The messenger looked at the yellow sand in the sky, and without any delay, he turned his horse's head and headed west.
But no matter how fast the horse with four hooves is, it cannot be as fast as the sound of the wind.
"Where is the drum beating?" Bai Qi, who was still deducing the battle in the military camp, suddenly heard the drum beating. Although the sound was not loud, it was like thunder in Bai Qi's ears - that The rapid drum beat is clearly an order for a general attack.
General attack?
its not right! Although his reinforcements have launched an attack, the Wei army's combat power is still there, and the Zhao army is stuck between him and Wei like a choke point. If he doesn't deal with one of them, it is impossible for him to order a general attack! And the decisive battle in the south does not need the drumbeat of this general attack!
What if it’s not your own drumbeat? So where does this drumbeat come from? !
Wei Jun? Still, Zhao Jun!
A bad premonition gradually lingered in Bai Qi's heart.
Then he strode out of the big tent, took three steps and two steps at a time, and climbed up to the watchtower vigorously. Looking around, it was quiet in front of his own formation. It was obviously not the Zhao army from the west who had launched the attack.
Bai Qi calmed down a little and decided not to head towards the Light Wolf City to the west. However, although the battle line in front of him was quiet, the sound of drums, shouts of death, and the sound of whimpering horns still reached Bai Qi's ears intermittently.
Because he stood higher, the voice became clearer.
A little different directions, not to the southeast, but to the north of Zhao Jun! Immediately, Bai Qi's heart gradually became calm.
"Zhao Jun really knows how to choose the right time!" Bai Qi chuckled in his heart.
Obviously, in Bai Qi's view, Zhao Jun was betraying his teammates and using Wei Jun to block the sword. Taking advantage of the time when Qin Jun was cleaning up Wei Jun, Zhao Jun did not want to attack Wei Jun to break his own defense, but instead launched a general attack in the opposite direction of Wei Jun. horn.
The intention was obvious: break out from the north.
"Zhao Kuo is so short-sighted." Bai Qi murmured to himself, and then added: "Zhao Jun, how lucky he is."
Short-sightedness means that when the war situation was unclear, Zhao Kuo ignored the interests of the two countries and led the remaining Zhao troops to flee the battlefield.
In this way, the victory was almost given to the Qin army; the Qin army did not even need to do anything, just blocked it for a while, and then occupied the Zhao army's camp. The Qin camps in all directions were instantly connected, and Sima Cuo's troops were no longer attacked Worried about a pincer attack, hundreds of thousands of Wei troops were besieged by their own army.
And once the Wei army is annihilated, what kind of waves can the remaining tens of thousands of Zhao troops make?
Just straighten yourself out a little and push in the direction of Changping Pass and Gu Pass.
More importantly, the Zhao army treated the Wei army like this, completely giving up the flanks and rear of the Wei army to the Qin army. What did this make other countries think? The Wei army came to rescue you. Not only did you not appreciate it, but you turned around and killed him. As a scapegoat, under such circumstances, who else is willing to aid such a treacherous army that uses the rescued Allied forces as a stepping stone?
Lucky means that Zhao Jun is lucky to have such a general, otherwise the entire army would have been trapped in the prison of Shangdang.
But no matter what, it is certain that Zhao Jun wants to escape.
If you want to escape, then your plan will not succeed.
"Instruct the front army to test and attack Zhao Jun's position." Even though he had determined Zhao Jun's intention, Bai Qi still did not easily dispatch the entire army, but followed his usual cautious approach.
Know how to stop when you see the benefit, this alone is enough for most generals to learn for a lifetime.
The probing front army soon received good news: there was almost no resistance in the Zhao army's positions, and they were all empty.
After receiving the report from the former army, Bai Qi no longer hesitated and immediately ordered 30,000 troops to be divided into two groups, one group of 10,000 people, to insert directly into Zhao Jun's side and follow behind to attack him. Turn to the south and meet up with Sima Cuo's troops.
That's right, Bai Qi still placed the focus of his troops on the side of the Wei army.
There is no special reason, it's just that the Wei army has more troops and the result will be greater. As for the Zhao army that fled north, 20,000 troops at the front and rear stopped them.
With more than 10,000 elite soldiers chasing him, even if he escaped, how much could he escape?
What's more, once he captures the Wei army within the territory, no one will be able to stop him from capturing the Shangdang area. Once Shangdang is owned by Qin, Zhao will be like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered and can be slaughtered at any time - or send troops to cut off the connection between Handan and Jinyang, and eat away at Zhao step by step, or Now Handan and the whale engulfing Zhao are all determined by the heart.
And once this Wei army is captured by himself, the last claws of the Wei State will be broken by himself - among the three Jins, the State of Han is already a waste, the State of Zhao is about to become a fish on the ground, and the remaining State of Wei, if If we take it again, there will no longer be any obstacle to Qin's way out to the east.
On the other hand, if a large army is sent to pursue the Zhao army, not to mention whether they can catch up, even if they catch up, it will only kill tens of thousands more Zhao soldiers who are bound to die. However, the Wei army may take this opportunity to escape, then But that’s not good!
Therefore, Bai Qi's decision is obviously a decision to maximize interests based on the known information.
Unfortunately, information asymmetry is destined to make incorrect decisions. What Bai Qi didn't know was that even if he surrounded the Wei army and wiped them out, he would not be able to escape the nightmare of Zhao Jun's siege. Only by catching Zhao Kuo could he force Zhao Jun to give way to a way out.
As a result, the Qin army's last chance to save themselves quietly slipped away.
Bai Qi reacted quickly here, and Sima Cuo, who was closer over there, also quickly discovered the abnormality of Zhao Jun. After thinking about it for a while, he did not arrange troops to pursue him. Instead, he mobilized all the thousands of troops on Zhao Jun's side to deal with it. Wei Jun's side.
He believed that whatever he could discover, Wu'an Lord Bai Qi would also be able to discover. It was not his task to pursue, but it was his responsibility to defend this place and hold back the Wei army.
The additional troops of the Qin army under Sima Cuo were quickly reflected in their combat strength. The originally shaky defense line suddenly became strong again. Several moves of soldiers encountered the great swordsmen of the Qin army, resulting in losses. It came up all at once.
It really made Lord Xinling feel distressed. Of course, such a loss was not enough to shake Lord Xinling's trust in Lian Po. After all, the tiger still had time to take a nap, and it was already dark, so Lian Po had been tense all day and night. , it is normal to be negligent, and it is also possible for Qin Jun's blind cat to encounter a dead mouse.
Of course, Lian Po was very aware of this situation - it was not his own negligence, but the Qin army's increase in troops!
