87. Drum Rumble

Xinlingjun in Guanglang City did not sleep all night and was constantly patrolling the city defense.

More than 100,000 Wei troops maintained the highest degree of vigilance, and Jin Bi personally led people to patrol the surroundings.

In the early morning, several Wei soldiers guarding the tunnel entrance could not stand it anymore and wanted to take a rest against the wall.

He was actually directly slashed by Jin Bi who was inspecting here.

"Did Zhao Kuo forget that he had attacked the Qin army at this time and captured Zheng Anping alive?"

The heads were quickly spread throughout the Wei army.

Unfortunately, even though he made such preparations, the expected night attack of Zhao army did not come.

Wei Jun was like spending countless energy to make a delicate Man and Han banquet, but after waiting for a day, he did not wait for the expected guests.

Zhao Kuo did not attack at night. Is he really planning to exchange the city for grain?

Xinlingjun's eyes were red and he yawned all over the sky, but he was also surprised by this fact.

There is absolutely no concept of a king or a father in this person's heart.

Can you do this yourself?

Xinling Jun couldn't help but feel excited, he didn't dare to think about it anymore.

Instead, wash your face with clean water to make yourself more energetic.

A messenger sent the news. King Zhao was very dissatisfied with the Wei army's back-sting behavior, but he was powerless.

Zhao State has no more army to fight.

The remaining few troops have no other ability except to defend Handan and the northern border.

Even the Zhongshan Kingdom, which has been destroyed for more than 30 years, has shown some revival.

At this time, the State of Zhao was like floating in the wind.

King Zhao even took the initiative to cede the land and cede Guanglang City to Gaoping Pass.

It is said that the King of Zhao originally planned to cede more, but someone advised him that the Zhao army won the battle, which was the time to be proud.

If too much land is cedeed, the victory will be in vain. The surrounding countries will also feel that Zhao is weak and can be bullied, and they may rush forward and divide Zhao.

Therefore, the condition for cede land proposed by King Zhao was to go from Guanglang City to Gaoping Pass.

That's all.

The Zhao army, who had no consideration for Zhao Kuo, was about to face a crisis of food cuts.

It's simply a joke.

Or they would exert their efforts to attack the Wei army occupying Changping and rescue Zhao Kuo.

Or they would just give up and cede the city, and exchange Zhao Kuo and 200,000 Zhao troops.

With such an iron-blooded strong army, are you afraid that the city you cut out will not be able to be brought back?

In this way, Zhao Kuo had long seen through the stingy nature of King Zhao when he made his own decision to exchange cities for grain.

As expected, as a messenger, Lian Po came to Guanglang City again.

This time he discussed with Xinlingjun about changing the city.

"The Qin army's defeated troops have been released and are running back to Duan. This is a good time for your army to launch a large-scale attack. If you continue to bargain with me like this, the time for the attack will be gone, and your army will lose a lot."

Xinling Jun yawned all over the sky, but he still asked for a price everywhere.

"Then Xinlingjun thinks that if we don't vent our bad luck in Qin Jun, who should we vent our vent?"

In the words, swords and swords are lit.

After several pulls, the food and grass that the Zhao army consumed for half a year was enough for half a year. A large number of hay was finally sent to the Zhao army, and Xinlingjun took over Gugu City and Duwei City again.

Xinling Jun also allocated an extra month of food and grass to exchange for Gaoping Pass.

"It's really that cheap Xinling Jun?" Gai Nie stood outside Gaoping Pass with his bag on his back and asked Zhao Kuo.

Even Wei people like him were disgusted with Xinlingjun's behavior.

But there is nothing to do.

Zhao Kuo smiled faintly and said, "Since I got the lead, when did I have someone to take advantage of me?"

Xingye, the Wei army, who took over Duwei City, had red eyes and was very tired, but he did not dare to close his eyes to sleep.

The heads of the Wei soldiers who were wandering were still hanging high on the city gate and kept shaking.

However, these Wei troops were very nervous for days. Although they had rotational rest, they were rushing to transport grain and receive cities during the day, and were very tired.

Although I forced myself to open my eyes to patrol at night, my reaction and mental state were still not good.

Bang!

A fierce drum sounded!

On Huanghua Ridge opposite Duwei City, torches suddenly rose everywhere, boiling in the sky.

It turned out to be like countless Zhao troops shouting to kill.

For a moment, the war drums were tight.

Xinlingjun, who had already fallen asleep, was so scared that he fell from the bed and fell to the ground.

But then, he forcibly stood up, took out his sword, walked out of the handsome tent, shouted loudly, and organized defense.

He had already set up a net of heaven and earth here, and was waiting for Zhao Jun to crash into it and to pieces.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

The sound of war drums was like a torrential rain, continuous.

There were still sounds of horse hooves far away from the Duwei City.

"Zhao army attacks at night, don't be confused, act as planned, everything is in my control!" Xinling Jun shouted.

But the Wei army was still very panicked.

When the Wei army outside the city met the Zhao cavalry, they ran back to the city without resisting, crying for their parents.

Many Wei troops trampled on each other, like headless flies. Many people were accidentally tripped and injured by their panicked robes.

Moaning on the ground.

I don’t know who took the lead and fired the crossbow placed on the city wall.

Then, whoosh! whoosh! whoosh! whoosh!

Although the sound of war drums was still tight, the Wei army on the city seemed to have calmed down and no longer be so panicked.

At the same time, when Gaoping closed, the fire was in a huge situation.

Xinlingjun was stunned.

Could it be that the Qin army succeeded in the Gaoping Pass of Zhao army at night?

Where did the Qin army emerge?

Will all the main forces of Zhao army attack him at night?

Even if I am well prepared, can I really defend myself against Zhao Jun who has been fighting for the rest of his life?

At that moment, Xinling Jun even had a slight idea of ​​escaping.

But then, he realized that if he went back like this, he would be ashamed of the entire Wei Kingdom.

What is the purpose of defrauding the tiger talisman by yourself?

Everything is for the State of Wei!

"Ah!" Wei Jun's screams kept coming from outside the city.

But after a long time, Zhao Jun still did not see him climbing the city.

Only then did Xinlingjun feel relieved that the arrow formation he prepared seemed to be effective.

"Continue to shoot arrows, don't stop!"

By the morning, the sound of war drums was still endless, and there was no trace of Zhao army under the Duwei City. Instead, many Wei soldiers who fled back were penetrated by their own arrows.

Xinlingjun felt something was wrong, so he asked someone to check it out and found out that it was on the opposite mountain.

It was the dozens of sheep that were the thinnest among the flocks sent by the Wei army to Zhao camp yesterday. The Zhao army hung upside down on the tree with ropes, and a drum was placed under the front hooves of each sheep.

Late last night, Zhao army untied the rope of the sheep's front hooves after shouting and killing. The sheep struggled to get rid of it. The sheep's hooves kicked around and hit the drum's face, making a thud, like thousands of troops, and the sound shook the sky.

Then a team of Zhao army cavalry drove away the Wei army in the distance of Duwei City, showing off their power and leaving.

The people of Wei thought that their complete preparations had finally succeeded, and the prepared crossbows were constantly poured out.

After a night, Wei Jun became weak and panting, but Zhao Jun did not even go in. He just rubbed the city gate and left.
Chapter completed!
