My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 754: Over Zhao troops? They are nothing but turtles trapped in a jar! Counterattack! Counterattack!

The increasingly slow brain finally came to a conclusion.

My Lord, am I dead?
I haven't even taken revenge yet, but I died?!
In the past, Ying Zheng blocked my way back to my country, preventing me from ascending the throne of King of Zhao.

Now, Ying Zheng’s brother will behead me in just one move, leaving me with no chance of survival.

I am not willing to accept this!!!
Zhao Yi's eyes were wide open with anger, but he could not stop his head from being thrown to the fortune teller behind him by Ying Chengjiao.

A long spear went down Zhao Yi's throat and into his brain. After completely cutting off Zhao Yi's remaining consciousness, it held Zhao Yi's head high in the air.

The fortune teller roared, "Lord Zhao Chunping is dead!"

"Those who surrender will not be killed!"

Behind Guafu, more than a thousand family soldiers and personal soldiers shouted excitedly: "Lord Zhao Chunping is dead!"

"Those who surrender will not be killed!!!"

Zhao Chong, who was consolidating the army, looked back in astonishment: "What?!"

"Chunping-kun, died in battle?!"

Zhao Ke, Fei Li and all the other Zhao generals subconsciously turned their heads to look in the direction of Guafu.

Then they saw the towering Qin army's banner and the equally towering head of Zhao Yi!

All Zhao generals widened their eyes.

How long has it been since the Qin army's ambush appeared?

No more than half a quarter of an hour at most.

Why did Zhao Yi die!!!
There was an uproar among the Zhao army, exclaiming:
"Even Chunping Jun died in battle! What should our army do?"

"I thought Chunping Jun was brave and valiant, but I never thought that all this was Qin Chang'an Jun's plan. Even Chunping Jun died at the hands of Qin Chang'an Jun. How can we fight this battle?"

"I surrender! Stop shooting! I surrender!"

Zhao Chong also clenched the reins, suppressed his anger, and roared, "I am Zhao Chong, the Chief of Police of the Great Zhao! I am the highest-ranking officer in this army, and the whole army must obey my orders!"

"The rear army will be transferred to the front army, and will be temporarily commanded by Captain Fei Chong."

"Order the commander Fei Chong to break out of the encirclement at all costs and return to Handan to provide assistance!"

"The front and center armies will attack Gushan together!"

"I will personally lead my troops to charge!"

The veins on Zhao Chong's neck bulged, and he roared with all his might: "Soldiers! Handan City is behind us!"

"Once Handan City falls, everything we have will be gone!"

"We can't retreat! We can't surrender! We have to fight!"

"The Qin army is powerful, but our Great Zhao also has more than 100,000 elite soldiers. How can the Qin army encircle and annihilate our army?"

"Pass on my order! Anyone who dares to abandon his weapons and surrender will be executed immediately!"

"If we can win this battle, I will advise the king to double the reward for the meritorious officials!"

"Soldiers, kill!!!"

As an important official standing at the pinnacle of power in the State of Zhao and one of the pillars of the Zhao royal family, Zhao Chong's words could gain the trust of many generals and soldiers.

More importantly, Zhao Chong did not lie.

Behind them is Handan!

Except for the city guards of Handan, all other troops would rise and fall together with Handan or the State of Zhao.

Whether for Zhao State or for themselves, they must fight!
Zhao Ke dismounted and ran towards the foot of the mountain, shouting, "Why do we need Si Kou to charge into the battle?"

"Pass this general's order!"

"My troops will follow me and attack Gushan!"

The negative impact of Zhao Yi's death in battle was quickly resolved by Zhao Chong, and the Zhao army gained a new supreme commander before the turmoil.

The personal charge of several generals completely ignited the fighting spirit of the soldiers.

Although more than 10,000 Zhao soldiers fled or surrendered because of the death of Zhao Yi and the siege, the remaining Zhao soldiers still roared unyieldingly at the Qin army standing on the top of the mountain:

"kill!!!"

