Zhao Ge rose from all sides, and the army was demoralized overnight.
The physical fatigue caused by the hard battles of the Zhao army's side cavalry in recent days, the psychological pressure brought by the arrival of the main force of the Qin army, and the mental torture of Zhao Ge from all sides, made this army that had been at war with the wolf tribe for decades
For the first time, the undefeated elite suffered a moral collapse.
Of course, in this process, Zhao Wangyan's series of sexy operations are also indispensable.
"We lost." Li Mu stood outside Yingzheng in the night, listening to the familiar singing in the distance, and said sadly in his heart.
"General, we still have 50,000 to 60,000 capable soldiers. Although the Qin army is large, it is not impossible for us to break through." Although Sima Shang also knew that the situation was critical at this time, he still had to muster the fighting spirit of General Li Mu.
Because only in this way can this side rider have a chance of survival.
"The military has no morale to fight. If we continue to fight, it is just to bring more military exploits to the Qin army. We can't win." Li Mu said helplessly.
"Just because of the singing on all sides?" Sima Shang said unconvinced.
"You are not from the frontier, and you don't understand the significance of these songs to the soldiers. During the battle with the wolf tribe, these were not only the voices of the soldiers from their hometown, but also their belief in fighting. Now, this belief
No more. An army without faith can only become a second-rate army at best, and a second-rate army cannot escape when faced with the current situation." Li Mu said.
"Well, if the king could have sent reinforcements earlier, why would we be like this?" Sima Shang didn't know what to say at this time.
"I am also responsible for this matter. From the beginning to the end, the king and I failed to coordinate our strategies. If I think about it at this time, if I had really followed the king's wishes, I might not be in the current predicament.
Already." At this time, Li Mu actually hated himself for being a smart person.
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. Let's prepare for the final battle. When the morning sun comes to this land again, it will be the time for the Qin army to attack." Li Mu said.
"Yes." Sima Shang didn't say much after hearing this, it was just a battle.
······
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning broke through the darkness, just as Li Mu expected, the Qin army launched an attack. This time, the balance of forces between the two sides was completely reversed. It was no longer the Zhao army's side cavalry that besieged the Qin army, but the Qin army's attack.
It was the Qin army who used twice the force to besiege the Zhao army's side cavalry who had lost their morale.
On the battlefield where the combined strength of both sides exceeded 200,000, a strange scene occurred. The Qin army took the cavalry as the vanguard and turned into sharp arrows and rushed into the Zhao army, quickly dividing the Zhao army. After that, there were
Countless Qin infantry quickly filled the gap left by the forward charge of their own cavalry.
Suddenly, the huge Zhao Army side cavalry was divided into smaller groups, and what was even more strange was that these groups seemed to have no will to resist, whether in the previous charge of the Qin Army cavalry or in the
Later, the Qin army's infantry surrounded him.
The failure of Zhao Jun's side cavalry actually caused a strange silence on this huge battlefield. Most of Zhao Jun's side cavalry were observing the robes around them, as if waiting for the opponent to explode, as if they were waiting.
The opponent's surrender.
"The Zhao army's side cavalry has been defeated." Huan Jue, who was in the Qin army's rear formation, climbed up and looked into the distance. He could hear the answer he wanted from the sound of fighting coming from the battlefield.
"They have been defeated since yesterday." Bai Ling couldn't help but clenched the sword in his hand and said excitedly.
At this time, in a place dozens of miles away, 50,000 Zhao reinforcements from the Zhao capital were marching here, but the news from the front had already reached here.
"Li Mu and his side cavalry are surrounded?" General Zhao was shocked when he heard the scout's report.
"Yes, general, the frontier cavalry has now been completely surrounded by the Qin army." the scout replied.
"The Qin army is so fast." General Zhao said subconsciously.
"Withdraw troops." After reacting, General Zhao's army calmly issued an order that was not very calm.
The soldiers and horses in my hands are the last elite of Zhao State. If they are lost here, Zhao State will really have no hope. The general of Zhao Army, who has already retreated before coming to the battlefield, said this to himself in his heart.
.
The last glimmer of hope for Zhao Jun's cavalry was thus cut off, or to be more precise, they had no hope of their own from the beginning to the end.
When they left Yanmen County, their current outcome was already decided.
The Zhao army's side cavalry, who had lost their fighting spirit, faced a Qin army twice their own size, and chose to surrender after a weak resistance. The Qin army did not carry out too many killings because of its own plan.
The confrontation between the two most powerful armies of the world ended in such a quiet way.
At night, the Qin army camp, which had completely won the victory, did not fall into a carnival because of the victory during the day. Instead, everything was as usual. The war was about to end. Their happiness did not lie in celebrating here, which stimulated Zhao.
The sensitive and suspicious mind of the soldiers.
Their real happiness lies in returning to Qin and their own homes. That is the source of their happiness. They risk their lives and fight here. Fundamentally speaking, they are trying to change their families and their own lives.
social status.
In Qin, for ordinary people, military merit is the most practical thing and the fairest thing.
Under the walls of the Zhao capital, it took the Zhao army seven days to reach forty miles south of where the Qin and Zhao armies fought, but when they returned to the Zhao capital, it only took two days.
"Li Mu was defeated?" Zhao Wangyan looked at the Zhao army leader with a defeated face, and felt his heart become cold.
"Yes, Your Majesty, it was all Li Mu who was incompetent. The main force of the Qin army only arrived for a day, and Li Mu and his 70,000 troops were defeated. If I hadn't been careful, I would have been almost overtaken by the Qin army."
General Zhao Jun stated.
What General Zhao said was true, but it didn't sound like the truth.
"Seventy thousand frontier riders only lasted one day?" Zhao Wangyan asked in disbelief.
At this time, he still remembered what his late father said to him before he died: Zhao Jun's side cavalry is the last pillar of Zhao's country, and it is a trump card that should not be used unless it is absolutely necessary.
But such an elite army could not last even one day.
Is Li Mu incompetent, or is the Qin army too strong? Or is there really no hope for Zhao? For a moment, Zhao Wangyan experienced real despair, and he thought of Han Wangan whom he had met in Xinzheng.
However, how did King Yan of Zhao know that the Zhao Army's Bianqiu was not defeated in one day? The war between the Zhao Army's Bianqiu and the Qin Army had already begun when the Qin Army took its first step into the State of Zhao.
