In the Qin army camp next to Yancheng, several generals asked for troops several times, but Bai Qi besieged Yancheng but did not attack, which made several main generals very anxious, and they went to the camp tent to ask for another attack.

An adjutant general walked out of the camp and said to the generals, "Generals, General Bai said that it is getting late at the moment, and the weather is not suitable for battle today, so the generals should go back early to rest." ”

One of the oldest looking generals stepped forward and said to the lieutenant general, "What is the reason, General Bai's excuse is unreasonable, this battle depends on the weather, has General Bai forgotten that my Qin army has traveled a long distance in order to realize the strategy of attacking Yancheng as soon as possible to relieve the siege of the Ying clan chief, but why did General Bai order us not to wait for the opportunity to fight, why is this?" ”

The adjutant general replied very embarrassedly, "The general disagreed, and the last general thought that the number of people returning from the Chu army was not enough to achieve our set goal, so the general did not order the siege of the city." ”

The general perseveredly continued, "Then please tell the general again, this Yancheng is the capital of Yingdu, the city wall is high and deep, extremely strong, if you don't take advantage of its lack of soldiers at this moment, once the army of Chu retreats back to protect the city, our Qin army is very likely to be surrounded and annihilated by the Chu army inside and outside the city, please think twice." ”

The rest of the generals also hurriedly agreed: "Please think twice, general." ”

The adjutant general understood what the generals were saying, and he thought so, he stomped his feet and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's go talk to the general again." Generals later. ”

After a short time, the adjutant general went and returned, and he regretfully said to the generals, "General Bai ordered that no order should be sent to war, otherwise military law will be engaged." ”

The old man couldn't help but sigh and said to himself, "How is this good, how is it good." ”

The rest of the generals wanted to say something, but the adjutant general waved his hand, and all the generals had no choice but to return in vain when they saw this scene.

After Bai Qijian walked in, he ordered: "You go and find out all the maps you brought before." ”

The deputy general had followed Bai Qi for many years, and couldn't help muttering, "Look, look, look, what is the effect of watching it eight hundred times, it is better to kill before the battle." ”

Bai Qi looked at this map, at this moment he was also very entangled in his heart, the main generals were right, take advantage of the enemy's small number of soldiers to take Yancheng, it is also good to hold on, Sun Tzu's Art of War also used the law of war is ten to encircle it, five to attack it, and to branch it twice.

Bai Qi knew that the purpose of Ying Xuan's battle was not to cede land for compensation, but to destroy the country of Chu, if he could not try his best to eliminate the living force of Chu State, it would be extremely unfavorable to Ying Xuan's war behind, for the sake of today, he must do everything possible to use the temptation of Yancheng to destroy all the Chu troops who were transferred back to the rescue in Yancheng, although these sharp soldiers with his army were brave, but he could not use them, in order not to reveal the inside story, Ying Xuan had secretly transferred thousands of Yingjun clan members to go to the water of the Changgu in the West Mountain outside Yancheng, When the high dam is built, the reservoir holds back the water and pours into Yancheng, the Qin army can take Yancheng without wasting its efforts, and kill the reinforcements of the Chu State, but this matter is highly confidential.

Bai Qi understood that he was only attacking Chu here for a small part, compared to Ying Jun, who risked his head to leave the Qin army camp on the border of Qin and Zhao and led his clansmen to sneak into the West Mountain, compared to Ying Xuan, who was constantly fighting with the Chu army, he looked much quieter here at present, and just thinking of this, the deputy general approached and whispered to Bai Qi, "General, secret letter." ”

Bai Qi opened the secret letter, and the secret letter was concise and clear, "Yes." ”

Bai Qi said to the deputy general: "Beat the drum and gather the general." ”

The adjutant replied happily and loudly, "No." ”

"After many days of interception and accumulation of water in the west mountains of Yancheng, we opened the dam mouth at night, and for a time the river water immediately poured down, and the city water poured into Yancheng from the east city, and the soldiers and civilians of Yancheng of Chu State suffered a catastrophe in their sleep." Ying Jun looked at Ying Xuan and saw that she didn't say anything.

Ying Jun had to continue to introduce, "At dawn, the entire Yancheng has disappeared into a vast ocean, if there is anything else in Yancheng at this moment, it is a corpse floating on the water. Our Qin army did not waste its efforts, and slaughtered nearly 200,000 elites of the Chu State. ”

Ying Xuan pursed the corners of his lips slightly and said, "The anger of the Son of Heaven, millions of corpses, bleeding and drifting." I didn't expect you to have this ability today. ”

Ying Jun said regretfully, "It's a pity that the 200,000 elites of the Chu State did not die on the battlefield, but they were all lost in the water." ”

Ying Xuan said to Ying Jun, "Soldiers, treacherous ways." A general is incompetent, tired of thousands of troops, good and scheming, the fighter on the battlefield is fleeting, there is nothing to pity, you are a general, you should understand. ”

Ying Jun sighed and said, "The last general understands, but at that moment, the last general saw the corpses of the Chu army floating everywhere on the water, and he couldn't bear it, but he didn't expect the power of water to be so great." ”

Ying Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, in ancient times, the floods in the Yellow River Basin were disasters, and the ancestors Boyi helped Dayu to control the water, which is a matter of merit for thousands of years, but today we use the power of water to kill, which is indeed worthy of the ancestors." I don't want to be like this, however, the fighters are related to the country's society, and the country's public weapons can be abolished for personal gain. ”

Yingjun said, "Anyway, after all, this matter hurts the peace and harmony, and I hope the patriarch will do it." ”

Ying Xuan nodded and said, "I'll think about it." ”

Ying Jun continued: "General Bai led my Qin army to be like a bamboo, and approached the capital of Chu and Yingdu, and King Xiang of Chu hurriedly moved the capital to Chen. Now those who remain in Yingdu are all the main battle factions of the Chu State, and the last general estimates that the battle below will be much more difficult. ”

Ying Xuan nodded, "At this moment, the commander of the Chu army opposite me is not an ordinary person, they defend the danger and guard the pass, neither facing the battle, nor retreating to rescue Yingdu, it seems that they are preparing to die here with our army." ”

Yingjun said: "The patriarch thinks it's inappropriate? ”

"Bai Qi led the army to go deep alone, no matter how many cities and passes were snatched, if you can't send troops to guard it, then all the wars are of little significance, if the Chu State dispatches people at this moment, collects people and then forms a large army, I am afraid that they are in danger of destruction at any time."

