Bai Yan rode a war horse, on a mound behind the army, looking at the mountains in the distance, the army of Zhao State covered the entire plain.

Beside Bai Yan, Wang Ben gave orders to defend one by one.

In terms of the army's entrenchment, Wang Ben followed his father Wang Jian and was already familiar with it.

Therefore, at the moment, when Li Mu of Zhao State led a large army to come, Wang Ben was still able to give orders one by one in an orderly manner.

Bai Yan didn't care about the command at this time, and let Wang Ben command.

On the opposite side are Li Mu and Zhao Bianqi, who are famous all over the world, and when it comes to life and death, Bai Yan naturally won't care about anything else at this time.

What's more, Bai Yan is clear.

The most important thing for a general to do is to know how to use people, and the most taboo thing is to be strong.

On the plains.

Bai Yan looked at the army of Zhao in the distance, and felt a little nervous, because this line of defense was chosen by him, and if the loss of this place led to the failure of this attack on Zhao, he would inevitably be convicted.

And Bai Yan thought of what Bai Yu had said to him at the beginning.

He is not Li Xin, his name is Bai Yan, if he is defeated on the battlefield of Zhao State, the generals of Zhao State will definitely not let him go.

It can be said that Bai Yan now really understands the pressure of leading troops to fight.

"It seems that Zhao Jun doesn't plan to attack now!"

Wang Ben rode a war horse, looked at the Zhao army in the distance with a nervous expression, and spoke.

Wang Ben once followed his father and confronted Li Mu, so Wang Ben knew very well how terrifying Li Mu's troop deployment was.

Thankfully, the Lord will be Bai Yan, and Bai Yan trusts him and gives him full command of the army.

Bai Yan heard Wang Ben's words and nodded.

"I don't know if the chief general of our army is General Wang Jian or not, and he has some scruples."

Bai Yan guessed.

Because yesterday, the army of the Qin State and the army of Zhao arrived almost at the same time, so he was sure that Li Mu would not attack at night, but from today onwards, Bai Yan was no longer sure that Li Mu had planned to do as he did last night.

"General, it seems that the Zhao army does not have 100,000 people!"

Chai rode a war horse, dressed in Qin armor, and looked at the army of Zhao in the distance.

Zhao's army does not seem to have 100,000 people, but it is about 50,000, which is at least half of the number reported by the soldiers yesterday.

Bai Yan listened to Chai's words, his brows furrowed slightly.

Bai Yan naturally also saw that the number of Zhao Jun who came here was not at all 100,000, but at the moment, before the spy came back, no one knew which direction Li Mu asked the tens of thousands of Zhao Jun to go.

No.

Maybe there's a chance!

Bai Yan looked at the army of Zhao in the distance, his eyes were thoughtful, but this opportunity requires luck.

In terms of army planning, today, no one can compare to Li Mu, even Wang Qian, in Bai Yan's heart, can't.

Because Wang Jian has a steady stream of Qin troops behind him and the national strength of Qin, but Li Mu doesn't even have Zhao behind him.

At the beginning, when the general Huan Qi of the Qin State was still there, a large number of old Wang Jian as deputy generals could see that in the eyes of the King of Qin and the important ministers of the Qin State, the ability of the general Huan Qi was above Wang Qian.

And it was under such circumstances that Li Mu beheaded the general Huan Qi of the Qin State.

Moreover, Wang Jian himself has said bluntly many times that he is not sure to win Li Mu.

"Where will the rest of the tens of thousands of Zhao soldiers go?"

Wang Ben looked at Zhao Jun, his brows furrowed, and his eyes were full of worry.

At this moment, a lot of sweat has appeared in Wang Ben's clothes.

The pressure on Li Mu is too great.

"Zhao Jun wants to meet!"

Wang Ben saw that on the plains, in the midst of the vast Zhao army, a chariot drove over, and then a Zhao pawn on horseback rode towards their Qin army, Wang Ben immediately thought of the reason.

Wang Ben turned his head.

"This is the chief general of the Zhao army, whether it is Li Mu."

Wang Ben said to Bai Yan, and then said the method of identifying Li Mu: "Li Mu has a disease in his right hand!" You can't hold a sword or stretch out your arms. ”

Wang Ben knew that when Zhao Jun asked for a meeting, the commander of the Qin army could not go, otherwise once Zhao Jun laughed at Qin Jun, it would disturb the Qin army's heart, and Qin Jun would be timid and hesitant.

As a deputy general, it was naturally Bai Yan who went to meet.

"Good!"

Bai Yan nodded.

"Yan Mao, Ye, you two come with me."

