Centricity.

From Yin and Jin along the official road, through the lake, out of the Hangu Pass, and then through the small Quwo outside the Hangu Pass, along the Kunsai, Mianchi, Western Zhou, Luoyang, Gongcheng, after bypassing the mountains and rivers, from Wanfeng, Xingyang, to Yingchuan County and Wei State junction of Licheng.

Along the way, Bai Yan, who commanded 20,000 soldiers and horses, took a full month and a half to arrive in Licheng, which was also due to the fact that from Qin to Sanchuan County and Yingchuan County, they all followed the river, and many places could use boats to transport grain and grass, saving a lot of effort.

After entering Licheng, Bai Yan did not rush to dispatch the army to march again, but stationed in Licheng.

For the next three days, Bai Yan had been dealing with the affairs of the army.

Three days later, Bai's iron cavalry and 30,000 Zhao border cavalry also arrived in Licheng one after another.

Outside the city of Licheng, with the arrival of nearly 60,000 Qin iron cavalry troops, the outside of the city was instantly full of tents, and at a glance, one by one, separated by a little distance, densely distributed outside the city.

In a mansion in the city.

"General!"

"General!!"

Yan Mao, Jue, Feng Nian and others, as well as Yang Yan, Yu He, Hewlett-Packard and others, more than 20 generals all gathered in the courtyard.

Seeing Bai Yan, the generals Yu He and the others on the side were fine, after all, they had only seen Bai Yan for a few months, but Yan Mao, Feng Nian and others had not seen Bai Yan for a long time.

Now when he saw Bai Yan in black again, the iron cavalry generals counted one by one, and they all looked extremely excited at this moment, and joy spread all over their faces.

Bai Yan walked to the courtyard, his eyes were still a little sleepy, and his mouth yawned slightly.

"General, all the iron cavalry have arrived in Licheng!"

"General, all the side cavalry have arrived in Licheng!"

Yan Mao and Yang Yan stepped forward one after another and reported to Bai Yan.

Bai Yan raised his spirits, heard the report of the two, glanced at the generals in front of him, and saw the smiling Feng Nian, Jue, as well as Yu He, Hewlett-Packard and others, Bai Yan smiled, and couldn't help but feel joy in his heart.

With the troops outside, nothing could make him feel more at ease than seeing these people in front of him.

Thinking of this, Bai Yan turned his head to look at Yan Mao, looking at the familiar scar on Yan Mao's cheek, and looking at Yan Mao, Bai Yan couldn't help but smile.

In the past, in the eyes of the world, the famous fierce general Yan Mao, at this moment, in front of Bai Yan, he showed a simple smile, and on his cheeks full of smiles, even the scars that looked particularly hideous seemed harmless to humans and animals, and there was no feeling as rumored outside, which was very infiltrating.

"Right now, except for the 60,000 troops in Yandi, all the 30,000 troops in Qianzhong have arrived in Licheng?"

Bai Yan asked.

Ying Zheng's army to Bai Yan was composed of 20,000 soldiers and horses in Hexi, 30,000 troops in Qianzhong, 60,000 troops attacking Yan State, and two iron cavalry in Yanmen, totaling 36,000 soldiers.

Don't look at the two iron cavalry of Yanmen have all come to Licheng, but after the spring ploughing, all the new pawns have entered the camp to practice, and now led by Chai, guarding the territory of Yanmen, especially in Yunzhong, Woyang, Yanmen Mountain, the Huns want to go south, it is not so simple.

Not to mention, today's Xiongnu have no threat to Yanmen at all.

Previously, when Qin Yan started the war, there was a rebellion in the Yue clan, and there was a big battle between the Yanmen and the Xiongnu, and the Qin army fought with Yan and Dai soldiers and horses, and in the entire north, only Donghu was safe and sound, without the slightest damage.

The Xiongnu and Donghu are both nomadic tribes, similar to Qin and Zhao, they are old enemies for generations, in the face of the intact Donghu this old enemy, at this time the Xiongnu brain pumping will go south, Tou Manshan can lead all the tribes of the Xiongnu, not a fool, let alone really for the power of the Central Plains, and damage the interests of the Huns.

Tou Manshan knew better than anyone that if he put the interests of the Central Plains forces above the Huns, he would definitely face the fate of betraying his relatives and not far from death.

"General Hui, they have all arrived, if there is no delay, the 60,000 troops in Yandi should be able to arrive in Licheng in about five days!"

After Yang Yan and Yan Mao glanced at each other, Yang Yan turned his head and reported to Bai Yan.

