"The general is thoughtful, and the general admires it!" Liu En smiled on the surface, and his mother sold batches in his heart.

Du Qi smiled proudly, but when he saw Liu En standing motionless, he suddenly came back to his senses and asked a little deceitfully, "Why don't you do it?" ”

"Uh..." Liu En was speechless for a while, and he didn't know what to say for a while, he couldn't say that he was afraid of death and didn't dare to lead someone to charge the Qin army's shield array.

Du Qi seemed to think of something, and his face instantly became gloomy, "Are you afraid of death?" ”

"No, no!" Liu En waved his hand again and again, and quibbled: "The last general is indeed afraid of death, but it is a matter of peace in Dashu, how dare the last general be afraid of death, what the last general wants to say is that it is difficult to move the boulder above the valley, and it will take a while to move the boulder to the edge above the valley!" ”

Hearing this reply, Du Qi's face softened a little, and Liu En was relieved to see that his lie had been concealed.

In fact, his words are not lies, it does take a while to move the boulder to the edge, after all, there is no road on the valley, it is all steep rocks, and a large number of people need to support and slowly push it, otherwise, if you are not careful, the boulder will slide down, resulting in waste.

"How long will it take?" Du Qi asked in a deep voice.

“...... More than an hour! Liu En pondered for a moment and gave an approximate time.

Du Qi's brows furrowed, his eyes looked at the west bank of the riverbed, and when he saw the slow movement of the Qin army, Du Qi thought in his heart that the Qin army could not pull large equipment on the west bank without an hour or two.

Thinking of this, Du Qi's heart was settled, his frowning brows stretched, and he waved his hand expressionlessly: "Do it as soon as possible!" ”

"Yes!" Liu En hurriedly responded, immediately turned around and left, and began to do what Du Qi gave him to do.

Time passed slowly, and both sides were frozen and prepared, and both sides were surprisingly in the same mind, to deal a blow to the enemy.

Time bit by bit, Du Qi watched the Qin army gradually pull the artillery parts up the west bank, and couldn't help but start to get anxious, looking around from time to time to see how far his boulder smashing Qin plan was going, to Du Qi's disappointment, the Shu army moved slowly, and so far, not a single boulder has moved to the edge of the valley.

Du Qi wanted to scold loudly, but he also understood that as the main general, he couldn't show anxiety, otherwise the Shu army, which was originally unstable, would panic even more, and the scene of the Qin army bombing the west coast with 'heavenly thunder' was constantly playing in the minds of the Shu army.

In particular, the remnants of the West Bank soldiers who escaped the bombardment of the West Bank still have white faces and are still unstable.

"What the hell is the Qin people's brains made of, they can make anything!" Du Qi secretly cursed in his heart, angry at Qin's ability to create things.

At this time, the Qin army had already pulled more than a dozen ugly cow artillery parts onto the west bank, and began to assemble, when the assembly, the rest of the disassembled artillery parts were also constantly pulled up to the west bank, with the passage of time, more and more artillery parts were pulled up the west bank, and more and more artillery began to be assembled.

Come on! Come on!

You'd better hurry up!

Du Qi was so anxious that he couldn't help but scold.

"No, if it goes on like this, it will definitely be too late, and we must come up with a new strategy!" Du Qi thought secretly in his heart, decided to think of a way, and finally thought about it, and really let him think of it, only to see him shout to a general not far away:

"General Wang, come here!"

The Shu general named Wang Kai hurriedly ran to Du Qi's side, and bent down respectfully in response: "General, what are your orders!" ”

"How many soldiers does General Wang still have?" Du Qi made a long story short and asked directly.

Wang Kai is the Shu general in charge of the west bank defense line, after being shelled by the Qin army, he led the army to retreat to the valley as soon as possible, and took the remnants of the west bank defense line to the valley for rest.

"Ten thousand twelve!" Wang Kai replied respectfully.

He originally had 30,000, but after being bombarded by the Qin artillery, he suffered 18,000 casualties, and only 12,000 troops were left under his hands.

Du Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes bloomed with several fine lights, and he said in a cold tone: "General Wang, you are in charge of the West Bank Defense Line, and now the West Bank Defense Line is lost, if Your Majesty learns about it, I am afraid that you will be furious, even if you are the eldest son of the Wang family, you will not escape Your Majesty's punishment, at least you will be removed from your post and dismissed, and at worst it will cause disaster to the whole family, Your Majesty's character, Presumably General Wang knows very well that Your Majesty hates the general of the defeated army the most!" ”

Wang Kai is not an ordinary general, he comes from the Wang family, one of the four great families of Dashu, and his identity is still the eldest son, it is precisely because of this identity that Wang Kai selfishly led the army to withdraw to the Guannei, so he was not punished by him.

And Du Qi is now inexplicably saying these words to Wang Kai, just to remind Wang Kai and let him know that he is guilty of guilt and needs to make meritorious contributions.

Wang Kai is young, he has not been in the army for a long time, and the city government is very shallow, when he heard Du Qi's words, his face immediately turned pale with fright, and he hurriedly knelt down on one knee and raised his hand to make a compilation, and asked honestly: "What can the general do, the last general is willing to atone for his crimes!" ”

He is not afraid of Emperor Shu Du Xiao, but afraid of the Wang family's family law, the Wang family's family law is strict, anything that insults the family or affects the whole family will be severely punished, if the news of his loss of defense is transmitted back to the Wang family, I am afraid that he will take off a layer of skin if he does not die.

In front of the family law, the Wang family is equal, even if he is the eldest son, he will be punished, which is much heavier than the national law.

Seeing that Wang Kai immediately complied, Du Qi was very proud, and there was a sense of pleasure between playing with people and applauding.

"General Wang, the old man, your father has a very good relationship, if only the old man knows about this matter, he will naturally hide this matter for General Wang, but the whole army can see that General Wang, you lost the defense line on the west bank in less than half a pillar of incense, and it also caused the morale of the whole army in Shuhe to plummet!"

"If you add a few crimes, Your Majesty and your father will be angry, but General Wang don't worry, the old man has a way to save you, as long as you make meritorious service in front of the army, the old man will use this to give good words to Your Majesty, and even ask for merit for you, so that General Wang will not only not be guilty, but will be rewarded!"

Du Qi is worthy of being an old fox, a whole set of tricks hit Wang Kai, making Wang Kai panic and rejoice, only to see him eagerly ask: "The general said bluntly, as long as he can make meritorious contributions in front of the army, the last general will definitely do his best!" ”

Wang Kai was completely led by Du Qi's nose.

"Okay, since General Wang has the heart to atone for his sins, the old man doesn't dare not give him a chance, as long as General Wang leads 12,000 troops to kill from the valley, go straight to the Qin army's shield array, and hold on for half an hour, it will be a great achievement!" Du Qi finally showed his fox tail.

PS: "Order it all!" ”
