When most of the Qin and Wei troops fell asleep in the temporary camp, the general Wang Jian did not feel the slightest tiredness. Although it was already early summer, the weather in the north was still a little cool in the second half of the night. He is no longer the dragon spirit of his youth, he feels the coolness in the wind, and involuntarily tightens the clothes on his body.

After removing the armor, this famous general of the Qin State had dry and gray hair, and his figure looked a little thin. If it weren't for the fact that he was surrounded by this army, walking casually in the fields, he would have thought that he was just an ordinary farmer.

Wang Jian is famous for his prudence in the use of soldiers. Many of his opponents who have lost at his hands have to admit that he is almost unmatched in terms of meticulous planning and cunning. Therefore, Wang Jian, who was called the "Silver Fox" among the princes, even the most famous general in the world, had a lot of headaches to fight against such a person.

The reason why Wang Jian didn't want to sleep was, of course, not that he was worried about the success or failure of tomorrow's war. In his eyes, it was only a matter of time before he conquered Dragon City. No matter how stubborn the resistance of the Zhao army was, when the 130,000 army surrounded the royal city, they could not hold out for three or five days.

However, the only reason why he felt a little worried was the shortage of logistics supplies in recent days. Actually, there is no way to say this. The most fundamental reason is that the speed of the army is too fast. The people who followed behind and were in charge of transporting the baggage were really a little undersupplied. As a famous general who has experienced many wars, Wang Jian certainly understands the hardships of the baggage troops. Therefore, he did not punish him.

Of course, he wouldn't be too forgiving. After all, for such a large army, there must be no shortage of logistical supplies. Otherwise, it is likely to shake the morale of the military. It can even affect the success or failure of the war.

Fortunately, after he sent people to urge him sternly, the materials, grain and grass collected from the rear quickly stepped up, and they followed the arrival of the army at any cost. Whether it was the king of Qin or the king of Wei, they all regarded this war as extremely important, and no one dared to slack off. The minister in charge of this matter of Wei also wrote a military order for this purpose, if the war at the front was affected because of the mistake of follow-up provisions, he was willing to accept the punishment and never complain!

And Nie Yunfeng, the son of Qin State, who was in charge of logistics support, directly escorted a batch of grain and grass weapons and personally came to the army to sit in town. If at this juncture, a subordinate official dares to make a mistake in front of this stern son, the consequences can be imagined, and it will definitely be extremely tragic.

At this moment, the lights are bright in the big tent of the Chinese army. Wang Jian sat cross-legged and was talking with the general of Wei and Nie Yunfeng, who had just arrived in the evening. The reason why these two people didn't sleep was because of the excitement of approaching Dragon City tomorrow.

"I didn't expect Zhao Guoren to do such a great job! Within hundreds of miles, there is not a grain of grain left for us...... I don't know which guy came up with this poisonous plan. If I find out who it is after breaking through Dragon City, I will definitely screw his head off with my own hands! ”

When I talked about this as a child, I couldn't help but feel angry when I left the car with a beard on his face. This also can't blame him, he has worked so hard to run such a long way, not only did he not loot any wealth, but he didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of food from the people of Zhao State. Not to mention his short temper, even a scheming character like Wang Jian is extremely angry.

"General Che doesn't have to be like this! We have a lot of grain and grass, and we are constantly being transported in the future. Did the people of Zhao Guoren think that by doing so, they would be able to stop the advance of the Qin and Wei armies? The person who came up with this idea, in my opinion, was simply too naïve. It is only to disturb their people in vain and make them panic. ”

Nie Yunfeng, the prince of Qin, is the eldest son of King Qin, and in addition to his identity, this person also has a certain influence in the army. What he said, as a general of Wei State, Che Li, is not easy to refute casually. I had to nod and echo a few words. But Wang Jian coughed lightly, glanced at Nie Yunfeng and said.

"Don't think too simply. Although King Zhao is dead, there are still old guys like Fei Yi and Zheng Liancheng. They still have a certain ability to resist, and this plan to clear the wilderness has more or less had some impact on our army. After all, if we go deep into the territory of Zhao State, if we can't get the enemy's supply and subsidies, and only rely on the transportation from the rear, this matter will still have a certain risk. ”

Although Nie Yunfeng has a noble status, he has always had unspeakable ambitions. In order to borrow the strength of the army, he has always had great respect for influential generals. Therefore, when he heard what Wang Jian said, he nodded again and again, making a look of great agreement.

"What the general said is naturally very reasonable. However, don't worry. This time, the grain and grass collected from the rear were very sufficient, and all of them could reach the army before dawn at the latest. They are enough to ensure that the army can successfully end the Battle of Dragon City! Hehe! ”

Hearing him make such a sure guarantee, Wang Jian and Che Li glanced at each other, and their faces couldn't help but show relaxed expressions. Now Qin and Wei are one, attacking Zhao together, and they are not separated from each other. Since the supply of logistics support is sufficient, both sides have no worries.

