Mu seemed to He was explaining to Huang Gao, but actually he was asking himself: "The Qin army stationed in Hou'ao Mountain escaped too fast!"
"Although the Hou'aoshan defenders are all crossbowmen, they are relatively weak."
"But even if it is a weak Qin army, it is still a Qin army!"
"Duwei Huqiong, Du Although Wei Renyou's Second Division can defeat this army, if this army retreats to the camp and relies on the military camp to resist, it still has a chance to persist until the Qin army's reinforcements arrive."
"However, this army gave up without hesitation. Yaoshan didn’t even use the camp to resist at all!”
“This is really the move of Han and Yan!”
"How could the Qin army be like this?"
In Li Mu's view, although the Zhao army took advantage of Ying Chengyu's underestimation of the enemy to reach the strategic target faster, and trapped Su Jiao's troops through the time difference.
But Hou'ao Mountain has a defensive camp arranged by the Qin army after all, and the Qin army has hope of taking back Hou'ao Mountain.
Although this hope is not great, it does not make the Qin army choose to give up without hesitation, and is even unwilling to use the camp to weaken the troops of Yiyi Hu Qiong and Ren You.
This is unreasonable!
Huang Gao tentatively spoke: "Could it be because Su Jiao, the captain of the Qin Dynasty, was surrounded by our army."
"This unit had no general to command and the army was panicked, so it retreated in a hurry? ”
Li Mu ignored Huang Gao’s guess at all.
For other armies, a captain caught in a siege will indeed cause this army to panic.
But at this time, as long as a leader of two to five hundred who can convince the crowd with prestige and bravery steps forward, it will be enough to regroup.
Ying Chengyu's Great Qin Military Academy has long been famous throughout the world, and it even performed outstandingly in the battle between Qin and Qi to destroy Chu.
Li Mu did not believe that there would be incompetence among the middle-level generals in the vanguard army led by Ying Chengxuan himself.
However, Li Mu himself could not think of a more reasonable explanation.
After pondering for a moment, Li Mu solemnly ordered: "Send ten thousand infantry along the mountain road to climb Hou'ao Mountain."
"Garrison the Hou'ao Mountain camp!"
"Order Captain Zhao Mao's troops to speed up and cooperate with Captain Ren You and Captain Hu Qiong to annihilate Qin Sujiao's troops as soon as possible!"
"Instruct Zhao Mao's troops in front to kill Qin General Su. Those who win will be rewarded with ten thousand coins! I will personally ask for credit!”
“The front army is advancing, the crossbowmen are in formation, targeting the Qin army”
Li Mu originally planned to use Hou'ao Mountain as the entry point for this battle, and after capturing Hou'ao Mountain, he would quickly seize many strategic locations in front of Li City such as Nan'ao Mountain and Be'ao Mountain.
Use a key battlefield to quickly establish an advantage in this battle by connecting points with lines and lines with areas, and force Ying Chengyu back to Licheng!
However, the battle for Hou'ao Mountain went so smoothly that Li Mu gave up his original plan and decided to take a firm hand.
However, the Zhao generals did not know Li Mu's psychological changes. They just saw the advantages of Zhao Jun and the opportunity to gain military glory, and then excitedly handed over: "Wei!"
As the Zhao army's front troops approached the main battlefield, 30,000 crossbowmen struggled to climb up the sides of the hillside, or gathered in the narrow pass, pointing the Zhao crossbows in the direction of the Qin army and pulling the trigger.
"Boom boom boom!!!"
Heavy crossbow arrows were shot into the sky by Zhao Jun, leaving a dense and lingering cloud in the sunny Fukouxing. .
The continuous explosion of crossbow strings made this place feel like it was experiencing a thunderstorm!
In fact, Su Jiao's troops are indeed enduring thunder and rainstorms.
"Raise your shield!"
The dense rain of arrows forced Su Jiao to retreat to Pao Ze's side, using Pao Ze's shield to protect himself.
More than ten Qin troops quickly crossed Su Jiao, took over Su Jiao's position, and resisted the Zhao army in front.
Li Fu hurriedly sent a water bag: "Captain, please!"
Su Jiao raised the water bag, and a stream of warm water mixed with salt and honey fell down the mouth of the water bag. Su Jiao said.
Li Fu took out another piece of dried meat from his arms: "Captain, eat some meat!"
Su Jiao took a few more mouthfuls of salt and honey water and gasped for a few times. He asked casually: "Is there any honey bean curd cake?"
Lifu quickly took out a piece of cake carefully from his arms: "There is another piece!"
Su Jiao raised his eyebrows: "Only one piece left?"
Li Fu whispered: "I have only one piece left here."
"I will go to Pao Ze later and ask, I don't know what Pao Ze is Do we still have any?"
Su Jiao shook his head with regret: "No need."
The blood-stained right hand took the honey Changchu cake and put it into the panting mouth. In the mouth.
