In the small plain, tens of thousands of cavalry slowly approached, and the rapid sound of horse hooves hit everyone's heart like dense drum beats, making people's heartbeat gradually accelerate without realizing it. After listening for a long time, you will feel a little uncomfortable.

Bai Qi narrowed his eyes and stared at the Zhao army soldiers in front of him. After a while, he slowly said: "The whole army is on guard and keep the position."

Under Bai Qi's order, hundreds of Qin army chariots were arranged into a chariot formation, like a small wall suddenly appeared in the plain, firmly protecting the entrance from the hills to the plains.

The leftists of the car picked up the longbow, the right people held the spear, and even the only task of driving had drawn out the long sword.

The atmosphere was extremely tense.

The Zhao army's cavalry was still approaching step by step, and tens of thousands of cavalry slowly came over like a tide. Standing from the perspective of the Qin army, looking around, as if the whole world in front of us was covered by the Zhao army.

Amazing momentum.

Many Qin soldiers were panicked and subconsciously turned their eyes to the head general Bai Qi.

You should know that among these hundreds of chariots, there are only more than 2,000 soldiers, and the number is at a disadvantage compared to the tens of thousands of Zhao army cavalry on the opposite side, which has further aggravated the psychological pressure of the Qin army soldiers.

Bai Qi stood there quietly without expression, like a sculpture.

Behind Bai Qi, a black "Qin" flag fluttered high, fluttering in the wind.

Will be the military courage.

Bai Qi's calmness greatly encouraged the Qin soldiers around him. They slowly calmed down, held their weapons tightly, and prepared to welcome the opponent's attack.

Three miles, two miles, one miles... the distance between the two sides is slowly getting closer.

Lian Po looked at the Qin army, who had not changed at all, and frowned.

If we get closer, the charge distance between the Longxiang cavalry will not be enough.

As a heavy armored cavalry, the necessary acceleration distance must be available, otherwise the speed will not rise and the impact force of rushing into the enemy's position will be greatly reduced.

In other words, whether to start rushing or not should make a decision at this time.

Lian Po was a little hesitant.

Now the Qin army occupied the valley entrance, and at the same time, a large number of chariots were placed in the front as barriers, which caused considerable trouble for the charge of the Zhao army's cavalry.

Moreover, because the Qin army blocked the valley entrance, Lian Po did not know what was on the road behind the valley entrance.

If Lian Po forced himself to rush, there would be no problem in taking the chariot soldier in front of him after paying a certain price.

However, according to Ying Zhao's confession just now, Bai Qi has 30,000 soldiers.

Who can guarantee that the hundreds of chariots placed by Bai Qi are not bait?

If you break through these hundreds of chariots, you will hit the ambush circle of Bai Qi's 30,000 troops...

Just imagine, tens of thousands of infantry and tens of thousands of arrows were shot in a narrow hilly road, which was simply to tie a person into a hedgehog.

Lian Po grabbed the reins of the horse, and many Zhao cavalry followed the chief general to stop the horse's hooves.

The sound of the wind, the impatient sound of war horses, and the sound of the scattered horse hooves wandering.

The atmosphere was so tense that it almost solidified.

At this distance, Lian Po could clearly see the short Qin general on the chariot of the Qin army opposite and recognize the identity of this guy.

Bai Qi.

Lian Po looked serious and stared at Bai Qi like lightning. Bai Qi's face was still calm and looked at Lian Po very calmly.

Lian Po felt hesitant in his heart.

The reason why he suddenly pressed on was that Lian Po wanted to test Bai Qi in this way.

If Bai Qi was very weak and was afraid of being completely wiped out by Lian Po, then Bai Qi should retreat under such oppression. Once Bai Qi retreated, Lian Po would immediately pursue him.

If Bai Qi wants to have a tough battle with Lian Po, then Bai Qi should move forward. If Bai Qi advances, Lian Po can do it immediately.

But Bai Qi did nothing, neither moving forward nor retreating, but just pretended to be still and firmly.

This made Lian Po a little confused about Bai Qi's plan.

Time passes by minute by minute.

Finally, Lian Po let out a long sigh and said in a deep voice: "Send the order and the entire army retreated five miles!"

Lian Po finally did not choose to attack. Even in the eyes of many Zhao army knights, the Qin army in front of him was already meat on the chopping board.

Lian Po thought it very clearly that if this was a trap, then his attack would be equivalent to ruining the army and even more ruining the overall victory of Zhao Jun.

If this is not a trap, even if the Qin army in front of him is defeated, it will only be able to kill one or two thousand people. Compared with the total number of the Qin army of 30,000 people, this is simply irrelevant.

Instead of taking this risk, it is better to firmly guard Yu Pass.

Yuguan is Lian Po’s most important goal, and it is also the real victory or defeat of this war!

The tide comes and the tide goes away.

