At this time, only the sound of footsteps was heard, and I saw the torches flashing, and an army appeared in front of several people. And Wang Jian swung his sword fiercely, and was about to rush up again to fight to the death, when he suddenly heard someone say: "General, is it really you?" ”

Wang Jian was stunned for a moment, only to feel that this voice was quite familiar, so he looked at it, through the faint starlight and the light of the torches, Wang Jian saw clearly that the person who came was a captain in the Qin army, named Zou Tai, one of the three captains of the garrison around his residence, and behind Zou Tai, there were vaguely many Qin soldiers, and it seemed that there were hundreds of people.

Seeing that it was his own people, Wang Jian also breathed a sigh of relief, and thought that the Qin army had finally come to help, although it was a little late, but it was still extremely timely, at least he caught up and saved himself, so he said: "Zou Tai, you came just in time, how many people did you bring?" ”

Zou Tai lowered his head and said, "Report to the general, the military camp has been broken by the Dai army, and I only escaped with two or three hundred people to find the general." ”

Wang Jian was stunned for a moment, and then he saw clearly that most of the Qin soldiers brought by Zou Tai were not fully clothed, and many of them even wore only a vest, obviously fleeing in a hurry.

At this moment, the Qin army, which was fighting with the Dai army on the street, was already a little unable to resist, and it was the Qin army that had just blocked the Dai army's cavalry in the side alley, and was killed and retreated, and almost withdrew from the alley.

Wang Jian didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately said, "Let's go, let's go back first." ”

Originally, Wang Jian led the army out of the mansion not far, so it didn't take much time to retreat, and soon retreated to the mansion. And at this time, there were about 200 soldiers stationed in the mansion, who immediately opened the door of the mansion and took Wang Jian and his party into the mansion.

And Wang Jian also took the time to ask Zou Tai about the loss of the military camp, only then did he know that in addition to the soldiers who stayed on the city wall and kept vigil, the soldiers in the military camp had already slept peacefully, and after learning that the city was on fire, **, the military camp was also urgently mobilized, calling all the soldiers to get up and dress in armor, although the Qin army was well-trained, but in a hurry, it still caused a lot of chaos.

But just when the Qin army has not yet sorted out, the acting army has broken into the barracks, swords and guns are raised, and the war horses are galloping, only killing the Qin army with countless casualties, although Zou Tai and other generals tried their best to command and organize the Qin army to resist, but at this time the Qin army was like scattered sand, and some Qin soldiers did not even wear their clothes and armor, and they were not the opponents of the acting army at all, and as a result, two captains died in the chaos, and just at this time the soldiers sent by Wang Jian arrived and found Zou Tai. So Zou Tai led more than two or three hundred stragglers to escape from the barracks and rushed to find Wang Jian, and rescued Wang Jian at the right time.

After listening to Zou Tai's speech, coupled with the battle just now, Wang Jian was already sure that the one who entered Jijing City was definitely the Dai Army, because the Yan Army did not have such a strong combat effectiveness at all, let alone such a cavalry army, but Wang Jian still couldn't figure out how the Dai Army secretly came to Jijing.

But now Wang Jian can't think about this, but to think about what to do now, Wang Jian has two choices, one is to organize the army immediately, abandon the house and flee, now Wang Jian has four or five hundred Qin troops around him, if he escapes at night, there is still a great chance to escape from Jijing, but in this way, Jijing will definitely be lost, and the Qin army must recapture Jijing as soon as possible in a short period of time, otherwise it will lose its stronghold in Yan State, and it is very likely to be defeated back to the south bank of Yishui; The second is to stay in the mansion, send people to another military camp in the city, and transfer troops in the garrison outside the city, and then cooperate with the outside to eliminate the Dai army in one fell swoop, so that of course Jijing can be saved, but the risk of doing so is also extremely great, because Wang Jian may fall into the encirclement of the Dai army, and this time I am afraid it will be difficult to escape.

However, Wang Jian finally chose the latter, firstly, Wang Jian's sense of responsibility and self-esteem did not allow him to give up Jijing so easily; Second, after weighing and dividing, Wang Jian still thinks that this Dai army came from Jijing from the confrontation on the border of Daiyan, so the number will never be very large, it is estimated that there are only five or six thousand people, and it will never exceed ten thousand at most, and now the Qin army still has seven or eight thousand troops stationed in another military camp in the city; There are still 15,000 troops outside the city, as long as Zisi can defend the mansion and send people to mobilize these two groups of men, he will definitely be able to eliminate the Dai army that broke into the city.

And once you give up Jijing easily, and then want to recapture it, it will be much more difficult, although the number of the Dai army is not much, but you can use the name of helping Yan to restore the country, mobilize the people in the city to help defend the city, you can make up for the disadvantage of insufficient troops, and now Yang Duanhe, Wang Ben's army is fighting against the Dai army, it is difficult to return to help, and the Qin army here has only 20,000 or 30,000 troops, and lacks siege equipment, it is indeed difficult to recapture Jijing.