However, the deafening shouts and cries of killing did not shake Wang Jian in the slightest.

Wang Jian did not even look at the Zhao troops rushing towards Gushan. He only watched the movements of Fei Chong's troops. After more than 5,000 Zhao troops successfully escaped from Xingdao, he calmly ordered: "Pass on my order."

"Falling Rock!"

The 40,000 Qin soldiers standing on the east side of the Xingdao heard the order and placed their hands on the stones.

"Hey! Ha! Drink!"

Accompanied by loud calls, two thousand stones weighing more than a thousand pounds and with relatively smooth surfaces rolled down the tunnel!

"Bang! Bang! Boom~~~"

The fat pet who was leading his troops to escape the ambush circle to the east looked up at the sound, and then his eyes suddenly shrank, and he shouted: "The Qin army is rolling stones! Get out of the way quickly!!!"

Fei Chong had already seen the rolling stones displayed by the Qin army on the top of the mountain. After all, the Qin army had too many reserves of rolling stones.

Fei Chong had long anticipated that the Qin army would push down boulders when they fled, so he did not hesitate to chop off dozens of soldiers' heads and forced the army to maintain a loose formation.

But when the Rolling Stones really hit, Fatty found that his preparations were meaningless.

The heavy boulders kept accelerating as they fell, and kept changing their directions due to collisions with the terrain, rushing down the mountain in an irregular manner, making it difficult to predict.

Even though the Zhao soldiers dodged left and right, they could only watch helplessly as the huge rocks rolled towards them, crushing them and the bodies of their comrades behind them into powder, leaving behind a bloody path and rubble all over the ground!

But it's not over.

The Qin soldiers standing on the top of the two mountains were not at all stingy with rolling stones like they were when they were defending the city.

As soon as the first batch of boulders were pushed down, the second batch of boulders came together and pushed down again with force.

Then came the third batch! The fourth batch! The fifth batch!

Fatty couldn't wait any longer and shouted, "Ignore the rolling stones!"

"All units maintain a loose formation and keep charging forward!"

"The previous kings of the Great Zhao are watching us! The Great Zhao will surely protect us!" While shouting, Fei Chong had already rushed forward on his horse.

The warhorse under his crotch carried the fat pet to avoid one rolling stone after another, but it could not avoid all the rolling stones!
at last.

A piece of rolling stone pierced the knee of the warhorse under Fatty Chong's crotch.

"Xu~~~"

The warhorse fell to the ground with a mournful cry, and the fat pet on its back was thrown several feet away.

The fat pet fell to the ground and felt great pain all over, but he forced himself to get up.

then.

A rolling stone is coming towards you.

The fat pet's limbs and bones were all turned into minced meat and stuck to the surface of the rolling stone!

As the stone rolled, the fat pet's flesh and blood mixed with the flesh and blood of other Zhao soldiers, making it difficult to distinguish them!

When all 50,000 boulders were pushed down, the entire pass was completely blocked by stones.

Only the blood and minced meat on the edge of the stone indicated that thousands of Zhao army soldiers were buried here!
Looking at the towering pile of stones and the fat pet that disappeared under the stone pestle, Fei Li cried out in grief: "Big Brother!!!"

The remaining Zhao army soldiers looked towards the eastern pass with horror in their eyes.

Using so many rolling stones to attack the fleeing Zhao army?

Qin Jun, are you crazy?

Zhao Chong dug his left fingernail deep into his palm and forced himself to stay calm: "The way home is blocked!"

"Then our army will fight its way out from the front!"

"Pass on my order that the rear army will be temporarily commanded by Captain Fei Li."

"Send a message to Captain Fei Li, tell the rear troops to stop returning eastwards and head directly north to Gushan Mountain. The entire army will attack the Qin army defenders!"

Fei Li roared, "Wei!"

