Chapter 271 The stubborn final battle
Quyang and Xingtang were gone because Zhongshan had no troops to defend or recapture it. Zhao Xing's 50,000 army and 10,000 army that had been replenished for a long time, the real army was at Lingshou City.
The 20,000 soldiers who had been in battle with Le Yi returned to the south again, returned to Zhao Yong's team, and broke through the Hutuo River, the last line of defense in Zhongshan, occupied Shiyi, the barrier of Zhongshan, and continued to advance towards Lingshou. Finally, they joined forces with Zhao Xing, and more than 200,000 Zhao troops surrounded Lingshou, who had empty troops.
The king of Zhongshan stood on the wall, facing the sea-like Zhao army, his expression and spirit were relaxed. In Zhongshan now, no country is willing to support Zhongshan, and the demise of Zhongshan is already destined.
He also asked Zhao Yong for peace and was willing to give up the land that had been occupied by the State of Zhao, such as Shiyi Quyang, which was ceased to Zhongshan and sacrificed one of his concubines to Zhao Yong, seeking to survive Zhongshan, and then he worked hard to govern again in the humiliating seeking peace.
But Zhao Xing refused.
Yes, Zhao Xing refused.
Zhao Yong felt that his army was exhausted. The war for one and a half years consumed all the food in Zhao State. However, such a long war delayed the harvest of two crops of wheat. Now it is spring and the soldiers should go home to plant wheat, otherwise, they will not be able to harvest wheat this year.
This is a superficial factor, but in fact, when Zhao Yong met with the envoy of the concubine and the female, he did not talk about these things, but about women, the beautiful concubine and the beautiful concubine and the female, who are all over the world.
When the two sides were about to sign an alliance, it was Zhao Xing. When he heard the news, he held a stick and interrupted Zhao Yong's dream and the historical results that should have been achieved.
Zhao Xing brought a stick to beat the Lord Shang, and it became a habit to talk to the Lord Shang with a stick.
"Zhongshan, Xiaoqiang, you don't understand Xiaoqiang? It doesn't matter. Don't care about the details, but you must care that once you agree to them and retreat, give them a chance to breathe. If you want to destroy Zhongshan, you will become a treacherous villain and have no legitimate excuses. The war to destroy Zhongshan will be delayed again, and our losses will be greater, so I will beat your brother-in-law."
Zhao Yong, who was chased by the Manchu camp, did not get any rescue, but Zhao Xing, who dared to pursue the king with a title, was not criticized by anyone.
Because everyone knows that Zhao Xing is right, and everyone knows the reason to take advantage of his illness to kill him. Once he gets sick, more people will die in battle.
Even ordinary soldiers know such a simple truth. Doesn’t a wise monarch know?
It’s not that he doesn’t know, it’s because he’s confused by women’s eyes.
Now Zhao Yong first had a Han girl and then a Lou Fan girl. In his dream, he met Wu Wa. The young master Cheng offered Wu Wa and was favored. He did not make Han girl Qianqian the queen, but he made Wu Wa something like unruly.
Zhao Xing didn't care about this because he thought it was Zhao Yong's family matters. It was not good for a teacher to take care of students' family matters.
But this time he fell in love with Zhongshan's favorite concubine, which not only ruined the state affairs, but also a major event that bad students' reputation. Therefore, Zhao Xing chased and beat him with a stick.
As a result, the matter of asking for peace was interrupted by Zhao Xing. Now there are only two ways for the King of Zhongshan: surrender or fight to the death.
But I had already received the exact news that Zhao Xing preferred the King of Zhongshan to fight to the death. For this reason, he did not hesitate to force the King of Zhongshan to fight to the death.
Because Zhao Xing didn't want to fight a war of destruction for eight years as in history. He hated the number of the Eight Years War.
Therefore, as long as Zhao Xing doesn't like it, it must be eliminated and must proceed as he likes it. Therefore, the current Zhongshan King concubine is desperate, and Zhongshan is really destroyed again.
With his arms wide open, facing countless people watching him silently in the city, the concubine shouted loudly: "Zhongshan is over, Zhongshan has been destroyed again. Should we surrender in humiliation, or restore our Bairong's glory, fight bravely, and ask me Zhongshan people to make our last choice."
Silence, the people from numbness and panic to becoming resolute, and the pain of the destruction of the country once again revitalized the blood of their Bairong people and awakened their strong and tenacious character again.
A strong man, carrying a big iron rod, stepped forward, pulled off the high crown symbolizing the scholar on his head in front of the king, threw it on the ground without hesitation, and trampled it on the ground with his feet: "I, Wuqiujiu, don't want this shitty Confucian scarf that can obtain high officials and generous salaries. I want to restore the glory and dignity of my Bai Rong. If the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, I will never surrender. I will fight bravely."
