Chapter 754: More than 100,000 Zhao Troops? They Are Nothing but Turtles Trapped in a Jar! Counterattack! Counterattack!
The increasingly slow brain finally came to a conclusion.
I am dead?
I have not yet taken revenge, but I am dead? !
In the past, Ying Zheng blocked my way back to my country, so that I could not ascend to the throne of King Zhao.
Now, Ying Zheng's brother cut off my head in one round, leaving me no way to survive.
I am unwilling to accept this! ! !
Zhao Yi's eyes were wide open with anger, but he could not stop his head from being thrown to the fortune teller behind him by Ying Chengjiao.
A long spear went down Zhao Yi's throat and into Zhao Yi's brain. After completely cutting off Zhao Yi's remaining consciousness, it held Zhao Yi's head high in the air.
Guafu roared: "Zhao Chunping is dead!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
Behind Guafu, more than a thousand family soldiers and personal soldiers roared excitedly: "Zhao Chunping is dead!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!!!"
Zhao Chong, who was stabilizing the army, looked back in shock: "What?!"
"Chunping, died in battle?!"
Zhao Ke, Fei Li and all other Zhao generals subconsciously looked back in Guafu's direction.
Then they saw the towering Qin army banner and the equally towering head of Zhao Yi!
All Zhao generals widened their eyes.
How long had it been since the Qin army's ambush appeared?
At most, it was only half a quarter of an hour.
How did Zhao Yi die!!!
There was an uproar among the Zhao army:
"Even Chunping Jun died in the battle! What should our army do!"
"I thought Chunping Jun was brave, but I never thought that all this was Qin Chang'an Jun's plan. Even Chunping Jun died at the hands of Qin Chang'an Jun. How can we fight this battle!"
"I am willing to surrender! Don't shoot anymore! I am willing to surrender!"
Zhao Chong also tightened the reins, suppressed his anger, and roared hoarsely: "I am Zhao Chong, the chief of the Zhao army! Now I have the highest rank in this army, and the whole army will listen to my orders for the time being!"
"The rear army will be transferred to the front army, and the commander Fei Chong will be in charge temporarily."
"Send the order to the commander Fei Chong to break out of the encirclement at all costs and return to support Handan!"
"The front and middle armies will attack Gushan together!"
"I will personally lead my troops to charge!"
Zhao Chong's neck veins bulged, and he roared with all his might: "Soldiers! Behind us is Handan City!"
"Once Handan City falls, everything we have will be gone!"
"We can't retreat! We can't surrender! We have to fight!"
"The Qin army is powerful, but our Zhao also has more than 100,000 elite soldiers. How can the Qin army annihilate our army!"
"Pass on my order! Anyone who dares to abandon his weapons and surrender will be executed immediately!"
"If we can win this battle, I will persuade the king to double the reward for the meritorious officials!"
"Soldiers, kill!!!"
As a senior official standing at the pinnacle of Zhao's power and one of the pillars of Zhao's royal family, Zhao Chong's words can gain the trust of many soldiers.
More importantly, Zhao Chong did not lie.
Behind them is Handan!
Except for the city guards of Handan City, all other troops would rise and fall with Handan City or the State of Zhao.
Whether for the State of Zhao or for themselves, they must fight!
Zhao Ke turned over and dismounted, ran to the foot of the mountain, and shouted: "Why bother Si Kou to charge?"
"Pass on my order!"
"My troops will follow me and attack Gushan!"
The negative impact of Zhao Yi's death was quickly resolved by Zhao Chong, and the Zhao army had a new supreme commander before the turmoil.
The personal charge of several generals completely ignited the fighting spirit of the soldiers.
Although more than 10,000 Zhao soldiers fled or surrendered because of Zhao Yi's death and being surrounded, the remaining Zhao soldiers still roared unyieldingly at the Qin army standing on the top of the mountain:
"Kill!!!"
However, this deafening shouting and killing did not shake Wang Jian at all.
Wang Jian didn't even look at the Zhao troops rushing towards Gushan Mountain. He just watched the movements of Fei Chong's troops. After more than 5,000 Zhao troops successfully escaped from the Xingdao, he calmly ordered: "Pass on my order."
"Drop the rolling stones!"
The 40,000 Qin troops standing on the east side of the Xingdao heard the order and dropped their hands on the stones.
"Hey! Ha! Hey!"
Accompanied by a loud call, two thousand stones weighing more than a thousand pounds and with relatively smooth surfaces rolled down the Xingdao!
"Bang! Bang! Boom~~~"
Fei Chong, who was leading his troops to escape the ambush circle to the east, looked up at the sound, and then his eyes suddenly shrank, and he hurriedly shouted: "The Qin army's rolling stones are coming! Get out of the way quickly!!!"
Fei Chong had already seen the rolling stones displayed by the Qin army on the top of the mountain. After all, the Qin army had too many rolling stones in stock.
Fei Chong had expected that the Qin army would roll down the boulders when they were fleeing, so he did not hesitate to chop off dozens of soldiers' heads and forced the army to maintain a loose formation.
But when the boulders really came, Fei Chong found that his preparation was meaningless.
The heavy boulders kept accelerating on the way down, and kept changing their directions due to collisions with the terrain, rushing down the mountain without any rules, making it difficult to predict.
Even if the Zhao soldiers dodged left and right, they could only watch the boulders rolling towards them, and then crushed them and their comrades behind them into powder, leaving behind a bloody road and rubble everywhere!
But that's not all.
The Qin soldiers standing on the top of the two mountains were not as stingy with the boulders as they were when defending the city.
As soon as the first batch of boulders was pushed down, the second batch of boulders was pushed down again.
