Gongsun Yan and the others walked along the mountain road for less than twenty miles, and the surroundings had become dark. The air was damp and the sky was particularly dark. At this time, Ying Ying saw a cadre of people coming in the distance, and when he got closer, he saw that it was the Mo family led by Gao Sheng.

Gongsun Yan asked Gao Sheng about the pursuit, and Gao Sheng gave a brief report. It turned out that they chased forward along the path until they reached a large town, but when they got there, they found that the footprints were mixed, and there were many forks in the road, and they did not know which direction to go, so in desperation, they had to turn back and meet Gongsun Yan.

Gongsun Yan was a little unhappy in his heart, secretly blaming Gao Sheng for not being able to chase after him, and it was inconvenient to say it clearly. Gao Sheng is a secret envoy sent by the monarch, and he is a general of the Qin army, belonging to two different grades, so he can't control Gao Sheng.

However, the depression in Gongsun Yan's heart was difficult to eliminate for a while. This time, he was on a combat mission in Quwo, more than 200 miles away, when he received a message from Gao Sheng's flying pigeon, and urgently led his men to rush to support.

Along the way, disguised as a farmer and a merchant, he secretly marched day and night, and he thought that by quietly attacking him, he would be able to capture Mr. Oniya alive and make a miraculous achievement. didn't want to be hit by the plan repeatedly, and fell into a chicken and egg beating.

Gao Sheng saw the captured Su Qin, he was not angry, he came out this time, bad luck again and again, first his daughter was injured, and he had to arrange for his disciples to be sent back to Qin for treatment.

If you are ruined by these people in your own life, you can not be full of anger and hatred! He pulled out his sword, didn't say a word, and stabbed straight at Su Qin's chest.

Su Qin's body was tied up, and he couldn't dodge, thinking: "My life is at rest." He simply closed his eyes and let Gao Sheng dispose of it.

Just at the last moment, the scimitar in Gongsun Yan's hand moved, "jingle bell", knocked on Gao Sheng's sword, and swung the blade away. Gao Sheng didn't expect Gongsun Yan to block it, and asked loudly with his eyes open, "Why did General Gongsun save him?" ”

Gongsun Yan looked at Gao Sheng coldly and said, "We didn't catch the old man of the Ghost Valley, and we caught an apprentice back, so there is a saying, so why should we execute him immediately?" ”

Gao Sheng understood Gongsun Yan's intentions, he glanced at Su Qin hatefully, and said in his heart: "This time, I will take your life, I am not afraid that I will not have a chance to take revenge in the future." ”

Su Qin observed Gao Sheng's expression, and knew that this person was worried about himself, but now that he was reduced to a prisoner and slaughtered by others, it was better to be detached, so Su Qin closed his eyes slightly, with a look of indifference.

Gongsun Yan ordered the Qin army to rest on the spot for an hour, and after that, he led his men overnight and marched west in the direction of Quwo, preparing to join the Qin army.

Because he was in a hurry to return to Quwo, Gongsun Yan ordered his troops to march overnight, and the Qin soldiers climbed the mountains and crossed the mountains, exhausted and miserable.

Su Qin was already injured, and after a whole day of fighting and running, his body was almost exhausted. His wound was extremely painful, his head drooped, and he was pushed forward by Qin Bing.

On the way, Su Qin had been staring in a daze, and he fell asleep after walking a few times, and the Qin soldiers who were escorting him shook him violently, and he woke up.

Su Qin glared at the soldier who pushed him very reluctantly, and muttered in his mouth: "It's too barbaric, and you can't let people live!" The soldier who pushed him on his march paid no attention to what he said, and continued to escort him forward with a blank face.

Su Qin observed the soldiers of the Qin State on the march, and saw that although they were extremely tired, they were still in a neat formation and marching in order, and he couldn't help but admire their military discipline.