Yang Yan's voice fell, and Yan Mao on the side also raised his hand.

"The 30,000 troops in Qianzhong should also arrive in Licheng in about two days."

Yan Mao put away his smile, and after thinking about it, he agreed.

Hearing this, Bai Yan sighed deeply and nodded.

Just when everyone, Feng Nian, Jue, Yu He, Hewlett-Packard and others, thought that Bai Yan would immediately deploy an attack order against Wei, Bai Yan suddenly said something that caught everyone off guard.

"The soldiers have worked hard all the way to Xingyang, pass on my order, immediately go down and tell the soldiers of the whole army that Bai Yan has prepared a banquet of vegetables and meat, and in the next five days, the soldiers must eat and sleep well!"

Bai Yan looked at Yang Yan and Yan Mao and said.

Inside the yard.

Hearing Bai Yan's words, almost without exception, everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect Bai Yan's first order to rest and recuperate for the whole army, and it was still five days.

Yang Yan and Yan Mao both looked confused, looking at Bai Yan with puzzled eyes.

Yang Yan thought about it, hesitated and spoke.

"General, now that the Great Liang of Wei is close at hand, although the 60,000 soldiers and horses of Yandi have not arrived, but in two days, the army of Qianzhong will have 30,000 soldiers and horses arriving, and at that time, we may be able to attack Wei!"

Yang Yan suggested.

To tell the truth, Yang Yan, as the son of Yang Duanhe, has been familiar with military books since he was a child, and after joining the army, he followed his father to lead the troops to war, which is why Yang Yan was able to leave his father and lead the troops alone.

But looking at Bai Yan's actions now, Yang Yan couldn't understand at all that a soldier is valuable in his potential, and in this potential, there is speed.

Now that they have arrived in Licheng, not far from the capital of Wei, at this time, do not take the opportunity to besiege Daliang, but stop in Licheng to rest, what is the benefit, not only is it not conducive to the attack of the army, but even the frightened mood of the Wei soldiers will be relieved, and the morale can be restored.

Soldiers are very taboo about drumming up, then declining, and exhausting three.

Yan Mao on the side heard Yang Yan's words, although he had not read the book of soldiers, but he had won the experience of leading the soldiers all the way, and he also nodded lightly and looked at Bai Yan.

"Yes, general, now the soldiers are at a time when their morale is high, even if they fight with the Wei army, the soldiers are not afraid at all!"

Yan Mao said to Bai Yan.

Fang has just experienced the attack on Yan State, although he has experienced a big battle, but following Bai Yan's command again, not only the generals, but also every soldier is very excited, and they can't wait to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy immediately.

In Yan Mao's eyes, when the 30,000 Qianzhong army arrived in Licheng, plus the iron cavalry and side cavalry, it was enough to advance towards the Wei capital Liang, even if they encountered Wei soldiers and horses, they could fight.

"Don't worry, let the soldiers eat and sleep well first!"

Bai Yan shook his head, looked at the two of them with a smile, and then walked towards the study, preparing to continue to deal with the affairs of the army.

"No!"

"No!!"

When Yang Yan and Yan Mao saw Bai Yan's actions, although they were puzzled, they also hurriedly took orders and didn't ask any more.

A moment later.

As Yan Mao and Yang Yan went down to carry out the military orders respectively, Feng Nian and Qi found an opportunity to return to the mansion again and came to the study to see Bai Yan.

"General!"

Qi and Feng Nian are Bai Yan's best friends, one is talkative by nature, the other is introverted, the relationship between the two is much closer than imagined, in the past, whether they led troops in the big camp or attacked Yan State, the two were almost mixed together.

Bai Yan was looking at the bamboo slips, and when he saw the two of them coming, he smiled.

"Sit!"

Bai Yan didn't talk to the two politely, and directly asked the two to sit down opposite.

"General, why don't you attack Wei directly?"

When he heard Bai Yan's words, he smiled and sat down at the wooden table with Feng Nian, and then looked at Bai Yan curiously.

"When I was in Yandi before......"

Jue was worried that Bai Yan had not been to the Iron Cavalry Camp and did not know about the soldiers, so he slowly told Bai Yan about the camp.

At that time, when all the soldiers learned about the general's reward for encouraging the side cavalry in Yandi, as well as the general's words, everyone was eager to return to Yanmen immediately, replace the side cavalry, follow the general to kill the Xiongnu, and let the side cavalry attack Yan State.

