Vol 2 Chapter 889: Battle of Horn Lake

The water level has been declining, and they want to rescue these wooden rafts while the tidal flat is not wide, leaving a way for the army.
However, it is difficult to drag those wooden rows, a group of people can not lift a wooden row, people can not even walk on their own, not to mention dragging heavy objects.
And the depth under this mud is almost mysterious. The shallow part is no less than the knee, but the deep part can trap the whole person.
The front was attacked violently by the Yan Army, and the soldiers who rescued the wooden platoons in the rear were nearly despaired by the muddy mudflats. It was the kind of despair that was close to the horizon, but watched the water level a little bit over time. Far away.
General Zhao Jun, who commanded the battle at the front, learned of the rescue of the wooden platoon in the back and cried in the face of the battlefield.
There was a big man in tears and whirling eyes, and the war was still far from the end of the talk, and the tears were silent, the tears were full, the beard was infiltrated, the lips were trembling, and he murmured: "Zhao Guo ... finished! Zhao Guo finished ... "
He is not the following soldiers who only obey orders and do not know anything. He clearly knows that after the joint of Yan Jun and Zhao Guo Rebels, the overall strength is twice that of this side, and the attack is often twice the strength of Zhao Jun.
And the person who commanded twice as much force here is not a wine bag, but a generation of famous generals.
There are also monk powers, and the three major factions of Yan Kingdom could have been able to contend against the three major factions of Zhao State. Now, Xiaoyuege, which is of different strength, has joined forces with the three major factions of Yan State. Country.
Now he is attacked by the enemy's superior forces on the front side, and there is no possibility of forcible counterattack. The only retreat behind him is the big lake backing, but this last retreat was blocked by this muddy ground.
His people could not retreat, how could the army in the lake land on the shore? There are millions of horses in the lake!
The natural dangers relying on man-made structures must be man-made. He believes it must be man-made. Such a large lake is not a small pond. It must have been opened by someone. Otherwise, the water level will not fall too fast, otherwise Yan Jun will not happen At this time the offensive was launched.
Relying on man-made natural dangers, the Yan Army could then use millions of troops to trap millions of people in the lake.
For Zhao Guo, the million-strong army in the lake has no effect and can be regarded as non-existent.
One thing is also obvious. It is impossible to drop the lake water level only on his side. Not only the people on his side have no escape route, but also the Zhao Guo people in other directions have no escape route.
At this point in the battle, he already knew that Zhao Guo was finished without seeing the end.
With tears in his face and no words in the sky, the "Yan Shanming" commanded thousands of troops and thousands of horses in this vast land to lay down the whole situation of the mountains and rivers.
On the lake, among the teams desperate to paddle quickly, a general pointed to the front and said loudly: "Mr. Dudu, seeing the shore, we are almost on the shore."
Pang Teng urged again, "Come on, be sure to land before the evening, and join the defenders to break through before the evening!"
He didn't even believe it, he knew he was forcibly inspiring the morale of the army.
When the frontier of the Duhu Lake Army approached the so-called shore, all the soldiers were dumbfounded, and the people sitting on the wooden row also stood up and waited and watched.
What is the real shore, there is a hundred feet away from the shore of the green grass, and there are many miles.
Standing on the wooden row, you can see a lot of people on the real shore tossing in the mud.
The faces of Zuo Chengfeng, Jiang Wanlou and Mi Man became black, and finally they understood why Pang Teng said, "I'm afraid it's too late."
Zuo Chengfeng said with a cold tone: "Huge governor, you are the commander-in-chief of the army, and it is your responsibility to let the army survive. How can you take the army out of trouble?"
Jiang Wanlou and Mi Man are also staring at Pang Teng. They are naturally okay to cross this muddy zone, but they cannot take so many people over in a short period of time. .
Pang Teng turned to the three people and said, "Go down to some mages, see where is shallower, try the depth with your height, and line up to explore the way forward."
A group of disciples immediately led out of the three major factions and landed on the muddy ground in front of them, lined up at intervals, after which they all released their mana and their feet immediately sank. In some places, the mud stopped sinking before reaching the knees, in some places, the thighs did not reach, and in some places, the waist did not reach the waist, and then reached the chest.
And those places where you can stop without knees seem to be able to walk, but it is just a small area. After walking a few feet forward, you can sink to the top of your head.
The silt at the bottom of the lake did not know how many years it had settled.
Pang Teng knew that there was no way to pass, and slowly closed his eyes, his face covered with bitterness, and no one could know the sorrow in his heart.
Three fathers and sons were successively governors of Zhao Guo, and his father and elder brother led Zhao Guo to fight. The final outcome was defeat, which also brought huge losses to Zhao Guo. He wanted to reverse it, and he would follow in the footsteps of his father and brother. Is this the life of the Pang family?
"You don't have to try again, you can't get through." Pang Teng opened his eyes and sighed softly.
