Chapter 131: The Qin Army Retreats

Hearing such a strange order, Bai Qi was stunned. Although there were all kinds of doubts in his heart, Bai Qi still knelt down and said: "The minister accepts the order!" ”

After getting up, Bai Qi didn't care about his demeanor and asked: "Your honor, seeing that our army is about to defeat the main force of the Zhao army, why do you withdraw at this critical juncture!" What happened to Xianyang? ”

For the sake of this big victory, Bai Qi racked his brains and was willing to take risks, and finally returned to the current situation. When she was about to succeed, the Queen Mother said that Xianyang had changed, and she wanted to recall the army and let her hard work go down the drain. The Queen Mother has obviously ignored state affairs for a long time, and this time she bypassed King Qin's order, which is really incomprehensible.

Although he knew that there was no one in the tent, the messenger looked left and right, and then said cautiously: "This matter is very important, but it can only get out of my mouth and into your ears." Wu Anjun must not tell the third person. ”

Bai Qi's expression froze, and he nodded solemnly.

The messenger then whispered: "The forbidden army rebelled, fortunately, the commander of Xianyang led the army to quell the chaos, but the king was seriously injured and is still unconscious. The hero of the rescue, the commander of Xianyang, reported that the master of the rebellion was Wanhou. Wanhou wrote a book to defend herself, and the Queen Mother was in a dilemma! Only then did he rush to order the general to return to Xianyang overnight. Now that the whole Xianyang is surging, if the general does not go back, the Qin State is afraid that it will really be in chaos. ”

Bai Qi's face changed immediately, this series of news was too shocking. However, if it is true, the Qin State will really be in trouble. The most loyal forbidden army actually participated in the rebellion, which was also related to Wanhou, and the king was unconscious. No matter what the final outcome is, Xianyang will definitely set off a bloody storm.

Thinking of this, Bai Qi asked, "What is the specific situation in Xianyang now?" ”

The messenger replied: "The Queen Mother is furious, and the 2,000 forbidden troops who participated in the rebellion have all been beheaded for public display. Now the four gates of the entire Xianyang City have been closed, the curfew has been enforced, and the city defense is in charge of the Queen Mother's henchmen. Although 50,000 troops were allocated to garrison Xianyang. The Queen Mother was still not at ease, and asked the general to arrive within ten days, otherwise he would ......"

At this point, the Messenger did not speak again. Bai Qi knew that the Queen Mother was now in great difficulty. The hero who rescued the driver reported that Childe City was the mastermind behind the murder of the king, and he and Childe City were inextricably linked. In order to prevent problems before they happen. He must rush to Xianyang to prove his innocence. In any case, the Queen Mother will not allow an important minister to command the troops outside at such a delicate moment.

In Bai Qi's opinion, if King Qin can wake up, the truth will naturally be revealed, and the chaos in Qin will be smaller. If it passes away suddenly, what is the truth about the murder of the king. It will be a difficult question who will be the king.

"Did the Governor of Xianyang ever say that there is any evidence to prove that it was Wanhou?" Bai Qi asked.

Bai Qi plans to prepare in advance, but now it is a matter of standing in line, standing on the wrong team, at least wealth and wealth will not be guaranteed, and at worst he will be in a different place.

According to Du Wei, Xianyang Wei Hun also wanted to lead his troops to rebel, but he saw through it. Immediately killed. Wanhou's participation in the rebellion is Wei Hun's words. Lieutenant Xianyang could not produce conclusive evidence. ”

"Isn't he falsely accused?" Bai Qi said in surprise.

Without definite evidence, he dared to falsely accuse the loyal ministers of the Qin State, and now everyone involved in this matter is dead, and there is no proof of death, is the Xianyang Governor tired of living?

"That's not true. However, the commander of Xianyang insisted that Wanhou was guilty of rebellion, and although there is no evidence at present, he will investigate deeply. There will always be clues. For this reason, the lieutenant of Xianyang directly entered the prison of Tingwei himself, saying that it was the day he was waiting for Zhaoxue. ”

Bai Qi sighed secretly, this time, the Queen Mother must be very convinced. Childe City was originally a potential object of suspicion. Now there is a rescuer who has been identified, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to justify it.

"At the time of the incident, Wanhou was in Xianyang?" Bai Qifu asked.

If Wanhou is in Xianyang, then everything is under the control of the Queen Mother. It's okay to stand on the side of the Queen Mother.

"Wanhou is in Yongcheng!" Bai Qi got this answer.

"Yongcheng?" Bai Qi looked surprised.

"Yes! On the day of the mutiny, Marquis Wan worshipped his ancestors in the old capital of Yongcheng, and the king agreed. ”

Bai Qi frowned and was silent, this is not normal. According to what the messenger said, if it weren't for the wisdom of the commander of Xianyang, the whole of Xianyang would have been controlled by the rebels. If this is the case, Gongzi City, as the mastermind, should stay in Xianyang. In this way, you can control the overall situation in time. It's impossible to run so far to Yongcheng!

"Your envoy is sure that Wanhou is in Yongcheng?" Childe asked again.

"Yes! The old man of the Empress Dowager has ordered Wanhou to rush back to Xianyang to prove his innocence. However, halfway through, Wanhou suddenly fell seriously ill, and now the car is stuck in Chencang. The doctor sent by the Queen Mother is treating him. ”

The messenger delivered another explosive message. Bai Qi is completely confused, since the doctor sent by the Queen Mother proves that Gongzi City is indeed sick, it means that Gongzi City should be innocent, otherwise he would not go to Xianyang. But if it wasn't done by Childe City, who did it!

