Just when Li Mu's army went straight to Xianyang, the generals of the Qin army who were in the camp of Hanguguan also gathered in Wang Qian's shogunate hall. The Five Nations Alliance had been stationed at the Yique Pass for several days, but there was no movement at all, which made Wang Jian feel quite strange.

"What does Li Mu mean by this?" Staring at the sand table of mountains and rivers in the center of the hall, Wang Jian fell into deep thought.

For the famous Li Mu, Wang Jian didn't dare to hold it up. Judging from the situation, Li Mu seems to have little confidence in the combat strength of the coalition army, so he chose to brake quietly and ambush heavy troops outside the pass to induce the Qin army to fight. In the boundless prairie, Li Mu can still hide more than 100,000 flying horses invisible, and now there are mountains outside Hangu Pass, isn't Li Mu even more like a fish in water? However, the government and the opposition of Zhao State have great hopes for this victory over Qin, if they blindly hold on to each other, how can they tolerate him with Zhao Qian and Guo Kai's generation? Li Mu, Li Mu! People say that you don't understand big politics, but it's true when you see it today!

"General, let's go to war!" The generals shouted in unison.

Wang Jian didn't pay attention to the generals' request for battle, but just stared at the sand table: "It's so calm outside Hangu Pass, or Li Mu has heavy troops." ”

"Father!" Wang Qian's eldest son, the former army commander Wang Ben, couldn't help but retort, "The kings of the temples of the Six Kingdoms are dark and dark, and they can't be the end of the crossbow!" Now he has an army of 400,000, but Yique, who is bound to wander a hundred miles away, is the proof! Why was his father so frightened by Li Mu's previous prestige that he was so cautious? ”

Wang Jian glared at his son fiercely, shook his head and said, "Li Mu's army has not tasted defeat for decades, and it must be outstanding!" This battle is very important, we have to be cautious, the old man would rather delay the battle and win, than seek a quick victory! ”

Li Xin, the commander of the left army, stepped out of the ranks, and said disapplaudedly: "General Li Muwei has always only led the grassland border army, but he has never had the experience of leading the whole country to mix the infantry and cavalry army as a barrier and fight a decisive battle!" Now that he was the commander of the Five-Nation Alliance, the orders of the armies under his jurisdiction were chaotic and complicated, how could he be compared with my Great Qin Ruishi? ”

"Well said!" The generals cheered in unison.

"It's also a reason." Listening to Li Xin's words, although Wang Jian was a little moved, his face was as cold as usual.

When the cheering stopped, Li Xin took a bamboo pole several feet long from the hands of Sima of the Chinese army and pointed to the sand table: "Li Mu's tactics are nothing more than setting up an ambush to intercept the ear!" See, if you ambush an army, there will be emptiness after it! Our army doesn't have to pay attention to Li Mu's ambush, just need to make a detour behind the enemy and attack back and forth, and then we can win a complete victory! ”

"I think it's doable." Feng Zai, the commander-in-chief of the Right Army, who has always been known for his steadiness, took the lead in expressing his approval.

Wang Jian took the bamboo pole from Li Xin's hand and made a new gesture, and then made up his mind. I saw that Wang Jian immediately turned around and walked back to the handsome case, and pulled out the order arrow: "Wang Ben, Yang Duanhe listen to the order!" ”

"The last general!" Wang Ben, the former commander-in-chief, and Yang Duanhe, the former general, responded in unison.

"Order you to wait for the leader to send a letter to Guguan with 100,000 troops! Be sure to make a big splash to confuse the enemy! Wang Jian gave the order sharply.

"No!" Wang Ben stepped forward to take the token, and then retreated into the ranks.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Jian continued to give orders: "Li Xin and Feng go and listen to the order!" ”

"In!" Li Xin, the commander of the left army, and Feng Quji, the commander of the bow and crossbow battalion, stepped forward at the same time and stood by.

Wang Jian glanced at Li Xin with deep eyes, and said word by word: "Order the two of you to lead 100,000 steps to ride out of Shaanxi, and advance eastward along the reed grass beach on the south bank of the river, and go straight behind the enemy's Yique camp!" ”

"No!" The two of them solemnly received the order.

"One more word." After the transfer of troops and horses, Wang Jian instructed again, "In this battle, our army is on both sides of the road, and we must make the order of the battle clear!" General Li Xin went first, arrived at the designated location, and immediately flew to inform him; Later, Wang Ben's army marched from the Hangu Pass to the Yique Pass; The old man's 100,000 army is in the back, if there is no sneak attack on the enemy, he will go out to reinforce! ”

"No!" As soon as Wang Jian finished speaking, a tiger roar suddenly sounded when he raised his tent......

Soon, the two Qin armies quietly separated and opened out of Hangu Pass. Unexpectedly, Wang Ben's army, which originally thought that it would be attacked by ambushes, marched all the way smoothly, and the army came to the Yique Pass unscathed.

"Major General, something seems strange?" In front of him was the coalition camp, but Yang Duanhe still had a faint trace of uneasiness in his heart.

"Don't think about it, notify General Li Xin immediately!" Wang Ben waved his hand hesitantly and conveyed the order to attack.

