The battle of Qin Yan had already started from the moment Yingcheng occupied the upper reaches of Yishui.

The drums roared and the flames soared.

The Yan army took the group army to advance, and the sound of the earthquake echoed dozens of miles away. With the outbreak of war, there is no need to hide it, the Qin army stepping on the Yishui River represents the invasion of the land of the Yan State, and the Yan people will naturally give the same reaction.

Yingcheng's construction fortifications were very simple, they came in a hurry, and the time to rest was very short, but they occupied a high place, waiting for work and waiting for the attack of the Yan army. Yingcheng has already passed down the military order, and the generals of each department are defending to the death, and each squad has its own position to hold. Without support, the brother troops behind them will not go to the rescue, everyone must defend their own territory, whoever loses, or who dares to retreat, will be killed on the spot by the veterans of the garrison guards.

At this moment, the soldiers in the young garrison camp realized what kind of war they were facing. According to the commander's intentions, as long as he held out for two days and two nights, the soldiers and horses from all over the Qin State would cross the Yishui River and encircle the Yan army.

Although the strategy was good, they knew in their hearts that the whole battalion together was only 30,000 people, even if they used the high ground to hold on, how could they resist the offensive of the Yan army? On the opposite side, there were countless torches for the Yan army, and they couldn't see the edge at a glance, with 30,000 against hundreds of thousands, and even the palms of many Yongcheng veterans were sweating.

The military order is like a mountain, and since you have come here, no one can turn back.

War, or can be born, retreat, must be dealt with by military law, and even affect the clansmen.

Yingcheng, who had a calm face, was actually very nervous in his heart, he had already raised his morale to the highest, if he couldn't wait for reinforcements to arrive, he would also die here. In order to make his soldiers have no way to retreat, Yingcheng deceived them. It was clear that the reinforcements were about to arrive in a day's time, but he had to say that he would hold on for two days and two nights.

No, don't look at the 30,000 people with excellent armaments, including 10,000 Yongcheng veterans, in fact, Yingcheng knows better than anyone else, and the remaining 20,000 people are the sons of arrogant and powerful people. There are a large number of people from the two clans, and there are even the children of the ministers of the DPRK and the Central People's Republic of China, who have been pampered since childhood, and when they grow up, they directly enter the garrison barracks, and most of them are on the battlefield for the first time.

Can you really stick to it for a day? After all, there are hundreds of thousands of troops on the opposite side, and the cavalry of Yan State is no worse than that of Zhao State back then, fortunately this is not a plain, otherwise Yingcheng would not dare to hold on here at all.

"Hey, hey, don't cross the slope, all stand behind the wooden pillars on the slope, unload all the shields for Lao Tzu, tie the shields to the wooden posts, and the two of them take turns to resist the shields, don't put a swallow in." A veteran shouted from the position he was holding onto, directing his soldiers.

"Ah, the shields are all tied, we can't even see people, how can we fight?" The soldiers wondered.

The old soldier said, "What do you know? The marshal said to stick to it, and we will stick to it. You must treat this place as a siege, and do not seek to kill the enemy, but not to let a single person in. ”

The soldiers were even more confused, and one of them asked: "Where did the two armies get their military merits if they fought and did not kill the enemy?" ”

The veteran scolded: ", 30,000 against hundreds of thousands, even if the other party stands and asks us to cut, we can't kill it all." Do what Lao Tzu said, as long as the first batch of Yan Jun people can't rush in, the people behind will be blocked. You remember to Lao Tzu, try not to kill if you can, we can't see the enemy, but the enemy can't see us, not to mention that the chariot here can't be deployed, and it's difficult for the enemy to rush in. ”

Hearing this, the eyes of the generals on the surrounding positions lit up at the same time, they were worthy of the military ruffians from Yongcheng, this idea was too good. The morale-boosting words that the coach Yingcheng said, the generals and veterans heard it, this is a dead mission, if you want military merits, you must first save your own life, only those recruits from the elite can not hear it.

What's more, if you do this, it is not considered a violation of military orders, as long as your position is not lost, it will be considered a great achievement. In this way, everyone has the same example, a shield slope has been erected in the entire upper reaches of Yishui, and rows of towering there, no matter how the scouts of Ren Yanguo probe, they can't see the reality inside.

In the face of this situation, Yingcheng didn't say anything, but just ordered Li Xin to take a team of elite soldiers and be ready to support at any time.

When Prince Dan arrived with the army of Yan Kingdom, he was also stunned by the scene in front of him. The two armies are at war, and there is such a method of warfare?

