Chapter 249 Wu Xinjun is here!

Zhao State, Lingqiu City.

General Lian Po of Zhao State stood on the city wall, staring at the Five-Nation Alliance camp outside the city, with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

It was these soldiers who defeated Lian Po in Gaotang City, causing Lian Po to lose 120,000 Zhao soldiers, and fled back to Lingqiu City with abandoned armor.

Then, these people chased Lingqiu City and wanted to kill Lian Po and the remaining 80,000 Zhao troops! The 400,000 coalition forces surrounded Lingqiu City from north, west and south. The east of Lingqiu City was just a surging river flowing towards the northeast (Yellow River).

The tents of countless coalition forces were stacked, extending far away like dense forests, filling every place that Lian Po’s eyes were.

This kind of encirclement net could not even fly! It was not long after the rising sun that countless coalition soldiers were rushing out of the camp and began to arrange them in an open space outside the camp.

On the city walls around Lian Po, there were soldiers of Zhao State who were defending everywhere.

Once upon a time, these Zhao soldiers fought bravely in Changping, Hedong, Fuli and many other places, eliminating countless enemies, making the majesty of Zhao over the world, and making Zhao the veritable number one power in the world.

But now, the soldiers who made great contributions to Zhao State have expressed confusion, dullness and even horror on their faces.

Lian Po saw all this and felt very uncomfortable.

Of course he knew why all this was the defeat of Gao Tang more than half a month ago! The defeat of Gao Tang caused more than half of the 200,000 Zhao troops to suffer casualties, and even destroyed the confidence and confidence of the soldiers of this elite army who had originally swept the world. The subsequent long siege caused the morale of these soldiers to fall to the bottom.

In the past few days, there have even been many cases of suicide due to despair in Lingqiu City.

This is actually not worse.

Lingqiu City was the former food and grass base of the Zhao army. A large amount of food and grass was stored in the warehouse of the city, so Lian Po and the 80,000 defeated soldiers were able to persevere until now. But the problem is that if there were no reinforcements, it would be a matter of time before the 400,000 soldiers outside the city conquered Lingqiu City by relying on their numerical advantage.

Will there be reinforcements?

Lian Po really wanted to have it, but reason told him... it was impossible.

As a general of Zhao State, Lian Po knew very well that Zhao State was mobilizing ability. It was not that Zhao State was unable to mobilize a large army, but it would take at least two to three months.

In more than half a month, Zhao State could only mobilize more than 100,000 troops. It would be difficult for so many troops to defend Handan, let alone come to support Lingqiu?

And sticking to it for two or three months... with the morale and combat effectiveness of the Zhao army in the city now, it is even more fantasy.

This made me fall into a dead end. Lian Po knew that if this continued, he would only be a chronic death, but he could not find any way to get out of this predicament.

A Zhao army general appeared next to Lian Po with a serious expression and said softly: "General, the enemy is about to launch a new day of siege. Please go down to the city quickly."

Lian Po did not respond, and his body did not move at all.

After retreating to Lingqiu City, everything was not going well. The many corpses under the city wall and the soil that had been stained with blood were enough to show how the Zhao army in Tianling Hill spent these.

A burst of intense drum sounded, and the coalition soldiers who had already begun to line up began to slowly approach the walls of Lingqiu City.

This action immediately aroused the vigilance of the Zhao army on the Lingqiu City Wall. The commanders of the Zhao army issued orders nervously to let the soldiers under their command prepare to defend. The soldiers did respond, but they all seemed very listless in the operation, and felt like they had accepted their fate.

Lian Po felt more and more depressed as he watched this scene.

Suddenly, a name flashed through his mind.

Zhao Kuo, Zhao Kuo, if it were you, what should you do?

I'm afraid you can't find any solution.

The confidant advised again: "General, it's really time to leave!"

Lian Po was silent for a moment, sighed a long time, turned around and prepared to get off the wall.

At this moment, someone suddenly shouted on the city wall: "Look, everyone, is that our Da Zhao army?"

This sentence immediately made Lian Po stop and turn around to look.

On the distant horizon, a red flag suddenly appeared, followed by the second and third sides... Under these flags, countless Zhao soldiers were so arrogant that they were overwhelmed by the plain like an endless tide, heading towards Lingqiu City.

Lian Po was stunned: "Who is it?

Who can still come to rescue at this time?

How could he have so many soldiers to rescue him?”

Not only Lian Po, but all the Zhao soldiers on the city wall were stunned.

Gradually, someone started to scream.

"It's really reinforcements!"

"Our reinforcements are here!"

"Look, everyone, it's Wu Xinjun's handsome flag!"

"Wu Xinjun, Wu Xinjun is here to save us!"

The name Wu Xinjun seemed to have some magic power, which made the Zhao army soldiers on the city wall smile on their faces, and some even cheered and cheered.

The originally ubiquitous heavy and stagnant atmosphere seemed to disappear all of a sudden, and countless sunlight seemed to pour into everyone's hearts, completely eliminating all the previous haze in an instant.

Lian Po's mouth twitched slightly for several times, and finally showed a hint of relief.

"Wu Xinjun... I knew it was you."

Only Zhao Kuo, who else can it be?

But soon, the smile on the corner of Lian Po's mouth began to slowly disappear.

Because his subordinates counted the flag with him.

"One hundred flags of thousands of generals... Isn't this only one hundred thousand people?"

The moment she calculated this number, all the hope that had just risen in Lian Po's heart suddenly faded away.

What's the use of a hundred thousand people?

There was a total of 400,000 troops outside! Lian Po was silent for a moment, sighed a long time, walked down the city wall, and did not look at Zhao Kuo's support army outside.

Zhao Kuo outside the city did not know that his arrival had caused so many rich emotions in Lian Po's heart, but at this moment, Zhao Kuo didn't want to know at all. He just waved his hand lightly and said in a deep voice: "Send the order, and the defensive formation of the entire army will advance slowly.

Send someone to tell Li Mu again, let him and all the soldiers of Chiyou Army be ready to attack at any time!"

Is this battle impossible to win?
