"Your Majesty, the front-line military newspaper." A scout entered the temple to take the ceremony.

"How?" Ying Si's expression and tone were quite anxious.

"The front army has less than five days of grain and grass left, and General Sima Cuo asked Wang Shang to levy grain and send it to the front line." That scout reports.

"Asking for food again?" Ying Si was a little angry, "That's 100,000 mouths, 100,000 a day's grain and grass consumption is incalculable, it has been eaten for 100 days, the Qin State has run out of money and food, the treasury has been exposed, why is Sima Cuo unwilling to go to war?" ”

"This ...... Little ones don't know! The scout bowed his head.

Ying Siyi was angry, and he didn't blame a small scout, it was meaningless, but what made him unbelievable was why Sima Cuo, who was deeply valued, was unwilling to send troops to fight a decisive battle in this battle, didn't he know that the Qin State at this moment urgently needed to recuperate with the people, and it was not appropriate to consume the stalemate and should be resolved quickly?

"How long will this continue? Trimester? A year? The state of Qin cannot withstand endless attrition! Saying that, Ying Si immediately looked down at the scout and said, "Pass the widow's order, quickly order Sima Co to fight a decisive battle with the guards, and you must not be delayed!" ”

Zhang Yi, who has returned to Xianyang Palace, is in the hall, seeing this scene, Zhang Zi's face is solemn but he can't speak, obviously, the national strength is the end of the crossbow against the Qin State, and the Qin State, which has been fighting repeatedly, is unable to fight the defense of the country for many years in this gap period.

There was just a big war with the Chu State, Zhang Yi himself did not agree with the war with the Wei State at this time, but Ying Si still couldn't withstand the temptation of the fat meat of Wei Land in the west of the Hexi River, and the situation still had room for maneuver, that is, what Zhang Zi said about reconciling with Chu, but Ying Si couldn't let go of half of the land in Hanzhong before it fell to the point where Chu and Wei Guo came together today.

The current situation is not optimistic.

If there is a chance to regret it, he will definitely adopt Zhang Yi's strategy and exchange half of Hanzhong for this ally of Chu, at least it can ensure that Chu does not help defend and make it fall into the hidden logistical danger brought about by the depth, so that he will not be far away from the border and hostile to be so fearless, after all, he is greedy, it is really a wrong step, a wrong step.

Why was Wei Jun able to generously return all the land occupied by Han Wei to Chu State? This made Ying Si annoyed, why would he make such a low-level mistake as King Chu Huai.

After thinking about it, His Royal Highness Win Si suddenly asked Zhang Yi: "Xiangguo thinks that Sima Cuo can win Gongsun Yan in this battle?" ”

"I don't know, the battle hasn't been fought yet." Zhang Yi replied skillfully.

Ying Si was dumbfounded, but he was grateful in his heart: Sima Wrong, Sima Wrong, you must not let the widow down, this battle Qin State cannot be defeated!

……

In the south of Korea, in the land of Yangshan, the Qin military camp tent.

Sima Cuo, the commander of the Qin army, received an urgent report of 800 miles from Xianyang Palace, and the order of the monarch was to quickly fight a decisive battle with the enemy, and there must be no mistake.

There is no food in the Qin country!

Sima Cuo was like a thunderous initiation, and he suddenly woke up, and at this moment he finally understood the intention of defending the country, and the national strength of the Qin State was powerless due to the repeated wars.

Inside the tent, the generals looked at the commander Sima Cuo in amazement and suddenly slapped himself fiercely.

"General, why is this so?"

"It's my fault, it's my confusion, I don't pay attention to the national conditions, and I'm tired of the three armies!" Sima Cuo was annoyed, attached too much importance to the enemy, and confronted him because he was bent on figuring out the other party's intentions in order to secure victory, but ignored the actual situation under the Qin State.

Sima Cuo saw that the army confronting him was like the rebirth of Wei Zhiwu's soldiers, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off and despise him, and he had to say that Wu Qi and Wei Wu's soldiers hurt Qin too deeply, so that Sima Cuo's caution was too much.

Qin State is not strong, the follow-up is weak, at this moment Sima Cuo knows that he has been in a dilemma, the battle can not ensure the victory, reason told him that at this time the Qin army retreat is the most rational choice, but can not retreat, because of the bad impact, the retreat is bound to make the prestige of the Qin State plummet, after going back, Ying Si will be furious, the removal of the knight is small, even if the head is cut off, the real evil result is that this retreat will hit the invincible heart of the Qin army's soldiers, the Qin army has never had a precedent of retreating without a fight, Sima Cuo also has arrogance.

After thinking about it, Sima Cuo suddenly got up, and the generals looked at the commander's crazy gaze, and they all held their breath and stared without saying a word.

Looking at the generals, he was silent for a moment, and said, "How much food and grass is left for the army?" ”

"Less than three days' rations." A general came out to report.

"Herald!" Sima Cuo stood motionless.

"The last general!"

"Pass my order, only leave a full meal, and burn all the rest of the grain and grass hoarded in Bears Ears Mountain for me!" Sima Cuo said frantically.

"General, why do you want to burn grain?" When the generals heard this, their faces all changed drastically.

