On April 13, the sky was sunny and cloudy.

At dawn, according to Meng Zhong's arrangement, Le Yi and Liang Xi, the military commander of the Hedong Army, led 5,000 Wei soldiers to the Han army camp to fulfill the agreement with the storm kite and take over the Han army camp.

After completing the handover with the Han army, the Han military camp, which was established in the south of Yique Mountain, will become the current main camp of the Wei army.

Since it is the main camp, it should have been guarded by heavy troops, after all, if this camp was attacked by the Qin army again, then the Wei army would be completely finished, and it would even drag down the Korean army, so Meng Zhong originally planned to divide 20,000 people to garrison it, and pull all the troops under the command of Liang Xi, Zheng Zheng, and Cai Wu to that military camp, only with Dou Xing, Wei Qing, and Fei Hui, as well as Tang Zhi and Jiao Ge in the Luoshui area, a total of nearly 60,000 Wei troops were responsible for the important task of pursuing the Qin army, but the reaction of the Qin army, But Meng Zhong had to give up his original plan.

The Qin army refused to evacuate, and all signs indicated that they decided to confront the Wei army again, and in the spirit of striking first, Meng Zhong tried to launch a fierce attack on the Qin army on April 13.

Some people may wonder how to attack the Qin army defending the camp because the Wei army has no time to build long ladders, rushing cars and other attacking equipment?

In fact, this time the Wei army did not need these equipment.

The reason is very simple, because the Qin army will definitely go out of the camp to fight, as long as they have the intention of confronting the Wei army head-on, otherwise, if they are blocked by the Wei army and do not dare to attack like the previous time, it will inevitably have a great negative impression on the morale of the Qin soldiers.

To put it bluntly, if the Qin army retreats today, it will naturally not have enough morale to confront the Wei army head-on.

In view of the fact that it is very likely to turn into a decisive battle between the two armies of Qin and Wei today, even if it is Meng Zhong, he can't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, so that on the way to the Qin camp, he stiffened his face and thought about the morale-boosting speech later.

At three o'clock, Meng Zhong took Dou Xing, Wei Qing, Fei Hui, Zheng Zheng, Cai Wu and other military horses, led more than 60,000 Wei troops, and came to a place about four or five miles away from the Qin camp.

There were patrols and soldiers of the Qin army in the vicinity, and these people immediately returned to the camp to report after seeing the huge Wei army, and Meng Zhong did not bother to send people to pursue them, so he ordered the Wei army to stand in place in order to make a final encouragement.

“…… Look ahead, my soldiers of the Wei Kingdom! ”

Asked the clan brother Meng Ao to drive the chariot and stop in front of the array of his own army, Meng Zhong pointed to the camp in the distance, and said in a high voice: "That was originally the main camp of our army. …… Two days ago, on the 11th day of April, the Qin people attacked the main camp and defeated us with far less strength than our army, bringing me 180,000 Wei soldiers to a bitter humiliation, forcing us to abandon the camp and flee into Yique Mountain. …… Xi Wu has been humiliated and killed by the Qin army, and those hateful Qin people are still trying to drive us to death. …… Greed, this is the nature of the Qin people! Since Zhang Yi became the prime minister of Qin, my Wei State has become the most targeted country of Qin State, and the Qin people have done everything to weaken Wei State, why? Because they are afraid! Fear my Wei country! Because my Wei State was once the most powerful country under this sky, and the soldiers of my Wei State were the most courageous soldiers under this sky! If the Wei State could not be weakened, the Qin people would not be able to sleep and eat. …… Xi Wu, he was careless, he didn't expect the Qin people to be so scheming, so that the Qin people succeeded in their sneak attack that night, causing more than half of my 180,000 Wei soldiers to lose...... I think that after that night, the Qin people were probably snickering, maybe they thought that this battle was already won, and we waited for these remnants to be defeated, and it was no longer enough to pose any threat to them. …… They underestimate the soldiers of our Wei State too much, in the past, Wu Qi, a famous general of our Wei State, was able to defeat the 500,000 Qin army with 50,000 soldiers, but now, our army still has a total of 80,000 or 90,000 soldiers, of which there are still nearly 50,000 soldiers, how can they tolerate the Qin people on the other side to look at us with the eyes of the vanquished? If we defeat our army with dignity, I will obey it, just like the night attack two days ago...... Do you swallow this breath? ”

"I can't swallow it!"