Jiang Wanlou said angrily: "As a coach, he has to say such a swaying military sentiment that he has to pass if he can't pass!
Mi Mandao said: "Take the row of wood together and try to build a pontoon."
Pang Teng said: "It's useless, it can float in the wooden drainage. If it doesn't float in this mud, it will be engulfed when thrown down. Even if it can float, people have to sink on it."
Mi Man didn't believe that evil, the key is that they couldn't accept this reality, just admit defeat? Don't try not to be reconciled.
Soon it was organized, and a soldier on a wooden platoon scored points on other wooden platoons, after which several monks cast spells to lift the wooden platoon and ran down to the muddy ground.
Facts have proved that in some respects, even the so-called three well-informed masters are not as good as Pang Teng.
During his lifetime, Pang Tengrong and his horses and horses have gone through too many different terrains. What kind of place can the army go and what kind of place can camp? That is already his basic literacy. He will know the local terrain at a glance. As a result, his abilities in this area are far less than the heads of the three major schools flying around.
This result made Meman, who was determined to give it a try, angry and reprimanded Pang Teng, "What now?"
Pang Teng did not say anything, staring at the shore one or two hundred feet away, the grief in his eyes was so profound.
The three heads looked in the direction he was looking. The other side could already hear the faint sound of fighting.
Here you can see the shore, and you can see the large army on the lake, but the two sides cannot meet under this short distance.
Jiang Wanlou suddenly said: "I have a way to try, the army can ride down from the water drain, should be able to land!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone else understood the deep meaning and wanted to abandon the Zhao army men under siege on the shore in front of them, not to rescue them, as if they had not seen them.
However, it would not work without giving up. There was no way to rescue. Zuo Chengfeng said: "Not bad!" Saying this means he also agrees to give up regardless of the lives and deaths of the people on the south bank!
Pang Teng said, "Useless, in such a large lake, the water level drops so fast. The flow rate of the water at the rupture can be imagined. So many people rushed over, and they would all be finished without the enemy attacking!"
Jiang Wanlou said angrily: "This won't work, that won't work either. What do we want you to do as a commander? Since the two countries have been fighting, since the start of Meng Shanming, you have fallen into the wind and claimed that there was Who grasped the win? Who insisted on persuading us to wage the war? Under the weak state of Yan, Meng Shanming could still reverse the world. What about you? A great Zhao country was beaten like this by you. Enjoy the waste of high official Houlu! "
Pang Teng looked sad, and the other party scolded him so mercilessly, he recognized, "I am Pang Teng, the ancient sinner of Zhao Guo!"
A group of generals around also looked sad.
Mi Man: "Is it a sinner who is useless to put his mouth on the mouth? What is in front of us now is to solve the problem. Do we want the army to die in vain? Regardless of Brother Jiang's method, at least it is the only feasible method. At least try it. test!"
Pang Teng closed his eyes and regretted it ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Even if he rushed out of the corner lake without trying ... the lower reaches must also be a piece of Wang Yangze country flooded with water, as long as he rushed there, it is defeated! I was Pang Teng incompetent, and affected the people of Zhao Guo, poor people downstream, I do not know how many people will suffer because of this flood! Meng Shanming has repeatedly made this kind of venomous desperate plan, will be condemned! "
Jiang Wanlou scolded: "What kind of condemnation? As commander-in-chief, to win a battle as a vocation, not to win depends on your mouth to curse your opponent. What is your skill? You Pang Teng has the ability to come out of an account, and let me help You bear it! "
Pang Teng acknowledged what he cursed. The defeated general was not courageous enough. Even if there are thousands of reasons, there is no need to excuse it. This is not a quibble in the court. Lost or lost ...
After the loss of more than half of the army defended by the South Bank, with no hope of breaking through, no way to retreat, and no reinforcements, the remaining 300,000 horses finally fell ...
Zhao Guo's last three million elites, those who died in war, surrendered, and those trapped in the lake, have lost more than half.
The army was not as good as the coalition of the rebels of Yan and Zhao. As a result, Zhao Jun's defensive strategy relying on Jiaohu completely collapsed, and the remaining Zhao troops on the shore were compressed into a small area. The coalition forces did not attack or siege this army, and they continued to persuade them to surrender.
With the winning ticket in hand, Zhao Jun no longer had the opportunity to make a comeback. Shang Chaozong and Meng Shanming were reluctant to attack again, and did not want to let Yan Jun's children pay too much casualties.
From the east to the Song Kingdom, and then to the west, Zhao Guo, Yan Guoerlang paid too much and too much in order to protect his home and defend the country and fight foreign enemies!
At this point, the coastal defense around Jiaohu Lake has been almost completely taken over by the coalition forces, and Zhao Jun in the lake has completely become a turtle in the urn!
The news of the Battle of Jiaohu shocked the world!
Everyone with a discerning eye knows that although this battle is not over, Zhao Jun has no chance of overturning, and Zhao Guo's demise is in sight!
