The sky was getting dark, and the Yan troops under the city were all lit torches and were still cleaning the battlefield.

The thick smell of blood permeated every corner of the battlefield.

On the north wall of Fan City, under the tattered banner of the Yan Army next to the city tower, Wang Shi and many Yan Army generals stopped and bowed deeply to the Yan Army defending the city who held this banner.

Several Yan soldiers guarding this banner bowed to Wang Shi and other generals in return.

"Where will your lord defend the city?" Wang Shi asked these Yan Jun.

"Our general is there."

Several Yan soldiers pointed at Ma Liang, who was still asleep, and returned to Wang Shidao.

Someone was about to step forward and want to wake Ma Liang up.

Wang Shi waved his hand and stopped this person.

When he came to Ma Liang's side, Wang Shi took off the cloak behind him and gently covered Ma Liang's body.

"Let General Ma rest well and don't disturb him."

The many Yan army soldiers next to Wang Shi, those who are more careful, have already heard the voice of the general Wang Shi, and they are a little choked.

"Let our army camp on the spot outside the city, and after cleaning up the battlefield, let the soldiers rest as well, but send people to keep on guard and prevent the enemy's sneak attack." Wang Shi instructed the generals.

"No." Someone immediately answered.

Standing on the northern wall of Fan City, Wang Shi looked to the north, where the Zhao army was retreating.

Under the illumination of the moonlight, Wang Shi could still vaguely see the defeated Zhao army.

Su Yuan, who was covered in blood, came behind Wang Shi and bowed down and said:

"General, aren't we going to chase after us?"

"No longer pursuing, our army's top priority is to go to Diqiu City as soon as possible, join up with the main force of the front led by Changguo Junlema, and defeat the Three Kingdoms Alliance. Besides, our army also has a large number of wounded soldiers in Fancheng, who urgently need medical treatment. ”

Wang Shi was very calm at this time, although he didn't know the situation of the front of Diqiu, but after the battle of Fan Cheng and the defeat of the Zhao army led by Lian Po, it can be said that he had broken the plot of the Five Kingdoms to attack Yan.

And now that it is getting late, Wang Shi has no interest, and he will be entangled with the Zhao army led by Lian Po.

Besides, the reinforcements led by himself have been running around for days, and they are also exhausted at this time.

Without the ability and desire, he went to pursue Zhao Jun again.

A messenger came to Wang Shi's side and bowed down to report:

"General, two personnel from our intelligence bureau have come and said that there is an urgent military intelligence report from the front of the Emperor Hill."

Wang Shi was startled, turned around, and said to the official: "Let them come." ”

After a while, the herald brought the two of them to Wang Shi's side.

"Captain Wu Fang of the Intelligence Bureau, Second Lieutenant Su Qi, see General."

"No need to be polite, what is the situation of our army in front of Emperor Qiu?" Wang Shi asked anxiously.

Wu Fang smiled and bowed to Wang Shi and said:

"General Qiyu, I just received an urgent message from the front line, my front army has defeated the combined forces of Qin, Wei and Han under Diqiu City, and the enemy has suffered 150,000 casualties and 70,000 prisoners."

Second Lieutenant Su Qi added:

"General, now Changguo Junlejian has led the main force of my front to return and prepare to rescue Fan Cheng. They didn't know that our army had also defeated the Zhao army in Fancheng at the moment. If nothing else, they will be able to rush to Fan City early tomorrow morning. ”

After listening to the words of Wu Fang and Su Qi, the two intelligence officers, Wang Shi let out a long breath of turbid breath in his chest, and the last trace of worry in his heart just now also disappeared.

The generals of the Yan Army around him, along with Wang Shi, all laughed.

"Immediately report this good news to the whole army." Wang Shi happily ordered.

After a while, all the Yan troops in the city and under the city began to cheer:

"Wan Sheng! Wansheng! Wansheng! ”

The shouts of cheer pierced the night sky, waking up Ma Liang and other Yan soldiers who were sleeping at the head of the city.

Ma Liang did not go to see Wang Shi immediately, but silently went down to the city.

In the hot weather in mid-April, not to mention the fatigue of the Yan soldiers defending the city, even the 100,000 reinforcements led by Wang Shi were also extremely tired after marching for days.