Bai Yan turned his head and said to Yan Mao and Ye.

Yan Mao is among the generals of the Iron Cavalry, the fierce martial arts are the first, and the industry is not afraid of death.

And he is not in the army, it is an accident, Chai has to stay and control the iron cavalry.

"No!"

"No!!"

Yan Mao and Ye hurriedly surrendered their hands. Then they saw Bai Yan driving forward, and the two hurriedly followed.

On the plains.

In the army of Qin and Zhao, the respective flags of the two armies fluttered in the wind, and with the morning sun, countless soldiers in armor stood in place with weapons in hand.

And on the huge plain between them, under the gaze of countless soldiers, the main generals of the Qin and Zhao armies, each with a team of soldiers, went to meet in the middle.

Grunt~!

The sound of horses' hooves, the sound of wheels, when all sounds cease.

The soldiers holding the black flags of Changge and Qin, and the soldiers of the Zhao army on the opposite side, looked at each other vigilantly.

Bai Yan looked at the war vehicle opposite, and looked at the war vehicle, an old general in his fifties, slowly stepping off the war vehicle.

Bai Yan also turned over and dismounted.

Beside Bai Yan, Yan Mao and Ye also followed Bai Yan and walked towards the opposite side.

With the faint wind drifting by the riverside, Bai Yan, who was dressed in Qin armor, looked directly at the old general opposite, and also noticed that the old general's right arm was indeed disabled and seemed to be atrophied.

If that's right, this general of Zhao is Li Mu!

Li Mu!

It was the first time for Bai Yan to see this famous general who has been passed down for generations, but unlike the legends of later generations, Li Mu was not burly and strong, but like him, he didn't seem to be a general at all.

Li Mu's beard seems to have just been shaved, and the beard that has just grown at the corner of his mouth can be seen that Li Mu has only been away from home for a few days.

"I am Qin General Bai Yan! I don't know if the general is Zhao Wu, Anjun, Li Mu? ”

Bai Yan stepped forward and took the lead in saluting.

Thinking of Li Mu's deeds, he defeated the Huns, destroyed the rags, broke the Donghu, and even the Qin army.

It's false to say that you are not nervous.

If it weren't for the king's order, if it weren't for being a general of Qin, Bai Yan wouldn't be willing to rush to Zhao to face Li Mu at all.

Because of the battle against Li Mu on the battlefield, let alone winning, Bai Yan did not even have the certainty of leaving alive.

"Bai Yan, Gao Nu Bai Yan?"

On Li Mu's vicissitudes of life, when he heard Bai Yan's name, he thought about it, and then looked at the young Qin army general in front of him with interest.

Gao Nu war, he heard.

Dare to use 10,000 war cavalry to meet the 150,000 army of Yueshi and Xiongnu, this Bai Yan is worthy of being the first person he has ever seen after a famous general.

I thought that this young Bai disciple should be resting after the first battle of Gaonu, but I didn't expect to come to Zhao State.

"I'm Li Mu!"

Li Mu opened his mouth to answer Bai Yan, and then looked at the young Qin general in front of him, the vast and neat army of the Qin State, looking at the countless Qin Banners and Changge.

"I didn't expect that Qin Wangzheng would order you to be the deputy general at a young age!"

After Li Mu received the news from the spies last night, he looked at the defensive formation, thinking that it was the Qin general Wang Qian, but he didn't expect it to be the young Bai Yan.

In this way, the array that is very similar to Wang Jian should be from the hands of the Qin general Wang Ben, and the Bai Yan in front of him came to meet, then this Bai Yan should be the deputy general of the Qin army on this road.

"Bai Yan thanks to the king!"

Bai Yan heard Li Mu's words and said softly.

This sentence was suspicious of sycophancy, but Bai Yan still said it.

When Li Mu heard Bai Yan's words, he withdrew his gaze from the Qin army and looked at the young Qin general in front of him.

"The other line of soldiers and horses of the Qin State has been trapped in Yingchuan, and you alone will not be able to cross the well path."

Li Mu bluntly said what he meant.

Dissuade!

Li Mu directly told Bai Yan that with him Li Mu here, the Qin army would definitely not be able to cross the well path.

"Bai Yan knows Wu Anjun's ability!"

When Bai Yan heard Li Mu's words, he shook his head with a smile: "But Wu Anjun should also know that in the drought of the land and natural disasters, Bai Yan can't retreat!" ”

After speaking, Bai Yan looked at Li Mu.

Bai Yan knew that with Li Mu's skills, what Li Mu said just now was not an exaggeration at all.