"Then I'm relieved. Tonight I have ordered 8,000 cavalry to take down Pingling Pass. The eldest prince can go and order the people who transport the baggage, and tomorrow they will be transported directly to Pingling Pass. Until the end of the Battle of Dragon City, it will be the location of the army's heavy supplies. ”

Wang Jian said casually, while the other two nodded frequently, thinking that this location, which was not far from Dragon City, had been chosen very well. In their subconscious, no matter who it was, they never thought that there would be any accidents in this small operation of the Qin State cavalry.

However, accidents always come when people least expect them. That's why it's called an accident!

"It's not early, if there is nothing else to do, please ask the eldest prince and General Cheli to rest. Tomorrow's war ....... ”

Before Wang Jian finished his sentence, he suddenly heard the sound of rapid horses' hooves, breaking through the silence of the night. Although it was still far away, his face changed all of a sudden.

"Check it out...... Who dares to gallop in the land of the army! ”

The general gives the order, who dares to slacken! The patrol sergeant who was in charge of guarding the camp outside immediately rushed to the scene. In just a few moments, he brought people in. Under the lights, I could see that it was a captain of the Great Qin cavalry, his face was covered with blood, and as soon as he came in, he lay on the ground and wailed loudly.

"General......!"

Wang Jian held a few cases in his hands, and an ominous premonition filled his body. In an instant, even he didn't feel that his voice had been transposed.

"What's going on? Come on! ”

Not only him, but Che Li and Nie Yunfeng next to him had already stood up at the same time. Judging by this situation, it must have happened to the cavalry team that had just set off. Otherwise, this cavalry lieutenant would not be so embarrassed. Sure enough, what they heard afterwards confirmed the premonition in their hearts.

"Defeated...... Cavalry defeat! General, we encountered a surprise attack by the cavalry of the Zhao State...... Almost most of the eight thousand Great Qin cavalry were killed. ”

The lieutenant got up from the ground with difficulty, and the crowd saw clearly that he had been slashed by a knife on his forehead, and that there was a featherless arrow pierced into his left rib, which seemed to be shot deeply.

"What do you say! How is this possible...... What about Wang Xuanwu? If you are so incompetent, I will punish you! ”

Wang Jian's face turned pale. These 8,000 cavalry were the elite of the Qin State, and he didn't believe that they would fail. The first thought that rose in my heart at this moment must have been caused by the command error of Wang Xuanwu, who led the troops. If this is really the case, even if it is his own nephew, he will definitely not show mercy!

"General, General Wang...... Already tragically killed! The remaining brethren desperately snatched his body back, right outside. General, please...... Avenge us! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the seriously injured lieutenant could no longer hold on, and his body fell to the ground, and he was devastated on the spot. But his eyes are still wide open, and he can't be said to be blind.

Wang Jian stood up, came to the captain, stretched out his hand and pulled out the bloody arrow, and then closed his eyes with his hand. He didn't say a word, and when he walked to the door of the big tent, he saw two or three hundred embarrassed cavalrymen gathered outside, waiting for the departure with their heads bowed. As far as the eye can see, almost everyone is injured, and no one returns unharmed.

Then, the famous general of the Qin State looked down and saw the corpse lying at his feet. After just one glance, he felt his qi and blood surge, and he almost fainted after taking a few steps back. Nie Yunfeng, who was following closely behind him, hurriedly held on, and couldn't help but gasp.

It's no wonder that Wang Jian is so out of shape, it's really because the situation he saw in front of him was too miserable. The cavalry general, who was still majestic a few hours ago, and was also the leading figure among the nephews of the Wang family's later generations, had turned into a cold headless corpse at this moment. To be exact, his head was still there, but it had been completely smashed. It's like a broken big pickle, shocking and unsightly.

"Can anyone tell me...... What kind of people are so vicious?! ”

Wang Jian felt his heart dripping blood. For this war, the price paid by the Wang family is also too great! The death of two important people is undoubtedly a heavy blow to the strength of the family. And he doesn't know how he will face the eldest sister-in-law who lost her husband and son at the same time when he goes back in the future!

"Great General, it was a young cavalry general of Zhao who killed General Wang. No one knows his name...... That guy is amazing! He broke through the army from among the thousands of horsemen, and rushed directly to General Wang's horse, and ...... The weight of that lance, no one can resist! ”

The devastated survivor whispered about the situation on the battlefield at that time. Even in retrospect, the mighty boy who fell from the sky is still terrifying.