When he came to the city of Fancheng, he did not stop, and fought continuously for nearly two hours. One by one, they were already sweating through their clothes and armor, and their mouths were dry. Originally, they didn't dare to relax, because they all knew that they would go to reinforce the front of the Emperor Hill tomorrow.

At this time, the message from the front of Emperor Qiu undoubtedly relieved everyone.

The main force in the front team won a big victory, and now there is no need to rush. At this point, I can finally have a good rest.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion under the city.

Wang Shi asked a few guards behind him, "What's the matter?" Send someone to take a look. ”

Before the guards could reply, a colonel ran up to the city, came to Wang Shi, knelt down on one knee and said:

"General, guarding Fan Cheng, the remaining reserve divisions and naval officers and men, the whole army is assembled at this time, please give it a review by the general."

General Wang Shi was stunned, but reacted immediately.

Nodding to the colonel, he said, "Okay, let Ben take a good look at these warriors guarding Fan City." ”

"No." The colonel got up and replied.

In a clearing in Fancheng City, there were densely packed with Yan soldiers holding torches high.

In the center of the open space, all the remaining officers and men of the reserve division and the naval brigade guarding Fan Cheng have regrouped and lined up in a formation according to their pre-war subordinates, waiting for the arrival of General Wang Shi.

The armor of these Yan soldiers guarding Fancheng was all torn, and the armor was covered with dried blood, and most of the soldiers were wounded all over their bodies.

The word "bloody battle" is not enough to describe these soldiers.

Surrounded by many Yan army generals, the general Wang Shi came to a high place in front of the center of this clearing.

Brigadier General Ma Liang stepped forward first, followed by Navy Brigade Commander Wang Youde and Political Commissar Gu Mulin.

"General, lowly Liaodong County Reserve Division, Brigadier General Ma Liang."

"General, the commander of the First Army of the Navy, Colonel Wang Youde."

"General, deputy general of the First Army of the Navy, Colonel Gu Mulin."

After the three of them reported their official names, they bowed to Wang Shi together.

Wang Shi and the generals of the Yan Army behind him hugged their fists together and bowed back to the three of them.

"The number of staff members was 10,367, and before the war, it was 10,367. The battle for the defense of Fancheng officially began on the 16th and ended today, with 8,627 casualties and 812 serious wounded in our division. ”

"This battle, the lieutenant general...... Adjutant General Gu Tao and below the brigade and regiment level officers, except for one regiment commander who was seriously injured, all ...... All the people were martyred, and only ...... remained. Only the lowly ...... remained"

When Brigadier General Ma Liang reported here, he couldn't cry anymore and couldn't go on.

When many Yan army generals heard this, they couldn't help themselves, and their eyes began to be sour.

The general, Wang Shi, forcibly suppressed the sadness that rose in his heart, and shouted at Ma Liang:

"Brigadier General, Maleonn."

Wang Shi's voice made Ma Liang's whole body shocked.

After years of training, Ma Liang's body immediately straightened upright, and he said loudly to Wang Shi: "Humble duty, here." ”

"Report to Ben with your head held high."

"Obedience." Ma Liang said loudly.

Ma Liang swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva in a row, and the words of the report began to become fluent:

"General Qiyu, our Liaodong Reserve Division, and all the officers and soldiers of the Navy Brigade fought for three days and two nights in a row, facing several times the enemy army, and persevered until the reinforcements arrived, and did not let Fancheng fall into the hands of the enemy."

For a moment, the audience was in awe and silent.

The battle of Lian Heng against Yan, which occurred in the second year of Yan Wang Kang, was a large-scale war initiated by the five states of Qin, Zhao, Chu, Wei and Han in the Central Plains in the face of the rising Yan State.

Prior to this, the countries of the Central Plains were united horizontally and vertically, and there were five large-scale troops, four of which were against Qin and one of them. But just like the result of this time, the thunder was loud and the rain was small, and the result ended in nothing.

After this battle, although the Yan State suffered greater losses, the losses of the Central Plains Five Kingdoms were even greater. In addition to the Qin State and the Chu State, the living military forces of the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, and Han can be said to have been basically completely destroyed by the Yan State.

At this point, Yan finally rose up to the land of China as a big country.

The general trend of the reunification of the world can no longer be stopped by any force.