No matter how famous the general is, no matter how powerful the general, in the eyes of the soldiers, he is not as good as his own general, this is the voice of all the iron cavalry soldiers, how the former general Bai Yan treated all the soldiers, every soldier knows it in his heart.

So a long, long time ago, whether it was a wounded soldier or someone else, they all wanted to return to the general's command as soon as possible.

At present, the generals don't have to worry about morale at all, whether it is the army of Wei or Chu, the soldiers are not afraid of a battle.

Inside the study.

Qi was still chattering about this, telling the soldiers in Bai Yan's camp, and a soldier outside the study came in with a walker and two guards.

"Yi Pai, meet General Bai Yan!"

When Yi Yan saw Bai Yan, he hurriedly gave up.

Seeing Yi Pai wearing an official uniform, Bai Yan was a little surprised, got up slowly, and then bowed to Yi Pai.

"This is an urgent order from the king to the general!"

Yi Jian said, and then took a roll of bamboo slips from the hands of the guards behind him and handed it to Bai Yan.

"There is labor!"

Bai Yan arched his hand, then took the bamboo slip with both hands, opened it and looked at it, and after a few breaths, his brows gradually furrowed.

Jue and Feng Nian looked at Bai Yan's appearance, and they were a little worried about whether something had happened again.

"Jue, Lord Yi has worked hard all the way, you send Lord Yi to rest."

Bai Yan turned his head to Qi and said, then looked at Feng Nian: "Order someone to invite General Yang Yan over!" ”

Hearing Bai Yan's words, Feng Nian and Qi nodded hurriedly, Qi motioned for Yi Ji to go with him, and Feng Nian walked towards the door.

"Thank you, General!"

Yi Mo bowed to Bai Yan to show his gratitude, and then turned around and left.

Half an hour later.

"General Wang Ben needs to be stationed in Jiaocheng?"

Yang Yan looked at the bamboo slips, looked up in astonishment, and looked at Bai Yan.

At this moment, Feng Nian and Qi also looked at each other puzzled, didn't General Wang Ben originally say that he would serve as the deputy general of the army and come to attack Wei together? Why do you suddenly have to stay in Jiaocheng, and you can't change other generals to appoint defense?

"Could it be those villains in the court again?"

Yang Yan frowned and looked at Bai Yan, when he was in Yanmen before, Yang Yan had already learned from his father that it seemed that most of the officials in the Xianyang court did not want Bai Yan to be the chief general of this attack on Wei.

"I have written to Xianyang and asked the king, this time General Yang Yan will be the deputy general!"

Bai Yan didn't answer Yang Yan, but just told Yang Yan that he had written a letter and ordered someone to send it to Xianyang.

"No! General Xie! ”

When Yang Yan heard Bai Yan's words, his eyes showed a hint of joy, and then he smiled, put down the bamboo slip, and got up to salute Bai Yan.

"We don't have to be polite!"

Bai Yan shook his head, and then looked at the bamboo slips on the wooden table.

Bai Yan knew that those officials alone were not enough to make Ying Zheng change his mind, obviously those important ministers in the court also had this suggestion, so Ying Zheng had to think about it, and finally weighed the pros and cons, when Ying Zheng ordered Wang Ben to be stationed in Jiaocheng, he did not order others to serve as deputy generals.

From beginning to end, Bai Yan didn't expect that there were so many people in the court, and he didn't want him to attack the Wei State this time.

"General, Yang Yan is ignorant, I don't know when the general is going to attack Wei this time, Yang Yan is worried, if he waits for a long time, he may have a change."

After Yang Yan knelt down and sat down, he said with a wry smile, when he returned to the camp, Yang Yan's mind was full of doubts, and he really didn't understand why Bai Yan planned to garrison in Licheng for five days.

Right now, seeing that there were only Feng Nian and Qi around, Yang Yan couldn't help but ask curiously again.

Because Bai Yan had saved Yang Yan's life, Yang Yan would never betray Bai Yan.

"At this time, it is already too late to attack the Wei State~!"

Bai Yan heard Yang Yan's words and said softly, and in Yang Yan's puzzled gaze, Bai Yan took a deep breath.

"Looking at the previous Teng Lao General received the order, directly led the troops to attack South Korea, first conquered the heavy city of Yangcheng, and then conquered the new city, and broke Shen Qian, so that there was no need to attack Xinzheng, and then after that, whether it was to destroy Zhao or cut Yan, even if Zhao Wubian rode and Yan had no army, he could also trap the capital, Handan City was broken, and there were no less than 20,000 dead! After the defeat of Yishui's army, General Wang Jian besieged it for half a year! ”

Bai Yan said this and looked at Yang Yan.