But no matter how strong Li Mu is, the king is in his body, and it is impossible for him to lead the army to retreat at the moment.

However, he did not say the king's command, but said that because of the calamity, he would not retreat and could not retreat.

"Before the matter of Gao Nu, I didn't want to meet you on the battlefield, but I never thought that I would meet on the battlefield in the end, since I didn't retreat, then you and I would only meet each other in battle!"

Li Mu looked at the young Bai Yan.

Because Li Mu was stationed at the border all the year round, he hated the Xiongnu going south to plunder.

Therefore, as for Bai Yan's previous behavior and practices in Gaonu, as far as he is concerned, even if the other party is a Qin general, he still rarely appreciates this young Qin general.

Pity.

In the end, we met on the battlefield.

"Each is his master, and please ask Wu Anjun to give him advice!"

Bai Yan looked at Li Mu and bowed.

Li Mu looked at Bai Yan, nodded and saluted, and after saluting Bai Yan, he turned around and left.

After Bai Yanli finished, he stood in place and watched Li Mu's departing back.

In Bai Yan's heart, for Li Mu, he admired him from the bottom of his heart.

In terms of position, Li Mu, as a general of Zhao, dedicated his life to Zhao Guo and made countless contributions to Zhao Guorong's battlefield.

In terms of identity, Li Mu is a native of the Central Plains, and with only one person leading the army, the Xiongnu did not dare to go south to herd horses for ten years, so that the people of the Central Plains were favored by him.

Such a person does not have half a black spot.

When later generations always talked about Li Mu's destruction of the Xiongnu, they would always say that the Xiongnu were not in their heyday, but no one ever thought that Li Mu also destroyed 100,000 Xiongnu with the national strength of a vassal state.

And when the sun set in Zhao State, it was also Li Mu who supported Zhao State in one fell swoop.

It's a pity that no matter how desperately Li Mu is loyal to Zhao State, no matter how Li Mu destroys the ragged, breaks Donghu, rejects Han Wei, and even the Qin army.

The final result was not only that the Qin State wanted to get rid of Li Mu day and night, but even the Zhao State of Li Mu, who was in force, in the Zhao court, Guo Kai and other ministers wanted Li Mu to die, and even Zhao Wangqian never trusted this Li Mu, who was loyal to the Zhao State, and wanted him to die violently so that he could take over the military power.

Thinking of all this, he looked at Li Mu's right hand disabled, and he couldn't even hold a sword or eat.

At the moment, even Bai Yan couldn't help but sigh, the sky is long, what a thin Li Mu!

It seems that everything is unfair to Li Mu.

Thinking that he was also planning, how to get rid of Li Mu, Bai Yan felt a little guilty in his heart, and he was a little ashamed of his own methods, but his position was there, and Bai Yan had no choice.

As far as the world is concerned, on the battlefield, no one dares to say that he can beat Li Mu, which everyone in the world knows.

And his allegiance is to the state of Qin.

It is the reign of King Yingzheng of Qin.

The position is that as long as he can destroy Zhao Guo, he would rather be a villain and do whatever it takes.

Otherwise, if he fights Li Mu head-on, he and his Bai Iron Cavalry, I don't know how many people will die, and even all of them will be killed by Li Mu.

So after this battle, as long as he is alive, in the face of Li Mu, he will still choose to divide without hesitation.

In the army of Qin, Wang Ben rode a war horse, and after waiting for a long time, he finally saw that on the plains in the distance, Bai Yan and the soldiers of the Qin army rode their war horses one after another, and returned to the army.

And the chief general of the Zhao army also returned to the chariot and walked to the army of Zhao.

"How? But Li Mu? ”

Wang Ben waited for Bai Yan to come back before he asked curiously.

Bai Yan nodded at Wang Ben.

"It's Li Mu!"

Bai Yan opened his mouth and replied, a little helpless in his words.

For him, since he joined the army, he has experienced many wars, but no matter that time, whether it is in Korea or in Gaonu, he has not been as uneasy as he is now.

This kind of uneasiness comes from Li Mu.

This famous general of Zhao who has never been defeated in his life.

Now the war is imminent.

Looking at Li Mu's past achievements, it can be seen that Li Mu will never fight a battle that he is not sure of.

Knock knock ~ !!!!

Suddenly, there was the sound of war drums in the distance behind him, and Bai Yan turned his head and looked at the Zhao army in the distance.

The army of Zhao was already beating the drums, which was the sound of the horn of the war.

Obviously, after Li Mu knew that it was not Wang Jian who led the troops, he had already guessed that the army led by Wang Jian must not have arrived in Yanhe.

"Beat the drums!"

