On the front line of the turbid deer, the cavalry commander commanded the Yan army against his tactics of preventing Qin Kai's strong attack, and now, he is attacking the turbid deer day and night, and the sound of killing in front of the pass every day is shocking, and the casualties are heavy. The soldiers' original praise for him has also turned into complaints.

There is no harm if there is no comparison, everyone has thoroughly seen Qin Kai and Qijie's ability up and down.

When Qin Kai advocated an all-out attack, it was because Zhao Xing was not in Daijun, and the Daijun group of dragons had no leader. At the same time, Daijun has few people, as long as he attacks with all his strength, he can break through and win.

As a result, now that Zhao Xing is back, Zhao Yong has also followed, and Zhao Yong has brought another 100,000 Zhao troops. Now, the enemy who closes the gate is a group of dead and wounded, and there will be another batch, and the batch is endless. I have a group of dead and wounded here, so I will reduce a group, the original 200,000 Yan army, now there are only 150,000 dead and wounded. Such huge casualties are unbearable. The soldiers have begun to become war-weary.

Faced with such a situation, Qi Jie felt that the other side was invincible, and he felt that the eyes of the soldiers looking at him had changed, and his heart began to panic.

He was a little dazed now, not knowing how to continue, and to be honest, he was already starting to get discouraged.

At this time, King Yan's messenger arrived, opened King Yan's book, and Qi Jie was not frightened by Zhao Xing's sudden appearance in Yandu, but had a sense of relief. Because, he has an excuse to end the predicament in front of him, and he can justifiably withdraw his troops.

With a feeling of joy, he convened a meeting of the generals and announced the order of King Yan to order the army to return to the national capital. I thought I would get the cheers of the war-weary soldiers, but there was silence in the big tent. The lower army Zuo Wusheng broke the silence: "I don't know how to arrange such a withdrawal?" ”

Of course, Qi Jie said: "Since the national capital is in danger, then we will return to the aid as quickly as possible." ”

"So, what to do here?"

Qi Jie said: "What else to deal with, the war here is over, let's deal with another war." In front of Yandu, wouldn't it be a greater military feat to annihilate Zhao Xing, who was sent to death? ”

Xia Junzuo cautiously reminded: "Who will be left behind?" ”

"After the break?" It's very confusing to ride Jie. He really didn't expect this: "The Zhao people have been beaten by us, so they shouldn't be chasing." ”

Xia Junzuo's head was dizzy at the time, he really didn't expect that this general, who was praised as a famous general by the people of Yan Guoguo, didn't even have this common sense, how could he get it.

Yan Kingdom, in fact, is a very sad vassal state, enjoying the country for the longest time, known as the land of generosity and sorrow. But there has never been a real celebrity. Like Qin Kaiqijie, who is placed in any other vassal state, he can be regarded as a mediocre guy, and he can be regarded as a famous general and god of war here. Of course, Le Yi in history is excepted, because Le Yi is already Zhao Xing's pawn.

In the face of such mediocrity, the Chinese army general could only stand up and say: "Zhao Yong's 100,000 army is full of morale, why should he be discouraged? Once our army withdraws, they will definitely know that Zhao Xing's treacherous plan has succeeded, and they will definitely wave their troops to pursue us. When the time comes, we will be attacked on our backs. Therefore, it is still necessary to leave an army behind the broken rear to ensure the safety of the back of the main force of reinforcements, please check it out to the general. ”

Qi Jie pondered, and the whole army was eager to return to the army, but only then did he remember that this was indeed the case, and this thing really had to be done. So he made a calm decision: "Since Xia Junzuo proposed this matter, then leave the matter after this break to Xia Jun." ”

Xia Junzuo stood up and took the order: "Oh." He was happy to accept the task, one for the sake of the overall situation, and the other to avoid running back and forth. The main thing is that he can avoid playing against Zhao Xing. To tell the truth, Zhao Xing's record of destroying the main force of Qin and Wei in one battle and killing Zhang Yi did make the generals of the various princes jealous.

There are still 40,000 troops under his army, and he can easily do it by relying on the danger of the spoon pass to block the Pujing Pass. In this way, it not only protects the back road for the army, but also saves his army from running, which is the best of both worlds. As for facing Zhao Yong's 100,000 army that was about to chase violently, Wu Sheng was confident that he would be able to block him by virtue of the dangerous pass.

Interrupting Wu Sheng's thoughts, Qi Jie changed his words and said: "However, the 100,000 Zhao people are in Yandu, we must deal with them with absolute strength, and after the break, we will leave 5,000 behind, and block the army that Zhao may pursue." ”

Wu Sheng was shocked at the time, and hurriedly fought for it: "General, five thousand faces a possible 100,000 Zhao army, even if the spoon pass is dangerous, it will not be able to hold it, general, no." ”

The Chinese general also helped to justify: "Our army is tired and war-weary, because we withdrew because we did not win, and the morale of the Zhao army is bound to be like a rainbow." If we only rely on the five thousand tired troops with depressed morale and low morale, it is absolutely impossible to hold the spoon pass, and please ask the general to stay behind the whole army. ”

Qi Jie was furious at the time: "Yandu is in danger, once there is danger, it will shake the country's foundation, we must do our best to annihilate Zhao Xing in Yan State, otherwise we will be the sinners of Yan Country through the ages." ”

The lower army stomped his feet: "If only 5,000 people are left behind, then once the Zhao army attacks with all its might, the spoon pass will fall, and when the time comes, the main force of our army in the retreat, in the case of unstable military morale, will be pursued by the Zhao people again, and the main force will collapse in a blink of an eye." Hundreds of thousands of troops, this is the main force of the Yan Kingdom, once it collapses, we are the real sinners of the Yan Kingdom. ”

Qi Jie was furious: "When you say this, you are greedy for life and afraid of death, and such greed for life and fear of death shakes the heart of the army, and you deserve death." Come on, push Wu Sheng out of the Fa-rectification to boost the morale of the army. ”

The generals were all horrified. Killing the senior general Xia Junzuo is to boost the morale of the army? What kind of bastard logic is this?

So the generals knelt down together and pleaded, and there was chaos for a while.

Qi Jie resolutely disagreed with the retraction of the order, and in the end, the Chinese army general came out to resolve the deadlock: "In this case, let the subordinate army make meritorious service and guard the spoon pass." ”

Wu Sheng is really depressed, he is really dedicated to the country and the overall situation, how can this become a sin.

The Chinese army general pulled the indignant Wu Sheng out, and said helplessly to him: "There are sons with great ambition inside, and mediocre talents outside are stealing high positions because of their background." The monarch can only dream and talk, and the Yan Kingdom is not far from the death of the country. This time, I feel like we're going to suffer a big defeat. ”

Wu Sheng stomped his feet: "Since we know that we are defeated after all, we should work hard to save the trouble, how can we be so accommodating." ”

The Chinese general shook his head bitterly: "If you want to work hard, you will not die in the hands of Zhao Guoren, but will inevitably die in the hands of this mediocre talent." You still have to endure the humiliation, guard the spoon pass, and do something real for the Yan Kingdom. ”

"If you do that, you will lose. As soon as the spoon pass was lost, the retreating army was destroyed after all, and the Yan Kingdom was really finished. ”

The general of the Chinese army looked at Wu Sheng, and finally said solemnly in a low voice: "If you can defend it, if you can't defend it, you can keep it useful and prepare for saving the future Yan Kingdom." He patted him lightly on the shoulder, then sighed and walked back to the tent.

Wu Sheng stood here in a daze for a long time, and finally could only sigh, lit up his five thousand soldiers, and took the spoon.
