The 200,000-strong army of the Qinqi Empire is divided into two parts.

The first part is the front route army, with a total of 100,000 people, led by the vanguard general Zuo Ziqi.

The second part is the rear army, which is also 100,000 people, and is named by the emperor of the Qinqi Empire.

After Zuo Ziqi led an army of 100,000 to the border of the Great Qin Kingdom, he launched an attack on the border passes of the Great Qin Kingdom non-stop, and captured the three border passes of the Great Qin Kingdom one after another.

Just when Zuo Ziqi waved his army to attack Lechang Pass, the fourth city of the Great Qin Kingdom, Zhang Changgong led 50,000 horses and horses to arrive.

Zhang Longbow's 50,000 horses were pieced together by the three kingdoms of Dayan, Dachu, and Daqi, which had a bit of a rabble.

However, these 50,000 horses were trained by Zhang Longbow according to the formation taught by Yan Yan, and they were actually quite an elite army!

Yan Yan is the ninth generation of people, in his first life, he once commanded a large army of millions of people to fight, experienced a hundred battles, and accumulated rich combat experience.

Within half a year of Yan Yan, Luo Luoshen, Qin Luoyan, and Lin Danian leaving the martial arts cultivation world, Zhang Changgong commanded these 50,000 people to train every day according to the formation taught by Yan Yan. Today, the combat effectiveness of these 50,000 people is quite strong.

After encountering Zuo Ziqi's 100,000 troops at Lechang Pass, Zhang Changgong did not take the initiative to seek battle, but set up camp outside Lechang Pass.

Zuo Ziqi sent a force of men and horses to make a tentative attack on Zhang Changgong's camp.

For Zuo Ziqi's attack, Zhang Changgong only defended strictly and did not take the initiative to attack. Even, when Zuo Ziqi's army retreated, Zhang Changgong did not order a pursuit.

Zuo Ziqi thought that Zhang Changgong was cowardly, so he dispatched an army of 100,000 and launched a fierce attack on Zhang Changgong's camp.

However, after three days of onslaught, Zuo Ziqi's team suffered more than 10,000 casualties and had to stop the attack.

Zuo Ziqi did not give up, urged his army, and began to attack Lechang Pass. There were not many defenders in Lechang Pass, and there was no combat effectiveness, so they immediately asked Zhang Changgong for help.

For the Shenyan Empire, the gains and losses of Lechang Pass are of little significance. However, Zhang Changgong knew that in the case of reinforcements, if he sat back and watched the loss of Lechang Pass, it would affect the morale of the army.

Therefore, Zhang Longbow did not hesitate to decide: the whole army will attack and fight a decisive battle with the enemy!

All of a sudden, Lechang was closed, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the two armies launched a life-and-death fight.

Zuo Ziqi's 100,000 army, although there were more than 10,000 dead and wounded, but, in terms of numbers, it was nearly twice as large as Zhang Longbow's men and horses.

However, when the decisive battle between the two sides really began, Zhang Changgong's side did not fall behind at all.

Just when the two sides were inseparable, the middle route army led by Hong Dajing arrived.

Although the Middle Route Army was only 10,000 people, it was composed of various sects and had particularly strong combat effectiveness.

What's more critical is that Yan Yan, Qin Luoyan, and Luo Luoshen are all in the middle route army.

Zhang Changgong raised his arms and shouted: "His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven and the two Heavenly Concubine Niangniang have arrived!

At this moment, Zhang Longbow, in terms of skill, has already surpassed the "Five Kings" on the earth, and he shouted out with deep internal strength, not only his troops heard it, but even Zuo Ziqi's troops heard it.

The morale of both sides has shown a trend of one thing and the other's strengths.

Zhang Longbow's troops, morale is high.

Zuo Ziqi's troops, morale is low.

In this case, Hong Dajing's 10,000 people have not yet entered the battle, and the situation is already one-sided.

Zuo Ziqi's troops were defeated, and they retreated for twenty miles before they could clean up the defeated troops and set up camp.

Zhang Changgong Mingjin collected his troops and came to the imperial tent to meet Yan Yan.

Zhang Changgong's current title is Zhao Guogong, and his official position is general.

Yan Yan let Zhang Changgong sit down and said, "General, let's talk about the military situation." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhang Changgong said, "According to our spy report, Zhuang Mingqi, the emperor of the Qinqi Empire, led an army of 100,000 and will be coming over in two days!"

Yan Yan nodded and said, "Yan Shao and Princess An Huan, leading the 100,000 army of the Great Qin Kingdom, still have three days to rush over." ”

As he spoke, the wind blew outside the tent and lifted the curtain.

Yan Yan strode out of the imperial tent, and Qin Luoyan, Luo Luoshen, Hong Dajing, and Zhang Changgong all followed.

Looking into the sky, the clouds are converging, and it seems that a heavy rain is coming.

Yan Yan looked at Hong Dajing.