Wang Ben also hurriedly ordered the heralds, and immediately made people beat drums to boost morale.

Bai Yan rode his horse and returned to the mound.

Looking at Wang Ben's nervous face, Bai Yan also looked at the Zhao army in the distance with some concern, and could only believe that Wang Ben could hold it now.

Li Mu still has an army of 50,000 missing, which is not a good thing.

Now he can only pray that Wang Ben can defend this place under Li Mu's attack, as long as he holds it, he will have the opportunity to know Li Mu's plan.

Daidi has been in drought for many years, and now there is an earthquake, and the people of Daidi have been killed and injured countless times, and the generals and soldiers under Li Mu's command are all from Daijun and Yanmen, so there must be a chance.

"It's coming!"

Wang Ben saw that under the mountain range in the distance, the Zhao army of the two phalanxes began to attack here, and his heart was shocked.

Bai Yan saw that Zhao Bianqi was also behind the Zhao army's formation, and attacked together.

"Let the soldiers be ready to protect the right flank and wait for orders at any time."

Bai Yan ordered.

"No!"

Chai hurriedly gave the order, and then turned to his cronies to instruct.

"Prepare the archers!"

Wang Ben opened his mouth and ordered.

Accompanying the herald to inform Wang Ben of Wang Ben's order with the order flag, not long after, under Bai Yan's gaze, the Qin army's crossbow soldiers and soldiers holding wooden shields took another fifty steps forward.

Rows of Qin soldiers held bows and crossbows, walked forward, and after bringing them to their positions, they stood in place, raised their bows and crossbows with arrows, and aimed at the Zhao army array coming from afar.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Bai Yan listened to the small roar of the generals of the Qin army, and then saw the rows of soldiers of the Qin army at the front, all facing the direction of Zhao Guo's soldiers, pulling the crossbow machine.

With the dense arrows shooting towards the Zhao army, even if the soldiers of the Zhao State were prepared and raised the wooden shield, there were many casualties.

After two or three waves of arrows, many Zhao soldiers fell to the ground one after another.

At this time, the crossbowmen of the Qin army also entered the range of the Zhao army's curved bow, and almost instantly, countless arrows fell from the sky.

The soldiers with bows and crossbows hurriedly retreated and squatted down, while the soldiers of the Qin army with shields hurriedly held their shields to block the front.

With countless arrows flying down, a famous Qin army soldier fell to the ground one after another, some were crossbowmen, and some were soldiers holding shields.

Accompanied by several waves of arrows fired at each other.

Bai Yan and Wang Ben rode war horses, stood on the mound, and watched the army of Zhao get closer and closer.

Wang Ben hurriedly ordered the phalanx holding Changge to step forward and prepare for battle.

Knock knock~!!

After Wang Ben's order was issued, the herald held the order flag and rode towards the phalanx, but after a few breaths, he saw a large Qin army phalanx holding Changge, walking towards the front, replacing the crossbowmen, standing at the front.

A moment later.

Accompanied by the soldiers of the two armies of Qin and Zhao, the moment they came into contact on the plain, countless Changge staggered each other and stabbed at each other.

Whether it was the soldiers of the Qin army or the soldiers of the Zhao State, they were all red-eyed in an instant.

With Changge's comings and goings, almost all the time, you can see someone dying under Changge, falling to the ground and turning into a corpse.

At this time, whether it was the Qin army or the Zhao army, from their respective phalanxes, some soldiers with Qin swords and sharp blades appeared, and they killed each other desperately, wanting to use close combat to kill the opponent's soldiers holding long soldiers.

Accompanied by the sound of Changge's impact, the screams of the soldiers, and the sound of sharp blades colliding.

on the battlefield.

More and more soldiers are lying in pools of blood.

Whether it was Li Mu in the army of Zhao in the distance, or Wang Ben in the army of Qin, they all watched all this.

At this moment, Wang Ben was a little lucky, fortunately, the terrain here was narrow, and under the mountains on both sides, the curved Zhangshui River made Zhao Jun unable to exert it, otherwise he was alone, and he really didn't dare to guarantee that he could resist Li Mu.

Yu Guang looked at Bai Yan, at this moment, Wang Ben did not blame Bai Yan for not being able to help him, at Bai Yan's young age, the things he had done before had far exceeded his expectations.

Facing Li Mu.

Even if his father was here, Li Mu, who was not sure that he could win, how could he expect Bai Yan to help him.

For now, all he wants is to hold on here.

Looking at the army of Zhao in the distance, what made him most uneasy at the moment was the tens of thousands of army of Zhao that disappeared.
