Lian Po blinked his eyes, and it took him several breaths to finally come back to his senses, and all the memories suddenly surged into his heart.

It's like rebirth from hell.

Zhao She stretched out her left hand, pulled Lian Po and sat up, leaning against a broken tree stump.

Lian Po looked around and found that there were bonfires everywhere wherever he looked. Then he raised his head a little and the obviously broken wall of Yuguan was in his eyes.

"Hold it?" Lian Po looked at Zhao She and said the first sentence.

Zhao She laughed and sat down next to Lian Po: "Of course, otherwise why would we be here?"

Lian Po thought for a while and asked, "How many casualties?"

Zhao She was silent for a long time, and said with a heavy face: "A lot, very many."

Lian Po sighed: "Tell me what happened."

Zhao She said: "It's actually very simple. I saw you suddenly start a war with the Qin army, and then took my cavalry out of the valley to attack the Qin army. You attracted most of their attention from the front, so I successfully broke through their defense line. The Qin army's general flag suddenly broke, and then the Qin army began to retreat. Le Cheng and I led our army to chase and wanted to kill Bai Qi. Then we just discovered that the Qin people took you with you and saved you."

Lian Po listened quietly to Zhao She's statement, and his eyes glanced around Zhao She.

Although Zhao She spoke very calmly and calmly, Lian Po was not the first time he went to the battlefield.

Judging from what Lian Po has observed now, the gauze wrapped around Zhao She's right arm and the obvious sword wound on her cheek can explain a lot.

Zhao She is not Lian Po. Lian Po can charge himself without listening to the king, but Zhao She definitely won’t.

So when Zhao She had to fight himself, the harsh situation and the fierce battle could be imagined.

Lian Po said: "So, did we defeat the Qin army?"

Zhao She laughed: "You can say that. But if you are honest, I can only say that you have temporarily repelled the Qin army. Our scouts just came to report that the Qin people set up camps about twenty miles away, and the battle between us has not ended yet."

Lian Po said unquestionably and asked, "How many people are left in the Longxiang Army?"

Zhao She hesitated for a moment and still answered: "Not half."

Lian Po clenched his fists and slowly let go after a while. The marks of the nails in his palms were extremely conspicuous.

He did not ask about the casualties of other troops again, not because he did not care, but... he did not dare to ask.

The famous general of Zhao State looked at Zhao She seriously: "We won a victory, occupied Yu Pass, and repelled Qin's reinforcements."

Zhao She said: "Yes."

Lian Po said: "Because we won, we can apply for more credit from the king after the war, so that the families who still sacrificed their robes can still receive more land and pensions."

Zhao She said: "Yes."

The two of them looked at each other and understood what each other was thinking.

Lian Po let out a long sigh: "Is there anything to eat?"

Zhao She took out a piece of fragrant horse thigh bone like a magic trick, and the horse meat on it was warm: "Eat it."

Lian Po nodded. He was so hungry that he was no longer polite. He started eating voraciously, and talked to Zhao She while eating.

"So, Bai Qi is not dead?"

"It shouldn't be dead. Although the retreat of the Qin army was very messy, at least some of the soldiers retreated calmly, making it difficult for us to pursue. I judged that the unit should be Bai Qi's personal guard. If Bai Qi died, the personal guard would not be so neat."

"So, did my spear shoot his flagpole?"

"I don't know this. At that time, I was very far away and I only saw the flagpole breaking suddenly."

"That must have been my ejaculation."

"You say yes, that's it."

"You should keep biting him tightly. We are cavalry and have a great advantage in speed. As long as you keep biting their rear wings, the Qin people will collapse sooner or later."

"No, in order to save you, I made my men marche at one or two nights, and then had another big battle with the Qin army. Their physical strength was no longer enough. If they continued to fight, it might not be the Qin army that collapsed first, but us."

"Nonsense, the Qin people can't stand it. As long as you grit your teeth and hold on for a while..."

