Two days later, in front of Changping Pass, Zhao Junzhong was in the military tent.
"Old General Lian, please give the order to retreat!"
"There is no sound of fighting in the west of Changping Pass, presumably General Zhao Kuo has already found another place to break through, let's go quickly......! I'm afraid I won't be able to leave!".
"It's not a pity for me to wait for death, but after I die, what will happen to Handan? What will my king do? Please think carefully about the old general!"
......
More than 30 generals of the Zhao army bowed down to Lian Po and asked to retire.
In history, after learning that Zhao Kuo's 500,000 army was surrounded by the Qin army, Zhao Wangdan hurriedly dispatched 25,000 troops from the only remaining 35,000 defenders in Handan, and was led by Zhao Sheng, the king of the plains, to rescue.
Of course, Zhao Sheng is not as good at fighting as Lian Po, but Lian Po is difficult to get rid of, so he can't get sick, and Zhao Wangdan can only use Zhao Sheng.
This time, because of Zhao Yan's brilliant record, Zhao Wangdan didn't make much effort, so Lian Po agreed to lead the troops to the battle, and naturally Zhao Sheng had nothing to do.
The end result, however, is no different.
By the time Lian Po led his troops to Changping Pass, the Qin army in Changping Pass had reached 40,000 through continuous increase in troops, which was more than Lian Po's reinforcements!
Zhao Kuo led an army of 500,000, and Lian Po led an army of 25,000, attacking from both sides, attacking Changping Pass for more than ten days, losing troops and making no progress.
Zhao Kuo was disheartened and prepared to break through from other places.
Now, there are only about 20,000 people left under Lian Po's command.
The generals hurriedly persuaded Lian Po to return to Handan. Otherwise, the remaining 20,000 troops would probably be swallowed by the Qin army at Changping Pass.
"What ...... this
?"
Lian Po is really full of bitterness now.
He even wanted to smack himself a few times...... Why did you make Changping Guan so strong in the first place, it's just a cocoon!
What now?
Withdrawing from the army is tantamount to admitting that he will not be able to save the Zhao army in the encirclement! The 500,000 good men of Zhao, almost all the young and middle-aged men of the Zhao Kingdom, will be empty! There will be an unknown number of orphans and widows, and an unknown number of widows and lonely men!
Do you really bear it? Really willing?
I will become the biggest sinner in Zhao Kingdom!
However, do not retreat?
If his 20,000 army is wiped out by the Qin army again, there will only be 10,000 elites left in Handan City.
After the Qin army consumed the Zhao army in the encirclement, it entered Handan in the east, and Handan was just around the corner!
He is still the great sinner of Zhao State!
God, O earth, I beg you, tell me how to make a decision now
In just an instant, a fine layer of cold sweat broke out on the old general's head.
There had never been a moment when he felt so powerless, so incompetent!
Yes, it's incompetence!
If I am honest and like a son, with 800 prisoners of war, I can come and go freely in front of 50,000 Qin troops, so why should I be afraid of 40,000 Qin troops in Changping Pass?
And why face such a difficult choice?
If yes, if so, the leader at this time is Gongzi Yan, and I am now only an old pawn, how good it should be!
It's a pity that the son fled the Huns, and now it is my old Lian Po who wants to make this decision!
"Everybody......
".
Finally, Lian Po spoke with difficulty, and he said: "General Ben has made up his mind, listen to my orders, ......."
"Report!".
At this critical moment, a soldier walked into the big tent quickly, and said with excitement on his face: "General Qi Lian, Gongzi Yan has arrived, and he asks to enter the camp!"
Nonsense, the current Zhao people, who doesn't know, their own son, Yan, burned Xianyang with 800 prisoners of war, faced the 50,000 army of the King of Qin to come and go freely, and also kidnapped the first beauty of Great Qin, Qin Qing?
Such a record is really too stylish!
Zhao Yan has become the idol of all Zhao soldiers!
Especially now, Zhao Guo has encountered an unprecedented crisis, Zhao Yan arrived in time, can the armor not be excited?
In fact, Lian Po was even more excited than Najiashi.
"What? you...... What do you say? Say it again?"
The soldier said: "General, you heard it right, the prince who made a big fuss in Xianyang led three thousand elite soldiers to arrive, and with Yin Xin and Nie Yun as proof, he definitely can't fake it." Now, he asks to lead the army into the camp!".
The importance attached to talents in the Warring States period was unprecedented.
Among the barracks, the main general is the largest. Even if Zhao Wangdan arrived, he had to be allowed to enter the camp with Lian Po's permission.
As the saying goes, "'Those who are within the prison will be ruled by the widows, and those who are outside the prison will be ruled by the generals.'" "
Zhao Yan has no official position, but only a noble status, and this should be the case.
When Lian Po heard this, he shook his head again and again, and said, "What is the identity of the son? How can he ask to join the camp?
"In!".
"And with General Ben, open the door and welcome my eldest son!".
"Whoa!".