Therefore, after entering the mansion, Wang Jian immediately ordered Zou Tai and Wang Jian to command the soldiers to guard the mansion, and break up the door panels, furniture, rockeries, fake stones, etc. in the mansion as defensive furniture. Fortunately, the wall of Honggao's mansion is quite high, close to two zhang, and the Qin army's tables and chairs are tiptoeing, which can occupy the head of the wall and resist for a while. At the same time, Wang Jian ordered people to go inside and outside the city, and dispatched troops to rescue in two places.

Seeing that the Qin army fled back to the mansion, the Dai army immediately launched an attack on the palace wall, but because of the lack of weapons to attack the fortification, they were beaten by the Qin army for a while, and the bows, arrows and stones were fired in a volley, resulting in dozens of wounds and deaths, so they had to retreat.

When Sima Shang saw this, he also hurriedly ordered not to rush to attack the mansion, but first blocked all roads in the mansion and did not allow the people in the mansion to break through. Because Sima Shang knew that this mansion was the command center of the Qin army, and Wang Jian lived here, judging from the current situation, Wang Jian was likely to be still inside, which could not be easily let go, so Sima Shang immediately ordered another army to come to join the army immediately, and sent people to the east gate to transfer the brave army to participate in the battle.

So the acting army immediately launched an operation, and under the leadership of the Jinyi guards, all the roads leading to the mansion were blocked, so that although the mansion was not surrounded, it was difficult for the Qin army in the mansion to escape. However, the Dai army still lacked the equipment to attack the palace wall, so Sima Shang ordered people to search the city for all kinds of items, as long as it could help to attack the palace wall.

Before these preparations were completed, the Dai army had been different from each other and did not attack the mansion, and if the Dai army did not attack, the Qin army was naturally happy to garrison in the mansion and wait for reinforcements to arrive, so the two sides were temporarily deadlocked.

―――――――― dividing line ――――――――― dividing line―――――――― and while fighting on this side, the other three armies of the Dai army attacked from three directions, like another military camp in Jijing City by the Qin army.

This military camp is the main location of the Qin army in Jijing City, and there are still seven or eight thousand Qin troops at this time, but because the location is relatively remote, so after the accident in the city, after a long period of time, the Qin army in the military camp got the news.

The chief general of the Qin army did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered the Qin army to get up and prepare themselves in case of accidents. However, just when the Qin army was sorting out and preparing, the Dai army had already been killed, and it was from three different directions.

Although the Qin army lives in a standard military camp in the city, there are parapets, trenches, watchtower and other fortifications, and the defense is indeed not weak, but because it is in the city, and now the Yan State has been destroyed, the overall situation has been decided, so the vigilance of the Qin army has also been reduced a lot, leaving only a small number of soldiers who are keeping vigil, and the rest are all sleeping peacefully, and after receiving the news of the chaos in Jijing City, they are all busy getting up, dressing, putting on armor, and looking for weapons, no one thought of strengthening the defense of the military camp, and as a result, the Dai army broke through the camp gate very easily, and entered the barracks.

At this time, the Qin army was still unprepared, wearing clothes and armor, and holding weapons, although there were many Qin troops, but they were scattered all over the barracks, and did not form an overall strength, and more Qin soldiers were not prepared, and even a considerable number of Qin soldiers did not get up at this time, and were still sleeping. As a result, after killing the barracks on behalf of the army, while wielding knives and raising guns, slashing and killing Qin soldiers at will, while setting fire to the barracks, of course, the barracks in the city did not need to build tents, but the houses in this era were all wooden structures, so the fire also spread very quickly.

Although there are a small number of neatly dressed Qin soldiers who struggled to resist, but they had no choice but to fight alone, naturally they were not the opponents of the Dai army who had been prepared for a long time, and they could only be killed by the Dai army, and the corpses were all over the place, so the resistance of the Qin army was not long, and after a while, the resistance of the Qin army was basically dispersed by the Dai army, and there were many houses and buildings on fire in the barracks, and many Qin soldiers were still sleeping in the houses, but they were blocked in the house by the fire, and they could not escape, although some Qin troops braved the fire and escaped, but there were still swords and guns of the Dai army waiting for them.

In a short time, the entire barracks were full of flames, and some houses were completely burned, and the flames soared to the sky, illuminating the entire barracks, while the remaining Qin troops had no heart to resist, and scattered in the barracks, taking the road and fleeing.

At this time, Wang Jian could see half of the sky in the direction of the military camp in the mansion, which had been dyed red by the firelight, so Wang Jian also knew that most of the military camps in the city could not be counted on. So how many generations of troops have entered Jijing City, and they can attack two military camps in the city at the same time, but I am afraid that there are not 10,000, and it is not much worse. However, Wang Jian was still relieved that although the garrison in the city could not be counted on, there were still 15,000 men and horses stationed outside the city, which was still not a weak force, so as long as he could hold on to the men and horses outside the city to rush to reinforcements, he could turn the situation around.

But at this moment, I only heard Wang Jiandao: "General, the acting army has begun to attack." ”