"Okay, eat your horse's legs well. Don't forget that I saved you. Don't speak in this tone to your life-savior."

...

Lian Po raised his head and looked at Zhao She with a little suspiciously: "I always feel like you are hiding something from me."

Zhao She smiled and said, "It's nothing."

"explain!"

"Well... your horse is very fragrant."

Lian Po looked at the horse's thigh in his hand and suddenly understood something.

My horse?

At this moment, Lian Po suddenly had the urge to use this bone to knock Zhao She's head to pieces.

Of course, I just think about it.

Zhao She laughed: "Don't look at me with that look. We are the main generals. If we don't eat our horses, shouldn't we eat the horses of ordinary soldiers first? I know you have feelings for it, but it's dead. It's always right for me to use it to cushion your belly. You don't want to eat human flesh, right? Or... you say hello to my horse?" Zhao She picked up a clean horse bone from the ground and shook it at Lian Po.

Lian Po sighed and bit his horse's thigh hard.

"Go and let me be quiet."

Lian Po is not just the one who wants to be quiet.

In the dark night, Bai Qi stood on the chariot and looked back towards the south.

Beside Bai Qi was a camp that looked very chaotic and disorderly. At a glance, you can tell that it was built in a hurry. This is the current Qin army camp.

In the camp, countless Qin soldiers sat next to the bonfire, most of the expressions on their faces looked depressed, and few people spoke.

There were sounds of sleeping sounds from many camps, and there were faint moans from the wounded. A smell of medicine spread in the air. Although it was very light, it still smelled a little bit like vomiting.

Bai Qi did not look at the things in front of him, but looked further away.

In Bai Qi's sight, among the endless hills in the distance, there seemed to be a star of fire, which should be the direction of Yuguan.

The Qin Daliang sighed silently.

"It's still a failure..."

At this moment, Bai Qi no longer thought about any accidents, nor did he complain about anything, but he knew one thing very clearly, that is, he did not win the Yu Pass.

Bai Qi's chief guard appeared in front of him, holding a pot of thick meat soup in his hand: "Master, eat something."

Bai Qi shook his head and pushed away the meat soup in front of him: "You go to the personal guard immediately and follow me north immediately."

"Going north?" The chief guard was obviously surprised and said, "But the army had just retreated here before they settled down."

Bai Qi narrowed his eyes and raised his tone slightly: "I said, go to the personal guards immediately!"

The chief guard responded, carefully placed the meat soup in front of Bai Qi, and then walked away quickly.

Bai Qi looked at the meat soup on the ground, sighed, picked it up and ate it a few bites.

He didn't have much appetite, not because of the frustration after failing to attack Yuguan, but because he was thinking about another thing.

After I went north, should I persuade my monarch Wei Ran to withdraw his troops, or to persuade Wei Ran to send troops to fight the people of Zhao?

As for Yu Pass... Bai Qi knew very well that after today, it would be absolutely impossible to win Yu Pass for three or five days.

Therefore, we should give up entanglement with this Zhao cavalry here and turn to a more important overall situation.

Now that we go back, everything will turn around. As long as the confident Wei Ran doesn't do anything more, Bai Qi thinks that the Qin army does not mean that there is no hope of winning in defeat.

It's time to leave!

That night, after failing to lead the army to attack Yu Pass, the deputy general of the Qin army, Bai Qi, decisively led his three thousand personal guards to head north and head north.

At least at this moment, the deputy general of the Qin army still did not admit defeat, but instead became more and more vigorous in fighting spirit.

Three days later, 30,000 Korean troops from Xinzheng arrived south of Yuguan.

However, after Lian Po and Zhao She led the Zhao cavalry to set up their formation, although the South Korean army was large in number, they were still in a hurry. Until the war in the north ended, there was no war breaking out again at Yuguan.

Just as the main force of the Zhao army fought in the Central Plains, the war also quietly spread in the north of Zhao State.

Zhao State Shangjun.

