Chapter 729

"Lord!"

Yin Duo, You Wuxie and others who were fighting on the side saw the injured Zhao Yang, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Zhao Yang was a tough guy. Although he was shot in the arm by an arrow and was seriously injured, he still just grunted, put his hand on Yin Duo's shoulder, and said in a low voice, "I'm fine..."

Having said that, Zhao Yang already clenched his teeth, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, and his face was extremely pale.

His shoulders were already trembling unconsciously, and he almost staggered, without falling down.

Fortunately, Zhao Yang still held back.

He knew that if he fell down at such a time, it would inevitably cause panic among the people, and Zhao Jun's morale would be sluggish...

"kill!"

The offensive launched by the coalition forces is still very fierce.

Many coalition soldiers have already climbed up to the top of the city along the ladder, and came into close contact with the enemy there.

During the fierce fight, the white snow has been dyed a bright red color!
The color of blood!

"boom!"

The city gate, which had long been battered and dilapidated, was smashed by the battering hammer with a loud noise.

What followed was countless coalition soldiers filing in.

"Hold on! Hold on!"

"Fire arrows!"

Around a city gate, the coalition forces and the Zhao army fought fiercely.

Qingji, who was watching the battle from afar at the central army's Dazhu of the coalition army, saw the opportunity, and immediately waved his hand, saying: "Meng Ben, I entrust the Huben Army and Habayashi Army to you! Be sure to capture this city gate. ! Kill in!"

"promise!"

Meng Ben immediately took the order and left.

The Yulin Army, the Huben Army, and the Suppressed Camp are known as the three elites of the Wu Kingdom, and their combat power is naturally beyond doubt.

In Wu's perennial foreign wars, these three elite divisions have made countless contributions and are famous all over the world!

"kill!"

With the participation of the Habayashi Army and the Huben Army, the battle at the gate of the city was still in a stalemate, and the balance of victory immediately tilted to the side of the coalition forces.

However, Zhao Jun is not a vegetarian either.

Relying on the tenacious fighting will and the reward offered by Zhao Yang, the generals of the Zhao army broke out with powerful combat power.

Relying on street fighting, Zhao Jun was able to mediate with the coalition forces to the end.

Zhao Jun fell into a disadvantage in this place, and when the city gate was breached, Zhao Jun from the other three directions rushed to reinforce.

The battle lasted for six hours. In the end, the coalition forces paid the price of tens of thousands of casualties, but still failed to capture Jinyang City.

Even so, as the defender of the city, Zhao Jun suffered even more severe casualties.

This is against common sense!

However, for Wu Jun, it is also reasonable.

Based on Qingji's estimation, the ratio of the coalition army's battle losses to that of Zhao's army should be about two to three.

No loss!

Especially Wu Jun, only killed and injured less than 500 people...

Basically, those who worked hard to attack the city and were used as cannon fodder were the soldiers of the Six-Jin Allied Forces.

Naturally, this situation cannot continue forever. Otherwise, if the princes of the Six Jin Dynasties settle their suspicions with Zhao Yang and join hands to deal with Wu Jun, Qingji will not be able to eat and walk around.

If Qingji ends up in the same fate as Zhi Boyao, wouldn't it be ridiculous?
At this time, Qingji had already seen that after this period of hard fighting, the Zhao army in Jinyang City was already at the end of its strength, and it would not be long before they jumped.

According to such a desperate offensive by the coalition forces, Jinyang City will be conquered within two days at most.

……

Frost and dew were heavy, and fine snow was flying in mid-air.

At this time, Qingji was lying on his own bed and did not fall asleep for a long time.

"kill!"

Suddenly there was a shout of killing.

what happened?

Could it be that Zhao Jun attacked the camp?
This thought came to Qingji's mind, and he immediately rejected it.

Because it is absolutely impossible for Zhao Yang to have the courage to hit a stone with an egg, put it to death, and then take the initiative to go out of the city to fight.

"Report-"

A guard hurriedly entered the tent, and reported to Qingji, "Your Majesty, Zhao's army has broken through!"

"Breakthrough?"

Qing Ji was not at all surprised that Zhao Yang would choose to break through.

Because there was no hope of defending the city and he was almost waiting to die, Zhao Yang could only choose to break out.

Before that, Qingji had ambushed [-] elite soldiers of Wu State in the north of Jinshui.

The only direction Zhao Jun would break out of was probably Dai State in the north of Jinyang City, or Zhongshan State.

"drive!"

Qingji immediately got into a military chariot and chased Zhao Jun on the north bank of Jinshui.

Those who accompanied him were all Wu Jun elites.

Such as the Huben Army, the Habayashi Army, and the trapped camp all followed Qingji to fight.

The armies of the other Six Jin princes, at the moment Zhao Jun chose to break out of the encirclement, all hurriedly pursued them.

"kill!"

The sound of shouting and killing all over the sky brightened the entire snow field.

The cold weather has already frozen the Jinshui River, but the thickness of the ice surface is not enough. The fleeing chariot inevitably got stuck in the ice layer, making it difficult to escape.

Wu Jun, who had been in ambush on the north bank of Jinshui for a long time, immediately lit the torches, and then swarmed up, constantly strangling the fleeing enemies.

Seeing that he had been ambushed and had no hope of escape, Zhao Yang had no choice but to return to Jinyang City in embarrassment.

In this battle, the coalition forces beheaded more than 5000 people and captured nearly [-] people.

This caused the Zhao family's troops to drop sharply, making it even more impossible to defend Jinyang City!

……

"Crack clap..."

The next day, when Qingji was about to give the order to attack the city, the gate of Jinyang City was slowly opened.

what happened?

In the snow, a group of unarmed scholar-bureaucrats, wearing white clothes, came out in linen and filial piety.

Their faces were all mournful, very sad.

The leader was a young man who was bare-chested, with a plain white filial belt on his forehead.

He was holding the black goat in one hand and Yugui in the other. He lowered his head with a gloomy expression, as if pleading guilty...

By the young man's side, Yin Duo, Zhao's retainer, followed.

Yin Duo was holding the tray with both hands, covered with crimson silk cloth, which seemed to be a seal.

"Could it be... the Zhao family has surrendered?"

Young Master Xi standing next to Qingji was quite puzzled.

It seems that there is only this explanation.

After all, the war has lasted to such an extent that Zhao Yang, who is alone, has lost even his main force, so why should he fight against the Seven-Nation Alliance led by Qingji?
Qingji immediately asked Goujian to go over, and after asking the reason, he finally learned the ins and outs of the matter.

Mrs. Zhao really surrendered!
Qingji then boarded a military chariot, surrounded by dozens of guards, and arrived at the gate of the city.

"Zhao Bolu, the heir of the Zhao family, see King Wu! King Wu... Ten thousand years!"

The young man named Zhao Bolu suppressed the grief and anger in his heart when he saw Qingji, knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and performed the sheep-raising ceremony!