In fact, the soldiers of the Qin State did not want to rest, but the general had orders, and they must obey them unconditionally. The Qin soldiers' good sense of discipline was rooted in Shang Ying's changes in the Qin State.

Shang Ying's reform was not only limited to agriculture, he also made very bold changes to the military system of the Qin State: abolishing the hereditary titles of nobles, and all the military merits of the soldiers determined the level of the titles.

Although the Shang Ying's reform method was less gracious, it was extremely effective. Su Qin saw the Qin army's unusually strict military discipline with his own eyes today, and he had a personal feeling about it.

The procession marched through the night and day, and finally reached the city of Quwo at dusk.

Quwo is the central city on the land of the Three Jin Dynasty since the Western Zhou Dynasty, located more than 150 miles east of the Yellow River, the Spring and Autumn Period Jin Wugong used this as a base to occupy his nephew's country, and the side branch replaced the authentic one, and the Jin State began to dominate the world.

This place has been owned by Wei since the Warring States period, and at this time the city has been besieged by the Qin army, and the Qin army has invaded the Wei land.

Su Qin glanced at the black and oppressive Qin army camp under Quwo City, gasped, and said in his heart: "The prestige of the Qin State is really extraordinary. ”

Gongsun Yan and Gao Sheng escorted Su Qin into the Qin army camp and went straight to the Chinese army's tent. Su Qin saw that the round dome of the big tent was wide, with a diameter of three zhang, and the entire big tent was tightly wrapped by black cloth from top to bottom, and the whole area of the big tent was cleaned and tidy.

Gongsun Yan came to the door of the big tent and asked the guard to go inside, the guard nodded and agreed, turned around and entered the tent, and came out after a while, and replied sonorously: "Lord Wei Wei has invited General Gongsun and Mr. Gao Sheng to meet in the tent." ”

Gongsun Yan and Gao Sheng pushed Su Qin into the tent on the left and on the right. Su Qin looked up and found that in the back of the center of the big tent, there were a few cases, and a general in his fifties was sitting behind several cases.

His face was as heavy as water, his three locks of long hair were fluttering, his figure was thin, his eyes were shining, and his expression was not angry and arrogant. His actions exude a spirit of can-do and command.

Gongsun Yan and Gao Sheng knelt on the ground with a puff, and then the two of them clasped their fists and bowed, and reported: "The last general will see the main general of Wei." ”

The old general, who was sitting behind a few cases, raised his hands and arched slightly, returned a salute, and said calmly: "I don't know what military information the two comrades have reported to me?" ”

So, Gongsun Yan and Gao Sheng, one as the main and the other as the helper, reported their actions to Lord Wei in detail. The old general listened to the report and interjected from time to time to ask for details.

Su Qin knelt on the ground, listening to their conversation, and he vaguely guessed that it should be General Wei Wei, who was known as Gongzi, who was sitting behind a few cases. Wei Wei can fight well, and his reputation spreads all over the world, and his age is in line with the general in front of him.

There is also a well-known story about Wei Wei: in the twenty-second year of Qin Xiaogong, Shang Ying was awarded the title of Qin State Daliangzao, and led his troops to unite with the Eastern Qi State to attack the Wei State, and Wei Wei was ordered to fight the Qin army in the west when he was in danger.

Shang Ying and Wei Wei were good friends when they were young, and on the battlefield, Shang Ying deceived Wei Wei to negotiate peace, but Wei Wei risked his appointment because of his gullibility to his friends, but was ambushed by the Qin army on the way and became a prisoner.

King Wei Hui was furious and executed all of Wei Wei's close relatives. Wei Wei was full of resentment and despair, so he had to stay in Qin and not return.

Su Qin thought: "No wonder the Wei army has been defeated repeatedly, it turns out that Wei Wei is leading the Qin army to fight; Wei Wei is a generation of famous generals, proficient in the art of war, and familiar with the arrangement of Wei troops, terrain and landforms, coupled with the courage of the Qin army, how can Wei not be defeated. ”
