It's late at night, the city lord's mansion, inside the lobby!

Wang Ling and Huan Qi were already in place, Bai Qi came in from outside the door, walked to the main seat and sat down, and a few people saluted: "I've seen the general!"

"Ladies and gentlemen, sit down. Bai Qi said lightly.

"General Xie. Zhang Tang and the others replied.

Everyone sat down, and Bai Qi took the lead in asking, "What are the casualties?"

Zhang Tang got up with a little excitement and said: "General Yu: Our army has 40,000 killed, 60,000 seriously wounded, and nearly 100,000 lightly wounded. ”

Bai Qi frowned and said, "In this way, 40,000 more men from my Qin State have died in battle, and there are only more than 200,000 available soldiers,"

"The available number of soldiers is 208,000 soldiers. Wang Ling got up and said.

"Kill the enemy?" Bai Qi said again.

"Kill 150,000 enemies, especially the enemy's Wei Wu pawns are three out of five, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers are less than 10,000. Meng Ming said that he was responsible for this aspect.

"150,000, 100,000 seriously wounded, 180,000 at most, so that there are about 300,000 of the enemy's 550,000 troops left. Bai Qi analyzed.

"It should not be bad, in this battle, our army used the bed crossbow to kill the enemy by surprise, so that they suffered heavy losses, which is really very happy. Huan Qi said with a smile.

"If there is no accident, the six countries should withdraw their troops, they all understand that there is no chance of victory against our Qin army, and it will not be beneficial to both sides if the confrontation continues. Wang Ling said.

"This matter needs to be carefully planned, my Qin State is not something they can come and leave when they want. Meng Mingshi said in an unkind tone.

Several people nodded in agreement, and then discussed.

Speaking of the camp of the Six-Nation Alliance, Wu Qishuai account.

In the tent, the faces of the generals were not good-looking, and no one dared to speak out. Pang Xuan had already woken up, his face was pale, I don't know if it was too much blow, at this time, his eyes were blank for a long time, and he was in a daze.

Wu Qi on the main throne also had a gloomy face, and without saying a word, several generals glanced at him, sneering at the corners of their mouths. In this battle, the Wei warriors of Wei suffered heavy losses, and they had lost their threat to several countries, and the strength of the Wei army, ten percent of which was reduced to four, was no longer to be feared.

In this battle against Qin, no matter what the result is, Wu Qi will be punished by the king of Wei, and it is impossible for him to serve as the general of Wei with the character of the king of Wei, how not to make people happy.

"Boss, if the Qin army invites battle tomorrow, what should we do?" Yan General Lejian got up and asked.

Wu Qi got up, glanced at the generals of the big tent, and said coldly: "From now on, no matter what actions the Qin army makes, they are not allowed to fight, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." ”

"No. The generals answered.

Time is like an arrow, and half a decade has passed in a blink of an eye!

Bai Qi and a few people in Qin State thought that the Six-Nation Coalition would withdraw, but they never thought that the coalition army would neither fight nor fight, so that Bai Qi and others were helpless, if they attacked rashly, the coalition army would occupy all the favorable places and people, and their own side would definitely suffer heavy losses, and the gains outweighed the losses.

Bai Qi was worried that Wu Qi had some plans, so he sent more soldiers to defend the trail near Xinxing City, and ordered all the cities in the three counties outside the Guanxi to strictly defend and not relax, so he was a little relieved.

Such a day lasted for two months, and it was already the second year of the reign of King Qin, April 2.

The next day, on the plain in the center of the camp of the two armies, there was a table table, two futons, and a jar of wine and two wine bowls on the table.

The Qin army and the coalition army camp had two hundred horsemen coming towards the central case, the two sides were fifty meters away from the case, Bai Qi and Wu Qi's personal guards stayed, and the two drove their horses to the case, dismounted one after another, and looked at each other across the case.

