When Zhao Hao was sitting on his horse watching the battle between the two armies, Qingqi came to report: "Sir, the translator Song is here!"
"I call upon Song to pay homage to the young master!"
As soon as he saw Zhao Hao, Yi Xusong got off his horse and saluted Zhao Hao respectfully.
Zhao Hao knew the sincerity of Yi Xusong and did not embarrass him. He smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, there is no need to be polite in front of the army. Just stand aside and wait for Han Xin with me!"
"yes!"
When Yi Xusong saw that Zhao Hao's attitude towards him was infinitely better than before, he felt happy, but on the outside he pretended to be calm and stepped aside.
Soon, Han Xin rode his horse to Zhao Hao, dismounted and said, "General, I will pay my respects to the young master!"
"Haha, we are all our own people, no need to see outsiders."
Zhao Hao smiled and asked curiously: "How are you doing over there?"
"Ke Bei is now guarding the main road. As long as we don't fight them head-on, they will never be able to break through!"
Han Xin said confidently.
Zhao Hao smiled and nodded, then looked at Yi Xusong: "What about your side?"
"Back to the young master, Mu Lin is dealing with them. I believe they can't escape our encirclement!"
The translation calls the Song Dynasty to take the matter seriously.
Although it was the first time for him and Mu Lin to work together, they both had the same goal, so they worked together very well.
On Zhao Hao's side, Chen Ping had some difficulty in commanding due to the small number of troops.
However, overall, their total military strength far exceeded Zhao Tuo's army.
Although Zhao Tuo's army is still resisting, it is only a matter of time before Zhao Hao wants to destroy them.
"Since you are all confident, let's go into the account to discuss the final battle and see how we can minimize the losses!"
Zhao Hao said casually.
The generals walked into the temporary Chinese army tent with smiles.
"Han Xin, I promised my father to take down Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao tonight. Do you have any foolproof method?"
As soon as Zhao Hao walked into the big tent, he asked Han Xin directly.
Han Xin said humbly: "Young master is wise and resourceful, so how can the general speak for himself?"
"Okay, you don't have to be modest. Although I am good at planning, it is all about long-term strategies. You are good at making decisions on the fly and accurately controlling the scale of war. I believe in your ability and am ready to give all the command rights to the army. here you are!"
"Ah? This"
Han Xin's face was full of surprise.
The generals looked at each other, looking at each other.
Why does the young master trust General Han so much?
Is General Han more powerful than General Wang?
Thinking of this, all the generals' eyes converged on Han Xin.
Han Xin hesitated for a moment and said: "Since the young master trusts the general so much, then it is better for the general to obey orders than to be respectful!"
"very good!"
Zhao Hao smiled and nodded: "Then tell me how to fight this battle?"
Han Xin cupped his hands and said, "Sir, I have already thought about this before I came. Now Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao are surrounded on all sides. It is also dark and cannot easily identify the direction. The food and grass in their hands are almost empty."
"From this, the final general conceived a plan of ambush from ten sides, carefully selected ten battlefields, and gradually consumed Zhao Tuo's army through layers of obstruction, and never allowed Zhao Tuo's army to cross the Li River."
"in addition."
As he spoke, he paused and continued: "In order to undermine the morale of Zhao Tuo's army, the general also prepared Qin songs to make the old Qin people in Zhao Tuo's army feel homesick after hearing the songs. In this case, Zhao Tuo's army will be in chaos. , which will help our army achieve final victory at the minimum cost!"
Hearing this, Zhao Hao looked happy. When he surrounded and killed Xiang Yu, Han Xin didn't use "embarrassed on all sides, ambush on all sides", but now he actually used it to surround and kill Zhao Tuo.
Zhao Hao was immediately full of expectations and immediately handed over the military power to Han Xin: "These are the command arrows and military talismans. It's up to you tonight."
Han Xin quickly stepped forward to take the command arrows and military talismans, and said seriously: "Don't worry, sir, I will never let you down!"
at the same time.
Zhao Tuo's army, which had just broken out and was met with disgrace, was quickly retreating to the bank of the Lishui River.
Now with Qin troops on three sides and bottomless water behind them, Zhao Tuo's troops had no way to retreat.
"General, what should we do now?"
Ren Xiao retreated to Zhao Tuo with a look of embarrassment and asked in a deep voice.
Zhao Tuo glanced at him and frowned: "It will not be easy for Zhao Hao to capture us. Now these soldiers are united with us. In order to save their lives, they will fight to the end. As long as we can hold on until dawn, we will definitely be able to break through the encirclement." !”
"However, we don't have many soldiers under our command anymore. I'm afraid we won't last until dawn!"
"You have to persist even if you can't persist. This is the only way out!"
Zhao Tuo said without any doubt.
At this moment, a melodious Qin song suddenly came from the wild. The old Qin rebels felt their hearts beat and couldn't help but listen.