Today's Hong Dajing, the title is the Duke of Wei, and the official position is Da Sima.

"Wei Guogong, if I send you to lead the men and horses of the headquarters, and now go to rob the enemy's camp, do you dare to go?" Yan Yan's voice was very gentle.

Having lived on Earth for 20 years, Yan Yan is not used to calling himself "I". Therefore, he refers to himself as "I" except on particularly important occasions.

Hong Dajing's heart sank, and said: "As long as Your Majesty has a will, even if Weichen goes to the soup and fire, he will not give up, why are he afraid of death?"

After a pause, Hong Dajing said: "Your Majesty Mingjian: Weichen's men and horses are already very tired after a rapid march. ”

"Your team is tired, and Zuo Ziqi's team is also tired!" Yan Yan looked up at the gloomy sky and said, "Moreover, attacking in the rain just caught Zuo Ziqi off guard!"

Hong Dajing didn't hesitate any longer, bowed to Yan Yan, and said sonorously: "Weichen immediately ordered the people of the headquarters and went to rob the camp!"

Zhang Changgong also bowed to Yan Yan and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to gather the men and horses of the headquarters and detour back to the back of Zuo Ziqi's camp from both sides of Wei Guogong, cut off Zuo Ziqi's retreat, and outflank him!"

"Very good!" Yan Yan said: "Since ancient times, the soldiers have been surrounded by more and less, today, let's have a battle to surround and annihilate Zuo Ziqi's men and horses!"

Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing said in unison: "Yes, Your Majesty!"

Yan Yan said: "In the dark, you can't tell the enemy from you. In order to avoid hurting our own people, each of us can wrap a white belt around his left shoulder. ”

When it got dark, Hong Dajing led 10,000 horses from his headquarters to Zuo Ziqi's camp.

Because it was a sneak attack, Hong Dajing strictly ordered the men and horses of the headquarters not to light the torches, and the mouths and hooves of the war horses were treated to avoid making a sound.

The wind is blowing harder and stronger, and the rainstorm is coming.

Hong Dajing's heart was both nervous and excited.

Since Yan Yan set foot on the land of the martial arts world, he regarded Hong Dajing as a confidant. Hong Dajing had long wanted to behave well in front of Yan Yan.

When Hong Dajing's 10,000 horses arrived at Zuo Ziqi's camp, the rain of soybeans fell.

Hong Dajing decisively gave the order to attack.

Hong Dajing's 10,000 horses, like a dragon out of the water, broke through the gate of the enemy's camp at once and entered the enemy's village.

Zuo Ziqi's men and horses were less than 70,000 due to heavy casualties. Seeing the heavy rain pouring down, Zuo Ziqi's subordinates were resting in the camp tent, without any precautions, and were caught off guard by Hong Dajing's team.

Because in the dark, Zuo Ziqi's men and horses didn't know how many people the enemy came, they were all panicked and disturbed by each other, and they couldn't organize an effective counterattack at all, and even killed each other in a hurry.

Hong Dajing's 10,000 horses are like tigers entering a flock, galloping vertically and horizontally, invincible.

About half an hour later, Zuo Ziqi began to organize a counterattack, and the two sides soon entered a battle of pulling.

The sky was cloudy and rainy, but on the ground, it was a fierce battle.

As the battle situation entered a stalemate, Hong Dajing's men and horses gradually became at a disadvantage.

However, at this moment, the nearly 50,000 army led by Zhang Changgong had quietly completed the encirclement of Zuo Ziqi's army. With Zhang Changgong's order, his nearly 50,000 horses entered Zuo Ziqi's camp from four directions.

As a result, the tide of the battle was immediately reversed, and Zuo Ziqi's side was defeated like a mountain.

Seeing that the defeat was decided, Zuo Ziqi had no choice but to order a breakthrough. As a result, his army trampled on itself, and countless people died.

All of a sudden, in the camp, there were piles of corpses and rivers of blood. However, due to the heavy rain, the blood was quickly washed away.

Yan Yan stood in the distance, looking at the battle in Zuo Ziqi's camp from afar, the expression on his face was neither sad nor joyful, and he was not shocked.

Yan Yan's left and right are Luo Luoshen and Qin Luoyan.

Qin Luoyan asked curiously, "Third Young Master, why don't you play yourself?"

Yan Yan said: "In the case of locking the victory, the appearance of the two of us will only expose our strength prematurely." Hole cards can't be easily revealed!"

Luo Luoshen pursed his lips and said, "Brother Yan, do you regard yourself as the biggest hole card?"

Yan Yan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't regard myself as the biggest hole card, but I am the biggest hole card." ”

An hour later, the fighting was largely over, and the heavy rain had stopped.

Zuo Ziqi's troops were completely defeated! Zuo Ziqi himself fled with thousands of remnants of the defeated generals, and the rest of his men and horses were almost completely annihilated.

Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing ordered the battlefield to be cleared and the wounded treated. After counting the casualties, Zhang Longbow's 50,000-strong army suffered more than 10,000 casualties. Hong Dajing's 10,000 horses and horses suffered more than 4,000 casualties.

For the Divine Goose Empire, it was a big victory overall.

At this time, both Zhang Longbow's team and Hong Dajing's team were extremely tired.

The guards of Lechang Pass ordered the four city gates to be opened, and respectfully invited Yan Yan to enter the city.

Yan Yan ordered: send the wounded to the city for treatment, and the rest of the men and horses were camped outside the city. At the same time, a large number of spies were sent to find out the whereabouts of the enemy troops.

These spies, all riding snow sculptures, soon came back to report: Zhuang Mingqi, the emperor of the Qinqi Empire, personally led an army of 100,000 people, and it was only 300 miles away from Lechang Pass!

The journey of 300 miles only takes two days to arrive!

Yan Yan once again ordered: The whole army rested for a day, and a large number of spies were dispatched to report the movements of the enemy army at any time. A day later, the whole army was on high alert to guard against enemy attacks.

Zhuang Mingqi's army of 100,000 is getting closer and closer!

Due to the heavy rain that had just fallen not long ago, the stirred up dust was not visible. However, standing on the tower of Lechang Pass, you can clearly see the 100,000 troops of the Qinqi Empire, pressing the ground.

Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing's hearts were secretly complaining, the team under the two of them was still in a state of exhaustion, and if there was a war, the combat effectiveness would not be half of the usual. However, on the surface, Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing seemed to be indifferent.

At this moment, Li Yan sent someone to report that he and Princess An Huan led 100,000 Great Qin troops, day and night, and were about to arrive at Lechang Pass!

Hearing this news, both inside and outside Lechang Pass were jubilant!

Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing both knew that although the army brought by Li Yan had 100,000 people, they had not undergone formal and strict training, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced!

However, the arrival of the 100,000 Great Qin Army gave Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing's army a shot in the arm!

The 100,000 army led by Zhuang Mingqi and the 100,000 army led by Li Yan were close to Lechang Pass almost at the same time.

Perhaps the shadow of Zuo Ziqi's defeat was too great, and Zhuang Mingqi did not immediately order an attack, but set up camp twenty miles away from Lechang Pass.

The army of the Shenyan Empire was stationed ten miles away from Lechang Pass, so the camps of the two sides were only ten miles apart.

The next day, Zhuang Mingqi sent an envoy to meet Yan Yan.

When Zhuang Mingqi's envoy walked into the camp of the Shenyan Empire, Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing were stunned: the messenger sent by Zhuang Mingqi turned out to be his vanguard general Zuo Ziqi!

Because on that rainy night not long ago, Zhang Changgong and Hong Dajing jointly attacked Zuo Ziqi's camp, and they all knew Zuo Ziqi.

Zuo Ziqi was brought to Yan Yan.

Zuo Ziqi knelt down on one knee very seriously, and said loudly: "Your Majesty the Emperor of the Qinqi Empire, send a letter to Your Majesty the Emperor of the Shenyan Empire!"

After speaking, Zuo Ziqi took out a letter from his arms and held it high above the top.

A soldier took the letter from Zuo Ziqi's hand and dedicated it to Yan Yan.

Luo Luoshen reminded: "Brother Yan, beware of poison in faith!"

Yan Yan didn't care, if the letter from Zuo Ziqi was really poisonous, Yan Yan would quickly shield the poison, and Luo Luoshen and the others would never be harmed.

After opening the envelope, Yan Yan found that the letter was non-toxic.

In the letter, Zhuang Mingqi asked Yan Yan to duel three days later. The venue of the duel was the ring in front of the camp of the Qinqi Empire.

Yan Yan picked up the brush, wrote the word "can" at the end of the letter, and then returned the letter to Zuo Ziqi.

Zuo Ziqi took the letter, saluted Yan Yan, and turned around.

As soon as the left foot left, Luo Luoshen couldn't wait to say: "Brother Yan, this must be a trap set by Zhuang Mingqi! You can't promise him!"

Yan Yan said: "However, I have already promised him. ”

Lorry said, "You may regret it." ”

Yan Yan said four words: "You have no jokes." ”

Luo Luoshen was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "Why didn't you think of the enemy's conspiracy?"

Yan Yan said very firmly: "No matter what conspiracy the enemy has, I am not afraid. ”

Yan Yan's voice is not high, but there is a calmness and self-esteem.

Seeing Yan Yan's confident appearance, Luo Luoshen's heart also quieted down inexplicably.

Next, both armies stood still, in an eerily quiet state.

With Zhuang Mingqi's order, a ring was built.

This ring, more than one zhang high, is square in shape, and the side length is about 20 meters.

The ring is nearly ten miles away from the camp of the Shenyan Empire. It is only three hundred meters away from the camp of the Qinqi Empire.