Sima Cuo, whose eyes were shining, licked his dry lips, swallowed his saliva, and said: "Bear's Ears Mountain is only fifty miles away, once the war starts, it will become the enemy's target, I don't burn it, the rhinoceros will also send his cavalry to burn, the enemy has 30,000 Hu people iron cavalry, if the rangers rush to the Bears Ears Mountain, even if our main army divides the troops to help, it will not be able to catch up at all, too late, unless it is heavily guarded in the Bears Ears Mountain, at least 30,000 defenders can have nothing to fear, but in this way, the main force will be insufficient before the battle, If I am the head of a rhino, I will join forces with an army of 100,000 to attack and crush from the front. ”

Speaking of this, Sima said with a mutter: "These days, I have watched the soldiers of the country, and the fighters of the defense are not weaker than my Great Qin Ruishi, and the stationing of 30,000 soldiers in Bear's Ears Mountain is tantamount to self-destruction, and will be broken by the rhino head one by one." ”

Sima Cuo's face showed a categorical expression, and the generals only heard his words: "Rather than taking care of one and losing the other, it is better to take care of the end than to settle the situation in a war, I want to personally burn the food of my own army, that is, to tell all the Qin people, this battle is only one battle, only death is not a whirlwind, put it to death and then live, fall into the place of death and then survive-!" ”

Inside the tent, there was silence as Sima Cuo's voice fell, and after a while, all the Qin generals bowed their hands in unison: "I am willing to follow the general and swear to fight to the death-!" ”

"Good! Tell the three armies, eat and drink enough, and fight to the death! Whether Qin Zhirui can fight Wei Zhi's warriors or not, it depends on this battle! Sima Cuo was excited, and said excitedly: "Great Qin Wannian-!" ”

"Great Qin Wannian-!"

Sima Cuo regarded the army of the defense as the reborn soldiers of Wei Wushu, and wanted this battle to decide the male and female.

……

Bears Ears Mountain.

A guard spy kept an eye on the movement of this place, and at this moment, dust and smoke suddenly rose from the sky, and the scout looked at it from the direction of Xiong Ershan.

He rubbed his eyes and thought that he had seen it wrong, that was not the place where the Qin army hoarded grain? The Qin people burned the grain with a fire themselves?

Soon it was clear that the 3,000 defenders guarding Bear's Ears Mountain had all come out, but not only were they no longer stationed here, but they also did not see this army fainting out with food, which was enough to conclude that the Qin people had burned their own grain.

The Weiguo scouts, who were hiding in the grass and secretly observing, watched without saying a word as the three thousand Qin troops converged with the army, and the faces of these Qin people were all as if they were at home.

The scout immediately retreated quietly, away from this Qin army, and rode away, sending the news back to the guard camp as quickly as possible.

On the other side, the Patriotic Army is in a large camp.

At this moment, Wei Zheng and Gongsun Yan were relatively relaxed, and the rhino head said: "This battle and Qin consume each other's national strength, and Qin is not supported, so it is bound to seek war. When the enemy's morale is lost, the counterattack will be invincible. ”

Wei Zheng said with a smile: "Intercepting one stone of grain and grass from the enemy is better than transporting twenty stones of grain and grass, if there is a war, our army can send cavalry to divide troops and ride a Qin army grain that burns Bear's Ears Mountain, which will definitely make the Qin army unstable." ”

"Newspaper—"

Wei Zheng and Gongsun Yan both set their eyes on the scout who came to report, "Your Excellency Qiyu, General, the Qin army burned the grain and grass in Bears Ears Mountain with a fire!" The 3,000 Qin troops stationed at Bear's Ears Mountain had already evacuated back to their camps. ”

"Is that true?" Wei Zheng, who was originally relaxed, heard the report, and his face changed slightly.

"It's true, dare to swear with your head!" The scout must have said.

Wei Zheng waved his hand without saying a word, and after being shocked, he restrained his expression and sat down again. Gongsun Yan said quite solemnly: "Your Majesty, Sima Cuo's move is unexpected, it seems that he wants to fight to the death with me, self-immolation of grain and grass, and a battle with me to the death, the Qin army is afraid that it is like the sky, a bloody battle is inevitable, the enemy army is in full swing, do not rush to fight, our army should avoid its edge!" ”

"It is worthy of being a generation of famous generals who set the cornerstone of hegemony for the Qin State, with a solemn and steady attitude, and his courage is even more amazing-!" Wei Zheng muttered to himself, couldn't help but admire, and after a while, he faced Gongsun Yan: "Sima Coo burned grain to boost morale, he knew that retiring troops was the best strategy to preserve the national strength of the Qin State, but he still fought to the death, why?" For the sake of the invincible heart of the Qin State that never gives up, if the Qin army retreats, the fearless Qin Sword will be eclipsed, and Sima Cuo has to fight to the death. ”

Wei Zheng stared at the rhino head, and said quietly: "The strength of the two armies of Wei and Qin is not equal, and the soldiers of our army are not afraid of a battle with Qin, if I avoid its edge, I will plant a seed in the hearts of my soldiers who defend the country and are as afraid of Qin as the other countries, and the future will be endless!" ”

"In this battle, the Qin State cannot retreat, and the Wei State cannot retreat. The widow does not want to plant a seed of fear of Qin in the hearts of the soldiers who defend the country, but to solidify a fearless heart, that is, the brave Qin army that everyone in the countries fears, but our army is not afraid of Qin. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Zheng looked at Gongsun Yan with a smile and said: "The widow promised before that he could not speak vainly and be handsome, but now that the widow has to do this, I hope the rhino head will understand." ”

"How dare Weichen!" Gongsun Yan hurriedly bowed his hand, and couldn't help sighing: "What Yan cares about and sees is the current victory or defeat, the king's vision is no longer to look at a war, let alone a war, no matter whether this battle is won or lost, my soldiers will forge a fearless heart." Minister, willing to fight to the death! ”

Wei Zheng's eyes burst out with a brilliant light: "Yangshan Ru waterway is far and narrow, Wei and Qin, both far away from the border and meet in this wilderness, for example, two rats fighting in the hole, the two armies face each other, meet on a narrow road, and the brave will win!" ”

"When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins-!" The rhinoceros muttered to himself, savoring the words carefully, and suddenly his heart was lifted.

When this is the case, the two armies face each other and meet on a narrow road...... The brave wins!