Bai Qi took the lead and said: "Qin Guo Bai Qi, I have seen Wu Shuai. ”

Wu Qi replied: "Wu Qi of Wei State, I have seen Wu Anjun. ”

Bai Qi smiled and made a gesture of please, "Please." ”

"Please"

The two sat opposite each other, this time it was Bai Qi's invitation, he was the master, so he opened the wine jar, first filled the wine bowl in front of Wu Qi, and then poured the wine bowl in front of him.

"Please"

"Please"

The two of them worked three bowls in a row, Wu Qi was very calm, he knew very well the reason why Bai Qi invited him to drink, so he was not in a hurry, it was Bai Qi who should be in a hurry.

Sure enough, the two of them had three bowls of wine in their stomachs, and Bai Qi said: "The 400,000 army consumes a lot of food every day, right?"

Wu Qi's eyes narrowed, and he said with a smile: "The daily grain needs are 80,000 stones, 2.4 million stones in a month, and the six countries use 2.5 million yuan to support the people." General Bai is still satisfied. ”

Bai Qi smiled and said: "The Six Nations are really wealthy, I just don't know how many months it can last?"

Wu Qi also said with a smile: "This doesn't need General Bai to worry about, but I think of one thing, even if your country gets the news of the Six Kingdoms attacking Qin, General Bai shouldn't come so quickly." ”

Bai Qi replied: "Wu Shuai should know that my king is only ten years old this year, and since he received the news that the six countries are going to jointly attack Qin, my king is frightened, he can't sleep well, he can't eat well, he can't sleep well, and he is getting depressed day by day. He was specially ordered to lead an army to guard the gate of the country, so that my king could sleep well. ”

Wu Qi was dumbfounded, knowing that Bai Qi didn't want to say anything, so he didn't ask anymore, and changed the topic: "Is the Qin State really the king of Qin in charge?"

Bai Qi perked up, became serious, and asked, "Why do you say this?"

Wu Qi said disapprerovantly: "Why should Wu Anjun pretend not to know, it is rumored in the Six Kingdoms that the Qin State is controlled by you, Wei Ran, and Shang Ying, Wu Anjun, and Wu Anjun and Sui Hou are in charge of the army." ”

Bai Qi knew that if it was said that the Qin State was controlled by the ten-year-old Qin Wangzheng, if he hadn't personally witnessed and experienced it, he wouldn't have believed it, it was too shocking, and it was no wonder that the people of the Six Kingdoms didn't believe it, so there were rumors that he and the other three were in charge of the government.

I am afraid that there is also a reason for the Six Kingdoms to attack the Qin State, and it is a big taboo for the Lord Shaoguo to suspect it.

What is happening in the Qin State now, the people of the six countries in Qin can't send the news out, otherwise they wouldn't think so. However, it may not be, the people of the Six Kingdoms will also think that the three of them have created the momentum, making them believe that it is too ridiculous for the Qin State to be ruled by a ten-year-old child, so they would rather make up for the fact that all this is done by the three of them.

Since the people of the Six Kingdoms think that the Qin State is controlled by the three of them, it is not impossible for them to think like this, thinking of this, Bai Qi said: "Don't talk nonsense, these Yao words are really seriously hurting us and despising my king." ”

Wu Qi looked like this, and he didn't want to talk to Bai Qi more, so he got up and said: "Qi, there is still military affairs in the camp, so I will leave here, and I hope that General Bai Haihan." ”

Bai Qi also got up and replied: "There are still important things to do, so I won't stay here anymore." ”

The two greeted each other and said goodbye.

Bai Qi looked at Wu Qi and rode towards his guards, and sighed secretly, unable to get out of Wu Qi's mouth the reason for their delay in withdrawing their troops.

Bai got on his horse and turned back to the camp.

Another month passed, and Bai Qi and Wu Qi drank four or five times before the battle, and the more the two talked more and more, talking about the art of war, learning from each other, but there was a feeling of hating each other.

...............