Under the roar of Dou Xing, Wei Qing, Fei Hui and other military horses, the emotions of the Wei soldiers were quickly mobilized.

"Yes, I can't swallow this breath of anything."

Clenching his fists and waving it, Meng Zhong glanced at the Wei pawn in front of him who seemed to be an ocean, and shouted loudly: "Then today, let Qin Jun see the bravery of my Wei man!" I hereby make a bold prediction that within three days, our army will definitely defeat the Qin army, defeat those Qin people in the way of our Wei army, avenge the soldiers who were unfortunately killed by the Qin people that night, and announce to the world with a great victory that our Wei army is still the invincible army of the year! No one can stop the advance of our army! No one! ”

“…… No one! ”

Waves of sound resounded in the array of tens of thousands of Wei soldiers, one after another.

Seeing that the emotions of the Wei soldiers under his command were almost mobilized, Meng Zhong waved his hand and pointed to the Qin camp in the distance, and shouted in a deep voice: "The whole army listens to the order and moves forward slowly." …… There is no need to be anxious, because the victory of this battle belongs to us after all! …… Wei Jun, victory! ”

"Victory!"

"Victory!"

More than 60,000 people held up the weapons in their hands, and their emotions gradually rose.

At the same time, in the Qin camp in the north of Yique Mountain, Bai Qi had already learned the news of the Wei army's move from the patrol soldiers who came to report the news, and couldn't help frowning.

As Meng Zhong guessed, Bai Qi was indeed not ready to evacuate - in fact, strictly speaking, it was not that he did not want to retreat, but that he knew that the Wei army would never let them go easily.

Otherwise, what did the Wei army do to garrison Yishui first? What do you do when you build a dam on the eastern side of Ique Mountain? Is this to prevent him from evacuating the Qin army from Dongdu Yishui to Xiangshan?

The withdrawal of the army will inevitably be seized by the Wei army to launch a wave of pursuit, knowing this, Bai Qi decided to confront the Wei army head-on.

After all, his Qin army is not without a chance of winning.

Anyway, the army under his command also broke through the strong army of more than 200,000 allied forces of Wei and Han in one night, and was defeated by the Wei army yesterday, it was only because the Wei army caught him after the Qin army was weak and weak.

It was with this idea that Bai Qi ordered all the soldiers to rest and recuperate after the Wei army retreated yesterday, and after two days of rest, he would launch a general attack on the Wei army in the area of Yique Mountain - no way, after all, the Qin army came from a long distance, and their military rations were not sufficient, so they must defeat the Wei army as soon as possible, otherwise they will fall into passivity.

I remember that after making this decision, Bai Qi was most worried about the endless harassment and attack of the Wei army.

No, his premonition came true, the Wei army on the opposite side didn't give them a chance to breathe at all, obviously they had just recovered some morale through a lucky victory yesterday, and today the Wei army poured into the nest and gathered fifty or sixty thousand people to attack again, which obviously didn't want the Qin soldiers under his command to completely recover their overdrawn physical strength.

In this regard, Bai Qi could only helplessly say that the Wei army on the opposite side had a very vicious vision.

"Bai Shuai, what should I do?"

The general Ji Hong, who heard the news, asked Bai Qidao.

Bai Qi was silent for a moment when he heard this.

According to his original intention, he did not want a war with the Wei army today, after all, according to his understanding, the non-commissioned officers in his army had not fully recovered - after all, such a thing as overdrawing physical strength is not at all a matter of resting for half a day or a day to completely recover, just like a person who can only run ten miles on weekdays, and you suddenly ask him to run thirty miles in one breath, then even if this person has slept once, he will still feel muscle soreness when he wakes up the next day.

This is the case with the non-commissioned officers in his army at the moment.

Physical strength and energy, after yesterday afternoon and evening rest has gradually recovered, but there is a general sore hands and feet, serious soldiers, even the weapon is unstable, someone casually patted the arm may not even the weapon in the hand will fall, in this state, how to fight to the death with the Wei army?

"It would be nice if Wei Jun came back tomorrow......"

Bai Qi said sadly.

He guessed that it might be his move to order the construction of additional camps that made the Wei army on the opposite side guess something.

