Chapter 864 Siege

  The more he went to Wu'an County, the more ominous omen in Shi Le's heart became more violent. He had to pause and asked, "How is the situation in Guangnian County, is it possible to pass?"

  Wang Yangdao: "The scouts report back, the Zhao family army led by Zhao Ju captured Guangnian County, and they are currently resting in Guangnian County."

  So if they went to Guangnian County at this time, it would be equivalent to crashing directly into the wolf's den. They had fought Zhao Ju, and Zhao Ju would not be easy to get along with.

  There is Zhao Hanzhang on the back, when the time comes, the north and the south will attack...

  Wang Yang trembled just thinking about it, and quickly persuaded: "Master, we should go from Wu'an County. After Wu'an County, we can go back to Anping Country, or go straight to Shunyang County. Our army is there."

   Zhao Hanzhang broke through Shangdang County, and the surviving people in Shile fled to Shunyang County, temporarily using Shunyang County as their headquarters.

  Shi Le lowered his eyes to think, and asked after a while, "Are there no soldiers and horses of Zhao Hanzhang in Wu'an County?"

Wang Yangdao: "There should be none. Zhao Ju, Xie Shi, and Ji Ping have all scouted out the manpower that Zhao Hanzhang can deploy. The general thinks that she just wants to form a siege with others in Nanhe or Julu, so we As long as you break out of the encirclement before she closes in, you'll be fine from now on."

  Shi Le still felt uneasy, feeling that he had overlooked something.

  But because they really can't figure it out, and they are indeed being approached by the Zhao family army from the four routes. If they don't escape, once they catch up and encircle them, it will be really difficult to escape.

  Shi Le suppressed his uneasiness and led people through Wu'an County, hoping to reach Nanhe County one step faster than Zhao Hanzhang and Zhao Ju's encirclement.

  But not far from Wu'an County, Shi Le was ambushed. The opponent did not raise a flag, but lay in ambush in the loose crop fields and dense grass on both sides of the road.

  Shi Le failed to meet with the opponent, and the opponent left with one blow. But looking at the arrows, armor, and knives they left behind, and looking through the corpses they didn't have time to take away, Shi Le couldn't tell which part they belonged to.

Wang Yang brought up two knives, and said to Shi Le: "The knives they use are divided into two types. You see, this is the standard of Zhao's knives. These are ordinary knives, and the quality is not very good. If you cut a few more times, you will be fine." The blade is rolled, it is the knife commonly used in the general army."

   There are also many such knives in the Shi Army, and they are basically distributed to ordinary soldiers.

   "How can there be so many Zhao family knives in an ordinary army?" Shi Le asked, "What about the arrows and armor?"

Wang Yang lowered his voice, and said softly: "The arrows also have Zhao's standard, and the armors that have been confiscated so far have not found any abnormalities, but during the battle, I clearly saw that the armors worn by the leading team leaders on the opposite side were also made by Zhao's. It took 80% of the force to cut it down with a knife, but it got stuck and only hurt the opponent a little bit."

  Shi Le's heart jumped wildly, "This is Zhao Jiajun!"

   "But the weapons and armor of the Zhao family army are different, and there are a lot of equipment. Even ordinary soldiers who have just joined the army can have a Zhao's knife. How can there be so many ordinary knives?"

  Shi Le didn't know why, but he believed in his intuition, "Even if it wasn't Zhao Jiajun, if he ambushed us, it means that he can cooperate with Zhao Hanzhang, and we will go another way."

  Shi Le chose to go east.

  Wang Yang was apprehensive and uneasy, "But there is Zhao Ju in Guangnian County, and his soldiers are not inferior to this team."

   "Guangnian County is so big, we avoid the crowds, Zhao Ju may not be able to find us, but the road ahead is vast, and we don't know who the enemy is, that is the real danger." Shi Le insisted on turning, and Wang Yang could only obey.

   It turned out that it was useless for them to turn. Within a day, they were ambushed twice in succession. Shi Le had already confirmed that they encountered a Zhao family army. The opponent knew their route and their strength well...

  Shi Le only felt chills all over his body, so he reluctantly rested in the wild for the whole night. At dawn, he led his people to continue northward. In order to avoid being ambushed again, he sent a large number of scouts to investigate along the way.

  Zu Ti rode a horse and led a large army to block their way forward. After being ambushed for two days, Shi Le finally saw the Lord.

  Of course, he didn't know Zuti.

  So he only glanced at Zu Ti and looked at his flag. He saw a flag on the left and right of his army, with a huge "Zhao" character on one side and a "Zu" character on the other.

  Shi Le stared at the Zuzi flag for a long time, and then said slowly: "Zu Ti?"

  Zu Ti raised his lips, nodded and said: "It is Zu, who has admired the name of General Shi for a long time, and came to ask for advice today."

  Shi Le ignored his words, and only said with a sullen face: "I heard that you defected to Zhao Hanzhang, but I don't know when you came to Guangping County from Anping Country."

  Zu Ti smiled slightly and said: "Zu has been waiting here for a long time. If General Shi doesn't come again, I'm afraid I have to go a long way."

  In the blink of an eye, Shi Le figured it out immediately, which is why Zhao Hanzhang has been chasing him leisurely.

   Several times, Zhao Hanzhang clearly had a tight bite, and when he felt that he would have to fight her before he could leave, the scouts told her to slow down to raise food and grass.

   It turned out that she had this idea.

She really wanted to encircle him from the north to the south, but instead of making Zhao Ju, Ji Ping and others go around him first and then make a roundabout encirclement, she let Zu Ti go directly south and limit the escape route for him. Here he is surrounded by those who are at leisure.

  Thinking about this, Shi Le looked back, and a scout came quickly to report, "General, General, Zhao's army has passed Wu'an County and is stationed at a place twenty miles away from us!"

  Shi Le's face was slightly pale, and when he looked around, he saw that the surrounding fields were broad and flat. Here, let alone a large army, even a person running hundreds of feet away could see it.

   It is not easy to hide, and naturally it is not easy to escape.

   This is the burial place carefully chosen by Zhao Hanzhang for him.

  Zhao Hanzhang and Zeng Yue led the vanguard to rush forward one step ahead, while Fu Tinghan led the rear army one step behind.

  Twenty miles is only half an hour for the vanguard.

  When she arrived, Zu Ti and Shi Le were fighting fiercely. She stopped for a while, glanced across the battlefield, and immediately ordered to form an attack, dividing left and right horizontal attacks.

  When Shi Le saw that Zhao Hanzhang had really come, his suppressed anger broke out, and he turned to kill in the direction Zhao Hanzhang was rushing towards.

  But Zu Ti is fighting him, how can he let him leave easily?

  A shot blocked his way, and the battle broke out again.

  In the end, the two sides fought to the exhaustion, and Zhao Hanzhang also felt that he had penetrated too deeply into the enemy army, so he asked Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.

  Shi Le also took the opportunity to truce.

  Zhao Hanzhang and Zu Ti sent troops to surround Shi Le far away, and the army was divided into four groups. This was the wilderness again, and Shi Le had nowhere to hide and escape.

Wang Yang was covered in blood. In addition to other people's blood, he was also stabbed in the back. After a day of beating, his hands and feet felt weak. He stabbed the knife on the ground and supported his body with the knife. Said: "General, when night falls, we will protect you to break through."

  Shi Le's eyes were deep, and he didn't object.

See you tomorrow
