Chapter 68: The Battle of the West River! (2) [Two in One](2/2)
Of course, such a big move could not be hidden from the eyes of Wei general Sima An and Qin general Wang Jian. The latter smiled and said, "This Li Mu is simply aware of the opportunity. It seems that Wu Xinhou has no way to attack Yanmen. But we can pick up several cities on the other side of the river for free." After that, he smacked his lips and added with a look of disgust: "But there should be several empty cities. Maybe Li Mu would burn the houses in the city with fire when he withdrew his troops."
On the third day of August, with the last Korean army deployed on the other side of the river evacuated, Sima An and Wang Jian knew that all Korean troops on the other side of the river should have evacuated.
So they ordered to cross the river and prepare to accept Lin Yang, Li Shi, and Gaolang as the rear stronghold for future advances.
Linyang, empty city.
Lishi, empty city.
But when Qin general Zhang Yan led his army to "Gaolang", Li Mu, who had retreated to the northern Loufan Pass, led countless Yanmen cavalry to kill behind the low hill east of Gaolang.
At that time, Li Mu stepped onto a mount, jumped onto a slope, waved his hand to the Qin army outside Gaolang City, and shouted expressionlessly: "Kill!"
With a command, the Yanmen cavalry, like a tide, rushed from both sides to the Qin army.
Looking at the Yanmen cavalry that was coming like a tide, Qin general Zhang Yan was stunned.
He had no idea that Li Mu, the Han general who had clearly retreated to Loufan Pass in the north, actually used a resurgence and took advantage of Zhang Yan's own troops to take over Gaolang, and he rushed out of the valley to the east.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
Zhang Yan shouted at the top of his voice, hoping that his soldiers would set up a defensive formation as soon as possible, but unfortunately, the Yanmen cavalry was too fast. Before the Qin army could react, they rushed to the Qin army, and poured into the Qin army's array like mercury pouring down the ground.
Perhaps the generals of the Qin and Wei coalition forces believed that Li Mu, the guard of Yanmen, should be a general who is very good at defense, but in fact, Li Mu's offense is far sharper than defense.