Bai Qi stood on the chariot and could clearly hear many relieved voices around him.

This Qin general, who was pressing down on Mount Tai, had a calm expression on his face, also quietly breathed a sigh of relief at this moment.

Looking at the Zhao cavalry formation that was gradually retreating, Bai Qi thought for a while and suddenly ordered: "The whole army exits the valley entrance and sets up the formation!"

So soon, the Qin army's chariots drove out from the hilly valley road one by one, and formed a formation of battle on the plain that the Zhao army had just occupied.

Lian Po turned his head, looked at Bai Qi deeply, and snorted softly.

"No need to pay attention!"

Zhao Jun slowly contracted and returned to Yuguan again.

Bai Qi clearly observed that most of the Zhao army's cavalry entered Yu Pass, but there were about four to five thousand cavalry arranged in an array on the plains outside Yu Pass, confronting Bai Qi's hundreds of chariots in the distance.

Bai Qi's brows frowned deeply.

He knew very well what Lian Po meant. Lian Po did not want to give up the impact of the cavalry in the field. He still wanted to use the advantage of the cavalry to compete with Bai Qi.

No matter what the outcome of the battle between the two sides can gain time for the guards of Yu Pass.

Bai Qi sighed.

"Is Lian Po... I thought he was a reckless man, but I didn't expect that this seemed to be more interesting than Le Yi."

Time passed slowly, and the sun slowly set from the highest point of the sky towards the west.

Finally, the dense footsteps reached Bai Qi's ears. Bai Qi turned around and looked at the road he came, and finally saw a mighty dragon and countless black flags waving.

The remaining 20,000 main forces of the Qin army arrived.

Looking at the Qin army that kept pouring into the plain from the valley mouth, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The whole army is pressing forward, line up and prepare to go to war with the Zhao army!"

If the time was on the Qin army before Yu Pass was conquered, after Yu Pass was conquered, time had already stood on the side of Zhao State.

Before leaving, Bai Qi had checked the travel rules of the grain transport team. If it was early, today was late or tomorrow, a group of grain transport teams from Xinzheng would arrive at Yuguan.

Bai Qi must reopen the food channel as quickly as possible, otherwise the main force of the Qin army's front line would fall into the dilemma of lack of military rations.

In addition, Bai Qi also felt a little anxious in his heart.

The King of Zhao's plan was so unexpected that Bai Qi, who thought he was a master of surprise, missed the plan and was seized by Zhao Jun at Yu Pass.

Now, it was not Bai Qi who led more than 200,000 Qin and Han alliances to confront the King of Zhao on the front line, but Wei Ran, the Marquis of Rang, who seemed to have no military strategy at all.

It is true that Wei Ran is Bai Qi's Bole, but at Wei Ran's level, isn't it a treasure hunt in the toilet - looking for death?

Bai Qi felt very urgent at this moment. If he could not solve the problem here as soon as possible, he would likely have a big problem!

Under Bai Qi's order, more than 20,000 Qin infantrymen drove into the plain and began to approach Yu Pass.

The situation between the two sides began to change quietly.

Lian Po stood on the wall of Yuguan and watched all this and sneered.

"It seems that the people of Qin are also very anxious."

But no matter how much I complained, the expression on Lian Po’s face still gradually became heavier.

Ying Zhao was really right. Bai Qi really had 30,000 infantry soldiers in his hands.

It must be said that this point was indeed beyond the expectations of the senior Zhao army leaders led by Zhao He before the war began.

Zhao He and his think tanks may have guessed that the Qin army might be prepared in Zhongmu and Qifeng, but they did not expect that there were 30,000 Qin troops in the direction of Qifeng City, nor did they expect that the 30,000 Qin generals were Bai Qi, the strongest general of Qin who should have been on the front line to assist Wei Ran. They did not expect that Bai Qi's aid to Yu Pass was so timely. Less than half an hour after Lian Po conquered Yu Pass, he had already arrived at the Yu Pass front line!

You should know that in advance, even if the Qin and Han coalition forces were prepared, they would have to march outside Yuguan City at least two or three days after the fall of Yuguan.

In that case, Lian Po would have enough time to collect intelligence, rectify the city defense, and arrange a defense line that is not very good, but can at least support a three or four-day defense line.

Then, the entire war could end with the victory of the Zhao army.

But no matter how meticulous and thorough the plan is, there will be variables when implemented in detail.

Bai Qi is this biggest variable.

It can be said that it was precisely because of Bai Qi that he realized that all the extremely timely and correct actions taken incorrectly offset the impact of Lian Po's successful long-distance raid on the outcome of the war as much as possible.

At least from the current situation, Zhao Jun still cannot be said to have taken the initiative to completely control the battlefield.

Just because Bai Qi arrived two days earlier!

Now, Lian Po feels it’s very difficult.
To be continued...
