A few days later, Li Ji led his army to Yiyang, and at the same time, the Qin army of 100,000 troops was also assembled.

Subsequently, the two sides fought for the first time on the Great Plains outside Yiyang.

In this battle, the two sides had a total of 200,000 troops, and the scene was extremely huge, and the battle line stretched for dozens of miles, which can be described as a series of battles.

And for this first battle, Li Ji also wanted to test Su Yi's reality, compared to the courage of the soldiers on both sides, so he arranged the troops and outflanked them in a roundabout way, bringing the on-the-spot command ability of a commander to the extreme.

Su Yi responded indifferently, counterattacked his various strategic deployments one by one, and then, with the courage of the Qin army, he carried out a certain amount of frontal crushing.

In this battle, the two sides suffered losses from each other, and after the war, they also began to make certain statistics and analysis.

On the side of the Qin army, all the generals gathered, and Lin Chu took the lead in saying: "Su Shuai, according to the information we have learned, Li Ji, this person, the ancestor is the general of the Jin State, he has been in the army for more than ten years, he has fought for hegemony in the Central Plains of the Jin State, has captured many cities, 16 large and small battles, more victories and fewer defeats, in the Jin State, is the second general in addition to Ren Ying. ”

"En......" After listening to this, Su Yi nodded and said: "Li Ji can be said to be a veteran of the battlefield, his advantage lies in his rich experience and never taking risks, this kind of person is actually very difficult to deal with, and it can also be seen from today's battle on the plains that his on-the-spot command ability and military talent." ”

After listening to him, Goldman Sachs said tentatively: "Then, continue to fight a tough battle with the Jin army?" ”

Su Yi shook his head: "This kind of face-to-face decisive battle, although our army is not afraid, but the commander does not like it, but today Li Ji has to fight, so he can only frustrate his spirit first." ”

As he spoke, he looked around again and said: "Pass the order, from today onwards, stick to it without fighting, find Li Ji's weaknesses, attack his shortcomings, and then make plans." ”

"Order!" The generals clenched their fists.

On his side, he temporarily made a state of sticking to Yiyang, looking for Li Ji's flaws, and on the other side, Li Ji was also summarizing the battle.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, after listening to the report of his subordinate generals on the post-war losses, Li Ji couldn't help but shake his head slightly and said:

"Today's battle, it can be seen that the courage of the Qin army, the Qin people, is no longer the same, its officers and soldiers, comparable to the tiger wolf, if this continues to fight, our soldiers, in the frontal battlefield, is inferior to the Qin army, this, we must admit, only know the other party's strengths, and their own shortcomings, in order to avoid its strengths."

He said very seriously, and when the generals heard this, they first glanced at each other, and then the deputy general clasped his fists and said: "Then, in Li Shuai's opinion, how will our department fight next?" If you don't fight a tough battle with the Qin army, how can Yiyang recover? ”

"It's too early to talk about recovering Yiyang, the top priority should be to prevent the Qin army from continuing to penetrate into our country, therefore, Ben Shuaiyi, first after Yiyang, arrange several lines of defense, Yiyang is lost, but there can be no next city to lose!"

After speaking, he said: "In addition, pass on the king, tell the royal court about the current war situation." ”

After the First World War, Su Yi's side, not wanting to kill another 1,000 enemies and losing 800 of his own, began to make military plans, preparing to win with strange moves, Li Ji was even more so, and at the same time worried that Su Yi would continue to march, so he led his troops to retreat dozens of miles, and began to arrange a defensive line before Yiyang.

There was a brief pause in the war for a while, both sides were planning, and more than ten days later, Li Ji's battle report also reached the Jin court.

Hearing that Yiyang had been lost, it was conceivable that King Jin was annoyed and angry, and couldn't help but scold Bao Jing's ancestors for eighteen generations.

Li Ji had already escaped and beheaded him, but the King of Jin was still angry, that is, he crumpled the battle report on the king's case into a ball and threw it into the main hall:

"Slash! The whole family of Bao Jing dog thieves will be beheaded all over the house! ”

He was a king, and he was furious, and the ministers below were silent, bowing their bodies tightly, and they didn't dare to come out.

After venting, King Jin took a few deep breaths, and then looked at Prime Minister Jin and said, "Prime Minister, Huan Guo, is there any news coming back?" ”

"This ......" Jin Xiang hesitated for a moment, and said: "Back to the king, after our envoy lobbied, King Huan agreed on his face, but in fact, there was some pushback, and the yang and the yin were violated." ”

"This puppet!" King Jin was furious again, and couldn't help but scold: "King Huan is a shameless villain! Three knives on both sides, swaying from side to side! What a no-brainer! ”

Jin Xiang swallowed his saliva and said tentatively: "The reason why King Huan is like this is just to have a wait-and-see attitude first, but now, Yiyang is occupied by the Qin army, which is extremely unfavorable for my country, not only the problem of Huan, but also the problem of strategic arteries." ”

"Then what is the Prime Minister's plan?" King Jin asked in a suppressed voice.

"It's better to send an envoy to Qin, or you can give it a try." There is nothing Jin Xiang can do about it.

After hearing this, King Jin shook his head secretly, and said: "Now King Qin, in the name of assassination sent by this king, raise troops to attack me, at this time to go to Qin State, the prime minister thinks that King Qin will easily stop the army, right?" ”

"If you don't quit the army, you have to try, perhaps, the king should back down one or two in the face, isn't the Qin country poor? The king of Qin can be allowed gold and silver to promote war and peace. Jin Xiang said.

However, hearing this, King Jin was unacceptable: "The prime minister wants the widow to submit to the little Qin Jun of that wild country? ”

"This is not a requirement, as a monarch, the king should understand that losing land is far more important than gold and silver, if gold and silver can be exchanged for peace, why not?" Jin Xiangdao.

King Jin took a deep breath again, and after being silent for a long time, he said helplessly: "Okay, and according to what the prime minister said, send an envoy to Qin." ”

On the Jin side, due to the two-front battle, he was unwilling to fight with the Qin State again, so he sent envoys, and at this moment, Su Yi captured Yiyang and killed 10,000 prisoners, which was also reported to the Qin court.

In the court hall, a minister began to impeach Su Yi on this matter, saying: "King, my Chinese land, although the countries are vying for hegemony, but the killing of prisoners will definitely be true, if my Qin army is like this, then in the future, people in the world will say more and more that I am a Qin person, a barbarian person." ”

Another minister echoed: "Yes, the king, although Su Yi captured Yiyang, but 10,000 prisoners, there is no need to slaughter at all, this is a big mistake, the king must not be unnoticed, nor punished." ”

Next, several more civil officials stood up, all of whom made certain impeachments against Su Yi, and in the end, Xiao Yuan was under pressure and could only say on his face:

"Okay, Su Yi's killing of the prisoner is really inappropriate, and this king will definitely ask him about his guilt! Now, it's not the time to say that. ”

As he spoke, he said: "Today, Yiyang has been captured by our army, and the door of the Jin Kingdom is wide open. ”

The King of Jin sent an envoy to Huan, and Xiao Yuan did the same, and the Central Plains at this time also officially launched the stage of cutting and fighting.
