When two tigers fight, there must be an injury, Wei Kai never doubted this truth.

This is also why, after Wei Kai knocked out the information about the grassland from the side of the main road Tan Kou in the Bairong camp, he immediately regarded Yiqu, which had not yet completely unified the northern land of Qin, as the great enemy of Qin. After all, in the past, whether it was the dog Rong attacking Zhou or Lin Hu invading the south, it was just to seize money, and finally returned to the north, but Yiqu was obviously different, and the country actually appointed the Central Plains people as officials, learned the etiquette of the Central Plains people, and had the ambition to seize the world, which was definitely not a good thing for the Qin State, which was also entrenched in the west of the Great River.

Therefore, it is very important to crusade against the land that attacked the grassland, but while the Yiqu country has not completely become bigger, it is also very important to eradicate this hidden danger for the Qin country in time, otherwise wait for the jackal of Yiqu to grow up, and then want to easily exterminate it. It is a difficult thing for the Qin State now.

Moreover, in fact, regarding the attitude of the aliens around the Qin State, Wei Kai and the new monarch Yingquliang have long had a common decision in their hearts, that is, "there is nothing to do with each other". In other words, in the process of Qin's efforts to develop the country's strength, Qin only sought to stabilize the surrounding situation, so that it could devote its last bit of financial resources and energy to national politics.

But the premise of all this is that there can no longer be a "little tyrant" around the Qin State that is enough to threaten the rule of the Qin State, and Yiqu just hopes for this, which of course Wei Kai cannot tolerate. After all, if it is allowed to become bigger, even if the Qin State develops, then if the Qin State competes for hegemony in the world, it will inevitably be exhausted by the attacks of the enemy from the east and north of the Qin State, thus trapping his hands and feet.

Therefore, the saying that the outside must first be at home is still very reasonable.

But since the news of Bai Rong came just now, Wei Xingzhong did have a bad thought, and before Wei Xingzhong could think about the intention of Ganlu Tan to send the envoy at this time, a grassland soldier wearing Bai Rong clothes and a gray face was helped in by two Qin soldiers who were guarding outside the tent of the Qin military camp.

Seeing this, Wei Kai, who had been distraught since he heard the news just now, suddenly secretly shouted in his heart that something bad was going to happen, and the Bairong clan went to stop the Yiqu Wangfa, something must have happened. Therefore, before the man could tell him, he immediately stood up and asked, "Who are you?" Why did you end up here? Where is your Great Khan now? ”。

It's a pity that Wei Kai's series of inquiries were not answered, and I saw that the man was like a dead dog at this time, his eyes looked straight at Wei Kai and panting, as if he had a thousand words, but he couldn't say a word.

"General, this is the appearance of the body after escaping from death, let this person rest for a while, after entering the water, I am afraid that he will have the strength to answer", You Jin in the camp saw Wei Kai's shocked appearance at this time, and immediately stood up and said with relief, and then immediately asked people to prepare water and porridge to replenish the physical strength of the person in front of him. After all, with the embarrassed appearance of the self-proclaimed Bai Rong envoy in front of him, it is useless to catch the emergency now, only by waiting for him to rest for a while, can he have the strength to tell what happened.

When Wei Kai heard this, he also knew that his appearance just now was a little anxious and panicked. But when he saw the tragic appearance of the Bai Rong envoy in front of him, he couldn't help but be anxious, after all, it was a matter of whether he could capture the king of Yiqu in one fell swoop.

Therefore, the people in the camp could only wait for the messenger of Bai Rong in front of them, eat some water and rice, and then ask him in detail.

'Ahem, cough, cough', after a rapid cough, I saw the Bai Rong pawn who was paralyzed on the ground just now, after forcibly feeding some water and rice, the color of his face slowly improved, and then he grabbed the kettle in the hand of the feeding Qin pawn next to him and drank it in a big gulp, and after a while, he slowly struggled to stand up, and said slowly to Wei Kai on the side: "My family is a big sweat, let the villain tell the adults that the king of Yiqu has broken through the encirclement of my Bai Rong clan and fled to the north." I hope that Lord Daren will make a plan in advance, and be sure to leave King Yiqu in Qindi...".