There are three roads to go for the six countries to attack the Qin State, one is the Hangu Pass, which is one of the six countries that attacked the Qin State several times, the most difficult road to attack is the Hangu Pass, the pass is located in a deep and dangerous valley, the terrain is dangerous, the narrow place can only allow a carriage to pass, the so-called "the car is not on the track, the horse is not the same as the bridle", you can imagine how difficult the Hangu Pass is to attack.

The second route is the Wuguan of the Qin State, the Wuguan is located on the border of Qin and Chu, and is controlled by the Qin State, but this road, the mountain road is narrow, and after the Wuguan is laid, it is necessary to lay the Lantian Pass or Dachang Pass, in addition to the fact that it is far away from Xianyang, and although the Hangu Pass is difficult to beat, the Hangu Pass is the Guanzhong Plain, and the capital of Xianyang is a horse Pingchuan, so the six countries generally choose the road of Hangu Pass.

There is also a route that bypasses Hangu Pass, from Dasan Pass and Tongguan, but this route is not the same as Wuguan.

In addition to these three routes, there is actually another one, that is, to the north of the grassland, and then from the grassland to the south is the northern county of Qin, and then directly into Xianyang, there are basically no difficult checkpoints along the way, King Zhao Wuling thought about destroying Qin like this, but he didn't have time to take actual action, he went.

Northland!

A canyon in Qingyang County, at the entrance to the north of the canyon, there is a 300 cavalry wounded all over the body, and fled in a hurry, they are the defenders of the northernmost Great Wall in Beidi County, there were 50,000 defenders, after the defeat of the Xiongnu, 43,000 were withdrawn, and only 7,000 were left to garrison Beidi Pass.

These 300 cavalry is the garrison soldiers of Beidi Pass, yesterday night, tens of thousands of cavalry appeared out of nowhere, launched a fierce attack on the Beidi Pass they guarded, a bloody battle overnight, there were 800 people left, and the checkpoint fell.

A thousand people will understand that according to the Qin law, it is also a capital crime, and they will be cowardly, and they will flee with 300 people, preparing to fall into the grass, and the remaining 500 people will follow the guards to die.

This thousand-man general never thought that the enemy would chase after them and chase them from the border pass to the 'Yanzhan' gorge, which is about 50 miles long and about 50 zhang high.

Ten miles of sand and dust rolled behind the three hundred cavalry, carrying endless might, rolling towards the canyon.

The three hundred cavalry did not stop at all, and drove directly into the canyon, and soon, countless cavalry wearing battle armor came to the mouth of the canyon and stopped.

This cavalry was about 70,000 people, and the commander of the cavalry was in front of the ten thousand armies, looking into the canyon from afar, and fell into deep thought.

Ma Jindao, the deputy general beside him, said: "Isn't the general worried about an ambush?"

The main general Yan Fei nodded, and the deputy general Ma Jin said anxiously: "The general can't hesitate, in addition to the three hundred enemies in front, the Qin army guard must have sent someone to send a letter for help last night, in order to capture Beidi Pass at all costs, our army has killed nearly 30,000 soldiers." We still have 70,000 cavalry left, and we must quickly capture Hangu Pass when the Qin State does not react. If we send scouts to investigate, our army will be delayed for a few more hours, and if the defenders of Hangu Pass receive the news and are prepared, everything will be over. ”

"I don't know how Ben will be, it is precisely because of our heavy responsibility that we must not make the slightest mistake, otherwise we will ......"

Yan Fei couldn't go on, if they failed, the Six Kingdoms' attack on Qin would also fail, and the price they paid was too great.

Ma Jin said again: "The general is too worried, all the troops of the Qin State are either transferred to Xinxing City, or on the way to Xinxing City, where are there still troops coming to ambush us." ”

After speaking, he heard bursts of birdsong from the canyon, and said with a happy face: "General, listen, birdsong." ”

Yan Fei also turned yin into joy, and ordered: "Hurry forward." ”

"No"

The 70,000 cavalry soon rushed into the canyon from the entrance of the 'Yanzhan' gorge, as if they had rushed into the belly of a wild beast.
