Chapter 260 Who is the oriole (2)
"Qin Army."
Looking at the ignition lights appearing in the night, they are connected together. A dark line appears in Li Yu's eyes. Against the backdrop of the raging fires that have not yet been extinguished in the Chu army camp, the line reflects a kind of black light. In addition to the two camps of the Knights and the Palace Guards of the Zhao Palace led by Li Yu, the only one among the countries is the Qin army that is powerful and the Qin army that is famous and intimidating.
"I didn't expect that Liao still missed a little."
Looking at the Qin army that was as lush as abyss, Wang Liao said with some self-deprecating words. He had also thought that the Qin army had intervened in this battle, and that the Qin army and the coalition forces would join forces to attack Yongcheng. However, he never thought that the Qin army would appear after the coalition forces retreated. He was worthy of being a Qin army soldier who was famous all over the world. His confidence and means made Wang Liao admire him.
"Mr.'s calculation is complete, but some people will be unexpected."
From the huge array that gradually appeared, Li Yu still couldn't forget to comfort Wang Liao. He didn't want this great military strategist to be depressed due to this setback. Li Yu, who was just confident, did not expect that his oriole would become a mantis in the eyes of others. It was really unpredictable.
"The general doesn't need to comfort him, Liao knows it." Hearing Li Yu's comfort, Wang Liao smiled mockingly, but did not show any decadent look. So what about the Qin army? He will defeat the other side one day, and he will definitely.
"It's good to send an order. Wei Shangde and Liang Su's troops came to Nancheng to gather." Seeing Wang Liao's expression as usual, Li Yu felt relieved and told the order to the personal guards beside him.
After quickly retreating into Yongcheng, Li Yu saw Lin Jian with a tired face. He didn't have time to greet him and said directly: "Elder General, Qin army is coming. I hope the old general gathers the soldiers and comes to defend the city."
"good."
Without any hesitation, Lin Jian immediately asked him to go to the city to collect the soldiers and recall the Zhao army soldiers who were chasing the coalition soldiers. Not to mention that Li Yu held an axe, even the King of Zhao had already ordered it. Li Yu decided on the southern border, and Lin Jian put his position well. Lin Jian was relieved to hand over the military affairs in Yongcheng. This military affairs would be left to the young man to decide. As for military achievements, he was useless to ask for those who wanted them. He did not want to ascend to the position of the general. As long as he defended Yongcheng, the military achievements this time would be enough for his descendants to enjoy.
It has to be said that Zhao Jun is still very disciplined. Even though he saw that the combat function was easily obtained, he would return to the city quickly after receiving the order.
Looking at the tens of thousands of Zhao soldiers who came to guard the city, Li Yu couldn't help but sigh at Lian Po's ability to train soldiers. These were all new recruits who had only been in the army for half a year. It was quite rare to have such a moment. However, when Li Yu saw those faces with infinite fatigue in his perseverance, his heart sank. Although the morale of the army was strong, he was all tired.
After five days and nights of guarding the city, the Zhao army soldiers in Yongcheng were exhausted, and many of them were overdrawn. Especially after defeating the coalition forces, the remaining morale of the army found a mouthful of venting. At this time, if they were allowed to fight against the Qin army, which was raising their strength, it would be like hitting stones with eggs and causing casualties.
I have to say that the time the Qin army chose was very good.
The victory over the coalition forces. The aura that the Zhao army in Yongcheng struggled to maintain completely dissipated and had no combat power. Li Yu could only rely on the 10,000 infantry soldiers he brought, and even the thousands of cavalry lost most of their combat power after rushing to the coalition forces.
Thinking of the Qin army's attack, for some reason, a name suddenly popped up in Li Yu's mind, which made him feel trembling. With his existing military strength, it was still a bit dangerous to resist the Qin army's attack. Even if the Qin army was not large, he could hide and not be discovered by his scouts. The number of Qin army was at most 20,000 to 30,000 yuan. But facing the Qin army's famous general who might be the future unification of the six kingdoms, Li Yu was not sure. Because the Qin general's reputation was too high. He was a famous general who was invincible with his father Li Mu, but he knew how much he had.
"The Qin army is very calculating." Wang Liao, who came back to his senses from the attack, had to secretly admire the Qin army's time to choose.
"Elder General, let your soldiers rest first." Seeing Wei Shangde and Liang Su lead their troops to come, Li Yu said to Lin Jian. Now the infantry soldiers led by him can only resist for a while, so that the soldiers in Yongcheng can rest, hoping that they can restore some combat power and have one more chance of victory.
"Okay." Lin Jian also knew that his soldiers were unable to fight again. Fortunately, Li Yu brought tens of thousands of new forces, otherwise it would be basically no suspense to face the Qin army, which was as powerful as the siege and field battles alone. Fortunately, the Qin army did not attack at the same time as the coalition forces, otherwise Yongcheng would have been destroyed long ago.
"Look, the Qin army has stopped."
Someone shouted, and Li Yu then looked at the Qin army in the distance, and saw that the black wave stopped on the flat ground five hundred steps away from the city. Countless torches and the firelight of the Chu army camp reflected the black wave into a magnificent torrent.
But after a few breaths, several fire points separated from the black torrent, quickly approached the city wall, and stopped fifty steps away from the city wall, allowing the people on the city wall to see the outlines of several cavalrymen.
"Zhongsun Yan."
"promise."
The city gate of the south city opened again, and the chief guard Zhongsun Yan and several guards met the Qin soldiers. The few of them didn't know what they had talked about. The Qin soldiers quickly returned to their original formation, and Zhongsun Yan also rushed back to the city quickly.