As he stood up, the soldiers and people who were deeply saddened by the destruction of the country regained their blood and bravery and stood up one after another. They all had a belief that even if the destruction of the country would be vigorous.
The city gate of Lingshou opened. The King of Zhongshan did not flee to Qi as in history, but instead took his guards and soldiers, driving chariots pulled by plowing oxen, and took the soldiers and people who were willing to die with him and the country to die with him and go out of the city to fight for the last battle.
Facing the last bloody courage of Zhongshan, Zhao Xing and Zhao Yong were very surprised, but they still admired them more. They admired their spirit of establishing a country for two hundred years in the cracks of the great power.
The King of Zhongshan is the king of failure, but the king of failure is also the king, so only Zhao Yong can face it.
On the war horse that was riding on the Shenjun, with the pride of the winner, Zhao Yong welcomed it. The two sides did not perform the complicated etiquette when they met. Zhao Yong was about to say something, but the concubine waved: "Don't say anything, I have killed my two beloved concubines. We are preparing for a grand battle and a vigorous destruction of the country."
Zhao Yongzheng focused on his head: "I will help you those who are willing to die for Zhongshan. I will treat them with Zhao people who are willing to surrender." This is the promise of a gentleman.
The concubine bowed solemnly: "Thank you, let's start."
More than 30,000 Zhongshan soldiers, including strong women, old men who never forget their roots, and passionate children. This is the current full combat power of Zhongshan, all the warriors, guided by their Wang's slanted fingers, they rushed to the 200,000 enemy troops armed to the teeth.
Without shouting, they just gritted their teeth and took the initiative to kill the enemy like moths flying into the flames.
Zhao Xing said to Zhao Yong, who was unbearable, "For the last wishes of the ancestors of Zhao State, let's go together."
Yes, not only Zhao Yong is qualified to fight against the King of Zhongshan, but also Zhao Xing, the Duke of Tang.
So, the two of them rode their horses side by side and rushed towards the King of Zhongshan who was surrounded by tragic heroes.
200,000 to 50,000, 200,000 the strongest army in the world, and 50,000 to the so-called army that is mixed with old men, women and children. What kind of battle is that?
But the 50,000 patriots in Zhongshan did not cry or scream. They just flew moths to the flames, rushing on and falling down in batches. All of them died in the direction of the enemy.
My Qiujiu is extremely powerful, holding an iron staff. When you face it, wherever the iron staff passes, the shield is broken and the person is dead. The iron staff is bent, and then you throw yourself into someone and throw yourself into a car. When the tiger roars, you are a god of war.
The concubine of the Zhongshan King was just a weak scholar, but he was holding a sword in his hand. Facing the battle between Zhao Yong and Zhao Xing, he was not cowardly, and some ignored life and death.
Facing such an enemy, such a brave general, and such a monarch who sacrificed his life, Zhao Yong could no longer bear it.
But Zhao Xing gritted his teeth and fought to the death.
It’s not that Zhao Xing was cruel, but because Zhao Xing knew that he could not bear it at this time. He endured the battle of destroying Zhongshan for six years, and would eventually let Zhao Jun and all the soldiers participating in the war stop, and the battle of destroying Zhongshan would be defeated by Zhao Yong. Then they would be moved to Fushi by Zhao Yong, and their sacrifices would be continued according to the Zhou rituals. In the end, they would become a group of Huns that threatened the Qin and Han dynasties for nearly five hundred years.
What Zhao Xing doesn’t want to see will definitely not be allowed to happen. This is Zhao Xing’s principle and rules.
Zhao Xing muttered viciously: "Kill him, kill him." The ring-handed knife in his hand slashed at the concubine again and again.
When Zhao Yong, Zhao Xing and Meng Xi were left in the vast battlefield, Meng Xi cried while attacking Zhao Xing desperately with blood. He was not crying for his impending destruction or for himself, but because he recognized the cruel enemy on the other side, this was the soulmate he had been obsessed with, the friend named Han Ce, and the friend who made him have unlimited high hopes.
When he had dried his blood, he avoided Zhao Xing's sword and pounced on Zhao Yong's sword. When his chest was pierced by a sharp sword, he looked at Zhao Xing with difficulty: "I treat you as a friend, but why do you treat me like this? Are all friends like you?"
Zhao Xing stopped the knife that was slashing at him, and he was a little ashamed: "Which is more important than eliminating the root cause of war in the entire Central Plains? In order to end the war as soon as possible, I painfully choose the latter."
Looking at the concubine who died with her eyes closed, "I promise you to treat your people well and continue the incense of your ancestors."
After receiving this agreement, the concubine slowly closed his eyes.