"Previously, Wei learned that Qin was about to attack Wei, and had already gathered all the soldiers and horses of Wei's cities, and the grain and grass were heavy, all of which were in Daliang City. Qin Wei was all lost. ”

Bai Yan said.

In Bai Yan's heart, in history, Wang Ben was the first to lead the army of more than 100,000 troops of the Qin State, and directly attacked the Liang of the Wei State, but as a result, he attacked the capital of the Wei State for several months, and countless casualties could not be captured, and even the army was restless.

is also like this, after the later attack on Daliang City, in order to calm the anger of the soldiers, it is also the anger in his heart, so he will not hesitate to kill Wei Wangfake.

Why was there anger, Bai Yan guessed that those Chu officials in the court at that time must have been aimed at Wang Ben as they are now, and there is a theory of profit and loss in the Qin State, once there are too many soldiers who die, all the generals and generals not only have no merit, but have been.

That's why there is restlessness in the military.

After all, seeing that he couldn't break through the beam, he didn't say the credit, but he was already guilty, and all the soldiers and generals would be angry and lose their minds.

And it was also because of this incident that when the Qin State attacked the Chu State later, whether it was when Li Xin attacked the Chu State, or after Li Xin's defeat, Wang Jian attacked the Chu State, Wang Ben did not participate.

Bai Yan thought of the situation in the Xianyang court now, Bai Yan knew that if he also suffered great damage this time, even if he had the grace of Yingzheng, it was impossible to participate in the attack on Chu State, Yingzheng agreed, and those officials in the court would oppose it.

Wooden table.

Hearing Bai Yan's words, Feng Nian and Qi were not very experienced and insightful, so they couldn't understand it, so they just frowned, feeling that it would be difficult to capture Da Liang in this way.

And Yang Yan is different, when he heard Bai Yan say this, his expression had already become solemn, and he suddenly recalled that it seemed to be the same as what Bai Yan said, and compared to Jidu, Daliang is the capital of Wei, Wei is famous for its fertile land and prosperous commerce.

"How about that?"

Yang Yan's breathing was already a little short, and he suddenly ran out of ideas, and looked at Bai Yan.

Bai Yan met Yang Yan's gaze, did not answer in a hurry, but took the brush on the wooden table, where he had just written bamboo slips, dipped it in ink, got up and walked to the map hanging on the room in the distance.

Seeing this, Yang Yan hurriedly got up and walked away, and the same was true for Feng Nian and Qi Yan.

When the three of them came behind Bai Yan, they suddenly found that Bai Yan held a pen and ink in his hand, and drew a line on the map, between the girder and the girder, and then drew a line again between the chasm and the girder.

Yang Yan looked at the focus of the two lines, both of which were connected to the girder, and on the other side, they were both !!

"Water ......"

Yang Yan's eyes lit up suddenly, and his solemn expression disappeared, replaced by excitement.

If it was Bai Yan's words, Yang Yan suddenly realized that his heart was full of fog, and he was confused about attacking the beam, then the two lines on the map at this moment were like light, breaking through all the fog in an instant, revealing all the results.

Looking at those two lines at this moment, Yang Yancai was suddenly pleasantly surprised to find that from the beginning, Wei's plan to defend the Great Liang was doomed to failure, and Wei was destined to destroy the country.

Looking at Bai Yan, Yang Yan's eyes flickered slightly, full of admiration, he didn't expect that Bai Yan already knew how to deal with Wei and how to capture Daliang in his heart.

I thought of those officials in the Xianyang Palace, as well as the bamboo slips of Fang Cai.

Yang Yan, who had rarely laughed, suddenly felt extremely funny at this moment, and couldn't help laughing, thinking that if those officials in the court learned that Bai Yan knew how to destroy the Wei State from the beginning, and was sure enough, he had already planned.

I wonder how those officials will feel!!

"This matter must not be revealed before the soldiers surround the beams!"

Bai Yan saw the 'eyes' of Feng Nian, Jue, and Yang Yan, smiled, shook his head, and then took the pen and ink to spend a few more horizontal lines on it, although no one would dare to come to the study without permission, let alone look at the map, but it is right to be careful after all.

However, even if it is revealed and let Wei know that in fact, Wei has no choice now, and all the grain and grass are brought into the beam.

"General!"

Suddenly, just as Bai Yan turned around, he saw that outside the study, Kou Zhuang looked panicked and walked into the study, his breath was full of urgency.

Bai Yan looked at Kou Zhuang's appearance and was a little puzzled.