Su Jiao could hardly detect the smell of blood mixed into the honey bean curd cake. He could only feel the sweetness brought by the honey bean curd cake greedily while looking around the battlefield with deep eyes. Although Su Jiao was not good at military strategy, he could still see his predicament.
The defeat of Naodan's troops not only caused the Qin army to lose the Hou'ao Mountain camp, but also allowed Hu Qiong and Ren You to pass through the gentle slopes of Hou'ao Mountain and the front of Zhao Mao Combined forces completed!
At that time, what blocked Su Jiao's return was no longer just thousands of Zhao troops, but a steady stream of Zhao troops.
The key point that caused all these difficulties was the Zhao army that was led by Su Jiao personally into the ambush!
"Pass the commander-in-chief's order, and whoever kills the Qin general Su Jiao will be rewarded with ten thousand coins! Promote him to be a captain!"
"Look, that person is the Qin general Su Jiao! As long as you can get his head, you can do it." Captain of our army!"
"But that man is the most powerful general in the Qin State! You and I can kill him!"
"He is the most powerful general in the Qin State! So what? Judging from the appearance of that person, he is just a young man, and he must be tired after two consecutive days of fighting. Isn’t this the right opportunity for us?”
“Kill them!” br>
As Hu Zhe and Ren You fought their way out, the trapped Zhao Jun's mentality underwent an earth-shaking change.
As Li Mu's order came in, the trapped Zhao troops seemed to have been beaten to death.
Ten thousand dollars is not much, but the position of captain is a fatal temptation for every army sergeant!
What made them even more excited was that this was the captain of Li Mu’s army!
The Zhao State did not arrange the distribution work after the war like the Qin State, but Li Mu did the distribution work!
As long as you can become the captain of Li Mu's army, you won't have to worry about anything in this life!
Facing the hot and greedy eyes, Su Jiao smiled.
Licking his fingers, he licked the remains of the honey cake mixed with blood into his mouth.
Su Jiaozhong held the spear again and shook off the flesh and blood on it.
The blood-covered face showed a ferocious smile:
"Rat!"
"This general is not the most powerful general in Great Qin, but I am fighting for the most powerful general in Great Qin."
"You think you can stop me?!! ”
Even though he had been fighting for several hours, even though his arms were sore and limp, Su Jiao still charged towards the group of enemies who were hungry for his head!
“Come!”
The gun barrel was swept sideways, and several long guns were swept away.
The tip of the gun was pointed straight, and a handful of blood came out from the body!
Su Jiao shouted angrily:
“Fight!”
The narrow Fukouxing allowed Su Jiao to maximize his personal force.
One man and one shot made everyone in the Qin and Zhao armies understand what it meant -
One man is in charge, and ten thousand men are not allowed to open it!
However, Su Jiao was able to gain an overwhelming advantage on one route by himself, but he was unable to move elsewhere to help Naodan's troops gain the advantage.
As Hu Qiong and Ren You rushed down the mountain, the situation of Su Jiao's men became increasingly critical.
Su Jiao's heart became more and more desperate.
But he could only thrust out the spear in his hand again and again.
Like a foolish old man who moves mountains, he tries to break through this highway before Hu Qiong and Ren You arrive!
Suddenly.
Su Jiao saw from the corner of his eye that a soldier from Zhao not far away suddenly fell to the ground.
Su Jiao didn't care. All his blood had already poured into his limbs, leaving no room for his brain to think.
Su Jiao just followed his instinct and thrust his spear at another Zhao Jun.
However, before Su Jiao could stab the Zhao Jun with the spear in his hand, a halberd tip suddenly grew out of the Zhao Jun's throat!
Su Jiao finally raised his head and looked in front of him.
Then Su Jiao saw that the red ocean composed of Zhao Jun's uniforms in front of him was torn apart by a touch of hotter blood red.
A general in red armor and red robes held a halberd in his hand and quickly and fiercely pierced the neck of another Zhao Jun.
At the same time, the barrier between the two of them was broken!
In Su Jiao's field of vision, the setting sun that was about to fall hung just behind Su Jiao's head, like a bright and warm light wheel.
Su Jiao murmured, "General, are you about to die?"
Ying Chengyu, who was also covered in blood, laughed and cursed, and stretched out his right hand towards Su Jiao: "The general is here, even if you want to die!"
"Let's go!"
"Go back to camp with me!"
Su Jiao finally realized that this was not a hallucination he had before his death.
Just like during the Battle of Daliang City, Ying Chengyu appeared in front of Su Jiao again when he was in desperate situation!
And just like when he extended his right hand to Su Jiao, who was shot by four arrows and sat at the north middle gate of Daliang City waiting for death, he stretched out his hand!
But this time, Su Jiao did not hold Ying Chengyu's hand.
Instead, Su Jiao tightened his grip on the spear in his hand and shouted solemnly: "The last general."
"You can still fight!"
"The last general invites you to fight!"
Ying Cheng Yu smiled and patted Su Jiao on the shoulder: "There was a time when you had a good time fighting."
"But now."
"Ming Jin!"
"The whole army retreats!"
