The next morning, the gate of Fenmen City was wide open, and teams of Yan soldiers withdrew from Fenmen City amid the shocking cry of the people in the city, opened from Fenmen City, and then rushed north quickly.

The news of the Yan army's retreat reached the Zhao camp almost immediately.

Li Mu immediately became excited and said to Pang Nuan: "General, I am willing to lead the armored cavalry as a vanguard to fight!"

Regarding Li Mu's request for battle, Pang Nuan just smiled and shook his head, saying, "No, this time the Lejian will definitely leave about 10,000 rear troops. Let's wait for his main force to go away first, and then eat the ten thousand rear troops."

Li Mu was stunned when he heard this, and then said anxiously: "Does the general think I will be blocked by this ten thousand rear troops? With just one charge, I can defeat the rear troops. Without the obstacle of the rear troops, the general only needs to lead his troops to continue pursuing, and then the main force of Yan State will undoubtedly be defeated!"

Pang Nuan smiled slightly and nodded in agreement with Li Mu's words: "Li Mu, what you said is indeed quite reasonable, but have you ever thought that if this happens, how many casualties will we suffer?"

Li Mu said without hesitation: "A maximum of 200,000 to 30,000 casualties can be defeated in one battle!"

For 20,000 to 30,000, it is a very profitable way no matter how you look at it.

Pang Nuan continued to smile and said, "That's true, but I feel that the 20,000 to 30,000 casualties are too many."

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he suddenly said, "Is it because the General wants to drive the tiger and swallow the wolf, and let the Yan people fight against the Qi people, and our army is taking advantage of the fisherman behind us?"

Pang Nuan smiled and said, "Li Mu, Li Mu, you are indeed worthy of being Li Mu, I am just thinking of this."

Li Mu thought for a while and didn't seem to agree with Pang Nuan's meaning. He said: If the General's plan could be accomplished, it would indeed allow our army to win without bloodshed, but in this case, the time would have been greatly delayed. As far as I know, the Huns are invading Henan, and the battle situation in Shuofang County is critical, so it is better to win and advance westward earlier."

After saying this, Li Mu suddenly realized that Pang Nuan's eyes were very strange when he looked at him, so he couldn't help but say to Pang Nuan with some confusion: "General, are you wrong?"

Pang Nuan seemed to hesitate for a moment, then laughed: "Li Mu, Li Mu, you are not wrong, but you, as my deputy general, said this, is wrong."

"You must know that since we have been ordered by the king to fight against the Yan people, the most important thing is of course to conscientiously complete the king's instructions and achieve victory over the Yan people."

"The king asked me to complete the entire combat mission as much as possible while preserving the elite, so I would find a way to complete the king's request. As for time, even after defeating the Yan army, there might be Wuyang and Ji waiting for us to conquer. Those two cities are the largest cities in Yan State and cannot be easily captured."

"And General Lian Po has already led his troops in Henan. According to the distance, it is estimated that he should have entered Hetao County at this moment. Even if the war here ends today, if you lead your troops to Henan, when you arrive, the war there will probably be over."

"So, although I know that you have been stationed in the Hetao Shuofang county over the years and are quite concerned about the battle situation of these two counties. However, the battle over there is nothing to do with you. At this moment, your most important task is to defeat Yan State first. Do you understand?"

Li Mu was stunned by Pang Nuan's words. After a long time, he sighed and lowered his head to Pang Nuan: "What the General said is very true, Li Mu has received the teachings."

"Okay." Pang Nuan smiled and patted Li Mu on the shoulder, saying, "I know you must be angry in your heart. Since that's the case, then you will lead your armored cavalry to fight and defeat the rear army behind the Yan army."

A moment later, a rumbling horn began to sound from the Zhao army's camp. With the sound of horns, 150,000 Zhao soldiers quickly ran out of the camp and completed the assembly, forcing the Yan army, which was still leaving the city.

As soon as the Zhao army's horn sounded, all the Yan army soldiers accelerated their pace at the same time, rushed out of the city gate as quickly as possible, and headed towards the north.

At the same time, there was also a Yan army soldier with a population of about 10,000 people after leaving the city, but did not go up north with the large army, but turned to the south and began to set up defense lines on the necessary road for the Zhao army.

Pang Nuan looked at the Yan army and couldn't help but shake her head gently, with a look of emotion on her old face.

"The mantis arm is a chariot, the mantis arm is a chariot! Where are you here, mobilize the eight ox crossbow and the catapult for me!"

Half an hour later, the blocking battle officially began.

Countless huge rocks roared from the Zhao army's position and then fell heavily into the position where the Later Yan army broke.

Hundreds of Eight-Cow Crossbows were fired one after another, and the strong arrows as thick as their arms instantly penetrated the defensive positions on the front line of the Yan army, causing the Yan army shields standing in the front row to fall down like cutting wheat.

Li Mu, who had long been unable to hold back, finally waited for the sound of the attacking drums, so he brought his heavy helmet to his head, blocking his face, revealing only two murderous eyes, and lifted the spear in his hand high, then fell heavily.

"Strike!"

A moment later, two thousand armored cavalrymen were like a torrent of steel, instantly rushing out from the flanks of the Zhao army and rushed towards the flanks of the Yan army, the broken troops.

On the front, thousands of main forces of the Zhao army were also rushing towards the front of the Yan army's broken rear troops like a tide.

A cruel killing began.

Although he was at a disadvantage in combat effectiveness and number, under the infection of the deputy general of the Yan army who led the way to the death, the tens of thousands of Yan army soldiers delayed the Zhao army for nearly an hour.

It was not until Li Mu, who was rushing to the battle for the third time, that the troops who were extremely brave and brave, shot the extremely brave deputy general and finally completely disintegrated.

At this moment, the Yan army commander Le Cheng, who was more than ten miles away, covered his face in great pain after hearing the scouts' rewards, and then said for a while: "Prepare another army to cut off the rear."

A bloody head was thrown in front of Pang Nuan by Li Mu, who was covered in blood.

Pang Nuan was not surprised at all, but picked up the head and looked carefully: "Is this the commander who commands the Yan army's rear-end force?"

Li Mu took off his helmet, breathed a lot, and then said, "That's it."

Pang Nuan smiled and said, "Very good, this time you have made a contribution. By the way, the Yan army is still several miles away from Beiyishui. They have to send at least a reinforcement army to delay our army's pursuit. Are you interested in continuing to fight?"

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, then put his helmet back expressionlessly.

There was a muffled sound under the helmet: "I'll set off!"
Chapter completed!
