Die! "
"Let's see who dies today!"
The two shouted angrily and fought together again.
In the field, there were flashes of swords and guns, and sharp edges appeared from time to time.
The silver spear held back the light, but the two knives were even more like poisonous snakes.
Not only did Li Po have weird sword skills, he was as fast as lightning, his strength was even more amazing.
Generally, brute force is difficult to achieve with dexterity, but he combines the two.
Lian Xiao fought with him and it was hard to separate him, but the more they fought, the more frightened he became.
Li Po, the general of the Yan Kingdom, was like a madman, slashing and chopping, and changing his position very quickly.
During this period, if you are not careful, you will be swept by the blade.
Lian Xiao summoned up all his energy to deal with it, and he also tried his best to put everything he had learned in his life to use.
The two fought more and more fiercely, refusing to give in to each other. However, as time passed, the situation on the entire battlefield also changed dramatically.
Li Po sensed that the situation was not good. After swinging his sword twice, he immediately pulled the reins and galloped away, not wanting to fight with Lian Xiao anymore.
"Stop leaving!" Before the winner was determined, the latter was not willing to do so, so he made a show of pursuing him on the spot.
But after Li Po withdrew from the formation, the soldiers around him separated instantly, then closed up again, and all stepped forward with their halberds drawn out, stopping Lian Xiao.
"Get away!"
Lian Xiao was furious. As he swung his spear, he looked up and saw that Li Po was nowhere to be seen.
In desperation, he swung his gun even more fiercely, and a soldier of Yan Army was swept across the neck by the spear, and was instantly knocked away. He vomited blood and was knocked down.
In a head-to-head confrontation, one hundred thousand versus one hundred thousand, the Yan Army began to be obviously suppressed.
Li Po didn't want to fight with Lian Xiao because he was the leader and wanted to come back to stabilize the overall situation.
But at this time, when he saw him, the deputy general ran over in a panic, held his helmet and said: "The general is not good! The Qin army and the Xuan army began to outflank our army from both sides!"
"What!?" Li Po was shocked when he heard this.
Xiao Yuan, on the other hand, had troops in front, on the left, and on the right, leaving only one behind, hoping to force Li Po to retreat in spite of the difficulties.
There is no doubt that the Qin and Xuan coalition forces, nearly 300,000, will attack you with 100,000, and they will be besieged on three sides. If you don't retreat, there will be only a dead end!
There was no time for Li Po to delay. In this situation, he and the deputy general couldn't help but urged him anxiously. He also roared angrily, and then said sternly: "Withdraw! Withdraw first!"
As soon as he retreated, the Qin and Xuan forces immediately united and began to press in from the front, forcing him to flee all the way.
In order to cover the forage team's withdrawal first, during this period, Li Po was fighting intermittently, walking around and beating.
Xiao Yuan was not in a hurry and kept following him.
Along the way, they chased for an unknown number of miles. It was not until the next morning that the two sides made a temporary pause.
On Li Po's side, after taking a short break, the deputy general also came over and started to say: "General, right now the Qin and Xuan armies are in hot pursuit. It is not an option to continue like this."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Li Po glanced at him.
The deputy general said: "Commander Yue was unable to support him for a while. He must have been blocked by the enemy. However, the main force of our army, which is more than 200,000, will be able to meet our troops sooner or later. Therefore, the general believes that the most important thing at the moment is I am looking for a place to stay and stay temporarily."
"Yes." What he said made sense and agreed with the current situation. After Li Po thought about it for a moment, he shouted: "Get the map!"
Not long after, a sergeant handed over a map, and Li Po unfolded it. After some discussion with the deputy general, he pointed to a place on the map: "Not far behind our army is Lushan Mountain, and this mountain dominates the terrain. Advantage, easy to defend but difficult to attack.”
"The general is right. This place is dangerous. There are springs and streams on the mountain. It is a good place." The deputy general nodded in agreement.
"Okay! Just camp here! There is plenty of water here, and our army has a lot of food and fodder. I will defend according to the terrain and wait for Commander Yue to come to meet me. Let's see what King Qin can do to me!"
Li Po said, and immediately added: "Give me the order to first separate a group of people to transport grain, grass and other materials to Lushan. After the backup is completed, our entire army will retreat."
"No!" the deputy general took the order and left.
After a military order was given, in the afternoon of the same day, the entire Yan army retreated to Lushan and began to stand firm and wait for reinforcements.
The news soon reached Xiao Yuan. After hearing this, the latter frowned slightly: "Trouble, Li Po actually refused to retreat and started to defend the mountain."
When Shangguan Ruo heard this, he thought for a while and said, "Setting a camp in the mountains is like a mountain stronghold. It is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack, but sometimes, it is a taboo for military strategists."
Hearing this, before Xiao Yuan and King Xuan could say anything, counselor Wang Su already said: "Sir Shangguan is right. I suggest that our allied forces immediately encircle Lushan."
"But after Li Po defeated Huan Jun, he got a lot of food and grass. If they defend with danger, they can hold on for a long time, as short as half a year or as long as a year."
A partial general said: "At this time, Yue Zheng's main force may have been able to respond long ago, and we simply can't hold back for so long."
He was telling the truth, but Shangguan Ruo and Wang Su proposed again and insisted on besieging Lushan.
These were two military advisers. Xiao Yuan and King Xuan both valued their opinions and could not help but glance at each other subconsciously.
Later, Xiao Yuan said: "Both gentlemen are so insistent, but have they already thought of a way to defeat the enemy?"
"This" Wang Su said: "Not yet, but besieging Lushan will definitely be stronger than the ground."
"I agree with what Mr. Wang said." Shangguan Ruo followed.
Xiao Yuan thought for a moment, then looked at King Xuan.
Seeing this, King Xuan asked directly: "What do you think, Brother Wang?"
Well, Xiao Yuan said no more, but decided to adopt the two people’s opinions and immediately ordered:
"Send orders to all the troops! Surround Lushan to death!"
"No!" All the generals clasped their fists.
The Qin and Xuan allied forces decided to encircle Lushan. Li Po had expected this, and he had no intention of panicking at all. After the entire army camped on the mountain, he even started eating and drinking.
So what if the enemy army is close to 300,000, can they attack with danger? That's simply impossible!
He had a reason to relax. On Xiao Yuan's side, after surrounding Lushan, he and King Xuan came to the foot of the mountain with a group of generals.
Deer Mountain is very large. It is not steep and rocky, but has many dense forests and only one winding mountain road.
If the army goes up like this, there are still many ambushes there.
After looking at the terrain, Xiao Yuan shook his head slightly and said: "It is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack. Li Po only needs to set up some traps and barriers, and our army will not be able to attack."
King Xuan also sighed lightly, then thought for a moment, looked at Xiao Yuan and said:
"How about this, Brother Wang, let's send an envoy first to persuade Li Po to surrender and see if there is any chance."
"It is impossible for General Li Poyan to surrender."
Xiao Yuan is not optimistic.