"General! No matter what the current situation of the war is, I will advise you to return to the court immediately. A messenger has already gone to Anyi to inform the prime minister to return to preside over the overall situation. If she goes late, the Queen Mother is afraid that she will be very unhappy. The messenger kindly prompted.

Bai Qi looked towards the north, sighed secretly in his heart, but said with a straight face: "I immediately order the whole army to pull out the camp." ”

At the same time, such a scene was also staged in the important town of Anyi. After Wei Ran took the messenger, a distressed look appeared on his face.

Taodai Li Zhuang's plan was both a success and a failure. In the original plan, the entire Xianyang should be under the control of Gongzi City, and at this time, Gongzi City has the power in his hands, and he can directly ascend the throne. But now that King Qin doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, he may die or be reborn from death, and there are too many variables in this. Xianyang is now under the control of the Queen Mother, whether to go into the tiger's den alone or take risks and raise troops to rebel, Wei Ran is a little hesitant. If the army rebelled, whether Bai Qi would be on his side or not, Wei Ran was not completely sure.

However, no matter which option you choose, you must hurry back to Guguan now. The messenger said that Bai Qi had also received such an order, maybe they had already returned to the division. Hedong didn't expect to win it this time, even if he wanted to defend it, it would be difficult and difficult. In the long run, you can only give up.

Thinking of this, Wei Ran called the deputy general and said, "Pass the order and withdraw the troops overnight tonight." ”

Qin State, Chen Cang.

A person who looks like a guard sneaks into the big tent of "Wanhou", and when he looks closely, this "guard" is actually nine points similar to the "Wanhou" on the couch, which is really strange. At this time, another guard walked in, looking at the costume, the grade was still above the first "guard".

But what was surprising was that the high-status guard said respectfully: "Wanhou, what should I do now?" As he spoke, he made a gesture to wipe his neck towards "Wanhou" on the couch.

Zhen Wanhou shook her head, although the Queen Mother checked "herself" and was sure that "herself" was not pretending to be sick. But now that King Qin's life and death are unknown, if he really wakes up, then he can still have a substitute for the dead ghost, and he can make a comeback.

"What is the direction of the wind in Xianyang right now?" Childe asked.

"The ministers of the court argued endlessly, Du Wei Yingze has been imprisoned, and there are rumors that he framed Gongzi to sit back, and some Yangongzi is a big suspect. The Queen Mother still did not express her position, leaving the ministers to argue. ”

"You say, will the king be dead? This is all the Queen Mother scolding me? "Childe City suddenly suggested a possibility.

"This ......" The head of the guard was stunned and said hesitantly: "My subordinates don't dare to say anything!" But the subordinates thought that Childe was the worst plan. ”

Childe nodded, yes! If King Qin really didn't die, he could only die and not admit his guilt. Anyway, someone can prove that they were in the old capital of Yongcheng at the time of the incident. However, in this way, he completely cut off the possibility of reconciliation with King Qin, and he could only continue to die.

"Is there any news from the Prime Minister and Wu Anjun?"

"There is news from the palace that the Queen Mother has sent someone to send a message to the Prime Minister and Wu Anjun for 800 miles, ordering him to return to Xianyang as soon as possible." The guard replied.

"Got it. Remember, keep the person in bed awake all the time. Childe instructed.

"Whoa!"

Nothing happened overnight.

The next day, 90,000 Zhao troops had a full meal, smashed all the cooking pots, brought only one day's rations, and slaughtered the Qin army in a mighty manner. All were told that if they didn't win the battle, they would die. Bai Qi has already released cruel words, this battle will use the heads of tens of thousands of Zhao troops to promote the prestige of Great Qin, and the Qin army will not take prisoners.

Zhao Jun has never lacked fighting spirit, especially in the current situation where he is almost out of ammunition and food. Both Qin and Zhao must fall today, and Zhao Jun firmly believes that if it is he who falls, he will also pull down the Qin army before he dies.

Gradually, the Zhao army was no more than five miles away from the Qin camp. At this time, the Qin army had already waved the banner and was ready to fight, but I don't know why, today was exceptionally quiet. Zhao Jun always felt that there might be some trap hidden behind this tranquility. The quiet Qin Ying was like a beast with a bloody mouth, quietly waiting for Zhao Jun to take the bait.

Lian Po was also a little surprised, but he had to send it when he was ready to fly. So he instructed the herald beside him: "Order the front army of 20,000 men to attack the camp immediately!" ”

"Whoa!" The herald took the order and left.

Soon, the rumbling war drums of the Chinese army sounded, and 20,000 Zhao troops slaughtered the "defenseless" Qin camp. Next, Lian Po made an even more astonishing discovery, the former army actually passed through the camp without hindrance. Yes, there was not a trace of resistance from the Qin army.

Soon, the former military captain came back and reported that the entire Qin army camp had been emptied. Lian Po was stunned. At this time, a puff of smoke and dust came from a distance, and one of the scouts immediately dismounted and put his ear to the ground, and then reported: "General, there are only a few hundred cavalry. ”

Lian Po nodded, intending to wait and see what happened. After a while, hundreds of cavalry dressed in Zhao army came to the front of the Zhao army's big array. Perhaps for fear of causing misunderstanding, they dismounted at a distance of more than 100 paces from the big array, raised their hands above their heads, and said, "General Lian! I'm the Jinyang Defender! Lord Taishou asked me to send a message to you, and the Qin army has all retreated! ”

"What? Qin Jun is all gone? Lian Po was really stunned this time. (To be continued......)