But for this matter, Bai Qi has nothing to do, after all, what his Qin army occupies, is only a southern battalion that used to be the main camp of the Wei army, except for the strong defense ability in the south, the rest of the west, east, and north sides, there is only a ruin, and there are almost no defense facilities, as a general who is good at sneak attacks, of course Bai Qi can't keep this kind of flaw - what if the Wei army also conducts a night attack on them?

It was for this reason that even Bai Qi had expected in advance that the additional defenses would expose the next strategic direction of his Qin army, but he still ordered the soldiers to simply build some defenses.

"If you really can't do it, why don't you stay in camp for the time being?"

Seeing Bai Qi's hesitant expression, Ji Hong suggested on the side.

Hearing this, Bai Qi shook his head, frowned and pondered: "Gongsun Xi is dead, and the person who is now commanding the Wei army, I don't know if it is the person I think it is...... No, most of that kind of accurate eyesight is him! This man is quite cunning and witty, and he knows that our army is now tired, so he has taken the initiative to attack again and again...... Take today as an example, even if our army can't defend it, he will still order an attack, and it is a big deal to attack the west, east, and north sides where the defense is relatively weak. ”

Speaking of this, he let out a long breath, frowned and said: "Today, the Wei army is killed, we can't defend it, and the Wei army is blocking the camp gate to attack; Tomorrow the Wei army will come again, and we will not be able to defend it again, and we will be attacked by the Wei army blocking the camp gate again. With this coming and going, how can our army still have any morale to speak of? …… Once the morale is lost, there is no chance to redeem the disadvantage! ”

"......" Ji Hong nodded silently, he also felt that Bai Qi's point of view was correct.

"Let's fight!"

He let out a long breath and said in a deep voice: "I hope I can be on an equal footing with the Wei army today...... If you unfortunately lose, you will shirk the vile and shameless Wei army, and take the opportunity to attack when our army's vitality has not yet recovered, and the morale of the army should not have much impact, after all, how can we say that it is also the victorious division that defeated the Wei and Han coalition forces of more than 200,000 in one night, and the confidence of the soldiers is still very sufficient, and a small defeat is nothing. ”

"Bai Qi is very thoughtful."

Ji Hong praised Bai Qi a little, but it is undeniable that Bai Qi's point of view is undoubtedly correct.

In the current situation, if you can't defend it, it is tantamount to acquiescing in the matter of "not being able to defeat the opposing Wei army", which is the most traumatic to the morale of the army, far worse than the thousands of Qin soldiers who died in battle.

Considering this problem, Bai Qi immediately ordered the army to take the initiative.

Having said that, in fact, in the end, only 30,000 Qin soldiers were sent outside the camp, and they were next to the camp to set up a formation, saying that this was an initiative to attack to be honest, it was really a bit reluctant, but no matter what, the Qin army at least walked out of the camp, and invisibly let the Qin soldiers in the camp understand: We are not afraid of the Wei army!

Having said that, as for the casualties of these 30,000 Qin soldiers after today's fighting, even if it is white, it is difficult to take care of it.

"Stomble—"

"Stomble—"

With the trembling of the ground under his feet, more than 60,000 Wei soldiers in the distance slowly came, gradually closing the distance to the array of 30,000 Qin troops outside the camp.

"Huh? Still going on?'

At the open camp gate, Bai Qi stood on a chariot and looked at the Wei army in the distance, frowning when he looked at it.

Generally, when two armies clash with each other, the two armies will reserve at least two miles of space to prevent emergencies - you must know that once the distance is too close, the soldiers on both sides are likely to break out in advance of the general attack, which is not a good thing for the generals of the two armies, after all, if the distance is too close, once something happens on the battlefield, it is difficult for the commander to react immediately and make countermeasures in time.

A moment later, under Bai Qi's frowning gaze, the Wei army halted its advance when it was only a mile away from the 30,000 Qin army.

At this time, looking at the Wei army from Bai Qi's perspective, it was as if the line of sight was overwhelming with Wei troops, even if it was as proud as Bai Qi, it was inevitable that he was a little nervous at this moment, and subconsciously clenched the railing on the chariot.

"I see...... Relying on the large number of people, they deliberately put pressure on our army.

Bai Qi snorted coldly with seemingly disdain, but in fact he was very jealous, and muttered softly: "Very confident......"

