Camp of the Spirit Army.

At this time, Huang Zu had already led his army to the vicinity of Pingyi and temporarily set up camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, all the generals gathered, all of them looked at him without blinking, Ye Gui was anxious, and couldn't help asking: "Huang Shuai, what did Qin Jun say in his letter?" ”

Huang Zu put away the letter in his hand, glanced at him and said: "This letter is written by Qin Shuai Su Yi himself, Tongcheng has been taken by the Qin army, but they are not in a hurry to continue to advance, but to use strange troops to go up obliquely, and now after attacking Pingyi, they want to cooperate with our army in the northwest front." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and walked to the sand table, first looked down, and then pointed to a place and said, "According to the explanation in the letter, Su Yiqibing should be here." ”

All the generals also followed him, and when they heard the words, they looked down and immediately saw it at a glance.

The partial general was suddenly overjoyed: "Huang Shuai, if the Qin army suddenly appears here, it will be equivalent to cutting off the ghost clan reinforcements, Pingyi City, isn't it in the bag?" ”

"That's right! The Pingyi ghost army, but more than 10,000, in the absence of reinforcements, our army only needs to storm for two or three days, and it will be able to take it in one fell swoop! ”

Another general was full of excitement, and after speaking, he hugged his fist at Huang Zu: "Huang Shuai!" With the cooperation of the Qin army, use the troops immediately! ”

"En......" Huang Zu nodded slowly, he was a famous general of the Spirit Country, in this case, he naturally would not hesitate, and immediately said:

"Herald! Immediately launch a strong attack on Pingyi! Force the ghost clan reinforcements to step up and fall into the Qin army's ambush circle! ”

"No!" The generals clenched their fists.

After everyone went down to prepare for battle, there was only one civilian officer left in the tent.

This civil official, the permanent commander of the army, this time is no exception, he is very familiar with Huang Zu, and now seeing that he is not as excited as other generals, the civil official can't help asking: "What is Huang Shuai worried about?" ”

"No, this battle will be won, I don't have any worries, just ......"

Speaking of this, Huang Zu glanced at the civil official, and suddenly changed his words: "Can you see Su Yi's ultimate strategic purpose?" ”

"This ......" the civil official hesitated for a moment, and said truthfully, "It is still unknown. ”

"He's probably going to fight a counter-siege." Huang Zu said quietly: "This person has a unique military vision, is not bound by common sense, does not abide by the art of war, and has rich battlefield experience, no wonder King Qin values it so much." ”

The civil official didn't know how to answer, so he could only say: "Su Yizhi, a famous general of the Qin State, is not a waste of fame. ”

Huang Zu smiled, no longer said more, but returned to the handsome case, picked up the pen and began to write.

This is a battle report passed on to the Spirit King, and he wrote a lot, not only explaining his current situation in detail, but also mentioning Su Yi.

At noon, the spirit army came to the city, and then without saying a word, they immediately launched a strong attack on Pingyi City.

This time the siege battle was still very bloody.

The blood of the soldiers on both sides was thrown over the city.

The spirit army went forward one after another, and from a distance, the strings of soldiers on the ladder were full of soldiers who were desperately climbing.

Stones and logs are constantly falling, and arrows are shuttling back and forth in the sky.

At the head of the city, the ghost soldiers resisted desperately.

Due to the defeat of Licheng, Pingyi's side has been more careful, not only to strengthen the city defense, but also to have a tight defense line, as long as there is a vacancy in one place, there will be someone on top of it immediately.

In this case, the advantages of the ghost army's individual combat ability are not weak, and it should be no problem to defend the city according to the defense, with more than 10,000 people, it should be no problem to defend it for a few days.

But Mace panicked, he couldn't help but grab the neck of a ghost army: "Where are the reinforcements!" Haven't the reinforcements arrived yet!? ”

"Villain, villain doesn't know, general......" The ghost army stammered.

Mace was furious and pushed it away, but at this moment, a herald ran up in a panic, and before the person arrived, he had already called out urgently: "Reinforcements! We've got reinforcements, General—"

Yes!? When Mace heard this, his eyes immediately widened, and he hurriedly dragged the soldiers: "Reinforcements!" Where's the reinforcements!? ”

"There has been news that in two days, two days at most, reinforcements will arrive!" The herald hurried back.

"Good!" Hearing this, Meston gained some confidence again, and after letting go of the herald, he also held his scimitar in his hand, and shouted loudly:

"Warriors! Our reinforcements are coming—"

"Hold on! Hold on to them for me—"

"As long as we hold on this time, the Spirit Army will definitely be defeated-"

Encouraged by him, and hearing about the reinforcements, the ghost army was undoubtedly demoralized, and the resistance became more intense.

This siege battle lasted from noon until it was nearly dark, and it was over.

Under the fierce resistance of the Pingyi ghost army, the spirit army had no choice but to temporarily withdraw its troops.

But then, Huang Zu ordered a succession:

"With the first, third, fifth, and seventh infantry formations, it is the first echelon."

"With the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth infantry formations, as the second echelon."

"With the ninth and tenth infantry armies, as the countermeasures."

"Attack Pingyi day and night!"

"Generals of all departments, tell the soldiers below! Everyone, be brave and kill the enemy! ”

"Within two days, we must break through Pingyi!"

"At the same time that the Qin army annihilates the ghost clan reinforcements, cooperate with them to complete the tactical clearance of the northwest front!"

"Order!" A group of generals shook their fists.

Under its supreme military order, the spirit army began to take turns to fight, without stopping, and had the posture of defeating more than 10,000 ghost troops in Pingyi City.

Under such a sharp attack, the ghost army was somewhat unable to withstand it, and its strength was constantly decreasing.

Two days later, the Qin army ambushed the main road.

On the left side of the mountain, Su Yi was still lying on a big rock leisurely as he had done two days ago.

Xu Rong couldn't help but come over and said with a little worry: "Su Shuai, we have been waiting here for three days, and there is no trace of the ghost army, and besides, the dry food carried by the soldiers is almost exhausted." ”

Due to the surprise attack, this army is not able to carry grain and grass at all, and it does not want to have any follow-up supplies.

Su Yi said in a flat voice: "Isn't there a mountain spring in the mountain?" ”

"Yes, the water source is not a problem, it is just ......," Xu Rong said.

But before he finished speaking, Su Yi had already interrupted him: "Just have a water source, keep waiting, if you don't have anything to eat, eat grass." ”

He said it so easily, Xu Rong couldn't help but swallow when he heard it.

He only joined the Qin army when Xiao Yuan pacified the Liang Kingdom, where would he know the hard battles of the Qin army before.

At this moment, a Snow Clan spy also lowered his waist, hurriedly ran over, knelt down on one knee and said, "Su Shuai! There is a case! ”

"Oh!?" When Su Yi heard this, his spirit was shocked, and he immediately turned over, and while lying behind the boulder and looking down, he also pressed his hand behind him.

The countless Qin soldiers behind him understood, and instantly stopped whispering and other movements, and all lowered their bodies.

Xu Rong also lay next to Su Yi with a nervous face.