Yiqu Wang Fa actually escaped? This is a sentence that keeps echoing in Wei Kai's mind at this time after hearing it. After all, who would have thought that in such a predicament, Yiqu 1 would still be able to escape death?

And as the Bai Rong envoy in front of him slowly narrated, Wei Kai and You Jin and others in the camp understood what happened to the Bai Rong clan on the front line? Although Yiqu's move "Fire Bull Array" was really unexpected, and it did make the unprepared Bai Rong army suffer a big loss, but when he heard that Yiqu Wang Fa had escaped again, Wei Xingxing was still silent for a while. Although he had a premonition in his heart, when he really heard it, Wei Xingxin was really difficult to let go. After all, at this time, the situation of Yiqu can be described as a rebellion and separation, such a good time, but still not trapped, isn't it a pity?

"All the cavalry in the speed adjustment battalion, I will personally go to pursue it", Wei Kai, who was silent for a while, immediately ordered to You Jin beside him. Although Yiqu Wang Fa said that he escaped by luck, but after a series of battles, he must be exhausted, if he can pursue at this time, it is still possible to capture it again in one fell swoop.

When You Jin on the side heard that Wei Kai was going to lead his troops to pursue, he immediately stopped and said, "Absolutely not, general." This thief is so treacherous, who can guarantee that there will be no ambush on the way to retreat. If you rush to pursue, you will definitely suffer a big loss." What the Bai Rong messenger said just now, You Jin on the side also heard it clearly, the Bai Rong army had completely surrounded Yiqu in the camp, which can be said to be a victory, but in the end, Yiqu Wang Fa successfully escaped, and the besieged Bai Rong army was greatly injured.

Although Bai Rong's fiasco may have been due to the combat strength of his army, the low quality of his soldiers, the failure to quickly regroup and the paralysis of the generals in the army, but the Yiqu Wang Fa first showed the enemy to be weak, and then thundered a blow, and the plan of first defeat and then victory was indeed difficult to guard against. And You Jin thought to himself that if he was in the position of Bai Rong's commander and led the Qin soldiers under his command, he might not be able to make better decisions, which shows the cunning and decisiveness of Yiqu Wangfa.

"I have made up my mind, you just need to give an order", Wei Kai heard You Jin's rebuttal, and didn't want to explain, so he stared directly at You Jin in front of him and said in a deep voice.

From Jin Jin, when he saw the appearance of the general, he also knew that his general Wei Xingxing had made up his mind, and no matter how much he objected, he couldn't change it. However, this is not to say that You Jin has no way to stop it completely, although he can't convince Wei Kai, but the general Wei Kai in front of him can't help but listen to the words of the current general of the Qin State.

So he advanced instead of retreating, and arched his hand to the general Wei Kai in front of him: "General, the general has left a military order, let the general find the general, and order the general to take over the position of the last general and take full charge of the Qin army in the camp."

When Wei Kai heard this, he immediately frowned, his subordinates were in advance, and he could indeed come and go as soon as he was summoned, but he couldn't help but listen to the words of the general, and before this trip, he had already been forced by the ministers of the clan who were far away in Liyang to force Qin Jun Yingquliang to remove his military power, so now he has no power to lead the army to kill the enemy privately.

Seeing that Wei Kai bowed his head and was silent, You Jin hurriedly said: "Don't worry, General, the general has already personally led my Qin army with 40,000 iron cavalry to set up an ambush on the retreating road of the enemy army in the grassland. Even if Wang Fa of Yiqu breaks free for a while, he will presumably be captured by the general in the end."

When Wei Kai heard this, his frowning brows relaxed slightly, his eyes lit up, and he raised his head and said, "Really?" ”。

"Such a military event, how dare the general deceive the general."

"I hope that the general can catch the king of Yiqu, and it will be a big hidden danger to my Qin country", Wei Kai heard this, and his heart was also slightly relieved. If the general Yingqian had already set up an ambush in advance, then even if Yiqu Wang Fa escaped for a while, he would be unable to fly in the face of the Qin army, which was waiting for work and strict preparation.