The song says:
The north wind blows in the October day. I have been recalling the past in my hometown for more than a year. My parents are looking forward to it. They are worried about returning to the north soon. I have no sleep at dawn and the night is tossing. I am holding on to my sword and wearing strong clothes. I miss you from time to time. The bird's nest is in the south.
The song was melodious, melodious, sad and sad, and it was sung over and over again. It reminded many old Qin soldiers of their wives and children at home, and they couldn't help but burst into tears, causing a sound of crying to ring out from the shore.
Suddenly, the singing changed.
Life is born from parents, never forget the kindness of nurturing. Three years of hard work to find a wet nurse. The baby will grow up like a pearl. I hope that the child will start a career and start a family early. When you grow old, your hair will turn gray, your liver and intestines will be cut, and you will cry. Why is your heart choked with sobs? depression
As the songs rang out, more and more old Qin soldiers thought of their gray-haired parents, their sad wives, and their long-awaited lovers. They also thought that they were trapped here, and perhaps died in a foreign land, leaving their families behind. The white-haired parents sent the black-haired one away, and they couldn't help but burst into tears, and the weapon 'Ping Ping Pong Pong' in their hands fell to the ground.
Many people squatted on the ground and leaned under the trees, echoing the singing over and over while secretly wiping their tears.
Soon, the entire shore of Li River was filled with tears and sadness.
"What's going on? Why did someone sing Qin's song? There are still so many people singing it. Could it be that His Majesty sent an army here?"
The moment Zhao Tuo heard the singing, he suddenly lost his voice and rushed out of the camp.
Suddenly, the singing outside the city changed, and another sad song came to their ears.
"I won't fight, I won't fight, I want to surrender, I want to go home!"
Someone stood up, shouted loudly, and rushed straight out of the camp.
Ren Xiao quickly ordered: "Anyone who escapes from battle will be killed without mercy!"
After saying that, he directly picked up the crossbow in his hand and shot at the runaway, but the singing did not stop and continued to sing.
Not long after, someone came to inform Ren Xiao that it was Han Xin's trick. Ren Xiao quickly told Zhao Tuo the details: "General, this won't work. You need to think of a way!"
Zhao Tuo shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I thought that the old general was already invincible, but I didn't expect that Han Xin would appear again. I, Zhao Tuo, have been unlucky for eight lifetimes and was born in this era;
Forget it, let them go, let the generals discuss matters here, and let our soldiers gather here too! "
"this"
Ren Xiao was greatly surprised, and an ominous premonition arose in his heart.
Soon, he gathered the few remaining generals into the temporary tent.
I saw them all crestfallen, with dejected looks on their faces, and some even had tears in their eyes, obviously touched by the singing outside.
Zhao Tuo sighed helplessly. Although he was not from Qin, he also knew the homesickness of Qin people.
"Generals, whether you blame me Zhao Tuo or hate me Zhao Tuo, I have nothing to say. I have nothing to say. Now our army can no longer break through. If the sergeants want to leave, just let them go. , there is no point in forcing them to stay, but the generals’ wives, children, and children, Zhao Tuo can no longer leave them to you as promised, I’m sorry!”
"this"
When all the generals heard this, they all looked at each other in shock.
Zhao Tuo led them to rebel and used extraordinary means. They were forced to follow Zhao Tuo desperately because their wives, children and children were in Zhao Tuo's hands.
Now that Zhao Tuo's situation is over, it would be a bit conscientious not to drag them to be buried together.
However, Zhao Tuo captured their wives, children, and children, but could not hand them over to them, which made them angry and helpless at the same time.
Seeing that the generals were silent, Ren Xiao suddenly spoke: "Although it is no longer possible to lead the army to break through, the general and I have decided to die like a hero, so we are determined to lead our troops to break out;
Regardless of success or failure, we must maintain our final dignity;
As for you, I hope that after we leave, you will all surrender to His Majesty. I believe that His Majesty will not embarrass you. This can be seen from the fact that he recovered Lu Jia's subordinates! "
After saying that, he stood up from his seat, waved his hand and said: "Okay! You all go down, I am leaving with the general!"
"General!"
All the generals spoke in unison.
Zhao Tuo glanced at them helplessly and sighed: "Your wives, children, and children are in Linchen City. I hope you will be able to return to Linchen City and reunite with your family. Go ahead, all go down!"
"!"
When the generals learned that their wives, children, and children were in Linchen City, they stopped pretending and immediately said goodbye to Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao.
No, there was still one person left in the tent, not moving at all, and it was Shi Lu.
Zhao Tuo was stunned and said, "Shi Lu, why don't you leave?"
"General, if I go back, even if His Majesty can forgive me, I will not be able to forgive myself. Since the General and Lieutenant Ren are ready to give it a try, I am willing to fight you on the battlefield and my life will not be in vain!"
