Chapter 263 Breaking Handan
Originally, Zhao Jun was not brave enough, and now many people have seen Zhao Wangxie in Xicheng with his head cut off by a young general. How can he not be confused?
After Wei Huo led the Qin soldiers killed all the Zhao King's personal guards, there were not many Zhao troops on the entire city that wanted to resist. All the defenders almost scattered.
Before the Qin army outside began to attack Handan City, the defenders in Handan City were in chaos due to the actions of Wei Huo and Upp.
Panic is contagious.
In just one stick of incense, the entire Handan City was filled with the wails and shouts of Zhao's own army. The content was nothing more than the Qin army had entered the city and the King of Zhao had been killed.
Uppu was ready to take five hundred people to fight at the city, and Wei Huo even thought that he would die in the battle at the city of Handan. But all this was beyond their expectations.
The Zhao army in Handan City collapsed easily. The collapse was incredible, and it was natural.
Wei Huo was stunned for the first time. He was fighting desperately with a few people around him, but in a flash, the Zhao army on the top of the city actually fled wildly. Standing on the empty west gate of Handan City, Wei Huo's heart was a little confused. He even didn't believe that he had taken down Handan City like this.
"It's that simple?" Wei Huo seemed to be asking the people around him, or asking himself.
But no one answered him because the Qin soldiers who came up with him were busy passing the news from the city to Upp under the city.
Upp was also stupid. He had experienced quite a few battle formations, but he had never been like today. Except for killing the Zhao soldiers guarding the city gate, the rest of the others were just symbolic counterattacks, just like frightened wild dogs, fleeing wildly. What's more, even shouting words to make Zhao Jun deflated. Such people were going to be killed in Upp's team, but Upp thought these people were so cute today, and he liked them.
This is how war is, and it is always unexpected.
Just like Xiang Liang, he originally just challenged him tentatively, but he changed from this tentative challenge to a decisive battle between the two sides, which made Xiang Liang die directly in this uncontrolled battle.
Wei Huo and Upp just thought that the sneak attack they could do was just beheading the enemy king. After the operation, neither of them thought they could live. But the performance of Zhao's army made them ecstatic.
Five hundred people scared away the Zhao army's defenders stationed in Handan. This was a joke, but it happened to Wei Huo in reality.
"Hurry, hurry, cut down the Zhao King's flag on the top of the city. Cut down all the Zhao military flags. Hang the Qin battle flag for me. Let the rebels in the battle formation outside know that Handan City was taken down by my Daqin." Wei Huo finally reacted and immediately ordered the people around him to do this.
"General, we are here to rescue us and we don't plan to go back alive. No one has brought the battle flag of Qin!" A soldier from Qin obviously understood Wei Huo's intentions, and he said anxiously.
Wei Huo frowned and said, "Go to find Yan Saner, this guy must have a way. Go quickly."
The Daqin soldier who had just spoken ran to find Yan Saner. Because he was slower, Wei Huo kicked him on his butt and thigh.
Yan Saner really lived up to expectations. In less than a cup of tea, the soldiers of the Great Qin who ran away came back, holding a stack of battle flags in their hands. It seemed that they were indeed the Great Qin's battle flag.
"Hurry up, hang it on the top of the city. As long as you hang it on the top of the city, those fighting outside can see that I, Qin, has occupied Handan." Wei Huo ordered, while lying on the entrance of the battlement at the top of the city, looking out to observe the situation on the battlefield.
At the west gate of Handan City, all the Zhao State battle flags were cut off and thrown off the city wall.
This situation was immediately discovered by Wei Bao behind the cushion, and his eyes were filled with horror. Half an hour ago, there were thunderstorms on the top of the city, but now it has become quiet. The Zhao army's battle flag is falling.
Wei Bao patted his head and thought it was impossible.
Just when he wanted to continue observing, a new battle flag was slowly raised from the high-mounted flagpoles in Handan City. When the battle flag left a certain height, it immediately fluttered in the wind.
"Qin Army Battle Flag!" Wei Bao, who was in charge of the placing behind, almost fell down from his horse after seeing the battle flag in Handan City, with a look of horror.
"Handan City failed, Xiang Liang was killed, and the coalition forces were defeated." Wei Bao murmured to himself, and a decisive look flashed in his eyes immediately.
"Wei Army, I will be ordered by General. If Handan City fails, we will withdraw our troops immediately." Wei Bao discovered the secret of Handan City, but he did not think of a large-scale action. Instead, he quietly withdrew from the battlefield. After all, if several other countries can still fight with the Qin snipe and clam under this situation, he would not mind being a profitable fisherman.
But there are no fools in this world, especially those who can already command thousands of armies. The commanders of Yan and Zhao immediately saw Wei Bao's retreat.
"Wei Bao, you escaped at the battle. Do you want to make a covenant and be disrespectful?" Tian Heng, the head coach of Qi, scolded loudly.
Wei Bao cared about them and mocked him. Leaving strength at this time was the greatest covenant for him. As for what other allies wanted to do, let it go.
"The Zhao army is defeated, retreat quickly." Wei Bao continued to order and slowly retreated to another test of Handan City with a large group of troops.
"Wei army fled, we will retreat too." The personal guards beside Tian Heng immediately spoke when they saw the retreating Wei army.
Tian Heng slashed the guard without hesitation, but doing so would be useless. The guard's words had already been worn out, and it was spread to ten thousand times, and it was soon like a huge wave in the sea.
The retreat of the Wei army directly caused turmoil among the coalition forces. The first thing that could not resist was the Yan army. They not only retreated, but also shouted in a very unkind manner: "Handan City was occupied by the Qin people, please withdraw."
This sound and this thought are everywhere, causing the entire coalition army to disintegrate.
If the Qin army did not know how to seize the opportunity to attack at this time, then Zhang Han would not deserve to be a famous general in history, and Li Jian would not deserve to say proudly that he was a descendant of Li Xin.
The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty rushed into the coalition army like a tide, splitting and fighting the armies of various countries.
When Zhang Han ordered the army to attack in all directions, he ordered the Qin army to entangle with the army of other countries, and only found the flags of the Zhao army to fight, and the armies of other countries were temporarily let go.
The military soldiers of those countries left their hometowns to help Zhao. Now that they saw that Handan City had been captured, they were still in a mood to fight. Especially when they knew that Xiang Liang died in the battlefield, it even hurt morale.
Now seeing that most of the Qin army are rushing towards the direction under the banner of the Zhao army, as long as their own army does not go up to challenge them for fear of death, the Qin people will not pursue them at all.
If you don't let the soles of your feet slip away at this time, you're absolutely stupid.
As the saying goes, the defeat was like a mountain of fall. The coalition forces of several countries retreated one after another, bypassing Handan City, and all gathered in the direction of Julu. Only the army led by Zhang Er was besieged by the Qin army, three layers inside and three layers outside the Qin army, and they were unable to advance or retreat.
Zhang Er was now upset. He didn't know how the stupid King of Zhao gave up Handan. He wanted to question King of Zhao, but turned around and saw the face of King of Zhao who was still thick with a spear poked on his neck.