Perhaps the boulder in his heart had been removed, Wei Kai immediately put his attention back on the battle situation in front of him, and assumed the responsibility of the chief general of the Qin army in front of him, so he said to Bai Rong's soldier who came to report the news just now: "You can return now and tell the patriarch of Ganlu Tan that there is no need to worry about the Wang Fa of Yanyiqu, and I, Wei Kai, will definitely not forget the previous promise, and I hope he will not forget the previous promise."

After the Bai Rong envoy left, Wei Kai spoke, looked at You Jin and said, "How many troops are left in the battalion?" ”。

When you heard this, she immediately reported truthfully: "In addition to the 40,000 cavalry taken by the general, there are about 40,000 foot soldiers in the battalion, and less than 2,000 cavalry."

Wei Kai heard the strength of the camp mentioned by You Jin, coupled with the enemy intelligence he had previously found in the enemy camp, he had a general understanding of the battle situation in his heart, and the current situation was obviously the superiority of the Qin army's strength, so he said: "I have been tired for half the night, I think the grassland people who have been on horseback for many years are afraid that they will no longer be able to walk." Order all units in the army to start collecting the net."

"No", Yu Jin said with a smile on his face when he heard it. Previously, the Qin army surrounded but did not kill, just to create chaos, disturb the enemy's morale, and facilitate the Qin army's actions, but now that the situation is clear, there is absolutely no reason to let these grassland people who attacked the Qin State live, and then let the heralds in the camp send orders to the Qin army that is raging in the enemy camp.

As a result, in the Qin army array, which was adjacent to the enemy camp in Luoshui, the war drums suddenly sounded, and the white "Qin" flag on a black background was unfurled. The Qin army, which had already surrounded the enemy camp, under the rumbling horn of the Qin army's camp, followed the leadership of their respective centurions, and began to rapidly shrink and encircle from all sides, and began to crush the enemy in front of them little by little. The camp of the Qin army, which was immersed in the night, began to open its bloody mouth like a giant beast at this time, and attacked the Luoshui camp not far away.

At the same time, the messengers of the Qin State also rode war horses and galloped wildly on the route of the Qin army's attack on the enemy camp, conveying Wei Kai's orders. Suddenly, the Qin army, which was driving away the enemy soldiers and setting fire along the way, suddenly showed their sharp fangs and began to attack in all directions in the enemy camp.

"Kill, kill", in the enemy camp, Zhou Sheng, the centurion of the Qin army, who had been chasing the enemy soldiers for half the night, after receiving the order at this time, a smile suddenly appeared on his slightly dark face, and he hurriedly shouted to the soldiers around him. The people joined the army, originally for the establishment of military functions to get honorable rewards, and in his Chen Cang army, the reward for beheading on the battlefield was also extremely generous, at this time issued an encirclement and suppression order, so that these Qin soldiers who followed the enemy army and also ran for half the night How could they not be happy?

What's more, these thieves had already been frightened at the moment when the Qin army broke the camp, and then they were coerced and chased by the Qin army who broke the camp for half the night, and they were already exhausted, and they had no power to fight back, but the Qin army's military orders were like mountains, and the Qin soldiers who followed these enemy soldiers could only look at these enemy troops from afar, but they were not allowed to disobey the military orders.

At this time, with a military order, how can you let go of the opportunity to behead and gain merit? Moreover, there are not many enemy troops in the Luoshui camp, plus the escaped Yiqu, Shanyi, Qian, etc., now if others kill one, they will have one less, which makes these Qin soldiers who look at these Qin soldiers who seem to be their own belongings not in a hurry?

As a result, the grassland enemy army, who had just been given a chance to rest, did not think carefully about why the Qin army behind them did not bear fruit for a long time, and they were immediately torn to pieces by the Qin army that was eyeing them around, and the Luoshui camp that shrouded the night suddenly became noisy, screaming again and again, and the corpses were stacked like mountains.

