Chapter 712: An attack that starts but ends(2/2)

As a result, the attacks prepared by both sides came to an end.

In the next two days, the Qin army did not launch a real attack. They just used catapults to continuously throw stones at Handan. Zhao also withdrew the army to the city, leaving only a small number of soldiers to guard and control the catapults to fight with the Qin army.

The morale of the Qin army was so low that they could not even lift the royal tomb.

On the evening of the third day, Li Mu led the Great Wall Army non-stop all the way, and finally arrived ten miles north of Handan City.

"General, Handan is in front of us, and no Qin army scouts were found. Our scouts came to report that the Qin army did not directly attack the city except for sending a small number of catapults." Sima Shang said.

"Send the order, all soldiers will dismount immediately and rest for half an hour." Li Mu ordered.

Although the Great Wall Army's physical fitness is extremely strong, after all, they have been on the road for three consecutive days, and neither the soldiers nor the horses are in the best condition. If they are directly thrown into the battlefield, even if they win in the end, they will lose many more soldiers and increase unnecessary casualties.

After hearing the order, the Great Wall Army dismounted one after another, took out the water from their horse bags, took a few sips and put the kettle back.

It's not that they don't want to drink more, but drinking a lot of water or eating when the body is tired will make people more tired and unable to lift their spirits, which is not conducive to the subsequent battle.

No one whispered to each other, everyone did their own thing silently. After finishing, they stood aside or sat on the ground to rest.

When the rest time was over, Li Mu gave an order, and all the soldiers got on their horses at the same time and started to kill in the direction of Handan.

After crossing Handan City, Li Mu saw at a glance the catapults lined up outside the city and the Qin army next to them. Three of the catapults had been destroyed by the Zhao army, and there were still blood stains on the ground.

"Kill!" Li Mu shouted loudly, pouring all the inner energy in his body into the spear, mobilizing the power of the legion, and swept towards the Qin army.

The terrifying spear light dozens of feet long seemed to split the world into two, and the entire sky darkened.

The Qin army never expected that the Zhao army would come out at this time. By the time they reacted, it was already too late. They didn't even have time to hold up the battle formation, and Li Mu's attack had already fallen.

A terrifying crack hundreds of meters long appeared in the Qin army. All Qin soldiers who were directly hit disappeared instantly, and countless Qin soldiers flew backwards, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.

"Kill!" The Great Wall Army followed Li Mu closely and charged towards the Qin Army.

puff!

As the Great Wall Army's spears swept away, a series of bloody flowers burst out, and the Qin army fell to the ground like mowing grass.

"Stop fighting, we surrender!" I don't know who was the first to kneel on the ground and shout. Then, other Qin troops knelt on the ground and surrendered, as if they were infected.

Zhao Jun suddenly stopped and looked at Li Mu at the front. This was the first time they encountered the Qin Jun who was so unable to fight. They surrendered before the charge was over.

"Kneel down here and wait." Li Mu said to the Qin army, and then led the Great Wall Army towards the Qin army's camp.

"General, the general is in trouble, Zhao Jun is coming!" The guards rushed into the camp in a panic and reported to Wang Ling.

"The Zhao army really dares to leave the city? Beat the drum and order the whole army to follow me to fight." Wang Ling said coldly. He admitted that he could not capture Handan, but if Zhao thought that he could do it with a group of strong men he had just recruited,

To defeat him would be to look down on him too much.

"Zhao Jun is... a cavalryman." The guard said quickly.

"There is still a cavalry hidden in Zhao State? What's the flag?" Wang Ling's expression changed instantly.

"Wu'an Jun. Li." the guard said.
