The defenders, who had lost their main general, were still numerically advantageous, but they were no match for Zhao's army at all.

Storm Luan rushed to the front, and the big knife was constantly waving, like a tiger rushing into the flock, constantly reaping the lives of the Qin army.

Li Si also joined the ranks of the battle, although his strength was not as good as that of Storm Luan, but he also had internal energy, a little stronger than most soldiers.

Countless torches had been lit in Yique Pass, reflecting the city brighter than day, and the dense Qin army surrounded it from all sides.

"Puff puff!"

Zhao Jun pulled the trigger, and one after another crossbow arrows flew out, and the cold arrows pierced the chest of the Qin army, and the Qin army fell in rows like cutting wheat.

The only thing that didn't join the battle was the burning knife, although he didn't have any feelings with these Qin troops, and he didn't even know each other, but after all, they were all Qin people, and he still couldn't do it.

Storm Luan and Li Si didn't force him either, the two of them were in a good mood, Yique had already taken it down, and the rest were some inconsequential little things.

Seeing that the enemy was invincible, the remaining Qin army abandoned Yique one after another, turned around and fled south, but was soon chased and killed by Storm Luan and Li Si.

"General Storm Luan, please go south to Yichuan immediately to see if Yichuan is occupied by the Qin army. If Yichuan has been occupied by the Qin army, come back and tell me immediately. If Yichuan is still in the hands of Korea, ask Yichuan County to summon the people, transport some grain and grass to Yique, and send someone to inform King Han and Xiangguo. Although it is already dark and raining heavily, we really don't have time, so please do your best." Lees said quickly.

Yichuan is also located in the lower reaches of Yishui, but south of Yique, it is the largest city in the Yishui Basin, and even Yique cannot compare.

Yique is just a pass, and Ikawa Castle is a real city.

If Yichuan is still in the hands of South Korea, the Sanjin who took Yique can almost be said to be safe, as long as Korea transports grain and grass, the more than 20,000 troops of the Sanjin can retreat from Yique to the Qin State.

If Yichuan has been taken by the Qin army, the Sanjin can only find a way to take Yichuan, or bypass it.

But this time must be fast, because there is not much grain and grass in Sanjin, and it will be less than one day a day.

"It's all this time, what else is not hard." Storm Luan said with a smile.

Li Si is not for himself, but for everyone, if it weren't for Li Si, Sanjin would not be able to go today, and he would have been trapped in the royal city by the Qin army a long time ago.

"The rest of the brothers, clean up the battlefield and pile up the corpses and burn them. Leave two hundred men with me to defend the city, and the remaining three hundred burn some ginger water and food, and rest immediately after eating." Lees ordered.

When he was in Wangcheng, Zhao Jun could often eat meat, especially the salted dried fish sent directly from the port through the river, which could not be eaten at all, and even the defenders of the Western Zhou Dynasty could mix it with fish.

Since leaving the royal city, Zhao Jun's food has plummeted, not to mention meat, not even a hot food.

It is only now that I dare to make a fire after taking Yique.

"Join the army, you've been fighting for a day, you should go and rest." Li Hao, the centurion of the Zhao army, walked over, sat next to Li Si, and said with a smile.

"Didn't you fight for a day?" Li Si asked rhetorically.

"We're all rough people, not like joining the army. Although joining the army is with us now, our brothers all think that after joining the army, we will become a great officer, and we will be a commander at most for the rest of our lives." Li Hao said.

"What's the difference, it's all born to my parents, one nose and two eyes, is it possible that my Li Si has an extra mouth than you? Do you think I'm from a noble family?" Lees looked at the family from five hundred years ago.

"Isn't it?" Li Hao said that he had always thought that Li Si was born in a noble family.

Although from the late Spring and Autumn Period until the Warring States Period, due to the defeat of a large number of nobles from the altar, the knowledge and knowledge that had been monopolized by the upper class were moved downward, which in turn led to the rise of the scholar class.

Countries have gradually changed from being worldly to meritocracy.

But in the final analysis, those so-called poor families are still from aristocracy, several generations up, many of them

Not inferior to Zhao, Han, and Wei.

After all, if there has not been an extremely brilliant peak era, how can it leave a brilliant mark in the history of China.

Moreover, these so-called poor families who were selected by meritocracy are only a very few.

The largest number of nations is still the aristocracy.

The Qin State told the world that they didn't ask about their background, they were meritocrats, Shang Ying, Zhang Yi, Fan Ju and others were all from humble families, and they all ascended to the position of Xiangguo and held the power of Qin.

But what they won't say is that only these people are poor.

The vast majority of the rest are aristocrats.

The poor family has no roots and no foundation, and it is impossible to break through the shackles of the nobility unless they are amazing and gorgeous. And how many people can there be in an era of amazing talents?

As for the common people under the cold door, let alone it.

Zhao Guo is also known as a meritocracy, but in the entire court, all the ministers combined, only Cai Ze and Mo Feng were from poor families, and Ben was born from a common people.

And is Ben reaching this position today because of ability? There are some reasons, but the main reason is because of Zhao Kuo's trust in him.

To put it mildly, for a monarch, the loyalty of his subordinates is far more important than ability.

Otherwise, there would not be "all the birds, and the good bow is hidden; The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackey cooks." This sentence.

Under the military merit system, Zhao Guo opened a visible promotion path for the countrymen, but this road, for the vast majority of people, can see the end, and this end is not far away.

Of course, everyone is already very satisfied, although they can't become nobles through the efforts of one generation, but if each generation can work like this, and each generation can climb a few steps to the top, then one day, they will also become nobles.

But under the military merit system, there is always such a group of people who are special, just like the four nobles of the Qin State, who are still crowned kings without military merits.

Zhao Guo is not exempt from vulgarity.

At a time when ordinary people were still risking their lives to kill the enemy and fight for the ownership of a head, Zhao Sheng's son, Wei Wuji's son, and Lin Xiangru's grandson had already ruled the side and displayed their ambitions, or joined the army to realize their ideals.

Maybe they didn't go through their father's or grandfather's relationship, but just relied on their own abilities to get to this point.

But as long as their father and grandfather are still the senior officials of the Zhao State and the important ministers of the Zhao State, someone will open the door to them.

Officialdom is never about fighting and killing, but about human feelings.

Li Si's age is destined to be impossible to climb to this position through military exploits, otherwise this name would have resounded throughout the entire Zhao army like Li Mu and Meng Wu.

Therefore, Li Hao naturally thought that Li Si was born in a noble family and came to the army for training.