At the same time, it seems that Dou Xing, Wei Qing, Fei Hui and other military Simas are also muttering to themselves.

As for muttering something, it was naturally muttering that his own array was too far forward, and it was about to collide with the Qin army outside the camp opposite.

At this time, Meng Zhong stood on a chariot and slowly came to the front of the array.

Seeing this, Dou Xing, as a pioneer general, immediately ordered his soldiers to drive the carriage and stop in parallel with Meng Zhong.

"Master Meng, our army's array is too high, right?" He couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, Meng Zhong replied with a light smile: "Isn't it good? Later, when Dou Sima slaughtered the Qin pawn opposite, he could also run two steps less. ”

"Hahahaha."

Dou Xing was amused by Meng Zhong's words and couldn't help laughing.

At this time, Meng Zhong explained in a low voice: "I just took the opportunity to put pressure on the Qin army on the opposite side......"

"I understand."

Dou Xing nodded, and then looked at Meng Zhong and stopped.

It doesn't matter to him whether he is close or far from the Qin army, after all, he is the commander of the former army, and he is destined to be the first to fight with the Qin army on the opposite side, he is just worried about Meng Zhong, afraid that the two armies will be too close to each other, and Meng Zhong will not be able to respond to the change of the situation on the battlefield in time.

As if seeing Dou Xing's concerns, Meng Zhong said sincerely: "Please Dou Sima must be trusted." ”

Dou Xing stared at Meng Zhong for a while, and suddenly smiled heartily: "That's nature!" …… relied on Master Meng as the backing. ”

"Dou Sima rest assured."

After a brief chat, Dou Xing glanced at the Qin army opposite, licked his lips and said, "It seems that the Qin army doesn't plan to attack, so I'll attack first!" …… Master Meng, do you have anything else to tell the soldiers? ”

Hearing this, Meng Zhong glanced back at the more than 60,000 Wei soldiers behind him.

Although on the way here, he had already done some encouragement and mobilized the mood and morale of the Wei soldiers, but to be honest, Meng Zhong himself was not sure how much effect it would have.

According to his suspicion, there may have been a number of soldiers who still did not have much confidence in the battle, or more simply, in the fact that he was in command of the battle.

『…… Do you have confidence in me?'

Thinking of this, Meng Zhong suddenly had an idea, and said loudly to Wei Pawn behind him: "The Qin pawn on the opposite side is far from being the opponent of our army, in my opinion, as long as you can exert your due strength, it is enough to defeat it in half a day!" …… In order to motivate you, if our army can defeat the Qin army in half a day today, I will ask the commander to give a credit to all the soldiers, remember, only half a day! When the day is in the middle of the day, I will give the order to stop the fighting for today. ”

『……』

Dou Xing looked at Meng Zhong in astonishment.

At this moment, he really didn't understand what Meng Zhong was doing.

You must know that it is already around the hour at this time, and there are only two hours left before noon, and the Qin army will be defeated in two hours? Are you Meng Zhong really the Qin army on the other side of the party muddy? Even if you're sure, you won't swell to this point, right?

At the same time, Bai Qi and the Qin soldiers outside the camp also heard Meng Zhong's words from a distance, and they gritted their teeth in anger.

Especially Bai Qi, I saw him staring at Meng Zhong's figure intently, and secretly sneered in his heart: Defeat our army in half a day? How arrogant! I'll see how you can crush my army in half a day!

"Dou Sima?"

Of course, Meng Zhong could feel countless glances full of confusion, appreciation, indignation, or hostility, but he didn't care at all, and turned around to signal Dou Xing.

At this moment, the calm smile on his face made Dou Xing slightly stunned, and he immediately understood: this kid must have some idea.

But this has nothing to do with him, he Dou Xing just needs to focus on killing more Qin pawns.

『…… For the sake of the warriors, for the sake of the dead soldiers......

Pulling out the sword at his waist and holding it vertically in front of him, Dou Xing closed his eyes and said silently, and in an instant, he opened his eyes again, raised his sword and pointed straight ahead, and shouted in a deep voice: "Attack!" ”

"Oh, oh, oh-"

The three phalanxes of the front army, a full 30,000 Wei soldiers shouted in unison, holding weapons and rushing towards the Qin army opposite, like a tide.

