Chapter 15: Digging a Pit

"Back to the water?"

Prince Yan's army was less than ten miles away from Yishui. When he heard that the Qin general on the opposite side used his troops like this, he was quite surprised.

"Isn't it the general Wang Jian who is in command?" Yan Dan asked.

Yan Guo's spies had already listened to the situation of the Qin army in front of them, and the content was quite detailed, because the other party didn't seem to have any intention of concealing it.

"Prince, the Qin army is made up of the fourteenth prince of Qin, Yingziyi, as the general, and Wang Jian as the deputy."

"That bet rumor turned out to be true." Yan Dan muttered.

"And!" The spy stopped talking.

"And what?" It was Zhao Guogongzi Jia who opened his mouth to ask, he was very stout, and he spoke in a rough voice.

"According to the Qin army, that Ying Ziyi once spoke wildly, saying: 'Zhao Gongzijia, a small man. Yan Taizi Dan, a small person. The army of more than 200,000 people in Yan Country is regarded as powder in the palm of my hand, and it can be broken with a snap of my fingers. ’”

"How can this be true? That six-year-old kid deceived me so much! Childe Jia said angrily.

"Brother Zhao, don't mind!" Yan Dan persuaded. He also knows the temperament of this Gongzi Jia, rough and unscrupulous, but has an excellent reputation (that is, love of face), but what is there to worry about with a child.

The generals of the Yan Kingdom asked Yan Dan to open his mouth, and they also stepped forward to comfort: "I want that ignorant boy who is lined up with his back, he doesn't know the height of the sky, he will break the Qin army one day, and he will be captured and sacrificed to the two highnesses." ”

"It's really heaven helping Dayan, Yingzheng's faint monarch uses a six-year-old child as a general, and he is doomed to defeat. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the last general will ask for battle. ”

"The last general is going to fight!"

"The last general is going to fight!"

In the big tent, the generals of Yan State all walked out of the train and began to ask Yan Dan for battle. But he just shook his head, he still had some indescribable doubts in his heart, and the source was only a six-year-old child.

After a while, Yan Dan shook his head slightly, "In this way, Ronghui, you will lead 50,000 soldiers and horses to be the vanguard of our army, and go to meet the fourteenth prince of the King of Qin." His Royal Highness Gongzi and I will arrive later. ”

"A certain general commands!"

After the military deliberations were over, everyone withdrew. Yan Dan was the only one left in the empty tent. He sighed in his heart, since the death of Jing Ke and Qin Wuyang, the Mo family has lost two top masters, and he himself has also lost two good friends. After sending his two friends to the ghost gate with his own hands, his heart is no longer as decisive as before, and there are only endless hesitations and regrets.

Yan Dan is not such a cold-blooded person after all, maybe he wants to become an ink man, a chivalrous and righteous life, and a happy life of revenge. But as the prince of a country, even if he is extremely noble, Yan Dan can't really live as he wishes

"Yan Guo's army is coming so fast?"

Ying Ziyi stood on the towering wooden watchtower in the center of the camp, observing the Yan army in the distance. The other party has a clear banner and excellent armor, and should be the main force of the Yan army.

"What are you going to do?" Xiaomeng was beside him and asked.

"You also know that commanding the army to fight, this is not my forte!"

Xiaomeng chuckled, "Then you still dare to brag in front of everyone and say something like treating the Yan Dynasty coalition army as a powder in the palm of your hand, and you can break it with a snap of your fingers." ”

"Hahaha! Commanding armies is not my forte, I'm good at digging holes. Ying Ziyi smiled awkwardly, "Besides, there is Wang Jian in the army, even if it is a backwater formation, the morale of the Qin army will not be dispersed for a while and a half, and it will not be a problem to hold it for ten days and a half months." ”

"Dig a pit?"

"Look!" Ying Ziyi said, the Yan army on the opposite side had already begun to move, and the Yan army soldiers holding shields and short blades began to move slowly, coming towards the Qin army camp.

According to Ying Ziyi's instructions, the Qin army had already set up layers of antler horse pens outside the camp, and also seized the time to dig a trench that was not too deep. After this layer of obstacles, there were already Qin army crossbowmen on standby behind, just waiting for the other party to walk into a suitable distance.