Ying Jun frowned, looked at the map, and said, "If that's the case, it may be difficult for them to return down the Han River again, and the road back is blocked by the Chu army." ”

"I'm worried about it."

Yingjun said, "Patriarch, it is better for me to write to the King of Qin, so that he will recruit me to come here to help in the war, although Yingjun is not sure of defeating the other party, but Yingjun is willing to be the patriarch's vanguard." ”

Ying Xuan shook his head and said, "No, not only can you not go to the book, but you also have to return to the Qin army camp as soon as possible." ”

Yingjun said: "Could it be that Zhao has different intentions?" ”

Ying Xuan smiled and said, "The alliance of Michi is just an expedient measure, we know each other very well, although our Qin army has won successive battles, but Zhao has been waiting for an opportunity to move, so you must rush back to the Qin and Zhao border as soon as possible and step up military training, in case Zhao State takes advantage of our army to attack Qin when our army has no time to look north." ”

"The last general commands."

Yingdu

The prosperous Yingdu of the past is shrouded in a dark cloud at this moment, the residents left in the city are panicked all day long, I don't know when they will face the destruction of the city, the rich and powerful have already migrated to Chen with the king of Chu, and the rest are just some small people, poor people, for thousands of years, every time there is a war, the first to escape are the nobles, and the people who bear the fire of war are those poor people, at this moment the Qin army has surrounded the capital, but it is still besieged but not attacked, and the residents in the city are even more worried, I was afraid that when I slept that day, I would be killed by the river like the people and soldiers of Yancheng.

Outside the city of Yingdu, inside the tent of the Qin military camp

Bai Qi said to the generals, "What this general said just now is very right, we can also use the water of this river next to Yingdu to flood Yingdu again."

Bai Qi said and looked at everyone's reactions, and then he continued, "Everyone thinks so, or if you have any other ideas, you can say it." ”

Wang Jian took the lead and said, "General, the last general thinks it is impossible." ”

Bai Qi said, "Wang Qian, you are familiar with the geomorphological features here, and tell the generals about it." ”

Wang Jian replied, "No." ”

Wang Jian said, "The last general thinks that it is not suitable for us to attack Yingdu with water this time, and I have three reasons: the first is that this plan has been used in Yancheng before, and the main battle faction in Yingdu has already prepared, and the second is that the terrain built in Yingdu is very high, even if it is attacked with water, the effect is not great, and my Qin people are not good at water, and the third is that our army has killed in Yancheng, which is also the reason why the nobles of Wuyue retreated and did not want to make great efforts, after all, for hundreds of years, the customs of the people of Wuyue and the people of Chu are compatible, and they want to marry and figure it out. There are also many people of Wu Yue in Yancheng, although they are afraid of the prestige of the Qin army, but these remnants of Wu Yue are more out of the heart of finding trouble for the king of Chu, and fighting for their own rights and interests. ”

Bai Qi said to the generals: "What do you think? ”

All the generals have been on the battlefield for a long time, and they deeply thought of what Wang Jian said, and did not refute it silently.

Bai Qi smiled and said, "Today, I summoned all the generals to hope that they can cooperate with my plan to attack Yingdu this time." ”

All the generals said in unison: "The last general listens to the order." ”

"Okay, my plan for this campaign is to encircle Sanque Yi, so that I can avoid the pain of our Qin army attacking the city, and I can completely annihilate the Chu army without barriers in the field."

Wang Jian said, "General, if the Chu army can't defend it, what should we do?" ”

Bai Qi did not answer Wang Qian's questions, and he continued to instruct the generals on the arrangements for the siege of the city, as well as the matter of attacking the Chu army in the field.

After the generals received the order, Bai Qi left Wang Jian behind, and Wang Jian saw that Bai Qi left himself alone, so he must have set it aside.

Bai Qi observed Wang Qian's demeanor, and he couldn't help but secretly say, "No wonder this kid has been entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the patriarch, he is indeed a hard stubble." ”

"Wang Qian"

"The end will be."

"When you ask the Chu army if it can't be defended, what should our army do, right?"

"This, the general has a way."

"How many other Ruishi do you bring?"

"In addition to the dead and wounded in the battle, there are more than 700 people."

"You select a hundred dead soldiers from among them to infiltrate Yingdu with you, and our secret agents in Yingdu will cooperate with you to carry out the purpose of sabotaging and dividing the Chu army."

"Dead soldiers, aren't these people I lead the Qin State Ruishi?"

"What you are leading is the dead soldier who guards the head of the Ying clan, and it is the killer weapon related to the honor and disgrace of the Ying clan."

Wang Jian knelt down and kowtowed in the direction of Qin State, and said, "General Mo will live up to the boss's trust." ”

Bai Qi said, "For half a month, no matter whether you succeed or fail, you can't be reckless." ”

"No"