A moment later, the 200,000 Qin troops launched a fierce attack on the coalition Yique camp from the front and rear directions at the same time, and the defenders in the camp almost collapsed at the touch of a button, and it took less than half an hour for the Yique Pass to be captured by the Qin army.

"General! There are only 100,000 old and weak soldiers of the coalition army stationed in Yique Pass, and there is no Li Mu banner! As soon as Wang Jian led the rear army halfway to the road, he received an urgent battle report from the front.

"What?" Wang Jian was instantly stunned, and was cautious for a long time, but he didn't expect that the coalition camp in Yique Pass was just a bait set by Li Mu, so where is the real main force of the coalition army? Could it be that Li Mu can really hide these hundreds of thousands of troops invisible? A very bad premonition instantly permeated Wang Qian's whole body, "Take the mountains and rivers map!" ”

After a while, the whole map of mountains and rivers made of a whole cowhide unfolded in front of Wang Qian.

"Li Mu, where did you go?" Wang Jian stared at the mountains and rivers to himself, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, "It's not good!" ”

"What's wrong with the General?" Zhongjun Sima asked in confusion.

"Shaoliang Mountain! Shaoliang Mountain! How did the old man forget the Shaoliang Mountains! Wang Jian stomped his foot fiercely, clenched his fists and roared angrily.

At this moment, Zhao Tuo, the commander of the rear army, arrived: "General! I saw Zhao Tuo rolling off the horse, staggering and rushing in front of Wang Qian, panting and reporting, "Zhao ...... General Zhao Xing made an urgent report...... Li Mushu...... Lead the army along the ...... Approaching along the Weishui official road...... Xianyang ......"

The last thing that happened finally happened, and Wang Qian's brain went blank in an instant: "Where is Zhao Xing?" ”

"General Zhao Xing is ...... Seriously injured...... Still being treated! Zhao Tuo stretched out his hand and wiped the sweat on his forehead, his face full of anxiety.

Wang Jian tried his best to shock his mind, Zhao Xing's attack was yesterday, according to this, Li Mu must have hit Xianyang City. It will take two days for the army to return to help at the earliest, and there are only 50,000 old soldiers left in Xianyang City, so it is still unknown whether it can hold out for such a long time.

"General......" Seeing that Wang Jian didn't speak for a long time, Sima of the Chinese army hurriedly stepped forward and reminded, "Without further ado, please make a quick decision on the general!" ”

"Yes!" Wang Jian came to his senses, turned his head to the Chinese army Sima and ordered, "The old man immediately led the army back to Xianyang, and ordered Li Xin and Wang Ben to gather the army and then follow up!" As he spoke, Wang Jian had already stepped on horseback, and with an army of 100,000, he quickly turned around and galloped towards Xianyang......

At this moment, after two days and nights of fierce fighting, the resistance of the outer city of Xianyang had been gradually quelled by the coalition forces, and Xianyang ordered Meng Tian to stand out from the siege under the desperate protection of dozens of defenders. After a short rest, the coalition forces immediately launched a fierce offensive towards the besieged Xianyang Wangcheng.

At the same time as the siege began, Li Mu came to the Mafu Junfu Mansion not far from the royal city alone. As soon as he entered Xianyang, Li Mu sent someone to secretly protect the Mafu Jun's Mansion, so the upper and lower levels of the mansion were not affected by the chaotic army.

"Ma Fujun is okay?" Under the guidance of the old housekeeper, Li Mu walked straight into Zhao Kuo's study. What appeared in front of Li Mu was a general who was over fifty years old, although his beard and hair were gray, his spirit was still incomparable, his body was even more robust and strong, and his whole body exuded a unique resolute temperament of a soldier.

"Li Mu?" The moment he saw Li Mu, Zhao Kuo's face suddenly overflowed with tears. I haven't seen it for more than 20 years, and the young generals who were heroic in the past have now become old men who are more than half a hundred years old, how can this be embarrassing?

The old butler choked up and silently withdrew, and then gently closed the door of the study......

As night fell, the coalition forces finally stopped their offensive, and the royal city of Xianyang fell into a deep silence again. Standing at the battlement of the city tower, Ying Zheng motionlessly looked at the dead silence of Xianyang City under the royal city. It's already the third day, but Wang Qian's army is still silent, there is not much food in Wangcheng, seeing that most of the 20,000 defenders of Wangcheng are killed and wounded, and the reinforcements will not appear again, the city is really running out of food!

"King, the night is cool and breezy, let's go back!" The county guard of Neishi County, who was following behind, whispered a word of persuasion.

"How many more days?" Ying Zheng leaned weakly against the battlements, looking up at the night sky with an expressionless face.

"There are still 8,000 soldiers, but the stock is empty! If the reinforcements do not arrive tomorrow, the minister will lead the soldiers to desperately protect our king and highlight Xianyang! Ying Teng fell to his knees, and his eyes instantly turned red.

Ying Zheng didn't speak, just turned around and patted Ying Teng's shoulder gently, and then walked down the city tower alone.

Tomorrow, is there really a tomorrow?
