"Guys, what should I do?" After a long time, King Bo Rong asked the ministers.

"Great King, since the Qin army has defeated Wu Shirong's attack, this means that we have no reinforcements, and I am afraid it will be difficult to besiege it." The right valley Li Wang said.

Things have come to this point where withdrawal may be the last option.

"King, the matter has not yet reached the final point, even if we want to withdraw our troops, we should compete with the Qin people before leaving, otherwise even if we return to Longxi, we will be ridiculed by other tribes for not having the courage to do so." General Zuo got up and said.

"Yes, we can't just withdraw our troops, or we will be ridiculed as cowards." Someone followed, "At least we should know this invincible Qin people and know what they look like!" ”

"Well---, this king knows." Then the king of Bo Rong said to General Zuo: "Immediately withdraw your troops and go to the mountains south of Chengyi to surround the Qin army for this king." King Bo Rong ordered to General Zuo.

"No---" General Zuo replied loudly.

After General Zuo left, King Bo Rong said to King Zuo Xian: "This king will lead his troops to meet the Qin people, and King Zuo Xian, you will immediately lead your own soldiers to escort the grain and grass to Longshan." The king will then come with a great army. ”

"So, the king doesn't want to fight to the death with the Qin people?" From King Bo Rong's words, King Zuo Xian heard the intention of preparing to withdraw his troops from Cheng State, otherwise why would the king let himself withdraw with grain and grass?

"We don't have much hatred between Bo Rong and the Qin people, so why do we want to burden ourselves for no reason? This king just met with this Qin man named Yingkang before leaving, and saw what he looked like, and he was able to make Longxi Rongdi suffer blows again and again. By the way, I also talked to the Qin people about the conditions. King Bo Rong said to King Zuoxian.

Talk about the conditions?

After hearing this, King Zuo Xian asked, "What conditions does the king want to negotiate with the Qin people?" ”

"You said that after this Feng Rong withdrew from Longshan, there was no longer Rong Di's tribe on the entire Longshan, can we take the opportunity to occupy Longshan for my use?" King Bo Rong asked King Zuo Xian.

King Bo Rong intends to occupy Longshan?

"Does the king feel that since we can't take Cheng Guo, we want to take a step back and occupy Longshan?"

"Yes, that's what this king wants. You see that we have spent so much effort, and still haven't taken down Cheng Guo, it seems that the idea of wanting to spend the winter around Guanzhong this year is about to die, but hundreds of soldiers have died under this Cheng Yi for this, if we don't get something, isn't it a little unreasonable? King Bo Rong said to King Zuoxian.

"The king wants to retreat to the second, since he can't spend the winter near Guanzhong, so he came up with the idea of going to Longshan to spend the winter?"

"Yes, this king has this intention, since their Qin people have cut off our road to Guanzhong in the south, then we will directly propose to them the idea of entering Longshan, do you think the Qin people can agree?" King Bo Rong asked King Zuo Xian.

King Zuo Xian shook his head, "It's hard to say, it depends on what the Qin people mean." ”

"Okay, since you can't say it clearly, then King Ben will personally meet with the leader of the Qin people to see what he means. As the ministers said, it is indeed unreasonable for us to withdraw directly to Longxi without getting anything. King Bo Rong said.

"Okay, the minister wishes the king a good harvest, and the minister will bring grain and grass to the camp in Longxi." Zuo Xianwang said.

"Okay, this king will return later." After that, the king of Bo Rong walked out of the camp and led more than 7,000 Bo Rong soldiers towards the mountain where the Qin people were located.

Qin army camp.

After defeating Wushi Rong's attack, the Qin army did not withdraw from here. The reason why he was reluctant to evacuate from here was that Yingkang had long realized that the undulating mountains here were a good place for the brigade to hide and ambush.

Once the Qin army left here and went under the capital of Cheng State, they would lose the protection of the mountains and enter an open area with no shelter on all sides. This was not a good thing for the Qin army, which did not have an advantage in numbers.

"Doctor, we have defeated the attack of Wushi Rong, we should lead the army to Chengyi and attack people directly." Seeing that Yingkang was slow to order the army to go to Chengyi, Sima Boyu suggested.

Ying Kang shook his head and said confidently: "Don't worry, I guess it won't take a day for Bo Rong to come to us." ”

"What, Bo Rong will come to us? Are they here to fight us? Zhao Boyu was anxious when he heard this.

"I can't tell if I'm coming to war with us or negotiating with us, everything is unknown." As for what Bo Rong is going to do, Yingkang at this time is still unclear.

"Since Bo Rong will come to us by himself, what should our army do now?" Since Bo Rong would come to find him in person, there was no need for Qin Jun to go to Chengyi.

"Two ideas, one is to order the army to continue to wait here, ready for battle at any time; Another aspect is to send scouts close to the mountain pass to find a place conducive to an ambush. If Bo Rong is unwilling to evacuate Cheng Guo, we will have to fight them. Ying Kang explained to Zhao Boyu.

"Understood, I'll send scouts to check the perimeter and look for a place conducive to fighting." Zhao Boyuan replied.

Not long after the scouts were dispatched, they saw two scouts galloping back, "Doctor, Sima, the Bo Rong army is coming this way. The scout shouted as he ran.

"What? The Bo Rong army is coming? Sima Boyu asked.

"Yes, the Bo Rong army wants to come here." The scout got closer and closer, and said to Zhao Boyu in a loud voice, "There are at least seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses, and they are coming towards our army." ”

Seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses are coming here?

This is not a small number, which shows that Bo Rong brought all the soldiers and horses over to deal with the Qin army.

"These people who don't know whether they are alive or dead have really brought troops to fight us." When Zhao Boyu heard this, he immediately said to the soldiers of the Qin army behind him: "All the soldiers are ready for battle, once the enemy enters our shooting range, just shoot me, the more you shoot, the better." ”

When Ying Kang heard this, he immediately said to Zhao Boyu: "Don't rush to shoot the enemy first, wait until we figure out the situation." ”

"What kind of medicine is there to figure out this, people have already come with a large army, so it must be a decisive battle with us, otherwise it is necessary to bring so many soldiers and horses?" Zhao Boyu replied.

"No, until you find out the true movements of Bo Rong, it's better not to take the initiative to attack. I don't want to make too many enemies. Ying Kang said to Zhao Boyu in an undoubted tone.

"Okay---, listen to you." Zhao Boyu said helplessly to the soldiers, "The doctor has an order, make all preparations for battle, and wait for my order." ”

"Nuo ---," the Qin army soldier behind him replied.

It's like saying, I order you to shoot, you shoot again, and if we don't have an order, you'd better not act rashly.