Prince Dan immediately ordered: "Pass on the prince's order, don't care about what is true and false on the other side, and send 10,000 people to charge." ”

10,000 people went up, and Prince Dan said to the generals around him: "The armies of the Qin State are not here, there can't be many people on the other side, and if you are full, there will be 50,000 people in the sky." First carry out the temptation, and then the whole army charges, and we must take the high ground in one go, otherwise I will be in danger. ”

All the generals nodded, they were all from leading soldiers, and they still understood such a simple truth.

However, the 10,000 people who charged past did not break through the opponent's shield array, nor did they themselves suffer any damage, and even only a dozen people died, and they were trampled to death by their own troops.

Now it's troublesome, 10,000 people are a temptation, and there are 300,000 troops following closely behind, all in a charging posture. Originally, if the 10,000 people were damaged, the troops behind would make up for it and continue to charge, but there were not a few dead people in front at all, so did they want to cut down their own people?

Half an hour passed, and news came from the front that the 10,000 vanguard army could neither rush in nor retreat. Climbing over the tall shield wall, before the person entered, he was stabbed down by the Qin army with a long stick, and there were no casualties at all. The whole one-person vanguard army was mixed together, crowded with people, and all of them used their bodies to hit the shield wall, how could this be knocked open.

A general beside Prince Dan shouted, "It's not good, the Qin army is delaying time, this battle is in a hurry, our army has no siege weapons at all, if you want to break through those shield walls, you must build siege tools on the spot." But within a radius of dozens of miles, where are there trees that can be cut down. ”

Another general said: "The other party did not kill anyone, as long as it is a living person, the army behind it will not be replenished at all." The 10,000 vanguard army charged for half an hour, physically and mentally exhausted, and the longer the time dragged on, the less strength it had. But now it will be difficult to withdraw, unless the entire army retreats five miles and reorganizes, how much time will it take? ”

Prince Dan was about to say that the random arrows would shoot a way out of the enemy without distinguishing between the enemy and me, but when the words came to his lips, he immediately stopped, and he absolutely could not give this order. King Yan is already on the way to move the capital, if there is a news that he will kill his own people, then the position of the crown prince will definitely not be guaranteed.

It is better not to attack this place, than to punish the soldiers in front. What's more, the vanguard army is also very tenacious, and has been knocked down from the shield wall by the Qin army countless times, but it still climbs over without hesitation, and the battle is very brave, without any slackness.

An Hour......

Three Hours......

Time passed quickly, seeing that it was close to dawn, he still couldn't rush forward, Prince Dan and the generals looked at each other, how should this situation be broken? Prince Dan had no choice but to send an order to transfer siege vehicles from nearby counties, which must be transferred within one day.

Looking at the scene of Qin Yan's first battle, Zhao Jia, who was still in his big tent, felt a deep sense of powerlessness. The contradictions within the Yan Kingdom still affect the battlefield, if he is the crown prince, he will definitely order a way to be killed.

The old soldiers are tired and can't retreat, and the new soldiers can't go up, so that's not how the battle is fought. Zhao Jia wanted to say something to Prince Dan, but when he thought of the contradictions within Yan Kingdom, he really didn't want to say much, so as not to be embarrassed between Prince Dan and King Yan. The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, what is this? At this time, he was still thinking about how to fight for power, maybe after this battle, Yingzheng was not far from the throne of the emperor of the Central Plains.

A spy walked in from outside the tent and said urgently: "The king hurry up and return to Daicheng, the soldiers and horses of the Qin army are all mobilized, and there is a faint tendency to encircle, if we wait, we will never go back." ”

Zhao Jia gasped, hurriedly stared at the map hanging behind him, dotted on a few red circles, and said to himself: "This is the upper reaches of Yishui, and all the Yan troops are concentrated here, so the defense must be empty, and Wang Qian's army must cross the river overnight, and they can't stop it if they want to." Then Yang Duanhe and the army, the Mengwu army, the route of the three-line march must be the upper reaches of Yishui, and even cut off the grain road in the rear, Yan Dan misunderstood me. ”

"Hey, that's not right."

