Chapter 458 Li Mu takes retreat as advance, Wei Liao is in a dilemma

When Meng Wu heard the news, he was stunned at first, and then he felt happy.

The Zhao army took the initiative to withdraw its troops. Does this mean that the Zhao army is already afraid of the Qin army's military front?

But the next moment, Meng Wu suddenly came to his senses after seeing Wei Liao's extremely gloomy expression.

Things may not be that simple.

Meng Wu couldn't help but ask, "General, what's going on?"

Wei Liao's stiff face moved slightly, and then he said, "This Li Mu... is simply sinister!"

Li Mu suddenly retreated ten miles, which immediately caused Wei Liao to fall into an extremely passive situation.

If you continue to pursue, the Qin army may advance recklessly.

If the Qin army does not continue to pursue, then the Qin army will not be able to touch the Zhao army's cavalry at all, and there is no way to talk about victory.

Meng Wu then came to his senses and said, "What should I do?"

At the moment of this situation, Wei Liao pondered for a while, gritted his teeth and said, "Send the order to continue to advance and pursue the Zhao cavalry!"

Meng Wu was shocked and said, "It's not good to do this, General. Didn't you just say that Li Mu just wanted to use this to let us go further and further?"

Wei Liao said coldly: "Do we have a better way now?

And, who said my vanguard army would advance rashly?

Another order is sent, the main force of the central army will be ahead, and immediately after the vanguard army, and will not give Li Mu's troops the opportunity to use cavalry to surround the vanguard army!"

Wei Liao thought he thought it was very clear that the reason why Li Mu retreated was to lure the vanguard army to pursue it alone and set a distance between ten miles apart from the main force of the central army. Then the Zhao cavalry could penetrate the ten miles apart to encircle the Qin vanguard army.

But as long as the main force of the Qin central army follows, the Zhao army will have no chance to encircle and the entire battle situation will be completely different.

Meng Wu still felt a little bad in his heart and said, "What if the Zhao army continues to retreat?"

Wei Liao sneered: "The Zhao army cannot continue to retreat, because the Zhao army's camp is behind them. Where can they retreat?"

So, under the order of Wei Liao, the 30,000 garrison troops took action in an orderly manner, and continued to advance forward with 600 chariots as vanguards.

The news was reported almost immediately to the Zhao cavalry formation that had just retreated ten miles away.

After hearing this, Yi Qusheng couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In Yiqusheng's initial imagination, the reason why the Zhao army retreated ten miles was to lure the enemy into depth, but now 30,000 Qin troops are coming out in full swing, and they are still in depth, and they can't swallow this mouthful.

Yiqu Shengdao: "This Wei Liao is really decisive enough. General Li Mu, what should we do now?"

Compared to Yiqusheng, who was a little panicked, Li Mu was quite calm and even asked Yiqusheng back: "King Yiqu, don't you really think that I can't do anything to them after the Qin people are in full swing, right?"

Wei Liao stood on the chariot and watched the 30,000 Qin soldiers advance proudly under his leadership.

Countless smoke and dust splashed out from the steps obscured the vision in front of Wei Liao, but the scouts who kept going back and forth were still able to detect various battle situations in time and then report to Wei Liao.

"General, the thousand cavalry harassed by the left wing have disappeared!"

"General, the 1,000 Zhao cavalry that raided the right wing did not know where to go!"

Hearing this, the smile on Wei Liao's face became more and more intense, and he said to Meng Wu beside him: "General Meng Wu, did you see it?"

After Li Mu learned that our entire army had launched an attack, he had no choice but to shrink his troops and concentrate on fighting with us to the death."

Meng Wu nodded repeatedly and said, "If it is a decisive battle, there is a defense line composed of 600 chariots in front of us, and our army will definitely win."

Wei Liao laughed loudly and said, "There is still a distance of four miles. Once our army travels through the last four miles, it will be Li Mu's death!"

Suddenly, another scout rushed over, bringing news that completely caught Wei Liao off guard.

"General, a Zhao cavalry just broke into our camp, and is now setting fires and looting around our camp!"

"What?"

Wei Liao was shocked and almost fell off the chariot.

After a few seconds, Wei Liao shouted in a panic: "Aren't the Zhao army's cavalry all under our surveillance? As long as there is a mobilization, we will be blocked by our army. Where did the troops come from to break into our camp?"

Meng Wu suddenly understood something and said in surprise: "Is it the two thousand cavalry who just raided our wings and then evacuated?"

Wei Liao seemed to be hit by a thunderbolt, and he was completely stunned.

Indeed, Wei Liao arranged eyeliners in all places in the front, but he ignored the two small groups of Zhao troops that had been harassing the Qin army under his nose.

With the 30,000 Qin troops attacking the camp with only a group of young and strong men, the two thousand Zhao cavalry were simply human blocking and killing gods! Wei Liao subconsciously looked back and saw the rolling smoke rising into the sky! Wei Liao suddenly understood completely: "This despicable and shameless Li Mu, that's what he planned at the beginning!"

Being fooled! Meng Wu said anxiously from the side: "General, you must return to the camp immediately, otherwise it will be too late!"

Wei Liao took a deep breath, his face flashing and hesitating.

At this time, Wei Liao was actually a little confused.

It is of course easy to withdraw troops, but what should I do if the 10,000 main cavalry of the Zhao army is close to me?

Meng Wu became anxious and said, "General, there are many food and grass in the camp. If we sit down and watch the food and grass be burned, we will be defeated without a fight."

Wei Liao was panicked, but immediately remembered something and said, "The Zhao army camp is in front of us. As long as we can defeat the Zhao army and occupy the camp, we will have new food and grass!

"Monwudun said: "My good general, the Zhao army is a cavalry, they have no food, grass and supplies.

If we continue to march, they just need to throw down an empty camp and run away, and we will be completely gone without food and grass!"

Wei Liao gritted his teeth and roared: "But what should we do if the Zhao cavalry attacked when we retreated?"

The sound of killing on the battlefield was shocking, but the main and deputy generals of the Qin army were already in silence.

Wei Liao suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Before the 30,000 elite soldiers under his command even began to fight with the people of Zhao, they were already in such a dilemma! Is this the number one general under Wu Xinjun?

Seeing that the Qin army was already very close to the Zhao army, another message suddenly came.

"General, Zhao's army directly bypassed the camp and continued to retreat!"

As Meng Wu said just now, Zhao Jun gave up his camp without hesitation and gave the camp to Qin army! This sentence seemed to hit Wei Liao heavily like a giant hammer, causing Wei Liao's body to shake hard.

With a bang, Wei Liao slapped hard on the shaft of the chariot and said gritting his teeth: "Retreat, the entire army retreat!"
