Han Xin set up a formation with 80,000 cavalry, hoping to lure Zhang Liao to break the formation, but Zhang Liao was not fooled. Instead, after using crossbows to consume his energy, Han Xin directly attacked the formation with 40,000 cavalry.
Facing 40,000 Qin cavalry, including the heavy cavalry of the broken army, Han Xin's command was a textbook example, and there were no flaws in the entire process.
However, the overall gap between the two armies still exists, and it cannot be made up by individual abilities.
Han Xin was able to resist 40,000 iron cavalry with 80,000 infantry cavalry for so long. This is already a very rare achievement. Now the Korean army has finally reached its final limit.
Just when the Korean army was being beaten and retreating, and the formation was about to collapse, there was a burst of smoke and dust from the northeast of the battlefield, and the rumble of a large number of cavalry kicking the ground.
After Han Xin discovered the phenomenon in the northeast, a strange color flashed in his eyes, and he said softly: "Success or failure depends on this."
[Ding dong, Han Xin’s skill ‘Soldier Immortal’ has effect 2 activated, reducing Zhang Liao’s intelligence by 4 points. Zhang Liao’s current intelligence has dropped to 86. 】
Then Han Xin drew his sword again and shouted: "Reinforcements have arrived. Soldiers, if we don't fight to the death now, how can we wait longer?"
"Kill!" Gao Ming and Gao Jue shouted together.
[Ding dong, Gao Ming Gao Jue’s combo skill ‘Clear Eyes and Ears’ effect 2 is activated. Since Han Xin’s basic commander is higher than 100, the commander is 1. The current commander of Han Xin has increased to 106.]
The soldiers of the Korean army were almost desperate. The Qin cavalry's combat power was too fierce, and the infantry was at a great disadvantage against the cavalry. Even if they relied on large formations, they could only temporarily compete. Over time, they were still beaten back.
All the soldiers of the Korean army knew that once the eight-door army formation collapsed, the Korean army would definitely face a rout. Under the pursuit of the Qin army's cavalry, there would be very few people who could survive.
Therefore, when they heard the news that the reinforcements had arrived, the Korean soldiers aroused the desire to live again, and the fighting spirit that had been gradually suppressed gathered again, and a stronger fighting force broke out.
Time actually matched the Qin army.
"Report... to the military division, a large number of cavalry are coming here ten miles away in the northeast, and they are carrying banners with the characters "Zhao" and "Yuan". They are suspected to be reinforcements from the Zhao army to support the Korean army."
"Is it Zhao Jun's cavalry?"
Guo Jia immediately showed a serious look and asked, "Have you ever found out the specific quantity?"
"This... the enemy army is huge in number. As soon as our spies get close, they will be shot dead. But judging from their movement, I'm afraid there will be no less than 20,000 cavalry."
"Twenty thousand cavalry?"
Guo Jia frowned and said to himself: "With Long Qie's 50,000 cavalry restraining him, how did Lian Po bypass Long Qie and send 20,000 cavalry to rescue? In addition, it was necessary for Lian Po to take risks for the sake of the Korean army.
Is it such a big risk?”
Guo Jia is still very relieved about Long Qie. Although he is not Lian Po's opponent, it is still no problem to contain him. So how did the 20,000 Zhao Qi come here?
Another point is that although Korea and Zhao are allies, they also have a lot of grievances. Lian Po sent 20,000 cavalry just like this. If the Korean army was not saved, he would definitely be included in the Zhao army.
Is it necessary to do this for the Korean army?
Guo Jia's instinctive feeling was that there was something wrong. After all, the timing of the arrival of the 20,000 Zhao reinforcements was too coincidental. If they had arrived a quarter of an hour late, the Han army's formation would have been broken by Qin's cavalry.
"Are Han Xin's various actions of delaying time waiting for Zhao Jun's reinforcements? Or are they fabricated out of thin air and deliberately used to confuse our army?"
Guo Jia didn't have that much time to verify. After all, the 20,000 Zhao army cavalry who came to the rescue were not far away from arriving on the battlefield.
The distance of ten miles is fleeting for the cavalry. If the Qin army cannot defeat the Han army again, the Zhao army's cavalry will spare the Qin army's rear and attack the Qin army from both sides with the Han army. By then, the Qin army will probably face a total
The danger of annihilation.
"What should we do? Should we seek stability in everything? Or should we take risks and try our best?"
Guo Jia couldn't help but feel anxious, but he was more inclined to take a risk, but at this moment Zhang Liao sent back the general order.
"General Zhang Liao has ordered the military advisor to stop the attack and retreat."
"well……"
Guo Jia sighed, now he no longer had to worry about it, Zhang Liao made the decision for him.
"Send the order and the entire army retreats."
"promise."
On the other side, Zhang Liao and Zhang He were fighting fiercely, but they heard the Korean army shouting "reinforcements are coming", which made Zhang Liao's face instantly gloomy.
In an instant, Zhang Liao thought of a lot in his mind. Although it was not as comprehensive as Guo Jia's, it was more clear from his own perspective.
Zhang Liao finally had this opportunity to lead the army, and he had already exceeded the order given by King Qin. There was no need to take such a big risk for this small feat. It would be nice to win, but the price of losing was something he couldn't afford.
, so before being absolutely sure, Zhang Liao thought it was better to be more cautious.
"If you dare to be distracted when fighting with me, you will die."
Zhang He was furious and stabbed Zhang Liao's throat with his spear, but Zhang Liao easily avoided it.
"Today we have a battle, that's it. We will fight at Rutou tomorrow."
After Zhang Liao said harsh words, he immediately turned his horse's head and retreated to the rear. At the same time, he said to the guards around him: "Go tell the military advisor to withdraw the troops immediately."
"promise."
Woo woo woo...
The horn of the Qin army's retreat sounded throughout the battlefield. The Qin army's cavalry showed unwillingness, but they did not dare to disobey the military order and chose to retreat immediately.
After Jiang Song heard the clarion call to withdraw, he shot Nangong Chang Wanhuo Ma Xiong back with two consecutive shots, and said calmly: "Next time we meet, you won't be so lucky."
After saying this, Jiang Song decisively rode back.
Nangong Changwan and Ma Xiong both had ugly expressions on their faces. Neither of them expected that neither of them could suppress Jiang Song, and even had a faint tendency to be suppressed by Jiang Song. This was undoubtedly a huge shame for the two of them.
.
"Wherever you run, stay alive."
Ma Xiong shouted angrily, and then he and Nangong Changwan also chased after him. However, if Jiang Song wanted to leave, they just couldn't keep him.
As for the situation on Zhao Yun's side, it has changed from being suppressed by General Heng Ha to fighting against the two generals.
That's right, with 117 points of force, Zhao Yun entered a special state that was about to break through, but he single-handedly suppressed the two generals Heng Ha, who were both 116.
After hearing the clarion call to retreat, Zhao Yun woke up from this state, and couldn't help but secretly thought that it was a pity. He obviously felt that he was just a little short of being able to break through and enter a new realm. This withdrawal order was too ill-timed.
It's time.
"I'll take your lives next time."
Zhao Yun said coldly, and then rode back.
General Hengha, who was dripping with cold sweat, tacitly agreed not to pursue him for fear of offending this evil star.
