Chapter 1782:
Zhao She's 50,000-strong army arrived at Anyang, but only the last 30,000-odd soldiers and horses were left. The more than 20,000 prisoners who were originally released and admitted had deserted without dying on the battlefield.
Zhao She had no choice but to continue marching and had already arrived at Anyang. As long as he passed this city, there was still hope, and Anyang's geographical location was very special.
Anyang City is sandwiched in the middle of two mountain ranges, surrounded by mountains, and surrounded together like a basin, and Anyang is a valve. As long as this valve is not opened, Zhao Jun cannot get out. Of course, Zhao Jun has a second
The only option is to cross the long mountain range, but once over, Zhao Jun's time will be very narrow.
"Father! We've arrived in Anyang!" Zhao Kuo pointed to the city in front of him. Although this city was not considered to have high walls and thick walls, it occupied a dangerous location.
Zhao She rode out from behind Zhao Kuo on his war horse, stroked his eyebrows with his left hand, looked ahead, and then said: "Zhao Kuo! Let the city guard open the door quickly! Don't waste time!"
"Yes!" Zhao Kuo accepted the general's order, mounted his horse, and ran towards the city with two guards at great speed.
"Listen to the defenders on the city wall! Open the city gate quickly! This is our army's order!" Zhao Kuo took out the tiger charm in his arms, his expression was calm, and he secretly said that he could breathe a sigh of relief.
"Hahahahahahaha! Zhao Kuo! You can see clearly! Who is this old man!" Everyone in the city shouted, Su Dingfang yelled in a rough voice, and stared at Zhao Kuo with a pair of black tiger eyes, as if he wanted to see
The long-awaited expression.
"No! Leave quickly!" Zhao Kuo originally thought that the guard at the city gate was trying to tease him, but when he took a closer look, he saw that the originally covered flag on the city wall was fluttering in the wind, and the words "Feng Lin" came into Zhao Kuo's eyes, and Zhao Kuo
How could he not be frightened and immediately turn the horse's head without even looking back? He urged the horse to go away. Staying here would be tantamount to asking for death.
"Fire arrows!" Nangong Shi saw Zhao Kuo about to leave, put down his wave and ordered to fire arrows. In an instant, arrows were flying like a rain of arrows, and the two guards behind Zhao Kuo were a little slower, but they were shot.
A hornet's nest.
Zhao Kuo survived the catastrophe, his back was so frightened that he was covered in cold sweat. He raised his riding whip and kept slapping the horse's buttocks, which made the horse neigh, but he did not dare to waste even a moment.
Looking at Zhao Kuo who was fleeing far away, Nangong Shi patted Su Dingfang on the shoulder and looked puzzled: "Why didn't you just order an arrow to be shot to death? Instead, you asked him to run back and report the news! Don't say it was intentional!"
"Hahahahaha!" Su Dingfang laughed, then looked at Zhao Kuoyuan's back, showing a thoughtful expression, pretending to be very serious: "I just want to scare him! I didn't think so much!"
Nangong Shi covered his face. He didn't expect Su Dingfang to spit out ivory from his mouth. After all, he was still a fool.
"Father... leave quickly!" Zhao Kuo ran back in a hurry, with a solemn expression. Before Zhao She could reply, he immediately said: "Anyang City has been occupied by the Korean army, and we can't get out!"
"Bring the map!" Zhao She heard Zhao Kuo's words and immediately stretched out his hand. Ma Chao behind him took out the map from his arms and slowly unfolded it.
The location of Anyang City is very important, and it has almost blocked all Zhao Jun's retreat plans. Anyang City is gone, and there are only two ways to break out. One is to lead soldiers to attack the city and take Anyang back, and the other is to cross the mountains.
, but that consumes a very long time. The most important thing is that the enemy troops are chasing behind the Zhao army. They waste time and energy by digging holes in the mountains. The Korean army is waiting for work in the back, recharging its energy. If it really fights, the ones who will suffer are still the ones who suffer.
Zhao Jun.
Zhao Kuo looked at the map! He seemed to have seen through Zhao She's hesitation, and he continued to speak: "Let's attack the city! It's a waste of time to climb over the mountains! And there are many poisonous insects and beasts in the forest! There is no specific route! And it's a waste of time.
!”
"How many people are there in Anyang City!" Zhao She was a little unsure about paying attention and raised his head to look at Zhao Kuo.
"The situation was quite urgent at that time! If I had been too slow, my life would have been lost. I didn't see clearly!" Zhao Kuo seemed to be frightened when he thought of the face-to-face scene just now. Fortunately, he was very lucky, otherwise he would really have to explain where he was.
"Oops!" Zhao She felt cold sweat on his back wet his clothes. At this moment, Zhao She was completely helpless and had nowhere to put his hands.
"Send my order to the general! Attack the city with the whole army!" Zhao She gritted his teeth and decided to fight to the death, or at worst, he would be defeated.
After Ma Chao received the general's order, he immediately turned over and mounted his war horse, the armor around him making a tinkling sound.
"Prepare for war!" Zhao Kuo also raised his whip and called to the soldiers who were sitting underground to recuperate.
Most of the soldiers have lost their previous vigor. They have been fleeing all the way and scrimping on food and clothing. Their combat effectiveness has dropped by more than one level. They originally thought they would have a good meal when they entered the city, but now it seems that there is still a fierce battle waiting for them.
"General! We haven't arrived in Anyang! Why are we still fighting!" A soldier seemed to be close to the breaking point in his heart. He could no longer suppress his inner doubts and asked immediately.
Zhao Kuo was also at a loss when he was asked. Getting angry would easily arouse their anger, but now exhorting them could only be counterproductive. Telling them the facts would be tantamount to lowering morale! After a while, Zhao Kuo had no choice but to say: "To live!"
"Don't be stunned! Cut down the trees! Build a ladder! Hurry!" Zhao Kuo called to the soldiers around him. When they fled Tunliu, they never thought they would attack the city! They didn't bring the ladder with them, and now they can only
Made from local materials.
"yes!"
"Report! The Yan army has been spotted in the east! Less than twenty miles away from here! Most of them are cavalry!" The scout was so embarrassed that he got off his horse and crawled to Zhao She.
"Report! Ten miles to the south! Fire! Mountain flag found! Sun Wu is chasing us!" The scout was in a very embarrassed state. He was hit by an arrow in the back and was covered in blood. It was very unlikely that he could come back alive.
