Chapter 123 123

The next morning, Kuang Zhang called all the soldiers, asked them to mount their horses, and began to chase the Yan army.

And the Yan army rested near Jincheng for the night, and they did not reach Jincheng.

"We must regain our strength and prepare to fight the army!" Yan Dan said to Jing Ke that although they were defeated in Linyi, they still had more than 200,000 soldiers, which could still fight with Qi Xiaobai.

"I didn't expect that this Qi army would dare to attack suddenly with so many people!" Jing Ke said to Yan Dan.

They thought that Qi Xiaobai would have to have hundreds of thousands of troops to compete with them, but what they didn't expect was that Qi Xiaobai only sent 30,000 to defeat them.

The military expenditure of Qi Xiaobai's 30,000 troops is about the same as that of a standing army of Qi State, or even higher, after all, they have the best equipment, and their horses are also imported from outside.

There is no grassland in Qi is not suitable for raising horses, although Qi also raised some horses, but the quality is not as good as the grassland, in the past, Qi used to raise their own horses, Qi Xiaobai in order to make their samurai army have great combat effectiveness, the horses they use are imported from outside, of course, the price is not low, in addition to the price of buying horses, the transportation cost is also quite high.

After all, Qi Xiaobai's horse could not come from the inland and needed to be transported from the sea......

On the contrary, the legion led by Yan Dan, although there is a standing army, is not the most elite legion of Yan State, but an ordinary standing army of Yan State, and it is not ashamed that this Yan army is defeated by the samurai army in Linyi.

If in terms of military consumption, the consumption of these 30,000 warrior legions is about the same as the military consumption of the Yan army, of course, it may be low, after all, the Yan army also has cavalry, although this cavalry is not as good as the cavalry led by Le Yi, but the horses are still good, and with the addition of Deadpool, Deadpool's training consumption is also very large.

However, in this battle, the Yan army did not lose a little Deadpool, because the Deadpools were near Jing Ke and Yan Dan, their task was to defend them, and they did not rush to the front to fight, and when retreating, they were also the highest priority, so Jing Ke's Deadpool did not lose.

The 300,000 losses of the Yan army were actually partly missing from the battlefield, after all, it was easy to fall behind when retreating, and if they fell behind, they would be deserters, and of course they would be killed if they met the Qi army.

"They launched a surprise attack on us before, so we were defeated, and now we have set up a formation to meet again, and we will definitely be able to defeat the Qi army!" Jing Ke said to Yan Dan.

The Qi army can actually defeat the Yan army so easily, and another point is that the army led by Yan Dan has very few generals, and the generals of Yan Guo who are really talented and learned are all serving in Le Yi.

Without good generals, the combat effectiveness of the army will also decline greatly, but Jing Ke's military knowledge is still good, and he also knows some tactics or something, otherwise he will rely on Yan Dan to fight, and maybe the Yan army will collapse faster.

Jing Ke looked at the map, ordered his subordinates to deploy a defense here, ready to block the Qi army here, and they also prepared a new strategic plan, he sent someone to contact the county guard of Jincheng, Jing Ke let some people stay in front of Jincheng, and the large army withdrew to Jincheng, and then arranged a defense line connecting Jincheng to Yanshan!

If Jincheng is lost, they are not afraid, because if the defensive line connecting Jincheng to Yanshan is arranged, Qi Xiaobai's cavalry will not be able to defeat him quickly, and they will attack slowly.

Jing Ke thought about continuing to consume the Qi army in this defensive line, so as to have a decisive battle with Qi Xiaobai in Yanshan.

When they arrived at Yanshan, Qi Xiaobai's cavalry would be useless, and the Yan army would take advantage of its geographical advantage to engage it.

Jing Ke did not gather all the troops to fight Qi Xiaobai in front of Jincheng this time, but only left 50,000 people to resist the Qi army, he wanted to delay time for the Yan army, so that the Yan army could enter Jincheng smoothly, so as to create a fortification from Jincheng to Yanshan.

And in order to make the 50,000 people who stayed behind have extraordinary combat effectiveness, he asked the Jing family Jing Hei to stay here and fight with the Qi army.

Jing Ke looked at Jing Hei and said, "You must fight to the death with the Qi army, don't lose the face of the Jing family!" ”

"Understood!" Jing Hei patted his chest and said, Jing Hei is very dark, with a thick beard, it seems that he is a fierce general, and he is also a fierce general in real life, if it is not a critical moment, Jing Ke is unwilling to let Jing Hei stay here.

Jing Hei also knew the importance of his task, staying here was ten deaths, or ten deaths, but at the critical moment, as a member of the Jing family, he had to stand up.

At this time, the 50,000 people led by Jing Hei had already set up a quadrangular array, because the quadrangular array was more restrained by cavalry, and Jing Hei also knew that the Qi army would be a cavalry charge, so he put up a quadrangle to resist the Qi army.

He sat in the middle of the quadrangle, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Qi army.

"General, we may ...... this time"

"Are you trying to say that we might all die here? But as a soldier, death in battle is also a matter of course! Jing Ke said to his lieutenant.

As a soldier, dying in battle can be regarded as a well-deserved death, Jing Hei thinks so, the mission is to leave him, and tell him to fight to the death here, in fact, to put it bluntly, is to let him die here.

Of course, unless a miracle happens, Jing Hei can rely on these 50,000 troops to resist Qi Xiaobai's Qi army, he is facing not only the warrior army, maybe they can hold the warrior army, but can they hold the hundreds of thousands of Qi troops behind?

Maybe Jing Hei can hold on to hundreds of thousands of Qi troops and create a miracle, but in reality, there are very few miracles.

Jing Hei's square array is actually very neat and standardized, which also shows that Jing Hei is not only a fierce general who can fight, but also has good basic military knowledge.

The formation of the quadrangular formation, because it is often used, also belongs to a kind of conventional formation, basically every general has to learn, the formation of the quadrangle, of course, the quadrangle between the generals is a lot of differences and some differences.

And this time, more than half of the 50,000 troops led by Jing Hei were armed with spears, the spears were more restrained by cavalry, and the vanguard troops of Qi were cavalry.

The battle in front of this Jincheng may be the end of the Battle of Linyi, or it may be an extension, if the Qi army can quickly defeat Jinghei, they will be able to defeat the Yan army before the Yan army reaches Jincheng, if it can't be defeated quickly, then this is the end of the Battle of Linyi, they need to defeat Jinghei here, draw a beautiful solution to the Battle of Linyi, and start to study the war after attacking Jincheng and Jincheng.

"General, the scout in front has discovered the Qi army!" A soldier ran up to Jing Hei and said.