In the early morning, when the daylight of the next day gently swept the waves of Luoshui and shone on the Luoshui camp, the camp that was still majestic and solemn in the daytime yesterday had turned into ruins at this time, and the eyes were full of darkness and miserable. From time to time, corpses were carried out of the camp by the Qin army who were cleaning the battlefield, and discarded in the big pit that had already been dug, and the air was filled with the thick smell of blood that had not been blown away last night, as well as the pungent smell of burning.

"General Qiyu, all the remaining enemy troops in the camp have been taken by our army, and the last general has detained the enemy leaders alone, please ask the general to investigate", a general of the Qin State, wearing a pair of shabby cowhide armor, with a standard long sword in the Qin State Army at his waist, and a brave face, made a statement to Wei Kai and others who were patrolling around.

And Wei Kai, who was leading five or six lieutenants of the Qin State in the army to investigate the battle situation in the army, suddenly stopped when he heard this, especially Wei Kai, who was looking at the Qin General in front of him in a different way.

"Meng Tan, this battle is all thanks to Chen Cangling's strategy, and you are lucky enough to get some combat achievements. Chen Cangling is a genius, how can you have time to check the kittens and puppies you have captured? The military merit officer in the army is responsible for the merits of the war, you still have to check it carefully, don't make false reports and conceal them, otherwise I will punish you for the crime of taking meritorious service", before Wei Kai, who was at the front of the team, could speak, he heard a lieutenant behind him suddenly stand up and scold.

Seeing this, a slightly older general of the Qin State hurriedly went out to ask Wei Kai in front of him for his guilt: "I also hope that my lord Nian Yunli will serve the country, and this time he will also be beheaded, forgive him for the crime of disrespect." As soon as the words fell, several other Qin State captains pleaded for him, Wei Kai smiled slightly when he saw this, and did not answer, but walked up to the Qin General who had just spoken and asked Wei Kai to investigate: "Our army has won a great victory, and others are boasting about their military exploits, why do you care so much about those thieves who have lost their lives in the grasslands?" ”。

As soon as Wei Kai said this, the few Qin army captains who had just tried to intercede for Du Wei Yun were bitter in their hearts. Originally, they thought that Wei Kai, the general in front of them, would definitely punish the junior general who blocked the road just now, and praise and maintain the dignity and humility of the upper and lower levels, which was also the Yun Li of the captain of the Qin army. After all, it has always been the case in the Qin army, whether it is right or wrong, the words of the commander will never be wrong.

But now Wei Kai not only did not say anything to exempt Yun Li from the crime of rudeness just now, but asked the young general just now with interest, wouldn't that show his dislike for what Yun Li did just now? And didn't these people indirectly hate the general in front of him, and when he thought of the rumors he had heard about the young general in front of him before, he suddenly began to panic.

And the faces of the lieutenants of the Qin army around him were uncertain, and they also fell into the eyes of You Jin, who had been silent and watched coldly from the sidelines. As for the predicament of these people in front of him, You Jin could only secretly applaud in his heart. After all, who made it so difficult for them to deliberately ignore their military orders? Of course, this is not to say that there is anything wrong with Youjin, it is entirely due to the fact that these people are thinking about the power of the people behind them, and they deliberately did it.

Speaking of which, I'm afraid it's because of his own general Wei Kai, and I thought in my heart when I looked at Wei Kai, who was talking to the young general of the Qin State just now. After all, if he can hold an important position in the court of the Qin State controlled by the clan, which one would not have anything to do with the clan? Or it is the real children of the world, and the previous contradiction between Wei Kai and the Qin family can be said to be known to the Qin family, so these troops gathered from the local area will eventually be like this, You Jin is actually not surprised at all, but in his heart he still can't help but be angry at them for treating the military ministers as child's play.

"Captain Yundu, don't do this again in the future. The army is humble and humble, and our Qin army generals should lead by example, otherwise how can they lead their troops to fight in the future and convince their corporals? You Jin said to Yun Li in front of him with a smile on his face, but his eyes kept scanning all the Qin State captains in front of him.