Shi Lu said righteously and sternly.
Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao looked at each other and smiled slightly: "Since you have made up your mind, I will no longer advise you, just return to the team!"
"promise!"
Shi Lu accepted the promise and retreated.
Zhao Tuo's eyes gradually blurred, and after a moment he said coldly: "Except for Shi Lu's wife, children, and children, everyone who left just now will be killed."
"good!"
Ren Xiao readily agreed, then walked straight out of the tent and shouted loudly: "Let's go!"
In the darkness of night, Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao led more than a thousand cavalry towards Mangdang Mountain to the west.
The cry was rumbling, and less than five miles after the group broke through, shouts of killing rang out from both sides of the road. Countless Qin troops rushed fiercely, surrounding the more than a thousand cavalry.
Zhao Tuo laughed loudly when he saw this: "Brothers, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid!"
More than a thousand cavalrymen shouted loudly with all their strength.
"Well done! Follow me!"
Zhao Tuo laughed loudly, smashed his horse, and rushed straight into the Qin army's formation.
For a time, all the Qin soldiers were very angry and rushed forward to stop them.
The general who led the first ambush was Wu Nian. This was the first time he was fighting Zhao Tuo head-on. He couldn't help but feel excited. He rushed to Zhao Tuo and yelled: "Hey! Where are you, kid Zhao Tuo! Wu Nian is here!" "
When Zhao Tuo heard this, he turned around and saw that the other party was Wu Nian. He couldn't help but smile contemptuously: "It's up to you! You can't stop me!"
After saying that, he shot to the top and hit Wu Nian who was charging forward.
Wu Nian was shocked and raised his sword to block.
"boom!"
The huge force caused Wu Nian to gnash his teeth, scream and retreat with stars in his eyes.
Just as he was about to hit the sore spot, Zhao Tuo's second shot came as promised. Wu Nian tried his best to fight, but unexpectedly the weapon was knocked to the ground. His throat felt fishy and sweet, and he couldn't help but run away in a hurry and disappeared into the vast night.
Upon seeing this, all the Qin troops were demoralized and retreated from Fudao one after another.
"Have fun! Come again!"
Zhao Tuo raised his head and laughed, sat down on his horse and continued to run towards the Li River.
The night is dark, the sky is full of stars, the river is sparkling, and it's so beautiful.
At this time, Zhao Tuo and Ren Xiao rushed into Yueling Mountain and once again rushed out an army, shouting for killing.
In the light of the fire, two Yue generals appeared in Zhao Tuo's sight and shouted: "Zhao Tuo, Mu Lin, the translator Song is here, where do you want to escape?!"
Zhao Tuo laughed when he heard this: "How dare you show off when you are defeated? Don't leave! Take my shot!"
With that said, he directly raised his gun and rushed towards Yi Yusong and Mu Lin.
Translator Song and Mulin did not dare to neglect. They both held weapons and joined forces to fight against Zhao Tuo. The rest of the Western European army also followed to kill Zhao Tuo's soldiers.
For a time, shouts of killing could be heard all day long along the Lishui River.
However, even if Yi Xusong and Mu Lin cooperated seamlessly, and Zhao Tuo relied on Ren Xiao's assistance, they could not defeat them. They could only leave in defeat like Wu Nian.
Seeing Zhao Tuo's generals being defeated one after another, Zhao Tuo couldn't help but have a bold idea in his mind. Maybe he could break through the siege tonight, and the sea and the sky would be vast.
However, when they came to the mouth of Li River Crossing, there were originally more than a thousand cavalry, but now there were less than 500 left.
Suddenly, a cry of killing suddenly came from the ferry. Han Xin led an army to kill him: "Zhao Tuo, let's see where you run this time!"
Zhao Tuo didn't say anything, and directly mobilized his war horses, rushing towards Han Xin's ambush like lightning, and shouted: "Death!"
"clang!"
The sound of handover between Jin and Ge suddenly sounded.
Han Xin shouted, "Open!" He raised the spear in his hand to meet him, and sparks suddenly flew out.
The two fought together again.
I thought this time it would be another inextricable battle. Unexpectedly, the next moment Zhao Tuo and Han Xin fought together, a young soldier appeared out of nowhere, holding an iron halberd, three steps and two steps at a time. Rush towards Ren Xiao.
"Hey! The thief will be decapitated!"
"Um?"
Ren Xiao, who was fighting with the Qin army, was caught off guard by the sudden attack and subconsciously slashed with his sword. Unexpectedly, when the opponent stabbed him with a halberd, he actually hit his horse with his shoulder.
Ren Xiao was shocked and angry, but he had no choice but to quickly break away from his horse and jump into the water.
"It's over. I didn't expect that I would drown after fighting all my life!"
At this moment, someone reached out and grabbed Ren Xiao's hair and laughed loudly: "It's not that easy to die!"