"Comrades, charge! Take the mountain!"

The retreat route was cut off, which indeed made the Zhao army soldiers more desperate.

But it also inadvertently played the role of a last-ditch fight!

For a moment, the Zhao army soldiers charged towards the top of the mountain with a more determined attitude.

Looking at the red eyes of the Zhao army at the foot of the mountain, Wang Jian said calmly: "Pass on my order!"

"Commander Tu Sui's troops abandoned their crossbows and took up guns. They set up positions on the hillside of Gushan Mountain and used trenches to block the Zhao army."

"Commander Jingpo led his troops down the mountain to block the west of the Xingdao Road and replace the commander-in-chief's line of defense."

"Captain..."

"Commander Le Xun led 40,000 troops from the east to join the commander-in-chief."

Faced with the desperate counterattack of the Zhao army soldiers, Wang Jian was not moved at all.

Bai Qi is good at annihilation warfare, Li Mu is good at annihilation warfare, and Lian Po is good at annihilation warfare.

Isn’t Wang Jian good at annihilation warfare?
The Zhao army of just over 100,000 fell into the ambush. In Wang Jian's view, they were just turtles struggling in a jar.

Wang Jian even had enough energy to dispatch another 40,000 troops to support Ying Chengjiao!

After mobilizing troops to block all the space for the Zhao army to counterattack, Wang Jian smiled at Le Xun and said, "Tell the commander-in-chief."

"Under the wise command of the commander, his courage to lure the enemy, and his personal leadership, the Zhao army has no power to resist."

"Congratulations to the commander!"
-
"Did he really say that?"

Facing Ying Chengjiao's question, the somewhat confused Le Xun bowed again: "I have not changed a single word."

"This is all what the deputy general said!"

Ying Chengjiao smacked his lips and said, "This old man is so undisciplined!"

How could Ying Chengjiao not know that Wang Jian was trying to take credit for his achievements again?
But the war was not over yet, and Wang Jian was not in front of Ying Chengjiao. Ying Chengjiao really couldn't drag Wang Jian back and forth to claim the credit at this time.

Le Xun was even more confused: "Coach?"

Wang Jian praised Ying Chengjiao with all kinds of flattering words and attributed all the credit to Ying Chengjiao.

This has left Le Xun very puzzled.

Instead of being happy, Ying Chengjiao angrily scolded Wang Jian.

This made Le Xun even more puzzled.

Didn’t Yang Wengzi say that humility is not popular in the Qin Dynasty, and that the first thing a general in the Qin Dynasty has to do is to learn to grab credit?
How come this is different from what Yang Wengzi said?

Ying Chengjiao came back to his senses and said solemnly, "These 40,000 fresh troops will be used to supplement the troops of Commandant Su Jiao and Commandant Peng Yue first, and then to supplement my personal soldiers. The rest will be under the command of Commandant Le Xun."

"All the troops are exhausted. Captain Le will give his all in this battle!"

Ying Chengjiao directly handed over the main attack task of this battle to Le Xun.

Le Xun did not refuse at all, and even happily bowed and said: "I am willing to die for you, the commander-in-chief!"

Ying Chengjiao nodded slightly, then rode westward, looking at the Qin army who had already retreated to the west side of the Xingdao to lick their wounds, and said in a deep voice: "Soldiers!"

"The Zhao army that was chasing our army has fallen into our ambush."

"The main force of our army has arrived. This Zhao army will definitely be defeated!"

"However, the complete destruction of this Zhao army is not enough to wash away the blood of our fallen comrades, nor will it allow you to gain military merit!"

"Soldiers!"

"I intend to counterattack Handan!"

"Do the generals still have the strength to fight again?!"

The Qin soldiers who had experienced fierce battles stood up one by one, supporting themselves with their weapons.

A pair of tired but murderous eyes looked at Ying Chengjiao.

More than 70,000 remaining soldiers roared in unison:
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"