The arrows were like rain locusts, with the sound of breaking through the air, and fell into the array of the Yan army, but with little effect.

The Qin army's crossbow array is powerful in the world, how can Yan Dan not be guarded. Among the 50,000 forwards brought by Ronghui this time, they were specially equipped with a thousand large shields specially made by the craftsmen of Yanduzhong.

The shield is thick and broad, and it is engraved with gluttonous beasts, which are hideous and terrifying. It was enough to protect three or four Yan soldiers from the Qin army. However, the materials used to make the shield are extremely extensive, and the uses are extremely limited, and not everyone can resist it, so it does not have the feasibility of large-scale equipment. On the way of the Yan army, a thousand Yan national warriors held large shields, covering the archers and pawns under them, and moved towards the Qin army camp.

"Wow!" Ying Ziyi looked at the situation on the battlefield, and seeing the Yan army getting closer and closer, he couldn't help but exclaim, "It seems that Yan Dan also took some effort!" ”

"You don't seem to be in a hurry?" Xiaomeng asked.

"Look, they're getting close to the trap I've set."

"Trap?" Xiaomeng looked into the distance, and saw a Yan army wrestler holding a big shield and the Yan soldiers under him marching at an extremely slow speed, and suddenly fell into the big pit, and the four or five Yan soldiers fell into it, and soon there was no sound, it should have been hit by some mechanism. The rest of the Yan army could not be rescued, and they were afraid of the same fate, so every time they went further, some soldiers stretched out Changge and knocked on the ground to ensure the safety of the road ahead.

"You ordered someone to dig this pit?" Xiaomeng asked.

"yes!" Ying Ziyi said.

"Why only dig one?" Xiaomeng wondered.

"Don't worry, look!" Ying Ziyi pointed to the battlefield in front of him, and after a long period of exploration, the Yan army returned to its original speed after determining that there were no pits in front of it.

However, poof, just after a dozen steps, another small group of Yan soldiers fell into the pit. Yan Jun began his cautious exploration again.

This tossed and turned, and the cycle was repeated several times. finally exhausted the sharpness and morale of the Yan army's forwards. The Yan army was only three or four hundred paces away from Qin Yingben, but after two hours, they had only advanced a small distance.

Rong Hui saw that the long-term battle was unfavorable and demoralization was wasted, so Mingjin withdrew his troops. This temptation of the Qin army was immediately over

Ten days later, the thistle capital, Tang pear hall.

"Brother Wang, look. The commander of the 100,000 Qin army was just a six-year-old baby, who did not know the art of war, and lined up with his back. However, the crown prince has an army of 180,000 troops, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses have helped the prince of the country. Brother Wang, the prince is preserving his strength, and his heart must not be ignored! Yan Chunjun, as always, slandered in front of Yan Wangxi.

King Yan Xi paced back and forth, hesitating, he knew in his heart that the most suitable person for leading the army in Yan Country at this moment was only Yan Dan, but he was not afraid of him for a day or two.

"So be it! Spread the widow's will, reprimanded Yan Dan, and ordered him to speed up the use of troops, within five days, if he did not break the Qin army, the widow would remove him from the position of general. ”

"Brother Wang is wise!" Yan Chunjun bowed his head and grinned. Whether Yan Dan can break the Qin army or not is not what he cares about, he only cares about whether Yan Dan has lost power

"Let's go, let's go to Feixue Pavilion today!" Yan Chunjun, who left the Yan Palace, was extremely happy, as if Yan Dan's loss of power was already a sure thing. He knew in his heart that the 100,000 Qin army was nominally commanded by Ying Ziyi, but in fact it was commanded by the general Wang Qian.

The 100,000 Qin army is still under the command of the famous general Wang Qian, how could Yan Dan break through the Qin army within five days? Even if he is lucky enough to break through, the Yan army will definitely suffer heavy losses. When he arrives, he can also slander in front of King Yan, saying that Yan Dan is enough for him to drink a pot for his own name, regardless of the life and death of the soldiers.

So now, he openly went to the Feixue Pavilion, the place where Yan Dan was shining. Snow girl, that little girl, he's been coveting it for a long time.

It's just that what Yan Chunjun didn't know was that in the dark, a pair of fierce eyes were staring at him