"Yes, yes..., we obey the order", the captains of the Qin State, who were tormented by what had just happened, heard You Jin's words at this time, and their faces suddenly became bad, but they could only nod in response. And Yun Li in it could only nod with a flushed face, unable to say a word.

Seeing this, he didn't say anything to continue to mock the people in front of him, and looked back at Wei Kai, who was going to talk to the young general for a long time, so he glanced at these people in front of him: "That's it for today, you should go back to the camp separately, command the army under your command, and wait for the next instruction of the big battalion." General Wei Kai will truthfully report to the monarch for your achievements in this battle, so you don't have to worry."

As soon as he finished speaking, due to the unhappiness just now, the lieutenant of the Qin State in front of him immediately surrendered his hand and said goodbye again and again.

Looking at the captains of the Qin State who seemed to be hiding from the plague god and leaving quickly, You Jin sneered: "Now you have to be honest." As for the Duwei Yunli who was severely humiliated just now, You Jin can only say that the gun shot the first bird, and he can't complain about others.

"The last general thought that although our army had won a great victory in this battle, it was not over yet. Although these are now prisoners of our Qin army, they were also the leaders of one side on the grassland on weekdays, if our army marches into the grassland, it may have a certain miraculous effect if they use these to persuade their respective tribes to surrender", the young general saw Wei Kai come forward to ask, and his heart was suddenly at a loss, so he had to reply hard.

When Wei Kai heard this, he was suddenly surprised in his heart, if he was surprised by the sudden behavior of the person in front of him just now, then now he really has a strong interest in the person in front of him. The Art of War: The king's soldiers, victory without arrogance, defeat without resentment, can take a long-term view, not care about the immediate minute, not only satisfied with the immediate interests, this sounds easy, but often it is difficult to do.

Just like this time, the Qin State defeated the grassland coalition army in Luoshui, and the captured war horses alone were more than 10,000 horses, plus the accompanying food and property, it can be said that they have made a lot of gains, which is a great joy for the Qin people who have just experienced the attack of the Five Kingdoms. As a result, everyone in the Qin army was suddenly full of pride, and arrogance gradually rose, and some people even secretly divided and snatched the spoils of war in private, completely ignoring the military discipline in the army, which Wei Kai could not tolerate.

Not to mention that there are still 40,000 iron cavalry in the Qin army fighting on the front line, even if the enemy of the grassland is completely annihilated in this battle, the Qin army will begin to be arrogant, which is not a good thing for the current Qin State. After all, there is still a threat from the five countries of the Central Plains in the east, and if the whole army is lax and the military discipline is loose because of this, so that the morale of the Qin State that is not easy to gather in the country dissipates, it will suffer a big loss.

This is also why Wei Kai endured his disgust with the Qin army captains in these clan territories, but he also had to take them to investigate everywhere, pretending to be close to each other, just to warn them, even if they have military power in their hands, they have to obey their own orders, and they will do whatever they ask them to do, and if they are safe, they will not take the initiative to trouble them.

"Well, what you said is very reasonable", after a short silence, Wei Kai said to the person in front of him with a smile on his face. Using the power of the people of the grassland to fight against the people of the grassland is exactly what Wei Kai wants, and this is also the reason why Wei Kai is planning to pull the Bairong tribe into the water and betray the king of Yiqu, but this is also caused by the contradictions of the eight countries of the grassland, but the idea of attacking the shield of the son with the spear of the son is basically not wrong.

And after hearing that Wei Kai agreed with his idea, the originally cautious young general of the Qin State in front of him suddenly showed joy on his face, and before Wei Kai could continue to speak, at this time, You Jin in the distance came over and said, "General, these people have been sent away by the last general."

As soon as he heard You Jin's words, Wei Kai, who had a happy look on his face just now, suddenly changed his face slightly, and said coldly: "Hmph...".

When the young general in front of him heard this, he immediately pleaded guilty and said: "This matter is all to blame on the last general."

When Wei Kai heard this, he immediately picked up the person in front of him and said warmly: "Even if there is no you, they will be like this." Besides, with your business today, I can kill their spirits well. But after today, I'm afraid you'll be seen as an enemy by them."