"General."
After taking the bamboo slips from Zhongsun Yan's hand, Li Yu opened them and saw that there was only a dark red word on it: Battle.
With a helpless smile, Li Yu looked at the black wave that looked extremely majestic and vast in the distance, and his heart was filled with fighting spirit.
"General, don't fight."
Seeing the word full of infinite fighting spirit, Lin Jian's eyelids twitched and he couldn't help but speak out. With his current combat power, defending the city is the most secure tactic. The opponent is a famous Qin army soldier. Even the veteran Lian Po may not be able to defeat the opponent with the same force. It is still necessary that Lian Po belongs to all the soldiers of the Zhao people.
"Elder General, this battle, Yu has to fight." Li Yu was moved when he heard the worries in Lin Jian's words, and he could only smile bitterly. He had to respond to this battle, otherwise, with the strength of the Qin army to wait for work and cooperate with the coalition forces that had not yet been completely defeated, Yongcheng's troops would not be able to defend at all.
"Yes, the general must fight."
Wang Liao, who has learned from military strategists since childhood, knew very well. He knew clearly that the Zhao army in Yongcheng in front of him was at the end of his strength, and the only ones he could rely on were the 10,000 soldiers led by Li Yu, and the hundreds of tigers who had not yet been dispatched. If Li Yu did not dare to respond, the Zhao army, whose morale was in high spirits, would definitely be a huge blow to the Zhao army, which was in high spirits, and the morale of the army would even be unstable. At this time, the soldiers of the Zhao army in Yongcheng were extremely tired. Once the morale and morale fell, it would be no different from the farmers, so how could they talk about defending the city? Only in one battle can they break the invincible momentum of the Qin army and strive for the opportunity to win.
He looked at the young man in white in surprise, and Lin Jian looked at Li Yu with some concern. He knew that he could not influence the amazing young general in front of him, but he couldn't bear to see the other party's personal danger.
"Elder General, we won and lost the fate of Zhao State, and we will have no regrets even if we die." Li Yu knew that defending the city was the safest and most secure way at present, but in that case, even if we could defend Yongcheng, it would cause all the tens of thousands of soldiers in the city to suffer from war training. With less than 100,000 soldiers to restrain Gongcheng, and the 200,000 elite Wei army of Mengmen, Li Yu knew very well that if their Yongcheng soldiers suffered too much loss, it would make Gongcheng's 200,000 Wei army ready to move, and the reputation of the general Lian Po could not intimidate the generals of the Wei army to make achievements.
The rest of the troops in Zhao State have been restrained by the countries. The tens of thousands of soldiers in Yongcheng are the last barrier to the Shangdang land of Zhao State. Once the losses are heavy, the 50,000 soldiers led by Lian Po cannot support the defense of the Shangdang land. If the Shangdang land falls into the hands of the various countries, not only will the loss of the Shi Nie of Gaodu, Zhao State will face crisis at all times, and the future of Zhao State is worrying.
Li Yu, who had died once, was afraid of death, even more than anyone else. However, as a member of the nobles of vested interests, his responsibilities forced him to enter into danger. In any case, he had to protect the Zhao soldiers in Yongcheng. As long as he survived this disaster, tens of thousands of soldiers who had experienced the baptism of blood and fire would become a true elite army and an unparalleled barrier to the southern border of Zhao. Li Yu, who had original consciousness in his bones, would not watch tens of thousands of robes die in battle. This is the bloodiness of a man, and even if he fought with the Qin army, there might not be no chance of victory.
"Okay, I am worthy of being the star of my Great Zhao. I will join the general to meet the Qin army." Lin Jian admired Li Yu's bloodiness very much, as if he had found his passion when he was young.
As a veteran, Lin Jian naturally knew the price to pay to defend the city. The Qin army soldiers who were invincible were not casually said, but proved by the destruction of the cities of the six Shandong countries. Even though there were not many Qin army soldiers, it only took 20,000. The Zhao army soldiers who had been exhausted for a long battle and the 10,000 soldiers under Li Yu's troops were unable to resist. Although the hundreds of thousands of coalition forces were defeated, the foundation was there. Once they breathed, it was the time for Yongcheng to fall.
"No, Yu wants to hand over a heavy burden to the old general. I hope the old general will not blame Yu Zhi for being reckless." A trace of emotion flashed in his eyes, and Li Yu said to Lin Jian with a smile.
"I know, okay, I will return triumphantly in this city." Seeing Li Yu's expression, Lin Jian knew what the other party wanted to say, and there was a deep sense of loss in his tone. He was old after all.
"In this way, the burden of Yongcheng is so strong that Yu dares to entrust the veteran general." Li Yu did not have full confidence in the fight against the Qin army this time. If he was defeated, the situation in Yongcheng could only be supported by this veteran general. As long as he could withstand the Qin army's edge, even if he was defeated, even if Lian Po returned to the army and cooperated with the backup plan they left behind, Shangdang would have a chance of crisis.
"Don't worry, General, people are in the city." Lin Jian said solemnly in the face of the young general's firm face.
"The order was sent by Wei Shangde, Liang Su's troops followed the general out of the city to fight against the Qin army."
After making up his mind to fight, Li Yu did not delay. Since he had no choice but to fight, he only wanted to fight. Thinking that the one who was about to fight was the commander of the Qin army who was famous for his later generations, the blood in Li Yu's body couldn't help but boil, so he used the name of Chun Jun in his hand to test the opponent's invincibility.