Seeing this, Ji Hong, a general on the Qin army's side, immediately shouted loudly: "Fight!" ”

Under the orders of the generals, the 30,000 Qin troops, who were also in three phalanxes, immediately raised their weapons in their hands, and the next breath, the Wei army, which was like a tide, rushed in front of them like angry waves, and slapped on the rock of the 30,000 Qin army.

"Kill ——!"

The two armies of Qin and Wei broke out with a tacit understanding, and a cry that resounded through the heavens and the earth.

In the sky, a cloud obscured the sun, and below, more than 60,000 soldiers of the Qin and Wei armies roared like wild beasts, using the sharp weapons in their hands as minions, and launched a bloody and cruel battle.

For a time, the swords and swords flew, there were stumps and broken arms and red blood everywhere, and more than 60,000 bloody men were fighting and fighting with each other, and the scene was fierce, as if even the heavens and the earth had lost their color.

"Kill!"

One Wei pawn killed a Qin pawn and was then killed by another Qin pawn.

One Qin pawn killed a Wei pawn, and was immediately killed by another Wei pawn.

The soldiers on both sides who rushed to the center of the battlefield may only survive for a few breaths.

"Shoot the arrows!"

In the camp of the Qin army, a wave of arrows suddenly shot out, enveloping the Wei and Qin soldiers who were fighting outside the camp, causing casualties among the soldiers on both sides.

Meng Zhong looked up at the arrows in mid-air, and didn't care, because he knew that the Qin army had neither enough bows nor crossbows, and the so-called arrow attacks were better than nothing.

Just like the Wei army, at this moment, there are also about 2,000 crossbowmen shooting at the array of the Qin army and the camp of the Qin army, but Bai Qi, the commander of the Qin army, does not care about this.

Because they both know that the opponent's crossbowmen can't last long, and the key to this battle is still the foot soldiers.

"Order Wei Qing and Fei Hui to attack!"

Seeing that there had been an exchange of fire on the frontal battlefield, Meng Zhong immediately sent someone to give orders to Wei Qing and Fei Hui.

After receiving the order, Wei Qing and Fei Hui respectively led their respective armies to attack the two ruins of Xiying and Dongying respectively, trying to break through these two places and launch a three-sided attack on the Qin camp.

However, because Bai Qi had built a lot of simple defensive facilities on the ruins of Xiying and Dongying, and deployed troops in advance, Wei Qing and Fei Hui could not break through the Qin army's resistance in a short time.

And in the next melee, Meng Zhong, the commander, actually couldn't help much, the only thing he could do was to keep an eye on his own soldiers who were fighting on the battlefield, and send reinforcements in time when his side gradually fell into disadvantage due to casualties, and that's it.

Although he intended to leave the armies of Zheng Zheng and Cai Wu to prevent the Qin army from ambushing them and killing them by surprise, it turned out that the Qin army did not mean this.

The time of two hours passed quietly soon when the soldiers of Qin and Wei paid many casualties one after another.

The commander of the Qin army, Bai Qi, glanced up at the sun in the sky, and then looked at the frontal battlefield, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a few mocking smiles.

It is undeniable that the Wei army's offensive is really fierce, and it has faintly suppressed his Qin army from beginning to end, but as time passed, Bai Qi clearly felt that the Wei army's offensive had begun to gradually weaken.

"Hmph, what did you say to break our army in half a day, but you didn't even break into the camp, you really know how to talk big......

Bai Qi secretly laughed to himself.

At this time, Meng Zhong had already discovered the gradually weakening offensive of his Wei army, and sighed helplessly in his heart.

"Those Qin soldiers have overdrawn their physical strength, and it should be difficult to recover in just one day. But even so, it still blocked the offensive of our army, which is really not to be underestimated......

He shook his head silently.

Although he had previously said big things such as "the Qin army is vulnerable" and "the Qin army will be defeated within half a day", to be honest, he only used these words to encourage the morale of the army, and he himself did not take it seriously at all.

But even so, Qin Jun's tenacity exceeded his predictions.

"Mingjin."

Suddenly, he calmly commanded Wei Shu beside him.

Wei pawns on the left and right were stunned for a moment, looked at the battlefield ahead where they still had the upper hand, and then looked up at the sky, with an incomprehensible look on their faces.

"Master Meng, you ...... What did you just say? ”

"Mingjin, collect the troops."

Meng Zhong repeated indifferently.