The sound of hooves was dense, smoke and dust were splashing everywhere, and countless horses gathered on the grassland, and the knights on them were in great momentum, and countless birds and beasts ran around.

On one side, the big star sewn together by fur guides the direction of all cavalry at the front of the cavalry formation. A very strange and strange symbol is drawn on the big star, namely red, blue and white, which is the symbol of the Linhu tribe.

Under the big banner, a middle-aged man wearing a tiger fur coat and a crown on his head, looking a little out of character, is the contemporary Lin Hu King.

King Lin Hu held the horse and pointed to the city that appeared far away from the sky in the prairie in front of him. He smiled at the two young men beside him who looked very much like him and said, "Come on, Bao Lu, there is the city of Zhao Guoshang County in front of him!"

Yuhui and Bao Lu are the eldest and second sons of King Linhu, and are also two people who are recognized as the most capable of competing for the next generation of King Linhu in the future.

The eldest son, Ye Hui, seemed a little worried and persuaded: "Father, Zhao State is the leader of our Lin Hu, and he just defeated Qi State in the east. It is said that none of the princes in the Central Plains can resist such a might. Do we really want to betray the alliance with Zhao State and start a war against them?"

King Lin Hu laughed and said, "Yes, I have naturally thought of what you think of. Don't worry, although Zhao State is very strong, he has started wars with Qi, Chu, and Qin State. No matter what the outcome is, it is impossible for us Lin Hu to take into account in a short time."

On the other side of King Lin Hu, his second son Bao Lu snorted and said lukewarmly: "Brother said this sentence is a bad thing. When Master Zhao defeated us Lin Hu, he drove us away from the nomadic land of ancestors like livestock, and enslaved our tribesmen who left there to fight for their Zhao State. And what about us? After we came here, we not only had to go to war with the Yiqu people, but also compete with the Yuezhi people and the Huns for the pasture! How many casualties and injuries have been paid by our good men in Lin Hu in recent years? All of these have to be counted on the Zhao State!"

Bao Lu became more and more excited as he spoke. He opened his mouth and spitted in his big yellow teeth, and said loudly: "These are all owed to us by the people of Zhao, but what have the people of Zhao done over the years? Have you ever given us compensation? No. They will only ask us for war horses and ask us to send warriors to join the damn border cavalry legion of Zhao State to work hard for the benefit of Zhao State!"

Yu Hui shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Second brother, that's what he said, but don't forget that if it weren't for the support of the Zhao State's father's support for keeping the alliance, we wouldn't have survived and developed to this day by the enemies such as Yiqu, Yuezhi and the Xiongnu! Moreover, was there no benefit in attacking Yiqu and Shangjun in the past few years? Zhao State is a strong man, and Zhao State is even a great hero on the grassland. We should follow him humbly, instead of resisting so blindly and recklessly!"

"Enough!" King Lin Hu raised his hand and glared at his two sons with dissatisfaction: "Noisy, is there any more to take my father seriously? A bastard! If you continue to argue, you will get back to raise horses!"

After scolding his two sons for a while, King Lin Hu said in a deep voice: "Okay, I have already figured this out. The people of Zhao are indeed very powerful, but don't forget why I fled to Henan with the remaining members of Lin Hu to maintain the independence of our Lin Hu tribe, and not being completely eaten up by Zhao State like Lou Fan! Look, those Lou Fan in the five northern counties of Zhao State now do not even recognize their own tribes, and keep saying that they are from Zhao State... It's a joke!"

"For the future of our Linhu clan, we must take the initiative to expand our strength before Zhao could reach out to the grassland. Otherwise, when King Zhao wiped out the stupid princes in the Central Plains and turned his attention to the grassland, our Linhu clan will be completely finished, damn! Do you understand?"

I will be scolded by King Lin Hu and lowered my head and dare not speak again.

King Lin Hu snorted and swung his whip in the air.

"Okay, start attacking!"
Chapter completed!
