Zhao Weiwang in the Warring States Period

"This damned Li Mu is so vicious!"

Seeing thousands of captives slowly moving towards the city, Ji Xing felt a tangle in her heart.

Not only Ji Xing was entangled, but even many defenders on the top of the city were also entangled.

If it is an enemy, then kill it, but the problem is

Those are all their comrades in arms!

Many people turned their attention to Ji Xing.

Ji Xing's face was livid, staring at the captive who kept approaching in front of her.

These damned captives, they are still holding the ladder and pushing the car, it looks like they are really going to attack the city!

Behind these captives, thousands of Zhao cavalry were watching from afar as the supervising team.

It can be expected that once the captives escape, the cavalry of Zhao State will immediately shoot and kill the escapees mercilessly.

Finally, the generals around Ji Xing couldn't bear it anymore, someone said: "Prince, why don't you open the city gate and let them in."

Ji Xing snorted heavily, and said, "Didn't you see those Zhao cavalry behind you? As soon as the city gate is opened, those Zhao people will definitely rush in!"

No one spoke anymore. As the saying goes, a dead fellow does not die a poor one. Since everyone knew that opening the city gate was risky, they had no choice but to do so.

Seeing that it was gradually approaching, suddenly, a North Korean soldier at the top of the city shouted: "Brother Zhong, it's Brother Zhong!"

A prisoner under the city suddenly raised his head and said in a trembling tone: "Brother, brother! Open the city gate, open the city gate!"

"Swoosh!" An arrow shot from the top of the city, piercing through the captive's chest.

With a livid face, Ji Xing put down the longbow in her hand, and shouted at the surrounding silent city: "What are you still doing, shoot arrows, shoot arrows for me!!!"

A moment later, arrows rained down from the top of the city.

Many prisoners were shot by arrows one after another, and the screams filled Xiangping city.

The arrows shot down from the top of the city made the captives panic. Some people wanted to escape subconsciously, but they were greeted by the bows and arrows of Zhao Jundu's team.

Some simply knelt down and begged for mercy from their comrades on the top of the wall, but under Ji Xing's stern order, the only answer to these beggars was one arrow after another.

Finally, one of the captives under the city woke up, and shouted at the chaotic captives around: "Retreating now is a dead end, the only way to attack the city is to find a chance of life, and come with me!"

Soon, the captives put the ladder on the city wall with red eyes and arrows and stones, and started an extremely fierce siege battle.

Yi Qusheng and Li Mu watched all this from a distance, Li Mu's expression was very calm, but Yi Qusheng's expression was not so calm.

"This trick is too much..." Yi Qusheng couldn't help but sighed.

Li Mu shook his head and said, "If I can use the lives of these captives to save my soldiers some casualties, then it will be worth it. To me, the lives of 1 captives are no better than the lives of one subordinate." Besides, do you really want me to kill all these captives? Let them go to attack the city, at least they can still have a chance."

Yi Qusheng was silent for a moment, then nodded and said: "It is indeed the truth, do you think they can break through this city?"

"Impossible." Li Mu said: "But they can cause a serious blow to the morale of the defenders in the city. If I guess correctly, the city will be captured by us soon."

The most serious blow to the morale of the defenders is when the captives attack the city. After all, we were all in the same robe two days ago, but today we are going to fight for life and death. It is impossible for anyone to change their hearts.

"If you do this, will it arouse the resentment of the Yan people?" Yi Qusheng was still a little worried.

The corner of Li Mu's mouth twitched slightly, and said, "Didn't you notice that most of our captives are Koreans?"

The captives' attack was actually not resolute. Although some people took the lead in charging, the arrows and stones that were as dense as raindrops on the top of the city still hindered their offensive. The lack of command was also obvious, so only two After a quarter of an hour, the first batch of thousands of captives had been completely lost.

Li Mu waved his hand expressionlessly: "Let the second batch of prisoners go up."

It seems that because they saw the fate of the first batch of prisoners, the performance of the second batch of prisoners became much more determined when they attacked the city, and it seemed that they no longer regarded the defenders on the top of the city as their own.

That night, Ji Xing appeared in front of the Queen Mother Yan with a gloomy face.

"Queen, we must break through and retreat, otherwise, the fall of this city will happen sooner or later!"

Chapter 824 Escape (first update)

"Retreat?" When the Empress Dowager Yan heard this sentence, she didn't seem very angry, but asked Ji Xing a question: "Where to retreat?"

Ji Xing said with a serious face: "For now, the only way is to retreat to our North Korea. As long as we pass Pan Manhan, it is impossible for Li Mu to catch up again."

Empress Dowager Yan looked at Ji Xing, and Ji Xing also looked at Empress Yan. Their eyes met, and there seemed to be a strange atmosphere reverberating in the air.

After a long time, the Empress Dowager Yan suddenly said in a low voice: "If that's the case, then please leave it to the prince."

Ji Xing's heart trembled slightly.

"She, she actually treats me, treats me"

Ji Xing felt that her body no longer belonged to her, and her heart was floating, floating, floating, as if she had ascended to heaven in an instant

Ji Xing didn't even remember how she got out of this mansion.

After returning to his barracks, Ji Xing immediately summoned the remaining generals: "How many troops do I have available now?"

A rather mature and stable general coughed and said in a low voice, "Back to the prince, there are still 8000 people available, and 8000 of them are from the Yan army."

These words were like a basin of cold water being poured from the top of Ji Xing's head, instantly chilling his body.

Thinking about how high-spirited he was leading the [-] North Korean army when he set off, what happened now?There are only [-] of the [-] troops left!

In view of the very small population in North Korea, it may not be possible in a year or two to restore the number of troops to [-].

After a while, Ji Xing gritted his teeth and said: "This damned Li Mu! I will avenge this revenge in the future!"

"Revenge?" Several generals didn't respond when they heard Ji Xing's words, but they all felt disapproving in their hearts.

The youngest of these generals is also over 35 years old, and they are all experienced in battle. It can't be seen that Li Mu on the opposite side is definitely not in vain when it comes to formations and tactics Otherwise, the [-] Korean army would not be reduced to only [-] in one battle.

That is to say, there is the city of Xiangping City as the backing, otherwise, the result of the battle that day would be a super rout of the [-] Korean army, and even few people present would be able to escape with their lives!

Of course, no one would say such unlucky words in front of the prince. Everyone looked at Ji Xing respectfully, waiting for the prince's decision.

Ji Xing didn't let these generals wait too long, and soon he made a decision: "At midnight tonight, our army will break through at night!"

The generals were shocked after hearing these words, and all of them showed excited expressions on their faces.

Some people are about to ask, why is this escape still exciting?

After all, none of the people present were fools, and the current situation was very obvious. Continuing to defend the city would be a dead end.

With no reinforcements outside and no morale inside, this battle is impossible to fight. Only by running away in time while the troops still have some fighting power can they keep a chance of survival.