Zhao Jia stared back at the spy and asked, "Who are you?" ”

The spy looked up and replied, "I am a scout under the king, so the king naturally does not know me. ”

Zhao Jia sneered and said: "You are lying, if it is the Daicheng army of this son, how can you call me the king when you see me?" ”

The spy straightened up and wondered, "What's the name of the king?" Didn't you reign in the city of Dai? ”

Zhao Jiayan said: "Although I am called the king, but my own brother will only call me Gongzi, and the king is for Zhao Qian." Who are you? You won't be Yan Dan's person, nor Yan Wang's person, are you Yingzheng's person? It's not right, Ying Zheng knows the situation in Daicheng, even if he is a secret agent who gets in, he also knows what the people on my side call me. ”

The man laughed and said: "It's worthy of Zhao Jia, but it's a pity, you're going to die, and the unification of the Central Plains is the trend of the times." For those who are stubborn, they should not live in this world. ”

"Who the hell are you?"

"The state of Chu enshrines Lu Qi."

Zhao Jia gasped, and said angrily: "You are the worship of the Chu State, you should have the posture of worship, I am too familiar with Yingzheng, even if he wants to kill me, he will only attack me personally, and it is impossible to fake others." What's more, we had an agreement long ago when we had a gathering in Zhongnan Mountain, and several families were fighting, and the top and strongest people were not allowed to participate in the war. ”

"Tell me, do the worshippers want to participate in this Central Plains dispute? Aren't you afraid that Princess Jiyue will punish you? ”

Lu Qi shook his head and said, "Before you die, I can tell you clearly that this matter is only the decision of the worshippers of my Chu State, and the other worshippers do not know yet. Even if anyone comes to the door in the future, we have a reason to tell that everything is for the sake of the blood sacrifice battle. ”

Zhao Jia said hatefully: "For the battle of blood sacrifice, come and kill me, so as to shake the prestige of Yingzheng and win the game between the king and the worshippers." I understand, you are still afraid of death, afraid of losing your own interests. If you can't kill Yingzheng, you will come and kill me. ”

Lu Qi nodded and said, "That's right, King Qin is too difficult to kill, but you are very easy to kill." ”

After saying this, Lu Qi stabbed out a sword, and Zhao Jia retreated in embarrassment, was touched by the corner of the table, and fell to the ground. Lu Qi's sword speed was too fast, and Zhao Jia was hit by a sword in the lower abdomen before falling, but because of the momentum of the fall, he didn't stab it deeply.

Lu Qi took out another sword, but was shot by a rain of arrows behind the screen, retreated and dodged, and instantly jumped to the door of the big tent.

The corners of his mouth said bitterly: "Could it be that several teachers have said that assassinating a character like a king only has a chance with a sword, and it is really not easy to kill." We're not Crimson Moon, and we can't handle crowd tactics yet. ”

disappeared immediately, and the guards hurriedly surrounded Zhao Jia and completely protected him.

One of them said: "Prince Qiyu, if you dare to make a move against you, you may also make a move on Daicheng, and the opinions of your subordinates ......." ”

Covering the wound in his lower abdomen, Zhao Jia gritted his teeth and endured the pain, revealing a helpless face, and said: "Pass the order, we will return to Daicheng immediately, since the worshippers have made a move, they are against the kings of the countries." ”

Another person said bitterly: "Childe, Daicheng is only a county land, and it is powerless to fight for the Central Plains, what should we do in the future?" ”

Zhao Jia said helplessly: "In the battle of Qin Yan, the Yan State will undoubtedly lose, and the Qin State has won this battle, which is destined to be the lord of the Central Plains." I know what you're worried about, I'm fighting back and forth, not all of them are fighting with Zhao Qian, the battle of will, where is the importance of life and death. ”

"You don't need to worry, this son will discuss with Yingzheng secretly, and when I return to Daicheng and make sure that there is nothing at home, I will go to Qin Palace."

Everyone was shocked and said in unison: "For the sake of our family, Gongzi must not take risks." ”

Zhao Jia sighed: "You can rest assured, if Yingzheng wants to be the emperor, he will not kill me, let alone trap me in Xianyang, and he will definitely send someone to escort me back." Because the current dispute in the Central Plains has undergone great changes, we have a common enemy, that is, the entire worship group. ”

"As long as there is an offering, no matter which king, he will do his best. Today I was assassinated, and tomorrow he may also be assassinated. ”

Zhao Jia was full of helplessness, full of depression and had nowhere to say, he took the soldiers and horses of Daicheng and left. When he left, he didn't say hello to Prince Dan, Zhao Jia hated the royal family of Yan State, as long as this battle was consumed, it must be Qin State who couldn't stand it.

It's a pity that Prince Dan maintains his feathers and hesitates on the battlefield, such a person will definitely kill people.