Then came the third batch! The fourth batch! The fifth batch!
Fatty didn't dare to wait any longer and shouted: "Ignore the rolling stones!"
"All units maintain a loose formation and keep charging forward!"
"The previous kings of the Great Zhao are watching us! The Great Zhao will surely protect us!"
While shouting, Fei Chong had already rushed forward.
The warhorse under his crotch carried Fei Chong to avoid one rolling stone after another, but he could not avoid all the rolling stones!
Finally.
A fragment of a rolling stone shot through the knee of the warhorse under Fei Chong's crotch.
"Ah~~~"
The warhorse fell to the ground with a wail, and also threw Fei Chong on the horse's back several feet away.
Fat Chong, who fell to the ground, felt severe pain all over his body, but he barely got up by supporting his body.
And then.
A rolling stone came towards him.
All the limbs of Fei Chong turned into minced meat and stuck to the surface of the rolling stone!
As the rolling stone rolled, the flesh and blood of Fei Chong were mixed with the flesh and blood of other Zhao soldiers, making it difficult to distinguish!
When all 50,000 rolling stones were pushed down, the entire pass was completely blocked by stones.
Only the blood and minced meat on the edge of the stone indicated that thousands of Zhao soldiers were buried here!
Looking at the towering stone pile and the fat pet that disappeared under the stone pestle, Fei Li cried out in grief: "Brother!!!"
The rest of the Zhao soldiers looked at the east pass with horror.
Using so many rolling stones to attack the fleeing Zhao army?
Is the Qin army crazy!
Zhao Chong's left fingernail dug deep into his palm, forcing himself to stay calm: "The way back is cut off!"
"Then our army will fight a bloody way out from the front!"
"Pass on this official order, the rear army will be temporarily commanded by the captain Fei Li."
"Pass on the captain Fei Li, the rear troops will stop returning to the east, go directly north to Gushan, and the whole army will attack the Qin army defenders!"
Fei Li roared: "Yes!"
"Brothers, charge! Seize the mountain!"
The retreat was cut off, which really made the Zhao soldiers more desperate.
But it also inadvertently played the effect of a last-ditch battle!
For a moment, the Zhao army soldiers charged to the top of the mountain with a more determined attitude.
Looking at the red eyes of the Zhao army soldiers at the foot of the mountain, Wang Jian said calmly: "Pass on my order!"
"Captain Tu Sui's troops abandon crossbows and hold guns, reserve positions on the hillside of Gushan Mountain, and use trenches to intercept the Zhao army."
"Captain Jingpo led his troops down the mountain, intercepted the west of Xingdao, and replaced the line held by the commander."
"Captain..."
"Captain Le Xun led 40,000 troops on the east side to join the commander."
Facing the desperate counterattack of the Zhao army soldiers, Wang Jian was not moved at all.
Bai Qi was good at annihilation battles, Li Mu was good at annihilation battles, and Lian Po was good at annihilation battles.
Wasn't he, Wang Jian, good at annihilation battles?
The Zhao army that fell into the ambush circle was just a turtle in a jar in Wang Jian's eyes.
Wang Jian even had the spare capacity to dispatch another 40,000 troops to help Ying Chengjiao!
After mobilizing troops to block all the space for the Zhao army to counterattack, Wang Jian smiled at Le Xun: "Tell the commander."
"Under the commander's wise command, courageous deception of the enemy, and leading by example, this Zhao army has no power to resist."
"Congratulations to the commander!"
——
"Did he really say that?"
Faced with Ying Chengjiao's question, the somewhat confused Le Xun bowed again: "I didn't change a word."
"These are all said by the deputy general!"
Ying Chengjiao smacked his lips: "This old man is not well-behaved!"
How could Ying Chengjiao not know that Wang Jian was starting to take credit again?
But the war was not over yet, and Wang Jian was not in front of Ying Chengjiao. Ying Chengjiao really couldn't drag Wang Jian back and forth to take credit at this time.
Le Xun was even more confused: "Commander-in-chief?"
Wang Jian praised Ying Chengjiao with all kinds of flattering words and attributed all the credit to Ying Chengjiao.
This already puzzled Le Xun.
Ying Chengjiao was not only unhappy, but also scolded Wang Jian.
This puzzled Le Xun even more.
Didn't Yang Wengzi say that humility was not popular in Daqin, and the first thing to do as a general in Daqin was to learn to grab credit?
How come this is different from what Yang Wengzi said!
Ying Chengjiao came back to his senses and said solemnly: "These 40,000 fresh troops will first supplement the two divisions of Captain Su Jiao and Captain Peng Yue, and then supplement the personal soldiers of this general, and the rest will be under the command of Captain Le Xun."
"All the troops are exhausted, and Captain Le should work hard in this battle!"
Ying Chengjiao directly handed the main attack task of this battle to Le Xun.
Le Xun did not refuse at all, and even happily bowed his hands and said: "I am willing to die for the commander!"
Ying Chengjiao nodded slightly, then rode westward, looking at the Qin army who had already retreated to the west side of the Xingdao to lick their wounds, and said in a deep voice: "Soldiers!"
"The Zhao army that was chasing our army has fallen into our ambush."
"The main force of our army has arrived, and this Zhao army will definitely be defeated!"
"However, the complete destruction of this Zhao army is not enough to wash away the blood of the fallen comrades, and it will not allow you to gain military merit!"
"All the soldiers!"
"I want to counterattack Handan!"
"Do you have the strength to fight again?!"
One by one, the Qin soldiers who had experienced fierce battles stood up with their weapons to support their bodies.
A pair of tired but murderous eyes looked at Ying Chengjiao.
More than 70,000 remnants roared in unison:
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
