Chapter 339: Chaotic Battle in the Central Plains (39)
Bai Qi waved his hand to stop the guards behind him, and also took a few steps forward, and said to the bald head: "General Dian, long time no see." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The army looked carefully at the somewhat old Bai Qi, and his heart was also a little miserable, the two of them were of the same age, and they were friendly soldiers during the Battle of Changping, so the friendship between the two was still good, but now they are their masters, and it is inevitable to meet on the battlefield.
"It's been a long time, it's only been more than ten years, but you're aging so fast."
The pawn army jumped off the war horse, did not bring weapons, went straight to a slightly flat place and sat on the ground, Bai Qi, did not hesitate, and sat happily opposite the pawn army, but his guards were a little worried, and wanted to follow, but were stopped by Bai Qi waving his hand.
"I didn't expect it, I finally sent you over, didn't you change the way of Taoguang and obscurity, why did King Qin summon and you ran out again, you are not afraid of ruining your reputation here?"
Bai Qi smiled bitterly and stretched out his fingers, nodded his head vigorously, and said in a very flat tone: "You also know that he is the king of Qin, and the edict has come down, do you dare to disobey it?" ”
"Is there anything in this world that you don't dare to do?" Dianjun glanced at him in disbelief and said, "I don't think I dare, I'm afraid I don't want to." You have made up your mind to be a lonely minister from the beginning, except for the King of Qin, you have never really been loyal to anyone, including Wei Ran, who gave you the grace of knowing the same, you should have been prepared in your heart, that is, when the King of Qin no longer trusts you, you will take the initiative to hand over the military power in your hands, so honest that you can't be honest, you want to take advantage of this to survive, your life is not in your own hands, the cunning rabbit is dead and the lackey cooks, don't you ever think about yourself? ”
Bai Qi smiled indifferently and said: "After staying in Xianyang for ten years, I often think about a question, that is, whether I killed too many people, and then I asked myself, if I don't kill them, I will have to fight city by city, how many people should they die, and my sons will use their lives to attack the city walls one by one, so in this way, there will be more deaths, if from this point of view, I am not killing people but saving people." ”
"Saving people? When the soldiers meet tomorrow, you will show me mercy. ”
Dian Jun glanced at Bai Qi with great contempt, the righteousness of the fallacies and heresies was awe-inspiring, and Bai Qi's skills were extraordinary.
In this way, on the battlefield of the confrontation between the two armies, the main generals of the two sides relied on the two huge tombs to fart and chat, while the guards behind formed a great contrast, and they almost pulled out their knives and beat each other.
However, friendship is friendship, and it has to be fought when it is time to fight, and Bai Qi will never delay military affairs because of personal relations, so the attack on the second day is not mixed with any water.
In the sound of the drums, the Qin army with a copper shield drove to the place outside the city, followed by a dense water of pedal crossbowmen, in the sound of drums, a captain with a small colored flag stood in the middle of the team, and the crossbowmen within ten rows around him all listened to his orders.
"Put!"
The black cloud-like crossbow arrows rose into the air, like a small chisel, and slammed into the thick city wall of Shangdang County, and all the houses near the city wall were scolded, and the powerful arrows covered the ground tightly like raindrops, whether it was a thatched roof or a roof with tiles, they could not stop those sharp arrows at all, and the arrows that passed through the blocking were scurrying in the house, and the wooden pillars that were shot were crackling, and sawdust was flying.
The Dian army was guarding the city with a big shield, peeking down along the gap between the attacks, and saw that a group of foot soldiers began to pour out in the opposite military formation, the Dian army knocked on the shield with his hand, and shouted: "Give me some energy, the Qin army has begun to attack the city, as long as it can resist the first wave, the rest is easy to say!" Set up your shield! Set up your shields! ”
The two heavily armed giant beasts finally collided together, Bai Qi knew that the pawn army on the opposite side was also a fierce general, so he fought extremely cautiously in this battle, and even a little conservative, the two sides fought back and forth for more than a month, although each had its own victory and defeat, but there was still no progress.
It's just that this kind of situation is not what Ying Zheng wants to see, what he wants is a devastating victory, not a grinding worker like a foot-bound old lady!
A sealed edict was sent to Bai Qi urgently, and the content in it was much the same, that is, to let Bai Qi fight quickly and take Shangdang County.
"King, Bai Qi is known as a human slaughter, but he is a famous general today, and he has also broken through Shangdang County, but I don't know why, after encountering a little-known army, our General Bai was tied up."
In the early dynasty of the Qin Palace, when Yingzheng mentioned the war in Shangdang County again, Fan Sui took the initiative to take over the conversation.
Since Lü Buwei stepped into the position of Xiangguo, Fan Sui thought that his political life was going to end completely, but he didn't expect Lü Buwei to not deliberately target him, but instead show favor to him, which made Fan Sui, who smelled a different smell, quickly fall into Lü Buwei's camp and became Lü Buwei's best mouthpiece in the Qin court.
For Bai Qi, Lü Buwei has always maintained enough caution, originally this time to send troops, Lü Buwei did not like appointing Bai Qi as a general, but later Yingzheng insisted on going his own way, and Lü Buwei got Zhao Ji's mention in advance, so he made some concessions. Now that Bai Qi has a handle in his hand, Fan Sui understands what Lu Buwei means, so he jumped out and tried Yingzheng's tone.
Although he knew that Fan Sui was already Lu Buwei's person, after all, he still had a sign of prime minister, and Ying Zheng couldn't ignore Fan Sui's opinion, not to mention what Fan Sui said about him, so Ying Zheng nodded with satisfaction on the throne and motioned for Fan Sui to continue.
Fan Sui shook his sleeves, and Shi Li said: "The king, the minister listened to people's words, before the war, General Bai had talked with the other party's main general Dian Jun in front of the battlefield for a long time, these two were in the same army when they were fighting Zhao, and the relationship should be quite good, the minister guessed that General Bai's attack was unfavorable, whether it was entrained with personal friendship, for the sake of safety, the minister suggested changing generals!" ”
"Change?"
Montaigne next to him frowned, and stopped talking, his own Mengshi clan has a better relationship with Yingguang, and the king has intentionally or unintentionally isolated the generals of the Mengshi clan on weekdays, it stands to reason that he should avoid suspicion at this time, but it is a taboo to change generals in battle, if he is not reminded, I am afraid that there will be a big problem.
Just as he was hesitating, he listened to Fan Sui continue: "The minister recommended a person, although this person does not have the prestige of General Bai, but he is also a veteran of the battle, let him go out, maybe there will be unexpected gains." (To be continued.) )
